The originally active court suddenly became silent, as if the central government had lost contact with the localities. The natural and man-made disasters in the prefectures and counties gave many ambitious people the opportunity to realize their ambitions and took advantage of the situation.
"The leader of the Tianli Sect has recruited a group of people and spread the method of condensing incense. What does he want to do?"
"Maybe he wants to make the world more chaotic."
"He's just a little clown, don't worry about him."
"..."
"How is the progress of the army?"
"Xuzhou, Lizhou, Cangzhou, Senzhou..."
"Most of the states and counties in the South have fallen into our hands. Now, we are the most powerful force in this troubled world, not even the imperial court." Li Asheng rummaged through the documents and map, unfolded it and hung it in front of him.
Zhou Hui squinted his eyes.
He didn't need a map to clearly describe the territory they occupied.
There are twenty-one states in the world, and the land of seven states falls into their hands. If they were not afraid that they would not be able to control such a large situation, they could capture more state capitals.
If they develop too viciously, even if they manage to swallow so many states and counties, they will spit them out completely.
The former Juling County Yamen has now changed its appearance with Red Sky Warriors. The Taoist priest in red robes stood up and stretched his waist. The form of writing documents is even more difficult than practicing cultivation.
This is also because he does not deal with government affairs.
After listening to Tushanjun's words, he left these chores to others and concentrated on practicing. Now he has only just left seclusion not long ago.
After unfolding the intelligence report, Chi Xuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Tu Shanjun on the side with great joy and said: "Master, Liangzhou has also been captured. When we go north, the northwest army will not be able to cross this barrier."
At this time, Tu Shanjun has fully recovered from his injuries, and he can also use Chi Xuan's magic power to keep his true body outside for a long time. The magic power of the Golden Core Stage is sufficient, not to mention that in the past three years, Chi Xuan has advanced to the late Golden Core Stage due to the accumulation of resources.
.
The resources in Tushanjun's hands have also been exhausted. There is no way. These things are used to improve Chi Xuan's cultivation, and because of the tight time, a lot of them are wasted.
After passing the golden elixir tribulation, all that is left is accumulation. Tushanjun is also a master-level alchemist. Whenever Chixuan feels a bottleneck, Tushanjun will refine the elixir to help him break through the bottleneck.
In the past few years, he has never been idle for a moment. Tu Shanjun feels that his understanding of alchemy has become a little better. Unfortunately, due to limited resources, he has nothing to do now.
With his cultivation in the later stage of Jindan, coupled with the power of incense and the divine body he has cultivated, Chixuan is fully capable of outbursts comparable to those of Tushanjun who had not understood the true meaning and fought against Tushanjun in Sunset Mountain in Daheishan.
In addition, he, the Great Immortal at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir, who has understood the true meaning, the remaining nine Golden Elixir Immortals in the Zunhun Banner, and thousands of Yin Gods.
This kind of accumulation of combat power is already the limit that Dongtian World can bear. Even if the opponent is once an old monster of Nascent Soul, if he dares to use power beyond the peak of Jindan, he will be thrown out by Dongtian.
Without the seal as a key to open the door, being rejected by the withered cave sky would have serious consequences. And the old dragon's lifespan was not long enough to sustain such an injury.
"We don't have much time left." Old Monster Jing sighed. His body flickered slightly, shaking as if out of frame. He looked at Chi Xuan and said, "The cave sky is about to wither."
Chi Xuan's expression suddenly became solemn, and he cupped his hands and said, "May I ask, senior, how much time is left?"
"It can take as short as a few months, or as long as two years."
"At that time, the withered cave sky will collapse into compression, and you will no longer have..."
In fact, the consequences have been explained very clearly, and they have been explained too many times. There is no point in repeating them, because everyone knows what the situation is.
"Senior's method, is it feasible?"
Tu Shanjun frowned, how could it be possible to stop the decay of the cave sky with human power? Even if they were master-level monks, they dared not say anything to change it.
"As long as the incense Tao seeds are removed and the solidification of Dongtian is released, the external spiritual energy can support Dongtian and stabilize the situation again."
"The upper limit of monks that can be endured will be changed, and at least the lives of this life can be saved."
"Even if we don't do it, Wanfa Sect will take over."
"Wanfa Sect?" Tu Shanjun whispered softly with sadness in his eyes and hope.
Old Monster Jing asked in surprise: "Young friend, are you familiar with Wanfa Sect?"
"Fortunately, I once had a good friend who was a disciple of Wanfa Sect."
A figure flashed in his mind, and he called him Brother Tu with a playful smile.
Even though he was familiar with her, he was familiar with it, and he was not familiar with her even if he was not familiar with her. He didn't know how Jinghong was doing now. As a father, even if he didn't stay with his children due to external reasons, he often neglected his duty.
'Children always need to grow up and shouldn't stay by my side.' Tu Shanjun's thoughts turned around and he felt that staying by his side would be restrictive.
Chi Xuan turned his gaze in surprise. The technique he practiced was from the Wanfa Sect, called "Wanfa Fire Zhu Jing". To be able to obtain such a core technique, Tu Shanjun must be more than familiar with it.
However, Chi Xuan was sensible and didn't say much. The real person didn't want to talk and didn't ask further questions.
"once……"
A look flashed through Old Monster Jing's eyes. Most people would not use this word lightly. Since it was once, then either they had broken up now, or that Wanfa Sect disciple... was dead.
The two of them were silent together.
Tu Shanjun was in a daze, while Old Monster Jing was simply silent.
"Is it time for us to end this?" Chi Xuan seemed to have still not recovered, his dazed eyes gradually turned into determination, and he thought about it day and night to rush to the Imperial Capital to end everything.
However, when the time actually came, Chi Xuan felt nervous and uneasy, as well as a trace of fear buried deep in his heart.
The true meaning of visualization in the sea of consciousness was turning, and the emotions in his heart were completely eliminated.
"That's right."
Old Monster Jing nodded and said, "It's time to end all this." His eyes were full of sadness. All this must eventually come to an end. It all started with him, and it was him who should take action to end it all.
Tu Shanjun didn't say anything. If Chi Xuan's strength is to be improved, he must understand the true meaning. However, the true meaning is not so simple to understand. Comprehension, precipitation, and opportunity are all indispensable.
Therefore, instead of trying to find a way to let Chi Xuan understand the true meaning, it is better to use the remaining resources to let Chi Xuan reach the peak of the golden elixir and raise the Dantian Qihai to the peak.
This will bring out the full power of the soul flag.
Fortunately, Dongtian suppressed the monks' cultivation very well, otherwise Tushanjun would not be sure to face an old dragon who was once suspected of being a Yuanying old monster.
Chi Xuan nodded.
Originally, I wanted to rely on the army to slowly encroach on it, but time will not wait for me. Once the cave sky withers, they are likely to die together. Those with cultivation can protect themselves and leave, but what will these ordinary people without cultivation do.
Therefore, there is only one way to cut down the incense Tao seeds, and then wait for the spiritual energy from the outside world to be integrated and nourished, so that the cave sky can be connected to the outside world, and there will be an environment for continued survival.
One day later.
Chi Xuan summoned the mainstays of Chi Tianhui who lived in Juling County and told them the news.
"Assemble the army tomorrow and march to the imperial capital."
"You should understand why. I have made up my mind, and we have no way out." Chi Xuan stood up and looked at the brothers and sisters walking with him. Even with the support of magic power, they were all different from before.
Already.
Their faces were weathered, and their bodies had a lot of injuries. They walked all the way and faced sieges, the pressure of the army, and the fighting of the monks again and again. Many people around them died, but they
Also let them grow.
"Here!"
"As commanded."
Everyone's eyes were extremely firm, and they all stood up and left their seats.
Chi Xuan had his hands behind his back, and the red Taoist robe on his body was fluttering in the breeze.
He also experienced a lot of wind and frost. He turned back to look at the Taoist temple standing on Chishan Mountain. Chixuan suddenly rose into the sky. In a short time, he had returned to Chishan Mountain.
He took the incense and lit it with an oil lamp nearby. He extinguished the ignited flame, leaving only the curling cloud of smoke. Chi Xuan placed it on the incense burner in front of him. After a long time, he said: "Master, I'm leaving now."
.”
He is said to be a master, but in fact the old man is more like a father.
In comparison, Tushanjun is more like a stern master. Perhaps his cultivation has satisfied Tushanjun, or maybe Tushanjun himself has figured out something, and now he is no longer indifferent and intimidating.
"I will offer you incense when I come back."
Chi Xuan patted the smoke and walked quickly to the threshold.
Just when he was about to step out, he paused again, turned around, stared at the tablet, and finally turned his head, turning into a red light and leaving the Taoist temple.
The army gathered quickly, and they had known for a long time that such a day would come, but they did not expect that this day would come so quickly.
In fact, it is not too fast. The soldiers of Chitianhui rarely think about how to fight. It is enough to do their job according to the orders of the superior generals. They also rarely think about whether they can win or not win.
Even though their lives have gotten better, they still don't have the so-called flame of hope in their eyes, because they don't even know what hope is. They only know that by following the Archmage, they can have enough to eat and won't be bullied.
Actually, this is enough.
…
Imperial Capital.
Dragon Court.
The civil and military affairs of the entire court were silent. This was one of the few major court meetings in the past three years. Today, the court meeting discussed how to block the Chitianhui army that had crossed Longtou Pass, and who should be sent to lead the troops.
On the throne, the current Great Cang Emperor leaned lazily on the armrest, with his huge dragon head resting on his palms, looking down at the civil servants and generals in the court with indifferent eyes, and did not understand the content of the memorial at all.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial."
"explain."
"The anti-thief Chi Tian will entangle an army of 200,000. They have crossed the Longtou Pass and will arrive at the Imperial Capital in the near future. Your Majesty also asks your Majesty to summon troops from all over the country to come to the capital to serve the King."
"Your Majesty..."
"Tell me too."
"His Majesty……"
"You said."
"What do you think we should do about this?"
The Great Cang Emperor was bored and pointed at the incense monks with drooped heads and dejected faces. While he was talking, he was too lazy to maintain his thin bloodline and simply restored his human appearance.
"Stop pretending!"
"What are you doing to maintain the demeanor of this court meeting?"
Emperor Da Cang was too lazy to argue with them. The only thing he had to do was to wait for Zhang Tianbao to come to the imperial capital, and then suppress and eliminate him with the force of thunder.
Tomorrow, the world will still be the same as the world.
It doesn't matter the army, it doesn't matter if there are many monks. When you reach this level, what you rely on is not the accumulation of low-level monks, but the top power that can change the situation.
Zhang Tianbao does not have this power, but he has it!
Emperor Da Cang waved his hand and said: "If nothing happens, everyone can go back."
