Chapter 362 Flattening Dragon Tiger Mountain! Slaying the Celestial Master!
"Are you angry?"

A light, teasing laugh rang out.

Suddenly, a phantom appeared beside Duncan, bearing a resemblance to him but more like the first incarnation of the King of Kings, Duncan. The phantom gazed at the mountains of corpses and seas of blood around them, its pupils slightly contracting, but it still pretended to be nonchalant, mocking, "Underestimating the enemy and advancing rashly, is this how you use military strategy?"

"You are nothing more than relying on the Black Dragon to intimidate the enemy army, and on your own supernatural ability to steal people's cultivation, so you have almost no rivals in this world."

"That's just reckless and unrestrained behavior."

Duncan slowly opened his eyes, stared at himself, and said softly, "Hmm."

"This is the fastest way to pacify the country, and it will cause the least harm to the people."

If the Yangtze River hadn't suddenly breached its banks, Duncan's swift conquest of the Southern Tang would have caused almost no significant harm to the common people.

This statement came out.

The black dragon circling not far away was suddenly startled. It heard Duncan's words but did not know who he was talking to. It looked up at Duncan with surprise, and then looked around at the empty battlefield, where there was not even a lonely ghost.

Duncan turned to look at the black dragon and said calmly, "My cultivation is no longer able to suppress it. The three corpses have appeared and are provoking me."

"You don't need to stay here, go and recover from your injuries."

Upon hearing this, Mo Jiao hesitated for a moment, but remained where he was. His expression gradually hardened, and he spoke in human language, saying, "I am willing to protect Your Majesty."

It is unclear what Duncan's three corpses are.

But now that the Three Corpses have emerged, they can no longer leave.

The black dragon retreated, but did not go far away; it simply left the vicinity of the battlefield.

His Majesty may have to execute the three corpses.

It must be protected by the surrounding guardians.

"This guy is quite loyal."

The Three Corpses glanced at the Ink Dragon beside them, a hint of envy, jealousy, and hatred flashing in their eyes, and mocked, "If you didn't have authority over dimensional space, such a being wouldn't easily submit to you."

"Not to mention being utterly loyal."

The three corpses strolled casually across the battlefield littered with severed limbs, observing everything around them with amusement: "Now the initiative has been lost, and the people have suffered heavy casualties."

"All your plans have come to naught."

"In a fit of rage and shame."

"All you can do to vent your anger is slaughter these soldiers and generals."

"If your enemies were not foolish, and instead deployed their forces in the Sichuan and Guangdong regions to launch an uprising while your foundation was unstable, you would surely face trouble in your own backyard. Even if you did not die or suffer defeat, you would be severely weakened."

In less than a year and a half, Duncan conquered the Southern Han, Later Shu, and Southern Tang kingdoms, indicating that his foundation was indeed unstable.

He stared blankly at the three corpses before him and calmly said, "You forgot I have a God's-eye view."

"Clear distinction between friend and foe."

"Moreover, I have also deployed many demonic sect experts in the Guangdong, Guangxi and Sichuan regions, so it is impossible for them to succeed in starting a rebellion."

Upon hearing this, the three corpses once again displayed an expression of envy, jealousy, and hatred, and sneered, "Indeed."

"Seize the initiative."

"They actually fought it to this extent."

"Without authority over dimensional space, you're probably nothing, aren't you?"

Duncan remained calm and said lightly, "Human strength has its limits. I'm focused on winning this battle, so I can't afford to worry about anything else."

"If we advance steadily and honorably, we will conquer cities and seize strongholds along the way."

"How many more people will die?"

Duncan used a surprise attack, or what you might call a direct assault, a blitzkrieg tactic, which involved relentlessly advancing until he reached Nanjing, captured Li Yu of the Southern Tang, and forced the entire Southern Tang to surrender.

The breach of the Yangtze River dike was a miscalculation on his part; he underestimated the moral bottom line of some people.

"You've said so much."

"We were utterly defeated. If I had authority over dimensional space, how could things have come to this?" The Three Corpses smiled mockingly.

Duncan slowly raised his head, stared at the three corpses in front of him, and calmly said, "First, I have not been completely defeated."

"Secondly, you really resemble me from before, a keyboard warrior who never admitted defeat when it came to insulting others."

Upon hearing this, the three corpses in front of him instantly turned red with rage and shouted, "Bullshit!"

You're the keyboard warrior!

Duncan smiled without saying a word, but stared at the three corpses in front of him who were furious, and slowly said: "You know everything I have experienced along the way."

"Ask yourself honestly, if you were to do it, could you really do it better than me?"

"do not forget."

"You are just the me from the past."

Duncan slowly stood up, his back to the three corpses in front of him, and calmly said, "I went from an ordinary person who had never even killed a chicken to the position of King of Kings, fighting my way up with every sword and spear."

"Although we have the authority over dimensional space, every single time we've fought our way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

"You're jealous of me now."

"But they forgot how I charged into battle alone, and how many times I brushed shoulders with death."

"Although what made me who I am is indeed a dimensional being, I haven't been playing a game along the way. I've shed countless drops of blood and suffered countless injuries."

Duncan turned and looked down at the three corpses in front of him, who were filled with fear, and said in a deep voice, "Otherwise..."

Why are you afraid to face me?

"Why hide?"

"Why did you appear when my mental state was unstable during my breakthrough?"

"look into my eyes!"

"answer me!"

The three corpses were momentarily stunned by Duncan's imposing aura, their expressions growing increasingly fearful. They knew best how Duncan had fought his way up. It was true that the authority of the dimensional space had made Duncan who he was, but it was also true that he had single-handedly fought his way through the entire continent of Europe.

Even an ordinary person, after traversing mountains of corpses and seas of blood, would have long since undergone a transformation.

What it fears is Duncan now.

Duncan sighed, "Slay the old self to see the true self."

"You are the three corpses that I once transformed into. Killing you is equivalent to killing my past self."

"You have so many things about you that I used to have."

"You suddenly appeared today."

"Has he already absorbed Fan Hu Zi's power?"

The three corpses looked horrified and murmured, "You knew all this?"

Duncan nodded calmly and said, "When I killed Fan Hu Zi, I did not gain divinity or any supernatural powers. I guessed it back then."

"Why do you think I'm still here?"

The three corpses looked on with a hint of fear, muttering, "Are you waiting for me to show myself?"

"You want to kill me?"

Duncan shook his head again and said, "I can't kill you right now."

"Because you are the original me."

"To kill you is to deny yourself, to deny your past, to deny your past powerlessness."

"I choose to accept you."

Upon hearing that Duncan couldn't kill him for the time being, the three corpses in front of him immediately perked up again, as if they had regained their original momentum, and asked with a hint of mockery in their eyes: "Accept me?"

How do I accept it?

"Can I borrow your human form to play with?"

Duncan smiled faintly and said, "Don't even think about it. You can only be considered the old me, so you should just stay in the sea of ​​consciousness."

Upon hearing this, the Three Corpses scoffed, "In the end, you're no different from me."

Duncan slowly shook his head and said, "Come with me."

"We still have important things to do."

"Are you going to obediently listen to me, or should I first use my Heart Sword to cut you down before you come with me?"

While talking.

A faint phantom of a primordial spirit appeared, like a towering giant looking down at the three corpses before him. This was Duncan's primordial spirit, transformed after experiencing mountains of corpses and seas of blood, looking down at the three former selves of the corpses like a god. The three corpses instantly shrank back, their expressions showing a hint of fear as they said, "I'll go with you."

"where are we going?"

Duncan stood with his hands behind his back, his figure rising from the ground, soaring through the air, and landing on the head of the black dragon. He said calmly, "Go and flatten Dragon Tiger Mountain!"

"The Three Schools of Talismans".

"Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish!"

"You're right."

"I was indeed furious and embarrassed."

“I’m a person who follows the rules, but since they don’t follow the rules, then don’t blame me for not following them.”

"you forgot?"

"In this world, I am the Great Freedom Demon Lord!"

The Great Free Heaven Demon Lord, who should least follow the rules, has been honestly acting according to the rules of the mortal world. But now that someone has broken the rules, then don't blame the Great Free Heaven Demon Lord for flipping the table.

Duncan possesses the laws of order, and he will not easily break the rules of order.

Upon hearing this, the Three Corpses became excited and, looking quite demonic, laughed loudly, "It should have been done long ago."

"Grinning and chirping!"

"I have no idea what you're up to! If I had your power and authority, I would have made those who obey me prosper and those who defy me perish long ago."

Duncan is very restrained in saying "I don't eat beef".

The Three Corpses, on the other hand, is truly arrogant and rampant when he gains power. His personality is a collection of the negative aspects of his old self. To put it bluntly, he is an even more arrogant Homelander, possessing most of the negative aspects of human nature.

The more cowardly it was in front of Duncan, the more arrogant the Three Corpses are now!
Cut it down.

Duncan is incomplete now, since he didn't cultivate to become an immortal.

A dragon roared.

Upon hearing the command, the black dragon soared through the clouds and headed from Jiangzhou toward Longhu Mountain. Duncan stood proudly on the dragon's head, looking down at the land of China below. His clothes fluttered in the wind, just like the ancestral dragon touring the mountains and rivers of China. The three corpses beside him imitated him, standing with their hands behind their backs, but they looked more like petty people who had become arrogant and unruly after gaining power.

All the power of the Three Corpses originates from himself; otherwise, how much supernatural power could the Three Corpses, formed from the old self of an ordinary person, possess?

Longhu Mountain.

A dragon's roar shook the Celestial Master's Mansion. Above the churning clouds, the enormous figure of a black dragon slowly emerged. Duncan stood expressionlessly on the dragon's head, looking down at the Celestial Masters who were rushing out in panic. His gaze fell on the leader, the thirtieth Celestial Master.

"Who dares to trespass on the Celestial Master's Mansion?" a loud shout rang out.

Duncan remained expressionless, reached out and grabbed at the sky, and with a deafening roar of thunder, a bolt of lightning descended from the heavens.

Five thunder rectification!

boom.

A golden light appeared on the Taoist's body, but it shattered the next second. He was struck by lightning and was cooked to a crisp, his body charred on the outside and tender on the inside. He was dead beyond any doubt.

Behind Duncan, wisps of spatial rifts seemed to appear, like a shattered mirror, an extended net of void, with the faint phantoms of extraterrestrial demons behind them, but they dared not step into the real world, for to enter would mean certain death.

Shatter the void.

The Celestial Master of this generation was extremely shocked. Faced with Duncan's renewed attack, he summoned the magical artifact behind him, and strange phenomena appeared in the hall, with a faint phantom of a True Lord gathering.

"The Jiangzhou dike breach caused countless deaths and injuries on both banks. Is the Celestial Master's Mansion aware of this?" Duncan asked calmly.

True Words and Laws!

Those present hesitated, and the leading Taoist priest opened his mouth as if to defend himself, but for some reason, what came out was not what he wanted to say at all. "I understand."

That's good.

Duncan nodded calmly, then reached out and grabbed at the sky again. Countless bolts of lightning, like mad snakes, rained down from the heavens, giving these people no chance to argue.

The phantoms of the three corpses floated in mid-air, looking gloating.

"He possessed all sorts of supernatural powers and magic, yet he sat idly by and watched as the world's people suffered."

"Deserved punishment!"

"The ancestral temple of Taoism allows the Jade Emperor to steal the secrets and destiny of heaven."

"Deserved punishment!"

"Today, in the name of the Way of Peace, we will rectify the source, carry out the punishment on behalf of Heaven, and severely punish the Celestial Masters Sect!"

Rumble!
One after another, divine lightning bolts descended from the sky.

As if venting its anger, the heavens unleashed a barrage of lightning, causing even the Celestial Master's Mansion to collapse. Many of the leading experts from the mansion died instantly, while the Celestial Master at the forefront, having withstood nine bolts of lightning, was left with nothing but an empty shell.

The current generation of Taoist masters has died.

The divine lightning that Duncan summoned almost shattered his soul!

The entire generation of Celestial Masters masters perished, with only a significant number of the younger generation surviving.

"Master Zhang."

Duncan stood atop the dragon's head, gazing at a phantom image of a deity in the distant hall, and calmly declared, "I wish to contend with the Jade Emperor for the throne!"

"It's best if the Celestial Masters sect doesn't get involved."

Otherwise, the entire Celestial Master's Mansion would have been destroyed today, and Longhu Mountain would have been flattened.

Duncan arrived on a dragon.

All for the sake of four words: "to relieve the people's suffering and punish the guilty!"
All rules no longer mattered; Duncan no longer cared about casualties and completely broke ties with both Buddhism and Taoism.

"kill!"

"Cool!"

"It's long overdue for a massacre!"

"What are you afraid of?"

"Even if a celestial demon from beyond the realm descends, what does it have to do with you?"

"You are in charge of the Treasure Mystic Grotto-Heaven. Even if countless demons wreak havoc in the world, you can still send your important people to the grotto-heaven for safety. What do the lives and deaths of others have to do with you?"

The three corpses were excitedly frantic, wishing they could be the ones to show off their divine power in front of everyone, but after being glanced at by Duncan's murderous gaze, they immediately became as obedient as quails.

If he possessed this human form, he would have massacred Longhu Mountain today!
"Shut up!"

Duncan's primordial spirit phantom appeared, and the three corpses instantly shut up, but their expressions remained excited, as if they were thinking about what they should do with such supernatural power.

Duncan looked down at the trembling crowd of the Celestial Master's Mansion, gazed at the heavens, calculated with his fingers, and then pointed to a young junior with an impressive demeanor, saying, "You have rendered meritorious service to the people."

"He should become the next generation's Celestial Master."

Follow your words.

As Duncan identified the next generation of Celestial Masters, the phantom of the divine statue also emitted a golden light, which landed on the overjoyed young man.

What inheritance, what rules, it's all bullshit.

Duncan flipped the table and said that whoever is the Celestial Master will be the next Celestial Master, and they don't even need to have the surname Zhang.

"The Celestial Masters lineage will immediately descend the mountain to deliver the souls of the dead and provide relief to the disaster victims."

"Those who disobey will be cast into the deepest hell, never to be reborn!"

A dragon roared.

The black dragon's figure soared into the sky, Duncan's cold gaze looking down at everyone. He rode the dragon and flew towards the other mountain gates of the three talisman sects.

Shangqing School.

This school originated from Yang Xi and Xu Mi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, with the *Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing* as its fundamental classic. After Tao Hongjing retired to Maoshan, he perfected the genealogy of immortals and compiled the *Zhenling Weiye Tu*, which is also the first record of the Jade Emperor and the Supreme Jade Emperor in the *Zhenling Weiye Tu*.

In other words, the Jade Emperor Daojun truly appeared in the pantheon of Taoist immortals around 530 AD.

This generation is even lower than that of figures from the Three Kingdoms period.

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Supreme God of Heaven was the embodiment of natural law, while the Jade Emperor was a personified deity within the Taoist system. The two were officially merged in the Song dynasty, after which the Jade Emperor gradually replaced the concept of the Supreme God of Heaven.

After the introduction of monotheism, the word "God" was used to translate Jehovah, leading many to believe that God is a Western concept.

"The Three Schools of Talismans!"

"Jie Jie!"

"Don't even think about running away!"

The three corpses looked arrogant, as if they were about to overturn the table and start a massacre, already enjoying themselves.
