So.

Once the command was delivered, Zhongshan Chong immediately went down to make arrangements.

Shen Changqing still stood atop the city wall, looking at the vast firmament ahead, no longer making any move.

Qingyu City has been conquered.

Now, it's about consolidating the defensive forces within the city to prevent the White Jade Sect from retaking it.

If Qingyu City is taken back by the opponent, the previous siege will have been in vain, and all the battle merit gained from the siege would have to be given up.

The battle merit for capturing a city is substantial.

He has no intention of giving it back.

In fact.

After capturing Qingyu City, holding the city and waiting for the outcome of the battle between the two sects is the safest approach.

But by doing so, the amount of battle merit obtained would be limited.

For Shen Changqing.

Battle merit is extremely important.

Holding the city defensively, only gaining merit from Qingyu City alone, does not meet his expectations.

About half an hour passed.

In Qingyu City, the City Protection Formation rose once again.

Zhongshan Chong approached respectfully, saying, "Senior Brother Qiu, we have fully taken over Qingyu City. The City Protection Formation is strong; even a seventh level Divine Realm would need some time to break through."

If a powerhouse from the White Jade Sect truly attacks, the disciples stationed at Qingyu City can send word for support, bringing strong reinforcements from our sect."

Around Qingyu City.

This area also belongs to the territory of the White Jade Sect.

Meanwhile.

As they attacked Qingyu City, other powers from the Candle Sect were also attacking other cities of the White Jade Sect.

By now.

Quite a few cities have been captured.

So if Qingyu City were truly attacked, the nearby Candle Sect powerhouses wouldn't sit idly by.

"Alright."

Shen Changqing nodded, then took out the Pursuit Shuttle once more.

"Now that Qingyu City is secure, aside from the disciples guarding the city, the rest will follow me to the next city!"

"Yes!"

——

As the Candle Sect disciples were seizing the territory of the White Jade Sect, sparking conflict.

Within the White Jade Sect.

Currently.

A terrifying wave was erupting, shattering the void for millions of miles, as if signaling the end of days, causing many cultivators nearby to look towards the firmament, eyes filled with fear.

Divine Kings clashing.

Even the aftermath is something that ordinary Divine Realm cultivators cannot withstand.

If anyone below the Divine Realm gets swept in, it's certain death.

"Zhongshan Mushi, do you dare to act recklessly in my White Jade Sect, laughable!"

An angry voice echoed through the heavens, and then a giant Zhu Yan, spanning thousands of feet, appeared, with a golden Divine Kingdom crushing down from the void like a vast world.

Seeing the giant Zhu Yan, many cultivators' expressions changed once again.

"A thousand-foot Zhu Yan, that's the Duankong Divine King of the White Jade Clan!"

"Such terrifying aura, making me feel as if I am as insignificant as an ant."

"Zhongshan Mushi... that's the Mi Shui Divine King of the Zhongshan Clan!"

Divine Sense communication.

Cultivators not belonging to the White Jade Clan silently sensed the destructive waves, internally shocked.

Be it Duankong Divine King or Mi Shui Divine King, both have immense fame.

God Realm's four levels.

Even those newly entering the Heaven and Earth Divine King Realm are revered by Myriad Clans cultivators.

To enter the Sun and Moon Realm.

They are powerful Divine Kings.

Moreover.

These two Divine Kings, are not mere Moon Divine Kings, they have long been immersed in this realm for countless years.

In terms of strength.

Among the Heavens Myriad Clans, in the Sun and Moon Realm, there are not many Divine Kings who can match them.

The conflict between such powerhouses, one can imagine the magnitude of the shockwave.

Some powerhouses wished to spectate.

But the destructive wave made them hesitate.

Meanwhile.

As the golden Divine Kingdom crushed down, a red serpentine-like body coiled in the void, and the colossal heavens seemed to plunge into endless darkness.

At that moment.

Many distant cultivators felt an illusion of their Divine Soul being tugged by the dark, causing their expressions to change drastically and forcing them to retreat further.

"Abyss of Dark!"

"Retreat quickly——"

The Zhongshan Clan's Innate Divine Ability is renowned.

If it's an ordinary Divine Realm performing it, unless they look directly, the Abyss of Dark won't affect them.

But the problem is.

The one currently performing Abyss of Dark is a Moon Divine King.

If a Divine Realm performs it, it's just part of the Divine King-level Innate Divine Ability's power; when a Moon Divine King uses it, it's the true Abyss of Dark.

Even without direct eye contact.

Being within the Abyss of Dark's range might lead to complete devouring.

"Abyss of Dark!"

"I shall see if your Zhongshan Clan's Abyss of Dark is truly as feared as they say!"

A cold voice echoed.

An immense force of slaughter emerged within the words, as if ancient battle killings existed for countless epochs, drawn by some subtle force.

Immediately.

Evile Qi soared.

A long blade, fully coagulated from the force of slaughter, erupted within the darkness, unleashing unparalleled sharpness.

Darkness trembled.

Like a giant abyss beast, wanting to swallow the opponent whole.

Yet.

The overwhelming slaughter force was not easily devoured.

After a long time.

The long blade struck down.

Darkness split like a curtain being torn apart.

Yet.

Before the darkness completely shattered.

The Candle Shadow Body coiled in the void, the Vast Divine Kingdom had already descended.

Sun and Moon Divine Kingdom.

Had arrived!

In response.

Duankong Divine King showed no fear, as a thousand-foot Zhu Yan stood in the void, lifting its own Sun and Moon Divine Kingdom, directly striking against the descending Divine Kingdom.
