I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

The Hengyu Cauldron contains the most powerful technique recorded in the Four Extremes Volume of the Hengyu Scripture.

It requires not only extremely high talent, but also a vast amount of resources to master.

The Jiang family was exiled to such a remote place as the Northern Region; they shouldn't have had those conditions.

Most importantly, how did Shen Ming obtain the Four Extremes Scroll?

The great battle of yesteryear was not as dramatic as this one; it was truly a scene of darkness and bloodshed.

In the end, both the Jiang and Li families reached their limits and had no choice but to sit down and negotiate.

The Jiang family preserved their lineage, left the Central Region, and handed over their clan lands and the Four Extremes Scroll.

To ensure absolute safety, the Li family repeatedly confirmed that the Four Extremes Scroll remained in the Central Region, thus eliminating the possibility of the Jiang family sweeping back in.

Just then, the Hengyu Cauldron crashed down as if it had fallen. The Li family's quasi-king elder, disregarding his surprise, unleashed his strongest divine power.

This quasi-king of the Li family is already old and has no hope of reaching the king realm in his lifetime, but his move still makes the young supreme beings in the city tremble with fear.

Five Thunder God Transformation Hand!

With a loud shout, he swung his arms forward, and the lightning flashing at his fingertips suddenly magnified, transforming into five bolts of lightning as thick as water buckets, roaring out from his palms like five angry dragons.

A gigantic hand of light quickly formed, crackling with lightning and shining as brightly as if a blazing sun had appeared in the sky.

Among the cultivators of the Upper Realm, those at the Quasi-King level and below the Sovereign Realm wore solemn expressions.

The Hengyu Cauldron released a dazzling cyan-gold color, and the natal magic weapon forged from celestial gold displayed its divine power at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, it stood like a small mountain in front of the Five Thunder Transformation Heaven Hand.

The cyan-gold light grew even brighter, like a cyan-gold sun, and ripples spread through the space wherever the light touched.

The moment the Five Thunder Transformation Heaven Hand made contact with the Hengyu Cauldron, a deafening roar erupted in the sky.

Sparks flew everywhere where the lightning collided with the cauldron, like dazzling fireworks blooming in the sky.

The Five Thunder Transformation Heaven Hand continuously struck the cauldron, with thick bolts of lightning like angry dragons roaming across its surface, trying to find a breakthrough.

However, the cauldron remained completely still, while the Five Thunder Transformation Hand could not withstand it and, without any suspense, collapsed and vanished into the sky.

Li Jiazhunwang coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper.

"Is this the Li family's strongest tactic? Nothing special!" Shen Ming said coldly.

Both are quasi-kings, but they are not even a match for each other in one round.

The rivalry between Jiang Ming and the Li family is now obvious.

Hengyu Ding continued to smash towards Li Qiushui.

Even if only one-tenth of its power remained, it would still be something Li Qiushui couldn't withstand.

"Senior brother, save me!" Li Qiushui could only plead for help.

Somewhere in Jiuli City, a dazzling light streaked across the sky like a shooting star, and within the light, a magnificent young man stepped through the void.

A burst of intensely hot energy erupted from the void.

A gigantic golden sun appeared out of thin air, and within it, flames burned fiercely. These flames were not ordinary red, but rather a pure, white-gold color.

As the flames flickered, they coalesced into a gigantic divine sword.

The enormous divine sword, carrying world-destroying power, roared towards the Hengyu Cauldron.

The moment the divine sword made contact with the cauldron, the surrounding air instantly boiled, generating wave after wave of intense heat that rolled outwards.

The Hengyu Cauldron, weakened by the attack from the Li family's quasi-king, trembled violently after this blow.

Shen Ming raised an eyebrow and put the Hengyu Cauldron back.

Unexpectedly, the young man's gaze sharpened, and a total of nine divine swords appeared around him.

The nine divine swords spun, gradually forming a giant sword wheel.

As the sword wheel spun, it emitted a series of sharp whistling sounds.

Wherever the sword wheel passed, the space itself was scorched and distorted.

The young man roared, and his sword wheel lunged at the Hengyu Cauldron, intending to melt it!

This was Shen Ming's natal magic weapon. Although the young man didn't say a word, his attack was extremely ruthless.

Because this is a sword cultivator who has already reached the Heavenly Sword Realm!

Yang Long, the divine son of the Creation Academy, and the hunter followed by the Li family!

He was a well-known figure even on foreign battlefields, and was immediately recognized.

Shen Ming formed a complex and wondrous hand seal, and the Hengyu Cauldron let out a whooshing sound, successfully breaking free from the sword wheel and returning to his palm.

Yang Long's gaze sharpened as he weighed whether a major battle was worthwhile.

"Yang Long, let's join forces and kill him here."

Another change occurred; a chilling aura swept in like a biting wind, and a middle-aged man appeared as if a god of war had descended.

He was clad in a simple yet exquisitely crafted suit of armor, each plate gleaming with a cold metallic sheen.

"Zhan Tian! The Champion Marquis's personal general, and the commander of the Hundred Victories Battle Camp!"

The Marquis of Champion commands seven armies, but his true trump card is the invincible battle camp beside him, his personal guards.

Zhan Tian, ​​commander of the Hundred Victories Camp.

The crowd erupted in uproar. As a close follower of the champion, Zhan Tian was not a hunter.

Their presence here clearly indicates they were ordered to kill Shen Ming.

This was expected by many, as Shen Ming had previously wiped out the Red Serpent Army of the Champion Marquis at Black and White Mountain.

Marquis of Champion is known for his vengeance and his determination to repay debts.

What distinguishes Zhan Tian from other quasi-kings is his long spear, the shaft of which is as thick as a bowl and forged from an unknown black metal.

Its cold gleam is fully revealed; with just a gentle stab, it can pierce through everything.

It is a legendary weapon forged from one's own blood essence, possessing immense power comparable to Yang Long's Heavenly Sword realm.

"If I draw my sword, I need no help."

Yang Long sheathed his sword wheel, unwilling to fight any longer.

"Senior brother?" Li Qiushui, who had almost died, didn't understand. This was a great opportunity.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Yang Long glared at her, scaring Li Qiushui into not daring to act rashly.

Sword cultivators are all mentally unstable.

Zhan Tian grumbled inwardly and looked at Shen Ming. "The Marquis asked me to pass on a message to you."

He paused for a moment, then said, "It won't just be you who dies, it will be your entire clan!"

The execution of nine generations of a family was a common method used by imperial dynasties to display their anger.

Shen Ming revealed his identity, having anticipated this, but it was currently during the hunting war, and people from the Upper Realm could not leave the Central Region.

He wanted to become king in the hunting battle and kill the champion marquis. After that, he wouldn't have to worry about implicating his clan.

However, hearing such a threat still makes me angry.

"He deliberately provoked you to make a move, so as to create an opportunity for other people who were eyeing the opportunity."

At this moment, someone relayed to him: "The Marquis of Champion has already set up a trap in the city, so don't fall into it."

Shen Ming glanced at Yang Long, then looked at the other hunters who were quasi-kings in the city.

"I also intend to cut off the Champion Marquis's head."

He looked up at the Hundred Battles Royal Court, the royal guard of the War King's Hall, which was the final checkpoint of the Hunting War.

These words caused an uproar throughout the city.

When the Marquis of Champion threatened others with the execution of his entire family, no one was surprised, because he was capable of doing such a thing.

However, for a native cultivator from the Xuanhuang Continent to say he would cut off the head of the Champion Marquis of the Panyue Dynasty is simply dreaming.
