Chapter 23 Deterrence
Thousands of miles away from Tianyuan City, a building transformed from a huge mountain peak, several huge figures descended from the sky with a terrifying aura, and then turned into human forms and entered the hall transformed from the abdomen of the mountain.
"Sir, Qinglong is dead, why don't we ask us to avenge him?" A handsome man wearing a purple robe and with strange patterns on his face came to the deepest throne in the hall and bowed.
"Revenge? For you?" The throne was shrouded in a larger shadow, making it difficult to see the other party's true face. There was a sense of helplessness in the sharp voice: "If I hadn't blown the Soul Gathering Call just now, I'm afraid that it would not be the only one who died!"
"How is that possible?" Several people showed horror, looked at the figure above the throne, and frowned: "Didn't you say that the strongest person in the Great Kun Dynasty is just the other party's emperor, isn't the cultivation level of the Kongming Realm? And the emperor cannot come here, right?"
The sound from the throne was a little irritating: "There is a breath of the Tribulation Realm among those who are today."
"Crossing the Tribulation Realm?" After hearing this, several monsters looked at each other. The strange man stepped forward and bowed, "Sir, these people are ministers of the Dakun Dynasty. Why are the ministers better than the emperor? Why don't he be the emperor? And today we have felt that among those people, the strongest is the peak of the Cave Void."
"If you can sense it, what else should I do?" The figure in the dark shook his head: "My sense is not wrong. The other party's soul breath is undoubtedly a tribulation realm. Perhaps a master from the sky hides his identity and sneaks into the Great Kun Dynasty. The human world is very complex."
The figure changed his posture and lay on the throne and said indignantly: "This planet is so big that it is rare in this star field. However, in the past, the power of the heavenly way of the planet was too strong. Once it entered, it would be strangled by the power of the heavenly way of the planet. This time, humans have rarely advanced to the fortune, which has squeezed the power of the heavenly way and can accommodate higher powers. I originally planned to bring you a few divine beasts in and hunt them well. It would be best to use this planet to get you upgraded to the immortal life and kill the Ten Thousand Beast Stars with me. Who would have thought that there were so many people coming in with the same thoughts, among which there were even powerful immortals who had caused me to dare to huddle in this damn mountain range for so many years, and I didn't dare to show up."
"The demon clan in this world is also a waste, and there is not even a decent bloodline. Until now, there are endless powerful people in the human race's cave virtual realm, but the demon clan here is...ah~" At the end of his speech, the figure shook his head and sighed: "I originally thought that there were no masters in this local fortune dynasty. I didn't dare to challenge me if I ate his soul and Nascent Soul of the Cave Virtual Realm. Unexpectedly, this local fortune dynasty was also infiltrated by the strong."
When the emperor and his men heard this, they remained silent. The strange man said, "We are incompetent and cannot share the worries of the adults."
"No wonder you." The black shadow sighed and said, "Although the bloodline of the divine beast is powerful, before breaking through the immortal life, the accumulation is a hundred times that of ordinary beasts and human races. Your cultivation speed in the mortal realm is too slow, and I have also come from your period."
"Sir, I am a divine beast in the star field, how can I compare to it!"
"That's right, if it weren't for the injury of the adults, let alone a human tribulation state, even if the immortal came, he would have come and never returned?" Several divine beasts quickly comforted.
"Okay, there's no need to flatter you." The figure leaned crookedly on the throne and said: "Although the powerful man in the Tribulation Realm is powerful, I'm not afraid of him. When I digest the souls and Nascent Souls of the previous humans, I can almost compete with him. However, the heavenly way in this world suppresses us immortal lives too much. Let's wait for some time, and then break through that Tianyuan City in one fell swoop!"
"Yes, I understand!" When several divine beasts heard this, they were shocked and bowed.
...
Tianyuan City.
After the Jin Dynasty, the Tianyuan Sect in the past was the training base for the talents of the Great Kun Dynasty. The Tianyuan Sect also carried out several constructions and expansions with the expansion of Tianyuan City. Although the current Tianyuan Sect covers no difference from the past, in terms of style, it is no longer under the capital. Even the city lord's mansion seems much smaller than that of it.
"Master Yan, I haven't seen you for many years, and your cultivation is growing day by day!" In the magnificent and transcendent Tianyuan Palace, he smiled and said with a smile at Yan Cheng, who was his enlightenment teacher back then.
In this regard, he has been leaving Tianyuan Sect for more than a hundred years. The former Jindan deacon is now all the masters of the Cave Void Realm. There are eight masters of the entire Tianyuan Sect alone, and Yan Cheng is one of them. On the contrary, several of the former sect masters have disappeared.
"It's not as good as the Taiwei." Yan Cheng shook his head and sighed. Jiang Cheng gave up his cultivation and switched to his studies. Now it seems that he has practiced correctly. The boy who couldn't even pass the fourth level of body tempering back then grew to this point with his research on his knowledge. Unfortunately, except for the early stage, they said they were Jiang Cheng's teacher, but in fact they didn't help much. Jiang Cheng was wanted by the royal court later. Although they felt a little regretful, they didn't help much.
"But I don't know what happened to Grand Marshal Jiang came to my Tianyuan Sect this time?" Everyone sat down. Elder Luo interrupted Jiang Cheng's greetings with the others and asked directly.
"One, visit the old place again and visit your former mentor." Jiang Cheng glanced at Elder Luo and said, "Two, I came to quell the demon chaos by His Majesty. However, the demon-suppressing army has suffered heavy losses and insufficient troops. The Tianyuan Sect's masters are both in order to protect Tianyuan City. I hope that Tianyuan Sect can contribute to it."
"Tianyuan Sect has always been indifferent to military and political affairs." Elder Luo sneered: "Besides, with the ability of Taiwei Jiang, he had disrupted Tianyuan City with his own strength. How could he need our help?"
There are many factions in the Tianyuan Sect, and Elder Luo is Deacon Luo who cheated Jiang Cheng into the southern border and almost fell into the Yin formation. He belonged to the King of Zhenhai or Qiu Chi's lineage, so he naturally would not have any favors to Jiang Cheng. Although Jiang Cheng was a Taiwei, the Tianyuan Sect was transcendent and did not worship the officials and was only ordered by the emperor. Jiang Cheng is here to look for him now, so they naturally have reason to refuse. What's more, the Confucian Sect has accounted for 70%. Everyone in the world knows that Jiang Cheng openly opposed the supremacy of Confucianism in the court back then, and therefore, he is considered a new and old grudge with these Confucian elders.
"Where are there any eggs buried under the collapse of the nest?" Jiang Cheng looked at Li Yuanzong who had been silent and said, "If Tianyuan City is broken, how can Tianyuanzong be spared?"
"Master Jiang said it well." Yan Cheng nodded and said, "Sect Master, I also think that at this time, I, Tianyuan Sect, should do my part."
"Tianyuan Sect has its own rules." Elder Luo sneered: "Besides, my Tianyuan Sect has the Star Formation to protect it. There is no need to worry about the safety of the Taiwei. Tianyuan Sect does not care about military affairs, so there is no reason to respond to your signs."
"Is this what the sect leader meant?" Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at Li Yuanzong, his tone becoming indifferent.
"I, Tianyuan Sect, can provide ten Yuanying disciples to the Taiwei." Li Yuan Sect sighed. Jiang Cheng... He didn't want to provoke him, but the elite disciples of Tianyuan Sect had already agreed to Yuan Qiu and Zhenhai King, and would arrange for two families to help later. Jiang Cheng's side did not have much to give.
Ten Nascent Soul Disciples?
Jiang Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly and suddenly smiled: "It seems that this so-called starfall array has given you a lot of illusions!"
While speaking, several true energy powers overflowed from Jiang Cheng's palm and dissipated outward.
The elders were puzzled and looked at Jiang Cheng with confusion. Elder Luo frowned and said, "Prince Wei, don't make trouble unreasonable. Even though the Taiwei is the most powerful minister, our Tianyuan Sect is not under the jurisdiction of any Dakun official."
"Master, the sect leader... is not good!" Several disciples from the Nascent Soul Realm came in in a panic expression.
"Why are you in a panic?" Li Yuanzong frowned.
"For some reason, the protection sect formation suddenly collapsed on its own!" The disciple bowed with a bitter face.
"Broken!" The elders changed their expressions and stood up. Yan Cheng and others looked at Jiang Cheng, smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
Elder Luo seemed to have thought of something, turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng, and said with a look of ugly expression: "It's you?"
"I think that without the protection of the sect, you may be able to recognize your situation." Jiang Cheng stood up and said, "Have the sect leader forgotten the purpose of establishing the Tianyuan Sect?"
Li Yuanzong frowned and looked at Jiang Cheng: "What do you mean by the Taiwei?"
"The Tianyuan Sect was created by the late emperor and what he did was to provide talents for our Dakun. In the final analysis, it also wanted to serve the country. However, today, the Yuan Sect relied on the many disciples, which meant to establish a self-employed person."
Li Yuanzong and others changed their expressions when they heard this.
Jiang Cheng said leisurely: "With my salary from Dakun Dynasty, I consume millions of spiritual stones every year. When the country is in trouble, I only want to protect myself. Tianyuan Sect is indeed not subject to any official, but this official has come here and is the emperor's order to recruit soldiers. All the people in Dakun Dynasty are recruited. Tianyuan Sect always transcends the officialdom, but they are still the people of Dakun Dynasty, and now they have to openly resist the recruitment."
Turning his head and looking at Deacon Luo with a ugly face: "Well, do you want to rebel? Or are these monsters colluded with you?"
"You are slandering!" Deacon Luo's face changed and he said sternly.
"From this moment, disciples in the Tianyuan Sect, Jindan Realm and Yuanying Realm will be summoned by the Emperor's dynasty to fight against beasts, and there must be no mistakes!" Jiang Cheng ignored him and said calmly: "Otherwise, there is no need for Tianyuan Sect to exist. The Emperor's dynasty can set you up, and naturally he can find someone to replace you."
"Rareless!" Deacon Luo roared, and the momentum of the powerful man in the cave realm rose rapidly.
"Luo Feng is not allowed!" Li Yuanzong's expression changed and he quickly spoke to stop him.
"Swoosh!"
The next moment, before the other party could take action, a black shadow appeared beside Luo Feng. The afterimage flashed, and the violent aura suddenly dissipated. Luo Feng's body became stiff and looked at the man in front of him with an incredible look on his face.
"If you are disrespectful to the Taiwei, kill!" Zhao Qianjun coldly dug out the opponent's Nascent Soul, bowed and handed it to Jiang Cheng.
"Since I am unwilling to contribute to the country..." Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand, wiped the other party's soul in the screams of Deacon Luo, and looked at the Nascent Soul in his hand. Jiang Cheng looked at Li Yuanzong and said, "There is no meaning of existence. You must first calm the country when fighting against foreign countries. I hope the sect leader will not make mistakes. Although Jiang remembered the grace of his past, since he was the Grand Marshal of the Imperial Court, everything should be based on the interests of the Imperial Court."
Li Yuanzong stared at Jiang Cheng's hand, the Nascent Soul, who had completely lost his breath, took a deep breath, and bowed and said, "Receive the teaching."
"In three days, I will see all the disciples of the Jindan realm and the Yuanying realm gathered in the schoolyard." Jiang Cheng looked at Li Yuanzong and said, "It's all, the Star Fall Formation, there is no need to be launched again. He will make you have an illusion, which is not conducive to your practice."
After saying that, he ignored Li Yuanzong and the elders and deacons with ugly faces, nodded slightly to Yan Cheng and other elders who had a good relationship with him in the past, and then took Zhao Qianjun straight toward the Tianyuan Palace.
"Sect Master, we..." A Confucian and Taoist elder looked at Luo Feng's body without his eyes closed, sighed, and looked at Li Yuanzong.
"I'll order all disciples above the Jindan realm to gather in three days to wait for the Taiwei to dispatch them." Li Yuanzong clenched his fists and then let go weakly. He wanted to rescue Luo Feng just now, but when he was about to take action, Jiang Cheng looked at him and his true energy was in disintegrating. It was not until this moment that he realized that the strength of the Taiwei of the Emperor Dynasty was no longer something he could do.
This person does have the ability to destroy Tianyuan Sect!
As for formations and other things, after the Xingluo formation was broken, Li Yuanzong did not think about Jiang Cheng's attainments in formations, at least no one in Tianyuanzong can compare with him. It is better not to humiliate himself.
