As a lord, I was forced to farm

"Hahahahaha!" Da Hua let out a deafening laugh. In the blink of an eye, she swung her fists hundreds of times. Her body bore the marks of Wu Han's double gun attacks, one of which nearly pierced her heart. But her physique was like that of a monster; she fought with increasing ferocity, her fists swinging faster and faster.

Her punches now are not as clumsy as when she hit Jiang Ran. After being systematically taught by humans, each move is both rough and refined, and has the power of the ancient boxing techniques in the stone wall. Every time she punches Wu Han, the latter feels the sound of his internal organs and bones breaking.

"A monster! It's a monster!"

He simply couldn't believe that he could be forced to this extent by a mere Dan Tian Realm demonic beast.

"Li-whoosh-li-"

The giant bluebird let out a miserable cry as the lava fist slammed down, blasting its body into the midst of the Great Zang army, instantly adding a hundred corpses to the ranks of Great Zang soldiers.

At the same time, Big Grass's gruff voice came over, "Big Flower, I defeated this little bird, praise me!"

Da Hua laughed heartily twice, "Well done!"

Wu Han covered the white flames on his left arm with one hand, his gaze sweeping over the bluebird, his face extremely grim.

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for using my ultimate move."

With a flick of his wrist, the twin pistols spun in his hands, and a dazzling azure light suddenly emanated from his body. The surrounding spiritual energy compressed wildly around him, and his aura surged, as if condensing into some kind of powerful technique.

"call out!"

Suddenly, a fiery whip that seemed to rip through the air came.

Wu Han let out a muffled groan, his gathered spiritual energy dissipating slightly. His eyes widened in fury as he glared to the side and roared:
"Flame Lotus—How dare you!!!"

This sudden scene surprised many people.

Xiong Songbai also looked at Yan Lian and asked in surprise, "Why is this? Aren't we both aiming for the Illusion Lake Secret Realm?"

"Yes." A gust of wind blew, lifting Yanlian's cloak to reveal her severed right arm. "So that's how it is..."

Yan Lian sighed, her face flushed.

Xiong Songbai and Wu Han's pupils contracted, their eyes fixed on Yan Lian's right arm.

It was a very fresh wound; the bright red blood could still be seen peeking out from the white bandage where it was bandaged.

"Your arms..."

Yan Lian's gaze swept over her right arm, and her eyes unconsciously turned to the woman standing calmly atop the city wall.

The timeline might need to be pushed back to a day earlier.

Yan Lian never expected that the mysterious lord Da Su would arrive alone with only a wolf among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Dayan, and then quietly pull her into an unknown Mahayana space.

Thinking of last night's battle, a fanatical light suddenly shone in Yan Lian's eyes, and she couldn't help but dig her fingers fiercely at the severed wound on her right arm.

Here, there seems to be a lingering, powerful flame that could devour everything, so intense and so beautiful!

It inspires a sense of submission!
Seeing her frenzied behavior, Xiong Songbai and Wu Han, feeling the white flame power within themselves and recalling the Great Yan people's worship of fire, couldn't help but curse her as a madwoman. Yan Lian licked her fingers, tasting a hint of blood with the scent of fire, and gazing at the army below Da Zang and Da Ce, her face suddenly turned cold. She shouted, "Great Yan army, follow me! Our target is—Da Zang and Da Ce!"

At this moment, Da Zang's army was closest to Da Yan's army.

At Yan Lian's command, the lava-like army below moved. Their crimson robes fluttered like an erupting volcano, instantly engulfing the unsuspecting Da Zang army!

Wu Han's expression changed drastically. "You madman! You attacked my Great Zang army! How do you plan to explain this to your Provincial King Yan Chutong?!"

"You don't need to worry about Sister Wang," Yan Lian chuckled, her gaze towards Wu Han and Xiong Songbai filled with chilling killing intent. "As long as the Illusion Lake Secret Realm doesn't fall into the hands of your two territories, and as long as this battle greatly weakens the strength of Da Zang and Da Ce, I will not only be innocent, but will actually be credited!"

The battle situation changed in an instant.

Not only Da Zang and Da Ce, but even Da Su was stunned for a moment, seemingly not understanding why Da Yan's goal had suddenly changed.

Li Qingxu of Tianlong Palace fixed his gaze on Jiang Ran atop the city walls, and paused slightly, "Could it be her..."

"...The worship of fire by the people of the Great Yan is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. If a fire oath is made, the defeated party cannot refuse any request from the victor. Yet, she was able to defeat the Flame Lotus..."

Li Qingxu was slightly alarmed, and suddenly wondered whether it was right or wrong for him to accept the mission, stand here, and help intimidate the three provincial capitals!
Now, the Great Palace actually has a Sword Saint with unfathomable strength, two Eight Giant Apes with amazing combat power, and its lord even has the strength to defeat the Flame Lotus!
This is no county at all!

Each of them is a pseudo-prefecture with the strength of a provincial-level province!
"We underestimated this fortress!" Xiong Songbai stared at the fortress, his eyes blazing with fury, and gritted his teeth as he shouted to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind him, "Retreat!!"

Blood trickled from Wu Han's throat as he hoarsely shouted, "Next time, I'll never let you off so easily, Da Su!"

Jiang Ran flew into the air, her heterochromatic pupils devoid of emotion. She stretched out her hand, her sharp nails gleaming with coldness. "Is my Great Su a place you can come and go as you please?"

With a snapping gesture, the pale flames symbolizing death on their bodies swelled up with a bang, and their life force drained away continuously. In just one minute, they felt as if they had aged several years.

Cultivation is inherently for the purpose of achieving longevity. Even though the lifespan of a cultivator in the Transcendent Realm can reach a thousand years, a few years is but a drop in the ocean. Yet, in just a few breaths, so much of one's lifespan has been burned away. The further one progresses in cultivation, the more one needs to use their life force to accumulate strength and break through to the boundless realm.

The raging white flames enraged Xiong Songbai and the others.

"This flame is so strange!"

"Despicable tactics, do you really think I have no other options?"

Wu Han roared and swung his twin guns, attacking himself instead. Blood splattered everywhere, and his flesh tore off, white flames falling with each layer of horrific flesh.

Jiang Ran looked at Wu Han, who was no longer recognizable as human, with only bare white bones on his body, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: He's a ruthless person.

The flames burned until the flesh and skin stripped from Wu Han were completely burned away, leaving no trace of life, before slowly dissipating.

On the other side, Xiong Songbai saw that this tactic was effective and followed suit.

Both were covered in blood. These dignified cultivators at the Transcendent Realm were in such a sorry state. They had never been reduced to such a state in hundreds of years. Their hearts were filled with boundless hatred.

'Next time, I will surely slaughter the entire Great Sumeru Kingdom and make that Great Sumeru King repay the suffering I have endured a thousandfold!'

Wu Han and Xiong Songbai's gazes swept over the three Transcendent Realm experts and the two terrifying Eight-Headed Giant Apes standing on Da Su's side. Completely disheartened, they instantly transformed into two shooting stars and retreated westward. (End of Chapter)
