102: Chapter 101 Divine Religion

"Senior, I have returned."

Ye Xiu arrived at the ancient manor and sighed inwardly as he looked at the white-haired old man before him.

He did not know what Sikong Tianwen had experienced over these past hundred years to appear so aged despite his Saint Realm cultivation.

"It is good that you have returned, it is good."

Sikong Tianwen was in a very good mood, his old face full of smiles.

"Senior, is everything well in the Great Xia?"

"It is fine, just minor issues, and internal conflicts are not significant. However, I fear there is an anomaly in Tianfu City; you could go and ask Master Zhang."

Ye Xiu nodded.

The two chatted for a while longer.

Only then did he leave the manor.

Inner City District.

On the bustling streets, people came and went, just as it was a hundred years ago. Infrastructure like technological housing remained at the level of a century ago.

Such is the torrent of the era.

When Cultivate becomes the mainstream.

No one bothers to research external technological levels anymore.

Walking along this bustling street and watching the endless stream of people, Ye Xiu did not soar through the air like other Cultivators.

Instead, like an ordinary person, he strolled along the street.

The path of Cultivate is exceptionally difficult. Although Great Xia has a population of three billion, true high-level Cultivators are few and far between.

For an ordinary person to enter the [Transcendence Realm], while not requiring much talent, resources are indispensable.

And of those who reach the Transcendence level.

Only about half can truly enter the [Sky-Soaring Realm].

Moving up to the [Mingdao Realm].

Only one or two percent remain.

And for these one or two percent of Cultivators to enter the [Void Imperial Realm], another 99 percent must be eliminated.

In other words.

Out of ten thousand Cultivators, only one person can successfully Cultivate to the strength of the [Void Imperial Realm].

This is still under the condition of sufficient resources.

In reality, this number would only be lower.

Currently, in the entire Great Xia, the number of those who have reached the [Tongtian Realm] in cultivation definitely does not exceed ten thousand, and this is only the number accumulated over a hundred years.

Therefore.

In Great Xia, ordinary people who cannot fly still make up the majority.

If not for the massive protective umbrella of Great Xia, these ordinary people might find it extremely difficult even to survive.

"Hey, wait."

On the bustling street, a dirty little girl was running forward, a large meat bun in her mouth.

A dozen meters away.

A group of men in black were chasing the girl, their strength all at the [Mingdao Realm] level.

Logically speaking, given the strength of this group.

Catching an ordinary little girl should be an effortless task, yet these men in black were acting like ordinary people, maintaining a relatively safe distance from the little girl ahead.

"Is the public security in Yanjing this terrible?"

Ye Xiu frowned slightly.

He reached out and lifted the little girl who had run in front of him.

"Let me go..." The little girl kicked at Ye Xiu, her dirty little face full of anger.

Ye Xiu ignored the little girl.

Instead, with a slightly playful gaze, he looked at the dozen or so men in black who had surrounded him.

"Tell me, what are you doing?"

"This... is he a lunatic?"

The dozen men in black cursed inwardly. Just as they were about to make a move, a feeling of horror suddenly welled up in their hearts.

An expert!

They looked at each other.

They dared not make a rash move.

A few seconds later.

The leader of the men in black suppressed the fear in his heart and spoke nonsense: "This little girl stole our..."

Before he could finish speaking.

An invisible force suddenly descended.

A terrifying scene unfolded.

The leader's words were cut off mid-sentence, and his entire body suddenly dissolved rapidly; in just an instant, he had completely vanished.

Leaving behind no aura at all.

This scene.

Terrified the onlookers nearby, who scrambled to flee, not daring to stay in the vicinity.

As the crowd scattered.

Ye Xiu's cold voice sounded again: "Do not tell lies. I will give you three seconds. 1, 2..."

"Wait... we are people of the Divine Sect, ordered to protect our Saintess." Seeing this, the men in black dared not waste words and quickly spoke up.

"Divine Sect? Tell me in detail."

Ye Xiu ignored the struggling little girl, his cold gaze carrying a hint of curiosity.

Over these past hundred years in Great Xia.

It seems many hidden forces have emerged; this is rather curious.

"The Divine Sect worships the Demon God. It is different from Taoism and Buddhism because the Demon God truly exists..."

As the man in black recounted.

Five minutes later.

Ye Xiu shook his head slightly, revealed a hint of his aura, and already annihilated all the men in black.

This so-called Divine Sect.

Was merely a sect infiltrated by the Ten Thousand Races.

No matter the time, there are always some anti-human organizations among humans who worship evil gods and rely on slaughtering their own kind to exchange for power.

This so-called Divine Sect was one of them.

Looking at the little girl stunned in his hand.

Ye Xiu smiled: "Little girl, should I kill you, or should I kill you?"

"You... you... don't kill me."

"Hehe... don't be nervous. Tell me, as the Saintess of the Divine Sect, why did you run away?"

"They are devils, not humans. There are devils who have come into the city."

"Devils? It's fine, I am even more powerful than devils. Take me to see." Ye Xiu was somewhat dismissive; it was just a sect of an alien race.

Just annihilate them directly.

The little girl, however, shook her head repeatedly.

She seemed to have been extremely terrified; even facing Ye Xiu's cold gaze, she did not dare to go back.

"I have a method to view other people's memories, but this method might cause the person being viewed to become an idiot. Little girl, do you want to try?"

Ye Xiu did not force the little girl.

It was merely a threat.

"I... I will take you there."

The little girl was startled, looking into Ye Xiu's eyes, filled with fear.

After all, the scene just now was too shocking.

It was far more terrifying than the most powerful Revered Master in the Divine Sect.

"Little girl, what is your name? Do you have any relatives alive? Once I deal with the Divine Sect, I will send you back."

While walking.

Ye Xiu asked.

"My name is Chu Meng. I don't know if I have any relatives left; since I can remember, I have been in the Divine Sect."

"Then do you have anything special about you? Why were you chosen as the Saintess when you have no cultivation at all?"

"I don't know. After the devil ate my sister, the Sect Leader made me the Saintess." Chu Meng seemed very afraid of that devil; when saying this, her voice carried a slight tremor.

Eating people?

Ye Xiu frowned slightly.

Using the Human Race as food? These sects among the alien races are truly courting death.

The two moved very slowly.

Ye Xiu was not in a hurry.

Currently, his strength is very difficult to improve without special supreme treasures.

If he truly cannot find a supreme treasure.

He is prepared to blood sacrifice the heavens, thereby providing a massive amount of life Qi, to forcibly ignite the furnace fire within his body and temper his Physical Body Dao once again.

But for now.

It has not reached that point yet.

He would not go and slaughter a world without cause against a race that has not provoked him.
