172: Chapter 172 Schemes

Following Zhao Yi's extermination of thousands of the Mahayana Spirit Clan, an eye suddenly appeared in the sky, covering the entirety of Hezhou Prefecture, staring fixedly at Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi raised his middle finger.

"Fuck your mother!"

"The Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm couldn't kill me, and now, with just an eye of the heavenly dao, are you trying to defy the heavens?"

"Come, come, come! Just go ahead and make your move. If I strike back even once, you can be my father."

Facing Zhao Yi's provocation, the pupil of the eye of the heavenly dao instantly enlarged, sealing off the entire Hezhou Prefecture.

"Tch!"

Zhao Yi waved his hand, having no desire to pay attention to the eye of the heavenly dao.

"Come, come."

"Everyone, take a look!"

"This is the dao-shattering golden flame; it can cook this Myriad Spirit Meat in an instant."

"Strange to say, where did Mou Wuwang get such a magical thing?"

The Myriad Spirit Meat was the flesh and blood of the thousands of Mahayana Spirit Clan members that Zhao Yi had reduced using the Spirit Extraction and Origin Returning Technique; it was the essence of those thousands of Mahayana Spirit Clan members.

Zhang Shoucheng and Li Shouguang looked at the eye of the heavenly dao in the sky, their legs trembling slightly, but seeing Wu Chuan and Gao Ling staring unmoving at the meat in the pot, they suppressed the urge to flee and forced themselves to stay put.

"Alright."

"It's cooked!"

Zhao Yi casually formed a lamp, placed the dao-shattering golden flame onto it, and threw it into Fuyu Palace. Such a good thing could not be wasted.

"Come, come, eat the meat!"

"Don't be polite."

Looking at the meat in the pot, then at the four of them—Wu Chuan and the others—Zhao Yi frowned.

"With your strength, you won't be able to finish this piece of meat."

Hearing Zhao Yi say this, Wu Chuan was unhappy.

"Master, who are you looking down on?"

"With just this little bit of meat, I could eat half of it myself."

After speaking, Wu Chuan didn't stand on ceremony. He pulled a knife from who knows where and, with a few quick slashes, divided the meat into four portions. His petty thoughts were clear for all to see.

"Hehe!"

"I won't be polite then."

Fortunately, he still knew his manners. Before eating the meat, he bowed to Zhao Yi.

"Many thanks, Revered Master, for bestowing this meat."

When the meat entered his mouth, Wu Chuan's expression changed drastically.

"This, why is this different from the previous ones?"

"Master, help!"

Wu Chuan's cry for help startled Gao Ling and the other two who were about to start eating.

"Hmph, greed leads to disaster. If you weren't at the Body Integration stage, this single bite would have caused you to explode."

Zhao Yi casually struck a beam of immortal light into Wu Chuan's body. This was his only disciple, otherwise, Zhao Yi would have let him suffer the consequences.

"Come!"

After saving Wu Chuan, Zhao Yi tore through space again and pulled two women out from within.

When those two appeared from the void, their faces were full of panic, but upon seeing it was Zhao Yi, they immediately turned joyful.

"Master Zhao!"

The people who arrived were none other than Maid Nuanyu and Maid Qinghua. Seeing them making a move to pounce on him, Zhao Yi hurriedly coughed.

"Ahem~"

Maid Qinghua and Maid Nuanyu then realized what they were doing.

"Greetings, Master Zhao."

Zhao Yi... "Hmm."

"I didn't call you here for anything else; I'm inviting you to eat meat."

Maid Qinghua and Maid Nuanyu's faces turned as red as water.

"This Maid is willing."

Wu Chuan held the meat in his hand, Gao Ling was about to pick up her knife, and Li Shoucheng and Li Shouguang wished they could shove their heads into the pot. Was this a secret the two of them should be hearing?

Zhao Yi... "What are you thinking?"

"It's actually eating meat!"

"What is in your heads?"

Maid Qinghua and Maid Nuanyu... Following Zhao Yi's gaze, they finally saw a large pot as tall as a person, surrounded by four people, and said in disappointment, "It really is eating meat..."

"Chirp!"

Just then, the attack brewed by the eye of the heavenly dao finally arrived.

A beam of purple light descended from the sky, aimed directly at Zhao Yi.

"Oh!"

Maid Qinghua and Maid Nuanyu flew towards the purple light without hesitation, actually using their bodies to block the attack for Zhao Yi.

"What are you doing?"

"Go eat your meat."

Zhao Yi didn't even look at the purple light, letting it strike his body.

Bang! The purple light struck him, but Zhao Yi remained unmoved. With his cultivation at the Human Immortal Realm, this miniature Heavenly Dao could do nothing to him. Of course, Zhao Yi couldn't do anything to the Heavenly Dao either.

But he could still do whatever he wanted in the Qingling Realm. For example, right now, thousands of Mahayana Spirit Clan members had all ended up in the stomachs of Wu Chuan and the others.

"Master, I can't take it anymore, I'm about to break through."

Wu Chuan had eaten the most and, with the help of Zhao Yi's immortal light, quickly broke through to the Mid-stage Integration. This wasn't the end; Late Integration Stage, and even early Mahayana.

A single meal directly raised his cultivation by a major Realm. And the speed was incredibly fast; the minor Realms were achieved almost instantly. It was nothing like other Cultivators who spent decades or even centuries cultivating to break through a single Realm.

So much so that Wu Chuan, having achieved the Mahayana Realm, could hardly believe it. He asked blankly, "I've become a Mahayana Cultivator?"

"I am a Mahayana Cultivator?"

No one answered him, because the others around him were all busy breaking through.

The auras of Gao Ling, Li Shoucheng, and Li Shouguang were all strengthening. Even Maid Qinghua and Maid Nuanyu, who had arrived later, were floating in the Void Realm with their eyes closed.

Under the eye of the heavenly dao, defying the heavens like this and continuously breaking through cultivation levels—Zhao Yi's actions could be called demonic cultivation. Therefore, the eye of the heavenly dao lowered itself repeatedly, its might growing ever stronger.

"Are you threatening me?"

"It's just a slight improvement in cultivation."

"If you have an opinion, keep it to yourself."

"If you have no opinion, just watch."

"If you waste my time again, I'll smash the Qingling Realm."

Rumble~ The Heavenly Dao of the Qingling Realm seemed completely enraged. Endless purple light shot out from the eye of the heavenly dao, but it was all blocked by Zhao Yi's protective immortal light. The few who were breaking through were completely unaffected.

"Tch!"

"Temper is a sign of incompetence."

Zhao Yi continued to provoke it. The pupil of the Heavenly Dao indeed grew larger, and its altitude lowered once more.

Zhao Yi was secretly delighted. It had finally taken the bait.

"great sumeru treasure hoe, appear!"

"Approximate, you Dead Dog, aren't you coming out to help?"

Following Zhao Yi's words, the great sumeru treasure hoe appeared in his hand. With a dragon's roar, the golden, brilliant Approximate appeared before Zhao Yi.

"Master, I am a Dragon, not a dog!"

"Less nonsense, hurry and help~"

Zhao Yi brandished the great sumeru treasure hoe, using all his immortal power.

"Fuck your mother!"

The massive hoe dug towards the eye of the heavenly dao. Seeing this, Approximate hurriedly attached himself to the hoe. With Approximate's augmentation, the speed of the great sumeru treasure hoe increased by another thirty percent.

Sensing danger, the eye of the heavenly dao tried to ascend while hiding itself in the Void Realm, attempting to evade Zhao Yi's great sumeru treasure hoe.

"Too late!"

"Go blind!"

When the great sumeru treasure hoe dug into the eye of the heavenly dao, even Zhao Yi shuddered. It was truly painful!

Then, a rain of blood fell over the entire Hezhou Prefecture.

"Hmph, since you used the Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm to torture me, don't blame me for scheming against you."

"You, and all of you~"

Zhao Yi turned around abruptly. Having beaten back the eye of the heavenly dao, it was time to put the extermination of the Spirit Clan in the Qingling Realm on the agenda.

"With the hearts of billions as the altar, with the hatred of the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty as the ink, burning the essence souls of the Mahayana Spirit Clan, I write this genocide curse!"

Zhao Yi's magnificent voice resounded throughout the entire Qingling Realm. Billions of Spirit Clan members were suddenly overcome with fear, as if some great terror had descended.

"Who is this?"

"A genocide curse?"

"Could it be that he wants to exterminate my Spirit Clan?"

The Mahayana Spirit Clan members scattered throughout the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty quickly tore through the Void Realm, heading in the direction of Anning Prefecture.
