The Peerless Emperor

The actions of the six Awakening Realm warriors were clear to Lin Qian at a glance—they clearly intended to engage in close combat with him.

At that moment, a single thought crossed Lin Qian's mind, "Have these six guys lost their minds, actually planning to engage in close combat with me?"

As Lin Qian pondered this, the six Awakening Realm warriors had already closed in, raising their Primordial Weapons and simultaneously launching an attack, with Soul Power flickering across the surfaces of their weapons.

As the Primordial Weapons crashed down, Lin Qian's pupils constricted, and the power of his robust physique burst forth instantly. He swung the Thunder Night Sword in a circular motion towards the six Awakening Realm warriors.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Six massive collision sounds rang out, and cracks started to spider across the Primordial Weapons of the six Awakening Realm warriors, with even chunks of metal falling off them.

The six warriors from Emperor Qin's Dynasty instantly turned pale, each one sensing the terrifying force transmitted from their Primordial Weapons to their arms and then sweeping across their entire bodies.

Splatter…

The right arms of these six warriors from Emperor Qin's Dynasty, holding their Primordial Weapons, cracked open with gaping gashes as muscles twisted and blood spurted out, making it impossible for them to continue holding their Soul Devices steadily with only their right hands, forcing them to hurriedly catch them with their left.

At the same time, their costly Soul Device robes, especially the right sleeves, were torn apart by the powerful force, and wrinkles appeared on their bodies. The glow of the Soul Power dimmed, clearly indicating some damage.

The six were also blasted backward, shooting into the ranks of Emperor Qin's army like cannonballs, colliding directly into them.

Within the military formation, several soldiers who were hit by the six Awakening Realm warriors spewed blood and were knocked away, creating six empty paths instantaneously.

After knocking hundreds of soldiers flying, the remaining six Awakening Realm warriors of the Qin Dynasty barely managed to stabilize themselves, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, their faces filled with shock as they stared at Lin Qian, who was still charging towards them.

"What's going on?" the suggesting general spat out a mouthful of blood, trembling all over.

They were, after all, Awakening Realm warriors, even if at the First Level. They were indeed warriors who had survived four great calamities!

What kind of monster was this Lin Qian? With one sword strike in close combat, he had sent the six of them flying with no resistance, making them feel utterly humiliated.

But in Lin Qian's eyes, these six Awakening Realm warriors amounted to nothing. Breaking through from the Shape Origin Realm to the Nirvana Realm was merely a breakthrough of six cycles of Nirvana. If it were not for the vast lands and abundant Spiritual Energy of Emperor Qin's Dynasty, they could not have reached the Awakening Realm.

This level of Awakening Realm warriors, Lin Qian simply overlooked.

As the saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot," Lin Qian, after sending the six Awakening Realm warriors of Emperor Qin flying with a single sword strike, suddenly increased his speed and chased in the direction they had been blasted away.

Alone, Lin Qian entered their formation and swung his sword around fiercely. Thunder roared and resonated, spreading circularly as his Soul Power expanded outward, shocking all the soldiers of Emperor Qin around him and forcibly clearing a vast open area!

"I'm really curious why you would think of engaging in close combat with me." In the blink of an eye, Lin Qian reached the general, raising the Thunder Night Sword high and asked somewhat amusedly, "Back in the Coastal State, I was known as the Young Emperor. It's well known that to fight me in physical combat is suicidal."

Lin Qian spoke in jest, his imperial authority bursting forth, intimidating the surrounding area and causing Emperor Qin's soldiers to break out in cold sweat, feeling chest compression and shortness of breath, unable to look directly at him.

Claiming "I", his imperial dominance was in full force.

Even Lin Qian himself did not realize that, too accustomed to the self-address "I," he always felt it extremely awkward. Now, as he spoke it out loud to others, it was seamlessly natural, without the slightest awkwardness.

And the general before Lin Qian, terrified at the falling Thunder Night Sword, hurriedly raised his Primordial Weapon to block.

Boom!

A massive collision erupted, spattering blood before the general's eyes, mingling with the fragments of his Primordial Weapon scattering in all directions, as he no longer felt the existence of his left arm.

When he glanced sideways, he discovered his left arm had vanished without a trace, obliterated by Lin Qian's overwhelmingly mighty force.

Splurt!

A black sword blade, imbued with red-gold thunder, pierced his Dantian, causing fresh blood to gush from the general's mouth like a fountain, his eyes bulging with desperation as he looked helplessly forward.

The black blade of the Thunder Night Sword entered through his lower abdomen and after transversing, protruded from his back; he could clearly feel the Soul Power inside his body rapidly dissipating, and his life force swiftly fading.

Thunder erupted centered at his Dantian, instantly sweeping through his whole body, the unprotected flesh utterly unable to resist the ravages of the thunder.

Blood dried within the Array, his body turned to golden cinders and ash, mixing with fragments of his Primordial Weapon, floating in the air.

Another powerful warrior from the Awakening Realm of the Qin Dynasty fell, life claimed by Lin Qian's hand.

"General Shi Hao!" Several soldiers from the Life and Death Realm in the imperial army, upon seeing their general turned to ashes, cried out in disbelief, their eyes red with fury as they lost all reason and charged towards Lin Qian.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At that moment, enormous arrows flew through the air, instantly crossing the void and aiming straight at those soldiers charging at Lin Qian.

Qiang Yu, shooting from the rear of the Imperial Army, released arrows with remarkable power, reaching their targets in the blink of an eye, skewering the soldiers before they could even reach Lin Qian, stringing them together like candied hawthorns!

The thick arrows shot by Qiang Yu possessed immense force, carrying the struck soldiers into the battle formation of the Qin Dynasty.

The arrow preceded the soldiers.

Lin Qian burst with speed to rush into the battle formation of the Qin Dynasty's army, quickly distancing himself from the pursuing Imperial Army.

Even though the Imperial Army was far from the Qin Dynasty's battle formation, Qiang Yu utilizing his long-range advantage already began sniping soldiers of the Qin Dynasty's army!

Like shooting stars, Qiang Yu's heavy arrows relentlessly fired around Lin Qian, forging a path straight into the heart of the Qin Dynasty's battle formation at an incredible distance.

Holding the Thunder Night Sword, Lin Qian stood fiercely in mid-air, the black blade flaming with bright yellow, golden-red thunder moving about, the continuous sound of a roaring dragon emanating.

The Emperor's commanding presence, like heavy mountains, oppressed everything in the vicinity, at that moment, not a single soldier of the Qin Dynasty dared approach Lin Qian, their eyes filled with fear.

Lin Qian, like an emperor aloft, looked down disdainfully, as if the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were nothing but treacherous rebels he was set to crush.

In the distance, the Huaxia World Array in the three border cities was now complete, and the bright yellow radiance that symbolized the Huaxia Empire began eroding deep into the territory of the Qin Dynasty.

Lin Qian raised his Thunder Night Sword, pointing the tip directly towards the Imperial City of the Qin Dynasty, his energy erupting unrestrained.

"From this day forth, I, leading the Huaxia Empire, officially declare war on the Qin Dynasty. Those who join me, spare no mercy!"
