Cultivation Industry Era

Chapter 267 Outburst

In Guangling City, there was a huge crowd of people. A large number of nobles, family representatives, and sect representatives from the occupied area arrived here one after another, enthusiastically supporting Liu Hong as the new emperor of the Qixia Kingdom. Even some families, nobles, etc. from areas not occupied also sent representatives.

These nobles, families, etc., they always have this kind of thought: Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

And for the nobles of the major families, their first concern is their own interests, their second concern is their own inheritance, the third concern is their own honor, and the fourth concern is the situation of the country. In fact, for many families, they don't care about the country.

This is determined by the characteristics of the practice world. The inheritance of many families and sects can reach thousands of years, or even longer. These families have existed before the establishment of the country, and some families have passed on for more than ten thousand years.

Of course, due to various reasons such as wars and chaos, a long inheritance time does not mean that it is strong. But after all, the 'lifespan' of these families far exceeds the lifespan of the country.

Also because of these reasons, most of the families saw that the Qixia Kingdom ship was about to sink, so of course they rushed to find a new ship.

As for the cleanup of domestic nobles and families by the Kingdom of Jinyang... Everyone selectively forgot.

In fact, the Kingdom of Jinyang did not dare to blatantly clean up the nobles, families, etc. in the country, and only dared to use the Eastern Legion such as the Kingdom of Canglan to kill people with swords. And even so, there are still some families, especially large families.

Yes, most of the families that were cleaned up were small and medium families, and some large families were still there. For these deep-rooted and powerful families, the Kingdom of Jinyang cannot eradicate them.

Just like what Xu Jie said to Liu Xinyu before: officials in the country, generals in the army, etc., all come from various families, and families control the country by controlling talents. Although the country is at odds with the family, it has to borrow the talents of the family.

The relationship between the country and the family is like a 'symbiotic and parasitic' relationship. The country needs the support of the family, but the family will suck blood from the country.

If only the process could be balanced. But in fact, most of the time it is unbalanced. As the family continues to suck blood, the family will become stronger and stronger, and eventually the national power will be elevated. Then there is chaos.

In the chaos, the family is weakened, and a new overlord emerges, grows into a royal family, and can be stable for a period of time.

It's a dead end! An endless cycle.

But in this endless reincarnation, the aristocratic families have learned to be smart-whenever a country is about to fail, they start to curl up, shrinking all their strength and protecting themselves. Then see which country is strong, and take refuge in the past.

If a new country can quickly absorb the support of various families, the country will grow rapidly.

However, the families and nobles who have not been weakened by the war are fat parasites. It is dangerous for the country!

And now those families and sects that have huddled for a long time in Qixia Kingdom have started to move. They sent a representative to Guangling City, ostensibly to show their allegiance to Liu Hong, and jointly named Liu Hong the Great Emperor.

But in private, everyone knew very well that this Liu Hong was just a puppet, and everyone said that they were loyal to Liu Hong, but they were just expressing their stance to the Kingdom of Jinyang.

And in the palace, the puppet emperor Liu Hong was playing with his beauties, and he had nothing to do anyway, the only thing he could do was to play after a few disheveled women who were not even at the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Hey..." Sima Zhen just shook his head when he saw it. He could tell that Liu Hong wasn't hiding his strength and hiding his strength at all, but that he really couldn't support the wall.

"The country is about to perish, and there must be demons! I heard that the eldest prince of Qixia Kingdom is the same." A general from the early Yuanying period with his right arm broken at the elbow came. His left arm was replaced with a magical prosthesis.

Sima Zhen looked at the person who came, but this person was Bai Feilong (Chapter 202), who lost his right arm in the first artillery attack.

Two of the important generals who followed Sima Zhen had already died. The first one was Zhao Yue, who shot and killed the Great Emperor of Qixia Kingdom, and died in the first shelling. The second one is Diao Deshan, who died in a sneak attack in the north and was beaten to death by Dugu Junjie - at least that's how the body was sent back. At the same time, there were more than 50 infant corpses sent back, and many more have not been found.

According to the Qixia Kingdom soldiers who delivered the corpses, they did not speak until they were beaten to death. Sima Zhen and other high-level executives of Jinyang Kingdom expressed doubts, but in the end they released the soldiers who sent the corpses back and buried the Nascent Souls who died in battle.

Now, Sima Zhen promoted Bai Feilong to be his deputy.

Sima Zhen listened to Bai Feilong's words, nodded, and then sighed; "Although the two princes of the Qixia Kingdom are not successful, the princess should not be underestimated! She is a woman who has carried the Qixia Kingdom. half of the country."

But Bai Feilong smiled calmly: "That's just lingering. Now the Qixia Kingdom has less than 500,000 military forces left, and only the coastal land is left.

As long as we charge again, we can drive them all into the sea! "

Sima Zhen also had a relaxed smile on his face, but he quickly closed the smile, and said seriously: "That can't be taken lightly. What is the Dayang Group... doing recently? I heard that there are many families who have taken refuge with us. , those who have bonds in their hands are all being targeted?"

"It's just a small trick that doesn't make sense at all." Bai Feilong explained the cause and effect, and finally said, "Although Dayang Group's matter of only recognizing bonds but not people has brought some troubles, it is just a small matter." It's just troublesome. This makes me feel that the country of Qixia is already at the end of its rope."

Sima Zhen nodded slowly, "Maybe. But we can't take it lightly. The Dayang Group...is worth noting. Not to mention anything else, the artillery and explosives have caused us a lot of suffering. We lost 70 Nine out of ten thousand soldiers died from artillery and explosives."

Speaking of artillery and explosives, Bai Feilong looked at his right arm silently, his face darkened.

During the practice, there is a rebirth from the golden core to the Yuanying stage. If there is any problem with the body, it will be made up during this process. For example, the regeneration of severed limbs, etc. Some women will also take the opportunity to adjust their appearance.

However, the Nascent Soul Stage itself does not have the ability to regenerate severed limbs.

There will also be a process of rebirth when the Nascent Soul Stage breaks through the Transformation Stage; and it is said that the Transformation Stage has the ability to regenerate broken limbs.

However, Bai Feilong felt that if he could reach the late stage of the Nascent Soul Stage in his lifetime, he would be very incensed.

In other words, I will be disabled for the rest of my life. Therefore, Bai Feilong had some indescribable fears about artillery and explosives. Especially the crazy explosion during the siege, it is still suffocating to think about it.

too crazy! With a bang, 170,000 to 80,000 elites were gone.

It was because of this explosion that the Kingdom of Jinyang failed to take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Everyone is scared. That explosion not only killed 170,000 to 80,000 elite soldiers, but also destroyed the morale of the remaining 500,000 soldiers.

If it weren't for the God Transformation Period hovering high above the sky to cheer everyone up, I really dare not say what's going on now.

Fortunately, under the encouragement of the God Transformation Stage, coupled with the continuous publicity of the great victory of the "War of Destroying the Nation", morale gradually returned. But for now, it's still a bit sluggish.

The two were discussing, but Sima Zhen's personal soldiers came after him, "General, the scouts found that Qixia Kingdom sent troops. According to current observations, the opponent has about 300,000 legions and a large number of artillery.

That kind of direct-firing artillery is at least three hundred. There are probably as many as five thousand of that kind of projectile artillery. Most of the cannon barrels are thick. "

Direct-firing artillery is official artillery; projectile artillery is mortar. Because the country of Jinyang didn't know the official name, it was named like this. And the barrel is very thick, that is, the 300mm artillery.

To say that the 300mm artillery is very heavy, it cannot be dragged without a large locomotive. But there is practice here! There are spells! In five or six foundation building stages, the artillery can be carried forward at high speed.

Hearing that the country of Qixia was planning to fight back and that there were so many cannons, Sima Zhen immediately became serious. He quickly came to the main hall, found the relevant personnel and asked how the repair of the barrier of the moat was going.

The last big explosion destroyed the foundation, collapsed the city wall, and caused most of the defensive barrier of Guangling City to be damaged.

Guangling City is ten kilometers wide, and it is not an easy task to repair the formation foundation in a short period of time. Fortunately, Sima Zhen received good news. With the full support of various local aristocratic families, and the army formation personnel from the Kingdom of Jinyang, it has been initially repaired.

Especially the aristocratic families in Qixia Kingdom, they really did their best to show their sincerity. And it is precisely because of the "efforts" of these great families that the Kingdom of Jinyang has completely controlled the entire Guangling City in just six or seven days.

Then Sima Zhen arranged for all the soldiers to start defending the city.

The Supreme Emperor Zhao Kai appeared in front of Sima Zhen and asked about the strategic situation.

Sima Zhenhui reported: "Your Majesty, I think it is beneficial for us to defend the city. There are words in the art of war, and ten rules surround it. Now we have more than 500,000 elites, and with the support of various local families, we have pulled up another army. Almost 200,000 teams.

There are so many soldiers defending the city, and the defense of the city itself is impenetrable.

In comparison, the country of Qixia has only more than 300,000 people, and they want to besiege and attack the city, which is tantamount to nonsense. "

"There are so many of us, why don't we go to the battlefield for a decisive battle? We have to buy time!" Zhao Kai was a little annoyed, his daughter had an arm chopped off in front of him, and he was always suppressing his murderous aura.

What's more, the delay in Qixia Country was too long, and the loss was too great, which had seriously affected the strategy of Jinyang Country. The unexpected strength of Yanyun Kingdom in the north also made the royal family of Jinyang Kingdom feel the urgency.

Sima Zhen slowly and carefully considered his words: "Your Majesty, the explosion last time made everyone a little less confident about artillery, explosives, etc. This is my plan. First defend the city. Then use the barrier of the city. Artillery must have been severely weakened.

In the past, we have always been chasing the Qixia Kingdom to fight, resulting in a serious lack of defense in our movements. In this way, the power of the Qixia Kingdom's artillery was virtually magnified.

Now, we should be able to greatly weaken the power of the artillery with the help of an enchantment of an imperial city. As long as the defense lasts for three or two days, let the soldiers realize that the artillery is nothing more than that, and the morale will definitely be boosted.

At that time, the minister will lead the army out of the city for a decisive battle! "

Then, Sima Zhen added a little bit: "This time Qixia Kingdom deployed 300 direct-firing artillery and more than 5,000 curved-firing artillery."

After hearing this, Zhao Kai finally nodded. "Yes, the arrangement is very good. I will leave the battle to you. The Supreme Elder of the Jade Girl Sword Sect and I are responsible for dealing with Liu Dingshan."

"The Supreme Elder of the Jade Girl Sword Sect?" Sima Zhen was puzzled. But obviously Zhao Kai would not answer his doubts, turned around and left.

It was Zhao Ying who was recuperating at the rear, but Zhao Kai couldn't swallow his breath. This time, he invited Xie Yingxin, the Supreme Elder of the Jade Girl Sword Sect, to fight with him, preparing to destroy Liu Dingshan in one fell swoop.

Only Zhao Kai knows best that now belongs to the state of Jinyang's stage of transforming into gods, that is, himself, his daughter Zhao Ying, and the Supreme Elder Xie Yingxin of the Jade Girl Sword Sect.

The elder Qing Hongzi, the elder of the Nine Yang Sect who had just come here, has only recovered to the late Yuanying stage, and whether this person is reliable for the time being still needs to be carefully considered.

After all, this Qing Hongzi had just betrayed the country of Qixia. This is definitely a person who flies separately in the face of catastrophe. It may be okay to fight with the wind, but if there is a bad sign, this Qing Hongzi may smear the soles of his feet.

There is also a Dingshan Daoist, this is Xie Yingxin's Taoist companion, an elder of the Xiaoyao Sect in the Holy Land in the middle of the Fertile Land Continent, and also in the stage of transforming gods.

However, because of his status, Daoist Dingshan may take action if the country of Jinyang is in danger of subjugation; but he will not take action in foreign wars. The Holy Land has its code of conduct.

So this time Zhao Kai invited Xie Yingxin to kill Liu Dingshan together. Zhao Ying, on the other hand, was recovering from his injuries in the south, while defending Song Shang, a master in the transformation stage of the Danyang Kingdom, by the way. Although Zhao Ying was injured, it was no problem to temporarily block Song Shang.

When he came to the sky, Zhao Kai expressed his gratitude to Xie Yingxin. "It's troublesome. I'm afraid this battle will be a little dangerous. We are all in the middle stage of the transformation stage. If Liu Dingshan is desperate in the end, be careful."

Xie Yingxin smiled elegantly, and said softly: "I'm afraid he won't try his best. I brought a treasure this time."

After finishing speaking, he stood quietly on the white clouds, like Fairy Lingbo.

Zhao Kai glanced at Xie Yingxin greedily. This is a beautiful and elegant woman. The cultivation level of the god transformation stage has not left traces of time on her body; what is left is a kind of elegance and nobility full of the breath of time.

There was no need to deliberately manage it, Xie Yingxin just stood there casually, like a fairy Ling Chen. The breeze in the sky blew her light blue dress, and she seemed to want to ride the wind and go away among the white clouds.

But suddenly, Zhao Kai suddenly turned his head, and a powerful figure rushed towards the imperial capital, directly towards the imperial palace.

"Liu, Ding, Shan!" Zhao Kai's eyes turned red instantly, "Today you are doomed!"

After finishing speaking, he rushed down together with Xie Yingxin.

Liu Dingshan turned his head to look at Zhao Kai, and smiled contemptuously: "Oh, I have found a helper. But you are not afraid that I will chop off the hand of your helper again today?"

As soon as this was mentioned, Zhao Kai's murderous intent erupted immediately, and he killed him with a roar: "Go to hell!"

Zhao Kai turned into a sword light, and a white rainbow suddenly appeared in the sky, it was a huge sword light. The sword light hangs down from the sky, completely locking onto Liu Dingshan.

And Xie Yingxin also smiled lightly, and as she waved her slender hand, a white silk fluttered lightly, but the white silk fluttered into a nine-day waterfall, rolling towards Liu Dingshan. She wants to restrict Liu Dingshan's actions and prepare for the lore.

The roars and battles in the sky attracted countless attentions in Guangling City. To be honest, when I saw Liu Dingshan rushing directly, many people with ghosts in their hearts were taken aback. Now seeing Zhao Kai and Xie Yingxin join forces to fight against Zhao Kai, everyone was immediately excited and applauded Zhao Kai and Xie Yingxin.

Liu Dingshan heard it, and looked at the ugliness below, a flash of... Relax! Yes, relax. Liu Dingshan is not so ruthless if he wants to sacrifice a person from the city to kill two people who have transformed into gods, and it will also affect his practice and state of mind.

The previous decision was nothing but a solution. At that time, Liu Dingshan had already decided to sacrifice part of his own interests to achieve the Qixia Kingdom. In practice, the state of mind comes first; the impact of a large number of killings on the state of mind is immeasurable.

The reason why the God Transformation stage agreed not to do anything to the Nascent Soul stage and below was not just because they thought they were thinking about the world of practice, but more importantly, they were afraid that mass killing would affect their state of mind.

The frenzied killing thousands of years ago led to the insanity of countless god-turning stages. Latecomers had to be warned.

Liu Dingshan didn't tell anyone about the previous decision, he decided to bear it by himself. But seeing these people applauding now, Liu Dingshan smiled and felt relieved. Very good, even if I kill all of you with my own hands, I won't have any demons.

You guys are really... death wise! You are looking for death, but you can't blame me.

In the next moment, Liu Dingshan erupted suddenly, the aura of the late stage of Transforming God soared to the sky, and the surrounding air exploded with layers of ripples, and the ripples hit the building, and the building shattered. This sudden burst of momentum was like the shock wave of an explosion. It can be seen that the power of the god transformation stage is strong.

Liu Dingshan laughed aloud, he was full of pride, grabbed Zhao Kai, grabbed the white silk hanging from the sky, and dragged Xie Yingxin down.

"Not good!" Zhao Kai and Xie Ying were upset. But it was too late, Liu Dingshan laughed loudly, his passion was like a wave, and he threw the two of them to the ground.

Liu Dingshan's sudden eruption can be described as lightning fast. Zhao Kai and Xie Yingxin didn't expect this change at all, and they didn't react at all.

Only two bangs were heard, and the two of them were thrown to the ground. Moreover, during the descent of the two, they were also hit by Liu Dingshan's small seal, which made their actions even slower.

When Zhao Kai and Xie Yingxin got up and reacted, Liu Dingshan had already charged ten kilometers into the air.

In the next instant, a barrier emerged from the foot of Liu Dingshan.

The Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Sealing Formation, activate!
