Chapter 344: Chapter 322: True Justice within Murder

Wukong and his eight companions entered the Creation World, where they encountered an ancient tree and obtained some information about the Creation World. At the same time, eighteen people were flying over from a distance.

"It’s this old tree, the tree harbors an extremely rich Power of Creation—it’s a Qingtian Tree! If forged into a Magical Treasure using True Fire, its power could rival that of a Great Dao Divine Artifact!" a woman said, pointing at the old tree, her delicate features framed by her clear, beautiful brows, as she held a long whip, looking quite capriciously charming.

"Hmm? There are people ahead, nine Heavenly Dao Saints? Could they also be after this old tree?" Wang Meng frowned.

"Senior brother, I don’t care, I must have this Qingtian Tree during this training trip!" the capricious Yang Qi pouted.

"Who are these nine? I’ve never seen them before; I wonder which Supreme’s disciples they are," Wang Meng thought to himself, then said aloud, "Junior sister Yang Qi, rest assured, I will definitely help you secure this Qingtian Tree, and then let our master refine it properly so you can attempt to reach the Heavenly Dao Saint Realm!"

This old tree was indeed a Qingtian Tree and could be forged into a Great Dao Divine Artifact, a rare material. Despite the vastness of the Creation World, a Great Dao Divine Artifact was still hard to come by, and many Great Dao Saints were still using treasures of the Heavenly Dao Realm. It was only because this old tree was located in a desolate area that it had not been cut down already.

Wang Meng and the other eighteen people landed and stood firm, then gave a salutation, saying, "Which Supreme’s disciples are you nine friends? Could you part with this Qingtian Tree? We are willing to make a trade."

Tong Tian Sect Master said, "We belong to no sect or faction; we are all Loose Cultivators! This old tree is our friend, and it’s not for trade."

Yang Qi, feeling provoked, cursed, "You arrogant fool, truly ignorant of what’s good for you—is seeking death what you want?"

When had Tong Tian Sect Master ever been cursed like this? His anger surged like a fighting bull, and the Five Qi in his chest boiled, with the Samadhi fire burning in his throat.

Wang Meng sneered and said, "Gentlemen, a wise man submits to the times. We are under the Heavenly Dragon Supreme, and it would be unwise for mere Loose Cultivators like you to offend us. Offering to trade with you is out of respect. Otherwise, do not blame us for simply taking it by force! Hmph!"

Seeing the support of nine Great Dao Saints, Yuan Shu felt fearless, certain that the eighteen opposing Heavenly Dao Saints could be wiped out with a simple slap.

"Is that so? Then come and try!" Tong Tian Sect Master’s Sword Weapon began to tremble behind him, a sword named Piercing Earth, which had been cultivated for an unimaginable period and assisted him in mastering the Great Sword Dao Technique.

Tong Tian, Piercing Earth. The two were a perfect match. The Slaying Immortal Four Swords had been destroyed and could not be repaired.

"That person is really courting death. Senior brother Wang Meng is almost at the threshold of becoming a Great Dao Saint; it would be no problem for him to eliminate nine of us, let alone one!"

"Hehe! These Loose Cultivators really lack insight. We are disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect Master, yet they dare to be so arrogant—they’re in for a rough time."

Yang Qi arrogantly said, "You nine, step aside quickly. Don’t suffer unnecessarily! Once I acquire the Qingtian Tree, I can spare your lives. Kneel and apologize, and then you may go."

Subduing Demon Heaven said to Wukong, "Teacher, allow me to handle this bunch of fools!"

With the means of Subduing Demon Heaven, he could crush all eighteen with just a fingertip!

"You truly seek death, senior brother, let’s take action and kill them!" Yang Qi sneered.

Wang Meng made his move, producing a Divine Sword in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a river-like slash, turning into countless sword lights sweeping towards the nine, intending to kill them all in one strike! This infuriated Tong Tian Sect Master even more, for this man was using the Sword Dao and looked down on their group of nine so contemptuously—it was unforgivable.

"One sword to break Kyushu!" Tong Tian Sect Master’s Piercing Earth Sword flashed a streak of sword light that instantly shattered the river of sword lights unleashed by Wang Meng.

Wang Meng exclaimed, "What powerful technique! Junior brothers, quickly take them down!"

Tong Tian Sect Master’s face was cold as he pointed a finger like a sword towards the void, sweeping a sword light across.

"Puff puff puff!"

The Cultivators flying up were instantly halved at the waist, and the Sword Qi carried a sense of oblivion, drilling into their minds. Their Primordial Spirit Thoughts shattered and turned into powder! With one sword, he had slain all eighteen who had charged at them, leaving only Yang Qi and Wang Meng.

"A Great Dao Saint?" Wang Meng was sweating profusely and trembling with fear at this moment.

Great Dao Sages are akin to Supreme Elders within a Sect, and there are only eight of them presiding over the Heavenly Dragon Sect.

Tong Tian Sect Master bellowed, "Kneel!"

Wang Meng and Yang Qi stepped back repeatedly, raging, "We are true disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, do you dare to lay a hand on us? If you let us return, this feud will be erased at once!"

The face of Tong Tian Sect Master darkened as he said indifferently, "Do you really take me for a fool? Erase it at once? Since you refuse to kneel, then hand over your lives!"

"We’ll kneel! Kneel!"

Wang Meng and Yang Qi shouted repeatedly, immediately kneeling down, knocking their heads on the ground like pounding garlic. Under the threat of death, all dignity was worthless.

Tong Tian Sect Master said only, "Too late! You had your chance and you didn’t take it, now you beg for mercy. It’s already too late!"

Having said that, he flicked his finger, and sword lights, dense as a drizzle, swept down. In an instant, the two were minced into a meat paste, their Primordial Spirits unable to escape, meeting their demise. This Tong Tian Sect Master has always been decisive, bold, and risk-taking, even daring to stand alone against four Saints during the Deification War! Now that he had achieved the realm of a Great Dao Sage, he was even more ferocious, and he also knew that if these two men escaped, his own party would definitely not end well, with endless troubles, so it was better to kill them off cleanly.

Of course, if the two had not hesitated and simply kneeled down immediately, Tong Tian Sect Master would have probably just placed a restraint on them, making them slaves, and they might have been able to save their lives! But they missed that chance, and no one could blame Tong Tian Sect Master for that. He has always been a man who does as he pleases, with a very distinctive character.

"Fighting Sage! Although these people were arrogant, their crimes do not warrant death," the Demon Subduing Heavenly Dao said.

"You are wrong, Demon Subduing Heaven! It’s true that these people were arrogant, but they certainly deserved to die! If we don’t kill them, they will definitely go back and seek help from the experts within their Sect to regain their face. That would bring us endless troubles! And it is very likely to alert Yang Mei and Lu Ya. When someone poses a threat to oneself, then they should be killed, they deserve to die!" Tong Tian Sect Master said indifferently, casually wiping away all traces of the eighteen Heavenly Dao Saints, turning them into wisps of Pure Qi rising up.

"Lord of Spiritual Treasures is right; one should kill when necessary. When others harm oneself, one should kill! Although our Buddhist Sect’s teachings emphasize compassion, it’s not about false compassion or foolish compassion!" Wukong nodded slightly, agreeing with what Tong Tian Sect Master said, knowing the true meaning from his own experiences through fire and blood.

The four, including Demon Subduing Heaven, had only recently subdued the Buddhist Sect and did not yet fully understand the dangers of the world. Now, hearing Wukong’s explanation, they had an epiphany! The Buddha Ancestor feeding flesh to the eagle was but false compassion. Instead of feeding a beast, it’s better to preserve one’s useful body to enlighten more people and help them transcend... If someone threatens oneself, then one should assume the wrathful aspect of Vajra and slay them. To fulfill the great wish of enlightening all beings, how can one allow one’s useful body to be harmed?

Moreover, Wukong and the others abide by the principle of not offending if not offended. If they kill, it is sure to be an enemy, someone who has provoked them.

Great Dao Sages essentially represent lawlessness; even if they kill for no reason, no one would say anything because to such beings, ordinary people are but ants, unworthy of concern.

Xuan Ming, who had mastered the Great Slaughter Technique, was exceptionally clear about the way of slaughter, and as they discussed, the killing aura in his Slaughter Talisman became even purer.

The ancient tree trembled, saying, "You actually killed these people, but they are disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect! The leader of the Heavenly Dragon Sect is an Ancient Heavenly Dragon, a terrifying Semi-Supreme being with profound Mana. In the Creation World, it is a being that rages through Heaven and Earth!"

Xuan Ming sighed and said, "Semi-Supreme? If they come, they too will be killed!"

These eight simple words were uttered with immense dominance, making one shudder.

Now Xuan Ming felt his strength was enough to contend with a Semi-Supreme, and moreover, with so many experts present, even if a Semi-Supreme came, they would definitely not fare well against the united front of nine! The Power of Creation that Wukong had absorbed for one hundred and fifty thousand years was not for naught.

"Mhm, with our combined strength of nine, even if we face a Semi-Supreme, there is nothing to fear! Since entering the Creation World, the rate at which my Primordial Spirit Thoughts absorb the Power of Creation has become faster and faster, thousands to tens of thousands of times faster than in the Chaotic World! I believe it won’t be long before I can also achieve the realm of a Semi-Supreme," said Wukong slowly.

"What... you can achieve Semi-Supreme!" Yuan Shu was shocked.

"Mhm." Wukong nodded indifferently, calculating, "Perhaps, there is even a faster method! An Exotic Treasure is about to come into being, named Creation Fruit. Swallowing it will allow one to immediately rush towards the realm of Semi-Supreme."

"Creation Fruit? That’s the Origin Fruit nurtured by the Creation World itself; if a Great Dao Sage swallows it, they can assault the powerful realm of Semi-Supreme! Good heavens!" Yuan Shu could not help shouting out, "Esteemed senior, could you protect me? You have killed eighteen disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect at the realm of Heavenly Dao Saint, all true disciples of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon, not to be taken lightly. Once the Heavenly Dragon Sect finds out, they may come looking for me."

Wukong nodded and said, "No worries! Enter the Posa Greater World within my body and take root there. You, as the Cyan Heaven Tree, can generate the Power of Creation, which will be very beneficial to my world."

Wukong waved his hand and the tens-of-thousands-feet-tall ancient tree shrank crazily, falling into Wukong’s mouth and taking root in the Posa Greater World.
