Hunting God Era

Chapter 208 Entangled in worldly affairs, breaking free from depravity with force

"Old Lin!"

Pei Xing never expected that Li Ye would act so quickly and ruthlessly!

Li Ye is a genius, the kind of genius who is exceptional. He has only been cultivating for a short time, but he has already achieved the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, blossoming and bearing fruit, and has reached the fourth realm. However, he and Lin Cheng have mastered the fifth realm of the Cao Bang's original stage.

In this place, no matter how many realms you visit, it's not enough.

But now, with just one move, his best friend of many years has been killed!
It wasn't an illusion. Pei Xing didn't detect any trace of illusion, but at this moment he wished he were truly controlled by the illusion. That would only mean that his skills were lacking and that the other party was a genius enough to influence the Five Realms of True Immortality.

Instead of what it is now, which gives him immense terror.

"You dodged it?"

Li Ye glanced at the powder on the ground, then looked at Pei Xing, whose expression was unpredictable, and laughed, "What a waste."

These words made his expression even more sinister.

Those two Golden Dragon Divine Light Pearls were magical treasures he obtained in his early years after slaying a vicious river dragon. Among many magical treasures, they were considered top-grade. He refined them day and night, making them not only incredibly defensive but also deceptive.

This magical artifact, refined among all living beings, utilizes the power of "wealth to move people's hearts." Once unleashed, it can bewitch people's eyes and minds, leaving them unable to make a move. Those with weak wills will be even more easily swayed, subconsciously ceasing their attacks or showing mercy.

The golden pearl itself was strong enough to withstand a blow from a fifth-realm martial artist, but it shattered into dust before it could do anything.

That axe blow was simply impossible to block!

We can't let him make another move!

Pei Xing didn't know what Li Ye's move would require. It might only be one strike, but it might continue to attack. He dared not gamble, nor did he dare give Li Ye a chance to make a move.

With a flash, he seemed to dart into the void, and in the next instant, he appeared in another place. Then, countless figures appeared in a chaotic manner, filling the space around Li Ye. Whether in the air, on the ground, or even on the water, his figure could be seen everywhere.

Li Ye asked, "Is this the Five Realms of Divine Power?"

"These are my ever-flowing sails, you can't catch them!"

Countless voices emanated from countless people, their combined sound deafening.

This is his great supernatural power, simulating the endless flow of people in the Grand Canal Gang, one person representing all the people in the Grand Canal Gang, flowing through countless streams and turning everywhere.

"In the beginning, I am God!"

The countless figures raised their hands in unison, and the water in the river and the bluestone bricks rose up together, forming stream-shaped objects that looked like whips or tentacles, wrapping around Li Ye from all directions.

This great supernatural power of flowing through thousands of sails has another move, which is based on the karma of all living beings in the history of the Canal Gang. When it is used, it can cause the target to sink into it and be unable to turn back.

His supernatural powers are not about killing, but they are troublesome enough. Once someone gets entangled with him, their actions and strength will be restricted, leaving them with strength but nowhere to use it, and feet but nowhere to walk. No matter how strong their will, they will be unable to break free in this mortal world.

"Oh"

Li Ye could also see clearly that his great supernatural power corresponded to the various aspects of life among the people at the dock; the Canal Gang was no good.

Most of them, like these tentacles, are filled with the feeling of struggling to survive but unable to break free and seeing no hope. Especially in this primordial realm, the rules are completely controlled. Not to mention the four realms, even the five realms from outside are entangled and may not be able to turn the tide.

Pei Xing had anticipated this as well. Li Ye was too ruthless and bloodthirsty. He should first entangle him and then deal with him. If he could be brought to his knees, he would keep him under control and then think of another way.

Since the higher-ups have ordered him to take action, they certainly won't just let it go after a casual attempt. Such a great prodigy is someone that probably no one can afford to suffer losses from.

If all else fails, he'll have no choice but to pack up and run away.

Moreover, we're only suppressing him now. If Old Lin were still alive, with his powerful ability to suppress, combined with my own strength, we could completely suppress this man and prevent him from turning the tables.

What the two of them practiced was the complete set of the Grand Canal Gang's supernatural skills.

But one is enough.
"Sever the things that entangle you; so-called stagnation is nothing more than the bondage of the mind."

Faced with these attacking tentacles, Li Ye simply flicked his hand, and the creatures were sliced ​​into pieces as if cut by a sharp blade.

With Ruyi in control, all supernatural powers are subject to restraint, which naturally leads to the development of the most suitable method of restraint.

"Possessing a sharp weapon and harboring murderous intent, you use the rules of the mortal world to bind people as a supernatural power. Have you ever considered what would happen if they didn't accept this approach?"

Li Ye chuckled and drew a circle with his finger. "If you don't acknowledge it, then there's no room for you to use your supernatural power. Annihilation, Gan Qi."

He formed a circle with his fingers, creating a shockwave that quickly blew outwards. When it reached the afterimages, it shattered them all. Finally, the afterimages turned into a single shadow, and before he could even reach out, he was sliced ​​into pieces, which were then blown away by the wind and turned into dust.

A smile crept onto Li Ye's lips. "It's nothing special."

His supernatural power of annihilation was enough to make the aura here disappear and accurately locate the one and only true body. But now, in addition to his supernatural power, the newly acquired authority has been added, which solves the problem at the same time.

An absolutely indefensible power, coupled with his annihilation, can truly reduce everything to nothingness and oblivion.

“There are still some.”

Li Ye's gaze locked onto the burly man who immediately tried to flee after Li Ye had dealt with Pei Xing. His eyes narrowed, and the burly man took two steps, but his last step missed, and he fell to the ground and turned into dust.

Apart from him, none of the other four-realm martial artists that Li Ye had targeted were left alive; they were all reduced to dust.

In his view, there was no need to keep those who had cultivated the four realms of divine power. Since they were suspected of being bound to the Primordial Beginning, there was no need to go through all that trouble; he could just resolve everything.

And the rest
Li Ye slashed open a crack and shouted to those who hadn't even reacted yet, "Disinfection operation underway! The Canal Gang is being shut down now; Yuan Chu is going to be destroyed. Those of you who remain, those who want to leave, go out and accept orders; those who don't..."

There's no need to say more; at this point, who wouldn't be unwilling? The leaders of the four regions are gone, and so are the two gang leaders.

They don't live here; they were just chosen in the human world to join the Canal Gang for cultivation.

They used to think that the sects were powerful and the authorities wouldn't provoke them, but now that the authorities are cracking down hard, they can still tell the difference.

Li Ye was too lazy to deal with these people. They were all martial artists with low cultivation levels, and there was still a possibility of training them. It could also be considered as adding a bit more strength to Shenzhou.

A group of people rushed towards the crack that Li Ye had opened. Finding it troublesome, he opened a few more openings so that everyone could get out, leaving behind an empty dock and the turbulent river.

"We shouldn't waste these goods."

With a flick of his hand, even the goods piled up on the dock flew into the crack and entered the human world.

As for the goods needed by sects and aristocratic families, he didn't care. The Grand Canal Gang was gone, so where the goods went was none of his business.

If you're so capable, come and ask him for it.

Once the air had cleared, Li Ye glanced around, then inhaled deeply, absorbing all the pollution within the primordial energy. He didn't want the spiritual energy here.

He had planned to attain enlightenment in the fifth realm of Shenzhou, but now that he had absorbed these spiritual essences, he could only attain enlightenment in the Primordial Realm.

This is inconsistent with his plan, and the higher-ups also meant that after the primordial chaos disappeared, Li Ye would then attain enlightenment. Moreover, Li Ye wouldn't even need to search for the spiritual essence himself; there would be some special beings from the Four Realms who would detect the spiritual essence and let Li Ye absorb it first.

As for the method
The Five Realms also have unique methods, which Li Ye is not worried about. Its cultivation method is similar to that of the Four Realms. With his aptitude, he can create the Four Realms methods by meditating for a few more days and using the Four Realms as a basis.

Even the Six Realms, which no one has ever reached, are the same.

"If they really were to unite in one place..."

Li Ye gazed at this land of rivers and lakes and nodded, saying, "Perhaps it is the key to the Six Realms. Maybe one of the above speculations is true. Unfortunately, it is not my path."

Wow!

The river's waters surged and then quickly dried up, taking the dockland with them into nothingness, splitting into large and small fiefdoms that once again settled along the riverbanks.

Soon, the officials who had been monitoring the situation noticed that an ancient dock had appeared on the riverside of Caishi City. A fleet of ships had appeared on the Jiujin River, resembling a shipyard fortress.

Within Ningjiang's territory, the river suddenly widens, and an island appears in the center.

All the fiefdoms, large and small, related to the river, were scattered among the people.

These are all fiefdoms with cultivation characteristics, and they are controlled by the higher authorities.

As long as they fall into the human realm, they will naturally enhance the cultivation energy of the human realm. When there are enough of them, perhaps the Divine Land can be transformed into the Primordial Demon Realm.

Upon seeing Li Ye emerge, the secretary approached him and said with a smile, "This time it was faster than usual. It seems we still have to kill this demon."

He can fight a fourth-level opponent while being in the third level, but he can't fight a fifth-level opponent while being in the fourth level.

“Then find a few more.” Li Ye laughed. “But for now, don’t give them a chance to react. Draw up the list, next one.”

As he said, he wouldn't give those people a chance to catch up and coordinate; he would strike first, before they even knew what was going on, taking down as many as he could.

Especially in the heart of China, we must not leave any hidden dangers.

“I understand, let’s go to the next one.” The secretary didn’t hesitate. After leaving the matter to the relevant local authorities, he took Li Ye to the next destination.

This is also something that needs to be considered.

If we really have to take action, then in the south, not a single family can be spared.

If we can wipe them out before these powerful families and sects can react, leaving only a few big and small ones, that would be perfect. That way, even if they resist, they won't suffer serious damage.

What I fear is that they will find out and then rebel, which would be the most costly outcome.

However, after assessment, the higher-ups did not believe it would come to this, because Li Ye was too efficient in his actions. Their plan to deal with the Canal Gang was only to be slower than Li Ye's three-realm annihilation of sects, which would take some time, but as long as the news was kept under wraps, everything would be fine.

But now it's so fast that it doesn't even take the time it takes to eat a meal, so there's even less to worry about.

At worst, it would just be a coalition of powerful families and sects from one side.

Of the four battlefields chosen—east, west, south, and north—the north was prioritized. It was estimated that the northern forces would unite after Li Ye's campaign was over, allowing for a more controlled fight in terms of casualties and scale.

This plan was also a major undertaking, because if martial artists really rebelled, no one knew what they would do. While Li Ye was completing the plan, they were also arranging their strategies in this regard.

That was not something Li Ye needed to consider; his job was to complete the established plan.

Sometimes, being strong in combat doesn't mean being smart. He didn't think he could come up with any strategies, and he was happy to be used as a tool by his superiors.

Anyway, the treatment is better than if he were to work alone.

Otherwise, if he were to search for demons on his own, it would take forever, and he wouldn't be able to freely travel to the lands of aristocratic families and sects. To some extent, Li Ye is disrupting stability.

But since he was given an imperial edict that "no destruction, no construction," he could naturally act as its commander.

After the canal gang came the salt gang.

The sect that Tian Zhixing once belonged to was different from the Canal Gang, which operated in the Jianghuai province. The Salt Gang, which now operates in the Yuzhang region, has a radiating influence over the Jianghuai region, unlike the Canal Gang which relied on rivers in the early Yuan Dynasty.

The original land of the Salt Gang relied on the 'salt fields' and eventually developed into 'territory'. They did not seek a specific original land; they could use any original land. They used the original original land to accommodate and piece together their territory, spreading across several provinces and merging into one.

Although there are many disciples, they are mostly in the mortal realm, while only those in the four realms can enter the Yuan Chu realm and cultivate in the salt fields.

The disciples under the sect possessed a wide variety of supernatural abilities, unlike the specific ones of the Cao Gang. They came from all walks of life, but the sect leader's great supernatural ability was to gather people together. He was skilled at borrowing a portion of the power of the disciples who cultivated in the early Yuan Dynasty and combining it with the way of war and killing to fight the enemy.

Compared to the canal gangs, this group was far more imposing when they took the initiative to fight.
Then he was enveloped by the brilliant light transformed from Li Ye's sword, rendering him unable to make a move and being torn to pieces.

Along with the Salt Gang, all four realms were shattered by the myriad rays of light transformed from the sword blade.

Having dealt with the Salt Gang, Li Ye, following the list, did not linger and continued to the next location.

No matter how powerful they are, they are all restrained in his presence.

Those who excel at decadence will be broken by force, while those who excel at rallying the masses will be divided, absorbed, and then crushed together.

If it's as if it's made of iron, then put a tight band around its neck and make it suffer agonizingly until it dies.

Those who stand tall and upright use softness to overcome hardness, their swords forming a net to entangle them, and then using the power of shields and axes to wrap them up and kill them.

Those who control water and fire will be dried up and extinguished, their evil intentions eradicated, suppressed by overwhelming force, and then cleaved to death.

Whether it's righteousness or evil, whether it's for the sect or for oneself, in his eyes, not cooperating or surrendering means death.

Li Ye didn't have time to argue with these people, and in order to prevent them from having time to coordinate, the best course of action was to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

When faced with the prevailing trend, it's not about stance, but about whether or not one integrates.

Soon, according to the plan, the sects in the east, west, south, north, and center were almost completely wiped out.

The aristocratic families, on the other hand, were quite compliant. It's unclear whether they weren't as powerful as the sects, or perhaps they were too powerful, as there were differing opinions. Some of these families readily surrendered when Li Ye arrived.

But this timing also alerted the remaining sects to something.
