Chapter 801
The Realm of Saints! Eternal Slayers!
This was precisely the special Daoist charm that Jiang Shu obtained from the forbidden laws.
After much contemplation, he was finally able to put it into practice.
"Again."
Jiang Shu stepped forward, and saw the orc venerable one roar to the sky and immediately pounce on him, wanting to fight Jiang Shu in a physical battle.
boom!
The two clashed, and Jiang Shu unleashed a powerful punch, his power reaching a radiant sublimation, shattering the right hand of the orc venerable before him.
The next instant, the forbidden magic directly struck the orc venerable's body.
The orc venerable's body trembled violently, and the various laws and Dao auras rapidly weakened.
He couldn't maintain the forbidden Daoist aura for long; he could barely sustain it for a few breaths.
However, in this realm, victory can be decided in just a few breaths.
Jiang Shu suddenly attacked, his right fist striking the orc's abdomen. A crisp cracking sound was heard as the orc's abdomen snapped open, spraying out countless droplets of blood mist.
The orc continued to roar, seemingly wanting to recover immediately as before.
However, under the influence of the forbidden Taoist chants, its restorative effect is negligible.
Jiang Shu grinned, and finally seized the opportunity to suddenly tap the orc's forehead with a finger.
Boom!
A crisp knocking sound rang out, and the orc shuddered all over. Not only his physical body was injured, but he also suffered a wound and immediately lost consciousness.
In an instant, the orc lord, now only half his original form, collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Jiang Shu suppressed his injuries, grabbed him with one hand, and then returned to the starships.
At the same time, the others began to take action, killing and wiping out the numerous orcs on the starship.
Before the Venerable One, even though these orcs possessed innate laws, it was of no use, and they were easily slaughtered.
On the main ship, Fang Zhenghua rushed over, raised his hand, bowed, and said:
"Thank you, Venerable One, for saving our lives!"
"It's alright. Since this area is still within our territory, it's only natural that we would help you if we found you being harassed by orcs."
Jiang Shu smiled and nodded, saying, "Your ship is too badly damaged. Go back first and repair it."
"Yes."
Fang Zhenghua nodded repeatedly, thinking that he must ask those mechanical races to help with the repair and cleaning this time, otherwise he really couldn't put his mind at ease, what if he was tricked again?
"Venerable Jiang, there is something I need to report to you."
"Oh?"
Jiang Shu feigned curiosity and asked, "What is it? Please tell me."
"As you probably know, those orcs are the most difficult to get rid of. Once they land on a ship, they can multiply into a whole bunch."
“I was worried about this before, so I asked a venerable one to help me keep an eye on things. However, he didn’t find anything. As it turns out, you saw it too.”
"On my ship, we encountered several dens of orcs. If you hadn't arrived with your men, we would probably be dead."
"It seems the person you're looking for is colluding with those orcs. Who is he?"
"Haitian is a venerable figure of the Great Serpent Clan."
"Haitian?"
Jiang Shu narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a knowing look. "Don't worry, we will handle this matter naturally."
"Thank you! Thank you!"
Fang Zhenghua expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
Soon, they followed the direction of the torch and returned to the Mingkuang Star Sector.
The fact that Fangzheng's fleet had become so disheveled attracted a lot of attention, especially when people saw Jiang Shu carrying a beastman venerable, which shocked them greatly.
"Holy crap, could we have run into orcs?"
"The kid is lucky; it was probably Venerable Jiang who took action and resolved the situation."
"It's a miracle I came back alive!"
After everyone discussed the matter, Jiang Shu made arrangements and then returned directly to the office of the three clans in the area.
"nailed it?"
"nailed it."
Elder Lei laughed loudly and quickly led them inside.
Jiang Shu immediately noticed another figure at the location.
The figure was nearly seventy or eighty meters long, covered in a blue glow, its long body coiled up, surrounded by numerous killing formations and suppressing forces.
That was none other than Hai Tian, the Great Serpent Clan member who was helping Fang Zhenghua search for the Sage.
"Is this the python?"
Jiang Shu looked him up and down, then sneered.
"It wasn't me! You've arrested the wrong person! You've arrested the wrong person!"
The giant snake began to frantically beg for mercy, but the surrounding forces held it firmly in place, preventing it from moving.
Jiang Shu stepped inside, coldly gazing at the sea and sky, and then asked, "Are you searching for those beastmen for Fang Zhenghua?"
"It wasn't me, it's a misunderstanding!"
The giant snake immediately shook its head and begged for mercy.
Although he was a Venerable One, under the suppression of absolute power, his realm was no different from that of an ant.
Jiang Shu scoffed and said, "What a joke! I just met Fang Zhenghua and eliminated many of the orcs on his ship. Wasn't that something you did on purpose?"
Hai Tian's expression changed drastically, his pupils contracted sharply, and he fell silent.
Jiang Shu tossed the corpse of the orc venerable one forward.
"Look, this is your companion, isn't it? I've already captured him. If you don't talk now, I'll search his soul first, and then I'll search yours!"
Jiang Shu's voice was extremely cold.
Upon hearing the words "soul search," Hai Tian's expression changed drastically, and he stammered, "I...I..."
He stammered, as if telling the truth was even more painful than undergoing the soul-searching process.
Jiang Shu sneered and attacked again.
In an instant, he broke free of the restraints on the orc, and with a grab, forcefully extracted the orc's soul.
Without the protection of a physical body, even the soul of a Venerable One appears extremely fragile.
The orc venerable's soul was extracted, but he still appeared dazed and confused, because Jiang Shu had just used the same method on him!
"Let's search your soul."
Elder Lei spoke up!
The next moment, Jiang Shu directly embedded one of his hands into the soul of this beastman venerable, and a continuous stream of memories surged forth!
Of course, these memories are of little use; all they do is eat and kill, as if this is the only memory in an orc's life.
As time progressed, this orc gradually grew stronger, gathering seven or eight vassals and beginning to fight against other orcs.
Ten!
One hundred!
A thousand!
Ten thousand!
He gathered a large number of orcs together, and the orc who had left behind the Venerable One became the leader of hundreds of thousands of orcs.
Not long before, this orc saw the signal coming from the torch and immediately decided to launch a massive attack. In the subsequent memory, Hai Tian, a member of the great serpent clan, approached this orc venerable and reached a deal.
"Alright, I knew you were here!"
Jiang Shu stared coldly at the distant sea and sky, and said, "Who told you to do this?"
The giant serpent clansman, Hai Tian, trembled all over, not daring to speak, simply out of fear of violating a taboo.
Jiang Shu glanced at him and continued searching his soul.
After that, my memories were limited to the orc's killing and plundering.
Jiang Shu frowned, just about to give up on Soul Search, when suddenly, a peculiar fluctuation arose in his heart.
The fluctuations were strange and unusual, which made him feel inexplicably surprised.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
At this moment, Jiang Shu seemed to hear a series of angry roars.
The roar was very similar to the orcish roar he had just heard, yet it was also different, being more powerful and resonant, as if it came from another world.
"This……"
Jiang Shu's expression changed slightly, and suddenly he trembled as he realized that he was suddenly in a wasteland.
wilderness?
Jiang Shu immediately realized that he had probably encountered something, and his mind had been forcibly pulled into this space, or perhaps it was a dream.
He looked up abruptly and saw something as enormous as a mountain or even a planet rushing and slaughtering in the distance.
The figure was enormous, also entirely green, and surrounded by countless orcs.
These orcs shouted and roared simultaneously, venting their emotions and desire to fight.
That being, as large as a planet, stood at their center.
That being wielded a giant axe, constantly slaughtering all living beings, whether human, insectoid, or spirit, as if venting its anger and pleasure!
Jiang Shu's pupils suddenly contracted as he fell into deep thought.
The enormous figure suddenly turned its head and glanced at him.
And in that one glance, Jiang Shu trembled violently, feeling a terrifying aura rushing towards him.
He seemed to see countless orcs bowing and worshipping, offering sacrifices amidst the carnage.
That's faith!
These powers of faith flowed rapidly into the body of that being, which was as large as a planet.
The colossal being, as large as a planet, roared to the sky, as if responding to the ordinary orcs.
A few words suddenly popped into Jiang Shu's mind.
"Eternal Slayer!"
"A saint of the orc race!"
Jiang Shu felt the overwhelming pressure of a saint for a moment, but he managed to resist it.
His gaze was fixed on the eternal warrior.
As he stared directly at him, the eternal warrior at the saint level turned his gaze away, seemingly abandoning his attention.
"call……"
Jiang Shu suddenly exhaled a breath of stale air, his expression changed drastically, and sweat poured down his forehead.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the place of guard, where he was met with curious gazes from many venerable ones.
"what happened to you?"
Elder Lei immediately spoke up with concern and warned those around him to prevent anyone from doing anything behind his back.
"me……"
Jiang Shu pondered for a moment, his face grim, and then said directly, "I may have seen one of the five saints in this small universe, the Eternal Slayer."
"What!?"
The venerable ones present were all greatly shocked.
A saint in this microcosm?
What they are most curious about right now is what those five sages are like.
Saints are the top combat forces in a universe.
Upon hearing these words, the Mechanical Race Venerable immediately spoke up.
"I suggest, Venerable Jiang, that you recount what you just witnessed to us, so that we may be able to analyze and understand the possibilities."
Jiang Shu didn't agree immediately. He glanced at Elder Lei, and only after seeing the other nod did he speak:
"Just now, when I was searching the soul, I seemed to have accidentally entered a wasteland."
"In that wasteland, countless orcs roar and fight, and amidst the throngs of orcs stands a being as large as a planet—that is likely the Eternal Slayer."
"I'm certain that it wasn't some kind of memory, because just now, that eternal warrior turned around and glanced at me! That oppressive aura was definitely at the level of a true saint, there's no mistake about it!"
Jiang Shu spoke with unwavering resolve.
He had seen quite a few saints, Dao lords, and demon lords.
The aura just now was definitely at the Saint level.
Upon hearing his account, the many powerful figures present fell silent for a moment.
At the same time, Elder Lei spoke up, "Could it be due to the special nature of the Law of Faith? The orcs in this universe are practically a race purely bound by the Law of Faith, and as their saints, those ordinary orcs and the Eternal Slayers might be connected in some sense."
“Agreed, that is indeed very possible. The laws of faith are extremely special and mysterious, and may have related effects.”
The machine race member standing nearby spoke up.
Regarding the Zerg, it's not that they don't care about beliefs.
In a sense, among the three races, only the human race has some knowledge of the laws of faith, but only a superficial understanding!
After all, the Machine Race and the Zerg do not need to rely on faith to maintain cohesion; they rely on extreme worship of their own Mother or Queen.
Jiang Shu fell silent. "Then why did I inexplicably see that Eternal Slayer there? I am not his follower. Moreover, I just searched his soul and learned that even those orcs could only see his figure occasionally. It was impossible for him to see it so clearly and receive a corresponding response."
Hearing this, the Venerable Ones fell silent for a moment.
There was nothing they could do; they didn't know what had happened either.
The difference between a Venerable One and a Saint is simply too great.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Shu looked at the giant serpent Hai Tian in the distance. Without further hesitation, he said directly, "Tell me everything you know, or don't blame me for searching your soul!"
He spoke sharply, but Hai Tian remained silent, as if his mouth had been gagged.
"Good good..."
Jiang Shu's eyes suddenly changed, and he stepped forward, pressing his hand directly onto the giant python's head.
At this moment, the giant python's cultivation was completely sealed, and it could not unleash even a fraction of its strength. Jiang Shu pressed down on its head, and in the blink of an eye, its soul was forcibly pulled out.
puff!
A wisp of divine soul was ripped out, and the giant python staggered to the ground, its body trembling violently. Without any special restraints around it, the python had likely already begun to rampage. (End of Chapter)
