Chapter 1006: Seven Three Five Reputation

Gathering spiritual energy was secondary, the main thing was that with the barrier of the Nine States, the one-tenth of Chaos primordial energy that scattered into the void would not dissipate outward but would remain within the Nine States.

Keeping that one-tenth of Chaos primordial energy within the Nine States was Jiang Chen’s main objective.

This spiritual energy was like water, always flowing to lower areas; without a formation to seal it off, the spiritual energy would flow from areas of abundance to those where it was sparse.

This is what the Dao De Jing says, "The way of Heaven is to take from the surplus and supplement the insufficient."

"Damn it, it’s the Nine States barrier!"

"The Nine States barrier disappeared for tens of thousands of years, why has it suddenly reappeared now?"

Outside the Nine States, some mysterious experts noticed the changes here and immediately set off, their bodies entering the void, trying to stealthily infiltrate the Nine States to plunder the newly born fortunes of this place.

However, just as they approached the Nine States and before they could enter, they saw a brilliant burst of cleansing light outside the Nine States, carrying infinite mighty force, forcefully pushing them out.

At this moment, those who could sense the changes in the Nine States were all experts among experts, either ancient Daluo or powerful beings like the Innate Dao Monarchs, so the moment they saw the cleansing light, they recognized what it was.

It was the long-lost barrier of the Nine States of the Human Race.

"It is the Human King who has reactivated the Nine States barrier, damn it, he wants to monopolize the creation."

"Monopolizing creation is blocking our paths to Dao, a grievance that will not rest until death!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, let us join forces to break this Nine States barrier. Now it is no longer the Ancient Times, the glory of the Human Race has passed, how much power could this Nine States barrier still have?"

Someone shouted out loud, wanting to join forces with others to break the Nine States barrier.

Unfortunately, he shouted for a long time, but no one responded. Even though his voice was loud, he did not make a move.

Clearly, it was all talk.

Those who had cultivated to their level were no fools, and many were from Ancient Times who had witnessed the power of the Nine States barrier firsthand and knew its horrors.

It was not a force they could shake, and rashly making a move would likely lead to being suppressed by the Nine Tripods.

Everyone knew the terror of the Nine States barrier and also knew that countless years had passed; now that the Nine States barrier had reappeared, its power was certainly not as great as before.

However, the barrier of the Nine States was too terrifying in the past. Even if only one percent of its power remained, it was not something they could contend with now.

Therefore, they wanted to find someone to test just how much power the Nine States barrier still had. If it didn’t have much left, then these people swarming together might be able to break the barrier.

On the other hand, if the power of the Nine States barrier was too strong to be dealt with even jointly, then they would have to consider long-term strategies.

With this thought, many powerhouses started to make noise, hoping to draw out a few rash young people to test the power of the Nine States barrier.

Unfortunately, no one was a fool. Everyone held the same purpose; who would be willing to take the lead and sacrifice themselves for others?

Thus, outside the Nine States barrier, a very strange scene appeared. A group of people shouted about breaking the Nine States barrier, but after a long time of shouting, no one made a move.

Boom!

Just as everyone was shouting, within the Nine States barrier, another change occurred—a strong fluctuation erupted, forcefully blasting the foreign experts hidden within the Nanbuzhan Continent out.

This was the second function of the Nine States barrier, repelling enemies from outside. Once the Nine States barrier was raised, any expert not recognized by the Fate of the Human Race would be forcefully expelled from the Nanbuzhan Continent.

The Nine States might be vast, but they could not accommodate outsiders.

When expelled, if one silently endured it, it would be over; but if one dared to resist, they would meet with the ruthless suppression of the Nine Tripods.

"What is this thing, daring to ruin my grand plan?"

Among the experts expelled from the Nine States by the barrier, there was a figure enveloped in demonic energy who couldn’t help but curse aloud.

This was a Demon Sect expert hidden in the Nanbuzhan Continent, preparing to take advantage of the dynasty’s changes and the people’s suffering to gather the Sha Qi between Heaven and Earth for cultivation.

However, he had barely infiltrated the Nanbuzhan Continent and had not even waited for the dynasty to change before he was expelled by the Nine States barrier.

What a mess, he had done nothing and was already being driven out. How could the Demonic Way expert not be angry?

Immediately, without caring what force was expelling him, he fiercely retaliated.

It’s a pity that this expert of the Demonic Way was young, a rising star in the Demon Sect, and unaware of many secrets. Thus, facing the expulsion by the Nine States barrier, he dared to resist.

Unlike those old-timers who, upon sensing that the force expelling them was the Nine States barrier, immediately kept silent and obediently let themselves be expelled without any resistance.

Only the young, ignorant of everything, dared to resist, a typical example of the fearless born from ignorance.

Boom!

The Demonic Way expert’s body surged with chilling demonic energy, rolling waves of Sha Qi sweeping around, displaying the unruly and savage style of a Demon Sect disciple to the fullest.

Only it was a pity, for all his special effects, under the power of the Nine Tripods, he was still as fragile as thin paper, easily torn apart.

In the void, the phantom of a giant tripod flashed by. Immediately afterward, the demonic energy on the body of the Demonic Way expert was all suppressed back, and he himself was swept up by a cleansing light and disappeared deep into the earth.

King Yu led a life without killing, and the Nine Tripods inherited his will, facing enemies with suppression but not killings. Therefore, even though King Yu had fallen, the Nine Tripods still sealed many powerful beings within.
