Chapter 634 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
The two places are nearly ten million miles apart. Jiang Mo threw his sword, which was not hindered by any external force and still pierced through the deepest part of the Blood Prison Abyss.
The darkness there was suddenly swept away by the boundless gale, and the towering blood light surged towards the mortal world like waves. An incomparably huge monster, resembling both a snake and a dragon, was coiled there, which was none other than the master of the forbidden zone.
A rare species from ancient times, the Nine Palaces Ruler, whose age and strength are unknown.
At that moment, a vertical sword light pierced through the back of the giant snake, severing its enormous body in half, and thick blood energy leaked out uncontrollably.
An angry roar resounded from the remote part of the Southern Netherworld. At the same time, violent earthquakes occurred throughout the Immortal Realm. The aftershocks of Jiang Mo's attack radiated to the Western Regions, causing the earth to shake and dust to billow.
"Boom!!!"
Endless darkness surged forth once more from the depths of the Blood Prison Abyss, filling the entire abyss. The Lord of the Forbidden Zone remained hidden within, and even though it had been nearly severely injured by a single blow, it dared not emerge to fight Jiang Mo.
There is an irreparable gap between the two.
It should be noted that although the Eastern Wilderness is the weakest of the five regions, the reason why the races there are weak is simply because the seven forbidden zones are terrifyingly strong. They come out to harvest them in every era, making it almost impossible for them to develop normally.
The other four domains, on the contrary, are forces established by various species, which are all relatively strong and able to withstand the erosion of the Dark Forbidden Zone. However, the Dark Forbidden Zone of the four domains is not considered the most top-tier to begin with.
In comparison, the strength of the Eastern Wilderness Life Forbidden Zone is acknowledged throughout the entire Immortal Realm, which is also the reason why major forces have long been unwilling to set foot in this place without authorization.
To this day, Jiang Mo has once again demonstrated to the world the terrifying power of both the Eastern Wilderness Forbidden Zone and his personal strength with absolute power.
Blood Prison Abyss was sunk and was in a state of disarray. Blood-red formations kept emerging, and dark energy continuously repaired it, reinforcing it into the most extreme fortress.
The master of the penalty area completely retreated inside, losing all courage to fight back against Jiang Mo.
On one side is an old monster, weakened by blood and energy, barely clinging to life;
One side is a being in the prime of life, who has just swept through a forbidden zone of life;
There is absolutely no chance of winning.
The ultimate powerhouses of the four regions were all shocked by this scene. It was said that the forbidden creature in the Eastern Wilderness had finally made its move, without any intention of concealing itself, and was openly exposed in front of so many powerful figures.
The previous rumors about him fighting alone against the Imperial Dynasty, the Royal Court, and the Void Sword Sect have been completely confirmed. His terrifying combat power, which made everything pale in comparison, has indeed proven that he broke through the forbidden zone, the Azure Sky Tree.
In an instant, the supreme Dao Lords and Nine Palace Sovereigns of the four regions were all speechless, their eyes fixed on the figure in the void, as if it were an unshakable god.
Jiang Mo lowered his gaze, looking down at the Blood Prison Abyss in the distance. If he wanted, he could continue to fight his way in right now and kill that old snake completely.
With just one move of probing, he knew that the true combat strength of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone was roughly the same as that of the Overlord 'Ji' inside the Azure Tree.
Just as countless gazes from all four realms converged, anticipating Jiang Mo's next move, he chose not to act. Instead, he looked down upon the heavens and earth, as if addressing all that had given him his presence:
"Who else?"
"You want to compete with me?"
"Sword State, the caged bird, I'm taking it today."
These few words resounded through the void, and no ultimate being dared to object.
Perhaps out of consideration for the reputation of the Beast Taming Sect, none of the ultimate beings from the four domains—humans, demons, monsters, or monsters—stood up to explicitly agree with Jiang Mo's statement. Instead, they gradually disappeared, choosing to remain aloof and indifferent.
From beginning to end, apart from the unfortunate Blood Prison Abyss, no other lineage or forbidden zone came to test its strength.
After a few breaths, Jiang Mo's figure vanished into thin air, his divine appearance receding, and the oppressive aura that had shaken the world also disappeared.
..........
"Young friend, this tactic of making an example of someone to scare others is brilliant!"
"I can't believe someone would willingly offer themselves up to be our 'operation,' hahaha!!!"
The evil spirits and the Candle Dragon couldn't help but burst into laughter. They had witnessed the whole thing from not far away and were thoroughly enjoying themselves.
With a single glance and a single sword stroke, he slayed the probing attack of a forbidden zone—how exhilarating! How carefree! Truly a supreme being!
"It's a pity that the time for further cooperation with Yu Shou Qing Cang hasn't come yet, otherwise, I would definitely have captured that forbidden zone overlord."
Jiang Mo said coldly, his eyes flashing with a sharp edge, like a war god who had never been defeated in a hundred battles, giving people an indescribable sense of security.
"However, young friend, your display of skill this time is enough to deter them. In the future, I estimate that no sect or forbidden area in the Immortal Realm will dare to challenge you again."
The Evil Spirit Ancestor couldn't help but beam with pride, saying, "I really did latch onto the right thigh; I can win even while lying down."
"Hopefully."
Jiang Mo remained noncommittal. His current cultivation level was at the peak of the Immortal Realm, but he was still a step away from completely surpassing all living beings.
After all, those slumbering forbidden zones hold countless ancient beings whose power remains unknown.
Out of modesty, Jiang Mo always maintained a deep-seated reverence for them.
No living being can withstand the erosion of time, not even myself. Which of those lords of forbidden zones wasn't a powerful ultimate being?
But faced with the relentless erosion of time, they fell one after another.
Even if it were thousands or tens of thousands of years later, Jiang Mo, who doesn't feel old, could still possess such terrifying combat power. At that time, it would be difficult enough to simply survive, let alone maintain his peak combat power.
Soon, Jiang Mo stopped thinking about these distant thoughts and focused solely on the present.
"go!"
"Let's go to Xianque Prefecture!"
"Boom!!!"
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Mo, without even casting a spell, had countless streams of true qi automatically flow and draw patterns, forming a magnificent void gate that forcibly connected to space hundreds of thousands of miles away.
With just one step, you can travel back and forth between the two places.
This is the freedom that comes after mastering the art of void magic—unrestricted by any realm.
Compared to the sect's founder who acquired the techniques, Jiang Mo's current level of skill has far surpassed that of several levels.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
The three entered the gate and instantly arrived at the second Sword Continent, 'Immortal Palace'.
Upon their arrival, an inexplicable pressure swept across the heavens and earth, covering the dome and spreading to every crevice of the land. All the billions of living beings dwelling here could feel the descent of an unparalleled Dao Lord at this moment, as if the Heavenly Emperor who ruled over all the heavens was inspecting his territory.
"Those of the Holy Bone Throne, come out."
Jiang Mo bluntly stated that, unlike the Beast Taming Sect, the beings on the Holy Bone Throne are intelligent species with humanoid forms and non-human bloodlines.
Furthermore, this force was allied with the Primordial Phoenix Clan, so Jiang Mo didn't bother to be polite to them.
"Boom!"
"Boom!!!"
In an instant, the wind and clouds changed, dark clouds gathered in the sky, golden lightning tore through the sea of clouds for thousands of miles, and a sacred road descended from the sky, continuously spreading outwards. Several mysterious figures slowly appeared at the starting point of the road.
Without exception, they were all ultimate beings of the Holy Bone Throne, possessing formidable strength.
"May I ask, Venerable Master, what brings you here?"
An emissary of the Holy Bone Throne asked calmly, though his mind was tense.
Just now, it also witnessed the terrifying power of this sovereign giant, who was unilaterally attacking the Blood Prison Abyss in the forbidden zone.
The legendary master of the forbidden zone, an existence who has reached the end of the path of cultivation, did not even dare to resist, allowing his dignity to be trampled on, and chose to hide away.
After that, Xuanzun proclaimed that the caged bird in the Sword Continent of the Four Regions belonged to him, and no ultimate being dared to object.
Under such divine might, the envoys of the Holy Bone Throne were already drenched in sweat when they learned that Jiang Mo had arrived. Such a monster was simply beyond their ability to stop.
"I want the Immortal Palace of Sword Continent."
Jiang Mo's seven words were clear and distinct, carrying an unquestionable and defiant authority.
"good....."
Without a moment's hesitation, the envoys, who had roughly guessed Jiang Mo's intentions, immediately chose to back down and handed over Jianzhou Immortal Palace.
Immediately, one of their ultimate beings spoke nervously:
"We apologize for disturbing you. We will depart now and hope that Venerable Master will grant us some time."
"can."
This simple answer brought a huge sigh of relief to the three envoys. Seeing that Jiang Mo did not ask about the Primordial Phoenix Clan, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt fortunate.
Otherwise, they really wouldn't know how to explain themselves.
"Let me give you a piece of advice: it's not too late to sever ties with the Primordial Phoenix Clan."
"The root of the disease will not let them go. Of course, if you insist on blocking it, then we can only deal with it together."
Suddenly, Jiang Mo's words shocked the three envoys so much that their expressions changed drastically.
"Does this mean you, Venerable Xuan, also intend to settle scores with that entire race?"
One of the messengers, barely daring to breathe, asked with trepidation.
"No, their grudges will be settled on their own. I won't interfere. I'm just saying what comes to mind and offering you some advice. After all, your willingness to cooperate in leaving this state is something I should take seriously."
When they heard Jiang Mo promise not to interfere in the purge of the Primordial Sun Phoenix Clan, the three envoys, whose hearts were almost sinking into despair, were pulled back from the brink.
"Alright, since Venerable Xuanzun has no intention of interfering, we will know what to do. Thank you for the reminder."
The three envoys bowed solemnly to Jiang Mo.
The fact that a single Lord of the Forbidden Zone was already enough to give both races a headache, let alone the Lord of the Abyss, meant that the remaining forces of the Holy Bone Throne and the Primordial Refining Sun Phoenix would have absolutely no chance of withstanding such a terrifying force.
"No need. Go and prepare what you need to prepare. This state will be mine soon. I need to set up an array. You should leave as soon as possible."
Jiang Mo waved his hand casually, as if shooing away flies.
However, the envoys stood frozen in place, hesitant to speak. Finally, one of the bolder ones took the initiative to ask:
"We understand and will obey the instructions of the Venerable One. If we may ask again, when we fight against the Ancient Emperor of the Origin in the future, will the Venerable One personally participate in the battle?"
"Unnecessary thoughts. With your two clans, it will be difficult, extremely difficult, to get past the Ancient Emperor of the Root. There is probably no chance for me to intervene. Of course, that arrogant Ancient Emperor wouldn't stoop to begging me."
Jiang Mo smiled faintly and said that was all.
Upon hearing this, the envoys' expressions immediately stiffened. They all understood the implication: once the Ancient Emperor of the Root was weakened and suppressed by the two races, and forced into a desperate situation, as long as the Ancient Emperor swallowed his pride and pleaded with the Xuanzun, there was still a certain possibility of dragging the Lord of Tianyuan down to confront him as well.
"We understand. We apologize for the inconvenience and will take our leave now."
Subsequently, the three ultimate beings of the Holy Bone Throne, like mice before a cat, did not want to linger for even a moment longer, and withdrew from the path that stretched down from the dome. Their figures disappeared in an instant.
Soon, a rumbling sound echoed across the silent land. The vanguard and elite troops of the Holy Bone Throne stationed in the 'Immortal Palace' of Sword Continent marched in perfect unison along the void passage to another region.
In less than half an hour, the vast Immortal Continent was free of any foreign forces.
The remnants of the sword cultivator forces that originally belonged to this place, or the local Daoist masters, sprang up like mushrooms after rain, rushing over at top speed to pay homage to Jiang Mo. They all knelt down and loudly begged for protection.
Looking at the dense crowd, most of whom were martial artists and sword cultivators who hadn't even reached the Dao Lord realm, Jiang Mo didn't make things difficult for them. He swept his gaze over each person and then spoke:
"How you were governed by the Void Sword Sect in the past is a thing of the past."
"From now on, Xianque Prefecture belongs to me and to Tianyuan. You are free to develop, but just do not disrupt the order of this place."
"Yes! We understand!" everyone said in unison.
"Are the cultivation resources offered still the same as before, Venerable Xuanzun?"
A senior elder from a second-rate lineage asked tremblingly.
"How did the Void Sword Sect demand of you in the past?"
Jiang Mo raised an eyebrow and asked, "To be honest, let alone one state, even if all thirty-six states offered him tribute, he still wouldn't care about those cultivation resources."
Resources are ultimately just auxiliary tools. At his level, they are almost useless unless they are the most top-tier natural treasures. And those natural treasures are not something that ordinary cultivators can access, so it is impossible to forcibly demand them.
"Reporting to the Venerable Master, in the past, the Sword Sect required us to pay the following annual tribute: 50% of the cultivation resources collected within the sect each year, plus 10% as a protection tax, totaling 60%."
"My sect accounts for 50%."
"My sect accounts for 70%."
"My clan is 65%."
Several elders from different lineages were recounting the Sword Sect's requirements for them.
The stronger the sect, the more ruthless the exploitation; the weaker the sect, the lighter the exploitation.
Let those who are powerful and have the potential to rise never have the possibility of surpassing us;
