Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Scared to Death _1
I am authorized to decide that henceforth, your country need not share dividends with our sect."
"Sect Master!" Wang Lun voiced his objection.
Zhao Kong shook his head.
Chu Yuan\'s strength was more terrifying than he had initially anticipated, even a Divine Abilities Level 7 practitioner was no match for him.
Faced with such an adversary, he would rather forfeit his gains.
After all, no one wants to offend such a terrifying Imperial Dynasty.
"Moreover, to express my apologies, I will compensate with ten million mana crystals." Zhao Kong offered another generous gift.
"Originally, I didn\'t want to add more rivals, but Wanzuan and Cangnan both sent strong practitioners to surround the mine, disrespecting my Dawu in an intolerable manner. If not for my formidable 200,000 Divine Warrior army, corpses would be strewn there."
Chu Yuan, with a murderous intent, wasn\'t about to let the matter go so easily, "I will give you two choices, one is the path of life, and the other is the path of death. The path of life is to submit to me, for Wanzuan to submit to Dawu, the path of death is to leave no creature alive in Wanzuan."
"What? You want Wanzuan to surrender, or face death?"
"This is impossible, your Dawu is but a newly-established two-star Dynasty, on an equal footing with us. On what basis do you demand my Wanzuan Sect to surrender, you are utterly delusional!"
"If you want to fight, we\'ll fight. Who the victor will be is yet to be known!"
....
The elders of Wanzuan Sect, upon hearing Chu Yuan\'s unrealistic demand of their submission, each turned livid with rage.
Once they aligned with the court, they would simply become the court\'s men. That would not provide as much comfort and control as they enjoyed being elders.
"Your Majesty of Dawu, do we really have to surrender?"
Zhao Kong\'s face turned unpleasantly, sinking to a new low.
He had thought Chu Yuan would demand a hefty resource tribute. To keep peace, he would not have quibbled much. But he never imagined that Chu Yuan\'s requirement would be their outright submission.
"There is only one path to life, but countless ways to die."
Chu Yuan intended to dominate the sky domain, unavoidable wars impending. It wouldn\'t be so bad to absorb Wanzuan Sect. Compared to an Imperial Dynasty, a clan was much easier to absorb.
"Of course, you can resist." Chu Yuan added nonchalantly.
"It seems Your Majesty is adamantly determined to have our sect submit. However, surrendering is not impossible. The question is whether Your Majesty has the capacity to swallow our sect!"
At this, Zhao Kong, with the power of a Level 9 Divine Abilities practitioner, explosively emitted a myriad of profound lights. A casual wave resulted in tens of thousands of sharp rays of light shooting out.
"The Sect Master has improved in power, already grasping the path of Level 10. Given a few more years, he will surely break into Level 10 of Divine Abilities. This Majesty of Dawu is indeed strong, but defeating the Sect Master on our home ground is simply impossible!"
The elders of Wanzuan Sect brimmed with confidence.
"Let\'s not waste time. My time is rather valuable. Zhao Kong, show me your strength!"
Chu Yuan planted the Sky-Burning Banner into the void. The sky was filled with flame, and with a simple swing of his palm, a fire dragon swept through, directly attacking Zhao Kong with the Great Fire Mage Art.
"Such domineering fire power!" Zhao Kong\'s face showed a slight change, yet he remained composed, "Mysterious Bright Palm, Dawn Lights!"
Being at Level 9 of Divine Abilities, he was close to illuminating the path to Divinity. The power unleashed by this punch was ten times stronger than Wang Lun\'s, and it held countless laws, like sharp blades constantly slashing out.
Bang! With a loud noise, the fire almost consumed Zhao Kong!
Although he managed to perform the Mysterious Bright Palm technique, the Great Fire Mage Art immediately melted it. As a result, he was sent flying, consumed and corroded by the power of fire.
"Your strength is truly terrifying!"
Zhao Kong was greatly shocked.
He could distinctly feel that the previous flames were so powerful that his mana couldn\'t withstand them. If it were not for his profound cultivation, any other elder in the clan would have been burnt to ashes long ago.
Why is he so powerful?
This question bothered Zhao Kong to no end.
It should be noted that during the Great Dawu War, he had also sent people to inquire. Although Chu Yuan was formidable back then, he was nowhere near as terrifying as he is now.
Unfortunately, he didn\'t know that Chu Yuan had a system, the Great Devouring Technique, and the three powerful forces of national destiny.
"Zhao Kong, I\'m giving you a chance to think,"
Chu Yuan said, but he didn\'t stop striking. His overwhelming power and intense aura made everyone in the Wanxuan Clan short of breath.
"Eight Mystical Doors Technique!"
Zhao Kong constantly gathered seals with his hands, and eight seals flew out. This was the powerful martial skill of the Wanxuan Clan, the Eight Mystical Doors Technique. It contained eight transformations, combining offense and defense, able to cope with any unexpected changes.
The eight seals intertwined and circulated ceaselessly, launching a ferocious attack on Chu Yuan.
"Burning Heavens!"
A wave of flames, like a vast sea, swept across from an otherworldly empty space. Suddenly, it was as if a rain of fire fell from the sky, and a trail of falling stars plummeted, setting the entire entrance of the Wanxuan Clan ablaze as if it would completely melt.
These flames were incredibly terrifying, instantly surging towards Zhao Kong.
The Eight Mystical Doors Technique was about to be completely melted!
Thick black smoke rose from Zhao Kong\'s body, his mana unable to resist. Even if he was wearing a defense-grade divine artifact, it was also about to melt into molten iron at this moment, and the entire person was about to turn into ash.
Bang!
The Zhao Kong, whose body was devoured by the flames, fell into the clan!
"Sect Master!" The elder of the Wanxuan Clan roared in shock and anger, "Hurry, hurry, activate the clan\'s protective formation to the extreme, don\'t let him break in!"
The defensive formation was pushed to its extreme, covering the entire mountain gate, its defense level was several times stronger than that of Dragon City. After all, it was a two-star clan.
"Is such a defense useful?"
Chu Yuan\'s expression did not change.
With a wave of his hand, a gigantic object appeared outside the mountain gate of the Wanxuan Clan. Under the refraction of the sunlight, it emitted a chilling killing intent.
This gigantic object was actually a second-grade Divine Machine Cannon!
It didn\'t look any different, but it was ten times larger, like a war fortress.
In the past few months, Chu Yuan had only created hundreds of them.
If this Wanxuan Clan doesn\'t comply, he would very much like to test just how terrifying the power of the Divine Machine Cannon is.
"Is that?"
Vice Sect Master Wang Lun\'s eyes widened, "That\'s the same kind of cannon that blasted through the Great Submerged Pass, do you really want to bombard our Wanxuan Clan!"
"This is not an ordinary cannon!" The Supreme Elder of Wanxuan Clan suddenly recognized it, "I\'ve studied ancient texts, this is the Divine Machine Cannon, it\'s incredibly powerful. It\'s too much for our clan\'s defense to handle, he can actually create the Divine Machine Cannon!"
They were all terrified.
Even if they could survive the bombardment of the Divine Machine Cannon, the clan would not be able to withstand the power of this large cannon.
But they didn\'t dare to go out and fight and destroy the Divine Machine Cannon. Even the Sect Master is not his opponent. If they go out, wouldn\'t they be serving them their heads on a platter?
"My goal is to have your Wanxuan Clan submit to me, but If you can\'t submit, I won\'t force you. I\'ll just have to level your clan with the bombardment of the cannon. I have hundreds of such cannons in my hands, and with my Burning Heavens Flag to ignite the Burning Heavens and boil the ocean and destroy everything, I can completely make your mountain gate disappear from the Sky Hanging Domain."
Chu Yuan used the Divine Machine Cannon to intimidate the Wanxuan Clan and once again initiated the Burning Heavens and Boiling Ocean. The Burning Heavens Flag fluttered in the sky, and instantly a sea of fire gathered in the sky above the Wanxuan Clan. "You only have three breaths of time."
