Chapter 760: Chapter 760: Declaration of War, Pointing Swords towards the Western Region

"The Holy Emperor has broken through!"

An excited demon king at the Taiyi Realm shouted, his voice spreading throughout the entire Holy City, instantly causing an uproar.

Atop the mountain peak, the dragon Qi transformed into a Five-clawed Golden Dragon that roared and swiftly enlarged, becoming a hundred zhang tall in the blink of an eye, so even those standing at the base of the mountain could see a magnificent Golden Dragon swirling in the void.

Qin Jun, with his upper body bare, clenched his fists as his muscles rippled, and spiritual energy surged into his body crazily, transforming him into the eye of a tornado, and even the soldiers of the Weiqin Army could barely avoid being blown away.

"Hisss—His Majesty the Holy Emperor has finally broken through!"

"Hahaha! The youngest Golden Immortal in history!"

"So cool! His Majesty’s dragon Qi is powerful!"

"He slapped a palm imprint on the thunder clouds of the heavenly tribulation. How spectacular!"

"Invincible! Now we can send troops to the Western Regions!"

Countless cultivators and demon folk roared excitedly, reminiscent of the previous fervor when Qin Jun had garnered the recognition of the Heavenly Dao through his magic.

The military generals were just as thrilled.

"Hahaha! I knew His Majesty would break through with ease; even the legendary Immortal God Manifestation Tribulation is nothing to fret over!" Li Yuanba laughed heartily, already fantasizing about the campaign across the Western Regions.

Atop Saint Sect Peak, Daji and the other women were overjoyed to the point of tears, as if they themselves had broken through.

Tang Sanzang brought his hands together and intoned, "Amitabha."

Zhu Bajie, beside him, wasn’t as agitated, saying excitedly, "Master, now we can go save Monkey Brother!"

Sha Wujing also took a deep breath; everyone was waiting for this moment.

For Qin Jun, it was simply another step up, but for the entire Heavenly Court of Great Qin, it marked the beginning of washing away disgrace.

The existence of the Western Regions was the shame of the Heavenly Court of Great Qin!

At the summit of Saint Emperor Peak.

Qin Jun raised his hands, basking in the invigorating rush of spiritual energy filling his body, dispersing the Immortal God Manifestation Tribulation with two palms, refusing to let it stubbornly recongeal, but rather, as if frightened, dispelling the mists to reveal the sun once more.

Having broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm, he could now specifically summon Daluo Immortals!

Four Daluo Immortals descended with oppressive might!

He refused to believe that the severely injured Tathāgata could still defy fate!

In his joy, Qin Jun let out a long howl that resonated throughout the entire city, followed by a tsunami of celebratory roars!

The shouts of millions of beings together were indeed an earth-shattering force!

The Five-clawed Golden Dragon coiling around Qin Jun had now grown to three hundred zhang in length, equivalent to nearly a kilometer, proudly standing beneath the Cangqiong.

Qin Jun leaped into the air, flew to the top of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon’s head, and looked down upon the entire Holy City where millions of beings were still shouting, and his own blood continued to boil.

He had finally broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm!

"I decree, three days from now, the army will march to the Western Regions!"

Qin Jun declared with a smile, laughing aloud.

The legions of the Heavenly Court of Great Qin had long since been preparing for war, awaiting just this command.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Millions of beings chanted in unison, their voices combining to instill dread in the hearts of the enemy.

"System, I’ve broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm, won’t you give me some reward?"

Qin Jun thought with a chuckle, already pondering whom to summon.

The Daluo Immortal Realm would allow him to summon many powerful beings.

He could take the second generation disciples of the Three Teachings out for a spin.

"Greed is the original sin!" the system responded without enthusiasm.

No matter how Qin Jun pleaded, it would not grant him a reward, making him itch with irritation.

Then the generals gathered to offer their congratulations to Qin Jun.

Qin Jun waved his hand and said with a laugh, "Alright, my dear officials, prepare for battle. The Heavenly Soldier Elite, the Heavenly River Navy, the Jiuli Demon Troops, the Weiqin Army, the Golden Peng Army..."

He started calling out names, listing a total of twenty legions, clearly intending to conquer the Western Regions in one fell swoop.

...

Half an hour later.

Qin Jun came to the Imperial Garden to adjust the surge in his mana. After reaching the Golden Immortal Realm, his understanding of the Ziwei Emperor Star’s Dao fruit became more profound, his spirit even more powerful, and his body underwent a qualitative transformation. Compared to before the breakthrough, he was easily more than ten times stronger.

"System, can I summon Xing Tian, who is at the pinnacle of the Daluo Immortal Realm?"

Qin Jun asked inwardly. Xing Tian, known as the most formidable Great Witch, even had legends of beheading the Heavenly Emperor. He was absolutely one of the most suitable God and Demons for battle.

The true God of War.

Aside from Xing Tian, Zhao Gongming, Her Highness Sanxiao, the twelve immortals of the Chan Sect, and so on, all held great potential.

Especially Zhao Gongming and Her Highness Sanxiao, who performed exceptionally in the war of Investiture of the Gods. Zhao Gongming made the twelve immortals of the Chan Sect flee in a sorry state, while those twelve immortals were the masters of Yang Jian, Nezha, and others.

The sisters of Zhao Gongming, also known as Her Highness Sanxiao, were even more ferocious, almost ending the war of the Investiture of the Gods, had the Saints not intervened in time.

All of them were ruthless figures.

"Yes, Host, do you wish to summon them now?" the System replied affirmatively.

Qin Jun narrowed his eyes and inquired, "If I summon a Daluo ultimate Immortal, they should be able to arrive immediately, right?"

If summoned now, Tathāgata, if he got wind of it in advance, would certainly think of ways to flee or defend.

Qin Jun intended to summon Xing Tian during the battle, to fight against heaven and earth, to thoroughly trounce Tathāgata!

"Under most circumstances, it should be so!" the System quickly responded.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun’s smile grew even wider.

He had accumulated six opportunities for God and Demon instance, which could also be merged into God and Demon summoning opportunities.

There were still three pinnacle God and Demon opportunities.

Luo Shixin’s loyalty could never reach full value, and Xiang Yu would automatically strengthen, potentially restoring to peak God and Demon before possibly rebelling.

Finally, there was Bai Ze, of whom Qin Jun was always uncertain.

Therefore, he planned to keep the three pinnacle God and Demon opportunities for himself.

Giving them to other God and Demons, whose potential was limited, wouldn’t be of much help.

Moreover, triggering missions now was no longer as easy as before; they all required caution.

While contemplating, Qin Jun looked up at the sky to the west.

"Tathāgata, it’s time to settle the accounts! Sun Wukong, wait for me to save you!"

Qin Jun murmured to himself. The Iron-armored War God had recently become notoriously renowned because he wielded a golden staff and possessed seventy-two transformations. The Great Qin Celestial Court quickly guessed that the Iron-armored War God was Sun Wukong.

But the Iron-armored War God was elusive, disappearing without a trace after each war, giving the Great Qin Celestial Court no opportunity to capture him.

...

News of the Holy Emperor of Qin’s breakthrough into the Golden Immortal Realm spread like a whirlwind throughout the lands.

Unlike before, all forces were now watching the Great Qin Celestial Court closely, and the slightest rumblings there would spread rapidly.

The Great Qin Celestial Court couldn’t possibly eliminate all spies since there were so many people.

"Tsk tsk, breaking through to the Golden Immortal Realm before even turning twenty..."

"Even as a reincarnation of a war deity, it shouldn’t be like this..."

"It’s so unfair, why should it be him..."

"We strive for a lifetime and may never reach the Golden Immortal Realm!"

"Has the Great Qin Celestial Court already started a war in the Western Regions?"

All domains buzzed with discussions. The Holy Emperor of Qin’s breakthrough to the Golden Immortal Realm broke the record for the fastest advancement to that level in nearly a hundred thousand years.

It inspired the younger generation immensely, with countless beings setting him as their target, even the reclusive ancient breeds discussed him.

At present, Qin Jun was undoubtedly the most talked-about person in the entire world.

There were even those who said the Holy Emperor of Qin could surpass the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny.

For a time, the Holy Emperor of Qin was practically exalted to the heavens, placed shoulder to shoulder with the bright sun.
