NOVEL NEXT Chapter 855 Provocation
"Cursed, they still escaped, our plan has failed!"
Chu Yuan's complexion looked very unpleasant.
"Failed, you say? I don't think so. In fact, we succeeded."
The Divine Elixer spoke calmly, "The appearance of the Enlightenment Book this time was beyond our expectations, since it usually dares not show itself. Our initial goal was only to capture The Book of Martial Arts."
"I understand your point."
Shi Zhen said.
"Whether it's capturing The Book of Martial Arts or them escaping, our core purpose is only one, that is to find the whereabouts of the Enlightenment Book universe. Once the Enlightenment Book made its move, its aura could no longer be concealed, allowing us to finally pinpoint its location."
The Divine Elixer appeared confident.
"The Enlightenment Book is very important. The reason why the Enlightenment Book universe has so many spirits is precisely because of the Enlightenment Book's existence. Helping open wisdom, the undying value it highly. Next, we must ascertain its position."
Shi Zhen nodded.
"Exactly, the location of the Enlightenment Book has been exposed. Whether he rescues or not, our goal has been achieved. Let's go, quickly prepare the next plan."
The people from the Spiritual Realm left this star space.
Divine Martial Empire.
"You're back."
Chu Yuan looked at those who had returned with the Enlightenment Book.
"Your Majesty!"
The Book of Martial Arts stepped forward, "I have brought the Primordial Stone that you required, but I did not handle the matter flawlessly. It drew the people of the Spiritual Realm, and even caused the Enlightenment Book to risk great danger to save me. I did not execute this mission well."
"The Spiritual Realm is my sworn enemy, with the undying trying to capture me to take my powers. Now that I have saved The Book of Martial Arts, I fear that the people of the Spiritual Realm will trace their way to the empire, bringing great trouble to it."
The face of the Enlightenment Book grew solemn, knowing the enormity of the Spiritual Realm, he said, "This is unfavorable for the empire."
"If the Spiritual Realm comes, we can only meet their forces head-on. You are my subjects, and the empire will protect its people."
Chu Yuan spoke indifferently, "Besides, the power of my 'Curse Gate' has not yet been triggered."
"The Curse Gate!"
These four words sent a shock through The Book of Martial Arts, aware of the wicked nature of this gate and its substantial eroding effect on spirits.
"The Book of Martial Arts, you have labored hard, rest well now."
Chu Yuan flicked his fingers, and several Cosmic Divine Elixers fell into the hands of The Book of Martial Arts.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The Enlightenment Book and The Book of Martial Arts withdrew.
"The Curse Gate!"
After they left, Chu Yuan entered the Emperor's realm within the empire to refine the Curse Gate, fully aware of the formidable nature of this gate, fearing even the undying, lest it bring fire to their robes, causing disasters upon themselves.
One day.
Two days.
Three days.
A month later.
Just outside the Divine Martial Empire, suddenly endless dazzling spiritual light was piercing through, massive figures appeared in the starry sky, their oppressive aura enveloping.
A gigantic spiritual light palm roared with extremely terrifying power, directly targeting the Divine Martial star region to crush it.
The strong warriors from the Spiritual Realm had arrived!
One mighty warrior after another used their power to suppress the Divine Martial star region.
They were very domineering, launching an attack led by many Cosmic Gods, assembling a large number of World Gods to fiercely bombard the region with mana.
"The people of the Spiritual Realm are attacking!"
In that instant, the Enlightenment Book suddenly looked up and saw this scene.
Just as the luminous palm struck, the empire's national destiny, like fierce fire in oil, powerfully coalesced and resisted the hit.
"What strong national destiny! The Enlightenment Book is right here."
The elites of the Spiritual Realm appeared, among them the Five Elements Divine Metal, and many unknown strong figures surrounded the Divine Martial Empire, observing this country's destiny.
"Let's break through this empire directly and seize the Enlightenment Book."
Shi Zhen said.
"In front of our Spiritual Realm, they cannot stop us."
A universal deity spoke coldly, his gaze piercing the heavens.
"Audacious! This is the land of our Divine Martial Empire. Are you declaring war?"
The empire's elites had long known the news and soon the elites from the Spiritual Realm would descend. Seeing their reckless courage, they angrily faced them.
"The Divine Martial Empire?"
A man with a fierce aura stepped forward from the crowd, looked disdainfully at the Divine Martial Empire, stood with his hands behind his back, and arrogantly said, "So this is where the Enlightenment Book hides. We've searched for you for so long, and you're here. Unfortunately, you still can't escape the eternal pursuit. Where is the emperor of this Divine Martial Empire? Let him come out and meet me, Gu Wushuang."
"Gu Wushuang, a deity of the undying Divine Artifact achieved!"
The Enlightenment Book, looking serious, appeared and said, "You haven't met His Majesty yet. Your Spiritual Realm is persistently unyielding, huh? Mobilizing such a force just to capture me was the right choice I made years ago. Are you still going to attack forcibly?"
At that moment, a majestic will arose within the empire, overlooking the starry sky.
"Enlightenment Book, I don't want to waste words with you. The undying have specifically named you; it would be wise of you to let your emperor appear and hand you over. Come with us quietly, or else we will obliterate the Divine Martial Empire and reduce it to dust in history."
Gu Wushuang looked defiant.
In his Spiritual Realm, there were undying beings, and he wasn't concerned about this previously unheard of Divine Martial Empire.
If it weren't for the Enlightenment Book, they wouldn't have come here at all.
"You want to obliterate my Divine Martial Empire!"
Upon hearing Gu Wushuang's words, the empire's elites were furious. They had followed the Great Emperor in conquests in all directions, fearing no one.
"Hand over the Enlightenment Book, spare your lives, or after destroying your nation, all of you will become slaves!"
The elites of the Spiritual Realm were too domineering and arrogant, even making such pronouncements within the territory of the Divine Martial Empire.
Suddenly, just as Gu Wushuang finished speaking, they saw a towering figure pick up a bow and shoot a nine-colored aurora fiercely, creating a terrifying force that whipped up boundless waves among the elites of the Spiritual Realm.
"Dare to strike at us, is this the will of your emperor? Not handing over the Enlightenment Book, very well, we will obliterate this empire!"
Chu Yuan's action clearly enraged them, and they hadn't expected the emperor of this empire to be so domineering, striking directly.
In their eyes, this was a provocation.
"Attack!"
Gu Wushuang, cold and arrogant, had an undying spear appear in his hand, sweeping forward. Boundless divine light suddenly charged towards the Divine Martial Empire, with divine power spreading and causing a massive collapse in the starry sky.
"Then come and fight!"
The Enlightenment Book held up an ancient book.
He knew Gu Wushuang's strength was formidable, even more so than that of the Five Elements Divine Metal, but the emperor's will had already declared everything — those who attacked the Divine Martial Empire were enemies.
With the strength of the fourth step, he had created a book universe, rendering the undying of the Spiritual Realm unable to find him for years. This alone showed his formidable strength; otherwise, could he have survived until now?
"Gu Wushuang, were it not for the undying of your Spiritual Realm, would you even dare target me?"
The Enlightenment Book, though wise, had hidden for many years due to the Spiritual Realm; actually, he had also harbored a fire in his heart, and now he was releasing it.
His vital energy boiled, the ancient book emitting immense pressure. Waves of enlightening aura swept out, transforming into rays of essence that swept through the void.
