If the entire Cloud World was ruled by this Da Qian Ruler, then in just a few years, the people of the Five Continents and Twelve Islands would be able to enjoy a prosperous era and not suffer the pain of war, right?
However, be it the Taishang Emperor Yin Yu, the Shi Family, or his grandfather Shi Qianli, they wouldn't give up their land just like that.
Even Shiyue, who was magnanimous and always pitied the people, wouldn't give up.
In the end, the Cloud World was going to experience a war that would last for who knows how long. During the calamity, who knows how many lives would be lost.
Sometimes, even Shi Qianli himself couldn't understand. Was power really so intoxicating, such that people wouldn't give up on it?
Even he, after the Shi Family slowly took control of a portion of the military, it was like he was addicted to poppy, craving for the fragrance of power.
Although the Shi Family wasn't one of the Five Great Families, they had used the battle of God Falling Plains to become the top power within the Taishang. They controlled the twelve provinces in the southwest. The military power they held even exceeded that of the Imperial City.
Outside, they had seventy worlds and millions of troops as reinforcements! Their strength was not much weaker than the current overlord of the Cloud World.
As a direct bloodline disciple of the Shi Family, he was also accepted by the entire Shi Family. Slowly, they placed their hopes on him. At this moment, a casual word from him could decide the lives and futures of many people. He could look down on the people like an ant.
Although Shi Wuji woke up from time to time and reflected on himself every day. However, many times, he unknowingly hurt many people and he didn't even notice.
Six years ago, he was a commoner struggling at the bottom. Six years later, he was one of the richest and most powerful people in the Taishang.
However, was this what he wanted?
He remembered that a few years ago, even when he was at his weakest, hungriest, and most helpless, the ambition in his chest didn't disappear.
One day, when he stood out, he would let the people in the world have their own fields and houses to live in.
He wanted to totally destroy that man-eat-man world. One day, even if he was rich and powerful, he wouldn't be able to casually trample on others.
He would also let the people in the world not be trapped by sickness and death. The tragedy of his mother being seriously ill but having no money to treat her illness would no longer happen.
These absurd thoughts would only be laughable when they grew up. They were just dissatisfied with reality and unrealistic expectations.
However, in the Gantian Mountain City he went to, it was slowly coming true …
His ideal world had actually appeared in reality.
Even if there were still various deficiencies and hidden dangers, he couldn't ask for more ….
His uncle, Shi Yue, was ambitious and bold. His courage and insight were outstanding. Regardless of ability or wisdom, he did not think twice about the world. He also had the ambition to rule the world.
However, would his uncle be able to do all of this in the future?
Shi Wuji was in a daze, until Shi Yue's voice woke him up.
"Wuji, what do you think?"
When Shi Yue asked this question, Gongsun Minglie and Qiu Nan also cast their gazes over. His gaze was solemn, he didn't underestimate Shi Wuji just because of his young age.
Shi Wuji had a rare Combat Martial Body, and his intuition was astonishing. Not only could it be used in martial arts, but it could also be used on the battlefield.
During these few years, Shi Wuji's strength had soared. His cultivation speed even exceeded that of Shi Yue in the past. He swiftly rose up in the army and became one of the generals that the Shi Family relied on the most.
During these few years of conquering the outer region, due to Shi Wuji's intuition towards danger, the Shi Family was able to avoid many dangers, winning battle after battle and advancing swiftly.
With these deeds in front of them, the two of them naturally paid a lot of attention to Shi Wuji's judgement.
"It is really dangerous, I feel like this small world is about to come alive."
Without hesitating, Shi Wuji weighed his words and tried his best to express his feelings clearly. This was indeed what he felt in his heart.
Ever since he had entered this place, the sense of disharmony and danger had been plaguing his mind.
"However, if I were to choose, I would still go in and take a look. No matter what happens in the tomb, our Shi Family will be the first to bear the brunt. "
Shiyue's eyes were filled with praise. That was indeed the case. Be it Yin Yu obtaining the 12 Copper Men or if something happened in the tomb, the Taishang Country would be the first to bear the brunt.
Given Yinyu's personality, he would definitely settle the internal affairs first before settling the external affairs. However, if that Qin Emperor were to revive and rule the world again, Would he choose the central plateaus, which was in a state of disunity and war, or the Great Qian Dynasty, which was prosperous and had a thriving military force, be it?
What was more gratifying was that Shi Wuji's words had already treated him as a part of the Shi Family.
At this moment, Shi Wuji only pointed to the southwest, "I feel that it is best to enter from the southwest, that place should be the safest."
Shi Yue nodded his head in deep thought and didn't ask for the reason. This was Shi Wuji's intuition. Even if he asked, Shi Wuji wouldn't be able to say the reason and would only say that it was his intuition.
Later events would often prove that Shi Wuji's judgment was correct.
"Then let's go southwest! Take a detour there to enter the city … "
Shi Wuji didn't listen carefully, he was in a daze once more as he continued to think about what happened just now.

Spiritual energy exploded, instantly charging several miles of land. It caused the 4 black deer whose bodies were totally deformed to explode into pieces. They turned into black mud and scattered all around.
Osamu Hara's mind didn't relax, instead, he became more wary. He knew that these black deer didn't actually die, but their bodies were temporarily shattered.
In just a short while, they would be able to recover. Their souls were scattered and restrained within this world. Even with his Ten Thousand Spirit Extinction ability, it was tough for him to wipe them out.
Looking from the outside, this place was indeed really peaceful, with birds chirping and flowers fragrant.
However, the moment he entered, he realized that every blade of grass, tree, leaf, and flower was dead.
The beasts that lived within had all turned into bone-chilling monsters under the attack of the thick corpse energy. Under the restrictions of this small world, it was tough for them to be wiped out.
Walking within this small world, one would face the risk of dying at every moment.
Even a small blade of grass, if it suddenly exploded, would show abilities and combat strength that God Realm Cultivators couldn't have.
In comparison, the mechanisms in the tomb were like child's play.
The red and white flames suddenly burned, giving off an intense white light.
Zong Shou tossed Xiaori out, revealing its 100-foot Qilin form. The moment it appeared, its face was frowning and its eyes were filled with disgust.
With its body as the center, within 10,000 feet, there was a sizzling sound.
That was the corpses and corpses after being burned and purified. However, the corpse energy was really thick and 10,000 feet away, it was still fine.
What was also released was the Black Qilin. This Qilin was forcefully swallowed by Xiaori and fell to late God Realm.
Although Xiuguan forcefully used his powers to set up a spirit contract with it, making it one of Zong Shou's Protector Beasts. However, it still couldn't hide its hatred towards Zong Shou.
However, it knew that it couldn't resist. This Black Qilin was quite tame and didn't resist Zong Shou's orders.
At this moment, it was greedily absorbing the darkness power in this world.
However, it also didn't care about the corpses' power. It only liked to absorb the purest darkness hidden within the corpses' power.
The Saint Qilin's light burned and the Black Qilin's darkness sucked. Through Zong Shou, they were transforming one another.
Slowly, this region was purified. That weird fragrance disappeared and only thick corpse energy was left.
Everything in front of them returned to normal. The grass and trees withered and those beasts slowly turned into bones.
However, as long as Zong Shou and the others passed by, these purified places would swiftly recover back to normal.
However, with that, the five of them were much faster and they didn't need to defend against the attacks of these dead things.
With these two Black and White Qilins, any weird phenomenon caused by Vengeful Power and Death Energy couldn't get close to 10,000 feet.
"So, Taishi Demon Lord's Black Qilin is in your hands."
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at the Black Qilin. Her eyes were filled with shock.
In the past, Taishi Demon Lord's Protector Spiritual Pet was peak Saint Realm.
At this moment, even if it fell to God Realm, with the abilities that it grasped and its understanding of the laws, it wouldn't be able to do anything. Normal Saint Realm Cultivators weren't the match of this Black Qilin.
This should be another trump card of Zong Shou.
However, what Su Xiaoxiao was more curious about was how the Black and White Qilin could coexist. That was just unimaginable.
However, Zong Shou managed to do it. Was it the Unlimited Beginning and End Technique that he created?
"Actually, we should have let them out long ago. Otherwise, we could have saved 8 hours."
With the purification of the Black and White Qilin along with her Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique, apart from the Dragon Formation, the other dead things wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
"It is not that I don't want to but that I can't …"
Zong Shou shook his head. Actually, he still couldn't control the Black Qilin that he named Xiaoyue.
This time, he had no choice. He was too far behind and could only use the power of the Black Qilin to get close to the center of the small world.
In his heart, he was thinking about the battle not long ago. When he left, he felt like someone was spying on him.
At first, he thought that it was Li Biexue. With an End Realm Saint Venerable's skills, it wasn't surprising.
Then, he felt that it wasn't right. Luckily, it didn't last for long and disappeared in just a few moments.
Was it the Xuan Peeking Mirror? Or the Chaos Crystal Eye?
Just as he was thinking about it, Zong Shou saw two people in the distance. One of them was actually someone he was really familiar with.
"Jingyin?"
Zong Shou instinctively increased his speed and flew over.
She was also heading towards where Zong Shou was at. Jingyin was the first to descend, walking barefoot. Many lotuses formed beneath her feet and all the power dissipated. When she got close, she looked at Zong Shou with a weird expression.
"Did the Future Buddha go through a tribulation not long ago?"
Jingyin's voice turned serious and her tone was filled with shock, "Jingyin feels like there is another killing tribulation that is about to descend. It is 10 times more dangerous than before! It seems to be related to something that can allow the Buddha to instantly confirm the Dao and roam the Nine Heavens. It might be a person, a matter, or an item. I am unable to confirm.
