Peerless War God

This wait lasted for half a year.    

In this half a year, other than occasionally instructing Yue Yao and the others on their cultivation, the rest of the time, Chen Xiao was mostly instructing himself on the cultivation problems of his subordinates.    

In fact, Chen Xiao would often walk within the army camp. If he met any seedlings he liked, not only would he give them pointers personally, he would even give them some medicinal pellets to help them break through.    

Now, after all these years had passed, Chen Xiao's underlings had long admired Chen Xiao to the point that they prostrated themselves in front of him.    

In fact, Chen Xiao felt that even if he really had to fight against the people from the Heavenly Court, these people would probably bite the bullet and charge forward.    

This was also the result that Chen Xiao needed right now!    

Of course, he couldn't possibly let these people make a move against the people from the Heavenly Court right now. He didn't even reveal any news about it, merely giving them pointers on their cultivation so that they could continue to accept his favors.    

Perhaps in the eyes of the other Heavenly Kings, the way Chen Xiao had behaved in this way was very unbecoming, to the point that it did not fit his status as a Heavenly King.    

But in Chen Xiao's opinion, all of this was not important. It was enough as long as he could gather the people's hearts.    

Half a year passed in a flash.    

Half a year later, Chen Xiao suddenly received an urgent summons from the Heavenly Palace and had no choice but to rush to the Heavenly Palace.    

When Chen Xiao arrived at the Heavenly Palace, he discovered that the other fifteen Heavenly Kings were actually present.    

However, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he gathered with Duan Wang and the others, asking them if something had happened.    

After all, ever since the Celestial Emperor obtained the immortal bones, he had never summoned them again.    

But now, they were suddenly summoned. This was something that no one dared to think too much about.    

In fact, they were guessing whether the Heavenly Emperor had already broken through. That was why they were called over to demonstrate. Or rather, to let them see?    

Listening to their discussion, Chen Xiao laughed in his heart.    

Only he knew that King Lin's side had probably already begun taking action after lying in seclusion for half a year. It was likely that King Lin's side had alarmed them when the Celestial Emperor summoned them this time.    

Sure enough.    

The Heavenly Emperor appeared in the great hall. After a group of people bowed down below, he spoke out his intention to gather everyone.    

My dear sir, recently, the rebels from the Realm of Abyss have made their move and have begun to attack the troops from the Realm of Abyss." My dear sir, recently, the rebels from the Realm of Abyss have made their move and have begun to attack the troops from the Realm of Abyss.    

The Heavenly Emperor stared fiercely at the crowd, waiting for their reply.    

However, all the Heavenly Kings frowned slightly. No one was in a hurry to give a reply, but one of them instead subconsciously said: "Since that's the case, we can just destroy the teleportation formation. As long as we destroy the teleportation formation, they won't be able to come out.    

In the end, he couldn't help but to explain, "The destruction of the teleportation circle may be able to stop them from causing trouble for the time being, but, this is also the only path that we have to take to get out of the trap zone. If we destroy the teleportation circle, they might find another way out.    

With that said, the Heavenly King immediately realised that he had said something wrong. His face showed embarrassment, but he did not dare to speak anymore.    

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment.    

However, very quickly, the gaze of the Heavenly Emperor landed on one of the Heavenly Kings. The Heavenly King trembled, and did not dare to hesitate as he hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Your Majesty, we are willing to lead troops into the danger zone to suppress that group of traitors!"    

"Alright!" The Celestial Emperor nodded before turning his gaze to the others.    

"Although our beloved Tao is already willing to set off, we cannot afford to lose this time. Hence, we will need the cooperation of a few Heavenly Kings. Do any of you want to join us?"    

Chen Xiao looked around and continued, "Since that's the case, this subject is willing to go as well!"    

"Haha, alright, I'll grant you that wish!" The Heavenly Emperor looked at Chen Xiao with praise, then looked at the others.    

With two people taking the lead, especially with Chen Xiao who had achieved outstanding battle merits among them, the other people's thoughts immediately became lively.    

Immediately after, Chen Xiao finished speaking, there were another five people who bowed and accepted his orders, indicating that they were willing to head to the Confinement Grounds to suppress the rebels.    

Counting the previous seven people, the Celestial Emperor agreed. The remaining nine Celestial Kings would temporarily stand guard over the immortal realms to prevent trouble.    

After making all these arrangements, the Heavenly Emperor once again entered into closed door cultivation. As for Chen Xiao and the other seven Heavenly Kings, they also agreed that they would gather at the entrance of the teleportation formation that leads to the maze realm in half a month!    

Very quickly, half a month later, Chen Xiao and the others appeared at the fourth stage as planned.    

At this time, there was still a team of a million close guard stationed at the location of the Four Heaven Teleportation Formation.    

These people were sent here by the Celestial Emperor when King Lin had taken over the stone temple's transmission array. They were here because they were worried that the people from the Locked Area would come out. If there was no one to stop them, things would become troublesome.    

In the worst case scenario, he would just disappear into the vast starry sky like Chang King. This was something he had to eliminate.    

When Chen Xiao and the other seven Heavenly Kings arrived, naturally no one stopped them, and they easily entered the teleportation circle.    

Right now, these close guard s had already used a lot of power in the vicinity of the teleportation circle and dragged some large meteorites that were suitable for living with them from the starry sky. They set up tents and formations on them and completely surrounded the area where the teleportation circle was located.    

Now, who would want to take advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to them and sneak in, or even sneak out? It was obviously impossible.    

Chen Xiao and the others stayed at the base, and after learning the situation from the leader in charge of the close guard, they stepped into the teleportation circle.    

The close guard who was in charge of the guard post also accompanied them into the teleportation circle.    

After a flash of light, the group arrived at the depths of the Stellar River. They then returned to their respective teleportation formations.    

This time, they directly arrived at the stone house!    

However, the moment they arrived at the stone house, the group of people instantly exploded with powerful mana and were ready to respond at any time.    

However, what caused everyone to be stunned was that aside from the feeling of being enveloped by the formation, they didn't feel any mana fluctuations at all.    

When he probed with his spiritual will, he couldn't find anyone nearby.    

That formation was a trap array that covered the entire stone hall, and was extremely useful to existences below the Divine Soul Realm. However, it was obviously impossible to trap these Heavenly King Stage existences.    

After easily breaking the formation, the group of people cautiously made their way to the entrance of the stone hall and peeked outside.    

Upon seeing this sight, their eyebrows creased once more.
