Chapter 382 – The situation in the Southern Wasteland
Chapter 382 – The Situation in the Southern Wasteland
Hm?
Hearing the brocade-robed man’s words, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but both be a little stunned.
What is this situation?
What do you mean, there are still two fish in the net?
Did they come to the wrong place?
Both of them would be a bit puzzled.
However, the few cultivators following the brocade-robed man’s side would not hesitate.
Only to see their figures flashing, they were already grabbing towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan in unison.
Jiang Chengxuan: “……”
Shen Ruyan: “……”
Damn this in the end there is no mistake?
When did a mere Foundation Establishment minor cultivator dare to flail about in front of them?
At this moment, neither Jiang Chengxuan nor Shen Ruyan made any movements.
However, those cultivators who were grabbing at them, one by one, were all fixed there out of thin air.
Not a single movement could be made.
The only thing that remained was their pair of eyes, which were constantly turning in terror.
At this time, that brocade-robed man also sensed that something was wrong.
As a Violet Mansion Supreme, his pupils couldn’t help but just shrink.
He couldn’t help but be staring closely at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, and his expression changed from one of disdain to one of gravity.
He then heard him slowly speak, “Two of you, what exactly are you people?
Do you know what exactly you yourselves are doing right now?”
Jiang Chengxuan: “……”
Shen Ruyan: “……”
The two of them couldn’t help but both be speechless for a while.
Just now, it was clearly you who let someone make a move on us, okay, how come it’s now their fault?
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, since they would not bullshit with such a small character.
Just heard Jiang Chengxuan said: ”Just now you said that we are the fish that missed the net, what the hell is going on here?
And who are you guys?
This place, how did it become like this? What exactly has all happened here?”
“Uh ……
You guys aren’t cultivators from the Southern Wasteland?”
It seemed that it wasn’t until this moment that the brocade-robed man reacted furiously.
The duo in front of him should not be native cultivators of the Southern Wasteland.
“What? What’s the problem?”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately frowned.
Ka-ching-
There was no sign of how he moved.
A summoning jade talisman in that brocade-robed man’s hand suddenly shattered open out of thin air like that.
This caused the brocade-robed man’s face to immediately change.
However, he saw that Jiang Chengxuan’s face, which was already cold.
His gaze tightly fixed on the brocade-robed man, and he coldly said in a single word:
“In front of me, don’t engage in those little maneuvers, that doesn’t make sense.
Now, I want you to answer those questions I just asked.”
The brocade-robed man’s face instantly turned a shade of red and a shade of white.
To be honest, he had never been this stifled in his entire life.
So much so that his face, vaguely, became somewhat hideous.
This caused Shen Ruyan’s eyes on the side to instantly turn cold.
“Forget it, husband, since he doesn’t want to talk about it, let’s just find out for ourselves.”
After saying that, Shen Ruyan did not wait for the brocade-robed man to react, a jade hand, then directly pressed on the brocade-robed man’s head.
No matter how the brocade-robed man tried to dodge, he simply could not avoid the pressure of that jade hand.
Until this moment, the brocade-robed man finally realized that the two people in front of him were by no means something he could resist or even disobey.
He wanted to speak, wanted to say his own identity out loud.
But at this time, Shen Ruyan had already not given him that opportunity.
A force that the brocade-robed man was completely unable to resist surged into his sea of consciousness.
Making his entire consciousness, he immediately fell into a chaos.
The only thought he had left was the word “soul search”.
That’s right.
What Shen Ruyan was using on the brocade-robed man right now was precisely soul searching.
In an instant, large segments of useful and useless information, like a walking lantern, appeared in the middle of Shen Ruyan’s mind, allowing Shen Ruyan to have a detailed understanding of the situation in front of her, as well as the identities of the brocade-robed man’s several people.
By the time Shen Ruyan let go of her hand, the brocade-robed man had already fallen to the ground with his seven orifices bleeding, his breath completely gone.
Jiang Chengxuan turned his head to look at Shen Ruyan and asked:
“How was it?”
Shen Ruyan’s expression was slightly unsightly.
She pondered a little and then spoke:
“These people, they are not native cultivators of the Southern Wasteland just like us.”
“Hmm?”
Jiang Chengxuan was instantly a bit surprised.
Then he saw Shen Ruyan nod and said, “That’s right, they are cultivators from the Central Domain.
When the plague of the Devil’s Tribulation first descended, the Southern Wasteland’s Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan and Heavenly Monarch Yun Lei, knew that with the power of the two of them, it would be impossible to withstand this Devil’s Tribulation.
So.
They then sent a message to the Central Domain asking for help.
When the Central Domain learned of this, many Transformation God forces led by the Daling Imperial Dynasty demanded that Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan and Heavenly Monarch Yun Lei hand over half of the Southern Wasteland’s territory to them.
And all the spiritual veins, mineral deposits, and even cultivators in the middle of it must remain intact, without any form of relocation.
Only then were the many God-realizing forces led by the Great Ling Dynasty willing to help the Southern Wasteland Immortal Cultivation Realm.
In response, Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan and Heavenly Monarch Yun Lei knew that they had no room to bargain, much less the strength to refuse, and eventually agreed to them.
Only, what neither Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan nor Heavenly Monarch Yun Lei had expected was.
When they allowed the group of cultivators led by the Great Ling Dynasty to arrive at their Southern Wasteland through the mega cross-domain teleportation array between the two domains, the Great Ling Dynasty and the others, surprisingly, didn’t know what method they used to avoid part of the backlash of the oath contract between the two parties, so much so that they didn’t, in the first place, come out to help the Wen Yuan Heavenly Monarch and Yun Lei Heavenly Monarch and the rest of them.
It wasn’t until the Cloud Thunder Heavenly Monarch died in battle and the Wen Yuan Heavenly Monarch was seriously injured that the Great Ling Dynasty and many other God-realizing forces slowly began to make their moves to resist the demonic tribulation.
Waiting until the plague of demonic robberies was over.
Only Wen Yuan Heavenly Monarch, a severely injured Transformation God cultivator, was left, simply powerless to stop the further expansion of the Great Ling Dynasty and many other Transformation God forces, and could only watch, as they extended their tentacles until they occupied nearly two-thirds of the Southern Wasteland’s territory, and only then did they stop for the time being.
And this, was still because of the constraints of the oath contract between the two parties.
If it wasn’t for that, I’m afraid that the entire Southern Wasteland Domain at this point in time would already be the domain of the Da Ling Imperial Dynasty and many other God Transformation forces.”
Jiang Chengxuan was never expecting that the real situation here would actually be like this.
As the head of the five domains of the Nine Yuan Immortal Cultivation Realm, when they were faced with the demonic catastrophe, the first thing they considered was not to unite all the living forces to resist the demonic catastrophe, but instead, they were trying to calculate their own side of the Heavenly Monarchs of God Transformation, as well as calculating how much benefit they could actually reap from the catastrophe.
This was just like those scum who always thought of making a national fortune in times of national distress.
Hateful and detestable.
No wonder the Violet Yan Heavenly Monarchs back then, they said nothing to allow the Heavenly Monarchs of the Central Domain to meddle in the affairs of their Northern Border, much less to help them.
It was really that the other party’s appetite was too big.
To the point where any normal person would not be able to accept it.
“Furthermore, their people, after occupying those territories in the Southern Wasteland, instead of trying to develop those territories, they are vigorously overdrawing the resources in them.
They are even treating all the cultivators of this place as slaves.”
At this time, Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but speak once again.
Hearing her words, Jiang Chengxuan also finally understood why what they saw after coming to this Southern Wasteland, would be that kind of dilapidated scene.
Especially those cultivators amongst them, their eyes and faces were completely devoid of the slightest bit of anger.
What was there was numbness.
I think no matter who, after encountering such a thing, the heart will inevitably feel despair.
“Do you know where this place is that we are in now?
Roughly how much further is the distance from the area where Heavenly Lord Wen Yuan and the others are located?”
Jiang Chengxuan looked at Shen Ruyan.
Shen Ruyan thought for a moment and said, “Where we are now is the Great Yan Prefecture in the Southern Wasteland, and there is still a short distance from the Twin Gods Prefecture where Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan and the others are located.
At least with your and my speed, if we were to fly over, it would probably take about ten days.”
“Ten days? Then we might as well just go over and take a look.”
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and spoke.
Shen Ruyan nodded.
“Alright, then let’s go over and take a look.”
As he spoke, the bodies of those few Foundation Establishment cultivators that they had fixed in mid-air were just turned into powder out of thin air.
“How dare you, how dare you kill my Tong Tian Sect’s cultivators.
Seek death!”
Right at this moment, a furious cry suddenly sounded behind Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Only to see a middle-aged cultivator wearing a long robe, with several Jindan real people, was rapidly killing towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t turn around to take a look.
Just as they heard a sudden roar ring out in the air.
Immediately afterward, an incomparably bespectacled Yuan Land Dragon appeared in front of those cultivators.
Bang!
Without the slightest bit of suspense, with just one strike, the Yuan Earth Dragon slapped all those cultivators who had come this time into a mass of blood mist.
Afterward, it let out a long roar of excitement, and with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan in tow, it swept off in the direction of that Twin Gods State.
Some time later.
Three reclining lights suddenly descended here.
The leader of them was a man with a white face.
His eyes were long and narrow, and his whole body had a cold aura.
This person was the Great Inner Eunuch of the Great Ling Dynasty who had been dispatched here, Yan Zhengying, who possessed the cultivation of an early YuanYing stage.
Beside him were two early YuanYing cultivators from the TongTian Sect.
True Lord Zhongxuan and True Lord Dustless.
At this moment, all three of them were looking at the scene before them, their faces extremely ugly.
Especially True Lord Zhongxuan and True Lord Dustless from the Tongtian Sect.
One must know that the people who had just died, those were all cultivators from their Tongtian Sect.
For the other party to dare to openly kill their Tongtian Sect’s people here, it was obvious that they did not place their Tongtian Sect in their eyes.
“Eunuch Yan ……”
At this moment, True Lord Zhong Xuan raised his eyes to Yan Zhengying and spoke:
“This person dares to openly kill my Tongtian Sect cultivators here, he must be a vicious person.
Next, I still hope that you, Eunuch Yan, will be able to utilize that secret security to help us find that murderer, and afterwards, my TongTian Sect will be grateful.”
