132: Chapter 132 I'm Back!

"Hey! What are you standing there for?"

A sudden voice rang out.

It instantly jolted Great Elder Yun Ming out of his daze!

The one speaking was none other than Ye Tian.

As the deputy commander of the Divine Martial Guard, he was actually somewhat similar to Great Elder Yun Ming.

He basically handled all the day-to-day affairs of the Divine Martial Guard, as Ge Nie was the type of person who wouldn't show his face unless it was a major event.

Of course.

Ye Tian didn't have any complaints.

He knew his own situation. Normally speaking, it was already a miracle that he had survived, so he didn't dare to have any objections at all.

Most importantly...

Under the baptism of the Imperial Destiny Power, his strength had increased incredibly fast—countless times faster than when he Cultivated on his own in his past life!

It had only been a few short months.

His strength had already reached a Breakthrough to the Cave Heaven Realm.

This method of increasing strength without needing to Cultivate was simply too intoxicating.

Comparatively...

Wasn't it just helping to manage the affairs of the Divine Martial Guard? That was nothing at all; he was more than happy to do it!

It was precisely because of this...

That he stayed behind to remind Great Elder Yun Ming after watching everyone else leave!

"Didn't you hear the grand commander's words? Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"Remember! The grand commander letting you lead the charge is your opportunity. Many in our Divine Martial Guard would fight for such a chance and still not get it. I hope you cherish it!"

After Great Elder Yun Ming snapped back to his senses, he immediately nodded repeatedly.

"Yes... yes! Thank you for the reminder, My Lord!"

Although he didn't quite understand the meaning behind Ye Tian's words yet...

Still...

Great Elder Yun Ming didn't dare to delay any longer. After cupping his hands in a salute to Ye Tian, he transformed into a streak of light and charged into the Void Realm.

Around the spatial portal above the Imperial City...

At this moment...

An army of a million had already gathered.

According to the consultations between General Chu Batian and Prime Minister Zhuge Dali...

For this expedition to the Xingyuan Continent, they did not mobilize the Imperial Dynasty's billions of soldiers, but only drew a million elites at the Land Deity Realm or above.

One must know...

The opponent was a powerful Intermediate world. Those who were too weak might not be of much use if they went!

Furthermore, they were confident...

That with this army of a million in the Land Immortal Realm, plus the Divine Martial Guard, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and those powerful generals in the army, taking down the Xingyuan Continent should be no problem.

When everyone was ready...

Ge Nie, as the commander of the Divine Martial Guard, bowed in salute toward the direction of the Imperial Palace.

Deep within the Imperial Palace...

Wang Chen calmly watched everything in the Void Realm.

When he saw Ge Nie's movement, he no longer hesitated and spoke directly.

"Set out! I shall be watching you from here!"

Wang Chen's voice was not loud...

Yet it was like a heavenly decree, instantly spreading across the entire Xuantian Continent.

At this very moment...

Every living being within the Xuantian Continent understood.

The Imperial Dynasty had once again initiated an extra-dimensional war.

And...

What they were facing this time was likely a powerful Intermediate world!

In that instant...

As Wang Chen's voice fell...

Ge Nie looked up.

He did not look back, nor did he salute again, and he didn't even say a single extra word.

"Kill—!!!"

There was no impassioned pre-battle mobilization, nor were there any soul-stirring grand speeches.

There was only one word: "Kill."

And...

The moment the sound fell, Ge Nie's figure transformed into an ultimate sword light, charging directly into the spatial portal.

"Kill!!!"

Following closely behind him were The Five Great Dharma Kings!

The five stepped into the portal simultaneously, like five divine rainbows splitting the heavens!

"Kill!!!"

After that, it was all the members of the Divine Martial Guard!

Led by Ye Tian...

Over twenty Cave Heaven Realm experts!

Nearly a thousand Dharma Manifestation Realm elites!

They had no unified command and no pre-rehearsed formations.

However...

When that earth-shattering "Kill" erupted from nearly a thousand mouths at once, the gathered killing intent instantly condensed into a visible Blood-Red War Cloud!

The war cloud churned, and its Evil Qi soared to the skies!

Nearly a thousand streaks of light...

Like a thousand unsheathed blades, they followed the Five-Colored Divine Wheels and surged grandiosely into the spatial portal!

Among them...

Great Elder Yun Ming was quite prominent.

Because Ge Nie had ordered him to lead the charge...

So...

Even though he had just joined the Divine Martial Guard, he stood at the very front, right beside Ye Tian.

Judging by his appearance, he was acting very proactively!

"Kill!!!"

Following the Divine Martial Guard was—General Chu Batian.

Behind him...

Were a million elite Cultivators at or above the Land Deity Realm.

In previous extra-dimensional wars...

To reduce the casualties of ordinary soldiers, they would always enter calmly as "receivers" only after the Divine Martial Guard had cleared the obstacles and secured the victory.

They had never complained.

Because that was the strategy set by Your Majesty, the wisdom used by the Imperial Dynasty to obtain the greatest victory at the smallest cost.

But this time...

This time was different!

This time, they didn't need to wait any longer!

"Soldiers!!!"

"Charge with this general—!!!"

Before General Chu Batian's voice even faded...

He had already transformed into a bolt of silver lightning, carrying overwhelming Evil Qi as he dived headfirst into the spatial portal!

"Charge—!!!"

"Kill—!!!"

There was no hesitation, no uncertainty, and at this moment, no one even thought of the word "danger."

An army of a million...

Transformed into a million streaks of light, soaring into the sky at the same moment!

It wasn't just "light falling like rain."

It was the collapse of the firmament, the inversion of the galaxy!

The sky above the Imperial City was completely obscured for the first time.

The spatial portal, which was clearly only a thousand feet in diameter, now seemed like an inexhaustible bottomless abyss, greedily swallowing the continuous stream of brilliant light flowing into it.

The first batch of a hundred thousand vanished into it.

The second batch of two hundred thousand followed closely behind.

The third batch...

The fourth batch...

In just a few moments...

Everyone in the Void Realm had charged into the spatial portal.

...

Meanwhile...

In the Xingyuan Continent, at the Xuanyun Sect.

Countless powerful Elders and deacons suddenly stopped what they were doing.

They looked up in confusion.

"Strange..."

"Why does it feel like the void... has cracked open?"

Just as everyone was wondering...

BOOM!

Accompanied by a massive roar...

The sky actually split open with a giant crack!

"Holy crap! How did the sky really crack open?"

"What's going on? Why would a spatial rift appear in the sky..."

The ones who reacted the fastest...

Were naturally the higher-ups of the Xuanyun Sect.

Led by Sect Master True Master Yun He, a group of Elders and deacons had all appeared in the sky by now.

They looked at the spatial rift before them, their expressions grave!

The appearance of this spatial rift was too fishy, and it had appeared directly within their Sect, forcing them to be cautious!

"Not good—!!!"

True Master Yun He's pupils constricted. He didn't even have time to think; it was purely the instinct of a Unity Realm expert that made him sense danger instantly.

"Retreat, quickly!"

After saying that...

He disappeared from the spot instantly.

However, not everyone had his reaction speed.

"Ah—!"

Several short, shrill screams rang out almost simultaneously.

Several Xuanyun Sect Elders and deacons closest to the spatial portal didn't have time to make any move before they were hit head-on by a majestic force from within the spatial portal!

At the same time...

A voice they were all very familiar with suddenly came from within the spatial portal.

"Hahahahaha—!"

"Yun He!"

"I'm back!!!"
