Chapter 424: Shocking the World

Meng Yifan returned to Earth, and his location was still the island nation of Dongying. As soon as he appeared, he felt endless Faith Wish Power enveloping him; from these threads of faith, he sensed billions of his countrymen praying and blessing him.

"Such dense Faith Wish Power." Meng Yifan was filled with gratitude. It was precisely because Yang Yijian had used the Imperial Jade Seal to gather the Faith Wish Power of billions of commoners in Shenzhou that he had not been directly slain by Yamata no Orochi.

"If I had so many believers continuously providing me with Faith Wish Power, then my Nine Systems World could be quickly repaired, and it could also provide a massive amount of energy to use the Spirit Root Secret Technique to refine an army of Immortal Cultivators."

Meng Yifan's Nine Systems World was currently very empty; apart from some Five Elements creatures created by He Dongliu back in the day, the land was extremely desolate.

From He Dongliu's memories, he learned that He Dongliu had also once relocated some humans to live in his Five Elements World.

However, He Dongliu's Five Elements World was not complete compared to the great world outside; energy was constantly dissipating, and humans could not normally multiply and thrive within the Five Elements World, requiring He Dongliu's help to survive.

After He Dongliu fell, the Five Elements World had no one to manage it and gradually declined. Furthermore, those Five Elements creatures treated humans as food and hunted them wantonly, so it was not long before the humans in the Five Elements World perished.

Although Meng Yifan's world was only in its embryonic form, because he practiced Nine-System Cultivation, he could carve out an area within the world to allow the nine systems to balance and accommodate each other, comparable to the great world outside.

Within that area, ordinary humans could also multiply normally, generation after generation.

Meng Yifan prepared to relocate some humans to live in his own world to provide him with a continuous supply of Faith Wish Power.

According to Meng Yifan's current strength, that area where the nine systems merged could accommodate roughly three hundred thousand people to survive.

Meng Yifan stopped thinking about it, because after he returned to Earth, Yamata no Orochi had already drawn upon the Life Force of the Dongying commoners, dancing its eight heads and releasing eight different types of demonic arts to surround and kill him.

These eight demonic art attacks were each comparable to a full-force strike from a Sixth Grade Lower Tier cultivator, and the destructive power of each was comparable to the core of a high-yield nuclear bomb explosion; if it were the original Meng Yifan, dealing with them would be very troublesome.

But now, Meng Yifan was already a Sixth Grade High cultivator, his strength having surged; although these attacks were also terrifying, he was already able to block them easily.

Meng Yifan was seen holding a ball with both hands, surrounded by Yin-Yang Qi; there was Yang within Yin, and Yin within Yang. The materialized Yin-Yang Millstone formed a massive Taiji Ball, enveloping the one-hundred-meter area around Meng Yifan.

After the attacks launched by Yamata no Orochi approached Meng Yifan's vicinity, they were all disrupted by the Yin-Yang Qi, changing their directions and circling around the Taiji Ball.

"This is impossible?" Yamata no Orochi could not believe it, and Kamo no Tadayuki was also dumbfounded. They felt that those eight streams of energy lost control after approaching Meng Yifan; although they tried their best, they could not make those energies attack Meng Yifan.

"Sixth Grade World Master Realm, and not just having entered the Sixth Grade Lower Tier—how could Meng Yifan's strength suddenly increase so much?"

Kamo no Tadayuki was puzzled. Just a moment ago, Meng Yifan was still being beaten and fleeing in a sorry state; how had he become so powerful now that he had actually neutralized eight attacks comparable to those of a Sixth Grade Lower Tier cultivator? How did he do it? The contrast between before and after was just too great.

At this very moment, everyone watching this scene via satellite could not believe it.

In the land of Shenzhou, Yang Yijian and Chu Yunlong had originally thought that with the help of the country's commoners, it would be good enough if Meng Yifan could luckily escape back. How could the scene suddenly reverse now? Meng Yifan was actually able to receive Yamata no Orochi's attacks, and he even appeared to have energy to spare.

The heads of several other major military powers on Earth also stared unblinkingly at that massive Taiji Ball. Various instruments analyzed the energy fluctuations of the Taiji Ball and discovered that this Taiji Ball was even more terrifying than the anti-matter weapons still in development.

This result left the heads of several major powers stunned. The anti-matter weapons that surpassed hydrogen bombs had not yet been developed, yet a human from Shenzhou had casually unleashed an attack even more terrifying than an anti-matter weapon. What was going on? Could it be that our path of technological development was wrong? Should everyone go and learn the Immortal Art of Shenzhou?

"Oh my god, notify all carrier strike groups to immediately withdraw from the Shenzhou sphere of influence. If you encounter the Shenzhou fleet, take the initiative to yield; you are absolutely forbidden from provoking them."

"Doesn't Shenzhou claim that Diaoyu Island is theirs? No problem, I announce that Diaoyu Island has been Shenzhou's since ancient times; no one is allowed to fight them for it."

"Boss, how should we handle the South China Sea dispute?"

"Oh, shit! There is no dispute in the South China Sea; that is all Shenzhou's territorial waters. There is no damn dispute, you idiot with dog shit in your head." This black leader slammed the table and roared in anger.

Similar scenes played out all over the globe. Every country that had territorial disputes with Shenzhou retreated three steps, no longer obsessing over those disputed territories.

All major military powers understood that before they possessed the strength to restrain Meng Yifan, the rise of Shenzhou was already unstoppable.

Meng Yifan held the ball with both hands and then pushed it forward violently. The high-speed rotating Taiji Ball, carrying the eight attacks launched by Yamata no Orochi, rushed toward Yamata no Orochi as fast as lightning, like a meteor crashing into Earth.

It was too fast; Yamata no Orochi could not dodge at all and could only curl its body into a ball, surging all the energy in its body to resist the Taiji Ball's attack.

The Taiji Ball approached Yamata no Orochi's vicinity and then exploded violently; the Yin-Yang Qi combined with the eight attacks previously launched by Yamata no Orochi all detonated.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The violent sounds of explosions rang out one after another, as if ten high-yield hydrogen bombs had exploded simultaneously.

The aftermath of the explosion caused the entire Dongying to shake, as if a magnitude-12 earthquake had occurred. Houses collapsed, volcanoes erupted, and the entire Dongying was like the end of the world; there was no longer a single pure land left.

When the explosions ceased, Yamata no Orochi's massive body had been blasted full of holes. Seven of its eight heads were shattered, and of the remaining head, one eye was blinded; the only remaining eye was filled with terror and unease.

"Haha, not dead yet? You really are thick-skinned." Meng Yifan gave a mocking laugh, his body flickered, and he appeared in front of Yamata no Orochi. He extended a finger and flicked it lightly, and Yamata no Orochi's final head was also blasted apart.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for slaying the Fifth Grade Peak Yamata no Orochi, obtaining 【 】 Experience Value." The prompt sound of the Game Panel rang out once again.

"Master, I have avenged you." Meng Yifan murmured, "But it is not enough. The deep blood feud of the martyrs has not yet been avenged."

Meng Yifan looked toward the direction of Yasukuni Shrine. Beneath the shrine was a Ghost Domain where a group of old ghosts lived. Wiping them out would not only avenge the martyrs but also allow him to obtain a massive amount of Experience Value; why not do it?
