10,000 Years In A Cultivation Sect: I Obtained A Powerful Technique From The Start
Chapter 179 - Conquering the Eastern Region, Tian Ci’s PlanChapter 179 Conquering the Eastern Region, Tian Ci’s Plan
“Senior Brother, the spatial clone has killed Zhou Tian, the 18th Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty,” Zi Linglong said. “Would it cause us any trouble?”
“Don’t worry. It’s just a dynasty,” Jiang Ming replied nonchalantly. “I tried to take his life once, but he was able to escape. Since he had already escaped, I decided to leave him alone, but I didn’t expect that he would have the guts to come back again. Well, all I have to say is that he asked for it himself. By the way, did her cultivation level increase again? That’s why she’s coming back here?”
“Yes!” Linglong nodded. “She has come across a chance of enlightenment. She thought of coming back here, but she didn’t expect to run into Zhou Tian and his troops. She tried to ignore them, but they refused to let her go, so she decided to kill them all to test her strength as well as to raise the name of the Jiuyang
Sect.”
When Jiang Ming heard what Linglong said, he shook his head and massaged his back.
Linglong covered her mouth and chuckled. “Senior Brother, is it necessary?”
“Why is it not necessary?” Jiang Ming said exasperatingly, “What can I do? All of you nine take turns to come on top of me. Do you think I don’t need to take a rest? Even an iron bar would become a needle if going at your pace.”
“Each of us is different, and we entertain you every single night. How can you still complain about us, Senior Brother?” Linglong was rendered speechless. “Could it be that you can’t do it anymore, Senior Brother?”
Jiang Ming was stumped. He hastily changed to another topic and said, “Linglong, all of your clones seem to have developed their own personalities. Are you sure it’ll be alright?”
“I did that on purpose. After all, only in this way could each of them grow independently,” Linglong said as she leaned on Jiang Ming’s chest. “I’m holding their true essence, so their lives are in my hands. Besides, I can also synchronize their memories at any time. Don’t worry so much, Senior Brother. Even if they detach from me and become a completely different individual, they will still be your Junior Sister.”
“That’s great to hear, then.” Jiang Ming nodded.
He looked ahead and locked onto the direction of Zhong Province.
The Human Path Records was hovering beside him as he kept an eye on Spatial Linglong.
In Zhong Province…
Spatial Linglong chopped off Dao Sheng’s left arm in a swipe. An immortal light erupted from his body to block the attack that was directed at his mind and saved his life.
“As expected of an Extreme Path expert who has mastered the Spatial Law. You’re truly powerful!” Dao Sheng said, his face grim at the fact that he was nearly killed just now.
“Guys, are you still going to stand there and watch?” he snarled without turning his head.
The light in the distance warped, and three people appeared out of thin air in the next second.
All of them looked young and exuded an imposing aura.
“Old Dao!” The young man in white walked toward Dao Sheng with a grin plastered across his face. “I thought this would be like walking in the park for you. I didn’t expect that you’d be defeated so soon!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Nope!” The young man in red shook his head, “He’s just giving her a chance. Old Dao, it truly surprises me that you still have a tender heart for the fair sex despite your age.”
The young man in blue just smiled and did not say anything
While they were talking, Spatial Linglong activated her Paradis Projection and sealed the entire area.
“You guys finally have decided to show up? I thought you were going to keep hiding!” she said, her eyes brimming with joy. “You’ve noticed us?” The young man in white frowned slightly.
“The Light Ray Dao is indeed a good ability in concealing your presence, but it’s nothing in front of the Spatial Dao,” Linglong said. “Are you guys going to attack me as well?”
“You killed our prince, disregarded our empire’s dignity, and still expected us to sit by and do nothing? If we don’t step forward, what if other people just simply come to our country and kill one of our princes? It would bring us a lot of trouble as well, don’t you think so?”
The young man in white said, “Honestly, we don’t really care if we lose one or two of our princes, but it doesn’t mean that we have to sit by and do nothing about it. Miss, please come with us to the imperial palace. With your cultivation level, I’m sure no one will dare to make things hard for you.”
“I can let you go for what you’ve said. Now, get out of my face!” Linglong said, “I must kill Dao Sheng today, but I can spare your life if you guys leave now. If not, here will be your graveyard!”
“Nonsense!” the young man in red shouted. “Do you really think you can do everything you want just because you’ve fully mastered the power of space? You seriously have underestimated us and the empire!”
“Are you guys not leaving?” Linglong asked again, her voice low.
“And we’ll say it one last time. Give no resistance and allow yourself to be captured. If not, we’ll kill you right away!” the young man in red said as a lyre appeared in front of him.
“Chronostasis!”
Without giving them a chance to say anything, Linglong launched her Paradis as well as the strongest special abilities in the Spatial Law.
At that moment, Dao Sheng and the three young men were frozen in place. However, there was an immense amount of power erupting from their bodies as they tried to break themselves from the restraints.
They only needed one more minute, and they could break themselves free, but they did not have the chance anymore.
Swoosh…
Linglong had pierced through their foreheads within the blink of an eye, destroying their sea of consciousness and exterminating their souls in the Paradis. The four of them were dead. Their bodies crumbled away, leaving quite a number of loot behind.
Linglong waved her sleeve, collected all the loot, and went away.
After a short while, an old man appeared.
“How vile! She killed every one of them!” The old man was furious, but he was confident he couldn’t chase after Linglong at his current speed. He thought for a moment and then went back to the empire.
He did not really care if Zhou Tian was dead or not, but it was a huge loss to the empire since they had lost four Extreme Path experts.
One day later, an imperial edict was released. The Crown Prince would bring an army to invade the Eastern Region and destroy the Jiuyang Sect.
100 warships were heading toward the Eastern Region.
Inside the imperial palace, the emperor, otherwise known as the Holy Emperor, was sitting on his throne.
He was a man in his middle age, but he had a dominating and regal aura around him. A yellow light exuded from his head, making him look even more imposing than ever.
“Your Majesty!” An old man said, “According to the information we received, although the Jiuyang Sect is a second-rate sect in the Eastern Region, they’re protected by a Great Monarch. There’s a good chance that it’s the Jiuyang Sect who destroyed the devil army that invaded the Northern Region. If we really send troops to attack them, I’m afraid that not even we can stop that being if he gets annoyed.
“Rest assured, Minister Zuo,” Emperor Zhou replied flatly.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside of the palace.
“The Holy Lord of the Yantian Sect has arrived!”
The voice sounded nervous and filled with fear.
A figure stormed into the hall in the next second, followed by a few guards.
Emperor Zhou rose to his feet and waved his hand at the guards to dismiss them. He walked down from his throne and smiled. “What’s the matter, Shen Daoyou? You should’ve sent me a message if you’re coming.” “Emperor Zhou!” Shen Daoyou made a bow at Emperor Zhou, his face stern, “Did you send a troop to the Jiuyang Sect in the Eastern Region?”
“I knew I couldn’t hide it from you. My son was killed, and four Elders died tragically. This is a huge matter. It’s about the dignity of our empire, and there’s no way we can let it slide.” “Sigh! Listen to me, Your Majesty. Withdraw your order immediately. Then, we’ll figure out what we should do next.”
“No way. I’m the emperor, and I can’t withdraw an order that has been given. Shen Daoyou, I’m just dispatching my troops to the Eastern Region. Why do you look so worried?”
“After learning that you’ve dispatched a troop to the Eastern Region, I tried to look into the future. Do you know what I saw? The sky is raining blood, and the land is falling apart. Zhong Province… Zhong Province will be destroyed!” As Shen Daoyou talked, his face turned paler and paler with each passing second.
Emperor Zhou frowned. He was well aware of the Yantian Sect’s ability to look into the future.
“Brother Zhou!” Shen Daoyou sighed and continued. “That person comes from the Eastern Region, and according to our speculation, he’s a lot stronger than a Heavenly Immortal. Not only that, but he also has immortal weapons in his hands, so what are we supposed to do if we piss him off? “It took him only one hit to exterminate nearly all of the devils that invaded the Northern Region, and when he descended for the second time, he wiped out the remaining devils that couldn’t be destroyed despite the combined effort of all Sacred Lands. Are you sure our Great Zhou can stop him if he comes to destroy us?”
“I…” Emperor Zhou hesitated. It went without saying that he knew how powerful that person was, but the Court of Elders decided this matter. Therefore, he couldn’t do anything as either.
“This, this, this…” Shen Daoyou opened his mouth and sighed. “Brother Zhou, the Yantian Sect is gifted with the ability to look into the future, and what we seek is immortality. Unless there is a great disaster, we won’t participate in any fight. Now that a great catastrophe is going to happen soon, the Yantian Sect is going into seclusion. Please take care of yourself, Brother Zhou.”
Emperor Zhou’s expression changed. “Brother Shen, are you really sure about that?” Shen Daoyou sighed in relief and said with a smile, “The Court of Elders of the Great Zhou is very strong, but it’s nothing more than a coalition of the royal family and many clans. However, the Yantian Sect is no weaker than the Court of Elders. Brother Zhou, please take care of yourself.”
After that, he turned around and left.
Emperor Zhou’s face sank.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn a mountain 10,000 miles away from the imperial palace…
This was the headquarters of the Yantian Sect.
After Holy Lord Shen returned, he briefly described the situation to his members. Then, a wizened voice rang out. “The Yantian Sect is bestowed with the great ability to look into the past and the future. We’ve helped the Great Zhou Dynasty to rise to its eminence, so we don’t owe them anything. Right now, the Great Zhou Dynasty is bent on taking the risky path of looking for supporters, but little do they know that they’re stepping onto the edge of a cliff. One more step ahead, and they’ll fall to their death. From today onward, the Yantian Sect will move out of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s territory and go into seclusion!”
The palace on the mountain gave out an intense light before disappearing into the ether.
At the Tianyuan School…
Ye Ming, an Extreme Path expert who had the Space Illusion God Body, came to look for Liu Changkong
“Sir, Emperor Zhou has dispatched his troops to attack the Eastern Region. Is he out of his mind?”
“No, he didn’t lose his mind. Rather, he became more audacious since he found someone to back him up. Therefore, he decided to unify Zhong Province and the world so that he can find a good location when he’s going to ascend in the future.”
“What is going on, sir?” “This has something to do with Tian Ci.” “Tian Ci?”
“When I found out that he was hiding some immortal weapons after being attacked, I knew something was wrong. When he ascended into the Paradis Realm after we’ve activated the Chamber of Time to speed up his cultivation, we noticed that his soul fluctuated abnormally, and he had been connecting to the Akasa. Then, he continued to cultivate in seclusion and stepped into the Imminent Immortal Realm. After that, he went to the forbidden land and tried to convince the Elders to attack and investigate the Jiuyang Sect.”
“Sir, could it be that he’s reincarnated? Why does he want to investigate the Jiuyang Sect?”
“Listen to me first. Due to the invasion of the devils from another dimension, the being who is likely related to the Jiuyang Sect has been tagged as a supreme being. Perhaps he’s a reincarnation of an immortal, we don’t know, but in any case, he’s someone who wields power that is beyond the mortal realm. Since they’re on the human’s side, we have no position to investigate them, so we rejected Tian Ci.”
“That’s the right thing to do.”
“Yeah, then Tian Ci unleashed all his power in an attempt to kill all of the Elders. However, little did he expect that the Tianyuan School still had a trump card up our sleeves. We activated a great weapon, and just when we were about to kill him, he ran away.”
“How dare he! Sir, why didn’t I know anything about it?” “You were in seclusion at that time, not to mention that it happened in the forbidden land, so it didn’t affect the outside world. Now the Great Zhou Dynasty suddenly sent troops to the Eastern Region, the situation is as clear as the sky. It must be related to Tian Ci.”
“How did he convince the Great Zhou Dynasty? They have power even greater than the Sacred Land, and how can they take risks easily when stability is the main concern? Could it be that Tian Ci’s origins are truly astounding?” “I’m not really sure about it, but one thing I can assure you is that he can contact someone from above.”
“So, what are we supposed to do?”
“I’ve sent a message to the Jiuyang Sect, so all we can do now is wait and see who the person is. At the same time, we need to find out about Tian Ci’s origins. Things are getting more and more complicated.”
“Yeah. If we take a step wrong, we might…”
Both of them fell silent.
At the Jiuyang Sect, on Chuyang Peak…
Xi Yao forwarded a message to Zi Linglong.
