East Sea waters.

About a hundred miles from the mainland, on a small island, the red sun flag of the Eastern Ying kingdom was now erected, fluttering in the wind. The island was teeming with people, with warriors everywhere.

They were arranging and training in a very orderly manner...

There were also some strangely dressed warriors, each seeking a peak to refine the heaven and earth spiritual energy.

Although, due to the Martial Emperor City, the overseas Eastern Ying forces had not yet landed to this day, the surrounding sea areas had basically been occupied.

Named islands had also been seized.

This... was just one of them.

On the island's coast, two figures stood facing the sea, unyielding in the wind. One of them was dressed in a black robe, with delicate features and a youthful appearance.

And he was none other than the Eastern Ying immortal Chen Yuan had encountered after transcending the tribulation on Divine Dragon Island, Yanagi Jun, the ancestor of the Yanagi family.

Now, he was also the leader of the three major Eastern Ying families. The Eastern Ying's mobilization of almost all its forces to attack the Central Plains was planned and executed by him.

As for the person next to him, he was draped in a purple robe with mysterious patterns engraved on it. His cheeks were extremely thin and gaunt, somewhat similar to the Lord of the Seven Killings Hall.

His whole body was stiff, with only a pair of eerie eyes being lively.

He was named Muto Kamui, the number one expert in Eastern Ying three hundred years ago. His prestige could even suppress the three major families at the time, and there was hope of establishing a family on par with them.

But unexpectedly, after establishing the title of the number one expert in Eastern Ying, Muto Kamui disappeared completely. Some said that he failed to break through the Sixth Realm and had already fallen.

Some said that he had already broken through the Sixth Realm and was traveling the world.

Others said that he was quite interested in the Immortal Sects of the Central Plains and was killed on the spot by the immortals of the Central Plains' Immortal Sects when he went to challenge them. In short... there were many legends about him.

And he had also left behind a title.

Blood Sea Sword God!

Yes, in Eastern Ying, where the way of the katana was prevalent, he used a sword... relying on the sword, he had established the title of the number one genius in Eastern Ying, and could be described as a heaven-sent talent.

"I didn't think you would come."

Yanagi Jun, with his youthful appearance, spoke in a rather aged voice, which seemed quite strange.

Early on, Yanagi Jun suspected that there were still immortals within Eastern Ying, but they had never emerged. He ordered people to investigate, but there was no trace of them.

But he knew that Muto Kamui was likely still alive. He personally went to the Muto family, but unfortunately, he gained nothing. He thought that he had lost all hope and could only attack the Central Plains himself.

Unexpectedly, today... he came.

It was indeed somewhat unexpected.

Muto Kamui looked at the endless sea and said faintly:

"I have come here, firstly, to repay the kindness of your guidance in the past."

Three hundred years ago, Yanagi Jun had already broken through the Sixth Realm for a long time, and his strength was extraordinary. Muto Kamui came to seek advice, but was not discouraged by him. Instead, he pointed out some key points in breaking through.

This kindness had to be repaid.

"Secondly, it is for the survival of Eastern Ying. As an Eastern Ying warrior, I naturally have to take action in times of crisis."

One of the main reasons that prompted Muto Kamui to risk coming to the Central Plains was that Eastern Ying was about to face a great calamity. Nowadays, the matter of the great calamity has already spread among the various forces in Eastern Ying.

Therefore, Yanagi Jun was able to summon so many warriors to join forces.

However, what he couldn't figure out was what the great calamity referred to.

He had also asked some people who spied on the secrets of heaven, but the calamities they predicted were different. Some said that the earth fire would erupt and burn Eastern Ying to ashes, turning everyone into ashes.

Some said that the sea area would surge, sweeping across the heaven and earth, and burying Eastern Ying.

Others said that the heaven and earth spiritual energy would become thinner and thinner, and there would be no more warriors from then on.

He had explored it, but unfortunately, he had gained nothing.

"I didn't misjudge you."

Yanagi Jun nodded in satisfaction.

"Now, can senior tell me what the great calamity is, so that Kamui can be prepared?" Muto Kamui changed the subject and asked about the thing he had always been curious about.

"Great calamity..."

Yanagi Jun's eyes were somewhat deep, his brows were slightly furrowed, and after a long silence, he confessed:

"Actually... I don't know very well, but I can be sure of one thing, the great calamity definitely exists, and this great calamity will sweep across the four islands of Eastern Ying.

If we don't prepare early, my Eastern Ying land will be completely dissolved..."

"So, we must gain a foothold in the Central Plains?"

"That's right. Since ancient times, the Central Plains, the Divine Continent, has been the center of the world, with abundant resources, attracting the competition of forces from all sides. This kind of blessed land should naturally have a place for my Eastern Ying.

I don't ask to occupy the entire Central Plains, I just want to occupy a place of refuge for my Eastern Ying people. Unfortunately... the Central Plains people are narrow-minded and regard us as enemies."

"There is an ancient saying in the Central Plains, 'Those who are not of our race must have different hearts.' From this, we can be sure that it is difficult to gain a foothold in the Central Plains without using force."

Muto Kamui said in a deep voice.

"Yes, whether it's Martial Emperor City, Yan King Chen Yuan, or even the soon-to-be-destroyed Great Jin Sima Clan, they all regard Eastern Ying as barbarians and never give us a proper look.

There is a breath in my heart that cannot be expressed. If we really break through the Central Plains one day, we must enslave the warriors of the Central Plains and make them unable to stand up for generations to come."

Yanagi Jun's eyes were gloomy, and his face was full of murderous intent.

"What about the Buddhist sect? What about the Northern Barbarians? What about the Southern Border Monster Clan? As far as I know, the Central Plains is now surrounded by enemies on all sides. If the four sides can move together, they will inevitably divide the Central Plains."

Muto Kamui was not asleep and unaware of worldly affairs. He had been to the Central Plains alone, and he had also been to the Western Regions and the grasslands... knowing that they had also coveted the Central Plains for a long time.

"In recent times, I have not shown up in order to plan this matter. The Southern Border Demons have not yet responded, but the Western Regions Buddhist Sect has already shown the intention of joining forces.

As long as Eastern Ying can occupy Dong Province, the Buddhist sect will take action, starting from Lan Province, crossing Qing Province and Yun Province, and cutting off the thirteen provinces of the Central Plains from the middle.

As for the grasslands... I am also waiting for their response, but it can be predicted that they are preparing to take action. The three major royal courts have already formed a trend of alliance.

If the four sides besiege the Central Plains, even if Chen Yuan is really the Mandate of Heaven, he will not be able to stop it."

"I heard that in recent years, a peerless genius who is only seen once in a thousand years has emerged in the Central Plains, and he has risen to the top of the world in just a few years." Muto Kamui asked after a moment of silence.

"This person is named Chen Yuan, known as the Yan King. He has a million troops under his command, and half of the Central Plains has already been annexed by him. Moreover, the news you have received is a bit late.

A few days ago, he had already broken through the Sixth Realm and become an immortal. The time left for us... is running out."

"So?"

"So, I am not prepared to wait for the reply from the Northern Barbarian Grasslands. I have decided to take action to destroy Martial Emperor City. With your help, Martial Emperor City cannot stop the Eastern Ying army.

I don't believe that the barbarians on the grasslands can bear to remain inactive at such a good opportunity. Now, we are all allies standing on the same line.

If Eastern Ying is defeated, Chen Yuan will be able to free up his hands to deal with the grasslands!"

Yanagi Jun said solemnly.

"When will we take action?"

"Seven days later, whether the grasslands are willing or not, we can no longer wait. I have some premonition in my heart that if we don't take action, then the one who takes action in the future... may be Chen Yuan!"

"Okay, then I will take this opportunity to learn from the methods of this Central Plains' number one expert!" Muto Kamui smiled faintly, appearing quite confident. He had been nurturing his sword for a hundred years, just to learn from the heroes of the world.

This Chen Yuan is a good whetstone!

......

......

South Province, Nine Dragon Mountains.

Several days have passed since Chen Yuan's breakthrough. During these days, the news of his successful breakthrough has spread throughout the Central Plains and the world.

It has attracted countless pilgrims.

Some people wanted to take advantage of Chen Yuan's good mood after just breaking through and ask him to lecture so that they could obtain some immortal foundations.

Some people wanted to join the Yan army to get acquainted with him.

There were also some delusional people who believed that they had amazing talent and wanted to become Chen Yuan's disciples, thereby achieving rapid success.

In short, the Nine Dragon Mountains, which were once unknown and devoid of human traces, became popular after Chen Yuan's breakthrough. It can be said that he became famous overnight.

"I am Little Saber Champion, Feng Wudao, requesting an audience with His Highness the Yan King!"

Outside the mountains, a rather young-looking warrior stood in the void and said loudly.

"Hmph, what Little Saber Champion? Why have I never heard of it?"

Another crisp voice exploded, quite disdainful.

"That's right, when has our South Province ever produced a Saber Champion? It's simply ridiculous."

"Want to achieve rapid success? You must be crazy."

"Hahaha..."

Many people burst into laughter.

Feng Wudao, who called himself the Little Saber Champion, flushed red and snorted coldly:

"Since I entered the Jianghu, I have defeated all opponents of the same realm in Jiao Province. If I were a few years older, I would have already been on the Hidden Dragon Ranking. What are you? How dare you laugh at me?"

"Hahaha, so you're a little bumpkin from Jiao Province..."

His self-reporting of his origins caused even more ridicule from the crowd.

No matter when or where, regional discrimination always exists. At least within the thirteen provinces of the Central Plains, Jiao Province is the least prominent province.

It is known as a place that strategists do not contend for.

Inside, Gu Dao, Corpse Dao, and Demon Dao are mixed and chaotic. It is the second most chaotic place after Blood Province. Sometimes, the imperial court does not even send officials to guard it.

Naturally, it is looked down upon by the warriors of the Central Plains.

"If anyone is not convinced, feel free to fight me!"

"Oh, so powerful? Then why don't you dare to enter the Nine Dragon Mountains? Why do you only know how to babble here?" Someone taunted Feng Wudao, hoping that he would test the waters.

But Feng Wudao was not fooled at all. The Nine Dragon Mountains were a forbidden area. Before getting permission, all the people who went in had their corpses thrown out.

Who would dare to provoke a tiger's whiskers?

"I just don't want to offend the Yan King. I'm shouting here just to show my sincerity. Don't try to provoke me. If you are not convinced, you and I will fight.

If you have the guts, you can try entering the mountains. From then on, I will walk around you when I see you..."

"Heh... Jiao barbarian..."

And many people below remained silent. The impulsive people had already died, and the ones who remained would not be foolish enough to go in and die because of a few provocative words.

"Jiao Province Saber Champion Feng Wudao, requesting an audience with the Yan King."

Feng Wudao opened his mouth again.

The people below continued to discuss:

"This guy is really shameless. He was still a Little Saber Champion just now, and now he's a Saber Champion?"

"I suspect that his title of Little Saber Champion also came about in this way. He's really shameless."

"Do you think the Yan King will come out?"

"How is that possible? Don't you see what Feng Wudao is? A mere Core Realm expert wants the Yan King to show up? Besides, the phenomenon has passed so many days.

Maybe the Yan King has already returned to Shu Province. Going to Shu Province now might still be in time."

"With the Yan King in charge, Shu Province is the safest place, right?"

"That's for sure. I heard that the houses in Shu Province have already increased tenfold, especially those near the Yan King's mansion, which are even more expensive. Even the area on the street is counted into the value of the house."

"Tsk... Who did this? It couldn't be the Yan King, right? He's simply crazy about money..."

"How could the Yan King handle these small matters? It must be those officials who want to take the opportunity to make a fortune..."

"Heh..."

While everyone was discussing, suddenly, a soaring aura enveloped the heaven and earth, making many people a little breathless, but their faces were very excited.

"The Yan King has appeared!"

"Yan King, I am Feng Wudao, from Jiao Province. I regard the Yan King as my goal and hope to ask the Yan King for guidance."

"Your Highness the Yan King, I am Pan Qingqing, and I am..."

"Your Highness the Yan King, I am..."

"Noisy!"

A low shout full of extreme dissatisfaction exploded, and a big hand suddenly condensed in the void, pressing down with the force of heaven, crushing all those who reported their names to the ground.

"This is the Yan King's place of seclusion, how can you be allowed to cause trouble here? Within a quarter of an hour, I will slaughter this place. Those who don't leave will stay here to feed the wild beasts!"

It was Xiang Guangsheng's voice that resounded.

His tone was very dissatisfied. If these people had not stepped into the mountains, he would have crushed them to death with one palm.

"Go!"

"Run!"

Everyone woke up and quickly fled into the void.

Little Saber Champion Feng Wudao flushed red with shame and embarrassment. He inconspicuously covered his slightly wet pants and ran ahead of everyone with his head down.

A slight breeze swept up the smell of urine, causing countless people to frown...

.....

The commotion in front of the mountains was just a small episode. Chen Yuan was still stabilizing his realm, comprehending the mysteries of the inner world, and had no idea that a big hand had enveloped him.

As the sun set in the west, the reddish sky cast a ray of light, illuminating Chen Yuan's profile. His eyelashes trembled, and Chen Yuan opened his eyes without any expression.

Looking up at the sky, two beams of light instantly shot straight into the sky, stirring up the wind and clouds.

He had emerged!

"Congratulations to the Yan King on emerging."

Xiang Guangsheng quickly bowed and saluted.

"Thank you, Clan Leader Xiang..." Chen Yuan said faintly.

"You're too kind, you're too kind. It is this old man's blessing to be able to work for the Yan King."

Chen Yuan nodded and looked to his right, saying faintly:

"Friend, you have been observing for a long time, are you not ready to show yourself?"

"Jie Jie... The Yan King is indeed the Yan King. This old man's method of concealing his aura is unparalleled in the world, but I never thought that the Yan King would sense it. I am truly impressed.

No wonder you have been able to create such a foundation in just a few years!"

In the void, a vigorous voice sounded.

"Friend, you flatter me. May I ask what you have come for?"

"I am Su Ming of the Heavenly Demon Palace!"

"So it's the old Palace Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace, my respects..."

"Hehe, you're too kind, you're too kind..."
