How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!

Mad Blade took a deep breath: "The Heavenly Dao ought to have compassion, and the heavens and earth likewise possess a righteous path. Our Mad Blade Sect, are we the kind to overstep boundaries and attack the lawless citizens? Taking hold of this passageway, we have but one mission, to protect the myriad beings of Heaven and Earth!"

The audience was completely petrified.

Sect Master, did you really say those words full of grand pride and overflowing righteousness?

Does our Mad Blade Sect have anything to do with these nauseating righteous proclamations?

Mad Taoist laughed: "Sect Master has become enlightened."

Mad Blade completely did not want to look at that old face of his, shifting his gaze downward: "Pass my command: Guard this passage. Any Ancient Wilderness person who crosses the boundary will be treated as a bandit and killed without mercy! Within a hundred years, anyone with disloyal intentions will be personally eliminated by me!"

The words "hundred years" were spoken with such grit and determination.

"By order!" The Great Elder was the first to bow.

"By Sect Master's command!" All the elders on the high platform bowed together.

"All disciples heed the order!"

Below, the disciples riding the Four-winged Blood Flood Dragons, ready to step onto the battlefield, shouted in unison: "Present!"

"The army sets forth, target, Broken Tail Mountain!"

"By order!"

The Blood Flood Dragons broke through the air, tens of thousands of disciples flew toward the sect. Over there is the passageway between the Ancient Wilderness and this world...

Lin Xiaosu's heart raced wildly, but at this time, he would not show any emotion. Any emotion would be a stimulus.

However, Mad Taoist did not think this way, he boasted: "Sect Master, you and I are now people bound by the same fate for a hundred years, the most reliable allies in history. Wouldn't you invite this humble taoist in for a cup of tea?"

"Sorry, I prohibit tea!" Mad Blade replied.

Mad Taoist was very puzzled: "Cultivation in the mountains and wilderness, tea is for cultivating one's character and nature, Sect Master even prohibits tea?"

Mad Blade said: "I did not prohibit it in the past, from today onwards, it is prohibited!"

He turned and went into the room.

"Daoist, let's go, I'll invite you for tea..." Lin Xiaosu said.

"Relations have come to this point, the bond has lasted a hundred years, yet can't even earn a cup of tea... Alas, the heart is not ancient, how can it be spoken?! Heart gone cold and teeth chilled!" Mad Taoist shook his head and sighed, his form fell onto Lin Xiaosu's Wing Blade.

The Wing Blade soared through the air, flying out of the Secret Realm, out of the island, shooting toward the largest battleship ahead...

A thousand meters away from the battleship.

Mad Taoist's form ascended, his body stretched into the sky, vanishing into thin air.

The entire army opened their eyes wide...

The Wing Blade's wings folded in, landing on the deck.

Lin Xiaosu stepped out, smiling.

"Young Master Lin!" Li Chushui slightly bowed.

"Little Su!" The door to the command room suddenly opened, a figure flashed, Blood Trace King stood before him, both hands resting on his shoulders.

"Everyone need not worry, the problem of this folded space has been resolved." Lin Xiaosu said.

With just one sentence, everyone's heartbeat accelerated, as if it would leap out from their bodies.

"Problem solved, what does that mean?" Blood Trace, with an obvious knife scar on his forehead, was at this moment deep crimson.

"It means... Mad Blade Sect has decided to join us in alliance. They will act as the vanguard in this space, giving their all to intercept Ancient Wilderness crossing the boundary."

Ah...

A loud call came from the cultivation team.

The entire ship erupted in cheers.

Lin Weiyang just stepped out of the command room, and suddenly paused at the door, he was completely bewildered.

"This... why is this? Why?" Blood Trace's face had also turned bright red. Heaven bears witness; such an expression on a Heavenly King, moved to such a degree, has never happened before.

Yet today, it has happened.

Because he is the overall commander of this battle.

Because after a night of review, he felt perplexed and clueless.

Even more so because he had a dreadful premonition of defeat, with the mountains and rivers falling.

However, Lin Xiaosu came into and out of this space and told them, there were no enemies!

The anticipated strong foes, were actually strong allies!

Who could calmly withstand such a shift?

Lin Xiaosu slightly smiled: "Mad Blade, the sect master of Mad Blade Sect, is that daoshi's closest friend, the kind who live and die together. That daoshi guided with logic and moved with sentiment, awakening the Mad Blade Sect's conscience. The Sect Master has already ordered, the entire sect to stand against Ancient Wilderness. Originally intending to advance here, the large troop has already turned around, advancing to Broken Tail Mountain on the side of Ancient Wilderness."

Li Chushui took a deep breath, her face, at this moment, was as radiant as spring blossoms: "That daoshi has left?"

"Yes!"

"Young Master Lin..." Yin Jiuyou spoke: "Could you invite that daoshi down? All the Kun Cang companions eagerly wish to meet this senior."

"I know what you mean." Lin Xiaosu slightly smiled: "You want to invite him to guard this place, right?"

"Is it possible? If it is possible, then the South Sea would truly be as solid as gold." Another sect master said.

Lin Xiaosu faced countless eager eyes and lightly shook his head: "Him, you still better not count on it. Everyone has their own mission."

Li Chushui nodded deeply: "Young Master Lin speaks truly; that daoshi still has the Tashan Defense Line, how can he be concerned with both places? He relieved this great difficulty for the South Sea for old ties, such an enormous favor, how can we ask for more?"

"Yes, indeed, in the days to come, we should personally visit the daoshi's Immortal Mansion, to thank him for the favor of his intervention today..."

Blood Trace laid his hand on Lin Xiaosu's shoulder: "Shall we sit over there?"

"Good!"

The two walked towards the edge of the deck, where there was a partition with two chairs and a tea table.

The two sat down, the sea breeze blew past, refreshing and pleasant, the sea waved before them, vast and boundless.

"Brother, shall we chat?"

Five words, rendered in secret transmission.

Blood Trace King originally couldn't use secret transmission, but after breaking into observing heaven, under the guidance of Miao Yin Heavenly King and Blue Demon, he also activated this skill.

He is the most convenient, because he has already breached the Observing Heaven, Observing Heaven realm, and can transmit sounds in secret.

"I was just about to talk to you." Lin Xiaosu's voice returned.

"Do you know what I want to talk to you about?"

"You want to ask whether the situation in folded space is true, right?"

"Could it be... could it be that what you just said is not the truth?" Blood Trace King's face changed.

"There are true parts, and there are false parts. I can't tell them, but I must tell you!" Lin Xiaosu said.

"Go ahead!"

Lin Xiaosu said: "The true situation is that the Mad Blade Sect has indeed currently become our comrades-in-arms."

Blood Trace's heart, which was hanging high, slowly dropped: "And the false aspect?"

"The Taoist is not an old friend of his. Mad Blade has the intention to dismember us, but he is forced, only because the Taoist has cast a high-level spell called 'Cause and Effect Hundred Years Lock', linking their lives practically to death..."

This miraculous cultivation story, revealed in full by Lin Xiaosu, stirred Blood Trace King's heart with excitement: "What a magical spell, what an ingenious method to break the situation. Little Su, where did you unearth this Taoist? Can you invite him to join the Qianlong's grand strategy?"

"You plan to rely heavily on him?" Lin Xiaosu said.

Blood Trace said: "Not just me, the Chief Long should also rely heavily on him. The current circumstances are so severe, one could say truly unprecedented, if such a great power person can fully engage, the Great Xia Civilization might truly be preserved."

Lin Xiaosu sighed: "I'm just worried Qianlong might rely too heavily on him, so I speak frankly with you."

Blood Trace frowned: "You're worried Qianlong might rely too heavily on him?"

"Yes!" Lin Xiaosu said: "He has his constraints, he can only make a move one more time! Once he makes two moves, he must die, and if he dies, Mad Blade will also die, the Mad Blade Sect we just subdued will definitely rebel!"

Blood Trace's back was drenched in cold sweat: "Is this also cause and effect?"

"Yes, so Qianlong must not hold too high expectations of him and minimize disturbances."

Blood Trace slowly nodded...

He is the Qianlong King, he is well-versed in the art of strategy.

Because of one Mad Taoist, Mad Blade is locked, because of one Mad Blade, the entire Mad Blade Sect is bound.

This appears to be a deadlock.

But actually, it's easy to break.

If the enemy knows the constraint on Mad Taoist, sends two batches of people to assassinate him, assassination will certainly not succeed, but can trigger Mad Taoist's counterattack.

Mad Taoist's first kill, the first batch of people will undoubtedly die.

But the second kill?

With the second kill, Mad Taoist himself must die.

If he dies, Mad Blade will also die, if Mad Blade dies, Mad Blade Sect will surely rebel!

The joyful situation they worked hard to create will vanish in an instant.

"Little Su, do we need to provide him special protection?" Blood Trace said.

"Protecting such a great power... is a bit too funny! Let's avoid it." Lin Xiaosu said: "You just need to keep this secret, at the same time, ensure Qianlong doesn't push him."

Keep this secret.

Outsiders will not know Mad Taoist's constraints.

They won't dare to take action against him easily.

And preventing Qianlong from pushing him isn't as easy as imagined.

The current situation is so perilous, anyone from Qianlong, anyone from Kun Cang, as long as they encounter difficult issues, will think of Mad Taoist first.

At that time, all kinds of plans to invite him out will emerge.

If the higher-ups of Qianlong don't know Mad Taoist's constraints, with Qianlong's methods, might indeed force Mad Taoist to act, so Lin Xiaosu explained the situation in advance to Blood Trace King to avoid things reaching that point.

This is why he wants to fully disclose to Blood Trace.

"Don't worry, I know what to do! Let's talk about other matters..." Blood Trace said: "Do you know the situation overseas?"

"I don't know, but can roughly imagine!" Lin Xiaosu said.

On the third of March, Equatorial Split Sun.

Not only in Daxia Country are there three fissures, but there are also fissures overseas.

Under Lin Xiaosu's careful deployment, and with everyone's full cooperation, Daxia Country achieved sealing.

What about other countries?

It is impossible to completely seal them all.

Overseas must already be in chaos.

Indeed, the news Blood Trace received through special channels just confirmed his judgment.

In Beimo Country, Nanmo State, Luoba State, Middle East...

A large number of cultivators have already appeared in modern cities.

Enlightenment realm giants have already appeared in the sky.

Social order begins to collapse, management structure begins to collapse...

Cultivators kill and injure, occupy land, occupy mountains, their worldview of the law of the jungle forcibly integrates into modern cities, Jianghu rules and legal systems violently collide, regions are completely messed up.

The military of various countries is mobilized, but under the cultivators, they are vulnerable.

Fierce beasts emerge in the wilds, swords traverse the sky, this world is already teetering.

"The world has already fallen into chaos, currently only our Daxia enjoys peace, but I'm absolutely not optimistic, thinking our border can seal all the unstoppable strongmen globally." Blood Trace King said: "Brother, the direction of the war has already changed, it's no longer about sealing the three domestic rat holes but facing the thousand-mile border."

"Indeed!" Lin Xiaosu exhaled deeply, raising his gaze, looking far into the depths of the South Sea where the skies and the ocean meet.

Abroad is blood and storm, domestically it's peaceful now.

People can be thankful to be born in the soil of Daxia, but mustn't be optimistic.

At least Lin Xiaosu knows very well, Daxia absolutely cannot become an area forgotten by the ancient wilderness bandits, quite the opposite, Daxia will be the place the ancient wilderness bandits want to enter the most.

Why make such a judgment, some past things have brought him this understanding.
