Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

"The tyrant Gu Yang's methods are ruthless, giving us no chance to survive at all. Now that the Heavenly Patrol Guard is conducting large-scale searches, we must be cautious and not be careless!"

In a secluded manor, a group of people had gathered here.

These people.

Were those who had rebelled against the Divine Martial Dynasty, but were eventually crushed by the Divine Martial Iron Cavalry.

They gathered here to wait for the right moment to find an opportunity to overthrow the Divine Martial.

After all.

Anyone who could appear here held a deep hatred for the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Overthrowing the Divine Martial.

Was their singular objective.

However.

At this moment.

A powerful aura suddenly appeared, instantly covering the entire manor.

Every rebel's face changed drastically in that instant.

"What is happening!!"

When they stepped out of the hall and rose into the air, they saw outside the manor a dense crowd of cultivators encircling it completely.

Upon seeing the attire of the approaching individuals, everyone's expression turned drastically.

"Heavenly Patrol Guard!!"

"Retreat—"

Those three words, Heavenly Patrol Guard!

Were like a terrifying mountain and a bloodthirsty butcher's knife to them. They were well aware that their strength was far from sufficient to resist the experts of the Heavenly Patrol Guard.

Moreover.

Since the Heavenly Patrol Guard had arrived.

Would the Divine Martial army be far behind?

After all, now more than half of the Eastern Domain belonged to the Divine Martial. Any disturbance would immediately be met with army suppression.

In such a situation, these people naturally did not want to fight the Heavenly Patrol Guard to the death.

As the cultivators attempted to break through, Nanyue Mountain's expression was indifferent.

"Kill all the rebel scum, leave none alive!"

With the command given.

The Heavenly Patrol Guard immediately took action.

A fierce battle.

Had erupted above the manor.

The battle.

Started quickly and ended just as swiftly.

The Heavenly Patrol Guard of today was far from what they used to be, with Seventh Layer Dao Palace Realm experts aplenty. As Commander, Nanyue Mountain had long since broken through to the Seventh Layer of the Dao Palace Realm.

Moreover, since the Divine Martial Dynasty annihilated numerous factions, the Imperial Palace now held countless top-tier Divine Skills. As Commander of the Heavenly Patrol Guard, Nanyue Mountain naturally had the qualifications to cultivate these top-tier skills.

Consequently.

Nanyue Mountain, though only Seventh Layer, had power comparable to Ninth Layer Dao Palace Realm experts.

As for these rebel scum, the best among them were only at the Third Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, far from being on the same tier as the Heavenly Patrol Guard.

"Reporting to the Commander, all rebels have been slaughtered, not a single one left alive!"

Li Changfeng stepped forward respectfully.

Nanyue Mountain nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Conduct a thorough search, leave no hidden danger."

Eradicating this place.

Was a mere routine for him.

Having received Gu Yang's edict, Nanyue Mountain was naturally not careless.

This battle.

Soon spread throughout.

Upon learning the news, many cultivators were shocked, their fear of the Heavenly Patrol Guard growing deeper.

"These court hounds are truly troublesome, Nanyue Mountain ought to die!"

Someone could not help but curse aloud, but as he spoke, he noticed the silence around him, with those previously close to him unconsciously moving away, afraid to be associated with him.

Seeing this, the speaker's face turned pale, and he hurriedly left, covering his face.

The current Divine Martial Dynasty was the true heaven of the Eastern Domain; openly criticizing it would have dire consequences.

Especially when Gu Yang's edict was issued, the Heavenly Patrol Guard's murdering rebels everywhere caused a great shock.

Therefore.

When someone dared to express dissatisfaction with the Divine Martial Dynasty openly, others naturally avoided him, fearing that his blood might splatter onto them.

This scene.

Was naturally seen by others.

"Disciple, your Divine Martial Gu Family is now at the peak, dominating the Eastern Domain. It seems it won't take long to challenge the Divine Dynasty!"

Sword Lord Xiao sighed, his words full of awe for the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Strangely enough.

His voice was loud, yet it did not reach a third person's ears.

Gu Shengnan heard the words, a faint smile appearing on her cold face.

"If it weren't for Grandpa suppressing the three Imperial Clans, it would not have been possible for my brother to dominate the Eastern Domain so quickly."

"Indeed, your Grandpa is truly extraordinary. I had already tried to estimate his power as high as I could, but apparently, I have underestimated him all along!"

Upon hearing Gu Qingfeng's name, Sword Lord Xiao's expression became even more respectful.

Such a powerful figure.

Awe-inspiring and unparalleled throughout ages.

Even at Sword Sect's peak, few could rival him.

Sword Lord Xiao even doubted whether the other had already proven himself as a Great Emperor.

However.

If the other had succeeded in breaking through, as a member of the Gu Family's direct lineage, Gu Shengnan would bathe in the Great Emperor bloodline. Yet, despite her extraordinary talent, the blood flowing in her was not that of a Great Emperor, indicating that the Gu Family ancestor had not yet reached the Emperor Realm.

Therefore, it was even more shocking.

Not a Great Emperor!

Yet capable of severely injuring an Ancient Great Emperor!

If one day the other reaches the Emperor Realm, he will undoubtedly be an invincible figure.

With such a presence supporting the Divine Martial Dynasty, elevating to an Imperial Dynasty would be easy, and even further advancement to rival the Taiyi Divine Dynasty was not impossible.

"According to Sword Sect records, during the ancient times, the Taiyi Divine Dynasty's Divine Emperor wielded supreme authority over the world, and his terrifying force made many Great Emperors willingly bow down.

It was due to the Divine Emperor's unparalleled might that the Taiyi Divine Dynasty ruled the entire Ancient Desolate World, becoming the first Divine Dynasty of all time!"
