The Golden Elixir is A Star, and You Call This Cultivation?
Chapter 175 - 109: The 100-Day Plan to Destroy the Palace of Light_1

Below the city walls, a monk rushed forward, his face flushed with excitement.

Dong Long looked out at the endless desert, the news reaching him only causing a ripple in his heart.

He was contemplating how the troops of Jialan City should deal with Wu Tong.

Wu Tong’s defenders numbered nearly a hundred.

Such terrifying strength was hard for Jialan City to cope with.

If only the Defender of the City of No Return killed off some defenders before he left the city.

About a dozen breaths later, sensing the arrival of a monk from the City of No Return, he slowly asked, "Did the Defender of the City of No Return kill any defenders?"

The monk, who was planning to report, could only swallow his carefully prepared statement in excitement and said, "Yes!"

Hearing this, Dong Long was not surprised.

It was not a problem for the Defender of the City of No Return, with his strength, to kill some defenders.

"Did he kill..." Dong Long was about to ask how many were killed, but then thought that would make him look too mercenary. Instead, he asked, "Did the Defender of the City of No Return flee from the City of No Return?"

Hearing this, the monk blinked.

He thought that the Defender of today was too long-winded, always asking strange questions. Couldn’t he just let him report properly?

But since he was an official, he couldn’t be too obvious.

"He didn’t flee!" The monk answered truthfully.

The Defender of the City of No Return didn’t flee at all, he was still in the city!

"What?" Dong Long was startled and old tears were about to fall from his eyes, "The Defender of the City of No Return... chose to fight to the death instead of fleeing?"

Hearing this, all the soldiers present were solemn, some raised their heads and howled, others clenched their fists.

"The City of No Return may have fallen, but its Defender still lives in our hearts!"

"No matter how strong Wu Tong is, he’ll have to step over my dead body!"

Damn it! The monk who reported the news wanted to slap Dong Long, but didn’t dare.

However, he mustered the courage to tell the truth: "Everyone, please listen to me, the Defender of the City of No Return isn’t dead!"

At this, everyone present was stunned.

All the defenders looked at the monk, who could feel their pressure.

"The Defender of the City of No Return didn’t die, did he surrender?"

"Damn it!"

This monk, looking at this group of powerful people, was utterly speechless: "Can you all stop talking and just let me speak?"

Silence.

Silence.

There was a long moment of silence.

Seeing this, Dong Long said calmly, "Everyone, calm down. Let him speak."

On hearing this, the monk breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly began speaking.

"Not only did the Defender of the City of No Return not die, he single-handedly fought off Wu Tong’s army of tens of thousands of monsters!"

He held his sword alone and wiped out Wu Tong’s army of monsters. Wu Tong was killed - no, every single one of the invading demonic army and demon controllers were dead!" Holding his breath, the monk spat out a series of facts.

After finishing, he felt liberated, yet a little apprehensive.

At this moment, everyone present had fallen silent, almost unwilling to believe what they had just heard.

Dong Long stared at the monk, his eyes ablaze, "Is all you said true?"

"Master Defender, every word I said is true. If I dare to deceive, then I am your father!" The monk, who had been holding back, said this boldly.

Even so, he spoke a wrong word by mistake.

At this moment, everyone in Jialan City didn’t mind his last sentence.

All of their faces were full of disbelief.

The Defender of the City of No Return single-handedly wiped out Wu Tong’s army?

Is Wu Tong really dead?

This was nothing short of a myth!

A mythical creature of the earth, when faced with Wu Tong’s army, had no choice but to die.

But, the Defender of the City of No Return not only survived but eliminated all the enemies!

It was unimaginable, unthinkable, dreamlike.

"Hahaha, Wu Tong is dead!" Dong Long couldn’t help but laugh, "The Defender of the City of No Return is so terrifying!"

Dong Long laughed loudly and danced about, pushing off half the bricks of the wall and falling straight down from the city wall.

A Defender laughing out of joy, knocking down the wall and falling off.

The Defenders present also burst into laughter at the scene.

Only the monk who brought the news was somewhat worried, but seeing everyone laughing, he also joined in the laughter.

...

In the City of No Return, Qi Yuan sat on top of the city wall.

"The Ultimate Origin strike..."

Qi Yuan showed a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

"Is there a Supreme targeting me...or is it something else?"

He scanned the City of No Return with his gaze.

The deserted City of No Return was now inhabited by only one person, Yuan Qi, who was gently sweeping away leaves.

"Right now...I’m still somewhat weak against the Supreme," Qi Yuan sighed.

Although the opponent had employed an Ultimate Origin strike, Qi Yuan had already battled several Supremes who had lost their realms in the land of absolutes, and mastered some techniques to evade the origin, which was enough to slay them.

But this was not foolproof.

When faced with a true undamaged Supreme, his attacks couldn’t harm the Supreme.

"Unless, I have my own Origin Divine Skills."

This required upgrading to level 120.

Now, he was only level 94.

There was a long way to go to reach level 120.

"With Wu Tong dead, the land of Yuzhou will be vacant for a while. I’ll take this opportunity to clean up the monsters in Yuzhou." Qi Yuan made up his mind.

Now, he was strong enough to protect himself. Even if he encountered a large-scale monster army, he wouldn’t be afraid.

It was time for him to consider clearing out the monsters near the City of No Return to enhance his strength.
