"Your injuries this time are too severe."
Wood Sword Immortal Song Yannian raised his hand and drew out a ball of blood from Chu Xisheng's body.
This was when he used the Heaven-cutting method to forcibly intercept and extract part of the Heavenly Rules from Chu Xisheng's body.
But currently he can only extract most of them.
After all, Wood Sword Fairy is not really here.
His true body is still on the Heavenly Candle Star, resisting the wrath of several emperors and ancestor gods.
Therefore, the remaining most difficult ones can only be done by Chu Xisheng himself.
However, Chu Xisheng felt much more relaxed all over. He looked at his internal organs with a grateful look on his face: "Thank you, Sword Immortal, for your help."
During those three hours in the Secret Realm of Time, most of the easily eradicated powers of heaven were eradicated from his body.
The rest are more tricky and difficult to deal with.
If he had to solve it himself, it would take him three to five days.
Mu Jianxian's finger saved him half of the healing time.
"It's a small effort, but it's nothing compared to the adventure you've taken."
Mu Jianxian looked at the 'Nine-Yao Divine Wheel Sword' behind Chu Xisheng: "The mother tree of creation has lost its spiritual intelligence, only instinct remains. I am making very smooth progress in it. In two months, you can
Bring your Jiuyao Divine Wheel Sword to my clone in the Wuxiang Mountain."
He then raised his hand and threw some stones at Chu Xisheng: "There are also these fragments of the Divine Contract Sky Stele, which I found in Tianzhuxing half a month ago.
This should be something belonging to Zhu Guangyin, hidden in the core of Tian Zhu Xing. The previous Lord Tian Zhu Xing was reluctant to become the true spirit of Eternal Sky Law, and he was even more squeezed out after I commandeered Tian Zhu Xing.
Go down. With his ability, it is estimated that he cannot enter the core layer of the Heavenly Candle Star, so he let this thing remain."
"oh?"
Chu Xisheng perked up.
The number of fragments of the Divine Contract Heavenly Stele given by Wood Sword Immortal was roughly equal to what he gained from the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace.
Put together, these fragments can already occupy a little more than one-tenth of the entire Divine Contract Sky Monument.
This does not include the fragments under the national defense formation in Wang'an City.
In addition, the fragments he holds seem to be the core part of the Divine Contract Sky Monument and the essence of it, so he can use some of the core abilities in the Sky Monument.
After the ancient divine contract was broken, the core parts of the monument were taken away by the most powerful gods such as the Sun God, the Moon God, and the Time God.
Especially the Yang God Taihao who became the tenth generation Emperor of Heaven.
Most of the fragments Chu Xisheng got from Yunhai Tiangong came from him.
The God of Time, Zhu Guangyin, was the most powerful god at that time, only two to three times inferior to the God of Yang and Moon after joining forces.
The fragment of the Divine Contract Sky Monument in his hand is also a key part.
"nice one!"
Chu Xisheng looked at the fragments of the Heavenly Stele in his hand. He was slightly happy at first, and then said with a hint of regret: "What a pity! I heard that after the Divine Contract Heavenly Stele was broken, it was divided between many ancestor gods and emperors. The remaining fragments are extremely large.
Most of them are in their hands. If I want to collect the entire sky monument, it is almost impossible."
He also had the idea of restoring this ancient artifact in the past.
But the more I learned about the Divine Contract Heavenly Monument later on, the less hope I felt.
Originally, this thing was of little help to him and became useless.
In addition to enabling long-distance communication regardless of distance and terrain, the fragments of the Sky Monument can also play a certain role in various divine contracts.
In addition, the Divine Contract Sky Monument can also borrow the power of the Heavenly Rules from the gods whose names are left on the Sky Monument.
However, as Chu Xisheng's level increased, the three-headed gods and many demigods in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave no longer looked down upon him.
As for higher levels, Chu Xisheng couldn't reach them before.
He only has a few fragments of the Divine Contract Sky Monument, and cannot use the power of the Heavenly Monument that is too powerful.
But now he can give it a try and 'borrow' some heavenly power from the middle-ranking gods who have left their names on the heavenly tablets.
"Speaking of the Divine Contract Monument——"
Mu Jianxian's expression changed, and he said something cautiously: "Xisheng, do you know the first generation owner of the Divine Contract Monument?"
"Is he the first emperor of heaven?"
Chu Xisheng put the fragments of the Divine Contract Sky Monument in his hand into his sleeve, raised his head and looked at the Wood Sword Immortal: "She is also the first owner of the "Two Book of Commandments". I have asked about her, but whether it is from my human race
Neither the classics nor the history recorded in the major temples of the Djinn contain much description of the first emperor of heaven.
However, Shen Chihuo said that the first Emperor of Heaven was not only the only one among all the Emperors who was not a blood descendant of Pangu, but also a woman. The experience of this Emperor is legendary. It is said that her heels are from a dog born in the Age of Chaos.
'讹蟟'.
After opening his spiritual wisdom, he deceived and deceived all the way, and gradually became one of the most powerful gods after Pangu. He even gained the trust of all parties, was revered as the Lord of the World, and was known as the Emperor of Heaven. He built the Divine Contract Monument and the "Second Precepts"
Book", thereby controlling hundreds of tribes and subduing the gods. However, it is rumored that after she became emperor, she was forced to kill by all the tribes."
False Cudo - It looks like a rabbit, has a human face and can talk, and often deceives others, talking from east to west, talking about evil but good. Its meat is delicious, if you eat it, your words will not be true.
This is a naturally weak and well-meaning mythical beast with a delicate face, a body like a rabbit, graceful manners, and aura of energy spreading from every move it makes.
After Chu Xisheng heard the gossip about Shen Chihuo, he felt numb.
Who would have thought that more than 20 million years ago, the first-generation Emperor of Heaven, who was regarded as the co-lord by countless powerful innate gods, was actually a 'coddle'?
According to Shen Chihuo, everyone at that time believed that the original body of the first Emperor of Heaven was an extremely powerful god who was born in the ancient times.
The first emperor of heaven fell after her identity was revealed.
Speaking of which, there are many things about the Divine Contract Heaven Monument that puzzled Chu Xisheng, such as the name "Burial Heaven" on the fragments in his hand.
The first Heavenly Emperor fell in 21 million years, and the Divine Contract Heaven Monument was shattered in the hands of the ninth Heavenly Emperor. Why is the name of the Demon God Burial Heaven, who only became a god more than 1 million years ago, also listed in the Divine Contract Heaven?
On top of the monument?
However, we can only wait until we have the opportunity to ask Zang Tian in person about this matter.
"The death of the first Emperor of Heaven is indeed a pity. As far as I know, although this Emperor of Heaven was a woman, he was a hero of astonishing talent and beauty. He was not just a person who deceived the public and deceived the world with lies and fame as mentioned in ancient rumors.
Her methods of deceiving the heavens and illusions were extremely brilliant, and she was the first to discover the turbidity of the heavens and the earth, the first emperor to want to restrain the gods, and to control the changes in the world. However, because of this, she
Perish."
Mu Jianxian shook his head slightly, with regret in his words: "But what I want to say is not her, but her sworn brother, the deceitful master."
Chu Xisheng suddenly frowned: "God Prajna?"
He now has the ability to speak the name of God Prajna without being perceived by God Prajna.
"During the era of the first Emperor of Heaven, Kami Prajna was not only the right-hand man of the First Emperor of Heaven, but also inherited her power after the death of the First Emperor of Heaven. It is said that for the past 20 million years, Kami Prajna has been seeking to resurrect the First Emperor of Heaven. Since the chaos, the world between heaven and earth
He was the driving force behind the several catastrophes."
Mu Jianxian looked at Chu Xisheng and warned: "Xisheng, your recent experience has been too smooth. Several generations of heavenly emperors in your human race include the time god Zhu Guangyin, the sun god Taihao, the bow god Tianyi, and Xuanhuang Shi.
Emperors, all changed when they were the most powerful and proud, and fell into a dangerous situation. There was a shadow of Kami Prajna behind them.
So you must be careful! Be wary of arrogance, impetuosity, and be extremely careful! There are also these two books of divine covenants and precepts. I hope you can use them, but you must not rely on them."
Chu Xisheng's face was solemn, and he raised his hand and hugged Mu Jianxian: "Thank you, Sword Immortal, for reminding me."
He actually felt that there was a force around him, pushing him and helping him.
Chu Xisheng was just not sure whether this person was Zhisou, the mysterious sorcerer Chu Fengge and Shen Ao San said, or someone else?
However, Mu Jianxian's words today gave him a huge gain.
All this time, he had not known what the deceitful master was thinking, doing, and what his intentions were.
Now that he knows what the other party's purpose is, he has a clue to follow.
Even if the purpose of the Lord of Deception is false, it is better than knowing nothing.
What Chu Xisheng didn't know was that while he was talking to Wood Sword Fairy, Concubine Zhuang had already completed her resurrection under the Divine Tree of Creation.
She did not hesitate to use the earth escape method and escaped to the south of the Divine Tree of Creation.
While the eyes of the gods were still locked on Chu Xisheng, while the many giant spirits under the God of Creation tree and the slave aliens were cleaning up the mess, she desperately escaped outside.
But when she reached the outer edge of the canopy, she gradually realized that something was wrong with the surrounding situation.
Concubine Zhuang obviously tried her best and used the escape technique without any reservation, but her position was still at the edge of the crown of the Divine Tree of Creation.
What's even more terrifying is that she seems to be circling in circles, and the diameter of the circle is no more than ten miles.
And in the perception of Concubine Zhuang's five senses, she has always been walking in a straight line.
"who is it?"
Concubine Zhuang stopped immediately.
She knew that the person who intercepted and confused her senses must be an extremely powerful being who was far superior to her.
So it's useless no matter how she escapes now.
Concubine Zhuang shuddered all over.
She is afraid, afraid of the unknown, afraid of death.
Chu Xisheng’s cleaning just now was very ‘clean’.
Today, the Daluo ant tribe has died so much that she is the only one left.
Concubine Zhuang can't help but be afraid, she can't help but be afraid.
She now bears the hopes of the entire family.
If something happens to her now, then the entire Daluo Ant Clan will be completely gone.
In the next moment, she heard a soft voice with a smile coming into her ears: "Come out, I won't kill you."
Concubine Zhuang was extremely uneasy, but she still followed the instructions and used the earth escape method to penetrate the soil layer up to two hundred feet deep.
She immediately saw a young man in human form, standing in the air not far in front of her.
He has a handsome face, a tall and frail figure, and a carefree and unrestrained attitude. His temperament is like the blue sky, white clouds, mountains and flowing water.
The young man also has a pair of golden vertical pupils, which is impressive.
He smiled slightly, his smile was comfortable, wise and heart-warming.
Concubine Zhuang only glanced at this young man, and she felt inexplicably at peace.
The anxiety, fear, rage, hatred and other emotions in her heart all disappeared.
"I need you to do something for me."
The young man walked in the air, walked up to Concubine Zhuang with a smile, and looked down at her: "As a deposit, I can give you an identity and a useful body first, are you willing?"
At this time, Concubine Zhuang has returned to the form of the Da Luo ant tribe.
After the parasitic rebirth, she had lost her original pseudomorphic body.
"I do!"
Concubine Zhuang nodded her head without hesitation.
For some reason, she was instinctively willing to trust the unknown young man in front of her.
What's more, she knew better that she had no choice now.
"very good."
The young man smiled slightly and looked at the sky above with joyful and unpredictable eyes: "It just so happens that this matter is also related to your enemy."
He was very curious, what kind of person was trying to disrupt his plan?
Is it the Wuji Sword Master himself, or is there someone else behind him?
But it doesn't matter, everything is as planned.
They are really struggling.
But they will eventually find that all their efforts will become a rope around their necks.
So the young man now actually has some expectations.
What kind of wonderful performances will these poor people bring him next?
This drama, this chess game, has become more and more exciting.
※※※※
At the same time, in the south of the Tiebi Mountains.
Emperor Jianyuan was once again entering Wang'an City, guarded by tens of thousands of cavalry.
He sat upright on the chariot, his eyes were like torches and his expression was majestic.
The self-centered aura of that faction was the same as when he initially quelled almost all civil strife in the Daning Dynasty twenty-five years ago. His majesty was majestic and could not be offended.
However, anyone standing near him could clearly see the green aura covering Emperor Jianyuan's face.
These close associates of Emperor Jianyuan also understood where His Majesty's anger came from.
After the defeat in Huaizhou, the imperial court suffered a series of blows.
First, the Tieqi Gang's army chased them to the north; then there was King Xiang's rebellion, and millions of troops advanced into Wang'an City; then Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Tiezhou, Huizhou and other places changed their flags; and then there were
It was a large-scale wave of resignations. Bureaucrats in many places used the excuse that the emperor raised Wangtianhu, released the ant tribe, colluded with giant spirits, evil spirits, and corpse tribes to write a dictionary and leave with a seal.
At this time, more than half of the entire China was no longer owned by the imperial court.
They also almost lost Heluozhou and Wang'an City.
It wasn't until one day ago that they defeated King Xiang's army and opened the way back to Wang'an City.
However, at this time, anyone could feel the decline of Daning's country.
This can be seen from the crowd around the city gate.
When the emperor returned to the capital, only a few ministers and gentry were waiting in front of the city gate.
Including the generals at all levels who stayed behind to guard Wangan, the total number was less than 2,000.
This is definitely not the same as the grand occasion when hundreds of thousands of people gathered when the Emperor visited Beijing twenty-five years ago.
——This shows that the Daning court has lost the heart of the world’s gentry!
In addition, the number of people inside Wang'an City is also much less.
Walking from the city gate, there were only a few people kneeling on the left and right of the Qinglong Royal Road. Many of the shops along the street were closed, and the entire royal road was deserted, giving off an air of depression and decline.
After King Xiang raised his flag and headed north, although he failed to break through the defense lines around Wang'an City and the key military forts, the residents in Wang'an City were still affected.
Due to the lack of food in the city, many people were unable to make ends meet and were forced to leave Wang'an City.
Just when Emperor Jianyuan's carriage passed the first crossroad, he raised his hand and waved away the people around him. Then he sighed and said: "I think back to twenty-five years ago, when I visited Beijing from Tiezhou to the north, how could I have thought of it?
Will I have this day too?"
He smiled self-deprecatingly: "Master, what do you think?"
Just as Emperor Jianyuan was speaking, Imperial Master Yu Kunlun happened to turn into a ray of green light and landed on the edge of the chengyu.
His brows frowned slightly.
Yu Kunlun knew that Emperor Jianyuan was questioning him, and expressed dissatisfaction at the same time.
Although the Battle of Huaiyin was promoted by Emperor Jianyuan, Yu Kunlun was the one who executed it, and his sins were not small.
Especially Chu Ming's betrayal, he cannot escape the blame
He carefully looked at Emperor Jianyuan's expression, and then cupped his hands with some surprise: "Unexpectedly, Your Majesty is so depressed and depressed."
Emperor Jianyuan picked up the wine glass next to him and chuckled: "When Huaiyin was defeated, I not only lost millions of elite soldiers, but also lost most of my country.
Nowadays, all the wealthy families in the world are turning their heads towards the rebels. Even the many local officials under the rule of Daning are scrambling to change their banners. Even the Daning clan is alienated from me. You let me
How not to be depressed? How not to be depressed?”
The corners of his lips were raised coldly, and the ridicule in his eyes gradually turned into anger: "Da Ning is about to die! Your so-called Holy Emperor plan will also be in vain. Now I can only hope that Chu Xisheng will die in the Fortune Tree.
But even if Chu Xisheng dies, Qin Muge will probably still be there. Haha——"
"Your Majesty!" Yu Kunlun's face remained unchanged, and his voice was calm, interrupting Emperor Jianyuan's words: "Your Majesty, you still have two states of Heluo and Luo. One state can be the power of ten states. In just one year, Your Majesty has another
It is possible to raise tens of millions of troops. Moreover, the financial and human resources of Yongyang and Yangzhou are the best in the world."
This is the place with the most dense population, the richest products, the strongest martial arts, and the most capable soldiers in the entire China.
It was the foundation for the two generations of Daning Taizu and Taizong to dominate the world in the past.
"Ten million troops? How can I still have so much money? If it's ten pieces of money, not even a few people in Heluo Prefecture are willing to accept it."
Emperor Jianyuan turned his head and glanced at both sides of the street, and the anger in his eyes became even more intense: "Now I have lost my heart, and I have no hope at all! It is already difficult to rule the two states of Heluo and Luo, let alone raise money and food, and collect and distribute troops.
troops!
If I don't know whether to live or die and continue to increase taxes, I'm afraid that before Chu Xisheng's army arrives, these wealthy families in Heluo and Luozhou will take my head and sacrifice it to the traitor!"
——These ant people, they have forgotten who brought them thirty years of peace and prosperity, and who relieved them of so many exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes?
Now, because of his issue, which was worth ten coins, because of a big defeat, because of a sky-looking jade bird, and because of a single word from the three generations of Holy Emperors, he decided to betray him!
These are all ungrateful people!
And those aristocratic families should all be killed!
Over the years, how much blood have they sucked from Daning's body? How many benefits have they gained?
Now that I see the decline of Daning's power, I can't wait to join the new master!
Emperor Jianyuan couldn't help but smile sarcastically,
Chu Xisheng relied on force and had an extremely harsh attitude towards the aristocratic family and Jianghu sects.
What he did was to reduce rents and interest rates, divide the land, and suppress mergers.
It is said that the latest government decree stipulates that the farmland of a household cannot exceed 100 acres. If the farmland exceeds 100 acres, the tax will increase by 30%. If the farmland exceeds 1,000 acres, the tax will increase by 50%.
The Iron Banner Gang also issued a "Junhu Order" to the subordinates, which stipulated that all the children of a household have the right to share the land equally, and they will not interfere with the frivolous wealth such as gold and silver in merchant stores.
This is obviously to cut off the lifeblood of those wealthy families.
If these people fall over, they may not have a good life.
"What's ridiculous!" Emperor Jianyuan said with a gloomy face: "I originally had the help of the gods and could use the hands of the gods to quell the rebellion. However -"
However, because of the "yin and yang", the gods are also more afraid of him.
Although the gods were on guard against Chu Xisheng, they were even more afraid of him, Jianyuan.
"If Your Majesty is worried about the people of Heluo and Luozhou, I have a way to solve it."
Yu Kunlun said calmly: "I wonder how courageous your Majesty is, do you believe me or not?"
"oh?"
Emperor Jianyuan looked at Yu Kunlun noncommittally: "Come and listen to what the Imperial Master has to say."
To be honest, his trust in Yu Kunlun is limited now.
However, this is the only arm he can rely on now, which is at least more trustworthy than the Grand Master.
Not long ago, during the battle between him and King Xiang that lasted for nearly a month, Grand Master Dugu Shou had been standing still in the north.
They are really under heavy pressure in the north.
On the front line of Youzhou, there are eight million elite troops pressing down.
Later, the border troops in Tiezhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou and other places defected, causing Daning's northern defense line to completely collapse.
However, at that time, Chu Xisheng was in the northern China, and the Northern Territory General Administration in charge of Chu Yunyun was also investing a lot of manpower to resettle those Ice City survivors in Yanzhou, but they were actually unable to go south.
Therefore, as long as the Grand Master is willing, he can still draw one or two million people from the northern defense line to help him put down the rebellion of King Xiang.
However, the Grand Master seemed to have ignored King Xiang's rebellion and sat back and watched the battle that took place in Heluo.
Emperor Jianyuan knew what Dugu Shou was thinking.
Dugu Shou doesn't mind changing to another emperor.
The old man was even looking forward to King Xiang's ascension to the throne, and he was not afraid of being informed of his intentions.
Emperor Jianyuan thought about this and couldn't help clenching his fists, and the bones in his body made a "clicking" sound.
However, his attention was immediately attracted by Yu Kunlun
"Your Majesty! There are approximately 1.7 billion people in Heluo and Luozhou."
Just as Yu Kunlun was speaking, a huge crystal dragon suddenly shuttled down from the sea of clouds in the sky and hovered above them.
Yu Kunlun looked at Emperor Jianyuan: "As long as Your Majesty is willing, I can make them loyal to Your Majesty. From now on, people's hearts will be the same! Even including all the magicians and martial arts cultivators in these two states."
Emperor Jianyuan's pupils suddenly shrank slightly.
Could it be that Yu Kunlun's method was to make all the people in Heluo and Luozhou fall into a dream and fall into illusion?
However, under the current situation, only such daydreams can allow him to win over the hearts of the people in Heluo and Luozhou and reorganize the army.
If this Hidden Dragon exerts its full strength and cooperates with the corresponding formation, it seems to have such ability——
Emperor Jianyuan's expression remained unchanged: "What about Chu Xisheng? Chu and Qin will not just sit there helplessly."
"It doesn't matter. Just now, I received good news."
Yu Kunlun's tone was still calm: "Chu Xisheng succeeded. The gods were forced to give in and ordered the Lord of Youdu to join forces with the Lord of Black Water to destroy the source of life of the Daluo Ant Clan. Chu Xisheng said in Yi
After destroying all the Daluo ants, escape from the divine tree of creation."
At this moment, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, showing genuine joy.
Emperor Jianyuan's pupils opened slightly, thinking: What kind of good news is this? It couldn't be worse.
Not to mention the amazing strength and courage shown by Chu Xisheng in this battle.
Just the complete solution to the Daluo Ant Clan was enough to make the northwest states and countless human heroes turn to him.
Emperor Jianyuan then thought thoughtfully: "You mean after this battle, those gods will be more vigilant against him, and even take revenge? But don't forget, they are also guarding against me."
"We can reach a one-year peace agreement with Chu Xisheng."
Yu Kunlun's expression was very complicated: "I have already contacted the Wuji Sword Lord about this matter, and the conditions he offered are exactly what we can achieve, and they are not too harsh."
Emperor Jianyuan was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes began to shine: "Master, please tell me, what are the conditions?"
——Chu Xisheng is actually willing to negotiate for peace? Negotiating peace with the imperial court when a little push can bring down the entire Daning?
This guy is actually stupid enough to give him a chance to regroup!
Yu Kunlun said almost word by word: "Stay in the capital, Minister of Punishment, and Chu Tathagata! He wants your Majesty to bury him in a coffin with your own hands and send him to the Western Mountain near Xiushui County for burial."
When Emperor Jianyuan was on his own campaign, he appointed nineteen princes to supervise the country. He also worshiped Chu Tathagata, the Minister of Punishment, to stay in the capital and take charge of the internal and external defense of the capital.
Emperor Jianyuan expected that Chu Tathagata would have no other way out except for working diligently and faithfully.
In the recent battles in which King Xiang's army was defeated, Chu Tathagata showed his extraordinary ability and omnipotence in military and political affairs, which can be said to be the greatest contribution!
"Chu Tathagata?"
Emperor Jianyuan was startled, and then he shuddered all over his body and got goosebumps.
Could it be that Chu Xisheng wanted to bury all of their enemies alive?
Also, is this his secret method?
Doesn't this make his divine will to touch the death knife more powerful?
