Chapter 598: Taboo Reappears! (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It could be said that among all the Martial Demon Realm experts in the entire Great Wu Empire, these four people were the most outstanding. The prince felt that the four of them had the greatest hope of refining that special area.
He was prepared to choose one of the four.
Rong Sufei was the first to be eliminated by the prince. Although he had always wanted to strengthen the martial pavilion so that it could form a balance with the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, this special region competition was very important.
If he could not take over this special area because of favoritism, it would be a huge loss. Therefore, this time, he would not consider the person behind the other party, except for Xiang Zizhen.
Ever since Rong Sufei lost to Xiang Zizhen last time, he had already been labeled as trash by the prince. Naturally, he would not choose him again.
The Martial Demon Realm of the Mountain God lineage recommended by Chen Yuan was also excluded. The strength of the Mountain God lineage mainly depended on defense and endurance. It could be said that the warriors of the Mountain God lineage were almost invincible among warriors of the same realm.
However, the shortcomings were also very obvious. It was not aggressive enough! This would seem passive. Support might be the most suitable.
The prince was mainly choosing between the sword cultivator at the Martial Demon Realm and the Martial Demon Realm girl who focused on her body. These two were relatively comprehensive. There were no obvious shortcomings.
After careful consideration, the prince chose the Martial Demon Realm youth as the candidate to refine this special area. The others assisted with all their might. In order to prevent these Martial Demon Realm cultivators from not assisting according to his arrangements after entering the special area, the prince formed a taboo on them through the Great Wu Imprint on everyone’s bodies and the fate of the Great Wu Empire!
This shocked everyone. Especially Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen.
Although before this, the two of them had already expected that the prince would have a powerful backup plan to prevent these people who had entered the special area from not assisting.
At the same time, Xiao Shi had expected the other party to use the Great Martial Imprint to form a restriction. But no matter what, he did not expect the prince could actually form a taboo through the Great Martial Imprint and the fate of the Great Martial Empire.
Taboo and laws were something only demigods could do. Even Daolords were unable to form taboos and rules. It was clearly impossible for the prince to be a demigod. There were no demigods in the entire Great Wu Empire. However, through the Great Martial Imprint and the fate of the Great Martial Empire, he had directly formed a taboo on them. This was very terrifying!
Once the taboo was formed, there was no way to go against it! It was also impossible to remove the taboo. In this way, Xiao Shi could only assist like the others. All of them at the Martial Demon Realm could sense the taboo on their bodies.
[Taboo 1: Everyone must help Zhuo Ou (Young Sword Cultivator) refine the area with all their might. They are not allowed to refine the area on their own. As long as Zhuo Ou is alive, Zhuo Ou can only refine it alone.]
[Taboo 2: Do not attack people from the Great Wu Empire.]
[Taboo 3: You are not allowed to join forces with anyone other than the Great Wu Empire, or make any agreements or transactions.]
[Taboo 4: If Zhuo Ou dies, the others must do their best to assist the next chosen person in the region refinement, and so on.]
There were a total of four taboos. The second taboo was to prevent people from killing each other or someone from killing Zhuo Ou. The third taboo was to prevent people from colluding with the people of the three great domains to kill their own people. The fourth taboo was to prevent Zhuo Ou from dying and prevent others from refining this special area.
After all, in the first taboo, anyone other than Zhuo Wu was forbidden from refining this area. If there was no fourth taboo, once Zhuo Ou died accidentally, no one else would be able to refine this area. Then, their Great Wu Empire would be completely hopeless.
With the fourth taboo, once Zhuo Ou died, the second-in-command, the white-haired girl, would continue to refine this special area. Currently, the prince had already ranked the Martial Demon Realm cultivators who had entered the special area this time.
Only one of them would always be able to refine the region. The others were all supportive.
After Xiao Shi checked the four taboos and compared them to the taboos he had come into contact with in the demigod land that sealed the Eye of the Emperor Judgment, he could clearly sense that the taboo formed by the Great Martial Emperor was extremely different from a true demigod taboo.
For example, on the taboo of not being able to refine the region privately, not being able to attack people who were also from the Great Martial Empire, and not being able to join forces with people outside the Great Martial Empire, the prince could only make a behavioral prohibition.
One couldn’t even think about it if it was a true demigod taboo. It couldn’t even have any such thoughts.
Still, although the taboo formed by the prince did not reach the level of a demigod taboo, the prohibition of such behavior was enough to make these Martial Demon Realm experts of the Great Wu Empire obediently assist.
Even if they were unconvinced and disloyal, it could not violate these four taboos.
“I have to remind you that this special area is very likely fundamentally different from the area you know in the past. You must be careful!” The Prince said in a low voice. Although he had already gained a lot of understanding of this special area through the royal guards, even the royal guards themselves did not know the situation in this special area.
When the Martial Emperor created this special area, no one participated in the creation process, so no one knew what existed in this special area. What was certain was that since this area was a special area that was stronger than other ordinary areas, the situation inside was definitely not simple.
After reminding everyone, the prince looked at the time. “It’s about time.” He took a deep breath. He immediately got the Sages to start preparing.
Xiang Zizhen and the other Sages nodded. They sat cross-legged on the square of the palace. According to the method that the prince had instructed them previously, they carried out a special ritual.
It was the way to open this special area. This activation required the Sages of every region to circulate their domains at the same time to form a passageway to a special area. The Sages of the three great domains also carried out this ritual at the same time under the orders of the three Heavenly Kings.
As they circulated, a circular light immediately shot out in front of every Sage.
“Stand on it.” The prince and the three Heavenly Kings said in a low voice.
These Martial Demon Realm cultivators chosen by every Sage immediately stood in the circular light that appeared on the ground. The round light under their feet and the huge land in the sky formed a passageway that could not be seen by the naked eye.
After all, this special area was formed by the parts of these Sages’ areas. Now, these Sages had activated the portion that had separated from their own area to form a passageway.
Swoosh!
In an instant, these Martial Demon Realm cultivators standing in the circular light immediately disappeared from the circular light under the guidance of the passageway.
Under the teleportation of the round light, they were teleported to the special area above. The prince and the three Heavenly Kings looked up at the huge land in the sky at the same time, their eyes filled with intense fanaticism and anticipation.
There were not many Sages in the entire Tianwu Continent. The birth of every Sage was extremely important to the three domains of the three Heavenly Kings and the Great Wu Empire. Moreover, this time, it was the strongest Sage he had ever seen!
This was extremely important to the Great Wu Empire and the three great domains. Xiang Zizhen also clenched his fists tightly, looking forward to Xiao Shi successfully refining this special area.
Although the prince had formed a taboo on them, Xiang Zizhen believed that Xiao Shi would definitely have a solution. After all, only he knew that the person who had really entered the sealed place of the Eye of the Emperor Judgment was Xiao Shi.
This was not the first time the other party had come into contact with taboos..
