Deity Hero: Me! Gaining Disciples Makes Me Stronger! Chapter 342: The Attack

Chapter 342: The Attack

The crowd below burst into an uproar.

No one dared to say another word against Qin Hongmiao.

Otherwise, it would only cause them misery.

"Today, we'll take down the Cai clan first, and then the Xuan clan. Go and make preparations."

The people below all broke out in cold sweat and glanced at each other.

Considering the safety of their lives, they temporarily agreed.

After all, if they did not agree, Hongmiao would make them suffer.

He leaned on the throne and lazily observed the moving crowd below.

He had a reason for ordering them to do so.

He was now a mere semi Heavenly King. During the hundreds of thousands of years of being trapped, he had already reached the peak of his cultivation.

It was unfortunate for him that he did not have any divine essence to allow him to advance further.

Otherwise, he would have already achieved the breakthrough to the Heavenly King Realm a long time ago.

He currently only had a few kilograms of divine essence in his possession. That was all he could gather from the entire Great Qin dynasty.

It was obvious that it was not enough for Hongmiao to make the breakthrough he desired.

This was the main reason he needed to first rule over the entire Heaven Region to gather the resources of the Cai and Xuan clans for his personal use.

Secondly, he wanted to order people from the two clans to gather more divine essence for him.

He only needed about 50 kilograms of divine essence and he would have a high chance of making the breakthrough to the Heavenly King Realm.

At that stage, even if a senior Heavenly King came after him, he would not be afraid at all.

To maximize the army's efficiency, Hongmiao hurriedly descended from the throne to lead the charge and prepare for the war.

As for the Cai and Xuan clans, they had also caught wind of the news some time ago.

The members of the Xuan clan looked at each other. They had not expected the Elder of the Great Qin dynasty to be so overbearing.

Nevertheless, they would not give in so easily.

To counter the enemy's plans, the Elder of the Xuan clan gathered people to the Cai clan.

They joined forces with the Cai clan to attack the people of the Great Qin dynasty. It was to send a message to let their Elder know that their era was over.

Of course, Hongmiao was not a foolhardy person.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to lead the Great Qin dynasty to such greatness in the past.

As a precaution, Hongmiao sent jade talismans to a few of his Heavenly King friends, inviting them to a.s.sist in case anything unexpected happened.

Hongmiao felt that he was more gentle than any of his friends.

Similar to him, they were all considered the strongest in the Sage Realm.

However, they barged into several sects in other greater regions to rob them of resources. Now, a few of them had already attained the Heavenly King status.

Hongmiao thought that he had chosen a more stable method.

In the evening, under his leaders.h.i.+p, the Great Qin dynasty brought their army to the Cai clan's territory to face them.

The situation was not quite as he had expected. The experts of the Cai family knew more about the situation than he did.

Hongmiao could not fathom how incompetent his subordinates were in collecting intelligence, missing out on such a crucial piece of information.

The Elder of the Cai clan greeted him.

"Elder Qin, why would you do such a thing?"

"Cut the c.r.a.p. There is no room for your idle chatter. Either surrender or die!"

As he spoke, Hongmiao's aura spread out, and a powerful pressure pressed down on Elder Cai's head.

It felt as if he was shouldering the Sun, Moon, and stars, an incomparable pressure.

"Hehe, we respectfully address you as the Elder because we are giving you face. We advise you to leave immediately. Your era is history."

Hongmiao looked at the other person with a sidelong glance, staring at him with some curiosity.

He did not seem to be a part of the Cai clan.

"He is the Elder of the Xuan clan."

Hearing the information from his follower, Hongmiao nodded his head.

He did not expect the Xuan clan to come looking for the Cai clan. It could not get any better. It was the perfect opportunity to defeat them all in one fell swoop.

"Good, very good. Well said, well said!"

Following that, his aura spread even further and his killing intent soared to the sky as he stared at the two Elders.

"Since the two of you are so ignorant, don't blame me for what's coming next."

Immediately after, he launched a direct attack on Elder Cai.

The two Elders' faces changed drastically. This attack was nothing more than an ordinary strike, but the two of them could feel the immense power within it.

Their opponent was one of the strongest in the Sage Realm.

It would be a miracle if the two of them could fight against him with their power level.

They both then mustered their spiritual energy to defend themselves and empowered their defense with numerous spiritual treasures.

But facing this overpowering attack, it was completely useless.

The treasures were effortlessly pierced through one after another, and the fatal attack was already approaching the two Elders.

Just as they gave up resisting and their allies closed their eyes in despair, a spatial crack appeared between them, and a pair of well-defined hands lightly flicked the attack, causing it to dissipate.

Hongmiao's eyes trembled imperceptibly.

A slender figure walked out from within.

It was Xuan Yi.

"Xuan Yi, you're finally back."

"Yes, leave this to me."

"You're Xuan Yi of the Xuan clan, right? You've finally shown yourself. I thought you were a coward."

"How about this, I'll give you a chance. On behalf of the Xuan clan, kneel and surrender to me and I'll spare your life, what do you think about that?"

Facing Hongmiao's humiliation, Xuan Yi's expression slowly turned cold.

His white robes fluttered in the wind, and he stood with his hands behind his back as he looked at Hongmiao and said, "Nonsense."

Hearing his reply, Hongmiao got so angry that he laughed, and his hair stood on end.

"You foolish child, you're courting death."

"You're just a fellow who was forgotten by time. You've been trapped in the Ancient Battlefield for over a hundred thousand years without making any progress. If I were you, I would have killed myself long ago."

"You're just lucky to have lived a little longer. You're all just a few prisoners. Do you really think you're worthy?"

At this moment, Hongmiao was already seething with anger. He glared fiercely at Xuan Yi as if he was about to spew fire.

It was very obvious that this had hit his sore spot.

In these hundred thousand years, Hongmiao had long reached the semi Heavenly King level.

The rest of the time was spent waiting day after day. There was no joy at all.

Furthermore, there was no chance at all. Many people chose to commit suicide there.

However, he persevered, but this did not mean that he had let it go.

As the old matters were brought up again, the humiliating memories of these hundreds of thousands of years surged into his mind one after another.

Initially, Hongmiao wanted to subdue Xuan Yi and make him work by procuring divine essence.

But now, it seemed that it was no longer necessary.

All of a sudden, the wind and thunder in the sky raged. The s.p.a.ce around trembled incessantly, and four long auras approached from the distance.

They were as vast and boundless as mountains and stars. These auras were clearly those of the Heavenly King Realm.

The Cai and Xuan Elders were at a loss. They knew nothing of such reinforcements.

"Xuan Yi, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have a Heavenly King Realm helper to back you up. I have a few too."

"You talk too much nonsense."

Xuan Yi could not be bothered to waste another breath on his opponent. He immediately took out his long sword.

Seeing this, Hongmiao too took out his blood-colored long sword.

"I'll make sure to let it taste your blood today."

Upon finis.h.i.+ng his sentence, a brilliant flash of rainbow appeared.

Instantaneously, the land and sky changed color. It was a shocking occurrence, that the might of one sword could alter Heaven and Earth.
