The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 439

Chapter 439: 439

"Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng is an independent God and Demon, and the host needs to summon him separately," the system answered, causing Qin Jun to feel disappointed.

Boring!

Don’t they know how to give me, the host, a surprise?

Low EQ!

Qin Jun mocked inwardly, and he could only change the subject, "Bring up the data on the Heavenly River Navy."

I hope they’re not weaker than the hundred thousand troops I summoned before.

The attribute list for the Heavenly River Navy soon appeared before Qin Jun:

"Heavenly River Navy, from mythology!"

"Number of Members: One hundred thousand!"

"Cultivation: Transforming Void Realm Level One to Five!"

"Divine Powers: Cloud Traversal Technique! Crossing the Heavenly River!"

"Legion Attributes: Celestial Majesty! Soul of the River Suppressor!"

Awesome!

That’s equivalent to a hundred thousand Transforming Void Realm experts!

Qin Jun immediately became excited, noting that the Heavenly River Navy was not from ’Journey to the West’ but rather from mythology.

"Right, wasn’t the Heavenly River Navy only eighty thousand strong?" Qin Jun asked, puzzled.

"The Heavenly River Navy mentioned here is not the one from ’Journey to the West’. Aside from his appearance in ’Journey to the West’, Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng is also one of the four Saints of the Northern Pole in Taoism folklore, so the host should not habitually consider such entities within the context of a single mythological world," the system explained, leaving Qin Jun feeling both confused and impressed.

Who knew that Heavenly Marshal Tianpeng had such a status.

Never mind!

As long as the Heavenly River Navy is strong, that’s what matters!

In that case, the first God and Demon legion under Qin Jun’s command would no longer be the Demon Soldiers of Jiu Li but the Heavenly River Navy.

However, compared to the Heavenly and Earth armies of the Holy City, there is still a large gap.

To truly take control of the Heavenly and Earth armies is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it requires civil officials and generals to persuade and conquer.

Upon leaving the Sacred Palace, Qin Jun saw Old Man Yi and Sha Wujing chatting at the bottom of the stairs.

Feeling Qin Jun’s presence, the two turned around to look, and instantly, they froze, then exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

Did he break through his heart’s barrier so quickly?

Freak of nature!

Before his breakthrough, Qin Jun’s spiritual power was very restless, and even if suppressed forcibly, it would leak out, but after breaking through his heart’s barrier, the spiritual power Qin Jun emanated felt very calm, and while not as profound as a return to simplicity, there was still a significant difference in the eyes of those with advanced cultivation.

"Your Majesty’s talent truly makes others envious," Sha Wujing said as he approached Qin Jun, although it is said that man can overcome destiny, talent can indeed determine most people’s fate, just as some can never break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in their lifetime.

Today, even though Sha Wujing has broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm, ascending further is as difficult as an ordinary person reaching the heavens.

Old Man Yi looked at Qin Jun with a complex expression. Qin Jun waved his hand and smiled, "When will Great Qin’s people arrive?"

"Shen Gongbao has already sent people to greet them at the various teleportation points, and I can already feel their presence, they should be able to reach the Holy City in about an hour," Sha Wujing replied with a smile.

A Golden Immortal’s Divine Consciousness can extend very far, as long as the other party doesn’t conceal their presence.

Qin Jun nodded and began to stroke his chin in thought.

The Heavenly Convention was starting in seven days.

Time was pressing, and it was uncertain whether he could break through to the Earth Immortal Realm before then.

"Begin preparations for me; by tomorrow, I will enter seclusion to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm!" Qin Jun declared resoundingly.

"Yes!"

The two voiced their agreement in unison. Since becoming Qin Jun’s die-hard supporter, Old Man Yi’s attitude toward Qin Jun became even more respectful, although he still often joked around.

Time swiftly passed.

An hour later, groups of people flew into the various gates of the Holy City, many of them possessing incredibly powerful cultivation auras.

"Hahaha! Is this the Holy City? It really is different from below!" Red Boy laughed excitedly, not restraining his aura as an eighth-level True Immortal Realm expert.

Li Yuanba was equally excited, continuously howling, causing the Golden-Winged Army accompanying him to be embarrassed, pretending not to know him.

The Golden-Winged Army, all adopted sons and daughters of Li Yuanba, numbered just over a hundred; yet their cultivations were all above the Transforming Void Realm, with not a few in the Earth Immortal Realm, so assigning them to various departments and offices of the imperial court would not be inappropriate.

Nezha and King Huang Feng had the fastest speed and, in the blink of an eye, arrived at the top of Sacred Emperor Peak, where they joined Qin Jun, who was standing at the cliff’s edge overlooking the Holy City.

"We pay our respects to Your Majesty!"

A god and a demon shouted excitedly, and Qin Jun smiled as he helped them to rise.

Qin Jun pointed toward the bustling grandeur of the Holy City below and smiled, "From now on, the entire Human Clan of the Southern Domain is my empire; you all must protect it well for me!"

Even with Old Man Yi and Jiuling Yuansheng’s support, Nezha and King Huang Feng, as Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm powerhouses, remained among Qin Jun’s top fighters. Old Man Yi, at the complete stage of Taiyi Scattered Immortal Realm, was an outlier and hence not included here; therefore, Qin Jun still valued Nezha and King Huang Feng highly.

"We will brave fire and water for Your Majesty!"

"Rest assured, Your Majesty!"

King Huang Feng and Nezha declared in unison. Soon, Taming Dragon Arhat, Yuan Hong, Giant Spirit God, Jin Horn, Yin Horn, Red Boy, Li Yuanba, Evening Star, Eight Immortals, Liu Bowen, Zhuge Liang, Duanxiu, Bai Qi, Li Cunxiao, Zhao Yun, and others flew up as well. As for the remaining gods and demons, they had their own territories to guard and could not leave for the time being.

Liu Bowen and Zhuge Liang were being carried in the palm of Giant Spirit God’s hand.

"We pay our respects to Your Majesty!"

Everyone voiced their greetings in unison, and Qin Jun noticed that a mighty army was also flying towards Sacred Emperor Peak below - they were the Celestial Soldiers and the Jiuli Demon Soldiers.

The entire Holy City had descended into fervor.

"My heavens! The cultivation levels of these soldiers are so high!"

"So many True Immortal Realm experts!"

"This is terrifying; is this the power of Qin Emperor, no wonder he was able to capture the Sacred Emperor!"

"It seems the imperial court will truly be renamed after Qin!"

"That’s not too bad. A change of dynasty is overdue!"

The citizens tumultuously discussed the events. Many had long been dissatisfied with the Sacred Emperor, and as more and more forces switched allegiances to Qin Jun, the trend became clear, with very few people still cursing Qin Jun.

The swift change of heart among the citizens of the Holy City surprised many forces and clans that had already submitted, and it also filled them with sorrow.

The imperial court had long been corrupt!

It could be said that if the top beam is not straight, the bottom ones will go askew. During the confrontation with Ping Tian Demon Sovereign, the Sacred Emperor did not dare to act, everyone felt endangered. Had the Qin Emperor not taken action, the Human Clan of the Southern Domain might have already been swallowed by the Demon Clan.

Meanwhile, Qin Jun gathered all the officials in the imperial palace.

Wearing the Nine Dragons Supreme Emperor’s robe, Qin Jun sat high on the throne that once belonged to the Sacred Emperor, and everyone knelt in unison:

"We pay our respects to Qin Emperor! May the Emperor live forever, forever and ever!"

Looking around, there were not a thousand people, there were at least several hundreds.

Besides the officials of Great Qin, most of the civil and military officials of the Holy City were also present. Qin Jun did not carry out a complete purge as it was a time for employing people.

The Holy Officials were there too, and because of Jin Wuhui, Qin Jun had spared him, although he was no longer a Holy Official.

"From today, the imperial court will be renamed," Qin Jun said, his hands braced on his knees and a light smile playing on his lips, as he surveyed those below. His voice reached everyone’s ears and immediately caused an uproar in the court.
