Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 221 Dragnet
"Boom!" A booming sound rang out from inside Lu Ming's body.

Within his meridians, powerful magical energy spread outwards like surging waves.

The body's meridians are filled with vast energy.

A moment later, he broke through, and his cultivation reached the True Immortal Realm, although he was only at the early stage of True Immortal.

But for Lu Ming...

But it was a big step forward.

Even a Xuanxian could be suppressed.

Then, they walked outside.

"Boom!"

After the door to the secret room is opened.

A ray of sunlight shone on his cheek.

This made Lu Ming feel a warmth spread through his body.

The female official in green robes was guarding outside. When she saw Lu Ming emerge from the pass, a look of joy appeared on her face.

He quickly stepped forward and said, "Congratulations on Your Majesty's great improvement in cultivation."

She could clearly sense that Lu Ming's aura was stronger than before.

"Don't be so polite. Has something happened recently?"

The moment he opened the door, he saw the female official in blue's face first show anxiety, then turn to surprise.

Something is clearly going on.

"Your Majesty, we are fine. It is Shiyu City that has been attacked by Qingyan City. I heard that the fighting is quite fierce. Although the city lord of Shiyu City has blocked the attack, he has also suffered considerable losses."

The female official in green naturally knew.

The Great Yu Kingdom once received help from Shi Yu City.

Moreover, Lu Ming had a good relationship with the city lord.

Lu Ming raised an eyebrow at this moment.

Since Shi Yucheng was busy, he certainly couldn't just stand by and watch.

After a moment of contemplation, he asked, "How has the strength of my Great Yu been in the past six months?"

"Your Majesty, they have been cultivating in the secret realm and have made great progress. They should have all reached the Feather Transformation Realm. The strength of the Six Legions has also improved significantly, breaking through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm."

The city guards in various places are all in the Divine Power Realm.

The cultivation levels of all the generals have been raised to the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm.

General Lü Peng has already entered the Xuanxian realm.

The number of worshippers in the True Immortal Realm reached around two hundred, of whom about forty were at the peak of the True Immortal Realm.

The female official in green said cautiously.

Lu Ming knew it from her voice.

No one has had a break in the past six months.

In that case, dealing with Qingyan City should not be a problem.

"Pass down the order: command Wu Han, Zhang Mu, Wang Yue, and Lu Shi to advance towards Qingyan City, with Yu Kun leading the city guards to provide support from the rear, and to capture Qingyan City."

Su Lie and Hu Fei, along with the Li Huo and Xun Feng tribes, will accompany me to Shi Yu City.

"As ordered!"

Upon receiving the order, the female official in blue immediately withdrew.

Lu Ming went to the inner palace to say goodbye to his two wives.

This battle may take a long time, so he cannot be careless.

Inside the Donghuang Palace, Li Xirou and the others were tidying up the children's clothes.

There are so many of them.

Both women smiled as they looked at the clothes.

When Lu Ming walked in.

Their eyes turned to each other.

"My husband has emerged from the pass."

Li Xirou said happily.

As she approached, a fragrant breeze wafted towards us.

Yu Muyun put down the clothes and asked, "Are you going out again?"

She was the first to know that Shi Yucheng had been attacked.

Therefore, it was obvious that Lu Ming wouldn't ignore it.

After all, a hundred billion spirit stones was a huge favor back then.

"Yes, you all know about what happened in Shiyu City, right? This time, Qingyan City's attack was extremely fierce, and they probably are no match for them."

“Okay!” Li Xirou nodded.

But a look of reluctance appeared in her eyes.

Since arriving in the Immortal Realm, it's been like going back to the past, with battles never stopping.

Every time I see Lu Ming going to war, I can't help but feel sad.

"I know, don't worry, I'll be fine. You all just need to take care of yourselves."

Lu Ming said slowly.

After giving them some instructions, he turned and left.

When they arrived outside the palace, Zhang Meng and Lü Peng were already waiting.

Zhang Meng's cultivation had broken through to the Celestial Immortal Realm, and a fierce aura emanated from his body.

Although his cultivation level was not high, he was a seasoned veteran in the army.

In every major battle, he only suffered minor injuries.

This time, his main purpose was to assess Lü Peng's strength.

He broke through to the Profound Immortal Realm, which is almost the same as the City Lord of Qingyan City.

If we upgrade him, sending him to oversee a city shouldn't be a big problem.

"I have met His Majesty!"

At this moment, Zhang Meng and his companion also came over and greeted them respectfully.

Looking at them, Lu Ming nodded and said, "No need for formalities, let's get ready to go."

Then, they headed towards the location of the teleportation array.

After the spirit stones are placed.

The group disappeared from their spot and reappeared at Black Mountain Pass.

Wu Han and his men did not appear; they must have already set out for Qingyan City.

However, Su Lie and his group had already arrived.

Millions of soldiers gathered together.

When the auras emanating from their bodies intertwine.

It makes you feel suffocated.

"Let's go!" Before they could pay their respects, the carriage beneath Lu Ming's feet appeared, and he said calmly.

When the command is issued.

It had already soared into the sky. On the chariot, nine dragons roared.

Soldiers from the Royal Guard followed him.

Behind them were the troops.

Clouds rolled around beneath my feet.

It was pitch black, and many independent cultivators were taken aback by the scene.

They all retreated.

Especially after seeing the large banners in the army, and knowing that they belonged to the Dayu army, they dared not approach.

Although the Beidou Domain has just been connected to the Immortal Domain.

However, Da Yu's reputation is not weak in Donglin Prefecture.

In a short period of time, they captured two cities.

Many people suspected that the other party was going somewhere.

"Should we follow them and see what happens?"

One of the rogue cultivators asked his companion.

As soon as he finished speaking...

The others immediately nodded in agreement.

"Then let's go and take a look."

Then, at that moment, they rode away on the clouds.

They followed the army of Dayu from a distance.

At the same time, City Lord Shiyu was meditating in the hall.

Yesterday she fought against the Lord of Qingyan City, and although she did not lose, she managed to hold off his opponent.

However, his magical power was also slightly disordered.

It made her blood and qi churn uncontrollably.

Although she could barely fight opponents of higher levels, since she cultivated a top-tier technique, she was ultimately not a combat-oriented fighter. Gaining the upper hand or even suppressing them was still somewhat impossible.

If the stalemate continues...

The entire Stone Rain City is probably in danger.

"call!"

He exhaled a long breath of stale air after finishing his cultivation.

"Tap!"

At this moment, A-Tong, dressed in a silver body armor, walked in. "City Lord, the people of Qingyan City have completely surrounded us and announced that they will launch an attack in three days."

When the sound rang out.

A hint of worry was evident.

If a large-scale attack were to occur, Shiyu City's current strength would likely be insufficient to withstand it.

The main point is that after breaking through, the Lord of Qingyan City also subdued a rogue cultivator in the late stage of True Immortal.

Overall, both in terms of the number of experts and the size of their army, they are a cut above Shi Yucheng.

"Get out of the way! All of you get out of the way! We want to see the city lord!"

Just then, a commotion arose outside.

Then, three figures walked in.

These are the three deputy city lords of Shiyu City, all of whom are at the mid-stage of True Immortal cultivation.

At this moment, looking at City Lord Shiyu, he no longer showed the respect he once had, but instead exuded indifference.

"What are you doing?!"

A-Tong stood to the side and said coldly.

"Get out of here! You, a junior, have no place to speak here!" A tall, bearded deputy city lord stepped forward and said.

Then, glancing at City Lord Shiyu, he continued, "City Lord, Qingyan City is now under siege, completely surrounding us. They have already offered terms: if we surrender, they will release us all."

Why are we still resisting? Is it because the city lord is greedy for power and unwilling to relinquish it, instead forcing us to fight to the death?

“Vice City Lord Mo, if I remember correctly, you seem to have a good relationship with City Lord Qingyan. Did he promise you something, which is why you stood up at this time to speak for the enemy?”

Don't forget, it was I who took you in when you were being chased.

We've been supplying you with hundreds of millions of immortal crystals every year, just so you'd turn against us at this crucial moment?

The city lord of Shiyu City said solemnly.

The smiles of the past are gone.

"City Lord, don't make false accusations. Who has a good relationship with City Lord Qingyan? I'm just worried about the people of the city."

"Yes, Lord City Lord, if this fight continues, we should at least get an explanation."

The other deputy city lords also spoke up.

The City Lord of Shiyu City turned his gaze to them.

"An explanation? When Stone Rain City was built, did you contribute anything? When you arrived, the city was already built and even fully completed. Now you come out and expect me to give you an explanation."

"Alright, I'll explain. If you don't want to be the deputy city lord of Stone Rain City, you can leave now."

Her aura emanates from her body as she speaks.

He was quickly covered in a set of silver armor, and a spear appeared in his hand.

The golden hue was particularly dazzling in the hall.

As the weapon appeared in his palm.

A sharp, piercing aura filled the hall.

It makes your body involuntarily retreat.

Meanwhile, in the city lord's mansion, tensions were running high.

At this moment, Lu Ming had already led his army and appeared in the distance from Stone Rain City.

He stared at the scene before him.

A look of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

The entire city was completely surrounded by a large army, making it impassable.

The warriors of Qingyan City were all clad in blue armor.

He was carrying a weapon.

The leader, the City Lord of Qingyan, was a middle-aged man who looked down at Shiyu City from his chariot, a calm expression in his eyes.

He clearly considered the entire city as his own, his eyes brimming with absolute confidence.

Lu Ming gazed down, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Attack from the rear, break through Qingyan City's ranks, set up the Heavenly Net Formation, and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

A calm voice rang out.

Su Lie, who was standing to the side, immediately replied, "Yes, sir!"

They haven't used the Heavenly Net Formation since they mastered it.

Their skills are undeniable; this is a good opportunity to give them a try.

Then, Su Lie began to wave the command flag in his hand.

The next moment, the army behind them began to change formation.
