Chapter 626 Unification
Several days later.
A shocking message spread, causing a great commotion throughout the Outer World!
In the battle of Blood Shadow Sect, the Seven Sects Alliance was utterly defeated!
Not only was the Blood Shadow Sect Ancestor killed in battle, but the Blood Shadow Sect Mountain Gate was also subsequently broken, officially declaring that this one of the top ten righteous and evil sects has been completely erased!
Moreover, the name of the Natural Sect Patriarch resounded throughout the Outer World.
Now everyone knows that this patriarch possesses a resolute mind and remained hidden under the Qingmu Patriarch until the time was ripe to soar to great heights!
With a mastery of the Dragon Transformation Technique, he actually holds power at the Post Realm Yang God level!
And in the battle against the Blood Shadow Sect, not only did he kill the four-generation ancestors summoned by the Upper God Temple's secret technique, but he also seized the Upper God Temple's 'Eight Treasures Lotus Merit Pool', which is akin to stealing the other's heart.
Even though the Upper God Temple Hall Master barely escaped, in the end, the Upper God Temple still fell into decline.
Besides this, the Vajra Temple's Araki Zen Master and the Control Spirit Sect's Elder Xu were also confirmed dead in this battle!
In this way, among the ten righteous and evil sects in the Outer World: Corpse Chasing Sect, Blood Shadow Sect, Haoyang Sect, Flying Immortal Palace, Upper God Temple, Qingmu Ridge, Feijian Sect, Control Spirit Sect, Vajra Temple, Three-Eyed Temple, four sects have already been destroyed.
And with the death of the Yang God Ancestors from Vajra Temple and Control Spirit Sect, even though the sect residences remain, and the formations are still operating, all Yin God True Monarchs and Dao Foundation Cultivators have fled cleanly.
Aside from a small number of loyalists ready to change their identities and prepare to hibernate, the majority have actually defected to the Killing Life Sect!
No choice!
The Outer World is surrounded by impasses on three sides, and the final Three Extremes Pass defense line is even less likely to let people through.
Therefore, for the defeated cultivators here, the choices are either to live incognito and pray they never expose themselves, or to surrender; there is no third path.
This time, under the suggestion of the 'Natural Patriarch', the Killing Life Sect accepted all defectors without the previous cruel policy.
For a time, the name of the Natural Patriarch for kindness spread throughout the Outer World.
Then, Fang Xing incorporated these newly defected cultivators into the servant army and continued attacking the Upper God Temple and other sect residences.
As the battle reached this point, the Four Sects Alliance still chose to fiercely resist, establishing the final cultivator allied forces at the Upper God Temple Mountain Gate.
But this time, their defeat was faster, more tragic...
Under the millennia-old tree-men summoned by Fang Xing, no matter how sturdy the defenses, they all collapsed suddenly.
The Upper God Temple Hall Master, Three-Eyed Temple Black Feather Taoist died in battle on the spot, while the other two Yang God True Monarchs disappeared completely; even when the sect was destroyed, they never showed up.
So far!
The Killing Life Sect completely conquered the ten righteous and evil sects, unifying the Outer World!
...
Former Upper God Temple Mountain Gate.
A celebratory banquet is being held.
"Congratulations, Left Protector, on accomplishing this great success!"
The Black and White Protectors, six Great Priests, and even representatives of the defected righteous and evil loose cultivators are present.
They all wore smiles as they congratulated and toasted a young scholar in blue at the head.
The Poison Hand Scholar's face was somewhat pale, yet he drank until his cup was dry.
The cultivation of the Yang God to this extent is hardly different from a flesh body.
Fang Xing was uninterested in such banquets, ignoring the surprised glances of others, and hid in the Upper God Temple library, silently reading one scripture after another.
"It feels like the Upper God Temple's foundation is stronger than the Feijian Sect's... and they truly understand the way to prudently protect themselves."
"If the Killing Life Sect hadn't suddenly come, and the key was my intervention, it wouldn't necessarily have ended like this."
Fang Xing placed a scroll of summoning scriptures back on the wooden shelf, shaking his head quietly.
Since he connected with his main self, this battle was entirely without suspense.
After all, even in the final hour, he could have made his own body act as the signal tower and relay station for the main self to personally intervene.
Even just unleashing a wave of Destruction Divine Power would be an unbearable burden for the Outer World.
"Moreover, in this special environment of the Outer World, the Killing Life Sect's advantages are incredibly strong... even facing the War God's legendary war legions, they are sure to win..."
The True God's army is invincible, naturally because they have military priests, temple priests... to perform various healing and enhancement divine arts.
But the Outer World naturally has poor signals; the True God needs to expend more power to bestow divine arts.
But for Fang Xing, here it could be 100% converted.
Even against the Great Zhou army, they can wear the fat until slim, and the slim until dead!
"The most vicious military strategy is cutting off supplies!"
"In divine wars, the most vicious naturally is cutting off faith!"
Fang Xing had an epiphany and opened a box.
This was seized from the Upper God Temple Yang God True Monarch—'Hall Master'.
The box was luxuriously decorated, and upon opening it, inside was a national document.
"This is a state letter to the Great Zhou Divine Dynasty..."
"It seems the Killing Life Sect has already forced the Upper God Temple into desperation; the Upper God Temple even considered surrendering to the Great Zhou Divine Dynasty... Although the Great Zhou Divine Dynasty may not necessarily like these ancient Daoist sects, they definitely dislike the Killing Life Sect unifying the Outer World more."
Fang Xing laughed: "Luckily, we acted quickly!"
"Indeed."
At some unknown time, the Poison Hand Scholar had arrived behind Fang Xing, echoing him: "However... I'm still somewhat looking forward to it; if the Great Zhou dispatches an expeditionary army here, I will bury them all as the most beautiful sacrifice offered to my master."
Fang Xing: "..."
He forgot that the Killing Life Sect was a group of lunatics.
If it wasn't for his strong insistence, things might have really developed in that direction.
"Is your banquet over?"
"A dull banquet, filled with various probes and flattery..." The Poison Hand Scholar's eyes gleamed with a dark luster: "If it weren't for the instructions from Your Excellency the Divine Favored, I would have preferred to directly start the Killing Life Sect's celebration..."
"The Killing Life Sect's celebration..."
Fang Xing's forehead lines darkened, that was definitely an R-rated ceremony.
When the lunatics from the Killing Life Sect get excited, they might even sacrifice their own priests, protectors, or even the sect hierarch!
However, he quickly stopped dwelling on this issue.
"Nowadays, the residence of the sects of both righteous and evil top ten factions are in our hands, right?"
"Exactly, should we completely destroy them?" The Poison Hand Scholar was somewhat expectant.
"No need, I plan to plant some bamboo at other sects, just make sure to watch over them..."
Fang Xing chuckled: "If anyone dares to destroy my bamboo forest, they will be enemies of the Natural Sect and the Killing Life Sect, and can be wantonly annihilated... this is also the Divine Oracle!"
Divine Oracle!
Upon hearing this term, the Poison Hand Scholar's expression immediately turned solemn: "I understand, I will definitely handle this matter for Your Excellency!"
A Divine Favored would certainly not lie about a Divine Oracle.
And Fang Xing indeed wasn't lying.
His words were truly the Divine Oracle.
"The bamboo forest will keep expanding, and once it reaches a certain age, the bamboo roots will grow into bamboo shoots, giving rise to new bamboo..."
The ten-thousand-acre bamboo sea on the west slope of Poison Dragon Slope was constantly expanding.
Moreover, these spirit plants, which were personally planted and then grown by Fang Xing, would also provide him with experience!
It was precisely because of this that Fang Xing decided to carefully plan, planting bamboo one by one, accelerating their growth to a certain stage, and then simply waiting for the harvest.
'A Druid's plant domain, once it reaches the late stage, forms a snowball effect... the experience gained is truly enormous!'
'After reaching the legendary level, one could even advance a level in just a few years, all thanks to this method.'
Fang Xing pondered to himself.
Once this planting plan is complete, he can confidently travel to the Great Zhou Divine Dynasty.
After all, no matter how he indulges in revelry and neglects his cultivation outside... the Druid level will still silently improve.
"By the way, Your Excellency the Divine Favored, there's one more small matter."
Just as the Poison Hand Scholar was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Among those servant armies, a Yin God True Monarch has given advice... although it's subtle, they seem to be working together to provoke animosity between the Killing Life Sect and the Natural Sect."
"As expected, it's probably the work of those two escaped Yang God True Monarchs."
Fang Xing laughed.
A strong force is rarely destroyed outright from the outside.
Most often, it splits itself, through conflicts and corruption...
Now, after the Killing Life Sect unified the Outer World, they are looking around for enemies and suddenly discovered the Natural Sect.
It must be said, those rats hidden in the dark are quite adept.
However, they could never imagine the true relationship between Fang Xing and the Killing Life Sect.
And as 'allies', if either side becomes too strong, it will undoubtedly cause concern.
"Even though the Yin God True Monarch who suggested this has been sacrificed by me, this matter still needs to be addressed."
The Poison Hand Scholar said.
As one of the rare smart ones in the Killing Life Sect, he naturally knew that governing was far harder than destroying.
In reality, he didn't really want to govern much either.
When faced with such trouble, just purge the entire servant and mercenary armies and use them as sacrifices to the gods, wouldn't that be easier?
Solve the problem by eliminating those who propose the problem.
After all, the Killing Life Sect doesn't mind this.
"You..."
Fang Xing was a bit speechless, feeling that he still had to shoulder the heavy responsibility himself: "Let me handle this... there are two ways to solve this matter, one is the king's way, which is to act as if it's not surprising, and the problem will resolve itself... but this requires too much effort, and must be done with placation and inaction... very troublesome, and too long-winded, better to take the tyrant's strategy!"
"How tyrannical? Destroy the entire Outer World?" The Poison Hand Scholar was intrigued by this.
Fang Xing rolled his eyes at him: "A snake can't go without a head, just find and eliminate the instigators, and won't all problems be resolved?"
"Those Yang God True Monarchs are determined to hide, and the Outer World is quite vast, which is somewhat troublesome."
The Poison Hand Scholar said: "Perhaps... we should prepare some high-level sacrifices, and then call upon divine descent power to conduct a 'Divine's Prophecy'!"
"Forget it, no need for such trouble."
Fang Xing shook his head: "It's just two rats, I already have their personal Qi items, perfect for cursing them to death!"
Anyway, his lifespan no longer held much value, and he was willing to pay the price.
What's more, to counteract such a curse, besides having a high-level guardian, seeking purification from a Divine Priest is the best way, but alas, outside of the Killing Life Sect, there are no true god priests in the Outer World, making it a near-undefeatable curse!
