Chapter 289: Ruler’s Presence
Chen Ming sighed, “It seems that on my path of a grand boss all are dust. I can no longer look back, not with King Slayer Aura reaching lvl2!”
A grand boss is a grand boss. As long as I can surpass the storyline, anything goes.
Chen Ming surveyed the battlefield, finding only Second Sect Leader putting up resistance, despite heavily injured.
Chen Ming was a thorough adept of kill-stealing. He couldn’t just let easy spiritual knowledge pass him by.
Since he had some spiritual power left, he flew over, waved his hands and released a punch powered with the Conquering Immortals Art!
It didn’t take long for the injured Second Sect Leader to bite the dust.
With the system lady’s reward in the bag, this amount was like picking trash when compared to his fight with Wu Jiang.
Chen Ming didn’t pursue the thought of wiping the entire demonic sect. They were harmless now, without an Autarch, unable to affect the great scheme of things.
How convenient! Since Li Suyi came here once, then I’ll just put him in charge of the demonic sect.
Chen Ming wasn’t an advocate of slaughter, but peace.
Zi Tianzang came before him, “Alliance Leader, the Demonic Autarchs are all dead. Under the wise and upright leadership of Alliance Leader, we have won against the demonic sect, bringing a brighter dawn for the days to come!”
With the killing of Wu Jiang, Chen Ming’s influence grew unchecked. The Autarchs always regarded him with some fear each time they met him, all thanks to World’s Crown Aura and Ruler’s Presence Aura.
Zhong Tongzi said, “Alliance Leader, how are we to handle the remainder of the evil demonic sect?”
Chen Ming said, “I am a person who does not like war. I don’t massacre people, I am a peace-loving man. As a man of my character, I will stop the continuous fall of the blade. ”
The Autarchs’ eyelids twitched, Peace-loving my ass! Most enemy kills were done by you guys from Yan Mountain!
But in a time like this, no one refuted Chen Ming, “Alliance Leader cares about the land, searching for peace. But why not end the demonic sect, now that it no longer has any hope of recovering?”
Chen Ming got the gist of their intentions. They were from the righteous faction and wanted the whole continent as their backyard.
But how could Chen Ming agree?
His power came from his disciples. He wanted to occupy the continent so that he would have the land to grow his disciples, while also protecting them. He would, at the same time, turn this continent into a forward base camp to march on the Galaxy.
I am now the first on the continent, while the Limitless Dao Body has yet to reach the fledgling stage. I can surmise that the greatest trouble on the continent, at this moment, is regarding Ghost Immortal, who is watching from the sidelines. I need to enter the Galaxy.
I have no chance of becoming immortal in less than a dozen years. The best chance is for my four disciples to break through into the Immortal realm and turn this continent into an Immortal Domain.
He might not know the truth behind why an immortal would feel such a strong attachment to an Immortal Domain, but looking at Ghost Immortal one would see the importance of it since he schemed for this continent for a long long time.
Chen Ming said, “Cast your sights further. Before we open the path to immortality, our continent must have an immortal. If there’s an immortal than there won’t be a lack of Beneath Immortals either. Yet the strongest this land has is me, who just became a Beneath Immortal. Since the demonic sect exists, then it must be so for a reason. The things they need have no use to you, the righteous faction. We can’t just waste them. I will severe my third disciple’s demonic intent and place him as the leader of the demonic sect.”
Chen Ming’s plan was plain to see. He wanted to swallow the demonic sect’s territory. Chen Ming didn’t think he was going overboard. He earned the greatest merit in this war, not to mention his current status.
He stood above all!
No one was his match, he was just as Wu Jiang was when he could wander the land by himself. It was now an age brought about with the help of the four Sages. It was Chen Ming’s age!
He could just kill from a simple unappealing whisper or just one wrong look. And there was nothing they could do to stop him.
Rather than throwing the demonic sect to the righteous faction to fight over it like wolves, thus more turmoil, it would be better to take it on himself. He would use it to raise disciples, for the chance of opening the gates to the path to immortality, to further increase his strength.
The nine Autarchs crossed eyes, hearts unappeased, but resigned. As for starting a war with Yan Mountain, didn’t they all saw what that Allheaven Stellar Array do?
What Yan Mountain army, when they couldn’t even handle him all by his lonesome!
The most basic principle of the cultivating world was absolute power. It was the reason why every single one of them coveted for higher and stronger power.
But Chen Ming was clear on one thing, One needs to show proper manners when eating. He did some mental math regarding Yan Mountain’s pill output and said, “I can give each of your sects, per year, a million pills for ten years. When the time expires, you will have to buy them. And the price will forever stay the same.”
To their ears, this bread had a threat mixt inside. If they agreed, they would take the pills. If not, then sorry, the continent was out of pills for you.
As for stealing them, he-he-he, Immortal Master Chen always welcome you all to try.
The Autarchs weighted it for a bit. The number of pills was for war times, while in time of peace, one would use even less than a tenth. With ten years of free supplies, their sect would prosper and thrive.
They nodded in the end, “Alliance Leader’s term couldn’t be better.”
Zi Tianzang said, “Our continent never had a name. What does everyone think about naming it the Scarlet Tide Continent?”
They Autarchs glanced his way, Since when did a punk like you love to suck up?
Why didn’t I think of this earlier?
They were regretful. The times changed, no longer was there a thousands of years old righteous-demonic conflict, but all unified under Yan Mountain.
Bai Wuxia said, “I think it’s a great name.”
They agreed and prepared to announce it.
Chen Ming laughed, “I find it alright. Zi Tianzang, you’ve got quite the talent. Maybe one day you’ll become a Beneath Immortal.”
For the thoughtful, he would give a small benefit.
Zi Tianzang felt exulted, “Many thanks, Alliance Leader!”
They then went to divide the spoils. Chen Ming got the land, but there was still the matter of riches.
As Chen Ming glanced around he noticed Wu Jiang’s body missing, “Where could it have gone to?”
Zhong Tongzi said, “We’ve been so caught up into negotiating that a Demonic Sovereign must have taken it.”
