Chapter 92

The ruler of the prestigious Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom, the first of the four great ancient kingdoms, was struck down with a single move, his head rolling to the ground.

Blood splattered across the sky, a scene of great tragedy.

Everyone was stunned, never expecting a sage to be so easily killed.

The ruler of the Azure Dragon Kingdom's head fell to the ground, his expression frozen in shock, confusion, and disbelief.

It seemed he was puzzled: how could a sage like himself be killed with a single move?

But it didn't stop there. The killing edge of the qin music continued, charging towards the four sage puppets.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed.

Two of the sage puppets were directly destroyed, cut in half at the waist.

The remaining two puppets were severely damaged, though not completely disintegrated, they were in shambles.

The entire battlefield fell silent, so quiet that a pin could be heard dropping.

Champion Marquis's pupils trembled violently, revealing a trace of disbelief.

Could Jun Xiaoyao's guardian be that strong?

Originally, Yang Pan thought that even if Jun Xiaoyao had a guardian, it would likely only be at the sage level.

Higher-level experts generally wouldn't be willing to serve as personal guardians.

Jun Xiaoyao's guardian clearly possessed strength far beyond the sage level.

"Could it be a Sage King?" Yang Pan's face was grim.

Since becoming the Champion Marquis, he had never suffered such a significant loss.

Now, his side had lost almost all of its high-level combatants, and the two remaining damaged puppets had almost no fighting power left.

On Jun Xiaoyao's side, aside from the terrifying guardian, there were still three sages.

With the armies of the White Tiger Ancient Kingdom and the Black Tortoise Ancient Kingdom defecting,

the tide had turned against the Champion Marquis.

Seeing this situation, Yang Pan took a deep breath and said, "Jun Xiaoyao, do you really want to oppose this Marquis? Why don't we each take a step back?"

Yang Pan wasn't foolish. At this point, if he continued to fight, he would be the one to suffer.

"Hmph, you were so strong just a moment ago, and now you want to take a step back?" Jun Xiaoyao sneered.

"Jun Xiaoyao, I am giving you face. Opposing me will bring you no good!" Yang Pan's expression was unpredictable.

"Do I need your face? Besides, I have so many enemies; do I need one more stablehand?" Jun Xiaoyao's expression was indifferent.

He said no more and raised his hand.

A fierce golden aura rose into the air, forming a lifelike golden divine elephant, as if it could suppress the universe.

Facing the Champion Marquis's avatar, Jun Xiaoyao didn't need to use any great powers; a single palm strike was enough to end the battle.

"Jun Xiaoyao, you are digging your own grave!" Yang Pan roared, unleashing his great powers.

But as a mere avatar, without the Panhuang Life Sword by his side, how could he be a match for Jun Xiaoyao?

Pfft!

Jun Xiaoyao's palm struck down, directly smashing Yang Pan's avatar into a bloody mist, shattering it to pieces.

Seeing this, everyone felt their scalps tingle.

The Champion Marquis's avatar was killed with a single palm strike.

"Has the Jun Family's Divine Son become this powerful?" Many generals were astonished.

Their realms were several levels higher than Jun Xiaoyao's, but seeing his fierce demeanor, they all felt a sense of dread.

At the same moment Jun Xiaoyao shattered Yang Pan's avatar,

in the distant Panwu Divine Dynasty, within a magnificent hall adorned with gold and purple, a furious roar echoed.

"Jun Xiaoyao, I, Yang Pan, will never reconcile with you!"

Hearing this, the attendants and servants outside the hall turned pale, their faces filled with panic.

When Yang Pan was angry, he was more terrifying than a demon.

"Some of us heard the name of the Jun Family's Divine Son. What grudge does the Marquis have with him?" some subordinates thought in fear.

At that moment, Yang Pan's cold voice echoed from inside the hall.

"Bring me the Marquis's order. Spread the news that I, the Champion Marquis Yang Pan, will challenge the Jun Family's Jun Xiaoyao at the peak of the Forbidden City in the imperial palace of the Panwu Divine Dynasty!"

"The time will be set on the day of Wu Mingyue's selection of a prince. I will crush Jun Xiaoyao in front of all the forces in the Immortal Realm!"

Hearing this, all the servants around the hall were petrified, their eyes wide open, and they drew in a sharp breath.

The Champion Marquis of the Panwu Divine Dynasty challenging the Jun Family's Divine Son—this was no small matter. If the news spread, it would cause a great upheaval!

Especially since the time was set on the day of Wu Mingyue's selection of a prince. How many forces would be attracted to the Panwu Divine Dynasty then?

It was unimaginable...

"A grand era of genius rivalry is about to begin. I hope the Marquis can laugh to the end," an old servant sighed.

Meanwhile, in the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom,

Jun Xiaoyao was unaware that Yang Pan was so enraged that he wanted to challenge him.

But even if he knew, Jun Xiaoyao probably wouldn't be fazed.

Daring to provoke him?

A single palm strike would be enough to suppress him.

The countless people around him still had shock in their eyes.

But Jun Xiaoyao's expression was calm.

Killing an avatar of Yang Pan was not a big deal to him.

Jun Xiaoyao's gaze fell on a ring among the blood and gore left by Yang Pan's avatar.

He reached out and grabbed it.

The ring had a soul seal, but Jun Xiaoyao casually activated the true spirit within his divine palace.

The true spirit, a miniature version of Jun Xiaoyao, released a powerful divine soul force.

Although Jun Xiaoyao's physical body was terrifying, his divine soul cultivation had not been neglected.

He had been practicing the Chaotic Divine Mill Visualization Technique all along.

Jun Xiaoyao's divine soul force easily broke the ring's seal.

He didn't care about the miscellaneous items inside.

What he cared about were the bronze compass components.

Sure enough, three bronze compass components were inside.

"Yang Pan, Yang Pan, after all your scheming, you still ended up being outsmarted by me. You're just a second-rate Xiao Chen," Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.

Yang Pan's painstaking plans ultimately benefited Jun Xiaoyao.

He knew that Yang Pan must be furious enough to explode on the spot.

Jun Xiaoyao stored the three compass components in his spatial magic tool.

With this, he had collected all four compass components.

However, it was clearly not the time to study them.

Jun Xiaoyao glanced down at the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom's army, where every face was deathly pale.

The generals' eyes revealed a hint of hatred.

After all, their ruler had indirectly died at Jun Xiaoyao's hands.

"Spread the Divine Son's order: all officers of the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom, from the rank of soldier and above, are to be killed," Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.

"Yes!"

Without waiting for the Vermilion Bird Kingdom's ruler to agree, the White Tiger Kingdom's ruler and the Black Tortoise Kingdom's ruler hurriedly responded.

Since they had defected, they now needed to show their loyalty.

Soon, they had thoroughly eliminated the Azure Dragon Kingdom's generals, and the soldiers all surrendered.

Next, Jun Xiaoyao issued an order to unify the four ancient kingdoms into the Four Symbols Ancient Kingdom.

The ruler of the Vermilion Bird Kingdom became the ruler of the Four Symbols Ancient Kingdom.

And his successor was Bai Yuer.

The turmoil in the four ancient kingdoms was thus quelled.

But the waves had only just begun...
