"No……"
"Who are you, and why are you capturing my people?"
"Why? What have we done that we are being arrested?"
...
At this moment, all races and forces in the entire desolate region, regardless of their cultivation level—whether they were Martial Gods or God Kings—were captured by the disciples of the Tianyu Sect and taken into their small worlds or their own worlds, and brought to Tianzhou.
Pfft—
Those who resisted fiercely were ruthless, and the disciples of Tianyu Sect killed them without saying a word.
Even a god-king level expert could kill him with a wave of his hand in front of countless clansmen, annihilating his soul and spirit.
Such ruthless methods silenced all other living beings.
Especially when they learned that among the many creatures that captured them were powerful God-Emperors, these creatures in the desolate region immediately lost all will to resist.
Resisting means certain death; not resisting might offer a glimmer of hope.
That's how it is.
In just two days, countless races and forces in the desolate region were captured and brought to Tianzhou in complete bewilderment, with no idea what had happened.
Kneel down!
When they were thrown into Tianzhou, the disciples of Tianyu Sect showed no mercy and made them kneel before Elder Fu.
Regardless of cultivation level or race.
"Who are you? Why..."
Some strong individuals felt aggrieved, couldn't bear the humiliation, refused to kneel, and wanted to negotiate, but...
Buzz!
Suddenly, a banner of ten thousand souls appeared. It was pitch black and stood ten thousand feet tall. An extremely dense and sinister aura emanated from the banner. Just a slight sense of it made countless living beings feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and their whole bodies were chilled.
The appearance of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was incredibly powerful.
The once clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, a dark and gloomy expanse.
It felt as if the sky was about to collapse, giving people an extremely oppressive feeling.
Roar!!!
At the same time, roars could be heard coming from within the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
These voices were filled with pain, resentment, and overwhelming hatred.
Just hearing these sounds, countless beings in Tianzhou felt their souls tremble, a chill ran through their hearts, and their souls nearly collapsed.
They could vaguely see countless black shadows moving on the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, as if they were divine souls, and like them, they had all kinds of forms and races.
Whew~~~
Suddenly, a terrifying devouring power emanated from the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, spreading towards the God-King who had shouted.
"No……"
The god-king was terrified, retreating in fear as he tried to resist the devouring force with his own rules, but all his efforts were in vain.
With a whoosh.
Its soul left its body and was instantly swallowed up by the Myriad Souls Banner.
Another vengeful spirit was added to the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, but it did not enhance the banner's power in any way.
Glug!
In that instant, countless sounds of swallowing saliva rang out throughout Tianzhou, and countless living beings looked at the Myriad Soul Banner standing in mid-air with horrified expressions, their hearts filled with unbearable fear.
I dared not utter another word.
Mo Hao flew into the air and came to Elder Fu, reporting, "Elder, all the races in the Desolate Region have been captured."
In just two days, with the help of more than 300 disciples of the Tianyu Sect, he captured almost all the creatures from hundreds of states in the desolate region.
Furthermore, they are distinguished by race.
It has to be said, this efficiency is extremely fast.
"good!"
Elder Fu nodded slightly, then cast his cold gaze at the dark mass of creatures in the desolate region, and said indifferently, "The desolate region is a domain prison, the domain prison of my Tianyu Sect."
"The beings in this prison are all descendants of those who have committed heinous sins. You should pay for the sins committed by your ancestors. My Tianyu Sect has allowed you to live because of our kindness and has not thrown you into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner."
"Otherwise, with the capabilities of my Tianyu Sect, annihilating you would be an easy task."
"But that doesn't mean my Tianyu Sect is easy to bully!"
Whoosh—
Elder Fu's words stirred up all the creatures in the entire desolate region.
Before this, they had no idea of the true situation in the Desolate Region. They only knew that they could only cultivate to the half-step God Emperor level in the Desolate Region and could not advance to the God Emperor realm at all.
at the same time.
They also knew that the desolate region had a boundary wall, like a cage, trapping all living beings in the desolate region.
Only then did they realize that there was such a reason behind it.
As for whether to believe or not...
Given the terrifying strength displayed by the Tianyu Sect, it seemed unnecessary to go to such lengths to deceive them. However, they didn't quite understand why this powerful figure from the Tianyu Sect had summoned them at this time and revealed the truth to them.
But it seems this is probably not a good thing.
"..."
The restless creatures of the desolate region could only suppress their fear and silently watch Elder Fu.
Elder Fu's murderous eyes swept coldly over the creatures of the desolate region, and he said in a cold voice: "Now, the Immortal Sect, led by Lu Tao, has not only slaughtered the creatures of the desolate region, causing the tragic deaths of countless powerful figures, but also led to the extinction of hundreds of races in the desolate region."
"He also cruelly destroyed the Tianyu Pavilion under my Tianyu Sect, and even more so, he murdered my Tianyu Sect's Divine Emperor with despicable means. This person's crimes are heinous and he deserves to die!"
“Originally, my Tianyu Sect was too lazy to care about you. Although we have been monitoring the Desolate Region, we have not interfered with your cultivation. We can let you live until your lifespan is exhausted. But now, Lu Tao’s ruthlessness has made me change my mind.”
“A vicious thug like Lu Tao is not only not grateful for the fact that he is still alive, but instead tries to kill my Tianyu Sect disciples. If he can do this, you must have the same thoughts.”
"In that case, rather than keeping you around to commit crimes in the future, I'd rather slaughter you all and use the proceeds to nourish my Ten Thousand Souls Banner!"
In the end, Elder Fu was filled with murderous intent, and the terrifying Ten Thousand Souls Banner rattled loudly, like a colossal beast about to devour all living beings.
Such a terrifying scene terrified the already restless creatures of the desolate region, causing them to scream in terror.
"No, spare me!"
"Your Excellency, spare our lives! We are not like Lu Tao. We have no idea what Tianyu Sect is, and we have no intention of dealing with it."
"Spare us! We are just ordinary cultivators with low strength. We would never do anything wrong..."
...
At this moment, many creatures in the desolate region were terrified and, without having time to think, began to beg for mercy.
Because they all knew that the sheer terror of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was enough to devour them completely, without any suspense whatsoever.
seem--
This powerful figure from the Tianyu Sect wasn't just making verbal threats; he was genuinely going to do it.
Even if some creatures sensed something was amiss, they dared not voice their suspicions and could only watch in trembling fear.
Even worse, some started cursing, but their target wasn't Tianyu Sect; it was Lu Tao.
"Your Excellency is right. Lu Tao truly deserves to die. Since his ascension, in just two short years, he has caused chaos throughout the entire Desolate Region, and countless powerful figures have died at his hands. This man is utterly wicked. We support Your Excellency in killing him."
"It's all Lu Tao's fault! He's a jinx, bringing death wherever he goes. I heard he wiped out countless demons in the lower realms, and he went even further in the desolate region, slaughtering hundreds of races. He deserves to go to hell!"
"Your Majesty, we are not on the same side as Lu Tao. We beg Your Majesty to spare our lives. We support Your Majesty in taking Lu Tao into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner and letting him suffer endless torment until he dies!"
"Your Excellency..."
...
At this moment, countless beings begged for mercy, while countless others cursed, saying that Lu Tao deserved to die and that the human race deserved to be exterminated.
Gradually, more and more beings began to curse Lu Tao, even drowning out the pleas for mercy. The sheer scale of the commotion made it seem as if a religious ritual of cursing was taking place.
At the same time, some beings were shocked by the news Elder Fu had revealed.
"I never imagined that Sect Master Lu would become so powerful in such a short time, capable of killing a God Emperor. I truly regret missing such a tremendous opportunity!"
"I deserve to die. I had such a great opportunity right in front of me, but I rejected it with my own hands. I am so stupid that I am beyond redemption."
"Damn, if I had joined the Immortal Sect, I would probably be incredibly powerful by now."
...
"Hiss... Lu Tao was actually able to kill a God Emperor? How is that possible?"
"My God, Lu Tao killed the Divine Emperor of the Tianyu Sect, and judging from the reaction of the Tianyu Sect's experts, they seem to be completely helpless against him. This... is simply unbelievable!"
"How did he do that? Wasn't he only at the Divine Lord level?"
...
At this moment, Yang Lin, Xue Qi, Xie Han, and other prodigies who had traded cultivation techniques with Lu Tao were all filled with regret, while the other God-King level experts from the desolate region were deeply shocked by the news that Lu Tao had killed a God-Emperor.
Recently, many top races and forces in the desolate region have suddenly disappeared without a trace.
They had speculated that Lu Tao was responsible, but they felt that was unlikely.
The result was—
Lu Tao not only annihilated the Alliance of All Races and Tianyu Pavilion, but even a God Emperor level expert fell at his hands, leaving them somewhat bewildered.
Now that Tianyu Sect has personally taken action against Lu Tao, they don't know if Lu Tao can survive.
at this time.
All they could do was silently pray for it in their hearts.
Regardless, these prodigies who benefited from Lu Tao naturally favored him; as for those God-King level experts, they did not believe Tianyu Sect's words.
What kind of ancestors were so sinful, what kind of people should forgive them, what kind of people deserve to die...
They don't believe any of it!
They only hoped that Lu Tao could be even more ruthless, preferably destroying this damned Tianyu Sect, so that the beings of the Desolate Region could escape this cage of the Desolate Region.
Of course, they could not say these words aloud; they could only keep them in their hearts.
"Spare me! Your Majesty, spare me!"
"Spare me..."
...
Throughout the entire Tianzhou, cries of pleas for mercy could be heard everywhere.
From afar, countless creatures appeared to be kneeling before Elder Fu, frantically kowtowing and begging for mercy, their expressions sorrowful yet sincere.
Even while begging for mercy, he didn't forget to curse Lu Tao a couple of times.
"snort!"
Elder Fu watched this scene, his thoughts unknown, but his face remained icy cold.
He snorted coldly, and after the scene gradually quieted down, he continued, "Since you don't want to die, then I will give you a chance."
"Now, we can contact the races and forces in the lower realms immediately, and send a message to Lu Tao, ordering him to hand over everything he possesses. Perhaps then I can spare his life, otherwise..."
Elder Fu's cold gaze swept over the beings of the desolate region, and seeing their fearful and uneasy expressions, he continued, "Otherwise, I will exterminate a clan every so often until the desolate region is completely wiped out."
Hiss—
Upon hearing Elder Fu's words, all the creatures in the desolate region couldn't help but feel terrified.
Even the geniuses like Yang Lin, Xie Han, and Xue Qi, who were still praying for Lu Tao in their hearts, suddenly felt panicked at this moment.
Nobody wants to die!
Not to mention, he died because he was implicated by others!
Forget about prayers; at this point, they were already itching to curse, not to mention other living beings.
If before they were only feigning anger and cursing Lu Tao because they were threatened by the Tianyu Sect, now they secretly wish Lu Tao were dead.
Do not implicate them.
"Immediately, we will contact the lower realm and deliver the message!"
"Quickly, contact the lower realm and make that Lu Tao come up here to be punished!"
"Damn it, that Lu Tao really deserves to die! Of all people to offend, why did he have to offend the Tianyu Sect!"
"I really want to kill him and destroy the Immortal Sect!"
...
In the chaos, various races and forces began to take out various altars, palaces, blood-written letters, and so on, and contacted their descendants in the lower realm.
At this moment, they didn't care about the consumption of energy. Even if it cost them a lot of life essence, they had to transmit the message to the lower realm and to Lu Tao's ears.
In an instant.
Countless cultivators were busy with their work.
But 99% of living beings and races have nothing to do.
It seems that their life and death are not entirely in their own control, but depend on the efforts of other races and forces.
This terrified them.
No one would find this feeling pleasant.
In order to survive, some creatures immediately continued to kowtow, asking in trembling voices, "Your Majesty, our clan has no descendants in the lower realm. Our clan also wishes to contribute to Your Majesty. Please give your orders."
"Your Majesty, our clan also wishes to contribute."
"Your Majesty, my clan..."
...
With one creature taking the lead, others followed suit, and soon, countless creatures began to kowtow, almost as if they were making a petition.
Elder Fu watched all this indifferently and said, "Since you cannot contact the lower realm, then try every means to make Lu Tao suffer. Curse him, kill him, disturb his mind, etc., you can do it all. If you do it well, I may spare your lives. But if any of you pretend to deceive me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
We will definitely do this well!
"Rest assured, Your Majesty, we will do it immediately!"
...
The creatures of the desolate region were alarmed and immediately sprang into action, each devising a way to deal with Lu Tao from a distance.
The best solution, in fact, is to curse.
Whether it's a verbal curse or a curse involving the sacrifice of other objects, while a single curse may not be very effective, the combined effect of billions of living beings is absolutely not to be underestimated.
Especially with so many living beings harboring resentment towards Lu Tao, it could lead to Lu Tao incurring the wrath of both heaven and man.
Seeing this, Elder Fu nodded in satisfaction and then gestured to a disciple of the Tianyu Sect.
The disciple immediately understood.
Buzz!
As soon as he made a thought, the rules of resentment spread, enveloping the entire Tianzhou, and arousing the resentment of the people in the desolate region towards Lu Tao to the extreme.
"Lu Tao, you deserve to die!"
"It's all Lu Tao's fault! He dragged us into this calamity. Even if he died ten thousand times, it wouldn't be a pity!"
"At the cost of my cultivation, I curse Lu Tao to a terrible death, and I curse the Immortal Sect to perish!"
"At the cost of my physical body..."
...
Countless curses surged forth at this moment, some cursing with words alone, others cursing by sacrificing other objects. The entire sky above Tianzhou was filled with an incredibly dense power of curses.
After these cursed powers emerged, they converged in one place and then disappeared into the void.
Mo Hao asked with some concern, "Elder, with such terrifying curse power, won't it kill Lu Tao?"
"Hmph, it would be better if he were cursed to death. Even if he dies, those opportunities won't disappear. They will eventually be obtained by our sect."
Elder Fu didn't care; he wished Lu Tao would die as soon as possible.
After Lu Tao's demise, those opportunities will likely fall into the hands of other members of the Immortal Sect, but those people may not be as extraordinary as Lu Tao.
That should be easier to deal with.
Mo Hao nodded silently, then asked, "Elder, if Lu Tao doesn't respond for a long time, how long should we wait before annihilating our clan?"
"Ten days!"
Elder Fu gazed at the heavens and said, "Lu Tao is hiding, and other beings in the lower realm may not be able to find him in a short time. However, in about ten days, Lu Tao will collect beings into his small world. At that time, he will surely receive the message we have passed down and see how he responds."
"Yes, Elder!"
Mo Hao nodded, ten days wasn't a long time.
Mo Hao was a little worried and said, "I just don't know if Lu Tao will be threatened. Given his previous attitude towards demons, he probably won't care about the life and death of these creatures in the wasteland. Even if they all die, it won't affect him at all."
He felt that Elder Fu's actions would probably be in vain.
"Whether it works or not, it's just an experiment. It won't cause any loss to my Tianyu Sect. The only ones who will die are these ants. It's perfect, my Ten Thousand Soul Banner hasn't been fed in a long time."
Elder Fu spoke these words with a very calm expression.
It was as if he wasn't talking about billions of living beings, but rather ordinary grass, trees, soil, and stones, appearing completely indifferent.
Mo Hao remained unmoved upon hearing this and echoed, "The elder is right."
"Um!"
Elder Fu didn't say anything more. He looked at Mo Hao and instructed, "Mo Hao, take the disciples and set up royal-level formations on all the ascension pools in the desolate region to prevent Lu Tao from escaping after returning to the desolate region, thus avoiding trouble."
"Yes, Elder!"
Mo Hao immediately led his disciples away.
Several hours later, Mo Hao returned alone, and then said to Elder Fu with a somewhat gloomy expression, "Elder, many God Emperors have come to my Tianyu Sect, wanting to demand an explanation from you."
"Ugh! Why are there so many annoying things happening lately?"
Elder Fu had a headache and couldn't help but rub his temples.
In the past, although he was the elder in charge, he was mostly in seclusion cultivating and rarely had to handle matters personally.
Now, things have gotten even worse. In just half a month, Lu Tao's incident and Yu Longtian's spies' sabotage have happened one after another, leaving him quite helpless.
Elder Fu sighed and instructed, "Keep an eye on this place. I'll be right back."
"Yes, Elder!"
