1075: Chapter 1058: Deterrence on the Frontier, Comprehending the Law!
ngshan War Division.
At this mont the entire tribe was already in chaos, plunged into panic, with the city gate tightly closed, presenting a scene of endless apprehension.
“What should we do, what on earth should we do!”
Roaring voices ca out from the Great Hall at the center of the tribe; the patriarch of the ngshan War Division, ng Tang, had already gone mad.
Suddenly, he ca to his senses, pointed at the young man kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear, and roared again, “It’s all because of your greed that such a catastrophe has been brought upon us!”
The kneeling young man was the junior patriarch of the ngshan War Division and also the perpetrator of this disaster.
By now, this middle-grade War Division’s junior patriarch had already lost his regard for attention.
“Father, how was I to know the people of our tribe would do this?
It’s just a little resource; why would they go to the Gu Yuan Tribe to air grievances?”
Bang!
Before the junior patriarch of ngshan could finish his words, ng Tang grabbed a clay pot from the table and smashed it down on him.
“You still have the face to speak!
If you had given them a way to live, would they go to the Gu Yuan Tribe to air grievances?
I’ve taught you, one must always leave a way out, never do things to the extre.
But no, driven by your insatiable greed, you pocketed everything.
Although the elderly and the weak may not have the ability to fight, the rest of the tribe is watching.
Do you want to see our ngshan Tribe lose the hearts of our people?”
“Father, these tribesn are supported by our ngshan Tribe.
Over the years, how many resources have they consud?
I am rely reclaiming what is ours.
Besides, all the pri-aged n in their families have died in battle, leaving only the elderly, the weak, won, and children, all of whom must be supported by the tribe.
Shouldn’t they hand over the resources they get to the tribe?”
The junior patriarch of ngshan argued sowhat sophistically.
“Hand over to the tribe, or to your own pocket!” Listening to the junior patriarch of ngshan, ng Tang grew even more furious.
“Father, it’s not just .
With so many rewards bestowed by the Gu Yuan Tribe and the spoils obtained from the Beast Underworld, which of you and the Tribal Elders hasn’t taken a share?
Ask the elders in the hall, who would dare claim they are without guilt?”
The junior patriarch of ngshan lay prostrate on the ground, unceasingly muttering, “Besides, everything I did was done with Father’s silent consent.”
“You unfilial child!”
ng Tang was suddenly at a loss for words; he naturally had reaped benefits as the patriarch from the rewards given by the Gu Yuan Tribe and the spoils from the Beast Underworld.
He also believed that, amongst the many tribes of the Entire Border Wilderness Domain, not one was without desire.
But even if one intercepted resources, there needed to be a limit, unlike his son who had no bottom line at all.
His was an outrageous demand, pocketing everything for himself, using his power to leave no room for the people to survive, the most infuriating part being that in order to prevent the people from complaining, he sent warriors to intercept and kill them, practically wreaking havoc within his own tribe.
If there was to be killing, at least make a clean job of it, yet there were survivors that slipped through the net!
Ever since so tribesn had fled the tribe to Gu Yuan, ng Tang knew that there would be serious trouble!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The rumbling sound above the ngshan Tribe awakened ng Tang, who was still scolding his son, and naturally, the entire ngshan Tribe woke up as well.
The Supre Overlord of the Border Wasteland Region had arrived!
This signified that the matters of the ngshan Tribe had caught the attention of the Gu Yuan Tribe.
The imnse Void Battleship was thus suspended above the central land of the ngshan Tribe.
ng Tang no longer cared about scolding his son and dashed out of the Great Hall in a panic, trembling as he knelt on the ground and called out to the sky.
“ng Tang pays respects to the War Master from the Supre State.”
Above the warship, the vice-president of the War Master Hall, Mu Wu Ya, and an elder from the Enforcent Hall appeared.
“ng Patriarch, you ought to know the purpose of our visit today!”
“I know, I know.”
ng Tang’s body shivered; upon seeing the warship descend, he knew that sothing terrible was going to happen.
“To the War Master from the Supre State, it is my fault for failing to properly teach my son, leading him to commit the sin of embezzling the compensations for the fallen warriors.
Even afterwards, he did not repent and attacked our own tribesn, disregarding the Imperial Command of the Lord.
His wrongdoings are indeed profound.”
“Hmph!”
The next mont, with a cold snort, ng Tang felt his entire body immobilized and even levitating, as an overwhelmingly powerful will penetrated his mind.
It’s over!
All his secrets were laid bare without any reserve!
Boom!
As ng Tang’s body once again fell to the ground, Mu Wu Ya’s voice rang out, but this ti he was speaking to the elder from the Enforcent Hall.
“For embezzling the compensation for the fallen War Soldiers, hoarding the spoils gained in the Beast Underworld belonging to the War Soldiers, disregarding the Imperial Command from the Lord, the entire high-ranking of the ngshan Tribe colluded in corruption, they must be executed!”
Upon hearing this, the elder from the Enforcent Hall nodded and then bellowed, with his voice spreading throughout the entire ngshan Tribe.
“The high-ranking of the ngshan War Division have shown no respect for the Imperial Command, embezzled the pensions of fallen warriors, and forcibly plundered the spoils of War Soldiers.
Their cris warrant death!”
“The Gu Yuan Clan has decreed that the chiefs and elders of the ngshan War Division bear the responsibility for these cris.
All embezzlers shall be executed on the spot, and their affiliates and blood relatives banished to the Great Wasteland.
No tribe in the Border Wasteland Region shall take them in; they are to survive or perish on their own.
The tribespeople of the ngshan War Division may form a new tribe or rge with another.
”
“The ngshan War Division no longer exists in the Border Wasteland!”
What!
The warriors of the ngshan War Division were in an uproar.
This order was beyond their imagination; the Gu Yuan Clan intended to eradicate the entire leadership in one fell swoop, banishing anyone associated with the leadership to the Great Wasteland, essentially leaving them to live or die on their own.
Following this, the entire ngshan War Division was effectively disbanded, which was virtually no different from being struck off the register.
“No!”
ng Tang roared loudly, his eyes filled with terror.
A single imperial decree had led to the downfall of his ngshan War Division.
“Execute the entire high-ranking of the ngshan War Division!”
As Mu Wu Ya’s furious shout echoed, more than a dozen Towering Realm Martial Artists appeared above the Void Battleship and descended into the ngshan tribe.
How could a middle-ranked Battle Division withstand the Gu Yuan Tribe Warriors?
In just a quarter of an hour, the area in front of the central Great Hall of the ngshan War Division had turned into a Blood River.
Hundreds of warriors were beheaded.
Of course, there was resistance, but the strongest in the tribe, ng Tang, who was only at the third level of the Towering Realm, had his heart ridians shattered by a palm strike from Mu Wu Ya.
The matter of the ngshan tribe spread across the Entire Border Wilderness Domain within days.
The whole tribe was removed from the domain; all warriors involved in the embezzlent had their heads chopped off, and over a thousand relatives were banished into the Great Wasteland, while several hundred thousand tribespeople were absorbed by the nearby Human War Tribes.
The thundering tactics of the Gu Yuan Clan shocked all the tribes in the Entire Border Wilderness Domain.
Unsavoury characters within so tribes began to restrain themselves to avoid the fate of the ngshan War Division.
…
Xiao Chen, deep within the Mountain River Seal, of course, was unaware of what was happening in the Border Wasteland Region.
Having found the shore from the Sea of Suffering and returned to the real world, he had fully enlightened himself and passed the Divine Soul Tribulation, thus completely purifying the turbidity that existed in his soul since birth.
The instant his spirit re-integrated with his body, his perception of heaven and earth unfolded like a veil had been lifted.
This wasn’t because his soul power had increased, but his perception of the outside world had beco more penetrating, and even his thoughts had beco clearer.
Hum!
A gentle and warm light radiated from Xiao Chen’s entire body—an astonishing phenonon.
The pure light of soul power manifested directly in the real world.
This had been unimaginable before; without the previous turbidity, the soul’s connection with the whole body beca even more integrated!
Whoosh!
In an instant, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and they shone brightly, with a hint of profound wisdom that seed to carry the depth and suffering of ages.
His state of mind was as tranquil as water—such insight was usually found only in elders who had passed countless years and endured innurable hardships.
Having overco the Divine Soul Tribulation, it was finally the rit of the Yanhun Purification Fla, which had remained calm and steady as it hovered over his Soul Sea.
Opposite the Yanhun Purification Fla, there coiled a faint shadow with a dragon-headed and spiral body, which was the Soul Body of the Jiao Tu, returning to reality with Xiao Chen from the Sea of Suffering.
However, the Jiao Tu was now left with only a weakened Soul Body, which was not easy to nurture back to strength.
Crossing the Divine Soul Tribulation had brought unexpected fate, but the cultivation technique for soul power that Xiao Chen sought was still fraught with difficulties.
The Jiao Tu was a genuine descendant of a Divine Beast, so from birth, its spirit imprinted with the essence of spiritual beings, born with a divine soul.
Of course, the Jiao Tu’s inherited mories contained thods to strengthen the spirit, but they were not suitable for Xiao Chen at the mont.
One reason was the limitation of strength, and another was that Xiao Chen was not yet ready to attempt them.
After passing through the tribulation of the Soul Beyond, Xiao Chen was now among the ranks of the top demi-kings.
The place where Xiao Chen had been ditating also benefited from the adjustnts of Luli’s ti-space.
A year had passed for him in Luli’s arranged ti-space as he entered the Sea of Suffering.
“Luli.”
Upon Xiao Chen’s summoning, Luli’s lovely figure appeared, her small body hopping and bouncing with her hands behind her back in front of Xiao Chen.
“Master, the qi around you has changed,” Luli said cutely.
“It’s rounder, like…
a precious gem, pure and containing understanding.”
At her words, Xiao Chen chuckled lightly, playfully flicking Luli’s tiny head and softly speaking, “Bring all the Cultivation Technique Collection the Gu Yuan Clan has gathered.
I have use for them.”
Luli frowned slightly at Xiao Chen’s teasing hand, but with a wave of her little hands, a pile of Beast Skin scrolls, stone tablets, jade slips, and wooden slips appeared before Xiao Chen—thousands of them.
These were techniques collected by the Gu Yuan Clan over the years.
Recently, they had also confiscated a large number of Martial Arts practices from dozens of conquered Royal Beast Race aristocratic families.
While their practices weren’t cultivated by the Human Race, the paths of Martial Arts are interlinked, still offering valuable insights.
Xiao Chen asked for all the Martial Arts Classics because he had an epiphany after surviving the Divine Soul Tribulation.
All he lacked now was the comprehension of the Mysteries leading to the Dao, a difficult transition.
Yet, his epiphany reminded him that while the operation of the Great Dao seed imnsely complex, the Great Dao itself was suprely simple.
Perhaps he could gain insights from another angle.
For example, by studying the Martial Arts Classics.
Many strong Ones of the Desolate Wilds had created these classics based on their own insights, which contained various Daos.
It was possible that Xiao Chen could use these books to decipher the Mysteries.
