Seeing that Caicai, Granny Cai, and Wu Beichen were all in the house, a powerful wave of relief swept through Li Mu.
Those days, they had collected some news on their way since they took off from the vast pasture for the west. Only then did they know the land had been in such havoc. What was more shocking to them was that the seemingly untouchable three great empires, especially Western Qin and Northern Song, turned out to be so vulnerable. They could not believe in less than six months the three empires were reduced to such a mess.
As to the details, the herdsmen did not know much, either, for the messages were blocked out on the pasture.
Li Mu was told that the Western Qin Empire had lost almost the entire border area in the war, which had been occupied by a Great Moon Empire that came out from nowhere. Except for one county, the rest of the border area was under the control of the Great Moon Empire at the time. Even Li Yuanba, the Dominee
At that, Li Mu finally put on a severe countenance and repeated, "The same place?" Yu Hualong did not keep Li Mu in suspense but came straight to the point. "It's Earth." Li Mu fell in silence at once. He was weighing how much truth Yu Hualong's remark contained. Guo Yuqing had told Li Mu that the Great Moon Empire was founded by the Extra-terrestrial Demons. It had deluged the Divine Land in endless foul wind and rain of blood. At last, unable to stand its reign of horror, the creatures on the land formed an ally and overthrew the evil empire through painstaking fights and struggles before they built up the current power structure. From the perspective of the creatures on the Divine Land, Earth residents were extra-terrestrial creatures, so they did fit into the definition of Extra-terrestrial Demons. "That's true." "But, who are you kidding?" "You're telling me that 1,00
In the ancient times of China, some people on Earth already traveled beyond the solar system? That sounded like sheer bullshit, the kind of very far-fetched bullshit. But on second thought, Li Mu realized he being transported from Earth to that planet itself was a supporting case of that theory. Now that the old faker had managed to send him out of the galaxy in the Power-ending Age when the Spiritual Qi on Earth was about to run out, perhaps people could really do space-travel when the Spiritual Qi was still available, provided that the myths in The Legend of Deification were all true. But that premise had probably been proved solid by the Taoist field Li Mu came across in the Everlasting Heaven. To say the least, he had obtained real Ultimate Yin and Yang Cultivation Method and Somersault Cloud and other miraculous methods. Plus, he had also spotted the Spiritual Fangcun Mountain. Although it sounded surreal to hear Yu Hualon
"The whole universe is our enemy," muttered Yu Hualong darkly. "All the universe?" "He must be exaggerating!" "Earth is just a small planet. The area of all its continents combined perhaps is less than the Divine Land. The Spiritual Qi on Earth is about to be depleted. the continents have been wrecked by mankind to the limit, and the sea is not better off, either. Numerous species on Earth have died out. All the wars and religious purges are still going on. People on Earth will soon find it hard to support themselves. I'm afraid it won't take long before human beings meet their doom they created. So, why would those forces in the universe bother to pick on those Earth dwellers?" "And the old faker also told me Earth would soon be torn down by force." Li Mu could not see why Earth, a planet that would soon be demolished without any prior notice, was worth being chased after by all the forces in the universe.
Bai Mochou strolled down the streets of Taibai County in amazement. She had sensed a very ancient aura. The power of heaven and earth had never been so near at hand. She felt she had traveled to ages ago. That was absolutely abnormal. Bai Mochou darted an irritated look at Li Mu. "What on earth has the jerk done to deserve such a blessed place?" In truth, Li Mu was a little stunned, too. About eight months had passed since he left. With the nurture of the Dragon-assembling Pattern, Taibai County, the eye of the geomancy deployment, had gathered a breathtaking amount of Spiritual Qi. Its density had increased exponentially. Surrounded by such rich Spiritual Qi, even the laws of the Way had begun to grow clear. For martial arts practitioners, that was undoubtedly as helpful as fertilizers for crops. The most obvious sign of those changes was that the plants and animals in Taibai County started to grow at an amazing speed or to mu
Two days ago. At the Guanshan Pasture. Qiu Yin had learned about the death of his master, Li Poyue, on his way back. At that piece of news, he almost lost his mind and immediately hurtled back to Guanshan City to see the body of his master. He had been told that although on the day of that duel, Li Poyue and Dao Chongyang died together with the raiders, parts of the body of his master were found and delivered back to the Guanshan Pasture before being enshrined as a halidom. Huang Shengyi, Deputy Head of the Pasture, who was also known as the Fire Devil, came to the gate of Guanshan City to welcome Qiu Yin in person. "Before Head took off, he left an order which says you should take over his position if anything happens to him. Half a year has passed. Finally, you are back. Our brothers are all dying to tear down Mount Qingcheng to avenge our Head. Now, they are just waiting for you to take the lead!" Said the Fire Devil with an
Hovering in the sky, Huang Shengyi overlooked the peaks rising one after another beneath his feet. The Yue Mountain was one of the famous mountains in the Western Qin Empire. It stretched to several hundred miles afar, known by its vastness, stateliness, vigorousness, and grandeur. For several millennia, the gate of the Yue Mountain Faction had stood at the top of the Yue Mountain, which sat in the heart of that mountain area. Neither mankind nor the demon races had ever conquered that area. The Yue Mountain Faction was one of the most powerful factions in the Western Qin Empire, perhaps only second to the Guanshan Pasture. However, as the time of war was due, the Yue Mountain Faction lost all its business and the control over its territories except for the land where the faction was located in just one day. The once rich and fertile lands were reduced to ruins and scorched earth. Leaving several thousand bodies behind, the rem
Huang Shengyi's flesh and bones were soon burnt into ashes. Then, his soul was exposed. To everyone's astonishment, Huang Shengyi's soul was quite unlike normal souls. Threads of black mist were attached to it, penetrating it like worms and snakes. His soul gave off a sinister, blood-curdling aura and a faint foul odor of decay. Surrounded by the Taoist True Fire and being refined by it, two voices carried out from that soul. One was Huang Shengyi's painful scream, the other was a monstrous, terrifying, ear-splitting roar... "He has even sold his soul to Extra-terrestrial Devils..." At that sight, all the people registered what had happened. The ghostly black sea of fire Huang Shengyi cast at the last moment was on par with the magic of a real Sage. It turned out that the source of that power was from the devil. "Ow... Immortal master, help, help..." Huang Shengyi's soul continued to implore at the e
Upon hearing that voice, Xu Sheng instantly took on an expression of trepidation. "Could it be... him?" The Supreme Elder of the Yue Mountain Faction who had remained calm and optimistic after losing his arms now looked rather apprehensive. Li Mu asked curiously, "Who is it then?" Xu Sheng muttered, "I wish it's not him. If it is, I'm afraid we stand no chance." At that remark, Qiu Yin and the others' hearts shivered. "What kind of man on earth could hold Xu Sheng in fear?" "Let's see who it is then. I do hope it is not him," grunted Xu Sheng. With a grim look, he gazed up at the huge shuttle flying towards them unhurriedly from a kilometer away. It was safe to say that such a flying shuttle was the most advanced equipment the air force of the Western Qin Empire had by that time. It represented the highest achievement of the contemporary star alchemy, which was called the Flying Whale S
Li Mu's cultivation nowadays was at the peak of the Golden Immortal, and his battle power could cut down the first generals.If one were to obtain a drop of Immortal Marrow, one could instantly leap into the peak of Immortal Generals, and at that time, even if one were to face an Immortal King, one would be able to defeat him in battle, not to mention traversing across the major state capitals, even if it was the entire Eastern Sacred Continent, the heavens and the earth were vast, and one could go to it.At that time, it would be like a fish out of water to find Wang Shiyu, Hua Wanyong, and the others.At that thought, Li Mu immediately became desirous of this Immortal Marrow."One drop of Immortal Marrow, one great realm, so if a bottle of Immortal Marrow were all swallowed, wouldn't it directly soar into the Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor or even Immortal Lord realm?" Li Mu said.Xia Jing was stunned and then giggled."I didn't expect that
Uh-huh?What a scene of déjà vu.Li Mu all of a sudden, remembered the legendary Liu Huangshu Baidicheng entrusted the orphan.It's a pity that the Emperor is not Uncle Liu.And Li Mu is not Zhuge Kongming.Li Mu said indifferently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can make a dao oath that I won't taint the imperial power of Huangji Cliff for the rest of my life.""Cough cough cough ......" the emperor coughed, hastily said: "I ...... am not using words to frame you, I... ...In the chaotic world, there is no strength, sooner or later ...... sooner or later is the death ...... of the disaster ...... wood brother you if you are the emperor, or you may be able to ...... preserve a trace of my bloodline, I ......"Li Mu said, "Your Majesty's meaning, I understand, but my words remain the same, I will never dye the royal fist, Emperor Chen will be a bright ruler."The emperor sighed and said, "I understand ...... all ...... all stand down ....
Reimu smiled.Snap your fingers.Phew.A golden stream of light flashed by.Emperor Zhen, who was roaring at the top of his lungs, his voice came to an abrupt end, and his hands covered his neck, a splash of blood seeped out, followed by golden flames, which spewed out from his body."You ...... you dare to kill me?"He looked at Li Mu incredulously and eventually turned into a puff of flying ash.In the great hall, there was an instant dead silence.The horrific images, although they had ended, the aftermath was still like a hurricane, still madly hitting everyone's nerves over and over again.Prince Wood actually went out and killed someone?He actually made a move?Killing a royal son with royal blood flowing in his body right here in this great hall?He dared.He really dared.All the ministers felt that their bodies were cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave, like the cold winter of the t
The other ministers in the hall, hearing such words, could not help but look at Zheng Yuan with shocked gazes.The so-called Emperor Tatsu's son is a wild seed, this kind of thing, if you don't explode it sooner or later, and you don't explode it at this time, what is the intention?Besides, it's not certain whether it's true or not.Saying such words in such an important meeting of the court was tantamount to slapping the emperor's face in public and rubbing the emperor's majesty, on the ground.What a nerve.On one side, Servant Yin's face changed wildly as she shook her head and argued, "No, it's not like that, Chen'er is His Majesty's child ...... "When the Emperor intended to set up Emperor Chen as the Crown Prince just now, she vaguely realized that this was a dangerous signal, the treacherous darkness of the palace court was not something she could resist as a small servant girl.But I didn't expect the slander and danger to come so
"Tatsu-chan!"Servant Yin was filled with a huge surprise in her chest and subconsciously rushed over to the little boy and held him in her arms."Mother, you're here too ...... Mother, I've seen father."The little boy dug into Squire Yin's arms with delight.His first words had to do with his parents.But many snickers resounded clearly and audibly in the great hall.Although no one said anything, the meaning was clear: 'Father' is a word you call, too?Servant Yin, however, didn't pay that much attention.In the instant she saw her son, her heart, without the slightest bit of nervousness or panic, held her son firmly in her arms, and the only thought in her entire life and soul at that moment was to protect her son at all costs."Do not make a noise and stand aside."The Grand Eunuch opened his mouth to chide.The little boy then kept his mouth tightly shut.He was foolish and hadn't seen much of the world, b
A cold aura flickered.A sword to the death.The sharp sword was about to pierce the young maid's brow.Just then, a sudden change occurred.Suddenly space and time seemed to freeze, and the black-clothed assassin realized that his immortal sword, after all, was no longer able to progress the slightest bit.What's going on?He was alarmed in his mind.And yet the next moment--Ding!The sword body incredibly broke apart and turned into countless shards.The tip of the sword flew backward and penetrated the black-clothed assassin's throat.Before the blood could soar out, his body erupted into a ball of golden flames, which then turned into flying ash and dissipated into the air.The little maid looked at what was in front of her in shock.In that moment just now, she thought she was bound to die.It turned out to be the assassin who died.Who saved me?She gasped in horror and looked arou
The Emperor was sitting on the throne of the Nine to Five, a little tired.The fact that he was poisoned was not revealed to the public.So until now, no one has known.But the toxin was eating away at his body so frantically that his energy was declining so much that his entire body felt extremely tired at all times.The sound of ministers' ears arguing seemed near and far away in the ear.The hand-wringing Prince Tatsu was led by the great eunuch and stood on the side of the dragon chair.Eight or nine year old boy, for the first time out of that small compound, face full of fear, timid, like a small goat caught in a wolf pack, not knowing what to do, lowered his head, twisted the corner of his coat, did not even dare to come out of the atmosphere.This look, in the eyes of the ministers, is even more unbearable."Your Majesty's intention to establish a Crown Prince is a major event, and should not be done in haste, perhaps it should
The little boy did not return until late afternoon.The young maid tried to inquire about the news several times, but was mercilessly stopped by the palace's close guards guarding the entrance of the firewood courtyard.She had been until, herself, she was secluded.This alarmed the young maid even more.What the hell is going on?What kind of terrible things would Tatsu'er face if he went to the palace?The Empress and the Noble Consorts, they won't poison him, will they?Why did His Majesty suddenly summon Chen'er to the palace?She speculated in her mind in fear, her tears were like a fountain that she could not control at all.It's a mother's love for her son.Humble but great love.Kneeling on both knees in the courtyard, she looked up at the Hao Sun that was gradually setting in the sky, and at the silver full moon that had already risen, shedding tears and silently praying with her life and soul."Tatsu'e
The Emperor was at the half-step Golden Immortal level of cultivation, and although this realm was forcefully instilled with various resources and secret techniques, the realm was enough after all.The lifespan of a half-step Golden Immortal could be more than five thousand years.So the Emperor never thought that he would have to face death head on, so soon."It's so ...... ungrateful."He smiled bitterly on his face and sighed deeply on the inside.But in the end, you have to face reality.The biggest problem to consider today was who should inherit the throne of Huangji Cliff after his death.He had only ascended the throne as emperor for just over two years, and because he was diligent in his political affairs and too young, he had not even considered the matter of the succession of the throne.In the harem, there are but one wife and two concubines.These three women were not his true love, but were allied for the sake of pr
