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

Mount Shenyi is entirely covered with dark red thorns, comparable to divine gold and immortal iron, incredibly hard, with extremely sharp thorns.

This created a vast and inescapable net, trapping Su Lianyun and other potential emperors.

Su Lianyun raised the Thunder Sword Domain to resist the thorns.

The Celestial Ox, the Golden Qilin, the Nine-Headed Lion, and the Five-Colored Deer fought bathed in divine light, each one exhilarated and excited.

These pure-blooded aliens felt they had no strength left to use.

That is, the sacred mountain. If it were any other mountain, it would have collapsed long ago in this great battle.

"Dean Su, what are we waiting for?!" Dao Wang shouted.

"What are we waiting for? We will dominate the battlefields beyond our borders!"

Hun Tian Niu spoke first, shouting, "You drove away the Pan Yue Dynasty, but instead you've freed our clan from its shackles!"

Above the sky, the powerful human warriors watching the battle exchanged bewildered glances.

The situation is starting to get out of control; today's target is not only the Eternal Emperor's Son, but all of humanity.

"If we allow the alien races to become powerful, our human race will lose the battlefields beyond our borders."

Some people realized this and called for a joint effort.

However, the thorns in the sacred mountain deterred many from venturing there.

"Gentlemen! Join us in conquering the alien races! You will be rewarded handsomely!"

This is exactly what Su Lianyun has been waiting for; he wants to rebuild the human race's order on the battlefield outside the domain.

Order cannot exist without the distribution of benefits.

The problem is not scarcity but inequality; once distribution is uneven, it will not last long.

It requires a great battle and a test, just like the merit of following the emperor at the beginning of a secular dynasty.

"You're still dreaming even when you're about to die! What makes you think you can win!" The nine-headed lion roared menacingly, "It's a pity your imperial prince is dead, otherwise we could have taken him as a war servant!"

The imperial prince is dead?!

On the Eternal Warship, the academy disciples were in a panic. Wasn't Elder Hua Hao supposed to have left with the Imperial Prince?

"Don't you understand? Your elders are also part of the plan!" Hun Tian Niu mocked.

"Impossible!" Hua Nan shouted angrily. He and Hua Hao were fellow disciples of the same generation.

He recalled Hua Hao's strange behavior just now, which clearly showed a lack of confidence.

The golden unicorn roared with laughter and charged forward, engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

The five-colored deer leaped several times in the void, shouting towards the sky in a magnetic and sacred voice.

"Willing to serve you voluntarily bring you protection!"

One side calls on humanity to fight back, while the other side demands that humanity surrender.

Many of the humans who were just there to watch the spectacle were caught off guard and looked at each other, hoping someone would take the lead and show some action.

“In the eyes of servants, there is only kneeling and standing. You kneel down to God in devotion, but you have no idea what it means to be human.”

Some people disagreed, and the one who spoke was a young human who was only at the first level of the Dominator Realm.

But it was precisely this kind of person who dared to stand up.

In an instant, many people echoed the call, gathered together, and charged toward the sacred mountain.

Of course, these people account for less than a third.

Two-thirds are still observing, or have already left.

Among them, the majority are independent cultivators. They have no powerful forces to restrain them, so they naturally won't shed blood or risk their lives for this cause.

"act recklessly."

The Five-Colored Deer scoffed; among the pure-blooded alien races, he possessed the strongest divinity.

Faced with the onslaught of reinforcements, the Thorns of God were like enraged beasts. The thorns turned from their previous dark red to deep black, radiating a chilling light.

"Something's wrong!"

The Sword King's gaze sharpened, and he suddenly swung his sword, only to find that the moment he touched the dark thorns, they eroded a hideous gash in his blade.

"These thorns... are even stronger than before!" The Fire Spirit King's flames were completely ineffective against the thorns, and were directly annihilated.

"retreat!"

The reinforcements stopped abruptly and could only observe from the outside.

The sacred mountain emitted a deafening roar, and the blood-red thorns spread out on the ground as if they possessed sentience.

In the very center, a thorn bush slowly rises, its trunk resembling a massive obsidian pillar, with a crimson flower blooming at its top.

Some people looked terrified. They could clearly sense that the blood-red flower contained a world-destroying power, as if it had gathered the killing intent of the entire mountain.

"Dark power? How can there be dark power?!"

Some well-informed elderly people were shocked.

"Divine Mountain alien race, are you destined to become an ancient race?"

"What is ancient, what is different, are just your human race's terms!" The Hun Tian Niu didn't care about the distinction.

"To dominate the battlefields beyond our borders, you must call us Ancient Emperors!"

The golden unicorn roared.

Meanwhile, Su Lianyun and others, who were located within the sacred mountain area, were in grave danger.

Su Lianyun frowned, wondering if Shen Ming could face him.

Just then, a dazzling sword light struck down from the sky.

As the sword light appeared, the killing intent in the entire valley seemed to be torn apart. The towering thorn tide froze instantly under the sword intent, as if it had encountered the pressure of a natural enemy. All the blood-red thorns shrank and curled up in an instant, not daring to go any further.

"Who!" The five-colored deer looked up, its eyes filled with shock.

A tall, slender figure broke through the air, his robes fluttering and surrounded by sword energy.

He exuded a chilling aura, holding the Great Luo Sword, and slowly walked through the void.

"The Emperor's son!" Nangong Qian exclaimed, her eyes filled with disbelief and a hint of anticipation.

Shen Ming sensed the distorted faces on the flowers and the endless killing intent deep within the formation.

He remembered the demonic tree on the Xuanhuang Continent last time.

One is a magic tree, and the other is a magic flower.

“Last time it was Jian Li who came to kill, this time it’s my turn.”

Shen Ming gripped the sword hilt tightly, and the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be instantly drained away, gathering at the tip of the sword.

"God-Slaying Sword Technique - Third Form!"

The moment the sword light appeared, the world lost its color!

A dazzling sword beam traversed the valley, shooting out from Shen Ming's sword tip and heading straight for the crimson giant flower and the mountainside.

Wherever the sword's light passed, space was sliced ​​open like thin paper, leaving behind deep, incomparably black cracks.

"boom--!"

The entire sacred mountain trembled violently, the giant blood-red flower emitted a piercing scream, and countless blood-red thorns snapped in response.

Su Lianyun and the others seized the opportunity and escaped into the sky.

The God-Slaying Sword didn't stop, and finally cleaved straight into the main peak of the sacred mountain, completely severing the mountain in two!

With a tremendous roar, the mountain collapsed, and the Thorns of God were reduced to ashes, leaving not even a trace of their power behind.

Everyone looked at each other, stunned by what they saw.

They were just in despair, and then Shen Ming wiped it all out with a single sword strike!

"You should have said so earlier, you should have said so earlier."

The Sword King was filled with shame, especially since he had previously advised Shen Ming not to come.

Everyone else realized it too: Shen Ming was the Sword Emperor!

There's absolutely no need to talk about any strategies. The reason we've been dragging our feet until now is to clear out the battlefields outside our territory.

Those who mustered up their courage just now may not have had a practical effect, but they will reap huge rewards!

Shen Ming slowly descended, activating his Eye of Truth, which allowed him to clearly see the pure-blooded alien race feigning death beneath the ruins.

That sword strike was mainly to sever the Thorns of God; the pure-blooded alien races are still alive.

"Kill yourself."
