Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!-Chapter 668 - 672: Invasion_1

「Two days later.」

In the Imperial Study, the scent of burning incense lingered in the air.

Qin Wudao sat at the head of the room, holding an ancient book, studying the method to ascend to the Heavenly Court. His brows furrowed at times, while at other moments, a smile flickered across his face.

Below him, the ministers of the Qin Dynasty held rubbings of the ancient book, reading diligently.

So that's how it is!

After almost an hour, Qin Wudao finished the ancient book, having roughly grasped the process of ascending to the Heavenly Court.

He also understood the meaning of "connecting Yin and Yang, constructing Reincarnation."

The essence of the world is divided into two realms: Yin and Yang.

After living beings die, they go to the Yin Realm to be reincarnated; this process is known as Reincarnation.

Connecting Yin and Yang meant building a passageway into the Yin Realm during the ascension to the Heavenly Court. In the eyes of the living, this was the Reincarnation passage.

However, constructing a Reincarnation passage was no easy task.

The Yin Realm existed in another dimension.

Only when one's cultivation reached the Taiyi Earthly Immortal Realm could the soul be detached from the body, crossing dimensions to enter the Yin Realm.

Generally speaking, only a power that had an Earthly Immortal at its helm could ascend to the Heavenly Court.

This also explained why there was only one Heavenly Court in the Red Dragon Starfield.

"Minister Jiang, can you enter the Underworld now?" Qin Wudao looked at Jiang Ziwen, asking curiously.

The greatest restriction to ascending to the Heavenly Court lay in whether one could enter the Underworld. If one could enter in advance and construct a Reincarnation passage with Fortune, then there would be no need for an Earthly Immortal Martial Artist to perform the soul-detachment technique.

"Responding to Your Majesty, as a deity of the Underworld, I can enter and leave the Underworld at any time!" At this point, Jiang Ziwen had also finished reading the ancient book, and he responded with a bow.

"That's great!"

"If Minister Jiang can enter the Underworld, it means we can ascend to the Heavenly Court at any time!"

"In the Heavenly Court, we will control the realm, condense purple-golden Fortune, increase cultivation speed by ten thousand times, and even after death, we can be reborn in the Qin Dynasty!"

"Living as Qin people, dying as Qin souls!"

Upon hearing Jiang Ziwen's words, the remaining ministers who had finished the ancient book discussed excitedly.

Ascending to the Heavenly Court offered numerous benefits. The greatest among them was the ability to utilize an independent Reincarnation passage during rebirth, allowing one to be reborn into the Saint's Court of the Qin Dynasty.

Many fallen powerhouses, or great experts who chose to cultivate again through Reincarnation, used this method to live another life and protect their own factions.

Atop the imperial throne, a rare smile also touched Qin Wudao's majestic face.

He looked up at the sea of Fortune. Immeasurable Fortune swirled within, and golden Fortune dragons swam. If not for the suppression of the Yu Zhou Ding, this power might have long ago broken through the heavens and earth and destroyed the universe.

It was time to ascend to the Heavenly Court!

「In the northern region of the human territories, the Blade's Edge Little Thousand World.」

This was a star with a diameter of three hundred million kilometers. The entire star was crimson, emanating a bloodred killing intent. Rolling Evil Qi made one feel as if they were on a battlefield.

In this vast world, only one million Human Warriors lived. They were all powerhouses from the various human factions and had formed an army.

Outside the world's sky, there were dozens of meteors. The periphery was set with Formations and built with watchtowers, all moving rapidly under the influence of gravity.

On each meteor, a thousand soldiers were stationed. Holding immortal weapons, their eyes like eagles, they vigilantly watched the starry sky, ensuring any slight movement could be promptly discovered.

Because this place was located on the edge of the human territories, one moment it might be calm, and the next, a shocking battle could erupt.

Not a single person dared to relax their vigilance.

"Stay alert! What we're guarding is the entire Human Race!" a Colonel, wearing blood-colored armor and hand resting on his sword, shouted loudly as he moved back and forth between the meteors.

Suddenly, a chilling white bone spear shot out from the depths of the distant starry sky. It was so fast that people could hardly react, wrapped in the power of death as it struck.

"Enem—"

The Colonel was shocked. Before the word "attack" even left his mouth, he was skewered by the bone spear. His immortal body shattered, and his blood dyed the sky red.

"Enemy attack!"

The soldiers stationed on the meteorites were taken aback but quickly reacted, activating the Formation to prepare for the enemy.

Smoke signals of immortal power were lit one after another. The dust rolled like a river of stars, fluttering across the starry sky, transmitting the signal of an attack.

Within the Blade's Edge Little Thousand World, the human soldiers who had been training saw the smoke signals. Without needing orders, they quickly formed ranks, conjured their army spirit, and flew out of the world's sky.

"To the north!"

"Those demons have invaded!"

In the only Immortal City, a white-robed general suddenly stood up. His eyes flashed with an icy light as he unsheathed his Immortal Sword and flew towards the starry sky.

His name was Li Shouxuan, the Ninth Elder of the Sky Sword Pavilion and a late-stage Profound Immortal Martial Artist. Due to his long-term stationing at the border, he had transformed from a pure Swordsman into a general.

"Kill!"

In the endless starry sky, an army of fifty thousand, riding on a Demon Cloud, swiftly closed in on the Blade's Edge Little Thousand World.

The Bone Demon Army's commander, the Bone Demon, stood in the center, holding a bone spear. His body was gaunt, almost like a skeleton, and he emanated a violent and savage aura.

In just a moment, the Bone Demon Army drew close to the Blade's Edge Little Thousand World.

The great war thus broke out.

"Not good!"

"It's the Bone Demon Army, one of the three great armies of the Extreme Demon Palace!"

"Quickly light the six Immortal Element smoke signals and send a message to the rear! The Extreme Demon Palace has invaded!"

Upon seeing the invading enemy, Li Shouxuan's expression changed sharply, becoming chillingly serious. After issuing loud commands, he raised his Immortal Sword and launched an attack.

A million human soldiers followed.

Even when facing one of the three great armies of the Extreme Demon Palace, their eyes were firm, showing no fear. Not a single person retreated.

Because here, this was the Human Race's first line of defense.

Behind them were their loved ones, their people.

To die protecting their loved ones, they would have no regrets even in a thousand deaths!

To fight for their race, death was an honor!

"A bunch of ragtag troops!"

The Bone Demon sneered, his eyes sharp as lightning. He swept his gaze over the human defenders, enhanced the power of his army spirit, and swung his bone spear. An explosive wave of Demonic Qi rolled out, like a raging demon dragon.

Above his head, a Demon Cloud gathered. The Grand Dao of Demons manifested, forming a skeletal army spirit dozens of miles high that exuded an overwhelming might.

Not in the slightest weaker than a peak Profound Immortal Martial Artist!

BANG!

In an instant, thousands of human soldiers were killed.

Even Li Shouxuan was struck by the terrifying spear energy and sent flying, crashing into a meteorite, which then exploded.

He and the Bone Demon had comparable cultivation; both were late-stage Profound Immortal Martial Artists. The only difference was that the Bone Demon led an elite army, while he commanded an ordinary one.

"Kill!"

"Kill them!"

One after another, human soldiers plunged forward, passing through the blood mist floating in the starry sky, and engaged the Bone Demon Army.

Many soldiers were killed by the bone spear as soon as they approached.

Yet, an endless stream of human soldiers still charged forward, gritting their teeth, undaunted.

One man!

Ten men!

A thousand men!

Tens of thousands...

They were like a sturdy wall, forcibly blocking the Bone Demon Army—which was far more powerful than them—from advancing even an inch beyond the perimeter of the Blade's Edge Little Thousand World.

"Fight to the death!"

"For the Human Race, fight to the death!"

Tragic cries echoed across the stellar horizon as countless human soldiers fought fearlessly to their deaths.
