My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Shen Yao Empire, Duke Yaoguang's Territory.

As a leading figure among the young generation of Shen Yao, Duke Yaoguang may not be as dazzling as the Master of Taixuan Flowing Arrow, who ascended the Saint Realm and has the record of annihilating the Saint Realm, but he is also rapidly advancing at his own pace.

"This retreat has yielded great results; I've taken a big step forward on the Path to Ascension, so now I'm not far from ascension."

The Saint Realm is within reach!

Duke Yaoguang smiled.

During these times of Great Catastrophe, despite being a peak strongman of the Law Realm, he doesn't have absolute confidence to guard his territory or survive on the battlefield.

After all, the Great Monster Terror of the Saint Realm could arrive at any time; if a Saint Realm strikes a cross-domain blow, even if he doesn't die, he would be seriously injured.

Even without the arrival of Saint Realm Monster Monarchs, encountering several or more Law Realm Dukes on the battlefield poses a risk of death for a strong person like him.

Once he falls...

Revival is possible, but during such times as the Great Catastrophe, there's not much time; if he or other generals of the territory fall, the defensive power of the territory will be insufficient, and thus his Bright City, a Ninth-Level Great Territory, could collapse at any time.

If the territory collapses, his revival measures would be crushed as well.

Under the Great Catastrophe, fallen strong individuals of the Law Realm and obliterated eighth and ninth-level territories are numerous.

Duke Yaoguang naturally feels a sense of crisis.

"However, because the Great Catastrophe has descended, accompanied by countless opportunities and the pressure of crises, I am able to advance so rapidly. Otherwise, just to reach this state, it would have taken at least a few more years."

"Not to mention, I have gained great fortunes in the Creation Land, and am poised to ascend with a high-order path, promising future!"

Duke Yaoguang emerged from his retreat spot, feeling joyful and smiling.

However,

just as he stepped out of the epic cultivation building's gates, he saw his minister anxiously waiting outside.

"What happened?"

Duke Yaoguang restrained his smile, "Did something happen to the Empire?"

The minister replied, "The Empire is fine; it's neighboring Tai Xuan Alliance that has had incidents. Many places in the Tai Xuan Alliance have erupted into holy wars, and reliable information states that over ten beings of Great Monster Terror have descended upon the Ten Directions Island Domain, targeting Tianyuan City, even including Monster Monarchs, and... legendary True King Realm beings!"

"Hiss—"

Duke Yaoguang gasped.

He just thought that as long as he could ascend, he could ensure his home would not be in danger of collapse.

Yet unexpectedly, Tianyuan City immediately faced a catastrophe of extinction beyond his previous imagination!

Although this is Tianyuan City's crisis, Tai Xuan Alliance's difficulty, this time the disaster is too terrifying, even their Shen Yao Empire would be affected.

Indeed, something big has occurred.

Duke Yaoguang couldn't help but feel a sense of shared fate.

After all, Tianyuan City is much stronger than their Bright City!

"What's the situation in Tianyuan City right now... or rather, in Tai Xuan Alliance? Even if the Supreme Mysterious National Pillar takes action, it can't block so many beings of Great Monster Terror, let alone several Monster Monarchs."

"If the news of True King Realm's descent is true, there's no way to fight."

Tai Xuan cannot fight, and Shen Yao is the same.

Only capable of exchanging some opportunities with space for counter-attacks.

Monster Monarchs, Great Lords, True Kings, after all, cannot infinitely penetrate the Land of Living Beings. Especially the stronger Great Lords and True Kings.

The Monarchs and Great Lords from different overlord powers also have their own interests.

Once they have destroyed Tianyuan City and penetrated the Taixuan Territory, naturally, for various reasons, they will scatter to seek their own benefits, which will be the opportunity for Tai Xuan Alliance to counter-attack.

But such opportunities come at a huge cost.

Duke Yaoguang knows these strategic measures are necessary choices at crucial times.

Yet the next moment he heard...

"The battlefield in Tianyuan City is still in a deadlock; despite the very critical situation, it seems like they can barely hold off. The news from the Empire suggests that as long as Tianyuan City can hold for a while, until those beings of Great Monster Terror are repelled, it could achieve a great victory."

"Now, the hope is also that Tianyuan City can hold."

Duke Yaoguang: "???"

What, can they still hold?

Oh, the Stone Heart Saint King and other legends have taken action.

His feelings are complicated, hard to describe.

And also somewhat admiring.

"No wonder it's the Lord of Tianyuan City!"

"Back then, the Stone Heart Saint King very much valued the Lord of Tianyuan City; I didn't expect him to personally intervene this time."

Now, on the battlefield of Tianyuan City, the main force is actually the legends who came to help.

Even the Ten-winged Angel King stationed in Tianyuan City is rumored to only be worshipped by Tianyuan City while residing there.

At first glance, it seems the legends are MVPs, and the Lord of Tianyuan City is merely a bed-laying dog, but...

"To get those legends to assist, that's a skill; many want to make legendary lives notice them but can't."

"This duke... I'm inferior to him."

"However..."

"Even with these legends assisting, is the situation in Tianyuan City still very critical?"

He asked.

The minister stated, "Indeed, that's the case. It is said that Tianyuan City initially managed to stabilize the situation, even defeated Saint Realm Monster Terror, but... just a quarter-hour ago, news arrived that the King of Dusk had ascended to True King Realm and descended, then Tianyuan City's situation..."

The minister shook his head.

He was also anxiously awaiting the outcome.

Their Shen Yao territory, of course, had informers, spies, and legitimate surface businesses in Tianyuan City; many channels of information.
