Chapter 501: The Majestic Great Qin, the Wind, the Mighty Gale! (Part 2)
Chapter 501: The Majestic Great Qin, the Wind, the Mighty Gale! (Part 2)
This made him very conflicted.
On one hand, he subjectively believed that Fan Jian Gang was a fraud, with little genuine talent and knowledge, and was essentially a phony.
On the other hand, he rationally knew that his father would never deceive him on such a matter.
Contradiction!
Conflict!
It was very tormenting.
"You," the spirit sighed again, "Do you still think that your father is being played around by him, and so easily believes in this person?"
The Fourteenth Prince's lips twitched, but he remained silent.
Apparently, that was exactly what he was thinking.
The spirit seemed even more helpless, "You, with your exceptional talent, are meant to protect the world, but it's not just about strength."
"No matter how strong you are, unless you can overpower all enemies and be invincible in this world, there will always be someone stronger than you."
"But ask yourself, can you do it?"
The Fourteenth Prince fell silent, then shook his head.
Invincible in the world?
Is he joking?
With such a powerful Immortal Palace standing here, who dares to claim invincibility or guarantee victory?
"That's it."
"So, protecting the world doesn't solely rely on strength."
The Fourteenth Prince asked, "It relies on Imperial Art and People Management?"
"These are indeed important, but what's more important is the brain."
"Wisdom!"
The spirit shook his head, "And also..."
"Social Wisdom."
The Fourteenth Prince was taken aback.
The spirit continued, "I know that not everything he says is true, but so what?"
"In this world, who doesn't have secrets?"
"Can you say that you've never told me a single lie?"
"What we need to do is discern the truth from the lies and extract the clues we want."
"And also..."
"In this world, there's only interest."
"The world is bustling with people seeking profit, and the world is bustling with people leaving for profit."
"The Immortal Palace is powerful."
"But as long as there's enough interest..."
"Even if it means going against the Immortal Palace, who dares to speak of invincibility or guarantee victory?"
He waved his hand, no longer discussing this topic.
It seemed like he also found it absurd.
After all...
Going against the Immortal Palace? What kind of interest would that require? I dare not think about it!
"He has grasped the pain point of our Great Qin Immortal Dynasty, knowing that our treasury is empty."
"At the same time, he has given me an irresistible temptation, so naturally, I have to 'believe' him."
"And also..."
"To solve some minor troubles for him."
"They are just members of the Heaven Cleaving Sect, who broke the rules first. By executing them, the Heaven Cleaving Sect will also collapse."
"..."
Listening to the spirit's explanation, the Fourteenth Prince felt his head buzzing.
Wow...
Your 'adult' world is so treacherous and complex? But isn't Fan Jian Gang younger than me? Could it be that this is what they call the early maturity of children from poor families? He was confused.
...
"They've caught up."
The Heavenly Maiden's face changed slightly.
He still supported the Heavenly Tower, but behind him, the Fourteenth Stage black-clad man was quickly catching up.
They couldn't escape!
"Prepare to fight to the death."
Wang Teng's face darkened, "Heavenly Maiden, you go first."
"I've already said, don't underestimate people!" The Heavenly Maiden refused to retreat.
The Heavenly Tower quickly expanded, swallowing all three of them.
At this moment, since they couldn't escape, they decided not to run.
Counter-attacking was basically impossible.
But...
Fortunately, there were two experts in defense. If he and this guy fought to the death, they might be able to buy some time, right? As long as they could hold on for some time, he could continue calling for help! But...
Saying it was easy, but to actually hold out until then, it would also depend on luck.
"Think of a way to delay."
She whispered.
He Anxia frowned.
Countless microorganisms surged forth under his control, like a tidal wave.
But...
Facing a Fourteenth Stage existence, it was useless.
The gap in realms was too vast, and the microorganisms he cultivated couldn't be omnipotent. At this moment, under such a huge gap in realms, the microorganisms couldn't play any role.
They could enter the opponent's body, but couldn't do anything.
Bite?
Infect?
He didn't have that ability.
In simple terms, the opponent's resistance was too strong, and these microorganisms couldn't shake them for now. Therefore, facing such a high-level existence, He Anxia had no solution.
He was about to lose heart.
But after a moment's thought...
This couldn't be blamed on the microorganisms not being strong enough.
There was a gap of five realms!
Whoever came would be overwhelmed, they'd all be defeated instantly!
"I have no way to deal with him."
In the end, he could only sigh and look at Wang Teng and the others.
Boom!
The Fourteenth Stage expert's first wave of attacks arrived, and the Heavenly Maiden's face turned ugly as the entire Heavenly Tower shook violently.
Creating a Self-Contained World was impressive.
But it was still the old saying, the gap in realms was too vast.
And no Unbreakable Technique could truly be 'invincible', invincibility was always relative.
The same went for Immortal Artifacts.
Invincibility was always relative.
She spoke in a deep voice, "What I can do now is to exert my full strength to maintain the tower, and perhaps buy some more time."
"The gap in realms is too vast, and my defensive Immortal Art has limited use, I can only do my best."
Wang Teng's nose bled profusely.
He clenched his teeth and unleashed his Black Hole Domain to the extreme, including his Black Hole Fist.
Moreover, this time, his Black Hole Domain wasn't within the Heavenly Tower but outside it.
By enveloping the Heavenly Tower with a layer of Black Hole Domain, so that when the Fourteenth Stage expert attacked the tower, they would first encounter the Black Hole Domain.
Although it would be quickly broken through, it would still play a role.
And as the next wave of attacks from his opponent approached, Wang Teng would once again unleash the Black Hole Domain...
Time and again, his attacks were countered, causing him to suffer backlash.
But at this moment, there weren't many options left.
He had to fight with all his might! Fortunately, as a direct disciple of the Moon Embrace Sect, the one thing they never lacked was medicinal pills.
Consuming various pills like candies, he could endure for a short time.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Maiden couldn't help but grit her teeth, "What are you eating?"
"Give me two as well."
"Here."
At this moment, Wang Teng and his companion naturally wouldn't be stingy, and they shared some pills with her.
Just as the three of them prepared to defend their position, the Fourteenth Realm cultivator frowned, ready to forcefully unleash a powerful attack to annihilate them all. Suddenly, from a distance, a uniform sound of footsteps echoed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was clearly the sound of footsteps, but it was so deafening that it made the thunder in the sky seem insignificant.
Moreover, it was evident that these were the collective footsteps of countless individuals, yet they all sounded in perfect unison.
"What...?!"
Everyone's faces paled.
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator had an incredibly powerful Divine Sense, allowing him to observe a wider range. With just a glance, he spotted a large number of armored warriors marching through the air.
They were arranged in military formations, treading on the void, moving with perfect synchronization.
The deafening footsteps that resembled thunderclaps originated from this army.
Their movements were so precise that it seemed abnormal, as if there were millions of soldiers, yet they appeared to be copied and pasted.
Even their expressions were identical, exuding coldness, seriousness, and ruthlessness.
"The Qin Army?!"
His pupils constricted as he turned to look at the Fifteenth Realm cultivator who was battling the middle-aged beautiful woman.
The cultivator also sensed the arrival of the Qin Army and frowned slightly.
But soon, he made up his mind, "They'll need some time to get here. I'll kill them all!"
"..."
"Yes."
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator clenched his teeth.
Just as he was about to strike, the space in front of him suddenly distorted.
A figure emerged from within.
It was a tall and domineering figure clad in a dragon robe.
His eyes exuded authority, looking down upon the world as if everyone else were mere ants.
It was as if he were declaring, "All under heaven is the Emperor's land, and all within the seas are the Emperor's subjects!"
"???"
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator's scalp went numb after just a glance.
Fuck!
It's the Emperor of the Great Qin! A Fifteenth Realm existence! With him blocking the way, how can I kill them?
Moreover, the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty is a powerful force with Immortal Kings, not much weaker than the Heaven-Cleaving Sect.
What's worse, the Great Qin Army has a formidable reputation. Although it's said that they once fought an Immortal King with all their might, and this time, they only have a million soldiers, it's probably still enough to wipe us out.
"You dare to challenge the Great Qin?!"
The Great Qin Emperor spoke with rage, "Any casualties caused during the Talented Youth Gathering cannot be avenged. This is the rule. You dare to ignore the rules at the doorstep of the Great Qin!"
"Are you saying the Great Qin has no one to defend it?!"
"..."
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator suppressed the urge to flee, speaking in a deep voice, "Under heaven, there are countless ways to make enemies. Who said we're making enemies at the Talented Youth Gathering?"
"Do you have proof?"
"Proof?"
The Great Qin Emperor laughed. With a single word, his voice shook the heavens, "My word is the proof!"
"After I kill you, your identity will be the proof!"
"I'm about to kill someone, and you, a lowly coward, dare to ask me for proof?!"
These three statements immediately made the Fourteenth Realm cultivator break out in a cold sweat.
Wang Teng and his companions were bewildered, but at the same time, they were also delighted.
So...
The Great Qin Dynasty has come to help?
Because these bastards broke the rules?
That's right!
Well done!
"So, there's no room for negotiation?"
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator asked, his face turning dark.
"What are you?"
The Great Qin Emperor responded with disdain, "And you dare to negotiate with me?"
"Great Qin soldiers, listen up!"
"Wind!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A million soldiers shouted in unison.
"Wind! Gale Force!"
They raised their standard longbows, aimed through the air, and fired!
The arrows tore through the sky, dense and overwhelming, forming a curtain that blocked out the sun and moon.
"Damn it!"
The Fourteenth Realm cultivator was shocked, his heart racing as he frantically defended himself and tried to escape.
The closest escape route was to repel the Great Qin Emperor and break through the front line...
But he didn't even consider it.
First, the Emperor was a Fifteenth Realm cultivator, one realm higher than himself. Second, he was the Emperor, adorned with countless treasures. Repelling him?
It was like dreaming in broad daylight.
At this moment...
Running for his life was the only option!
Whoosh!
Arrows filled the sky, all shimmering with purple light.
These were special Thunder Attribute arrows, capable of increasing sharpness and inflicting paralysis and control effects. Even more, they were poisoned!
Although a single arrow wasn't too powerful, and the Fourteenth Realm cultivator could easily destroy them, the dense and overwhelming barrage formed a unique phenomenon that even a Fourteenth Realm cultivator couldn't withstand.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
He roared, struggling, attacking, and defending...
His treasures were already in use.
But...
It was still useless!
He couldn't block them at all!
Just one volley had left him injured all over, although the wounds weren't deep. But it was clear that his strength had been affected.
But...
Just as he realized it, the second volley was already upon him! The third volley was unleashed! Simultaneously, they reached for their quivers, preparing for the fourth volley...
This was...
"Hahaha!"
The Fifteenth Realm cultivator, who was in the midst of his battle with the beautiful woman, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
But...
Something felt off to him!
This shouldn't be happening! It's true that the Talented Youth Gathering has such a rule, but why are they doing this? Although Great Qin Immortal Dynasty is powerful, if it comes down to a life-or-death struggle, they might not necessarily be stronger than the Heaven Cleaving Sect. We're both major powers; shouldn't we just turn a blind eye to each other's actions?
Rules?
Rules are meant to be followed by the weak!
Who among the strong would bother adhering to them?
Unless they want to engage in a direct confrontation!
Moreover, we've already given your Great Qin Immortal Dynasty enough face by not taking action within your territory. We waited until they left your borders and even covered our faces to conceal our identities.
We didn't even use our unique Heaven Splitting Technique or other secret arts.
Under these circumstances, unless someone investigates thoroughly, no one would know it was us from the Heaven Splitting Sect who made the move! There's no way we could be accused of breaking the rules...
In other words, the Heaven Splitting Sect has given your Great Qin Immortal Dynasty enough face. Logically, you wouldn't even know about this incident, and even if you did, based on the unspoken agreement between major powers, you should still turn a blind eye.
But look at you!
You don't care about any of that and directly launch a ruthless attack without saying a word, intending to eliminate us, right?
Nonsense!
Are you trying to start a war with our Heaven Splitting Sect?!"
"Get lost!"
Boom!!!
He no longer concealed his abilities and used the Heaven Splitting Technique to force the beautiful woman to retreat. Through divine sense transmission, he spoke to the Emperor of Great Qin, "Emperor Qin!"
"Since you already know, we won't cause any more trouble."
"If you want to stand up for them, the Heaven Splitting Sect accepts the challenge!"
"But if you continue to ruthlessly kill, the Heaven Splitting Sect will not let this go either."
"Are you trying to provoke a war between our sects?"
'Emperor Qin' turned to him, his eyes gleaming with disdain, "Start a war between our sects?"
"Your Heaven Splitting Sect broke the rules first. I'm merely following the rules. If your Heaven Splitting Sect dares to fight, then bring it on!"
"Let's see if I, the ruler of millions in Great Qin, am afraid!"
The Fifteenth Realm cultivator from the Heaven Splitting Sect was shocked, "!!!"
Are they insane?
Damn!
We're giving you a way out, can't we just take a step back each and let everyone off the hook?
Do they really want to keep us here until we die?
No!
As an emperor, shouldn't you always prioritize the greater good?
For the sake of these so-called rules...
To save these two bastards, you want to make enemies with our Heaven Splitting Sect?
What are you thinking?
Are these two bastards your secret love children or something? Otherwise, if you were a normal person, how could you possibly make such a choice?
This is...
Where did things go wrong?
He couldn't understand it.
But at this moment, he didn't have the luxury to ponder further.
He quickly rushed to his junior martial brother's side and joined forces to defend against the attack. If not, his junior brother would have been killed!
Having endured three rounds of concentrated fire and suffering severe injuries, he could only withstand a few more rounds before even a Fourteenth Realm cultivator would perish.
"So, there's no room for negotiation?"
After blocking another round of concentrated fire, his eyes turned red.
"Emperor Qin, are you really intent on starting a war?"
"I..."
Swish!
Emperor Qin waved his wide sleeves, "My word is my bond, and I don't repeat myself."
At this moment, his attitude was resolute.
After ruling as an emperor for so many years, he had truly become a cunning and experienced leader.
Although Fan Jian Gang had only said a few words, Emperor Qin understood that Fan Jian Gang wouldn't dare to deceive him. In other words, they truly had a way to help Great Qin replenish its national treasury.
But why should they help him?
They needed to see his value and be convinced!
So, what is this value?
Fan Jian Gang had 'conveniently' brought up the matter of saving people, and Emperor Qin couldn't possibly not understand.
Saving people was a test!
Killing these two members of the Heaven Splitting Sect was a way to prove their loyalty! Once they were killed, the cooperation would be halfway to success.
Of course, there was also the possibility that this so-called Moon Embrace Sect was being overly bold and using him.
But...
Those who dare to use him would also have to bear the consequences.
The question was, could they afford to pay the price?
Emperor Qin had calculated everything thoroughly.
So, how could he be swayed by a few words from the other party?
"You??!"
The two members of the Heaven Splitting Sect were shocked.
They had already sent the message back, but...
It was too late!
How far was the Heaven Splitting Sect from here? By the time reinforcements arrived, the two brothers would already be dead.
Where were the other sect members?
Who could have predicted that Emperor Qin would go crazy like this? Even if they wanted to save people, why go to such lengths to eliminate them?
But Emperor Qin and his army wouldn't give them time to think.
The army advanced...
And launched a powerful assault!
The arrows were just the first wave of the attack, followed by other troops going on the offensive, forcing a 'strangulation'!
Under the might of the army...
Despite their strength, they couldn't hold out.
The army's strength lay in their ability to coordinate their forces, the specialized killing formations, and their exceptional generals!
In the end...
It was only a matter of a few rounds before they were completely overwhelmed and annihilated!
