At the same time, in a large hall in the imperial city of Imperial Capital, in the Pattern Country, ripples spread out as Amitabha stepped forward. As soon as he appeared, he staggered, and if it weren't for the fact that he was holding onto a dragon carving pillar, he would have long since fallen to the ground.
"The Three Ways to Perish is indeed powerful." A lingering fear still lingered in Mi Tuo's heart.
The Three Ways to Perish's target was originally his clone, but this heaven defying art still caused quite a bit of damage to his main body.
If it wasn't for these injuries, Mi Tuo would have killed Guu Feng even if his cultivation base fell once more. After all, all of his plans had failed many times in front of Guu Feng.
In the thousand years of Mi Tuo's life, he had never made a mistake in all of his schemes. However, ever since he met Guu Feng, he had always suffered failure.
Unlike Mrs. Linglong's Divination Art, what Mi Tuo cultivated should be the Heavenly Dao in Great Vast World.
In Mi Tuo's heart, he was the Heavenly Dao, and the fate of all living beings could be controlled by him. He could use his own Dao to transform into the Heavenly Dao, and use the Heavenly Dao to cultivate.
To Mi Tuo, there was nothing in this world that he didn't dare to scheme against!
"If Guu Feng isn't eliminated, I won't be able to feel at ease!" Mi Tuo was filled with rage, and the dragon carving pillar in his right hand shattered.
Right at this moment, footsteps could be heard from outside the palace. Mi Tuo frowned, but pretended that nothing had happened as he looked toward the entrance of the palace.
The person who walked in quickly from outside the hall was the newly appointed Pattern King, Jiang Fann.
When he saw the dragon pillar that had turned into broken pieces, Jiang Fann looked at Mi Tuo with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Uncle, are... are you alright?" Jiang Fann asked in a probing manner. Within the depths of that seemingly concerned gaze, there was a trace of unintentional resentment.
It was true that he had become a Pattern King. However, regarding the matters in Pattern Country, was there one thing that he could decide?
Currently, a large number of Five Element Clan's cultivators had already moved into the imperial city of the Pattern Country's Imperial Capital. The lowest cultivation base of these Five Element Clan's cultivators was also in the sky realm.
The Imperial City was no longer under Jiang Fann's control, it was no longer under the control of the Pattern Country. To be precise, not only the Imperial City, but also the entire Pattern Country was under the control of the Five Element Clan!
Jiang Fann had wild ambitions. He had coveted the position of the Pattern King for a long time, but he, Jiang Fann, was unwilling to become a puppet of the Pattern King!
For the past few days, Jiang Fann felt more and more that the cultivators of the Five Element Clan who treated him with respect on the surface were all mocking him. He was like a clown, accompanied by the appearance of an emperor, causing others to laugh at him!
He had had enough of these days, and he had enough of them!
His so-called Pattern King was merely a puppet in Mi Tuo's hands, at his mercy!
Even though Mi Tuo's expression was normal, Jiang Fann could guess that he was very angry. He had never seen Mi Tuo act like this in his life.
This made Jiang Fann very happy.
"What is it?" Mi Tuo didn't answer. Instead, he asked Jiang Fann back with a dissatisfied tone.
Jiang Fann raised his eyebrows and hesitated for a moment. Then, he said, "Uncle, is this Pattern Country still ours?"
Hearing Jiang Fann's words, Mi Tuo's frown deepened. He stared at Jiang Fann, as if he wanted to see through Jiang Fann and see what Jiang Fann was thinking.
Being stared at by Jiang Fann, fearing that his thoughts would be seen through, Jiang Fann continued, "Uncle, I have no objections to joining forces with the Five Element Clan to attack the Spirit Country."
"However, there are a lot of cultivators in the Five Element Clan in the Imperial City right now, and each and every one of them has a profound cultivation base. If they suddenly attack us... We..."
As he spoke, Jiang Fann had been carefully observing Amitabha's expression the entire time.
"Don't worry, I won't." Amitabha waved his hand impatiently.
"Uncle..."
"It's all done!" Amitabha's voice suddenly became louder, and his face instantly turned gloomy. That gaze of his even contained killing intent.
Jiang Fann was startled. Looking at the unconcealed killing intent in Mi Tuo's eyes, he suddenly realized that he had never understood this uncle before.
Sensing Mi Tuo's unconcealed killing intent, Jiang Fann realized for the first time that his uncle was actually this strong. The aura that erupted from his body was much stronger than his.
At that moment, Jiang Fann had no doubt that if he continued speaking, Mi Tuo would kill him without hesitation.
In fact, Jiang Fann had already sensed that after he succeeded the throne, Mi Tuo's attitude towards him had changed after he expressed his doubts about Mi Tuo's actions.
Under Mi Tuo's eyes full of killing intent, Jiang Fann lowered his head and slowly retreated.
Jiang Fann only raised his head when he was outside the hall. His face was gloomy, and his back was soaked with sweat.
He walked back in a daze. Only his footsteps echoed in the empty palace.
Jiang Fann suddenly understood why Amitabha helped him push Jiang Ze down from the throne. It was because he couldn't control Jiang Ze.
Mi Tuo chose to let Jiang Ze inherit the throne and become the new king of Pattern Clan because he felt that he would be easier to control than Jiang Ze, and that it would be easier for him to achieve a certain goal.
However, it was a little late for him to understand all of this.
All of this was no longer something he could control. Jiang Fann knew that if he made Mi Tuo feel that he couldn't control himself, he would only end up like Jiang Ze, or even worse than Jiang Ze.
After understanding all of this, Jiang Ze laughed. His laughter echoed throughout the Imperial Palace for a long time.
He, Jiang Fann, thought that he was a heaven warping genius. He, Jiang Fann, thought that he had everything after becoming a Pattern King. Who would have thought that in the end, all of this was just a mirror image? He was just a chess piece in Mi Tuo's hand, a puppet.
At this moment, Mi Tuo heard Jiang Fann's self-deprecating laughter, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Thousands of miles away from Imperial Capital, where Guu Feng was, Guu Feng was gathering the four unconscious elders.
Fortunately, none of them were in danger of dying. It was only because of the seal in their sea of consciousness that they were temporarily unconscious.
Regardless of their own injuries, the divine soul power in Guu Feng's body was divided into four parts and poured into the four elders' bodies under the protection of the Divine Soul Flame.
Guu Feng wanted to break the seal in their sea of consciousness, not because of anything else, but because he was being cautious.
Mi Tuo had already said before he left that he would take Guu Feng's life in the future. Guu Feng had no doubt that once Mi Tuo's cultivation base recovered, he would come to kill him as soon as possible.
Guu Feng wouldn't have too much time left. If he didn't advance his cultivation base to the terrifying level of Mi Tuo before Mi Tuo arrived, his only outcome would be death.
If he died, it would be a conspiracy that would encompass the entire Great Cang. No one would ever know about it, even if it was a conspiracy. Guu Feng didn't know much about it, but he was sure that once Amitabha succeeded, the entire Great Cang will fall into an irrecoverable state.
Therefore, Guu Feng had to let the others know about this. If he died, there was still hope for him to survive.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Guu Feng's entire body was drenched in sweat, and his face was as pale as a sheet of paper. At the same time, he broke the seals in the sea of consciousness of the four men, which was too much of a burden for Guu Feng.
