Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

It was a vortex full of soft light, and everyone in the Tianshi Mansion was ready to fight the moment the vortex appeared.

Because they all know that there is no such vortex of light in the process of opening the battle.

Moreover, that vortex looks like an eye.

Just when everyone was staring at the vortex, an inexplicable pressure suddenly appeared in everyone's heart.

Trembling pressure and majesty.

This feeling does not feel violent, but it is enough to make everyone fearful, and even turn around and run away—the vortex seems to be able to see everything, and it is difficult to even look directly at the mind.

It's just that the people here are not ordinary people.

The celestial masters felt pressure in their hearts, but they never avoided the vortex.The holy master felt the coercion that seemed to show his irresistible power, but he was laughing instead.

And Xia Yuxiao, who was stared directly at by the whirlpool, as the weakest human being here, should have been the first to collapse.

But the fact is, she stared at the vortex calmly with those golden eyes.

She is the eye of the entire formation, if she is in a mess, the formation will fall short.

At this time, that vortex appeared...

She wanted to laugh instead.

It seems that the vortex—or the owner of that gaze, also knows that this big formation is not a good thing for him... or for her, it, or him.

The vortex and its coercion probably appeared just to make her and the people present flustered or even collapsed.

She was not confronting that vortex, but was really looking at the owner of the vortex.She should go crazy, but...

If she went crazy or flustered because of that so-called gaze, how could she get the approval of the late emperor and ancestors to ascend the throne?

Her ears were ringing, the pressure felt by her body was gradually increasing, and her heartbeat was accelerating. Everything seemed to be forcing her to expose her weakness and run away, but Xia Yuxiao did not.She felt the feeling of dying, but she still stared at the vortex without moving her eyes.

The vortex dissipated, and all coercion and abnormalities in physiology and psychology disappeared in an instant.

Until then, she felt dizzy.

"His Majesty?"

Zhang Tianshi reminded her.

Xia Yuxiao came back to her senses, she looked away, and then said flatly:

"keep going."

Chapter 63 time

The so-called "sacrifice" this time was extremely large.

For most of the profound practitioners of Great Xia, they can easily feel the changes in the dragon veins.The caves and blessed places carefully selected by many profound practitioners are actually located along the line of the dragon vein and its surroundings.

Qin Ji also felt this change.

Tai'an City was built on the dragon veins, especially in Daxia's palace, there were dragon veins passing through the ground. When the dragon veins changed, Qin Ji felt a little restlessness in the spiritual energy all over his body.

"what happened?"

Qin Ji frowned.

Lingyan, who was resting on her stomach, noticed the abnormality even more. She tried to use her probing spell to see what was wrong with her surroundings, but was immediately stopped by Qin Ji.

Her meridians are being recuperated. If she goes to investigate rashly now, if someone doesn't want her to know and disrupts her spell with a backhand, it may have a certain impact on her meridians.At this time, it is better to be safe.

"Master, it seems that there is a problem with the dragon vein."

Even without using magic to detect, Lingyan can still be very keenly aware of the changes in the spiritual veins under her feet.If the original dragon vein was a torrent of spiritual energy, then the current dragon vein seems to have been drained by governance, and it has become much more stable.

In fact, this change has no big impact, because even if it is a roaring torrent of spiritual energy, practitioners will not really go to take a bath in the torrent of spiritual energy. At most, they will just absorb a little spiritual energy on the dragon veins.

However, being able to control the dragon's veins is not something that can be handled by just finding a master.

Qin Ji thought for a while.

Just now Master Ling said that he still had other things to do, and not long after he left, the dragon veins changed... Today is Xia Yuxiao's last day to prepare for the ceremony...

I am super, it can't be the group of people from Daxia Shifu preparing the whole big job! ?

...........................

On the altar, Xia Yuxiao was still standing there, but the celestial masters around her were already busy.

"Check the situation of each point in Daxia."

Under Zhang Tianshi's command, all the Daxia masters are rapidly passing through the dragon veins to determine the operation of the formations far away in Daxia.

After the sound of reporting normal was spoken, the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion who were in charge of recording quickly and accurately checked all the array points set in advance, and then made a conclusion of omissions.

"Your Majesty, the formation has been completed, you can come down now."

Zhang Tianshi said.

Xia Yuxiao nodded and moved down the altar.

"Master Zhang, this formation is sure to work, right?"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Tianshi Mansion's hundreds of years of accumulation have led to the opening of the current formation. Although you think it seems abrupt that the entire formation took only three days to successfully open, but in fact, behind the scenes It is the continuous efforts of countless celestial masters and the ancestors of Great Xia over hundreds of years. We have also tested it in advance, and everything is normal."

"That's good." Xia Yuxiao breathed a sigh of relief, "By the way, Zhang Tianshi, that thing just now, I think, is our enemy spying on me?"

In fact, she already had an answer in her heart, but, as a person with an average level of cultivation, she still had to ask a professional to confirm it.

"Exactly, from the records of the church, there are records about the appearance of that vortex. According to the classic documents of the church, when the vortex appears, it is often accompanied by disasters or the so-called punishment of punishment." 'messenger'."

"But this time, the guy on the opposite side didn't bring disaster."

"Your Majesty, as the lord of a country, bears the name of the way of heaven, so the other party naturally dare not make casual moves." Regarding this, Zhang Tianshi said.

"You don't have to flatter me. I know very well whether I am a 'son of heaven' or a 'true dragon'." Xia Yuxiao frowned, "Let's be more realistic."

"...They may also have concerns for the time being. As for what the concerns are, I think it is probably because they are competing with us at this time, which is even more unfavorable to them. After all, the size of the Great Xia is placed there, and the Great Formation After opening, if they want to wrestle with us, they have to consider the price. Judging from our previous understanding of the church, the current church is not monolithic, and there are new sects appearing in the Holy Bishop's Church,' The emergence of heresy is likely to be a major reason." The Celestial Master gave such an answer to this.

The Holy Bishop's Church does have a huge sphere of influence, capable of preaching and sucking blood throughout the West and even the neighboring countries of Great Xia.But the secular power in this world is not a fool, it is impossible for you to pluck the wool from the beginning to the end.

Therefore, the current Holy Bishop's Church has already shown signs of splitting sects.It is a new denomination established by the former church saint who was persecuted by the church and took refuge in the nobles of a certain country. It believes that believers can interpret and redeem themselves. It believes that "the Lord does not care" and hopes that people will take the Holy Lord as the goal of faith but requires believers The "self-cultivation faction" who prioritizes maintaining a secular life and so on...

These are all heresies in the eyes of the Holy Bishop's Church. At present, several major sects are quite ready to practice on the spot.So, those things behind the vortex probably don't want to pay too much here in Daxia, most of their energy is now in the west.

"In a short period of time, I thought they would not trouble us first."

Although Zhang Tianshi said so, Xia Yuxiao still knew that she had something to do.

"Zhang Tianshi, even if this is the case, the time left for us is not very abundant. Although my original plan was much ahead of schedule, but now it seems that we are still not prepared enough. Let's do it. Next, we should give priority to building the Tianshi Mansion. Aerial warships, ballistas and other technologies also need to advance side by side, if the Tianshi Mansion is short of manpower, I can further screen talents from the various sects of Daxia, and at least a dozen more manpower can still be added."

Xia Yuxiao said.

"Your Majesty, to be honest, the Tianshi Mansion does not lack people, but time. Fortunately, the enemy in our hearts will not make a move for at least the next two or three years. During this period, the Tianshi Mansion will try its best." Do your best to complete His Majesty's instructions. As for the research on weapons... I think it is completely unnecessary for the Tianshi Mansion to complete it."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"The selection of people in the Tianshi Mansion is extremely strict, and if it is only for the research of weapons or other technologies, then ordinary people can be employed. I heard that the Taiwei wanted to set up a school in Daxia before. I feel that this Still useful."

"This task has a very long cycle, and no obvious effect will be seen in one or two years."

"Forgive me, Your Majesty, our enemy will at most send some minions within a few years. The so-called supreme guy will not come down easily. What's more, in their eyes, maybe ten years 20 A year is just a flick of a finger. If it is ten years, the effect is still very significant."

"Well... that's fine, then I'll arrange someone to do it."

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Chapter 64 Summoned

Since she was looking for someone to take charge of this matter, Xia Yuxiao naturally gave priority to finding the original scholar.

Although the previous incident was caused by looking for Shuweng, in all follow-up investigations, Shuweng did not have anything suspicious. This person can be used. If he can be used, Xia Yuxiao will naturally not let it go Such talent.

After returning from the ceremony and resting for a while, she got up and changed, and then went straight to Chunning Palace.

At this moment, Qin Ji was playing chess with Qin Siyue in the palace, and the two were fighting heartily on the chess game, while Xia Yuxiao, who heard the two of them making moves alternately outside, also stepped lightly at this moment, for fear of disturbing the two. Human game.

Playing chess, this is a skill that the children of a family in Daxia will learn from an early age, and it is also a way to pass the time. The intensity of the game between Qin Ji and Qin Siyue is absolutely extremely high.

Then, Xia Yuxiao heard the sound of things falling in the room quite quickly. It sounded like the confrontation between these two people was fierce, and each step only took a few seconds.

This speed is really fast. Xia Yuxiao has heard of a way of playing chess, which requires the two sides to play chess in a very short period of time. The test is actually a brain power, and see whose brain turns faster. Chess is more proficient.

She pushed open the door, waiting for a wonderful chess game to appear before her eyes.

But, things backfired.

"Hahahaha! I'm so stupid. There are three words here that are not blocked on both sides. There are four words here that you only blocked one side. If you lose, what else do you have to say!"

"Hiss...brother, you're too despicable, how can you trade me while I'm drinking water?"

"Siyue, you have to know that there are not so many rules in the game of chess in life. If you want to win in this game, you can only use all unconventional means honestly."

"However, this is playing chess." Qin Siyue said helplessly, "If you don't change pieces, you will die if you take five more moves at most."

"Siyue, people need to know how to be flexible." Qin Ji fully demonstrated his nature of letting go of himself in front of his sister, then turned around, and saw Xia Yuxiao who was speechless next to him.

"Uh......"

"Play chess." Not paying attention to Qin Ji's expression, Xia Yuxiao looked down at the chessboard, then raised her head to look at the two siblings, "Or backgammon?"

No wonder the next sub in a few seconds!She also wondered why these two brothers and sisters usually play Go so hard in private!

"Relax, there's nothing wrong with playing backgammon."

Qin Ji was confident about this, and then called his attendant to make tea for him.

"Did the Tianshi Mansion do something big today?" Qin Ji asked bluntly, holding Qin Siyue in his arms.

Obviously, Qin Siyue in her arms is very used to such intimacy, lying quietly in Qin Ji's arms, it feels like a human pillow.The relationship between the brothers and sisters is very peculiar. Sometimes you do what you do and I do what you do with me and rarely interfere with each other, but when they are intimate, it makes people even feel a little too much.

"It's nothing more than a magic circle that blesses Daxia, which can improve the cultivation efficiency of Daxia's profound practitioners."

Xia Yuxiao gave such a reason.

Qin Ji didn't fully believe it.

In the case of sufficient aura, the effect of practice will indeed become very good.But if it's really just to improve the cultivation efficiency of profound practitioners, there's no need to keep this matter secret.

Probably, it has something to do with things that I don't know now.After discussing with Qin Siyue for a period of time, Qin Ji has been able to confirm that behind the institution of Tianshifu, there must be some enemies that are enough for Daxia to concentrate all his strength to deal with.
