All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

89: Chapter 89 The Nine Cities Space Gate ProjectWhen the casualty statistics from this battle came out,

Sikong Tianwen instantly seemed to have aged quite a bit.

Fifty-three Tongtian Realm Martial Practitioners were the maximum combat power Yanjing could muster, and this time, forty-two of them were lost.

This included Wang Hao from the God-Making Project.

Had Ye Xiu not arrived in time, the entire city of Yanjing would likely have been slaughtered clean.

Inside the manor,

Sikong Tianwen looked somewhat worried.

”Senior, is it possible to contact the other eight cities?”

”It’s very difficult; the world has expanded too much this time. The communication cores can no longer sense each other. To restore contact, the distance must be reduced.”

”Cities spanning a few hundred miles aren’t that large. Have you considered bringing the nine cities together?”

With Ye Xiu’s current strength, lifting a city was something he could do. If the nine cities were relocated together, it would be a relatively safe method for future wars.

”Heh... Gathering them isn’t hard, but how would we handle the next Calamity of Heaven and Earth?”

Sikong Tianwen shook his head slightly. ”The locations of the nine cities were determined by Master Zhang through deduction. Even if the world undergoes another massive change, the topography of the nine cities will not change. Therefore, they must not be moved.”

Hearing this, Ye Xiu fell into deep thought.

A few seconds later,

he continued to ask, ”Is there really no other way?”

”There is. As Cultivators master rules, powerful experts of the Way of Space should be able to build permanent Space Gates to connect the nine cities.”

”Way of Space?”

”Yes, the Dao of Space Rules. Cultivators who master these rules can build permanent Space Gates once their cultivation reaches a certain level.”

”Is this plan reliable?”

”I’ve discussed it with the Daoist Celestial Masters. It should be reliable, though the difficulty of implementation will be significant.”

”What do you need me to do?”

”The strongest Way of Space expert in Great Xia is a councilor from Yunzhong City named Ji Xingyue, known as the number one person among the noble families. If we can get her to handle this, the success rate will be very high.”

After Sikong Tianwen finished speaking,

he walked straight to a wooden table.

He wrote a letter on the spot and handed it to Ye Xiu.

”Give this letter to her. That girl is not unreasonable.”

Ye Xiu took the letter.

He nodded.

He left the manor immediately.

A streak of light flashed across the sky as Ye Xiu vanished from the manor in an instant.

Sikong Tianwen watched the figure disappear into the horizon, his eyes filled with a complex mix of relief and helplessness.

...

...

The distance between Yunzhong City and Yanjing was closer than that to Tianfu City.

At Ye Xiu’s speed,

it would only take about ten days if he traveled at full speed.

The journey was uneventful and quite smooth.

Until the seventh day of his journey.

Ye Xiu suddenly smelled a hint of blood in the air.

Having fought for many years, he could naturally tell that the bloody scent in the air was the blood qi of the Human Race.

Frowning slightly, he extended his Qi Sense.

In just an instant, he had finished investigating everything within a thousand miles.

There were no abnormalities.

”What’s going on?”

His brow furrowed deeply.

It wasn’t within the range of his Qi Sense, meaning it was over a thousand miles away.

For blood qi to drift this far, how many people must have died for such a terrifying situation to occur?

Following the scent of blood,

Ye Xiu changed direction and flew toward the source of the blood qi.

Ten odd minutes later,

he stopped at a plain spanning a thousand miles.

Below him,

tens of millions of Human Race Cultivators were currently engaged in a fierce battle with the Black Mountain Leopard Tribe.

They were divided into three battlefields.

Those below the Sky-Soaring Realm were fighting bloodily on the ground.

Those in the Mingdao Realm and Void Imperial Realm were fighting in the air.

As for the Tongtian Realm generals, they were fighting intensely above the clouds at an altitude of ten thousand meters. Although few in number, the fluctuations from their battle made it the most powerful of the three.

The forces deployed by both sides exceeded ten million.

As the battle continued,

the casualties on both sides skyrocketed. Severed limbs flew about, and the spraying blood dyed the earth red.

Ye Xiu was tens of thousands of meters above.

Looking down at the three battlefields, a flash of surprise crossed his eyes.

The human army in the battlefield below had clearly formed a large scale, even surpassing that of Great Xia.

Where did these humans come from?

Somewhat puzzled, he chose not to help immediately, but remained high in the sky tens of thousands of meters up, quietly observing.

The war between the two sides

lasted for nearly three days before they each retreated.

Ye Xiu reached out through the void and snatched a Black Leopard Tribe general into his hand.

”Don’t waste words. Tell me now, what is the deal with the humans you are fighting?”

Bao Yun looked horrified. It was considered an expert even among those in the Tongtian Realm, but in the hands of this human before it, it didn’t even dare to harbor a thought of resistance.

This person’s cultivation had likely reached the Saint Realm.

It hesitated repeatedly before speaking. ”They are humans from the Lesser Human Realm, under the protection of the Nine-Tailed Tribe. My Black Mountain Leopard Tribe is a branch of the Leopard Tribe, and we have always been at odds with the Nine-Tailed Tribe.”

”Cut the crap and get to the point.”

”The Human Race, like my tribe, chose to connect with the Main World first. For this battle, most of their forces were deployed...”

”Damn it, you keep talking without getting to the point...”

Ye Xiu’s face darkened. His Yang Power erupted, instantly disintegrating the Black Mountain Leopard Cultivator into nothingness.

Hiding his presence,

he followed behind the humans below.

After a day of exploration, he finally discovered a realm entrance.

”The entrance to the Lesser Human Realm?”

After secretly noting this location,

Ye Xiu turned and left.

Now was not the time for contact.

Establishing Space Gates for the Nine Cities of Great Xia was urgent. If it hadn’t been for the human blood qi in the air, he wouldn’t have bothered to check this place out.
