Chapter 161: Chapter 160: Justifiable Defense

Translator: 549690339

A few smug cultivators at the Body Integration Realm sneered with satisfaction at Bai Hongtu’s behavior.

Good, this is the behavior expected of a weakling towards the strong – a sincere fear and trembling-

Unlike in the Zhou Dynasty, where the weak dared to accuse the strong, displaying no respect for those stronger than them.

As the strong, what’s wrong with killing a few people?

They felt that Zhou Dynasty’s laws should be amended. One set of rules for those below the Nascent Soul Stage, another for those above. That would be more fitting.

“What am I doing? Of course, killing you juniors.” One of the cultivators from the Body Integration Realm replied, showing a cold smile. Watching these talents struggling and begging for mercy before their death was indeed satisfying.

“Why?” Bai Hongtu yelled in fear. However, the four cultivators at the Body Integration Realm had already silenced the area. No matter how loudly he shouted, his cries were completely useless. This realization made Bai Hongtu even more desperate. Granted, he had a sublime talent at the Nascent Soul Stage, but he knew that it was impossible for him to close this significant gap and defeat those at the Body Integration Realm!

He had just made his name known and the Zhou Dynasty was certainly the stage meant for him to brush up his fame. He planned to travel across the nine states and leave his legends everywvhere. How could he die when he hadn’t even had the chance to indulge in wealth, beautiful women, and power!?

He refused to die like this!

He refused to give in!

Even if this was a do-or-die situation, he was determined to break through!

“I, Bai Tu will defy the heavens today!”

Bai Hongtu’s eyes turned bloodshot, and he looked as desperate as a wild bull. He looked as though he’d resort to burning himself up as a last-ditch effort.

Yu Yin just watched Bai Hongtu silently.

“Because you have bad luck and chose the disgusting Zhou Dynasty for this useless conference.” Another cultivator from the Body Integration Realm speared out his words, clearly expressing his dissatisfaction with the Zhou Dynasty. “Next time be smarter, don’t come to the Zhou Dynasty.”

“I will use your geniuses’ deaths to slap Zhou’s face!” This Body Integration Realm cultivator held deep resentment against Zhou as his direct disciple died after committing a capital crime in the Zhou Dynasty.

He didn’t care about his disciple’s life, but what bothered him was the disgrace he suffered due to his disciple.

He roared, “They have to know I, a cultivator from the Body Integration Realm, cannot be insulted!”

The cultivators at the Body Integration Realm feeling fulfilled, decided to take action to avoid further delay.

“As agreed, I’ll take this woman.” The handsome cultivator from the Body Integration Realm reached out for Yu Yin.

The rest of the cultivators from the Body Integration Realm remained silent and took action.

The pressure of the Body Integration Realm gradually crossed its limit and entered into the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, engulfing the area around the Tian room… Wait, Transcendance Tribulation Stage?

The cultivators from the Body Integration Realm suddenly realized that even though they were incredibly powerful, they were far from being strong enough to be compared with a cultivator from the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

The handsome cultivator at the Body Integration Realm screamed, holding his severed arm, stepping back tremblingly. He looked at Yu Yin in terror.

The moment he tried to touch Yu Yin, he felt a heart-piercing pain, and by the time he snapped back to reality, he found that he only had one arm left.

What terrified him even more was the fact that he couldn’t feel his arm anymore. It was as if he had lost an arm from his soul!

It was a soul attack he had failed to anticipate!

“Bai Hongtu, have you had enough fun?” Yu Yin asked coldly. The arrogance of

this handsome cultivator had deeply disgusted her. He looked at women as if they were his playthings, reminding her of the Crown Prince of the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty.

They were peas in a pod.

“Transcendance Tribulation Stage, Bai Hongtu…’

The four men suddenly felt dry in their mouth and were drenched in cold sweat. They froze in place.

“Since our Sect Master Bai is done playing, there’s no need for us to keep up the act.” Li Er and Sword Lord dropped their disguises, revealing their powerful cultivation level of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, which many cultivators yearned for.

“Whoever has wicked thoughts about my master shall die!” The orange gourd floated in the air, filled with anger. His master was the only one who could trample on him, and he wouldn’t allow these cultivators of the Body Integration Realm to even harbor such thoughts.

“Four… Transcendance Tribulation Stage… the Wishful Gourd…” The overwhelming pressure made it difficult for them to think straight.

There were only five individuals at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage in the world, and here were four of them, along with an Immortal Artifact.

This wasn’t stepping on a trap, this was like stepping into an incinerator!

“This is Zhou… You… You can’t kill us…” One of the cultivators at the Body Integration Realm struggled to negotiate for their lives, hoping that these four, treating the world as their playground, could spare them.

Why would cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage pose as a mere Nascent Soul Stage cultivators?

These cultivators at the Body Integration Realm wished for the laws of the Zhou Dynasty to protect them.

When they were the stronger ones, they wished that the law goes in their favor, yet they forgot that they could be the weak ones too.

“After all, this is the Zhou’s territory; let’s give Ji Zhi some face.”

Hearing these words, the cultivators at the Body Integration Realm had not even started to breathe a sigh of relief before they heard Bai Hongtu continue.

“But we’re just a group of pathetic, helpless little Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. When facing an attack from the Body Integration Realm, self-defense is completely justified, and doesn’t violate any law.”

The cultivators at the Body Integration Realm’s eyes widened.

Finally, the handsome Body Integration Realm cultivator was killed by Yu Yin.

The remaining three had their cultivation levels crushed, falling down to the Nascent Soul Stage, and they were unable to improve their cultivation or take over another person’s body and cultivate from the start.

These people used to bully other cultivators due to their high cultivation bases, entirely relying on their cultivation levels to establish their rule and power. You’d never know how many people secretly cursed them and wished them dead from deep within their hearts.

These three didn’t even have anyone they could truly trust. If anyone knew that they were only at the Nascent Soul Stage, they would definitely be torn apart into pieces and become feed for pigs!

They were destined to live the rest of their lives in fear and constantly in hiding.

The startling plot against Zhou ended within the room, without arousing any waves. The competition went on smoothly.

The Foundation Establishment Stage and Golden Core Stage were dazzling. The audience thoroughly enjoyed it. They could never predict what creative uses an intelligent Spiritual Treasure could have. Many competitors hid their cards during the first round and only used them now.

For instance, a disciple of the Luban Sect previously brought a puppet to fight with a disciple from the Wei Family. This time, he brought out the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards, with a harem of wives and concubines. The stage was instantly filled with beauties. The opponent felt a heavy pressure. Is this really the single Luban sect who claimed to stick with the puppets all their lives? Quite enviable.

“Competitors cannot utilize multiple Spiritual Treasures.” Before the fight even started, the referee stopped the disciple of the Luban Sect, “You violate the rule, and you are ordered to recall your other Spiritual Treasures, leaving only one…”

“Wait, how could this be a Spiritual Treasure?” The disciple of the Luban Sect hugged one of the puppets, pinched the real-like face, and loudly said, “I won’t let you insult their dignity. All of them are my wives and concubines.”

Luban Sect’s puppets were so exquisitely made that it’s almost impossible to tell if they were real or just puppets once they develop consciousness.

The puppet in the arms of the disciple of the Luban Sect looked like a shy girl. She buried her head into the disciple’s chest, feeling shy after hearing her loved one defend her.

The referee was silent for a while before continuing, “… Competitors are not allowed to seek external help. You found multiple helpers, which seriously violates the rules. You are therefore, disqualified from this match..”
