Cosmic Demon

Chapter 221 Azure Sky Imperial Edict, Primordial Chaos God!
The first divine machine originated from the ancient imperial era.

It is said that a "great supernatural being" from the ancestral star intended to travel through the nine heavens and ascend to the outer heavens.

He advised the emperor, who granted his request, and together with skilled craftsmen from across the land, the collective efforts of the people, and a vast amount of resources.

After sixty years, the initial stage of the divine machine was finally created!
There are also relevant records in historical books.

"...Standing over ten fathoms tall, entirely of black iron, with eyes like torches and a voice like thunder, it is truly a marvel of nature. Observing its form, its exterior resembles a golden-armored divine general, while its interior contains a hundred intricate mechanisms, interwoven like stars in a constellation, operating endlessly, with the power to uproot mountains..."

The day the divine machine was born shocked the world and left them in awe.

Later historians also lamented:

"Now, seeing this iron-clad divine weapon, I realize that human power can indeed rival the power of creation. Its arms can transform into a hundred weapons; when its left palm opens, light cannons burst forth, like Yi shooting down nine suns; when its right arm extends, chainsaws roar, like Gonggong striking a mountain. It carries the box of Li Zhu on its shoulders, and there is also the Taiyi Divine Thunder hidden in its chest, which, when it erupts, will scorch the earth..."

I still remember the night the divine strategist manifested; the Purple Palace shook, and the Broken Army Star shone brighter than daylight.

With the successful test flight of the first Shenzhou spacecraft, it broke through the atmosphere and roamed among the stars.

The Eastern Xia Empire began mass production, almost hollowing out its ancestral planet, thus ushering in the era of the Great Expedition.

A grandmaster once commented that the Divine Strategist was a "clothes".

Just as when people swim in rivers, wearing water-resistant clothing allows them to dive deeper and farther.

Once vitality breaks through a specialized field, one can master the energy core carried by the divine machine, adapt to the harsh environment of outer space, and even cross dangerous zones of cosmic ray bursts.

By the time the empire reached its most glorious and prosperous period, the Divine Machine Legion had become a fully-fledged organization, and these behemoths brought the flames of war to every corner of the galaxy.

Back then, the Eastern Xia were feared by other civilizations and races because these humans, known as "wild dogs unleashed," would always hover their warships in the sky in droves, and then one after another, their divine aircraft would plummet from outer space like dumplings being dropped into a pot!

The delivery capsules, like dandelions dancing in the air, covered the vast land!

This scene often plays out on different planets. This kind of "saturation attack" with abundant resources makes the enemy suffer and completely unable to organize an effective resistance!
The Eastern Xia Empire, with its exceptionally strong martial spirit, had never suffered a defeat before encountering the formidable forces of "Star God" and "Iron People." It would subdue anyone it disliked!

There's also a "turbulent dark history" where several grandmasters, on the emperor's orders, were sent as envoys to various civilizations across the vast galaxy, only to have their banquets fall apart, leading them to launch wars of annihilation and reduce the leaders and ministers of those nations to ashes.

"How did a super machine end up at the satellite fortress! Crossing the security line at will! What are the defense forces doing...?"

The bearded man was terrified; the energy fluctuations emanating from that divine machine were at least at the "King level"!
"Grandmaster unleashes divine power! Damn! Who dares to stop us! We can even breach the defensive lines of the war base!"

The bald man put two fingers together and gently placed them between his eyebrows.

But in just a moment, his mental power was like a ladle of water poured into a high-temperature steel furnace; it evaporated and vaporized before it even touched the surface!
call!
"Terrifying! Utterly terrifying!"

The bald man's face turned deathly pale; the backlash from the dissolution and erosion of his spiritual power was shaking his sea of ​​consciousness.

Even at the peak of the Holy Embryo stage, he could not withstand it, causing his head to feel as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer, and blood seeped from his nasal cavity.

"This is a Grandmaster at his peak! We can't handle him, call the fortress's defenses immediately!"

The bearded man stared blankly at the sky-blue humanoid silhouette that resembled a deity or Buddha, with a divine halo above its head, silently suspended in the dark universe.

Even from a great distance, he could still clearly feel the intense pressure, as if his heart was being tightly gripped, creating the illusion of suffocation.

"Defense Force! This is the Blackwater... Hello! Hello, hello, hello!"

……

……

Snapped!
The microphone was shoved back onto the landline. The officer in charge of the satellite fortress, looking annoyed, muttered under his breath:
"Damn it, a Grandmaster piloting a Divine Machine is blocking the door outside, and the Blackwater is asking me for help, wanting me to carry out the Eastern Xia's laws? Have they got their heads stuck in a door?"

The middle-aged officer, whose shoulder insignia read "Fourth Fortress Defense Force," said irritably to his subordinates:

"Can you please be more careful next time? Why do you make me answer these time-wasting calls? Damn it, do you think I'm Qi Wuxiang or He Lanchan?"
He is the head of the Nanhuang Martial Arts Academy. Not to mention that he has the authority to wear armor and carry weapons, even if he violates the regulations, it is not something I can handle!
"The fact that this giant didn't tear down the satellite fortress and force its way into my office is already quite lenient!"

The subordinate guard, who had been berated mercilessly, felt extremely wronged, unaware of the inside story.

They thought some arrogant and domineering cosmic tyrant was so blind as to dare to rob the military.

"Remember to keep your eyes open. Our fourth fortress is within the support range of Hengzhou Rising Star. You need to know the most important people! Have you heard of the Southern Huang Dojo? The ruthless Zhang Qiang!"
You may not recognize other people, but you must know this old man's car!
He was once among the top twenty of the Eastern Xia Divine Strategists! Azure Heaven Imperial Edict - Primordial Chaos Champion!

……

……

Inside the Blackwater, a holographic projection of a human figure is displayed in the command room.

Ying Xiao had strong, angular features, as if cast in iron, with slightly graying temples, yet he had the appearance of a young man.

He was dressed in a gray-green standard military uniform, with a silver python pinned to each of his two black shoulder patches.

"Azure Sky Imperial Edict - Primordial Chaos Warrior! A King-level Divine Machine is indeed powerful! You should all leave in the escape pods. Unless we bring back the original Ten Heroes, no one can stop us..."

Having understood the cause and effect, Ying Xiao decisively issued orders and instructions.

Because of the great distance, each of his words took three minutes to reach the Blackwater.

He walked slowly with his hands behind his back, and judging from the background, he seemed to be standing in an open area.

He said in a deep voice:
"Ying Lin is dead, so let's not let the impact spread. Since Mo Qihuan failed to protect my son, then my cooperation with him is over."

Blackwater immediately cut off resource supplies to Mo Zhenting's forces and ceased fulfilling its obligations regarding logistical support and military training.

When Ying Xiao received that encrypted message, he was indeed filled with rage for a moment.

After all, they were his closest blood relatives in this world, but after consulting with his family, he calmed down.

If you lose your son, you can have another one.

But if something were to happen to me, I would truly have no descendants.

"Zhang Qiang guards the Nanhuang Dojo, and no one can do anything about him. A Grandmaster and a King-level Divine Machine are already at a terrifying level, capable of directly confronting an army group."

Moreover, if it weren't for the lack of the 'Giant God Weapon,' the Azure Sky Imperial Decree - Primordial Chaos Warrior would have had the potential to reach the 'Supreme Emperor Level.'

Ying Xiao had seriously considered whether to drive Blackwater Company's flagship back to Hengzhou Xinxing, but after much deliberation, he chose to give up.

Unless the Ying family is willing to support him, he cannot fight against the Nanhuang Martial Arts Academy on his own.

"Withdraw from the fourth satellite fortress and scale back Blackwater's operations..."

Ying Xiao gave the instructions.

His voice echoed through the chaotic command room, but no one paid any attention.

Creak, creak, the bearded and bald man looked horrified as a giant hand, like a towering mountain, reached into the Blackwater. The high-strength alloy was like a piece of paper that had been soaked in water; it tore apart with a single poke.

The cabin was torn open with a huge hole, and the violent airflow almost sucked everyone out. The cold face of a god filled the hole, and the strange crystal embedded in his forehead cracked open. The white-haired old man with a fierce aura flew like lightning.

The bearded man, who was around the fourth level of the professional level, didn't even see Lao Zhang's movement clearly. He only felt a blur before his eyes, and then his neck was grabbed. He was lifted up with one hand and slammed heavily against the metal wall on the other side!

With a thud, a human-shaped silhouette was instantly imprinted!

"Ying Xiao isn't here, and it's just you few big cats and little cats?"

Old Zhang glanced sideways, not even looking directly at the other person.

His hand seemed to be dragging a "kite," and he reappeared in front of the bald man.

A glint flashed in his eyes, a burst of brilliance erupted, and a life force as powerful as a vast ocean was released! Snap!
The bald man's waist was bent over inch by inch, and he knelt down on the spot!
The knee slammed into the metal floor, making a cracking sound!
"Take me to Ying Xiao!"

Lao Zhang said.

"Old man, don't think you have divine insight..."

The bearded man glared angrily, but he hadn't finished speaking yet.

Old Zhang gently clenched his hand, his five fingers crushing the neck.

The bearded man's head drooped, hanging crookedly to one side. It must be said that his professional-level vitality was truly tenacious; even after suffering such a fatal injury, he was still clinging to life.

"I thought it was all in the past! Can your divine machine withstand a single cannon shot from a warship?"

Old Zhang still didn't look at the other person directly, only saying:

"Warships? Are they that powerful? It's not like we haven't slain them before."

He raised his hand and shook the space, causing it to distort abruptly, and the rapidly rising high temperature eroded the bearded man's body.

Pieces of flesh charred and turned to ashes, and the heavy, alloy-hard skeleton instantly turned pitch black, like a crisp cookie taken out of an oven. The air swirled around it, and the whole person seemed to weather and collapse.

Then he looked at the bald man kneeling on the ground:
"Take me to Ying Xiao."

"No problem! Senior! Just spare my life..."

The bald man was decisive and straightforward, indicating that he was willing to cooperate.

"Let's go!"

Old Zhang's murderous intent, which had been stirring within him, gradually subsided.

"Senior, you've ruined the spaceship like this..."

The bald man knelt on the ground, unable to get up.

Old Zhang ignored him and flashed back into the cockpit.

After the strange crystal closed, the divine machine rubbed its hands together, like kneading mud, and forcibly closed the hole.

Immediately afterwards, the king-level divine machine named "Azure Sky Imperial Edict - Primordial Chaos God" released an incomparably powerful gravitational field, dragging the Blackwater out of the satellite fortress and heading towards the more distant space.

"He's incredibly fierce!"

The senior officer in charge of guarding the fourth fortress saw this scene through the monitoring footage and couldn't help but sigh.

……

……

"You're saying a powerful aircraft broke through the blockade in the Tai'an area?!"

Inside the Education Department building, Mo Qihuan revealed his emotions for the first time, slamming an ashtray against the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Why not stop them! No spacecraft or airship, whether civilian or military, may leave Hengzhou without approval! This is the Governor's Office's order! It is above all regulations except the fundamental constitution!"

The secretary lowered his head, and facing the director's thunderous rage, he answered tremblingly:

“That divine machine is… a king-level machine! The Azure Sky Imperial Edict of the Southern Huang Martial Arts Academy – Hunyuan Dou Kui. It participated in the glorious battle and has a license that allows it to do whatever it wants. In Tai Jun’s order of handling, it has a higher priority than the blockade regulations.”

Mo Qihuan braced his hands on the table, panting heavily, his meticulously styled silver hair slightly disheveled.

Azure Sky Imperial Edict - Primordial Chaos King!

That old guy Zhang Qiang is really risking his life. At his age, he still dares to pilot a king-level divine machine and cross space.
The more powerful the machine, the more it values ​​the purity and numerical value of the driver's life force.

Especially the divine machines of the King-level sequence, the conditions for their use are extremely demanding.

Without an overwhelming and unparalleled vitality, it simply cannot be driven!
Not to mention controlling it!

"If the Thai prince wants to stop it, he absolutely can! Is this the Governor-General's statement?"

Mo Qihuan instantly calmed down. He stared at the red landline on the table, seemingly caught in some kind of dilemma and consideration.

Finally, he silently withdrew his outstretched hand, sat down in the chair, and gave a self-deprecating smile:
"I've spent most of my life walking on thin ice, and I still can't get to the other side."

……

……

"Master Zhang should no longer be at Hengzhou Rising Star, right?"

As Qin Shi stepped out of the Little Red Building, his third senior sister, Yu Weiwei, was already waiting for him on the lawn.

"Yes. Master needs to clear away some obstacles that might cause trouble for you and solve the problem at its root. This is a lesson Master learned from Senior Brother Shen."

Yu nodded slightly. Qin Shi decided to go to the central city, and Lao Zhang had carefully discussed it with his three apprentices.

Finally, it was decided to have the fish stay close to the body for protection, thus attracting attention from the audience.

Then Lao Zhang took swift action and settled the score completely.

The original plan was for Lao Zhang to pilot a King-level divine machine, forcefully break through the defensive iron curtain of the central city, quickly defeat Ying Lin, and deter the villains.

But Yinghuang's sudden arrival changed the course of events.

Yu Weiwei was unclear about how the first-order heir of the Ying family had discussed things with her master.

But clearly, the master doesn't need to expend his remaining life force, nor does he need to bear the blame for challenging the rising administrative star.

"Thank you, senior sister."

Qin Shi said very seriously.

"We are from the same sect, why be so formal?"

Yu Wei smiled serenely as she walked side by side with Qin Shi down the street.

"If anyone should be thanking someone, it should be me thanking you. Without you, my master would most likely have died with regrets. His greatest wish in life was to have the Nanhuang Martial Arts Academy continue."

Among his many fellow disciples, only Senior Brother Shen was capable of undertaking the task, but he also met with misfortune.

"Little Qin, I'm incredibly fortunate that you were able to enter the Southern Huang Martial Arts Academy."

Qin Shi looked up at the sky, thinking how lucky he had been on his journey.

I have met so many dedicated teachers and seniors.

"Senior sister, I will bring the Nanhuang Martial Arts Academy to the Star Sea, to that ancient road."

Qin Shi said softly.

He knew very well that without Lao Zhang, he would have had a hard time getting over the massive Ying family.

"I firmly believe that a new wave is brewing, and Dongxia needs a blazing sun to shine once again on its thirty-two administrative districts."

Yu turned her head slightly to look at Qin Shi, her eyes and brows full of smiles.
