The Immortal Fate Conference in Hanyue City is in full swing, and people are rushing to sign up. Almost no one wants to miss such an opportunity.
Especially families with school-age children are struggling to get into Xianyuanfang, for fear that if they arrive late, they will lose the opportunity to embark on the path to immortality.
Fortunately, the city guards have also begun to work hard, and the number of places to enter Xianyuanfang every day is limited.
If it is a person who has already tested his spiritual root, it will be recorded and he will not be allowed to go on stage for testing again.
In fact, with the lessons learned from the previous group of people who wanted to muddle through, no one dared to understand these little thoughts anymore. Even the onlookers no longer dared to make any noise to avoid disturbing the immortals on the stage.
Various shops in the city are also making a lot of money. Today's customer flow alone is equivalent to what they used to do in nearly a month.
However, beyond this bustling appearance, there is still a huge crisis hidden.
City Lord's Mansion, inside Bai Han Tower.
Ye Lin was frowning as he listened to his subordinate's report.
"City Lord, the coalition forces are currently stationed one hundred and sixty miles away from us. Jinlin Army, Beiguang Army, and Chen Mu Army are stationed in the south. To the west are Liuyang Army and Xiyang Army. To the east is Dongyang Army. It seems that over there in Changcheng There was no stopping him and he just let the person come over..."
Under the stage, a soldier in armor was reporting the situation.
"Oh? There was no action from Prince Fengjun? Just let the Dongyang Army pass? This is a bit unexpected..."
Ye Lin rubbed his eyebrows, looking like he had a headache.
The current situation is unprecedentedly severe for Hanyue City.
Except for the Tianyuan Mountains in the north, the other three directions have been surrounded by troops from the imperial court.
Except for the newly established Liuyang Army, almost all of these armies are elites who have fought on the battlefield, and there are even many battle-hardened warriors like the Jinlin Army.
On the other hand, although the city guards are well trained on weekdays, they occasionally participate in operations such as suppressing bandits.
But the nature of this army is doomed. They have never been on the battlefield or participated in a real battle.
Facing such menacing armies from all directions, Hanyue City was like a small boat in the huge waves, and would be submerged in an instant.
Of course, this is the normal situation.
Now, the reason why Ye Lin still has the courage to resist the imperial court is entirely because of the immortal who has appeared in the city in recent days, that is, the Tianyuan Sect.
By asking for help from the senior swordsman, he finally managed to get the answer he wanted.
At the beginning, when Ye Lin asked the immortal to help fight the war, the other party almost didn't even think about it and flatly rejected his request.
According to Liu Ye's words, Tianyuan Sect is a place for cultivating immortality outside the world and will not participate in mortal wars.
Fortunately, Ye Lin explained the situation to the other party in time, saying that they were forced to do so. If they did not resist, Emperor Xuanyang's army would kill all the people in Hanyue City. Only then did the other party change their attitude and began to hesitate. stand up.
Of course, Pei Laoliu would not believe what he said so easily, so he did not agree immediately.
After all, the massacre of the city was just Ye Lin's guess.
He himself was a little unbelievable. Could it be that the monarch of a dynasty wanted to massacre an entire city of people just because he said "there is no justice in the world"?
You must know that these are his own people. What kind of person can do such crazy things?
According to Pei Laoliu's world view, this is almost unimaginable.
However, as a modern person, although he has never experienced an era like the Dafu Dynasty, he has been exposed to some historical movies and TV series. In the ancient times of China, situations similar to massacres of cities did not happen.
Therefore, according to Liu Ye, Tianyuan Sect will not participate in wars between mortals.
But if it was an inhumane massacre like this, especially in a city like Hanyue City that maintained a friendly attitude towards the sect, then there was no way he would have a hand in it.
This is also the reason why Ye Lin has not given up completely until now.
The scenes that happened in the city lord's backyard were all personally experienced by him, and they were still fresh in his memory.
With the help of the Immortal Chief, he believed that he should be able to successfully defend the people in Hanyue City under the siege of the imperial court.
Otherwise, how could a small Hanyue City compete with such a huge Dafu Dynasty?
"The surrounding cities have already sent large armies towards us. After they have assembled, they may launch an attack at almost any time... Zheng Chong, after you go back, mobilize more manpower and strengthen the investigation of the surrounding areas. If there is any movement, you must report to me immediately. , don’t neglect it.”
Ye Lin ordered the people in the audience.
"yes!"
The soldier clasped his fists and accepted the order, then turned and left.
Ye Lin raised his head, looked in the direction of the capital, and murmured to himself:
"Your Majesty...what are you thinking...why do you have to pay such a price to maintain your words...what are you afraid of...?"
…
Aqua Blue Star, in Rebirth Island.
Zhang Xiaoman was floating in the air above Tianquan Island, holding a green bag in his hand.
This is the middlemost area of Qixing Lake, where the World Tree is located.
Under his feet was a huge tree nearly four hundred meters high.
It has lush branches and leaves, and the branches that spread out almost cover the entire island, which shows how huge it is.
Compared with the height of less than 200 meters when it first appeared, the World Tree has nearly doubled in height in the past six months, and now it looks as majestic and majestic as a small mountain from a distance.
These are naturally due to Zhang Xiaoman.
Through continuous upgrades, while improving the functions of the World Tree, he also continued to increase its size. Each addition of a new module would make it grow to a certain height, which is how it looks now.
"Hey, if this trend continues, it won't be long before Tianquan Island can no longer accommodate it..."
He looked at the big tree below with a troubled expression.
By then, I am afraid that not only Tianquan Island, but also the entire Qixing Lake and even Rebirth Island may not be able to hold it.
If you think about it in the longer term, it is estimated that the entire Aqua Blue Star will not be able to fit in it.
Of course, this situation is unlikely to happen for the time being, after all, the World Tree is still very far away from that level.
However, if Zhang Xiaoman wants to increase and upgrade it, it will inevitably increase the size of the World Tree, which is also very frustrating.
"Xingxue, is there no way to suppress the growth of World Tree?"
He looked at the Starnet terminal on his wrist.
Xingxue's reply came from the watch.
"I'm sorry, Star Master, the growth of the Star Network host is an inevitable condition and cannot be suppressed. As long as you strengthen it, its size will also grow."
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head when he heard this. He couldn't solve this problem with his current strength, so he could only make plans for it later.
At worst, when the size of the World Tree exceeds the critical value he defined, he would temporarily stop strengthening it. It would not be too late to continue until a suitable method is found.
