Ming Dynasty: Emperor Wanshou is cultivating immortality!

Chapter 338: A horrific plague sweeping across the world of immortal cultivation, will immortality die?

Baidi Market.

"Congratulations, sir."

After signing the blood contract, Jiajing and Li Changqing came out of the attic and walked on the streets of the ancient city of Xiuxian.

At this time, the once bustling and bustling ancient city of Xiuxian, Baidi Market, was now extremely deserted with people hurrying around. Occasionally, one or two casual cultivators would appear, all in a hurry.

It seemed that if you stayed on the street for one more second, you would be beheaded in the next moment. Everyone's face revealed tension and vigilance.

Jiajing and Li Changqing naturally knew why these scholars were like this.

In fact, at this point, everyone can see that this war is far from beginning.

For many independent cultivators, no matter what they say, it is just an opportunity, and they even threaten to start a war with the United States.

But every casual cultivator knows in his heart that opportunities are accompanied by infinite terror, and the slightest carelessness could lead to death.

However, for these independent cultivators who are already on the run and living with their heads hanging off their belts, if they try their best, they may become rich for three generations, or even change their destiny.

This time it is the world of cultivating immortals, a rare and unchanging situation since ancient times. All things come into being when there are meridians, and they, the lowest-level cultivators, are like fish and shrimps in the sea.

Only when the top hegemonic forces or the top academies are completely destroyed in this great change, will they be able to get some food and have a full meal!
Those who practice Taoism are actually going against the will of heaven.

But going against the will of heaven is not just about having a courageous heart, but also about waiting for the right opportunity to act.

This war is an opportunity for every independent cultivator or grassroots force, and it must not be missed!

"Well," Jiajing nodded slightly after listening to Li Changqing's congratulations, and then suddenly asked, "What about Mr. Li?"

"Me?" Li Changqing asked, turning his head to look at Jiajing, "I wonder what you are talking about, sir?"

"Mr. Li's initial request was just to help the Li family take a step forward in the competition among the three branches of the academy and be promoted to the top three branches." Jiajing said slowly, "But what about now?"

"You handed over the two pieces of the Spine of Creation in your hands to the Ming Palace in exchange for the opportunity to set up your own business. Does this mean that all your previous efforts and plans have come to naught?"

"Heh," Li Changqing suddenly chuckled after hearing Jiajing's words, and said, "Sir, can't you see what I'm planning?"

After saying that, Li Changqing did not wait for Jiajing to speak, and continued: "I worked for the Li family before, because I was sure that the Li family would eventually be mine."

“Is there anything wrong with me fighting for myself?”

"According to the rules of the patriarchal system, are you sure that you will inherit the Li family? You are only the third son of the Li family." Jiajing said again.

"Hehehe..." However, after hearing what Jiajing said, Li Changqing suddenly laughed in a low voice.

"Sir, why do you have to say such funny things?" As Li Changqing was laughing, his expression suddenly became serious. He stared into the distance and said:

"Because the eldest and second brothers can't survive."

Jiajing naturally heard and understood Li Changqing's words clearly, and of course he also knew that with Li Changqing's planning and ruthlessness, as long as he wanted, the Li family would eventually belong to him.

Just as he said, his eldest brother and second brother could not survive. As for why they could not survive, those who understand will understand.

Considering Li Changqing's ruthlessness and scheming, killing his two brothers was nothing.

But now, the sudden outbreak of this war disrupted all of Li Changqing's deployments.

"If I'm guessing correctly, the Li family or your father should know about the Spine of Creation in your hand." Jiajing didn't even look at Li Changqing, and continued to look forward while speaking.

"Or, you don't see any hope in the Li family because you know you might be abandoned."

"Even at a critical moment, the two pieces of the Spine of Creation in your hands may very likely become the bargaining chip for the survival of the entire Li family. As for you, because you are too deeply tied to the Spine of Creation, you will inevitably be abandoned by the Li family."

"For the Li family, as long as the family still exists, losing a calculating genius is actually nothing."

"Such a talent can always have more."

"The most important thing is that your current cultivation is only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Obviously, with your background, you only have this much strength, which means that your talent for cultivation, or your destiny, is very ordinary."

"But your destiny is nothing to the Li family of the academy. Even if your destiny is extremely bad, you can always change it to a better one."

"Therefore, there is probably only one reason why you were abandoned," Jiajing's serious face relaxed slightly, and he turned his head slightly to look at Li Changqing and said, "Your two brothers, the supporters behind them, are more convincing than your supporters."

"Of course, your two brothers are stronger than you. You are just a tool for the entire Li family."

As Jiajing spoke, Li Changqing's smiling face slowly darkened.

"So from the moment the entire Xiuxian world was plunged into war due to the emergence of the Spine of Creation, you instinctively sensed a threat."

"And this slight danger comes from your distrust of the family."

"And the Li family has not yet revealed the two pieces of the Creation Ridge on your body. Not only has it failed to make you feel grateful to the family and think that your father may be protecting you, but it has made you more certain that your father regards you and the two pieces of the Creation Ridge as the last bargaining chip to save the family in case they cannot survive this war. You will be abandoned without hesitation at the critical moment!"

"You have long understood that you are just a tool of the Li family. So you know that even if there is only a slight possibility, you will never gamble that the Li family will protect you."

"The most important thing is that you don't want all your efforts to be used for others' benefit."

"Rather than doing this, it is better to surrender to the Ming Palace."

"Use the Spine of Creation in your hand as a bargaining chip to find a way out for yourself." Jiajing said slowly: "I would rather let the world betray me than let the world betray me."

"Am I right?"

"Hahaha, great!" After hearing Jiajing's words that seemed to see through him completely from the inside out, Li Changqing suddenly laughed out loud and said, "I would rather let the world betray me than let the world betray me."

"It's a pity there's no wine!"

"Sir, I'm afraid you haven't finished what you are saying." As he spoke, Li Changqing regained his face full of warm smiles, but the words he spoke were chilling to the bone.

"Since you know me so well, you should understand that I will not give up my own things so easily."

"I wish you all the best." Jiajing naturally knew that with Li Changqing's ruthless methods, since he had already decided to betray the academy, he would naturally do it to the extreme.

It is obvious that Li Changqing, who has now defected to the Ming Palace, will inevitably deal a fatal blow to the academy in the upcoming war.

But all this has nothing to do with Jiajing anymore.

The innate weapon has now begun to spread throughout the world of cultivation.

It won’t be long before all the monks will find that they have been infected with a terrible plague targeting their destiny.

Moreover, as the plague continues to spread, it is only a matter of time before the entire world of cultivation is paralyzed.

By then, the entire Ming Dynasty will invade the world of immortal cultivation, and all the resources for immortal cultivation will belong to Jiajing.

These forces in the world of immortal cultivation can fight as they please, but to Jiajing, they are like a group of trapped beasts who have no idea that danger is approaching and have become prey on other people's chopping boards.

"I'm sorry to offend you, sir," Li Changqing paused and said, "Although your choice just now is very reasonable, it still makes me feel a little bit."

"The reason why Mr. Yizhong joined the Ming Palace is not because he has not yet let go of worldly affairs."

"It seems to me that you are acting indifferent. It's as if you have already seen the outcome of everything, and the outcome is already in your control."

"Only in this way will you not care whether to join the Ming Palace or sign a blood contract. It's as if the master already knows the final result, which must be what you want."

At this time, the two had already arrived in front of the teleportation array, and after hearing Li Changqing's words, Jiajing said calmly:

"You are right. My goal is to make the entire world of immortal cultivation submit to me. I want to unify the entire world of immortal cultivation." "Buzz." The space waves began to shake.

Li Changqing, who was outside the space formation, suddenly looked strange after hearing Jiajing's words, and then he suddenly laughed and shook his head, saying:
"I never thought you had such a humorous side. I'm looking forward to it. After this war is over, I can meet you in Ziwei Star Region and have a drink with you."

As he spoke, Li Changqing bowed to Jiajing.

Well, Jiajing spoke his true thoughts without any hesitation, but Li Changqing just took it as a joke.

As smart and scheming as he is, he would never think that Jiajing's goal is to unify the entire world of immortal cultivation.

Because this is simply impossible. Unless the master who created it is resurrected, this is possible.

……

The Great Ming Immortal Sect.

The main peak, above the master's hall.

After leaving Baidi Market, Jiajing returned to the sect and summoned everyone from the cabinet and the sect council.

At the same time, everyone was informed that the Daming Immortal Sect would soon join the Ming Palace and head to the Ziwei Star Region.

As for the fact that Jiajing brought the Ming Immortal Sect to join the Ming Palace and obtained a first-grade star world and ten death stars, no one present had any objection.

In the eyes of the current high-ranking members of the Daming Immortal Sect, this move is tantamount to avoiding the upcoming war that will engulf the entire world of immortal cultivation and better allow the Daming Immortal Sect to survive.

They could all see that the academy would inevitably face a life-and-death battle with those overlord-level giant forces.

Rather than staying here and waiting for the White Horse Academy and those overlord-level forces to eliminate all threats before the real war breaks out, it is better to take this opportunity to leave Arcturus, the center of the war storm.

"Regarding leaving Arcturus and joining the Ming Palace, please feel free to tell us what opinions you have." Jiajing looked at his disciples and elders standing below.

"We will follow the master's orders." Led by Xu Shixing, everyone bowed and saluted.

"Well, go and get ready. In a month, people from the Ming Palace will come to take you away. Let the disciples take their families with them as much as possible." Jiajing looked at Liu Quan and said, "Grand Elder, please stay. I have something to tell you."

"Yes!" Everyone bowed and turned to leave. Song Xinchai patted Liu Quan on the shoulder and turned to leave.

"Follow me." When only Jiajing and Liu Quan were left in the hall, Jiajing gave the order and turned to leave.

The main peak, the back mountain, and the forest path.

"After so many years, the knot in your heart still can't be untied?" Jiajing and Liu Quan were strolling in the woods.

Jiajing still admired Liu Quan very much.

Of course, what Jiajing appreciated was Liu Quan's loyalty to the three Dugu brothers.

If Jiajing could win over such a loyal person and use him for his own benefit, he would be unwilling to give up.

No matter what, the fact that he was able to join the Daming Immortal Sect, and the Daming Immortal Dynasty could have achieved its current success, was inseparable from the kindness of Liu Quan and the three Dugu brothers in recognizing his talents.

This is something that Jiajing could never deny at any time.

This is also the reason why Jiajing never thought of giving up Liu Quan and the Dugu family, and why he accepted Dugu Donglai and Li Yu as his disciples.

He is a selfish, greedy, and result-oriented person. Just as Lu Fang said, he has some feelings in his heart, but not much.

In fact, there are not many times when people are willing to share with others.

However, he was willing to show some kindness to the person who led him on the path of cultivating immortals and allowed him and the entire Ming Dynasty to live another life. The reason was that he was willing.

"I want to solve it, too," Liu Quan grinned, with unspeakable bitterness and helplessness between the beauties, "but every time when it's late at night and everyone is asleep, every time I calm down and want to practice..."

"The faces of the eldest, second and third brothers, as well as Miss Bai, will appear in front of me. They are all dead."

"I am the only one alive. I am the only one who knows the truth, but I am living helplessly. I know who my enemies are, but I cannot avenge them. I cannot even practice cultivation."

"I can only live in misery and be a useless person!"

"The dead are gone, how could I not understand that? But how could the knot in my heart be so easily untied?"

Looking at Liu Quan, who was dressed meticulously and had a look that completely matched the appearance of an elder of an immortal sect, Jiajing said, "The academy will be destroyed, and Li Changqing will die. In the near future, you will deal with them personally."

Hearing Jiajing's words, Liu Quan was stunned, and then seemed to think of something, and looked at Jiajing with excitement.

"No!" Liu Quan suddenly waved his hand and said excitedly: "The reason why the Ming Palace recruited you is entirely because of your Mahayana cultivation."

"As for the Great Ming Immortal Sect, it is nothing in front of such an existence."

"If you participate in this war, you will most likely perish even if you have the cultivation of Mahayana Qi."

"Even if you can survive this war, you can't guarantee that you won't be injured. What should you do if you have no hope of ascending?"

"Only if you are alive and well and join the Ming Palace intact, will they take a fancy to the Great Ming Immortal Sect and protect everyone."

"If you can ascend to the immortal realm, then the Daming Immortal Sect will be protected in the entire human world, and no one will be able to shake it."

"The Great Ming Immortal Sect can also be passed on intactly!"

"The wishes of the boss and his friends can be fulfilled. I will never allow anyone to bear unnecessary burdens or be dragged down because of me. If that happens, I would rather die!"

Looking at the excited Liu Quan, Jiajing laughed out loud, shook his head slightly and said, "You think too much."

"Hmm?" Liu Quan was stunned and was about to ask, but Jiajing raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "You will know when the time comes."

……

Time flies.

Finally, Lingxiao Sect, Zhenwu World, and Ziyang Holy Land, the three overlord-level giant forces went to war with the academy.

At the same time, the other three academies and their overlord-level giant forces, as if they had discussed it beforehand, also started fighting one after another. Suddenly, the war escalated!
At the same time, in some islands outside the four continents, in a corner of the overseas world of immortal cultivation, the plague had already swept across.

"The Immortal Path will die!!!"

On an island where immortals were cultivated, a cultivator who had reached the Nascent Soul stage looked at the corpses scattered all over the sect's ground and roared to the sky.

"Sizzle!" Suddenly, his belly exploded and a bright red vine broke out of his body.

In the blink of an eye, the body of this Nascent Soul stage cultivator was absorbed by the vines, and the vines were covered with human organs.

In a blink of an eye, the vines covered the entire sect's area.

And such a scene, on this island, is not independence, death, plague, and war are raging.

The island was filled with blood mist, as if it was the end of the world.

On some ancient monuments, there are inscriptions everywhere, such as "The Immortal is about to die", which are full of unwillingness and fear.

Everyone knows that this is just the beginning.

However, the four major academies knew nothing about this, or they simply did not take the fact that some cultivators were infected with colds seriously.
