Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 1150: Chapter 708: Where Is Nanyang? I’m Protecting the Sutra (Happy New Year to the Big Shots) - Part 2

Alas, I have no need for such vain titles. Merely with the Dao Sword at my waist, I can slaughter my way through the cultivators and demons of heaven and earth, suck in the mortal world’s destiny, ascend to the Third Grade in one go, and seize the supreme position of Immortal Emperor of the world!

"No need to wait any longer."

The Xuan Wu Taoist turned and left the summit courtyard, heading straight west.

Those who are bound, ultimately achieve nothing.

First, slay the Arhat outside the Divine Dynasty, unify the young Heavenly Prides of the Immortal Sect, then drive the Great Demons to invade the Divine Dynasty, let ten million living beings die first, then protect the four continents with the Dao Sword, and swallow the Emperor’s Aura of the ignorant mortal world.

Such a simple matter, why make it so complicated.

"..."

The remaining Heavenly Prides all fell into silence, each with their thoughts.

Some were worried, others were discontent with Xuan Wu’s self-appointed leadership, merely having advanced a few more steps within the Fourth Grade Realm; truly entering the Third Grade, it’s still uncertain who is stronger and who is weaker.

But regardless, if they wanted to rob this grand scripture of Buddhism, now they could only rely on him.

Thinking of this, everyone followed closely behind him, sweeping out of Shenxu Mountain.

...

Divine Dynasty, Great Nan Continent.

A grave voice reverberated inside the hall.

"They must be stopped outside the Twenty-Seven Prefectures!" Several Titled Generals, filled with righteous indignation, looked outside the hall.

They couldn’t manage the affairs of the other three continents, but those group of Arhats absolutely couldn’t enter from Great Nan Continent. If they really allowed that scripture-transmitting chariot to travel through Nan Continent, causing turbulence in the Emperor’s Aura, then the Demon Slayer Bureau and the Imperial Court’s affairs would only become increasingly difficult, falling into an indescribably passive situation.

"Who will stop them?"

Yang Mingli sat quietly behind the desk, seemingly asking a question, but his turbid eyes carried no ripples at all, showing no intention to get an answer, instead, it seemed more like a mockery.

Many Titled Generals simultaneously stepped forward, words of compliance almost slipping out, but upon meeting Lord Yang’s eyes, they all suddenly remembered something, falling into hesitation.

The matter of the Bodhi Sect transmitting the scripture, not only the Immortal Sect, Imperial Court, and all beings knew about it; that group of demons knew as well.

Anyone not a fool could guess that the Imperial Court, although unable to refuse, would certainly try to mess things up.

But precisely because of this, with internal defenses empty, it was a great opportunity to attack!

Previously in Songfeng Prefecture, the Demon Race seemed to have suffered heavy losses, but eight Fourth Grade Demon Immortals, spread across three Great Demons, each only lost less than three. It was far from a crushing defeat.

Another similar attack could definitely be organized.

Moreover, with the experience from last time, the Great Demons would certainly not foolishly deploy all the experts into one place; they would surely spread out and break through from all directions.

"Stepping back ten thousand paces."

Yang Mingli flipped through the Immortal List with his hand: "Having left the Divine Dynasty, without the suppression of the Emperor’s Aura, in front of those Heavenly Prides and Great Arhats, can you still really consider yourselves Fourth Grade Cultivators?"

"..."

The crowd’s faces changed again, mixing helplessness with bitterness.

How could Lord Yang be like this, in such circumstances, first destroying our own prestige, really a bit annoying!

"I will go."

At this moment, Feng Xi slowly stood up and walked towards the outer hall.

As a Third Grade expert, dealing with a group of Great Arhats and Taiyin True Immortals was completely within her capability.

Yang Mingli didn’t even lift his eyelids: "If you want to go, I won’t stop you. I just want to remind you, there are many people waiting for you outside."

Those Bodhisattvas and Daluo Immortal Venerables, as well as the Southern Emperor, might consider themselves too noble to easily risk themselves.

But if the opportunity is right, ensuring no damages, cutting down a Third Grade expert of Divine Dynasty, they probably wouldn’t mind making a move.

Even to say, if Feng Xi died, it wouldn’t make much difference compared to if the Bodhi Sect successfully transmitted the scripture.

"Once you die, and Yan Lanting is seriously injured, leaving only me to guard Great Nan Continent... well, let’s see what happens."

Yang Mingli finally unmasked his mockery, but it seemed that he also included himself among those mocked.

Not only those under his command disliked him, but he also disliked his own habit of thinking too much.

Always having to think everything through in advance, wishing to anticipate every next step, but the more he thought, the more he felt utterly no chance of victory.

It might as well be like Feng Yan and herself, simply going all out, gambling with both Great Nan Continent and their lives, also making things easier.

"So what should be done?"

The Titled Generals looked at each other, suddenly reminded of something, turning their heads to look at Lord Feng: "Nanyang!"

Feng Xi, feeling the gazes behind her, did not turn back, her elegant face gradually filled with emotion.

In such a situation, although extremely perilous, the one who could really break the situation was actually only one.

Wushan sighed: "Lord Feng had already tried before. Initially, I returned to Golden Light Prefecture, Ye Lan was then called back by Shenxu Mountain, leaving only General Nanyang in Jianyang Prefecture practicing alchemy, but when I returned to find people, he had already disappeared, not knowing what he was busy with; it’s really impossible to contact him."

"..."

Lord Yang slowly closed the Immortal Register in his hands. He had pretty much guessed it already when Feng Xi volunteered without mentioning Nanyang.

According to the rules, a Titled General who leaves without permission and suddenly loses contact is committing a serious crime.

And logically thinking, the other party probably anticipated this but didn’t want to take the risk, therefore, quietly left and temporarily avoided the limelight.

Lord Yang didn’t want to treat the young man with such malicious speculation and simply didn’t bother to think more about it.

After all...

Even if the General Nanyang directly left the Divine Dynasty and never came back, he was once a great merit who defended Songfeng Prefecture and was fully righteous and benevolent to the Divine Dynasty.

"Disperse, let it be."

Lord Yang casually waved his hand and leaned back in his chair, beginning to close his eyes to rest.

Yet the gloom about him suddenly deepened, much like a dying man.

"Letting it go?" Feng Xi looked back.

"Can’t manage it," Lord Yang calmly responded, consuming the Emperor’s provision and bearing the Emperor’s worries, but the affairs the Human Emperor needed to handle were too great, and he simply lacked the capacity. At worst, he would return his life to the Imperial Court and defend the Southern Continent for as long as he could.

"Is there still a chance?" Feng Xi took a deep breath.

"Yes."

Lord Yang turned his head, looking tired, "Three Immortals Sect will not just watch this happen and let them fight it out."

The Divine Dynasty’s matters, in the end, could only place all hopes on outsiders, and these outsiders were more enemies than friends.

This feeling of utter helplessness, for a Third Grade Expert, is a severe blow, needless to say.

He was truly tired.

...

To the west of the Great Nan Continent, outside the Divine Dynasty.

From the Sumeru Treasure Mountain, in the vast land, a colossal object that blocked the sun slowly emerged.

It was about four thousand zhang long and two thousand zhang wide, divided into three levels.

The bottom level was the Nine-Colored Lotus Platform, the middle was a floating depiction of the Seven Seas and Seven Mountains, and the top was a Pagoda with a small box inside its spire, shining brilliant halo, attracting the attention of the world.

Rather than calling it a Lotus Platform Treasure Chariot, it looked more like a small city.

And this object was supported by four majestic figures marching forward.

On the left were two White Elephants, their feet stamping on mountains and rivers, and on the right were two fierce-faced Azure Lions.

Sitting on top of the elephants and lions were four equally massive Arhat Golden Bodies, they stretched out their arms, hard-lifting the Lotus Platform Treasure Chariot in a square formation.

These animals were not Demon Beast mounts, nor were they living beings, but rather the physical representations of their Great Fruit Position.

At the front of the chariot, likewise were four figures organized.

Suan Ni at the front, Racing Wolf at the back.

Again, four Great Arhats sat with folded arms, their calm gazes fixed forward.

As they moved forward, each step of the mounts covered a thousand zhang.

Steadily, they advanced in the direction they faced.

Until they crossed mountain ranges and rivers, their steps gradually entering a barren area, they then neatly stopped, as if waiting for something.

Soon after, a golden ray descended from the sky.

Thunderously landing on the chariot.

The newcomer appeared as towering as a mountain, with Dragon and Tiger heads swaying on his shoulders, his robust spine slightly protruding four arms, each palm seemingly containing divine power capable of creating heaven and earth.

He sat cross-legged under the Pagoda, between the seven layers of mountains and seas.

His palms quietly rested on his knees.

Just sitting there, there was an aura of swallowing mountains and rivers and dispersing evil spirits!

Eight Great Arhats looked orderly, and upon feeling that profound Tribulation Power, the doubts in their eyes instantly vanished.

With this Golden Body stationed here, what worries were there about traversing the Four Continents, allowing the Buddha’s voice of the Bodhi Sect to resonate throughout the Divine Dynasty!

"We pay our respects to the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Great Bright King!"

The White Elephant and Evil Lion kneeled, Suan Ni and Racing Wolf turned back, the eight Great Arhats spontaneously brought their palms together, paying homage upward.

"..."

The Ming King remained silent, merely focusing towards the top of the Pagoda.

As expected, he wasn’t wrong; to illuminate the world, fakes would not suffice—judging from this Buddha’s light, inside must undoubtedly contain the True Scripture.
