Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 688 Xiao Wanjun: Your Majesty, I want to try!

"Changfeng," after a brief silence, Taishang Haotian turned his head and looked at the divine general Tong Changfeng and said, "You said that these people racked their brains behind my back day and night, trying to prevent me from absorbing the power of incense and ascending to the ninth realm. If one day, Xuandan Tianzun suddenly attacks again, how should we respond?"

Tong Changfeng lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and replied: "Emperor, I think... maybe we can try the strategy of 'leading the disaster to the east'."

"Dirty the disaster to the east?"

Hearing this, a sharp light flashed across Tai Shang Haotian's eyes, as if he had vaguely understood Tong Changfeng's intention.

"Emperor, you should be able to realize that Xuandan Tianzun has no special hatred for our Lingxiao Realm itself," Tong Changfeng continued, "His original intention of attacking us is no different from his invasion of Chiyan Realm. He just wants to refine all of us cultivators into pills to enhance his own strength.

"So, can we consider providing him with a completely new world coordinate to induce him to change the target of his attack?"

"You mean... we try to reveal the coordinates of the Great Wilderness World to Xuandan Tianzun, so as to draw his attention to the Great Wilderness World?" Tai Shang Haotian narrowed his eyes.

"Your Majesty is wise," Tong Changfeng said, Tong Changfeng flattered, "Xuan Dan Tian Zun is our enemy, and Zi Wei is also our enemy. If we can let these two enemies fight each other, won't we be able to gain some breathing time?

“We only need to select a few prisoners, tell them the coordinates of the Great Wilderness, and then send an eighth-level cultivator to secretly send them to the Blazing Rock World.

“The Chiyan World is currently the territory of Xuandan Tianzun.

“Once Xuan Dan Tianzun captures them, he will search their souls for information, so that the coordinates of the Great Wilderness can be found from their memories.

“I think that a world like the Great Wilderness, where there are many cultivators but the overall strength is not strong, will definitely attract the attention of Xuandan Tianzun.”

After hearing Tong Changfeng's proposal, Tai Shang Haotian fell into long contemplation again, and finally nodded slowly.

"This is indeed a good idea. I'll leave it to you to carry out," he instructed. "Remember to be careful and cautious and avoid any mistakes."

Tong Changfeng bowed and responded firmly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to ensure that the plan goes smoothly."

After saying this, he turned and left the magnificent hall.

Tai Shang Haotian still stood there for a long time, his eyes becoming a little dazed for a moment.

Inadvertently, his thoughts drifted back to the past, recalling the whole process from fighting side by side with Ziwei to eventually becoming enemies.

In fact, if one is honest with himself, Tai Shang Hao Tian still has some respect for an enemy like Zi Wei. He would rather settle this feud personally than rely on Xuan Dan Tian Zun to deal with this enemy of thousands of years.

However, the situation is special now.

In the face of the life and death of the Lingxiao Realm, his little bit of sympathy and appreciation ultimately seemed insignificant.

"Ziwei, ah Ziwei, when such a powerful enemy like Xuandan Tianzun arrives, how will you respond?" he murmured in his heart.

…………

Wild world.

As the second year of Yuanshi was coming to an end, Xiao Wanjun finally made a major breakthrough in his research on Momen puppets.

On a snowy morning, Gu Xu, accompanied by his guards, arrived at the parade ground on the outskirts of Luojing City.

Xiao Wanjun had already arrived here. Today, she was wearing a snow-white fox fur coat and a cotton hat embroidered with delicate patterns. She put her hands tightly in her pockets, not daring to show them easily.

As the biting cold wind blew, her snow-white cheeks flushed lightly, like the petals of peach blossoms in spring, delicate and charming.

At this moment, she was issuing instructions continuously, directing the monks on the training ground to carry out the final splicing and assembly of the metal puppets in an orderly manner.

Whenever she spoke, the breath from her lips would quickly condense into wisps of white mist in the cold air.

"Your Majesty has arrived--" the guard shouted loudly in a long voice.

Hearing this announcement, Xiao Wanjun and the other monks on the training ground turned around, bowed to Gu Xu, and shouted in unison: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Gu Xu keenly noticed that a hint of surprise flashed across Xiao Wanjun's face, as if she had not expected that he would come here in person on this snowy morning.

"Everyone, please continue with your work. No need to be polite. Just pretend that I don't exist." Gu Xu waved to the monks.

Then, he walked straight to Xiao Wanjun and asked with a smile: "Wanjun, how are you doing?"

"Everything is going well, Your Majesty," Xiao Wanjun replied, "The monks have carefully crafted every component of the puppet according to your drawings, and have engraved all the necessary formations on them. Now we just need to assemble them and inject our true essence, and perhaps we can immediately go into battle and charge into the front."

"Will I be lucky enough to see the finished product today?"

"of course can."

I don’t know if it was because of the cold wind, or the emperor’s sudden inspection that made her nervous, or just because of Gu Xu’s approach.

While the two were talking, Xiao Wanjun's breathing became a little rapid, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes unconsciously shifted downward to look at her toes - of course, with her figure, she couldn't see her toes if she lowered her head, she could only see her majestic and broad mind.

"Just continue with your work," Gu Xu said softly, "Look, these monks don't know what to do without your command."

Xiao Wanjun was stunned for a moment, then said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Then, she trotted to the center of the training ground, making gestures and issuing various instructions continuously.

Under her orderly command, the monks brought metal parts of various sizes and placed them on the parade ground in a specific order.

When these parts were put together, the pre-engraved formations seemed to be activated, flashing with dazzling light. These lights intertwined with each other, forming a series of gorgeous light tracks, making the entire training ground seem like a dream.

As time went by, a huge monster gradually took shape through the joint efforts of the monks.

It was a humanoid puppet about five meters tall, lying quietly on the training ground, emitting a cold metallic luster. Looking closely at its joints, one could see the complex and sophisticated mechanism structure.

The puppet's eyes were closed, like a sleeping giant, quietly waiting for the moment to be awakened.

"If I remember correctly, this puppet requires someone to sit inside to operate it, right?" Gu Xu stared at the huge metal puppet, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked.

"Your Majesty, I want to try it myself!" Xiao Wanjun stood beside the puppet, looked up at Gu Xu, with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
