Chapter 115: The War 3
Jiang Yun turned to look at Shen Lang, Sa Ying, and Long Wei. Though their bodies had been sliced into pieces, they slowly began to regenerate. Their eyes remained locked on Jiang Yun, filled with hatred and malice.
Jiang Yun smiled slightly, his voice cold as he spoke, "I really don't like those who can see the future... Though I don't know what you've seen, I bet it wasn't something good, was it?"
Shen Lang gritted his teeth and spat out, "You're a truly vile and ruthless creature!"
Long Wei added, "Hmph... I never thought what that little wolf told me would turn out to be true... You're a demon, plain and simple!"
Sa Ying remained silent, but her eyes burned with fury.
Jiang Yun smiled and turned away from the three of them, no longer paying them any mind. His attention shifted to Xue Houyi, who was currently absorbing an immense amount of power from the Universal Dao, continuously strengthening herself. Yet, Jiang Yun remained calm, showing no intention of attacking her.
After a while, the immense energy that had once shaken the entire Tianyuan Universe began to settle. Xue Houyi stood tall, her body radiating a terrifying power. A cold smile played on her lips.
The Universal Dao behind her was overjoyed. It believed this would finally be the end of Jiang Yun. In its mind, it cursed Jiang Yun endlessly, eagerly awaiting the moment Xue Houyi would strike him down.
However... suddenly, the Universal Dao's expression shifted to one of confusion. It wasn't just the Universal Dao; Feng Yi, Feng Yang, and everyone from Tianyuan, along with the other races, were all in a state of disbelief.
"This is impossible..." Feng Yi's voice trembled.
Everyone watched in shock as Xue Houyi, having just received an overwhelming amount of power from the Universal Dao, did something no one expected. Instead of attacking Jiang Yun, she knelt before him and bowed her head deeply, showing the utmost respect.

"Greetings, my lord..." she said.
The sight stunned and terrified everyone. The air was thick with confusion and tension. Mo Ji, filled with hope, asked, "Does this mean we're saved now?"
Chang Tong glanced at Mo Ji and immediately replied, "No... we're all going to die. And there's no chance of survival if everything is going the way I suspect."
Mo Ji furrowed his brow in confusion. "What are you talking about?"
Before Chang Tong could respond, Jiang Yun smiled faintly and said, "Since all the pieces are in place... shall we begin?"
Everyone on the battlefield was filled with uncertainty, but before anyone could say more, Yong Xuan, who stood nearby, suddenly coughed up blood. It wasn't just her—Feng Yang, Chang Tong, Mo Ji, Ling Meng, Hai Chen, and others who had once entered Jiang Yun's small world began vomiting blood as well. Their bodies started showing signs of something being terribly wrong, with parts of them beginning to change.
"What's happening!?" Ling Meng shouted in confusion, clutching his chest.
In the midst of the chaos, all of Jiang Yun's Samsara clones appeared from the void. They raised their hands in unison, and their immense spiritual energy surged across the battlefield, triggering something in everyone present.
Everyone froze... even the blood ants. But before anyone could react, some of the races began to bleed from their mouths, their bodies deforming. Screams echoed through the air as their forms started to change bit by bit.
Zi Hao, seeing what was happening, immediately thought of the spirit absorption pills he had distributed earlier. He hesitated for a moment before charging straight at Jiang Yun.
"You monster!" Zi Hao roared.
But before his sword could reach Jiang Yun, Chang Ming rushed in and blocked the attack.
Zi Hao shouted angrily, "I trusted you! You vile creature! You used me!"
Jiang Yun smiled faintly, completely unfazed, and replied coldly, "How can you blame me? I simply gave you the choice of whether to help distribute the spirit absorption pills or not, and you agreed, didn't you?"
With a cold smile, Jiang Yun added, "Never mind. Let's end this, shall we?"
At Jiang Yun's command, all the Samsara clones began intensifying their power, causing the various races to display increasingly strange symptoms. Their bodies contorted, once muscular arms becoming thin and frail. Sharp claws sprouted from their hands, and bright red scales started to form across their bodies. They were turning into the very creatures they feared the most—blood ants.
Some, still conscious, attempted to end their own lives, but before they could, the nearby blood ants stopped them. Those individuals could only scream curses at Jiang Yun in bitter hatred.
"You demon, Jiang Yun! May you never die peacefully! I curse—"
Before he could finish, the man's body fully transformed into a blood ant. But the air was filled with the wails of others as the races began mutating one by one.
Feng Yang and Feng Yi, who were trying to escape the Tianyuan Universe, were forced to stop when Feng Yang started exhibiting symptoms of the blood ant's poison. He realized it must have come from the spirit absorption pills Zi Hao had distributed earlier. Feng Yi looked at Jiang Yun with a mixture of anger and confusion, shouting at him, "Why are you doing this? Aren't we on the same side!?"
Jiang Yun smiled. "Do you remember when you and all of Tianyuan conspired to attack and destroy my sect?"
Feng Yi spat blood but still tried to speak. "But none of your people died!"
Jiang Yun laughed softly. "And what if, at that time, I hadn't been strong enough to revive them?"
Feng Yi stared at him in confusion and replied, "Then they would've died!"
Jiang Yun's laughter grew colder. "Exactly... If I hadn't been strong enough back then, or if I hadn't figured out your treacherous plan, my sect would've been wiped from Tianyuan."
Xue Ting, standing nearby, tried to reason with him. "No one has died yet... can't you let this go? We'll find a way to make amends to you in the future."
Jiang Yun glanced at Xue Ting with icy eyes and smiled faintly. "You think you can throw stones at me and expect me to return roses? I don't need to eat an entire pepper farm to learn that it's spicy."
