Chapter 454 Soul Ferry
Among the many high-level forces that came from all over the Southern Territory this time, in addition to the Dark Night Dynasty Crown Prince Dark Night Wushuang, Yunmeng Dynasty's eldest princess Mengdie, and the second princess Mengya.
In addition to Shangguan Feiyu, the crown prince of the Qianlong Dynasty, and the four representatives of the top forces from the Mozong and the Zongmen Son of the Divine Sword.
There are also Chu Feng, the master of Qingyang Sect, Wenren Yingge, master of Misty Palace, Xia Wuji, master of Tiangang Sect, Jin Yang, master of Jinyang Gang, and Chen Jingyuan, master of Fire God Sect.
Li Mingdao, the master of the Songlin Academy, Ouyang Zhenhai, the master of the Qidingmen, Xu Zhizhou, the master of the Xuandan Hall, and Li Jue, the master of the Yinsha Sect, and more than ten representatives of the first-class forces.
This scene can be said to be a gathering of heroes and masters like clouds. Nearly half of the power of the entire southern region will converge here, and it is also the real target of the empire's series of plans.
…
"Han Xin, what's the matter with the boaters they said?"
In the crowd that stretched for dozens of miles and lived in the rear, one was wearing a luxurious black brocade robe with a masculine and handsome appearance.
With a white jade belt on his waist, and holding a simple long sword, the young man who looks like a turbid Shijia son is looking at a young man in commoner who is wearing a long sword and his hair covers his eyes.
This is the Qin Emperor Yingji.
And this young man is one of the two most important weapons in the empire, second only to the commander Zhang Han among the shadow guards.
The strength is much stronger than that of the top 100 leaders of shadow guards, and the second master of shadow guards is also Han Xin, who is also known as the Soldier Immortal by later generations.
It's just that the current Han Xin has not yet officially joined the army, and is still the emperor's personal guard and the Qin emperor's eagle.
As Han Xin himself said: "This is a job with money."
"Master, according to the information gathered by the shadow guards and the net, the Nether Lake was formed by the gathering of countless dead souls in a corner of the war that year."
"After all, it was hundreds of years ago, when martial arts practice was more prosperous. Among these dead souls, the lowest level of cultivation was in the innate realm."
"There are not a few dead souls in the Yuandan realm (great master), and the ghosts of the terrestrial immortals in the Zifu realm (the supreme master) also appear and disappear from time to time."
"Fortunately, there is an ancient formation at the bottom of the lake, which suppresses all the dead souls, so that thousands of dead souls in the lake cannot leave the Nether Lake."
"Otherwise, if these dead souls leave this place, it will be a catastrophe for the entire southern region. I am afraid that only the three dynasties and two sects can deal with it."
"And all the dead souls among them are also divided into good and evil. The evil souls lurking underwater, waiting for the sunset or the dawn to come out of the lake to make trouble and wreak havoc in it."
"In the past hundreds of years, after going deep into the Luoyun Mountains, there have been more than 10,000 Zongmen family disciples and people of the kingdom who died by the lake, as well as countless explorers, and there are countless monsters. The countless bones and bones of his life are proof."
"And the good soul is hidden in the empty space above the lake. It will come out of the space at noon, when the fog is filled, and the light is difficult to enter, it is like a dark world."
"These good souls will also use the power of their souls to build a boat of souls, ferry the souls to the other side, and prevent the souls from being harmed by evil souls."
Han Xin said to Ying Ji, Han Xin was also greatly surprised by the mystery of the Nether Lake, but he did not expect such a miraculous existence in the world.
And around Han Xin and Ying Ji, there were also dozens of swordsmen who were going to wear black suits. It seemed that there was only the aura of the innate realm hidden under the surface of the Qi-training realm.
These are all members of the Shadow Guard and the Net, with 20 people on each side, a total of 40 elite congenital warriors.
Three of them are particularly eye-catching. One of them is a free and easy middle-aged man with two long swords on his back. Under the ordinary Cambridge, I don't know what kind of shocking edge is hidden.
His body is full of bohemian breath, his eyes are full of melancholy, and the unshaven image on his face does not detract from his image, but adds a sense of vicissitudes of life, a typical mature and charming uncle.
The other person is wearing the standard soldier's armor of the Qin army, wearing the standard helmet of the Qin army, wearing a black tiger mask, and also holding a sword, which can arouse people's curiosity.
The other person was a big man with a halberd. The six-foot-long halberd could not help but make people tremble. If it hits the body, it could be seriously injured, not to mention hitting the body directly.
These three people are Luo Wang's two heaven-ranked killers, except Jingzhao, Black and White Xuanjian and Covering Sun.
And it goes without saying that the big man with the halberd came from Nangong Changwan, who had the blood of the Lava Demons flowing in his body.
Xuanjian, Zieri, Han Xin, Nangong Changwan, and forty other innate warriors who originated from the nets and shadow guards were the guards on the bright side when Ying Ji entered the secret realm of the Black Dragon.
And after listening to Han Xin's words, Ying Ji couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. The power of the soul, the boatman, reached the other shore...
All kinds of things make Ying Ji feel familiar, is this a fantasy version of soul ferrying?
A strange idea appeared in Ying Ji's mind, which made Ying Ji feel a little weird.
At this time, Ying Ji couldn't help but recall what Bai Qi said to himself in the valley barracks two days ago.
"Your Majesty, this time more than a thousand forces from the southern region have come together, and the plan has already begun, but to be fully completed, it still needs some promotion."
"After all, this is nearly one-half of the strength of the Southern Region. Although the imperial army is in full swing and its morale is like a rainbow, there are still a few masters at the level of supreme grandmasters."
"Under a strong attack, the military formation can be used again. Although it is possible to win, it is inevitable that there will be too many casualties, which is not conducive to the follow-up war."
"so……"
Speaking of which, Bai Qi, who is iron-blooded and decisive in the future, doesn't know how to speak.
Seeing this, Ying Ji couldn't help but laugh.
"Bai Qi, Bai Qi, do you still need to worry about these things?"
"Although you and I are monarchs and ministers, but you and Xiangguo watched me grow up, and even taught me swordsmanship. For four years, I taught the teacher's grace, and I was also a teacher and a friend, and I rose from the bottom to the present. , can be said to be the person I trust the most, why should I take this into account?"
Ying Ji said, this is not Ying Ji joking, except for his mother and aunt.
The loyalty is as high as 100%. Bai Qi, who is a general and holds the military power of the empire, is definitely the most trusted person by Ying Ji, and the pillar of the empire that he can absolutely rely on.
Hearing Ying Ji's words, Bai Qi was moved and smiled embarrassedly. It was because his status was different, so he had to consider more things and had to take it into account.
Ying Ji also went directly to the topic and said.
"So you want me to enter the black dragon secret realm that is about to open, and make the water that is already turbid a little more."
"It is best to keep secretly creating conflicts and incidents, attracting many forces in the southern region to attack each other, weaken their strength, and prepare for the general work of the imperial army in the future."
Hearing Ying Ji's words, Bai Qi nodded and admitted, explaining: "Your Majesty, this is a very important matter. Although the Black Dragon Secret Realm has countless treasures, there are many opportunities."
"But at the same time, things are changing one after another. I am afraid that the Hundred Families and the people in the imperial institutions who are sent disguised to enter the secret realm will not be able to deal with some unexpected events, nor will they be able to suppress them."
"And the minister knows that although His Majesty's strength is not top-notch, he has a great opportunity and great luck, and there are trump cards that the ministers and others do not know about. Even if he is alone, he can be safe."
"Therefore, I dare to invite Your Majesty to take the risk and enter the secret realm of the Black Dragon!"
Speaking of this, Bai Qi was also a little uneasy. As a minister, he persuaded the emperor to let the monarch of a country risk his own life. As a minister, he is probably the first time in the ages.
