Master of the Demon Emperor

The Divine Shadow Legion marches!

Standing proudly in the sky, encircling the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili— a magnificent sight indeed.

Included were Demon Lord Qing Yan, Black Tiger Emperor, Elder Lord Qi Yang, Wu Qingyao, Sword Saint Xia Tianyi, Serpent King of the Eastern Marshlands, Demon Wolf Star, Li Zuxuan, Shangguan Wuji, Overlord Luo Fu, Wu You, Li Huahun, Ling Sang, Xiahou Jinxuan, Corpse Ghost King Xue Li, Piercing Arm Monkey, Empress of the Great Zhou, He Youming, Tang Qingtian.

Lu Ziwei and Xia Tianyi were instantly stunned.

Xia Tianyi immediately saw his own Divine Shadow, identical in form to himself.

"This is the Divine Shadow Legion?"

Xia Tianyi slightly furrowed his brow, a glint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

He scanned the area but could not discern the cultivations of the shadows.

Lu Ziwei also furrowed his brow, completely puzzled about the origin of these shadows.

Not only them, but Demon Lord Qing Yan, Li Zuxuan, Li Mengde, Liu Boya, Lang Huaxin, and everyone else in Chang An also turned their attention to the Divine Shadow Legion.

"Is that me?"

Li Huahun stared at his own Divine Shadow, blinked, and asked.

He suddenly turned around and asked Su Yie, "Where is your Divine Shadow?"

With that question, Su Yie's face paled, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Oh no!

Where is my Divine Shadow?

Just as this thought emerged, a Divine Shadow suddenly appeared from beneath the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili. It was his Divine Shadow, wielding the Heartbreak Sword and Zhou Wu Sword, soaring upward, joining the others in encircling the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili.

Su Yie breathed a sigh of relief, almost exposing himself.

"You are really weak, your Divine Shadow can't even keep up with the legion's rhythm,"

Li Huahun's comment caused Su Yie distress, and he really wanted to retort but dared not to, fearing he might make more mistakes with more words.

"What is that?"

Li Mengde's eyes widened in astonishment as he asked while Liu Boya and the Imperial Guards beside him were equally dumbfounded.

Li Zuxuan, suppressing his excitement, said, "That is the legion of an Immortal God!"

At that moment, he inexplicably felt a sense of honor, as he was also a member of Emperor Su's Sect!

Emperor Su had sent the Divine Shadow Legion to help him!

Indeed, as Demon Wolf Star had said, the Divine Shadow Legion had replicated the shadow of every member of Emperor Su's Sect, and he saw his own Divine Shadow.

The legion of an Immortal God?

Li Mengde and Liu Boya were frightened, their breathing becoming rapid.

The Malevolent Matriarch of Baili surveyed the Divine Shadow Legion and asked, "What are you supposed to be?"

Unfortunately, the Divine Shadow Legion did not answer her.

Su Yie's eyes narrowed, and the twenty Divine Shadows moved in unison.

Overlord Luo Fu charged at the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili first, unleashing a punch that directly shattered half of her soul shadow with terrifying demonic power.

After all, he was the one who had defeated Xia Tianyi, one of the Five Emperors of the Demon Race!

The Divine Shadow of He Youming took on the form of a middle-aged man, standing tall with his hands spread, and cast multiple shadows of magic artifacts that erupted with bright light, enveloping the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili.

The Piercing Arm Monkey, lifting a giant club, fiercely smashed down.

Boom!

The soul shadow of the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili was split in two, and even the ruins of Chang An were fractured by the impact, creating a ravine as billowing dust spread like massive waves, with cultivators in the sky swept away like falling leaves.

With one smash, the mountains and rivers were inverted!

Even Xia Tianyi, Lu Ziwei, and Demon Lord Qing Yan were left with their eyes twitching.

What kind of power was that?

"Is that guy the Piercing Arm Monkey?"

Li Huahun muttered, recognizing it, as the Divine Shadow of the Piercing Arm Monkey looked very much like a humanoid monkey—easy to distinguish since there was only one monkey in Emperor Su's Sect.

Not just him, the other members of Emperor Su's Sect present also recognized it.

Is that wild monkey really that strong?

"Poor Black Tiger Emperor."

Demon Lord Qing Yan sighed softly, subconsciously closing his eyes. It was bad luck the Black Tiger Emperor was still bullying the Piercing Arm Monkey, and Tang Qingtian had joined him in jeering at the monkey.

The distant crowd and the souls in the air also started to stir.

"Such terrifying power!"

"We're saved!"

"What is that shadow? It's terrifyingly powerful! Could it be a Divine Weapon?"

"They emerged from the ground, surely they are the Divine Weapons sent by Mother Earth to save us!"

"So powerful..."

Everyone looked towards the battlefield where, under the relentless bombardment of the Divine Shadow Legion, the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili had no strength to retaliate and quickly disintegrated into smoke.

Powerful!

Even Lu Ziwei's eyes widened as he fixated on one of the Divine Shadows.

Empress of the Great Zhou!

"How is that possible... that's Her Majesty's shadow..."

Lu Ziwei's throat moved, and all the swords behind him trembled.

He knew how terrifying the Empress of the Great Zhou was, so why would her shadow appear here?

"Aaaahhhhh—"

The Malevolent Matriarch's piercing scream made everyone's eardrums ache.

Numerous blood mists floated within Chang An, lingering spirits everywhere.

Twenty Divine Shadows stood proudly in the air, and Xia Tianyi's Sword Qi even broke through the thunderclouds. Sunlight spilled down upon them, giving their Divine Shadows an additional layer of Divine Light, making everyone feel an indescribable aura.

Looking down on the world!

With me, invincible!

Even Su Yie felt his heartbeat quicken as he noticed that both the Empress of the Great Zhou and Tang Qingtian also seemed very strong.

However, the power of the Piercing Arm Monkey was too dominant, preventing the other Divine Shadows from displaying more of their capabilities.

But Su Yie had a feeling that the Empress of the Great Zhou might be the strongest presence within the Divine Shadow Legion.

Meanwhile, Li Zuxuan was excitedly shouting within Emperor Su's Sect.

Li Zuxuan: The Divine Shadow Legion! The Divine Shadow Legion has descended! So powerful! The Malevolent Matriarch was smashed by the Piercing Arm Monkey!

Black Tiger Emperor: What the heck? Piercing Arm Monkey? That wild monkey?

Tang Qingtian: Strong? Is he stronger than me?

Piercing Arm Monkey: You two trash wait, once I help Wuu You finish off the enemies, I'll head to the Sword Sect first, then go find the black cat!

Demon Wolf Star: Black cat? Hahahaha!

Shangguan Wuji: Yo! Is this wild monkey so fearsome?

Demon Lord Qing Yan: Inside Emperor Su's Sect, probably ranks among the top three.

Black Tiger Emperor: Brother Monkey, I was wrong!

Su Yie didn't notice the chat within Emperor Su's Sect; he was focused on that blood mist, fearing that the Malevolent Matriarch might resurrect again.

Li Huahun shook his head and said, "Killing her, too difficult."

Difficult?

Members of the Su Imperial Clan together can't kill the Malevolent Matriarch?

Su Yie frowned, only to hear Li Huahun continue, "This creature is now in a vengeful spirit state, probably attached to some Magic Artifact. As long as the artifact remains unbroken, she will not die."

Magic Artifact?

Su Yie raised an eyebrow. How sinister must the Magic Artifact possessed by the Malevolent Matriarch be?

At that moment, the blood mist suddenly coalesced into numerous blood-colored figures, all in human form wearing Blood-colored Armor, resembling a Blood-colored Ghost Army, spread out in every corner of Chang An, eerily terrifying.

At a glance, there were at least tens of thousands.

"I will kill you all... You all must die! Become my malevolent soldiers!"

The Malevolent Matriarch's voice followed, echoing through heaven and earth.

It chilled the hearts of everyone both inside and outside of Chang An, and even cities near Chang An could hear it.

As her voice fell, tens of thousands of malevolent soldiers charged at the Divine Shadow Legion.

The fierce army of the Sacred Body of Qiling battled against Emperor Su's Sect's Divine Shadow Legion!

"Let's back off first!"

Xia Tianyi said to Lu Ziwei, eager to see just how strong the other members of Emperor Su's Sect were.

According to Emperor Su, the Divine Shadows possess the full strength of the original!
