Zhang Kezhi's words shocked everyone in the palace.
Is it easy to capture the fleeing Yumen?
No, this is not simple at all. Even after months of killing by the Azure Realm Expeditionary Force, the number of remaining feathered people in the Pankong Realm is still billions or even more.
And today's feathered people are like frightened birds. Any feathered person will not stay in the same place for more than three days. At the slightest sign of trouble, he will immediately flee thousands of miles away.
Coupled with the special geographical structure of the Pankong Realm, the feathered people at this time are like a pack of hyenas surrounding the giant beasts. They will not confront the Azure Realm expeditionary force head-on.
Like a rising tide, you advance and I retreat, you retreat and I advance, take a bite when you see the opportunity and leave.
What worries the Blue Realm Expeditionary Force now is not how to fight the Feathered Men, but how to find them.
Even many Dao Lords have no good countermeasures to deal with the situation in front of them. At this moment, I heard Zhang Ke downplaying that there is a way, so naturally I can't help but be surprised.
Everyone in the hall turned their eyes to Zhang Ke, and Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Taoist masters, also held their breaths and looked at Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke glanced downwards and said calmly:
“If the skin is gone, how can the hair be attached?
The remaining feathered people in Pankong Realm only rely on the special terrain of this world and their own talents to deal with this world.
If that's the case, then we might as well dig deep into the fire and tear off the skin that these feathered men are attached to."
'Tear off the skin?'
A hint of inspiration appeared in the minds of some people in the hall, but they were unable to gather their thoughts into one thought.
Just as everyone was pondering the meaning of Zhang Ke's words, someone suddenly heard someone shouting:
"Ruyi is in charge, you...you...don't you want to destroy this world?"
After hearing this, Daojun Broken Down, who was also thinking about Zhang Ke's words, his heart beat violently, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Zhang Ke. He didn't even have time to care about who these words came from.
At this moment, he just wanted to get an answer from Zhang Ke, an answer that made him feel depressed instantly.
Zhang Keduan sat on the chair, gently rubbing his forehead with his left hand, and word after word that made everyone tremble came out of his mouth calmly.
"Why not?"
‘Boom – boom –’
Just four words, but it sounded like a thunder in everyone's ears.
Nearly a thousand people stood up almost at the same moment, and fierce and rapid words suddenly sounded in the hall.
"Absolutely not!"
"Never do this!"
"No, absolutely not!"
"..."
At this moment, everyone in the hall forgot about the threat posed by Zhang Ke, and they all spoke to stop him, even losing respect in their words.
After a brief period of confusion, the Taoist Lord of Destruction keenly grasped the opportunity and shouted sternly:
"There are countless creatures in Pankong Realm. Once the realm is broken, billions of creatures will surely die. How can this realm bear such a huge cause and effect?
Ruyi is in charge, how dare you be so arrogant..."
"Hmm~~~???"
Before the Dao Lord of Destruction could finish speaking, Zhang Ke snorted heavily.
In an instant, pressure as if the world was overturned radiated from Zhang Ke and covered everyone in the hall.
The nearly a thousand people in the hall were stunned and fell silent for a moment.
The Dao Lord of Destruction used to be considered the number one master in the azure world, but now, under Zhang Ke's endless pressure, he still couldn't help but shut his mouth.
Although he noticed the cowardice in his heart in the next second and felt greatly ashamed and angry about it, he just opened his mouth and was unable to continue the unfinished words.
'What are you afraid of?'
At this moment, even Dao Jun of Destruction himself could not understand where the fear in his heart came from.
Is it death?
The Dao Lord of Destruction asked a rhetorical question in his heart, but then he denied this thought on his own.
As a practitioner, Taoist Lord Broken Destruction has experienced countless crises in his life. Facing death is commonplace. He has long looked down on life and death.
But since he is not even afraid of death, why would he succumb to the will of Taoist Ruyi?
The Taoist Master was confused and fell into self-denial.
Affected by his mind and will, the golden halo behind Dao Jun's head manifested itself, and its movement showed a scattered and disorderly state.
Seeing this scene in front of them, everyone in the hall suddenly had an idea in their minds.
'Master Ruyi Dao, the situation has come true!'
Over the past hundreds of years, although Zhang Ke's prestige in the hearts of countless practitioners has grown day by day, many people still regard Daojun of Destruction as the strongest being in the practice world.
Only at this moment, when Zhang Ke made Dao Jun of Destruction dare not speak out with just a 'hum', did everyone truly realize the power of Dao Jun Ruyi.
Zhang Ke sat upright, his eyes slowly swept over the people in the hall below, and the Tao Lord's pressure, as heavy as a mountain, enveloped them.
Nearly a thousand practitioners from various sects stood like javelins, looking at Zhang Ke quietly.
After Zhang Ke looked around, he asked in a serious voice:
"You don't agree to destroy the Pankong Realm?"
Sounds like jade chimes echoed in the hall, but no one among the nearly a thousand people in the hall spoke. They were protesting against Zhang Ke with their actions.
"Alas~~"
Zhang Ke sighed.
"You all only know that the Realm of Destruction involves cause and effect, and you don't want to walk in it yourself. But have you ever thought about it, I..."
Zhang Ke pointed at himself with his backhand and continued:
"As the one who issued the order to break the boundary, what huge consequences will I bear?"
Hearing this, the hearts of everyone in the palace were agitated.
Yes, both the 'Boundary Fusion Plan' and the 'Boundary Breaking Operation' were carried out under the leadership of Zhang Ke.
In the past few decades, countless living beings have perished in nearly a thousand realms. When it comes to the entanglement of cause and effect, there is no one in the world who can compare with Ruyi Daojun.
‘Qionghua Sect’ Taoist Lord Xuanzhen couldn’t help but said:
"The Pankong Realm is no different from ordinary secret realms and small worlds. This is the Zhongqian World where the Dao Lord exists. If we just talk about the quality of the realm, this realm is at the same level as the Azure Realm.
Once the realm is destroyed, the cause and effect involved will be so great that no one can bear it.
Ruyi Zhangtai, since you understand the importance of this, why do you still say such boundary-breaking words?"
Taojun Xuanzhen's words also caused doubts in the hearts of everyone present.
Zhang Ke smiled calmly.
“If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!
Since the ‘Integration Project’ is from my own hands, I will not refuse the responsibilities that I should bear.
If there is any karma, I will take it.
Haha, I just want to see if this karma can block my sword."
The scornfulness revealed in Zhang Ke's calm words made everyone present feel heartbroken.
Some people were silent for a moment, then slowly bent down and took their seats. Everyone clearly understood what this meant.
But after all, there are only a few people sitting down, and more than 70% of the practitioners are still standing quietly.
Zhang Ke continued:
"Actually, breaking boundaries and destroying domains is nothing.
As early as hundreds of years ago, didn't this world also pull secret realms and small and medium-sized worlds into this world from the void through the 'Star Orbit Traction Sequence Array'?
I remember that many realms were destroyed by this realm in the past. Why were you able to accept it back then, but at this critical moment when realms are promoted, you are wavering?"
After hearing these words, Daojun Baojie couldn't help it anymore.
The sect's promotion hundreds of years ago and the 'Star Orbit Traction Sequence Array' were all completed under his auspices. Regarding this matter, no one present could have a more say than him.
"Ahem!"
The Taoist Lord of Destruction coughed twice, stared at Zhang Ke and said:
"How can these two things be discussed at the same time if Ruyi is in charge of the stage?
In the past, before the Japanese world merged those realms, it would first move the creatures within its realms to its own realm, and then integrate the realms with its own realm.
Moreover, most of the realms that have been integrated into this world are just secret realms, and there are very few even Small Thousand Worlds, let alone the Middle Thousand Worlds at the same level as this realm."
The Taoist Lord of Destruction has now regarded Zhang Ke as a 'inner demon'. In order to weaken Zhang Ke's influence in his heart, he will spare no effort to refute all Zhang Ke's arguments.
Only in this way can he kill the "inner demon" and return his state of mind to normal. Otherwise, he may live in the shadow of Ruyi Taoist Lord forever in this life.
Zhang Ke smiled ‘haha’ and said sarcastically:
"In my opinion, there is no difference between the two.
In the past, did the Japanese world really move the creatures from other realms that had been integrated into this world?
I don’t think so!
The creatures in one realm can be described as infinite, and this realm is at best just a little bit of it.
Heaven, earth, people, gods and ghosts, win over scales, feathers and kun!
Hehe, how many creatures died after the destruction of those realms?"
The Dao Lord of Destruction was shocked and retorted:
"How can a creature without intelligence like an insect be considered a living being?"
How can there be only insects without intelligence? A realm is an ecological cycle.
If a realm is regarded as an independent life form, when you kill this life form, countless creatures will naturally perish within it.
The words of Mr. Dao Destruction were just sophistry. Zhang Ke was no longer entangled with him. He looked at the crowd below and said:
"Although Pankong Realm is a middle-thousand world, the laws of this realm are incomplete, yin and yang are out of balance, and three of the five elements are missing. Even if this realm is not destroyed, it will naturally collapse in the future.
You must have already seen this from the space cracks that are constantly emerging throughout the realm.
At the same time, it is precisely because the laws of this world are not perfect that this world can only bear the existence of thirty-six Dao Lords.
Otherwise, I am afraid that what this world will face this time is the same number of Yu Ren Dao Lords."
Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Taoist masters, looked at each other and saw a trace of sadness in each other's eyes.
Pankong Realm has been established for countless years, but the number of Dao Lords has never exceeded a hundred.
Xiaopeng saw from the cliff carvings that there were still ninety-nine Taoist kings in this world.
However, as the fetal membranes of heaven and earth were damaged, the vitality of heaven and earth dispersed. In the past thousand years, only Zhaoxia achieved the position of Taoist Lord.
The Yu Ren Tao Lords of Pankong Realm have also discussed this matter countless times, but due to their limited knowledge and vision, they still do not understand where the problem is.
However, the mysterious induction also made Yuren Taojun make some guesses. Therefore, in the past, whenever a Taoist achieved success, one out of every two people would be expelled from the Pankong Realm.
Even when there are too many feathered people in the Yuanshen realm, they will be driven away in large numbers.
Only in this way can more high-level practitioners be born in Pankong Realm.
Once again, 30% of the practitioners were seated in the hall, and the remaining 40% were still standing. Apparently they were not persuaded by Zhang Ke's words.
Sixty percent of the people agreed that Zhang Ke could forcefully promote the boundary-breaking issue, but he did not want to leave a domineering feeling in the hearts of others.
Well, although this has been recognized by everyone.
In fact, what Zhang Ke values most in his heart is the last few people who still insist on their opinions.
Not everyone has the courage to stand in front of him, but Dao Lord Destruction and Dao Lord Tianhua have both sat down!
Zhang Ke looked at the remaining 400 people standing, and then said:
"The laws of water and earth in the realm of sky and sky are very powerful and perfect. If these two laws can be integrated into this realm, I believe it will be of great benefit to the improvement of the basic laws of the five elements in this realm.
What's more..."
Zhang Ke looked at the people in the hall and said:
"Besides, I am not trying to kill all the creatures in this world. On the contrary, I believe that destroying this world is a kind of salvation for the creatures in this world."
Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Dao Lords, couldn't help but widen their eyes. They wanted to see how the executioner who said, "Everyone taller than a wheel will be killed" would round out his words.
Just listen to Zhang Ke continue:
"The yin and yang in this world are out of balance and the five elements are missing. According to my calculations, in another 800 to 1,500 years, the Pankong Realm will definitely collapse.
Although the creatures in this world are good at flying, once the realm is destroyed and the membranes of heaven and earth are broken, the creatures in this world will be exposed in the void without any cover.
You all must also know how dangerous it is in the void. If nothing else is mentioned, countless living beings in this world can be wiped out just by breathing and surviving.
In addition, the power of collapse when the realm is destroyed, the terrifying radiation rays that are everywhere in the void, the cracks in the space and the powerful star beasts in the void will all become nightmares for countless creatures in this world.
If we destroy this world at this time, firstly, we can integrate the heavenly laws of this world into the blue world, secondly, we can save countless living beings who will die in thousands of years, and thirdly, we can obtain some precious treasures after breaking the world.
What worries do you have about achieving three birds with one stone?"
Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Taoist masters, looked at Zhang Ke dumbfounded.
There are still such shameless people in the world.
If it hadn't been attacked by the Azure Realm, which seriously damaged the membrane of the sky and the earth in the Pankong Realm, how could there have been so many spatial cracks between the heaven and the earth.
If there weren't too many Dao Lords fighting in this world, causing the laws of heaven to be out of order, how could the imbalance of the laws of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements manifest themselves so seriously.
If it weren't for the mountains falling, the earth's veins breaking apart, and the tides surging, how could this world fall apart within a thousand years?
But no matter how angry they were, Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Taoist masters, felt desolate in their hearts.
Pankong Realm is really going to end this time!
The reason is not in Zhang Ke's previous explanations, but in the last sentence he said.
'After breaking through the boundary, you will obtain some precious treasures!'
All Zhang Ke's previous words were just a piece of cloth to cover up the shame of many practitioners of the sect, causing them to self-hypnotize themselves, alleviate the guilt in their hearts, and thus stand on the high ground of morality.
In the end, the only thing that will really make others agree with Zhang Ke's opinion is 'interest'.
When Zhang Kedao revealed that treasures would be born after the world was broken, the destruction of Pankong World was already doomed.
As the remaining people slowly took their seats, there was no one who stood out in the hall, which also indicated that Zhang Ke had once again integrated the thoughts of practitioners in the Azure Realm.
"For the countless creatures in the Pankong Realm, we must break the realm without delay!"
"agree!"
"Agree!"
Xiaopeng and Dongqing, the two feathered Taoist masters, went dark, and their vision gradually became blurred.
At this moment, the two of them suddenly regretted their surrender.
Maybe...it was a good thing that he died in public a few days ago.
‘Alas~~~!!!’
A sigh full of regret sounded quietly in the hall, but this sound was not noticed at all by the other practitioners of the Azure Realm who were happily discussing how to obtain the treasure.
