Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife
Chapter 1440 - 1130: What Kind of Barrier is This?

Pei Shuhua saw that Lu Chen had already seen through her lies, and her cheeks, already painted in rosy blush, turned even redder, as if one touch could squeeze out water.

Originally dignified and noble, Pei Shuhua now brimmed with the charm of a young wife.

Seeing Pei Shuhua in this state, Lu Chen's heart stirred, and he had some thoughts.

However, Lu Chen didn't pounce on her, knowing that Pei Shuhua wasn't as resilient as Empress Tianhong and Chu Yunzhi. He gently pinched Pei Shuhua's delicate nose and smiled.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. You should rest for a while now."

Recognizing Lu Chen's act of mercy, Pei Shuhua quickly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen suddenly chuckled, "Still calling me Your Majesty?"

Pei Shuhua's mind froze slightly; Lu Chen was originally the emperor of the Daxia Dynasty, so even as his woman, calling him Your Majesty didn't seem wrong.

Yet...

She suddenly recalled during their Dual Cultivation sessions, Lu Chen insisting she called him darling and good brother, and similar terms.

Pei Shuhua suppressed her thoughts about past events, quietly murmuring, "Dar... darling..."

Lu Chen leaned in, gave Pei Shuhua's lips a heavy kiss, then said, "That's more like it."

"Alright, I have things to do, I'll go now. This will be your palace in Tianchen World from now on. If you don't wish to stay here, you may return to the Chiyue Dynasty's former main star. When you miss me, just contact me through the wooden puppet I gave you."

Upon hearing this, the newly-wed young woman's face blushed deep red again, instantly understanding what Lu Chen meant by "missing" him, after their time cultivating together.

Without further teasing her, Lu Chen's figure vanished from the room, leaving Pei Shuhua feeling a sudden emptiness, somewhat unaccustomed.

She lifted her lovely head, glancing around the palace, recalling the scenes of their Dual Cultivation repeatedly in her mind.

Unknowingly, the corner of Pei Shuhua's mouth slightly lifted into a happy smile, one she hadn't noticed herself.

...

The speed of the Ten Great Dynasties was extremely fast, since they originally were within the same Super Star Domain Group as the Daxia Dynasty, not really too far away.

Additionally, in order to annihilate the Daxia Dynasty before the Shenyue Dynasty's army arrived, the forces of the Ten Great Dynasties were advancing towards Daxia Dynasty at maximum speed.

Now, outside the Fengyang Star Domain, the skies were densely packed with Immortal Boats from various dynasties.

In contrast, on Daxia Dynasty's side of the Fengyang Star Domain, there were only a sparse dozen or so Starships.

At this time, all the emperors of the Ten Great Dynasties had gathered outside the Fengyang Star Domain. The Ice Silkworm Emperor arrived last, seeing the other emperors watching amid the void without action, he came over and asked, "What's going on, why haven't you started the attack?"

The Yangyan Emperor didn't answer the Ice Silkworm Emperor's question, but glanced at those dozen Starships within the Fengyang Star Domain, "These Immortal Boats of the Daxia Dynasty are rather special, they don't rely on Spiritual Power for activation."

Emperor Poshan said, "Once we annihilate the Daxia Dynasty, the blueprints for these Immortal Boats will naturally fall into our hands, and then we too can manufacture them in large quantities."

Listening to the two's conversation, the Ice Silkworm Emperor impatiently said, "Then why don't you all hurry up and take action?"

The Mingxin Emperor stated, "Strange, why does the opponent seem completely unprepared?"

Although Daxia Dynasty was on the fringes of the universe, it was still an empire. How could an empire have only a dozen Immortal Boats?

With the Ten Great Dynasties pressuring the borders, even emperors had arrived, yet the Daxia Dynasty showed no defenses at all, clearly not taking the Ten Great Dynasties seriously.

The Ice Silkworm Emperor said, "Forget it, let's break this barrier first."

As he spoke, the Ice Silkworm Emperor's aura surged. In the next moment, a huge Ice Silkworm Law Manifestation appeared in the void.

The Ice Silkworm's glistening transparent wings fluttered slightly, countless Ice Meteors spawned in the void, following which these Ice Meteors madly bombarded the blue barrier.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the area being struck by Ice Meteors, eager to assess the strength of the barrier.

An hour passed quickly, and under the Ice Silkworm Emperor's Law Manifestation's bombardment, the blue barrier remained unmoved, without even the slightest unsealing.

The Ice Silkworm Emperor then withdrew his hand, frowning at the blue barrier ahead, knowing he had used eighty percent of his power.

Using eighty percent of his power and not even causing a crack; this Formation was likely quite extraordinary.

At this moment, the Yangyan Emperor said, "That person is, after all, Prince Lu Chen of the Shenyue Dynasty, arranging a High Tier Formation is not unusual. Let's act together."

After hearing the Yangyan Emperor's words, the emperors beside him hesitated no longer, each revealing their Law Manifestations and pouring all their Spiritual Power into Yangyan Emperor's Law Manifestation.

The Yangyan Emperor shouted, "Sunset Break!!!"

In an instant, a sunset stretched one light-year behind the Yangyan Emperor's Law Manifestation, followed by a pillar of fire-red light racing towards the blue barrier outside the Fengyang Star Domain.

As the fire-red beam was about to collide with the blue barrier, it instantly transformed into a Phoenix engulfed in blazing flames, with its sharp beak striking fiercely against the protective barrier created by the Immortal Spirit Umbrella.

However, everyone quickly realized the barrier was still intact. The Yangyan Emperor immediately urged the emperors behind him, "Increase your strength!"

Immediately, the emperors' auras surged again, and to their utmost limit, they infused Spiritual Power into Yangyan Emperor, making the Phoenix striking the blue barrier grow even larger.

Thus, a month passed...

In the cosmos, battles between emperors typically last months, years, or even decades.

So one month was nothing.

But seeing no cracks on the blue barrier, the emperors present were a bit anxious.

They were pressed for time; if they didn't annihilate the Daxia Dynasty soon, they'd be the ones obliterated.

The Ice Silkworm Emperor cursed, "What kind of hellish barrier is this? It's been a month and not even a single crack!"

The Mingxin Emperor remarked, "No wonder the Daxia Dynasty hasn't taken us seriously; think about it, since Prince Lu Chen knew the Shenyue Dynasty was dispatching troops to crusade against him, why would he dare stay here, unless he had something to rely on."

The Ice Silkworm Emperor said, "Whatever his reliance is, if this barrier doesn't break, we're the ones who'll have to flee!"

Typically, an emperor wouldn't easily abandon the empire they built, as an empire could be the result of a lifetime's effort, and the empire's Qi Fortune bolstered their current prowess. Abandoning their empire to flee would certainly greatly reduce their strength.

The Era Tribulation is approaching; now, with reduced strength, the consequences are evident.
