In a world of pure martial arts, Yun Shou initially believed he could only live an ordinary life with the weak cheat he possessed.
That was until the age of fourteen, when he obtained a secon...
[You didn't reveal that the mastermind behind it all was "Kui," but instead claimed to possess miraculous abilities, before enveloping the seven thousand cosmic rulers present with your spiritual power.]
[More than seven thousand rulers of the universe, representing four factions with over a hundred million Dao principles each, stood silently, completely enveloped by the spiritual power you unleashed.]
[This includes "Kui," a senior True Immortal with trillions of years of experience, whose lifespan is equivalent to a hundred cycles of birth and death in the ordinary universe. Although he cannot compare to the leaders of those factions, he still possesses 370 million Dao principles.]
Honestly, his strength was by no means weak. Even if the guards were prepared and joined forces, more than 30,000 of them would still be killed in a short period of time. Only a few would be able to escape thanks to their special Dao principles.
[One more limiting condition needs to be added: his actual strength.]
If we also consider the built-in access to the universe he can control, your guards, who have only been developing in this new universe for 100 years, are simply powerless to resist!
At this moment, Kui, like thousands of other colleagues, frowned, seemingly puzzled by your actions.
There was no subtle flaw such as "a flash of cold light in his eyes" or "a hint of coldness in his gaze."
The real culprit was quite indifferent. Although he didn't know the extent of the outsourcing, everyone present was one of his own. Even if they were divided into different factions, he couldn't just let these outsiders interrogate him.
[Moreover, his strength is at least at the True Immortal level of the Resonance realm. Having reached this level, he has absorbed various related Dao principles to varying degrees, coupled with his formidable Dao power… even if you have mind-reading abilities, they will be difficult to apply to him.]
And you simply smiled calmly.
[Essential Rewards and Punishments, Activated!]
[An optional target has appeared.]
[Quickly distinguish friend from foe, eliminate the adopted sons and henchmen behind the scenes, and then fundamentally reduce the remaining 7215 targets!]
[They stripped away the essence of each of them to almost nothing, leaving even the strongest among them with only the strength of ten thousand jin.]
[The punishment from Father Yun was only temporary.]
A moment later, they both fell from the clouds.
At this moment, you all stand in the void of the universe.
[This place is almost a complete vacuum; it would take more than a minute for the negative pressure, oxygen, and temperature to physiologically kill an adult male.]
[A healthy adult male with a strength of approximately 100 kilograms.]
[And these cosmic rulers before you... who were originally worth 2.5 billion, now possess the strength of ten thousand jin.]
However, those with a strength of 1 billion are left with less than 100 grams of physical strength.
Having just entered the ninety-ninth realm, and having only replicated one hundred million Dao principles, barely managing to reach the Resonance level as a True Immortal, one only has one percent of the power left.
In the blink of an eye, over four thousand of the seven thousand universe controllers were defeated by this vacuum environment!
[There are also special life forms of True Immortals who are immune to the destructive power of the vacuum environment, yet they are torn apart by the very clothes they wear!]
Although he was wearing normal clothing, the clothes, which were originally held in place by his own spiritual power, were now drifting freely in space, tearing his body, which was even more fragile than hydrogen gas, apart.
Although True Immortals are not so easy to kill, and even if they are reduced to particles, they can be reborn through various special Dao principles, they are currently far too fragile. Even a willow catkin drifting slowly through space could pierce through their bodies.
[In a short time, dozens of rulers of the universe perished. The Dao source within their bodies, which had been largely consumed in the previous work of modulating the universe, was now insufficient to replenish, making it impossible to repair their still-damaging bodies.]
With a deafening roar, the area spanning over a thousand light-years was filled with the sea of Dao principles emanating from its fall.
At this moment, none of the rulers of the universe had the inclination to replicate that Dao principle. If no one stepped in to help, more than a thousand of them would perish in no time!
[Because its essence has been reduced so much, although the range of the falling phenomenon has not decreased, its duration has been greatly reduced, and it will dissipate in just a few seconds.]
It's okay, one problem after another.
The strange phenomena of the previous event had not yet dissipated, and the next one was already upon us.
You waved your hand. Those cosmic rulers whose essence you haven't diminished haven't arrived yet; this is the perfect opportunity: "Save their lives first, then one by one, perform soul-searching and mind-reading."
The leaders of all four factions are present. They still possess immense strength, and if they react quickly, they can use their existing cosmic authority to hinder you.
[But their essence was reduced to an extreme level, their intelligence reached an all-time low, even inferior to that of a paramecium. They only knew how to stand there dumbfounded, and then your True Immortals captured them one by one to search their souls and read their spirits.]
After a relentless push, the truth quickly became clear.
It's a power struggle between their factions and factions.
[Faction A: "I want to transform the Nine-Nine Realms into this and that."]
[Faction B: "I disagree; we want to implement our plan."]
[C Faction: "Neutral Korea."]
[Faction D: "I'm neutral too." (Inwardly, they disagree with both A and B, and secretly want to kill A and B and win over C, but harbor malicious intentions and pretend to be a good person.)]
[A and B have differing ideologies; C is a group of idle individuals; and D is a cunning old fox plotting schemes behind the scenes.]
They fought each other for trillions of years, and then you arrived.
[You have revealed a mysterious identity that suggests you may be the son of the Celestial Lord.]
Both A and B have chosen not to provoke you, as long as you don't cause too much trouble, you can do whatever you want. C, on the other hand, seems to be trying to win you over, but hasn't done anything concrete yet.
[Then Faction D chooses to kill you. They activate a hidden agent: an envoy of "Kuei" in Faction B, who, while assassinating you, frames Faction A.]
[Then they will team up with B to kill A. Once your Celestial Lord arrives at the scene, he will discover through clues that B is the real mastermind and then eliminate B.]
In short, that's the content above.
Although it may seem like child's play, it actually involves a series of interconnected conspiracies. I'm too lazy to elaborate, but just know that it's a perfectly flawless, exceptionally sophisticated plan without any loopholes.
