The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

The sword energy unleashed by the black-clad man at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm shattered instantly under Nie Kuangren's strike!

The weapon, its power undiminished, slashed down at the man in black!

"Killing Blade Array?"

"What an incredibly powerful battle formation!"

The black-clad man, at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "However, with such strength, you think you can stop me? I'm afraid you can't!"

Boom!

An extremely cold aura erupted from the man in black!

He transformed into a giant black python tens of feet long, his terrifying aura seemingly capable of tearing space apart.

After transforming into a demon, the black-clad man's aura clearly indicated that he had progressed from the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm to the Celestial Realm!

It wasn't just this one black-clad man at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm who transformed into a demon; the other ten black-clad men at the Immortal Ascension Realm level also transformed into demons.

After each of the men in black transformed into a demon, their cultivation level skyrocketed.

The weakest among them had reached the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, or even the Celestial Realm.

He was only slightly weaker than the black-clad man at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm.

Their appearances included a black python, a black tiger, a two-headed bear, and a golden ape.

"Let's join forces!"

The black python roared, and an enormous tail swept towards the killing blade energy.

One by one, the demons attacked the killing blade energy.

Let's gather the power of all demons and monsters to fight against this deadly blade of energy!

Clearly, they had realized that the killing intent unleashed by Nie Kuangren was incredibly terrifying; even if they transformed into demons, none of them alone could withstand it!

Rumble!

The killing blade energy slashed down!

The group of demons were sent flying backwards!

Bang!Bang!Bang!

All the demons coughed up blood and flew hundreds of meters away. After landing, they transformed from their demonic forms into human shapes.

This scene shocked countless masters throughout the capital.

They could all see that Nie Kuangren's cultivation level was only at the second level of the Ascension Realm in external martial arts.

However, with the killing blade formation composed of three thousand elite Imperial Guards, they completely crushed all the demons!

It should be noted that among these eleven demons, the one with the highest cultivation level was the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, and when he revealed his demon form, his cultivation level had already reached the second level of the Celestial Realm.

Besides this demon, there were three other experts who had reached the first level of the Celestial Realm after transforming into human form.

Four experts at the Celestial Realm, and the remaining seven, after transforming into incarnations, also reached the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm.

Such strength couldn't withstand a single strike from Nie Kuangren!

The power of the Embroidered Uniform Guard's killing blade formation was far greater and more terrifying than they had imagined!

"With this level of strength, where does your confidence come from?"

Nie Kuangren looked at the eleven demons lying motionless on the ground with contempt and said in a cold voice, "Send them all to the Imperial Prison."

Get them to talk in the shortest possible time!

"This official needs to know everything they know about the Heavenly Demon Sect!"

If he hadn't wanted to spare the lives of these demons, they would have been completely annihilated by the killing blade energy!

He didn't unleash the true power of the Killing Blade Formation at all.

"Yes!"

A centurion from the Northern Garrison responded and, along with a group of Imperial Guards, carried all eleven demons, who were now powerless to resist, into the Northern Garrison's office.

"Too weak."

"The Heavenly Demon Sect only sent this many people?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said.

"My lord, the Heavenly Demon Sect has underestimated the strength of our Embroidered Uniform Guard."

"However, I am worried that the Heavenly Demon Sect will make another move after they have learned about the strength of our Embroidered Uniform Guard."

Li Jingtian said with a solemn expression.

"You shouldn't dare."

Chu Xiu pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "However, we do need to be more vigilant."

You will personally oversee the Northern Garrison Command.

"Ensure the Northern Garrison Command's office is absolutely safe!"

Li Jingtian was second only to him in strength among all the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

His cultivation level has reached the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, and he is only one step away from the Celestial Realm.

With the Killing Blade Formation, his strength should be enough to reach the peak of the ninth level of the Celestial Realm, or even the Human Immortal Realm, which is not impossible.

As for exactly how far it can go, Chu Xiu hasn't witnessed it firsthand, so he can't be sure.

However, there was absolutely no problem with Li Jingtian's strength increasing dramatically!

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jingtian's expression turned solemn, and he spoke in a firm and powerful voice.

"I have three Taiyi Golden Pills here."

"One for you, one for Nie Kuangren, and one for Ximen Jue."

"You are responsible for delivering Nie Kuangren's and Ximen Jue's Taiyi Golden Pills."

With a flick of his sleeve, Chu Xiu summoned a series of white porcelain bottles that floated in front of Li Jingtian.

He only had one elixir of immortality left.

This is also why he has not rewarded Li Jingtian and the other two.

Now that we have ten Taiyi Golden Pills, which are no weaker than the Ten Thousand Buddha Golden Pills, we can naturally bestow Taiyi Golden Pills as a reward.

Chu Xiu planned to leave the remaining Ten Thousand Buddha Golden Pill in the Chu residence.

"My lord, what is this Taiyi Golden Elixir?"

Li Jingtian was stunned for a moment, then caught the three white porcelain bottles and asked Chu Xiu.

He also knew that their Embroidered Uniform Guard now possessed a large quantity of elixirs.

People like Fang Heng have even taken the Wanfo Golden Pill, a peerless elixir that can cleanse the marrow and enhance one's talent and aptitude.

However, he had never heard of the Taiyi Golden Elixir.

"The Taiyi Golden Elixir is a peerless spiritual elixir of Taoism that is no weaker than the Ten Thousand Buddha Golden Elixir."

"Like the Golden Elixir of Ten Thousand Buddhas, it has the effect of cleansing the marrow and enhancing one's natural talents and aptitudes."

"The three of you already possess considerable talent and aptitude; after consuming the Taiyi Golden Pill, you will undoubtedly be able to enhance your abilities once again!"

Chu Xiu smiled slightly and looked at Li Jingtian, saying, "You are now only one step away from the Celestial Realm."

After consuming the Taiyi Golden Elixir, one might have the opportunity to reach the realm of celestial beings in one fell swoop!

Become the first peerless master of the Celestial Realm level in our Embroidered Uniform Guard!

Although the Taiyi Golden Elixir cannot enhance one's cultivation level.

However, Li Jingtian himself was a prodigy, even a peerless prodigy.

They are incredibly close to reaching the Celestial Realm.

If his talent and aptitude were to improve once again, he might actually be able to break through in one fell swoop.

"Thank you, sir. I will never forget your kindness in saving me!"

"I will serve you, my lord, and our Embroidered Uniform Guard with utmost loyalty, even unto death!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jingtian was deeply moved. He tightly gripped the three white porcelain bottles, knelt down before Chu Xiu, and said in a resounding voice.

"I do not need you to devote yourself to the cause until your dying breath."

"This official still needs to do for His Majesty, and for our Great Zhou Dynasty, to crush all the sects and aristocratic families in the world!"

Chu Xiu smiled calmly and said without any emotion.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Jingtian said with unwavering determination.

Chu Xiu waved to Li Jingtian and remained silent.

Li Jingtian bowed and then disappeared from the spot. He wanted to give a Taiyi Golden Pill to Ximen Jue first, and then head to the Northern Garrison Office.
