Purple Moon Holy Land's Killing Game

Inside the East Army camp, at the Python River Army’s station.

Luo Feng was leisurely flying above the lake, heading directly towards his island.

“Look, it’s Yinhe.”

“That’s Yinhe? I heard your Sixth Squad’s captain even fears Yinhe a little?”

On an island below Luo Feng, two soldiers were conversing, looking up as Luo Feng flew past.

…

The soldier Yinhe had returned to the camp; this news quickly spread within the Python River Army’s First Brigade, Sixth Squad.

“Has your Sixth Squad’s soldier Yinhe returned? A friend of mine has long heard of his great name and wishes to make his acquaintance.”

“He just returned, he’s on his island.”

A red-faced soldier from the Python River Army’s First Brigade, Third Squad, made a quick round and soon learned of soldier Yinhe’s return. It should be known that soldiers in the camp couldn’t always be engrossed in cultivation; making friends, sparring, and so on were also extremely important. Especially for some highly renowned soldiers in special legions, many powerful individuals would be willing to befriend them, because such soldiers… had a high probability of becoming Void True Gods.

The red-faced soldier quickly left the Python River Army camp and went to the camp of another special legion.

“Chengmu! Chengmu!”

The red-faced soldier overlooked a forest below, directly sweeping it with a divine power transmission.

From a huge wooden house, entirely crafted from thick ancient trees, flew out a two-faced, four-armed man. Dressed in green combat armor, he looked up and immediately smiled, “Quhua, I was just about to look for you, and here you are. I just prepared a delicacy, come and try it quickly.”

“Chengmu.” The red-faced soldier swooped down, “Weren’t you always looking for Yinhe, that soldier from our Python River Army?”

“Yes.” The green-armored man replied eagerly, excitedly, “He’s returned to the camp?”

“Mm, just returned not long ago.” The red-faced soldier chuckled.

The green-armored man showed delight: “I’ve wanted to meet him for a long time, but nothing is as important as ‘eating’.”

“Alright, alright.” The red-faced soldier was immediately filled with anticipation.

…

In the Universe Ocean, within the Purple Moon Holy Land Universe.

Above the grand hall.

Purple Moon Ancestor sat silently with closed eyes, as if he could remain seated like that for endless eons.

Below, figures sat cross-legged, either divine avatars or divine power incarnations, all of them Universe Masters who had entered the ‘Jinzhi World’.

Suddenly, one of them, a two-faced, four-armed man, opened his eyes and abruptly stood up.

“Ancestor!” The green-robed man respectfully said, “I have received news that soldier Yinhe has just returned to the East Army camp and is currently in the Python River Army’s station.” As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding Universe Masters all opened their eyes, each one greatly astonished.

“Hmm?”

Purple Moon Ancestor, seated above, opened his eyes, a cold glint flashing within them as he looked down, “Since that is the case, let everyone act.”

“Yes, Ancestor.”

The many Universe Masters below all respectfully responded.

…

Inside the East Army camp in Jinzhi World, the Universe Masters from Purple Moon Holy Land who had joined the East Army began to act one by one.

…

Within the Purple Moon Holy Land Universe.

“Ancestor, confirmed, Luo Feng is indeed in the Python River Army’s station.”

“Ancestor, we are already waiting at the wormhole teleportation point outside the camp; once he comes out, we will immediately know.”

“Ancestor…”

Some of the Universe Masters below spoke one by one.

“Very good.” Purple Moon Ancestor looked down, nodding with satisfaction, “Since Luo Feng has entered the East Army camp, if we are to strike, we must eliminate him in one go. Chengmu… it’s up to you.”

“Rest assured, Ancestor.” Universe Master Chengmu respectfully replied.

Purple Moon Ancestor nodded silently, thinking to himself, “Luo Feng… even if you obtained the legendary Duan Dong River lineage inheritance, what of it? That old fellow East Emperor isn’t qualified to contend with me, and you, you won’t even have the chance to contend with me! No matter how brilliant a genius, once dead, they are merely a fool.”

…

In Jinzhi World, East Army camp, within the vast forest that served as the station for the special legion ‘Empress Swan Army’.

“That was truly delicious. I’ve never eaten anything so good when I was in the tribe. If I could eat this often, I’d willingly spend half my cultivation time eating.” The red-faced soldier, immensely pleased, swayed and transformed into a streak of light, flying away, “Chengmu, next time you create a delicacy, you must call me again.”

“Certainly.” Universe Master Chengmu looked up and smiled.

After the red-faced soldier departed, Universe Master Chengmu’s expression became grim.

“Is the killing game about to begin?” Universe Master Chengmu also felt an invisible pressure. As a Universe Master who had entered a special legion, Purple Moon Ancestor had entrusted this heavy responsibility to him.

“I am forsaking all my future in Jinzhi World just to ensure your death, Luo Feng; you should be proud.” Universe Master Chengmu harbored resentment in his heart. He was already familiar with the three great perilous lands of the Universe Ocean, but Jinzhi World, from the moment he entered, he was completely captivated by it.

He truly didn’t want to leave.

But once the killing game was activated, he, Chengmu, would have no further opportunity to come to Jinzhi World.

“Let’s begin.” Universe Master Chengmu no longer hesitated, immediately transforming into a streak of light and flying out.

This vast forest was the camp of the Empress Swan Army.

The Empress Swan Army was divided into two main parts: the Law Masters formed one part, and the True Gods formed the other, with both sides completely separated.

In the center of the entire camp stood a majestic and tall divine temple, with several guards in front of it. This divine temple was precisely where the commander of the ‘Empress Swan Army’ resided! Within the army… anyone capable of serving as a special legion commander was invariably a Void True God. If they were outside, they would be a hegemon of a region.

“Stop.”

“Stop, this is the commander’s residence, unauthorized entry is forbidden.”

There were six guards in front of the divine temple, two True God guards and four Law Master guards.

Universe Master Chengmu descended and immediately said, “I have an important matter to request an audience with the commander.”

“Soldier.” A True God guard barked, “How can the commander be seen so easily by you? Retreat at once.”

“I truly have an urgent and important matter to see the commander about.” Universe Master Chengmu said anxiously.

Seeing this, the two True God guards couldn’t help but exchange glances, hesitating slightly, as the one requesting an audience was also a soldier of their Empress Swan Army.

“Let him in.” A clear, cold voice sounded.

“Yes, Commander.” The two True God guards standing outside the palace both responded.

“Go in.” The True God guards all looked at Universe Master Chengmu.

Universe Master Chengmu finally let out a sigh of relief, then immediately entered the divine temple.

…

Inside the divine temple, it was like a labyrinth, with winding corridors and halls everywhere. Universe Master Chengmu could only proceed by following a certain fluctuation.

After walking for a moment…

Universe Master Chengmu saw a garden, filled with countless beautiful flowers. In this garden was a beautiful woman, possessing nine feathered tails that were green with a hint of gold, and her head was also adorned with beautiful feathers. Her appearance was so stunning that Universe Master Chengmu instantly held his breath.

“Is she the legendary Empress Swan?” Universe Master Chengmu thought to himself.

The Empress Swan Army was founded by this ‘Empress Swan’. Among the many special legions, those capable of founding one were naturally Void True Gods. However, over long periods, some Void True Gods might break through to become Eternal True Gods, and naturally, another Void True God would take their place. But breakthrough was too difficult, and more Void True Gods remained in the commander’s position.

Such was the case with this Empress Swan.

“Chengmu pays respects to the Commander.” Universe Master Chengmu immediately bowed respectfully.

“What urgent matter brings you to me?” Empress Swan’s emerald-glowing eyes swept over Universe Master Chengmu, “If you cannot state an urgent reason, you will be dealt with by military law and fed to my children.”

Universe Master Chengmu, however, showed no fear, and immediately said, “Reporting to the Commander, I inadvertently discovered a great secret.”

“A great secret?” Empress Swan remained casual.

“Yinhe, the soldier from the Python River Army’s First Brigade, Sixth Squad, he… he is actually an outsider from another force who secretly infiltrated our Jinzhi World.” Universe Master Chengmu said anxiously, “When I learned of this, I feared being silenced, so I never dared to expose it. Only after returning to the camp did I dare to report it to the Commander.”

“An outsider entered my Jinzhi World?” Empress Swan’s eyes suddenly erupted with terrifying killing intent.

Every life within Jinzhi World was absolutely loyal to Jinzhi World and absolutely hostile towards outsiders.

“You’re not lying to me?” Empress Swan stared at Universe Master Chengmu, “It has been a very, very long time since any outsider entered my Jinzhi World.”

“I would never dare to deceive the Commander; how could I dare to lie about such a matter?” Universe Master Chengmu said repeatedly.

Empress Swan stared at him, “Do you have proof?”

“I…” Universe Master Chengmu grew anxious, “I saw it with my own eyes, but proof, what proof could I possibly have?”

“And I should investigate that soldier Yinhe just because you casually said so?” Empress Swan said coldly. Though she spoke thus, Empress Swan was already suspicious in her heart. Even if her subordinate soldier Chengmu were lying, he wouldn’t lie so outrageously, would he? Perhaps it was true. Regardless, she would find a time to verify it.

“I, I…”

Universe Master Chengmu grew anxious, “Commander, I truly saw it with my own eyes.”

“Hmph.” Empress Swan coldly snorted, “I will forgive your offense this time, now withdraw.”

Universe Master Chengmu gritted his teeth, acting quite madly, “I saw it with my own eyes, he is an outsider soldier. As long as you, Commander, employ illusionary techniques to trap him in an illusion, he will naturally reveal everything. If what I say is false, and he doesn’t admit to being an outsider while under illusion, I am willing to accept death!”

“Illusion?” Empress Swan said impatiently, “It’s not for you to teach me what I should do, withdraw!”

“Commander! What I say is absolutely true! Allowing him to live would be detrimental to our Jinzhi World!” Universe Master Chengmu glared anxiously, “What I say, I am willing to prove with my death!”

Boom!

Universe Master Chengmu’s entire being exploded with a roar, his divine power completely annihilated, directly turning into nothingness.

Empress Swan was startled by the sight: “Self-detonation? To prove it with death, I didn’t expect this soldier to be loyal to such an extent.” Over her long years, she had seen many such incredibly upright soldiers, and many who proved their words with death, but this was truly the first time one had self-detonated in front of her.

“Such a loyal and upright soldier, what a pity.” Empress Swan shook her head and sighed. Immediately, the light in her emerald eyes flickered, “Could it be that an outsider truly entered my Jinzhi World?”

Whoosh.

Empress Swan vanished into thin air.
