Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 969 Human Emperor Sword

Although the human world and the underground world have been locked in fierce battles for years, with countless large and small campaigns, and Fang Ping even organized a large-scale counterattack a while ago, all the fighting has taken place in the underground world, and ordinary people on Earth have not been affected at all.

Even if some traitors caused trouble on Earth before, they wouldn't make much of a fuss, and they would be suppressed quickly.

These ordinary people rarely encounter such a large-scale event.

No one had ever dared to cause such a commotion on Earth before; otherwise, the powerful figures from the Three Departments and Four Prefectures, and the various holy lands, would have fought them to the death.

"boom!"

Inside the Ministry of Education in Kyoto, a desk was smashed to pieces. Dragon King Linlong angrily cursed, "Who the hell is that?"
How dare you try to undermine me at a time like this?
"Are they taking advantage of our boss's absence?"

Lin Long is now a top-tier expert, and he was left behind by Fang Ping to oversee Earth.

However, his "Peak" level was somewhat watered down. It wasn't the Peak he had cultivated himself to, but rather the Origin Dao he had brought from the Emperor's Tomb. Like Yang Daohong, he had switched to an Emperor-level Dao, so he could only exert the strength of a True God Peak in normal times, but could unleash Emperor-level combat power at critical moments.

At this moment, a spiritual force crossed the sky and said with a solemn expression, "Dragon King, this person is hostile! Should I go into battle?"

The speaker was Zhang Wu, whose strength had reached its peak, and who was one of the current guardians of Earth.

The reason he didn't use a telephone was because the Dragon King's phone was being ringing off the hook, so he simply communicated using his mental power.

"Go into battle my ass! Do you even know where the enemy is?"
Moreover, is an enemy capable of causing such a commotion something you can handle?
Your current task is to keep an eye on Magic Martial Arts Academy for me. If things go wrong, take the key personnel and run away; implement Plan B.

Zhang Wu immediately replied, "Understood! I'm already at Magic Martial Arts University."

Dragon King Lin Long forced himself to calm down and said in a low voice, "You must be careful. The sound is coming from your side. To be precise, it should be in the East China Sea, not far from the Demon Martial Arts Academy."

In case of any unforeseen circumstances, do not act rashly. Prioritize the protection of key personnel. The instructors and students of Magic Martial Arts must not be harmed…”

Before their conversation was over, they suddenly sensed something and looked up at the eastern sky.

Click!

An extremely exaggerated crack appeared in the sky, stretching for tens of miles. Countless energies surged out, forming waves of energy that spread in all directions. Wherever they passed, flowers, plants, and trees began to grow wildly, and some animals began to mutate and evolve into demonic beasts. This energy was so concentrated that it even surpassed that of sacred cultivation grounds.

"boom!"

A towering pillar of energy rose up, and a divine sword exuding an aura of imperial power descended upon the East China Sea, only a thousand miles from the Magic Martial Arts Academy.

"Buzz!"

A tremendous pressure spread out, smoothing the sea surface below like a mirror.

thump! thump! thump!
Whether human or animal, ordinary person or martial artist, all were knocked unconscious by the sudden burst of pressure. In a nearby island nation, the scene was one of utter devastation.

Countless people suddenly fell into a coma, leading to various accidents. The entire city was filled with collisions, fires, and explosions, making it seem like the end of the world.

Some nearby animals were directly blasted into a bloody mist, and the smooth sea surface quickly turned dark red.

Fortunately, the longsword appeared on the sea; if it had been inland, the damage would have been much greater.

Zhang Wu asked solemnly, "Who is it? How could they unleash such a powerful aura?"

Lin Long immediately said, "It should be the enemy. Human experts wouldn't unleash their power so recklessly. You should lead your men to retreat immediately, let them enter the Martial Arts Building first, and then you can take the Martial Arts Building with you."

Zhang Wu looked eastward in shock and said, "Could it be that someone has taken advantage of the emptiness of the human world to break into Earth?"

Lin Long said anxiously, "I don't know, but this pressure is too strong! It's something neither you nor I can withstand. We must find help as soon as possible. By the way, where's Tianmu? Isn't it at Magic Martial Arts University?"

Zhang Wu said speechlessly, "Don't count on Tianmu. He's trembling with fear. Judging from his expression, if his legs weren't weak, he would have run away long ago."

"Damn, these demonic plants are so unreliable. A saint is scared like this? But this also shows that the enemy is very powerful, possibly a Heavenly King."

Lin Long, bracing himself against the oppressive aura, ordered, "Everyone who can still move, prepare to activate the emergency plan..."

"What emergency plan are you talking about! You all just stay put."

At this moment, Cangmao's voice came and said, "Don't be nervous, it's not a martial artist invading, but the birth of a divine artifact. It will be fine in a moment."

Knowing that a great change was about to occur in the Three Realms, Cangmao followed Zhang Haoran's instructions and ran back to Earth as soon as he came out of the fake Heavenly Tomb.

The powerful beings of the Three Realms all know the importance of the Azure Cat, and even when they are enemies, they will not go so far as to harm it.

But those novice martial artists are different. Even if an emperor descends, if Cang Mao is nearby, they will still attack him ruthlessly.

In their view, killing the Azure Cat would severely damage the original universe, thus solving the problem at its root.

The Azure Cat was well aware of this, so as soon as it heard that the novice warriors would participate in the battle, it obediently ran back to the human world.

Unexpectedly, it coincided with the birth of the Human Emperor Sword, and it caused such a huge commotion.

Cangmao spends all his time with Fang Ping, so he naturally knows what the emergency plan is.

That is to get the small space we created off Earth as soon as possible, so as to preserve the flame of humanity.

All nuclear missiles are ready to launch. If humanity is overwhelmed and completely occupied, then the nuclear missiles will be detonated to destroy the enemy.

Upon hearing Cangmao's voice, Lin Long immediately calmed down. To be honest, the oppressive aura he had just witnessed had truly frightened him. It was definitely not the aura of an Emperor or a Saint; it could only be unleashed by a Heavenly King.

Otherwise, even Tianmu, whose strength had reached the level of a saint, wouldn't have been so terrified that he trembled with fear.

If a celestial king were to descend upon the human world at this moment, Earth would be doomed. Fortunately, Cangmao is here.

Dragon King Linlong composed himself and asked with some doubt, "Azure Cat, are you sure that's a divine artifact and not a martial artist?"

What kind of divine artifact could unleash such immense pressure?

He had seen divine artifacts before, and as a powerful figure who stayed behind on Earth, Fang Ping equipped him with a damaged divine artifact.

Even if a martial artist were to unleash their full power, ordinary divine artifacts would not be able to unleash such immense power!

The cat's crisp voice rang out: "Of course I can confirm it!"

This is the old man's weapon, the Human Emperor's Sword!
Back when it was being built, I even secretly took a look.

Suddenly, Cangmao realized something and said angrily, "That old man, the Human Emperor, is too wicked. He actually hid the divine artifact in the mortal realm."

No wonder the energy in the human world is decreasing, eventually leading to the end of the Dharma era; it turns out this sword was secretly absorbing energy.

I always thought it was a problem with the Immortal Source.

Upon hearing this, Dragon King Lin Long's face immediately darkened, and he was furious.

So, the lack of energy in the human realm is the Emperor's fault?

This is the human world!
In ancient times, this was the territory of the Human Emperor, and all humans were his subjects. It's one thing for the Human Emperor not to protect humanity, but to actually create a divine artifact to absorb energy—is that something a human would do?
No matter how strong such a person is, he is not worthy of becoming the Human Emperor. No wonder he was stripped of his throne by the Golden Dragon of Fortune.

However, all he can do now is rage in vain. Forget about seeking revenge against the Human Emperor; he can't even beat his weapons.

Cangmao seemed to see Lin Long's frustration and comforted him, "Alright, don't be discouraged. Someone will help you get revenge."

The appearance of the divine sword at this time indicates that the old emperor is not in good condition and may be about to be killed. That is why he recalled the divine artifact in hopes of turning the tide of the battle.

"Hehe, it seems the shop owner and the big swindler have gained the upper hand. Maybe they'll be able to finish fighting and go home for dinner soon."

Hearing Cangmao say that, Lin Long was not relieved at all; on the contrary, he became even more nervous!
Even if this artifact were allowed to wreak havoc on Earth, at most a few people would die or be injured, and the losses would be greater.

As long as Zhang Tao and other powerful figures are safe, there will be no problems in the human world.

If this powerful artifact falls into enemy hands, Zhang Tao and his companions will be in grave danger. Without the protection of a powerful figure, the world will truly be doomed.

Lin Long said resolutely, "Since that's the case, then we can't let this divine artifact leave."

I will immediately gather manpower to intercept them; even delaying them for a little longer is good.

Cangmao, however, said with a look of disdain, "Can you even get close to that divine artifact?"
The Human Emperor's Sword has absorbed eight thousand years of energy; it could probably even kill a Heavenly King. With your meager strength, you'd be nothing more than cannon fodder, unable to buy any time at all.

Lin Long was extremely frustrated, but unable to refute it.
The power unleashed by that divine artifact was too strong; he probably couldn't even get close. Going there would only be a pointless death. Even if he and Zhang Wu risked their lives, they probably couldn't stop it for even a second.

Then he looked expectantly at Cangmao, his expression showing a hint of hesitation.

Upon seeing his expression, Cangmao immediately bristled!
With an angry look on his face, he said, "What are you looking at? You don't want me to take action, do you?!"

Lin Long didn't speak, still looking at Cang Mao with expectant eyes.

Tianmu is now trembling with fear and can't be relied upon at all. Only Cangmao can stop that divine artifact from leaving.

The gray cat shook its head like a rattle drum, "No way! No way! This cat doesn't fight!"

The Azure Cat is an ancient creature that has lived for tens of thousands of years. It knows very well when it can be arrogant and when it should lie low.

Artifacts don't have much intelligence. They don't care how important they are, whether they're the dumping ground of the Three Realms, or whether they're cute or not. If you dare to get close, you'll definitely be killed!

Seeing the disappointment in Dragon King Lin Long's eyes, Cang Mao said somewhat embarrassedly, "Relax! Relax! You don't need to worry too much."

The recall of the divine artifact should have been silent and unnoticed, but the fact that it caused such a commotion shows that the old Emperor was unable to control it at all.

He must be at a disadvantage, completely overwhelmed and disoriented.

Even if we let him recall the artifact, what difference would it make?
Even a magical artifact can't change anything.

You should know that these shop owners possess more than one powerful weapon, and they're all intact.

Cangmao was right. If the treacherous emperor Ji didn't recall the divine artifact soon, he would really be killed.

Having suffered repeated heavy blows and besieged by so many powerful figures, he can now only barely stabilize the situation and avoid defeat.

Without recalling the Emperor's Sword, he really can't hold out for much longer.

"Zheng!"

Another resounding sword cry rang out.

The terrifying pressure vanished instantly, and the divine sword transformed into a streak of light, passing through the nearest spatial passage and entering the underground cave.

Rumble!
The entire passageway was shaking violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

As soon as the divine sword left, the energy on Earth began to recover rapidly, with energy surging everywhere and forming holy lands for cultivation.

This is, after all, the primordial martial continent that once gave birth to nine emperors, and its foundation is quite profound.

If it weren't for the suppression of the Human Emperor's Sword, its energy would definitely not be inferior to that of the underground cave.

Now that the divine artifact had left, Dragon King Lin Long immediately began to arrange rescue efforts. He issued a series of orders, and martial artists from all over the country recovered from their shock and began to provide assistance.

It wasn't just the disaster caused by the previous burst of oppressive power, but also the chaos caused by the energy tides.

Although Zhang Tao had already started promoting martial arts among the general public, there were still some areas where the implementation was not in place, especially in some foreign countries where martial arts had not yet become widespread. He was needed to coordinate and arrange these matters.

The entire human world has just experienced a cataclysmic event caused by divine artifacts, and is now facing an energy tide, leaving many places in chaos.

The three ministries and four offices are operating at full capacity, and major holy sites are also beginning to get involved.

Leaving aside the chaos in the world, someone will naturally handle it.

As for the Human Emperor Sword, after entering the underground cave, it flew towards the battlefield without stopping at all.

It could sense its master's urgency, and suddenly thrust forward, cleaving a crack in space. It immediately flew into the crack and reappeared tens of thousands of miles away.

This divine artifact has absorbed the energy of the human world for eight thousand years, as well as the life imprints of countless powerful beings. It has already acquired a high level of intelligence and can even open up spatial passages with ease.

It adjusted its direction slightly and broke through space again to rush to the battlefield.

Zhang Haoran sensed the appearance of the Human Emperor Sword in the underground cave.

The power unleashed by this divine artifact is now no less than that of a supreme expert, and may even surpass it. A supreme expert of average strength might not be a match for it.

If it falls into the hands of Emperor Ji, it will definitely increase his strength many times over.

Zhang Haoran immediately shouted, "We, the strongest among us, will be responsible for holding this old guy back."

"Everyone else, give it your all to attack that divine sword! We absolutely cannot let it get close, and we must not let it fall into the hands of the treacherous emperor, or we'll all be doomed."

Everyone could feel the terrifying aura emanating from that divine artifact; if the Emperor were to obtain it, he might actually be able to turn the tide.

Now that the battle has progressed to this point, the treacherous Emperor Ji is severely injured and can only barely survive. Victory is only a matter of time.

If we get overturned by the opponent again, that would be too embarrassing.

While attacking, everyone also spared some attention to the Emperor's Sword, ready to unleash a furious attack as soon as it got close.

The King of Chaos had just slapped the Emperor across the face and was brimming with confidence.

Sensing the Human Emperor Sword constantly flying through space, its eyes gleamed with greed.

He volunteered excitedly, saying, "It's better to take the initiative than to wait passively!"
Hey!

I was just looking for a good weapon, and this one just happened to come to me!
"You continue your attack; I will deal with that divine weapon."
