Chapter 355: The Strongest Reinforcement

The strongest Great Sovereign in the group cried out, "They're just pretending!"

The faces of the other Great Sovereigns turned ugly. They could finally tell that Nalan Jia and Little White were putting on a show. In other words, Nalan Jia still had more of those spiritual artifacts.

The Great Sovereigns felt wronged. The egg-shaped spiritual artifacts were just too powerful for them to handle.

Their cover was blown, so Nalan Jia patted Little White and said, "That's enough."

Little White blinked and waved her tiny claws as if saying,

"My acting was convincing, right?"

Looking at the cute and silly Little White in front of her, Nalan Jia found her irresistible. She picked up Little White and looked at the Great Sovereigns in the distance.

"Are you coming? I have millions of them, so come here and get a taste of them!"

Millions?! The strongest Great Sovereign in the group stared with narrowed eyes at Nalan Jia.

"Are you trying to scare us?" he asked.

"I'm not lying, I really have millions of them!" Nalan Jia insisted.

However, the Great Sovereign sneered, "I don't think so."

Nalan Jia fell silent. She found it so absurd that she had no idea what to say. It seemed that the world had always been like this. Sometimes, people wouldn't believe someone whenever they were telling the truth.

It was as if people had the tendency to only believe in themselves sometimes.

The Great Sovereign became more certain of his deduction upon seeing Nalan Jia's silence.

"It seems that I'm right. Come on! Let's go and attack her together!" he roared and rushed toward Nalan Jia.

The other Great Sovereigns followed his lead.

Nalan Jia remained quiet in the face of so many Great Sovereigns. Just as they were a few meters away from Nalan Jia, she took out three large bombs and hurled them at the oncoming Great Sovereigns.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three mushroom clouds bloomed to life, blasting the ten Great Sovereigns away.

Two of them sustained severe injuries, and they were reduced to nothing but their soul forms. To make matters worse, those whose fleshly bodies had already been annihilated suffered severe injuries to their souls.

The powerful explosions attracted everyone's attention. Jingchen was particularly shocked, and his blood started boiling when he saw that Nalan Jia and Little White were still alive.

They still haven't taken them down?

Jingchen roared, "That woman is a paltry Dao Immortal, and that Spirit Progenitor is just paperweight! What's taking you so long to take them down?!"

The ten Great Sovereigns wore solemn expressions. The strongest Great Sovereign in the group spoke in a deep voice, "Lord Jingchen, this woman has too many powerful spiritual artifacts. We can't even get close to her!"

Jingchen angrily retorted, "The incompetent truly knows how to find excuses!"

The strongest Great Sovereign in the group was furious, and he roared, "What the fuck?! I'm not doing this anymore, then! Screw you, idiot!"

With that, he turned around and disappeared into the distant horizon.

He was still a mighty Great Sovereign, so how could he withstand getting scolded in the middle of a battle?

Jingchen's face alternated between blue and green as he stewed in his own fury. However, he quickly realized that the other Great Sovereigns on the battlefield were staring at him with hostile looks.

It seemed like they were reminding Jingchen that their loyalty was with the Eternal Sovereign rather than with him.

Jingchen immediately calmed down. He had almost turned everyone on him, so he hurriedly spoke to assuage everyone's fury. "She has been throwing those spiritual artifacts left and right; she must be running out of them now."

However, the Great Sovereigns chasing after Nalan Jia no longer cared about Jingchen. They retreated to the side. They dared not approach Nalan Jia. What if she had more of those spiritual artifacts?

Jingchen's face darkened at the sight, and a cold glint flickered in his eyes.

Just then, a terrifying sword light erupted from the distance.

Several Great Destiny Sovereigns were blasted away by the sword light.

Jingchen swiftly shifted his gaze to the right, where White Skirt Destiny and Slaughter were fighting the Great Destiny Sovereigns of the Eternal Civilization side.

For some reason, the two women were growing stronger with each passing moment.

Meanwhile, the Divine Sovereigns on their side hadn't been able to do anything so far, and it was all because they knew that approaching the two women was like signing their own death warrant.

Even Jingchen was afraid of the two women.

Just then, Jingchen realized something, and he turned around to charge toward Nalan Jia and Little White.

In response, Nalan Jia hurled three egg-shaped objects the size of watermelon.

Boom!

Jingchen was blasted away. As he steadied himself, he looked down at his right hand and saw that it had become translucent. To make matters worse, a mysterious energy was corroding his fleshy body.

Jingchen waved his right hand and dispersed the mysterious energy. Then, he glared at Nalan Jia and Little White with a serious expression.

Nalan Jia opened her palm, revealing two large bombs.

She stared quietly at Jingchen.

Jingchen's expression darkened at the sight. Was it true that she had millions of those egg-shaped spiritual artifacts?

"Jingchen!" Zhan Shi suddenly shouted, "That woman is just a Dao Immortal, and the Spirit Progenitor next to her is nothing but paperweight on this battlefield. Can you take care of them soon?!"

Zhan Shi was struggling against An Nanjing's relentless attacks.

Jingchen's face became as dark as the bottom of a pot. He knew that he had to show results soon; he had to take down the woman and the Spirit Progenitor. His plan was to capture them and use them as hostages.

The woman was the Queen of the Guanxuan Universe, so she was definitely worth a lot.

With that in mind, Jingchen opened his palm. A black token took to the sky, and it erupted into a column of terrifying dark light. A powerful aura churned from the column of dark light, and a black-robed man slowly walked out of the column.

He was a Great Destiny Sovereign

Jingchen said in a deep voice, “Gu Zuoshi, I appreciate your help."

Gu Zuoshi took a deep breath and turned to look at White Skirt Destiny and Slaughter. He was just about to make a move when Jingchen suddenly pointed at Nalan Jia in the distance and shouted, "Take them down first!"

Gu Zuoshi turned to look at Nalan Jia and Little White.

"Why are they so weak?" asked Gu Zuoshi.

"Gu Zuoshi, do not underestimate them," Jingchen warned, "The woman is carrying an unknown number of incredibly powerful one-time-use spiritual artifacts, so you have to be careful."

Gu Zuoshi chuckled lightly before throwing a punch toward Nalan Jia and Little White.

Boom!

A single punch shattered a chunk of the starry sky, and a colossal fist imprint flew toward Nalan Jia and Little White. Nalan Jia's eyes narrowed. She opened her palms and hurled three large bombs.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three powerful explosions successfully shattered the colossal fist imprint, but Gu Zuoshi wasn't done just yet. He casually threw another punch, creating another fist imprint that disintegrated the mushroom clouds.

Boom!

The Yin Yang symbol beneath Nalan Jia and Little White erupted into a dazzling light that stopped the fist imprint, but it soon grew dim. Little White waved her tiny paw, restoring the array in the blink of an eye.

"What a formidable array!" Gu Zuoshi remarked. A glint of astonishment shone in his eyes, but it was soon replaced by curiosity. He was curious about how many punches the array could take, so he took a stance and sent out a flurry of punches.

Nalan Jia and Little White felt like they were in a torrential downpour of fist imprints.

The spacetime around them was obliterated, and the Yin Yang symbol beneath their feet quivered violently as if it were a boat in the middle of a tempestuous storm in the boundless sea.

Little White waved her claws frantically to restore the array, but there were too many punches. Gu Zuoshi's relentless assault outpaced her.

Swoosh!

A streak of sword light flew across the battlefield and rushed toward Gu Zuoshi just before the Yin Yang symbol was torn apart. Gu Zuoshi's eyes narrowed, and he turned to punch the oncoming sword light.

Boom!

A dazzling light erupted as the sword light shattered into innumerable light fragments.

Ye Guan quickly retreated and stood beside Nalan Jia and Little White.

Crackle!

He glared at Gu Zuoshi as the power of lightning tribulation crackled around him.

Gu Zuoshi looked down at Ye Guan and exclaimed, "You're just a Dao Immortal?"

𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Ye Guan didn't bother responding. He transformed into a streak of sword light and slashed out toward Gu Zuoshi.

"Interesting," Gu Zuoshi said with a cold smile. He balled his hand into a fist and punched out.

Rumble!

A punch capable of annihilating worlds swept toward Ye Guan. However, Ye Guan remained undeterred. He retracted his sword and took a stance before slashing out once more—Heavenrend Quickdraw seventy stacks[1]!

Boom!

The collision created a cataclysmic explosion. Ye Guan was blasted away, but Gu Zuoshi's fist imprint had shattered.

Gu Zuoshi was taken aback, and he muttered. "What a formidable sword intent..."

Ye Guan wiped the blood trickling down the corner of his mouth. His expression was grave as he cast his gaze on Gu Zuoshi.

Gu Zuoshi was clearly stronger than the average Great Destiny Sovereign.

"Help him, Little White!" a voice echoed throughout the battlefield.

Little White blinked and turned to look at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan hurriedly said, "No, no, no... there's no need!"

He was scared of Little White's help!

However, Little White ignored his feelings and flew toward him. Her tiny claw pulled out a black talisman and slapped it on Ye Guan's shoulder.

Boom!

Ye Guan's aura skyrocketed, and he reached the Time Immortal Realm in the proverbial blink of an eye.

However, Little White wasn't done just yet.

She pressed her claw on Ye Guan's glabella.

Boom!

Ye Guan's aura surged crazily until he reached the Divine Sovereign Realm.

Ye Guan reeled from shock, but Little White suddenly embraced Ye Guan's head with both of her claws and began massaging his temples. A vortex of spiritual energy converged on Ye Guan's head and spread throughout his fleshly body.

Boom!

Ye Guan reached the Great Sovereign Realm with a powerful explosion.

I've become a Great Sovereign?!

Ye Guan's mind went blank.

Really?!

Little White extended her claw, and a crimson ancient copper shield materialized in front of her. She attached it around Ye Guan’s left arm, and Ye Guan could feel the terrifying energy fluctuations of a familiar demonic beast from the shield.

Ye Guan made a sidelong glance at Erya in the distance and saw that the shield looked similar to Erya's horns.

Was she a part of the materials used to create this shield?

Ye Guan pondered, but Little White wasn't quite done just yet. She pointed out with her tiny claws and a resonant sword hum echoed from the depths of the starry sky.

Hum!

A dazzling beam of sword light rushed from the depths of the starry sky toward Ye Guan. When the dazzling beam of sword light dissipated, Ye Guan was astonished to find the Qingxuan Sword floating in front of him. Little White then unceremoniously shoved the Qingxuan Sword into Ye Guan's right hand.

Ye Guan was beyond stupefied as he stood rooted in shock. He couldn't quite believe that he was now equipped with the hardest shield and the sharpest sword throughout the vast expanse.

1. It appears that Ye Guan can stack Heavenrends sword art seventy times in one move, and he can also emblazon them with his sword dao seventy times ?
