Chapter 93

The turmoil involving the four ancient nations, although not widely known throughout the entire Immortal Realm,

was still causing a great stir in the nearby dozens of provinces.

At first, no one was optimistic about the Vermilion Bird Ancient Nation, believing the outcome was already determined.

The Vermilion Bird Ancient Nation would either submit or be destroyed.

But in the end, the news that spread was shocking to the world.

The Divine Son of the Jun family led the Four Guardians of Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain to come to their aid, displaying overwhelming dominance.

The person behind the Azure Dragon Ancient Nation also came to light, revealed to be the Champion Marquis of the Panwu Divine Dynasty.

The following news was even more shocking, making everyone's scalp tingle.

The Divine Son of the Jun family forcefully exterminated the Champion Marquis's avatar.

Even the ruler of the Azure Dragon Nation was casually slain by his protector.

This confrontation between the Divine Son of the Jun family and the Champion Marquis of the Panwu Divine Dynasty ended with Jun Xiaoyao's overwhelming victory.

However, many people knew that the temperamental and arrogant Champion Marquis would never tolerate such a significant loss.

Sure enough, a few days later, news came from within the Panwu Divine Dynasty.

The Champion Marquis Yang Pan was challenging Jun Xiaoyao to a duel at the peak of the Forbidden City.

And the chosen date was precisely the day when the Imperial Princess Wu Mingyue of the Panwu Divine Dynasty was selecting her prince consort.

This news, like a boulder dropped into the ocean, caused a massive upheaval.

Many people understood that Yang Pan had ulterior motives.

On the day Wu Mingyue selects her prince consort, countless forces would come to the Panwu Divine Dynasty to witness the ceremony.

In such a situation, the heat and influence of the duel would reach its peak.

If Yang Pan could truly defeat Jun Xiaoyao, the news would spread throughout the entire Wasteland Immortal Realm in the shortest time possible.

At that time, the invincible legend of the Divine Son of the Jun family would be instantly shattered.

The Champion Marquis could then rise to power on the back of Jun Xiaoyao's reputation.

It had to be said that Yang Pan's choice was somewhat cunning.

"Is the Champion Marquis so confident in himself?" many people were discussing.

"You can't underestimate the Champion Marquis. He has been recognized by the Pan Emperor's Life Sword, and there are even rumors that he is the reincarnation of the Panwu Emperor."

"That's probably just a rumor, but the Champion Marquis is indeed not weak and is considered a top-tier figure among the younger generation."

"I wonder if the Divine Son of the Jun family will accept the challenge?"

"Let's wait and see..."

While the rest of the Immortal Realm was eagerly awaiting Jun Xiaoyao's response,

Jun Xiaoyao did not send out any news.

This surprised many people.

Was the usually high-profile and ostentatious Divine Son of the Jun family backing down?

What they didn't know was that

at that moment, Jun Xiaoyao was inside the palace of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Nation, studying the bronze compass.

He had already combined the four compass parts into a complete compass.

The complete compass appeared quite ancient and mysterious, carrying the aura of time.

However, Jun Xiaoyao temporarily did not know how to use it.

"Perhaps the time to use it has not yet arrived?" Jun Xiaoyao speculated.

There had been no news of the Bronze Immortal Hall appearing in the entire Immortal Realm for a long time.

Perhaps the time had not yet come.

When there was news of the Bronze Immortal Hall again, this compass would likely play a significant role.

Thinking of this, Jun Xiaoyao put the bronze compass into his spatial magical artifact.

"This journey has been quite fruitful," Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.

The most important thing was obtaining the bronze compass.

Secondly, he had signed the ancient holy weapon, Phoenix Cry at Qishan, in the palace.

Additionally, he had unified the Four Symbols Ancient Nations.

The current strength of the Four Symbols Ancient Nations far exceeded that of the previously scattered four ancient nations.

Although it still could not match the Eternal Dao Traditions, it was already considered a very top-tier force.

"Challenging me at the peak of the Forbidden City, huh?" Jun Xiaoyao murmured to himself.

The news of the Champion Marquis's challenge had been causing a stir recently, and Jun Xiaoyao had naturally known about it long ago.

He did not respond because he had been studying the bronze compass.

However, now, Jun Xiaoyao did not plan to respond.

He had already planned to personally attend on the day Wu Mingyue selects her prince consort.

As for the Champion Marquis, he would just suppress him at that time.

"Yang Pan, what lies ahead is hell..." Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

He knew that Yang Pan possessed the Pan Emperor's Life Sword and was also a person of destiny.

In his eyes, that was just a green, lush blade of grass.

While Jun Xiaoyao was planning how to harvest Yang Pan,

far away in one of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, the Black Desert Province.

This was a sparsely populated Dao Province, with vast stretches of desolate mountains and deserts.

In the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, it was considered one of the provinces with fewer cultivators and more desolation.

At that moment, outside a mountain range exuding a wild aura in the Black Desert Province,

a young man dressed in green, with a refined and handsome appearance, was kneeling on the ground, his eyes bloodshot, and howling to the sky.

It was Xiao Chen.

After the Yuan Tian Secret Treasury, Xiao Chen, under the guidance of the Azure Dragon Senior, came to the Black Desert Province to search for the ancient nest of the Ancestor Dragon, where an ancient prodigy was buried.

But just now, he had unexpectedly learned about the news of the Azure Dragon Ancient Nation from a passing cultivator.

His father, the ruler of the Azure Dragon Nation, had been killed by Jun Xiaoyao's protector.

The entire Azure Dragon Ancient Nation had been destroyed and merged into the Four Symbols Ancient Nation.

Xiao Chen had even lost his identity as the crown prince of the Azure Dragon Nation.

He had become a completely background-less commoner.

"Killing my father, destroying my nation, Jun Xiaoyao, I, Xiao Chen, will peel your skin, extract your tendons, crush your bones, and scatter your ashes. I will not rest until this vow is fulfilled!"

Xiao Chen howled to the sky, extreme hatred and anger surging in his heart.

Beside him, the soul body of the Azure Dragon Senior appeared, his old face extremely ugly.

He had said that Xiao Chen was a son of the nation, but now, even the nation was gone.

More importantly, that thing was gone.

"Alas, the bronze compass must have already fallen into the hands of the Divine Son of the Jun family. This person has truly planned too deeply," the Azure Dragon Senior sighed deeply.

They did not know that Jun Xiaoyao had already started preparing to subdue the four ancient nations from the moment he met Bai Yuer.

As for the bronze compass, it was an unexpected bonus.

"Ancestor, I must become stronger. I must kill that Jun Xiaoyao, I must kill him!"

Xiao Chen's eyes were bloodshot, his veins almost bursting, and he seemed to be possessed by madness.

"Xiao Chen, calm down, your Dao heart is about to be corrupted!" the Azure Dragon Senior frowned and shouted coldly.

"Corrupted, ha, so what if I'm corrupted? I must kill Jun Xiaoyao, no matter what the cost!"

Xiao Chen's refined face twisted, looking like a fierce ghost.

"You have forgotten that you still have two trump cards, the Supreme Blood in the ancient nest, and Wu Mingyue and the Panwu Divine Dynasty," the Azure Dragon Senior said.

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Xiao Chen's head, instantly cooling him down.

"That's right, I haven't lost yet. I still have Mingyue. I will marry her, and she will definitely help me," Xiao Chen took a deep breath.

Thinking of the peerless beauty, Xiao Chen's mood gradually calmed down.

Even though he had lost his father and his nation,

at least, he still had a beauty who would accompany and help him.

However, Xiao Chen did not know that

Wu Mingyue had hidden from him the fact that she was Jun Xiaoyao's female slave.

If Xiao Chen found out in the end, it was hard to imagine how mad he would become.
