Eternal God Emperor: Only I Am Emperor One

Chapter 217 The army presses the territory
All the marquises in the Rakshasa army were stunned by this scene.

It's terrifying! With nearly 100,000 Rakshasa Marquis troops right in front of him, he still managed to kill his way up to Princess Luo Sha.

This combat power has completely exceeded the limitations of the Ancestral Spirit Realm's merit battles, and is simply beyond the capabilities of a Saint-level Rakshasa Marquis to contend with.

"Your Highness still doesn't fully understand your own strength and always thinks you have something to rely on. You should know that true strength always comes from one's own power."

Di Yi punched through Luo Sha's protective holy light and sealed off the surrounding void with his original means, preventing her from even using spatial teleportation.

Instead of Luo Sha's head, a pair of large hands came crashing down, accompanied by the whooshing sound of wind.

"Boom!"

Taking advantage of this moment, Luo Sha unleashed an eighth-grade attack talisman, less powerful than the Python King Talisman, to fight against Di Yi together with the person who made the move.

A moment later, the two were sent flying backward and crashed into the White Bone Commander's Platform.

"Come again!"

Emperor Yi unleashed his true power, his aura vast and unparalleled, his battle roar resounding throughout the heavens and earth. Like an invincible war god, he charged into the Rakshasa army, killing gods and Buddhas alike in his path.

Another powerful Rakshasa figure made a move. He was a cultivator who had achieved physical sainthood, his entire body enveloped in lightning. He clashed head-on with Di Yi, exchanging three blows before coughing up blood and staggering backward.

Then, a male and a female Rakshasa clan expert attacked from the left and right. Both were incredibly powerful, with cultivation reaching the Saint King level. However, their auras were not stable, indicating that they had only recently broken through to the Saint King level. Nevertheless, their combat strength was remarkable, and both had the ability to contend with a three-step Saint King.

Di Yi activated the Fire God Gauntlets to repel the two, then, sensing danger, abandoned his pursuit of Luo Sha and dodged to the side.

A moment later, more than a dozen sacred artifacts with perfect power bombarded the spot where he stood.

Three men and one woman, a total of four figures, surrounded Luo Sha.

Their cultivation levels had just broken through to the first step of the Saint King realm, but their combat strength was no weaker than that of the third step Saint King. Their physical bodies were extremely powerful, and a rich divine aura flowed within them.

"Four Saint Kings with supreme perfect physiques, are the Heavenly Court's patrolling angels just sitting around doing nothing? They actually let them into the Ancestral Spirit Realm."

Di Yi cursed inwardly. If it weren't for these four people taking action, he would have been quite confident that he could have captured Luo Sha today and completely rewritten the battle situation of the Ancestral Spirit Realm Merit War.

If Luo Sha is captured, the Seven Realms Merit War can end in a great victory in less than three months.

Not only these four Saint King powerhouses, but also twenty powerful Rakshasa Marquises from not far away arrived together, with countless evil clouds behind them, numbering in the millions.

"Twenty first-class marquises? They've gone mad. The Temple of Merit is truly useless. They don't care about the lives of the Seven Realms Saints of Shatuo at all."

Di Yi cursed inwardly, knowing that it was impossible to capture Luo Sha today, and if he didn't leave, he might have to pay a heavy price.

After all, with the addition of four more Rakshasa prodigies at the Saint King level and twenty first-class marquises, the power of the Rakshasa army's battle formation would increase exponentially, making it difficult for him to withstand.

"Princess Luo Sha really has no sense of propriety at all. She's brought so many powerful figures from the Underworld to fight. Isn't she afraid of angering the gods of the Heavenly Court?"

Luo Sha wiped the bloodstains from the corner of her mouth, regained her confidence, and chuckled, "Since they were able to enter the Ancestral Spirit Realm, it means that the gods of the Heavenly Court Realm did not object. Emperor Yi, the cultivators of the Seven Realms of Shatuo have been abandoned by the Heavenly Court Realm. With your talent, if you join the Rakshasa Clan, this princess can appoint you as the first general under my command and help you become a Holy Emperor in the future."

Princess Luo Sha hated Emperor Yi to the extreme, but at the same time she admired and cherished his talent.

The Hell Realm is teeming with talented individuals, and those with the highest level of perfect physique are as numerous as carp crossing a river.

But even she had never met someone like Di Yi before, which greatly shocked her.

"Your Highness, there's no need for your pretense. If we can't kill you today, we'll meet again another day."

Emperor Yi turned and retreated into Xuan Yuan Mountain.

The four powerful Saint Kings beside Luo Sha wanted to give chase, but she stopped them.

"There's no need to chase him. There must be an ambush in Xuan Yuan Mountain. The Ancestral Spirit Realm Merit War still has more than two months left. There will be plenty of opportunities to fight him."

"Yes," the four Saint Kings replied in unison.

Luo Sha was very familiar with the four of them; they were all top talents in her brother's Imperial Saint Camp.

Fortunately, these four people were brought to the Ancestral Spirit Realm this time; otherwise, the consequences would have been unpredictable.

Emperor Luo Yan had only two children: the divine prince Luo Shengtian and Princess Luo Sha. Both were born to the Heavenly Mother of Sound and had a very close relationship.

Therefore, upon learning that Luo Sha needed to borrow people, Luo Shengtian directly dispatched the four strongest Saints in the Fenghuang Holy Camp and bestowed upon them breakthrough treasures, allowing them to immediately attempt to reach the Saint King realm upon entering the Ancestral Spirit Realm.

"Wind, Thunder, Snow, and Sword" is the abbreviation for these four powerful figures, and also their most proficient techniques. "Your Highness, who exactly is this person? The Seven Realms of Shatuo are not the seven weakest great worlds in the Western Universe, so how can there be such a powerful figure? His physical body is clearly only recently transformed into the Sea Realm, yet his power is as vast as the ocean, and his foundation is unfathomable. Among those of the same realm, I'm afraid there are few in the entire Rakshasa Clan who can compare to him." Lei Xiao is the strongest of the four in terms of physical body, possessing the body of a true god, and his physical body has transformed into the Sea Realm.

However, when he fought Di Yi earlier, his physical strength was suppressed, which shocked him greatly.

“This person comes from the Kunlun Realm. His martial arts, physical body, and spiritual power are all terrifyingly strong. Moreover, he has mastered more than one ancient path. I suspect that he is also a master of the ancient path. At the very least, his attainments in the primordial path are extremely high, and he can even suppress my spatial path,” Luo Sha said.

The four powerful figures were all shocked upon hearing this. Princess Luo Sha was a master of space, and her mastery of the Dao of Space was unparalleled among those of the same realm.

This cultivator from the Kunlun Realm was able to suppress Princess Luo Sha's spatial Dao with his Origin Dao, so he might actually be an Origin Controller.

Space controllers are born once every thousand years, but in the present universe, the Primal God Temple is not prominent. Not to mention Primal Controllers, even Primal Cultivators are very rare.

Even in a single epoch, there might not be many Origin Controllers.

Twenty-Seven Snows was an effeminate man, whose appearance was considered the most outstanding among the Rakshasa clan. He asked, "Your Highness said that you have mastered more than one ancient path. Besides the Path of Origin, what other ancient path has he mastered?"

“It is the path of darkness.” Luo Sha recalled the terrifying devouring power that erupted from Di Yi that day. If it weren’t for the divine power left in her body by the Heavenly Sound Goddess, she would have been drained by Di Yi at that time.

The source of that devouring power must be the Path of Darkness.

"The Path of Darkness? He's a cultivator from the Heavenly Court Realm, yet he's cultivated the Path of Darkness. That's quite strange." Feng Liudao, the last of the four powerful figures, exclaimed in surprise.

“He not only cultivated the Path of Darkness, but his mastery of it was also very high, no weaker than the Path of Origin. I suspect that he obtained the inheritance left by the gods who died in the Dark Temple 100,000 years ago in the Kunlun Realm. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to cultivate the Path of Darkness to such a degree,” Luo Sha speculated.

“His physical body is invincible, and he has simultaneously cultivated the Dao of Origin and the Dao of Darkness. He is also suspected to be the controller of the Dao of Eternity. Such a person is indeed a formidable enemy. Your Highness, the four of us have been ordered by the Divine Prince to come and await Your Highness's command. Please give us your instructions on how to proceed,” Lei Xiao said respectfully.

The other three also respectfully awaited Luo Sha's instructions.

With the four powerful figures from the Imperial Holy Camp, twenty first-class marquises, and three million Rakshasa marquises who had arrived, Luo Sha had enough confidence to completely annihilate all the saints of the Seven Realms of Shatuo, including Emperor Yi.

Di Yi has shown too much talent; if he grows up, he will definitely cause great trouble for the Hell Realm in the Battle of Merit in the future.

"First, we'll cleanse the Shatuo Seven Realms cultivators on the Northern Continent, then deal with the Eastern and Western Continents. The Southern Continent is the largest and most stable of the four continents, so we'll save it for last as the final battleground."

……

Back in Xuan Yuan Mountain, the saints of Kunlun Realm had already dealt with the battle situation there.

Upon seeing Di Yi's return, Wan Canglan and the others hurriedly came to greet him.

"How's the situation outside?"

Di Yi shook his head, his expression grave: "The situation is very bad. The Rakshasa Clan has newly recruited a large number of powerful warriors from the Hell Realm, far beyond our ability to defeat. We can no longer stay in the Northern Continent. Notify the Kunlun Realm Saints at the Northern Mountain Camp to immediately set off for the space wormhole. We are going to the Southern Continent."

"In addition, send a message to the sages of Kunlun Realm on both the eastern and western continents, and tell them to also go to the southern continent. Kunlun Realm has accumulated enough merit points now. What we need to do next is to preserve our strength and prepare for the final battle."

Upon hearing this, Wan Canglan and the others' expressions changed drastically. The successive victories had inevitably led them to underestimate the Rakshasa army, making them feel that it was nothing special.

"Is the situation really that dire? Our situation in the Northern Continent is excellent. Wouldn't it be a shame to give up like this?" Wan Canglan asked.

The emperor looked at her with a fierce look in his eyes and rebuked her, "I am the commander appointed by the Empress and Emperor Wen. Do as I command. Anyone who dares to disobey will be met with no mercy."

Wan Canglan was stunned by the overwhelming murderous aura emanating from him and didn't know how to answer for a moment. Suddenly, a feeling of grievance arose in her heart.

Why be so fierce? Come to think of it, she's one of the commanders.

When the Emperor saw that her eyes were red, he realized that he had misspoke. He was greatly surprised to see that the Canglan Martial Saint, who never shed tears, was on the verge of tears.

After a moment of silence, he reached out and gently patted her bare shoulder.

“The Northern Continent is home to millions of Rakshasa Marquises. We have caused such enormous losses to the Rakshasa race. If we do not leave, we will surely face a frenzied retaliation.”

Wan Canglan bit her red lips tightly, glared at him, turned and left, and began to organize the retreat of the saints of Kunlun Realm.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen, far away on the Southern Continent, felt a mix of joy and worry upon learning of the current merit points of the Kunlun Realm.

The good news is that if Kunlun Realm continues to develop in this trend, it is very likely to become the first in the Saint Merit Battle. The bad news is that he promised the Moon Goddess that he would help Guanghan Realm win the first place in the Saint Merit Battle.

Given the current situation, it is almost impossible for the Guanghan Realm to surpass the Kunlun Realm and become number one.

Not only Kunlun Realm, but even powerful realms like the Great Demon Realm and Purple Mansion Realm are difficult for Guanghan Realm to catch up with.
