Chapter 59: Land of the Dead, the Great Sun Dharma Jingwei Bird (Begging for Monthly Votes, Begging for Follows)

"How is this possible!?"

At this moment, both Kurokawa Seiki and the various retainers were stunned.

In their expectations, the intervention of a Law Seed Realm elder would set everything right.

But now, they were being counter-attacked by a boy of the Dao Foundation Realm.

Pinned to the ground, his life or death unknown.

They thought he was a vicious dog, but it turned out to be a fierce tiger descending the mountain!

It is not that no one has defeated a Law Seed in the Dao Foundation, but those must be geniuses above the Old Talismans.

Is the Tianxia Alliance truly so full of talent,

that another unknown top genius has emerged?

Zhao Zhao Yinman watched this scene, her mouth slightly open, and said: "Twenty talismans are gone. The unit only reimburses eighty percent; you pay the rest."

"..."

Jiang Yan pretended not to hear, his gaze turning to Kurokawa Seiki, and he said calmly:

"Where are those children?"

His shadow soldiers and horses had searched the entire building but found no prison cell where they were held.

"I... I don't know!"

Kurokawa Seiki felt his gaze, fear spreading in her heart; she pressed her legs together, feeling deep helplessness for the first time.

Seeing the killing intent spreading in Jiang Yan's eyes, she hurriedly said:

"I was not involved in this matter; only Kurokawa Ryuji and the elder know."

She did not want to sacrifice herself for a fool, especially since this incident was provoked by Kurokawa Ryuji.

Even if her father blamed her, she had an excuse.

Anyway,

that guy had already fled amidst the chaos after the elder was defeated; if he were caught, it would only prove he was useless.

No one even knows how strong the Law Seed truly is.

This is the safest place.

"Kurokawa Ryuji..."

Jiang Yan murmured, looking at the opened door; he did not rush to pursue but turned to the old man who was upside down and said:

"Sleeping is not allowed here."

Killing the person and piercing the heart!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Yellow sand suddenly whipped up inside the room; the wind howled, and the yellow sand struck the walls, rapidly corroding them to reveal the steel bars inside, which were appearing with rust at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Crack, crack, crack!

At the edge of the old man's head buried in the ground, the stones were rapidly eroded and weathered; large amounts of yellow water and dust surrounded his body, quickly righting his form and floating in mid-air.

At this moment, his face was covered in dust, looking somewhat wretched; the Sanskrit sword that had pierced his body was slowly pushed outward, bringing out much flesh and blood residue.

Finally, with a "Bang," it popped out, becoming a afterimage that pierced toward Jiang Yan.

However, the instant it approached, it merged into the arm guard like a young swallow returning to its nest.

As a offspring born from him, how could it harm its creator?

The old man originally wanted to give a warning, but seeing this, his face turned so gloomy it could drip water, and he said in a cold voice:

"Good, very good! In my life, Kurokawa Sosuke has never tasted such intense humiliation..."

"That is because you are young; you will taste more in the future." Zhao Zhao Yinman comforted him kindly.

Although she was awake not much, she was a person of the Ming Dynasty, so she was qualified to say this.

The yellow sand intensified again.

Filthy water turned into raindrops, corroding the precious carpet.

"..."

Jiang Yan glanced at her, finding that the human-machine zombie was straightforwardly mocking indiscriminately, which could very well attract the BOSS's aggro.

If she were a bit meatier, she could serve as a front-line tank.

"Hahahaha..."

Kurokawa Sosuke laughed in extreme anger; his cold laughter echoed in the office, and he said in a hoarse voice:

"If I had not been unprepared for a moment, how could I have been injured by you? There is an ancient saying in Tianxia: 'If you are given a face but refuse to take it,' then let you feel the power of the White Cherry Mid-Grade Law Seed—【Withering Grip】."

As he spoke, yellow dust surged, filling with large amounts of yellow-black water, forming a hideous, filthy giant ghost hand, covered in rot, emitting an aura of life withering.

This was him deliberately restraining his power; otherwise, the entire Divine Cherry Building would have been corroded and collapsed.

Zhao Zhao Yinman's talisman snake was merely touched and instantly turned to ash.

It didn't even last one second.

The Law Seed Realm nurtured the seed of spells; their own spiritual energy had already transformed into magical power, producing a qualitative change.

It formed a crushing dominance over lower realms.

However, facing such a powerful enemy, Jiang Yan's expression remained calm; he even had the leisure to ask Zhao Zhao Yinman: "Does this count as the Ji Earth or Gui Water path?"

Zhao Zhao Yinman answered without hesitation: "Ji Earth. In the legends of the Tianxia Alliance, the Yellow Springs are only a part of the Netherworld; the eternal rootless water flows, washing away the resentment from the souls of the dead, separating the Yin World and the Yang World.

However, in White Cherry mythology, the Yellow Springs are divided into three realms: Takamagahara, the Human Realm, and the Land of the Dead; and the foundation of the Land is the State, which is Earth.

Especially since one of the progenitor gods, 【Izanami-no-Mikoto】, died giving birth to the Fire God 【Kagu-tsuchi】, becoming the goddess of Yellow Springs filth; although she appears related to water, after her death she continued to nurture offspring, devouring the human world, and even the entire White Cherry pantheon is filled with the 【Earth】 of birth, which is the concept of the Earth Mother Goddess.

This person before us should have established his spiritual foundation with the mud at the bottom of the Yellow Springs, walking the branch of the 【Netherworld Earth】 path—【Calamity Earth】; his Dao Foundation is the 【Yellow Springs Calamity Dao Foundation】."

Truly, Zhao Zhao Yinman is an encyclopedia!

Jiang Yan silently gave a thumbs-up; this was the point most newcomers got confused about.

Many civilizations' cultivation systems, including the bizarre history of Tianxia after the calamity, were extremely strange; one had to combine various materials to judge.

You think the opponent is Kui Water, but it is actually Wu Earth.

Rashly using the Five Elements to counteract them would absolutely lead to death with no place to bury one's body.

"Good insight, able to name the source of my spiritual nature, but in the face of absolute power, knowing more is meaningless."

The ghost hand condensed by Kurokawa Sosuke fell, covering Jiang Yan and Zhao Zhao Yinman with a mighty momentum, preparing to suppress them forcefully.

Then, go to the History Correction Bureau and demand an explanation, catching them off guard.

The 【Ashes of the Yellow Springs】 within the Hand of Withering contained deadly poison capable of corroding the Dao Foundation; even if repaired, the possibility of advancing to the Old Talisman realm would be gone.

Eliminating two future hidden threats for Bai Ying in advance.

Boom!

The Hand of Withering slammed down suddenly, corroding all things, the violent sound shaking everything.

The remaining glass shattered.

However, as the dust settled, Jiang Yan and Zhao Zhao Yinman were unharmed; a golden light curtain floated before them, blocking the Hand of Withering.

"This is..."

Seeing this, Kurokawa Sosuke's expression turned greatly alarmed, because this meant...

Another Law Seed had acted.

And his strength far surpassed his!

He decisively retreated, but it was already too late.

"A mere low-tier Law Seed dares to touch people from the History Correction Bureau?"

Crack crack crack!

A lazy voice rang out; brilliant Jin Guang erupted outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Accompanied by the sound of shattering glass, thousands of light needles pierced Kurokawa Sosuke's body, instantly sealing his spiritual power and binding him tightly in mid-air, unable to move.

Crack crack!

Accompanied by the sound of boots stepping on glass shards, a figure walked in against the blinding sunlight.

Getting closer...

The figure gradually became clear.

It was a mature woman with short golden hair, eating a lollipop, wearing black silk and a leather jacket, her hands covered in jewelry, her whole body sparkling.

Like a peacock displaying its feathers, dazzling and beautiful.

Seeing her face, Kurokawa Sosuke's voice turned hoarse:

"【Jingwei Bird】 Zhao Yan."

The peak Law Seed of the Hangcheng History Correction Bureau, one of the Old Talisman Seeds.

"That's right, it's me!"

Zhao Yan said with a smile: "You who cultivate Nether Ghost Qi should remember the names of us Great Sun Law cultivators, fearing us at all times."

Arrogant and domineering, shining like the sun.

Having finished speaking, she greeted Jiang Yan: "Kid, you're quite the troublemaker. Attacking a Law Seed with a Dao Foundation, even if it was while they were unprepared, succeeding is skill. Old Ba has found a treasure this time."

Jiang Yan smiled and said: "Because having a powerhouse like Sister Zhao as a safety net, I dared to try."

When mixing in the world, what matters is power, is background.

And on this land of the Tianxia Alliance, the greatest background is...

The History Correction Bureau!

Not using available resources makes one a fool!

Kurokawa Sosuke realized the situation was lost; he did not panic, his expression calm as he said: "Is this how the History Correction Bureau oppresses foreign cultivators? You say we are guilty, so where is the evidence?"

With that item present, he was not worried at all about being discovered.

Inside the Divine Sakura Building, yet unable to enter.

As long as he stubbornly denied it and the History Correction Bureau could not find evidence, sooner or later they would have to apologize to him.

Otherwise, it would be a diplomatic incident.

The History Correction Bureau headquarters has always been very strict regarding the private abuse of power.

Zhao Yan bit her lollipop lightly, glanced at Jiang Yan, and smiled playfully: "I've done what I needed to do; now it's your turn."

"No problem."

Jiang Yan smiled, silently reciting three numbers in his heart.

3...

2...

1...

Boom!

At the base of the Divine Sakura Building, vast spiritual energy erupted, vaguely accompanied by spatial fluctuations, causing Kurokawa Sosuke's smile to stop abruptly. He cried out in alarm:

"How is this possible!?"

Only he and... wait.

Kurokawa Ryuji!
