Dominate the Heavens: Starting from the Foreign History of Wulin

Chapter 400 Pang Ban’s New Plan

Ying Yuan and Pang Ban watched Lu Ye and his group leave from afar, and felt secretly frightened.

Pang Ban, in particular, felt the threat of life and death for the first time in his life. His death not only represented himself, but also the rise and fall of the entire Mongol Empire.

Pang Ban just felt thrilling.

After hesitating for a moment, Pang Ban stepped forward to greet him and said respectfully, "Thank you, Master, for your help. Otherwise, the consequences of what happened today would be disastrous."

Ying Yuan said: "Although Lu Ye retreated this time, his power is growing stronger day by day. Forgive me for being frank, but the power he possesses at the moment is not inferior to that of the magic master, and as time goes by, his power will grow stronger day by day. Regarding this, the magic master must make preparations early."

Ying Yuan looked worried.

He knew very well that after Lu Ye gained control of the world, the people of the world would suffer from war.

After hearing what Living Buddha Ying Yuan said, the magic master Pang Ban became more worried.

Pang Ban said: "To be honest, we have been defeated by Lu Ye twice in a row. At this moment, I am no longer sure that I can deal with Lu Ye. Unless the master can personally help us, otherwise, with only Lu Ye and Li Ruohai, we are doomed to lose, and it is impossible for us to compete with Lu Ye head-on."

Pang Ban was a man of great talent and intelligence. After two battles, he had a very clear understanding of the current situation.

The foreign coalition forces are no match for Lu Ye in terms of masters.

The situation is obvious!
On Lu Ye's side, there is Lu Ye, a half-step celestial being, Li Ruohai, a grandmaster, Shi Zhongtian and Bulao Shenxian, two masters at the highest level, and Bai Fanghua, who is comparable to a master at the highest level.

Lu Ye's side has a large number of top masters, and many of them have extraordinary potential.

And the magician Pang Ban is on the side.

The top figures are Pang Ban, a half-step celestial being, and Li Chimei and Hongri Fawang, two masters at the highest level.

Originally, they also had an ally in Nian Liandan, who was a master.

However, in this battle of Yingfeng Gorge, he and his men had actually fallen out with Nian Liandan. Even Pang Ban was broad-minded and would not argue with this despicable man.

but.

With Nian Liandan's broad mind and temperament, how could he dare to trust Pang Ban and others easily?
The alliance between the two sides can be said to be broken without any possibility of repair.

Although the number of masters at the veteran master level in the Extraterritorial Alliance far exceeds that of masters in the Central Plains martial arts world.

However, not all of Lu Ye’s top masters are so simple. They also have a master like Li Ruohai who despises all lower levels.

Under such circumstances, numbers do not give Lu Ye and others any advantage.

"Li Ruohai, Li Ruohai!"

Pang Ban frowned rarely. He knew very well that the victory or defeat between the two sides was entirely due to the existence of Li Ruohai. If he could kill this man in Yingfeng Gorge, then all the crises would be resolved.

"Not bad!"

Li Chimei, who heard Pang Ban's conversation, said, "The enemy is strong and we are weak. We can only defend but cannot attack. In this situation, defeat is inevitable. Is there any way to change the situation? How can we maintain a balance with Lu Ye?"

Li Chimei practiced her energy to feel the breath in her body.

When she circulated her internal energy once again, Li Chimei clearly felt that the "vital energy" that had suddenly appeared in her body and circulated on its own during the battle at Yingfeng Gorge had disappeared into thin air, as if it had never existed at all.

Originally, he possessed two kinds of true qi, and when fighting with a strong enemy, his attack power was doubled. However, at this moment, he has returned to the level of an ordinary grandmaster.

This is a matter of course.

The vital energy in Li Chimei's body was not cultivated by him, but was controlled by his master Ying Yuan.

Ying Yuan wants Li Chimei to obtain the God of War Atlas and make further progress, so the True Qi of Life will remain to help Li Chimei practice and break through.

But, if Yingyuan doesn't want to.

He can easily take back his power and return Li Chimei to her original form.

Li Chimei is a feminine and arrogant person, surrounded by evil masters who do all kinds of evil, such as Liu Yaozhi who is greedy for beauty and Yingfei who defiles good women...

Anyway!

Ying Yuan and Li Chimei have completely different values.

If necessary, Yingyuan might help Pangban and contribute to the foreign countries that may be targeted by the Ming Dynasty.

but.

It is simply impossible to ask him to help Li Chimei make a breakthrough in martial arts.

Not only Li Chimei, but also Zhen Sushan, Meng Qingqing and every other talented master from outside the domain who had obtained the true energy of the God of War Atlas in their bodies, fell back to their original level in a short period of time.

Li Chimei sighed helplessly.

The previous battle was due to the help of the War God Tu Lu's true qi, which allowed them to be evenly matched and remain undefeated. But at this moment, he couldn't even maintain the War God Tu Lu's true qi, and it was even more impossible for him to be a match for the enemy.

Magician Pang Ban, Zhen Sushan, Meng Qingqing and other talented people in the extraterritorial alliance thought about it again and again, but no one could come up with a good idea.

the reason is simple.

On the surface, this defeat was due to Zhen Sushan's poor command.

Actually!
After the real battle, everyone realized that the real reason for their defeat was that they were no match for the masters on Lu Ye's side.

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are useless.

Zhen Sushan took the initiative to speak: "At this moment, the power we have is already at an absolute disadvantage. If we want to reverse this decline, we can only win over allies and unite more forces to counter Lu Ye and re-launch the offensive against the Central Plains!"

Meng Qingqing agreed, "This is indeed the only way. However, although the world is big, there are only a few masters like Li Lao. As for the so-called Grandmaster, according to Qingqing's understanding, at this moment, there are only a few people who are not included in our two forces."

Zhen Sushan said solemnly: "Fuyu Sword Waves and Clouds broke the shackles of the black list masters, and has definitely reached the level of a grandmaster. At the moment, it seems that it is slightly inferior to Li Ruohai in terms of offensive power. However, if it really fights with Li Ruohai, who will win and who will lose is still unknown. Not long ago, Qin Mengyao used Guangchengzi's other shore sword technique to repel the Four Secret Venerables. The fighting power she showed was not inferior to Bai Fanghua at all. Even if she is not a grandmaster, she has fighting power comparable to this level."

Li Chimei added: "The Ghost King Xu Ruowu under the command of King Yan is also a famous Grandmaster in the martial arts world, the best in the world."

Pang Ban said: "The Shaolin Wuxiang Monk has fought with me twice, Pang Ban, and I spared his life both times. He does have the strength of this level."

After thinking for a while, Pang Ban added, "There is also the power behind Zhu Yunwen. Behind him is the power of the Tianming Sect. The Tianming Sect has two masters at the Grandmaster level, that is, Cui Xiuhuan Shan Yuru, and Shan Yuru's junior uncle, the evil Buddha Zhong Zhongyou!"

"In addition, the Shuiyue Sect of Japan also entered the Central Plains and formed an alliance with Shan Yuru."

Meng Qingqing asked in surprise, "What about the Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Temple, which are both well-known in the martial arts world? Could it be that these two sects don't have any masters at the Grandmaster level?"

Pang Ban shook his head repeatedly and said, "If it were someone else, they might not know the background of the two sects. But I, Pang Ban, know it clearly."

"The head of Cihang Jingzhai is Yan Jing'an. If it was 40 years ago, she was indeed very powerful and defeated Shan Yuru who had not made a breakthrough."

"However, at this moment, Yan Jing'an's strength is already inferior to that of a true master, and because of what happened in the past, she was hurt by love and her mind was damaged. She has gradually reached the point of exhaustion. At this moment, her life force is exhausted, and she has only a few months to live at most. Not to mention fighting with others, even if she doesn't fight, it is extremely difficult for her to survive. How can she have any fighting power?"

Everyone sighed inwardly.

Unexpectedly, the famous Buddhist Supreme is in such a situation at this moment.

Pang Ban continued, "Next are the two great monks from Jingnian Temple. Liaowu and Liaojin are indeed famous. Especially not long ago, there was a rumor in the martial arts world that Lang Fanyun had sneaked into the palace, but was discovered by Liaojin's senior brother, Liaowu, and had to retreat. This made the reputation of Jingnian Temple even higher than before."

"However, as far as I know, when Lang Fanyun sneaked into the palace, it was before he met Ji Xixi and traveled around the world. At that time, Lang Fanyun could only be considered to have achieved success in martial arts and had just entered the black list. He was not a true master at all, so it was reasonable for him to be discovered by Liao Wu. The fighting power displayed by the two monks Liao Wu and Liao Jin is still far behind that of Elder Li."

"Not bad!"

Li Chimei also agreed and said, "Liaowu can be sure that he is at most a veteran master. He once teamed up with Zhu Yuanzhang to fight against the King of Yan. The two of them together might not be a match for the King of Yan. If he can be a master, then the King of Yan must be at the level of Lang Fanyun?"

Pang Ban said: "Zen Master Le Jin should be stronger than his senior brother, but definitely not at the level of Master Li. However, even if facing a master at the Grandmaster level, he should be able to fight against him. He is a powerful figure among the old Grandmasters."

The people from the foreign coalition recalled all the martial arts masters from various forces in the world's martial arts world, and couldn't help but frowned secretly.

Zhen Sushan frowned and asked, "Apart from these masters, are there any other top masters in the world who can compete with Li Ruohai and others?"

Pang Ban shook his head repeatedly.

Li Chimei said sadly: "Do you think top masters are all cabbages? There are always some, and they are everywhere. For example, Li Chimei and Ghost King, masters of this level, no matter where they are, are powerful. If a force can have one, it is already powerful enough to dominate the world, let alone several. You can't even dream of it." Zhen Sushan sighed: "These so-called masters, no matter who they are, are not reinforcements that we can attract!"

"There is no need to say much about Lang Fanyun and Qin Mengyao. Even in terms of momentum, the two of them can help us. However, judging from the positions of the two parties themselves, they can never stand on our side. It is destined that there will be no way for us to form an alliance."

"Although the King of Yan wants to seize the throne, he has always hated the countries outside the region. How could the Ghost King Xu Ruowu join forces with us?"

"It seems that the Shaolin Wuxiang monk is in Lang Fanyun's camp now!"

"As for the remaining Tianming Sect members Shan Yuru and Zhong Zhongyou, as well as the Dongying Shuiyue Sect, there is absolutely no hope of winning them over."

Suddenly, a terrifying divine light shot out from the eyes of the magician Pang Ban.

After thinking for a while, Magician Pang Ban said, "Although Lang Fanyun, Qin Mengyao, Wuxiang Monk, and Xu Ruowu are unlikely to surrender to us, they support King Yan and are incompatible with Lu Ye. While we are wary of Lu Ye, they are more wary of him than we are. The enemy of my enemy is our friend. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether we unite or not, because our current state is equivalent to an alliance."

"As for the Dongying Shuiyue Sect, there may be a possibility of an alliance!"

Magician Pang Ban asked: "Do you know why Shuiyue Sect is willing to join Shan Yuru and accept Shan Yuru's orders?"

Zhen Sushan said: "Shan Yuru must have agreed to a benefit from Shuiyue Sect that they in Japan could not refuse. So what should this benefit be?"

Li Chimei said: "It is definitely not a benefit that can be redeemed now. It should be a benefit that can be given after Zhu Yunwen takes control of the country."

Meng Qingqing said: "It's nothing more than an agreement of ceding territory in exchange for peace, right?"

"No!"

Zhen Sushan shook her head repeatedly and said, "It is absolutely impossible that this is an agreement to cede territory in exchange for peace. Shan Yuru is so smart and talented, how could she not know? If her grandson cedes territory in exchange for peace after taking the throne, what impact will it have on the dynasty's rule? So it is absolutely impossible."

"And the Shuiyue clan is not a fool. Shan Yuru and Zhu Yunwen said that after they ascended the throne, they were willing to cede the territory of the Ming Dynasty to Japan. Can the Japanese believe it? This kind of pie given casually without any hope will not get the support of the Japanese at all."

"So!"

Li Chimei said in surprise: "Apart from this condition, is there any other way for Shan Yuru to convince the Japanese to help Shan Yuru without reservation?"

"It's easy!"

Magician Pang Ban drew a simple map on the grass in front of him, pointed to a place on the map, and said, "Look, this is where Goguryeo is currently located. Yan Wang Zhu Di attacked this place in his early years, and later used a strategy of alienation to make this place completely a subsidiary force of the Ming Dynasty. However, it is only a subsidiary force, and it is not yet the territory of the Ming Dynasty."

"In addition to coveting the coastal areas of the Central Plains, the Japanese also have clear ambitions for the location of Goguryeo."

"If I were Shan Yuru, I would definitely use Goguryeo as bait to trick the Japanese masters. If Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, I would secretly support them with military funds and help them attack Goguryeo. And when Goguryeo asked for help, I would never help them."

"This alone is enough to gain the unanimous trust and support of all parties in Japan."

The above-mentioned conditions are the alliance agreement between Shan Yuru and Shuiyue Sect.

but.

The real situation is far from that simple.

The Shuiyue clan secretly planned to use Goguryeo as a springboard to attack the Central Plains.

Shan Yuru can only be said to be even more ruthless!
Although he promised the Japanese and supported them in taking over Goguryeo's land, in fact, he was also planning to take over Goguryeo.

About ten years ago, King Zhengde of Goguryeo attempted to seize the throne with the support of King Yan. Ying Sanhua, the daughter of the previous King of Goguryeo, King Baihua, fled to the Central Plains with her maidservants. In order to survive and avoid being hunted down by King Yan and King Zhengde, she had to change her name and disguise herself as a woman from the Central Plains. She was hailed as one of the top ten beauties by the martial arts people in the Central Plains, "Ying Sanhua, the Queen of Flowers".

After Ying Sanhua had been in the Central Plains for some time, she realized that Zhu Yunwen was the only one in the Central Plains who was qualified to deal with Prince of Yan Zhu Di, so she went to seek an audience soon after. Shan Yuru taught Ying Sanhua and her maidservant Cha Nu Da Fa, and required Ying Sanhua to spread her fame in the Central Plains martial arts world. She should appear to be dissolute on the surface, but keep her innocence in secret. When she had to get close to a man, she would use her maidservant Xiu Se to replace him.

The purpose is self-evident. If there is an opportunity to use it, Yingsanhua will be used to use the Cainu magic to plot against King Yan.

Because after what happened during the Legend of the Two Heroes of the Tang Dynasty, all martial arts forces had become wary of the Magic of the Beautiful Girl. They knew that some women who came from the devil's way, especially virgins, must be strictly guarded against.

Prince Yan is a top martial arts master, and he has a teacher like Xu Ruowu, so he is familiar with various martial arts stories.

If she wanted to plot against the King of Yan, she certainly couldn't use her virginity.

Only after destroying his own reputation could he relax King Yan's vigilance and achieve the effect of hitting the nail on the head.

Simultaneously.

Shan Yuru secretly used the only beloved daughter of King Baihua to gather various forces of the former Goguryeo and easily grasped a large amount of power in Goguryeo.

As long as Japan and Goguryeo are both defeated, it will be her chance to take advantage and change the situation.

At that time, Shan Yuru could completely rely on Goguryeo's subordinates to welcome the Ming army into the city, directly control the entire Goguryeo army, and make Goguryeo a complete part of the Ming Dynasty.

In short.

Neither Shuiyue nor Shan Yuru are ordinary people.

The so-called covenant is nothing more than seeing that the other party is useful and taking advantage of it. If someone really believes in these covenants, then we can only say that he is a fool and cannot blame anyone else.

Pang Ban is extremely talented and he explained the affairs between Shan Yuru and Shuiyue one by one.

Pang Ban said: "Since Shan Yuru can use Goguryeo to collude with people from Japan, there is no reason why our foreign coalition forces cannot do it."

"Not bad!"

Zhen Sushan said happily: "Our foreign coalition forces entered the Central Plains to create chaos and buy time for our respective nations. But Goguryeo is bent on being the dog of the King of Yan. If it weren't for the emergency, even if it wasn't for the matter of Japan, we would have taken action against him. Now is just the right time."

Li Chimei said: "I will personally go to the capital to meet Shuiyue and convey your intentions to the Shuiyue Sect. I believe he will make the right choice."

Pang Ban said: "Our situation is different now. Elder Li must be extremely careful. You need to know that the Ghost King wants to kill you, Lu Ye wants to kill you, and Shan Yuru and other masters of the Tianming Sect may also want to kill you... Elder Li, this time entering the capital, it can be said to be extremely dangerous."

Li Chimei shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I just need to explain how powerful he is. Xu Ruowu won't be stupid enough to become our enemy before dealing with Lu Ye."

"All right!"

Pang Ban sensed it silently and let Chi Mei leave.

Then a cold expression emerged on his resolute face, and he said in a deep voice: "Next, we should settle the matter of Nian Liandan. This shameless villain actually dared to betray us and escape in the middle of a life-and-death battle between us and Lu Ye. If I, Pang Ban, don't kill this bastard, I am simply unworthy of the title of magician."

Everyone looked at each other.

Almost everyone knew that Nian Liandan’s shameless behavior had completely angered the Unparalleled Demon Lord in front of them.

If she really fell into Pang Ban's hands, Nian Liandan's fate would be extremely miserable.

Zhen Sushan said: "The Wala people are quite powerful, and Hanzhang Zhusou is loyal to us. Nian Liandan's matter is just his business."

The magician said, "How could I implicate the entire Wala people because of one person's affairs? Zhusou can rest assured. If Nian Liandan's attitude satisfies me, I can naturally give him a lighter sentence. No matter what, I will not vent my anger on the Wala people because of this."

……

Lu Ye and Li Ruohai left Yingfeng Gorge.

Lu Ye personally protected the law.

Li Ruohai gathered all his life's skills to help Feng Xinglie break the blockade of the magician Pang Ban's mental imprint, and forcibly condense the prairie-burning true qi that his body possessed.

Feng Xinglie, the best master of the younger generation in Baidao, has returned to the level of an ordinary grandmaster.

Li Ruohai sighed and said, "Although I used my own power to help Xinglie gather his true energy again and brought him back to his former peak, Xinglie still has Pangban's three spiritual marks in his body at this moment. With these spiritual marks as a bond, Pangban's spirit can descend into the depths of Xinglie's consciousness at any time and absorb Xinglie's martial arts skills at any time. Therefore, Xinglie's crisis has not been resolved yet."

Lu Ye said: "The spiritual imprint left by the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Method may be difficult for others. But for me, it is easy and effortless."

As he spoke, Lu Ye gathered his spiritual strength, formed seals with his hands, and condensed three seals in succession that hit Feng Xinglie's body, breaking the physical limitations of the demon in his heart.

Boom!

With the breaking of the spiritual imprint.

The true energy of the God of War Atlas, which was originally fighting against the Daoxin Demon, emerged.

Although Feng Xinglie was only an ordinary master, there were two different kinds of true qi in his body. One was the Lioyuan Heart Method that he practiced, and the other was the God of War Atlas taught to him by Ying Yuan.
