Chapter 924: Chapter 924: Unifying the Realm of Reincarnation
"Run, quickly!" Nian Ben shouted.
"Where do you think you\'re going?" the Clay Bodhisattva said coldly.
An endless sea of blood surged forth, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly. The two ancient immortals flickered and vanished from their original positions, but the miasma of trouble engulfed them, leaving no escape.
The Clay Bodhisattva\'s pupils contracted, and with another incantation, a transparent seal reappeared in the void.
"Boom———!"
A thunderous explosion echoed as a massive hole was blasted through the miasma and the sea of blood, allowing the two bloodied immortals to escape.
Having witnessed the fate of the first ancient immortal, the two were much more cautious. Though severely wounded, they managed to flee.
From now on, Da Zeng would become the deepest shadow in Nian Ben\'s heart. Too terrifying!
The two ancient immortals fled at an incredibly fast speed, beyond the reach of ordinary people.
With a wave of his hand, the Clay Bodhisattva made the endless miasma recede into the void. The sky cleared.
The Clay Bodhisattva swayed as he returned to the front of the Immortal Hall.
"Sage King, I failed to detain the two of them. Please forgive me," the Clay Bodhisattva said solemnly.
"One dead, two injured—you\'ve done well," Zhong Shan nodded.
"Yes."
"Ten Halls? The Sixth Hall has opened? What did Nian Ben mean by that?" Zhong Shan asked, puzzled, looking at the Clay Bodhisattva.
"Many records about the Hall of Reincarnation have been lost. Though shrouded in mystery, I managed to uncover a small part. According to the information from my master, the ten halls form a unified system. If all ten halls open, a great change will occur in the underworld. From Nian Ben\'s words, it seems five halls have already opened. If the remaining four open, a cataclysm will follow," the Clay Bodhisattva explained respectfully.
"A cataclysm?" Zhong Shan frowned.
"Yes."
"In that case, you will oversee the Hall of Reincarnation as the headquarters of Da Zeng\'s Celestial Observatory in the underworld," Zhong Shan declared solemnly.
"Thank you, Sage King!" The Clay Bodhisattva was ecstatic.
He had long desired this position but hadn\'t known how to ask. Now, with the Sage King\'s decree, he felt a surge of excitement.
"Xiao Wang!" Zhong Shan called.
"At your service!" Xiao Wang immediately stepped forward.
"The south is leaderless. It\'s time to consolidate it all. I give you four years," Zhong Shan said solemnly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xiao Wang responded promptly.
The southern cities had long been infiltrated by Da Zeng\'s people under Wang Jingwen\'s orders. Consolidation was now a mere formality, with only a few cities needing to be taken by force. With their superior numbers and the enemy\'s lack of leadership, four years would be ample time.
Nian Ben and the ancient immortal in the purple robe flew swiftly towards the Heavenly Gift Mansion.
Along the way, Nian Ben\'s face was filled with anger and frustration. They had been defeated, outmaneuvered by Zhong Shan once again.
The Hall of Reincarnation? His subordinate had become an emissary of the Hall of Reincarnation?
Both were gravely injured. The impact of the Seal of Reincarnation was terrifying. The first ancient immortal had been killed instantly, and though they had withstood the seal, their internal injuries were severe.
Days later, the two were nearing the Heavenly Gift Mansion.
"The Seal of Reincarnation—you absorbed most of its power, and now your injuries are worse?" Nian Ben asked, offering several pills to the ancient immortal in the purple robe beside him.
The ancient immortal\'s face flushed with a painful red. His injuries were severe.
"The power of the Reincarnation Seal is too overwhelming. Over the past few days, my injuries have not healed at all; they seem to be getting worse! I need to find a place to retreat and expel the seal\'s power from my body," the purple-robed man said.
"We\'re almost at the Heavenly Gift Mansion!" Nian Ben replied.
Just as Nian Ben finished speaking, he suddenly stopped in mid-air, noticing that the flags of the Heavenly Gift Mansion had changed.
Da Zeng?
At the entrance of the Heavenly Gift Mansion stood a blue-robed man, holding a giant bow and aiming an arrow at the two in the sky.
"Whoosh!"
An arrow was released, causing the void to tremble as it passed.
"Boom!"
In front of Nian Ben, the purple-robed ancient immortal\'s body was half-shattered by the explosion.
The Heavenly Gift Mansion had been occupied? Luo Xingchen?
Nian Ben was horrified. Without a second thought for the last ancient immortal, he fled in a flash.
Five days later, at the southern edge of the Reincarnation Territory, Nian Ben stood on the sea, staring blankly at the Reincarnation Territory with a face full of sorrow.
It\'s gone. Everything is gone.
The vast power of the Heavenly Gift Mansion had completely collapsed in just a few years?
From now on, the Reincarnation Territory would be entirely under Da Zeng\'s control.
"Roar———!"
Unwillingness, resentment, sorrow, and fear—all these negative emotions enveloped Nian Ben. Yet, no amount of emotion could turn back time.
With one last hateful glance at the Reincarnation Territory, Nian Ben gritted his teeth and turned south, flying swiftly towards the Wuxiang Territory. He knew that upon his return, he would face endless ridicule. But if he didn\'t go back, this shame would never be erased.
Nian Ben left, and in an instant, eighty percent of the southern land of the Reincarnation Territory bore the name of Zhong.
The forces surrounding Da Zeng in the north seemed to be in a dreamlike state. Originally, they had waited for a collision between Da Zeng and the Heavenly Gift Mansion, hoping to benefit from the chaos. But now, in the blink of an eye, truly in the blink of an eye, the power of the Heavenly Gift Mansion had completely vanished.
In a celestial court hall, a ruler smashed a jade slip in anger, and the gathered ministers bowed their heads in silence.
"What kind of intelligence is this? The southern part of the Reincarnation Territory has fallen? Nonsense, this is the most laughable false report I\'ve heard in tens of thousands of years. Do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?" the ruler roared.
An elderly minister knelt below.
"Sire, it\'s true. Da Zeng has acted decisively and swiftly. In just a few years, they have indeed taken the south!" the minister said with concern.
"I don\'t believe it. Deceiving the emperor—how dare you deceive the emperor? Guards, take him out and execute him!" the ruler shouted in rage.
"Spare me, sire! I speak the truth!" the old minister pleaded.
But the ruler, in his fury, waved his hand, and the old minister was dragged out to be executed.
Similar scenes unfolded in other courts. It was too sudden. Da Zeng was too terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Gift Mansion was gone?
Da Zeng had made a powerful move, swiftly reclaiming the power of the Heavenly Gift Mansion. The news shocked the entire Reincarnation World.
Almost everyone was incredulous at the news. Barbarians from a small world? Could there really be such powerful barbarians?
Da Zeng had conquered the majority of the Reincarnation Territory and was continually consolidating its power. All surrounding dynasties were on edge, and even the major sacred grounds were now tense.
Two years later.
The Manggu Sacred Ground, along with two other sacred grounds and a heavenly dynasty, announced their willingness to join Da Zeng and bow in submission.
This news came too suddenly.
Submit?
No one knew that this was a scheme orchestrated by Yi Yan and the Manggu Sacred Ground, even enticing three other forces. But that was unimportant; the important thing was that this seemed like a signal. Soon, several other sacred grounds announced their allegiance to the Ming Sect. Another heavenly dynasty joined Da Zeng.
The ambition of the Da Zeng Holy Court was clear. Unify the Reincarnation Territory?
Struggling?
After Zhao Suoxiang led an army to forcefully subdue a heavenly dynasty, the situation became even clearer.
Of the remaining ten heavenly dynasties, three chose to leave the Reincarnation Territory, three submitted to Da Zeng, and four resisted but were utterly destroyed by Da Zeng\'s thunderous means.
Thus, in the 140th year since the creation of the world, the underworld Da Zeng, with an incredibly terrifying momentum, completely unified the Reincarnation Territory.
The Da Zeng Holy Court had officially established itself in the underworld.
This momentum was unimaginable, a ferocity never seen before. In the Reincarnation Territory, almost everyone was in awe.
Even though the major powers in the Reincarnation Territory were few, this was still extraordinary!
Countless heavenly dynasties had fought for tens of thousands of years, yet none had achieved what Da Zeng did in just 140 years. Many had predicted the fall of Da Zeng, but no one had imagined that not only did Da Zeng survive, it unified the world in an instant!
Countless people revered the Da Zeng Sage King. Such a sage king was the true master of the world.
Many people rushed to join Da Zeng, to be part of this powerful force.
With Da Zeng unified, the sea of luck over Changjing surged continuously. Countless golden dragons of luck circled, looking extremely majestic.
In the yang world, in the Nine-Tailed Princess\'s Mansion of the Taichu Holy Court.
Zhong Shan sat in the courtyard of the Nine-Tailed Princess\'s Mansion, reviewing the information collected over the years, his brow deeply furrowed.
Soon, the Nine-Tailed Princess and Su Afo came to Zhong Shan\'s courtyard.
"Zhong Shan, what\'s wrong? You\'ve been frowning these past few days," Su Afo asked, puzzled.
Zhong Shan handed over a list.
The Nine-Tailed Princess also sat down and picked up a register in front of Zhong Shan.
"Great Qin, Ying? What does this mean? You\'ve listed it at the top!" the Nine-Tailed Princess asked, puzzled.
"The list in Afo\'s hand is of those who have already arrived in the Fengzhong Territory. The list in your hand is my speculation of those who might come," Zhong Shan sighed.
"So many people? I\'ve heard my grandfather mention it recently, saying that a large number of strong individuals are gathering from all directions. It seems related to the Snake Queen\'s Dojo?" Su Afo said.
"The Snake Queen\'s Dojo, the burial ground of Nuwa! Someone deliberately released the news, causing chaos in the Fengzhong Territory," Zhong Shan said.
"Snake Queen\'s Dojo? Nuwa\'s burial ground? You mentioned it before, but besides us, who else knows?" the Nine-Tailed Princess frowned.
"Who else could it be?" Zhong Shan sneered.
"Simake Qing?" Su Afo and the Nine-Tailed Princess said in unison.
"Sage Mozi would never leak it, only Simake Qing. Over a hundred years, Simake Qing has spread the news worldwide. His plot is not small," Zhong Shan said, frowning.
"A plot?" Su Afo was slightly startled.
"Yes. This event is known worldwide now, attracting countless strong individuals. It\'s not just about the Snake Queen\'s Dojo anymore. Perhaps the entire Fengzhong Territory will undergo a major reshuffle!" Zhong Shan said with certainty.
Using Nuwa\'s burial ground to incite chaos in the Fengzhong Territory? Perhaps this was the moment for Da Zeng to rise in the yang world. Zhong Shan felt a surge of excitement.
