The Golden Crow Burns the Sky

Chapter 20: War and the Ancient Emperor's Birth

Regarding the setting of the underworld, please see this chapter for details.

……

The universe is vast, and in many cases, the transmission of information cannot be very timely.

When the major forces in the starry sky had just received the news and were still confirming its authenticity, the war between the Underworld and the Golden Crow Clan had already broken out!

It was not until then that people discovered that the Jinwu clan, who had always attached great importance to the management of the Huosang Star base camp, actually had such an astonishing war background.

Large armies set out from the ancient star fields, wearing armor forged from fire iron and holding copper-forged spears. With a strong fighting spirit and murderous intent, they crossed the star gate and headed towards the territory of the underworld.

The underworld, obviously, had not expected the Golden Crow tribe to suddenly start a war. In the close combat, the eerie ghost energy condensed by the underworld defenders was dispersed. In an instant, blood and bones flew everywhere. They were ravaged by the charge of the Golden Crow army and fell down one after another like wheat being cut.

In just three short days, more than a dozen star regions under the rule of the underworld were in crisis, and some were even completely breached shortly after the news came out.

The forces from all sides of the underworld soon received the news and began to mobilize their forces to fight against this group of sudden enemies, but they had no idea where to start. There were too many enemies, overwhelming them. With the army pressing in, they could not organize an effective counterattack.

Just like that, under the fierce attack of the Golden Crow Clan, the forces stationed outside the Underworld were unable to resist and were defeated in the confrontation. A large amount of territory was seized and they could only retreat to the deeper parts of the universe.

Originally, in recent years, the underworld had laid out its plans for the starry sky and had seized vast territories. But now, such a good situation has been completely cut in half. During several battles, more than one-third of the territory was lost due to defeat and disappeared from the control of the underworld.

This is the Jinwu lineage which is at its peak, equivalent to a large living royal family. They caught the underworld off guard and achieved a crushing result against the latter!
For a terrorist force that can be regarded as a forbidden zone for life, such a failure is absolutely a huge shame! It is completely unacceptable!
Soon, the high-ranking officials in the underworld were furious, and a large number of ghost soldiers and generals emerged and stepped out of the star gate. At the same time, real strong men walked out of the ancient underworld to join the battle.

But this did not change anything. The Golden Crow clan also had a great sage come out and have a great battle with the Ghost Saint of the Underworld. Under the burning of the sun's true fire, the strong men of the Underworld were forced to retreat in embarrassment, and the army of the Underworld was defeated even more tragically.

Even the powerful Quasi-Emperor could not change this situation - at the same time as the Quasi-Emperor of the Underworld appeared, three Quasi-Emperors of the Golden Crow clan walked out of Huosang and confronted the Underworld clan from a distance, making it difficult for the former to move easily!
At the same time, many relatives of the Golden Crow Clan and the Yin Clan were also summoned, such as the Fire Crow Clan, the Flamingo Clan, the Golden Divine Bird Clan, etc. Among them, there were many powerful clans suppressed by the Great Sage. They gathered together at this moment and formed a new force.

These pressures surged towards the underworld, and for a time, this ancient force was embarrassed to the extreme.

The underworld is actually very powerful, but many of its forces cannot be easily mobilized - the cost of reviving some ancient corpses from the years is extremely high, and it takes time to prepare.

But the Jinwu clan obviously has no intention of giving the underworld any respite!
Finally, after the defense line collapsed several times and only the last one-third of the territory was left, the Underworld finally managed to stop the decline. With the revival of some ancient taboos, it paid a huge price and ended up confronting the Golden Crow Clan across the river.

……

At the forefront of the war between the Jinwu Clan and the Underworld, at this moment, flags covered the sky, horns blew loudly, and in the vast starry sky, two armies were fighting. The majestic momentum shook the void and changed the color of heaven and earth.

On the battlefield, Jin Chitian was wearing red divine armor, and the terrifying pressure of the Eight Heavens burst out, oppressing the strong men in the underworld.

In recent years, because the Golden Crow clan dominated the universe, Xuan Hui's momentum of enlightenment was unstoppable. Jin Chi Tian, ​​who had accumulated a lot of experience, finally made a breakthrough. After many years, he finally advanced to the eighth level of Quasi-Emperor realm.

At this moment, he was extremely brave having just made a breakthrough. Holding a Daojie Golden Mace, he fought hard against the three high-level psychic ancient corpses of the underworld's three quasi-emperors, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.

At the same time, not far away, there were two Golden Crow Quasi-Emperors who also joined the battle. Their opponents were also Quasi-Emperors, masters from the local Yama Palace and Hades Palace. All four of them were low-level Quasi-Emperors, and for a while, they were evenly matched and it was difficult to tell who was better.

Because before, Xuanhui and Zhongzhen, the three great generals of the underworld, became great giants, which caused some problems in the inheritance of the three major halls of the underworld.

The new leader of the underworld is still from the lineage of the Prison Emperor, but has not yet stepped into the realm of the Ninth Heaven. His strength is not enough to completely subdue the underworld. This time, he did not go into battle, but stayed in the army at the rear to prevent Xuanhui's arrival.

As for the other two halls, their Supreme Being had already left, so their foundation was insufficient. In a short period of time, they could not even come up with a mid-to-high level successor. They could only use two low-level Quasi-Emperors to temporarily manage the two major lineages. At this moment, the two acting hall masters were fighting with the Quasi-Emperor elders of the Golden Crow clan.

It can be said that one high-level quasi-emperor is in charge, and two high-level and two low-level quasi-emperors are entering the battlefield. These are all the high-end combat forces that the underworld can deploy in a short period of time.

But such power is not enough for the Underworld to turn defeat into victory, and it can only barely maintain the current situation of the war.

……

After a great battle, it was ultimately difficult to determine the winner among the seven quasi-emperors. In the end, both sides had to call off their battles and make further plans.

On the side of the underworld, seeing that the four Quasi-Emperors were still helpless against the other side, the new Lord of the Prison Palace had a gloomy face, and there was almost fire in his eyes! "Golden Crow has produced a person who can rival the Supreme in this life. The accumulated foundation is too deep. If this continues, there is no way to defeat them!"

“There are still ancient corpses in the three halls, but we can’t use them easily. The consumption of reviving two ancient Ninth Heaven strongmen is already not small. If we continue, we will have to use the divine treasure of the Prison Hall. How is this different from directly alarming the master?!”

The real master of the underworld is not a warm and affectionate person. On the contrary, the ancient master who is honored with the title of Zhenyu is a truly ruthless and indifferent person. The more you understand him, the more you can feel the coldness from the deepest part of his heart.

Especially thirty years ago, after his weapons of enlightenment were damaged and injured due to the mistakes of his predecessor, the Emperor of the Prisons became even colder in his attitude towards his servants. They were considered trash and would be ruthlessly abandoned.

Therefore, even though this war was not his responsibility at all, the new Lord of the Prison Palace still did not dare to gamble on the attitude of the Prison Emperor after he woke up.

However, the war situation is like this. Unless the Golden Crow Clan withdraws its troops, the Supreme Being will be alarmed sooner or later.

In order to change the situation of the war and prevent the Supreme from reviving, it is necessary to revive those ancient psychic corpses to fight.

The problem is back to the starting point - without any prior preparation, the resources required are enormous, far exceeding the cost of normally driving an ancient strongman.

Now, he has spared no expense in reviving two ancient quasi-emperors of the Ninth Heaven, and has already exhausted all the resources in his hands. If he wants to do so again, he can only pay attention to the Supreme Divine Treasures in the three main halls - but that is a place that is of concern to the Supreme, and if one wants to open it, the existence of the Prison Emperor cannot be circumvented no matter what.

This became a vicious circle, causing the Lord of the Prison Palace to despair.

……

It seemed as if he couldn't bear to see people suffer, because at this moment, suddenly, a bell sounded, echoing through the heavens.

That was the Jingyang Bell. At this moment, it flew out from the Huosang Star, like the rising sun, instantly cutting through the universe and flying towards the underworld.

The next moment, the Yangyang Bell struck directly into the underworld, shattering billions of miles of mountains and rivers in an instant, like the falling of a star. The true fire burst out, blowing billions of Yin soldiers to pieces.

Even the land of the underworld was left with an indelible scar.

This is an enormous loss for the underworld, something that has never happened before!
“Golden Crow!!”

Finally, as the Yangyang Bell raged, the Prison Emperor was awakened, and then he fell into endless rage.

Its terrifying will echoed above the underworld, like the might of heaven, confronting the will attached to the Yang Yang Bell. The next moment, a terrifying black light burst out. That was the ancient formation pattern of the underworld. With the power of the Prison Emperor, it forced the Yang Yang Bell out of the underworld.

Looking at this scene before him, even if his heart was cold as ice, the Prison Emperor could not remain indifferent.

For so many years, who dared to offend the majesty of the underworld? Even Wu Shi in the past had never really fought in the underworld!

At this moment, this contemporary Golden Crow has not yet attained enlightenment, yet he dares to act like this!

This had undoubtedly crossed the bottom line of the Prison Emperor, and he could no longer tolerate it.

boom--

The next moment, there was a loud bang, and the ancient Prison Palace was broken through by a supreme aura. The formation pattern that was enough to block the imperial way was also shattered under the terrifying will of the ancient emperor.

The Prison Emperor is born!

　The Hades in this book are not deliberately cut. After considering the performance in the original book, I set it to have three people who will become enlightened and three deputy quasi-emperors under normal circumstances. Among them, the Prison Palace has an advantage over the other two veins. In addition, there are several ancient strongmen, but they all need to be prepared for resuscitation in advance and cannot be put into use in a hurry. The ancient corpses are equivalent to controlled puppets and are weaker than normal quasi-emperors of the same level.

　　Regarding the Jinwu clan, Jin Chitian's setting is there and needless to say. The other two quasi-emperors are equivalent to the breakthrough of the previous peak great saints. For a royal family that is on the rise, this setting is reasonable. In addition, the Jinwu clan has a complete inheritance since the myth. This kind of force is only inferior to the royal family in the imperial soldiers even if there is no emperor. It is reasonable that the overall strength may be stronger in the era without emperors. In the original work, the Jinwu clan (before the Jinwu emperor attained enlightenment) actually had this momentum.

　　If there are any issues regarding the settings, you can discuss them with me, but basically there will be no major changes. You can also criticize me for the settings. If you can provide evidence, I will humbly learn from you. If you still want to criticize me, then we'll just have to wait and see.

　　Finally, I would like to ask for a monthly ticket and follow my reading. There will be two more chapters today, both should be in the evening. I will also continue writing in the venue in the afternoon. Thank you all for your support!
