Chapter 529: Holding the Mountain with One Hand
The red light on Zhang Wuji's hand grew brighter and brighter, and every beat of the red heart in his chest generated infinite power, gradually overwhelming the green sword in Wang Yansheng's hand.

"I think the Five Elements Mountain must have been taken by now, and the Red Flame Taoist soldiers I sent out must have arrived at the capital of the Ming Dynasty. I just don't know if the capital, which is now undefended, can withstand a few of my Pluto's Heaven and Earth Longevity bombs."

The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile: "The power of that Heaven and Earth Longevity Bomb is just a slow and inadequate destructive force to you and me, but it is enough to cover the strike area of ​​most cities, and its power is difficult for low-level cultivators to resist, enough to wipe the capital of the Ming Dynasty off the map!"

"You picked a very coincidental and lucky time. My three space carriers didn't have time to be assembled before you attacked. Unfortunately, even if only the Pluto was assembled, it would be enough to destroy the defenses along the way under the full configuration of the Red Flame Taoist Soldiers."

Zhang Wuji looked at Wang Yansheng, whose face was livid, and said, "What you and I have learned is roughly the same. What I understand, you should also understand, but the research directions are different. I can tell you that the Tiandi Tongshou bomb is the highest-level weapon of mass destruction that I can develop in a short period of time. You should be able to guess it."

He moved his lips and uttered a word. Upon hearing that word, Wang Yansheng's face changed drastically: "If you really want to use that kind of weapon, do you know how many casualties it will cause with one shot?"

Zhang Wuji nodded nonchalantly: "Of course I know it, even better than you. You have only seen the description in the book, but I have watched it come into being step by step and put into use."

"Don't worry, I have already improved it. After all, our world is a world of immortals, so of course we have to adapt to local customs and carry out immortal transformation. The Tiandi Tongshou Bullet is no longer so polluting. It uses a mixed energy source such as spiritual power and dragon energy to ensure it is clean and pollution-free."

He smiled softly: "Of course, we can also ensure that the people being cleansed will not feel too much pain and will die cleanly!"

Wang Yansheng's eyes seemed to be emitting flames, and he gritted his teeth and said: "You...you have to think clearly, these are hundreds of thousands of mortal lives!"

Zhang Wuji shook his head: "This is the biggest difference between you and me. You are too kind. I can see that you are soft-hearted but actually strong inside. However, the kindness in your heart always drives you to achieve your goals through roundabout ways such as exchanging interests and communicating with each other."

"It's not that you can't be ruthless, you just want to achieve your goal with the least casualties. You choose the lesser of two evils. When faced with a dilemma, you will compromise with the party that represents the majority interests, and then..."

He said coldly: "And then abandon the minority. For example, you will compromise for the sake of the people and let the righteous monks and the immortals in the sky manipulate you."

Zhang Wuji stared at Wang Yansheng and said, "Don't tell me that you can't unify the power in your hands in a more ruthless way. You are just too kind, so you can be deceived. Otherwise, the great scene of unifying the power early is far beyond the reach of the Ming Dynasty where I, who do not have the top power, can catch up."

"But I'm different. I'm good at giving up and taking shortcuts, which is what people often call taking an unconventional approach and seeking quick success. From this perspective, you are not wrong to call me a demon."

He exerted force with his hands, constantly pressuring Wang Yansheng: "I will force the Ming Dynasty to advance in technology, hiding all kinds of contradictions under the rapidly developing productivity. I will also forcefully brainwash the people of the Ming Dynasty to complete the birth of the Red Giant. I will also issue decrees with iron-blooded means, demanding equality for everyone."

"But there is no real equality in the world. I just use killing to stop violence and suppress all conflicts with blood. In the end..."

"Eventually, all conflicts will be transferred to the outside world, that is, the war with Dajing!"

He sighed softly, "The Ming Dynasty is now a huge powder keg. Classes are intertwined, mortals and monks, and conflicts of all sizes are piling up. All it takes is a fuse to blow the seemingly prosperous Ming Dynasty to pieces."

"So I can only keep winning. I must win. I can't show any cowardice, nor can I have the slightest sign of losing, because I know that as long as I lose once, it will be all over." Zhang Wuji looked at Wang Yansheng. Now he had pressed the tip of Wang Yansheng's sword to his face, almost touching the wing of Wang Yansheng's nose.

"This is the biggest difference between you and me. You can start over countless times and make a comeback, but I don't have that chance, so I can only put everything on the line. I can even sacrifice my own life, let alone the lives of others!"

Wang Yansheng said angrily: "You lunatic!"

Zhang Wuji laughed loudly and said, "That's right, I am a madman, or this is the normal me. After all, I was born different from you. I will not be bound by good and evil, nor trapped by principles. I can do whatever I want, because I am a demon, not the demon in the eyes of the righteous, but the wanton demon that I identify with!"

"I really like your expression right now. After all, you are just like me, pretending all the time, but you are just covering your kindness with a false coat. I know you still have some strength left, so use all your strength to resist me, otherwise..."

Zhang Wuji punched out, knocking Wang Yansheng back half a step: "Otherwise, the hundreds of thousands of resentful souls who died under the same life span as heaven and earth will accompany you for a long time and become your eternal nightmare!"

Wang Yansheng could no longer control his facial expression, nor restrain his magic power. He let his sword intent fly, and he raised his sword and slashed continuously with unparalleled violence, temporarily suppressing Zhang Wuji's arrogance.

"Asshole, bastard!"

Zhang Wuji threw another punch, and the red heart veins spread out from his chest and gradually climbed up his face, but was blocked by Wang Yansheng who had let go of his hands and feet and showed his sharp edge.

"Yes, that's right. You and I are both capable of unleashing power several times greater than our own. With the bonus of luck, it won't be a problem for you to break through in battle. Don't constrain yourself!"

Zhang Wuji caught the blade with his bare hands and held the sword tip tightly, talking non-stop. Wang Yansheng used his body as a sword, and the hundreds of sheaths around his body released thousands of sword intents to strangle everything. At the same time, his comprehension of sword intent and his sword skills also increased layer by layer.

Suddenly, the battle between the two changed again. A black shadow was seen coming slowly from a thousand miles away, overwhelming and unstoppable.

"Wang Yansheng, I'm here. I got what you wanted. Tell me, who is this for?"

Kua Hu shouted loudly, and the next second he was frightened by Wang Yansheng, who was full of murderous aura and sword intent. Then he received a cold message from Wang Yansheng.

After receiving the letter, Kua Hu nodded, stretched out his hand and weighed it. The majestic peaks and the Five Elements Mountains rose up and crushed towards Zhang Wuji.

Under the huge shadow, Zhang Wuji smiled: "Good job!"

As he spoke, he raised his remaining hand high up, intending to shake the majestic peak with one hand!
