Chapter 1201: Chapter 720_2
Green Ox…, “Master, could you not slander dogs? Actually, dogs are really loyal. I even feel a bit sorry for them; any bad language uses dogs for comparison. They’re so wronged, and unlike us oxen, our hides can fly in the sky.”
Eryao…, “Still, we dragons are better. The metaphors for dragons are generally good omens. Dragons represent the emperor’s honor, glory, and spirit!”
Ye Tian also found this topic of discussion very fitting. Those landlords and rich families are used to exploiting the poor, and when they realize there’s no longer a threat, they might continue to squeeze the poor to quickly earn back some money!
“By doing this, are we causing hardship for the poor in this small country?”
Jiang Tang understood what Ye Tian was worried about.
“If the poor don’t rise up, even if we give back the things we’ve collected, they won’t be able to protect them. As for us having this ability, why shouldn’t we collect it? Of course, that’s not okay.”
Eryao gave Ye Tian a sideways glance: “If you’re not doing anything, don’t complain. Get out of the way; there’s a reason for what we’re doing!”
Ye Tian rubbed his nose; Jiang Tang’s spiritual pet was as arrogant as he was. Oh my, this person was too formidable, sharp-tongued, and devious. He didn’t take action, only watched and enjoyed the show, occasionally benefiting. Oh well, forget it?
Jiang Tang and the team no longer dwelled on this issue because they knew they had done something wrong by looting other people’s belongings. This was clearly a bad deed!
Yet he felt the protagonist’s aura wrapped around him, even more radiant!
Not only him, but even his pets by his side were greatly affected!
The Light of Merit suddenly shone brightly on his head!
Jiang Tang was puzzled; clearly, he had done something wrong, killing people of this country and stealing, so why was there the Light of Merit above his head?
His pets, Green Ox and Eryao, were also confused; why would such a good thing happen?
If killing and robbery would bring the Light of Merit, then why do those with strong evil aura carry black energy that affects the people around them? If one doesn’t cultivate magic power, it would affect the destiny and health of those around them!
Ye Tian was simply envious and jealous. As fellow transmigrators, why did he lack the protagonist’s halo?
Why didn’t he have the Light of Merit blessing him?
The people and pets in front of him were all such monsters. No matter what they did, they all had the Light of Merit!
Is this the protagonist’s golden finger?
Ye Tian felt his luck was already not bad, but compared to Jiang Tang, it didn’t measure up!
With physical abilities and found items, or through cultivation techniques inexplicably created to enhance one’s ability!
Furthermore, this person could defy the heavens. The stronger the magic power holder attacked him, the more he benefited from it!
The last time, four Invincible Sect ancestors besieged Jiang Tang. He was worried, even though Jiang Tang had many pets and lots of spiritual energy support, but the opponents had similar capabilities!
Moreover, they were demons. Unexpectedly, they just gave Jiang Tang some pressure, and he directly absorbed more than half of their magic power.
He soared straight to the Divinity Transformation Stage, which made Ye Tian envious and hateful, secretly guessing that Jiang Tang had huge contradictions!
Obviously possessing Buddha Light cultivation techniques, capable of counterbalancing and restraining opponents, yet he absorbed their magic power to enhance his strength and cultivation!
Could it be that besides Five Elements Spiritual Roots, Jiang Tang had many unimaginable Dark Spiritual Roots!
Jiang Tang was both righteous and evil, seemed very grounded, yet sometimes did some inconsistent things, like theft.
By killing and robbing, one could still receive the Light of Merit. He felt Heavenly Dao was a bit biased; could this person with no lower limits still be rewarded?
Is he the favored child of the Heavenly Dao?
Ye Tian felt uneasy inside, and his expression showed it, with sounds of discontent proving his envy and jealousy!
“Jiang Tang, are you the son of Heavenly Dao? How is it that everything you do gets rewarded?”
Jiang Tang, having received the merit, was also happy in his heart. Whatever benefits came, it was still worth it!
Ye Tian’s sour tone only made him wink at him: “Yeah, Heavenly Dao favors me, thinking I’m still useful, so I’ve decided to keep striving hard!”
“Ma Coin, you’re too arrogant, you’ll have no friends in the future!”
Ye Tian was envious, jealous, and hateful, not wanting to see this person anymore, and decided to focus on strengthening himself. If Heavenly Dao doesn’t favor him, he will just rely on himself!
Jiang Tang then tapped the Flying Artifact a few times, and it followed the direction of that last escaping Invincible Sect ancestor!
The Invincible Sect ancestor, realizing that his companions had lost contact, had fled far over days, others fled towards the sea, but he moved towards the inland direction.
Others were escaping abroad, but he was wandering around the Xia Country with a plan!
This so-called inland is actually the Mortal Realm, and as a Great Power Holder entering here was somewhat against the rules, concealing his aura, but he still felt uneasy despite having moved so far away!
He felt paranoid; every rustle of leaves might be a pursuer!
However, he noticed that this inland was also a kingdom, but the people were poorer, without cultivators, only martial artists, and more scholarly cultivators!
Initially, he could receive some messages from his companions, but they soon lost contact!
He also got messages from the Invincible Sect Leader, who hid even deeper when learning the ancestors were defeated.
Revival was out of the question; avoiding pursuit was the priority!
After a few days, Jiang Tang’s group returned to Xia Country, passing through the Cultivation World and noticing changes, especially in Ten Directions City.
Initially empty streets and sky with no people traveling!
Now there were faint traces of people!
It’s said so many mortals died, but Ten Directions City still recruited some mortals for work!
The buildings and streets damaged by demons and demonic beasts, and even some mineral resources, were being restored to normal!
As for some islands, nothing seemed to have changed when they arrived at the Mortal Realm!
Here, martial and scholarly cultivators, although unable to fly like cultivators, could achieve Ascension upon reaching a certain level!
Only, just like the old Cultivation World, where people could develop abilities and increase lifespan, no one had ascended in many thousands of years!
Ascenders had become legends and myths!
People could only strive to extend life, dissatisfied, they explored, trying to find out why no one had ascended for over a millennium!
Jiang Tang’s Flying Artifact arrived in a realm of mortals without landing, only tracking aura!
The Invincible Sect ancestor was continuously pursued by Jiang Tang’s spiritual pets, no matter how deeply hidden, his movements were exposed!
Jiang Tang discovered that the Invincible Sect ancestor was digging the ancestral tombs of the Mortal Realm’s king!
This means that the place he was hiding was an ancient tomb, or an imperial mausoleum, a row of tombstones marking deceased emperors of all generations, including some Empress Dowagers or Empresses buried here!
Tombstones of some princes were also here, guarded by soldiers, this area was eerie and not far from the capital!
From historical books he read before, Jiang Tang knew the emperor’s tombs were located in Feng Shui locations, although he didn’t know what Feng Shui meant.
In folk terms, this was called the Dragon Vein, detecting with Divine Sense from high above, he found no spiritual energy anywhere in the Mortal Realm, only a trace emanated from this imperial tomb!
Is this the so-called Spirit Vein?
The place with a Spirit Vein was utilized by the emperor’s ancestors; is that why it’s called Dragon Vein?
However, the Invincible Sect ancestor was very sinister, hiding in such a creepy place, thinking it could conceal his aura!
Jiang Tang couldn’t help but commend him for being clever. Without his spiritual pet’s pursuit, they really might have been overlooked by the Invincible Sect ancestor!
