Chapter 977 977 Imperial Clan Elites
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The sound of bells rang out like a great bronze bell.
It was the War Bell of the War God Academy that had tolled.
Signaling that the War God Academy was about to set out on an expedition.
"Finally, the Borderlands trial is here. I can hardly wait!"
"I really want to see the terrified expressions on those ants from the Immortal Domain."
"With the Chaos Physique lord making his appearance, and being one of the Six Kings of Apocalypse at that, this era is sure to see our world break through the border and conquer the Immortal Domain!"
From all directions within the War God Academy, countless roars of excitement rang out.
The prodigies of the great royal clans, the top-tier royal clans, the quasi-imperial clans, and even the imperial clans transformed into streaks of light and soared into the sky.
Because of Jun Xiaoyao, the morale of the War God Academy was soaring.
The Farshore Prince, Li Jiuming, Pu Yao, Jin Zhan, and the other ten Heavenly King-level prodigies also made their appearances.
However, none of them looked particularly pleased.
In the past, they had been the center of everyone's attention.
Yet now, before Jun Xiaoyao had even shown himself, he had already stolen all the glory.
"How could such a freak appear? This is far too abnormal." The Farshore Prince's expression was cold and indifferent.
He always felt that Jun Xiaoyao's appearance was far too strange.
After all, a peerless prodigy of this caliber had never been heard of before.
It was as if he had appeared out of thin air.
But now, Jun Xiaoyao's popularity was through the roof, and even the immortal imperial clans were scrambling over each other trying to recruit him.
His doubts, clearly, were something no one would listen to.
"Don't worry. On this trip to the Borderlands, whether he can come back alive is still uncertain." Li Jiuming said with a cold laugh.
"What do you mean..." Pu Yao and the others turned their gazes toward him.
"By now, news of him should have already reached the Immortal Domain. Do you think the Immortal Domain will just sit back and let him grow?" Li Jiuming said.
"Indeed. The Immortal Domain might very well launch a decapitation operation." Pu Yao gave a slight nod.
The so-called decapitation operation referred to what happened during the great war between the two realms.
A group of elites would be dispatched to hunt down and kill the enemy's monstrous prodigies, strangling them in the cradle.
On the Immortal Domain's side, they were called the Decapitation Guard.
On the Alien Domain's side, they were called the Hunters.
Though the names differed, the purpose was the same.
It was easy to imagine that if news of Jun Xiaoyao reached the Immortal Domain, it would absolutely draw their targeted attention.
When that time came, no matter how strong Jun Xiaoyao was, he would be in danger.
"Let's hope so." The Farshore Prince said.
Although Jun Xiaoyao's identity as one of the Six Kings of Apocalypse was of immense importance to the Alien Domain.
They had no desire to see Jun Xiaoyao grow into an immortal king in the future.
At that moment, a sudden commotion broke out from all directions.
The Farshore Prince and the others looked over, their expressions darkening.
It was Jun Xiaoyao and Su Hongyi who had appeared.
"Greetings, War God!"
"Salutations, my lord!"
"Long live the Chaos War God!"
Many disciples of the War God Academy cheered, gazing at Jun Xiaoyao with fanatical reverence as they clasped their hands in salute.
Some had even given Jun Xiaoyao the title of Chaos War God.
A combination of the Chaos Physique and the War God title.
"Chaos War God, what a chuunibyou title."
Hearing the wave-like cheers all around him, Jun Xiaoyao inwardly muttered to himself.
But if the truth were eventually revealed.
The Chaos War God they so deeply revered, one of the Six Kings of Apocalypse, was actually a person from the Immortal Domain.
He wondered whether their entire worldview would come crashing down.
Of course, that was a matter for later.
Jun Xiaoyao would not return directly to the Immortal Domain from the Borderlands.
Because the matter of the Soul Book, the affairs of the Farshore Clan, and news of his father had yet to be fully investigated.
Furthermore, the great undertaking of spreading his teachings still had to continue.
And the Quasi-Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus was still gestating and transforming within the Heavenly Tomb.
If Jun Xiaoyao were to return to the Immortal Domain, he would naturally do so in his most peak, most perfect, and most dominant state.
At that time, the Chaos Physique stacked with the Quasi-Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus.
The question was, who could stand against him?
"Patience. I still need to remain undercover for a while longer. There's no rush. There's still the Unspeakable Place that needs to be investigated." Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
He had a vague feeling.
That within the Unspeakable Place, it might be possible to uncover certain secrets about the Alien Domain.
Perhaps he could even find the origins of the dark matter.
And possibly, find some clues about the "Source" and the "Epochal Tribulation" that the Mythical Emperor Mifu had spoken of.
"However, I still don't know how to enter the Unspeakable Place."
"But ordinary people can't even get close. If I want to approach it later, I must earn the complete trust and regard of the Alien Domain."
"In other words, I need to make a showing in the Borderlands, something that will astonish and even shake the Alien Domain."
Jun Xiaoyao's mind was meticulous as he pondered.
This was what could be called the Alien Domain's "pledge of allegiance."
You had to contribute, perform, and render great merit before you could earn genuine trust and regard.
But that would mean killing the living beings of the Immortal Domain.
"It may not sound great to say this, but I have no shortage of enemies in the Immortal Domain either." A faint cold gleam flickered in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
Certain people in the Immortal Domain were, to him, no different from the beings of the Alien Domain.
For example, the Immortal Court, the Ancient Imperial Clan, and some of the forces hostile to the Jun family.
Killing people from these factions gave Jun Xiaoyao not the slightest psychological burden.
He even found it somewhat satisfying.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was contemplating.
Suddenly, a powerful and extraordinary aura appeared, drawing Jun Xiaoyao's gaze.
A sea of blood came rolling and surging down from the heavens, with a supreme aura permeating the air.
A man in blood-red robes stepped out from within the sea of blood.
His long blood-colored hair flowed down like a river of blood, and within his eyes, it was as though two blood-colored lakes lay hidden in their depths.
"It's the Blood Emperor Son of the Blood Demon Imperial Clan!"
Upon seeing who had arrived, someone cried out in shock.
The Blood Demon Imperial Clan was yet another immortal imperial clan of the Alien Domain, born with innate mastery over blood-path divine abilities, possessing powerful capabilities such as rebirth from a single drop of blood, condensing weapons from blood, and blood-sacrificing the world.
On another part of the sky, a blazing cloud of fire appeared, as if it were about to burn that entire stretch of sky into collapse.
The phantom of a massive demonic beast materialized.
It was a ferocious beast resembling a black hound, its tail rolling and burning like a flame.
In the end, this ferocious beast transformed into a gaunt, sinister-looking man.
"The prodigy of the Huodou Clan, Chi!"
The Huodou was a legendary beast of fire and ill omen.
The Huodou Clan was also an imperial clan of the Alien Domain.
This man was the prodigy of the Huodou Clan, known by the single name Chi.
In addition, yet another being appeared in another part of the sky.
Bearing a head resembling that of a true dragon, a human body, and bird-claw-like legs.
Both arms were covered in feathers.
This being seemed to arrive treading upon a sky full of rain and mist.
"The Emperor Son of the Jimeng Clan!"
The prodigies all around were left numb.
These imperial clan prodigies, who were rarely seen on ordinary days, appeared one after another.
Each one possessed a status so lofty that ordinary people could only look up at them from afar.
"Seeing is believing. One of the Six Kings of Apocalypse truly lives up to the name."
The Blood Emperor Son of the Blood Demon Imperial Clan looked toward Jun Xiaoyao and smiled faintly.
"A Chaos Physique unrivaled through the ages, who also drew out the God-Weeping War Halberd and became the successor of the founding War God. Truly extraordinary." The Jimeng Emperor Son spoke.
"Heh heh, the first person in this era to be bestowed the title of War God."
Chi of the Huodou Clan let out a laugh, somewhat hoarse, like sheets of sandpaper rubbing against each other, grating and harsh, giving people an uncomfortable feeling.
"These three..."
Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow.
The three of them seemed to be flattering him, yet something felt off.
"Could it be..."
A dark gleam flashed across Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
