Chapter 232 Pay to Scan Hostile Cultivators! Slay Emperor Jiro
This is a brand new era, and the Imperial Dynasty is poised to fulfill the wishes of its ancestors and stand at the pinnacle of the world!
But what they were seeing left them feeling utterly hopeless and powerless!
Shen Yun wasn't about to give up; he came here to rob them.
The Pearl of National Fortune is the size of a fist and is filled with a dense golden mist.
[Ding! The player is absorbing the island nation's national fortune pearl. After absorbing all the fortune, the player will receive a lucky charm!]
[Lucky Mark: Activated when viewing blind boxes, digging for treasure, spinning the reward roulette, or entering secret realms, it increases your personal luck value.]
[Number of times: once]
[Note: If a player destroys a nation's Luck Pearl and then attempts to plunder another nation's Luck Pearl, there will be a permanent backlash from the player's Luck.]
'It's a pity it's only once…' Shen Yun raised an eyebrow: 'If we were to dominate the surrounding countries and make them vassal states, I wonder if we would still be able to use their national fortune pearls.'
They're all my subordinates, so using them shouldn't backfire, right?
'That's a novel idea; I'll try it out when I have the chance!'
"Mr. Shen, stop right now!!" Tamura Jiro, who had arrived at the door, saw Shen Yun frantically absorbing the dynasty's fortune, his eyes filled with darkness, and he staggered.
This is a devil!
He will destroy the island nation!!
But Tamura Jiro knew he couldn't stop them, so he quickly turned to look at the monks not far away:
"Please, esteemed seniors, lend a helping hand! This is no small matter!"
With a single breath of life force, their country would be ruined!
He can accept being slowly exploited now!
"Fellow Daoist Shen, would you be willing to sit down and discuss this?" The one who spoke was the red-robed elder with the highest cultivation level.
But his tone was very gentle, and he spoke as if chatting with an old friend.
There was nothing they could do; they were riding a ninth-tier demon!
However, he was met with a muffled thud.
puff! ! !
A pale blue longsword pierced directly into Tamura Jiro's heart from his back!
"You!!" Tamura Jiro, feeling his life rapidly fading, suppressed his resentment and turned to look at Shen Yun with trembling hands:
"Mr. Shen...why...why..."
Pfft!
The longsword was sheathed.
Shen Yun patted Tamura Jiro on the shoulder and smiled faintly:
"I was just kidding you guys before. I'm here to rob you."
Seizing the pearl that determines the fate of the nation would be a fight to the death; it's better to just confront them directly.
Also, let's intimidate the cultivators who have come to the island nation and tell them not to get too involved with them.
Thump!
"I... I curse your character to be... a red name..." Tamura Jiro collapsed to the ground, powerless.
Until the very end, he could no longer conceal the rage in his heart, staring at Shen Yun with such resentment that it seemed as if he could cast a curse upon her.
Shen Yun had no time to pay attention to him; he was focused on the notification that had just popped up on the game projection:
[Ding! A Xuan Tian cultivator is present. The player has been marked, triggering a red name effect!]
[Friendly Reminder: The system detects that the player currently has three bound characters. Please select one and check if the bound character is in a red name state.]
As soon as the notification was given, chibi-style avatars of Ling Qingxue and the other two appeared.
“I see…” Shen Yun glanced at the Xuan Tian cultivators present and sneered as he linked the red name status with Ling Qingxue.
No wonder Tamura Jiro gathered so many monks here so quickly.
Their real intention was to exploit the "red name" system for characters!
To be honest, the red name system does make players more cautious about how they interact with weaker cultivators, preventing them from ruining their cloud-raised characters.
But Shen Yun, who holds billions of game coins, is clearly not among them!
Not to mention that Ling Qingxue not only has a powerful background, but is also extremely strong.
Even if a cultivator discovers she has a red name, so what?
Anyone who dares to kill her or loot her equipment should think twice before deciding whether they have the capability!
[Ding! Character selection successful - Ling Qingxue!]
[Friendly Reminder: Currently, it's impossible for players to determine which cultivators have marked you with a red name, but spending money can!]
[Spend 648 to unlock the [Scan Halo] and learn about the names of nearby cultivators marked with your name, as well as their sect affiliation!]
"This feature works!" Shen Yun clicked to recharge and activated the scanning halo!
Swish~!
A red light, visible only to him, spread from his feet to a radius of a hundred meters.
Soon, among the cultivators outside the palace, seven red names and their background factions appeared.
Shen Yun glanced around and realized that the black-robed old man who had spoken earlier was one of them.
Without a word, his flying sword blurred into afterimages as he directly attacked his opponent!
"You!!!" The black-robed old man's expression changed drastically, and he instinctively retreated, but before he could make a move...
Boom~! !
The pale blue sword light burst forth with a dazzling golden holy light, and the pressure unique to holy weapons enveloped the entire island nation's royal palace.
All the cultivators present were frozen in place by the oppressive power of the holy weapon!
"hiss!!!"
"A sacred weapon?!" The cultivators' pupils constricted!
Although they were Xuan Tian cultivators, some of them had never even seen a sacred weapon, only admired its splendor in books.
Even cultivators from a top-tier power like the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion know that only ancestral figures can obtain sacred weapons.
Ordinary cultivators are simply not qualified to possess such a treasure!
But in this small place that they thought was a desolate wasteland, not only did imperial beasts appear, but even holy weapons were seen.
And it's still in the hands of the same person!
It's obvious without even thinking that this person must be an extremely powerful cultivator from Earth!
"Damn it! This emperor has ulterior motives!!" Some cultivators had already realized what was happening and glared angrily at the lifeless emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty on the ground.
'He must know how powerful this person is!'
'I've really been tricked this time!!'
When they arrived on Earth, they already knew about the "red name" status set by the Heavenly Dao.
It's obvious from this situation that the emperor intends to use them to counterbalance Shen Yun!
next moment.
Puff puff puff!!
The heads of seven cultivators on the field shot into the sky!
The corpse fell to the ground, its soul leaving the body; even the black-robed elder who was the first to fly out trembled as he spoke.
"Thank you for your mercy, senior. I will leave now and never dare to invade again!"
The enemy has already brought out sacred weapons; it would be easy to make them perish!
This person left a way out, indicating that they didn't want to push things to the extreme.
To their astonishment, their souls were still suppressed in the void by the holy weapon and unable to move.
It wasn't until they saw Shen Yun toss out the Soul-Devouring Banner that they realized this wasn't an attempt to let them go, and their hearts pounded with fear.
"Do not!!!"
The Soul-Devouring Banner has now reached the level of a low-grade seventh rank, and the black smoke it emits has filled half the sky, making it extremely intimidating.
The black smoke rising from the banner resembled a monster devouring the souls of the seven cultivators.
"Senior, we know we were wrong! We'll remove our red names right away... Ah!!!"
In an instant, the cultivator's soul in the void was swallowed up by the black mist.
Of course, the island nation's emperor and the worshippers inside the house were also dragged into the banner with screams as the black mist extracted their souls.
After Shen Yun put away the Soul-Devouring Banner, he looked at the Japanese royal ministers who were silent and trembling not far away:
"Stop your scheming, or I'll slaughter you until you have nowhere to hide! Prepare another fifty spiritual veins for me!"
They owe him seven spiritual veins but won't give them to the cultivators?!
Let's just send another fifty to fleece the韭菜 (a metaphor for retail investors).
The royal ministers, filled with trepidation, repeatedly agreed:
"Hi! Mr. Shen, please rest assured, we will find it as soon as possible!"
Although the loss of the pearl of national destiny will cause the island nation's spiritual veins and various resources to be difficult to produce.
But as long as we cooperate well with Shen Yun, there is still hope that the nation's fortunes will gradually recover.
It's better than being slaughtered on the spot!
"Remember to find a discerning emperor. What I need is an obedient dog." Shen Yun glanced at the crowd, tightened his grip on Bai Xian'er's waist, and leaped away.
Then he activated the Demon Lord's Slave Seal and notified Bewitching Heart:
"Bewitching Heart, the island nation's emperor has been killed by me. I'm preparing to infiltrate the island nation's high-ranking officials and plant spies."
The emperor's execution was enough to intimidate these ministers.
Sending a few people in would be an easy task.
