Dahan, Henan County.
The night is dark.
A dragon's foot poked out from the void and suddenly clenched it tightly.
The space was shattered, and the figure holding the Spring and Autumn Sword was forced out again.
He swung his sword across.
The moment the sword collided with the dragon's claw, the shadow of a piece of bronze armor appeared on the dragon's feet.
The dragon's feet relied on the bronze armor to tighten and directly grasp the spine of the Spring and Autumn Sword.
The figure holding the sword exerted force, and the sword glow skyrocketed.
At the moment when the two sides were in a stalemate, a thin black line appeared and pierced the heart of the figure holding the sword.
This thin line did not come from the emperor's attack, but its power, speed, and threat were no less than the emperor's.
"The Han Dynasty also hides a being who is not inferior to the emperor..." The man holding the sword was frightened.
There was an emperor's helper lurking in the dark, and he didn't even notice it beforehand!
He suddenly let go of the Spring and Autumn Sword and retreated.
But it was a moment too late, and a black line flashed past.
There was blood everywhere.
The black thread pierced his chest!
Dragon feet and an illusory hand like a shadow both grabbed him.
Strong pressure filled the void.
The figure holding the sword paused for a moment, wounded but unable to escape the pursuit of the emperor and the man in the dark.
But then a fourth force appeared in the void and collided with the dragon's feet. The man holding the sword and the arriving responders escaped at the same time and retreated.
"Zongheng Half-Saint and Arms Master, you all showed up!"
The emperor's voice.
The next moment, the dragon roared.
Within a hundred miles, the void collapsed, and a pair of dragon eyes appeared in the clouds. They penetrated the mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty and quickly found the two figures moving away.
The two were already dozens of miles away.
They used a small bronze mirror and hung it above their heads.
The power of the bronze mirror was special. The two of them were covered under the mirror. Every time they jumped into the void, the mirror would glow, reflecting the two of them, and they would run in other directions.
The differentiated people, auras, and power fluctuations in the mirror are all the same as those of the two people who escaped. It is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
In an instant, dozens more escapees appeared, heading in all directions.
Boom!
The dragon's feet pressed down from the clouds, and the figures that fled in all directions were all suppressed under the feet and collapsed one after another.
That night, on the plains of Henan County, dragon roars shook the sky, and the dragon's feet reached down from the top of the sky, covering hundreds of miles, annihilating and crushing everything.
"Your Majesty, calm down and stop chasing me!"
A cold and obscure voice, which seemed to have not spoken for a long time, sounded: "It's just two managers hiding in the dark. Why is Your Majesty so angry?"
The man holding the sword guessed correctly. There was someone hiding next to the emperor in the palace of the Han Dynasty.
This person is the emperor's last barrier and guardian.
It is also a manifestation of the profound cultural heritage of the Han Dynasty.
He showed up for the first time, and the black linear aura he released just now severely injured the man holding the sword.
"I discussed with Qu Bing and Wei Qing, and we jointly set up a situation, with one person responsible for one side.
When I discussed with them, Qu Bing said that he stayed behind to deal with the situation, which was my order. He said that I would be responsible for the affairs within the Han Dynasty, and the two of them would fight outside the country to defeat the enemy. If I let someone run away, but the two of them successfully completed their goals... Do you know what it means? "
The emperor was silent for a moment: "Do you think I don't want to lose face? The plan of three people was in vain on my side?"
The last guard of the Han Palace:
"Your Majesty's cultivation level is higher than that of Champion Hou and General Wei. But His Majesty has no chance to fight and lacks experience. It is not surprising that he was run away by his opponent."
The emperor directly ignored the topic: "You just severely injured your opponent and pierced his chest with your breath. How much of a threat did you pose to him?
Can you tell who he is? "
"At the semi-saint level, it is difficult to kill without piercing the place where the soul is hidden between the eyebrows. But he was pierced through the chest by my power. It was a serious injury and it will be difficult to recover for a long time."
"I don't know his identity.
But he was the one who stole that part of my Yin body. I felt the aura of the same origin in him. "
The emperor seemed to be as expected: "It seems that Zong Heng Dao did it when someone stole part of your Yin body to practice.
Those two people had been hiding in the dark for a very long time. They had so much knowledge and so many treasures that even I was surprised. "
"For a treasure of this level like the Spring and Autumn Sword to be taken away by His Majesty, it's enough for them to feel distressed."
"Qubing said that Zonghengdao also stole and absorbed some of the remaining memories of Empress Lu after her death.
In this way, many things can go right, including the fact that part of your Yin body is missing..."
"The ancient mirror they used when leaving can be used to reflect the fake body. What's the origin?"
"Your Majesty knows that my soul is incomplete and I can't remember many things.
I do know that there is a rare treasure in ancient times that can separate souls and frighten souls, like an ancient mirror. "
"I have one more thing to report."
"The opponent failed to escape successfully, and the man holding the sword was hit in the chest and abdomen.
I can have a slight sense of its location. "
The emperor said happily: "That's very good. When I contacted Qu Bing and Wei Qing, I said that I let them go on purpose, waiting to gather strength to catch them all."
"Your Majesty... you are truly a saint!"
————
"When we prepared the plan in advance, we let the poisonous person take the lead, and you would appear later. If there was an ambush, we would take advantage of the situation to contain the opponent, or retreat eastward.
However, for nearly a day, you are still within the boundaries of Henan County, why don't you move east? "
The two escaped from the emperor's pursuit, concealed their whereabouts, and communicated through sound transmission.
The other voice was weak and low, that of the holder of the Spring and Autumn Sword who had been wounded: "The emperor and Huo Qubing have already prepared and arranged for our attack.
When I appeared, so did the Emperor. "
"We obviously underestimated the power of that emperor. In addition to his lack of combat experience, his power is very terrifying.
In the Han Dynasty, the mountains and rivers were moved and reversed.
Every plant and tree of the Han Dynasty was used by him. Have you ever fought against an emperor within his own country? "
The other person was silent for a moment: "His practice is not the first to become a semi-saint as judged before?"
"He has reached the peak of the second realm of Semi-Saint. If he succeeds in conferring Zen this time, he may be promoted."
Semi-Saint is a big realm, and there is no clear hierarchy in itself.
However, those who have been immersed in it for a long time and those who have just become semi-saints will inevitably have different control and use of power.
Therefore, the semi-saint level is divided into junior, middle and high levels according to the degree of mastery of the same level of power, which are called first-level, second-level and third-level semi-saints.
"That emperor has actually reached the second level. It has been less than a year since he was promoted to Half-Saint..."
"The emperor's cultivation has never relied on hard work and time, but on the destiny of the country."
"In the past two years, every time the Han army conquered a country, or made gains in governing the country, or the country's fortunes improved, the emperor was the most intuitive beneficiary.
The current territory of the Han Dynasty is so large and its luck is so great that the Han emperor's practice will continue to improve.
Therefore, I have always opposed your use of alienation tactics to divide the emperor and Huo Qubing, because it is destined to be useless. "
The voice of the man holding the sword said: "The current emperor, how many civil and military ministers in the court have been eliminated by him? This also includes the people beside him and the concubines in the palace.
He would not even frown when he killed these people.
Wei Qing was always cautious and modest in court and never went overboard. I guess I'm just afraid that if I'm a little disrespectful, my master's achievements will be shaken and he won't end up well.
Due to the emperor's character, he remained tolerant of Huo Qubing.
Is it really because he raised Huo Qubing since he was a child, and the two of them love each other like father and son? "
The voice in the void was obviously sarcastic: "The real reason is that Huo Qubing is the most important and indispensable link in his plan.
Huo Qubing's performance in the past three years was also amazing and brilliant, and probably exceeded the emperor's own expectations. "
"So he trusts Huo Qubing more than anyone else."
“The emperor’s original idea was nothing more than to conquer the Xiongnu and pacify the barbarians.
This has been the greatest ambition of emperors of all dynasties, but first Wei Qing, then Huo Qubing, achieved success year after year and were victorious in every battle.
Especially after Huo Qubing was born, he did so well. In three years, they defeated the Xiongnu and other barbarians, and the Shendu and Dayue clan were also defeated and devoured by them. "
“His performance allowed the emperor to see new possibilities and directions.
The Han Emperor's current goal is to grant the title of Zen and trace back to ancient times. If Huo Qubing or Wei Qing makes another move to defeat Parthia, his ambition will be even greater... So we must not let him succeed, otherwise we will have no chance and will have to wait to die! "
"After Emperor Qin, there was another Han Wu."
"And the champion, the nineteen-year-old at the top of the world."
"What he has done in the past few years is as if he understands the direction of destiny and never makes a mistake. He cultivates military skills, so he uses every opportunity to start wars to pacify the barbarians and strengthen the Han Dynasty, and cultivates his own military skills. Keep breaking through.”
"Have you ever thought about the reason why he is so eager to reach the realm and sacrifice the life star?"
"Are you saying that he was eager to get rid of his destiny, so he seized every opportunity to start a war and improve his spiritual practice?"
"That's right, at the Half-Saint level, one can escape fate. His goal should be to be promoted to Half-Saint as soon as possible!"
Another person asked: "Why is there suddenly an extra person next to the emperor?"
"It's not a sudden addition... He has been there for a long time. We have had contact with him."
"You mean the part of the Yin body you obtained, the source of military training. He is not dead?"
"..."
"Except for us, how is the situation on the other two sides?"
"The poisonous people are chased by Huo Qubing, and there will be no good results, but they have nothing to do with us anymore, and they are no longer of use value."
"As for the other side, they should have already taken action."
————
Jiaodong coast.
"General Xiao Shehu, you are here to inspect at such a late hour."
A captain came out of the military camp and saw Xiao Shehu, who was full of fierceness and armor, leading a group of people to patrol the camp late at night.
Xiao Shehu glanced at the military camp stationed in a coastal village, and then took his people to check carefully everywhere.
After a while, he continued what he just said and responded to the captain who was following him on patrol:
"Last time when the champion came back from the sea, he mentioned that we should strengthen our defense. How dare we be careless?"
Several people around him fell silent and looked at each other.
They were military cronies cultivated by the clan. In a sense, they were different from the Huo Qubing camp.
But no Han army dared to ignore Huo Qubing's advice or military judgment.
With his instructions when he landed, Xiao Shehu would personally patrol the coastline for several days without any slack.
Only Liu Chai, who was following behind in the team, pouted and disapproved.
"Besides, His Majesty's team has arrived at Mount Tai tonight. The next day is the official day of the Zen ceremony. Mount Tai is less than five hundred miles away from us. If something happens and the Holy Master is disturbed, who will be responsible?"
After talking loudly, he looked towards the coast: "Is there anything unusual along the coast these days?"
"No."
After Xiao Shehu made a detailed inspection and found no problems, he rode back to the county town of Linhai in Jiaodong County.
And that night, after he left, there was a darkness on the sea, like fog.
The mist merged with the void and quietly approached the coast.
At the same time in Parthia, Wei Qing led his troops and horses, marched quickly, and appeared in the city of Nordea.
This city is the strategic location of Parthia. It is located almost in the middle of the country and connects the east and west ends.
In the night, Wei Qing led his army and suddenly appeared outside the city.
The Han army immediately launched an offensive against the city.
boom!
Zhang Cigong jumped forward, and the city gate was hit by the wave of his sword that broke through the air, shaking the whole city.
