Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

Ruo Jinghong and others were curious about the methods of royal power.

Wang Quan casually remarked, "When the real world colludes with the underworld, even the stone mill spirit can upgrade its authority."

"As the one in charge, I will naturally upgrade my authority!"

Ruo Jinghong and the others' eyes lit up: "With your upgraded privileges, you have a way to deal with them?"

Wang Quan nodded: "That's right!"

Upon hearing this, many Daoist cultivators spoke up, saying, "Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment before unleashing your techniques."

"We just observed the Minotaur's abilities and deduced some methods of spell usage."

"Now is the perfect time to experiment with them."

Wang Quan nodded: "No problem!"

Soon, many Daoist cultivators took action.

In an instant, all sorts of bizarre combinations of spells rained down on the Minotaur.

Some monks even released magical artifacts such as mirrors, eyeballs, and pearls to record the effects of various spells, as well as the methods used by bull-headed demons to counter the spells.

-----------------

Outside the No. 95 mansion, in the darkness, the general, after observing the progress of the war through the crows, smiled slightly: "Sure enough, when in doubt, they release the Minotaur."

"They will solve all problems in the simplest and most violent way."

"Black and white flowers, tell them to speed up the bulldozing of the mansion."

"OK!"

The black-and-white cow sadly contacted the eight remaining bull-headed giants.

At this moment, the general contacted its superior: the Ninth Reincarnation King.

After hearing the battle report, King Hui of the Ninth Round remained silent for a moment: "Arrange for a large army to advance, using Compound No. 95 as the core, and expand outwards."

"We must occupy as many large mansions as possible before dawn."

"Tens of thousands of other cities will participate in the event tonight."

"And your City 95 is the main character in this collaboration."

"The more buildings you occupy, the less pressure there will be elsewhere."

The general was bewildered, not understanding why City No. 95 had become a key point.

But he still nodded vigorously: "No problem!"

"To expand our gains, I need more Minotaur giants."

The Ninth King remained silent for a moment: "They were not easy to create, so I can only arrange ten more for you."

"Thank you, sir!"

The general of the Beggars' Army smiled.

The next instant, he soared into the air, dark clouds churning beneath his feet. Standing atop them, he waved banners: "All troops—attack!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A massive army of beggars emerged from the black smoke like a tidal wave.

They resembled giant, twisting snakes, rushing towards the houses.

Upon seeing this, the general looked up and laughed heartily.

Just then, a crow with two heads came swooping in.

This is the Taoist of Two Crows.

When he saw the general waving the banner, his eyes lit up: "This guy must be a big shot."

"Even if they are not important figures, they are still close confidants of important figures."

"I should go and serve him!"

Thinking of this, he cried out and flew over, "Master, Master, I want to serve you!"

The general of the Beggars' Army was stunned: "What are you? Why have you joined me?"

"And what right do you have to pledge allegiance to me?"

The Two Crows Taoist chuckled, "Master, I am a descendant of the Crow Clan. I admired you greatly when I saw your strong army and your brilliant military strategy, which swept away all enemies. I only regret that I did not meet you sooner, otherwise I would have already joined you and followed you to learn military strategy."

The general laughed heartily: "My military tactics are actually very simple: I only excel at using force openly and fairly, overwhelming the weak with superior numbers!"

"If this is all you're going to learn, you can leave now."

Upon seeing this, the Taoist priest Liangya became even more certain that he was an important person.

His eyes darted around, and he said quickly, "Sir, I used to be a native of Compound No. 95. Now that I see the righteous army descending from the darkness and bringing about a just cause, I am overjoyed."

"Therefore, I have specially brought a great gift for the master: a great gift containing information about the owner of No. 95 compound."

The general was taken aback, then shook his head and smiled: "You've put your heart into it!"

"But I don't need it anymore!"

"Huh?" Two Crows Taoist was bewildered.

Black smoke billowed beneath the general's feet, carrying him high into the sky.

The general stood with his hands behind his back, black smoke billowing around him, his long hair moving without wind, and the plates on his armor swaying quietly, clanging and jingling, exuding a chilling aura.

"What do you see?" The general's eyes were sharp as he looked down at the flames of war below.

The two crows, their eyes darting around, exclaimed with delight, "I see that wherever Master's army marches, none can stop it!"

"I see the master's glorious power sweeping everything away."

He paused for a moment, his gaze falling on the No. 95 compound.

Only a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits remained in the very center; above the courtyard, hundreds of cultivators floated, casting spells to block the Minotaur.

However, the numerous spells cast upon the Minotaur only added a touch of wear and tear to their fur and armor.

No. 95 Compound – Its fate is sealed!

"I also saw that the mansion at No. 95 was about to become ruins!"

Haha!

The general laughed heartily, "Not bad, you do have a good eye!"

"A place that's about to become ruins no longer deserves my attention!"

At this moment, black smoke billowed, and ten more bull-headed giants appeared.

They growled and howled, spewing out plumes of white vapor like giant snakes from their nostrils.

The general's lips curled into a smile, his arms outstretched as if embracing the entire world.

"From this day forward, from this moment forward, from this instant forward, I will sweep across this city; I will make this city bow down beneath my feet!"

"I want to be crowned... as the city lord!"

At this moment, the Two Crows Taoist swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Master, I think I also saw a beam of light!"

The general smiled: "I came to bring light to this filthy city!"

"That's the truth, you don't need to flatter me!"

Glug!

The two crows spread their wings and flapped them forcefully, their bodies soaring into the air: "Master... this vast light descends from the sky... it brings great terror and great danger!"

The general didn't even look up, continuing to survey the land below, and coldly replied, "That's only natural!"

"I am as warm as spring to my own people; but as cruel as winter to my enemies."

"As I represent Haoguang, this is naturally the case!"

"The reason you feel great terror and danger from it is because your heart is not sincere!"

"Therefore, you naturally cannot perceive how warm and magnificent the radiance representing me truly is!"

"Fly away; leave before I unleash my fury upon you!"

"After all... you did call me 'Master' a few times!"

Splash! Splash! Splash!

The two crows frantically flapped their wings, spewing out streams of magical power, casting numerous spells, and even burning their bloodline as they fled.

"You dog of a traitor, you're about to die, and you still dare to be arrogant?"

"You have acted unjustly and acted treacherously; even Heaven cannot bear to watch, and will send down its mighty light to destroy you."

The general was taken aback.

What does that mean?

I was just calling you "Master," how come I'm now a dog rebel?

Could Heaven not stand by and watch?

Will you unleash a blinding light to annihilate me?

Heh, as expected, when traitors can't get any benefits or attention from me, they'll reveal their true nature.

Doesn't he know to be patient for a while, slowly try to please me, and get me to promise him benefits?

Cursing me now?

ridiculous!

If curses are effective... then what's the point of having a beggar army?

He sighed with regret.

Then he saw the Beggars on the ground suddenly stop fighting and stand still, looking up at the sky.

"What's in the sky?"

The general subconsciously looked up, and then his entire mind froze.
