Under One Person: My Inner Realm Connects to All Worlds!

Chapter 124 Board Meetings
The Bodhi tree once again shone with brilliant golden light, its roots growing wildly and penetrating deep into the earth's veins, forcibly extracting the turbid essence from them.

"Ah! You're asking for it!"

Sensing the earth's veins being shaken, the turbid black dragon flew into a rage, flung aside the five-colored divine dragon, and pounced towards Han Yun!

"Internal vision, suppress!"

Han Yun's shout was a call for the true inner space. Since obtaining the inner space, he had never truly tried to use it to suppress the power of others.

Today, it has finally come to fruition.

Suddenly, an invisible force descended, as if the entire underground space was being gripped by an invisible hand, and even the air itself seemed to freeze.

The black dragon's fighting movements abruptly stopped in mid-air, like an insect frozen in amber.

For the first time, terror appeared in the black dragon's crimson eyes. It twisted its body frantically, only to find that it couldn't even move a single scale.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the five dragon spirits formed a formation and surrounded the black dragon.

"We are all spirits born from dragon veins, why are you helping humans?"

The black dragon was filled with shock and rage, but then it saw the five dragons open their mouths at the same time, and the five primordial dragon energies intertwined to form a net, binding it tightly.

Han Yun seized the opportunity, his right hand making a grasping motion. Suddenly, the golden-veined glazed Bodhi tree in his inner world rose from the ground, transforming into a long, glazed, golden sword that fell into his hand. The sword was engraved with mountains and rivers, and its blade flowed with the light of the sun, moon, and stars.

"cut!"

A single, simple word, yet it seems to contain the profound truths of the universe.

As the sword light passed, the black dragon let out a mournful howl, its body, formed from turbid energy, beginning to disintegrate inch by inch. The black and red malevolent energy, upon encountering the sword light, melted away as quickly as snow meeting the blazing sun.

"I am not reconciled! I have nurtured all living beings, and humanity has wronged me for thousands of years. Why..." The black dragon's roar gradually weakened, eventually turning into countless turbid breaths that scattered throughout the inner space.

Han Yun's expression was complicated, and he let out a long sigh.

From its perspective, it has done nothing wrong; the fault always lies with humanity. It is humanity's destruction of nature that has led to its birth.

However, since Han Yun is human, he must ensure the safety of humanity. Otherwise, if he is allowed to leave this place and take revenge on humanity, countless people will likely suffer.

Fortunately, Han Yun used his inner space to cover this place; otherwise, judging from the commotion just now, an earthquake would probably have occurred already. Don't forget, Mount Li is very close to Chang'an.

As the turbid black dragon dissipated, the entire underground space suddenly fell into an eerie silence. The surging black and red turbid energy, as if its soul had been ripped away, slowly settled down, transforming into wisps of black smoke deep within the earth's veins.

The golden light of the Bodhi tree shone ever brighter, its roots continuing to penetrate deeper into the earth, purifying the remaining impurities. Five dragons circled around Han Yun, their low roars seeming to mourn the passing of their kind.

The original Five Elements Qi Formation, the Twelve Golden Men, the Lu Duan corpse, etc., were all taken into Han Yun's inner space.

Old Meng struggled to his feet, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it... over?"

Old Meng asked anxiously, "Mr. Han, are you alright?"

Han Yun snapped out of his daze and shook his head: "We should go up now."

When the two returned to the ground, the east was already turning a pale white. Mount Li was shrouded in morning mist, resembling a sleeping azure dragon.

When the people waiting on the ground saw the two return, they quickly went up to them and asked about the situation of their search.

Old Meng simply shook his head: "I'll report this to President Hua separately. Go back now!"

-----

All-in-one, Northwest Regional Headquarters.

Hua Feng looked at the report Lao Meng submitted and felt that Lao Meng was telling a story. It mentioned the God of Slaughter Bai Qi, the Twelve Golden Men, the Qi Bureau, and even Qin Shi Huang suppressing the earth's turbid energy to secure a thousand years of peace. "Lao Meng, are you sure you didn't make any mistakes?"

Hua Feng rubbed his forehead and asked.

Old Meng's glasses revealed an unusual seriousness: "President Hua, I saw all of this with my own eyes, there is absolutely no exaggeration."

"Ugh!"

Hua Feng looked at the thin stack of reports and felt an immense weight on them: "Report it. Only the board of directors can decide on this matter."

-----

Bincheng, the headquarters of Nadutong.

After confirming the three points, Zhao Fangxu immediately convened a board meeting. However, during the meeting, he only explained the matter of the earth vein's turbid breath and did not mention Han Yun.

"Chairman Bi, it was your proposal to destroy the mountains and ley lines that had the potential to become spirits. Over the years, General Mountain, Sleeping Ox Ridge, Golden Toad Peak..."

"You personally ordered them to be blown up. I want to know if there have been any backlashes after these actions?" Zhao Fangxu pushed up his glasses and looked sharply at Bi Youlong sitting opposite him.

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly froze. Bi Youlong's face was gloomy, and the rhythm of his knuckles tapping on the table betrayed his inner turmoil.

"Chairman Zhao, what do you mean by that? The decision was unanimously approved by the board of directors. The abnormal energy fluctuations of those mountains and ley lines have seriously threatened the safety of the surrounding people. Demolition is the most effective way to deal with it."

"But the Lishan incident proves that violent suppression will only allow the turmoil to accumulate deeper."

Huang Boren suddenly interjected: "The resentment of that dragon spirit stems from humanity's destruction and suppression of the earth's veins."

Bi Youlong slammed his fist on the table and stood up abruptly: "Are we just going to let these potentially sentient mountains threaten social stability?"

"Don't forget, the five dragons of Mianshan serve as a cautionary tale. Once these naturally formed spirits take shape, who will be responsible for the losses they cause if they are allowed to run rampant?"

"Is it you, or me?"

"No one can bear this responsibility!"

Zhao Fangxu slowly took off his glasses, wiped the lenses with the corner of his clothes, and said in a gentle tone: "Alright, Chairman Bi has good reason to do this, but there is an old saying: 'To punish someone without teaching them is cruelty; to punish someone who is not reformed after being taught is the way of the king!'"

“Chairman Zhao!” Bi Youlong couldn’t help but call out.

"Okay, I understand what you mean!"

Zhao Fangxu waved his hand, and the holographic projection in the conference room lit up, displaying a map of China.

A dozen or so red dots flashed on the mountain and ley line nodes, each marked with a date and event number.

"Over the past twenty years, we have handled seventeen cases of abnormal mountain and ley lineage events."

Zhao Fangxu put his glasses back on: "Fourteen of these incidents occurred after large-scale human development, when abnormal energy fluctuations were detected, leading to the destruction measures taken."

"This shows that human activities are closely related to the formation of the earth's veins and turbid energy."

The meeting room was silent, save for the soft hum of the holographic projection. The directors stared at the glaring red dots on the map, their expressions varied.

“I propose the establishment of a special investigation team,” Huang Boren broke the silence, “to conduct a retrospective investigation into the handling of ley lines over the past twenty years and assess the subsequent impact.”

Bi Youlong sneered: "Chairman Huang, are you trying to bring up old grievances?"
