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

Chapter 251 The Power of the Eight Imperial Guards
"Your Majesty, we heard from the Blood Sea Sect that their sect leader has already gone beyond the Immortal Realm, so it's impossible for us to find out anything about him," Zhang Meng said helplessly.

Then, as if remembering something, he said, "Your Majesty, recently, many people have been saying that the Blood Sea Sect Master has established himself outside and is not coming back."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Lu Ming cautiously.

"Impossible. As long as he's alive, he'll definitely come back," Lu Ming said calmly.

But it also exuded a sense of certainty.

After all, even if the Blood Sea Sect Master had no reason to leave the Great Yu, he couldn't get rid of the golden headband on his head right now.

Unless one reaches the level of the Styx Ancestor.

However, this requires a very long process; it's not something he can achieve simply by wanting to.

After hearing Lu Ming's words, Zhang Meng didn't say anything more. He nodded and continued to escort and clear the way ahead.

Meanwhile, on the other side, within the current Asura Domain, surging waves rippled through the sea of ​​blood.

A figure was lifted up by the giant wave.

It was none other than the Blood Sea Sect Master.

After a century of refinement, he has now completely merged with the boundless sea of ​​blood.

As long as the sea of ​​blood remains, I will not die.

Blood-red hair floated in the air.

A smile appeared on his ferocious face, revealing his cultivation level at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

At this moment, the Blood Sea Sect Master's strength was terrifying.

"Ancestor, everyone is ready."

Just then, a powerful Asura warrior walked over. He was three meters tall, with dark red muscles all over his body. He had a blue face and fangs, and carried a steel fork in his hand.

A Golden Immortal, whose cultivation has reached that level, can be considered a master.

After refining the Blood Sea, the Blood Sea Ancestor made the Blood Asura clan his most loyal subordinates.

The billions of Asuras will be led by him.

At this moment, the Blood Sea Ancestor would definitely be considered a powerful figure anywhere.

Now, all we need to do is slowly digest the legacy of the Styx Ancestor.

His cultivation level can be continuously improved.

Therefore, I am preparing to return to Dayu.

Even now, despite his immense strength, he still dares not harbor any other thoughts towards Lu Ming.

Moreover, he could clearly sense that even with his current cultivation level, he might not be a match for Lu Ming from a hundred years ago.

Moreover, so many years have passed.

The other party is probably even more terrifying.

Everything she has now is thanks to Lu Ming.

Under various constraints.

Given his ruthless and vicious nature, he would dare to betray anyone, but as long as Lu Ming is around, he wouldn't dare to have any such thoughts.

"If you're ready, then leave. Remember my words? No matter how ruthless you were in the past, once you're in the territory of Dayu, you'd better behave yourselves. Anyone who dares to act recklessly..."

Don't blame me for being ruthless!

"We dare not, we will certainly obey the ancestral decree."

The Blood Sea Ancestor nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath.

In an instant, an endless sea of ​​blood flew into his mouth.

A moment later, it actually absorbed the sea of ​​blood completely.

Then, he leaped into the air, stepping on a cloud of blood.

Their target was none other than the Great Yu.

It took him about a year to come to this Asura Domain, but now that his cultivation has improved, it may not take that long.

Just as the Blood Sea Ancestor was heading to the Great Yu Dynasty.

At this time, after several days of travel, Lu Ming finally arrived at Yunlei Pass, which borders Leizhou.

Now, behind the fortress, the various armies of the Great Yu have all gathered together.

When an army of millions of men, their dense, malevolent auras intertwined.

It can even make you feel suffocated.

As soon as Lu Ming's carriage landed.

Wu Han stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, except for the Xuan Shui tribe, the armies of all other tribes have assembled. Please inspect them.”

At this moment, he was wearing a black armor with dark gold lion head shoulder guards on both shoulders, a gold line on his chest, and a gold cauldron, signifying that Wu Han was a first-rank military general of the Great Yu Dynasty and also a first-class marquis.

"There's no need for an inspection. My Great Yu is full of elite troops and generals. I have faith in your strength. Now that you've all assembled, let's prepare to send out troops."

Lu Ming is not a talkative person.

He believed that speed was of the essence in warfare.

Do not give the enemy a chance to react.

"As ordered!"

Upon receiving the order, Wu Han immediately addressed the boundless army behind him, shouting, "Move out!"

As the sound rang out, thick clouds rose up beneath their feet.

The body slowly rose into the air.

The same applies to armies numbering in the millions.

Lu Ming followed behind in a palanquin.

The army moved forward slowly.

At this moment, no one would have expected that Lu Ming would attack Leizhou.

Others believe that targeting Yuezhou is more likely.

After all, Lei Wang was a disciple of a sage, and he was still quite intimidating.

Therefore, even the other party would not have expected that Lu Ming would attack them.

Therefore, just as the army was approaching the city and near the Shenshi Pass on the border of Leizhou, the situation changed.

The generals under his command finally realized what was happening.

This is a master of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, one of the twelve bodyguards under the Thunder King.

His name was Zhang Gong, and he was skilled in using two purple-gold sky-sweeping hammers.

It is said that when he followed King Lei to subdue Leizhou, he single-handedly blocked three experts of the same realm and even killed two of them, thus becoming famous in one battle.

It is also quite well-known in the nearby state capital.

Now, seeing the arrival of the Great Yu army, they dared not hesitate.

The message was first passed on to Lei Wang.

Then, he fixed his gaze on the front, and after a moment turned to his deputy and said, "Order all soldiers to be on high alert. If the Great Yu launches an attack, hold them off for half a month at any cost."

He had just received news that if Lei Wang were to organize a large army to come, it would take at least half a month.

"General, seven of the eight imperial guards of the Great Yu have arrived. We only have a million border troops. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for half a month," the deputy general said with a grim expression.

He secretly regretted his carelessness, believing that since Lei Wang was a disciple of the sage, the Great Yu would not dare to attack him easily.

But to my surprise, the other side attacked directly.

This battle will definitely be very difficult.

The eight imperial guards of the Great Yu Dynasty were renowned.

They were not only powerful, but also well-equipped, even superior to our own border troops.

“I said, at any cost, didn’t you hear me?” Zhang Gong said coldly.

The armor plates on its body jingled in the strong wind.

It has a shimmering metallic sheen.

He possessed a supernatural power called the Great Strength Technique.

Once unleashed, its combat power increases several times over, which is why it was able to fight three opponents at once.

"Yes, sir!" The adjutant beside him dared not say another word and immediately replied.

At this moment, Zhang Gongcai nodded.

Then, his gaze continued to sweep downwards.

Just then, Lu Ming, who was standing in the air, said calmly, "Let's attack the city and finish this quickly."

He knew that it would be difficult for Lei Wang to gather enough men in a short period of time.

Therefore, as long as one's troops can be dispatched quickly enough, one can catch the enemy off guard and continuously expand the gains.

"Fire Department, kill!" Su Lie roared.

The Fire Department and the Wind Department are the offensive departments among the eight departments. They are as aggressive as fire and the most volatile. When they work together, they are extremely terrifying.

As Su Lie's voice faded, his body transformed into a towering figure thousands of feet tall. His entire body, clad in black armor, was instantly engulfed in flames.

On his left arm, a vicious dragon was coiled around him, spewing flames from its mouth.

He charged forward, wielding a short halberd in his right hand.

With each step, the ground trembled.

The fortresses ahead seemed tiny in his eyes.

"Boom!"

Behind him, the army's fire chariots were also pushed out.

This Fire Crow Chariot is a secret treasure of the Fire Department.

It's similar to a handcart, but in front of it is an iron box covered with runes, which requires two fire warriors to push.

Once the Fire Crow Chariot is activated, each chariot can release hundreds of fire crows that charge straight towards the enemy.

This is considered a rather powerful technique within the Fire element's lineage.

In the past, the Great Yu Dynasty was unable to refine it due to a lack of resources.

Now, over the past century, Lu Ming has worked diligently to increase the income and strength of the Great Yu Dynasty, which is why the Fire Crow Chariot was created.

After tens of thousands of fire crow chariots were activated.

In an instant, countless fire crows rushed towards the city wall.

Hu Fei from the Wind Department was equally unwilling to fall behind.

His body also grew to a thousand feet tall, his majestic form towering like a mountain, his steel-like arms drawing the bowstring, and a great sun slowly rising behind him, becoming Hu Fei's backdrop.

"collapse!"

As he released his hand, a feathered arrow, as tall as a pillar of heaven, shot towards the fortress.

The sharp edge emits an astonishing whistling sound as it pierces the air.

Behind them, the million-strong army raised their powerful bows in unison. Wisps of azure wind swirled around their bodies as arrows pierced the air, passing over the charging fire legion. Faint flames then rose up, enveloping the entire fortress.

At that moment, Zhang Gong's pupils contracted.

The way Da Yu attacked shocked his worldview.

I never imagined that an attack could be launched in this way.

But it's too late to say all this now.

The flaming arrows fell in an instant, suppressing the archers on the city walls who were preparing to defend against the Great Yu army.

They could only hide under the wall.

They could not effectively hinder the advancing Yu army.

Meanwhile, Su Lie had already led his army to the top of the city.

He thrust out his halberd, aiming straight for Zhang Gong's body.

"Take your life!"

A roar resounded, and a ring of fiery sonic waves actually rippled out from Su Lie's mouth.

At the same time, the short halberd emitted a thunderous sound as it slashed downwards.

The surrounding space trembled and oscillated.

Zhang Gong sensed the power of the attack and naturally dared not be careless.

In an instant, his body also transformed into a thousand feet tall, with two warhammers raised above his head.

"boom!"

The two collided, Zhang Gong staggered backward, while Su Lie continued to advance.

His attack style, like his lineage, is swift and explosive.

A short halberd smashed into Zhang Gong, leaving him almost no chance to fight back.

They can only passively defend themselves.

Even when he used his supernatural powers, it didn't have much effect.

"kill!"

Wu Han watched with envy, and at that moment he also raised the long sword in his hand.

He led the army forward.

The legions of each department naturally followed closely behind.

The forces from Leizhou were suppressed almost instantly.

Lu Ming surveyed the scene, his face expressionless.

Meanwhile, inside the Shangqing Palace, Qingxiao carefully entered her master's main hall.

"Master, Junior Brother has launched an attack on Leizhou, and it's very fierce. Seven of his eight Imperial Guards have pressed forward, and the Leizhou forces were suppressed in an instant!"

The sage of Shangqing raised an eyebrow.

"It's a bit hasty to attack Leizhou at this time. Lei Zu is a violent person. If I hadn't been punished, I wouldn't be afraid of him. But now I can only stay on this Golden Light Island."

Although he can't personally take action, and his second-generation disciples who have reached the Quasi-Saint realm probably won't participate either, there are still quite a few third-generation disciples at the Great Luo realm. If they were called over, your junior brother might have a hard time.

"I'll go help my junior brother," Qingxiao said immediately.

The Shangqing Sect has always been known for its strong sense of loyalty and righteousness.

"Yes, we should go, but not now. Wait until Lei Zu's disciples make their move before you act, so that others won't say we're bullying the weak."

However, this journey is fraught with peril, and you are destined to be involved, possibly even suffering the same fate as your fellow disciples.

Have you thought it through?

"Master, I have already made up my mind," Qingxiao said without hesitation.

In the past, she was the little princess of the Shangqing Sect. Her senior brothers doted on her, and her junior brothers indulged her.

Now, Lu Ming, the youngest junior brother, has come this far step by step without any help from anyone.

As his senior, how could I let him face all the enemies alone?

After all, Lu Ming's battle was not only for himself and for the human race, but also for the Taiqing Saint, and to fight for the other side's honor.

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, then wait until your junior brother is in danger before you take action."

You need to keep it a secret from Fuguang and Wangshu, those two little ones. Don't let them know the news, otherwise they might sneak off to the battlefield.

Their cultivation levels were still too weak; they were not suitable to accompany their father to the battlefield.

"Yes, Master!"

Qingxiao quickly responded.

The sage Shangqing nodded.

Then, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Within the Taiqing Sect, the sect leader had obviously also received the news.

At this moment, looking down at Fu Yao, he said, "Lei Zu is not someone to be trifled with. Even if he doesn't intervene, those third-generation disciples will probably not be able to hold back. Lu Ming is courting death this time, and he might even drag Qing Xiao down with him."

Just like the disciples of the Shangqing Sect back then, my junior brother was really unlucky; the disciples he found were all impulsive and reckless brutes.

Although they may have some sentimental connection, they are ultimately unlikely to achieve great things.

You can keep an eye on this matter.

"Inform me when the Great Yu has been defeated."

"Yes, ma'am!" Fu Yao replied and withdrew.

The Sect Master of Taiqing closed his eyes again and entered into ascetic cultivation.

Just as Dayu was once again attracting the attention of various forces.

At this time, the Styx Ancestor also returned to the Immortal Realm once again.

"Phew!" He let out a long breath as he felt the familiar presence.

But at that moment, a figure in the distance let out a playful laugh.

"Hey, I'm really lucky. I just arrived at the border of the Immortal Realm and I've already seen a demon. Perfect timing, I'll kill you and accumulate some merit!"

Looking over, the Blood Sea Ancestor saw a figure standing in the distance, whose cultivation had reached the Great Luo Realm.

Lightning crackled faintly from his body.

He holds a magical artifact made from thunder bamboo.

He had an air of otherworldly wisdom and detachment.

A blood-red brow twitched. "A disciple of a saint?"

The person opposite him was not modest at all. He casually took a step and said, "You do have some discernment. I am Chu Hun, a disciple of Lei Zu. If you seal your cultivation now, I can give you a chance to be reincarnated."

"Crack!"

Without further ado, the Blood Sea Ancestor unleashed his blood-red blade from his palm.

A sharp, piercing beam that seemed to reach the heavens cleaved straight toward Chu Hun.

The stench of blood filled the sky.
