Chapter 406 The True Face of the Holy Dynasty (Part 1)

There is no doubt that this is a big world.

This world is vast and profound, with a truly rich primordial energy... These little figures may be small, but their cultivation is truly worthy of the great world's blessings.

Even though the cultivation method was only secretly passed down among the direct descendants of the royal family and aristocratic families of the Dali Holy Dynasty, the number of people who could cultivate it was truly limited. In just one Ziyang Pass, among the garrisons of dozens of habitable planets, with the shout of that evil monk, more than ten people at the Daluo Realm, more than a thousand Taiyi Realm cultivators, and more than ten thousand Golden Immortals launched an attack on Xing Tianli.

The sky was filled with dazzling light.

Those immortal artifacts and weapons at the Golden Immortal, Taiyi, and Daluo levels released dazzling light, like a torrential rain, all crashing down at once.

Even their celestial weapons are so small and exquisite.

Even though, due to their natural talents, their cultivation level was several times weaker than that of cultivators from the Nine Provinces.

The immortal weapons they summoned according to the proper cultivation methods of the Nine Provinces were still powerful enough to pierce through the stars; the spells they casually unleashed were enough to move mountains and overturn seas, enough to turn the starry sky upside down.

Xing Tianli laughed loudly, spread his hands, and went to meet him.

But before the barrage of attacks could even land on Xing Tianli, Ran Min, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, charged forward shirtless. With a halberd and an axe, a shower of blood splattered across the sky. Ran Min roared, "You despicable creatures, so exquisitely beautiful, yet with such vile minds… truly, you are not even human!"

An axe.

The three great Luos, the hundred Taiyis, and the three thousand Golden Immortals were pulverized.

One halberd.

Five Great Luo, three hundred Taiyi, eight thousand Golden Immortals, all in two separate segments.

From the side, Black Mane roared, clad in the heavy armor forged for him by Xing Tianli, and wielding the nine-toothed rake forged by Xing Tianli, charging forward with his head held high. The nine-toothed rake stirred up auspicious light, waves surged, and a celestial river appeared out of thin air.

Xingtian Carp has a somewhat wicked sense of humor.

Within this nine-toothed rake forged for Black Hyena, he created a space with a diameter of a million miles, inlaid with a fragment of a towering creation pagoda—where water vapor surged, and as the Milky Way swept through, thousands of metal warships, bearing the banners of 'Heavenly Court Navy' and 'General Tianpeng,' leisurely charged out from that space.

These Mengchong warships stretched for hundreds of miles, all in the form of ancient multi-story ships. On the dozen or so decks, metal puppets with cultivation levels of human immortals, earth immortals, and even celestial immortals stood densely packed, wielding various powerful bows and crossbows, firing arrows condensed from spiritual energy that filled the sky.

More than ten million metal puppets simultaneously drew their bows and released arrows, sending countless arrows streaking across the sky.

The waters of the Milky Way rushed down, and the little figures were so terrified by Ran Min's ferocious slaughter that they ran away in terror. Even the two remaining Great Luo Immortals had lost all will to fight and were turning to flee.

The other few Taiyi and Golden Immortals, along with their groups of defeated and disarmed cultivators, fled in all directions, crying and shouting.

Only from the two metal fortresses and the three fleets that rushed out from the nearest planet, under the protection of Xing Tian Li's immortal soul power, it was discovered that these three fleets were all controlled by 'mortal soldiers' wearing ordinary protective clothing and having no cultivation.

While the cultivators from noble families fled in disarray, these ordinary soldiers, incredibly brave and fierce, controlled three warships totaling around eight thousand, charging relentlessly into the battlefield.

Then, a shower of arrows rained down.

On the warships, thick energy shields lit up, the ten-zhang-thick shields crackling with electricity, colliding fiercely with the arrows formed from the condensed spiritual energy. Muffled explosions echoed continuously, clusters of flashes rapidly bursting open, the dense rain of arrows relentlessly weakening the warships' energy shields, flattening them all in the blink of an eye.

The arrow struck the warship's thick armor plating.

Layer upon layer of armor was shattered, and soon the warships were belching smoke and flames, their hulls going out of control and tumbling wildly in all directions.

Only a few hundred of the most elite warships, before their own hulls went out of control, fiercely attacked the Heavenly River Navy fleet released by Black Hyena. Streams of high-temperature particles, carrying the destructive power of a Golden Immortal, relentlessly bombarded the charging Mengchong warships on the Heavenly River.

Xing Tianli wanted to forge a Great Luo-class warship, but the materials were difficult to collect.

However, for Taiyi-level warships, Xing Tianli could completely conjure the necessary innate spiritual metal out of thin air—these thousands of classic-style tower ships, each hundreds of miles long, although the metal puppets on their decks were somewhat lackluster, were all Taiyi-level warships in themselves.

The seemingly dim array suddenly glowed with a faint light.

Layers of tortoise-shell-shaped beams of light protected the warships, and no matter how hard the little warships bombarded them, not a single particle stream could shatter the shields of these Mongol warships.

In the void, there were only the terrified screams of the little figures.

They were completely baffled by what they were seeing—they had fought against the Sima clan, against the fleets of Cao Wei and Sun Wu, but even those formidable enemies and their warships were not so indestructible.

Xing Tianli pondered for a moment, then with a wave of his sleeve, thousands of tiny warships in the void shattered simultaneously.

Those little soldiers in ordinary armor roared as they were involuntarily separated from the shattered warship. With a flick of Xing Tianli's hand and a great leaping technique, he threw all the soldiers back to the planet where their fleet had previously been stationed.

The fleet that was violently destroyed by Xing Tianli and Bai Luanxing was not ordinary.

The soldiers in that fleet were all highly skilled, from powerful and wealthy families, and they were the ones who initiated the attack. These ordinary soldiers, on the other hand, were clearly commoners, and Xing Tianli had no interest in slaughtering civilians.

Within Ziyang Pass, streaks of light shot into the sky from dozens of habitable planets.

On each planet, there are more than a dozen auras at the Great Luo level.

Closest to the two purple suns, suspended motionless in the air, within a floating palace covering an area of ​​about ten miles, a pale purple light slowly rose into the sky. In just a flash, it traversed an extremely long distance, rushing straight to within a thousand miles of Xing Tianli.

Xing Tianli raised an eyebrow.

Lu Guan, the planetary commander stationed on Bailuan Star, was a complete waste, while the supreme commander of Ziyang Pass was a quasi-saint level being. Moreover, his aura was extremely pure and clean, indicating that he was a proper Taoist cultivator.

A faint scent of incense lingered in the air.

This middle-aged man, who was about three feet two inches tall, with fair skin, thin and wiry, and a short beard of about half an inch on his chin, had a wisp of purple smoke rising more than ten feet high from his head. The purple smoke spread out from his head and transformed into a purple cloud shaped like a lingzhi mushroom.

Three translucent statues floated in the air above the thin purple clouds.

An old man, clad in Taoist robes, had three immortal swords floating around him, each radiating sunlight, moonlight, and starlight respectively. The three swords slowly rotated around the old man, subtly forming an extremely profound sword formation according to the three directions of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

In the center stood a middle-aged man clad in heavy armor. He was robust, with bulging muscles, piercing eyes, and a thick beard. He held a long axe, had a goose-feather saber hanging at his waist, and carried four small flags on his back, each bearing the words "Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain".

On the other side was a handsome young man. Beside him was a patch of spiritual soil about ten feet in diameter, covered with all sorts of strange flowers and plants, and a faint, rich herbal fragrance wafted from around him.

Xing Tianli raised his eyebrows in surprise: "The path of incense and gods? You've refined your own divided spirit into a deity for people to worship?"

The gaunt middle-aged man slowly nodded: "Ye Lan, the commander-in-chief of Ziyang Pass, may I ask you, why did you slaughter my people of Dali without cause?"

Xing Tianli chuckled. "You want to slaughter your people of Dali without cause?"
Arguing is the most boring thing ever.

Xing Tianli nodded seriously: "That's right, it was me. My hands were itching, so I did it. Ye Lan? Nice name, tsk, looks like a protagonist. Hmm, I slaughtered your Dali people without cause, what do you want?"

Ran Min, carrying a halberd and an axe, stood beside Xing Tianli with a strange laugh, looking Ye Lan up and down.

Ye Lan sighed softly and shook his head: "Since that's the case, it's clear that the Taoist is a heretic and evil person. I, Ye, can only subdue demons and eliminate evil to uphold the law. Hmm, do you all still want me to take action personally?"

Behind them, lights twinkled.

In the void, dozens of void teleportation arrays materialized out of thin air. Cultivators from dozens of planets in Ziyang Pass used these teleportation arrays set up in the outer space of their planets to cross long distances in the void and arrive at the exit of this official road.

Xing Tianli's teeth ached from looking at it.

These guys set up the Void Teleportation Array in outer space, so all cultivators have to use their escape techniques to enter outer space before they can use the teleportation array to get here. These guys don't want ordinary people to have the opportunity to use the teleportation array, do they?

However, a void teleportation array, a void teleportation array that can teleport several light-years away, even if you set it up on the ground, ordinary people would be crushed to pieces if they even slightly touched the spatial fluctuations emitted by the array.

Xing Tianli waved his hand and asked curiously, "Let's put aside the matter of exorcising demons for now... Why is your void teleportation array set up in outer space? Hmm, could it be that you're also trying to prevent ordinary civilians from using it?"

Ye Lan looked at Xing Tianli with surprise: "What the Taoist said is strange, he doesn't follow any rules at all... The Void Teleportation Array is such a sacred and majestic object, of course it can only be used by the scions of noble families. Those common people are certainly not allowed to use it, but if their hands and feet touch the array base, or even if they die in the array, then their lowly flesh and blood will be sprayed all over the ground... wouldn't that be a waste of such good materials?"

Behind Ye Lan, a woman who was a little over two feet nine inches tall, with a slender and tall figure and an extremely beautiful face, and whose cultivation was at the Great Luo Perfection Realm, sneered: "What the Commander-in-Chief said is the right thing to do. The Void Teleportation Array, even if those lower-level cattle and horses only put a finger on it, they would be tainted with their stench. Who would want to use it?"

Xing Tianli smacked his lips.

He pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "But you and they live on the same planet, in the same city. They breathe the air you breathe, they use the same river water, they walk the same roads you walk..."

The beautiful woman looked at Xing Tianli with a strange expression: "Where did this country bumpkin come from? He's such a clueless bumpkin, how did he end up with such cultivation?"

"Those lowly people may live on the same planet as us, but they are not on the same continent."

"In the city where we live, all the servants and servants are house-born children, carefully selected handsome men and beautiful women, descendants of optimized bloodlines, raised from childhood with fine rice and flour, not to mention fine clothes and delicacies."

"Even so, the water source that the servants fetch is different from the mountain spring we use."

“In the city, we nobles naturally have our own official roads, while the servants and servants have their own ‘roads’ for their daily travel.”

The beautiful woman, her eyebrows dancing with pride, recounted the many social rules of the Dali Holy Dynasty.

Xing Tianli was dumbfounded.

He muttered, "You actually divide your own people into such different classes... Hmph, you remind me of..." Xing Tianli suddenly remembered a strange country in his previous life known as the 'Anus of Earth,' whose caste system was quite similar to that of the Dali Holy Dynasty!
"Doesn't Liu Bei do anything about you?" Xing Tianli frowned and sighed.

Ye Lan held a crystal-clear jade pendant in her hand, its surface shimmering with celestial light, seemingly up to no avail.

Upon hearing the name 'Liu Huangshu', the beautiful woman reacted as if she had been kicked in the balls, baring her teeth and claws as she jumped up and down: "Liu Huangshu? Ah, you mean that old fellow Liu Xuande? Bah! Liu Xuande, Zhuge Kongming, these outsiders, staying in my Dali Holy Dynasty, don't even have the slightest sense of being guests."

"They are sojourners. Our Great Li Holy Dynasty has drawn up hundreds of habitable planets for them to rest and recuperate."

"They actually dared to rely on their power and military might to recklessly interfere in the internal affairs of my Great Li Holy Dynasty—bah, I mean, the people should not be treated well and should not be punished without being taught… What do you mean by punishing without being taught?"

"We are born nobles. What's wrong with killing a few of those lowly people who don't like us or are ignorant?"

"Since time immemorial, those lowly people, like cattle and horses, have been at our mercy..."

The beautiful woman shouted angrily.

The three women, Liuluan, Liuxing, and Liujing, couldn't stand it anymore.

After all, they belonged to the Witch Temple, and the Three Kingdoms story was an integral part of the many classic texts they had read since childhood. Who was Liu Bei? Who was Zhuge Liang?
"How dare you barbarians like Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang criticize them?" The three women blinked, and true to the tradition of witches in the witch temple who never complained but always acted ruthlessly, they put their hands in their sleeves and raised their little fingers in unison.

Three invisible, colorless, formless, and silent poisons silently flew through the air, traversing millions of miles in the blink of an eye, and landed on the beautiful woman.

To be honest, the three women's cultivation levels are not as high as this beautiful woman's.

However, the three women acted too quickly, and they used the vicious witchcraft secrets passed down by the Witchcraft Palace. The Witchcraft Palace secret techniques are that terrifying. As long as the existing books and formulas are followed to prepare the ready-made poison, even if the user is just an ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivator, they can unleash incredibly terrifying destructive power.

The cultivation levels of the three women under the banner were not as high as those of this beautiful woman.

However, the Gu poison they used was a powerful concoction that Xing Tianli had carefully prepared by studying the Gu poison techniques in the "Primitive Witchcraft Classic" along the way, relying on his ever-increasing cultivation level.

Xing Tianli's true combat strength far surpasses that of his youngest daughter.

Three non-toxic strands landed silently on the beautiful woman—that petite, lovely, and graceful woman suddenly let out a series of extremely foul-smelling farts.

This woman was clearly a very important figure in Ziyang Pass. Her series of foul farts left 99% of the Dali Holy Dynasty cultivators rushing out of Ziyang Pass dumbfounded, staring at her in disbelief.

Only a few young women, whose cultivation, figure, temperament, and aura were similar to hers, laughed loudly with exaggerated expressions, voices, and body movements, covering their stomachs with their hands amidst the continuous farting sounds.

A woman laughed and said, "Little Sister Ye Jiu, how could someone as pure and innocent as you fart?"

A woman laughed and said, "Oh my, that's really interesting. What did Little Sister Ye Jiu do to cause her body to be... polluted?"

One of the women laughed loudly, "But what's wrong with you that makes Ye Jiu, a peak Great Luo cultivator, so disheveled? Oh dear, Ye Jiu cultivates the purest and most exquisite immortal technique. If she wanted to break your flawless Glazed Immortal Body, perhaps she'd been tainted by some lowly commoner?"

The beautiful woman was furious and about to retort when another string of foul-smelling farts erupted from her.

Immediately afterwards, the dignified Golden Immortal, whose body was clean and flawless, without a trace of dirt, actually began to defecate and urinate... The spray was so violent that a large amount of pus and blood gushed out, staining her pure white, radiant long dress a reddish-yellow color.

All around, the cultivators of the Great Li Holy Dynasty were in an uproar, staring at the beautiful woman with utter terror.

Her once exquisitely beautiful face was suddenly covered with countless pustules, resembling smallpox. Large pustules were piled on top of smaller ones, and even smaller blood scabs appeared on top of those smaller ones... Then, one by one, the shiny blood pustules suddenly burst open, and countless thin streams of pus and blood, accompanied by a terrible stench, gushed out.

When this pus and blood spurted out, it was still a thick slurry, but as soon as it touched the primordial energy in the void, it immediately turned into a visible yellow poisonous gas that sprayed out in all directions.

Tens of thousands of cultivators from all directions of the Great Li Holy Dynasty had no time to react. Upon slight contact with the poisonous gas, they vomited and had diarrhea, and countless pustules appeared on their bodies.

In an instant, screams of alarm rose into the sky, and many people clutched their stomachs, tumbling and screaming wildly in the air.
