Best Ascension

Chapter 468 Bait and Sneak Attack

At this time, Zhao Dutian also figured out something, and immediately shouted outside the hall: "Come here!"

As soon as the words fell, an old eunuch wearing a blue and black robe suddenly entered the palace, knelt down in front of the jade steps without a sound, and said in a soft and respectful voice: "My lord, the old slave is here!"

Zhao Dutian's face was as heavy as water, and he issued the imperial decree without hesitation: "I will pass on my decree, and immediately order Longlin, Jinyi, and Sifang to inquire with all their strength whether there is any sign of army mobilization in the three dynasties of Han, Qi, and Yan. Luo, Tianjue, Qilian and other fortresses and border gates will all be blocked and locked up, and the battle array will be activated to prevent the enemy from knocking on the gate, sneak attack and other changes!
In addition, I issued an edict to restore Zhao Bingzhong of the Zhongzhu Kingdom immediately, ordering him to lead the Hurricane Army and the Peaceful Second Army. After receiving the Tiger Talisman, he immediately entered the camp to prepare military supplies and grass, in case of any eventuality! "

"The old slave leads the decree!" The old eunuch kowtowed respectfully, and then disappeared in a flash.

Zhao Sheng was slightly surprised, although the old eunuch just concealed it deeply, but he couldn't hide his feelings.This person's cultivation base has reached the Jindan Dzogchen realm, and he is only half a step away from crossing the threshold of the Nascent Soul realm.

After thinking about it, he thought to himself: It seems that the eunuchs in the imperial city should not be underestimated, maybe one or two eunuch ancestors will emerge in the future! "

At this moment, Qingshan Patriarch had activated a Wanli Talisman and sent a message to the Patriarch.

When Zhao Sheng saw Zhao Dutian's worried face, he immediately realized that the Holy Emperor had a lot to do, and he couldn't sit still, but because the three ancestors were in front of him, he absolutely didn't want to be rude.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sheng immediately sent a voice transmission to the Seventh Patriarch and the Ninth Patriarch.

Later, the three left in a hurry from the Imperial Study Room, and came to the Hall of Eternal Life to wait for the ancestor's reply.

But half a day later, a ray of clear light suddenly pierced through the roof of the hall, fell from the sky and fell into the hands of Patriarch Qingshan, turning into an apricot-yellow jade talisman.

Patriarch Qingshan held the jade talisman tightly, a ray of divine light shot out from between his brows, submerged into the jade talisman, and his face changed slightly in the next moment.

Without making a sound, he directly handed the jade talisman to Zhao Zhenhai.

After Zhao Zhenhai read the information in the talisman, he also handed it to Zhao Sheng silently.

Zhao Sheng took it, and his spiritual sense penetrated into it, and he raised his eyebrows, and his thoughts were as expected.

Unexpectedly, there are only a few words in the jade talisman, which is simply: "One day ago, Xie Juenan came to Feishengtai, hit it off with me, and asked me about the game. Recently, talk about metaphysics, don't disturb! "

Xie Juenan is just a name, but it can completely represent the Taishang Sensing Sect, because this name means the second Huashen Zhenjun in Central Continent.

In Tianzhu Realm, Huashen Zhenjun has always been aloof, detached from everything, and rarely interferes with mundane affairs.

Xie Juenan took the initiative to come to the door, and the purpose was very simple, just to entangle the Great Zhenjun Jianglong Slayer, so that he could not be distracted for the time being.

It has to be said that the Taishang Sensing Sect is worthy of being the old overlord, and it almost played its cards when it came up.

They told the Zhao family clearly: I want to return to the hegemony of Central Continent. If you, the Zhao family, are sensible, you should take the initiative to abdicate immediately, or you will be slapped in the face. "

Zhao Sheng was very sure that there would be a series of changes in the future, the purpose was only to hit Nantian Zhao's lofty prestige in the world of cultivating immortals in Central Continent.

Everything is for the purpose of re-establishing the golden signboard of Taishang Induction Sect.

From the moment they received the old ancestor's reply, Zhao Sheng and the three of them had realized in an instant: everything was caused by the Taishang Sensing Sect secretly!
After understanding this point, the three of them realized the seriousness of the matter, and immediately recorded the matter in the jade talisman, and sent the Wanli talisman to the Yuanying of the family in Shenlonggu.

Not long after, the Yuanying Patriarchs of the Zhao Clan received the urgent news, and immediately called everyone together to briefly discuss the countermeasures.

On that day, each of the Jindan masters of the family led a Taoist army, and soon set off from Shenlong Valley to the places of spiritual veins and large resource points in various places in the dynasty.

After three days,
In the Hall of Eternal Life, the three of Zhao Sheng each held a stack of urgent reports, and carefully read the contents inside, without any superfluous expressions on their faces.

". Urgent report. The Korean agency army and Ziye raided the Fenghuo pass and fell half a day ago. After the agency army broke through the pass, they are nowhere to be found."

".Gan Dang Province Zuo Bing: Qifeng Mountain suddenly saw wolf smoke, the smoke was blood red, and went straight up to [-] miles! The head of the Sanhuang faction took the initiative to report that the entire Fengyao army is likely to be wiped out. It has reached the level of a hundred people."

". There was a change in the celestial burial, and it seems that there is a phenomenon of corpses gathering. The Heshan Sect has spread a secret report. This matter is a joint effort between the Ten Thousand Corpse Sect and the Blood Demon Sect. The two sects have surrendered many leftists. They want to harm the dynasty. !"

"The Xuanwu Jade Mine in Guhan Ridge was breached, and nearly a thousand catties of black marrow were swept away. The Jindan Daoist who guarded the mine and the eight foundation builders are nowhere to be found, and it seems that they have all been wiped out."

".Dayan Giant Spirit Army left Shangjing a day ago, and they are currently missing!"

After Zhao Sheng saw it, he couldn't help frowning secretly.

Good guy!
Great Zhao only had borders with Han, Qi, and Yan dynasties, but these three dynasties unanimously attacked Great Zhao.

It'd be hell if no one was running around in the dark trying to make peace with it.

Needless to say, it is another bright card played by the Taishang Sensing Sect!
You know, behind Han Qiyan's three dynasties are the Immortal Artifact Sect, the Sky-Splitting Sword Dao, and the Yuanshi Demon Sect.

The Immortal Artifact Sect and the Taishang Sensing Sect have a deep friendship of more than ten thousand years, and the alliance between the two is almost unbreakable.

The disciples of Sky-Splitting Sword Dao are a bunch of sword lunatics who fear the world will not be chaotic. With the endorsement of the Supreme Sensing Sect, this group of fighting lunatics just happily joined in.

As for the Yuanshi Demon Sect, the establishment of this sect has a long history and cannot be remembered, and it has always been the leader of the Central Continent Demon Dao.

For nearly [-] years, although the Righteous Way prospered and the Demon Way declined in Central Continent, the Yuanshi Demon Sect hiding in the wilderness in the northwest has never been destroyed by the Righteous Way, not even once.

Zhao Sheng even boldly guessed: There may be an unspeakable tacit understanding between the Yuanshi Demon Sect and the Taishang Sensing Sect, or there is some kind of unclear connection between the two sects. The sects were all wiped out by the righteous way one after another, but the Yuanshi Demon Sect has always been prosperous and unstoppable.

"Qiontian, Han Qiyan knocked on the gate at the same time in three dynasties, it seems that the plan is not small, and the comer is not kind!" Zhao Zhenhai put down the letter and sighed quite a bit.

"Hmph, with the ancestors here, how can a little Xiaoxiao shake the foundation of the Zhao family for thousands of years! According to this old man, the real intention of the enemy is to damage the prestige of our clan, and plunder the cultivation resources wantonly by the way. The massacre of the people and other actions are just a cover." Qingshan Patriarch said coldly with a gloomy face.

After Zhao Sheng listened, Shen Sheng added: "Not only that, if I'm not wrong, one of us may have an accident, and at the same time a few chickens will be picked out and slaughtered!"

"You mean to kill people and stand up!" Zhao Zhenhai raised his brows angrily, and his face was filled with murderous intent.

"That's right! There are countless forces that vassalize my Zhao family, and there are not a few of them who are loyal. And they are the best targets to use to establish their prestige."

Zhao Sheng's words were quickly confirmed.

Two days later, four bloody posts were included in the thousands of urgent reports.

All the posts are left by the murderer!
In one day, four medium-sized cultivating factions of the "Green Immortal" Shi Family in Xihe Province, the Queyang Gate of Fengbogu, the Lingyu Gang of the Canglong River, and the Liu Family of a thousand-year-old family were slaughtered from top to bottom.

According to the report from the Dragon Scale Dark Guard, the perpetrator's method was extremely brutal, and there were traces left on the scene. The murderer's spellcasting style was biased towards the evil way, and it was suspected to be the work of evil demons and heretics.

At the same time, there were beacon fires in the east, west, north, and north directions of Dazhao. Several fortresses and frontiers were besieged by sudden armies at the same time, and dozens of other state capitals suddenly disappeared.

In addition to these, in the three directions of east, west, and north, many resource points such as mineral veins and medicine gardens were breached, all cultivation resources were plundered, and two Jindan Keqings fell.

Zhao Sheng soon got the news that the Yuanying Patriarch of the family who was in charge of Shenlong Valley finally couldn't sit still, and rushed to various places, either guarding the most important large-scale ore veins, or as a mobile force, protecting the spirit veins while waiting for the enemy. A great look.

Regarding the actions of Zhao Changdu, Zhou Li, Qu Feng and other Taishang clan elders, although Zhao Sheng felt that their concentration was not enough, he could understand their actions.

After all, Da Zhao faced the enemy on three sides at the same time, and there were beacon fires everywhere, and the situation was very unfavorable for the family for a while, which meant that everyone was an enemy.

It was in this situation that Zhao couldn't sit still and choose to attack forcefully!

After all, there are countless caring people watching, if Nantian Zhao's "counseling", it will undoubtedly be a major blow to the prestige.

For this reason, Nantian Zhao's power was inevitably dispersed.

This may be the situation that Taishang Senshenzong hopes to see, and it can be regarded as a conspiracy.

After the ancestors of the Zhao family were mobilized, the situation in Dazhao suddenly changed, and soon stabilized again. The flames of wars in various border provinces quickly stopped, and the number of massacres also decreased sharply.

As time went by, several of the most cunning and difficult enemies gradually surfaced.

The Great Qi Tianjian Army, the Royal Daoist Army of the Dynasty, has all members of the Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator, and the number of the entire army is no more than a thousand.Every Heavenly Sword swordsman has experienced hundreds of battles, fearless of death, and his strength far exceeds that of immortal cultivators of the same level.

The flying artifacts of the Tianjian Army are cloud-piercing sword boats. The speed of this boat is the first among flying artifacts of the same level. It has a strong concealment performance, and it is often elusive. It travels thousands of miles a day and maximizes its mobility. extreme.

The Daehan Army is an elite disciple of the inner sect of the Immortal Artifact Sect. The number is unknown, but they are known as "a one-man army", and they are especially good at controlling organ puppets to fight in groups.

The combat power of the organ army is directly proportional to the number of people. Ten people form a team, and the strength of a team can often fight at a higher level.

Dayan's ten dead soldiers, the number is unknown, the strength is unknown, and all those who confronted them died.This is a terrorist army that does whatever it takes to achieve its goals, and often dies with the enemy in order to complete the task. (The living dead, suspected to be refined by the Yuanshi Demon Sect, usually have powerful dark thunder and poisonous fire hidden in their bodies, and they will die if they touch it.)
In addition to the above three Taoist corps, there are thousands of masked men, whose strength ranges from Qi refining to Jindan.

In addition, there are seven or eight sects and family ruins that were breached in the mountain gate, and there are traces of Yuanying's attack.

According to various signs, many Yuanying Patriarchs have been secretly involved, and those who "accidentally" exposed their identities include the Heavenly Corpse Master, Fucking Ghost Lord, Old Monster Zhengshan, and Moyun Patriarch. .

Three days later, Zhao Sheng, who was staying in the capital of God, suddenly received a messenger talisman from the third patriarch Zhao Changdu, in which he was given a task of guarding.

After Zhao Sheng received this letter, he immediately informed Qingshan Patriarch and Zhao Zhenhai, and then rushed to Qihuang Basin without stopping.

……

The Qihuang Basin is located in the eastern part of Dazhao, and it is a huge crater covering thousands of miles. The Canglong River, which runs across Central Continent, flows through here, splitting the Qihuang Basin in two by the way.

The northern part of the basin is full of spiritual energy, with ancient trees planted everywhere, and many spiritual medicines. There is a second-grade high-grade wood spiritual vein underground, and there is also a large spiritual stone mine, and many spiritual jade crystal marrow spiritual mines derived from the spiritual stone mine.

The southern part is desolate and dead, the surface is rugged, and there is almost no trace of greenery, only the ground is full of yellow rocks and gravel, and many dark mines.

Compared with the north where the spiritual energy is abundant, the southern basin also contains a variety of rare spiritual mines, ranging from five elements spiritual gold to Houtian Geng gold, moonlight mercury and so on.

Since ancient times, Qihuang Basin has been one of the most famous treasure lands in Central Continent, and this place was occupied by Ziyang Sect thousands of years ago.

After the fall of Ziyangzong, after hundreds of years of bloody competition, the Qihuang Basin finally fell into the hands of Nantian Zhao.

After hundreds of years of careful management, this place has been completely owned by the Zhao family and has become one of the most important resource points of the family.

In the evening of that day, a cloud boat broke through the clouds, plunged down, and landed on the square in front of a continuous building complex in the north of the basin.

Just as Zhao Sheng flew off the cloud boat, all the eagerly awaited clansmen flocked into a grand wooden building.

After that, Zhao Sheng lived in the Qihuang Basin.

This stay is just half a month.

In the past few days, Zhao Sheng traveled all over the Qihuang Basin, leaving countless marks along the way.

For half a month, no enemy came here, which made him feel a little bored.

However, he doesn't know that the enemy has actually targeted him.

Who made Zhao Sheng too low-key, seldom made a move in front of outsiders, yet another person sits in the Qihuang Basin
You must know that the extremely rich cultivation resources here have long made people salivate.

As everyone knows, this move just hit Zhao's strategy.

It is difficult for outsiders to know that this unusually low-key Sixteenth Patriarch is actually a late-stage great cultivator, and his combat power can be called the number one in the Zhao family.

In other words, both Zhao Sheng and the Qihuang Basin are a bait deliberately released by the Nantian Zhao family, just for "fishing children" to take the bait!
As the days passed, Zhao Sheng realized that the enemy may come at any time, or it may never come.

It was because Xie Jue could hardly hold Zhao Xuanjing for two months was already the limit.

If you dare not know what is good or bad again, don't blame Zhao Dazhenjun for really turning your face and not giving face!
A day later, night fell.

After Zhao Sheng inspected the mine, he walked out from the entrance, looked at the dim sunset from a distance, and slowly stood still.

At this moment, the ground under his feet split open suddenly, revealing a thick crack more than ten feet long. Countless black air swarmed out from it, condensed into extremely thick tentacles, and rolled towards Zhao Sheng's body. Fast as lightning.

Zhao Sheng's reaction was also extremely fast, and he had already dodged away the moment the ground cracked, narrowly avoiding the attack of the black tentacles.

"Roar!"

A roar came from the crack on the ground, and the next moment, a giant black hand stretched out from the crack, and slapped towards where Zhao Sheng was.
