My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration
Chapter 278: Thousand Sieve Earth TreasuryThe current Thousand Sieve City was like a leaking balloon. Its size was constantly shrinking and its shell was becoming thicker and thicker.
The wreckage of the buildings that were pushed inward surged like an ocean wave.
Apart from them and more than twenty Nascent Soul cultivators, all the other Iron Wolf Sect cultivators, including the five thousand wolf cavalry, had been wrapped in debris and crushed into pieces of flesh.
That was an elite force that even the Iron Wolf Sect could not easily train. Losing a thousand was enough to make people feel the pinch. Now, five thousand Iron Wolf Cavalry and a large number of Core Formation cultivators had all died here.
To the Iron Wolf Sect, it would be uncomfortable for a long time to lack such a force.
However, the seven Soul Formation elders of the Iron Wolf Sect did not have the mood to consider the future for the time being.
They flew around the entire internal space and were finally forced back to their original location by the rolling trash.
They placed their last hope on Old Ban.
As fellow Soul Formation cultivators, they did not believe that there was someone who was willing to not leave a way out for themselves to cover for others.
"Damn old man, tell me where it is! Otherwise, I'll kill you right now!"
Surrounded by seven Soul Formation cultivators with killing intent, Old Ban was still smiling happily.
"For this old man to die in Thousand Sieve City and have the few of you accompany me, I'm really fortunate!"
As he spoke, he took out a key and stabbed it into his heart.
The last hidden mechanism in his body circulated crazily, squeezing out his life and stimulating more spiritual qi. He brought the remaining puppets to continue fighting with them.
Finally, under the continuous compression of space, their activity space completely disappeared.
In the end, Old Ban laughed and swelled up with all the puppets, launching the final self-destruction!
Without any buffer time, the damage caused by the self-destruction of a puppet of the same level or even a cultivator of the same level was completely fatal.
...
On Jiang Li's side, the remaining cultivators of Ink Sect had already gathered in the core secret room under his guidance.
Although they had mechanisms and traps to rely on, they had also suffered heavy losses. There were only slightly more than a hundred people left.
In terms of numbers, it was even more miserable than the village Jiang Li had seen in the illusion world.
"Is everyone here? There's no time to lose. I used the Ink Child Decree to activate the Thousand Sieve City's last resort. Now, we can only leave through this secret room. If we delay, we won't be able to leave."
Jiang Li sensed the situation in Thousand Sieve City and urged them to count the number of people.
"Granny Zi, Grandpa Ban has yet to come out!"
Zi Yao stood at the entrance of the core secret room, unwilling to leave no matter what.
"Zi Yao, come back. Old Ban has already made up his mind. Let's go!"
The Ink Child Decree was actually a token of authority produced by the Thousand Mechanisms Sphere. It could control the entire Thousand Sieve City.
However, after today, this token would probably only have a symbolic meaning.
Jiang Li reached into the Thousand Mechanisms Sphere and took out a token.
However, the others could not see the spiritual ball. They only thought that Jiang Li waved his hand in the air and took out the token.
He injected spiritual qi into it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe core chamber, which was made of thousands of rectangular blocks like a Rubik's Cube, was completely sealed. Then, it moved horizontally and directly collided with the surrounding wall.
Wherever the secret room passed, all kinds of walls automatically unfolded, forming a passageway that could be passed through by the Rubik's Cube.
After the secret room left, the walls quickly closed again, cutting off the possibility of others escaping.
The matrix room passed through layers of obstructions and finally rushed out of Thousand Sieve City.
Looking back, the entire Thousand Sieve City had already turned into a huge mechanical ball that was still moving and shrinking inward.
A small number of Iron Wolf Sect cultivators outside were still attacking the large mechanical ball crazily.
However, there were too few cultivators in the outside world, and the intensity of the attacks was far from enough. Even if dozens of flying ships continuously attacked, it was still useless against the Thousand Sieve City's huge ball that had entered the Thousand Sieve Earth Treasury state.
When Thousand Sieve City shrunk to its limit, the interior had already become solid, firmly suppressing the remaining Soul Formation cultivators on the spot.
Swoosh!
At this moment, the surface of the Thousand Sieve Earth Treasury Ball suddenly shook. A huge force erupted from within.
When she saw this, Granny Zi could not help but lower her head in dejection. Zi Yao and the others also shed tears.
In the mechanical ball, Elder Ban and all his puppets self-destructed at the same time, giving seven Soul Formation cultivators a fatal blow in the sealed space.
Under the circumstances of being sealed by the Thousand Sieve Earth Treasury and suffering such a blow, even the ability to wait for the sect's rescue was lost.
The entire ball began to spin and finally sank into the ground.
A bottomless hole was left behind.
Then, the array formation buried around the city was activated. The ground around the huge hole began to collapse continuously. A large amount of soil and rocks tilted down, completely burying the huge hole.
Thousand Sieve City brought a large number of people from the Iron Wolf Sect and buried themselves underground.
This city itself was the largest and most dangerous trap.
Not only did the Iron Wolf Sect fail to gain anything, they instead suffered heavy losses. This outcome made the cultivation world of the Eastern Region greatly surprised.
Everyone felt that Ink Sect was fish on the chopping board. They were completely defenseless against the invaders.
No one expected them to play such a trick. They directly cut off one of the Iron Wolf Sect's claws.
As for the cultivators of Ink Sect, who everyone thought had been completely killed, they silently squeezed into the matrix room and flew west under the cover of the illusion.
"Granny Zi, I've obtained the Ink Child Decree. Previously, you said that the disciples of the Mo family should obey the Ink Child Decree in hand. Do these words still count?"
Jiang Li's words were a little inappropriate.
The other party had just encountered such a calamity that was close to extermination.
It was a little inappropriate to rush the other party to listen to his orders.
However, Ink Sect was in no position to be angry. If not for Jiang Li, they would have died in their own city.
Even if they did not die, they would become prisoners. In the future, their life and death would be decided by the enemies. That kind of life was simply worse than death.
"Alliance Leader Jiang, don't worry. You saved us, and Ink Sect owes you a huge favor. You even obtained the Ink Child Decree. Even if you want to become the Ink Sect Master, there's no problem."
"This is our merit token. It represents the merit of 630,000 from killing the Armored Trolls. Please keep it!"
Granny Zi knew very clearly what Jiang Li wanted. It was none other than those merit points.
At this point, she might as well directly take out the merit token coveted by a large number of Eastern Region sects.
After all, for a long time to come, their Ink Sect's fate would be tied to Jiang Li's words.
They had to show a proper attitude now that they were submitting to him.
Jiang Li took the token.
It did not feel heavy in his hand, but it represented a considerable amount. On it was the hard work of an entire sect.
Jiang Li put away the merit token. The first step of the Great Mountain Alliance stepping into the Eastern Region to join the Divine Judgment Hall was finally completed.
It was not in vain that he had ventured into the tiger's den and worked hard for seven to eight days.
Next, he gave the other party something.
It was the Ink Child Decree he had taken out from the Thousand Mechanisms Sphere.
Thousand Sieve City was already destroyed, and this token no longer had any value to Jiang Li. He was not interested in bringing these hundred people to rebuild Ink Sect, so he returned this token to them as a favor.
"I said before that as long as you join the Great Mountain Alliance, I will not give you any restrictions and will protect your safety. This sentence is still effective."
"Previously, without the Ink Child Decree, you were unable to choose the Sect Master. Now, it's returned to its original owner. It's best to choose a leader as soon as possible and rebuild the sect."
Granny Zi looked at the token in her hand and then looked at the indifferent Jiang Li, and she sighed endlessly in her heart.
In the eyes of others, the Ink Child Decree that they treated as a treasure was only a useless token. In the eyes of the other party, their own rules were probably not worth mentioning.
Or perhaps, to Jiang Li, the position of Ink Child was only a burden and had no value.
After all, Jiang Li had the Scripture Storage Valley and the Great Mountain Alliance behind him, so how could he take a fancy to them?
Of course, even if he returned the useless Ink Child Decree to them, the Thousand Mechanisms Sphere was out of the question. This thing was a good treasure. With it as the core, he might be able to build another mechanical city.
The flying speed of the matrix room was not slow.
The invisibility effect under the illusion was quite good too.
They headed west and quickly arrived at the location where they had arranged to meet the higher-ups of the Great Mountain Alliance.
The elders, protectors, and hidden cultivators were already waiting there.
The sect's main force and seven higher-ups were all buried underground. The Iron Wolf Sect cultivators could not even save them in time.
How could they have the mood to seal the Endless Mountain Range?
Even if they still had the intention, they no longer had the ability when all the Soul Formation cultivators who went out to battle had fallen.
The reinforcements had yet to arrive. If they offended someone at this time, wouldn't they be courting death?
Therefore, they did not encounter any obstructions along the way.
"Jiang Li, you're finally back!"
When the Scripture Storage Valley's Martial Ancestor saw Jiang Li return, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
This Alliance Leader's action of putting himself in danger made him very dissatisfied. If anything happened to him, what would he do?
However, when he saw the hundred plus Ink Sect cultivators following behind Jiang Li, he could not beat up this disobedient disciple on the spot.
Of course, he could restrain himself, but someone could not.
"After becoming the Alliance Leader, you've grown capable!"
"You even dare to go alone for such a dangerous thing. If this happens again, I'll let you lie in the Rejuvenation Hall for a month!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA burly cultivator covered in beast tattoos walked angrily to Jiang Li.
A hand pinched his shoulder with more than ten times the force of an excavator, holding Jiang Li tightly. Clearly, the owner of this hand wanted to grab him and beat him up.
However, Jiang Li's strength had improved too quickly, and it was already not easy to grasp the limits of his actions.
If he used too little strength, he would not be able to break through the defense of the Overlord Body Art. If he used too much strength, he was afraid that breaking through Jiang Li's defense would cause injuries.
This conflict made the burly cultivator even angrier.
However, when he pressed down on Jiang Li's shoulder that was tougher than steel, he could not help but be surprised.
This young disciple's strength had become much stronger again. His other senior brothers were no longer his match.
If this continued, even as his master, he would probably not be his match.
Fortunately, Jiang Li had obtained the fragment of the Scripture Imparting Hall's stone monument.
From it, they had obtained a cultivation method that was greatly beneficial to the cultivators of the Beast Blood Diagram. His cultivation had already stagnated for many years, so perhaps he could rely on this to advance further.
The other reason he followed the group here this time was also for the sake of passing that cultivation method to Jiang Li.
"Cough cough, Master, calm down! Calm down!"
This person was none other than Jiang Li's good master, Elder He of the Demon Vanquishing Hall.
After he finished dealing with many matters in the Great Mountain Region, Jiang Li suddenly entered the battlefield of the Iron Wolf Sect and Ink Sect.
The situation was chaotic and could start a fight at any moment.
The various large sects urgently mobilized a group of people to assist. Elder He followed the third wave of ships to this place.
"Forget it, forget it. Be careful in the future and know your limits…"
As he spoke, Elder He could not continue. After all, Jiang Li had indeed done too well.
He could not say that his life was more important than the alliance so he should not put himself at risk.
Although he thought so, he could not say it out loud.
"Take this and board the ship first."
"The friends of Ink Sect can come too. We've prepared medical cultivators and medicinal pills. Let's board the ship and rest."
After both sides completed the negotiations, the higher-ups of the Mountain Alliance were all surprised.
Although they had come for Ink Sect's merit points, there were too many competitors. They were new here, and it was not easy to obtain this merit under the watch of many local factions.
If it was them, without fighting the Iron Wolf Sect, it would be impossible for them to reach a consensus with the Ink Sect.
Fighting a sect of this level head-on was really not a good choice for the heavily established sect that had just been established.
To be honest, Jiang Li, the Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Alliance, had always been quite controversial.
However, this important matter concerned whether the Great Mountain Alliance could join the Divine Judgment Hall or not. It was very important.
In the end, it was practically all done by Jiang Li alone. They did not attack or even show themselves.
If it was anyone else, they would definitely be unable to do better than him.
At that time, Shenshan Jianyi, Daoist Wushe, and Master Le Ku had taken a gamble when choosing the Great Mountain Alliance Leader. However, they slowly discovered that they had really made the right choice.
In this cultivation world, some people were really different. They could always create miracles.
Fortunately, their Great Mountain Region had such a young junior.
