The offensive and defensive alliance plan between Dayu, Tianxuan, and Qingluan was steadily progressing.
As time passed, more and more Martial Artists from the other two nations arrived at the Dayu Royal City.
Dayu was located at the very forefront of the necessary path into the Myriad Demon Nation; if the Myriad Demon Nation invaded, Dayu would be the first battlefield.
Therefore, the Martial Artists from the three nations would gather here to jointly confront the enemy.
Only in this way could they maximize the avoidance of the ravages of war spreading to their homelands and causing greater losses.
The Great Yu Royal Family personally received these troops of Martial Artists from Tianxuan and Qingluan.
The high-ranking officials of the three nations also began to discuss and refine the detailed operational plans.
Within the Demon Slaying Division, several Hall Masters, including Si Bingwen, were frequently summoned over the past few days.
Various operational strategic ideas emerged endlessly.
But the first thing that needed to be confirmed was which nation would take the lead in this war?
From a strength perspective, among the three nations, Tianxuan was the strongest, followed by Qingluan, with Dayu ranking last.
Of course, the gap was not too significant.
However, from the perspectives of geographical location and reserve supplies, Dayu undoubtedly had the greatest advantage.
After all, it was essentially a domestic operation; whether it was familiarity with the terrain or the mobilization and arrangement of resources, Dayu was far superior to the other two nations.
Qingluan was relatively moderate, occupying a middle position in both aspects.
After much discussion, Tianxuan and Dayu each held firm to their opinions, both hoping to serve as the leader for this operation.
The situation became deadlocked for a time, but with the great enemy approaching, a decision had to be made immediately; hesitation was absolutely impermissible.
Thus, both sides took a step back, appointing Qingluan as the overall commander for this operation to take the lead.
Dayu and Tianxuan would each dispatch an Admiral to serve as assistants, leveraging their respective advantages.
...
Tianxuan Dynasty, Chentang Domain.
Several Demon Emperors were enveloped in thick Mirage Mist, fear etched onto their faces.
This human Martial Artist, whose origin was unknown, attacked them fiercely without uttering a single word.
Caught completely off guard, two Demon Emperors were instantly wounded.
"Where is this guy from? Looking at his attire, he doesn't seem like someone from the Tianxuan Demon Suppression Division!"
"Not a Tianxuan Martial Artist? Then why is he attacking us?"
"What is the Demon Suppression Division doing? A Martial Artist from another nation intrudes into our territory, and they haven't noticed at all?"
"Everyone, stop discussing! Let's get past this immediate hurdle first!"
Li Xuanxiao moved through the Mirage Mist, unleashing the Mystic - Myriad Moon Shadows, causing several Li Xuanxiaos to appear simultaneously.
It possessed a resemblance to the Clone technique!
Countless Clones brandished blades and simultaneously slashed toward the Demon Emperors.
The Demon Emperors looked solemn and immediately employed their Demonic Techniques, either for defense, evasion, or counterattack!
Upon their first clash, the Demon Emperors were horrified to discover that they were absolutely no match for Li Xuanxiao!
"He is not in the Mystic Realm! He is a Origin Realm Martial Artist!"
"Damn it! Has he gone mad? What have we done to deserve a Origin Realm Martial Artist personally taking action?"
"A Origin Realm Martial Artist can infiltrate the Tianxuan Dynasty silently? I think Tianxuan is finished!"
"I don't know if Tianxuan is finished, but I think we are about to be finished!"
As the words fell, they sensed a profound and solemn aura rapidly descending from high above.
The Demon Emperors looked up and were instantly filled with despair.
They saw a massive golden palm print slamming down from the sky.
Under such terrifying might, they were as insignificant as mosquitoes.
Unstoppable...
The moment the thought arose, the golden palm print heavily struck the Demon Emperors.
The Demon Emperors were crushed into a pulp without even a single grunt.
[Successfully slain: Seventh Layer Mystic Realm Lion Demon, gained 7000 Demon value Points!]
[Successfully slain: Fifth Layer Mystic Realm Crocodile Demon, gained 5000 Demon value Points!]
[Successfully slain: Sixth Layer Mystic Realm Deer Demon, gained 6000 Demon value Points!]
[Successfully slain: Fourth Layer Mystic Realm Wolf Demon, gained 4000 Demon value Points!]
The System screen flickered, and Li Xuanxiao let out a long sigh.
"Finally, finally, they are all dealt with..."
After bringing the Star Chasing Moon Pursuing to Perfection, his speed was five times what it was before!
But even so, he still traveled for nearly a month to completely eliminate all the demon spies within the three nations!
Not to mention the Xuan Realm Demon Kings and Extreme Realm Great Demons—there were already countless of them.
At the Mystic Realm Demon Emperor level, there were twenty-six in Dayu, thirty-two in Qingluan, and thirty-nine in Tianxuan!
Combined across the three nations, the total number of Demon Emperors slain reached ninety-seven!
The Demon value Points also soared to 523,000!
This was undoubtedly a huge sum, but Li Xuanxiao was now an experienced veteran.
He would no longer act like he had never seen the world before.
For those in the Mystic Realm, this Demon value Points was indeed quite generous.
But his current goal was to step into the Origin Realm!
Everything he did was preparation for the Origin Realm.
Therefore, he had to use the consumption of Origin Realm Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts as the benchmark for reference.
Reflecting on his previous experiences, higher Realms certainly brought about a qualitative leap.
But the Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts of higher Realms also demanded a qualitative leap in Demon value Points!
During the Xuan Realm period, entry only required 100 Demon value Points, and advancing from Perfection to Perfection only needed 3000 Demon value Points.
However, once one stepped into the Mystic Realm, the starting entry point was 3000 Demon value Points... and advancing from Perfection to Perfection required as much as one hundred thousand!
This time, advancing from the Mystic Realm to the Origin Realm...
He dared not think about it, dared not think about it.
Li Xuanxiao stored the Demon value Points and did not use it.
Although his current Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts still had room for improvement, he did not plan to spend the Demon value Points on those.
The top priority now was to first raise his Realm to the True Origin Realm!
This 523,000 Demon value Points was his foundation.
Everything was ready; only the Origin Realm Cultivation Technique was missing!
Li Xuanxiao took out the message-transmitting jade talisman, sent the information to the Southern Demon, and immediately returned to the Dayu Royal City.
More than half a month had passed; presumably, Ash Ink had already made appropriate arrangements for the meeting with Ming Yanxia.
After arriving at the Royal City, he would first visit the Royal Court Martial Academy.
Then he would immediately go to the Scripture Pavilion of Fanyin Temple.
This time when he went in, he would not come out until he had read everything!
Having finalized his plans in his mind, Li Xuanxiao accelerated his speed, letting the sound of sonic booms roar.
...
Upon meeting Ash Ink at the Royal City Armory, the two headed to the Royal Court Martial Academy together.
"Kid, remember to perform well. With your capabilities, passing Sword Master Ming's test shouldn't be a problem!"
Li Xuanxiao nodded to show he understood.
Arriving inside the Royal Court Martial Academy, Li Xuanxiao finally met the renowned court Sword Master Ming Yanxia.
He was wearing a deep blue robe embroidered with golden thread flowing cloud patterns, appearing solemn and elegant.
Standing respectfully behind him was Yin Jinghui, the royal Genius who had previously crossed paths with Li Xuanxiao.
Yin Jinghui swept his gaze over Li Xuanxiao with an expression of disbelief, his eyes complicated.
After being tricked by Li Xuanxiao last time, he had been thinking about Li Xuanxiao constantly, longing to have a real fight with him!
Indeed, what one thinks about obsessively eventually manifests!
But he never expected the manifestation to be like this!
When he heard of the other party again, he had actually killed the New Demon Emperor, who possessed the Bloodline of an Ancient Divine Beast and was at the Peak of the Mystic Realm!
Doesn't this mean...
