Shennong Daojun.

Chapter 504 Declaration of War and Action, the words of Martial God Yan Ao!

The feud between Zhao Xing and Carlos has a long history, dating back to when Zhao Xing participated in the Primal Conference.

At that time, Zhao Xing was too weak. Even though the territory conquered by the Great Zhou was destroyed by Lord Rainbow Moon, the agent of the Carlos family, he could only tolerate it.

At that time, the Empire's large-scale development plan for the wasteland had not yet begun, so the conflict of interest that occurred in the Annihilation Corridor was not significant.

Then they bought the development rights for the Annihilation Star Path from Ruin Carlos.

Ruin Carlos once sent someone to find Zhao Xing, asking to rejoin the development and get a share of the profits, but Zhao Xing ruthlessly refused.

Because at that time he already had Hongshan Emperor, Five Poisons Emperor, Lushan Emperor, and Zuo Qiyu as shareholders.

Bowei attended all thirty-two Dharma assemblies, so even if someone wanted to cause trouble, they couldn't.

After finding Meng Wudang, the backer of the Martial God Temple, Zhao Xing thought the Carlos family wouldn't have any further ideas.

However, according to this intelligence, ever since their main body went missing and their clones only acted according to predetermined goals, the Carlos family has started to have designs on them again.

This is because the benefits generated along the Ancient Path of Annihilation are so great that they have even attracted the interest of Venerable Carlos.

However, Zhao Xing, the actual controller, disappeared without a trace. As a result, during the two thousand years that Zhao Xing was missing, the Carlos family took two relatively serious actions.

They wanted to kick Da Zhou and Zhao Xing out of the game and gain some of the rights to the Annihilation Star Ancient Path.

"Ji Si, what's the story behind this intelligence?" Zhao Xing immediately found Ji Si and asked about the situation back then.

“Grand Minister of Agriculture, at that time, Wudu and Hongshan were still breaking through to become demigods, while the Carlos family, a demigod family, was very powerful. In the end, I had to ask Meng Wu of the Martial God Temple for help. With his intervention, we were able to get through this ordeal.”

"After that, we didn't encounter any more military attacks, but instead, the attacks turned into economic ones," Ji Si recalled.

"With their enormous financial advantage, the Carlos family began to acquire Da Zhou's upstream and downstream industrial chains at home and abroad, and also bought our debts at a premium."

"This has resulted in a massive commercial crackdown on us."

"In the middle two hundred years of the 1998 solar years of the Desolate Domain 2nd Era, the materials used by our Annihilation Star Ancient Path for Dao soldiers, pills, refining materials, weaving bureaus... except for plant-based raw materials and military types, as well as the star continent materials supplied by the Primordial Hill, which did not experience abnormal price increases, almost all of the rest have increased in price by more than fifty times."

Ji Si sighed, "If it weren't for the huge gains from that time at the cave, and the fact that the Grand Minister of Agriculture left ample funds, we would have collapsed in the first wave of the siege."

"Afterwards, the Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce increased the shareholding ratio of Emperor Bi Sui, and with the combined efforts of the Grand Minister of Agriculture's friends in the Primordial Realm, we finally stabilized the supply of daily necessities, but the development progress also slowed down."

Zhao Xing listened with a gloomy expression. The military attack had been blocked by Emperor Mengwu, but Mengwu was powerless to intervene in this commercial activity targeting the Great Zhou.

In this capital war, it would be incredibly easy for the well-established Carlos family to short-sell the Great Zhou.

"We reduced our debt ratio, cut many businesses, and adhered to a steady and pragmatic approach, giving the Carlos family no further chances. We managed to survive for fifty difficult years."

"After that, the Carlos family intensified their crackdown. This time, Senior Zuo and Senior Lushan had no choice but to get involved, and even Senior Hongshan and Senior Wudu interrupted their seclusion."

"Even so, we are still at a disadvantage in this encirclement and suppression. A large number of projects have been interrupted as a result. Only the exploration route you originally planned has been left, because we cooperated with the Temple of Martial God and there were no problems."

As Zhao Xing merged with the memories of the 'Annihilation Star Avatar,' a brutal financial war immediately flashed through his mind.

As the founding demigod family, the Carlos family's influence is undeniable. This is not only a battle between the Great Zhou and the Carlos family, but also a struggle between the old and new powerful families.

Although the Great Zhou became rich overnight after excavating more than 3,000 cave dwellings, it was still not a financial behemoth compared to an epoch-making family like Carlos. Even though the Five Poison Emperor, Zuo Qiyu, and Hongshan Emperor had all their friends and allies, they were still at a disadvantage.

At its most intense, the magic arrays and mechanisms on the Annihilation Star Ancient Road would lose 10 Five Emperor Coins every day they operated, which was equivalent to an Emperor-level being bankrupt every day!
The Carlos family used this method—killing without shedding blood—to force Da Zhou and Zhao Xing to make concessions and share the spoils.

"The turning point came seventy-eight years later when two primordial realms and one annihilation realm were discovered in succession on the Annihilation Star Ancient Road," Ji Si said.

"This is the second major discovery since the cross-domain ship and the cave dwelling inheritance were discovered."

"Ten years later, I, Emperor Hongshan, Emperor Wudu, and Emperor Lushan all entered the ranks of demigods."

"Because of this gain and the increase in strength, the Carlos family realized that they could no longer kill us economically. Emperor Mengwu mediated between them, so this crisis was resolved."

Recalling this invisible war, Zhao Xing couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "The Great Zhou was truly destined to survive. If it had discovered those three small worlds a few years later, it probably wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"It was my fate to survive," Ji Si said, somewhat dazed. "If it had been any later, it would have been all over."

“We survived that time, but we also felt the power of the Carlos family, so this information is just for our records, and we are powerless to do anything in retaliation.”

"The Carlos family is going too far!" Zhao Xing immediately gathered the key personnel together for a discussion on cause and effect.

hum~
The Five Poisons Venerable, the Hongshan Venerable, and the Lushan Venerable each sent forth an incarnation of cause and effect.

Upon seeing Ji Si, they all nodded to her.

"Boy, before you talk about Carlos, I have to tell you something first," the Five Poisons Venerable said, pointing at Ji Si.

“Back then, your original self was not here. Of the demigod resources that should have been reserved for you, one portion was given to Ji Si. I, Emperor Hongshan, including Bi Sui and Zuo Qiyu, all agreed to this.”

"He led the Great Zhou to victory in the vast majority of the battles at the causal level during that encirclement and suppression campaign."

"He even broke through the ninth True Spirit Tribulation because of this."

Zhao Xing was somewhat taken aback: "Ji Si, why didn't you say anything?"

Ji Si shook her head and said, "Grand Minister of Agriculture, I was just lucky; it's nothing special."

“Ji Si doesn’t take credit for this, but we should speak up for him to avoid any misunderstandings,” Wu Du said.

“That’s right.” Emperor Bi Sui nodded: “That business war affected multiple industries, covered a large part of the empire, and impacted seven or eight top-tier star systems.”

"Business activities also represent the intertwined fates of countless people."

"At that time, in your Great Zhou Dynasty, Ji Si was the main decision-maker!"

“At that time, Hongshan, Wudu, and I could only be considered as assistants, because the main parties to the mining rights were Da Zhou and you.”

"Because no matter what, the cause and effect of countless business actions will inevitably feed back or back onto the Great Zhou, and no one else can take that place."

Emperor Hongshan nodded: "At that time, the Great Zhou only had three paths: either compromise with the Carlos family and become their dog."

"Either you fight it out, or if you lose, you'll be doomed."

"If you can survive, it's equivalent to passing through a true spiritual tribulation."

"When the karma of countless people is tied to Ji Si, even the slightest mistake in Ji Si's decision could lead to the destruction and death of countless families... The karmic backlash would be absolutely terrifying."

A scene immediately flashed through Zhao Xing's mind: countless times in the dead of night, Ji Si stood in the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, bearing the karma and fate of countless people, while also facing attacks from countless threads of karma.

This battle of cause and effect... is no less intense than the battle of cause and effect that Lao Qing, Wei Tianchen, Bowei, the demon race, and the Celestial Master's Mansion fought on him.

Countless nights, Ji Si would be forced to enter her dreams to heal, only to wake up in terror countless times.

During this time, he even took the time to ask Yang Baihe to find him and to speak with Wang Tianzhi...

Thinking of this, Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh, "Ji Si, you've worked hard."

He didn't bow to Ji Si; there was no need for it. Their bond was undeniable.

Of course, the feedback from surviving this battle was also very strong, even enough to allow Ji Si to break through the ninth True Spirit Tribulation and become a demigod fate master.

After using resources, Ji Si became a tenth-rank Fate Master and a ninth-rank Historian in just over two thousand years.

"Fortunately, I have not disappointed the Grand Minister of Agriculture and His Majesty's expectations." Ji Si replied lightly, as if it were a distant past.

“If you suffer a loss, there’s no reason not to retaliate.” Zhao Xing looked at Ji Si, Wu Du, Hong Shan, and the others.

"Now that I'm back, teachers, are you willing to support me and fight the Carlos family again?"

"Good disciple, I've been waiting for you to say that!" The Five Poisons Emperor was overjoyed. "These hairless bastards forced me out of seclusion once, and they've been defecating and pissing on my head. I've been holding this in for a thousand years! I've never endured this long before!"

Wu Du seemed very excited: "Hongshan Lao, are you in or not?"

“I haven’t fought anyone in a long time, I value peace above all else…” Venerable Hongshan said slowly.

"Hongshan Lao, stop pretending. Don't think I don't know how you got your title of Eight-Armed Demon God back then."

Venerable Hongshan sighed and said, "That was a long time ago."

"Enough with the nonsense, just tell me if you're going to do it or not."

Venerable Hongshan looked at Zhao Xing: "Zhao Xing, of course I'm willing to help you."

"However, I am a person from the Ancient Hill, and it is ultimately not appropriate for me to interfere in the internal struggles of the empire. As I just said, the Great Zhou and you are the main players."

"You must face the onslaught of the Carlos family head-on..."

Venerable Hongshan's words have made his stance clear: he is willing to help, but he is also worried about whether Zhao Xing can withstand the pressure.

Upon hearing Venerable Hongshan's words, Zhao Xing immediately began inserting needles into himself.

While inserting it, he said, "Teacher, seniors, I am now a ninth-order demigod, but... Boom!"

The surging energy engulfed Zhao Xing, and then a large hand, entirely dark black with a singularity in its palm, appeared.

The next second, Zhao Xing completed his transformation, emerging from the flames with horns, abundant hair, powerful muscles, and the Nine Ze Secret Pattern surrounding his body.

"Now, I am a tenth-order demigod! I can maintain this state for at least three days, thanks to the changes brought about by the Heavenly Transformation Needle."

Zhao Xing understood that to fight as a group, one had to be strong enough on their own, so he immediately revealed some of his trump cards.

"That's not all!" Zhao Xing roared, unleashing the power of four magics: Red Lotus, Azure Lotus, Azure Sea, and Mysterious Marriage.

The body of the Nine Ze Divine Descendant underwent another astonishing change. Its hair and horns shrank, making it more human-like. The muscle lines of its body, as well as the fluctuations of its qi and origin, became even more perfect.

"Now, I am at the peak of the eleventh rank!" Zhao Xing's bloodshot eyes shone with powerful confidence.

This enhancement stems from the four types of magical power, and only the body of the Nine Ze Divine Descendants can receive the amplification from the simultaneous fusion of the four types of magical power.

“I can maintain this condition for more than half a month,” Zhao Xing said.

"Not only that, I also obtained Wei Tianchen's entire legacy, including the five major divine medicine series."

"Teacher Hongshan, would you like to check on my condition after taking the medication?"

Even though Emperor Hongshan was only present as an incarnation of cause and effect, he couldn't help but be shocked by Zhao Xing's aura.

At the peak of the eleventh rank, this level of strength has already caught up with his!

He is only one level away from the Five Poisons Emperor and the Lushan Emperor.

And what if he takes drugs? Emperor Hongshan has heard of Wei Tianchen's five divine medicines.

The maximum increase in strength is three levels!
"That's enough, that's enough..." Emperor Hongshan hurriedly stopped Zhao Xing from taking the drug, saying that it would be too wasteful to use a divine medicine just to show off.

"You actually inherited Wei Tianchen's estate?" Venerable Lushan was equally curious about Zhao Xing's experiences.

"He traversed multiple eras, yet he unexpectedly died at your hands."

“No, senior, I didn’t kill him.” Zhao Xing shook his head and transformed back into human form. “It’s just that I can’t go into details about what happened.”

"Hmm." Venerable Lushan nodded. "I have no objections either."

As long as Zhao Xing isn't acting impulsively, he's naturally willing to support him.

Otherwise, we can endure it for a thousand years or so, so there's no rush.

Zhao Xing's personal safety is the top priority.

Bi Sui Emperor asked, "Zhao Xing, what do you plan to do?"

After reaching a consensus, the next step was to inquire about the plan.

Zhao Xing held the two intelligence reports in his hand: "We will retaliate in kind to the Carlos family, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth."

“He ambushed us once, so I’ll ambush him once too. When the Yan Shen military intervenes, or when the higher-ups intervene, we’ll switch to a business war to encircle and annihilate him.”

Zhao Xing also had some understanding of the Crimson Star Emperor; the Emperor did not concern himself with battles below the Divine Realm.

For the emperor, apart from those who are exceptionally talented and monstrous, he would not give them a second glance. Conflict is beneficial to maintaining the vitality of the empire and preventing the social hierarchy from becoming completely solidified.

Zhao Xing had also discerned this from Yu Shenzhou's experience.

However, the empire has more than one god-level being. The Great Emperor, being a god-king, would not concern himself with such trivial matters; there must be other gods who would take notice.

For example, the Martial God in the Yanshen Galaxy might intervene if the scope of the conflict becomes too large and the situation escalates.

It can be seen from Meng Wu's actions back then that Meng Wu represented the will of the God of Hell. It was Meng Wu who twice forced the Carlos family to switch from military action to business warfare.

This should be the same for the Carlos family and for himself. Zhao Xing doesn't expect preferential treatment, but he just wants relative fairness.

He believed he deserved this respect because Gu Luohe's previous words gave him the confidence to do so, as they implied that he had been included in the candidate list for the Divine Realm!
“In the first phase, only I and the people from Da Zhou will be doing it,” Zhao Xing said. “For now, only the teacher and a few seniors know about it.”

This confirms the main body: whether it's a war of cause and effect, a war of force, or a subsequent business war, Zhao Xing and Da Zhou will be the main leaders.

If Venerable Hongshan were the main subject, or if the Five Poisons were the main subject, then the nature of the matter would change.

Wudu doesn't have his own family or power. He is the ruler of the Primordial Realm. If he becomes the main body, it will turn into a struggle between two major official institutions, which is obviously inappropriate.

If the Venerable Master of Hongshan or Lushan were to take the lead, it would turn into an external conflict.

Zhao Xing is now going to stir up trouble, and of course he has to take on the responsibility.

"In the second phase, I will inform all partners and all my friends that those who have manpower, money, or strength can contribute."

"Then we'll see whether the Carlos family is more stubborn or we are."

The next group of old monsters, along with Zhao Xing and Ji Si, began to refine the details.

"First, we need to confirm whether the target of the retaliation is a main branch or a sub-branch of the Carlos family?"

“To impose no restrictions is to declare war on the entire Carlos family,” Zhao Xing said.

“The ancestor of the Carlos family was at least a fifteenth-order demigod, and he also possessed quite a few divine artifacts,” Venerable Lushan said.

"Just an old man on his deathbed! Does he dare to fight with all his might? Having lived this long, if he dares to fight with all his might, he will immediately trigger the sixteenth True Spirit Tribulation!"

Wudu sneered, "Besides, we don't have the opportunity to directly engage in armed conflict with him. Once we enter the second stage, he won't be able to make a move."

"Zhao Xing, have you decided how far you want to go? What goals do you want to achieve?"

“The Carlos family has five main branches, and all five of his sons are demigods.” Zhao Xing said calmly, “In the first phase, it would be best if we could kill a few of them, but not within the empire’s territory.”

"In the second phase, we will attack their core businesses. I will draw a line for his five sons: either they become our dogs or they will be wiped out."

"Good, very good! But in that case, the first phase of the plan needs to be sufficiently lethal."

"...I oversee many affairs in the Primordial Realm, and I just happen to know where his two sons will go, hehehe..." The Five Poisons Emperor chuckled sinisterly.

……

Time: 77 star years remain until the Third Era of the Wilderness.

Location: Talam Dynasty, a vassal state of the Empire, Yunni System. At this moment, on the capital administrative planet of the Yunni System, two massive fleets of boundary ships crossed the boundary barrier and landed here.

The planet Yunni is rich in spiritual energy, and its various spiritual mountains, continents, and lakes have been meticulously planned, creating a sense of beauty that is almost artificially woven.

At this moment, the entire Cloud Neon Realm Star was cheering and celebrating, with jubilant crowds everywhere.

Prince Ram stood on the upper floor of the palace, looking down at the scene below, a happy smile on his face.

Because of the Taram Dynasty, it is finally going to be absorbed by the incomparably powerful Red Star Empire.

This is a great achievement obtained through the tireless work of the emperors and all subjects of the Talam dynasty for more than two thousand years.

After all, the strongest person in their dynasty was only a reincarnation-level lord, who would find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Siyue Domain.

"It is said that the Empire calls the Moonlit Domain a desolate wasteland. I wonder how vast and magnificent the outside world is," Prince Ram thought to himself.

He was born relatively late and is currently only at the second stage of the Origin Realm, so he has never been to the outside world.

Their information channels were also blocked, so they didn't know everything. They even used the most rudimentary version of the Star Realm.

"Obtaining the Star Mirror and the right to know is the simplest thing for citizens of the Empire, but for a desolate dynasty like ours, it requires tremendous effort."

"Fortunately, two powerful demigods from the Empire will be coming to our planet Talam today."

"We'll soon be able to go to the Empire for further studies, to enjoy the rich spiritual energy that permeates our bodies, to experience the incredibly powerful Dao soldiers that can shatter the sun with a single blow, and to learn all sorts of powerful and magical spells..."

Prince Ram was lost in thought.

He looked up at the boundary wall in the sky, and through the visible boundary wall, he could see two enormous fleets in the starry sky.

They are said to be from the Carlos family, an elder family of a great empire.

And it was this benevolent family that had the right to incorporate them.

His father and uncle were both favored by the two demigods of this family, and they have come in person today. This is not only to take over their entire dynasty and make their Ratam dynasty a vassal state of the empire, but also to celebrate the glorious moment of taking his father and uncle as disciples.

"I will also have the opportunity to pay my respects later. Which robe should I wear?"

"Hmm, I've heard that the Carlos family will be sending quite a few exceptionally talented women. I hope I can catch the eye of one of them."

Prince Ram began to summon his servants to dress him up.

The grand ceremony begins when the sun reaches its zenith at noon.

Prince Ram stood in the welcoming party at the palace, gazing at the two fleets in the sky.

"As expected of the demigod family of the Empire, I have never seen such a fleet before. Just looking at it gives me a huge sense of oppression, making me tremble involuntarily."

"Our ascension barrier actually dissipated on its own, and the sun and moon shone together... These two stars that gave us our original cultivation were actually frozen in place by their fleet."

As the fleet became clearer, the crowd below began to cheer, surging like a tide.

Prince Ram couldn't help but shout, "The Carlos family, the mighty Carlos family, the great empire!"

……

In the Carlos fleet, on the flagship, two demigods were watching the planet Ratam.

They are Venerable Zhaibing and Venerable Yumu, both second-generation members of the Carlos family and two of the more famous among the five demigods.

It's not because they are the strongest, but because they often travel the world and appear in front of people.

“The two little ones from the Ratam family actually have the rare ‘Sibo God bloodline’. Brother, you’ve really been patient to wait until now to recruit them.”

Venerable Yumu looked at his brother, Venerable Zhaibing.

After developing the Siyue Wasteland and opening up the ancient road, they naturally discovered many indigenous tribes along the way.

This Ratam Planet is one of the regions under the jurisdiction of the Carlos family.

“More than 1,300 years ago, when I passed by, I was only suspicious, so I casually bestowed some treasures and secret techniques upon them.” Venerable Zhaibing sipped his fine wine and said slowly, “Now these two have grown up, and their bloodline power is more obvious.”

"Later, I asked a friend in the Primordial Realm to look at their Dao Diagrams of the Origin of Life, and I found that these two people's Dao Diagrams of the Origin of Life were very similar to those of a certain god in the Tianze Star Region."

Tianze Starfield is a spiritual energy territory that the Empire discovered after opening up the Siyue Wasteland. However, it is not as developed as Xuanling Starfield, and it was only a matter of time before it was conquered.

"Now that they have broken through to the Lord level, it's time to take them away. You take one, and I'll take one."

"Let's see if there's any hope of advancing the power of our bloodline further."

"Yu Mu, don't hold back when the time comes."

“Brother, we are brothers. If I make a discovery, how could I not tell you?” Venerable Yumu assured him.

But what he was really thinking was something else entirely:

If I were to make any discoveries while studying the bloodline of the gods, it would inevitably involve the hope of becoming a god. How could I possibly tell my brother?

The path to godhood is fraught with difficulties and dangers; my brother may be foolish, but I won't be.

"After the apprenticeship ceremony, the tedious process of incorporation will be left to you," Venerable Zhaibing said calmly. "Take them back to the family territory and settle them on any planet you like."

"Just put them anywhere?"

"Well, after all these years, only the two brothers of Ratam have awakened their divine bloodline. The others probably have no hope. I'm too lazy to bother with it."

"Where is my brother going?" Venerable Yumu asked.

"A black abyss has appeared in the Black Sky Wasteland..." Venerable Zhaibing lowered his voice. "Brother, have you heard of the black abyss?"

"Brother, I don't understand what you're talking about. What's there?" Venerable Yumu asked in confusion.

"You really don't know?" Venerable Zhaibing frowned.

“I really don’t know,” Venerable Yumu said sincerely.

"Okay, but don't tell anyone. I overheard my father talking to someone, and it's a top-secret file."

"of course."

“Deep beneath the Black Abyss, legend has it that there is an altar where one can offer sacrifices to a certain god, gain power, and perhaps even become a god…”

"What? Such a thing actually happened?" Venerable Yumu was shocked. "What was used as a sacrifice?"

"I don't know, the sacrificial materials are still unclear... Alright, this is taboo, we can't say any more about evil gods." Venerable Zhaibing suddenly stopped talking.

"Hmm, I shouldn't say too much. Evil gods all deserve to die." Venerable Yumu said, but his mind kept wandering. Sacrifice? Perhaps even becoming a god?

……

Prince Ram looked at the sky and kept shouting.

But just then, his vision suddenly went dark, and he could no longer see anything.

Prince Ram recalled the scene before he went blind: first, the moon seemed to go out, while the sun was expanding extremely.

He was puzzled, but had no idea what had happened.

But the next moment, the light returned, only it was extremely blinding.

Then Prince Ram witnessed a scene he would never forget.

The boundary wall of Ratam had completely disappeared, leaving it exposed to the starlight.

The most powerful and godlike fleet in the starry sky, the largest and foremost ship, had been broken in two.

As for the rest of the fleet, it had completely disappeared.

Countless meteorite-like objects filled the field of vision, obscuring the starry sky.

Prince Ram was almost suffocating.

He looked towards the other half of the starry sky, where he saw a figure surrounded by nine rings of purple runes and engulfed in flames in what appeared to be a starry sky covered in gray stones.

This figure, resembling a demon god, was holding another Carlos family ship in its hand.

"Oh my god..." Prince Ram collapsed to the ground.

……

In the starry sky, Zhao Xing transformed into a descendant of the Nine Ze Gods, frowning as he looked at his palm.

He seized the Carlos family's boundary ship, which contained two demigods of the Carlos family.

It wouldn't actually be difficult to ambush these two members of the Carlos family.

Because these two are the kind of people who frequently travel around the world, many of their schedules are public.

Although this trip was not made public, Wudu knew about it.

Venerable Yumu and Venerable Zhaibing never intended to hide it.

Who would dare to launch a sneak attack on the fleet of a demigod-level family in the Crimson Star Empire? Are they out of their minds?

So Zhao Xing simply laid an ambush on their inevitable route, creating a straw doll clone. When the two of them appeared, he immediately used teleportation to summon his main body.

In his transformed state, he had surpassed the level of these two demigods and successfully launched a sneak attack, destroying most of the World Ship fleet.

Only this one boundary ship, the one where the two Carlos halves were located, had a divine object in its core cabin.

"No wonder I couldn't crush it."

"Fortunately, this is not a divine weapon of the Dao, but a divine weapon of the Power."

Zhao Xing could feel an extremely scorching force resisting him when he exerted his strength.

In other words, the core compartment is not a divine weapon of the Great Dao, but rather the power left behind by a certain god-level being that protects this compartment.

As for who it is, it's not hard to find out.

Zhao Xing examined it carefully and found several characters on the cabin: Yi (逸), She (奢), and Jie (戒).

The inscription is followed by the signature: "Martial God Yan Ao, inscribed in the first year of the Desolate Domain Era."

"Yan Wushen's handwriting?" Zhao Xing's expression changed.

Unexpectedly, the words "Martial God Yan Ao" were found on the cockpit of these two people.

This is not a divine artifact of the Great Dao, yet it surpasses even the divine artifact of the Great Dao!

Yan Wushen is a living martial god. His Great Dao artifact is stronger than the Power artifact in terms of level, but it also depends on who left behind the power.

Zhao Xing absolutely cannot break into this cockpit.

"You bastard, do you know who we are? How dare you attack us!"

"Where did this monster come from, so arrogant and ignorant? We are from the Carlos family..."

Venerable Yumu and Venerable Zhaibing were initially startled, but seeing that Zhao Xing could not tear the cockpit apart, they quickly regained their composure and began to intimidate him.

"You don't know who I am? I am Zhao Xing!" Zhao Xing sneered, "The victim you've all bullied!"

"Zhao Xing? You've become a demigod? How is that possible..." Venerable Yu Mu and Venerable Zhai Bing were both stunned.

The strength Zhao Xing is currently displaying is making them all tremble.

But when did Zhao Xing become a demigod? Wasn't his original self missing?
"More than a thousand years ago, you two sent people to kill my avatar who was in charge of the affairs of the Annihilation Star Ancient Path. How come you two have forgotten so quickly?" Zhao Xing sneered.

“Zhao Xing, don’t talk nonsense.” Venerable Yu Mu said seriously, “We have never done such a thing. On the contrary, it was you who suddenly attacked the nobles of the empire. This is a major taboo and a serious violation of imperial law.”

“That’s right, did you see the words on the cockpit?” Venerable Zhaibing warned, “That’s the power left behind by the God of War Yan, and the God of War Temple is definitely on its way. You can still surrender now.”

"Stop bringing up imperial law," Zhao Xing said coldly. "First of all, this is not imperial territory. Your incorporation is not yet complete, so this is the wilderness. According to the exploration regulations, you can kill freely."

"Secondly... if the Imperial Law couldn't protect me back then, it can't protect you now!"

"Break it for me!"

Zhao Xing roared, and the four colors of magical power merged into his body, causing his power to surge instantly.

The cockpit cracked under Zhao Xing's grip.

The sound of countless claws tearing at the bulkhead terrified the two and a half people inside.

Zhao Xing needed to speed things up; he couldn't drag the Martial God Temple into this.

We need to kill these two quickly, or at least render them incapable of resisting.

"Zhao Xing, you have a bright future ahead of you, don't act impulsively..."

"Zhao Xing, we can talk about this. You're not dead, are you? What happened back then is in the past, we've already made peace..."

The two venerable ones continued to persuade Zhao Xing.

“Reconciliation?” Zhao Xing exclaimed angrily, “You think that’s reconciliation? That’s ridiculous.”

"Boom boom boom~~~"

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Xing unleashed his innate secret technique hundreds of millions of times.

Although the words on it were somewhat blurry, the characters "Martial God Yan Ao" remained firmly in place.

Furthermore, it emitted a faint golden light, seemingly forming some kind of magic array. Zhao Xing could sense that some kind of power was indeed crossing space to come.

"Pong!"

On the final attack, Zhao Xing lost his grip and was sent flying.

Zhao Xing quickly gave chase, but at the same time, the cockpit burst out with golden light, and a person appeared in the void layer next to it.

"Meng Wu?" Zhao Xing's heart sank. He hadn't expected Meng Wu to appear here.

"Great! We're saved!" This thought simultaneously crossed the minds of Venerable Yumu and Venerable Zhaibing.

However, Meng Wu did not look at Zhao Xing, but spoke to Venerable Yu Mu and Venerable Zhai Bing inside.

“Yu Mu, Zhai Bing, the teacher wrote these words back then: Benevolence, Righteousness, Faith, Courage, Propriety, Filial Piety, Loyalty, and Ward Off Pride, Extravagance and Debauchery.”

"Now only these few words remain, which is a disgrace to the teacher... I am acting on the teacher's orders to reclaim the remaining divine power."

"what?"

Venerable Yumu and Venerable Zhaibing were stunned.
