Chapter 652: Chapter 373: Celestial Soldiers Launch a Campaign, Foiling the Celestial Eye People’s Plan (3)
He exhaled lightly, unable to hide the reluctance in his eyes, but his tone was very resolute:
"Order, everyone must evacuate this realm."
With the command issued, the players of the Celestial Eye People within the realm quickly left, returning to the battleships outside the realm.
They were not like Su Yu, who had initially entered without preparation. These Celestial Eye People were protected by the Da Luo power of the treasure held by the Profound Immortal Yu Yue, unlike him who was trapped without the ability to move.
After one incense stick’s time, three Celestial Eye People battleships slowly departed the world, disappearing into the void.
Throughout the entire process, no one was aware of Su Yu’s existence, although they guessed the exposure was due to the Celestial Court patrol team that appeared here months earlier. What puzzled them was how the Celestial Soldiers, who clearly died in this realm, could still be alive.
Even if a True Immortal dies within this realm, revival would be restricted within the remnants of the Golden Immortal and Top-grade Spiritual Treasure until complete death.
Once the Celestial Eye People departed, the Guardian Envoy ordered an attack.
The three Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Formations laid down by every hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers first showcased their power. Thirty thousand Celestial Soldiers channeled their mana into the formation, converging into hundreds of Nine Heavens Thunder Pillars with power comparable to a Profound Immortal, striking across thousands of kilometers into that dark world.
The thunder pillars were like clay oxen entering the sea, without a ripple.
But after thousands of Nine Heavens Thunder Pillars were struck down one after another, the dark world underwent changes, with its crystalline walls appearing, violently trembling, ripples spreading like a piece of fat shaking, while simultaneously erupting a violent Golden Immortal’s will, forming a tide of terrifying will capable of instantly killing an ordinary True Immortal, sweeping towards all directions.
However, just as this tide of will exploded, a figure appeared at the edge of that world, pointing at the crystalline wall of the dark world:
"Freeze!"
An invisible wave of law swept across, causing the tide of will to directly collapse, the remnant waves sweeping across the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Demon-Confining Formation, causing the formation to violently shake, with the Celestial Soldiers inside toppling over.
The Guardian Envoy intervened, directly suppressing the remnant soul of the Eastern King.
Then, with a command from the Commander, the Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Formation continued to condense the Nine Heavens Thunder Pillars for bombardment.
The dark world continued to erupt waves of will, but each time was blocked by the Guardian Envoy.
By continuously wearing it down, after four whole days, Su Yu astonishingly discovered that the size of the dark world had shrunk noticeably.
"So that’s the function of the Celestial Soldiers."
Thirty thousand Celestial Soldiers laid out the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Demon-Confining Formation, capable even of blocking the power of a Golden Immortal.
Even an incomplete Golden Immortal is a Golden Immortal, of a different concept compared to a Profound Immortal, capable of easily killing a Profound Immortal, yet blocked by the formation, over a thousand waves blocked over several days, that’s quite exaggerated.
With these formations continuously consuming, the Guardian Envoy saved an unknown amount of mana.
This wear-down lasted for half a year, until the dark world was worn from an initial diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers down to less than one hundred kilometers.
At this point, the Guardian Envoy gestured to stop the attack, crossing his hands behind his back and stepping directly into the dark world, disappearing.
"Boom!"
The world’s crystalline walls suddenly shook, expanding outwards one circle, then quickly contracting.
In less than a second, it pulsated once again, with deep rumbling sounds emanating from within, containing unimaginable power, causing every Celestial Soldier’s heart to tremble in resonance, their spirits swaying.
However, as time went by, the drum sound grew weaker and weaker, indicating that the Guardian Envoy had successfully suppressed the remnant soul of the Eastern King.
Then, the dark world, which hadn’t contracted for a long time, began to shrink inward again, until it was reduced to a small clump in the hand of the Guardian Envoy, whose figure appeared.
"It’s solved!"
The Guardian Envoy stepped into the Celestial Punishment Immortal Battleship, sitting down on the throne looking pleased.
He glanced at everyone, saying with a smile:
"The remaining threats of the Wuding Immortal Dynasty have been eliminated, prepare to withdraw troops."
Several camp commanders immediately responded, going out to gather their forces.
At this time, he looked at Su Yu, saying:
"You now have three choices: return to Celestial Pillar Mountain, granting you three major merits, or wait for me to refine this remnant soul and give you the weapon embryo that is essentially a Top-grade Spiritual Treasure, or wait for me to refine the remnant soul and grant you a golden attribute."
Su Yu immediately replied without hesitation:
"I want the golden attribute!"
What a joke, it’s gold attribute, the essential item needed for promotion to Golden Immortal.
"A wise choice."
The Guardian Envoy nodded, saying:
"Come back to find me after two years."
"Additionally, there’s something you need to know. You are supposed to be promoted this time because of your merits, but you cannot be promoted as your ten-year term has not reached its full term. Wait for your ten-year term to end and your cultivation to break through, then I will give you a grand gift."
Su Yu bowed again:
"Thank you for your great kindness, sir."
"It is what you deserve."
At this, this operation came to an end.
They returned to Celestial Pillar Mountain with the fleet, then returned to the Wuding outpost.
On the way, Duan Mo Ye said with a smile:
"Mr. Su, thanks to you, my brother, I got promoted this time."
"Hmm?"
"To where? Promoted to watch post leader?"
"No, Commander Li transferred me back to Celestial Pillar Mountain, to serve as a leader of a hundred in the seventh camp."
"Guo Yun was also transferred back, serving as vice-leader of a hundred."
"Congratulations then!"
"Mutually happy, mutually happy."
The two were very cheerful, looking satisfied.
By rank, a leader of a hundred is equivalent to a watch post leader, but the position is different.
A watch post leader is merely a local stationed military, commanding around 200 soldiers, whereas a leader of a hundred is a regular Celestial Soldier unit, commanding between 200-500 soldiers, having different authority and promotion potential.
Importantly, acting alongside the Guardian Envoy this time is tantamount to having registered above, a leader of a hundred is not the limit.
