Chapter 1403: Chapter 1397: Well Played
“The world thinks he is the absolute number one genius, and that is indeed the truth.
At first, I never paid it any mind. My father taught me to hold the world in my heart, so how could I have the time for such trivial envy.
Until one day, I realized I could never catch up to him. He became my shadow, so I desperately fought to chase after him.”
Min Tiange chuckled.
“Until my master died, until Mu Xueqing told me that it wasn’t my lack of aptitude, nor was it a lack of diligence.
I got drunk that day, wailing loudly in a half-awake stupor. I knew I wasn’t inferior to him, and my lifelong struggle had finally yielded an answer.”
“After I killed him, only then did I realize that the world comparing me to him was truly the biggest joke under the heavens.”
“And now?” Li Yunbing’s mockery deepened.
“…”
Min Tiange zoned out for a moment.
“There is still an answer. I told you a long time ago that I am the same kind of person as your Azure Cloud Li Clan, but you just didn’t believe me, didn’t trust me.
I saw the rot of the Imperial Dynasty; my lifelong goal has always been to change the overarching situation of the Imperial Dynasty.”
“I saw hope in the immortal tomb. I spent my entire life running around for the revival of the Immortal Court. One day, the Immortal Court will overthrow the Imperial Dynasty.”
Even now, Min Tiange remained stubbornly unrepentant.
“I have many plans. Truly, I have more than enough confidence.” The corners of Min Tiange’s mouth curled upwards.
The family members’ brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
Yet this did not hinder the powerful confidence revealed in Min Tiange’s words and actions.
It seemed that no matter what dead end he reached, he would not feel the slightest remorse for the things he had done.
“I have always believed that destruction brings new life, but my father did not believe me.
He dedicated his entire life to loyalty to the Zishu family, to the Human Race. How could a man personally destroy the very thing he built with his own hands? Therefore, it had to be me.”
Min Tiange exhaled a long breath.
“I did it. Acting deliberately, step by step, I accomplished many, many things the people of the world wouldn’t even dare to imagine. Even today, I still have many plans.”
“My first step was to throw the grand scheme of the world into chaos, blinding the eyes of the world, making them busy with racial wars, busy with internal strife.”
“My second step was to find a like-minded person.
No one was more suitable to cooperate with me than Wenren Xianyi. She was anxious to escape her fate as a puppet, and I was anxious to destroy her Imperial Dynasty.
Although in my eyes she lacked any understanding of the grand scheme, we always shared some thoughts that happened to coincide.”
“In our eyes, both the immortals and the world were nothing but playthings to be manipulated in the palms of our hands.”
“Pah!” Li Yaotie spat, cursing under his breath. “Two sons of bitches.”
“No, you are wrong. There are too many people playing politics in the world. Schemes and tricks, deception and treachery—wherever there are people, there is conflict.”
Min Tiange was not the least bit angered by Li Yaotie’s cursing; instead, he appeared exceedingly calm.
“We simply disregarded our reputations, exposed our ambitions to the eyes of the world, and used somewhat dirtier methods.
How many people in the world are trying to climb to the top? Who doesn’t want to climb?”
“My third step was to use the immortals to destroy the Imperial Dynasty for me, while I profited from it. I intended to hide myself until I was absolutely certain I could become a Great Emperor.”
“A dream without strength is forever nothing but empty talk.”
Min Tiange looked up at the sky.
“My fourth step was to remain hidden during this era where immortals emerged into the world. Destruction and disaster will always give birth to heroes.
The people of the world will never care about what a hero has done in the past; they only need the hero to bring them hope.”
“I would bring hope to the people of the world and ascend my divine altar.
Leading the scattered Human Race to fight against the immortals; at that time I might become someone like my father, assisting a new Human Emperor, shining brightly through the course of the era.”
“My fifth step: I would lead the Human Race to become the true masters of the world, dedicating my entire life to resolving the calamity of the immortals.
Perhaps I would spend my entire life fighting the immortal and imperishable immortals, but I would be more vigilant than anyone else in the world, guarding the mortal realm from the enslavement of the immortals.”
Li Dalong’s expression was gloomy, but then gradually became relieved.
It was truly difficult to distinguish the boundary between good and evil.
Min Tiange was sincere. The world was plunged into disaster because of him, yet he still hoped to achieve something great. At the very least, Li Dalong’s ambitions weren’t this grand.
His voice was faint, “What you said is still just empty talk. You failed. Even if you had truly accomplished it, you would still be an enemy of our Li Clan.”
“Yes, it is all empty talk. Battling heaven brings endless joy, battling humans brings endless joy, battling immortals…”
The faint smile on Min Tiange’s face gradually vanished. “The immortals feared me, which is why Su Chen exists.”
“Watch out!”
The Red Dust Immortal glared, letting out a sharp, cold shout.
At this moment, Li Dalong, Li Yunbing, and Li Yaotie all experienced a drastic change in expression.
As Min Tiange’s voice fell, his resolute face turned as cold as frost. A Spiritual power brimming with oppressive might erupted from his body.
Body Integration?
No!
Even Li Dalong, who commanded the position of Underworld King in the Underworld, experienced a drastic change in expression at this moment.
This was an oppressive might that not even that Dao-Integration realm mighty figure who mastered the Dao of ‘Slaughter’ in the Underworld possessed.
Beneath this oppressive might, it seemed all things in the world would be destroyed.
A beam of white light and a beam of black light appeared to Min Tiange’s left and right; this was the Dao method of Light and Shadow cultivated to its absolute zenith.
The Red Dust Immortal’s proudest ‘Red Dust Realm’ actually began to shatter inch by inch!
Min Tiange looked calmly at the Li Clan members, then raised his head toward the Blood Moon.
At this moment, auras from the entire Western Frontier, and even from within the Imperial Dynasty, were drawn over, shocked by this powerful aura.
“You alone cannot stop me.”
“The immortals fear me. Even though I have done so much for Them, They remained extremely wary of me.
Su Chen is Their backup plan. They thought that by teaching Su Chen to cultivate the Great Dao of ‘Sealing the Heavens’, they could block my Dao of Light and Shadow.”
“They attempted to hand everything I spent the greater part of my life building over to Su Chen on a silver platter.”
“The immortals stand high and mighty above all. For the past sixty thousand years, they have mocked me.
They wanted to see me fall from the divine altar, struggling like a mere ant drowning in a quagmire.”
“But They should be afraid.”
“Because whether in the past or the present, Su Chen is unworthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me.”
“Son of Heaven? He may be the Son of Heaven, but I, Min Tiange, use heaven as my chessboard. Even if accidents happen, I still stand one level higher than heaven.”
The soil beneath the ground shattered layer by layer, crushed like a hydraulic press by Min Tiange’s terrifying, oppressive might at this moment.
Even space itself fractured like a spiderweb under this oppressive might!
Li Dalong and the others hurriedly retreated.
Min Tiange gazed deeply at the Blood Moon in the cloudy sky.
He had never fallen from the divine altar. At this moment, he seemed to be fighting against the very sky itself. “Our contest has just begun.”
“Don’t stop him, let’s go!” Li Dalong hoisted the Heavenly Coffin onto his shoulder, shielding Li Yunbing behind him, his eyes wide open.
The Red Dust Immortal instantly used the shattered Red Dust Realm, compressed by the oppressive might, to protect the wide-eyed Li Yaotie.
Dripping with cold sweat, he cursed loudly, “Damn it!”
This was completely different from the aura when he initially intercepted Min Tiange!
At this moment, Li Wei, who was in the Imperial Capital, felt his heart skip a beat.
In the Imperial Capital, Wenren Xianyi, who held immense power, furrowed her brows tightly.
In the Northern Frontier, Min Youguo, who was resting with his eyes closed amidst the wind and snow, suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze was filled with disbelief and a hint of paternal gratification, which then dissolved into a long, drawn-out sigh.
In Spirit City, the Spirit Lord could no longer sit still.
Abandoning His languid posture, He suddenly levitated into the air over Spirit City, crossing an entire city with a single step, lotuses blooming beneath each footstep.
“Half-Step Mahayana? About to enter the Mahayana realm?”
The Spirit Lord’s expression turned exceedingly dark.
“Feigning panic, presenting a weak front to me, seizing the opportunity to escape… well played, Min Tiange. This child must absolutely not be allowed to live!!!”
