Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

Chapter 67: Initiating the Slaughter, Eliminating Future Troubles!

Liu Zimo's gaze swept across everyone, capturing every expression.

Especially the twenty or so people who had just gathered around Lou Yuchen, their intentions were clear to Liu Zimo.

In chaotic times like these, these individuals with some talent and strength would not willingly remain under someone else's control.

Given the slightest opportunity, they would jump out to demonstrate their existence.

And now was such a moment.

With the demonic calamity subsiding, a more powerful Golden Body Realm cultivator had emerged in Luozhou City. These people seemed to see hope in overthrowing Lou Yuchen and became restless.

"Mr. Liu, these people behind me have been instigating and speaking ill of you, trying to incite me to challenge you and take your place, to unify Luozhou!"

Although Lou Yuchen no longer spoke, he secretly transmitted this information to Liu Zimo.

Previously, he didn't know that the so-called Advisor Liu mentioned by these people was his savior, Liu Zimo.

He thought that this so-called Advisor Liu from the Military Affairs Department was just as others described, an outsider who had been transferred from the capital, with average cultivation and no foundation, and with an extremely bad character that was unpopular.

This made Lou Yuchen harbor some suspicions.

As local cultivators of Luozhou, how could they let an outsider without roots and average strength come to manage and govern them? Wasn't that nonsense?

But now, upon seeing Liu Zimo, Lou Yuchen realized that he had been deceived and used as a pawn!

Those bastards only told him that Advisor Liu was an outsider who had been transferred from the capital, acting arrogantly and not putting the local cultivators in their eyes.

But they didn't truthfully tell him that this Advisor Liu's cultivation had long surpassed the Golden Body Realm and was far above him!

It was obvious that they were using him as a scapegoat, making him, Lou Yuchen, the sacrificial lamb!

If he hadn't known Liu Zimo and understood his true strength early on...

Then this time, wouldn't Lou Yuchen have fallen into a big trap, and even his life might have been lost here?

A trace of sternness flashed in Lou Yuchen's eyes as he transmitted to Liu Zimo again, asking, "Mr. Liu, should Yuchen take action and deal with these restless individuals?"

Liu Zimo was somewhat surprised when he heard this and looked up at Lou Yuchen.

Indeed, he was the future Martial Saint Yuchen!

Just a few days of mixing in the apocalypse, and he had developed such decisive and ruthless character.

No wonder he was able to unify Luozhou in his previous life, bringing all the forces in Luozhou City under his control.

In comparison, Liu Zimo felt that he had been too gentle and kind to these local forces before.

He had thought that talents were hard to come by, and as long as he showed enough dominance, he could completely subdue these people and use them for his own purposes.

But now it seemed that they didn't know how to cherish the opportunity to save their lives!

Did they really think that the knife in Liu Zimo's hand was not sharp and that he didn't dare to initiate a slaughter?

Liu Zimo shook his head speechlessly.

In the apocalypse, what he hated the most were these backstabbing individuals.

"Since they don't want to live, then let them all die!"

With a thought, Liu Zimo heard the sound of locks clicking.

[Binding successful! Your good brother Li Xintong is online, currently available for binding (23/50).]

[Binding successful! Your good brother Sun Xiaoming is online, currently available for binding (24/50).]

[...]

[Binding successful! Your good brother Zhou You is online, currently available for binding (50/50).]

In just a few breaths, Liu Zimo had bound all twenty or so people, directly filling up the remaining binding slots to the maximum of 50.

Even if these people were going to die, they had to become his leeks first before they could die. Otherwise, wouldn't all his cultivation and soul power go to waste?

"It's true, why not obediently listen and do things, isn't it good to live well? Do you have to force me to harvest leeks?"

Liu Zimo sighed lightly in his heart.

But his actions were swift and merciless.

Raising his right hand slightly, he made a gentle gesture towards the group of twenty or so people gathered together.

Bang!

Bang!

In an instant, a thumb-sized hole appeared on the top of everyone's head.

Blood mixed with white brain matter burst out from the holes.

Thump! Thump!

More than thirty bodies, including Sun Chenghu, Zhao Qian, and several other iron-bodied martial artists, fell to the ground, lifeless. They died without even a scream.

[Your good brother Sun Chenghu harbored ill intentions towards you and met his end under your counterattack. His soul has returned to the heavens!]

[The 'Heaven Thief' innate talent passive has been triggered. You have inherited half of the remaining gifts from your good brother Sun Chenghu before his death. Light Body Technique +50, Martial Arts Cultivation +10, Mental Power +3, Soul Strength +5.]

[Your good brother Sun Chenghu has logged out. Currently available binding targets (49/50).]

[...]

[Your good brother Zhou You has logged out. Currently available binding targets (18/50).]

Almost at the moment of their deaths, Liu Zimo's martial aura and soul aura surged to their limits!

Boom!

Even though Liu Zimo tried his best to control it, a part of his aura still overflowed.

The martial domain and soul domain spread out simultaneously, instantly enveloping the entire platform.

Thump! Thump!

Everyone on the platform, including Lou Yuchen, who had already reached the Golden Body Realm, fell to the ground under the combined suppression of these two different domains, unable to control themselves.

At this moment, they couldn't even stand up straight or lift their heads.

The martial domain suppressed their bodies, while the soul domain intimidated their souls!

From body to mind, they were all completely suppressed by the power unconsciously released by Liu Zimo, feeling unable to move even a bit.

Everyone's hearts were filled with fear, experiencing Liu Zimo's strength and invincibility firsthand.

[It's over! We're going to die!]

[Advisor Liu clearly wants to go on a killing spree!]

[Damn Sun Chenghu and Sun Xiaoming, they didn't listen to advice and insisted on being enemies with Advisor Liu. Now, they've forced Advisor Liu to attack everyone!]

[...]

[As expected, I knew this was a trap!]

[When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked! Now that the demonic calamity is over, the person surnamed Liu couldn't resist eliminating dissidents and has launched a killing spree against us!]

[But how could he be so strong?]

[Just the aura emanating from him completely suppresses all of us. What level of martial realm is this?!]

[...]

Cai Jianghong, Lan Tianbao, Zhao Shijie, and others also sat among the crowd, just as fearful as everyone else, thinking that Liu Zimo was going to attack them.

Because of the "Heaven Thief" ability, their thoughts were all transmitted to Liu Zimo's ears without reservation.

However, at this moment, Liu Zimo had no mood to comfort them.

He needed to concentrate all his attention on absorbing and refining the massive increase in martial cultivation and mental power brought by the thirty-two leeks.

His martial cultivation had already been pushed to the peak of the Embryonic Breath Realm by this accumulation of cultivation that spanned over a hundred years!

His soul cultivation had directly surpassed the Spirit Communication Realm and stepped into a higher level, the Spirit Sea Realm!

The devouring spirit bug, "Yao Lingling," which had been imprisoned in his sea of consciousness, sensed the tremendous changes in his sea of consciousness and flew around in confusion:

"Oh my god!"

"What's going on? Why is this sea of consciousness suddenly expanding rapidly again?!"

"What did this human freak do?"

"Why did his spiritual cultivation and sea of consciousness space experience such a rapid and significant improvement in such a short time?!"

"Didn't they say that the progress of spiritual cultivators' cultivation realm advances slowly, almost in increments of a hundred years?"

"Those illusionary beings in the Illusionary Demon Realm, which one of them doesn't have to wait for dozens or even hundreds of years for a chance to evolve?"

"But this human spiritual cultivator in front of me, how can he continuously explode with improvement more than thirty times in just a few seconds?!"

"Is there any justice in this?!"

"Waaah!"

"At this rate of development, will I never have a chance to break free from this sea of consciousness in my lifetime?!"

"Ah, so annoying!"

"Ancestors, can you see this? If you don't come soon, this human freak will surpass the limits of your control!"

"By then, if you can't establish roots, manipulate spiritual consciousness in his sea of consciousness, how can you save me?!"
