Chapter 500 The Troubled Times Begin! A Game of Chess at the Corner of the Sea!

Holy Sea City.

Cape Cliff.

The sea of ​​clouds is billowing, the fairy spirit is lingering, and the cranes are flying in the sky, making the place look like a fairyland. It seems to be integrated with the outside world, but in fact it is completely different.

If there are people with great supernatural powers here, they will definitely be shocked to find that this place actually cuts off the world.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, there is a middle-aged figure walking slowly. He is wearing a brocade robe with a python pattern, a golden crown on his head, and his long black hair is meticulously combed. He walks like a dragon walking like a tiger.

There was a power like a mountain and an abyss lingering all over his body.

A pair of divine eyes is extremely deep, as if there is an endless abyss in the eyes, and if you look closely, you can see that every step of this person seems to be taking, but in fact it is like moving the void.

It actually has the power to shrink the ground into an inch.

The surrounding sea of ​​clouds unconsciously parted a path, and the middle-aged prince came from the sky, like a god coming to the world. The road to the sea of ​​clouds extended very far until it stopped at a certain cliff.

And on the cliff, there was a figure in white lying on his side, with a seemingly ordinary straw mat spread under him, but his temperament seemed to be from this world, and with his white hair and white beard, he was a real figure. Like the old fairy in the market legend.

"Ji Chengdao, junior, pays homage to Jiang Sheng."

The middle-aged man in the python robe walked a hundred steps away from the figure in white, bowed slightly, cupped his fists and saluted.

"Uh-huh."

The white-haired old man seemed to be awakened. He stretched his back and slowly sat up. He glanced at Ji Chengdao from the corner of his eye and said casually: "Jiang Sheng has been sitting in Tianyuan for a long time. You can just call me sir."

"Mr. Jiang."

Ji Chengdao, who was extremely domineering to the outside world, resisted the Northern Barbarians externally, and suppressed the emperor internally, faced the seemingly ordinary old man, but he showed the courtesy of a junior and called him sir again without being arrogant.

"Sit down."

The old man surnamed Jiang waved, but there was no change. A somewhat broken wooden table appeared in front of him, as well as two steaming cups of tea on the table.

"Thank you sir."

Ji Chengdao stepped forward, invisible and invisible, crossing a hundred steps, and knelt down in front of the old man.

"Eight hundred years ago, Taizu and I discussed the world here and determined the fate of the country for eight hundred years of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now that you are here, you have cut off the fate of the country for two hundred years of the Great Zhou Dynasty. From beginning to end, it is quite interesting. "

Ji Chengdao drank the tea in his hand without changing his expression and said calmly:

"The demon clan is powerful and their troops are approaching the abyss. Sooner or later, they will break through the defense. Back then, sir, I sacrificed my body to block the demon clan for six hundred years, but six hundred years have passed.

Tianyuan's power is gradually dissipating. If we don't find a way to break the situation, even if the Great Zhou Dynasty still has two hundred years of national destiny, it will be of no use. It is better to make the best use of everything. Use the power of national destiny to raise a true dragon in this world. "

"If Taizu hears this, you, a junior, will be reprimanded and scolded for being ignorant of the world." The old man surnamed Jiang pointed at Ji Chengdao and laughed and scolded.

Ji Chengdao looked solemn:

"If I could be given another hundred years, I would surpass Taizu. Unfortunately, looking at the phenomena of heaven and earth, I no longer have a hundred years. The people favored by heaven and earth are not my human family. The Demon Realm also has the power to unify the realm.

In addition, there is something that you, Mr. Jiang, are also afraid of. Under so much pressure, I alone cannot stop it. I don’t have much time anymore. "

The old man surnamed Jiang took a sip of tea, his eyes filled with calmness:

"So, what are you going to do?"

"Start the troubled times in advance, and strive to use the signs of troubled times that have been accumulated for hundreds of years to cultivate the true dragon before the abyss of heaven is broken. We do not seek to end the evil troubles, but only hope that the world will be peaceful for another six hundred years."

"You, a real dragon, are already the strongest person I have seen in the past hundred years." The old man surnamed Jiang put down his tea cup. The two cups were filled with water out of thin air.

Then the heat slowly rose.

"I have my things to do."

Ji Chengdao said this.

"Are you seeking death?"

The old man surnamed Jiang's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was looking at Ji Chengdao for the first time.

"I am not seeking death, I am just doing it as a last resort. The restriction on Tianyuan has been broken. Looking at the world, I am the only one who can mend Tianyuan and is willing to mend Tianyuan." Ji Chengdao's tone was calm, but there was a sense of pride hidden in his words.

"If you, the king of backers, fall, Dazhou will have no backers."

The old man named Jiang suddenly said seriously.

Looking at the world, the five major immortal sects, the six major aristocratic families, and the two temples in the north and south all have the power of turmoil. The reason why the imperial court can stabilize the situation is not only its own strength.

Also because Ji Chengdao is in the center.

No one knows how far Ji Chengdao's strength has reached, but no matter who it is, they have never underestimated Ji Chengdao's strength. It is precisely because of this that Ji Chengdao's title will be recognized by people all over the world.

The word "backer" refers to the white jade pillars holding up the sky and the purple gold beams supporting the sea!

He originally thought that Ji Chengdao had other plans for abandoning the centenary national destiny on Tuesday, but now it seems that Ji Chengdao really has no interest in the rise and fall of this dynasty.

As a descendant of the Ji family, he is willing to sacrifice himself and his country.

"The turbulent dynasty does not have the power to sweep away the troubled times. Even if I am here, won't the world still be unable to have peace? In this case, what difference does it make if I am here or not?"

Ji Chengdao shook his head.

"Then you came to me to ask me to help the court after you leave?"

"I just stopped by here to catch up with my senior and reminisce about old times. Back then, I got a lot of guidance from my senior. Without my senior, Ji Chengdao would not be where he is today."

The old man surnamed Jiang looked at Ji Chengdao carefully and seriously, as if he wanted to see something for a long time before he said:

"The real dragon you raised is the kid in the south?"

"It hasn't turned into a dragon yet, so it can be considered a latent dragon."

"What's his origin?"

"I don't know."

"I don't know?"

Ji Chengdao nodded slightly:

"It is precisely because I don't know that I have a future. I once borrowed the immortal treasure Yantian Mirror from the Supreme Taoist Palace, and tried to spy on the secrets of heaven at the cost of the scattered national fortune and a hundred years of life.

It's a pity that I failed, but I have some perception of the future. But since the kid was born, he has never acted according to the predictions I have made. Do things in the future.

But he has encountered opportunities many times, and his cultivation has been rising steadily. When I met him, I looked at him with my heavenly eyes and could not see any abnormality. Only then did I determine that this person was not a reincarnated person.

He is not a reincarnated body, but he won the first place in the martial arts realm and attracted the luck of heaven and earth. I think that perhaps this boy is the real dragon raised by the national destiny for two hundred years."

The old man surnamed Jiang smiled indifferently:

"I thought that the boy surnamed Lu was the one you valued. "

"I gave him an opportunity, but the secrets of heaven are unpredictable. The more time passes, the more chaotic it will be. His achievement is at most to become a saint, and he cannot bear the burden of the future. "Ji Chengdao replied.

If Lu Jieyun was here, he would definitely be shocked, because his biggest secret was directly revealed by Ji Chengdao at this moment.

On the cliff of the cape, the breeze was blowing gently, and the place was silent for a moment. The old man surnamed Jiang looked at Ji Chengdao seriously, and then he didn't ask any more questions. He waved his hand and turned it into a chessboard.

"Come, let's play a game."

Ji Chengdao nodded, and placed a piece with a normal look:

"Sir, please."

"Shenghai City!"

Zhao Xianzhi uttered three words with a solemn expression.

Qi Wanjun on the side also nodded and said:

"Yes, King Ji issued three edicts in a row, ordering you to go to Shenghai City, but when the news came, it was stopped by me and Sister Zhao, saying that you are now in seclusion and it is difficult to get out.

Later, King Ji used the magic weapon of Zhuquesi to say that he would wait for you in Shenghai City after you leave."

Hearing this, Jiang Che immediately fell into deep thought.

Because he really didn't understand why Ji Chengdao asked him to go to Shenghai City. It seemed to be just a holy place in the martial arts world. Why would he, a Wu'an Duke, go there now?

However, although Jiang Che was extremely surprised, he also knew that he had to go this time.

Because the person who summoned him was Ji Chengdao.

He was a strong man who had helped him and cared for him. Jiang Che had already figured out the reason why Yao Yue helped him outside the capital. It was 100% related to Ji Chengdao.

With such a favor, how could he rebel?

Moreover, Ji Chengdao's strength was still unfathomable. Even though he was now ranked Wu'an Duke and the de facto King of Yuezhou, he actually had no ability to resist Ji Chengdao.

If Emperor Ji Wenhao summoned him to the capital, he would definitely refuse unless there was a sacrifice. Wouldn't it be better to operate in Yuezhou and prepare for a breakthrough than to be transferred?

In addition, there was another reason.

That is, the Heavenly Soul Holy Lotus is in Ji Chengdao's hands, and the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit also needs Ji Chengdao's help. If he doesn't go, he will definitely not be able to get the last two sacrifices.

In addition, Jiang Che doesn't think that Ji Chengdao wants to deal with him.

After all, with Ji Chengdao's strength and prestige, if he wants to take him, he only needs to go to Yuezhou in person, and everything will be settled. It is more likely that the other party will prepare sacrifices for him.

"I know."

Jiang Che nodded, and after thinking it through, he put the matter aside for the time being. Ji Chengdao did not give him a specific time, so he naturally needed to rest well.

After all, no matter what, Yuezhou is also his territory, and he must have some sense of existence.

After listening to a series of affairs at all levels, Jiang Che quickly convened a banquet and set up a big one in Yangping Pass. The whole Yangping Pass also quickly became very lively because of his "coming out of the pass".

In addition, Jiang Che also helped Zhao Xianzhi and others to practice, and once again experienced the melee between master, apprentice and sister. As for Qingqing, he could not move at present.

Although he had explored her body and even tapped her Yongquan acupoints a few times, there were restrictions on her body after all, and he did not have the ability to break the restrictions left by the Martial Saint.

Moreover, the innate Dao Yun was also closely related to Qingqing. The higher her cultivation, the better the effect of the Dao Yun power would be.

Not to mention the few days Jiang Che spent in Yangping Pass, after he completely relaxed his body and mind, he immediately started the migration plan and moved the core power of Yuezhou to Yuezhou City.

It was in the middle of a state, and it was also the core.

Yangping Pass was just an important border town after all. It could be used to resist the enemy and temporarily serve as the core of a state, but it would be inappropriate to always use it as the core of Yuezhou.

For this reason

Jiang Che divided his army into 100,000 troops, and left 30,000 elite soldiers and a grandmaster in each of the three major border towns, such as Yangping Pass, Tiannan Pass, and Zhouping Pass, which had the lowest presence.

After doing these things, Jiang Che quickly moved to Yuezhou City with the real core force. Although this place had undergone a cleansing, it was not as prosperous as it used to be in martial arts.

But it was full of vitality.

After arriving in Yuezhou City, Jiang Che formally convened a reward meeting, summoning most of the core figures of Yuezhou to Yuezhou City, preparing for a real reward.

Because last time, although there were pensions and rewards, in fact, most of the strong men were recovering from injuries, and Yuezhou had not yet been pacified. At that time, it was somewhat inappropriate to reward them based on merit.

And now is the real time.

On the day of the reward, almost half of the strong men in Yuezhou gathered in Yuezhou City. Except for a few people, no one dared to disobey Jiang Che's intention.

He also took the opportunity to distribute the power under his hands after the reward.

The one who gained the most was naturally the Beiling Qi family.

Qi Tianzhong and Qi Tianhe were both his trusted arms. Zhao Xianzhi, Zhou Xuan and others also held great power. The difference was that Zhou Xuan now also served as the deputy envoy of the Black Ya Suzaku Division.

Jiang Che also handed over the Suzaku Division to the other party for custody.

In addition, there were some surrendered generals and soldiers, such as Li Chengguo's three adopted sons, Li Kuang, Li Xian and others. Their duty was naturally to take charge of the Zhennan Army together with the two elders of the Qi family.

There is also Pei Hongyi from Xuehaimen, who has now become the deputy leader of Tianya League, a force that Jiang Che once founded, and has become an intelligence force under him, different from Heiya.

An intelligence force that is only loyal to himself.

And with the assistance of the children of the Beiling Qi family, Linyuan Wei family, Tiannan Gao family, Yingchuan Guo family and many other Jianghu forces who had joined Jiang Che at the beginning.

Even though the Zhennan Army has expanded several times, not only has there been no turmoil, but a new balance of power has been formed.

Some of the old men who followed Jiang Che at the beginning, such as Qi Huan, have now become a general he trusts. Although they are only Xuandan cultivation, their status is comparable to that of the Grand Master of Divine Appearance.

They are his confidants among his confidants.

The only shortcoming is cultivation.

Originally, Jiang Che wanted to transfer Qi Sanjia to his side and solemnly return the favor of the other party for promotion. Unfortunately, he later found out that it was because of the previous Yuezhou turmoil.

Qi Sanjia was seriously injured and it was difficult for him to take office. He is now recuperating at Beiling Qi family.

For this reason, even though Jiang Che was unaware of it at the beginning, Zhao Xianzhi and Qi Wanjun still discussed and sent many precious cultivation resources and elixirs to Qi Sanjia.

There are also Geng Dabiao and others, who are now practicing in Wu'an Mansion, because even if they work harder, their upper limit has been set, and it is almost impossible for them to enter the Xuandan realm.

For this reason, Jiang Che naturally let them have many children and support them for the rest of their lives, so as to fulfill his former loyalty.
