Dual Cultivation God Returns-Chapter 568 Day of Reckoning

"This is...

Is there any response from the Alchemy Tower? What of the Frozen Garden Palace?!"

An old man, the Valley Master of the Profound Martial Arts Valley stood and looked with wide eyes at the entire fighting force of the Brilliant Sun Temple assembled before the gates of his Sect.

"N... no Valley Master. We have been sending messages but..."

A Grand Elder standing next to him replied, as another communication talisman flared up in his hands, signifying another message sent out.

He was the last Grand Elder of this Sect, the only one who did not participate in the raid on the Brilliant Sun Temple during the Carnage of the Northern Sea.

That incident has left this Sect severely crippled, as they lost a good half of their Sect Protectors, more than half of their Elders and all but one of their Grand Elders.

Thus the army standing at their doors meant certain doom for this Sect, as they desperately sent signals for help with no one listening on the other end.

With the retribution in sight for their actions in the Frozen Garden Palace during the Winter Forest Hunt and trying to attack the Brilliant Sun Temple, there were no signs of those who conspired with them, leaving them to face the consequences alone.

Several dozens of figures were moving through the Fantian Kingdom's territory, but they were not moving toward the Capital.

The man leading them was wearing a gray robe with a large and heavy saber behind his back.

Suddenly, the whole group stopped as they were passing a small canyon, the leader squinting his eyes while looking forward, a grin appearing on his face.

"Hahaha! And here I thought I would be hunting down some mice that managed to get away. Turns out there's a more exciting meal before that!"

The leader, a man that Old Yen has once met in the Tingren Kingdom during the Carnage of the Northern Sea, Fen Gigyu, laughed out loud as he recognized the masked man that slipped away from him once before.

Old Yen stood on the road without any disguise, figures of his subordinates and members of the Thousand Eyes Information Bureau appearing on the sides of the small canyon as Fen Gigyu's subordinates were looking all around them with caution, unsheathing their weapons.

"What, a dog that has left with his tail raised high before decided to come play again? Just so you know, you won't get away this time!"

Fen Gigyu's grin only widened at the sight of Old Yen's calm and collected face.

"Mm, we will finish this today"

Old Yen slowly nodded, and then his short-cut hair was pushed up by the current of Spiritual Qi as he released his cultivation equaling Fen Gigyu at Core Reformation Realm, causing the latter to widen his eyes in shock.

'Impossible... wasn't he in Foundation Building Realm just a few months ago? Was he concealing his cultivation like now...?'

Fen Gigyu's mind ran through the possibilities, arriving at the only plausible explanation he knew, which was half-right as Old Yen did conceal his cultivation, but he was only at the Core Formation Realm when they met before.

"Hehehe, but... do you really think having the same cultivation realm is all it takes to fight me? You're too naive!!!"

The man then grinned again, grabbing the saber handle, and taking it off from his back as Old Yen calmly took out a sword.

"Attack!!!"

A colossal army moved at this very same moment from the plains surrounding the Capital of the Azure Eagle Empire toward the city.

There were almost 2 million veiled troops of varying cultivation realms, though the absolute majority was in Qi Condensation Realms and lower. Their number was twice that of the entire Imperial Army which was supposed to be the strongest military force on the continent.

There were also twenty thousand Golden Ox Mercenaries, the majority of their remaining forces after the purge of their branches in the Six Kingdoms that happened in the past few weeks, as they lost most of their members and even the headquarters in the Gutian Kingdom.

Around 300 Monarchs led the army forward.

However, there were only 4 Mortal Transcendence Realm experts among the entire army, including 2 from the Golden Ox Mercenary Corps.

Even with Gu Zhen's resources, raising Mortal Transcendence Realm experts was incredibly difficult in this environment. It could be seen where he put priority, or rather, where he perceived the most resistance by the number of cultivators in the Mortal Transcendence Realms sent there.

There were also one Mortal Transcendence Monarch sent to the Tingren Kingdom who was now returning to the North to assist those in Fantian Kingdom, and three more sent deep South to the Liugwei Kingdom, which now faced an uprising as the Royal Family was besieged by rebels in the capital.

Gu Zhen knew about Cao Xiang and Cao Mei being among Wu Long's women, so he knew they were likely to move against the usurper King of the Liugwei Kingdom amidst this chaos.

And he was right, as Cao Xiang commanded all of the loyalists of the previous King of Liugwei that she has led for the past century, storming the capital along with her daughter, finally on the verge of the end to a century-old conflict that has plagued her mind and burdened her heart all these years.

"Today, the Usurper Liu Kong, who murdered his father, King Liu Raihu, will finally meet his day of reckoning!!! The noble spirit of the Liugwei Kingdom's Royal Family will rise once more as this land will be free of this vermin!"

Cao Xiang spoke as her voice was amplified by Spiritual Qi.

"Forward! Shatter the chains of the past century!"

"Take down that Fake King!"

"Banish the Usurper!"

Their army of predominantly Revolving Qi Realm cultivators, with a good number of Foundation Building Realm experts, who were part of the Liugwei Escort Agency and Liugwei Mercenary Corps ran forward with earth-shattering roars, followed by a crowd of rebels that have been growing in this country for the past months with a shadowy support from the Thousand Eyes Information Bureau.

Their opponents, being a common mortal kingdom which only had 2-3 Revolving Qi Realm practitioners as the top officers, shuddered from the mere sight of them approaching, as the current King almost soiled his pants watching from a tall pagoda of the Royal Palace, realizing that his crime from over a century ago has finally caught up with him.

"Hahaha! Looks like we're right on time"

A voice came from the sky as three figures of Monarchs rapidly approached from the North, their appearance like a Divine Sign in the King's eyes as hope lit up in them.

"Ooh! Lord Gu has not abandoned us! Hahaha!"

He shouted with a thunderous roar full of energy, only to freeze in the next moment.

"Continue the attack!"

Cao Xiang gave an order, as she flew up, closely followed by Cao Mei and Wei Lan who came to support them.

The three Monarchs who arrived with smiles on their faces, overjoyed at seeing the targets that they were told to capture alive, widened their eyes when those targets released the techniques covering up their true cultivation and flew up to meet them midway.
