Chapter 875: A Thousand Miles of Scorched Earth
More than a dozen people in the main hall are all important figures in the entire Xuan Realm, seeing the young man running in in a hurry, he only felt that he was out of place, Han Chuang glared at the young man, and scolded: "What's the big deal, what kind of body is it in a panic, isn't it just on fire?"
The young man's face turned pale, panting, he couldn't care too much, and he arched his hand to Han Chuang and said, "Patriarch Han, the fire area this time is too large, and half of the sky is red, go and take a look!"
Everyone's expressions changed, it only rained heavily yesterday, why did the mountains and forests catch fire today. It is not a big deal that the mountains and forests are on fire, and it is not uncommon for many farmers to burn fire dung in late autumn.
However, looking at the young man's anxious appearance, this time the fire was afraid that it was not simple, everyone hesitated slightly, then got up and left the main hall, and more than a dozen people came to the door of the main hall, and their expressions couldn't help but become solemn.
I saw that the northern night sky had been turned blood-red by the firelight, and from such a distance, you could see the flames in the sky, and then the firelight, and you could see the billowing smoke.
Everyone is a discerning person, looking at the situation of this fire, you can guess that this fire has spread to a range of at least dozens of miles, so that the fire cannot be extinguished at all, and you can only wait for the vegetation in the area covered by the fire to burn out.
"This fire is so strange, how can there be such a large area, if I remember correctly, there is a small river in the middle of that location, it stands to reason that the fire can't cross the river, and it just rained yesterday......" Zhu Tianyao said with a solemn expression.
That place happened to be in the sphere of influence of their Zhu family, and this fire would definitely cause them a lot of losses, and the eyes that looked at the Han clan became unfriendly.
"This fire must have been caused by man, otherwise it would never be so ......big," Han Chuang frowned and said coldly.
Han Shaozong's expression suddenly moved, and he immediately affirmed this guess, and sneered: "What my father said is that this fire must have been caused by man, I dare to conclude that it was definitely Xiao Cheng's doing, except for him, no one would do such a thing."
Hehe, it seems that he is poor in donkey skills, suffered a loss, can't get out, and doesn't dare to come to the door, so he has to set fire to the mountain to vent his anger, it's really pitiful!"
"It seems that this is probably the case, I also said how capable he is, it turns out that he is just a coward, he will only sprinkle his anger on these four or five, and burn a mountain forest, what effect does it have on our Martial Sect?" Gao Changxiao showed a look of disdain, and as he spoke, he glanced at Han Chuang.
This is not only to satirize Xiao Cheng, but also to the Han family, such a waste, the Han family has not been caught, doesn't it mean that the Han family is even more incapable.
How could Han Chuang not hear the meaning of Gao Changxiao's words, he snorted coldly, but he didn't refute, he didn't catch Xiao Cheng, it was their Han family's mistake, so he couldn't speak.
"Let him burn it, anyway, it's just a loss of some wood, and after burning, we can still use this to reclaim some land, hehe!" Han Shaozong sneered.
"Hmph, standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, that's the scope of my Zhu family, it's our Zhu family's forest, you definitely don't feel distressed! It's not all because you fired that kid!"
Zhu Tianyao snorted coldly, turned his head and instructed his entourage: "You go back quickly, organize people to clean up the fire and bring it out, so as to prevent the fire from continuing to expand!"
"Shaozong, you go and organize some people to help Patriarch Zhu extinguish the fire, it's better to catch that evil seed!" Han Chuang looked at Han Shaozong and commanded solemnly. Han Shaozong thought for a moment and took the order to leave.
At this moment, everyone didn't realize the severity of the matter, which year there would not be a few fires in the Xuan Realm, it was just the loss of some wood. I didn't realize that they were not to blame for their strict sex, but only to blame them for being isolated from the outside world for hundreds of years, and there was no scientific common sense at all.
Xiao Cheng set fire to the mountain unexpectedly, the situation was better than he imagined, he set fire to the mountain to deplete the oxygen of the Xuan Realm, but he ignored one point, the smoke is more lethal than the lack of oxygen.
After the autumn rains, the fire burns the mountain, and the smoke is billowing out, I am afraid that there is no need to exhaust the oxygen here, and the smoke alone can smoke the people here into bacon jerky.
The amount is small and not a gentleman, no poison and no husband, how can he be satisfied with only burning one place, and continue to burn the mountain in another place, so that Wu Zong will be in pain, the pain will be piercing, and let Wu Zong know that it is powerful, so that Wu Zong can be forced to bow his head.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night, the people of the entire Xuan Realm were panicked, looking at the fire in the sky, they couldn't sleep, the high-level of the Wuzong mobilized the people to control the fire, but they couldn't stop Xiao Cheng from setting fire to the mountain.
Throughout the night, the Xuan Realm was full of fire, and the firelight illuminated the night sky like day, and the True Martial Xuan Realm, which had been calm for hundreds of thousands of years, ushered in an irreversible disaster, this time the disaster was more dangerous than the three sects joining forces to kill the Martial Sect, and it had shaken the foundation of the Martial Sect.
And this ...... This is just the beginning......
The True Martial Xuan Realm is the last habitat of the Martial Sect, and it is impossible to leave the Martial Realm, so it can only survive here, once this place is destroyed, the Martial Sect will be cornered, and even the Manzong will be destroyed and disappear in the dust of history.
The first rays of the morning sun sprinkled in the Xuan Realm, the rolling mountains of the Xuan Realm were shrouded in smoke, and the sun in the east seemed a little dim and weak, unable to penetrate the smoke that diffused it, and the entire Xuan Realm was filled with smoke after the fire, which made it extremely uncomfortable to breathe.
From the sky, the Xuan Realm was already full of holes, and more than a dozen places that had suffered from fires had turned into pitch-black scorched earth, some of the fires were weak and thick smoke was billowing out, and some were still burning.
Xiao Cheng stood on a scorched tree, looked at the masterpiece of the night, and sneered: "Don't let the master go out, huh, you will cry and shout and beg the master to go out!"
Xiao Cheng's figure flashed, and in a blink of an eye, he appeared in another mountain forest, and there were more than a dozen samurai dressed as farmers gathered in the col, and after a night of firefighting, their faces were blackened, and they looked extremely wolf.
Seeing Xiao Cheng suddenly appear, everyone was stunned, and cast a curious look at this young man who served a little strangely, and then his expression changed: "It's him, it's him, it's him who wants to be arrested, catch him and reward him with ten thousand taels, don't let him run away!"
More than a dozen samurai dressed as farmers rushed up and rushed towards Xiao Cheng with their portable weapons. Xiao Cheng tilted his head, although everyone in the Xuan Realm practiced martial arts, the strength of these farmers was limited after all.
Xiao Cheng looked at the farmers who rushed up and smiled faintly, and helped the wind with his hand, turning three thousand swords into three thousand, hundreds of sword qi were generated out of thin air, and rushed towards more than a dozen farmers with a roar, puff puff,
More than a dozen farmers died, and the others fell to the ground, screaming again and again, looking at Xiao Cheng on the hill in horror.
Xiao Cheng stood on a stone, looked down at the scaly farmer below, and laughed: "If you want to catch Lao Tzu to receive the reward, you have to weigh your strength first!"
Xiao Cheng found this group of farmers who didn't have much ability to resist, naturally not to show off their might, if they really wanted to kill people, these people were already dead.
"Listen, you help me bring a message to the top level of the Martial Sect, if you want me to stop, there are three conditions, first, hand over Han Shaozong, tie Han Shaozong and give it to me. Second, hand over 10,000 high-grade spirit stones or equivalent property. Third, organize 100,000 people to kowtow and send me out of the Xuan Realm!
In addition, do you know why I want to set fire to the mountain? tell you the truth...... Xiao Cheng coldly told these people about the conditions, and explained the principle that burning the mountain and consuming oxygen can suffocate everyone in the Xuan Realm.
In doing so, he wanted to spread the conditions and scientific common sense through these people, not only to the high-level of the Martial Sect, but also to make everyone known.
When all the civilians knew that they would soon be suffocated in the Xuan Realm, they must be afraid, no one wanted to die, and the people of the entire Xuan Realm would riot because of this, and put pressure on the upper echelons of the Martial Sect, and then the Martial Sect would be in chaos, and only in this way could he pry the entire Xuan Realm with his own strength.
And he also announced the conditions he prescribed, these conditions sound very harsh, but compared to the death of the entire Xuan Realm, these conditions are nothing.
Even if the upper echelons of Wuzong are unwilling, the people living here do not want to die together, but instead become his help, and they are not afraid that Wuzong will not compromise.
After listening to Xiao Cheng's story, everyone's faces changed greatly, and they didn't dare to come out, and even the screams stopped, it turned out that Xiao Cheng set fire to the mountain in order to suffocate all the people in the Xuan Realm here, not just to vent his anger.
Everyone shuddered, and Xiao Cheng's eyes completely changed, just like looking at a demon......
Xiao Cheng said that, disappeared on the hill, continued to look for another group of people, and spread his words, he never worried that Wuzong would not bow to him, now every qiē is under his control, and even the entire Wuzong millions of lives are saved in his hands.
Zhenwu Mountain is a majestic mountain, the houses and pavilions are lined up one after another, climbing step by step, from low to high, the more sparse the palace, but the more magnificent and gorgeous, here is the center of the entire martial arts.
In a magnificent hall, there were dozens of high-powered martial arts powerhouses sitting in two rows, each of them had an extremely unsightly face, everyone couldn't sleep peacefully last night, and the entire Xuan Realm was restless by Xiao Cheng's stirring up.
"What the hell do you guys come up with, let this evil seed continue to burn, it's not a matter after all, although there is not much loss, but you can't be led by his nose, hundreds of people died last night just by fighting the fire......" Gao Changxiao said coldly, breaking the peace in the hall.
"This evil seed is elusive, we sent hundreds of people to arrest him last night, but they couldn't find any trace of him, it's difficult to catch him......" Han Chuang shook his head helplessly, only then did he know that Xiao Cheng was so difficult to deal with.
At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as a farmer rushed into the temple in a panic, sweating profusely, apparently rushing here as fast as he could.
The middle-aged man knelt down on the main hall with a puff and shouted, "Ladies and gentlemen, great calamity is coming, great calamity is coming...... And the thief said......"
The middle-aged man explained what Xiao Cheng said as quickly as he could, and before the middle-aged farmer finished speaking, everyone in the hall stood up, their faces changed greatly, you look at me, I look at you, they all showed shocked eyes, and the whole hall was immediately silent.
"What? you say it again......" Han Chuang slapped the table, and the wooden table suddenly fell apart, and he looked at the farmer with wide eyes and rage, completely unable to believe that this qiē was real.
"How is this possible? It's just a matter of burning a few forests, and it can also put our entire Martial Sect to death?" Zhu Tianyao frowned and muttered to himself.
Everyone's thoughts are roughly the same as Zhu Tianyao, just burning a few forests, how can it cause such a consequence, but Xiao Cheng doesn't seem to be telling lies, otherwise Xiao Cheng has no reason to burn mountains everywhere, if this is the case, the entire Wuzong is in danger.
At this moment, everyone knew that the little grasshopper they didn't look at all had turned up a stormy wave, and it was a vicious and desperate plan, and if it burned like this, Wuzong would definitely be destroyed, which was a crisis even more terrifying than the joint killing of the three sects.
Han Shaozong was stunned and froze in place, his face changed again and again, he never put Xiao Cheng in his eyes, Xiao Cheng's strength was not as good as him, his strategy was not as good as him, he was not in an order of magnitude at all, and now he found out that he was very wrong, Xiao Cheng's desperate plan was so vicious, and the entire Wuzong was counted.
Although he has a lot of status in the Xuan Realm, and even has the reputation of being a genius on the first day, he is the strongest person who is most likely to ascend to the position of the sect master, but if it really develops to the point of life and death of the Martial Sect, the entire Martial Sect will definitely hand him over, even if the Han family has a great cause, it will not be able to stop this trend.
"Who else knows this news?" Han Shaozong's mind turned, and he looked at the farmer and asked coldly.
"Many people know it, and now it has spread, and those who know the news are all afraid, your lordships are going to make decisions for us!" said the farmer, bowing his head respectfully and praying.
Han Shaozong took a few steps back, his face turned pale, Xiao Cheng's move undoubtedly blocked his back road.
Ever since Xiao Cheng entered the Xuan Realm, every qiē fell into his calculations, even if Xiao Cheng's cultivation was not abolished, he didn't think that Xiao Cheng would be able to jump out of his palm.
Now that the exit of the Xuanjie is blocked, Xiao Cheng is the deflated in the urn, but now it seems that where is this catching turtles in the urn, it is completely luring wolves into the room.
Han Chuang snorted coldly, and said sternly: "Don't mess with yourself, the matter has not yet reached the point of no return, this kid is so big that he wants us to kowtow and admit our mistakes."
Back then, the three sects joined forces to kill our Martial Sect, did our Martial Sect ever bow his head, he was a hairy boy like forcing us to kowtow and admit our mistakes? Hehe, it's just wishful thinking.
Now that the matter has come to this, do you still want to stay out of it? As long as we organize enough people to conduct a carpet search, the Xuan Realm is so big, where can he escape?
As long as you catch him, you can solve it with all your might, and with all the power of my martial arts, can't you still catch him as a hairy boy?"
Hearing Han Chuang's words, everyone came back to their senses from the shock, Xiao Cheng's strategy was indeed terrifying, but it had not yet reached the point of no return, as long as Xiao Cheng was captured, it would be solved.
"Yes, yes, what my father said is right, we will organize 40,000 warriors, conduct a carpet search, ten meters alone, sweep the entire Xuan Realm vertically, and ask a few martial artists to fly in the sky to prevent him from flying away, we will definitely be able to catch him!" Han Shaozong's face was slightly pale, as if he had grasped the last straw, and hurriedly built a road.

[Kavin, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting for a long time, there is only one change, and I will make up for it twice tomorrow!]
