Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1252: From Great Xia To Great Xia (3)
Chapter 1252: From Great Xia To Great Xia (3)
Knowledge Seeking Realm.
One of the two holy lands of humanity.
Even with the deaths of Sunmoons and Invincibles at Great Xia, the holy land still looked as beautiful and peaceful as ever. The only stain to this picture of tranquil beauty was a certain farmland wrapped around the holy land.
With a sword in hand, Wan Tiansheng threaded through the farm, careful to avoid stepping on any of the crops. Main gate of Knowledge Seeking Realm.
The two guards demanded loudly, "Who are you?"
A sword was swung. Two lives were lost.
"Lan Tian, cover the phenomena for me."
"Sure."
With a giggle by Lan Tian, the sky above the Knowledge Seeking Realm trembled before being covered by a layer of mist. Then, Wan Tiansheng soared into the sky.
Numerous individuals walked out of the Knowledge Seeking Realm. People of all ages and genders were among them.
Some of them recognized Wan Tiansheng. Looking at his blood-covered body, someone exclaimed in shock, "Wan Tiansheng, why are you here?"
Wan Tiansheng spoke in a perfectly serene voice, "Today, the myriad races attacked Great Xia. When Great Xia requested help, Mountainseas and Sunmoons alike arrived to help. But apart from a few elderlies, nobody from the holy land was there. Why?"
Someone answered with a displeased frown, "The Knowledge Seeking Realm is a holy land. This place is too important. There are countless legacies here, including the source of our heavenly source qi..."
"I see."
Wan Tiansheng nodded, "Eleven Sunmoons and thirty-seven Mountains. Forty-eight in total."
The others frowned in confusion.
A sword was swung.
And a Sunmoon lost his head.
"Ahhhhhhh!"
"Help!"
The crowd scattered in panic.
Wan Tiansheng only killed the Mountainseas and Sunmoons. He did not lay a hand on the children and the youth. Instead, he lectured them, "Everyone, remember this well. Your elders were the ones who had fought for the preservation of the Human Realm. Thanks to their contributions, humanity has allowed you to enjoy some special pregoratives and rights. You are not required to complete any difficult missions or go through bitter competition before receiving the best humanity has to offer. You live in the lap of luxury. You are worthy of this special treatment. Because your elders fought for humanity.
"Alas, we are not living in a peaceful era. The myriad races are still seeking our doom. We are not living in a golden age. If not even Mountainseas and Sunmoons are willing to fight for humanity, who else can humanity rely on?
"If you lack the courage or the willingness to fight, you should remain in the Skysoar or Cloudbreach Realm for life. That will spare you from the worst of battles. But as Mountainseas and Sunmoons, you are not allowed to shrink from your duty to humanity."
Wan Tiansheng continued delivering his lecture in the midst of slaughter, "Therefore, I'm here to kill them. I hope you won't forget this day. Remember this moment. Remember this slaughter of your parents and seniors. They die for only one reason: fleeing from battle."
"Holy land?" What a joke. "The holy land is nothing. Heavenly source qi? There is no holy land in the Human Realm. There is only a realm we have fought to preserve. The holy land is nothing."
As the slaughter progressed, moons started raining from the sky while blood drenched the ground. At this point, Wan Tiansheng's white robes had turned completely red. Countless weaklings hid far away and watched the carnage while trembling in fear. A certain demon was killing every single Sunmoon and Mountainsea in the holy land. Not one of them was spared. Including those he had killed in the ruin, Wan Tiansheng had killed around thirty Sunmoons and sixty Mountainseas in a day.
After stopping to cough a mouthful of blood, Wan Tiansheng smiled and said, "You're not completely helpless, after all. You're actually able to injure me slightly. You could have killed a Pseudo Invincible if all of you helped earlier."
Then, he went to the back of the Knowledge Seeking Realm where the true holy land, the Heavenly Source Domain was located, the place where the heavenly source fruit trees were grown.
With a smile, he swung his sword.
Holy land?
No. Humanity had no need for this.
Heavenly Source Domain?
This so-called holy land was merely the personal territory of these people. There was no need for it to remain. Since these people loved their holy land so much, the holy land would accompany them to the afterlife.
With another swing of his sword, the holy land was cleaved apart. Finally, he walked out of the Knowledge Seeking Realm. He regarded the two characters floating in the air: Knowledge Seeking
He smiled yet again and swung his sword.
The two characters burst apart.
From today onward, the Knowledge Seeking Realm was no more.
"I'll be back soon. Keep covering for me."
Lan Tian giggled happily, "Go. Have fun. Remember me when you're leaving. I'll go with you."
"I will."
Wan Tiansheng vanished with a flicker. Moments later, moons started dropping from the sky above the distant War Shrine. After some time, the bloody Wan Tiansheng returned.
After coughing a mouthful of blood, he said, "Let's go. They are not completely worthless, after all. What a pity."
He grinned and said, "I killed forty human Sunmoons today."
Lan Tian smiled, revealing his beautiful dimples as he said, "You are such a demon. A great demon. Nobody has killed more human Sunmoons than you."
"Cough, cough, cough..."
After coughing a few mouthfuls of blood, Wan Tiansheng grinned, "Yes. I am a demon. The two holy lands are no more. From today onward, there are no longer any holy lands in the Human Realm. Let's go. We still have some filth to cleanse. Those retired officials, those traitorous experts, and those cowardly bastards who have been bending the knee to the myriad races are waiting for me. Also, give me the list of those who had collaborated with you in the past."
"Sure."
The two departed, with falling moons as their backdrop. The entire Dual Holy Prefecture was in chaos. Wails and cries filled the air.
Women, youth, and even babies were crying.
Wan Tiansheng had slaughtered every single Mountainsea and Sunmoon in the prefecture.
Dragging his heavily injured body with him, he swept through the Human Realm. Nobody was capable of stopping him.
No, that was untrue.
The moment the two departed, a silhouette appeared from each of the two holy lands. The two looked at each other with sorrow and helplessness.
The Human Realm had not been left completely defenseless. The final trump card was still around. Three human Invincibles who had lost their tri-life bodies in the past were still around. They had not acted when Great Xia was under attack. And when the two holy lands were under attack, they had also refrained from acting. Even if their own descendants were among those being slaughtered.
The two sighed with regret. They had never been able to bring themselves to act against their own descendants. And thus, Wan Tiansheng had transformed into a demon. A demon who had dirtied his hands for them.
"He...is not done yet."
The second person sighed, "So be it. Let him continue."
"Do we...keep him around?"

"Sigh. No, let him be. The future generation shall decide for themselves whether this is right or wrong. We are...already old."
The two sounded incomparably helpless and regretful.
***
That day, Wan Tiansheng rampaged across the Human Realm.
One traitorous military official after another was killed. One expert after another who had slain multiple character cultivators in the past was killed. One myriad race collaborator after another was killed.
Lan Tian served as the best traitor detector. Nobody who had ever collaborated with the Myriad Race Cult could hide from him.
Numerous heads were severed from their bodies.
Rivers of blood flowed.
***
Finally, Wan Tiansheng returned to Great Xia City.
Countless people had died in the city as well.
The people lured over by Zhou Mingren had all been killed. That included a ninth-stage Sunmoon.
Great Xia City. Prefect's manor.
Wan Tiansheng landed on the ground, looked at Xia Huyou, and asked, "Where's Zhou Mingren?"
As a response, Xia Huyou took a ball of light out.
Wan Tiansheng nodded. After a short moment, Zhou Mingren's projection appeared from the ball. When he saw Wan Tiansheng, he smiled.
"You're back. Your current fashion choice...is excellent."
Zhou Mingren said, "Wan Tiansheng, both you and Ye Batian were too strong. And too talented. It truly feels terrible to be born in the same generation as the two of you."
Wan Tiansheng smiled and said, "I'm leaving."
"I guessed as much." Zhou Mingren asked, "Are you here to send me to the afterlife? There is no need for that. I will go before long. Wan Tiansheng...do you think humanity...can really produce an Emperor?"
"I don't know. That's too far in the future for me to guess." Wan Tiansheng said, "You won't be able to see the arrival of that day. I doubt I can live long enough to see that day either. Perhaps when that day arrives, it will also be the day for me to depart this world. After all, I am the demonic human."
Zhou Mingren laughed for a long time. Finally, he stopped and said, "In that case, let me present you with the offering for your soul in advance. After all, we have known each other for such a long time..."
The projection started burning.
"Tiansheng, do you still remember...that year? You, Batian, and I once talked about our potential title after affirming our dao in the future." Zhou Mingren said, "I said that I wanted to be known as the Righteous Light King. Alas, time has proven that I'm incapable of embodying that title. Batian wanted to be known as the Hegemonic King. He shall be the hegemon of the Myriad Realms. And it has been proven that he was incapable of that as well. You are different. You only wanted to be Wan Tiansheng. Not a king. Not an emperor. And you seem...to have accomplished that."
Slowly, he dissipated away. Finally, a moon dropped from the sky.
Wan Tiansheng watched in silence. After a long while, he looked at Xia Huyou and said, "From today onward, the multiple character faction no longer exists in Great Xia. Prince Xia, I hereby resign from my post."
With tears in his eyes, Xia Huyou smiled and nodded, "Principal Wan, I grant you leave. Have a pleasant journey, Principal."
"Thank you."
Wan Tiansheng smiled and looked at the distant academy. He did not return. Instead, he took a step forward and vanished into thin air.
Xia Huyou watched silently. Finally, he bowed. This was his way of seeing Principal Wan off.
From today onward, the multiple character faction no longer existed in Great Xia.
Great Xia, the origin of the multiple character faction, also the end of multiple character faction.
It might reappear in the future, but it would no longer be the same multiple character faction. A multiple character faction without Ye Batian and Wan Tiansheng would no longer be the multiple character faction.
"Farewell...Martial Grandfather."
He sent his silent blessings to the departing principal.
The teacher of his father had departed.
