Marrying Wives and Attaining Immortality in a Chaotic World

Chapter 391: Qian Dynasty’s Hidden Reserve Revealed!

Under the relentless assault of the seven Supremes from the Vast Domain, the protective barrier of the Imperial City emitted a cacophony of “crack, crack, crack…” as its cracks multiplied, teetering on the brink of collapse!

Meanwhile, as Huangpu Yan continued his chanting, the sound of something monstrous crawling through the passageways deep within the palace grew louder and clearer.

At this point, there was no room for compromise. Both sides were determined to force the other into submission.

Everyone in the Imperial City was on edge, their scalps tingling with tension. Life and death hung in the balance.

Even the Supreme-level experts from the various top-tier forces, who were observing the battle from afar across vast distances, couldn’t help but feel a sense of suffocation and tension. At the same time, they were secretly excited, hoping that Huangpu Yan would complete the incantation and unleash the dynasty’s hidden reserve.

In times of chaos, it was inevitable that one of the top-tier powers would be forced to reveal their hidden reserves. Of course, everyone hoped that it would be someone else’s dynasty, not their own.

“Boom!”

With a thunderous explosion, the Imperial City’s protective barrier completely shattered under the attack of the Vast Domain Faction!

At the same moment, Huangpu Yan completed his ancient chant!

Both sides had shown immense determination, and neither would back down, leading to this explosive result.

The seven Supremes of the Vast Domain and Huangpu Yan were momentarily stunned. Clearly, neither had expected the other to hold out until the end.

“Clang!”

An eerie sound echoed from the deepest recesses of the palace – a sound that sent shivers down everyone’s spine. It seemed as if something had emerged.

An ancient, terrifying aura began to spread, omnipresent and far-reaching, as if a terrifying being from a distant era had descended. Everyone’s hair stood on end and they held their breath.

Then something happened that stunned everyone!

A pair of giant chopsticks emerged from the depths of the palace.

Yes, you read that right – chopsticks!

They were crudely carved from a long, stone-like material, yet they were unmistakably recognizable as chopsticks.

In an instant, the chopsticks clamped down on the neck of one of the middle-aged Supremes from the Vast Domain, treating him like a tiny dried fish and dragged him back into the depths of the palace.

“How dare you!”

The middle-aged Supreme roared in terror and struggled with all his might, but to no avail. The chopsticks acted like chains of divine order, mercilessly dragging him into the depths of the palace!

Immediately after that, a blood-curdling scream erupted!

A huge cloud of blood erupted from the depths of the palace, and the scream was abruptly cut off.

Then came the sound of “crunch, crunch,” as if some monstrous creature was chewing.

What exactly was hidden in the depths of the Qian Dynasty Palace?

This question flashed through everyone’s mind.

If it was truly a monster, why did it use chopsticks to eat so elegantly? Shouldn’t it just devour its prey alive?

But if it wasn’t a monster, then why would it eat people?

The remaining six Supremes of the Vast Domain Faction turned pale, their bodies trembling as they sensed the danger. Without hesitation, they turned tail and fled!

When those stone chopsticks had reached out earlier, they hadn’t seemed very fast. Yet none of them had been able to react in time, and one of their companions had already been snatched away. This was clearly abnormal!

When something defied the norm, it was bound to be sinister!

They didn’t even think about fighting the monster. After all, this was the hidden reserve of the Qian Dynasty, a true top-tier power. Such an existence, which upheld the dynasty’s fortunes, was clearly not something ordinary Supremes could contend with!

Although the six Supremes of the Vast Domain had been scared off, the five Quasi-Supremes of the Qian Dynasty, the new Emperor, the nobles, and the ministers couldn’t bring themselves to rejoice. Instead, they were filled with deep anxiety.

“Although we have temporarily averted this disaster, our dynasty’s hidden reserves have been exposed. What should we do now?”

“No matter how powerful the reserve may be, once it is revealed, the dynasty faces the risk of annihilation. This is a lesson learned from ancient times.”

The sound of “crunch, crunch” continued for a moment before it stopped. It seemed that the monster deep inside the palace had finished eating. Then… the stone chopsticks appeared again!

However, their target wasn’t the six Supremes from the Vast Domain who had already fled. Instead, as if “eating hot pot,” they reached toward the Blood Sea and plucked one of the Blood Sea’s Supremes like a morsel, ignoring distance and barriers.

The entire Blood Sea Holy Land was stunned!

Even the Supreme-level experts from the various top-tier forces, who were observing the battle from afar, were left speechless. Huangpu Yan himself stood there frozen in disbelief.

What was going on?

Why was this happening?

In the eyes of the Qian Dynasty’s hidden reserve monster, was the entire world just a dish to be tasted? Could it really pick whichever Supreme it wanted to eat at will?

Just moments ago, the monster had devoured one of the Supremes from the Vast Domain Faction. Now, it had bypassed closer targets and snatched a Supreme from the Blood Sea. Was it simply changing flavors?

“Huangpu Yan! Our Blood Sea holds no grudge against your Qian Dynasty! Why did the reserve you unleashed target us? Are you trying to provoke a war between the Blood Sea and the Qian Dynasty?”

Trapped by the stone chopsticks, the Blood Sea Supreme was terrified and cursed Huangpu Yan furiously. He struggled with all his might, but just like the previous Supreme from the Vast Domain, his efforts were futile. The chopsticks dragged him into the depths of the palace!

Once again, the sound of “crunch, crunch” echoed, accompanied by blood-curdling screams and a burst of crimson mist. The screams abruptly ceased, leaving no doubt about the Supreme’s fate.

“Huangpu Yan! The Blood Sea will not rest until we have your head!”

“The Blood Sea Holy Land declares war on the Qian Dynasty!”

The two remaining Blood Sea Supremes were both enraged and terrified. Just moments earlier, the stone chopsticks had narrowly missed them, almost snatching them instead.

Huangpu Yan quickly explained, “I am not targeting the Blood Sea! I only know how to activate our dynasty’s hidden reserve – I have no idea what it is or how to control it. The fact that your Blood Sea Supreme was chosen simply means that your Blood Sea has bad luck.”

Without wasting another moment, Huangpu Yan turned to the five Dynasty Quasi-Supremes and hurriedly said, “The Dynasty is now in your hands. I’ll lay low for a while to avoid becoming the monster’s next target.”

With that, he vanished, hiding somewhere unknown.

The five Quasi-Supremes, the new Emperor, the nobles, and the ministers were all dumbfounded. What did this mean? Did it imply that even their own Supreme could be attacked by their dynasty’s hidden reserve?

The Supreme-level experts from the various top-tier forces, observing from afar, were all horrified. They angrily cursed Huangpu Yan as they scrambled to hide.

“Huangpu Yan, you wretched beast! What monstrous thing have you unleashed?”

“Huangpu Yan, you are a cancer on the world! If I ever see you, I’ll kill you without hesitation!”

The two remaining Blood Sea Supremes initially intended to storm the Qian Dynasty’s capital to seek revenge against Huangpu Yan. However, when they realized the gravity of the situation, they quickly went into hiding, too afraid to show their faces.

Xu Lian felt a chill run down his spine. Although he was only at the seventh level of Sagehood, his strength rivaled that of a second-tier Supreme. Would the monster target him as well?

After all, his divine body and soul would surely make for a delicious, crunchy snack – potentially piquing the monster’s interest!

Thinking this, he quietly slipped away from the palace. Fortunately, everyone’s attention was focused on the monster, so no one noticed him leave.

He crossed vast distances and returned to the “Main Sacred Land” of the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands-the thirty-third stage of the Heavenly Mystic Sacred Land. Much to his surprise, Time Supreme was nowhere to be found.

“We’re at the Divine Race Ancestral Grounds,” Bai Luohe’s distant voice came through the telepathic communication.

Xu Lian hastily left the thirty-third stage and made his way to the Ancestral Grounds of the Divine Race.

Sure enough, Time Supreme, Bai Luohe, He Changfeng, and Meng Hao were all hiding there. Obviously, they didn’t want to be the next target of the Qian Dynasty’s hidden reserve monster.
