At this moment, nearly all the cultivators of Qingfeng City were dumbstruck. Just before, the City Lord had the upper hand and was overpowering Zheng Dong in the fight. How could the City Lord have fallen to a young brat’s hand in such a short amount of time? This was truly beyond belief! Simultaneously, the cultivators of Black Water City were also stunned. They looked at Ling Chen with eyes filled with admiration! "Ah, indeed, an eight-star Emperor cultivator’s effect is great!" After killing Mo Qinglan, Ling Chen suddenly felt more clear-headed. His understanding of the sixth form of the Green Lotus Sword Manual had deepened. Next, Ling Chen turned his gaze towards the cultivators of Qingfeng City. "Those who offend Black Water City shall be killed without mercy!" With a thunderous shout, Ling Chen charged at a cultivator in the late stages of the seven-star level. Previously, he had refrained from acting against the Black Water City cultivators because he needed their strength. But these offenders from Qingfeng City deserved to die. The morale of Black Water City’s cultivators soared, and they rushed at their opponents to kill. Some cultivators, still not having recovered from the shock, were slain. The cultivators of Qingfeng City immediately made the decision and desperately fled towards the distance. With the City Lord fallen, where would they find the courage to face Ling Chen and Zheng Dong, these two eight-star Emperor cultivators? They could only exert all kinds of methods to run for their lives! It wasn’t that they didn’t want to. But even if they surrendered, they couldn’t escape death. This is the cruelty of the World Prison. There was already a scarcity of cultivation resources, what use was there for so many cultivators? Two quarters of an hour later. With Ling Chen’s participation, they had achieved a complete victory. The majority of the invading enemies were killed. Only a handful of cultivators with good luck escaped the calamity. However, Black Water City also lost nearly a hundred cultivators. Most of them were six-star and early seven-star Emperors. Soon, the battlefield was cleared up. The bodies of the dead cultivators were moved into Black Water City. Afterward, one by one, the worlds within them were ruptured, and their spiritual power was released as spiritual energy. The cultivators of Black Water City took advantage of this spiritual energy to recover their own spiritual power. There were more than four hundred bodies of cultivators above the six-star Emperor level, and the released spiritual energy from their broken internal worlds was tremendously horrifying, reaching an astounding level. The cultivators even used this opportunity to cultivate and improve a bit of their own true cultivation. This was essentially a rare chance for them to enhance their true cultivation. Of course, they also obtained quite a number of spirit crystals from the internal worlds of these people. However, Ling Chen gave all the spirit crystals to the surviving cultivators. The spiritual energy of Black Water City returned to normal. During this time, Ling Chen was continuously cultivating the sixth form of the Green Lotus Sword Manual. Despite having killed more than thirty seven-star Emperors, Ling Chen was still unable to execute the sixth form. "It seems I’m still lacking the final touch," Ling Chen muttered. He wanted to peacefully cultivate the Sword Dao, but it seemed hardly possible. Black Water City, besides Qingfeng City, there were two other cities: Purple Cloud City and Blue Spirit City. These four cities often waged wars against each other. For Ling Chen to cultivate the Sword Dao, he had to conquer them all. Qingfeng City was considered destroyed. Without an eight-star Emperor to guard it, Qingfeng City existed in name only. "Zheng Dong, how about the strength of the City Lords of Purple Cloud City and Blue Spirit City? What is their true cultivation level?" Zheng Dong, formerly a City Lord himself, had naturally crossed swords with the City Lords of these two cities. Since he wanted to take action against these two cities, it was natural to understand the opponent first. "These two are both eight-star Emperors; among them, the City Lord of Purple Cloud City, Xia Ziyun, is a strong practitioner of the eighth layer of the World Realm, while the City Lord of Blue Spirit City, Lan Yong, is not to be feared, being only at the seventh layer of the World Realm! In addition, among these two cities, there are many Cultivators; Blue Spirit City has nearly four hundred Cultivators, while Purple Cloud City even has nearly five hundred!" Ling Chen nodded: "By the way, there should still be some Cultivators in Qingfeng City, right? Can you recruit them over? Should it be possible?" "There’s no problem with that." Zheng Dong said: "However, there are only a few dozen people there. If we really want to take action against these two cities, I’m afraid we won’t have enough manpower!" Even with these people, Black Water City would have just over two hundred Cultivators, which was still quite a gap from these two cities.

Three days later, Zheng Dong returned, bringing over forty people with him. Now Black Water City had a total of just over two hundred and sixty people. "After a while, you accompany me to Purple Cloud City!" "What are you going to do, City Lord?" Zheng Dong asked in confusion. "I want to borrow some people from Purple Cloud City and wipe out Blue Spirit City first!" Ling Chen said with a smile. Zheng Dong frowned: "My lord, Xia Ziyun is a greedy person! I’m afraid it will cost us a lot!" "No worries, I have my ways!" Ling Chen said with a smile. "My lord, why don’t we seek an alliance with Blue Spirit City instead?" Zheng Dong suggested. Ling Chen smiled faintly and said: "Blue Spirit City probably doesn’t dare to ally with us! It’s certain that there are spies from the other four cities within our Black Water City. I killed Mo Qinglan, and I can kill Lan Yong too. Lan Yong definitely won’t ally with us; he fears that after we wipe out Purple Cloud City, we’ll turn and deal with him." "However, Purple Cloud City is different. The City Lord Xia Ziyun is a genuine eighth-layer Emperor of the World Realm! She will not fear my Divine Soul techniques. Even if we wipe out Blue Spirit City, our numbers will still not match up to Purple Cloud City." "When the time comes, if we want to take action against Purple Cloud City, we’ll have the will but not the strength!" Zheng Dong pondered for a while and then said: "My lord, what if Xia Ziyun refuses to lend us troops? She should understand the principle that if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. Our Black Water City is equivalent to having two eight-star Emperors! And, if Lan Yong dies, who nearby could contend with us? Even with fewer numbers, the deterrent force of two eight-star Emperors is too great!" Ling Chen shook his head and said, "Although I can kill eight-star Emperors, I’m no threat to Xia Ziyun. In the end, it’s really only you alone. So, I am still confident." "Besides, there are some things she doesn’t have the qualification to refuse!" A sharp light flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes. Zheng Dong was puzzled. What kind of trump card did Ling Chen have to be so confident? "Follow me! During this time, complete this task as quickly as possible." Ling Chen then led Zheng Dong into a secret chamber. Zheng Dong curiously asked. A flash of light shone from Ling Chen’s hand, a stream of light shot towards Zheng Dong, and finally hovered in front of him. "A top-quality Emperor Spiritual Weapon?" Looking at the black Longsword hovering in front of him, Zheng Dong’s eyes nearly bulged out. Ling Chen actually took out a top-quality Emperor Spiritual Weapon! And, he was letting him refine it? Entering the World Prison, let alone a top-quality Emperor Spiritual Weapon, one couldn’t even bring the best Spirit Crystals in. At most, there were only about a hundred thousand or so top-grade Spirit Crystals. How did Ling Chen do it? "With this sword, could you defeat Xia Ziyun?" He had slain Murong Qingshan and crushed the Zhao Family; top-quality Emperor Spiritual Weapons, he still had a few of them. Zheng Dong said excitedly, his voice even trembling slightly.
