its energy after its long voyage, because it hadn't fought in a while and had nowhere to recharge.This means that the Dragon Boat cannot be summoned now.And at present, the domain cards are flourishin...Lu Er thought for a moment, then strode from the platform on his shoulder and entered the city of Suo Fang.

Although the city walls were under attack, the internal streets were not completely chaotic. The shock absorbers on the hinges were sufficient to allow for normal passage.

Accompanying them, there was also a squad of [Qióngqí] transporting the remains of enemy soldiers.

Lu Er couldn't help but steal a few glances.

Carousel Knight.

Visually, the unseen headless eerie knight and the twisted wooden horse are actually quite terrifying.

The destroyed, gigantic "mount" was clearly stolen from the human era, but its assault power was astonishing.

It's definitely not comparable to the sand domain mecha.

Through the Nand Tian Gate, card material analysis was conducted by research institutions in Bai Yu Jing.

The enemy is enslaving humans mentally from the rear, with monsters built from special alien trees they have cultivated.

I don't know, what's the situation there

........

Far beyond that door.

The eunuch hurried through the dark corridors of the palace.

It's truly a walking, rustling sound because beneath their robes, it's patch after patch of beard. It moves and sways with each step.

Officials burst into the brightly lit main hall of Luoyang Palace.

The emperor was about to hold the morning court.

Chains, dreadful and rust-eaten, bound to a throne of decay, kept an object captive.

The chains were long, linking the surrounding dragon columns in a staggered pattern.

All officials dared not look at it, because it was called "The Tang Emperor"!

And beside it, another similarly locked figure, a human-shaped object, called "Wu Hou".

The terrifying and eerie sight at Luoyang Palace did not draw much attention from the officials because...the officials themselves were also abnormal.

If Di Gong hadn't been persecuted to death that year, he might have discovered the truth.

The true human body and spirit have long been destroyed and distorted. What we see before us is merely a fabrication by the spiritual species that has stolen human history and civilization, enslaving human minds and imagining this so-called "Tang Dynasty" nation.

Due to early setbacks, the rulers decided to retrace humanity's ancient development, aiming to control humans through human means.

Create a "Tang Dynasty" and "Foreign Countries" that rival Baiyu City, to the point where on Peach Blossom Island, such a bizarre scene is set up, a terrifying nation existing at the intersection of reality and spirit.

........

"Your Majesty, the unrest at the border has been confirmed to be orchestrated by Gu Xianlu. The Tianhai Guard's vanguard, [Baimuxi], is likely outmatched alone." An official stated in a low, grave voice.

“Lu Cheng.” The chains rattled, the object trembling and emitting a horrifying sound: “The hero who once led us to overthrow the divine rule, how has he come to this”

"Report to Wuhou, after years of war, his mind has long been influenced by evil. Now he has fallen into a demon's grasp, viewing us as enemies and wanting to destroy the Tang Dynasty to establish a realm of humans and immortals."

"Well then... how is the battle going for the First Army of a Hundred Eyes"

The martial artist hesitated.

"Um... The power of the ancient immortals is extremely powerful, with thousands of war puppets under their command.... The landing operation failed due to Baimü's defeat, and the mortal army was no match for the puppet legions. Deploying 100,000 vanguard troops only occupied 1.4% of the surface..."

Upon hearing this, all officials were astonished.

You know, the Hundred Eyes is equipped with advanced troops.

The scribes (plagiarists and parasites) from the novel "Journey to the West," Chapter 28, transplanted into the modern world's "Blackwood Forest" have, over centuries, produced batches of "blackwood" which are used to craft heavy cavalry and catapults.

Unexpectedly, the first battle ended in a crushing defeat...

Furthermore, all officials know that mysterious forces have probably infiltrated and corrupted the famous novel "Journey to the West".

It looks like an ancient immortal, very frightening.

During the chaos of the imperial court, the imprisoned "Empress Wu" sighed inwardly.

She is barely human in appearance anymore.

In his later years, Di Renjie caught a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

In human history, the background of "Wu Zetian" may have been stolen by an unknown monster.

At that time, she wanted to tell the world something, but because of the loss of words, it led to the appearance of the wordless stone tablet.

And this queen, whose background was marred by multiple layers of corruption and parasitism, was used as the surface ruler of the "Second Saint," one of the rulers of the spiritual kingdom.

It fused the spirit of swordsman "Ono-Neko" with the twisted background of "Wu Hou"...

This is the current situation, the opponent playing cards with Lu Cheng on the table, "The True Face" of the "Wu Hou" in "Two Saints of the Tang Dynasty".

Why did the Empress Dowager sigh

According to historical records, Lu Cheng died in battle during the Jin Dynasty and was resurrected in the early Tang Dynasty.

The Empress Dowager knew that he had once helped her get on the right track.

That brilliant master craftsman, the incomparably powerful ancient immortal, once led her path.

But... the war was victorious. Now, peace reigns and the country is prosperous. Yet, the heroes have gone astray. Lu Cheng believes that the war has not ended. Millennia of warfare have driven the heroes into a state of madness where they can no longer distinguish friend from foe.

... to the point where it became the greatest threat to the Tang Dynasty.

He seized the neighboring nation of Great Eater, along with a sea monster, and launched an unjust war....

The problem is, the stubborn old immortal believes he's always right!

He will come from the edges of the world, slaughtering his way through Xuanwu Gate and massacring all 1.2 billion inhabitants of the Tang Dynasty!!!

She glanced at the meatball beside her. Perhaps her husband, Longdi, didn't have much affection for Lu Cheng. She hadn't even seen her husband's true form.

The Dragon Emperor had never truly stepped down from the throne. All matters, big and small, were always handled by her.

I took a deep breath.

From an emotional standpoint, Lu Cheng is his own mentor.

We absolutely cannot let our teacher fall into despair and continue to suffer....

Once lost in confusion, she was led by her mentor to surpass herself.

Now it is my turn to correct my master. Only by comprehensively and thoroughly defeating the insane Lu Cheng can we suppress the uncontrolled power of the ancient immortal, ensuring the peace and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

I believe this is what our mentor hoped to see as well.

She stood up, the chains rattling.

On the faraway gambling table, Lu Cheng was organizing his cards. An unsuspecting opponent walked out of the shadows, she carried the shackles on her body and slowly sat across from him......

in the form of demons.
