Daoist priest, stop fighting. The avenue is almost gone.

Chapter 505: Preparation for war, news from Huaxu country, speculation, the Taoist priest's strange three corpses

In the bright and clean study, Ying Si was staring intently at an ancient book with iron pages in front of him. The four words "Hua Xu Country" on the page attracted most of his attention.

At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door, and as the ancient book was closed, the door of the study opened automatically.

Standing at the door was a skinny old man with gray hair and a gaunt face.

If not the master of Tianji Palace of Great Qin, then who could it be?

"Your Majesty, the catastrophe has already occurred. Since the change in the Heavenly Secrets, we have sent more people to set up multiple Heavenly Secrets Sundial Observation Arrays in various sea areas. Now, the array near the West Sea of ​​Dongzhou shows that a powerful force is rapidly moving towards Dongzhou."

Without waiting for Ying Si to ask, the Lord of Tianji Palace immediately revealed all the information he knew like pouring beans.

"Don't panic. Has the formation detected what that rapidly approaching foreign object is?" Ying Si's expression remained calm. He tapped the table lightly with his fingers and spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, according to the display of the great formation, the approaching foreign object is extremely huge. It is very likely to be the Western Land of the Human Realm that has been lost in the Boundless Ocean for many years."

"The celestial phenomenon of the three continents merging into one has now come true. Unfortunately, my talent is limited and my cultivation is shallow, so I have never been able to detect the source of the crisis." The thin old man hesitated with a guilty look on his face.

"Tianyunzi, I handed over the Tianji Palace to you because I recognized your ability. If you are not capable, doesn't that mean I am also a good-for-nothing?"

"Don't be afraid if you have any guesses, just speak frankly. The national teacher once said that we should make bold assumptions and verify them carefully. If we put our heads together, perhaps we can use other means to get a glimpse of the true source of the disaster." Ying Si looked dignified and sat upright, but his words were as gentle as a spring breeze.

Hearing Ying Si's words, the gaunt old man calmed down. He pondered for a moment before slowly speaking:
"Well, since your majesty says so, I will venture to make a guess."

"The human continent collapsed. Our East Continent is the most vast, followed by the Central Continent. However, the West Continent is small and sparsely populated. Compared with the East Continent and the Central Continent, the cultivation resources produced are far from enough."

"Tell me, is there a possibility that the entire Western Continent has been controlled by alien creatures outside due to the sudden changes in the world?"

"Only in this way can the secrets of heaven reveal such amazing visions."

The gaunt old man stretched out his big hand, pointed toward the sky, and said with great fear.

"That makes sense, Tianyunzi, where do you think the West Continent is most likely to collide with the East Continent?"

With a wave of his hand, a geomancy map of the East Continent and Central Continent automatically unfolded on Ying Si's desk. With a stroke of the finger of the gaunt old man, Ying Si spoke again,
"Zhentianhaimen, Cape City?"

"Tianyunzi, there is no time to lose. Now I can only trouble you to lead the Tianji Palace to Zhentianhai Gate to continue the investigation. You can apply for everything you need from the treasury."

"I will also greet them at Zhentianhaimen, and they will fully cooperate with you."

Without any hesitation, Ying Si made the decision without delay.

As the gaunt old man left the study, Ying Si glanced at the ancient books on the table and once again decisively instructed the assistant officer outside:
"Someone, hurry to Zhuilong Mountain to invite the Imperial Master!"

....
....
"National Master, what do you think about this matter?"

Inside the Imperial Palace, a majestic Taoist figure suddenly appeared in Ying Si’s study.

Just a cup of tea time ago, Yi Chen was still arguing with Yuan Jun about what was the amazing wisdom, but unexpectedly, a red-robed officer came hurriedly and invited him into the study.

The familiarity of the words reminded Yi Chen of his first registered disciple who was very "eager to improve", Captain Zhang.

Unable to bear the brunt of the situation, Captain Zhang is now making rapid progress in the Qin bureaucracy, and some people in Qin have even nominated him to be in charge of a city with five peaks.

However, Captain Zhang was obviously very considerate and refused to accept the polite resignation. It was obvious that he had figured out a lot during the time he was with Yi Chen.

"How do you see it? I'll lean on the window to watch."

Yi Chen complained in his heart, but said happily:
"Your Majesty, if you have any ideas, just give the order. Your Majesty will make the plan and I will do it."

As a rough martial artist, Yi Chen is obviously very capable. He is good at chopping people, but not good at those fancy things.

For example, the Tianji Sundial Observing God Array has the same function as the Nima Radar, but it is more than that and is very magical.

However, Yi Chen was not surprised by this.

Whether it is the technological side or the cultivation side, demand always drives technological progress, but the technology tree pointed out by the cultivation side is just a formation.

"Okay, in that case, I will speak frankly. If the Imperial Master has better suggestions, you can also put them forward."

"No matter how we deal with it, war is inevitable. The Imperial Master is the divine weapon that protects the Qin Empire. We must use him as a surprise force to kill him with one strike and not expose him easily."

"My idea is to contact Qing Ping Zhen Jun and Senior Lang Qianhua, the strange doctor, and have them attack the jackal from the outer space thousands of miles away in the sea to see what kind of changes have taken place on the Western Continent. The Imperial Master will follow us secretly and provide us with support."

"Your Majesty, do you mean to use the three of you as bait to test Asuna for me?" Yi Chen's eyes focused instantly, and he immediately realized Ying Si's true plan.

The so-called "plundering the enemy camp" is just a euphemism.

The essence was that Ying Si and the other three were the pioneers who went through the trouble for him and tested Asuna's methods.

"Yes, the Imperial Master is the last hope of the human realm. He must not fall easily. He must be used as our sharp knife to pierce the heart of the outer wolf at the critical moment."

Seeing that Yi Chen wanted to say more, Ying Si waved his hand and smiled.

"Master, if you want to be the first to reach the nearby western land, then there is no need to say this."

"With the combined strength of the three of us, and with you, the National Master, helping us, I think even if there are any problems, it won't be a problem. Besides, the three of us are all great cultivators who have broken through the fourth level of the limit, and we are not mediocre."

"The fact that the National Master has broken through to the fifth realm has shocked me, True Lord Qing Ping, and that strange doctor. As the ruler of the Great Qin, I, Ying Si, cannot let the National Master take the cake."

At this point, Ying Si stood up suddenly and said with a heroic look,

"Da Qin is not only the Da Qin of the Imperial Master, but also my Da Qin."

"I also want to use that outer jackal as a whetstone to accumulate resources for my breakthrough into the fifth realm."

"And the situation may not be as bad as you think, Master. Perhaps the three of us can resolve this crisis without Master's intervention."

As a strong man, Ying Si is undoubtedly proud.

Since Ying Si had already said so much, Yi Chen naturally could not object any more and agreed immediately.

Just as Yi Chen turned around and was about to leave, Ying Si stopped him, took out an ancient book and handed it to him.

"Master, the whereabouts of the Huaxu country that you asked me to track down has been revealed."

"Recently, a dragon turned over in the southwest of Daqin, and a ruin appeared. The spies of the Criminal Court found many ancient books from it, among which there were records about the country of Huaxu."

"This country of Huaxu can be traced back to the period of the Human Emperor. At that time, it was a gathering place for a large and powerful tribe deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains. No one knows what happened afterwards, and this country mysteriously disappeared."

"Master, are you investigating the secrets of Huaxu Country? If you need anything, just ask General Lian. She will tell you where the ruins are and how to get in. Princess Changle has become increasingly lazy lately."

"Is this true?" After a long time of investigation, the Huaxu Kingdom finally had some clues. The history of the strange kingdom in the underworld could be traced back to the Human Emperor period. This news made Yi Chen extremely shocked. The impact of Biasna's coming to the West Continent on Yi Chen was even greater. For this reason, he even ignored Ying Si's teasing towards Lin Luo and him.

"Your Majesty, this is a long story. I will explain it to you in detail after I have investigated it thoroughly."

"When you are leaving for Zhentianhaimen, Your Majesty, please send someone to Zhuilong Mountain to inform me after everything is done."

Yi Chen took the booklet handed over by Ying Si with a serious expression, and immediately said goodbye and left in a hurry.

Looking at Yi Chen's broad and majestic figure, for some reason, a strange idea came to Ying Si's mind.

He always felt that Yi Chen today was a little different from the last time he had dined with him.

It seems - stronger, and more restrained.

"How is this possible? The Imperial Master accidentally drifted into the Demon Realm, and it is incredible that he broke through the fifth realm after returning."

"In such a short period of time, his cultivation level has broken through again. Even the reincarnation of the Dao Master cannot cultivate at such a speed."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

As if he found his outrageous thoughts funny, Ying Si smiled and shook his head, and spoke to the red-robed officer outside the door again.
"Someone, prepare the magic circle for me. I need to contact Master Qing Ping. Hurry!"

With a flick of his wide sleeves, Ying Si walked out of the study with his hands behind his back.

night.

The sky is filled with stars.

A majestic light shone through a window. Yi Chen sat at his desk, studying the ancient books given to him by Ying Si. Not only were the doubts in his heart not resolved, but they became even thicker.

The truth buried in the long river of time becomes more and more confusing.

In Yi Chen's mind, the memory of his previous trip deep into the underworld left him an indelible impression.

According to the fragmentary records in the ancient iron pages, which are corroborated by the history books of the human race, the country of Huaxu suddenly disappeared one day after the emperor of mankind became enlightened. It was recorded as an interesting story in the ancient books and included in the notes.

The iron pages of the ancient book are deep green in color, with raised characters on the pages. They are exactly the regulations for books from the Human Emperor period. They are definitely cultural relics, and there is no doubt about them after being surveyed by the masters of the Qin Dynasty.

So if the records in this ancient book and manuscript are correct, why did the country of Huaxu mysteriously disappear and then reappear in the underworld?
Such major events should not be so hard to find. The human race began to rise since the Human Emperor period and dominated the world. Such major events should be recorded in many ancient books.

However, if it were not for this coincidence that they found some news about the Huaxu Kingdom, the Qin Dynasty would have found nothing after searching for a long time. It was as if an invisible hand had wiped out all the news about the Huaxu Kingdom.

Such strength and power.

A ray of light suddenly flashed through Yi Chen's mind.

"Your Majesty, is that you?"

The Human Emperor was the common ruler of the world at that time, with unparalleled authority.

Only he could erase something so cleanly over such a long period of time.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the history book of human race is "first man came, then heaven".

Yi Chen: “…” Could it be that the Underworld is still in front of the Human Emperor?

A thought suddenly popped up in Yi Chen's mind.

Whether it was Tianzhu or Ying Si, Yue Qingping told him little stories about the courtyard.

In the story, the Human Emperor calculated the will of heaven and realized that the future destiny would change and belong to other ethnic groups. Only then did he sacrifice himself in a selfless and fearless spirit to suppress the will of heaven. Later, the owner of the courtyard woke up and set the rule that those who were in the fifth realm were stopped from becoming the master of the Tao.

Nowadays, the saying of breaking the limit of human realm is nothing more than expanding upon the realm of palm of the way and raising the combat power to the extreme.

Only the reins around the necks of the demons have been slightly loosened in recent years, but it has not been completely out of line.

"Damn it, what exactly is hidden in the history of the Human Emperor? What is the underworld? Why did the Huaxu Kingdom fall? Why did the Human Emperor go to great lengths to erase the information about the Huaxu Kingdom? Did the Human Emperor really unite with the Tao to deceive the will of heaven?"

"If that's the case, why doesn't the Emperor do it more cleanly?"

An invisible hand erased the news about the Huaxu Kingdom, but left a clue as if it was a secret of heaven. This twisted behavior made Yi Chen imagine a lot, as if someone was deliberately conveying some information.

An immature guess suddenly flashed through his mind, and was then hidden deep in Yi Chen's heart.

There were too few clues and he had no more puzzle pieces to piece together the truth of what happened back then.

"Perhaps after resolving this disaster, I will take the initiative to go to the underworld."

Yi Chen sighed, suppressed his wandering thoughts, and cast his gaze on the three death row prisoners in the room who were sleeping like babies.

As the battle was approaching, he wanted to develop his strength to advance to the 25th level of his true skills.

For example, there are three figures who are now staying in his Pure Yang Flame Prison like a big boss.

The three corpse spirits.

The first one is a white figure representing greed, which is the manifestation of the Supreme Corpse God Peng Hou.

The second one is a green figure representing anger, which is the manifestation of the corpse god Peng Zhi.

The third one is a grey figure representing lust, it is the Lower Corpse God Peng Jiao Ning.

Under Shen Hong's amazing wisdom, "The Martial God Technique of Killing the Three Corpses" actually went the other way and practiced it in reverse to become "The Martial God Technique of Nourishing the Three Corpses". Yi Chen had never expected such a change.

This way of playing is no less than someone holding Marxist-Leninist scroll upside down and practicing a peerless magic skill. The flexibility of the body and the spirituality of the deep red made Yi Chen astonished.

So smart.

His golden finger could actually use the method of proof by contradiction, and he created these three weird things in front of him inside his Pure Yang Fire Prison.

"My stupid main consciousness, have you brought the condemned prisoner here? Come and let your uncle Peng Jiao show off my magical powers."

"You have found a treasure because you can condense the Three Corpses Yuan Shen like me. Just wait for the wealth to fall on your head in the future."

Inside the Pure Yang Prison, the tallest grey figure was the Three Corpse Gods Peng Jiao, who represented lust, spoke first. Before Yi Chen could even think to speak, one of them started spitting out vulgar words.

"That's right, stupid main consciousness, why do you have to deal with death row prisoners? There are so many living people on the mountain, why don't you just grab three of them and beat them into living dead?" The green soul representing anger and desire also said immediately, with an extremely cruel and urbane look.
