Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 271 Songbird
In an instant.

The sword energy of Autumn Water was fierce and swept in.

The captain was effectively trapped on the spot!
Autumn waters, though not as sharp as the light of dawn.

However, as a supreme treasure of spiritual essence, it possesses unique characteristics, capable of unexpectedly sealing away spiritual essence!

The captain activated the "Spirit Awakening Array," causing the spiritual energy to surge.

But at this moment.

Faced with Qiu Shui's restraint, his body twisted wildly.

But he couldn't move an inch!
The sword light was fierce, reflecting in my pupils.

"Such a massive influx of spiritual energy was just a casual strike from him!"

The captain was horrified, and a final thought flashed through his mind.

Then everything went dark, and she lost consciousness.

boom!
The autumn waters flowed like sharp blades through paper, tearing and slicing through.

They tore his body into countless pieces!
Whether it's the "Spirit Awakening Array" or the specially made combat uniform.

Even the protective charm hanging around his neck.

They were all blasted into dust by the autumn waters, serving no protective function whatsoever!

See this scene.

The remaining team members, their slender figures trembling violently, did not hesitate at all. They all took out their communicators, protective light screens surged around them, and they turned and rushed towards the airship!

They had realized that the creatures on Earth before them were far too terrifying, and that they were no match for them.

Staying here will only lead to our deaths!

Even the captain who activated the "Spirit Awakening Array" was killed by him with a single sword strike.

In their eyes.

This terrifying strength is comparable to that of a Divine Palace Realm cultivator!
"Stay."

Jiang Jian spoke softly.

next second.

The long sword in his hand, Autumn Water, vanished into light.

Instead.

It was a black wooden staff.

At this time.

The team members had already boarded the airship and hurriedly started it up, flying towards the Mercury warship that blotted out the sky at the crack in the firmament!
Jiang Jian held the Ksitigarbha staff and gently made a stroke.

This incomparably magnificent wooden staff suddenly emitted specks of black light and disappeared into nothingness.

in a blink.

A few hundred meters away.

On the rapidly ascending airship, all the team members froze in shock!
Their pupils went vacant, and their souls quietly vanished.

Their slender bodies stiffened, and they fell off the edge of the airship one after another, plunging into the mountain cliffs and dense forests.

Jiang Jian raised his head, looking at the airship that was getting smaller and smaller. He then gently flipped his hand and put away the Ksitigarbha Staff.

Activating this treasure once requires a small amount of divine soul energy.

He made his own assessment.

Based on the amount of divine soul power that I can currently utilize.

The Ksitigarbha staff can be used approximately three times.

Even against an ordinary Divine Palace Realm cultivator, it can suppress their soul and render them unable to fight in a short time!
"Thank you for saving my life!"

A monster approached, its eyes filled with gratitude.

Even more spirits and creatures flew down, their expressions solemn, and bowed to Jiang Jian, saying, "Thank you!"

Mingque Mountain is a place where informal citizens live.

The creatures living there are mostly monsters and spirits.

The squad that just landed from the warship.

In a short period of time, nearly a hundred creatures in the mountains were slaughtered!
Something happened suddenly.

Other mountain spirits couldn't get very far.

They witnessed the horrific scene of demons being slaughtered.

They were all filled with despair, closing their eyes and awaiting death.

Now that they have survived the ordeal, their emotions are in turmoil. They all gather around and thank Jiang Jian.

"If it weren't for you, we would all be dead here!"

"Thank you!"

Are you from the White Night Pavilion?

"I've heard that the White Night Pavilion belongs to the Imperial Star Palace and only recruits creatures from the White Night Mansion. The conditions are extremely strict!"

"How can I join the White Night Pavilion!?"

Amidst the clamor and discussion.

Many of the monsters had bloodshot eyes and clenched fists, filled with hatred.

Obviously.

Among the creatures that were just slaughtered were their blood relatives.

Jiang Jian shook his head slightly, about to speak.

Above the sky.

An aircraft and a small warship landed one after the other.

"That's a guard ship of the White Night Prefecture!"

A monster gazed at the warship with a look of delight.

Although on ordinary days, the officers and soldiers of the White Night Prefecture are not friendly to non-citizens.

But now we see the government's escort ships.

These monsters from Mingque Mountain felt much more at ease.

"A warship squadron has fallen into Mingque Mountain on the northern border of Baiye Prefecture. 68 unofficial citizens have been killed or wounded, and the squadron's whereabouts are currently unknown!"

The frigate's hatch opened, and an armed soldier stood in front, scanning the area with goggles before quickly counting the casualties. He took out his identification device, clicked repeatedly, and began reporting.

at the same time.

A disdainful voice came from the opposite aircraft: "The government office is full of idiots. The entire warship squadron is dead, and you're still reporting them missing. You're incredibly stupid!"

I was insulted for no reason.

The soldier with the gun looked grim, but dared not lash out. He asked in a muffled voice, "May I ask, cultivator, what is the basis for your judgment that a member of the squad has died?"

As a staff member of the government office.

Within the territory of Baiye Prefecture, he was known for his reckless and fearless behavior.

However, the aircraft opposite belonged to the "White Night Pavilion," which had been established not long ago.

White Night Pavilion is a subordinate structure of Imperial Star Palace.

The person in charge of the pavilion is none other than Lord Baiye!

A group of prodigies from the Yongquan Realm were successively recruited and given the official title of "Cultivator".

According to the joint regulations of Earth and Mars.

During wartime, the Imperial Star Palace was above its respective alliances and federations.

It represents the supreme authority of the two planets!
Even the lowest-ranking "cultivators" in the pavilions under the Imperial Star Palace, as long as they hold an official position in the Imperial Star Palace, are far beyond the reach of government officials.

"You won't admit you're an idiot. I saw it with my own eyes, do I need to judge it?"

The cultivator sneered, raised his wrist, and shook the gray glasses in his hand.

"The war preparedness equipment that the government provided to you is all old junk from several years ago. It has short range and low frequency, and it's just a pile of garbage."

Hear this.

The soldier with the gun subconsciously reached out and touched his old glasses, looking embarrassed, and dared not argue further.

The cultivator chuckled, jumped off the aircraft, and landed beside Jiang Jian. His expression softened as he said, "You were able to kill seven Mercury scum single-handedly. Even if you receive a lot of rewards, I won't be jealous."

The crack in the sky above stretches across several prefectures.

Baiye Mansion is one of them.

The affected prefectures acted swiftly, having already received notification from the Imperial Star Palace, organizing their subordinate pavilions and dispatching cultivators to intercept the attack.

During wartime, almost all of Earth's resources were directed towards the Imperial Star Palace.

Killing a creature from Mercury will earn you a huge reward!

This time, the Demon Lord Baxia suddenly made a move, blasting a crack in the planetary barrier and sending a giant warship into the surface world in an attempt to create chaos.

But the cultivators of the Imperial Star Palace were not afraid at all; on the contrary, they were all extremely excited.

They know it very well.

At the same level, the beings of Mercury have limited strength.

In the early stages of the war.

These warship squadrons that fell to the surface and caused chaos are a huge source of spiritual resources for us!

after all.

Aside from the Divine Palace Realm, one can automatically enter the Imperial Star Palace.

Those beings in the Yongquan Realm who wish to join and obtain the official title of "Cultivator" must undergo extremely rigorous screening!

After rigorous screening.

Every cultivator in the Imperial Star Palace is a person of considerable strength!

despite this.

A complete warship squad still requires 3 to 4 cultivators to eliminate it with minimal casualties.

In the eyes of this cultivator.

Jiang Jian activated his powerful trump card and single-handedly wiped out a small team.

Its combat power is almost comparable to that of an "elder"!
"Hey, that's not right!"

The cultivator sized up Jiang Jian, then suddenly asked, "You're not an official of the White Night Pavilion!?"

At first he thought.

Jiang Jian, like himself, held the official position of "Cultivator" in the White Night Pavilion.

The White Night Pavilion was established not long ago.

And it continues to recruit living beings.

Many of these officials did not know each other.

However, after the cultivator used his identity device to access the images, he discovered that the white-robed youth in front of him was not among the officials of the White Night Pavilion at all, and was not even a "cultivator"!

"No."

Seeing that Jiang remained calm, he didn't say anything more. After identifying the direction, he headed straight for Chang'an Prefecture.

"and many more!"

The cultivator called out to Jiang Jian, "Many warship squadrons have fallen over there; it's extremely dangerous!"

The Mercury warships stretched across the sky.

Nearly half of the squads landed near Chang'an Prefecture!

in other words.

In that direction, there are tens of thousands of Mercury creatures!
Simultaneously.

That was also the place where the defensive battles were the most brutal!

Not just "cultivators".

Even many "elders".

Even several "vice-heads".

They were all dispatched to intercept the warship squadron!
The official ranks and positions within the subordinate pavilions of the Imperial Star Palace are clearly defined.

The first-tier "cultivators" are beings from the Yongquan Realm with profound foundations.

The second-tier "elders" are all top-tier cultivators at the Yongquan Realm.

The third tier is the "Deputy Pavilion Master".

And the fourth-tier "Patrol Envoy".

Only those at the Divine Palace Realm are qualified to serve in this position!
