Chapter 77: Tianxia Sect's Newborn Sect
"The power of rules disappears? Can you tell me more about it?" Zhao Chaoan blinked and asked.
The King of Hell looked at her, then at the others, all waiting for her answer, a little surprised. She felt she had made herself clear: "Which one are you referring to?"
"What is the power of the rules, and how was it taken away? Why didn't we notice?"
The King of Hell rubbed his chin, a bit confused. "Don't you know? The Power of Rules is the power the Creator used to maintain order in heaven and earth at the beginning of the world. Originally, it wasn't controlled by either party. But because of the opening of the Ghost Gate, both worlds fell into chaos. At this time, the Power of Rules appeared to regulate the chaos, and the Spirit of Heaven seized this opportunity."
After saying this, the King of Hell saw that everyone was lost in thought. He rubbed his brows and asked in disbelief, "You don't know this, do you? It shouldn't be like this. Didn't your first generation leave behind any relevant information? This is one of the most basic pieces of information about the composition of the world."
Jiang Liuyan looked at Chen Cangwu, and Chen Cangwu also shook his head. After the death of the first generation, too much information was lost on their side.
And Zhao Chaoan didn't know even more. She had basically been running around like a headless fly to resist Tian, fighting alone without any clues.
The King of Hell sighed deeply. If that was the case, the situation in the mortal world didn't seem very good.
Seeing the King of Hell's helpless look, Shen Cangwu pondered for a moment and took the initiative to ask, "Does the sudden action of the Heavenly Spirit have any impact on Him?"
"Yes, at least her identity as the 'Heavenly Dao' of the Lower Realm is no longer recognized by Heaven and Earth. She will either completely absorb the power of the Lower Realm—the mortal realm—and become a god, or be ostracized and expelled by Heaven and Earth," said the King of Hell, adding, "If no measures are taken, the former is highly likely to succeed. But that little fellow seems to have already devised a countermeasure."
Shen Cangwu frowned slightly, and thought of a possibility: "Is it because our actions have caused damage to the Spirit of Heaven that He resorted to this method?"
If she was the spirit of heaven, in the absence of any threat, she would definitely continue to choose to carry out "Heaven's Wrath", slowly absorbing power and gradually disintegrating the world.
Moreover, according to calculations, if the wrath of heaven were to occur one or two more times, the spirit of heaven would have enough power to destroy the mortal world.
Doing so at this time is undoubtedly very rash.
Yama nodded. "Yes, because Skywrath's progress has been halted, the altar has been destroyed, and it won't be restored for a while. His clones are constantly being strangled, causing His power to be repeatedly weakened. He has no other options. But this doesn't mean you can relax. The final battle has just begun."
After saying this, Yan Wang looked up at the sky. At this moment, the sky had begun to clear up. She didn't have much time left to stay here. "Be careful. This is the last chance for both of you."
After saying this, the King of Hell disappeared, leaving the three of them standing there in a daze.
Jiang Liuyan exhaled. Now was the most critical moment. Just as she was about to organize people, she felt as if there was something in her hand.
Open your hand and there is a talisman paper lying in the palm of your hand.
She didn't know much about talisman paper, she only knew the general idea and could only tell that it was a summoning talisman.
Zhao Chaoan leaned over and recognized what it was. "It's the summoning talisman of the King of Hell. It can summon the King of Hell to come here to support us. Wow, this is the first time I've seen her take out this talisman. I've only heard of it before."
The most powerful aspect of this talisman is probably that it allows the King of Hell to attack without any restraint. You should know that the King of Hell is equivalent to the "Heaven's Way" in the ghost world.
Maybe this is compensation?
After listening to Zhao Chaoan's description, Jiang Liuyan understood the function and usage of the object in his hand. He put it away properly and turned to look at the large group that had already cleaned up the scene: "We are ready... Are you from Liuyun Sect?"
As soon as the three words "Liuyun Sect" came out, everyone became alert and picked up their weapons and aimed them at the monks who had just arrived.
Cheng Banxia, the leader, subconsciously raised her hands in surrender. "Well, well, we mean no harm, and we're not in cahoots with Qin Li... Hey, Senior Sister? When did you start liking to wear such brightly colored clothes?"
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Banxia looked at the familiar person in front of her with her arms folded across her chest and raised an eyebrow. There was no coldness or familiarity in her look. Then she realized, "Isn't it Senior Sister?"
Zhao Chaoan finally found out who this person was from his distant memory: "Oh, I remember now. You are the former sect master's last disciple, named..."
Oh Mo, she left the sect too early in her previous life, and she could no longer remember the names of most people in the sect. The only ones she remembered were those with whom she had a great grudge.
Cheng Banxia was surprised for a moment before reacting. He bowed and said, "I am Cheng Banxia. The people behind me are all cultivators who do not want to follow Qin Li in his evil deeds. They were previously unaware of what Qin Li and Luo Wangqing had done, and they all hope to join the team that resists Qin Li and do their part."
"Liuyun Sect is now..." Chen Cangwu stepped forward and negotiated with Cheng Banxia. She knew that the other two did not want to talk to the people of Liuyun Sect.
Cheng Banxia recognized Shen Cangwu and explained to him what had happened as accurately as possible. In fact, she had also heard from others that when she arrived at Liuyun Sect, it was almost in ruins.
But as for the others, because of what they did to Wind Chasing City and the two sects before, they are too embarrassed to talk to them now.
She couldn't push it out.
Now she is responsible for explaining the current situation and communicating, but she will not get involved in the apology later. Whoever did something should apologize for it, otherwise she will leave.
Cheng Banxia and Shen Cangwu reached a consensus on this point. The situation is tense now. Although they need to unite and fight as much as possible, any one person with ulterior motives can be fatal.
"... Let's do this. You follow us first, and then you go find another fellow Daoist Zhao." Shen Cangwu finalized the plan and turned around to find that Zhao Chaoan had come over at some point.
Cheng Banxia had no objection. They were probably at their limit to accepting him following behind. Seeing the man who looked like Zhao Qingxun approaching, she asked, "Um, may I ask who you are?"
"Ah, me," Zhao Chaoan spread her hands. She had already revealed her ghost form, so there was no need to hide. "My original name was Zhao Qingxun, but Ah Ran gave me a new name, Zhao Chaoan. I come from another parallel world that has been destroyed. Here, I am the fifth ghost king of the ghost world."
After saying that, she flicked her sleeves and left. Since things had settled down here and she had nothing to do, she just followed Jiang Liuyan to help, completely ignoring how much shock her words had caused to the others.
The group returned to Zhuifeng City in such a mighty manner. On the way, Shen Cangwu took the people from Tianyan Sect back to reorganize and then continued to clear out the clones.
When they arrived outside Zhuifeng City, they happened to run into another huge team.
Cheng Banxia was stunned when she saw Zhao Qingxun. When she saw Zhao Qingxun waving at her, she confirmed that this was her senior sister. She almost rushed over, but when she was about to hug Zhao Qingxun, she reached out her hand to stop her.
Behind them was Mu, who was leading the people in the restricted area, and Lin Xianzhu, who was holding Ying Bu Ran, who was still unconscious.
Jiang Liuyan was also stunned when she saw Lin Xianzhu, and then her eyes became moist and she almost cried, but because there were too many juniors present, she didn't want to lose this person, so she held back her tears.
Mu stepped forward, patted Jiang Liuyan's shoulder, pointed to Zhuifeng City, and signaled her to go back to the city with Lin Xianzhu and Ying Bu Ran first, while he would lead the people in the restricted area to find Yun Xiangwan.
As for this group of people from Liuyun Sect... leave them to Zhao Qingxun.
Zhao Qingxun was also stunned when he saw such a large group of people. After learning the situation from Cheng Banxia, he fell into deep thought.
"Let's establish a new sect," Zhao Qingxun said, "but before that, we need to apologize. A new beginning doesn't mean the past will be wiped clean. We must repent and make amends for our past actions before we can truly embark on a new journey."
Zhao Qingxun asked everyone to think about what they had done in the past. After making sure that Zhuifeng City was fine now, he took them to apologize solemnly and give compensation to the best of his ability.
After a moment's deliberation, Jiang Liuyan selectively accepted a portion of the compensation, requiring them to make up for the rest through their actions—fighting under the orders of Zhuifeng City without objection. Zhao Qingxun had no objection to this either, and she dismissed anyone who objected.
Half of these people had participated in missions targeting Wind Chasing City or the Destiny Body. The fact that Jiang Liuyan could still discuss matters with them calmly was already a huge setback.
Those who were dismissed had all participated without exception and felt that they were unaware and did not need compensation. As for those who did not participate, Zhao Qingxun did not ask them to come and apologize, after all, they did not do this thing.
As for those who held opposing opinions, Zhao Qingxun did not hesitate and calmly asked them to leave and find a place to go by themselves.
Whether aware of it or not, the damage and consequences have already been done. And who dares to say they haven't benefited from it? Everyone who participated in the action received a reward.
"Have you thought of a name and location? There is no vacant land in Zhuifeng City now. You need to find a place to settle down. I will arrange someone to accompany you to ensure your safety." Jiang Liuyan said.
There were more people in the restricted area than she had imagined, and because the Ghost Gate was also opened there, the order in that area was now particularly chaotic and it was no longer suitable to stay there. She had no choice but to let all the people in the restricted area live in the city and be managed under a unified management.
Zhao Qingxun had already made up his mind: "Well, let's call it Tianxia Sect. As for the location... I plan to rebuild it at the old site of Liuyun Sect. I don't have time to look for a new place now."
This time, she will try her best to lead the new sect to implement the original concept and not go astray.
