Eternal Swordsman - 2
Chapter 73 - Royal Ji Can

The royal family of the Lion Paw Empire was the Ji Clan, which had over 30,000 clan members. Although it was said that there were only three major powers within the Lion Paw Kingdom namely the one known as the Flying Sword Sect, the Dark Tree Faction, and the Lou Zen clan, there was actually a fourth, there was actually a fourth one, the royal family is called the last.

The main reason for this was because the royal family was barely visible to the imperial masses. They were unlike any other power and would take part in random treasure hunts and the like, this was because the royal family of the Lion Paw Kingdom had their own dimensions that they used for smelting trails and treasure hunts.

So they did not need to take part in common activities like hunting in the Dark Abyss. Although it was said that the Dark Abyss was a dangerous place among dangerous places, the dimension governed by the royal family was at least ten times larger and larger. The danger within could be imagined.

The royal family, the Ji Clan, which housed the current emperor of the Lion Claw Empire, was a clan that remained humble in handling imperial affairs. But when they did, it would be done and arranged with an iron hand. Experts could be found everywhere in the Ji Clan, their children would use the most valuable resources the empire had to offer and have the best teachers and masters the empire had.

The Ji Clan controlled all military forces that were outside the three major powers that were publicly acknowledged. The Lion Paw Empire was huge, so big that some humans could not even travel through all the lands before dying. The Third Step Suggestion World was divided into sections, which turned into three kingdoms. And even though the Lion Paw Empire was the smallest, in order to travel long distances, a teleportation formation would be needed!

Every year, the three major powers and all the other powers had to pay taxes to the Ji Clan. The city lord had to pay taxes to the City Lord and the City Lord had to pay taxes to the State Lord who paid taxes to the Ji Clan. This is how it has been for as long as anyone can remember.

Bang

ssss

"Commander, there is a hole in the sky above the dimension of the Water World. Ji Dung is currently inside the dimension as we speak"

The door of the large hall opened with a man running inside and shouting on one knee to a middle-aged man. After hearing the news, the middle-aged man stood up, for a while, he did not know what to do with the news.

"What hole are you talking about"

The middle-aged man asked with a frown, while he asked his question, he started walking towards the door that led outside.

"The room was torn apart, I think something was trying to enter" the man who reported was the scout of the Ji clan.

They were responsible for keeping the royal family up to date with all the affairs that took place within the royal capital. And they are even responsible for taking care of the long-distance business that families have to do if and when they are in a position to do so.

"You didn't say it. Go, gather those people and meet me in the water world dimension"

The middle-aged man waved his hand as his body turned into a blur and disappeared. This middle-aged man was the commander of the military forces of the Ji clan, his name was Ji Ven. He was a Martial King who was at a later stage of his level, most people even thought that he was in the Soul Creation Realm because of how great his battle power was.

6000 Kilometers to the west of the Ji Clan was a huge sea that was red in color. Those who knew of this sea came to call it the red sea, inside, the demonic beasts could not even be counted how many there were within it and this was an extremely powerful water demon beast.

In the middle of the red sea there is a rock that looks ordinary, this stone if seen closer filled with many runes on its surface. This stone was the entrance to the dimension of the water world controlled by the royal family. Around this rock there are many flat rocks, the bed of this rock is fortified by an arrangement to stay afloat and in the same position.

This was because these flat stones were not formed naturally and were brought to this location by the people from the Ji Clan. In this many stones, the members of the Ji Clan and others related to the Ji Clan could be seen looking up at the sky at the hole that was being torn there.

"What do you think this is," a young man asked a young woman beside him.

The young lady was extremely beautiful, her face was as smooth as jade and her eyes were as bright as stars. She has average breasts and a curved body.

"Open path. Command Ji Ven when he arrives"

Everyone turned to look, as they did, they saw a middle-aged man flying towards their location at high speed. Behind him, a hundred soldiers belonging to the royal family were seen wearing their war gear.

"The royal family doesn't take this matter lightly." the young girl muttered to herself with a frown.

After a few seconds, commander Ji Ven landed on a flat rock nearby, his aura soaring. Soon after, the soldiers belonging to the royal family soon arrived as well, to everyone's surprise, each of these warriors was at the middle stage of the Spirit Resurrection Realm.

"Status report" chanted commander Ven.

"Reporting to the commander, four hours ago, after prince Ji Dung entered the dimension of the water world, the space above the dimension began to tremble and after that, a hole was torn in space" answer the other explorers while giving the Jade slip to the commander.

"so. Prepare formations. I won't take any chances" commander Ven after reading the contents in the Jade slip said in a stern voice that could shake the mountain.

"Yes sir"

The soldiers of the royal family quickly took positions, the light in their eyes showing their desire to fight. This was the Empire's spirit, if they wanted to, they could even mobilize stronger warriors to this location.

In the void, Red fog could be seen everywhere. This red mist harbored an aura of death within it, whatever this red Mist touched, would rot and turn into ashes. Standing in the center of all this Red Mist was a tall young man with long red hair who was scattered.

His hands constantly changed from hand signals to hand signals, the red mist around him swirling into a vortex that seemed to drill into the void. But this was not a normal exercise through emptiness, it wanted to drill through the barrier separating the Mortal Realm from the Eternal Domain.

So wanting to trace it won't be easy at all. Beside the young man, a thick red Mist also quickly gathered, the young man spat blood into the mist, and soon, muscles, bones, and flesh began to form from this red Mist. After a few hours, the Mist was filled with life and appeared as its master.

"Go, find my sister, it's time to bring her home. Be tactical in everything"

The young man waved his hand and the Mist clone shot through the hole that was torn through the void. This young man spent a full ten years to find this world known as Sara among the trillions of the underworld and another year to drill a hole in this void.

This young man was Jia Redmountain, the first prince of the Jia family in the Great Mist World and the first son of Jai Jadedragon. This young man was the first brother Jia Lin, his elder brother whom his father had sent to pick him up and bring him back to the domain. But wanting to do so was better said than done, first, he had to wait until his younger brother broke through and started walking on his path of becoming an Immortal.

The Jia Redmountain clone was only at the next stage of Soul Creation, just like when Okino Nuku created its clone, it was also only limited to the Soul realm as well. But his battle power could be considered to be at the top of the world.

Ji Ven watched as the torn hole in space began to tremble frantically as if something big was about to explode. In his heart, he started to have a strange feeling telling him that he should not be here and because of him, he should not act rashly.
