The moment the Heavenly God Sect's messenger and the group felt the arrival of the grand Weili energy, they knew that things were going to be bad.
However, this change came too quickly. The moment the energy came out, all things in the heaven and earth began to shake. Under such circumstances, even if they wanted to, they couldn't make a decision.
They saw a figure emerge from the spirit light and slowly materialize. Finally, a tall and straight young man with long sleeves walked out. Judging from his appearance, he wasn't even thirty years old, but deep in his eyes, there was a sense of seeing through all things in this world.
The moment the Heavenly God Sect's messenger saw this person, he felt an inexplicable sense of fear.
They didn't expect Zhan Xinping to have such a trick up his sleeve. It seemed like he invited a supreme Weili expert to come here.
The Heavenly God Sect also had a similar method that could invite ghosts and deities into the world to fight, but it had never attracted such a powerful existence. At this moment, he could only hope that Zhan Xinping didn't know this person, or that this person simply didn't care about them.
Even though Zhan Xinping had never seen Jiang Zheng before, he had some knowledge and knew that even the Heavenly Grotto wouldn't have this kind of momentum. He stepped forward and kneeled down, then he loudly shouted: "Qincang disciple Zhan Xinping greets the Heavenly God."
Jiang Zheng glanced over and said: "Disciple Zhan Xinping lost contact with you at the Myriad Worlds Instrument, why is this?"
Zhan Xinping didn't dare to say that it was his own selfishness, so he lowered his head and said: "That year, when disciple was scouting for enemies, I accidentally lost this item. Later on, I bitterly searched for it. Just Now, I finally found it. I am truly ashamed to face the sect."
Jiang Zheng glanced at him but didn't say anything. He could see that Zhan Xinping's words were not entirely true, but even if he was to be dealt with, it was a matter within the sect. At the moment, he wasn't in charge of the sect's affairs, so there was no need for him to say anything. No matter what, since he was here, he had to bring this disciple back.
He said: "Stand up."
Zhan Xinping said yes and stood up obediently.
Jiang Zheng's gaze swept over, and he saw the people of Heavenly Saint Cult in the surroundings. He stretched out his hand and pointed. "Do you recognize these people?"
Zhan Xinping said hatefully, "Reporting to Shangzhen, this junior calls himself a disciple of Heavenly Saint Cult. In the cult, they often offer sacrifices to ghosts and gods, which might be related to the matter that the sect had instructed me to find. Disciple personally came here to investigate, wanting to clarify the situation before reporting it to the sect. I didn't expect to be careless and get surrounded by this junior, so I had no choice but to inform the sect in advance." At this point, he raised his voice and said, "These people are very cunning. Go, don't let them escape."
Jiang Zheng said calmly, "This person can't escape."
Zhan Xinping was startled, he looked around and was shocked to find that there seemed to be a layer of vague air barrier around him, and when he looked outside, everything seemed to be frozen, as if the two were no longer in the same world. He couldn't help but be shocked, secretly marveling at the means of the almighty.
Jiang Zheng said, "Wait here."
With a shift of his feet, he arrived in front of the emissary and the people of Heavenly Saint Cult.
When the emissary saw Jiang Zheng standing so close to him, he instantly felt a chill down his spine, and his entire body trembled.
Jiang Zheng would naturally not be as courteous to these outsiders as he was to the disciples of the sect. He immediately tried to deduce all of their pasts. However, when he did this just now, he noticed that there were strands of external forces obstructing him, causing him to be unable to continue.
As expected, there was an almighty existence behind them.
However, even though he couldn't trace back to the almighty existence behind these people, the secrets of these people couldn't be hidden. As long as he pieced all the clues together, he would be able to get a rough idea of the situation.
At this moment, the emissary gathered his courage and squeezed out a voice. "We are Heavenly Saint Cult members. Sire, sire, sire, for the sake of Heavenly Saint …"
Jiang Zheng ignored him. In the past, the Secret Skill of Startling Dawn that he had cultivated mainly focused on killing. However, that was only the skill of the predecessors. After he had achieved mortal shedding, due to his understanding of the principles, it had changed according to his heart, and all kinds of wondrous effects had been derived. It could be said that compared to the original technique, it was a completely different path.
He looked at the emissary, and his eyes slowly lit up. First, an aurora appeared, followed by a bit of scorching true fire. In an instant, it was reflected in the eyes of everyone present.
This spark first ignited in the heart of this person, and in an instant, it became a prairie fire, jumping and spreading in the minds of the people of Heavenly Saint Cult. At the same time, countless images flashed in front of his eyes.
Tens of thousands of miles away, the Great Qi Mountain was where the headquarters of Heavenly Saint Cult was.
This place was built on a tall mountain, and the entire city was built from sturdy rocks. It was divided into 96 levels, and it had the power to reach the sky.
After Heavenly Saint Cult had conquered most of the sects in the mortal world, they had ordered these people to use special divine arts and use millions of people to build this city.
This city was grand and majestic. As long as one stood on the border of the Du Kingdom, no matter where they looked, they would be able to see this mysterious shadow reaching the sky. It could be considered a marvel in the mortal world.
At this moment, the Heavenly God Sect's Grand Priest was standing at the top of the Heavenly Pavilion, and he was reverently worshipping a golden ball. This object occasionally flickered as if it was responding to something.
However, the moment he bowed down again, he suddenly let out a miserable scream. Golden flames spurted out from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Then, he turned into a pile of ashes in front of his close followers.
At this moment, not only him, but the devout believers in the Heavenly Saint City were also the same. Everyone walking on the streets suddenly had flames erupting from their bodies. In the blink of an eye, they all turned into smoke, leaving only their clothes behind.
In the Du Kingdom's capital, the Young Emperor, who was just Only Twelve years old, sat on the throne in a trembling manner. He fearfully looked at the Heavenly God Sect's Heavenly Saint Messenger sitting not far away from him.
At this moment, the officials around him were either subservient to the Heavenly Saint Sect, or they were part of the sect. Even his attendants had become believers of the sect. He had already become a puppet, and he only came to the court every day to put on an act. He didn't even know how long he could sit there.
After the court officials finished reading the memorial, it should have been the Young Emperor's turn to speak. However, he didn't dare to open his mouth. He looked at the Heavenly God Sect's Heavenly Saint Messenger and asked: "Heavenly, Heavenly Saint Messenger, do you have anything else to say?"
The Heavenly Saint Messenger snorted, stood up, and looked down. Anyone who was stared at by him couldn't help but lower their head. He revealed a satisfied expression and was about to speak, but suddenly, a flame appeared on his body, and with a loud bang, he turned into nothingness.
This scene did not only occur in these two places, but also in the four directions of the Earth Continent.
Under the sky, anyone who truly worshipped the so-called Heavenly Saint all turned into ashes at the same time. The Heavenly God Sect's great power that had been accumulated for countless years vanished in just one night!
Jiang Zheng quietly stood in the same spot. Each time a Heavenly Saint follower was burned, he would see their memories. When all the followers died, he also roughly sorted out the clues at this place.
Five hundred years ago, the Jiao Kingdom's Founding Ancestor wanted to build a national mausoleum. He chose the Great Qi Mountain as the location for the Feng Shui. There was a continuous stretch of black stones, and not even a blade of grass grew there. Then, he began to build a large amount of construction and chisel stones to open the mountain.
However, one day, the mountain wall collapsed, revealing a ten zhang gap. They originally thought that it was a natural cave, but later on, they found out that this place was very strange. Anyone who entered never came out again.
At that time, the commander responsible for the construction of the Feng Shui Imperial Mausoleum immediately mobilized a group of elite soldiers equipped with sturdy shields and armor. Then, he sent a group of strange people to investigate, but in the end, there was no news of these people.
After the Jiao Kingdom's Founding Ancestor heard of this matter, he invited a divination master. The divination was "not beneficial to the kingdom", so he ordered people to seal this place and forbid all records.
Several hundred years later, the Jiao Dynasty was destroyed and the Du Dynasty was established. Because of the loss of the scriptures and the intentional concealment, no one knew about this matter. However, there seemed to be a mysterious force pushing this generation's ruler to choose this place as the location of the Feng Shui Imperial Mausoleum.
This time, after the excavation, they encountered the same strange event from several hundred years ago.
However, the Emperor of the Second Dynasty was exceptionally determined this time. He ordered for the matter to be cleared up. Countless people were sent into the cave, and he offered great rewards. He summoned all the talents in the world to investigate. In the end, more than ten people came out alive, and they brought back three secret manuals.
There were many secret techniques and divine powers recorded in the scriptures. There was also a picture of the Heavenly Saint. What was mysterious was that one didn't need to do anything. All one had to do was worship it and they could obtain unimaginable power. However, before this secret scripture was taken into the palace walls, it was lost halfway. For some unknown reason, it ended up in the hands of a king of a small kingdom, which was the origin of the Heavenly Saint Cult.
This king obtained his divine powers through worshiping the "Heavenly Saint". He then followed the instructions of the secret scripture and created all kinds of powerful instruments. After accumulating them for dozens of years, he suddenly launched an attack. He invaded the kingdom, occupied the land, and attacked the sects. No one could stop him. Now, except for some remote places, almost all of them were under the control of the Heavenly Saint Cult.
However, no matter how powerful he was, there was still a limit to his power in this world. Jiang Zheng only needed to use a few tricks and he didn't even deliberately target it, and it was destroyed in an instant.
After Jiang Zheng finished reading, he realized that most of the people in front of him had turned to dust on the spot, but there was still one person who survived. It was obvious that he said he worshiped the Heavenly Saint, but he didn't believe it at all in his heart, which was why he didn't die.
However, this person was still a follower of the Heavenly Saint Cult, and he had also participated in the hunt for the Qincang disciples, so he couldn't let him live. With a flash of fire in his eyes, this person instantly turned into nothingness.
However, when he was about to leave, he discovered that there was a scroll left behind where the messenger's body had turned to dust. He thought about it, but he couldn't find it in the person's memory. With a thought, he activated his magic power, and the scroll slowly opened. On it was a picture of a god riding on a monster with the head of a cow and the body of a tiger. He was surrounded by many heavenly ladies.
Jiang Zheng was very cautious. He knew that this picture might be related to the person behind it, so he didn't force himself to look at it. However, even if he didn't search for it, it didn't mean that the other party wouldn't take the initiative to find him. Just Now, he was about to leave, but his movements paused. He didn't know when, but the ground under his feet had turned into scorched earth, and it bulged slightly, gathering into a ghostly face with a strange smile. He just happened to be standing on the mouth of the ghostly face!
