Chapter 1405: Chapter 1171: Gap_2
‘It seems that crafting this kind of Human Dao Magical Treasure is quite challenging; otherwise, the Daqian Dynasty should directly promote it instead of auctioning it.’ Li Zhixuan watched the bidding rise endlessly, unable to participate due to the high price.
There’s nothing she can do, as she’s only skilled in the Killing Sword Skill, unable to save many Spirit Stones.
Not just Li Zhixuan, but all the Immortal Dao Influences focusing on the Daqian Dynasty thought the sa way, feeling relieved.
If Human Dao Magical Treasures beca widespread, Human Dao Practitioners would qualify to train and study nearby State Domains, potentially leading to conflicts with cultivators.
No one wants more competitors amidst already scarce resources and intense competition!
After quite a while, this Human Dao Magical Treasure was finally claid with an astronomical price.
The rest of the auction held little interest as everyone’s attention remained on this treasure that seed no different from a typical Magical Treasure.
“The auction has concluded successfully! Thank you all for your support!”
In reality, once that Human Dao Magical Treasure was taken, many people left early.
Their purpose was straightforward: to snatch it away!
Li Zhixuan watched the entire auction, even acquiring Spirit Material that could enhance the sharpness of her Magical Treasure, spending most of her Spirit Stones.
While Li Zhixuan resud her training journey, far away at the foot of a mountain, the Confucian practitioners who spent a fortune on the Human Dao Magical Treasure were blocked by a group of cultivators.
“Hand over the Magical Treasure, and we’ll spare your lives!” the leading Human Immortal shouted sternly.
“Hahahahaha, who would dare threaten Confucians within my Daqian territory?! What a colossal joke!” The leading Great Confucian couldn’t help but laugh.
With a wave of his hand, his brush danced wildly through the air, the poetry written full of Killing Aura, coming alive as a Sword Immortal charged out.
The Confucians behind him chanted to empower the Sword Immortal further, simultaneously unleashing other lethal moves against the remaining cultivators.
As soon as these cultivators acted, the Human Dao Law Net, which shrouded every corner of the Daqian Dynasty’s territory, reacted instantly, gathering more of the imperial fortune to suppress their abilities.
This is why many cultivators are reluctant to stay in the Daqian Dynasty: their strength is already suppressed by sixty to seventy percent when inactive, and if they engage in combat, especially against officials, their power is decimated, leaving them vulnerable to others.
However, these cultivators seed to have found a way to lessen the suppression of imperial fortune!
They displayed a small seal, gathering the power of the surrounding mountains and rivers to bear so of the suppression.
Even so, their strength was reduced to only forty to fifty percent.
“I see! The Immortal Dao found a thod to counter, granting you this audacity.” The Great Confucian was slightly surprised, realizing why they had such courage.
This increased the killing intent in the Great Confucian’s heart; he wanted that seal to understand its principle, which might help Daqian.
This was his public motivation, yet from a personal perspective, resolving this could bring fa and possibly imperial comndation, benefiting his entire lineage.
It was mutual restraint indeed; as soon as the Daqian Dynasty crafted Human Dao Magical Treasures, the Immortal Dao devised thods to maintain strength under the Human Dao Law Net.
“Kill!”
Both forces stopped speaking and fought desperately, hoping to utterly destroy each other.
Boom—
Ultimately, this was the ho ground of Human Dao practitioners, and the cultivators were at a significant disadvantage, unable to compete, not only being blown away but also losing the small seal.
As the Confucians pursued their victory, ready to eliminate them utterly, several streams of Spirit Light rushed in from not far away.
“Retreat!”
Seeing this, the Great Confucian, regardless of who was coming, unhesitatingly led the students to swiftly leave using Divine Powers.
The defeated cultivators needed no explanation; in their current state, any minor disturbance could endanger them, so how dare they linger?
“Damn it! Still a step too late.”
When another group arrived, the place was already empty, both sides cautious, erasing all traces of themselves, making pursuit difficult.
…
anwhile, Li Zhixuan encountered a minor problem as well.
She was targeted by a Human Dao Practitioner!
“Within my Daqian territory, you are no match for ! Surrender obediently and hand over all your treasures, and I’ll guarantee your safe departure,” Li Si said, eyes full of greed.
In reality, such words were aningless, but they offered a barely perceptible hope of survival, just like the tactic of leaving one exit unblocked in a siege, forcing them to make a choice.
The tactic was to inspire a glimr of hope to avoid true desperation.
“Heh! With just you?”
Li Zhixuan sneered, not wanting to waste words, her figure moved like an afterimage, and the Mysterious Sword appeared in her hand, slashing directly at him.
“Shield!”
Li Si’s face changed dramatically, he roared, his Mana flooded out, gathering surrounding imperial fortune, hoping to block the strike.
A Human Dao Practitioner’s power doesn’t solely stem from Spiritual Energy but a mix of Spiritual Energy, fortune, and spirit, making them less reliant on Spiritual Energy.
Yet unexpectedly, the thod usually effective against cultivators was so fragile against Li Zhixuan, shattering directly!
If not for Li Si’s strong survival instinct allowing him to barely dodge, he might have beco a victim of the sword.
“With such strength, you dare to imitate others in ambushing and seizing treasures? Truly ignorant of death!” Li Zhixuan sneered, another Sword Light severing his head directly.
During her exile in Daqian, she was surprised to discover her Mana could easily dismantle Human Dao Practitioners’ thods!
The reason seed linked to her Sword Qi filled with Evil Qi and killing intent.
Despite being suppressed, her unique Mana wasn’t widely known, making opponents unguarded, vulnerable to her ambush.
“Hmm?”
Collecting Li Si’s belongings, Li Zhixuan suddenly felt sothing peculiar and examined the Magical Treasure he failed to utilize thoroughly.
“This differs from previous Magical Treasures; it sowhat resembles the Human Dao Magical Treasure seen at the auction,” she remarked slowly after so ti.
As thoughts churned, a suspicion erged.
It’s likely that the Daqian Dynasty already devised Human Dao Magical Treasures but chose to conceal them, possibly harboring so sche.
This grand auction was likely part of the plan.
Perhaps the Daqian Dynasty has already begun acting!
Yet what does any of this have to do with her? Li Zhixuan shook her head dismissively; she only aid to refine her Dao Heart through mortal experiences and had no intention of participating in certain machinations.
As events unfolded as she envisioned, tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of Great Confucians quietly appeared behind Wanling State, launching an attack as Daqian’s forces attracted local cultivators to defend.
The pincer attack led to Wanling State’s rapid collapse, cultivators suffering massive losses, and unsurprisingly, it couldn’t be safeguarded.
The Daqian Dynasty continued their sweep, driving cultivators out while establishing prefectures and counties, establishing governance, making it seem as if it was not a great war.
This action terrified cultivators in other states, now forbidding commoners from the Daqian direction entry while preparing for conflict.
Unbeknownst to them, the Daqian Dynasty had no intention of further territorial expansion; they attacked Wanling State to test Human Dao Magical Treasures’ effectiveness in battle.
Indeed!
This cruel war, causing countless cultivators to die or flee, was rely an experint in the eyes of the Daqian Dynasty.
