The Demoness Arrives, Shaking Central Province
Boom!
Su Muxue unleashed her full power.
Well, Qi Zi·Fan didn't know whether Su Muxue had unleashed her full power or not, but it was definitely terrifying.
Then, they enveloped themselves in their True Essence and crossed the Boundary River!
Her strength was terrifying; wherever she went, the Ferocious Beast that were originally restless hid and dared not show their faces.
One of them was even blasted into dust by Su Muxue's low-level palm Palm Thunder because it was too slow!
"Zixiao, you must remember this."
"These Ferocious Beast are all brainless!"
"The art of concealing one's abilities is very useful and effective among cultivators, demon cultivators, Demonic Cultivator, and even ghost cultivators."
"But Ferocious Beast beasts have no brains at all; they don't know how to assess the situation or analyze it for themselves."
"If you hide your abilities, they will think you are easy to bully, and a constant stream of troubles will come knocking on your door."
"In the future, in places like the Boundary Sea where there are countless Ferocious Beast, let them be as wild as they can be. Only by frightening them can there be peace."
"I'll remember that, Uncle-Master."
Qi Zi·Fan clicked his tongue in amazement.
Because, in the midst of their conversation, Su Muxue killed several more Ferocious Beast that were as big as small mountains and whose strength far surpassed Large Account of Qi Zixiao!
Unfortunately, it was Ferocious Beast, not Demon Beast.
If Demon Beast of this strength were to be a treasure trove, then it would be a Ferocious Beast in its entirety. But ferocious beasts... they have neither Demon Core nor True Essence, so most of them are of little use and can only be eaten as meat.
Su Muxue naturally looked down on them, and Qi Zi·Fan looked down on them as well...
This flight took almost half a day.
Even at Su Muxue's speed, it would still take her half a day to fly across the river, which shows just how wide the Boundary River truly is...
"Yes, Central Province is just ahead."
Su Muxue kept looking ahead at the endless mountains. "Once we pass through these mountains, we will be able to see those cities, sects, and kingdoms."
"Spiritual energy..."
Qi Zi·Fan carefully sensed it and couldn't help but sigh, "It is indeed more concentrated than in ordinary places in the Eastern Wasteland."
It certainly cannot compare to the Purple Mansion Holy Land.
But what kind of place is the Purple Mansion Holy Land?
They directly occupied the most spiritually abundant area in the entire Eastern Wasteland and established their sect.
But what about this place?
In other words, it's a 'desolate land' that no sect belongs to; no one even bothers to look down on this place!
Compared to other areas of similar size in the Eastern Wasteland, the spiritual energy in the Central Province is noticeably richer and purer.
This alone is enough to explain many things.
Why are the people of the Central Province Plains so arrogant?
Why is it that the Supreme Unity Holy Land, despite not having any of its current Holy Son Saintess, is still able to send out several disciples at the Void Refinement stage, and not even all of them? On the other hand, the Purple Mansion Holy Land only has its Holy Son Saintess who have broken through to the Void Refinement stage.
Spiritual energy!
The spiritual energy is richer and purer, which is naturally more beneficial for cultivation.
Even in such a place, the chances of an ordinary person giving birth to a prodigy are much higher than in the Eastern Wasteland or the Western Wilderness!
Similarly, the chances of creating various elixirs, Spiritual Object, and magical treasures are also higher.
"No wonder they allowed the Boundary Sea to exist..."
Qi Zi·Fan.
"From their perspective, it makes sense," Su Muxue scoffed. "After all, cultivators defy the heavens and fight against fate, so naturally they wouldn't want to share such a wonderful place with everyone."
"But we are the 'oppressed' party, so how can we be willing?"
"It's just that we lack the strength and confidence to win."
"Otherwise, the Seven Great Holy Lands would have already torn off their masks and fought a proper battle to re-determine the ownership of the Central Province!"
Qi Zi·Fan didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but she felt a little emotional.
"Does the dragon slayer become the dragon himself?"
Was Su Muxue's idea wrong?
That's right.
At least from her perspective, and from the perspective of everyone outside of Central Province, it was absolutely right; they even dreamed of 'turning the serfs up and singing their own songs'.
However, from the perspective of the people of Central Province... they absolutely could not allow this to happen.
Just as Su Muxue said, the difference in strength between the two sides is not that great.
If the strength of the four holy lands of the Four Desolations surpasses that of the three holy lands of the Central Province by a significant margin, then this battle will inevitably break out!
By then...
If one side's strength completely surpasses that of the other, then it's alright; perhaps the fight won't be too brutal.
If the fight reaches a stalemate in the end, then we're truly doomed.
I don't know how many people will die.
Moreover, assuming that the serfs successfully turned the tables, then the people who were originally in charge of Central Province would become the new serfs.
Will the new serfs try to regain power and become masters again?
Of course I want to, and I dream about it all the time.
If this goes on and on, wouldn't it go on endlessly? Unless one side is completely wiped out!
Then another question arises.
Even if one side dies out, does that mean there are no other sects or people left in the Four Desolations lands? As they gradually develop, don't they have any ambitions?
Of course it exists!
Thinking about it this way, isn't this an intractable knot?!
"Are you thinking this is a vicious cycle?"
Su Muxue suddenly spoke...
Qi Zi·Fan was taken aback, then nodded slightly. "I do have that idea, but this kind of thing is not something a small cultivator like me can interfere with, is it?"
"Actually... everyone knows about this 'vicious cycle'."
Su Muxue suddenly seemed a little disheartened. "But... the path of cultivation is to go against the heavens and fight against fate."
"If we don't do this, I'm afraid..."
"Enough, enough. It's too early to tell you these things now. Let's go, let's go to the Three Saints City first."
Su Muxue said no more.
But this made Qi Zi·Fan roll her eyes.
I hate people who only say half of what they mean and then stop talking altogether!
And the moment Su Muxue brought Qi Zi·Fan to Central Province...
Among the three holy lands of Central Province, everyone's expression changed drastically!
Within the Supreme Unity Holy Land.
Inside an unassuming house, there is a small model.
Above the sand table was a protective barrier, and the sand table itself contained a topographical map of the entire Central Province...
Beside the sand table, a Daoist priest was dozing off.
Suddenly, the sand table shook, and at the same time, a beam of red light shot straight into the sky from one of the spots!
"Um?!"
The Daoist priest instantly awoke, glanced at the sand table with a somewhat confused expression, and then...
"What?!"
He was startled, and upon closer inspection, his face turned pale. "This... this is?!"
"Not good!"
"Warning barrier alert: This is... an intruder!"
"We must report to the Holy Master quickly!"
This early warning barrier was created at a considerable cost by the Supreme Unity Holy Land. The barrier covers the entire Central Province, but the materials required for this barrier are extremely valuable!
The barrier's use is also very limited; it cannot harm or trap enemies, it can only...
Warning!
The targets of the warnings were few, but each one was a 'scumbag' or a great demon who had caused considerable losses to the Supreme Unity Holy Land!
Simply put, this thing is a blacklist warning device!
An alert will be issued whenever anyone on the blacklist enters Central Province!
In order to keep a close eye on whether those on the blacklist had entered Central Province, they even specially assigned a guard to keep watch at all times.
Now, the guards were deeply shaken!
How long has it been?!
The warning barrier hasn't reacted for thousands of years, yet today it's happening?!
He immediately contacted the Holy Master via the Sound Transmission Jade Talisman talisman.
Upon receiving the news, Tai Yi Holy Master Jiang Yi's gaze sharpened, and in a flash, he appeared near the sand table, intently observing it.
Buzz!
The sand table vibrated, and then the image was magnified.
Immediately afterwards, a virtual figure appeared...
Who else could it be but Su Muxue?
"The Purple Mansion Demoness Su Muxue?!"
Jiang Yi frowned immediately, and for a moment he wanted to curse, "What is she doing in Central Province?!"
He even hoped that the people who broke in were those super villains!
Su Muxue is precisely the person Jiang Yi least wants to see!
Because this thing is a damn Purple Mansion Demoness, well, the previous Purple Mansion Saintess!
Although the Supreme Unity Holy Land is stronger than the Purple Mansion Holy Land, it is still a holy land!
Moreover, as the previous Saintess, how could Su Muxue's strength be weak?
Not only is he very good at fighting, but he's also very fast, and to make matters worse, he's lawless and a con artist!
Sending ordinary people? Even ordinary elders would be easy prey, and might even get beaten up and have all their treasures stolen by that Demoness...
Send someone who can suppress her?
First of all, there are not many people like this to begin with, and most of them are in seclusion.
Even if they are sent out...
Well, that Demoness has an extremely keen sense of smell. Sensing something was wrong, she ran faster than a mouse!
But you can't kill them!
At least the Seven Great Holy Lands are currently on the surface amicable. If they do something wrong, you can go to the Purple Mansion Holy Land to demand an explanation...
Moreover, once they arrived, Mo Daolin would indeed give them an explanation.
That's where the problem lies!
The fact that they will give an explanation means that you cannot kill people at will.
Does Jiang Yi want to kill him?
Of course he wanted to kill her! He even thought about killing Su Muxue more than once when he was young.
Unfortunately, he couldn't be killed! Su the Runner truly lived up to his name.
With my current strength and the Emperor Weapon in hand, I could kill him, yet I cannot!
Kill them? The Purple Mansion Holy Land will retaliate!
Thinking even deeper, the holy lands of the Four Desolations have long coveted the Central Province. The reason they haven't made a move is twofold: firstly, they lack absolute certainty of success, and secondly, they lack a suitable reason...
We are all 'cultivators of immortality,' following the 'righteous path' rather than 'evil and heretical paths,' right?
If you're going to fight, you need to have a reason, right?
You can't just say you're going to take over my territory... that's obviously not going to work.
But if we kill Su Muxue... that would be interesting.
The Purple Mansion Holy Land will be the first to lash out. Who knows, the four holy lands from all directions might put their heads together and say, "Why don't we take this opportunity to rebel?"
And then... they hit it off immediately.
And then?
That would be a disaster!
Central Province wins or loses is unknown, but it will definitely be a big problem!
Therefore, for Jiang Yi and the entire Supreme Unity Holy Land, and even the entire Central Province, Su Muxue is a damn 'cancer'!
Fight? One person can't beat her. Even if you want to teach her a lesson, she'll run faster than anyone else!
Kill? You mustn't!
Unfortunately, this guy is quite cunning, always pulling dirty tricks.
What are we going to do about this?!
Even though Jiang Yi the Holy Master of Central Province, with a high status and boundless glory, he was at his wit's end.
One pit is higher than one mountain, two pits together are better than one causing trouble, hehehehe
