Chapter 22 You Are All Ants

?When Shi Long released his immortal realm qi, the entire place fell into silence. One could even hear a pin drop.

There were over 30 cultivators that came for the said treasure; the weakest among them was at the spirit king realm ninth stage, with the most powerful being the envoy at the divine spirit realm first stage.

Most cultivators are rouge, and some come from families; different powers were standing on the same side because of one factor, greed, the misinformation of a treasure that can boost cultivation and realms, they, without analyzing the message, came to check not knowing it will be their doom. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶

When these people first came, they saw a formation shielding the inside, but they could break it since some are strong and can discern the weak points. Still, before they even attempted, the shield broke as the Bei family patriarch was seen and the Shi patriarch with fiery eyes as he later spoke.

"Now that everyone is here let's begin the slaughter game."

They were not afraid of what Shi had long said. When they saw how powerful Shi long was, they assumed it was the treasure's doing, and their greed got the better of them as they failed to realize that Shi long was not releasing an aura of the ordinary cultivators.

"Shi Long, I am the envy of the Ju Empire, and the emperor sent me to present this message to the Shi Long of the Shi family."

Yan Chi spoke as he took out a scroll; when the other family members saw the scroll, they cupped their hands, but the rouge cultivators did not even look at the envoy as their eyes were on Shi Long and thinking how to get the treasure for themselves.

"The Emperor of the Ju empire, Ju Han, orders the patriarch of the Shi Family, Shi Long, to submit the treasure that has been reported the Shi family to possess and contribute to the growth and development of the Ju empire and its people."

Yan Chi spoke the words with elegance and authority as if he was the Emperor himself. Still, after he finished speaking, the other powers had eyes of annoyance and disgust as the Ju emperor wanted the treasure all for himself with the pretext of contributing people.

They knew that the Emperor planned not to leave leeway for the Shi family. If they possess such a treasure and stand against him, he will die within years as his hard built will be wiped out; whether the Shi family submits the treasure does not matter as they will still be wiped out. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

" Hahahaha, Ju Han knows how to play with words; My Shi family has contributed until we are the weakest family in the Ju empire. The Emperor felt threatened and slowly killed my family warriors by sending them to the frontline without reinforcements. He also took the lands and businesses he gave us, leaving my Shi family with nothing but our mine, which he also exhausted."

" Yan Chi, tell me, is that not enough contributions?"

Shi Long spoke calmly with his fiery eye-popping down on the envoy. After he became immortal, he used only immortals' ability, which was the sense of the world that allows one to know what happened in a particular world and what caused it.

He used this ability to observe what happened to his family members and comrades, only to find out the Emperor planned all this because he was threatened by how strong the Shi family was.

" Shi Long, it is a capital offense to slander the emperor of the Ju empire punishable by death, and as his representative, I shall enforce this jurisdiction by wiping you and your family."

Yan Chi released his divine spirit energy; the other cultivators were shocked after releasing the strength of this envoy. But suddenly, a cultivator spoke.

"Envoy Yan, I am the Poison king; why don't we ally and share the profits? Of course, you keep the sacred treasure that speeds cultivation, while I will take whatever that left and their corpses."

The cultivator was in black with an odor like poison leaking out. He had black nails; he was the spirit emperor realm eighth stage, his voice sounding heavy as he asked.

"I don't care about anything other than the sacred treasure."

Yan Chi said, waving his hand as if this wasn't even a matter for him to consider. He came for the sacred treasure he thought the Shi family had and did not care about anything else. Not even hundreds of lives will be lost in this battle, and ordinary humans at that.

Hearing this, the Poison King slowly flew forwards as he faced Shi Long; poison began oozing off his sleeves as he spread it out while speaking to the other thirty cultivators in the scene.

"Fellow cultivators, I, as the Poison King, will carry out this punishment as the envoy has sentenced the Shi family to death; and whatever remains after envoy Yan picks will be shared equally among us, do you agree?"

Some began nodding their heads as they listened to Poison King while stopping when they heard the word equally; this meant that even if one discovers a treasure after the Yan Chi had chosen, then they will fight it among themselves and determine the strongest, with this conclusion in mind, many began smiling as the Poison King shouted.

"Charge"

RUMBLE!

The instant Poison King spoke, the surrounding cultivators instantly vanished as if they were never there; Poison King, with his already attacking motion, was stuck in time as he stood there without realizing that he was just in an already stopped space and time; this was also one of the capabilities of an immortal, and they can revive after they die a total often-times, granting them ten extra lives.

Shi patriarch strolled in the space as he tapped the Poison king on his shoulders, the body of the Poison king already reacting as it began assuming a swelling state. Shi Long came closely to Yan Chi as he continued time; Yan Chi, who was floating in the air with power and arrogance, became stifled as the next instant, this 20 plus cultivators all vanished, and the Spirit Emperor realm Poison King just exploded before he saw Shi Long-standing before him with a calm look on his face.

"You think because you are at the Divine Spirit realm means you are strong? I would have told you higher realms even at the immortal realm, but it will be useless information as the dead since you will be dying. And if you think a puppet can harm me by releasing it, what a naive thought."

Yan Chi was shocked as Shi Long came closer while speaking and calling his realm weak; the feeling of being weak even when at the Divine spirit realm means that Shi Long must have gone higher than the puppet or even the Emperor.

"If you think I am weak, why don't you attack."

Yan Chi mustered all his courage as he asked in an afraid tone. It turns out the Shi family patriarch was at the sage realm, or maybe higher. His face became even more ugly as he connected the dots to the same treasure he came to claim; It must be the work of the treasure was what was going in his head as his greed rose to a whole new height imagining if he had such powers.

Shi Long did not reply, but he looked at the guard standing next to Yan Chi as the guard began folding as blood dripped until he became meat. Yan Chi finally became scared as he fell hard to the earth, his voice trembling.

"H..how.. how are you this strong; it...it must be the treasure; hand over the treasure and the Emperor will spare you life and your family, and he will reward you handsomely."

Yan Chi ran out of options as the puppet in his servant's space ring was destroyed with him. And even though he knew he would die, at least he exercised all his options.

"What a fool you truly are; you think I view this broken world as a threat, this world would soon face destruction by the devils, but no need to worry; maybe those beings might help. The only sad thing you will not be alive to witness it."

Shi Long watched as Yan Chi slowly dissipated in thin air with a tap. Shi Long stood up and flew outside the broken planet and spoke authoritatively.

"You are all ants."
