Chapter 404: On Par with the Venerable! The Capital Alliance!
"With your current strength, it would be difficult for ordinary lords to defeat you."
Looking at Jiang Che's expression and recalling the powerful pressure he exerted when he summoned the Dharma Aspect before, the Scarlet-Blooded Demon Lord sighed sincerely.
Jiang Che smiled and said nothing.
Because that's the truth.
Although there is a huge gap between the Venerable Master in the late stage of Divine Appearance and the Grand Master of Dharma Appearance, the problem is that he is not an ordinary Grand Master of Dharma Appearance. In the early stage of Divine Appearance, he is even capable of defeating the Grand Master of Dharma Appearance.
Now, he has entered the realm of Dharma, and his physical body has entered the realm of supernatural power.
There is no shortcoming in the whole body.
The dual cultivation of law and body, coupled with his always proud methods.
There is no problem at all if you even say something to rival the Venerable.
The Scarlet Blood Demon Lord nodded slightly and immediately stopped asking any more questions.
Because he really didn't know what to say at the moment.
In fact, the Scarlet-Blooded Demon Lord was mentally prepared for Jiang Che's strength to surpass him. After all, Jiang Che was truly the number one genius in the Central Plains, and the four great visions of heaven and earth accompanied the existence of Hua Ying.
He even attacked the northern barbarian prince Zakumu and defeated him with a crushing force.
There is no doubt about its power.
He just didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.
Recalling that when they first met in the Scarlet Blood Secret Realm, Jiang Che was just a true elixir master with good qualifications. He relied on the Spirit Transformation Talisman to force him to compromise, but they got along with him after that.
Jiang Che also respected him. After all, his knowledge and strength far exceeded Jiang Che.
But now, Jiang Che has surpassed him in every aspect.
Although there is a slight lack of knowledge, this is only a small problem. With Jiang Che's talent, he will be able to surpass him sooner or later. However, in terms of strength, it is actually difficult for him to help Jiang Che anymore.
The opponent's strength far exceeds his current level.
Unless he returns to his peak state, he can defeat Jiang Che at this time.
But, how difficult is it to regain the peak and rebuild the physical body?
He had always been counting on Jiang Che to help him after he became a saint.
But given the current situation, it's almost impossible.
Of course, Jiang Che's rapid growth was what he expected, but it was difficult to accept this psychological gap for a while, so he casually said a few words and encouraged Jiang Che to cultivate as soon as possible.
Then he walked alone to a mountain peak in the distance and looked into the distance.
"Friend Scarlet Blood is right, the most important thing for you now is to recover well. The previous attempt was too dangerous, so you still have to put your safety first and integrate the Dharma.
I haven't heard of it yet, so I have to be cautious. "
Seeing the Scarlet Blood Demon Lord leaving, Zhao Xianzhi's tone became much more affectionate.
It is true that her relationship with Jiang Che cannot be hidden from the Scarlet-Blooded Demon Lord who has been following Jiang Che, but after all, she is still an outsider, and she is also someone who wants to show face, so it is impossible to show it.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Patting Zhao Xianzhi's delicate palm, Jiang Che nodded.
"boom!"
Above the calm waters of the East China Sea, a roar suddenly erupted, hundreds of feet of waves arose in the water, and the infinite sword energy turned into a long river, pouring towards Jiang Che.
Carrying the power of heaven and earth, its sharp edge covers the sky.
Faced with such an offensive, Jiang Che did not dare to be careless in the slightest. With his thoughts in mind, behind him, a true dragon's dharma image quickly condensed. The dragon's tail flicked, and its vitality surged.
Exploded on the long river of sword energy.
The explosive shock wave instantly dispersed in all directions.
Wait until the world is silent.
There are only two figures standing between heaven and earth.
Surprisingly, it was Jiang Che and Zhao Xianzhi.
And the reason why they fought against each other was actually just to compete with each other. Counting from the day of the breakthrough, more than half a month had passed.
Jiang Che is a great master in the realm of physical magical powers. Although he does not have the magical power of rebirth after severed limbs, his own recovery power is not weak, and he has already recovered as before.
However, he did not rush back to the capital, but chose to stay on the sea to compete with Zhao Xianzhi in order to measure his own strength and gain a deep understanding of himself.
Several sparring sessions.
Zhao Xianzhi gradually improved his strength to deal with it.
Jiang Che also had a rough idea of where his strength stood. Generally speaking, judging by Zhao Xianzhi, it would be no problem for him to fight with all his strength against ordinary venerables.
But if a sword master like Zhao Xianzhi attacks with all his strength, he will still be inferior.
After all, the offensive power of the sword cultivator is obvious to all.
But when Zhao Xianzhi was at his peak, he was unable to defeat the Venerable's existence.
His current strength can definitely be called a strong one in the realm of venerables.
If his father-in-law didn't use the Qi family's holy weapons, it would be difficult for him to defeat Zhao Xianzhi.
This shows how tyrannical he is.
Unless he continues to use the two-phase fusion method of 'Dharma, Heaven, Elephant and Earth', he can gain an advantage. But at present, that method can only be used as a pressure point.
Once the fusion lasted for more than ten breaths, he would be unable to withstand the backlash of that power.
Unless Jiang Che's strength continues to grow, time can be extended.
However, as his strength grows, so will his Dharma form and blood energy transformation. How long he can hold on in the future remains to be considered.
"Sometimes it's hard to believe that you are only in your twenties now." Zhao Xianzhi also sighed sincerely.
She possesses an extremely yin body that is comparable to the holy body. She practiced hard for hundreds of years and gave up her love and desire before she entered the realm of the venerable. But what about Jiang Che? So far, I am only in my twenties.
She herself felt that this speed of cultivation was too abnormal. If it were not for the reincarnation of a powerful person, it would be difficult to explain this situation.
The most important thing is that Jiang Che has not only entered the Dharma Realm, but also has strength comparable to that of the Venerable. If she does not use all her strength, she will not be able to gain the upper hand against Jiang Che.
Jiang Che smiled and didn't want to talk too much about this topic. He stepped forward and hugged Zhao Xianzhi's slim waist very familiarly, and took a deep breath:
"The discussion is over, let's start the next one."
Feeling the strong palm on his waist, Zhao Xianzhi pursed his lips, without retorting or pushing away.
If she felt a little ashamed when facing Jiang Che before, now, after more than half a month of contact, she has basically accepted Jiang Che from the inside out.
Of course, she is not keen on things between men and women.
The reason why it is like this now is just because Jiang Che brought her too much benefit when he practiced with her.
She had taken the risk to break through before, and had to release most of her extremely yin energy, but she also lost nearly half of her foundation because of it, which was extremely detrimental to her future attempts to reach the realm of the Martial Saint.
She thought it would take a lot of time to recover, but one training session with Jiang Che was worth her half-month of hard training.
She admitted that she couldn't help taking this shortcut.
In addition, when Jiang Che practices with her, it can also make the yin and yang energy in her body more balanced. With so many gains, she feels that it would be impossible for anyone else to hold back.
"Which move are you going to use today?"
"Turning the river and sea!"
Just when Jiang Che was nostalgic for the land of gentleness, Dongfang Mingyue, the Purple Dragon Dharma King who returned from the East China Sea, also returned to the Qingtian Sect main altar, went into retreat, and began to attack the realm of the Martial Saint.
at the same time.
In the capital, there is also an undercurrent surging at this moment.
In the streets and alleys, everyone was talking about the peace talks between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Barbarians. Under the arrangements of the Qingtian Sect's chessmen, and the emperor's intention to promote it.
It only took a short time for negotiations and peace talks to officially begin.
As for the patron king Ji Chengdao, he remained silent on the peace negotiation. He neither agreed nor opposed it. His acquiescence made the matter almost extremely harmonious.
Emperor Yuankang Ji Wenhao was also very high-spirited and felt that as long as the peace talks were successful, he would be able to start rectifying the Central Plains. During this process, several princes, especially the third prince Ji Changsheng, worked hard to promote this matter.
On the one hand, it was because of the persuasion of Princess Xu Qiuyue, and on the other hand, it was because he wanted to regain the face he had lost from Jiang Che.
The banquet was neither a big deal nor a small matter, but everyone in the government and the public did not think highly of him. They felt that his personality was too impulsive and his behavior was too poor.
For this reason, some forces that originally intended to support him chose to sway.
This made him both angry and helpless.
You can only try your best to deepen your influence.
Let the ruling and opposition parties understand that he still has hope of competing for the throne.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, the peace talks are basically at an end, and there will definitely be no more mistakes. As long as this can be accomplished, the previous losses can be made up for."
In Fenghe Palace, Ji Changsheng was in high spirits.
"Your Majesty is pushing hard for this matter. It is very good for you to seize the opportunity, but you must not relax because of this. During this period, the Queen Mother ordered people to investigate some of Jiang Che's past.
It was found that this person had an extremely bad temper, and he could be said to be seeking revenge. He would destroy his family and family in Yuezhou at every turn. He had a grudge before, and he would definitely not let it go. "
Queen Xue Baichi is still charming, but her face can't hide the solemn expression.
Ji Changsheng sneered when he heard this:
"Destroy a whole family. Jiang Che doesn't have the guts to destroy a whole family in this palace. As for this man's threat, the mother does not need to say more. The child actually understands it, but the child is the prince after all.
No matter how arrogant he is, is it possible that he still dares to fight me to the death? "
Queen Xue narrowed her eyes:
"By the way, speaking of this person, why haven't you heard anything about him recently?"
"My mother doesn't know that Jiang Che has left the capital at this time. It is said that he is going to the south to pick up his family. It will take some time to come back."
"That's fine. Without his hindrance, the queen mother can always feel more at ease."
Although on the surface Xue Baichi looked noble and graceful towards Jiang Che, in reality, she was still quite afraid. After all, behind Jiang Che was the patron king who could influence the situation of the court.
"Mother, please rest first, and my son should leave first. Qiuyue has already contacted me and will let me meet with the Northern Barbarian envoy. Under the current general trend of peace talks.
If the child can maintain a good relationship with the Northern Man prince, he will definitely make his father happy. "
Ji Changsheng bowed and prepared to leave.
"That's fine."
Xue Baichi nodded without stopping.
Capital, envoy posthouse.
Zakumu, Limuzhen, and priest Sufeng gathered together and set up a ban around the area to prevent outsiders from prying.
"There are basically no problems with the peace talks. As long as we take a step back, the matter can be accomplished." Su Feng was very happy, although Zakumu lost to Jiang Che this time.
As a result, the set goals were not achieved.
But this time, his efforts were not in vain. After several efforts, he almost reached a consensus with the Central Plains court. As long as the Central Plains court agreed to withdraw its troops, they could take advantage of the situation and move south in a large scale.
With the help of Qingtian Sect, this matter is easier than imagined.
Such a great achievement would be enough to win the favor of the Khan of Heaven and even the Barbarian Temple, and he might have a chance to become a martial saint in the future.
As for the peace agreement.
It is not impossible to avoid paying some price.
As long as the Northern Barbarians want, they can tear it up at any time.
Limuzhen nodded slightly:
"Can you give the things from the Qingtian Sect?"
"Of course, if our Saint Clan army succeeds in going south, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Qingtian Sect. How dare they go against our will?"
Su Feng curled his lips.
For the peace talks, they can not only get a gift from the court, but the Qingtian Sect must also show sincerity, and most of these things can fall into their hands.
"The only pity is that I lost." Among the three, only Zagumu's face was not very good. Thinking back to the battle of Yanglongtan, it was the greatest shame of his life.
Not only did he lose, but he lost so miserably.
It can be expected that when he returns to the grassland, he will inevitably be ridiculed by those brothers.
"This defeat is not entirely a bad thing. You have always been too confident. It is actually a good thing to suffer some setbacks. The high priest once said that without setbacks, it is difficult to achieve great things.
For the time being, let Jiang Che show off his power for a while, and wait for my Saint Clan's cavalry to go south, and then let him know that personal bravery cannot affect the true world situation.
When Jiang Che is ordered to use troops, you may have a chance to see him as a prisoner."
Su Feng comforted.
But Zagumu's face was still not good:
"If we lose, we lose. If we rely on the power of the Saint Clan to defeat him, what's the point? One day, I will personally avenge my shame and defeat Jiang Che fairly."
"As long as you have this intention."
Limu Zhen said:
"Fighting is actually a small matter. You should understand that peace talks are the real purpose of the Saint Clan. Even if we lose, it will not affect the overall situation. What we have to do now is to sign a contract.
And return to the grassland safely."
Zhagumu frowned slightly:
"The Central Plains court supports peace talks, and even the Central Plains rebels of the Qingtian Sect secretly support us. Is there any danger?"
"Things in the world are unpredictable. After all, we must be more prepared. After all, this matter is not trivial. If something happens to us, the peace talks may be deadlocked."
Su Feng said in a deep voice.
Once something happens to them, the grassland royal court will certainly mobilize troops to the south. This is not because they are so important, but they must do so if they still negotiate peace regardless of their lives.
With the minds of the Central Plains people, they will definitely be able to find out the trick.
Therefore, their safety is very important.
"You can decide these things." Zagumu stood up and left. He was not interested in these things, still thinking about the shame that the battle brought him.
His self-confidence was greatly hit by his defeat to Jiang Che.
