Witch Wind

Chapter 298 Dirty Human Heart (Part )

Great Reef Continent.

The sky was filled with sand and the ground was covered with desert. The ground was a strange reddish-brown color. It was obvious that there was a huge high-grade metal mine underground, which caused this kind of barren and strangely colored landform.

This land was located southwest of the West Continent. Even with the most advanced sailing warships at the time, sailing at full speed, day and night, it would take a year and a half to reach it. After the beginning of the crazy Age of Exploration, the Far West Hundred Kingdoms were discovered by those crazy seafaring explorers nearly twenty years later.

This continent is roughly in the shape of an oval leaf. Because there are large reefs protruding from the sea on the northeast side of the land, it looks like a black castle standing on the sea from a distance, like the relics of gods and demons. Therefore, sailors call it the Great Barrier Reef.

After that, 'Great Barrier Reef' became the code name for this piece of land.

Because it is too barren, no matter how large the reserves of metal ore on the continent are or how high the grade is, it is not worth mining and transporting because the sea route is too far away - the cost is too high. Therefore, after many years, this land has not been properly named, and no country in the Far West has taken a serious look at it.

Only the Kingdom of England, out of its inherent greed and its soul-stirring admiration for the land, established a third-level colonial governor here more than 20 years ago, and sent several noble dandies who had committed dirty deeds at home, along with a colonial army composed of a group of ruffians, as well as a large number of criminals and poor people, to this place to garrison after great hardships, in order to declare that this was the former territory of the Kingdom of England.

Over the past twenty years, the British people have occasionally exiled some nobles and officials who have committed crimes, as well as some extremely vicious criminals, to the Great Reef Fortress continent. Gradually, dozens of towns of decent size have been formed in some places on this land where some shrubs and wastelands have barely grown.

"Damn it...Xing Tianli!"

"Is this a place where people can stay?"

"Even if these lowly creatures managed to survive in this damn place...how can we survive?"

On top of a solitary giant rock that is completely red, more than three hundred feet high and more than two hundred miles in radius, Sophie and Marceau, wearing tight battle skirts, armor, scimitars and rapiers at their waists, and slender bows and arrows that look like works of art on their backs, look out at the barren and desolate scene around them in exasperation.

Barren land.

Blinding scarlet.

Fortunately, there is abundant groundwater under the Great Reef Fortress Continent. In many sunken basins, as long as a well is dug, spring water can spray up to dozens of feet high. These self-flowing wells have become the source of life for those exiles of the Yingjishi. Under the nourishment of the self-flowing wells, grasslands have also formed on the barren land.

However, the land was too barren. Even with enough water, the grass grew dry and short, looking malnourished. Dry grass naturally could not feed any fat livestock. The cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock wandering on the grassland all looked weak, pale and skinny.

Dozens of miles away from the solitary boulder named "Destiny", in the middle of a small basin, there is a town with a population of about 30,000 people surrounded by a circle of earthen walls.

There were constant "bang bang" sounds as the town's militia, lying behind the protective wall, used their outdated flintlock rifles to fight a group of natives who were shouting "yo yo" in a fierce battle.

The British government would not equip these unfortunate exiles with very good weapons. Even in the Western Continent, the sky was full of fighter planes, airships and spaceships were running around, heavy tanks were bombarding the land, and aircraft carriers and battleships were ramming the sea... In this almost forgotten continent, flintlock rifles and matchlock rifles were still synonymous with the most advanced technology.

This old-fashioned muzzle-loading rifle had certain advantages over the crossbows in the hands of the natives who only had a small piece of rabbit skin wrapped around their waists, as well as all kinds of strange slings and boomerangs, but the advantages were not great.

Round lead bullets flew everywhere. It took probably hundreds of gunshots before one of the natives groaned, blood spurted from somewhere on his body, and he fell heavily to the ground, howling in pain.

Behind the protective wall, from time to time, some unlucky militiamen would just show their heads and be hit on the forehead by pebbles thrown by slingshots. Blood spurted out on the spot, their skulls caved in, and they fell to the ground without a sound.

Some militiamen were even hit by the bows and arrows of the natives. The arrows of these natives were laced with a neurotoxin secreted by a local plant, which was so toxic that it killed people instantly. Any exile who was hit would become stiff all over and fall to the ground with foam at the mouth in just two breaths, and there was no value in saving him.

Xingyue knelt on one knee on the ground, watching the war between the exiles and the natives with interest.

She looked at it for a long time before she said quietly, "Don't you think this is like the war between us and those damned mechanical aliens? Our homeland was invaded by outsiders, and we used simple bows and swords to attack their heavy armor and energy shields... We used our thin armor to withstand their crushing technological weapons."

Maso took out a thin cigarette, lit it, and passed it to Xingyue's lips, saying sarcastically, "So, you pity these ugly, ignorant, smelly, dirty natives?"

Xingyue held a cigarette in her mouth, and wisps of blue-purple smoke came out of the dark blue tobacco. She took a deep breath, and the smoke that came out of her mouth had a rich floral fragrance, and there were also a few tiny light spots like diamonds and stars twinkling in the smoke.

Xingyue was cheered up and laughed, "Pity? No, they are such good slaves! Although this continent is barren, there are tens of billions of such natives. They are such good slaves!"

Xingyue smiled charmingly.

What Xing Tianli agreed to, and what they requested, was that the number of people whose tribesmen would migrate from their hometown to Tailan Star would be no more than 300 million.

Three hundred million people are too few for the Great Reef Continent.

Moreover, they were used to a life of luxury, they were used to having food and clothes provided for them. In this world, they could not do everything by themselves. They had to raise a large number of lower-class races as slaves, just like in their hometown.

These tens of billions of indigenous people are the best candidates for slaves.

"It's too desolate. Too barren." Sophie sighed heavily.

"But the power of our race is to transform the barren continent into fertile land, to make jungles and grasslands cover the entire earth, and to make streams and rivers flow freely and wantonly on the earth." Xingyue stood up and opened her arms. "Although it is difficult, to make this continent a new place under the power of the Supreme Being, this is exactly why we came here!"

Several miles away, dozens of men and women, dressed in different styles, some primitive, some luxurious, some elegant, some graceful, stood in groups of two or three, separated from each other, looking coldly at Xingyue who was shouting loudly.

They are the "supervisors" from the three ancient families.

Xingyue and others came to survey the continent that Xing Tianli promised them to migrate and settle. The three ancient families naturally had to send elite forces to accompany them - one reason was to prevent these guys from secretly acting. If trillions of alien races suddenly migrated from another world, wouldn't that cause chaos?

The second is to strictly prevent anyone from having secret relations with these foreign women.

What if one of the three ancient families, or even one of the aristocratic families, suddenly took out a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry and asked these women to set up an altar and offer sacrifices to that great and inexplicable existence?

If one of the three ancient families, or even one of the aristocratic families, suddenly obtained three or five innate spiritual materials as huge and powerful as the three-hundred-foot-long green wood in Xing Tianli's hand - the strength of that family suddenly soared, which would definitely not be a good thing for other forces.

Therefore, these people were on high alert all the way and never left Xingyue and the others' side.

Hearing Xingyue's yelling, the elites of the three ancient families all laughed secretly - Xing Tianli knew how to control people. There were countless fertile continents on Tailan Star, but he deliberately chose such a remote place for them.

Hehe, they want to transform this continent?
It’s the Dharma Ending Age... Even though the source of power for Xingyue and the others is completely different from that of the cultivators from the three ancient families, given the current environment, it is extremely difficult to use any supernatural power.

Want to give the Great Reef a makeover?

Haha, you want to completely transform this barren landmass, which is 15 times the size of Black Borneo, into a paradise with singing birds and blooming flowers?
Tsk, it’s not impossible to negotiate. As long as they are willing to set up an altar and help them negotiate some conditions with that unknown being, he can not only bestow innate spiritual materials with green wood attributes, but also some elixirs and magical drugs that can increase lifespan and even improve cultivation. Those old antiques hidden in the bottom of the box of the three ancient families can also be put to use!

To transform a continent in this Dharma-Ending Age is extremely difficult, even for those old antiques, and it may even require painstaking efforts - but as long as the benefits are sufficient, what can't be negotiated?

Xingyue was expressing her deep emotion when a handsome man from the royal family of the Great Zhou, wearing a black silk robe with two white dragons embroidered on the left and right sleeves, a tall crown on his head, dragon-stepping cloud boots on his feet, and an ancient-style sword on his waist, walked towards Xingyue step by step with a smile.

"Miss Xingyue, I am King Ji Chu, the younger brother of the current King Zhou."

"My Great Zhou, with the will of heaven and the gift of the Emperor of Heaven, has preserved a fragment of the ancient sacred tree Jianmu... This treasure has the power to change the world, it is incredible..." From the side, a man wearing dragon skin armor, with his chest exposed, a candle dragon totem vaguely visible on his hairy chest, more than 12 feet tall, carrying a thick mace, suddenly interrupted Ji Chu's words: "You kid from the Ji family, hey, with the will of heaven? Are you a dog for the Heavenly Court?"

"During the Yu, Xia and Shang dynasties, the human race was honored and the rulers were all called 'Human Emperors'... Only your Great Zhou started calling itself 'Son of Heaven'! Hehe, Son of Heaven of Zhou, Son of Heaven of Zhou... Son of Heaven? How does it feel to kneel down and acknowledge your father?"

"You treat the rubbish that people left behind as treasures?"

"You have the nerve to use such trash to fool a young lady? Where's your face?" The big man strode towards Xingyue and said in a loud voice, "Madam Xingyue, don't bother with this pale-faced grandson. How can such a delicate guy have the nerve to call himself a 'man'?"

"I am different. I am Dayu, the Zhulong clan, and the Zhulong Meng (meng). That's me!"

"Our elders said..."

Before Zhu Longmeng could finish his words, a flash of sword light came from the side. It was as clear as water, as cold as a glacier, and as sharp as a falling star from the sky. It pierced Zhu Longmeng's weak spot with a chilling murderous intent.

Ji Chu drew his sword silently, and a flash of sword light pierced Zhu Long Meng.

To be honest, Zhulong Meng’s curse was unpleasant to listen to.

It would be fine to just scold Ji Chu, but he even scolded all the ancestors of the Great Zhou Dynasty. How could he not fight with all his might?

Zhu Longmeng laughed wildly, he opened his arms and exposed his chest - with a "ding" sound, the immortal sword in Ji Chu's hand, which was covered with water ripples and dotted with strange shapes, with a faint dragon-shaped shadow looming, and with a chilling sword light that soared into the sky, did not even pierce Zhu Longmeng's skin, but only caused a few sparks.

With a muffled groan, Ji Chu used too much force and his fair and slender wrist was dislocated by the recoil force. His wrist was deformed, and the fairy sword bounced back with a tremor, circling, making a continuous "clang" sound, and hovered beside Ji Chu.

Ji Chu looked at Zhulong Meng as if he had seen a ghost.

Zhulong laughed strangely, and the black hair on his chest emitted a faint golden light. Under the black hair, the ferocious and vicious Zhulong totem suddenly spurted out golden-red blood light. Especially, his two eyes slowly opened, and the dark blood light spurted out more than ten feet away, illuminating the area within a hundred miles with a sea of ​​blood.

"You guys, Da Zhou... Hey."

"When you destroyed the Shang Dynasty, didn't you take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Shang Dynasty was away and had no time to come back for help, and beat that idiot King Zhou of Shang to death by burning the Lutai?" Zhu Longmeng shook his head gently, rubbing the muscles and bones of his neck, making a loud "bang bang" sound like a cannon roaring: "Those bastards of the Shang Dynasty really brought shame to my Wu clan... It's time for you young bastards to truly understand what a real... Master Wu is!"

Zhu Longmeng roared, and his right arm suddenly grew larger. The thickness and palm size of his arm did not change, but his arm strangely grew to more than ten feet long, and he slapped Ji Chu in the face.

Ji Chu roared angrily. On the jade belt around his waist, dozens of exquisite jade rings, jade pendants, jade beads, jade seals, and even a jade seal with a dragon button all emitted dazzling light. The various ornaments were emitting fairy light, and the layers of light condensed into a colorful, extremely gorgeous light tower that protected him firmly in the center.

The light in the light column was surging and intertwining, and it actually faintly intertwined to form a statue of the angry Vajra King with gaping eyes in red lotus!

This Ji Chu, flying with a sword, displayed the methods of a Taoist swordsman, but his body protection technique was actually a solid Buddhist magical power - the inheritance of each of the three ancient families was truly "all-encompassing" and extremely chaotic.

However, the gap in cultivation is too big.

Zhu Longmeng blasted out with his palm, and the black and white witch light in his palm flickered. A sense of vicissitudes of life and death, the rotation of day and night came over him. Ji Chu's body protection magic power was shattered with a loud bang.

Zhu Longmeng's palm was about to land on Ji Chu's face, but he suddenly stopped. His palm was like a spring breeze, gently touching Ji Chu's fair little face: "Hey, little bastard, remember your uncle Meng's name... From now on, when the ancestors are talking, you young guys, you have to shut up and just listen!"

This is Liwei.

Purely to establish authority.

Ji Chu was so angry that his face turned pale, but he didn't move at all.

Behind him, three royal elders of the Great Zhou stepped forward, their swords on their waists roaring, and the sharp sword energy rushed straight into the sky, slicing the clouds in the sky into pieces. A white-haired old man shouted, "Who are you, sir?"

Such cultivation.

He dared to withstand Ji Chu's almost sneak attack - although Ji Chu's cultivation was not very good, his sword, which was a protective and demon-suppressing immortal sword, was a golden immortal weapon that the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty had spent a huge amount of money to preserve for six hundred years!

Your physical body was able to withstand a blow from the Golden Immortal Sword without any damage. Even if you, Zhu Longmeng, are a member of the Zhulong clan, the oldest bloodline of the Wu family in the Dayu Dynasty among the three ancient families, in this damn Dharma Ending Age, this is too outrageous - Zhu Longmeng, should definitely be a guy dubbed as an 'old antique' or an 'immortal'!
Zhulong laughed strangely, and as he was laughing, suddenly everyone looked up and looked towards the northeast.

Northeast direction, direction of western land.

The colorful rays of light rushed like a mighty river, heading straight towards this side.

Zhu Longmeng and several elders with the highest cultivation among the three ancient families present saw that in the extremely far horizon, there were several space cracks that were rapidly expanding and growing. They were invisible to the naked eye, but they could clearly see a giant earth dragon of an incredibly huge size struggling, and slowly and windingly swam over from the other end of the world channel with an earth-shaking dragon roar.

There is even a giant earth dragon that is over 8,000 miles long and has completely entered this world.

This giant earth dragon, which could be described as 'tiny' in size, was spewing out primordial Qi all over its body, with colorful mist surrounding its entire body. It was extremely agile, and with tremendous momentum, it was rolling and tumbling towards this direction.

Above the Great Reef Fortress Continent, wisps of faint colorful clouds condensed out of thin air.

Strands of light descended from the sky, warm as apricot blossoms and spring rain, clearly visible to the naked eye, half-liquid, half-misty primordial Qi gushing down.

Everyone took a deep breath at the same time, and each of them had a distorted expression of extreme horror yet extreme surprise.

Zhulongmeng suddenly knelt on the ground, raised his hands high, and followed the most ancient witch clan etiquette, worshiping the heaven and earth, the universe, nature, and this world that nourished countless lives.

Four directions: east, south, west and north.

In each direction, he knelt three times and kowtowed nine times. The sound of his kowtows was like the ringing of a huge bell, shaking the earth slightly.

These are creatures born and raised by nature, and they have the most pious and simple respect for the heaven and earth that gave birth to them, just like a baby's respect for its parents.

This is what Zhulong Meng did.

Several of the most experienced witches from Da Xia and Da Shang who were present followed suit. Feeling that the concentration of the primordial Qi between heaven and earth was constantly recovering, they also knelt on the ground.

Xingyue, Sophie, Marceau, and dozens of slender girls beside them all showed extremely charming smiles. They raised their hands, and as their fingers swayed, countless seeds turned into points of light and flew rapidly in all directions.

at the same time.

In Fentian City.

Behind Li Kuisheng, a woman in a white robe with long hair and a face like a jinn appeared quietly. She put one hand on Li Kuisheng's shoulder and said softly, "I don't dislike you either... How about letting me be Xing Tianli's aunt? Let's go get married today?"
