Evan dispatched of the last titan and triumphantly walked into the occupied land under close watch from both Julian and Alex. His titanic feet left craters along his path. The sheer energy radiating outwards from the titans body disintegrated the oncoming demons. Soon the reinforcements stopped coming and in the distance a large black cloud floated towards them. Evan slashed towards the cloud releasing bright blue flames that burned so hot they turned black before hitting the cloud. The black mist was dispersed and a white demon Titan formation dropped from the sky. Evan was on alert but before he could react a spear manifested in the titans right hand and it lunged forward.
* BANG *
The black spear was blocked by a Spartan style shield but the force pushed Evans titan back a few hundred meters. once He finally stopped he pushed the spear up with his shield and activated a Legendary Skill from the past. Dozens of colossal swords formed by the titans Qi appeared in a circular formation around him. he stabbed forwards with his jade sword and all the flying swords attacked as well. The white titan masterfully blocked each and every attack. It dodged and counter attacked numerous times. while Evan suffered no damage he was continuously pushed back from the white titans spear thrusts. Frustrated the White titan released the Aura of a Immortal venerable and activated a spear skill. White and black energy swirled to the tip of the spears blade and a voice boomed so loud Evans titan shook.
" Yin and Yang Annihilation!
The spear flew through the sky cutting the void as it passed by. The white titan roared as his spear slammed into the golden shield. the centurion dug its heels into the earth below as it ripped through it. A second burst of energy impacted the shield and knocked the centurion onto its back. Taking advantage of the situation The demon Stabbed directly into the left leg of the centurion. A potent poison mist was released into the body of the titan. Evan continued to focus on the titan while his second in command hurried to rid the titans leg of the poison. The demon titan lunged its spear and body down towards the centurions Neck. Evan panicked and activated the attack functions of the shield and slammed it into the abdomen of the white titan.
As Julian watched he realized an ironic truth. Cultivators loved to act better than anyone else but when it comes to war between nations they fight in such simple ways. It was like watching a gladiatorial fight except the participants were titans made of pure energy and the ultimate goal was to kill the other. he sipped Dr pepper and ate a medium rare steak while watching the fight. He felt like he was watching a billion dollar movie. The two titans exchanged move after move, Skill after skill. after a while it seemed that Evan was gaining the upper hand but he was badly injured. He realized after some time that the enemy was the famed 4th ranked Archdevil, a rank 6 immortal venerable. His fighting spirt burned, if he could take this enemy down here and now it would be a monumental victory for the entire human race. He clenched the sword of Vasanni tightly and vines sprouted out of it and began to suck blood from his hand. Gallon after gallon was taken but his vitality replenished it faster than it was lost. once the sword was satisfied Evan launched a bold move. The centurion slammed its shield into the foot of the titan to trap it in place. The next moment the centurion wrapped its left arm around the body of the white titan.
" GET READY!!!!!!!! "
Evan commanded it and the centurion plunged the jade sword through the white titan and his own. His own men got out of the way so the next part was only shitty for the demons.
" IMPERIAL PURGE! ACTIVATE! "
The blue flames turned green and spread through the inside of the white titan killing everyone but the Archdevil. The formation collapsed and the archdevil jumped back but was stopped in his tracks. The centurions left hand had caught up to him and squeezed tight. Using all of his power he pushed back the hand but it was all for nothing. When he turned his eyes he saw the tip of the Jade sword meters away from his face.
" fuck me "
The sword cut through the demon and pierced through his palm all the way to the hilt. Exhausted Evan collapsed the formation and pulled his army into a pocket dimension treasure before activating a stealth treasure and making camp in a nearby underground cave.
The treasures possessed by Evan filled Julian with envy and he was glad that he was on the same side. How truly extraordinary must the ancient humans have been to leave behind such grand weapons of war. The thought of one day combining his weapons of war with this worlds weapons of war sent a shiver down his spine. The idea of a legendary Ak-47 or a legendary Bolter or something even crazier like a legendary laser sword flashed through his mind.
For the next couple of weeks Julian worked on his city like he was playing the sims. A neighborhood over there. an ammo factory complex over here. a new section of farmland the size of California right here. everything was so simple in his eyes now that his worry of safety had been solved. He worked hard on installing new incentive systems to boost the empires population. a household could earn a significant sum dwarfing the yearly income of most families in the Zavalla empire for simply having a single kid.
a couple more days passed by and everything was peaceful within Isvan. The southern front however had become a battlefield so brutal and bloody even the demons began to fear entering it. After taking out the southern venerable and golden immortals the demon race had no more high level cultivators to spare to reinforce their northern front. The Orks invasion from the west Had already pierced into the heartlands of the BlackRock territory. However the demons did have numbers. So many demons it would take millennia to count even a fraction of a regions population. Armed with some of the most basic weapons they charged north into a slaughterhouse. For the past month Evan had personally taken time to visit Julian and facilitate the large scale armament of his army. The plains surrounding the Warrior Gods sect had been completely flattened and hundreds of weapon factories were built and still under construction with hundreds more being added to the que daily. Tens of millions of ordinary citizens were conscripted by the empire and put into the grand army weekly. The casualties rates were low but the battlefield enlarged daily so the empire needed more manpower then ever to guard the southern front.
The train lines running south saw traffic quintuple so they greatly expanded existing rail lines to meet the empires needs. With so much Overwhelming Wealth flooding into Isvan The citizens partied and cheered at how great it was. It was all so unreal in their eyes but they were grateful nonetheless. It wasn't a blatant utopia but its citizens enjoyed luxuries not many humans can.
Besides the commercial wealth he was gaining the EXP he gained was extraordinary. Julian now sat a single rank from becoming a golden immortal. Profound immortal rank 9, the EXP requirement for the next level was astronomical. He figured if he let the war progress the way it was for a couple oy years he could rank up. The thought of going out and fighting was There but he was more fixated on creating his super soldiers and letting his empire progress.
