Ancient Godly Monarch

The date of the exit opening finally arrived. During these few days, numerous battles erupted throughout the boundlessly vast mine area as people started to frenziedly plunder from each other. Those weaker immortal-foundation characters had all of their harvest stolen. Many people died as well.

In fact, even several immortal kings died within the mine.

Qin Wentian also encountered many robbers. He didn’t show any politeness and killed them all, taking their spatial rings for himself instead. This was the law in the mines. He wouldn’t take the initiative to plunder but if people dared to antagonize him, he would show no mercy. Hence, the meteor stones on him grew more and more in number. When the giant spatial gate exit finally appeared, when its light enveloped the entirety of the mine, Qin Wentian actually felt a little depressed.

There were so many meteor stones with him, including quite a few emperor-ranked ones. Was 90% really going to be taken away like this? This was something he felt extremely unhappy about. Although he was invincible inside the mines, but he as an immortal king, how was he qualified to covet the belongings of the Realmlord? Wasn’t this simply courting death? The Realmlord wouldn’t even know of this matter, his subordinates could easily handle Qin Wentian. Even the Jialan Monarch could squash Qin Wentian to death.

He knew that the Jialan Monarch controls the mines in this region, and all of these mines contained spatial gates that led directly to the Jialan Monarch’s emperor palace. The resources of these mines, even if it was an ordinary mine, no one could covet it. If someone actually dared to act according to their greed, they would immediately be classified as bandits and become fugitives.

“Everyone exit immediately.” In the air, the guards spoke, their voices thundered through the mine. Many experts rose up and entered the spatial gate, vanishing from this location.

Ten years. It has been ten years. Every ten years, a mine would produce many meteor stones, alongside with many experts dying within. There were even some who would be trapped for ten more years until they obtained sufficient meteor stones to pay off whatever they had to. These people were usually the weaker ones, the stones they mined would be plundered by others.

But in any case, one rule was for sure. Nobody could steal the cultivation resources in the mine for themselves.

“Let’s leave.” Qin Wentian and Yang Yun`er entered the exit too.

In the outside world, numerous guards appeared, even more than the number Qin Wentian had seen when the guards brought him in. When the spatial gate opened, it was also the day to claim the harvest. Two immortal emperors from the Jialan Emperor Palace would come here to do the supervision. After that, they would return straight away via the teleportation array, leaving nothing to chance. But then again, there was of course nothing that was absolute.

Those who just exited the mine were made to gather in a vast area. All of them took out their interspatial rings to account. Qin Wentian and Yang Yun`er were among them. With two immortal emperors as supervisors, the other immortal kings were responsible for accounting. Who would dare to create trouble?

Also, these two immortal emperors weren’t among the immortal emperors he had seen before when he went to the Jialan Emperor Palace. From this, one could see how many immortal emperors the Jialan Monarch had under him. Just this fact alone would make the Jialan Monarch a supreme power at the very peak in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms.

Qin Wentian stared at the surrounding experts who handed over their interspatial rings, feeling pain in his heart. 90% was to be paid as tax?

…

Although this mine was just an ordinary mine, the Jialan Monarch took no chances. There were a total of three teleportation arrays leading to the Jialan Emperor Palace. Reinforcements could arrive here instantly at any time.

Also, there were powerful guards around the teleportation array, especially during harvest day. The many peak-stage immortal kings were undoubtedly elites among the Jialan Monarch’s subordinates.

At this moment, before a teleportation array, two peak-stage immortal kings were standing on guard. They seemed to be closing their eyes in meditation but their immortal senses were constantly sweeping through the surroundings in vigilance.

At this moment, the two of them seemed to have sensed something. Their immortal senses rushed toward a certain direction and a moment later, a gigantic beast appeared in their vision.

This beast was a lion. Both his eyes gleamed with an evil green light, which shot into the minds of the two immortal kings. They struggled frenziedly, wanting to resist it but in the next moment when they opened their eyes again, green light actually could be seen gleaming within. The gigantic lion had already seized control of their minds.

For the guards at the other two teleportation arrays, they encountered the same scenario as well. Their eyes gleamed with greenlight as a tiny figure of a lion appeared in their minds.

“Destroy the teleportation arrays.” A voice rang out in their minds. With no hesitation, these mind-controlled experts all unleashed their strongest attacks, destroying the teleportation arrays. In an instant, the rumbling thunderous sounds shook the entire mountain range, causing the experts who just exited the mines to shudder as their expressions changed.

The expressions of the two immortal emperors drastically changed, turning pale.

Usually, nobody would dare to touch a mine. But if somebody did so, they were extremely clear in their hearts of what was happening.

Those who dared to do this were definitely bandits. There was no need to doubt so. Also, it should be a large bandit group.

One of the immortal emperors instantly took out a message crystal and send his immortal sense in, “Monarch, there are bandits appearing here, and the teleportation arrays were all destroyed.”

As the sound of his voice faded, a stifling pressure suddenly bore down from the sky. A group of experts had all released their auras. All of them were, at the very least, at the immortal king realm. Also, they exuded a sharpness that only came about through constant warfare.

In the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, bandits were more dangerous and terrifying compared to ordinary troops under each of the nine monarchs. Even if they had the same cultivation base, because bandits had to dance on the edge of life and death often, their combat prowess was usually superior. Also, all of them were extremely ruthless characters.

Qin Wentian still had no idea what was going on, but Yang Yun`er had already turned pale. She pulled his arm and whispered, “Bandits!”

“Bandits?” Qin Wentian narrowed his eyes. When he first entered the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, at Windthunder City, Jialan Mingyue had already tried to frame him, saying that he and Beiming Youhuang were bandits. To think that he would encounter real bandits the first time he came to mine meteor stones.

What made him be taken aback was that these bandits seemed even more like an army compared to the guards of the Jialan Monarch. Each of them was clad in full armor, ready for battle at any instant.

As bandits, their faces were naturally covered. Who would be willing to show their faces? There were some extremely cautious bandits who hid their identities and mixed within cities after they retired. No one would know that they were once a bandit.

In the air, the terrifying demonic lion appeared. His eyes shone with an evil jade-green light as he stared at the surroundings.

“Evil Emperor!” The two immortal emperors froze. As emperors, they actually felt fear in their hearts at this moment.

That’s right, the name Evil Emperor, was referring to this demonic lion. This lion was an extremely powerful demon emperor.

Naturally, he wasn’t the leader of the bandits.

The Evil Emperor was the mount of a supremely powerful great bandit named the Night Empyrean many years ago.

Night Empyrean could be considered a legendary bandit in the Lifelong Realm. His strength was terrifying to the extreme and he had plundered many mines before, including an extremely valuable large mine. This incident even caused the Realmlord to sit up. Two Empyreans eventually joined forces, laying an intricate trap and finally managed to kill the Night Empyrean while suffering many casualties of their forces.

This was an incident that happened many years ago. Who would have thought that the beast mount of the Night Empyrean would actually appear in one of the mines controlled by the Jialan Monarch today.

Were the forces under the Night Empyrean planning a comeback?

But something was wrong. Although these bandits were united, they weren’t the past followers of the Night Empyrean. A majority of the Night Empyrean’s forces had already been annihilated. If not, if the Night Empyrean was still alive, why would he target such an ordinary mine?

The two immortal emperors radiated coldness. They naturally didn’t forget the legend of the great bandit. Back then, the Lifire Empyrean was one of the two empyreans that joined forces to kill the Night Empyrean.

Also, the nine monarchs under the Lifire Empyrean had also participated in that battle.

“Who are you?” One of the immortal emperors stared at a lithe figure standing on the back of the demonic lion. This figure was clad fully in armor as well. Only a pair of eyes gleaming with sharpness could be seen.

That person didn’t reply. The entire space was so quiet that it felt terrifying. The bandits then descended, their auras and pressure they radiated, caused countless people to tremble.

“What should we do?” Yang Yun`er stared at Qin Wentian as she asked. She didn’t expect that she would be able to survive in the mine. But after they exited, she felt hope again. Could it be her hope was going to turn into despair now?

Qin Wentian’s expression was also extremely unsightly. There were many immortal emperors in the air, and especially that demonic lion, Qin Wentian knew he didn’t have the strength to fight them. Right now, even the two immortal emperors under the Jialan Monarch, felt fear in their hearts.

“Kill all the guards, allow none to escape.” An immortal emperor of the bandit forces coldly spoke, causing countless people to turn pale.

Given the strength of the bandits, how would they even fight against them? Wouldn’t that be courting death as well?

“All of you excavators are not allowed to move. If not, don’t blame us for starting a massacre.” A cold voice rang out from the figure standing on the demonic lion. The immortal emperors of the bandit forces then directly rushed at the two immortal emperors.

“LET’S MAKE A RUN FOR IT!” At this moment, the situation was already out of control. The majority of the crowd feared that their lives would even be worse than living in the mine if the bandits took over. If they attempt to escape, they would still have a chance to live!
