Chapter 531: 56th Chapter: Tao Country_2
As a mber of the Zhi Ge Departnt, he bore the duty of defending his land, but in the face of the Imperial Camp Army’s insurrection, he chose to flee.
If he were held accountable later on, even as a Martial Arts Master, his fate would not be too good.
So, with no imdiate danger to his life, Jiang Dong did not run far.
He still wanted to observe the situation to see if there was any chance for redies.
Then he saw the kiloter-sized Dharma Form of Qingxu True Monarch appear within the city of Ming Province.
After the shock, Jiang Dong was not afraid.
An ordinary person might be intimidated by such a majestic Dharma Form, but Jiang Dong, as a Martial Arts Master, would not only look at the surface.
He could sense that this Dharma Form was only a facade; the power it contained was not actually strong.
Under these conditions, he was not enough to be scared away.
What he feared more was the identity of Qingxu True Monarch.
But then, as five Dharma Forms appeared and the Five Elents Formation took shape, the power of the Dharma Forms gradually grew stronger!
When the golden dragon coiled around the Dharma Form, Jiang Dong’s expression completely changed.
His Divine Skill was ‘Insight’, which allowed him to see the true nature of all things, and he could even see ‘Taoism’ across realms in advance!
Thus, even though he was not a Magician, he saw at a glance that the golden dragon was condensed from the Emperor’s Dragon Qi.
This Emperor’s Dragon Qi was one of the world’s rarest ‘materials’. The Emperor, of course, had the most Emperor’s Dragon Qi, but due to his own low realm, he could not fully utilize the marvelous uses of the Dragon Qi.
Now that this Dragon Qi had reached Qingxu True Monarch, it finally revealed unimaginable power!
“Was this Dragon Qi stolen? Is this the reason why Daluo Sect was targeted? What exactly does Qingxu True Monarch want?”
As Jiang Dong used his ‘Insight’ Divine Skill to observe the Dharma Form and the golden dragon in the city, he quickly contemplated.
All of a sudden, a strong sense of crisis washed over him!
The colossal Dharma Form within the city looked over in Jiang Dong’s direction.
Startled and alard, Jiang Dong turned and ran without hesitation, activating his movent technique with Tao Power, instantly rushing out hundreds of ters.
Behind him, the Qingxu True Monarch’s Dharma Form in the city quickly beca ‘solid’.
This ‘solid’ was not about the Dharma Form shrinking but rather the power within it growing stronger, suddenly giving the Dharma Form a real, flesh-and-blood sensation.
The next second, the gaze that landed on Jiang Dong felt as tangible as anything real.
The Qingxu True Monarch’s Dharma Form raised its hundreds of ters long arm, pointing in the direction where Jiang Dong was.
Boom!
An enormous purple thunderbolt, as thick as a water barrel, spontaneously ford and struck towards the fleeing Jiang Dong.
Jiang Dong had sensed the thunderbolt’s formation beforehand with his ‘Insight’ Divine Skill.
Looking up into the sky, his face was filled with despair.
‘Insight’ allowed him to vividly ‘see’ how that imnse, mountain-like True Power rapidly moved through the air.
And how it drew in and condensed the thunder energy, finally turning it into a thunderbolt that struck towards him.
He could even ‘see’ all the internal structures of the thunderbolt clearly, predicting exactly when it would hit him.
He could plainly see everything.
But he just couldn’t dodge or block it.
Bang!
The thunderbolt struck, and the earth trembled.
At last, a deep charred pit, over ten ters deep, appeared on the ground, and Jiang Dong’s flesh had turned to scorched earth.
The Martial Arts Master, annihilated with a re gesture!
For Qingxu True Monarch, such a feat was not difficult.
But his true body was far away, thousand of miles apart, atop Daluo Peak.
To release such power over a thousand miles away, even True Monarchs or Lin Tianyi, the current ‘Peak’ of the world, could not achieve.
But Qingxu True Monarch had done it!
Daluo Peak, the forbidden area behind the mountain.
Inside the cave dwelling, Tai Yu was firmly suppressed by the restraints and Qingxu True Monarch’s power.
The true body of Qingxu True Monarch was still beside Tai Yu, having gone nowhere.
As Qingxu True Monarch took action to obliterate Jiang Dong, Tai Yu felt it intuitively.
“How is it, Uncle-Master? Did you sense it?”
Qingxu True Monarch looked toward Tai Yu.
Tai Yu had by then regained his composure and looked at Qing Xu with icy eyes:
“What have you done?”
Qing Xu True Monarch gave a slight smile. “Do you know Jiang Dong of Ming Province’s provincial city, uncle?”
Tai Yu was taken aback. “The Chief of the Zhi Ge Departnt?”
“Exactly, that’s him.”
Qing Xu True Monarch nodded, “His Divine Skill is ‘Insight.’ Should he beco a Grandmaster, he might well be one of the likeliest candidates to beco the eighth Martial Saint.”
Omniscience is omnipotence. Although ‘Insight’ doesn’t grant Jiang Dong omniscience, it’s akin to a divine technique in battle or cultivation!
That’s why Qing Xu True Monarch held Jiang Dong in such high regard.
“Because he possesses this Divine Skill, I had to be extra secretive with my arrangents in the provincial city of Ming Province, which took considerable effort. The thing I am about to do is crucial, and if he were to discern the critical aspects, it could ruin everything. That’s why I just killed him.”
Qing Xu True Monarch spoke lightly.
“You, from here, killed Jiang Dong?”
Tai Yu’s expression shifted.
Even with his realm and experience, it was hard for him to imagine such a thing!
A smile appeared on Qing Xu True Monarch’s face: “Hard to imagine, isn’t it? This is precisely the power I wish to show you, uncle!”
After so thought, Tai Yu said:
“You harnessed the Emperor’s Dragon Qi to send your True Power over a long distance? You… you wish to establish your own nation?!”
He suddenly had a terrifying speculation.
The main feature of the Emperor’s Dragon Qi is its area of effect because Dragon Energy originates from the nation.
First cos the nation, then cos the Emperor.
Within the boundaries of the nation, the Emperor’s Dragon Qi can exert its influence!
However, to achieve this, the person controlling the Dragon Energy must have a sufficiently high realm and have enough powerful allies to cooperate, as well as enough materials to set up the formation.
Qing Xu True Monarch t all these conditions!
But the Dragon Energy he possessed was stolen, like water without a source, like a tree without roots.
If he wanted to possess such a ans for an extended period, Qing Xu True Monarch had to have his own dominion!
“You madman, do you think you can succeed?”
Tai Yu cursed outright.
He didn’t believe Qing Xu True Monarch could be successful.
Not to ntion that the strength of just Daluo Sect was insufficient, even if combined with the entire force of the Taoists, it wouldn’t be enough to establish a new nation within the Da Lan Dynasty!
“Just by myself, coupled with the Emperor’s Dragon Qi I’ve stolen over the years, I indeed wouldn’t succeed, but with the eight hundred years of fate of Daluo Sect, I might stand a chance.”
Qing Xu True Monarch said with a smile:
“Uncle, as I said earlier, within the Daluo Sect, I am invincible! If the Tao Country is established, then I will be invincible within the entire boundaries of the Tao Country! With the Emperor’s Dragon Qi, I can transmit my power anywhere within Tao Country at any ti. Uncle, do you believe this thod is insufficient to establish a nation within the Da Lan Dynasty?”
Tai Yu was shocked and finally understood Qing Xu True Monarch’s plan.
First, to establish the Tao Country using the Emperor’s Dragon Qi and the eight hundred years of Daluo Sect’s fate, and then, by leveraging the nature of the Emperor’s Dragon Qi, allow his power to be transmitted to any place within Tao Country at any ti.
A peerless strong man who can transmit his power to any location within his nation at will.
One person as a nation!
What kind of nation could not be conquered?
Or rather, what kind of price would need to be paid to conquer it?
This was sothing even Emperor Taizu of the Da Lan Dynasty never managed to achieve.
Firstly, the opponent was a Martial Saint and not a True Monarch; the Emperor’s Dragon Qi was more suitable for Magic Dao than Martial Arts.
Secondly, the territory of the Da Lan Dynasty was too vast; it was impossible to cover the whole nation.
But Qing Xu True Monarch didn’t need such a vast territory; the land he wanted to cover was rely the size of one province.
As long as his Tao Country could stand firm, new Dragon Energy would arise, belonging solely to him as the ruler of the Tao Country!
At that point, he and True Man Qingding’s real sche could officially begin.
Now, Qing Xu True Monarch had successfully taken the first step.
The Five Elents Dharma Forms were complete!
“Uncle, I will surely succeed!”
Qing Xu True Monarch spoke thus.
