Waste Paper Bridge
Chapter 168 Taming Wolves into Dogs
"Xuanhai City, I haven't heard of any Bai family there!" Ye Chuxiao said indifferently.
Ye Chuxiao had also been prominent in the island world before. Although his strength was a bit low, the level he was exposed to was not low.
If it were a well-known wealthy family, he would have an impression.
"The Bai family appeared about five years ago. Although many people have proven that they are indeed locals, it's hard not to suspect that a family that appeared out of nowhere like that is from somewhere else."
"But if they really are outsiders, what kind of power would allow an entire family to airdrop into another world?" Wei Zhou murmured.
Ye Chuxiao was not puzzled by this.
If it had been before, he would have had the same questions as Wei Zhou.
But through the Dao rhythm, he had relevant memories from the captured immortal treasure realm artisans.
As everyone knows, the Fortune Boat can be used to cross realms. As long as you pay the fare and the price, you can come and go freely to any world.
However, the Fortune Boat is not the only way to travel between many worlds.
If there is a cross-realm teleportation array between worlds that are not far apart, then it is also possible to perform fixed-point cross-realm travel after consuming a huge amount of energy.
In addition, some powerful cross-realm artifacts, divine talismans, special divine powers, etc., also have the ability to cross realms.
However, these cross-realm abilities have great limitations compared to crossing realms through the Fortune Boat.
Either the world to go to is fixed, or the distance cannot be traversed too far, or the safety performance is not guaranteed. Crossing the world is very likely to encounter accidents in the middle.
In short, the Fortune Boat is still the only safe and convenient way to cross realms that Ye Chuxiao knows of so far.
Perhaps there are other existences similar to the Fortune Boat, but their popularity is certainly not as good as the Fortune Boat.
If an entire family crossed realms, it is very likely that they did so through a fixed-point cross-realm teleportation array.
"Outsiders secretly peep and control the shared spiritual roots, but haven't been jointly targeted and expelled by the cultivators of your own world?"
"Could it be that they are all bullies?" Ye Chuxiao said.
Wei Zhou's cheeks were flushed: "Nonsense... Although I don't know the specific reason, at least my Wei family has fought bloody battles, but... but we just lost."
"If it weren't for protecting Yangyang and the others, I wouldn't be feigning civility with Wei Ya and the others."
Ye Chuxiao waved his hand: "I don't want to know your mental journey. Since the Bai family took my things, I'll go find the Bai family."
After saying that, he grabbed Wei Zhou's arm.
The two leaped up and climbed to the clouds.
Soaring along the ocean current, Xuanhai City, which was thousands of miles away from Dinghai City, appeared before the two in an instant.
Of course, Ye Chuxiao's flying speed was not that fast, but he used the power of the artifact.
The Yuanyang Treasure Shoes under his feet have the characteristic of supernatural speed. After opening, it overlaps with the domain, and within the domain's coverage, Ye Chuxiao can reach it with a single thought.
Just by repeating the domain twice, Ye Chuxiao can turn thousands of miles into an instant.
If Jin Buyi had such a move back then, why would he have brought a group of people to Yunmeng Lake and still had to take a boat for a day and a night?
"That high tower is the main building of the Bai family," Wei Zhou pointed the way.
Ye Chuxiao directly opened the domain.
Under the shroud of the domain, the heavy characteristics were activated layer by layer through the artifact.
Spirit ban, heavy pressure, suffocation, blockade, absolute void, extinguishing law.
These artifact characteristics, which once could not limit Ye Chuxiao, are now triggered by Ye Chuxiao at the same time and actively landed in the Bai family's residence, but they have produced miraculous effects.
The many cultivators of the Bai family, including the two Intent Realm cultivators who were still practicing in the quiet room, all fell into a kind of desperate silence.
Even the two Intent Realm cultivators tried their best to open up their domains, but without the support of artifacts, their domains seemed so fragile and thin under Ye Chuxiao's domain.
[The novel app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, and old bookworms are using the source replacement app, huanyuanapp.]
In the Immortal Treasure Realm, almost every Intent Realm divine craftsman has an artifact, as if giving people the illusion that every Intent Realm should have at least one artifact in hand.
But the fact at this moment is that for Intent Realm cultivators, artifacts are still rare and precious treasures.
Thinking back to those Intent Realm cultivators that Ye Chuxiao had come into contact with before entering the Immortal Treasure Realm.
There were only a few cultivators who independently owned artifacts.
An Intent Realm like Ye Chuxiao, who was covered in artifacts, was truly unique.
"Which expert is playing tricks on my Bai family?" The older Bai family Intent Realm clasped his fists and shouted into the air.
Although it was difficult to hide the humiliation in his eyes, he took the initiative to lower his posture at this moment.
"Playing tricks?"
"Don't think about taking advantage. Your Bai family took my things without asking. I'm just a victim coming to ask for them."
"If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, then your Bai family will be destroyed here!" Ye Chuxiao said indifferently.
Standing on Ye Chuxiao's left hand, Wei Zhou, who was standing on the spiritual cloud, finally came back to his senses.
She looked at Ye Chuxiao, but only felt that the distance between her and Ye Chuxiao had been invisibly widened.
"What has he experienced in just a few years to become so powerful?"
"How did he manage to complete the path that ordinary cultivators need at least decades or nearly a hundred years to complete in just a few years?" At this moment, the last trace of competitive spirit buried deep in Wei Zhou's heart quietly dissipated.
The gap was too big, and she couldn't even try to catch up.
"May I ask this... senior!"
"If my Bai family has any ignorant juniors who took the senior's things, my Bai family is willing to offer them with both hands, and compensate three times the price to show our sincerity," the Bai family Intent Realm said.
Since he had lowered his posture, he had to bend his waist even lower.
"Okay, then return the spiritual root information you took from the shared spiritual roots with a tenfold difference!" As soon as Ye Chuxiao opened his mouth, he changed the three times to ten times.
The Bai family Intent Realm's face fell when he heard this, and his originally bent waist straightened again.
"As far as I know, shared spiritual roots are not something that anyone has exclusively."
"It is also a convention in this world to take what you need from the spiritual roots according to the proportion."
"My Bai family only got what it deserved. If the senior makes things difficult because of this, it is inevitable that he will be suspected of bullying others, and if it spreads out... are you not afraid of provoking public anger?" The Bai family Intent Realm said eloquently.
Ye Chuxiao appeared from the clouds: "Take a look and see who I am?"
The Bai family Intent Realm was a little puzzled when he looked at Ye Chuxiao's current appearance.
Another slightly younger Intent Realm cultivator next to him explained Ye Chuxiao's identity to him in time.
"So... it's Fellow Daoist Wang!"
"Debts have debtors, and those who persecuted you in the first place were not my Bai family!" the Bai family Intent Realm quibbled.
Ye Chuxiao said coldly: "Nonsense! Still want to change the subject?"
"Forget it! I don't have the mind to continue to entangle with you. If you don't give me what I want, then I'll take it myself."
After saying that, he pressed down with his palm.
Among the Bai family, those cultivators who forcibly stripped the shared spiritual root information and took it for themselves were taken away from their spiritual roots by Ye Chuxiao from the air, and all of them became useless.
A large amount of spiritual root information gathered, turning into looming top-grade spiritual roots, shining with colorful light in Ye Chuxiao's palm.
"Not enough... even too far away."
"The shared spiritual roots in Dinghai and Xuanhai must have more accumulation than this."
"I heard that your Bai family is from outside. It seems that you have transferred what you got?" Ye Chuxiao said.
Wei Zhou said at this time: "It's not just Dinghai and Xuanhai. The three cities of Wuhai, Linghai, and Baohai are also under the Bai family's jurisdiction. The original stewards of these three cities have also been emptied by them and replaced with their dogs."
Ye Chuxiao clapped his hands and smiled: "Understood!"
"The Bai family still has support, maybe there are more than two Bai family Intent Realms, and there are still some powerful means."
"He's stalling for time with me!"
As soon as the words fell, Ye Chuxiao didn't even use a knife, but just waved his hand in the air.
When the knife fell, the domains of the two Bai family Intent Realms shattered in an instant.
Along with the collapse of the domain, their bodies were exposed to Ye Chuxiao's saber light.
The saber light wrapped in saber intent invaded the two people's spiritual platform and ravaged them fiercely. Although it did not kill them immediately, it also crippled most of them.
"How dare you!"
"My Bai family is the vanguard of the Great寰 expedition abroad. No matter who you are, such recklessness... is a dead end." The younger Intent Realm, whose hundreds of years of cultivation had been destroyed, directly collapsed his Dao heart and began to speak without restraint.
"Great寰 again?"
"This is really... a coincidence!" Ye Chuxiao thought.
Was it really a coincidence?
It wasn't a coincidence!
Although the heavens and myriad worlds are as vast as stars, there are actually only a few places that have the ability and strength to develop and expand their power.
Once you encounter a cross-realm force, it is either this or that, and there is nothing strange about it.
"Great寰! How terrible!"
"So... you're forcing me to kill you?" Ye Chuxiao said.
The Bai family Intent Realm, who had also had his cultivation ruined but still retained his sanity, said with a mouthful of blood while half-kneeling on the ground: "Your Excellency! This matter cannot be concealed!"
"Even if we are all killed by you and our souls are scattered, and this place is burned to the ground, the patrol messenger can use the Reversal Realm to look back at this scene if he wants to investigate."
Saying that, he gasped for a few breaths, and then continued: "Let us go, and this matter will only be regarded as my Bai family's poor performance. Although my Bai family will find you for revenge for generations, it is only a family feud, not a feud between you and Great寰. Your Excellency... please think twice."
"That makes a lot of sense!"
"So, I'll take your heads first!" Ye Chuxiao was about to strike a heavy blow.
In the void on one side, there was a dark light that suddenly attacked him.
The Yuanyang Treasure Armor automatically protected his body, and the dark light was blocked a few meters away.
A thin man, holding a Dividing Water Thorn, struck with a single blow, and even gathered the surrounding majestic and abundant seawater vapor.
This must be an artifact.
And it was an artifact that was very suitable for playing in the island world.
The Yuanyang Treasure Saber flew out automatically and held it in his hand. The saber and the Dividing Water Thorn only collided once.
The entire island shook violently.
Giant waves dozens of meters high flew high around the entire island.
"Let my Bai family go, otherwise I will drag the people of the entire Xuanhai City to be buried with me." The Intent Realm holding the Dividing Water Thorn quickly distanced himself from Ye Chuxiao after one blow, and continued to change his position to prevent being locked by Ye Chuxiao.
He obviously knew that Ye Chuxiao possessed many artifacts and knew that confronting Ye Chuxiao head-on was definitely not an opponent.
"Threatening me with the people of the whole city?" Ye Chuxiao questioned.
"That's right! You don't have to deny it. The person who can come up with a method like shared spiritual roots is definitely not a person without the masses in his heart."
"You won't disregard the life and death of so many people for a moment of pleasure," said the Bai family Intent Realm holding the Dividing Water Thorn.
Wei Zhou glanced at Ye Chuxiao secretly, as if worried that Ye Chuxiao would insist on going the other way under the other party's stimulation.
But obviously, Ye Chuxiao had not lost his mind.
He was deceived and targeted in the Immortal Treasure Realm, but he did not really start a killing spree, but only killed the chief culprit and the followers, and at most also cleaned up some nosy dregs.
How could he really be unscrupulous at this time and condone tragedy?
"I have a Water Fixing Divine Pearl, and it doesn't matter if you set off monstrous waves," Ye Chuxiao took out a treasure pearl.
This treasure pearl has the characteristic of fixing water.
Among artifacts, it tends to have special auxiliary effects, and its use value is not high most of the time.
Of course, as an artifact, its power is quite terrifying even if it is only used to smash people.
Ye Chuxiao took out the Water Fixing Divine Pearl, making the Bai family Intent Realm who was changing positions lose his tricks for a while.
"You want the Bai family to live, and I'm not some kind of living Yama."
"So... we have to think of a suitable way."
"I want to get back my losses, and you welcome back your people..." Ye Chuxiao continued.
"What do you want to do?" the Bai family's Intent Realm cultivator who had rushed back asked from afar.
"The island world has forty-nine shared spiritual roots, which are quite valuable to me."
"You go and bring back all the spiritual root information from them, and I will let the Bai family go."
"This deal is fair and reasonable," Ye Chuxiao said.
Ye Chuxiao didn't want to really slaughter the Bai family.
And shared spiritual roots, in the island world, have actually gradually lost their original role and have gradually become a source of trouble.
Since that was the case, then Ye Chuxiao would drive the Bai family Intent Realm to collect the spiritual roots for him and get rid of these roots of disaster.
If the Bai family and the local cultivators in the island world had conflicts, it would also be dogs biting dogs.
It saved Ye Chuxiao a lot of trouble.
Of course, Ye Chuxiao didn't do everything to the extreme.
Besides the forty-nine main shared spiritual roots, there were even more shared spiritual roots that he had not secretly left marks on.
It was just that they were scattered in remote, desolate places with no development value.
For large forces, those shared spiritual roots in remote areas were tasteless to eat, but a pity to discard.
But for those loose cultivators and ordinary cultivators with no family background, this was hope.
Ye Chuxiao drove the Bai family to get rid of the roots of disaster for him, but he still left hope in places where people rarely set foot.
"Cakes that are too sweet will not end up in the mouths of those who really need them, but will be divided by the meat eaters, and the few leftovers will also be mixed with poison and hooks."
"Only black bread mixed with sand, roughly made, and roughly ground, will be left behind because it is not liked, and will be used by the people at the bottom to satisfy their hunger."
"This is a class problem that exists in any world. I can't solve this problem, so I can only choose this method."
