After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

The system's secret act of retrieving the Blood-Clad Marquis's remains startled all the quasi-emperors present.

Kunnu, in particular, watched helplessly as the Blood-Clad Marquis died before his eyes, not daring to utter a single word, and instead turned and left.

Chen Futu didn't kill him, nor did he immediately take out the other two imperial weapons to fuse with, because those old fogies hadn't started fighting yet. Once he exposed his divine weapons, the emperors present would gang up on him. Chen Futu didn't want to kill these combatants, so he suppressed the urge to fuse with them now.

"Good lad, I really underestimated you."

Chi Xiao, Gu Dao, and the female sect leader approached, while the four quasi-emperors of Hai Yuan had already retreated. They were filled with apprehension towards the junior who could instantly kill a quasi-emperor, and they did not want to offend him unless absolutely necessary.

Chen Futu asked Chixiao, "Did those Great Emperors go to the core area?"

"That's right. They searched the outer area without success, so they went to the core area together. Otherwise, the Blood Demon would have intervened just now."

Chi Xiao explained the current situation.

Although the talisman Chen Futu just used emitted a trace of the aura of an emperor, it had a suppressive effect and could not travel that far. If it were combined with a divine weapon, it would definitely be able to reach the core area.

"Let's go, let's take a look at the core area too."

Chen Futu felt that the inner world must hold other secrets, and perhaps the answer could be found in the core area.

Just to be on the safe side, Chen Futu waited for Ling Xue.

About half a day later, a group of young people returned, and together they finally took down Black Hawk.

Killing an injured Ancient Saint is a pretty good achievement.

Black Hawk was very wealthy; they divided up the spatial rings, while Ling Xue received only gold.

The Black Wolf Legion is rich in gold, and she wants to take a large amount of gold back to Lizhou to present to her master.

Upon hearing this, Chen Futu sighed inwardly, thinking, "He truly is a good disciple; I haven't spoiled him for nothing."

The group then proceeded towards the core area.

Chen Futu carefully observed the area along the way, and the closer he got to the central area, the more ominous the atmosphere seemed to be.

Upon arriving at the destination, all that could be seen was a desolate and dilapidated city gate.

Beyond the city gate, the outside world was an endless world of mist. Even with Chen Futu's current cultivation level, he could not see through the mist, as if the area outside the city gate was a dead end, containing great terror.

Ancient bones are scattered across the vast land beyond the pass, suggesting it was an ancient battlefield. The city walls are also broken and incomplete.

The emperors wandered within the city gates, searching for opportunities and good fortune, while the quasi-emperors stood atop the city walls, gazing at the misty region with solemn expressions.

Chen Futu asked the system, "Where is this place?"

"Tianyuan City Pass is a spatial interface that was forcibly integrated here by the Martial God. Once you leave the city pass, you enter Tianyuan and walk out of the inner world."

"And what is Tianyuan?"

"The mysterious realm where the Earth Vein Clan resides."

The system's words left Chen Futu speechless.

No wonder I had a chill just now; it turns out this was once the front line of the battle against the leyline race.

In the following time, Chen Futu and the others entered the city gate to search for traces of the Martial God, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

The system suddenly spoke up: "By fusing an imperial weapon into a divine weapon, the host will naturally be able to see the other party."

"Isn't it appropriate?"

Chen Futu noticed that the old men were getting impatient because they couldn't find the Martial God's inheritance. At this moment, he took out his divine weapon and was determined to fight.

To fight on the ancient battlefield where they fought against the invasion of foreign races would be a desecration of the spirits of our ancestors.

Chen Futu did not want them to see their descendants fight a civil war over a divine weapon.

The system said, "The host can leave the city gate and go to Tianyuan to fuse with the divine weapon. The fluctuations will not be transmitted back to the city gate."

"You want me to go to the territory of the leyline race? How much do you want me dead?"

"Don't worry, host. It's not time yet. The Earth Vein Clan will not break through for the time being."

Despite the system's resolute assurances, Chen Futu still felt they were somewhat unreliable. However, he could only truly understand many things by seeing the Martial God in person.

Chen Futu greeted Ling Xue and Chi Xiao, saying he was going to cross the city gate to take a look.

The two men were startled and tried to dissuade them, saying, "The area outside the pass looks dangerous; let's not take the risk."

"It's alright, I'll just take a look and come right back."

After saying this, Chen Futu leaped down from the city gate.

The quasi-emperor and the younger generation on the city wall were all astonished, none of them expecting this kid to be so bold.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that there are great dangers beyond the pass, and it is definitely not a place that ordinary people can set foot in. However, this kid's trump cards can easily kill even a quasi-emperor, so perhaps we can really find some clues.

"Brother, why don't we go take a look too?"

Lan Qiao'er also wanted to go, but Lan Minghao grabbed her and scolded, "Behave yourself. The area outside the pass is a dangerous place. Your strength is not as good as Brother Chen's. Even if you have a trump card, you may not be able to react in time and fall into a dead end."

Seeing her elder brother say that, Lan Qiao'er could only shut up reluctantly. She envied Chen Futu, whose elders let him grow up freely without any interference. She wanted such treatment too.

After observing for several days, Lan Qiao'er realized that compared to this young man surnamed Chen, she was like a flower bud raised in a greenhouse, far inferior in both combat strength and temperament.

"What a sorrowful atmosphere."

Chen Futu walked alone on the desolate plains beyond the Great Wall, where the setting sun cast its golden light. Mist drifted around him, and ancient lingering thoughts flowed by, silently recounting the grandeur of bygone years.

Do you remember the lingering remnant of the God of War saying that everyone was dead except for him? Did he take over the entrance to the Heavenly Abyss at that time?

From this perspective, the so-called land of martial god inheritance is actually an ancient battlefield.

Chen Futu bent down to examine the fragmented white bones buried in the yellow sand. To his shock, what lay before him was the remains of an ultimate emperor. Just thinking about it sent chills down his spine.

As they traveled, the system collected the remains along the way.

The points increased rapidly, but Chen Futu was not happy. All the skeletons he saw now were those of Great Emperors. The remains of Quasi-Emperors and Ancient Saints and below had long been eroded away by the thick fog, leaving nothing behind.

"Compared to the wars here, the wars between nations in other continents are like children playing house."

Chen Futu could sense the brutality of this battlefield in the past, because the emperor's remains were all mutilated, as if they had been torn apart by something.

"There are countless similar portals connecting to the mainland. If we destroy them in advance, will they be unable to cross over?"

Chen Futu's idea was far-fetched, and the system didn't hold back in criticizing it.

To close the passage between the mainland and the ley lineages, let alone an extreme emperor, even a martial god couldn't do it. At most, they could move the interface away from the mainland to avoid harming too many living beings. Moreover, moving the interface is not easy; even a martial god had to expend a great deal of effort to do it.

"Alright, I was just saying. If a real war breaks out one day, I will choose to come to the rescue."

Chen Futu wanted to ask the system if this interface could be transferred to Lizhou. If it were placed on the Wuwang Sea and surrounded by many killing formations, would it be possible to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out and wipe out a portion of their forces?
