Chapter Thirty-Four: Roots sprout with vitality, sharpening the blade and waiting.

The Hongyuan Imperial Capital fell into Dongshi's hands only a little over a year ago. However, the style displayed by this city now is completely different from that in the past.

When the Scarlet Cult took control of the world, the hierarchy here was strict, the atmosphere was terrifying, and it was extremely oppressive. From the royal family and nobles to the poor and slaves, everyone is trembling with fear. Most of them are in panic all day long.

Or today, a family was knocked out of the mortal world, and all the members of the family were reduced to slaves. Or tomorrow there will be thirty to fifty or one hundred and eighty untouchables who will be burned to death for violating the dogma of the divine religion.

Especially when rebels are rising in various places, this atmosphere of terror is even more ferocious to the point of being outrageous.

This can be said to be a loss of heart.

When Dongshi sent his army to attack, there were millions of people in the city. Except for the devout believers who had lost their self and were bewitched by the Blood God Religion, there was no one who was not cheering.

After driving away the Patriarch of Hongyuan and erasing all traces of the Scarlet Cult in this empire, all dogma and terror disappeared.

A new power system began to spread, starting from the territory originally controlled by Dongshi. As a spark, it started to spread. Dongshi wisely chose to start with the education system, and quickly downplayed the cancer left by the Scarlet God Cult - ideological confinement. Gradually change the social atmosphere.

Since the emergence of intelligent creatures and the emergence of a large collective like society, it is inevitable that creatures will form various classes due to various reasons. No matter how some ideas and philosophies advocate the so-called great unity and the so-called equality. But in fact, as long as there are people's hearts and desires, class will always exist.

Unless all the people who make up this society are too ruthless, the various classes will never change. It will only change through change.

The rule of the Blood God Cult was ended, but the Immortal Dao system was established and replaced it. Those who have talent and qualifications will become superiors, while those who have no talent and qualifications will still be at the bottom of society. This is not determined by birth or bloodline. In some originally aristocratic families, no one from top to bottom has outstanding qualifications. It can be predicted that if no outstanding person emerges within two or three generations, the family will surely decline. Some were originally slaves, but because of their talents, they became masters, got rid of their original embarrassment, and became high-spirited.

In this context, the entire Red Plains Empire began to undergo earth-shaking changes.

The nobles who still have profound heritage no longer dare to abuse civilians and slaves at will. If a commoner or slave suddenly develops magical powers, you can imagine the fate of this nobleman.

But civilians and slaves, once they have advanced to the next level and have the Great Road to Heaven in front of them, they no longer have to be submissive. Because they know that even if they don’t have a chance, won’t their descendants also have a chance?

They and the nobles were equal before the new system.

Of course, the contradictions and chaos caused by the initial changes are very obvious. But in fact, neither Dongshi nor other disciples of the sect were too worried about this.

Such secular contradictions will probably only appear in the early stages of a monk's practice, or when a monk has reached a certain level of cultivation and has exhausted his potential and cannot see the future, so he leaves the secular world.

Once the monks reach a high level of cultivation, they will naturally turn their attention and no longer dwell on the mundane. How else to say that the monks are otherworldly?

As for the inferior monks who have exhausted their potential and cannot see the future, if they cause conflicts or chaos in the future, it is not worth caring about. Because these are all losers in the immortal way. If they dare to mess around and disturb the foundation of the immortal way, some stronger monks will come to suppress them.

The current style of the Red Plains Imperial Capital is roughly like this. In the midst of new conflicts, we make great strides forward.

Taiyi walked along the long street, but no one could see him. Among all kinds of people, Tai Taoist felt the vitality of the immortal buds and felt very happy.

In this way, he walked into the palace.

This palace was naturally owned by the royal family earlier. But Dongshi occupied this empire, so this place naturally belongs to Dongshi. The Taiyi people knew that Dongshi was not in the imperial capital when he led the troops, so they had no intention of looking for anyone and went straight to a garden behind the palace.

The garden is full of exotic flowers and plants, and there is a large green tree in it, reddish brown, with pavilions like a canopy. A spiritual beast with pure red scales was lying leisurely and taking a nap under the tree.

The Taoist came closer in a few steps and let go of his breath. Hong Lin'er suddenly got up. When he saw Tai Taoist, he immediately whined, his voice full of grievances.

Tai Taoist stroked Hong Lin'er's horns and said with a smile: "You will come with Dong Shi. You can call upon the wind and the rain. You can get whatever you want. Are you still not satisfied?"

Hong Lin'er was not dissatisfied, but he felt that he should act coquettishly to please the master who he had not seen for several years - after all, although his intelligence and spirituality had increased, he was still only in his early ten years. Children's category, etc. To say that I have a deep mind, I can't. I just subconsciously feel that this is how it should be.

Tai Taoist was indeed very happy, so he sat down cross-legged and asked questions, just like chatting with a child.

Hong Lin'er received the teachings from Tai Dao five years ago and practiced the Heavenly Demon Real Body. Now he has already refined his throat bones and can speak.

The only reason is that I am afraid that Taoists will abandon it. Although I am usually happy and at ease, sometimes when I think about it, I feel lonely and miss you very much.

The Taoist shook his head and laughed, and after some comfort, he stayed in the palace.

Tai Dao people don't want to care about the fighting and quarrels between ordinary people, and they don't have the heart to care about it. No matter what Dongshi does, it doesn't matter. As far as the current situation is concerned, what Taiyi Dao and others are waiting for is Wu Xue's calculations. No matter what the incarnation of Wu Xue did here, Tai Taoist people had already reached the result.

He didn't trust Wu Xue, even though he had an agreement with Wu Xue. But in fact, what will the bloodless clone do? Will it follow Tai Taoist's calculations, or exactly the opposite.

But no matter what, the only way for Setorak to stand up is to kill Tai Dao. To kill Taiyi, you must gather all your strength.

And this is exactly what the Tai Taoists want.

Now that his certificate has returned to deficiency, he has suppressed his cultivation for a long time and has accumulated a lot. As soon as he attains the state of return to void, his magic power surges to the limit of the human tribulation realm, and he has already glimpsed the earthly tribulation realm. He thought that with the magic weapon in his hand, the Heavenly Tribulation Realm Immortal who was about to become a Heavenly Immortal was no match for him. Since he was more confident, he would not be too afraid even if Setorak came in person with a seriously injured body.

So for Taiyi, there is only one thing to do now, and that is to wait and wait. Waiting for the final battle to come. And during this process, I happened to hone my magic power and practice my magical powers diligently to prepare for this.

Anyway, the palace is relatively clean, and since Dong Shi has left, it is natural for him as a master to guard him.

So Tai Taoist people settled in the palace without anyone knowing.

...

But he said that deep in the void, in the main church of the Blood God Religion.

After the second battle between the thirteen bloody patriarchs, they arrived here as expected. As for the various patriarchs, although they gave up the secular Blood God Religion, they had fulfilled their agreement with Settorak, so there was nothing to be taboo about.

At that time, they dragged their injured bodies and arrived here together. They didn't say anything to the leader first and only focused on healing their injuries. After the injuries were relieved, they all came out to gather together.

Probably, for them, the only place they can stay in right now is the Supreme Holy See, which is relatively stable.

The patriarch still had a kind-hearted look on his face - maybe he didn't know that the Thirteen Patriarchs rebelled and made an agreement with Settorak, or maybe he knew but kept it secret.

But no matter what, the Thirteen Patriarchs were so respectful to him, so they knew that this seemingly kind-hearted old man was not an easy character to get along with.

At this time, the thirteen patriarchs were sitting around the patriarch.

The atmosphere was silent and somewhat condensed. After a long time, Patriarch Hongyuan spoke first. He considered: "Now that all the major secular temples have fallen, I wonder if the patriarch has any strategies to reverse the disadvantage?"

The Patriarchs focused their eyes on the Patriarch.

The leader shook his head slightly: "I am old and dizzy, how can I have any plans?" Then he sighed: "I didn't expect those reptilian forces to be so huge that even the thirteen of you had to retreat in defeat. I really There is nothing we can do.”

One of the Patriarchs said angrily: "If the Lord God hadn't suddenly summoned the five Holy Blood Paladins away, we wouldn't have been defeated!"

Setolak has seventeen divine blood holy knights. Twelve were broken off by the Taiyi people earlier, and the remaining five were at first cooperating with the major patriarchs to suppress the situation. However, somehow, within two years, Before that, he was recalled by Setorak in one fell swoop, and then disappeared from sight again.

Otherwise, with the addition of these five divine blood holy knights, it is hard to say what the outcome of the second battle will be.

According to the thinking of the patriarchs, it was probably because they had essentially betrayed Settorak. Settorak felt resentful in his heart, but could not personally resolve his resentment because of the oath, so he wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and then transferred the blood of the five gods. Paladin.

Of course, we can only guess, and probably no one except Settorak knows the specific reason.

Hearing this, the bloody leader's white eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "What the Lord God does depends on the Lord God's reasons. As believers of the Lord God, how dare you speak like this?"

Listening to this, it seems that the bloody leader really doesn't know about the betrayal of the Thirteen Patriarchs.

The patriarchs secretly exchanged glances, and then Patriarch Hongyuan said, "Priest, please don't be angry. Although what we said is indeed wrong, it is the truth after all."

Then he said: "Not to mention that we are at the end of the road, but we alone cannot resist it. This is still under the premise that Taiyi people have not taken action personally. If Taiyi people take action, it will be the blood of the five gods Together with us, the Paladins are no match for this man. The only thing that can turn the situation around now is the Lord God. Leader, we ask you to ask the Lord God for instructions."

Saying this, Patriarch Hongyuan couldn't help but recall the scene five years ago when he was spying on the side and was seriously injured by Tai Dao people with a snap of his fingers, and he couldn't help but feel fear in his heart.

The leader nodded and said, "That's how it should be."

Then he said: "You have not fully recovered from your injuries. Let's heal your injuries first. Once your injuries are healed, you can be reborn as shepherds for the Lord God."

The patriarchs got the confidence, and although they were still not optimistic about the outcome of Settorak, they felt much more secure after all, so they all stood up and prepared to heal their wounds.

At this moment, a rainbow light flew over and suddenly fell in the hall, revealing the figure inside.
