Chapter 222: Killing the Soul-Breaking Emperor in Public and Restoring the Yue Kingdom
"Make peace? It's not impossible. The six evil sects should immediately withdraw from the land of Yue State and compensate for the losses caused by the occupation of Yue State for several years!" Sun Zecheng said nonchalantly.
"Your request is too much!" Soul-Breaking Immortal continued, "The three mountain gates in the southern part of Yue State will be given to you, the six sects of Yue State. We will negotiate peace on our current territory and not invade each other."
"You're still dreaming!" Sun Zecheng laughed.
Then he changed his expression and shouted:
"Listen up, old thief from the Six Demon Sects!"
"Get out of here! Don't talk about self-protection anymore."
"When my army reaches the gate of Yanyue Sect, we will kill all the Nascent Souls who are still in Yanyue Sect!"
"How dare you, youngster, break your oath?" the Nascent Soul of the Demon Flame Sect exclaimed.
"It seems that the oath on that day only forbade the Nascent Soul to take action, but did not forbid those below the Golden Core to attack the Nascent Soul." Sun Zecheng said without thinking.
"Is that so?" asked the Yuanying of Tiansha Sect.
“Indeed.” The former Yuanying of Lingshou Mountain and today’s Yuanying of Yuling Sect was the one who took the oath that day and he knew the content of the oath very well.
Originally, this was not a problem at all. Ordinary golden elixirs could not defeat Yuanying at all.
So when we swear, no one thinks about this!
"This is troublesome." The Demon Flame Sect relied entirely on the Qingyang Demon Fire to show off its power. The Demon Flame Sect's Nascent Soul thought of the scene of Sun Zecheng casually eliminating the Qingyang Demon Fire, and suddenly felt extremely guilty.
"Don't be so arrogant, young man. If it weren't for the oath, I would extract your soul and refine your spirit!" The Soul-Breaking Immortal didn't know how powerful Sun Zecheng was, and he was very unhappy to see Sun Zecheng being so arrogant.
Sun Zecheng originally didn't know the specific content of the oath between Yuanying. He just knew vaguely that Yuanying was not allowed to take action, and then he made random guesses.
When he heard the Yuanying of Yuling Sect personally confirm that it was indeed true, he was overjoyed!
Only my Jindan is allowed to hit you, and your Yuanying is not allowed to do anything! Hahaha, this agreement in the mortal world is fucking weird!
"Don't run if you're brave, old thief!" Sun Zecheng laughed and flew up to attack the Soul-Breaking Immortal.
The Nascent Soul of Zhu from the Demon Flame Sect reacted the fastest and turned around and ran!
The Yuanying of Xiong from the Yuling Sect was not much slower, and flew away without a trace with a "whoosh".
The Yuanying surnamed Qiu from the Tiansha Sect was an old fox. Seeing that the Yuanyings from the Moyan Sect and the Yuling Sect were running faster than each other, he didn't say a word and disappeared with a magic escape technique.
"Hush!" The cultivators from the six sects of the Yue Kingdom saw it all clearly. When their own Sect Leader Sun rushed forward alone, three of the four Nascent Souls among the six sects of the Demonic Path were so scared that they turned around and ran away, and they couldn't help but boo.
When Master Shattered Soul looked over, he saw that he was the only one left among his men!
"What a bunch of cowards. A dignified Nascent Soul was frightened like this by a tiny Golden Elixir!" The Soul-Breaking Immortal cursed in dismay.
"I want to see what a small golden elixir like you can do!"
As the Soul-Breaking Immortal spoke, he used his magic to release a black ghost fog all over the sky: "I only released the ghost fog on the spot, it doesn't count as violating my oath! You can't blame me for rushing in and getting killed!"
Sun Zecheng was only worried that the Soul-Breaking Master would escape. If he didn't run away, he would be dead!
Sun Zecheng flew to within dozens of feet of the Shattered Soul Immortal, and was surrounded by ghost fog. The extremely poisonous ghost fog disappeared as soon as it touched Sun Zecheng!
Sun Zecheng was like entering a deserted place!
Sun Zecheng raised his hand and threw out six high-level talismans
The talisman instantly turned into three yellow lights and three golden lights, forming a three-layer earth cage and a three-layer gold cage that trapped the Ghost Spirit Sect's Soul-Breaking Master and Sun Zecheng in the cage!
"Hey, you're dead, old thief!"
To deal with the Ghost Spirit Sect, thunder and fire are suitable!
Sun Zecheng threw out four more "Red Fire Thunders" made by Linghu Patriarch, and suddenly there was a large area of red thunder and fire in the cage. Soon the ghost fog exploded, revealing the terrified old face of the Shattered Soul Immortal.
"Stop it, young man! Otherwise, I will destroy you even if my heart is broken!"
"You dare to speak so shamelessly even though your death is approaching! Just use whatever abilities you have!" Sun Zecheng said sarcastically.
If Soul-Breaking Master had fled from the beginning like the other three Nascent Souls, Sun Zecheng would have been able to watch him run away using the Nascent Soul's escape method.
However, once trapped in the cage, a situation of no return will occur.
With Sun Zecheng's lapis lazuli robe that makes him immune to all attacks from magic and magical weapons, and his assets of nearly ten thousand talismans, anyone who comes will be doomed!
Soul-Breaking Master no longer cared about whether to keep an oath or not.
Right now, he was in a cage, and four red fire thunders with the power of Nascent Soul level were surrounding him.
Obviously, the other party was not joking! He was really trying to kill me!
The Soul-Breaking Master took out his magic weapon, a completely black skull!
The black skull grew bigger in the wind.
The skull opened its mouth and spewed out a large amount of thick black mist.
The accumulation of hundreds of years of experience by this Soul-Breaking Immortal in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul has made the ghost fog accumulated in his magic weapon extremely thick!
The surroundings inside the cage became dark again!
There were constant explosions around the red lightning and fire, and the lightning and fire kept burning the black fog.
However, the ghost fog always covered the entire cage formed by the talisman magic, and it looked pitch black outside, except for the clear outline of where Sun Zecheng was standing.
The monks from the six sects of Yue State could not help but feel worried for Sun Zecheng:
No matter how you look at it, this ghostly fog in the sky is definitely part of the Nascent Soul technique of the Ghost Spirit Sect. Will Sect Leader Sun be okay?
The Demon Flame Sect, the Yuling Sect, and the Tiansha Sect, which had just run away, also stopped and watched after running for a distance.
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, in your opinion, who has the upper hand?" asked Zhu Yuanying of the Demon Flame Sect.
“I can’t believe it. I didn’t expect that this Jindan junior actually has the strength to fight against Brother Shattered Soul, who is in the middle stage of the Yuanying stage!” said Yuanying Daoist surnamed Qiu from the Tiansha Sect with emotion.
As soon as the words fell, the situation suddenly changed.
In the cage, Sun Zecheng threw out five "Qingxu Zheng Wulei" made by Baoxu Zhenren.
The talisman flew out and instantly transformed into five thunderclouds containing lightning floating in the air.
"Boom!" Thunder roared.
The sky suddenly flashed continuously!
"thunderbolt!"
"thunderbolt!"
With the sound of lightning, five thunderclouds successively struck out lightning bolts several feet thick!
Lightning struck, and the ghost fog in the cage quickly disappeared!
So what if he had accumulated hundreds of years in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?
Thunder and fire are the wards off evil spirits!
Soul-Breaking Master had already done his best to deal with the four red fire thunders.
What’s more, what Sun Zecheng activated later was “Qingxu Zhengwu Lei”!
The most authentic Taoist Five Thunders technique to defeat evil spirits!
"Thunder!" Five lightning bolts several feet thick and thin hit the huge black skull at the same time.
The ghost fog accumulated by the black skull was exhausted, just like the spiritual power of an ordinary magic weapon was exhausted, and it was struck by five lightning bolts and fell to the ground!
The magic weapon connected to his heart, and the Soul-Breaking Immortal spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this time, the cage was extremely bright under the continuous lightning, and the terrified and bloody old face of Shattered Soul was clearly visible!
Sun Zecheng clenched his hands, and four red fire thunders gathered around him. Five lightning bolts several feet thick struck down from the sky at the same time!
In the extremely dazzling light, the Soul-Broken Immortal turned into the Flesh-Broken Immortal!
Under the burning fire of the red fire thunder, there was a smell of burnt meat in the cage.
Sun Zecheng casually picked up the storage bag and the black skull magic weapon on the ground.
Looking at the Shattered Soul Master's body, it had been smashed into pieces, not even a large piece remained.
It is impossible to pick up this body.
It seems that the worst thing about using thunder talismans is the waste!
At this point, Sun Zecheng can only manipulate the red lightning and fire to burn everything of the Shattered Soul Master to ashes!
The disciples of the six sects of Yue finally cheered after seeing the result:
"Master Sun, kill the demon Yuanying!"
"Ohhh! Master Sun is invincible!"
"Master Sun is mighty!"
……
Kill the Soul-Breaking Master of the Ghost Spirit Sect in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage in public!
Besides, they had captured the Yanyue Sect's Grand Elder in front of everyone before. Even if Sun Zecheng wanted to keep a low profile, it would be impossible!
Since you can't keep a low profile, just become notorious!
Being scary is a good thing!
Eliminate the magic cage,
Sun Zecheng looked at the three Nascent Souls from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect in the distance and shouted:
"I am Sun Zecheng from Huangfeng Valley!"
"Who else is coming to die?"
"Who else!"
Witnessing a Jindan killing a Yuanying mid-stage person,
The three Nascent Souls from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect felt a chill in their hearts.
Not to mention that I am bound by my oath to take action.
Even if there is no one, no one dares to fight him!
The three Nascent Souls from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect were all silent.
Only Sun Zecheng's arrogant and complacent voice echoed over the battlefield.
After a while,
Sun Zecheng raised his arms and shouted:
"Return to hometown! Retake Yue Kingdom!"
The morale of the monks from the six sects of Yue State was immediately high, and the whole army raised their arms and shouted:
"Return to hometown! Retake Yue Kingdom!"
"Return to hometown! Retake Yue Kingdom!"
"Return to hometown! Retake Yue Kingdom!"
Amidst the cheers, the three Nascent Souls from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect quietly left with their tails between their legs.
When Sun Zecheng led the six factions of Yue State to the gate of Yanyue Sect,
The monks from the six sects of the devil have once again fled completely.
After the three Yuanying elders from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect witnessed Sun Zecheng using his Golden Core cultivation to kill the Yuanying middle stage Soul-Breaking True Man without any tricks,
The first thing to do when rushing back to Yanyue Sect is to issue the retreat order.
No fight,
Both parties agreed that Yuanying could not take action.
It just so happens that the opponent's leader, Jindan, has the power to kill a middle-stage Nascent Soul!
How is this played?
After a brief discussion, the three Nascent Soul elders from the Demon Flame Sect, the Imperial Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Evil Sect all agreed that they had no choice but to withdraw from the Kingdom of Yue!
So they quickly notified the various demonic forces occupying Yue State:
The opposing team leader, Sun Zecheng of the Jindan Huangfeng Valley, possesses a seemingly endless supply of high-level talismans, and can smash open the mountain protection formation with just a few strikes. He also possesses the ability to extinguish the Qingyang Demon Fire of the Demon Flame Sect, and has a record of single-handedly killing a middle-stage Nascent Soul Master.
After receiving this news, what else can the six evil sects do except withdraw from Yue State?
The six demon sects withdrew from Yue State very quickly and efficiently.
that's it
Half a month's time,
Under the leadership of Sun Zecheng, the six factions of Yue State successfully recovered the entire territory of Yue State!
One month later,
Northern Vietnam
Taiyue Mountains, Huangfeng Valley is decorated with lights and colors,
In the meeting hall, the Yuanying elders of the six sects of Yue State and the Jindan elders who were in charge of daily affairs gathered together to celebrate the recovery of the entire territory of Yue State.
In addition, there were three Nascent Soul guests, who were the Nascent Soul elders from the three major sects of Yuanwu Kingdom: Tianxing Sect, Shenbing Sect, and Wanmiao Temple.
It turned out that the Tianxing Sect, the Shenbing Sect, and the Wanmiao Temple fled to the Tiandao League after the fall of the Yuanwu Kingdom.
After learning the news that the six factions of Yue State had recovered the entire territory of Yue State, they immediately came to seek help.
Yuanwu State was the reinforcement that helped the seven factions of Yue State fight against the six sects of the Demonic Path.
Sun Zecheng agreed immediately.
The Nascent Soul elders of the Tianxing Sect, the Shenbing Sect, and the Wanmiao Temple excitedly brought Sun Zecheng and promised to return to Yuanwu Kingdom to issue a declaration of war to the six sects of the Demonic Path.
After internal discussions, the six demonic sects retreated without a fight again!
The three clans of Yuanwu Kingdom took advantage of the power of Sun Zecheng and recovered the country without a fight by relying on his reputation!
This time, the six sects of Yue Kingdom celebrated the recovery of the entire territory of Yue Kingdom in Huangfeng Valley. The three sects of Yuanwu Kingdom also came to congratulate, in fact, they were also celebrating the recovery of Yuanwu Kingdom at the same time.
The three sects of Yuanwu Kingdom brought a letter. It was left behind by the six sects of the Demonic Path when they retreated from Yuanwu Kingdom.
The letter mainly contains two points:
First, remind the six factions of Yue and the three factions of Yuanwu: the original agreement that Yuanying would not participate in the war was limited to the self-defense of Yue, Yuanwu, Zijin and other countries.
It does not even include Jiang State and Cheqi State.
If the Yue Kingdom crosses the border and counterattacks, it will be regarded as a violation of the agreement, and the Nascent Soul of the Six Sects of the Demonic Path can take action!
The second is to negotiate peace based on the current borders.
"What do you think, seniors?"
After the letter was circulated, Sun Zecheng asked.
Linghu Yuanying smiled as usual without saying a word and just drank tea.
"It seems that the six sects of the Demonic Path are scared!" Li Yuanying of Huadaowu said with a smile.
"So should we continue fighting or negotiate peace?" asked Fang Yuanying of Tianque Fort.
"I think we should continue fighting! We can't let the six evil sects off easily!" said Gongsun Yuanying of the Giant Sword Sect.
"It's all up to Sect Leader Sun," said Elder Wu of the Yanyue Sect.
"I also think we can fight, as long as Master Sun can persuade the customers to sell more talismans or crafting materials to our sect." Master Baoxu said to Sun Zecheng.
"Yes! Master Sun, please persuade the customer to sell us more talismans."
Huadaowu, Tianquebao, and Jujianmen immediately agreed to Qingxumen's proposal.
Speaking of which, the number of Nascent Souls among the Six Demonic Sects is several times that of the Six Sects of Yue Kingdom. They dare to shout and continue fighting, and their confidence comes from the more than a hundred high-level talismans in their hands!
A group of Yuanying looked at Sun Zecheng.
To fight or not to fight?
Sun Zecheng tapped his fingers on the table a few times, then said slowly:
"We fight for territory, to put it bluntly, in order to obtain resources for cultivation."
"But the cost of continuing the fight, especially when it reaches the Nascent Soul stage, is enormous."
In a Yuanying-level battle, it is very difficult to destroy the opponent under normal circumstances.
This is also the reason why the six demon sects forced the Yuanying of Yue Kingdom to agree not to participate in the war despite their several times numerical advantage.
Sun Zecheng was able to destroy the Soul-Breaking Immortal because he thought he was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and did not take Sun Zecheng's mere Golden Core seriously.
In particular, Sun Zecheng's current cultivation level is only at the initial stage of the Golden Core.
However, Sun Zecheng's attack was so fast that the news of Sun Zecheng capturing the supreme elder of Yanyue Sect alive had not yet spread!
All this greatly paralyzed the Soul-Breaking Master.
But the enemy is not stupid.
After the three Yuanying witnessed this battle,
Sun Zecheng's main means of victory was the extensive use of high-level talismans, a feature that must be well known to the six sects of the devil!
I believe no one will fight Sun Zecheng head-on!
What awaits Sun Zecheng will be guerrilla warfare, including surprise attacks and guerrilla warfare.
Sun Zecheng relies on talismans to fight. If a Yuanying enemy attacks him and then runs away, he can recover his energy by meditating.
Sun Zecheng consumes high-level talismans, and every time he throws out, he is throwing out spirit stones which are money!
Once the opponent masters and uses this tactic, Sun Zecheng will suffer heavy losses!
Besides, why fight for so much territory?
Huangfeng Valley now has less than half the population it had during its heyday. It controls two large tracts of territory, the original Huangfeng Valley and Lingshou Mountain, and does not have an urgent need for spiritual vein territory.
Speaking of benefits,
For Sun Zecheng, who alone controls the transmission channel from Tiannan Continent to Chaos Star Sea,
Trade can bring more benefits!
Yes, just peace and then make profits through trade!
"Agree to them and negotiate peace on this border." Sun Zecheng made the final decision.
A month later, the six sects of the Demonic Path, the six sects of the Yue Kingdom, and the three sects of the Yuanwu Kingdom reached a peace agreement in the Yellow Maple Valley.
Just like that, after some trouble, the borders of various countries returned to the borders during the Jinguyuan confrontation when Sun Zecheng was 30 years old.
Due to the strong resurgence of the six factions of Yue State in the center of Tiannan Continent, Tiannan Continent ushered in an era of peace.
