Chapter 817: Dream World (1)

“You’re a little too ruthless! Could it be that you want to kill us all?”
“I admit that you’re very strong! But does Fengdu City want to become enemies with the entire Nine Provinces?”
Everyone felt a fatal danger when they were attacked by Jiang Li’s Human Emperor’s aura. Their instincts told them that if the person above really wanted to kill them, he could do it.
With the strength and status of these 3,000 plus people, they should have not felt this way for many, many years.
Now, there were only a dozen or so people present who could still float in the air.
Jiang Li glanced at them and roughly knew their situation.
Among these dozen or so guys, there were powerful demons who were not humans.
They were either the reincarnation of an ancient Immortal or Buddha, whose origin was not human.
It was just like how the Golden Cicada had reincarnated as a human. Although he was human, he was actually still a Golden Cicada.
Even if his reincarnation body would be suppressed by the Human Emperor, it would still be reduced to a certain extent.
Coupled with the fact that their strength was indeed outstanding, they could persist in the air.
However, that was all.
It was impossible for them to resist or even counterattack.
“Ruthless? Where did that come from?”
With a thought from Jiang Li, the pressure on his body doubled again, suppressing the three thousand-plus experts until they spat out blood again.
Fortunately, he quickly weakened the pressure.
“Look, I held back. How can this be considered ruthless?”
In order to prove that he was gentle to others, Jiang Li even specially let them feel a higher pressure. It was reasonable and convincing.
Everyone revealed terrified expressions.
How powerful was this person?
He should not have become an immortal yet.
Why was he so powerful that it did not make sense?
Previously, they had thought that anyone below the Immortal God realm who was as powerful as Ling Zhuzi should have reached the peak.
Even if that Human Emperor was stronger than Ling Zhuzi, it would only be a little!
Who would have thought that before this Human Emperor even attacked, he would completely wipe them out with just his aura?
They were pressed to the ground and could not even move a finger. How could they have their usual dignity?
“A warrior can be killed but not humiliated!”
“If you kill us, the Nine Provinces will definitely not be controlled by a ferocious person like you forever! Our descendants will definitely avenge us!”
The person who spoke was the reincarnation of a rather unyielding Immortal or Buddha.
He was probably relying on the strength of his reincarnated soul to have an opportunity of making a comeback. That was why he was so arrogant.
He used the entire continent of the Nine Provinces to threaten Jiang Li.
It was somewhat effective because Jiang Li still needed them.
“Looks like you’ve misunderstood me. This is not an insult. I’m just greeting everyone.”
“In addition, if I really want to kill you all, this is how it should be!”
He closed his hands and opened them. Then, red and blue lights blossomed in his eyes.
He glanced at the cultivator who had just spoken nonsense.
The anti-cultivation domain and blood-colored gaze landed on him at the same time.
Immediately, it was as if he had thrown an entire string of firecrackers into a feces pit.
A series of spiritual qi blood fog erupted from that person’s body, splashing the other experts lying around him all over their heads and faces.
Who asked him to have immortal qi in his body?
If he was targeted by the Anti-Cultivation Spiritual Bead, his outcome would be too miserable.
When Jiang Li put away the spiritual light, this person was already on the verge of death. Moreover, there were more than a hundred blood-colored curses from the Asura World deeply rooted in his soul.
This was a world-class curse that Jiang Li had obtained from the Asura World. Even if he died, he would not be able to break free.
When the other experts saw this scene, their fear towards Jiang Li reached its peak in advance.
They were no longer as arrogant as before.
It was too easy. They had been defeated too easily.
They lay there without any ability to resist.
When one was only slightly stronger than others, perhaps others would be jealous, unconvinced, hateful, attack, or even slander them.
However, when one was powerful enough and far surpassed others, they were so powerful that others did not even have the courage to be jealous.
All that was left was to look up and have deep reverence. They would love, fear, and respect the strong.
Even if you beat them up, they might still thank you for not killing them.
Everyone present who had the heart of the strong naturally did not waver so easily.
Therefore, in order to make them change their minds in the shortest time, Jiang Li had to be more ruthless.
However, he could not injure them too badly. Otherwise, they would not be able to play a role in the upcoming calamity.
Controlling this limit was the hardest.
Sure enough, after teaching them a lesson, Jiang Li could clearly sense that
most of the hostility these guys on the ground had towards him had disappeared.
Compared to the previous confrontation, although they were pressed to the ground, the atmosphere was much more harmonious now.
“I was joking to ease the atmosphere. I believe everyone already roughly knows who I am.”
“I’ve inherited the position of the current Human Emperor. As for my strength, I’m slightly ahead of everyone.”
“I offended you just now. I believe everyone won’t fuss about this small matter.”
“I used the immortal spiritual qi to guide you to the Prosperous Ox Continent not to harm you. It’s to save you and the continent of the Nine Provinces!”
After establishing his might, Jiang Li put away his pressure and seized the time to talk business.
However, in this world, there were always some guys who did not understand the situation and liked to jump out to cause trouble.
