The Path of the Martial Arts BOSS-Chapter 1132 - 157: Changes in the Celestial Phenomena

By the coast of the East Sea, the reincarnated Suzan Ming Venerate stood in mid-air, his raging aura complemented by the enormous shadowy Dharma Image behind him, and the fierce energy surged towards the continent like a wild tide, making the warriors rushing from the East Province feel a sense of oppression.

"The situation is dire, Japan has unexpectedly revealed a third Supreme warrior, it seems an invasion is imminent." Jiang Haogang looked grimly at the figure recklessly emitting ferocious energy, mumbling to himself.

The snow had stopped half a month ago, but Japan hadn't shown any signs of attack, Jiang Haogang and others naturally suspected Japan was planning something. But they didn't expect that the anomaly was to wait for the appearance of Japan's third Supreme warrior.

"Patriarch, what should we do?" asked a warrior who came alongside him.

"Withdraw for now, notify the court's Supreme warriors to arrive," Jiang Haogang responded without hesitation.

Facing three Supreme warriors head-on would be like hitting a stone with an egg. Although there's a chance to kill a Supreme warrior by having more warriors in the Divine Communication Realm, this chance is extremely slim, and sacrificing the Divine Communication Realm warriors of East Province might still not ensure killing or repelling the three Supreme warriors.

Therefore, seeking aid is the best option.

Within the revived Human Emperor's Spiritual Sense, the Eighth Generation Emperor Lie Mountain was the ancestor of the Jiang Family, and no matter how the Daqian Court acts, they could never forsake the Jiang Family, assistance is certain to arrive.

If the Human Emperor personally comes, repelling Japan is not impossible.

However, as Jiang Haogang intended to retreat, the Suzan Ming Venerate in the sky would never agree.

Like a mountain, the sword aura swept forward, its fiercest and most evil energy transforming into eight serpent heads wrapped around the sword aura, lunging at the group to bite.

"Boom——"

The sword aura plowed a long sword scar on the ground, and the fierce energy merged into the earth, consuming the thick Earth Qi within.

"You can't leave."

Suzan Ming Venerate surged forward like a red whirlwind, sword light fragmented into eight forms, fierce Sword Qi swept across, turning into eight blood-stained serpent heads.

Slaying Eightfold, the sword move that Suzan Ming Venerate used to slay the Orochi in the past, and which Yagyu Munenori once combined with the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword to sever eight parts of Northern Zhou's Dragon Energy; today, with Suzan Ming Venerate personally executing it, its ferocity was even greater.

"Ah——"

The sword light passed through, and three warriors accompanying Jiang Haogang were decapitated, dying on the spot, and though Jiang Haogang deflected the sword light with a precious item, he lost an arm.

"Light Stream Shadow."

Disregarding the detached hand, Jiang Haogang frantically propelled his True Qi, transforming into a streak shooting away rapidly.

Yet, after executing this sword, Suzan Ming Venerate did not pursue. He closed his eyes and spread his arms wide, his True Qi transformed into eight serpent heads probing into the earth, continuously drawing Earth Qi.

"Such power... ah~" Suzan Ming Venerate seemed to moan, "I guessed right, after reincarnation combining with Orochi's Essence, I can gain that Demon Beast's superpower······"

"The superpower to devour Dragon Vein Earth Qi."

Since humans fully claimed the earth's dominance ten thousand years ago, those Barbaric Strange Beasts completely withdrew from history's stage. After the Dragon Vein was successfully formed, the environmental changes made even the survival of Exotic Beasts difficult.

By present day, it's hard to find even a trace of such Exotic Beasts, except for the Qingyu Family's White Phoenix that's showing signs of atavism due to high-quality nourishment.

However, the world is never static, and everything has opposition, there's no absolute principle.

Under the extreme targeting from the Human Dao Will within the Dragon Vein against Barbaric Strange Beasts, an Exotic Beast specifically devouring Dragon Vein Power emerged on the Extreme East Island Country.

Orochi, the Demon Beast specializing in devouring Dragon Vein and Earth Qi.

This Demon Beast once ravaged Japan, consuming Dragon Vein and Earth Qi, causing frequent earthquakes and occasional volcanic eruptions on a small island. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

To kill Orochi, Suzan Ming Venerate in those days even paid the price of lingering life for hundreds of years.

This Demon Beast's superpower is a formidable existence in every aspect, and now appearing in Suzan Ming Venerate, it's even more troublesome.

Japan's army remained inactive for several days, just to wait for Suzan Ming Venerate's successful reincarnation.

He is precisely the weapon against Daqian's Human Emperor.

"Prepare to march!"

Sun and Moon appeared simultaneously in the sky as Japan's other two Supreme warriors—Amaterasu and Yueyejian manifested.

From the sun disc came a loud voice from the Sun God of Extreme East: "March forward, occupy East Province!"

With this command, Japan's army once again landed, advancing inland.

This time, a real war is coming.

······························

That night, an urgent report was delivered to the Northern Zhou Imperial Palace.

Working late into the night, the Northern Zhou Emperor received the urgent report at the first moment, his face revealing a peculiar expression, "Japan wants to bring about their own destruction."

Indeed, Emperor Zhou felt Japan was courting death.

Despite having a third Supreme warrior, Japan still remains at a disadvantage compared to Daqian.

Even if Amaterasu and Yueyejian combined are almost among the top three of the Heavenly List, the Human Emperor they face is vying for the first position.

As for Suzan Ming Venerate, although the urgent report did not mention the ability to devour the Dragon Vein, Qingyu Xiang could guess he had his own reliance.

However, so what if he has reliance, a newly reincarnated Supreme warrior, even if fully regaining peak strength quickly, cannot match the Human Emperor.

"But Japan isn't foolish; they wouldn't go to their death without some assurance," Emperor Zhou mused again.

While pondering what tactics Japan might employ, voices called from outside the hall, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have urgent business——"

There is yet another urgent report······

Emperor Zhou reckoned that if he didn't need sleep, another ordinary Emperor might have died suddenly by now.

"Come in, Baili Shensuan."

His voice reached outside the hall, and the guards withdrew their blocking weapons.

Baili Shensuan hurried into the hall, saying, "Your Majesty, the celestial phenomena have changed, a red star's light has appeared in the night sky with a lurking ominous aura, an extremely unlucky omen."

"Oh~" Emperor Zhou chuckled, "Is there any lack of military affairs these days?"

Over the past few years, tens of thousands have died, constant battles, and the recent urgent report says another war has resumed in the East Province, there's truly no lack of military affairs.

Though he said this, Emperor Zhou still walked out with Baili Shensuan to gaze at the night sky.

Because even in these chaotic times, omens are difficult to show, and previously during major battles like the northern crusade on the grassland, the celestial phenomena hadn't changed.

The current anomaly indicates that even the confused Heavenly Mechanism can't cover it; calling it a major misfortune isn't exaggerated.
