Reborn Shang Zhou, angry at the sage Nuwa at the beginning

Chapter 2208

"Damn it! Kong Xuan's strength is so formidable!"

A flicker of fear flashed in Yu Tianchou's eyes; he hadn't expected such a powerful figure to exist in the borderlands.
"Yan Lie, finish this quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Lie's internal fire power surged, and the Burning Heaven Sword erupted with unprecedented light:
"Burning Heaven Sword Technique - Blazing Flames Burn the World!"

A massive blaze swept in, hurtling towards Yuan Futong and Kong Xuan simultaneously. The flames contained destructive power, causing ripples to spread through the space.

Yuan Futong's expression changed, and he activated his spiritual energy to the fullest extent, transforming it into a huge emerald green barrier to block the attack of the flames.

Kong Xuan then intertwined seven-colored divine light to form a seven-colored barrier, joining forces with Yuan Futong to resist the raging flames!
"boom!"

The flames collided with the barrier and enchantment, instantly causing the emerald green barrier to crack and the seven-colored enchantment to tremble violently. Kong Xuan and Yuan Futong both staggered back several steps, spitting out blood.

Just at this time,

A powerful aura emanated from the direction of the Human Emperor City. Golden humanistic rays soared into the sky, and a golden figure stepped into the light—it was Emperor Xin.

The chaotic power of humanity flowed around him, and the Human Emperor Sword pointed straight to the sky. His aura was extremely terrifying, far surpassing that of Yu Tianchou and Yan Lie.

"Cultivators from the inner regions who dare to invade my borderlands will be killed without mercy!"

Di Xin's voice carried boundless majesty, like a judgment from the heavens, causing Yu Tianchou and Yan Lie's expressions to change drastically.

"Mid-stage Chaos Realm! How is this possible? There's such a powerful expert in the Borderlands!"

Yan Lie's eyes were filled with disbelief. He had never expected that the Human Emperor of the Borderlands would have such strength.

Yu Tianchou was terrified and turned to flee: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

How could Di Xin give him this opportunity? With a wave of the Human Emperor Sword, a golden sword light containing the power of chaos and humanity shot towards Yu Tianchou in an instant.

The sword light was extremely fast, and Yu Tianchou had no way to dodge it. He was struck squarely in the back by the sword light, and the golden power of humanity instantly erupted and raged wildly within his body!
"Pfft!"

Yu Tianchou spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flew backward, and his aura instantly weakened.

Seeing this, Yan Lie also tried to escape, but was entangled by Yuan Futong and Kong Xuan.

"Yan Lie, where do you think you're going!"

Kong Xuan unleashed a seven-colored divine light, binding Yan Lie's limbs, while Yuan Futong thrust out his Qingfeng sword, aiming directly at Yan Lie's brow.

Di Xin flashed and appeared in front of Yan Lie, the Human Emperor Sword pressed against his throat: "Cultivator of the Burning Heaven Palace, how dare you!"

Yan Lie's face turned deathly pale, and he trembled all over: "Your Majesty, spare me! I was only following orders, it was not my own intention!"

A cold glint flashed in Di Xin's eyes: "Acting on orders? Then I'll die in place of your master!"

With a swing of the Emperor's sword,
Yan Lie's head fell to the ground with a thud, and the power of fire within his body was completely purified by the power of humanity.

The demon army, having lost its leader, and the cultivators of the Burning Heaven Palace instantly collapsed, fleeing towards the inner region.

Yuan Futong and Kong Xuan led the defending troops in pursuit, killing countless enemy soldiers and seizing a large amount of spoils of war.

Di Xin approached Yu Tianchou, looking down at him: "Why do Wanling Valley and Fentian Palace dare to invade my borderlands?"

Severely injured, Yu Tianchou had lost his former arrogance and hurriedly said:

"It's...it's an agreement reached between the Palace Master of Burning Heaven Palace and my Valley Master to annex the Borderlands, plunder the essence of humanity and Kong Xuan's bloodline, strengthen our power, and cope with the pressure from the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion." Di Xin frowned slightly: "The Heavenly Pivot Pavilion? Why aren't they making a move?"

"The Tian Shu Pavilion advocates maintaining order on the Xuanhuang Continent and is unwilling to easily interfere in border affairs, but it has tacitly approved the actions of the Burning Heaven Palace and the Myriad Spirits Valley, as long as it does not cause turmoil on the continent," Yu Tianchou said truthfully.

A sharp glint flashed in Di Xin's eyes: "I see."

He raised his hand and waved.
The power of humanity sealed Yu Tianchou's meridians: "Take him back to the Human Emperor City and keep him under strict guard."

After dealing with the battlefield, Emperor Xin, Yuan Futong, and Kong Xuan returned to the governor's mansion in Qingzhou.

In the house,

The three men looked grave.

"Your Majesty, although the vanguard of the Burning Heaven Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits has been repelled, this is only the beginning."

Kong Xuan said, "There are many powerful figures in the inner region, including quite a few at the late stage of the Chaos Universe Realm or even higher. The next attack will be even more dangerous."

Yuan Futong echoed, "Although the enemy was defeated this time, we also paid a heavy price. More than half of the Qingzhou garrison was killed or wounded, and the city walls were severely damaged."

Di Xin nodded: "This battle has made us realize the gap between us and the forces of the inner region. In their eyes, the early stage of the Chaos Universe Realm is nothing more than a vanguard."

He paused.

A resolute glint flashed in his eyes: "But we have no need to be afraid. Although the borderlands are weak, the human destiny is at its peak and the Xuanhuang earth energy is profound. As long as we unite as one, we may not be unable to contend with the forces of the inner region."

"Issue the order to repair the city walls of each state and reinforce the Humanitarian Array in the borderlands; the Humanitarian Academy should accelerate the training of talents and select elite cultivators to form the Borderlands Guard; send people to each state to recruit young men into the army and strengthen military preparedness; at the same time, continue to gather information from the inner regions and understand the movements of the Burning Heaven Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits."

Di Xin issued a series of orders, his tone resolute: "If the inner regions want to annex the borderlands and plunder our gains, then they will pay a bloody price! I, Di Xin, hereby swear that I will protect every inch of the borderlands and every one of my people!"

Although the war in Qingzhou has ended, the crisis in the borderlands has only just begun.

The crushing defeat of the vanguard of the Burning Heaven Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits will inevitably trigger a larger-scale retaliation.

The conflict between the inner region and the borderlands has intensified completely, and an unprecedented war concerning the survival of the borderlands is quietly brewing!
Di Xin and his human forces were prepared for a desperate battle, determined to hold up a sky for humanity on the edge of the Xuanhuang Continent.

News of the great victory in Qingzhou reached the Emperor City in just three days, and the spiritual energy of the land and sky in the borderlands began to become violently disordered.

On the western border of Yongzhou, chaotic currents surged, and flames and demonic energy intertwined to form dark clouds that blotted out the sun, making it look like the end of the world from afar.

Yan Fentian, the Palace Master of Burning Heaven Palace, and Qing Mingzi, the Valley Master of Myriad Spirits Valley, two top-tier experts at the late stage of the Chaos Universe Realm, personally led an allied army to invade, commanding over a million cultivators.
Among them were seventeen experts at the Chaos Universe Realm, a lineup far exceeding the imagination of the borderland cultivators.

"You brat Di Xin, you killed my elders and captured my young master! Today, we will raze the borderlands and refine the origin of humanity!"

Yan Fentian's voice, like a raging inferno that could scorch mountains and boil seas, carried a terrifying pressure and spread throughout the desolate lands.

He was clad in crimson-gold armor, his body ablaze with eternally burning divine flames, and in his hand, a divine scepter pointed directly towards the Human Emperor City.

As the scepter was waved, countless meteorites fell from the clouds and crashed into the walls of Yongzhou.

Qingmingzi transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-tall blue phoenix, surrounded by countless phantom images of demons, its demonic power so dense that it materialized into dark clouds.

"Kong Xuan, offer up your bloodline and submit to the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits, and I will spare the lives of your entire clan!"

The blue phoenix cried out.

The sound waves shook the walls of Yongzhou, and the demon army below roared in unison, their demonic energy soaring into the sky, faintly suppressing the human radiance of the borderlands...
