Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

He took a deep breath, and the true energy in his body circulated wildly. The Longyuan Sword let out a deafening dragon roar, and golden light shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire valley.

"The golden dragon breaks the sky!"

Chu Ze roared, and the Longyuan Sword in his hand turned into a huge golden dragon, roaring and rushing towards the Black Tiger King.

The Black Tiger King's face changed drastically. He felt a fatal threat from the golden dragon.

"Roar!"

The Black Tiger King let out a terrified roar and tried his best to mobilize his demonic power to resist this terrifying attack.

However, everything is in vain.

The golden dragon was unstoppable and swallowed up the Black Tiger King and his tiger in an instant.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise and the ground shook.

The golden dragon disappeared, leaving only a huge deep pit in its place, and the Black Tiger King was nowhere to be seen.

Upon seeing this, the morale of the Western Region demon army collapsed immediately, and they threw away their weapons and armor and fled in all directions.

Chu Ze sneered and did not order a pursuit.

He knew that these fleeing demons were no longer a threat.

He rode the golden dragon and slowly descended to the ground.

Upon seeing this, the Ming soldiers knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live the Ming Dynasty".

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Chu Ze looked at these loyal and brave soldiers in front of him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

"Soldiers, stand up!" Chu Ze said loudly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The soldiers stood up, their faces full of excitement.

In this battle, the Ming army won a great victory. The Western Region demon tribe suffered heavy losses and dared not invade the Central Plains again in the short term.

Chu Ze returned triumphantly and was warmly welcomed by the people of the capital.

"My Holy Emperor!"

"My emperor is mighty!"

……

The people's cheers were deafening.

Chu Ze stood on the Golden Throne Hall, looking down at the cheering people below, his heart filled with pride and satisfaction.

He knew that he had become a true emperor, an emperor who protected the people!

However, Chu Ze did not let victory go to his head.

He knew that this was only a small victory and greater challenges were yet to come.

Although the Western Region demons were defeated, they were not completely wiped out.

One day, they will come back again.

Moreover, in addition to the Western Region demon tribe, there are other forces eyeing the Ming Dynasty.

For example, the barbarians in the north, the demons in the East China Sea, and the evil cults hiding in the dark...

These forces are all potential threats to the Ming Dynasty.

Chu Ze must improve his strength as soon as possible to cope with these challenges.

He returned to the imperial study, sat cross-legged and began to practice.

He knew that only by becoming stronger could he protect the Ming Dynasty and the people!

Just when Chu Ze was concentrating on his training, a mysterious man in black quietly sneaked into the palace...

Chu Ze sat cross-legged in the imperial study, with the Longyuan Sword across his knees, emitting a faint golden light. He closed his eyes and concentrated, circulating the true energy in his body, trying to break through his current realm.

Suddenly, a cold breath quietly invaded the imperial study. Chu Ze suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were shining. "Who dares to break into the imperial study!"

A mysterious man dressed in black and wearing a conical hat slowly walked out of the shadows. His voice was hoarse and low, like the cry of a night owl.

"Haha, Emperor Ming, how are you?"

Chu Ze sneered, "Playing tricks! Tell me your name, I won't kill nameless people!"

The man in black laughed strangely, "Kill me? Are you worthy? I am the leader of the Blood Demon Cult, and I have come here today to take your life!"

"Blood Demon Cult?" A trace of disdain flashed in Chu Ze's eyes, "How dare you, a jumping clown, act so presumptuous in front of me!"

"Arrogant!" The man in black shouted angrily, and his figure flashed, rushing towards Chu Ze like a ghost.

Chu Ze was not afraid. He drew the Longyuan sword and a bright sword light cut through the night sky and went straight for the throat of the man in black.

The man in black twisted his body strangely and barely avoided the fatal blow.

"You have some skills, no wonder you are so arrogant!" The man in black sneered, "But do you think you can stop me like this? You are too naive!"

The man in black made seals with his hands and muttered something. A blood-red mist surged out of his body and instantly filled the entire imperial study.

Chu Ze suddenly felt difficulty breathing, and a strong smell of blood hit his nose, making him feel nauseous.

"What kind of evil magic is this?" Chu Ze was secretly shocked. He held his breath and circulated his true energy to resist the strange blood mist.

"Hehehe, this is my blood demon technique, which is specially used to suck the essence and blood of living people, making you taste the feeling of a life worse than death!" The man in black laughed sinisterly.

The blood mist became thicker and thicker. Chu Ze felt that his true energy was being consumed rapidly and his body was becoming weaker and weaker.

"Damn it!" Chu Ze cursed inwardly. He knew he couldn't continue to be so passive.

He suppressed his discomfort and swung the Longyuan Sword violently. Streaks of golden sword energy swept out like a violent storm, dispersing the blood mist around him.

"A mere trifle!" The man in black snorted coldly and activated the Blood Demon Technique again. The blood mist became even thicker, almost dyeing the entire imperial study blood red.

Chu Ze’s true energy was almost exhausted, his body was crumbling, and he was about to collapse.

At this critical moment, a crisp voice came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, I am late!"

A graceful and elegant woman in a phoenix robe slowly walked into the imperial study. It was the Empress, Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ruyan held a jade ruyi in her hand, which emitted a soft white light and dispelled the blood mist around her.

"Ruyan, why are you here?" Chu Ze felt warm in his heart, but also a little worried.

"I heard that Your Majesty was in danger of being assassinated, so I came here to protect you!" Liu Ruyan said softly.

"Humph, here comes another one seeking death!" The man in black sneered, "That's just right, I'll suck you both dry!"

A hint of coldness flashed in Liu Ruyan's beautiful eyes, "You daring monster, how dare you disrespect His Majesty, you are courting death!"

Liu Ruyan waved the jade ruyi, and white rays of light shot towards the man in black like sharp arrows.

The man in black was caught off guard and was hit by the white light. He let out a scream and retreated repeatedly.

"What kind of magic weapon is this?" the man in black asked in horror.

"This is the national treasure of our Ming Dynasty royal family, specially used to restrain evil spirits!" Liu Ruyan said coldly.

"Damn it!" The man in black knew that he was no match for Liu Ruyan, so he turned around and tried to escape.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" Chu Ze took a deep breath and swung the Longyuan Sword. A golden light flashed and cut off one of the arms of the man in black.

"Ah!" The man in black let out a shrill scream, covering his broken arm, his eyes full of fear.

He never thought that he would fall into the hands of a woman.

Liu Ruyan took advantage of the victory and pursued him. Yu Ruyi waved again, and a white light enveloped the man in black.

“No…” The man in black let out a desperate roar, and his body gradually turned into ashes and disappeared.

Chu Ze looked at the place where the man in black disappeared, and couldn't help feeling a little scared.

If Liu Ruyan hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. (End of this chapter)
