Chapter 1113: Chapter 113: The Number One in the Universe

"Your Majesty, what’s the matter?"

Li Yuanba, seeing Qin Jun so furious, could not help but ask with confusion.

Bai Ze and Yang Jian also looked toward him. Clearly, anything that made Qin Jun this angry was no trivial matter.

Qin Jun took a deep breath and said, "The neighboring Black Dragon Starfield is annexing the starry skies of our ancient celestial realm. They obviously want to wage war!"

The Black Dragon Starfield is adjacent to the ancient celestial realm, but there is a significant disparity in strength.

Back in the day, when Canghua Immortal Venerable ruled the ancient celestial realm, he had to endure indignities at the hands of the Black Dragon Starfield, allowing concessions when possible.

This time, the Black Dragon Starfield intended to take advantage of the turmoil within the ancient celestial realm to divide it up.

Due to the short time, although the Qin Immortal Realm had already stabilized, it had not yet gained complete control over the entire ancient celestial realm. Currently, the realm was akin to loose sand, with most major and minor worlds waiting for the handover to the Qin Immortal Realm.

Driving off Yang Beiming had proven the power of the Qin Immortal Realm, and most forces were reluctant to relocate.

"The Black Dragon Starfield? Your Majesty, let me go and give them a warning!"

Yang Jian said in a deep voice, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

Now, he was considered the strongest in the universe, naturally looking down on everyone.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun’s eyes flickered.

"Good! Yang Jian, you go. Remember to announce your origin and name, and make it earth-shatteringly spectacular! I want you to capture the Immortal Venerable of the Black Dragon and bring him back!"

Qin Jun commanded in a stern tone, stirring Yang Jian’s blood to a boiling point. He immediately knelt down to accept the decree.

Li Yuanba also wanted to go, but he understood that his strength was not yet notable on a cosmic level, and he would only hold Yang Jian back if he went.

Bai Ze cautiously said, "Your Majesty, won’t this attract too much attention?"

The Black Dragon Starfield was not much of a concern, but if the Qin Immortal Realm was too domineering, it might invite the envy and apprehension of other starfields and major powers.

Qin Jun scoffed, "At this point, am I supposed to fear attracting too much attention?"

Bai Ze was momentarily stunned, then smiled helplessly, understanding he could not persuade Qin Jun.

However, the Great Qin celestial court had indeed never learned the meaning of fear in its journey.

"Yang Jian, depart at once. For any intelligence you need, Bai Ze will coordinate with you!"

Qin Jun waved his hand, for Kong Xuan and Jiye Demon Lord had already departed, leaving the Manifesting Saints free to be flexibly deployed.

"By your command!"

Yang Jian struggled to contain his excitement as he spoke, understanding that upon his return, he would come back loaded with honor and renowned throughout the universe.

Qin Jun was deliberately promoting him, aiming to make him the new strongest in the cosmos.

With the strongest in the cosmos as its pillar, the Qin Immortal Realm would surely attract countless beings to join.

"Your Majesty, what about me? Are there any tasks for me?"

Li Yuanba asked, not wanting to be left out as the fame of the Six Divine Beings of the Qin Immortal Realm and Yang Jian spread everywhere; he yearned to carve out a grand reputation for himself.

Narrowing his eyes, Qin Jun smiled and said, "Rest assured, the time to close the net is coming. All of you will have the chance to fight."

Yang Beiming would not disturb the Qin Immortal Realm for the time being, so naturally, the next step was to consolidate control over the ancient celestial realm.

A firm hand would be needed to subdue some major worlds that had declared their defection from the Qin Immortal Realm.

Meanwhile, outside the Qin Immortal Realm.

Kong Xuan and Jiye Demon Lord quietly watched the Qin Immortal Realm, exchanging wordless glances.

After a long while, Jiye Demon Lord finally exclaimed, "It seems we really overthought things."

They could have left long ago, but they had delayed because of overthinking. Thinking of this, Jiye Demon Lord felt rather embarrassed.

Kong Xuan remained stoic, his indifferent voice breaking the silence, "Shall we then proceed to the Ancient Imperial Path you mentioned?"

Jiye Demon Lord was startled and clearly struggled to follow, asking, "What about your brother?"

"Let him stay in the Qin Immortal Realm. Perhaps with the help of the Heavenly Emperor of Qin, he might even surpass me," Kong Xuan hummed softly, causing Jiye Demon Lord’s eyes to narrow.

Was the Heavenly Emperor of Qin that formidable?

Kong Xuan now realized that he had underestimated some beings, such as Patriarch Bodhi, Luo Shixin, Yang Jian, and others, who had previously seemed like ants in his eyes but now could actually rival him.

Especially Yang Jian.

So powerful he was almost unsolvable.

Kong Xuan, with his meticulous mind, couldn’t help but overthink.

Therefore, he believed that leaving Li Yuanba by Qin Jun’s side might not be a coincidence.

"If that’s the case, then let’s go!"

Jiye Demon Lord shook his head with a smile, suppressing the confusion he felt towards the Heavenly Emperor of Qin in his heart.

He couldn’t wait to venture into the ancient saintly emperor’s path.

Especially after witnessing the power of Yang Beiming, the long-dormant passion in his heart was reignited.

...

Time flew, and half a month passed in an instant.

News that shook the cosmos spread once again.

The Manifesting Saint Erlang Shen of Great Qin’s Heavenly Court, Yang Jian, forcefully broke into the Black Dragon Star Domain. Starting from the border, he fought all the way to the Immortal Realm. Countless immortals and gods of the Black Dragon Immortal Realm tried to stop him, but no one could injure Yang Jian.

Even the Black Dragon Immortal Venerable was captured by Yang Jian.

"I am Yang Jian, the Manifesting Saint Erlang Shen of the Heavenly Emperor of Qin’s court. If you dare to invade the Ancient Immortal Star Domain again, your fate will be like that of your Immortal Venerable!"

At that moment, Yang Jian, holding up the Black Dragon Immortal Venerable, shouted and then, in front of countless beings, tore off the right arm of the Black Dragon Immortal Venerable, intimidating all directions.

Afterward, Yang Jian left with the captive Black Dragon Immortal Venerable in tow, and no one dared to stop him.

As soon as the news of this battle spread, it immediately shook countless worlds, star domains, sects, Ten Thousand Dharma Island, and more. Everywhere there were living beings, they were discussing this event.

"The Manifesting Saint Erlang Shen! Isn’t Yang Jian a bit too arrogant?"

"Entering a star domain alone, as if it were devoid of people, Yang Jian is too powerful!"

"I think the throne of the universe’s number one should change hands!"

"The Heavenly Emperor of Qin is too arrogant, completely lacking restraint."

"Now, who can suppress the momentum of the Heavenly Emperor of Qin?"

"It seems like a keen interest to see Yang Beiming challenge Yang Jian."

Such comments were commonplace, especially within the Ancient Immortal Star Domain, where voices were saying that Yang Jian was going to usurp Yang Beiming’s throne as the universe’s number one.

The news quickly spread to the Qin Immortal Realm, inside the Heavenly Emperor’s Palace.

Qin Jun sat on the dragon throne, listening to Liu Bowen’s report, and couldn’t help but beam with joy.

He scanned the entire hall, where thousands of immortals, gods, and demons were gathered, and laughed out loud, "Have you heard? This is my Erlang Shen! Invincible under the heavens!"

Standing in the first row, Di Jiang, Fuxi, Patriarch Bodhi, Luo Shixin, and Qiang Liang’s expressions changed slightly, but none expressed their opinions.

The memory of Yang Jian brutally defeating Kong Xuan was still fresh in their minds. Except for Di Jiang, no one dared to say they could defeat Yang Jian.

Di Jiang, with his space Divine Power and if aided by ancestral witches, could potentially be stronger with the special attributes of the Chief Ancestral Witch, making the prospect of defeating Yang Jian not just empty talk.

As for Fuxi, he was not a combat-oriented god and demon.

Despite his high realm, trying to challenge Yang Jian across levels was extremely difficult.

"Truly, the Venerable is invincible in the world, but Your Majesty is even more formidable. It was you who created him," Liu Bowen said with a bow and a smile, flattering smoothly.

Immediately, all beings in the hall began to cheer loudly, pleasing Qin Jun and making him smile.

"Enough flattery," Qin Jun waved his hand with a smile, then quickly changed the subject, "Are all the armies ready?"

Upon hearing these words, the eyes of the warriors all lit up.

With Yang Jian making a name for himself out there, they naturally also wanted to go out and make their own achievements. Now the opportunity had come!
