Chapter 780: The Battle Begins
The Dark Emperor's Palace.
"I see. Is this how alchemy works?"
Bai Qi's eyes lit up as he looked at the blueprint in his hand, just like a hungry wolf seeing a fat sheep.
"It's indeed a very creative idea. It was obviously developed from the original runes, but it has taken such a unique path. The Dark Emperor is really amazing."
Shuke was also generous with his praise, and continued to integrate alchemy with what he had learned before.
The essence of alchemy is equivalent exchange, and the specific operations are very complicated, even involving the molecular level.
Simply put, alchemy is equivalent to a compression processing factory, which processes the substances put into it into a new form according to the user's requirements.
This is somewhat similar to the rune structure that Bai Qi mastered, except that one is more focused on the physical structure, while the other is an energy structure.
So in principle, these two technologies are similar.
"Although alchemy was developed under my leadership, its prototype had already appeared during the time of the First Emperor. However, humans at that time probably did not have so much time to study it properly."
The Dark Emperor carefully put away the Void Bomb and said, "It's a pity that time is still a bit rushed, otherwise I should be able to increase the power of the Void Bomb by another 10%."
"No, if you raise it any higher, innocent people will be hurt."
Bai Qi twitched the corner of his mouth. The current void bomb was already able to engulf the entire imperial capital. If it were to be upgraded further, the surrounding cities would probably also suffer.
"Yes, I will improve it slowly after this time."
Dark Emperor nodded, looked at Bai Qi and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for your help. You helped me solve a lot of problems."
"Me too. Your Majesty's human body refining formation has also been a great inspiration to me."
Bai Qi summoned Jetta and looked at the increasingly solid magic orbs of water, fire and earth elements behind Jetta, as well as the small magic orb of wind element at the bottom, and nodded with satisfaction.
At the beginning, he left Jetta with the Dark Emperor because he was thinking about whether he could find some useful information from alchemy. After all, pharmacy and alchemy have some connection.
But Bai Qi didn't expect that although Jetta didn't learn anything about pharmacy, he was actually inspired by the human body refining array and further purified his blood.

…
Judging from the race and skills alone, Jetta does not seem to have improved, but the terrifying energy of Jetta is enough to blind everyone's eyes.
The highly concentrated elemental orbs behind Jetta are the best proof of this.
"But the difficulty of your advancement is really high, Jetta. I thought you would evolve very early, but you still can't evolve even now."
Bai Qi patted Jetta's head helplessly. The treasure house of the Crystal Palace greatly enriched their resource library, so Bai Qi also generously invested a lot of resources in Jetta.
However, the Evolution Egg suffered a Waterloo this time. No matter how many resources Bai Qi invested, the Evolution Egg only increased Jetta's energy value.
"I can detect a high proportion in your pet. Conventional evolution methods may not be effective on him."
The Dark Emperor said: "But once he evolves, his abilities will probably be quite terrifying!"
"Well, I roughly know how to improve Jetta. It all depends on fate."
Bai Qi shrugged helplessly. Lately, the time he spent in the time travel was getting shorter and shorter. He had no time to look for news about the wind elemental world, and he didn't know when he would be able to achieve his wish.
"I'm sure you'll succeed."
The Dark Emperor smiled faintly, looked at the slightly bright sky outside the window, and said: "It's almost time, we should also prepare."
"Let's go."
…
Imperial capital.
The people in the city packed up their belongings early and rushed to the imperial city with their families.
Zhongding Festival is the day when the founding dynasty was born, and it is also the only time when they can face the emperor directly.
Although the dynasty's actions in recent years were somewhat radical, they will never forget that it was the Dark Emperor who brought them the long-lost peaceful life.
As for other things...it's better than being exploited like an animal by ferocious beasts.
The common people went to the imperial city one after another, without noticing that soldiers in dark gold armor quietly appeared in every corner of the imperial capital.
Outside the city, ferocious beasts with red eyes poked their heads out from the woods and quietly moved towards the imperial capital.
Inside the imperial city.
Led by the Holy Light Guards, the people came to the viewing platform prepared in advance and sat down one after another, looking at the huge open space in the center with great interest.
In addition to being able to meet the emperor, the Zhongding Festival will also showcase some new alchemy techniques, and these alchemy techniques will, without exception, provide great help to their lives and safety in the days to come.
This is also a unique benefit for the people of the imperial capital! According to the usual practice, the Dark Emperor will appear soon.
But this time, the people waited for a long time, but there was still no movement in the open space, and even the Holy Light Guards who were supposed to be guarding the surroundings were nowhere to be seen.
"Is there any special event this year?"
The people looked at each other, and suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the open space, and they all turned their heads to look.
However, what appeared in the open space was not the special activity they imagined, but a huge wild fox with a ferocious face!
"A vicious... vicious... vicious beast!!!"
Screams and cries rang out one after another, and the terrified people fled everywhere like headless flies, fearing that if they ran too slowly, they would be eaten by the wild fox.
What made them despair was that before they could escape from the viewing stand, they saw foxes of various appearances rushing towards them from all directions.
"Beast Tide? The Imperial Capital was breached?"
An intense fear enveloped everyone's heart. Along with the continuous roars of beasts in the distance, the fear continued to increase. The Dark Emperor's delay in appearing magnified this fear to the extreme.
Gradually, an emotion called despair enveloped the entire imperial capital.
"Very good, everything is just as we planned ."
Looking at the scene on the viewing platform, Luke nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to look at a white-haired, squinting old man beside him, and said, "Chief Sky Fox, it's your turn to perform next."
"No problem, but Lord Luke, please don't forget your promise, otherwise..."
A cold light flashed in the old fox's eyes, and white light mist flickered beside him, and he quietly disappeared on the spot.
"This old fox..."
Looking at the sky fox appearing above the square, the smile on Luke's face suddenly disappeared.
"When I have completely mastered the power of angels, I will first kill this old fox!"
"Brother, don't get excited. Our top priority now is to take control of the empire. As for the Sky Fox Tribe... take your time."
Seeing this, Seth immediately comforted him, and Luke nodded slightly, saying, "Well, it's time for me to come out, remember to do a good job of cleaning up afterward."
"Don't worry, I won't let go of any body."
A faint light flashed in Seth's eyes, and his smile was so terrifying that it was not like a human.
call out!
But just as Luke was preparing to make a grand appearance to suppress the Sky Fox, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the horizon and headed straight for the Sky Fox.
"There's an ambush?!"
Feeling the sharp breath getting closer and closer to him, Lao Tianhu's heart began to beat rapidly and he instinctively turned his head to the side.
A black long sword brushed past the old fox's scalp. The aura of annihilation on the sword made the old fox's pupils shrink into needles.
"You damned humans are really untrustworthy!"
The old fox looked angrily towards the location of the Borg brothers, his body became dazed, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"Fortunately, I have long seen through the bad nature of your race and made preparations in advance."
A light flashed in the old fox's eyes, and suddenly a large number of ferocious beasts appeared inside and outside the imperial capital, more than a hundred times more than the ferocious beasts surrounding the viewing platform.
In front of these ferocious beasts, a nine-tailed fox with a completely red body was leading the charge.
According to his contract with the Borg brothers, he only needed to bring a small number of ferocious beasts and disguise them as an attack on the city.
But how could the old Sky Fox be so arrogant, so he brought out most of the ferocious beasts in the Sky Fox tribe, and even took away another legendary ferocious beast in the tribe besides himself.
His move was extremely risky, but as long as he acted quickly enough, the Sky Fox Tribe's territory could be greatly expanded, and at the same time, a large number of human slaves could be harvested.
By then, their Sky Fox Tribe will surely usher in a period of talent surge, and the surrounding tribes will no longer be able to compete with them.
But just when the old fox showed up and was about to lead his people to take down the imperial capital in one fell swoop, the black sword appeared in front of him again, and the movement was exactly the same as before.
"Damn it, who is it?!"
Old Fox dodged again and looked around for the enemy who attacked him, but the long sword did not give him any chance. It stabbed him continuously, making him too tired to dodge. He could only see a figure in black armor in the gap between the sword's edges.
On the other side, the nine-tailed fox saw that its chief was beaten by a black swordsman without any ability to fight back, so it immediately accelerated to provide support, but saw a three-headed giant wolf blocking its way.
"Legendary fox? Your soul is very interesting. I don't have any legendary test subjects yet, so I decided to choose you."
Shuke looked the nine-tailed fox up and down, and the look in his eyes was basically no different from looking at meat on a chopping board.
"Damn it! How dare you humiliate me?!"
The nine-tailed fox roared and spewed out a red flame from its mouth, rushing straight towards the Husky, but was stopped by an invisible barrier.
Ahh ...
(Little fox, don’t resist. I will take good care of you~)
Beta rushed towards the Nine-tailed Fox with a sly grin on his face. The Nine-tailed Fox immediately wanted to summon his subordinates to stop him, but he found that countless warriors in dark gold armor appeared around them at some point.
They were completely surrounded !
