The departure of Moon Gazing Sect meant that the area 1,000 miles around belonged to Martial Path Mountain.
There weren’t any other factions left.
Of course, in this territory, there was still a city that had been forgotten by the Imperial Dynasty and it was also a city that the big sects didn’t pay attention to.
The other top sects each controlled 4-5 bigs cities to form a dynasty.
No matter what, Lin Fan was such a majestic person. He was the Sect Leader of Martial Path Mountain, and with the chief god faith system, he could create experts at will. How could a normal person do the same?
“Xu Zhao, bring people to take down that city in Martial Path Mountain’s territory. Don’t harm the people. If the aristocratic families want to resist, then teach them a lesson. If they are willing to scram, then let them.” Lin Fan said.
Xu Zhao was waiting to do something. Now that Sect Leader instructed him, he didn’t hesitate and brought his men over to that city.
Lin Fan really didn’t know how to select a location as he placed Martial Path Mountain in such a dumb place. There were so few resources and from the one city and weak sects around, one could tell that it wasn’t much of a place.
But all of this didn’t matter anymore.
He would slowly develop. Now, Martial Path Mountain was already covering 1,000 miles and he would continue to expand it.
“Go, let’s head back first.” Lin Fan waved his hand and the group of them left.
They had come out for so long and achieved decent gains.
In his words, everything was really calm and peaceful and he didn’t face any problems.
Those powers all knew their place and knew that they had to give up their territories as Martial Path Mountain was here.
Mountain City.
It was a very ordinary city with nothing shocking about it. It was also unable to compare to those large cities.
The city had an aristocratic family that ruled it.
After the Imperial Dynasty was wiped out, Mountain City was uncontrolled. These families had their own thoughts like turning into the city head.
When such a thought appeared in their minds, they couldn’t get rid of it anymore.
However, there wasn’t only one family in Mountain City. Each of the families thought in the same way, so they could only fight one another for the position.
Unfortunately, Xu Zhao’s arrival changed everything.
Xu Zhao brought his men and his loud words spread to every corner, “All of you listen up, from today onwards, this city is ruled by Martial Path Mountain.”
When Xu Zhao said that, the entire city was in an uproar.
The normal people didn’t care at all. As long as they had a decent life like before, then whoever controlled the city didn’t matter.
But to the Mountain City families, how could this person be so arrogant?
As for Martial Path Mountain?
They had never heard of it before. What was it even?
Of course, many people knew about Martial Path Mountain and they were people who were chased away by Lin Fan.
They thought about how dangerous the outside world was, so they decided to become a normal commoner in Mountain City.
Who knew that Martial Path Mountain would progress so quickly and stretch their hands over?
Terrifying!
Did they really have no place to live?
These families were like ants to Xu Zhao, he could crush them right away without giving them an opportunity to fight back.
After all, Xu Zhao’s strength had reached Domain Realm.
He was nearly able to become a Dao Realm expert.
How could those families even face off against him? The gap between them was just huge.
Martial Path Mountain.
Zhang Tianshan was so excited that he was about to jump for joy.
“This kid has grown up, he really has.”
His biggest goal was to strengthen Martial Path Mountain but he had no choice as Lin Fan didn’t care about it.
But now, the heavens had opened their eyes.
The kid finally decided to develop Martial Path Mountain.
Zhang Tianshan had nothing to do in Martial Path Mountain but to make the place become saintly, he studied formations and merged all sorts of it into the mountain.
Although he was weak, so weak that he could be ignored, hard work defined everything. He used formations that even dao Realm experts would have to pay attention and be careful about.
Since Liang Yongqi suffered the huge blow outside and returned, he followed Zhang Tianshan every day.
“Sect Leader Zhang, I learned my first formation. When will you take a look at it?” Liang Yongqi asked.
Zhang Tianshan said, “Eh, not bad. Work hard. When I am free, I will take a look.”
Liang Yongqi knew how to speak.
When no one was there, he would call him Sect Leader.
Liang Yongqi nodded. There were more and more people in Martial Path Mountain and his status was different; he was the older brother.
He didn’t feel that it had been any different in the past.
But when one Long Rainbow Sect disciple called him Senior Brother, his mood totally changed.
Did it feel so good being sucked up by other people?
That night, Lin Fan was contemplating something in the room.
If he didn’t have the Darkness Chief God’s legacy, he would just leave the territories that he occupied as they were.
But it was different now as he needed faith.
The god domain in his body changed and the hall was perfectly shone. However, it was really wide and there were still many buildings that needed to be built. To have a complete darkness god domain, he needed more faith.
The key was, during this period of time, he collected a lot of faith and many legacy skills appeared. To be more direct, these skills were quite useless.
Lin Fan controlled the faith in the god domain to teleport through the dimension and descend in Mountain City.
At the same time, he used skills that a chief god had, Dream Realm.
On this night, all the civilians dreamt about a golden statue in their dreams.
It was said that if they worshipped the God of Martial Path Mountain, then they would be protected.
In the center of Mountain City, a statue appeared out of nowhere. It looked like Lin Fan’s face.
Since the territory was occupied, then naturally he would utilize it. Although the civilians were weak, they could provide him with faith. Moreover, when their faith reached a certain level, he could help increase their strength.
Just thinking about that made him feel good.
The next day!
Sunlight covered Mountain City.
The civilians who came out early in the morning were all frightened when they saw the giant statue. All of them muttered to themselves.
“That dream last night…”
All of them dreamt last night and something happened in the dream, but since it was a dream, it didn’t affect them much.
“Who made this prank?”
“Who placed the statue here?”
The civilians gathered together and all of them were lost. None of them knew what was happening.
A corner of Mountain City, in an old and broken hut.
A woman was waiting.
She sighed.
“Haiz!”
A doctor helped to diagnose her kid and he shook his head. “There is nothing I can do. Prepare for his death.”
The woman panicked, “Doctor, please take a look. How can’t he be saved? He definitely can be saved, I beg you.”
The doctor struggled free, “There is really nothing I can do; he is too ill and I can’t start healing him in any way.”
The woman fell to the floor and looked at her kid just laying there. She cried, “He is only three. Why is his life so tough? No, there has to be a way, there has to be.”
Instantly, the woman recalled what she had dreamt about last night.
She didn’t go through the entire dream as she had to take care of the kid and usually just slept for a short time. But she recalled some things from the dream.
Shortly after, she carried her son and ran outside.
When the neighbors saw her, they all shouted, “Sister Xiang, where are you going?”
She didn’t reply and just ran into the distance.
“Let’s follow her. She is so pitiful; her husband died and now her only child is about to die too.”
“Please don’t let anything happen to her. let’s go take a look.”
The surrounding neighbors all followed behind as all of them were really worried too.
In the center of the city, the statue made many people curious but none of them prayed to it.
Who knew where such a random thing appeared from?
It must have been a prank from Martial Path Mountain and the goal was to tell them that this was their territory.
That might have been the case.
But at that moment, the passers-by all stopped.
Sister Xiang carried her child over and knelt to the ground, “Save my child, please save my child.”
Some civilians recognized who she was.
“Isn’t that Sister Xiang from the east city? I heard that her son is really ill and the doctor can’t do anything about it.”
“Haiz, what is the point of kneeling? Can a god even appear?”
“Right, she is really pitiful; her life is just so tough,”
She knelt there and didn’t say a word. She prayed in her heart and disregarded everything that the people around said.
This was her only hope.
The people who followed all wanted to say something to her but someone pulled them back and shook his head.
“Don’t disturb her. This is her only hope. It is cruel to not allow her to do this. Once she gives up, then she can slowly recover.”
All of them nodded their heads and didn’t say anything more.
Time passed.
The sky turned black.
The civilians all went back home but many passed by and saw Sister Xiang still kneeling there.
To them, there was no need for this.
What was the point?
All of this was fake.
How could the statue save her son?
On the morning of the next day, many people were walking along the streets and all of them looked at her in shock. It had been a full day and she was still kneeling there. At the same time, they realized that her kid’s breathing was really weak and it was like he could leave anytime.
“Haiz.”
“Too pitiful.”
“Not only did she lose her man, but she is about to lose her kid. This is a huge blow to her.”
Martial Path Mountain.
Lin Fan was contemplating something. One day passed and there was no faith at all. Had he done something wrong?
But that was impossible.
That didn’t make sense.
Suddenly, a soft voice spread into his mind. In one of the faith threads, there was a special situation.
“What is going on?”
Lin Fan was a little stunned but he was really curious too. Nothing like this had ever happened before. Or was this a new function due to the development of the god domain?
