Chapter 488: Continuous Advancement, Killing God with One Sword [I]

Inside the magnificent hall.

The magnificent bronze crane lampstand is emitting wisps of green smoke.

Golden pillars with coiled dragons stand tall in the middle, supporting the towering dome above.

Black curtains fell like waterfalls from both sides of the hall, embroidered with continuous cloud patterns and black bird totems in gold thread.

"Your Majesty, here is the list of countries that have come to pay tribute this time.

Some dynasties only sent envoys to congratulate, but these envoys brought valuable gifts.

The other three countries, Wei, Luo, and Su, have not sent anyone yet."

Under the Danchi.

An official lowered his head and knelt on the cold jade bricks.

He held a roll of brocade high in both hands.

On the nine-step jade platform directly in front of it, there is a black and gold dragon throne.

A figure sat upright like a pine tree, with twelve white jade beads swaying slightly, casting tiny shadows on the stern face.

He placed his hands on the golden dragon-headed armrests on both sides.

He wore a black robe embroidered with twelve emblems, the sun, the moon, the stars, mountain dragons and insects.

This person is no one else.

It is the current emperor of the Great Zhou, the contemporary emperor, Zhou Wuji.

Hear this.

Behind the tassel beads, the pair of eyes that had been closed for a long time suddenly opened.

In an instant.

A terrifying spiritual pressure that could destroy mountains and split the earth suddenly exploded.

I saw a mysterious light surging around him, and it seemed to condense into a thousand-foot-long black dragon with scary scales behind him. The dragon's whiskers fluttered angrily and it let out a long roar that shook the earth. Wherever the sound waves reached, the surrounding void became distorted.

But in the blink of an eye.

All the abnormalities disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.

next second.

The roll of brocade in the official's hand seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and flew directly in front of Zhou Wu Ji and spread out.

He scanned the names above.

puff!
A ball of fire ignited on the brocade and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

“It seems some people are tired of living.

After the Crown Prince chooses his concubine, he will send people to destroy the three kingdoms of Wei, Luo, and Su!"

Zhou Wuji's tone was flat.

It was as if they were talking about what to eat next.

But when the officials below heard it, they couldn't help but tremble.

Cold sweat was oozing out of my back.

Because he knew the bloodiness hidden behind this sentence, and he was afraid that countless people would lose their heads for it.

but.

Those three dynasties actually dared to ignore the edict of the Great Zhou. They deserved to die.

……

At three quarters past the hour of You, the lights begin to come on.

After the evening drum sounded three times, the Vermillion Bird Gate slowly opened.

Hundreds of golden-armored guards held weapons on both sides of the imperial road, looking solemn.

There were already a constant stream of carriages and horses outside the Suzaku Gate in the imperial city.

The envoys from various countries lined up in a long queue and slowly entered the palace gate under the guidance of officials from the Ministry of Rites.

"Liang Country has arrived--!"

As the eunuch called out the names in a shrill voice, a gilded carriage pulled by four snow-white horses slowly drove into the palace gate.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and the King of Liang walked down slowly with the Queen and the Princess.

The princess was wearing a fiery red silk dress and had an exquisite dagger at her waist, as bright as peach blossoms in March.

At the same time, there was a commotion somewhere else.

Thirty-six maids in colorful clothes holding peacock feather fans led the way, and in the middle was an emerald green sedan chair decorated with jade and pearls.

The curtain of the sedan chair moved slightly, and the first thing that emerged was a jade-white wrist with a small green snake wrapped around it.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

As the name of the audience was called out, a young girl in a peacock blue dress walked out.

There was a dot of cinnabar between her eyebrows, her eyes were deep, and various jewels and thin snakes were wrapped around her neck and wrists. With every step she took, the silver bell on her waist made a crisp sound.

The officials around unconsciously took a half step back, but could not help but take a few more glances at this exotic beauty.

Princesses from various countries gathered here, all of them were beautiful and graceful.

They are either charming and attractive, or pure and elegant, or holy and noble.

Even the princes and ministers who were used to the world in the court could not help but be fascinated by these beauties, and their eyes lingered among the princesses.

But they also know it.

If nothing unexpected happens, these will be the prince's future concubines.

Therefore, I dare not look too directly at it.

Afraid of causing displeasure to that person.

Think about this.

Everyone couldn't help but look to the side.

There was a figure sitting there, it was none other than the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Princess Wu of Zhou.

And below him, in the chief position, sat a young man.

This person is none other than the crown prince of their Great Zhou, Zhou Yi.

He is now wearing a moon-white dragon robe, a jade crown to tie his hair up, his face is handsome, and his eyebrows are like lacquer.

At first glance, it does have a scholarly air.

However, these officials knew.

The other party was able to stand out among many princes. This new prince is definitely not as simple as he seems.

If you really look down on others because of their age, you may die without knowing how.

Zhou Yi, or to be more precise, Han Yun.

She was not at all nervous about the gazes from the princesses of various countries.

Instead, he raised a faint smile.

Coupled with his handsome face, the girls who were secretly watching him felt their heartbeats quicken and their faces flushed.

She began to feel favorable towards her future husband and was no longer as repulsive as before.

See this scene.

Han Yun's smile widened.

Humans are visual animals. His appearance is not bad and can give people the most intuitive and good impression.

Of course, if that were all.

It was simply not enough to win the hearts of these noble princesses.

The most important of these is the career path of "King of People" in employment.

This path has a special bonus called Personality.

Not only can he win the hearts of women, but even men will involuntarily be willing to be loyal to him when they see him.

After all, the 'Human King' is destined not to be alone.

Moreover, the immortal way he practiced had reached the level of true god, and his use of power was far beyond that of ordinary professionals.

The combination of these three advantages has created such an effect.

-

"Li Kingdom has arrived——!"

At this time.

Another carriage was moving forward.

Almost everyone looked over there.

The reason why.

Because Li State is different from others.

It is one of the forty-nine dynasties ruled by the four strongest people in order.

It is not comparable to those ordinary dynasties.

Under the gaze of everyone.

Hu Qi walked down from the carriage.

However, what surprised everyone was that there was only one person on the other side.

After seeing this scene.

Everyone looked a little strange.

Other dynasties usually had a dozen people.

At least there will be two guards.

But the other party came alone and did not even bring his daughter.

You have to know that this time the purpose is to select a concubine for the prince.

By doing this, isn't the other party afraid of incurring the wrath of the Zhou Emperor?

For a while.

Everyone looked at Hu Qi with a hint of gloating.

Han Yun's eyes paused.

Staring at Hu Qi.

Apparently he recognized the identity of its manager.

These are the rules of Samsara Bookstore.

No matter how they disguise themselves, they can recognize each other's identities as soon as they see each other.

Regarding the fact that there are managers coming to the imperial city.

He already knew about it through the notification from the book spirit.

In fact, he had thought that the person might be hiding in the ranks of these other dynasties.

The facts were not beyond his expectations.

But... What shocked him was...

The person who came was neither Suta nor the puppeteer.

But it was the newly promoted Manager No. 4 who he believed was long dead.

But how is this possible?

Could it be that Suta was unlucky enough to run into a puppeteer and get killed? !

Thinking of this, his eyes became uncertain for a moment.

"what happened?"

At this time.

A voice sounded in his ears.

Turn around and look.

It was Zhou Wu Ji, his father in this physical body.

The abnormality just now was obviously noticed by the other party.

"Your Majesty, I just feel strange.

The Li Kingdom only sent one person this time. Is it because they don't want the princess to marry far away, or is it intentionally disrespecting and not taking our Great Zhou seriously?"

Han Yun replied in a deep voice.

No matter what, if the other party comes here, he must kill him.

However, as far as he knew, the body occupied by the other party was named Chen Cang, and he was a real Sequence 4 professional.

Although I don’t know whether the other party is the real Chen Cang or just a disguise.

But given his identity, there is no need to confront him head-on. He only needs to use some means to kill him with a borrowed knife.

And right now, there is just such an opportunity.

Hear the words.

Zhou Wuji frowned slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.

Look at Hu Qi in the distance.

"Chen Cang, why did you come here alone?"

"Replying to Emperor Zhou, my daughter is already engaged. I came here specifically to make amends!"

Hu Qi sighed.

He reached into his bosom and pulled out a brocade box.

"This is a treasure I found by chance in a secret place, and I brought it here to present to King Zhou!"

Zhou Wuji's eyes moved slightly.

If that's the case, it's not a big problem.

Anyway, Yier's advancement ceremony only requires a hundred women.

However, this also depends on what the treasure the other party is talking about.

If the value is enough, it's fine. If not, he doesn't mind taking action to let the other party know the consequences of violating the imperial edict.

After all, if it weren't for the path to becoming the 'Human King', he would never have left these dynasties to establish his own.

These guys are disobedient, so he doesn't mind replacing them with a new batch.

A eunuch stepped forward, bowed, took the brocade box with both hands, and carefully presented it to Zhou Wuji.

He reached out and opened the gilded lock, and the brocade box opened with a click.

In an instant, the eyes of people around were focused on him.

Everyone wants to see what kind of treasure it is.

In the brocade box, a fist-sized silver bead lay quietly on the bright yellow silk, with a hazy moonlight-like halo flowing on its surface.

“What is this?”

Zhou Wuji frowned slightly and reached out to pick it up.

The object looked extraordinary, smooth as a mirror and glowing with light.

However, he did not sense any spiritual fluctuations from it.

On the side, Han Yun frowned slightly as he watched this scene.

For some reason, a bad feeling arose in my heart.

Think of this.

He looked down at Hu Qi.

Coincidentally.

Hu Qi was also looking at this moment.

A gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I'll name this thing God-killing Tsar 2.0, and it can send you all to heaven together!"

The moment the words fell.

There was no chance for anyone to react.

The surface of the silver bead held in Zhou Wuji's hand suddenly cracked, and terrifying beams of bright white light burst out.

"Huh?! How dare you!"

Zhou Wuji's expression changed.

Black chains emerged from the palm of his hand and instantly wrapped around the silver ball in his hand.

At the same time, he raised his other hand, revealing a giant claw that grabbed directly towards Hu Qi.

only.

What he didn't expect was.

The attack had not yet touched Hu Qi.

Hu Qi's body exploded directly.

And from his flesh and blood body, more than a dozen silver-white beads rolled out.

See this scene.

Zhou Wuji's face jumped for a moment.

hum!
This moment.

It was as if millions of noon suns exploded on the ground, and the dazzling light spread and engulfed the entire imperial capital in an instant.

The sky and the earth suddenly lost their color and turned into a pure white purgatory.

All colors lose their meaning in front of this light.

The light was too pure and too violent, even the shadows were completely wiped out.

What followed was a buzzing sound that was enough to tear the soul apart.

The air twisted in the high temperature and turned into transparent ripples, and the moment the ripples passed by, everything turned into powder.

"No!"

Han Yun's eyes were bloodshot.

But it was too late to escape.

At this moment, the body was dissolved by the terrifying high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius and turned into something finer than dust.

This was the case with everyone around me.

No one was spared.

All the flesh, blood, bones, weapons, buildings, everything vaporized within a billionth of a second.

There were no screams, no struggles, only the most complete annihilation.

The next moment, a white beam of light with a diameter of several miles shot up into the sky, piercing through heaven and earth like a sword of divine punishment.

The sky was split open, the dark sky collapsed, and the earth and heaven continued to tremble.

The world lost its color at this moment, leaving only pure white, extremely bright, as if time itself was frozen by this light.

——Then, there is the sound.

Bang! !

The long-awaited loud noise finally broke out, like billions of thunders exploding at the same time.

The earth cracked in wailing, the mountains collapsed in the shock, and the shock wave turned into a destructive hurricane, flattening everything within tens of thousands of miles.

After an unknown amount of time, the light finally dissipated.

The imperial capital disappeared.

No, not only the imperial capital, but also the land that supported the imperial capital disappeared.

All that was left was a bottomless pit with mirror-like walls, which were traces left after the rock was instantly vaporized.

And above the sky, a pitch-black hole suddenly appeared, the atmosphere was completely evaporated, revealing the cold starry sky behind it.

The stars twinkle silently in it.

The wind stopped.

The clouds cleared.

Even the sound disappeared.

Here, there is only nothingness.

--Roar! ! !

Suddenly, the next moment.

A huge dragon roar that shook the sky and the earth suddenly rang out.

However, in addition to anger, there was also a hint of fear in this voice.

next second.

The imperial capital of the Zhou Dynasty is located in a huge deep pit.

A black dragon head ten thousand feet in size emerged.

This is not the giant dragon from the Western Continent, but a real dragon with deer horns, an ox head, and covered with snake scales.

At this moment, the dragon's body appeared translucent and illusory, as if condensed from hazy mist.

And in the very center, a tattered figure was suspended.

It was none other than the Emperor of the Great Zhou, a demigod with strength reaching Sequence Three, Zhou Wu Ji.

Compared with his powerful appearance in the past, he is now completely unrecognizable.

Most of the body was almost completely destroyed, with only half of the head barely maintaining its complete outline, and the rest of the body had turned into eerie bones.

However, the skeleton was not the usual pale color, but a strange black color, as if it was carved from black jade.

There is a dark luster flowing on the surface, as if it can even swallow up the light.

now.

His only remaining eye was fixed on a certain direction in the distance.
