Chapter 780 Sima Ming holds life and death
Faced with Chu Tai's offensive, the dukes and monks who took action either cast spells to dodge or used treasures to resist.

Chu Tai didn't care about this at all. He was naturally happy if he could hit the target, but he was not discouraged if he couldn't. For him, knowing who was the one who made the move and being able to catch a glimpse of his breath was a success.

"Wait, something's wrong!"

There were also capable cultivators among the princes. When they sensed something was wrong, they immediately cast a spell to conceal their own aura.

Chu Tai noticed the subtle changes and showed a little appreciation in his eyes: "It's a good idea, but the cultivation is a little lacking."

The five fingers contracted slightly, and the breath that had gathered earlier was held by them.

At the same time, under Mount Tai, the Eastern Peak, the Great Sima Ming raised his head, and countless causes and conditions blended around him. Wisps of black and white life and death energy gathered from all directions. When the breath receded, a scroll with black and white essence flowing, and the overlapping of life and death energy appeared in the hand of the Great Sima Ming.

In the center of the top page were the three divine symbols of “Book of Life and Death”.

The Great God of Destiny raised his hand, and the book moved without wind. The destinies of countless lives were revealed one by one. The sins and merits were intertwined, entangled with one name after another.

Finally, the page stopped, revealing the names of more than thirty people, which corresponded exactly to the breath held in Chu Tai's hand.

"Hmm, there are actually a few who are protected by good deeds? Surrounded by good deeds? They are destined to have a long life."

The Great God of Destiny looked at the many names, paused at a few of them for a moment, snapped his fingers, and a spiritual light fell, covering those names. Then he clenched his five fingers, and took out a brush that had the pattern of life and death condensed on it. The tip was bright red like blood, and he lightly drew a red circle to circle the name.

The black and white energy of life and death fell and merged into the names that had not been covered up and bound by the red circle. In an instant, countless invisible forces emanated from the underworld, following the connection in the dark, looking for the owners of those names.

The marquis, who had finally climbed out of the wall and was about to take action again in front of the Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror, trembled all over and spit out blood. It turned out that he had gone crazy because of the use of his magic power.

At the same time, the many magic weapons on his body that helped him calm his mind and protect his spirit were either covered in dust or broken.

"wrong!"

The Marquis immediately realized the problem and wanted to stabilize his state, but as soon as he thought about it, he immediately felt countless disasters and calamities rolling towards him. Evil thoughts arose in his mind, and his magic power flowed out even more uncontrollably.

What’s even more terrifying is that as his magic power faded, wisps of deathly air seeped out from the ground, flowing through his pores and into his empty body.

In an instant, the Marquis's skin became loose, his teeth began to loosen, his hair gradually fell apart, and an air of aging completely enveloped his body.

"No, my life span is still ten thousand years."

The Marquis showed a look of horror. Chu Tai's face appeared on the Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror. He looked at him and sneered, "It's really been many years since you saw the mysteries of the gods. You have forgotten the ability of the underworld to capture souls and shorten people's lifespans."

"Besides, how much of your life span was gained through your own practice, and how much was gained through trickery and robbery? Now that karma has been borne and retribution has come back, is it any wonder?"

"What retribution can affect me? I have the title of Marquis protected by the Holy King Avenue. How can a mere evil demon affect my lifespan? Wait till I break your evil magic!"

The aura of humanity surged around the Marquis, and circle after circle of halos appeared, constantly replenishing the vital energy and magic power overflowing from his acupoints. He tried to draw on the power of the Saint King Avenue to protect himself, but as soon as this power emerged, it was suppressed by Chu Tai from a distance.

"You really don't know? I am also the heir of the Saint King Avenue. I also have a share of the power of the Saint King Avenue. How dare you, a mere marquis whose dynasty was overthrown, compete with me?"

Chu Tai's voice came out from the mirror, but the marquis had already turned into dry bones, and all the monks around him had also disappeared.

The deceased Marquis's soul has an incomplete royal aura and is connected to the earth veins. After feeling the attraction of the netherworld, he immediately wants to steal the vitality of the surrounding creatures to maintain his own status and power. At the same time, he also wants to bind the souls of other cultivators and make them his subordinates.

His action caused dissatisfaction from the Great God of Destiny. He looked down from afar and snorted coldly.

The sound like thunder echoed in the ears of the Marquis. He couldn't help but feel a little despair in his heart, but he still wanted to resist.

While he continued to restrain his royal energy, absorb vitality, and condense his ghost immortal body, he hid under the Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror, trying to use this treasure to protect his own peace.

"Obstinate!"

The Great Sima turned the brush in his hand and directly crossed out the name of the Marquis. A force of life and death fell, directly shattering the royal aura in the Marquis' body and obliterating the Dharma body he had just condensed, leaving only a little soul that fell into the underworld and was led away by the power of the Great Sima.

Throughout the entire process, the Marquis's many resistances were not effective.

After his soul fell into the underworld, it was easily suppressed by Guo Shan and others.

As for the Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror that remained in place and was also suppressed by the power of life and death, it fell to the ground.

After a while, a ray of light descended from the sky, and two heavenly generals appeared. One of them took the Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror and some treasures from this place and left, while the other one waved a banner and ushered in the order of the Eastern Shinto.

The phantoms of several gods gradually emerged, sitting in the middle, circulating the local veins, transforming the many materials in the Marquis's mansion into the vitality of heaven and earth, and giving back to all directions.

On the other side, Chu Tai in the cloud chariot looked at the treasures that kept gathering, but there was no joy in his eyes.

After the initial surprise and joy, Shi Huajin gradually frowned.

Yin Ran saw this scene and his face was also solemn. Shang Zhu and Shou Ling also saw something was wrong. Shou Ling asked, "Isn't it a good thing for the master to kill the enemy easily?"

"Good things are good, but too much ease is not good."

Smoldering with a sigh, Shi Huajin continued, "Five or six marquises died so easily. Either the Central Plains wanted to use us to clean up the local tyrants here, or they wanted to use their deaths to do something else."

After saying that, Shi Huajin bowed to Chu Tai and asked, "Master, should we continue to move forward?"

Shi Huajin actually knew that he had just asked a stupid question, and now that things had come to this, there was no turning back.

But as a senior in the sect, Shi Huajin was really worried that something might happen to his junior fellow sect leader. He even made up his mind that as long as Chu Tai nodded, he would immediately destroy his own Taoist fruit, saying that he was seriously injured and Chu Tai gave up the idea of ​​moving forward in order to save him.

Chu Tai, who had guessed part of his brother's thoughts, waved his hand and said, "If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if water comes, we will block it with earth. Even if they want to plot against me, they must be able to stop this cloud chariot. The purpose of our trip is to unite with the Northern Wilderness Immortal Sect. If we go back now, we will be laughed at."

After saying that, he raised his hand and lightly tapped the void. A few wisps of smoke fell, and the cloud chariot continued to move forward. Heavenly soldiers and maidens danced around it. At the same time, it increased its influence on the outside world, pulling the order of the East Land Shinto down.

At the same time, after the demise of several marquises, order within their subordinate lands began to gradually decline.

Part of the humanitarian order in the Central Plains began to expand towards this area and quickly occupied part of the land.

Chu Tai sensed this change and was relieved, but he did not dare to be careless. He quietly contacted Yun Zhongjun and asked him to contact other immortal monks in the Northern Wilderness in the identity of Secret Treasure True Man.
