Even on the ground, the Asura Demon Image was continuously struggling, roaring like a wild beast. However, the countless chains became tighter and tighter, and they started to drag the Asura Demon Image underground.

The Asura Demon Image vigorously struggled, but it was as if its body was sinking into a swamp. It roared reluctantly, and after it had been fully dragged under, everything became peaceful again.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Zhao Fu had used his own blood as the core summoning ingredient, he wouldn’t have been able to take it down. Even now, he was only able to seal it underground.

The Asura Demon Image had no intelligence and was just like a beast. Its only desire was to kill and destroy.

This Asura Demon Image, which had been summoned using 15 million corpses, was unable to be controlled, and it even tried to kill its summoner, which made this a great failure. However, the Asura Demon Image’s power seemed to be quite terrifying.

Seeing that the Asura Demon Image had been sealed, the City Lords all inwardly let out a sigh of relief. Even with so many people, they weren’t confident that they would be able to face the Asura Demon Image.

“Please forgive us, Your Majesty,” the Black and White Impermanences said as they knelt on the ground, nervously pleading for mercy. Because of them, Zhao Fu had nearly been killed.

Zhao Fu told them to rise and didn’t blame them. It was his fault for underestimating the power of a forbidden technique, as he had been overconfident.

“Sir, it’s best not to use something like that in the future. It’s not something of this world,” one of the City Lords said with good intentions to Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu nodded and said to the City Lords, “Now that this situation has been resolved, you may all return to your own regions. If there’s anything, I will send people to let you know.”

After hearing this, all of the City Lords started to leave.

In the end, only the woman in white was left. She looked at Zhao Fu as she asked, “What are you going to use that thing for?”

After seeing just how monstrous the Asura Demon Image was, the woman in white felt quite unsettled. If the person in front of her unleashed its power, it would be no less dangerous than the Undead Disaster.

Zhao Fu looked at her and replied, “I don’t know yet!”

Zhao Fu wanted to use the Asura Demon Image for something because it would be a waste not to use such a terrifying power. However, he didn’t yet know what he would be using it for.

The woman in white coldly harrumphed, “It’s best that you don’t use that power, or you might lose control and result in calamity to yourself and others.”

After speaking, the woman in white turned into a ray of light and disappeared over the horizon.

Zhao Fu watched as the woman in white left. He knew that he had to be extremely careful and couldn’t be careless in the slightest.

Afterward, Zhao Fu summoned over 200,000 soldiers to escort the 400,000 residents back before going to clean up the system main cities.

When Zhao Fu went over, he saw countless ruined buildings and corpses strewn everywhere, but the protective barrier was still protecting the City Hall.

Even a Basic City’s protective barrier was quite difficult to break through, and this was even more so for a Great City – destroying one would take quite some time. The Skeletons were only interested in living creatures, so none of them had bothered to attack the protective barrier.

Zhao Fu took out the City Lord Seal and canceled the protective barrier before walking into the City Hall. He looked at the golden cube hovering in the air and felt quite excited – this was the first system main city that he had obtained.

Zhao Fu walked over, placed his hand on it, and chose to conquer and relocate it as strings of system announcements sounded out.

“System announcement! Congratulations, you have conquered a system main city and obtained 5,000 Achievement Points.”

“System announcement! Because you are a Legatee and conquered a system main city, you have obtained a large amount of this region’s Fate.”

“System announcement! You have relocated a system main city and obtained 820,000 EXP.”

“System announcement! Congratulations, you have obtained 200 War Points.”

The structures around him slowly collapsed, and Zhao Fu took the City Creation Stone and quickly left. He then went to the three other system main cities and chose to conquer and relocate them.

The system announcements were all the same, but there were some other announcements, such as that that the Great Qin City had leveled up, a region announcement, and a reward announcement.

“System announcement! Pouring Sun region’s four system main cities have all been conquered and relocated; this region will no longer spawn players.”

Zhao Fu wasn’t the only who heard this; every Chinese person also heard the region announcement.

All of them were quite shocked – Pouring Sun was the region where that shocking battle had erupted. However, none of them could have expected that 15 million players would be slaughtered and for the four system main cities to be unable to escape misfortune either.

Now that Great Qin had obtained four system main cities, its power would become even more terrifying. This caused the countless players to feel even more terrified of Great Qin.

Next was a reward announcement.

“Congratulations, you have conquered a region and obtained a Region Treasure Box as a reward.”

The Region Treasure Box was a golden box that was as big as a palm. There were all sorts of gemstones socketed into it, and one could tell at a glance that it was something incredibly good.

After Zhao Fu opened it, a blinding golden light shot out as a one-meter tall crystal tree appeared. Zhao Fu looked at its information in curiosity:

[Reality Tree]: A tree that contains a great amount of reality power. It can create five Reality Fruits per day. Anyone who eats this fruit will have one’s body completely brought into the Heaven Awaken World. Only aliens of the Heaven Awaken World can consume it.

After consuming a Reality Fruit, one could bring one’s real body into the Heaven Awaken World – this greatly shocked Zhao Fu.

With the Reality Tree, Zhao Fu would be able to ignore all threats in the real world because he would be in a completely different world. How would anyone be able to threaten him? With Great Qin’s power in the Heaven Awaken World, there was no need to fear anyone.

Zhao Fu had always been worried that he was too weak in the real world, and he could be bullied by anyone without being able to retaliate.

Now that he had the Reality Tree, Zhao Fu wouldn’t have to worry about any of these things, so he felt much more relaxed about this.

However, Zhao Fu didn’t plan on fully entering the Heaven Awaken World just yet. There were still many things he wanted to take care of in the real world, and he could obtain all sorts of information. Moreover, he was the proxy leader of the Ying family and held a lot of power, so he wasn’t in too much danger.

He could use the Reality Fruits in a key moment and have his body enter the Heaven Awaken World, getting rid of all worries for him.

After obtaining this item, Zhao Fu couldn’t help but grin. The Reality Tree wouldn’t have been very useful to the system factions, but it was of incredible value to him.

Great Qin’s soldiers were currently transporting corpses from the ruins and collecting the spoils. There were not only 400,000 Stage 1 corpses but also many S grade corpses and roughly 10,000 A grade corpses.
