Chapter 598: Destiny, Blood (4)
Yuanlingtian, chaos.
Unprecedented chaos!
There were flames of war everywhere, countless killings, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and bones everywhere.
It was different from the previous conflict between the major sects and forces caused by Wanxiang’s attack on the Fengzhuo Tower and the Zhuoying Pavilion and the spread of various private information. The previous chaotic conflict caused by Wanxiang was basically a personal grudge, basically a conflict between two sects.
Personal grudges... are unlikely to trigger a desperate duel between sects. The top leaders of both sides are not fools. Even if the son of the sect leader was killed by the other side, even if the concubine of the supreme elder was harmed by the other side, even if a certain saint girl was harmed by someone, a certain saint son was taken advantage of by someone... both sides will be cautious and limit the conflict within a controllable range.
For the sake of a son, a concubine, a saint girl, and a holy son, tens of thousands of people were killed or injured. This is the limit. There is no need to start a larger-scale conflict because of personal grudges.
As long as you gain the upper hand, extract sufficient compensation from the other party, and save face, everything can return to a calm, harmonious and peaceful situation.
It was even more different from the catastrophe thirty thousand years ago. Although that catastrophe was terrifying and hopeless, the entire cultivation world of Yuanlingtian worked together to resist the crazy attack of Jishengtian.
In that catastrophe, even though the Yuanlingtian cultivation world had fallen into despair, there was still the brilliance of humanity, there was still justice and righteousness, there was still family affection, friendship, and love, and there was still the friendship of mutual rescue and mutual assistance among fellow disciples.
But this time, because of the so-called "destiny" of the three religions, six sects and eighteen schools, the chaos stirred up by Yuan Lingtian was suffocating and desperate, making all the practitioners completely tear off the mask called "benevolence, righteousness and morality", releasing the deepest darkness and the most negative energy in their hearts, turning all the practitioners except the disciples of the three religions into complete monsters.
For a cultivator, twenty-four pieces of currency are too hard to even wipe his butt with.
The cost of making six gold medals was only 18 kilograms of gold.
The total cost of eighteen silver medals is only fifty-four kilograms of silver.
This amount of worldly money, in the world of cultivation, cannot even buy a slightly better quality Qi-regenerating pill, but it triggered the most horrific chaos in Yuanlingtian's history!
There is no justice, no morality, no benevolence, and no restraint.
Fight, kill, cause chaos, enemies are everywhere in sight... Even people from the same school, clan, or family members living in the same yard may turn from friends and relatives into sworn enemies because of various interests!
Betrayal, husband and wife turn against each other, brothers stab each other, and fathers and sons sever ties.
Twenty-four broken signs, twenty-four 'personas'.
As long as our sect can occupy one of them, it will become one of the future overlords with a lofty status.
If not... they would have been at the mercy of others, and even three years later, they would have been wiped out by two great Heavenly Realm masters!
Everyone wants to be the overlord.
And it’s not just a matter of becoming the overlord—it’s a get-out-of-jail-free card!
If you have one of these twenty-four broken signs, you can survive!
Without this shabby sign, you will definitely die!
A sect that is originally strong enough would naturally want to become one of the six sects and eighteen schools.
The sects that were originally not strong enough also wanted to make a desperate attempt to try for a one in a million chance.
Except for those small sects and families that are too weak, too small and have no ability to compete for these twenty-four broken signs, they have no choice but to become the targets of annexation by other big forces. Other sects, big and small, are all completely crazy for these broken signs!
The Barbarian King Palace, which obtained the first gold medal, immediately left Jianmen... No, it immediately left the mountain gate of 'Dajue Temple' which had become the foundation of Buddhism, and hurried back to its own mountain gate.
Just when the 'Dajue Temple' was under construction and a new mountain gate was being built, the Barbarian King Palace gathered all its forces and began to expand outward frantically!
The Barbarian King Palace... Relying on blood inheritance, it is the strongest physical cultivation sect in Yuanlingtian. This sect, from top to bottom, rarely uses the brain, and is best at using muscles and swords to solve problems. After getting the gold medal symbolizing one of the six sects, the top leaders of the Barbarian King Palace have always believed that if they want to become one of the six sects, they must have a larger territory, more disciples, and more abundant cultivation resources!
And where do these things come from?
Just one word - 'grab'!
Just like what Master Fahai said, "Those who follow me will prosper, those who go against me will perish." This statement is overbearing, but it is very consistent with the cognition of the violent and reckless men in the Barbarian King Hall. As long as they can create a large enough territory, as long as they can win over enough masters, as long as they can develop enough disciples, the Barbarian King Hall will naturally become one of the six sects!
The troops were divided into eighteen groups, each of which was commanded by at least two supreme elders at the half-step heavenly realm. The Barbarian King Palace emptied the sect's resources and began a frantic attack!
While the surrounding forces, both large and small, were unable to react, and before they had time to close the void teleportation array in their own territories, the Barbarian King Palace launched a massive attack. In just three months, it destroyed seventy-two small and medium-sized sects, exterminated three hundred and seven families of cultivators, killed tens of millions of cultivators of all ranks, and annexed ninety-seven forces, both large and small!
The madness of the Barbarian King's Palace scared all the neighboring forces, big and small. A large number of small fish and shrimps came madly to surrender, crying and shouting, abandoning the inheritance left by their ancestors, and becoming the disciples of the Barbarian King's Palace.
The power of the Barbarian King Palace expanded rapidly like a snowball. Three months later, their directly-administered territory had expanded fifty times compared to before, and the number of their disciples had soared a hundred times.
The majestic and proud Barbarian King's Palace looks around with an air of majesty that no one in the world dares to challenge.
At this time, seven of the former top 100 sects near the Barbarian King's Palace gathered nearly a thousand large and small sects and families, and spent a huge amount of money to hire a large number of independent cultivators, gathering nearly eight hundred half-step heavenly beings. They took advantage of the rapid expansion of the Barbarian King's Palace, which was bloated and had poor internal command, and launched a ruthless attack!
Inside the Barbarian King Palace, first the newly merged forces of varying sizes turned against the sect, then the internal branches that had always been at odds with the current Palace Master betrayed the sect, and even the neutral elders were heavily bribed...
The Barbarian King 's Palace, which had just reached the top and had not had the chance to taste the wonderful feeling of standing on the peak and overlooking all living beings, collapsed within just half a month. All the masters of the head sect, all the direct descendants, and all the true disciples were killed without a single survivor!
The gold medal in the hands of the Barbarian King Palace was seized by the Xuanji Sect led by the seven-member coalition!
On the night when the gate of the Barbarian King's Palace was destroyed, the coalition forces held a grand celebration banquet. At the banquet, the four major sects in the coalition colluded with the Curse Gu Sect and used poison and witchcraft on a large scale, killing and severely injuring countless monks.
The Xuanji Sect had just received the gold medal, and before it had time to warm up, the headmaster who hosted the celebration banquet was killed by the seven elders of the Curse Gu Sect, who spent their own life essence and blood, sacrificed hundreds of millions of lives, and cast an extremely vicious curse. The witch curse followed the bloodline all the way, and all the direct descendants of the Xuanji Sect's most powerful headmaster died overnight!
Logically, the Xuanji Sect practices formations to gain entry into the sect, and the important places of the sect are guarded by various wonderful formations. This is especially true of the ancestral land of the leader's lineage, which is heavily restricted. Countless restrictions almost isolate the ancestral land into a small world. No matter how powerful the witchcraft spell is, it cannot invade it and harm the bloodline clansmen hiding in the ancestral land!
However, in the Xuanji Sect, there was also a supreme elder who was persuaded by someone and received an unknown amount of benefits. He secretly took action and quietly opened a small gap in the protective formation of the ancestral land of the sect leader!
Just a tiny gap allowed the horrific witchcraft spell to suddenly attack and kill all the descendants of the headmaster who were caught off guard.
However, the Zhu Gu Cult was unable to snatch the gold medal.
When they gathered the four major sects in the coalition and fought against the other three sects headed by Xuanji Sect, the White Bone Lady of the Thousand Corpse Cave in the Shattered Soul Abyss, who was as famous as Wu Yigong in the past, suddenly appeared among the evil demons in Yuanlingtian. She gathered thirty-seven famous evil demon giants in Yuanlingtian and the top masters of thirty-seven evil sects, and launched a surprise attack.
Mrs. Bai Gu was as beautiful as a flower, but she was extremely cruel.
As soon as she appeared, she directly detonated her own nine life-saving treasures, indiscriminately injuring the monks of both sides in the fierce battle. She also robbed the gold medal along with a group of evil demons and killed a large number of coalition masters.
The Curse Gu Cult was furious and tried their best to fight to the death with Madam Bai Gu. However, they did not expect that three of their own supreme elders were Madam Bai Gu's mistresses for many years. They were secretly plotted against by Madam Bai Gu and their lives were not in their control. They informed Madam Bai Gu of all the arrangements of the Curse Gu Cult!
The plan was leaked, and the top leaders of the Curse Gu Cult were ambushed by evil demons, causing heavy casualties!
Madam Bai Gu took the opportunity to announce that she would officially establish a sect in the Yuan Ling Tian cultivation world and establish the 'Baikon Holy Sect', which would be one of the six sects!
When the Holy White Bone Sect was founded, all the surrounding major sects suffered heavy losses and were severely damaged. For a time, they were completely unable to attack and could only curse her in frustration, but they were completely helpless.
The gold medal obtained by the Holy Bones Sect was relatively smooth.
The other gold and silver medalists were killed in a bloody massacre with piles of corpses.
Especially one of the silver medals. When Lu Yi threw it out, he deliberately chose an unlucky person whose sect power was neither good nor bad. After he got the silver medal and returned to the mountain gate, within two days, the sect gate was broken into and the silver medal was robbed.
This silver medal seemed to be cursed. The family that stole the silver medal was not happy for even three days before they were caught up by nearby forces of all sizes, smelling the scent. In a fierce battle, they were wiped out.
Thus, this legendary silver medal changed forty-nine owners in just six months... Forty-nine forces only kept the silver medal for five days at most before it was destroyed by powerful enemies who came after hearing the news.
There is no reason, no hatred, no explanation, and no prior exchange or communication.
Holding the gold and silver medals of six sects and eighteen schools, this is the original sin!
You have obtained these gold and silver medals, but you cannot withstand the siege of the surrounding forces, and your entire family will surely be exterminated.
No chickens or dogs are left, not even an inch of grass grows.
In less than a year, the total number of forces, big and small, in the entire Yuanlingtian has been reduced by nearly half!
