In just one stick of incense, Qingqiu worked extremely hard to compile all the information about Qu Zhaozhou and Yinghuangzhou since the war for Xu Qing, and thoughtfully divided it into two jade slips.
It was delivered to Xu Qing, who was closing his eyes and concentrating in the Shuling Division.
She does not do this work alone, there are other sword holders who cooperate with the review. After ensuring that it is correct, they need to add their own marks.
This is a method of accountability set up to prevent mistakes from occurring.
Xu Qing opened his eyes, took the jade slip and inspected it.
In today's Fenghai County, it is impossible for foreigners to obtain troops, so the only two places Xu Qing can think of are Quzhao Prefecture and Yinghuang Prefecture.
Due to the outbreak of the Clothing Ban and the Corpse Ban in these two states, the palace lord ordered them not to go to the front line, but to suppress the two bans with all their strength, and not to allow the two bans to riot during the war.
Fenghai County has a total of thirteen states.
If the power of these two states could be released, it would be equivalent to providing nearly 20% of the power for the front line at this moment.
This is extremely huge military assistance to the front line.
But this matter is too difficult. Even if Xu Qing can ask Qingqin to take action, it will still be difficult.
So now he began to research information on these two states.
"The disaster of the Clothing Ban has been basically suppressed, but this is the most critical time. Now the entire Quzhao Prefecture, under the coordination of its sword-holding court, is going all out to carry out the final seal. During this period, in order to prevent the Clothing Ban from counterattack, it is indispensable
Combat strength will take another month."
Xu Qing frowned and sighed secretly.
One month is too long, and it is too late for the current Fenghai County front line.
But if the seal is not removed, the land of a state will first be invaded by the forbidden land, and the foundations of all the human clans in the state will be destroyed, and countless human races will be reduced to the rations of the forbidden land and be completely alienated.
As it spreads, there will be chaos within Fenghai County.
Moreover, most of the foreigners in these two states also participated in the sealing. After all, unlike the situation in other states, the danger at the doorstep forced the foreigners in these two states to take action.
Therefore, it was difficult for Xu Qing to give the order to cancel the seal and go to the front line immediately.
This is especially true for Yinghuang Province, where Xu Qing’s base camp is located. Even if more than ninety ethnic groups from the Forbidden Sea cooperate to fight against the Corpse Imprisonment and gather most of the power of Yinghuang Province, they can only let the corpses
The forbidden chaos was barely suppressed.
Now we are in a stalemate.
Xu Qing was silent and looked at the jade slip carefully. After a long time, when he was reviewing the information from Yinghuangzhou, his eyes suddenly narrowed and he noticed that there was a piece of information in it, which was recorded in the routine petition of the Sword-bearing Court.
"Most of the foreign races and forces in Yinghuang Province participated in the battle against the Corpse Imprisonment, but some did not, led by Sanling Town Dao Mountain and Ghost Emperor Mountain."
"However, after communication, the two major forces agreed not to step outside the area during this period."
"The three spirits of Zhendao Mountain and the seven souls of Ghost Emperor Mountain are all transformed by the Ghost Emperor's own soul, and the remaining marks of Ghost Emperor Mountain are indestructible unless they are Yun Shen. Therefore, they are all immortals. There will be friction if they are forced to fight. And if
Without sincerity, there is no benefit in sealing the corpse, but it will distract you."
"Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary complications and waste of time, our state's sword-holding court decided to allow them not to go to war."
Xu Qing stared at this message and pondered for a long time. He stood up and walked around the Shuling Office.
The eyes are sometimes determined and sometimes hesitant, as if weighing.
Qing Qiu and Ning Yan, who were standing by, had rarely seen Xu Qing so hesitant. Even when Hei Tian was the son of God, they had never seen Xu Qing like this. So after they looked at each other, they instinctively did not dare to breathe.
In this way, after Xu Qing frowned and walked for dozens of steps, he felt the Ghost Emperor's Palace in his body. He paused and looked up at the sky outside, with a decisive look on his face.
"Qingqiu and Ning Yan, you two are in charge of the Shuling Division, collecting frontline information, supervising the progress of material escorts, and granting Qingqiu authority. If there is anything important, you can use the sword-holding palace formation to send messages to my command sword."
Qingqiu quickly raised her chest and was about to speak loudly, but thinking of her own pride, she suppressed her instinct and nodded calmly.
Ning Yan, on the other hand, didn't have so many worries, he declared yes, and then asked curiously.
"Senior Brother Xu, are you going out?"
Xu Qing glanced at Ning Yan and did not answer the question. He did not want to tell others his specific whereabouts before setting off, so he spoke calmly.
"I'm going to pay a visit to the Clothes Control Bureau."
After saying that, Xu Qing stepped out of the Shuling Command without any hesitation. He raised his steps and walked toward the sky. In a few steps, he was above the sky.
The big bird Qingqin squeaked, and three huge heads emerged from the clouds. It looked at Xu Qing excitedly, making swallowing movements, as if it wanted to exterminate the clan.
His right head quickly reached under Xu Qing and carried Xu Qing on top of his head.
As Xu Qing's spiritual thoughts came out, Qingqin's eyes showed a strong look, and she flapped her wings suddenly. Suddenly, the sky in the county capital exploded. With a roar, Qingqin took Xu Qing and disappeared in this area.
.
Qingqin's speed is so fast that it is not much slower than the teleportation array in short distances. But in the long run, it is not as convenient as the teleportation array. However, Xu Qing does not want to reveal his specific whereabouts in advance, although he also understands this possibility.
It’s not big, but you still need to be cautious.
So after leaving the confines of the county capital, he found a teleportation array in the Sword Holding Palace, stepped into it together with Qingqin, who had shrunk a lot, and disappeared inside.
In this way, after many twists and turns, three days later, Xu Qing and Qingqin appeared at the border of Yinghuang Prefecture, outside the Northern Plains.
Although it was noon at this moment, the sunlight seemed to be only bright and without warmth, so the icy wind howled by, setting off a sea of snowflakes that swirled between the sky and the earth.
The cold wind was biting and the earth was covered in silver. Only the Taichu Liyou Pillar standing there in the distance was earth-shattering and gave people a sense of grandeur.
However, in Xu Qing's memory, the countless tents surrounding Taichu Li Youzhu made it a gathering place for human beings like a town.
But now, most of the tents here are empty. The cold wind rushes through, shaking countless tents and making a rattling sound.
There were only sporadic elderly figures, occasionally wrapped tightly, appearing in the cold wind.
These people are not sword holders, but residents here.
Apparently they were left behind by the Sword-bearing Court, and they were not allowed to participate in the war as they were old.
Xu Qing glanced at the black palace at the top of Taichu Liyou Pillar from the sky. He could feel that there were not many sword holders there.
"Taichu Liyouzhu..." Xu Qing motioned to Qingqin to hover in the sky here.
As the clouds and mist gathered due to the arrival of Qingqin, Xu Qing stared at this earth-shattering pillar in the mist. This time, if he wanted to achieve his goal, he needed to verify it with the Taichu Liyou Pillar.
Then Xu Qing suddenly raised his right hand and grasped it slightly in the air.
At the same time, the Ghost Emperor's Palace in the body was running, and the figure of the Ghost Emperor sitting cross-legged and meditating inside suddenly opened his eyes.
In an instant, Taichu Liyouzhu shook violently. This scene immediately attracted the attention of the casual cultivators here and the Yinghuangzhou Sword-holding Court. As their expressions changed, they also noticed the giant shadow of a big bird looming in the clouds and mist in the sky.
"Who is coming!"
After arriving at Yinghuang Prefecture, there was no point in covering up. Xu Qing, standing on the Qingqin, took out his sword and spoke calmly.
"Xu Qing."
As Xu Qing's voice came out and Qingqin flapped his wings, the clouds and mist surrounding them dispersed, and his figure was immediately noticed by the sword holders left behind in the Ying Huangzhou Sword Holding Court.
In other states, perhaps the sword holder would have to identify Xu Qing's name first, and then Xu Qing's appearance, so as to initially know the identity, and then cooperate with the sword wielder to finalize it.
But in Yinghuangzhou, the memory of Xu Qing's appearance was extremely clear to the sword holder.
After all, his promotion and brilliance were witnessed by all the sword-holders in Yinghuangzhou, so after the sword-wielding formations dispersed and Xu Qing's command sword was confirmed, the figures of the sword-holders quickly appeared one after another.
of flying out.
"Xu Qing!"
"It's Xu Shuling!"
Most of these sword holders looked familiar to Xu Qing. After seeing Xu Qing, they all looked friendly and greeted him immediately. One of the sword holders who was responsible for staying behind took a step forward and spoke respectfully.
"Xu Shuling, you want to open the Taichu Liyou Pillar? Do you need our cooperation?"
Xu Qing shook his head. He knew that the ghost cave was suppressed under Taichu Liyouzhu and could not be opened easily, and he was just here to try, so he suddenly grabbed it with his right hand, and the tremor of Taichuliyouzhu suddenly became more intense.
But he understands that he can only do this. If he wants to truly shake it out, it is simply impossible to accomplish with his current level of cultivation.
However, Xu Qing's purpose is not to take out the Taichu Liyou Pillar, but...
"Item Spirit!" Xu Qing suddenly spoke, his voice echoing like thunder from the sky. He was calling the Weapon Spirit on Taichu Liyou Pillar. This was his purpose.
After a long time, as the Taichu Liyou Pillar vibrated, a low groan that spread throughout the world spread from the Taichu Liyou Pillar.
The sound penetrated the sky and shook all directions. At the same time, a pair of huge eyes appeared on the Taichu Liyou Pillar. The meaning of vicissitudes of life permeated all directions. When looking at Xu Qing, there was obvious doubt in these eyes.
This scene shocked the sword-holders here. They naturally knew that Taichu Liyouzhu had a weapon spirit, but usually this weapon spirit was in a sleeping state. The only way the entire sword-holding court could communicate with it was through the great elder.
But now, with Xu Qing's words, the other party actually woke up.
Xu Qing stared at the eyes of Taichu Li Youzhu's weapon spirit, and the Ghost Emperor's Palace in his body was shaking more and more. The figure of the Ghost Emperor cross-legged inside also showed a brilliant light in his eyes.
Xu Qing pondered, feeling that it was not enough, so he waved his hand and used the power of the demon talisman. Behind him, the color of the sky and the earth changed, clouds surged from all directions, and a vague Ghost Emperor Mountain suddenly descended.
"Ghost Emperor Mountain!"
"This this……"
For those from outside the state, they are not that familiar with Ghost Emperor Mountain and will not immediately understand its significance. However, for Yinghuangzhou monks, the existence of Ghost Emperor Mountain is extremely clear. After recognizing it at a glance, each of them
His expression changed drastically, and he was extremely shocked.
Taichu Li Youzhu was also trembling to the extreme at this moment, and the confusion in Qi Ling's eyes immediately turned into confusion, and there was even a hint of excitement.
Seeing this, Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. This time when he returned to Yinghuang Province, everything he did depended on the Ghost Emperor Palace, so he had to verify first whether what he thought was true.
"Qi Ling, do you recognize me?" Xu Qing suddenly said.
"The Emperor is resurrecting!" The weapon spirit on the Taichu Liyou Pillar, after being silent for a few breaths, sent out a vast spiritual thought. It did not answer Xu Qing's question, but said four words that contained other meanings.
This is somewhat inconsistent with Xu Qing's judgment when he came. According to his analysis, it should be something like inheritance.
But it doesn't matter. The awakening of the weapon spirit is in line with Xu Qing's first step plan, so he spoke softly.
"Then, can you tell the Three Souls and Seven Souls about this and tell them...I am here."
If a businessman wants to prove that his goods are good and effective, what he needs is the recognition and trust of buyers.
If a businessman goes over and speaks directly to the buyer, the effect will be very poor. Even if some evidence is produced, the effect will not be controllable.
But if there is a considerable endorsement, such a recommendation from others, it will naturally be different.
This is the reason why Xu Qing came to Taichu Liyouzhu, and it is also the first step of his plan.
Very important.
But if it really doesn't work, Xu Qing has other methods, but they require a lot of twists and turns.
And his ultimate goal is to become a businessman and make a deal with the three souls and seven souls of Ghost Emperor Mountain.
The weapon spirit of Taichu Li Youzhu is his endorsement.
So after a stick of incense, when the weapon spirit of Taichu Liyouzhu passed the matter to the three souls and seven souls in a special way, Xu Qing left here.
In the sky, he stood on Qingqin's right head and galloped away towards the direction of Sanling Town Dao Mountain.
As we headed south, the wind and snow gradually dissipated, and the earth gradually faded away from white and turned into emerald green. Until a vast Yunxian Eternal River appeared in Xu Qing's eyes, memories of the past arose in his heart.
Xu Qing did not expect that he would return in this way after being away for several years. In the silence at this moment, Qingqin made a squeaking sound, pulling Xu Qing out of his memory.
"Senior, it's not easy to exterminate the clan now, but I will look for opportunities." Xu Qing said quickly.
Qingqin felt a little regretful, flapped her wings, and followed Xu Qing's guidance, quickly approaching Sanling Town Dao Mountain. At its extreme speed, it didn't take long before Sanling Town Dao Mountain was in sight.
This place is like a mountain of skeletons, a forest of bones, human skin is glued into pieces, and hair is turned into felt. The wind blows withered hair, turning the earth into black.
Viewed from mid-air, it is even more obvious that the entire place is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, a stinking hell on earth.
In the past, Xu Qing didn't understand why such a force would be allowed to exist by the Sword-bearing Court, but now he knew very well that the Ghost Emperor was not really dead. His high status gave his three souls and seven souls the power of immortality.
This also makes them extremely special. As long as the ghost emperor's divine breath exists, they will not die.
Therefore, it is not immortal, but cannot be destroyed.
Even if they become desperate and give up their independence, the Ghost Emperor... will wake up.
At that time, the life and death of Fenghai County depended on the ghost emperor after his resurrection.
You can't gamble on this matter.
According to the Judgment Palace's judgment on this type of ancient Yun Shen, they must have been extremely hungry when they woke up, and it was not impossible for them to devour an entire state and county.
Therefore, the attitude of successive county governors towards the Ghost Emperor was the same as in forbidden areas.
In the final analysis, the human race is still in decline. If it were the era of the Ancient Emperor Xuanyou, these three souls and seven souls would be suppressed. Even if the Ghost Emperor revives, he will not be able to escape suppression.
As for these three souls and seven souls, they also knew that nothing could go wrong, so they did not go too far to expand their own power, and there were people from all races in the small country who were plundered from the territory.
Xu Qing didn't have a good impression of these three spirits, but now that the frontline was critical, there were some things that he still had to do even if he didn't like them.
With the arrival of this moment, winds and clouds surged in Sanling Town Dao Mountain, the earth trembled, and cracks appeared in the sky. Only two of the three huge peaks that originally existed here are now left.
The mountain where Youjing once stood has long since collapsed, and now only a low mountain remains.
The other two peaks turned into huge seats and remained the same.
On the mountain on the right, around the seat made of the bones of giant beasts, countless dead souls filled the air. A figure with a huge body but as thin as a stick was sitting there.
His whole body was emaciated, and the huge sarcoma filled with blue and red blood vessels on his back was squirming regularly, making a roaring sound like a war drum, echoing around the world and shaking the mind.
This figure is none other than the earth soul among the three spirits, Jueyang Lingzun!
He now raised his head and looked coldly at Qingqin, who was speeding up in the sky.
As for the highest mountain peak next to it, it was shrouded in thick black mist, and the figures inside could not be seen clearly. Only the sound of breathing echoed from inside.
That’s where the strongest soul in Ghost Emperor Mountain, Heavenly Soul Embryo Light Spirit Lord, is located!
Around the mountain, countless Sanling Zhendao Mountain monks felt the pressure from the sky. As they trembled, Jueyang Lingzun suddenly opened his mouth.
"Stop!"
"Gah!"
With Qingqin's ferocious nature, how could he stop just because of Jueyang Spirit Master's words? So after hearing the ferocious voice in response, Qingqin circled Sanlingzhen Dao Mountain and kept circling.
Even the head on the left side spread out, sweeping across the ground quickly, opening its mouth wide, and swallowing up the monks here one after another.
The sound of chewing came out, and the screams echoed, and it seemed that the taste was not bad, so the Qingqin simply fell to the ground with a bang.
Its huge body was taller than Sanling Mountain. It stood there constantly eating snacks that were scurrying away and wailing around, looking at the earthly soul provocatively.
However, it also knew Xu Qing's general purpose this time, so after taking a glance, it raised its right head and sent it to the front of Sanling Mountain, looking down at it.
Jueyang Spirit Master was silent and ignored his subordinates who were running around. Instead, he stared at Xu Qing who was standing on Qingqin's right head.
"I remember you, you little reptile, how dare you come here!" Jue Yang said coldly.
Xu Qing looked at the huge Jueyang Spirit Master in the protective light emitted by Qingqin, with a calm expression and spoke slowly.
"If I am a reptile, then who are you?" Xu Qing said nothing nonsense. The Ghost Emperor Palace in his body vibrated, triggering the demon talisman to be released. Suddenly, the shadow of the Ghost Emperor Mountain behind him suddenly descended.
The majestic body and the vast pressure appeared, and his eyes opened and closed at the moment, causing the color of the world to change, and the entire Sanling Town Dao Mountain to tremble.
But Lord Jueyang looked as usual.
"It's just a reflection of the feeling, and then integrated into the heavenly palace, transformed with the help of the power of the Taixu demon talisman. Although this requires many things to be completed, you are not the only one who can do it. Our three souls and seven souls are still there. What do you want to say?
You are said to be the reincarnation of the Ghost Emperor? The inheritance of the Ghost Emperor?"
Jueyang Spirit Master looked at Xu Qing.
"It's so ridiculous! After all, the weapon spirit is not us. As a servant, its perception is somewhat one-sided. It is also subordinated to the human race. The information you let it convey is of no use."
"This battle is a battle between your human race and the Shenglan tribe. We will not take action. We assume that the ghosts are forced to participate in the war by you, which is our bottom line."
After saying that, Jueyang closed his eyes.
Xu Qing looked calm. He knew that this transaction would not be easy. Given the other party's level, he knew his purpose of coming here. This was normal, so he spoke calmly.
"What if I use the Ghost Emperor Palace to be promoted to Nascent Soul?"
"After the Nascent Soul, the Shadow of the Ghost Emperor can become my Dao Infant, and if I go one step further, I will advance to the realm of the Spiritual Treasure, and use the Ghost Emperor as a secret treasure to merge with the way of heaven."
"At that time, does it matter how I transformed it?" Xu Qing's voice echoed.
But Jueyang still closed his eyes and just spoke lightly.
"The Ghost Emperor has become your secret? The secret treasure in the spirit treasure realm must be plundered from the small world and refined inside. However, the Heavenly Dao is arrogant and cannot be forced even if it is refined. Moreover, it is not one with the Ghost Emperor, so there is no talk of fusion!
"
"What if the way of heaven is my destiny and I obey my orders?" Xu Qing waved his hand, the color of the sky changed, and the mosasaur transformed inside. While exuding the pressure of heaven, it also contained the connection with my destiny, and there were bursts of sounds like
Roaring like thunder, it exploded in all directions.
Jueyang Spirit Master's eyes suddenly opened, and he became moved for the first time.
The black mist on the mountain next to where Tianhun was located stopped rolling at this moment, and the sound of breathing within it disappeared instantly.
Xu Qing continued to speak.
"If I can still be promoted in my cultivation and become Guixu, I can use my Guixu power to transform the world, and then move the real Ghost Emperor Mountain into the ghost world, and cooperate with the Ghost Emperor Shadow that is the fusion of heaven and earth in the previous secret treasure,
Overlapping each other..."
"At that time, I said that I had obtained the inheritance of the Ghost Emperor. Do you still think it is impossible?"
Xu Qing's voice was calm and echoed in all directions.
"It takes too long, and it's unknown whether you can do it!" Jueyang Spirit Master was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice, and his eyes towards Xu Qing became more solemn.
Xu Qing shook his head.
"I don't know why you don't do this. Maybe it's because of your status that you can't do it, or maybe it's mutual checks and balances that prevent you from doing it."
"That's not important. It's not important that you talked for too long."
"The important thing is that I gave a possibility!"
"A possibility that I can accomplish when I grow up."
"And as long as I complete the inheritance, even if I can't completely control Ghost Emperor Mountain, I can still let you break away from the shackles of Ghost Emperor Mountain, retain your own immortality, become completely independent, and gain true freedom.
Arrived."
"This is a transaction. It's just a casual chess game for you. Qi Ling must also know this."
Xu Qing spoke seriously. This was the desire of the Ghost Emperor's three souls and seven souls that he analyzed based on his past understanding and the information from the Sword Holding Palace.
They long for independence, long for freedom, and do not want to lose their immortality.
Jueyang was silent. He had to admit that the hypothesis given by the sword holder in front of him was logical and feasible. It was indeed as the other party said. It was just a casual game. Success was naturally the best. If it failed, they would also
No loss.
Then he looked to the side at the black mist where Tianhun was.
"It's just a casual chess game. It's not worth it to fight the Shenglan tribe for this." A sharp sound suddenly came from the black mist, as if bones were grinding, it was extremely harsh.
Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. The transaction had reached this stage and the value of his goods had been revealed.
In fact, he also knows that this is storytelling, and everyone is not stupid, but as long as his story is good enough, feasible, and logical, then he can attract investment. Of course, the premise is whether it is worth it and how much investment.
Then the next step is to look at the price.
"I don't need you to go to the frontline battlefield to fight against the Shenglan tribe. I just want you to be in the corpse prison and take action once!"
"With one move, in exchange for this free chess piece, I will gain one more line and one more possibility for future freedom."
Xu Qing spoke softly.
This time, he is not threatening, he is truthful, and everything he says is true and realistic. Of course, the prerequisite is that he can grow and be promoted again and again.
So after all, it’s still a story.
But the story is complete, and the price paid is relatively small.
For stupid people, they may be swayed by their emotions and make other judgments.
But obviously these two souls are not the same, so... unless someone gives a better value, otherwise, the possibility of disagreement is very small.
Sanlingzhen Daoshan fell into silence.
