258 I’m Here to Attack
The declaration of war from the Tianling Sect undoubtedly stunned the cultivators of the Nine Desolations. After all, they were considering whether they should obey immediately or wait and observe the situation… In the end, the Tianling Sect offered the third option?!
What was even more shocking to the cultivators of the Nine Desolations was that Grandmaster Fang of the Tianling Sect, the former number one Holy Alchemist of the Nine Desolations, a well-known honest person, had gone to the desolate forbidden land alone and attacked first.
It was one of the three desolate forbidden lands of the Nine Desolations because not only was it the most dangerous place, but it also gave birth to an Incarnation stage being.
The creature was no different from a human, except that when it opened its mouth, it would reveal a mouthful of fangs.
According to him, it was a piece of human skin that had been cultivated.
Meanwhile, there were cultivators from the Nine Desolations kneeling on the ground where the Incarnation stage human skin was located. There was no lack of Nascent Soul and Core Formation stage cultivators from various great immortal sects.
“If you obey me, I can save you and your clansmen from becoming blood food. However, this is on the premise that the annual tribute is sufficient. Do you understand what I mean? Oh, right, don’t worry. The world outside the desolate forbidden land still belongs to you.”
The Incarnation stage human skin said.
“Thank you, my lord!”
When the cultivators of the Nine Desolations heard it, they were overjoyed. As long as they were fine and their clansmen were fine, it didn’t matter how many others died!
Moreover, their status as a noble family in their sect hadn’t changed because of this. They could still enjoy the generous resources they had enjoyed in the past!
Therefore, they all praised him, saying, “My Lord is wise!”
“My Lord is benevolent to the world!”
“How dare the Tianling Sect’s Fang Jinyu dare declare war on our Lord. He doesn’t know what’s good for him! My Lord, why don’t we beat up the Tianling Sect’s disciples and capture Fang Jinyu to avenge you?”
Upon hearing it, the other cultivators couldn’t help but look at the person who made the suggestion.
Afterward, they were furious because they had missed such a good opportunity to flatter their lord.
Therefore, they quickly agreed, “Yes! My Lord, we are willing to serve you! As the saying goes, the subordinates should fight when their lord is being humiliated. How dare Fang Jinyu dare to do this? We wish we could skin him alive and drink his blood.”
The Incarnation stage human skin said coldly, “There’s no need. You guys go prepare this year’s tribute! I will personally go to the Tianling Sect and see how capable they are of declaring war on me!”
The first one to appear naturally required the few of them at the Incarnation stage to take action. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have the effect of killing the strongest to warn the weak ones.
When these cultivators saw the powerful strength of the Incarnation stage cultivators, they would naturally become obedient.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was drowned by the rolling thunder.
It was the most top-notch lightning technique. Its power was also incomparably strong because it was enhanced by “heaven’s intention is equivalent to my technique.” It even surpassed the full-strength attack of an ordinary early-stage Incarnation cultivator.
Therefore, when the lightning stopped, the place was dead silent.
The cultivators who had been kneeling on the ground and clamoring about killing Fang Jinyu to avenge their lord were now scorched black.
The desolate forbidden land, which had existed for thousands of years, had been flattened.
“Crack!”
However, at this moment, a crisp sound was heard. A piece of charred human skin crawled out from the ground and transformed into the appearance of the previous Incarnation stage human skin.
“Who are you?”
The Incarnation stage human skin currently looked at the Nascent Soul stage cultivator standing in the void with a gloomy expression.
Although the other party was a mere Nascent Soul stage cultivator, the feeling he gave off was extremely dangerous.
“Junior Fang Jinyu greets Senior.”
Fang Jinyu said it politely, but he said it condescendingly.
“You’re that person from the Tianling Sect? No wonder you dared declare war! You do have the ability to do so, and I acknowledge that. From today onwards, your Tianling Sect’s disciples and their clansmen won’t be reduced to blood food.” The Incarnation stage human skin looked at Fang Jinyu. At the same time, his heart skipped a beat, and he took a step back.
As an old ghost who had cultivated a piece of human skin and successfully shed his skin after devouring a large amount of living people’s essence, his reputation was completely dispensable.
Moreover, he was only admitting failure temporarily.
When Fang Jinyu retreated, he would drag the other two Incarnation stage lord cultivators with him and kill Fang Jinyu together!
At that time, everyone from the Tianling Sect would die!
“But I don’t recognize you! Moreover, Senior, I came all the way here to find you, so I hope you can enlighten me!”
Fang Jinyu waved his hand, and the Incarnation stage human skin disappeared without a trace.
However, a moment later, a cloud of blood mist exploded out of thin air. The Incarnation stage human skin died to Fang Jinyu’s divine power of the “passing days and months with a wave.” However, Fang Jinyu knew that the other party hadn’t completely died.
Fang Jinyu could sense that in a place far away, the Incarnation stage human skin had already revived.
Therefore, Fang Jinyu lifted his foot and stepped forward, and his figure instantly turned illusory.
…
It was an immortal city named Luojia.
There was no one with a high cultivation base in the immortal city. Although there was a Golden Core Formation stage cultivator earlier, he was chased away by a few late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Originally, the Luojia Immortal City was famous for being deserted. Even if there were Qi Condensation stage cultivators, the total number of cultivators in the entire city was less than 1,000.
However, ever since they had sought refuge with the Incarnation stage cultivator of the Desolate Forbidden Land, the Luojia Immortal City had become lively. People from various large forces had all settled here because the Nascent Soul stage and Core Formation stage cultivators from their immortal sects and families had gone to meet the Incarnation stage cultivator of the desolate forbidden land.
At this moment, the human skin on a few cultivators suddenly fell off. As blood gushed out, the human skin gathered together and transformed into a human figure.
At first, the humanoid figure only emitted the Qi Condensation stage cultivation aura. However, in just a few breaths, the cultivation aura became that of the Incarnation stage! It was as heavy as a stone, and the cultivators in the city couldn’t breathe.
It was naturally the Incarnation stage human skin!
There was a price to pay for obeying him.
At this moment, the Incarnation stage human skin’s face was filled with bewilderment. It was because he never expected that he would be killed by a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Moreover, he was killed so easily!
“What a terrifying great divine power. The fog is thick, and Yin and Yang are reversed. Even my fate is affected. No matter how I transform, I can’t escape.”
“Senior, thank you for your praise!” A man’s voice, which was neither pleasant nor unpleasant to hear, sounded. Afterward, Fang Jinyu’s figure solidified and appeared in front of the Incarnation stage human skin
The Incarnation stage human skin didn’t say anything and directly attacked Fang Jinyu.
The cold wind that could reduce one’s lifespan blew out.
The cold wind seemed inconspicuous, but in reality, mortals would immediately turn into corpses when they encountered it. If a cultivator encountered it, their entire lifespan would be taken away in the blink of an eye. Even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator wouldn’t be able to withstand it!
It was because it could devour a thousand years of lifespan in an instant.
