"Ci Xiu, continue to prepare for battle." Jiang Xuan spoke for a moment, gradually calming down, and looked at Great Demon God Ci Xiu again to instruct him.

"Yes." Great Demon God Ci Xiu responded. War preparations take a long time, not to mention that the Chaos alien race is distributed in various worlds within the Ancient Ruins. Resources, troops, and so on all require time to mobilize.

Moreover, now that he has openly confronted the Three Realms, he must also guard against attacks from the Three Realms.

Jiang Xuan watched Ci Xiu leave, a smile on his face, gazing into the endless void, as if looking out at something.

...

In the Chaos, there is a beautiful star, which is Wuyan Star. Half of its area is shrouded in dim light and shadow, obviously covered by formations, while the other half is not.

On one of the huge islands, Jiang Xuan was waiting in a military camp.

This is the military camp of Wuyan Star. Wuyan Star often recruits powerful individuals, and beings at the level of Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals are especially welcome. The reason why Jiang Xuan is here is to join Wuyan Star and keep an eye on the Black Lotus God Emperor's side.

The reason he's waiting is for a World God to confirm his strength, a step that all beings who join Wuyan Star must go through.

Of course, under normal circumstances, a being's strength is confirmed by defeating puppets. Wuyan Star has three types of puppets, corresponding to the three levels of ordinary Ancestral God, top Ancestral God, and peak Ancestral God.

But Jiang Xuan wouldn't stay here for too long, and the requirements for ordinary soldiers were too numerous, especially some oaths, which Jiang Xuan could not accept.

Only with the rank of General could he have greater power and more easily come into contact with the Black Lotus God Emperor's side.

"If I break through to the World realm, there's no need for so much trouble. I could just charge into the Black Lotus Empire." In the military camp, Jiang Xuan, clad in silver scale armor, sat in a palace, enjoying delicacies with the other soldiers.

But that was just wishful thinking. The Black Lotus Empire was also extremely powerful, with sixty-one Chaos worlds under its command and six World realm beings stationed there.

Of course, that wasn't the key. The most troublesome was the Black Lotus God Emperor himself. His foundation was not shallow, as he was a disciple of a Dao Lord and possessed an Eternal Divine Weapon.

That Heart God General was hiding in the core territory of the Black Lotus Empire, and wouldn't normally show himself. Moreover, even if Jiang Xuan disguised himself, he wouldn't have a legitimate reason to suddenly attack the Black Lotus Empire, which would inevitably arouse suspicion.

If he succeeded, the Origin Elder might need some time to react, and he would still have time to kill the Origin Elder. But if he failed, it would be like hitting the grass and startling the snake. Regardless of Jiang Xuan's intentions, with the Origin Elder's temperament of being able to lurk in a realm for hundreds of millions of years, it was impossible for him not to take precautions.

What's more, he didn't know how many restrictions there were on the Origin Elder's heart force control methods. If the original body and the second primordial spirit died, the beings controlled by him would also die, then he would have worked in vain.

Therefore, he could only wait patiently now, because the World realm being didn't know his strength. To invite a World realm being to test his strength, he had to wait until the World realm being had time.

Jiang Xuan had reported it more than ten years ago, but there was still no news. Fortunately, the Black Lotus Empire and Wuyan Star were opposing forces, and the movements of the Black Lotus Empire could be detected in Wuyan Star.

Moreover, a Heart God General like that wouldn't normally leave the Black Lotus Empire's territory. Even if he wanted to inquire about any news, he would basically let his subordinates inquire.

After all, his status was different. Once he left the Black Lotus Empire's territory, he would inevitably be attacked by forces hostile to the Black Lotus Empire. Wuyan Star, or other hostile forces, would be happy to see the beings under the Black Lotus Empire beheaded.

"That... is Gong Chao?"

"Why is he here?"

Just then, several voices rang out. Jiang Xuan naturally heard them. The somewhat familiar name made him happy. Now he could finally end his long wait.

Looking up, he saw a young man in white clothes and white hair. Beside him was an Ancestral God in charge of recruiting people for the military camp.

"Brother Xuan Yuan, this is Gong Chao." The Ancestral God in charge of recruiting soldiers introduced, "He is the eldest disciple of Immortal Xu You."

"Fellow Daoist Gong Chao." Jiang Xuan smiled.

This man, Gong Chao, had a handsome appearance, with flowing robes and a box on his back. Sensing his aura, it could be known that he was an Ancestral Immortal. At this moment, he smiled and said, "By the order of my master, I invite you to go to Xu You Palace."

"Alright." Jiang Xuan didn't hesitate. It was the same no matter which World realm being assessed him. Anyway, he wouldn't use his full strength, he just wanted to borrow the power of Wuyan Star.

Accompanied by Ancestral Immortal Gong Chao, Jiang Xuan left the military camp, and the two flew side by side.

The World realm beings of Wuyan Star all have their own palaces. Immortal Xu You's palace was a towering black palace, which emitted circles of golden ripples, sweeping across all directions.

This palace was also a treasure, reaching the level of a Dao Divine Weapon, especially with many great formations surrounding it. It was difficult for ordinary World realm beings to break through.

Servants guarded the entrance of Xu You Palace, and they didn't stop them when they saw them walking in together.

Inside Xu You Palace, there was a different world. A grain of sand, a world. It was also very vast here. At a glance, beautiful women of various races were everywhere, as well as some rare birds and animals. There was a gurgling spring, and the spiritual energy it emitted was compelling, obviously not an ordinary spiritual spring.

Jiang Xuan followed Ancestral Immortal Gong Chao all the way to the main hall, and soon saw Immortal Xu You.

That was a white-haired old man sitting cross-legged in a loose white robe, with an amazing aura comparable to a Chaos world.

Those who become World realm will have a golden core in their body that evolves into a Chaos world. Therefore, it is very simple for Chaos Immortals to destroy a Chaos world. Because of this, World realm beings generally do not fight in ordinary Chaos worlds, which are too fragile for them, and may be shattered in a few moves.

Of course, the Eternal World is another matter. The Eternal World has the Dao and rules left by the Eternal Emperor, not to mention World realm beings, even Dao Lords, few beings can destroy it.

"Master, Ancestral God Xuan Yuan has arrived." Gong Chao was the eldest disciple of Immortal Xu You, and he traveled with Immortal Xu You from the Chaos. Later, by chance, he joined Wuyan Star.

"Greetings, Immortal Xu You." Jiang Xuan bowed. This Immortal Xu You was not very strong, but he had lived for countless years, and his foundation was definitely not shallow.

"Good." Immortal Xu You smiled faintly, "Not bad, you are very confident. As soon as you joined the Wuyan Army, you asked a World realm being to confirm your strength. I hope your strength matches your confidence."

Jiang Xuan was very calm. He didn't intend to show his full strength. Having the strength of a top World realm being at the Ancestral God level, such a monstrous figure could never join a force like Wuyan Star, which would inevitably make people think too much.

"Come on, let me test your skills." Immortal Xu You chuckled, then pointed a finger, and a ripple floated in the void, but it dissipated in an instant.

Bang!

Jiang Xuan threw a punch, blasting towards a void on his side. The void shattered, and a transparent finger shadow could be seen, as if traveling in the void, invisible and silent.

"Spatial techniques?" Jiang Xuan threw another punch, shattering the finger shadow. This Immortal Xu You was truly as his name suggested, with an extraordinary understanding of the spatial Dao.

Of course, this little trick was difficult to pose a threat to Jiang Xuan.

"Very good, to be able to shatter my finger with two punches, you are stronger than a peak Ancestral God." Immortal Xu You smiled. His finger wasn't very lethal, but it was strange and difficult for ordinary Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals to detect.

"If you can take this palm from me, you will have passed my test."

Immortal Xu You slowly raised a hand, and the entire void stagnated at this moment. As a Chaos Immortal, he had a Chaos world within his body as a source of power, which was much stronger than Ancestral Gods and Ancestral Immortals.

Even a monstrous Ancestral God like Jiang Xuan was only comparable to them in terms of means, but far inferior in terms of energy.

"Extinguish!"

With a palm pressed down, the entire void began to distort, and Jiang Xuan's body seemed to be caught in a vortex, also being distorted, and this distortion was not only on the flesh, but even the soul and true spirit appeared to be in the same state.

"Break!"

Jiang Xuan shouted softly, his whole person as if transformed into a Chaos star, the brilliant light pierced through the void, and all the rules and forces were imprisoned, collapsing in an instant.

"Pure Yang Dao?" Immortal Xu You was stunned. This was the ultimate "Yang" Heavenly Dao, which had reached the fifth level, and was not far from the sixth level.

His spatial techniques were pierced in an instant. The pure Yang golden light broke through all laws. This alone was something that peak Ancestral Gods could never do.

Seeing this, he had an idea in his mind. This was an Ancestral God beyond the peak. Even in Wuyan Star, he could serve as a General, a position only below the nine World realm beings.
