Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 650

Chapter 650: Chapter 653 Sacrificial Spirit [First Update]

"Stop your screaming," Wu Tian said, his eyes shimmering with boundless coldness. "It doesn’t matter if you flee. In the end, anyone who wants my life will have theirs taken by me."

With a flick of his palm, the enormous Vanquishing Heaven Seal in mid-air began to move toward the fleeing soldiers. Then...

BOOM!

The Vanquishing Heaven Seal crashed down, shaking the very earth. The deserters were all smashed into a bloody pulp. Blood splattered everywhere—it was the epitome of cruelty.

When some of the Heavenly King Country’s soldiers noticed the disturbance, they began to rally their forces and converge on the location.

"Kill them all." Wu Tian’s tone was chillingly cold. At his command...

SWOOSH!

The gigantic Vanquishing Heaven Seal moved through the air again, smashing down repeatedly.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Each terrifying impact obliterated another group of soldiers. It was absolutely horrifying. Every time that thunderous sound echoed, the onlookers trembled with fear, their scalps tingling.

It’s impossible to imagine what grade of Supreme Treasure this Vanquishing Heaven Seal is. How can it be this powerful? What a terrifying Supreme Treasure... and what a terrifying man. Looking at Wu Tian and his Vanquishing Heaven Seal, everyone was shocked beyond measure.

Beneath the immense Vanquishing Heaven Seal, which exuded a crushing pressure from mid-air, everyone felt as insignificant as ants. So weak... so small.

"Surely... all the soldiers of the Heavenly King Country can’t be dead, can they?" someone stammered in stunned disbelief.

Wu Tian looked at Xiao Shimin and declared, "Your kingdom has fallen."

"No." Xiao Shimin refused to believe it. He had always proclaimed that as long as he reigned, the Heavenly King Country would be eternal! How could it fall while he was Emperor?

He gritted his teeth in a fury. Finally, Xiao Shimin could bear it no longer and began to howl like a madman. "Do you think this is all the strength a Three-Star Power possesses?"

"Let me tell you! The difference between a One-Star and a Two-Star Power lies in the breadth of their territory and the size of their armies. But the difference between a Three-Star Power and a Two-Star Power isn’t just about land or soldiers. It’s... the Sacrificial Spirit!" At this, Xiao Shimin’s face twisted into a fierce sneer as he bellowed, "In the name of the Monarch of Tianlong Country, I summon the Sacrificial Spirit!"

Everyone was stunned. A Sacrificial Spirit?

The One-Star and Two-Star Powers had no idea that ascending to a Three-Star Power involved something like this.

The so-called Sacrificial Spirit, also known as the "Spirit of Sacrifice," is a shortened term for the "Spirit of Worship and Sustenance" of a tribe, kingdom, or clan. It is an entity that guards its patron power and intimidates its enemies.

What exactly is the Sacrificial Spirit of the Heavenly King Country? Utter confusion was written on every face.

At last, under the watchful gaze of the crowd, the ground began to shake violently. Rocks and debris flew into the air, and among them, one particular stone began to emit a faint halo.

"You wish for my aid? Do you know the price?" A voice like thunder, filled with heavenly authority, boomed from within the stone, echoing through the space. The aura emanating from the stone had already reached the Ninth Grade of the Tongxuan Realm, just one step shy of the Heavenly King Realm. Such power struck terror into the hearts of all who witnessed it.

So this is the so-called Sacrificial Spirit? Incredible. The gap between a Three-Star Power and us One- and Two-Star Powers is just too vast.

The Empress and the others were both shocked and overjoyed. Moments ago, they had been in utter despair. Who would have thought that their Heavenly King Country possessed a Sacrificial Spirit? This stone was enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. We always thought it was just an ordinary rock. Who could have imagined it’s actually the legendary Sacrificial Spirit?

Si’er and the others wore solemn expressions. A Sacrificial Spirit... who would have ever thought a Three-Star Power would have one? For them, the very concept of such a being was completely unheard of.

To everyone else, however, Wu Tian’s words meant something else entirely. Xiao Shimin and his court simply thought Wu Tian was bluffing—spouting utter nonsense.

"You don’t believe me?" Wu Tian laughed softly. "Whether you call it a Divine Light Stone or a hundred-meter giant, beneath the Vanquishing Heaven Seal, all is reduced to dust."

An uproar swept through the crowd. Is the Vanquishing Heaven Seal really that powerful?

Xiao Shimin and the Empress scoffed, convinced Wu Tian was lying. Who was stronger, the hundred-meter giant or the Vanquishing Heaven Seal? Without a fight, who could say for sure? In any case, Xiao Shimin was supremely confident in his giant.

However, the scene that followed would be etched into their memories for eternity.

"Smash."

Wu Tian uttered a single word. The instant the sound left his lips, the Vanquishing Heaven Seal plunged directly toward the hundred-meter giant.

The air was torn apart, layer by layer. Space itself trembled violently. As they watched, the crowd realized that the aura of the Vanquishing Heaven Seal was still intensifying. Vaguely, they could see the phantom image of Mount Buzhou appearing within the seal.

What... what grade of Supreme Treasure is this?! Xiao Shimin and the others were horrified as their minds raced with speculation.

The Vanquishing Heaven Seal possessed the might of a Heavenly God; it was utterly terrifying. As it descended, the hundred-meter giant instinctively felt the encroaching terror, and a deathly chill spread through its stony body.

"No..." The Sacrificial Spirit was terrified. It tried to surrender, crying out, "I... I am willing to follow you! Please spare me!"

"What? How could you do this?" Xiao Shimin was aghast. He never expected the Vanquishing Heaven Seal to be so terrifying that it could force his Sacrificial Spirit to surrender. He was also furious. As the Sacrificial Spirit of the Heavenly King Country, how can it surrender? It should be willing to fight to the death for the kingdom!
