Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 413 - 45 Disappearance of the Black Fog Spiritual World
Chapter 413: Chapter 45 Disappearance of the Black Fog Spiritual World
“The entire Jiang Family must die?”
Hearing this statement, Jiang Dao understood.
The actions of the Taiping Sect were not really aimed at the two dynasties, the real target was the first Dynasty represented by the Jiang Family.
“Indeed, if it were just the two dynasties, there would be no need for such powerful figures to take action!”
He was very clear that he would be suppressed because Huangtian had something bestowed by a powerful being.
Just one item could suppress him, not to mention how incredibly strong the person behind it must be.
However, thinking of what the National Guardian Level strong figures said.
The first Dynasty’s enemy was the Demon Clan—
“Huangtian, your Taiping Sect is fighting for the Human Race, don’t you realize that the person behind you may not be from the Human Race but from the Demon Clan?”
In his view, since it was the opponent of the first Dynasty, then it was mostly likely that powerful being from the Demon Clan.
The Taiping Sect was also supported.
“Hmph, Demon Clan… Although I don’t know what you’ve found out, you surely are not aware of who handled the Memory Modification, right…?”
Huangtian lacked information on the first Dynasty, so there was a lot that was unclear.
But from bits and pieces, some things were still known.
Jiang Dao was speechless.
Caught and confused, wanting to mock Huangtian, he had forgotten this matter.
“Have nothing to say now?”
“Actually, even if there had been no explanation, you would have had to die anyway, Jiang Dao. Your Jiang Family, or to be exact, the Ming, Cang, Wu, and Sun dynasties, did quite a bit in the name of enhancing reputation, slaughtering first and then pacifying… How capable you are.”
The period right after the fall of the Great Zhou was the most chaotic, with many unsolved cases.
Massacres in villages were frequent and the true perpetrators were difficult to identify, so many crimes were attributed to the Demon Clan, when in fact, many were committed by people from the four great dynasties.
“For the so-called reputation, you really are ruthless. Aside from yourselves, you don’t regard others as human at all, do you?”
Huangtian’s voice trembled with anger.
Some things, in fact, could have been avoided at the time.
“Sacrificing those people to preserve many more, isn’t that good?” Jiang Dao’s ideology was deeply ingrained.
Upon hearing this statement, Huangtian suddenly fell silent, and all the anger dissipated.
“Suddenly, I feel there’s no point in discussing this with you.”
Deeply ingrained thoughts would not change or feel any guilt over such matters.
“A public trial then!”
The term public trial was learned from the teacher, and it proved to be quite effective.
As for the others, those who should be killed would be killed, and those who should be captured would be captured.
Thus, the Qian Dynasty compromised and disbanded, and the Ming Dynasty was extinguished.
The war of national extinction ended in less than two months, of which, the time spent traveling accounted for ninety-nine percent.
Moreover, a miracle was created—during this period, the Taiping Army accomplished the war of national extinction without the death of a single soldier.
The news of the extinction of the two dynasties spread quickly and became known to all.
Naturally, the Taiping Army played a huge role in this.
From the fall of the dynasties, the efforts to eradicate the influence of the dynasties, the rumors about the emergence of Masters of Destiny with the establishment of dynasties had already begun.
Yes, the existence of Masters of Destiny in dynasties was turned into mere rumors by the Taiping Sect.
This was the core of eradicating influence; the existence of a dynasty was never the point.
Meanwhile, all records of the dynastic establishment process of families like the Jiang Family and Wu Family were completely destroyed.
Even if a dynasty were to emerge in the future, it would most likely not be established towards becoming a Destiny Dynasty.
Once the news came out, many forces became restless.
“The dynasty model has completely become a thing of the past, and the ultimate winner is the Taiping Sect, how dramatic!”
“I thought it was overreaching, but in reality, they were fully prepared. Where did the Taiping Sect get such formidable strength?”
Breaching borders in a single day was one thing, but then there was the annihilation of nations within days.
This level of power was beyond their imagination.
“Regrets, if I had joined the Taiping Sect before, with my strength, I could at least have been among the upper high ranks, wouldn’t that have been a meteoric rise?”
Some who were glad they hadn’t joined the Taiping Sect before began to regret it. As it turns out, standing on shaky ground, one gains nothing.
Amidst these voices, some sniffed out different information.
“It seems that the Taiping Sect is trying to erase the existence of dynasties, or rather the very existence of past dynasties. They must be planning something big!”
“By using the opportunity to teach reading and writing, turning the existence of Masters of Destiny into rumors, what are they doing? Although I don’t understand how Masters of Destiny are made, it’s apparent from their style that reputation is very important. Is the Taiping Sect against the existence of Masters of Destiny?”
“Not just Masters of Destiny, there’s more to it. What exactly is the Taiping Sect trying to do?”
Most of these voices were from hidden old antiques.
Even with limited information, they could deduce much.
Nobody knew what the Taiping Sect was planning, and some were even secretly thrilled. If there were no Masters of Destiny with almost dimension-reducing strength, then it would be their turn to take the stage.
However, faced with so much skepticism, the Taiping Sect continued unapologetically, showing no signs of establishing a nation but rather calming the people and eliminating the influence of the dynasties.
In the eyes of others, it seemed foolish, just increasing expenses without any apparent benefit.
Mo Yang was talking to Wang Lingwei, not sure if it was just an illusion.
After relinquishing his title as king, Mo Yang seemed much more relaxed, gradually regaining the carefree demeanor of a ranger.
He looked at Wang Lingwei and asked, “What’s the point of all this?”
“I’m not sure, these are all my uncle’s orders. Only he knows what effects they’ll have, right?”
The two of them looked towards the Three Counties at the same time.
Although filled with doubts, as long as Wang Sheng didn’t call a halt, they had to keep going with the task.
Meanwhile, Wang Sheng, who was the focus of everyone in the know, was in the Black Fog Spiritual World.
Since the war of annihilation began, he had been monitoring both the Black Fog Spiritual World and the outside situation.
“After the annihilation, the Black Fog Spiritual World showed no change, which means that merely annihilating a country is clearly insufficient. However, ever since we started to weaken the influence of dynasties, empires, and the Masters of Destiny, things started to change—the Black Fog Spiritual World began to shrink!”
He had been observing all along, so he was aware of even the slightest changes.
“The method is correct, but to completely eradicate the Black Fog Spiritual World will still take some time.”
“Fortunately, with the current pace, it won’t take too long. It seems that it’s not necessary to completely eliminate the empire’s influence in order to erase the Spirit World.”
“One year should be about enough… then let’s wait and see whether the Heavenly Father’s true form or the Black Fog Giant Snake’s true form will appear.”
One year was a short time for Wang Sheng, and he could certainly wait.
Time slowly passed by.
The Taiping Sect still had no intention of founding a nation, continuing to preach, pacify the populace, and punish the wicked.
It seemed that things would continue to develop in this way. Perhaps with the absence of a dynasty’s restrictions, some forces began to reveal themselves.
These forces were mostly sects and family powers that had been severely suppressed.
Without a dynasty’s suppression, the things they did were even more heartless and mad than the dynasty’s.
The Taiping Sect was busy suppressing them everywhere, as they couldn’t allow even more terrible things to arise just after toppling a powerful enemy.
The year passed quickly, and the year 572 of the Great Zhou calendar arrived.
Huangtian looked at the reports that had been sent back, feeling helpless in his heart.
“Without the existence of an empire, it seems that ordinary people’s lives haven’t improved, and might even be worse.”
After all, the empire needed common people.
But the operational mode of sects and family powers was to use a large number of resources to support a few elites.
It wasn’t noticeable before, but once this model developed without restrictions, ordinary people could only become more desperate.
Because only a very few people would protect the common folk.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
This was inconsistent with the ultimate ideals of the Taiping Sect.
Thus, in that year, the Taiping Sect was extremely busy.
“When will it end?” murmured Huangtian, then he shook his head, “Even if the teacher ends the operation, how should the Taiping Sect establish a nation, are we supposed to follow the old path?”
Empires simply maintained commoners because it could bring benefits.
But the Taiping Sect was different. The sect was fine for now, but Huangtian knew that without such similar benefits, if the Taiping Sect were to become a nation, it might become even more terrifying than the empire, because the Taiping Sect was quite similar to those sect powers.
“What path should we take?”
Then, as he wallowed in sorrow, an inexplicable feeling of elation surged within him, the transition between the two emotions coming without any warning.
As a Spirit Cultivator, Huangtian knew this wasn’t normal.
He immediately left his room and then saw others who had come out just like him.
“Do you all feel it too?”
Everyone nodded.
A group of high-ranking members looked serious.
But a few people like Huangtian and Wang Lingwei had a guess.
“Has uncle/teacher finally decided to end it?”
This was the only possibility they could think of.
And Zhu Xiao, who had been cultivating all along, felt it most intensely; she had experienced this kind of elation before.
“This is the feeling of limitations being lifted. What has Wang Sheng done this time?”
Even those who didn’t know the details sensed that something significant might happen—such emotions don’t arise without reason.
At this moment, Wang Sheng, watching the Spiritual World shrink to its limit, knew it was time to leave.
The Black Fog Spiritual World was about to become uninhabitable, and he didn’t know what the consequences would be, so he had to leave.
Shortly after, he returned to the real world.
However, this time upon returning, he saw something different.
In the Void, a vortex seemed to appear.
This vortex was all too familiar to him—it was the core of the Spirit World.
“Can others see it too?”
Wang Sheng observed the others’ expressions; evidently, they couldn’t see anything.
“I wonder if I can see more within the vortex?”
Wang Sheng performed Instant Teleportation to approach the Spirit World’s vortex, but even after teleporting, the distance remained vast.
“Is it because this is the vortex of the Spirit World, existing in the real world but hard to approach by normal means?”
Just as Wang Sheng was considering how to get closer, the Spirit World, which had shrunk to an extreme, underwent a change!
