The First Marquis of Daxuan

"Damn it, how can Su Mu be so strong? Even three peak Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beasts couldn't kill him?"

Cha Haishan looked across the vast army at the battlefield where Su Mu was fighting three peak-level Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beasts. His face was contorted with rage, and he gritted his teeth inwardly.

He gave orders, causing the Void Beasts to intensify their attack.

Three peak-level Void Beasts of the Heavenly Fate Realm couldn't kill Su Mu. Fortunately, on the army side, his Void Beast army held a steady advantage.

As long as those three peak-level Void Beasts can hold off Su Mu, and he eliminates all these annoying ants, then the million-strong Void Beast army will swarm him, and each one of them could drown Su Mu with a single spit!
With a command from Cha Haishan, all the Void Beasts charged forward furiously.

The armies of Da Xuan tried their best to resist, but they could not stop the retreat.

People kept falling, and their defenses retreated step by step.

far away.

The "reinforcements" from the Taixu Sacred Realm naturally witnessed this scene as well.

Seeing large numbers of Da Xuan soldiers fall, some finally couldn't bear it.

"They are, after all, members of our human race. Are we just going to stand by and watch them be bullied by the Void Beasts?"

One of the martial artists couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Some remained silent, while others lowered their heads in shame.

Fu Canglan, Wu Zu, Yang Hong, and the others also showed a hint of unease on their faces.

From a profit perspective, it would be best for them to make their move after the entire Da Xuan army has been wiped out.

But when you actually face this, it's hard not to feel any emotional turmoil.

"never mind."

The Martial Ancestor suddenly spoke up, "Even if we are to defeat Su Mu, this sect will win fair and square."

Before he finished speaking, he had already taken a step forward.

"Disciples of the Martial Sect, heed my command."

The Martial Ancestor raised his voice, "Kill the Ruins Beast!"

"Order!"

The disciples of the Martial Sect shouted in unison.

It's too late, but it's soon.

The Martial Ancestor has already arrived on the battlefield.

Rumble!
As soon as he made his move, dozens of Void Beasts were sent flying backward.

Those Void Beasts at the Heavenly Profound Realm or even the initial stage of the Heavenly Fate Realm couldn't even withstand a single attack from the Martial Ancestor.

Seeing this, Cha Haishan's eyelids twitched in the distance, and he almost ground his steel teeth to powder.

As the eldest disciple of the Martial Ancestor, he naturally knew the Martial Ancestor's strength better than anyone else.

In a one-on-one fight, almost no Void Beast here is a match for the Martial Ancestor.

The three peak-level Void Beasts of the Heavenly Fate Realm that he had finally managed to invite had already gone to deal with Su Mu. Now, who else could deal with the Martial Ancestor?
Before Cha Haishan could figure out how to deal with it, the disciples of the Martial Ancestor had already charged into the army.

Seeing Wu Zong join the battle, Fu Canglan, Yang Hong, and the others sighed inwardly.

Now that Wu Zong has made his move, Da Xuan will certainly not be completely wiped out.

If they stand idly by at this point, not only will they fail to achieve their desired outcome, but they will also appear petty.

"Everyone, let's make a move."

Fu Canglan said.

With the addition of sects like the Azure Sky Sect and the True Saint Sect to the battlefield, the situation instantly reversed.

Although the power of the Void Realm is strong, Cha Haishan is ultimately just a fox borrowing the tiger's power, and the number of Void Beasts he can mobilize is limited.

Dealing with a great Xuan Dynasty is certainly no problem, but when it comes to the power of the entire Yang Realm, it is far inferior.

Seeing his army crumble like a house of cards, Cha Haishan knew that all was lost.

He gritted his teeth and glared at Su Mu and Wu Zu with hatred.

Then he turned and flew towards the Ruins Realm.

He and Wu Zu had a deep-seated hatred between them. If Wu Zu caught him, he would surely die.

The war continued, but the commander-in-chief fled first.

Noticing the various sects of the Taixu Sacred Realm making their moves, Su Mu, who had been watching the battlefield closely, breathed a sigh of relief.

He was entangled by three Void Beasts at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm and could not free up his hands to rescue the people of Da Xuan. Originally, he was thinking of some way to provoke Fu Canglan and Wu Zu, but he did not expect that they still had some conscience.

Now that the crisis for the people of Da Xuan has been completely resolved, he can finally relax and focus all his efforts on dealing with these three Void Beasts at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm.

"You want the Five Elements Mountain? I'll give it to you."

A fierce look flashed across Su Mu's face as he swung all six arms simultaneously.

A dazzling light flashed, and then a majestic mountain descended from the sky with a thunderous crash.

The three Void Beasts at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm were greatly alarmed and scattered to avoid them.

There was a bang.

Two peak-stage Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beasts managed to dodge, but one was unable to escape and was directly smashed to the ground by the Five Elements Mountain.

The Five Elements Mountain trembled for a moment, then fell completely still.

It's unclear whether the Void Beast it suppressed had run out of strength or had simply stopped breathing.

The remaining two Void Beasts at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm were filled with horror, their confidence and arrogance from before the journey gone.

Especially after they saw Cha Haishan desert his post and the Void Beast army suffer a crushing defeat.

Their fighting spirit vanished instantly.

With a scream, the two peak-stage Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beasts turned and ran, trying to escape back to the Void Realm.

"Since you're already here, why rush to leave?"

Su Mu sneered, and with a sway of his body, he had already stopped a Void Beast.

His full power erupted, instantly forcing the Void Beast to retreat repeatedly.

Previously, when he was fighting three against one, he was still able to fight the three-headed Void Beast to a standstill.

Now, in a one-on-one fight, how could that Void Beast be his match?
As for the companions of that Void Beast, they had absolutely no intention of staying to help it.

The trapped beast fought desperately, roaring continuously as it battled Su Mu.

The sound of clashing energies echoed in the air.

Their movements are barely perceptible to the naked eye.

But anyone could see that the Void Beast was merely struggling in its death throes.

Su Mu's strength steadily suppressed it.

On the other side, Wu Zu had already confronted the fleeing peak Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beast, and before Fu Canglan and Yang Hong could, he had engaged the peak Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beast in battle.

The battle was intense from the very beginning.

Wu Zu was eager to show off his skills, so he immediately used the Hunyuan Golden Body. With the blessing of the Law of Heaven and Earth, he also forced the Void Beast to retreat step by step.

While Fu Canglan, Yang Hong, and the others were effortlessly eliminating the participating Void Beasts, they were also keeping an eye on the battle between Wu Zu and Su Mu.

They had all realized that the Martial Ancestor was putting himself to the test.

He wanted to kill the Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm before Su Mu could.

But how easy is it to kill a Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm?

That's when.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

Su Mu's aura surged, and the world changed color in an instant.

The expressions of all the powerful figures changed.

Fu Canglan, Yang Hong, and the others' expressions became extremely solemn.

"He has broken through."

Fu Canglan muttered to himself.

"Isn't Su Mu's cultivation already at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm? If he breaks through again, won't he be at the Heavenly Venerable Realm?"

Has he become a Celestial Venerable?

"That's not right. Bai Tianzun is still alive, so where is his rank? How can he become a Heavenly Venerable without a rank?"

Everyone wore expressions of shock and confusion, completely unaware of what had happened.

"It's true that he is at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm, but his breakthrough was not to the Heavenly Venerable Realm. Rather, he took another step forward on his original foundation."

Yang Hong said with a solemn expression, "Haven't you heard? If you master the Eighth or Ninth Mysterious Technique, you can even fight against a Celestial Venerable."

He has now reached that level.

"With the cultivation of the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm, he can fight against a Heavenly Venerable? Is he even human?"

The crowd muttered.

"It's just a battle with the Celestial Venerable, not a battle that can be won against him."

Yang Hong sneered, "I can also fight against the Heavenly Venerable."

I'll be a corpse after just one or two moves.

Yang Hong added in his mind, "But who says that one or two moves doesn't count as a battle?"

A flicker of envy, jealousy, and hatred flashed deep in Yang Hong's eyes.

Su Mu had ruined his True Martial Sect's plans, and he had always wanted to kill Su Mu.

Now, he was genuinely jealous of Su Mu's strength.

With the Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques at its peak, one can even fight against the Heavenly Venerable.

This kind of Heavenly Venerable can fight, unlike him who can only last one or two moves against a Heavenly Venerable. He can actually fight a Heavenly Venerable for several rounds!
The realm that countless people dream of, Su Mu actually reached in battle with such ease!

Why wasn't it Yang Hong who accomplished all of this?
"This Void Beast is going to die."

Fu Canglan sighed, it was unclear whether he was lamenting the death of the Void Beast or the improvement in Su Mu's strength.

Before Fu Canglan could finish speaking, Su Mu's hand suddenly shone brightly.

Swish!
The head of the beast that was fighting him flew high into the air, and a stenchy column of blood shot into the sky.

This sudden scene left everyone present dumbfounded.

Even when Su Mu used the Five Elements Mountain to suppress a Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm, it was not as shocking as what he was experiencing now.

A Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm was beheaded and displayed like this?
If Su Mu can kill a Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm, does that also mean that he can kill a human at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm?

Wouldn't Fu Canglan, Wu Zu, Yang Hong, and others all be no match for Su Mu?

By the way, Su Mu previously held the position of Yang Lord in the True Saint Sect.

For a time, everyone had different thoughts.

"Sect Master Wu, do you need any help?"

At this moment, Su Mu had already collected the corpse of the Void Beast, stepped into the air, and arrived not far from the Martial Ancestor. He looked at the Void Beast that was fighting with the Martial Ancestor and said.

It was Martial Ancestor who made the first move and rescued everyone in Da Xuan.

Su Mu owed him a favor.

"unnecessary."

Without even raising his head, Wu Zu's movements became even faster.

Su Mu did not force his way out, but instead turned around and joined Fu Canglan and the others to begin clearing out the remaining Void Beasts.

After Cha Haishan deserted his post, the million-strong army of Void Beasts was completely routed, with some dying and others fleeing.

By the time Su Mu killed the peak Heavenly Fate Realm Void Beast, only a few hundred Void Beasts remained on the battlefield.

Under the combined attack of the group, the hundreds of Void Beasts were quickly wiped out. Then everyone surrounded the Martial Ancestor and the Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm, becoming spectators.

Fu Canglan couldn't help but glance at Su Mu. He noticed that no matter what the matter was, things would become a bit strange whenever Su Mu was involved.

They, from the Taixu Sacred Realm, were clearly here to support the Great Xuan Dynasty.

Why does it feel like Wu Zu has become the main force now?

The people of the Great Xuan Dynasty became spectators, watching the Martial Ancestor fight against the Ruins Beast.

How did things develop to this point?
Fu Canglan was completely baffled.

Surrounded by onlookers, the Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm panicked, while the Martial Ancestor erupted in shame and anger.

After dozens of moves, Wu Zu finally seized an opportunity and smashed the head of the Void Beast to pieces with a single punch.

The Martial Ancestor put away the Law of Heaven and Earth, slightly out of breath.

Compared to Su Mu's nonchalant demeanor, Wu Zu appeared somewhat disheveled.

But no one will underestimate the Martial Ancestor.

That's a Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm!

How many people in the world can kill a peak Heavenly Fate Realm expert?
Even Fu Canglan, the sect master of the Cangqiong Sect, has never killed a peak Heavenly Fate Realm expert.

The Martial Ancestor is only slightly out of breath and has killed a Void Beast at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm without being injured. Such a feat is quite remarkable anywhere.

only--

But there's an even more perverted being here.

Everyone instinctively looked at Su Mu.

Su Mu's gaze swept over everyone.

Having temporarily routed the Void Beast army, it's time to divide up the spoils.

Now that Fu Canglan, Wu Zu, Yang Hong and the others have come, let's not go back. We need them to attack the Void Realm.

"Esteemed sect leaders, you have come from afar and have had a long journey. On behalf of the Great Xuan Dynasty, I, Su, thank you all."

Su Mu spoke slowly.

"Su Mu, stop with the nonsense."

A martial artist shouted, "The Void Beast has retreated. Next, we should discuss how to establish our own territories."

Back then, the seventy-two bandits divided the outer realm, causing the once prosperous Yang Realm to split into the Taixu Sacred Realm and the outer realm. Now, the two places have been merged into one, and the Yang Realm has returned to its wholeness.

"Now that this vast territory has been recovered, it's important to clarify its ownership."

The speaker was an ordinary martial artist who was shouting loudly, but neither Fu Canglan, Yang Hong, nor even the Martial Ancestor interrupted him.

Su Mu glanced at the martial artist, then at Fu Canglan and the others, a faint smile always on his face.

"So, do you all think that the place originally called the Outer Realms needs to be redistributed?"

Su Mu said with a half-smile.

"That's natural."

Yang Hong smiled coldly and said, "The Yang Realm is an orderly place. Although the Lord of Yang is not yet determined, the order still exists."

This territory of the Yang Realm is 90% occupied by the Taixu Sacred Realm and only 10% by the Outer Domains, so naturally it should be governed by the original rules of the Taixu Sacred Realm.

"Su Mu, don't say we're bullying you."

Fu Canglan also spoke up, "The territory belonging to your Great Xuan Dynasty will temporarily belong to your Great Xuan Dynasty, but we will send people to garrison the outer regions outside of the Great Xuan Dynasty."

This is also for the purpose of jointly resisting the Ruins Realm.

Everyone chimed in, each speaking with righteous indignation.

After everyone finished speaking, Su Mu suddenly burst into laughter.

"I thought you were all from prominent families, with considerable strength and extensive knowledge."

Su Mu said, "I never expected that you would be so short-sighted."

You're already fighting and scrambling over such a small place as the Outer Realms.

"I'm not saying this to be mean, but even if you managed to seize this tiny place, what use would it be?"

“Su Mu, you don’t need to be sarcastic. We’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice. You’re dreaming if you think you can motivate us to give up this way.”

Yang Hong sneered.

"You're wrong again."

Su Mu shook his head. "I'm not trying to provoke you to give up. I just think your vision is too narrow."

If you want to divide up the territory, why not broaden your horizons?
Don't you know that the area of ​​the Void Realm is no smaller than that of the Yang Realm? If you want territory, the Void Realm has plenty. As long as you have the ability, you can have as much as you want!

"The Ruins Realm?"

Yang Hong sneered repeatedly, "Do you think we're as ignorant as you?"

Ordinary people know the difference between fertile land and barren soil. The land in the Ruins Realm is simply unsuitable for martial artists to live on, so what use is it?

"Since Sect Leader Yang is so learned, don't you know that there is a method in this world to transform Yin into Yang, which can transform the Void Realm into a place that is no different from the Yang Realm?"

Su Mu said.

"Think about it, everyone. The outer realm is a tiny place. If you divide it among your many families, you will only get a thousand miles at most. But if you can invade the Void Realm, you can easily occupy ten thousand miles. What you gain will be more than ten times the original amount."
The larger the territory, the greater the resources, the larger the population, the more disciples can be recruited, and the greater the sect's power.

Su Mu spoke slowly, his tone full of allure.

"As for what Sect Master Yang said about the Ruins Realm being unsuitable for human martial artists to live in, this problem is actually quite easy to solve."

To be honest, Su has already mastered the method of transforming yin into yang and recreating the universe.

Looking at everyone, Su Mu continued, "As long as you occupy the territory in the outer realms, Su Mu is willing to help you rebuild the world."

Seeing the look of excitement on everyone's faces, Su Mu's lips curled up slightly.

"It's free."

Su Mu added.

"Of course, to transform yin into yang and recreate the universe, we will need to use some rare and precious materials, which you will need to provide yourselves."

After Su Mu finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

It must be said that among those who came to support the outer regions, there were those who advocated war and those who advocated peace.

But neither faction can deny Su Mu's statement: a larger territory means more resources.

For the major sects, what limits their development is not anything else, but resources.

Why would the True Saint Sect risk trading with the Ruins Realm?
Isn't it because their original territory was divided up by various sects, and they couldn't obtain enough resources?

A sect is no different from a secular imperial court; the imperial court needs to pay taxes, and the sect also needs people to support it.

However, the Taixu Sacred Realm, and even the entire Yang Realm, is only so big. Almost all of the land is already owned. If you want to expand your territory, there is almost no other way except to seize it from other sects.

What Su Mu described was indeed a path.

“Su Mu, you only mentioned the advantages, but not the disadvantages.”

A martial artist raised his voice and said, "What makes you think that the Void Realm is at your mercy?"

Do you think you can just take over someone else's territory?
What if we can't win?
The Void Beasts of the Void Realm are not to be trifled with.

“You’re right, the Void Beasts of the Void Realm are not to be trifled with.”

Su Mu nodded and said, "Moreover, they have already set their sights on the Yang Realm."

I don't know how many of you have been to the Ruins Realm, but I have.

I can tell you that the number of Void Beasts in the Void Realm has exceeded the capacity of the Void Realm. They now urgently need to expand their territory to gain space for survival.

So even if we don't attack the Void Realm, the Void Beasts of the Void Realm will definitely attack us.

You want to coexist peacefully, but they don't.

For a martial artist, going against the current is a very simple choice.

If you don't even dare to compete, what's the point of practicing martial arts?

The warriors who advocated for war nodded in agreement.

The side advocating peace could not find a reason to refute it for a time.

"Su Mu, how can we believe that you have the ability to recreate the world and transform yin into yang?"

Yang Hongdao, the sect leader of the True Saint Sect.

"Simple."

Su Mu smiled faintly and said, "Let's see what it's made of."

"Sect Leader Yang, you can lead your men to the Void Realm right now and carve out a territory. Then I will help you transform the world. Whether you can do it or not will be obvious."

Yang Hong's face darkened, and he let out a cold snort.

Is the True Saint Sect going to attack the Ruins Realm?
Do you want them to act as the vanguard?
Do you think Yang Hong is stupid?

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down; whoever is the first to storm into the Void Realm will face its fiercest counterattack.

Even if they were to try it, the True Saint Sect would not be the test subject.

"Giving it a try is a good idea."

Fu Canglan pondered for a moment and said, "While the Lord of the Void Beasts is still recovering from his injuries, we can first conquer a piece of the Void Realm to conduct experiments."

"Your Sky Dome Sect has the greatest power, so why don't you send people to attack?"

Yang Hongdao.

"Of course, my Azure Sky Sect can send people to fight."

Fu Canglan smiled slightly, "However, I have a better suggestion."

"What advice?"

Someone couldn't help but ask.

“Each of us will send a group of people, led by Fu himself, to conquer a piece of land in the market and hand it over to Su Mu for testing.”

If the experiment fails, then there's nothing more to say.

If the experiment is successful, we will allocate this territory to each family according to their contribution to the battle.

Fu Canglan spoke eloquently.

For someone of his status to personally lead a team into battle would indeed be beneath him.

However, Fu Canglan now wants to enhance his prestige. He not only wants to become the Lord of Yang, but also wants to seize the position left by the Venerable Bai Tian. Therefore, he occasionally has to mingle with these lower-level martial artists.

Fu Canglan thought to himself.

"That's a good idea. My Martial Sect will send three thousand men."

The Martial Ancestor was the first to speak, saying, "I will also personally accompany the team."

This first battle must be won.

As Wu Zu spoke, he glanced at Su Mu, his eyes burning with fierce flames.

Su Mu had already moved ahead of him. He desperately needed to fight now, because only through fighting could he quickly improve his strength.

Fu Canglan's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

The Martial Ancestor is going too? Isn't that stealing his thunder?
“Since Brother Fu and Brother Wu have both said so, then my True Saint Sect cannot fall behind. Since my True Saint Sect is not as good as the Martial Sect, then let’s send two thousand people.”

Yang Hong, the sect leader of the True Saint Sect, said, "As for myself, I will not compete with the two of you."

I will lead a team to guard the entrance between the two realms. In case of any unforeseen circumstances, I can also prevent the Void Beasts from entering the Yang Realm.

With Martial Ancestor and Yang Hong taking the lead, other sects also spoke up.

Some of them had two or three thousand people, while others had only a few hundred.

There were over a hundred sects present, and they quickly assembled an army of 100,000 men. (End of Chapter)
