I Have A Martial Dao World

Taking advantage of the moment when Lu Yao was engaged in killing and soul-crushing, Chamberlain and Clementeau split up and fled, making a desperate struggle.

Unfortunately, the gap between them was too great. Lu Yao smiled as his body blurred and, in the next instant, appeared right in front of Chamberlain, grabbing him with one hand.

It was only then that the sound of a rocket being fired could be heard, as Lu Yao moved so fast that he seemed to be teleporting.

Chamberlain struggled desperately to fight back, trying to turn into mist to escape.

But a powerful Divine Thought, carrying the True Intent of the Martial Path, formed a cage that tightly bound him, rendering his resistance futile, like a hamster in a cage.

Carrying him, Lu Yao used the same method to intercept Clementeau in a blink.

This guy had been remotely controlling Saint Joan of Arc to cover the rear, but he never expected Lu Yao to suddenly appear right in front of him, almost running right into him.

He too was rendered powerless to resist, subdued by the electric-like Divine Thought, his entire body paralyzed with only his eyes able to move.

Actually, Lu Yao could easily take care of this group of people, but since the powers did not interfere in the affairs of the Divine Land, simply killing them would let them off too lightly.

Therefore, it was necessary to kill both the body and the soul!

Next, there would be a military expedition and the exploitation and enslavement of the defeated—a cycle of karma and deserved retribution!

However, right now, he needed to let Saint Joan of Arc rest in eternal peace once more.

At that moment, the ancient heroine with only one arm left fought her way towards him with a sword.

After the previous battles, she was covered in injuries, but her will to fight was undiminished, her sword-wielding arm firm and resolute!

Lu Yao did not dodge or avoid her attack but took the sword blow with his chest, then raised his fist to strike, ready to send her back to eternal rest with all his strength.

The fist reached Joan of Arc's face in an instant, and because it moved so quickly it rubbed against the air, leaving a faint orange-red trail.

But just as it was about to hit, Lu Yao had a change of heart and held back the force of the punch, turning it into a finger tap that landed like lightning on Joan of Arc's Yintang Acupoint.

A scream echoed in the void, and a smaller "Clementeau" was pulled out!

"So it's the method of dividing the spirit and manipulating the thoughts; it seems this is how you controlled the remains of Joan of Arc."

Lu Yao's face showed disgust as he forcefully pinched the little figure to smithereens, feeling somewhat like bubble wrap.

Clementeau was horrified beyond words, but he couldn't utter a single word!

This was 30% of his own soul! It was because he had valued Saint Joan of Arc so highly that he used such methods to control her…

The next second, a thick stream of blood plasma sprayed from his facial orifices, and his consciousness collapsed in an instant, rendering him a vegetative state.

With the caster brain-dead, Saint Joan of Arc was completely freed.

Yet she showed no reaction, standing still like a statue in place for quite a while without moving.

After a few seconds, she suddenly turned to look at the only vampire in the arena—Chamberlain.

Saint Joan of Arc had been dead for hundreds of years, and her consciousness had dissipated into the world. But once her body regained freedom, she began instinctively to act according to her past behavior—fighting against Demon Beasts!

"Hey, ya!"

With a fierce cry, Joan of Arc swung her sword like lightning to decapitate Chamberlain, then reversed her grip and thrust the sword into the location of his "Blood Core."

Her technique was skillful, precise, and elegant.

Chamberlain didn't even have time to realize what had happened before he turned to ashes, confusion in his eyes.

After slaying the Demon Beast, Joan of Arc became motionless again, zoning out for a short while.

But the next second, she surprisingly turned the sword on herself, stabbing towards her own heart!

Lu Yao instinctively wanted to stop her, but after a moment's thought, he still forcibly held back from interfering, as it was her own choice.

Joan of Arc opened up her chest to reveal the "Fusion Crystal" within, and with her only hand remaining, began to slowly pull the crystal out.

She could not accept becoming a Demon Beast, nor could she tolerate having the part of a Demon Beast within her.

But it was this very crystal that enabled her to move; by the time she was nearing the end of removing it, she had already collapsed to the ground, exhausted, and still a bit short of getting it out.

It was then that Lu Yao stepped forward, passing a stream of Divine Thought to her.

Renewed strength coursed through Joan of Arc's body, and with a roar, she finally pulled the "Fusion Crystal" out completely, throwing it far away.

At this moment, precisely at noon, a sliver of sunlight pierced through the dark clouds and shone directly upon Joan of Arc.

The young girl bathed in the warm sunshine, closed her eyes gently, and slowly turned mottled, transforming into glowing spots of light.

The blue light spots fluttered around Lu Yao like fireflies for a while, before all converging into Joan of Arc's sword and shield.

In the next second, the two divine weapons automatically flew into Lu Yao's hands.

"Saint Catherine, Lady Genevieve... Western magical treasures?" Lu Yao gently patted them and said, "I'm not quite used to them, but they will just be right for finding a suitable owner for you."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

At this time, the evacuation traffic in the Washington area had completely clogged the roads in all directions.

Fortunately, Wu Tingfang knew that this was bound to be a big event, so he heeded Lu Yao's instructions and firmly evacuated compatriots and representatives of the Yi Dynasty Business Association alike, escaping ahead of everyone else.

His own strength was modest and he had little prestige, but as an official appointed by the Imperial Court, he still managed to lead a vast majority of people with him.

As the group had not gotten far, a series of thunderous explosions rang out from behind them, creating a pressure so intense that even from a distance it made their chests feel stuffy.

The chaos grew wave after wave, flattening even the Capitol Building. The Washington Monument, standing at 170 meters tall, also collapsed with a deafening crash, kicking up a plume of dust so vast that it was visible from miles away.

A visible storm then formed, turning this city filled with numerous cultural relics into a giant garbage heap.

Filled with shock, everyone was relieved they had left early.

Most of those who dared to travel across the ocean to seek a living abroad had some capabilities, and initially, they wanted to witness the excitement.

But seeing the situation, it was better for those without the strength of the Blood-Exchange Realm to stay away.

Looking at the slowly collapsing high-rises in the city, the group was speechless:

"The core area is destroyed, the Federation's capital is utterly ruined."

"No wonder Lord Lu Tian had the confidence to face the enemies alone, he had the strength to fight against many!"

"If he can emerge unscathed after this, it will be a glorious victory!"

...

Everyone thought that it was a cataclysmic battle that destroyed the city, but the specifics were unknown.

Some of the more composed and cautious were still concerned about whether Lu Yao would emerge unscathed. The current prosperous situation of the Yi Dynasty depended entirely on the Celestial Lord!

But just then, suddenly, the sound of thundering footsteps drew closer and closer.

A majestic figure with three heads and six arms, resembling a deity or demon, came striding forward while holding a pipa.

"Look fast! It's the Celestial Lord's Divine Thought!"

"Has the fight in the city concluded? What is he going to do now?"

"Let's follow and see!"

A few individuals with cultivations took to their techniques and followed from a distance, but as they continued, a vague guess formed in their minds, and they looked at each other with shocked expressions.

Especially as a bustling metropolis came into view at a distance, confirming their speculation.

Wu Tingfang exclaimed in shock, "Could it be... the Celestial Lord's Divine Thought is heading to New York!?"

Sure enough, the Divine Thought made its way towards New York!

In the city, countless figures in bright and colorful tight outfits leaped out, superheroes sworn to protect their city.

What followed was a scene like out of a video game where players battle a boss.

But the boss was overly powerful, having not just high health and attack power, but also exaggerated long-range offensive capabilities.

The pipa's ten fingers rapidly plucked the strings, and the music was crisp and melodious, as a dense flurry of invisible blades whistled and flew out!

In its presence, not just humans, but even large buildings were like potatoes under a kitchen knife, "shing shing shing," all sliced into countless pieces.

Among them, the most conspicuous was the 400-meter-tall Empire State Building, which was slashed diagonally at the waist into two sections, the top half slowly collapsing, kicking up a tower of dust!

At that moment, as Wu Tingfang and the others witnessed this spectacle, they were overwhelmed by feelings of shock, awe, and excitement, and for a good long while, they could not utter a single word.

From today onward, the era had thoroughly changed.
