Chapter 702: The Chosen One
🕑 Added 2024-12-08 06:01:35 +0000 UTCWith a single move, millions of the undead army fell. The overwhelming power left everyone speechless, their impression of Lin Qian changing drastically.
The Benevolent Martial Emperor, their emperor, possessed strength beyond their imagination.
The undead army they had struggled to fight against was completely annihilated in one move. This display of power was beyond anything they could have fathomed.
Looking at the remains on the ground, Lin Qian remained expressionless. He then turned and faced the combined army, saying, "I suppose some of you are seeing me for the first time."
Lin Qian's voice instantly captured everyone's attention, and they all looked in his direction, quietly listening, eager to hear what he would say next.
Seeing that all eyes were now on him, Lin Qian took a deep breath and solemnly addressed them, "Now that I have returned, the counterattack of our Huaxia Empire begins. I promise you, from this day forward, you will no longer live in fear and dread."
"The Huaxia Empire will be your strongest shield, your greatest support."
As he said this, Lin Qian suddenly raised his head, gazing toward the sky, as if his eyes could pierce through the dense miasma of death and beyond the veils of darkness.
"Dark Mage, I have a message for you," Lin Qian's voice boomed across the entire Soul Martial Continent, even reaching beyond the continent into the void outside, ensuring the Dark Mage could hear it clearly.
"Your so-called undead army—I'll crush every single one of them, leaving none behind. I will destroy you completely, avenging the innocent lives you've taken. I swear it!"
As the lord of the Earth Spirit and now the master of the entire Soul Martial Continent, Lin Qian had no difficulty spreading his voice across the entire continent.
Moreover, Lin Qian's voice carried the Emperor's will and authority, which naturally suppressed the very essence of the death energy permeating the land.
As his voice resonated through the continent, so did his aura. Simultaneously, the Huaxia Grand Array fully activated, transforming into a golden veil that enveloped the entire continent.
The once death-filled Soul Martial Continent began to gradually revive, restoring its former vitality. Every living being on the continent could feel an immense surge of strength within their bodies, as if they were filled with boundless energy.
In the void of outer space, the Dark Mage remained seated on his small asteroid, his gaze fixed intensely on the Soul Martial Continent below, his fists clenched tightly.
Even as a Saint Realm cultivator, Lin Qian shouldn't be able to project his voice across the entire continent.
Previously, the only reason his voice reached so far was due to the Dark Mage’s own use of the death energy to broadcast their conversation to the entire continent.
But now, Lin Qian had done it with his own power, and the Dark Mage knew why.
There was only one explanation—Lin Qian had become the master of the Earth Spirit and obtained control of the fragment.
Though he had arrived at this conclusion, the Dark Mage still found it hard to believe that a mere mortal could have achieved such a feat. It seemed impossible.
"If you want to play, then I’ll play with you to the very end!" the Dark Mage growled from his position in outer space, his eyes locked on the Soul Martial Continent, his jaw clenched as Lin Qian’s words echoed in his ears.
"That's the emperor's voice!"
"The Benevolent Martial Emperor has returned! Now we don’t have to worry about the undead army anymore."
"Haha! With the emperor back, there’s nothing to fear!"
At that moment, upon hearing Lin Qian’s voice, the people of the Huaxia Empire’s Southern Region erupted in cheers. To them, their emperor was invincible, and there was nothing he couldn’t overcome.
Most importantly, when the emperor was present, the Huaxia Empire had never known defeat.
During his absence, while the empire battled the undead army, there had been many defeats.
After emerging from his seclusion, Lin Qian quickly learned about these defeats, but he accepted them calmly.
This world was no longer a game; it was a real world.
In the past, in games, he could rely on spending money to win, but that wasn’t an option in this world.
Nevertheless, Lin Qian didn’t fear failure. After all, these were only small battles, and true invincibility lay within the heart.
The first thing Lin Qian did after his return was to head back to the Huaxia Empire's palace to plan the next course of action.
Seeing that Lin Qian had returned safely, Yun Yunyan finally relaxed. She had long known that her son’s situation wasn’t as simple as a mere retreat into seclusion.
She had seen the anxiety in Ye Xin’s expression, but during those critical times, to avoid distracting her, she had kept her worries to herself, silently praying instead.
Upon returning to the Huaxia Empire’s palace, Lin Qian immediately issued orders for everyone to continue their duties without any changes, reassuring them that powerful reinforcements were on the way.
According to Lin Qian, the reinforcements would be a specially trained force that had been hidden in the relic space of the ancient Huaxia Empire, waiting for this moment to emerge.
This explanation did not surprise anyone. In fact, many had speculated that the Huaxia Empire’s army had always existed in that hidden realm.
After all, Lin Qian had mentioned before that the inheritance of the Huaxia Empire came from the ruins.
Once the orders were given, Lin Qian began mobilizing the army and resources from Fantasy Star and then turned to Zhuge Ming for an update: "How is the progress on the puppet body project?"
"Your Majesty, the puppet body project is now fully complete. However, due to the limitations of the materials and the fact that we haven't yet fully perfected the technology, only one legion commander-level figure can use the puppet body to descend to your world."
"Additionally, since the materials are only available in your world, even with our supplementary resources, the puppet body’s strength is limited and cannot display even one ten-thousandth of its full power."
"That’s sufficient. Begin preparations; we may need it soon," Lin Qian nodded in acknowledgment, issuing the order.
Upon hearing his emperor’s command, Zhuge Ming quickly nodded in agreement, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "But, Your Majesty, who will you send when the time comes?"
Lin Qian smiled slightly.
"I already have someone in mind."
