Xuanyuan Sword's true strength was something Wei Chen could not ascertain; he dared not make any guarantees.
It was like Reprint in his hands, possessing little combat power. Aside from being infused with energy to smash things, it seemed to have no other abilities. Yet Wei Chen knew deep down that even just smashing someone with it could potentially kill dozens of Immortal Emperor level figures in one blow.
Especially now, with Reprint filled with Divine Power, it wouldn't be difficult to create a hole in the Nine Immortal Realm.
The kind of power held by the Jade Emperor could never truly control the Xuanyuan Sword. The Xuanyuan Sword was the king among the Ten Divine Artifacts, renowned throughout history; how could an ordinary person possibly wield it?
However, Wei Chen was concerned that the Xuanyuan Sword had been in the Nine Immortal Realm for a long time. Passed down through generations of Jade Emperors, perhaps they had discovered some method of using it? Even if it were just a little, the might of a divine artifact was not something a Dark Mage could contend with.
Although the Dark Mage had cultivated to the seventh level of the Stellar Technique, a level that Wei Chen had also experienced, he could roughly calculate the combat power of the Dark Mage. A thousand ordinary individuals at the Martial Emperor Realm would not stand a chance against the Dark Mage, who could crush them into dust with just two iron fists. The combat power of the Dark Mage was already formidable; in terms of physical strength alone, he was on par with an average Boundary God.
Caught in a struggle, Wei Chen still did not want to let the Dark Mage take risks.
"Grandfather, let me go instead. To avoid any unforeseen circumstances. Any little mishap is something I do not wish to see," Wei Chen said earnestly, looking seriously at the Dark Mage.
The Dark Mage firmly shook his head in refusal: "Child, although you are divine, you still do not understand many aspects of humanity! My confrontation with the Jade Emperor is unavoidable. I wish to battle him, and I believe he feels the same way. Does he not want to defeat me, the Demon Emperor of the magic realm, in front of countless spectators?"
"In my youth, I once competed with the Jade Emperor, and we were evenly matched. Many years have passed since then; my strength has continued to grow while the Jade Emperor, engrossed in beauty, has neglected his cultivation. His combat power is certainly inferior to mine; I can assure you of that."
"I actually think if the Jade Emperor were that weak, it would be rather dull. If I simply crushed him, what would be the point?"
"Child, what I seek is a contest where both sides are evenly matched! That powerful divine sword in his hand likely cannot unleash its true might either. Otherwise, he would have already led an attack on our magic realm."
The Dark Mage was correct; if the Jade Emperor could fully master the Xuanyuan Sword, wielding its world-destroying power, would there still be a magic realm? It would have long since become a second Nine Immortal Realm.
This point was clear to both the Dark Mage and Wei Chen. Not only the Jade Emperor, but anyone who possessed great combat power would desire to achieve something notable for future generations to admire. The same went for both the Dark Mage and the Jade Emperor.
After all, they were human and could not escape their nature. In fact, even those so-called gods were not exempt from this truth.
Otherwise, where would there be so many battles in the Endless Divine Realm?
"Grandpa, just focus on your fight. I'll protect you, so you can fight without worry. You will definitely be safe," Wei Chen assured.
The Dark Mage shook his head and said, "Child, you still don't understand my nature. I warn you, this battle is a contest with the Jade Emperor. Regardless of victory or defeat, life or death, you must not interfere!"
"This..." Wei Chen fell silent.
"Child, life and death are fated, wealth and nobility come and go. I know my own strength very well. If I didn't have confidence, I wouldn't take the risk. I need a strong opponent to break through my current realm. Do you think everyone can cultivate the Stellar Technique to that level in such a short time like you?"
"For us, battle is the best way to cultivate!"
"There is no other way!"
The Dark Mage looked seriously at Wei Chen and sternly said, "Child, I want you to swear that until my battle with the Jade Emperor is over, you cannot interfere. If you disobey, our entire Dark Magic Family will face great disaster!"
Such words could not be taken lightly.
The Dark Mage truly wanted to face the Jade Emperor openly; he could not allow anyone to interfere in his duel with the Jade Emperor.
It was a breath he had held since his youth, a chance for the Dark Mage to prove himself to the people of the Demon Realm, to the people of the Nine Immortal Realm, and to himself: I, the Dark Mage, fear no one!
Such dominance, such ruthlessness, such determination made Wei Chen secretly admire the Dark Mage.
No matter who it is or what strength they possess, as long as they have that kind of dominance within them, they are heroes!
In Wei Chen's eyes, his grandfather, the Dark Mage, suddenly appeared larger than life; it was not just respect for a powerful figure but reverence for a hero!
Dark Mage, a true hero indeed!
Heroes are not defined by success or failure; they are distinguished solely by the realm of their hearts, as seen by God Above. Dark Mage rightfully deserves the title of hero!
When Wei Chen was absent, Dark Magic Family was left with only Dark Mage. He persevered, leading the entire Black Magic Clan to strive for greatness and expansion! After Wei Chen appeared, Dark Mage saw hope. His cultivation of the Stellar Technique progressed at an astonishing pace. In his youth, Dark Mage was renowned as the Killing God on the chaotic battlefield. In his later years, his strength grew even greater, allowing him to look down upon anyone in the Demon Realm.
Now that he has arrived at the Nine Immortal Realm, Dark Mage hopes to openly defeat the Jade Emperor, who wields a divine sword. For Dark Mage, personal fame is secondary; what he truly desires is to surpass himself and push his limits.
Even though Wei Chen felt deep concern, could he really oppose his grandfather's wishes? Why would he want to stop him?
"Child, hurry and swear an oath. We are about to reach the Jade Emperor Palace. No one can interfere in my battle with the Jade Emperor. Anyone who tries to stop me will face my wrath, even if it's my own grandchild. You have already Ascend to Godhood, while I am still far from it. You can't expect me to remain stagnant and make no progress!"
"To grow stronger, one must fight!"
"A man must know when to act and when not to. If I must die, I will do so standing rather than live in shame! There will definitely be a battle between me and the Jade Emperor. We agreed on this thousands of years ago. Originally, we planned to fight a thousand years later when we were both old and nearing our end on the chaotic battlefield. But now it’s even better; our Demon Realm Army is at their doorstep, giving me a psychological advantage."
Dark Mage feared that Wei Chen might disagree and earnestly pleaded with him!
Wei Chen, no longer hesitating, clasped his right hand over his chest and vowed, "Grandfather, I swear that I will not interfere in your battle with the Jade Emperor, no matter what happens."
"Hahaha! Good! Just wait and see how I deal with that Jade Emperor!"
Dark Mage rejoiced. With Wei Chen's support, it felt as if he had the backing of the entire world!
In fact, just having Wei Chen's support was worth more than all the support in the world!
The warship of the Demon Realm sailed forward majestically. As soon as Wei Chen and Dark Mage reached an agreement, they could see the distant silhouette of the Jade Emperor Palace.
The Jade Emperor Palace was undeniably beautiful, having been home to countless generations of Jade Emperors. It also served as the administrative center of the entire Nine Immortal Realm. Through the expansions over the years, it had transformed into a massive city-state covering millions of acres.
Upon seeing the Jade Emperor Palace, Wei Chen and the Dark Mage were filled with excitement, as were all the members of the Demon Realm Army. Just over a decade ago, before Wei Chen ascended to godhood, who would have dared to imagine that a Demon Realm Army could actually march into the Nine Immortal Realm and reach the Jade Emperor Palace?
"Paralyze, we finally made it! Ever since Lord Black Demon Wei Chen decided to train us, I've been looking forward to this moment. In just over ten years, here we are at the Jade Emperor Palace!" one soldier exclaimed in disbelief.
"Haha, don't be surprised! With Lord Wei Chen here, we will conquer countless worlds! What is the Nine Immortal Realm compared to worlds that are dozens of times stronger? We have nothing to fear!"
"Indeed, Lord Wei Chen is a true god. Under his divine might, any world will bow in submission."
"But it still feels a bit unreal. It's hard to imagine that the Nine Immortal Realm has no resistance at all. Our three hundred million army has hardly suffered any losses as we reached the heart of the Nine Immortal Realm at the Jade Emperor Palace."
"That fellow Jade Emperor is probably just wasting time with the Queen Mother. A man like that is truly pathetic; with such a powerful Nine Immortal Realm, he doesn't govern properly and instead indulges in women. It's no wonder he risks losing his kingdom."
"That's true. If the Jade Emperor were as diligent as our esteemed Demon Emperor, capturing the Nine Immortal Realm wouldn't be so easy."
"Yes, we need some incompetents around to minimize our losses. We should actually thank the Jade Emperor; without him, how could we have arrived at the Jade Emperor Palace so easily?"
"Exactly! This time, with three hundred million army members, not a single one has sacrificed their life. Only at the very beginning did a few soldiers get injured. Essentially without losing a single soldier, we're on the verge of conquering the Nine Immortal Realm!"
"Haha, the Nine Immortal Realm is truly comfortable—much more so than our Demon Domain."
"For now, at least. Would you want to live here long-term?"
"Of course not! There’s hardly any magic power here. Am I supposed to waste my cultivation and start over with spiritual energy?"
"Exactly! A short stay is fine, but living here long-term is only suitable for retirement. I feel that the spiritual energy in the Nine Immortal Realm is rather soft in nature—perfect for retirement."
"Isn't it great? Haha, our Demon Realm is the best!"
"Enough with the chatter. Don't you all look forward to seeing the Demon Emperor give the Jade Emperor a good beating?"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers became extremely excited. The three hundred million Army, whether from the Demon Clan or the Sea Tribe, began to whisper among themselves.
"The strength of the Demon Emperor is unmatched. Even five hundred Martial Emperors from the Beast Clan can't withstand a beating from him."
"Hehe, that's for sure. That Jade Emperor will be left searching for his teeth."
"How many moves do you think it will take for the Demon Emperor to knock that worthless Jade Emperor down?"
"Ten moves, maybe?"
"Ten moves? I don't know if you're underestimating the Demon Emperor or overestimating the Jade Emperor. Does it really take that many moves to deal with someone like him?"
"I think three moves will do. The Jade Emperor will be begging for mercy on his knees!"
"Haha, I believe one move would be enough!"
The soldiers whispered excitedly, their spirits high. The Jade Emperor Palace was just ahead, and the Jade Emperor was also in front. According to tradition, the commanders from both sides would definitely have a showdown. They completely ignored Wei Chen; after all, he was already a god and shouldn't participate in such mortal battles—it would be nothing short of bullying.
The thoughts of the Dark Mage aligned with those of the soldiers. Fortunately, Wei Chen did not insist on stepping in; otherwise, he would have earned a reputation for "bullying the weak."
