Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife
Chapter 1439 - 1129 Cross-border Stone

The Shenyue Dynasty's army has already gathered, and once the Shenyue Dynasty's forces launch an attack, even if the ten great dynasties join together, they won't be able to stop them.

Thus, the Yangyan Emperor's plan is simple: quickly defeat the Daxia Dynasty, capture Lu Chen, and deliver him to the Shenyue Dynasty.

Only by doing this can they possibly avoid disaster.

Upon hearing the words of the Yangyan Emperor, an emperor in the corner, with an ice silkworm atop his head, said, "Yangyan is right. With the ten dynasties united, destroying the Daxia Dynasty is a piece of cake. Everyone, immediately deploy your forces against the Daxia Dynasty."

At this moment, the Mingxin Emperor spoke, "Deploying forces is inevitable; our Heavenly Bright Dynasty has already assembled the army and is on the way to the Daxia Dynasty."

"But before that, please take a look at the projection."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor Dharma Forms in the hall all turned to look at the projection simultaneously. One emperor asked puzzledly, "What else is there to see? Do you doubt he's not the ninth prince of the Shenyue Dynasty?"

The Mingxin Emperor crossed his arms over his chest, with one hand rubbing his chin, posing a thoughtful expression, "This blue light wall should be some kind of barrier, right?"

Upon hearing this, the emperors noticed a faint blue light wall between Lu Chen and the Silver Moon Quasi Emperor.

The Yangyan Emperor disdainfully said, "Isn't that just a barrier? What's the big deal? With our ten dynasties united, can't we break a mere barrier?"

The Mingxin Emperor replied, "That's true."

The Yangyan Emperor said, "Since the ninth prince of the Shenyue Dynasty already knew the Shenyue Dynasty had sent an army to attack him, it's natural for him to be prepared, setting up formations and barriers beforehand is not surprising."

"But as long as we unite, no matter how strong those formations and barriers are, they won't last long."

Adding together the ten great dynasties, the emperors numbered at least ten, and in some dynasties, there was more than one emperor.

If the emperors of the ten dynasties joined forces, it would be considered a Super Force in the universe, nothing too demanding against an empire on the edge of the cosmos.

The Yangyan Emperor continued, "All right, let's not waste any time, deploy the forces now, we'll meet at the Daxia Dynasty."

As the Yangyan Emperor's words faded, the Emperor Dharma Forms in the hall dispersed one after another.

Shortly afterwards, the ten great dynasties dispatched hundreds of Immortal Boats, dozens of Quasi-Emperors, and over a dozen Great Emperors, advancing mightily towards the Daxia Dynasty.

Although Lu Chen anticipated the deployment of the Yangyan Dynasty and other dynasties, he was not bothered by it.

As long as no Heavenly Emperor was present, the Immortal Spirit Umbrella suffices against all attacks.

Of course, Lu Chen still made some preparations, but these preparations were to counter the possible crisis of Heavenly Demons.

Now, within the Daxia Dynasty, the War Dragon Army was training with urgency, not only to fight the Shenyue Dynasty but also generally to look at top combat strength in confrontations between Super Forces.

Currently, most soldiers in the War Dragon Army have Cultivation States either in Divinity Transformation Realm or All Law Realm, with few in Returning Ruin Realm.

These soldiers might at most restrain the ordinary soldiers of the Shenyue Dynasty and deal with potential Heavenly Demons.

Lu Chen had a premonition that once the Shenyue Dynasty pushed its way to the Daxia Dynasty, countless lives would be lost along the way. The pain brought by wars would lead to more Heavenly Demons emerging in the universe.

By then, the most significant problem Daxia would face would be handling these Heavenly Demons rather than the Shenyue Dynasty's army being the main enemy of the War Dragon Army.

Inside a certain bedchamber.

Lu Chen's main body laid on Pei Shuhua's soft body, their bodies sunk into the recessed part of the Immortal Gold Bed. Fortunately, the bed board made of Xianjin had good elasticity, it didn't collapse even as the bed edges nearly touched the ground.

Lu Chen glanced at the system panel.

[Congratulations to the host for acquiring a spouse, reward: One Cross-border Stone.]

Upon seeing the reward, Lu Chen felt curious about the Cross-border Stone and its purpose.

With a mind's touch, he opened the system's introduction about the Cross-border Stone.

[Cross-border Stone: Can aid the host in traversing Boundary Sea, no grade.]

Seeing the description, Lu Chen was confused once again.

Boundary Sea?

What kind of place is that?

Although he had recovered many memories from his previous or pre-preceding life, he had never heard of a Boundary Sea.

Could the Boundary Sea be in the Outer Domain?

Lu Chen asked the system, "System, where is the Boundary Sea?"

The system replied, "Once the host breaks through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, the Boundary Sea shall be visible."

Lu Chen thought to himself, breaking through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm would allow seeing the Boundary Sea? Does this mean the Boundary Sea relates to cultivation?

Does the end of the path of cultivation hold a Boundary Sea? Can higher realms be reached only by crossing the Boundary Sea?

Or is this universe layered, revealing boundaries only to those who achieve higher cultivation states?

That's not right!

He was in the Heavenly Emperor Realm during the last era but had never seen any so-called Boundary Sea.

Just as Lu Chen was about to ask further, the system repeated, "Once the host breaks through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, the Boundary Sea shall be visible."

Lu Chen immediately realized that the system wasn't planning to reveal anything about the Boundary Sea.

Regardless, perhaps in this lifetime, he truly could unravel the mystery of his origins.

With the Boundary Sea mentioned—a term he hadn't heard in the last era—it proved he was much closer to the truth this time.

At least closer than he had been in the last era to the secrets of his past.

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Chen stopped pondering further, and he slightly lowered his head, glancing at the woman beneath him.

Then he rose, pulling Pei Shuhua out of the recessed bed area. With a wave of his hand, the entire bed instantly returned to its state before their dual cultivation.

Seeing Lu Chen stop, Pei Shuhua, regaining her clarity, finally let out a breath of relief. She thought Lu Chen would truly wait until she broke through before releasing her, but he was merely teasing.

Thankfully, thankfully.

Pei Shuhua turned her head, looking at Lu Chen with dreamy, enchanting eyes, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry to disappoint you; I couldn't break through..."

Lu Chen raised his hand and gently caressed her jade-like cheek, looking into her eyes, saying, "It's okay, we have plenty of time. I can continue helping you cultivate."

Pei Shuhua's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "Your Majesty, dual cultivation is no longer effective for me. I'll continue to stabilize my cultivation state for a while."

Pei Shuhua was genuinely afraid Lu Chen would pressure her again.

Lu Chen said, "No effect? Really? I see the Dao Charm emanating from you is quite intense."

Upon hearing this, Pei Shuhua realized that her Guardian Path had bound to Lu Chen to some extent, so during dual cultivation, the Dao Charm naturally emanated from their bodies.

The continuous release of Dao Charm clearly indicated her cultivation had indeed improved, though breaking through was never easy at the Great Emperor Realm.
