So I am a little envious of those immortal disciples, but now I have achieved quite a lot. Lan
Not only is he the leader of a country, but he is also accomplished in the immortal way. He has condensed his energy, and his strength is no different than those of the immortal sect ancestors.
Therefore, Lu Yuan's emotion only lasted for a few breaths and was quickly suppressed.
And compared to this, what benefits he can bring to himself after his current breakthrough in strength makes him even more worthy of concern.
"The Book of Taiping Taoism records twenty-seven spells and five magical powers. Among them, there are two introductory spells, the art of talisman water and the art of talisman sword. I have never started in the immortal way before, and my magic power is still weak, so I only learn He learned one of the talisman sword techniques.
But this technique alone helped me kill Gui Lianyun and Zhang Chanyi, and later defeated He Basheng. It was extremely powerful.
There was only one Talisman Technique left, so I didn't learn it because I wanted to save mana and spiritual energy.
But judging from the description in Taoist books, this is a healing technique. Although it cannot reach the level of flesh and bones between living and dead people, it can still relieve most of the pain and trauma. Lan
Drinking a bowl of talisman water is much better than being one of the many so-called miracle doctors.
Now that I have gathered my energy and have sufficient mana, I can pick up this method and learn it.
After all, there are frequent wars now, with many casualties.
Although I am not afraid, many of my generals and officials are easily threatened. At this time, I refined a few talismans and gave them to some important ministers, which could save their lives.
There are also further magical powers that can be mastered after condensing one's energy, and one must become proficient in these. "
Lu Yuan began to plan his next cultivation process.
In the Book of Taiping, the magical powers that can be learned in each realm are different. Lan
Before getting started, my magic power was shallow and I could only learn the techniques of Talisman Water and Talisman Sword.
After condensing one's Qi and having a slightly deeper mana, one can further master one magical power, plus three more powerful spells.
By analogy, every time you gather one Qi from now on, you can learn one more magical power and three more spells.
In this way, when the five qi are perfected, you can learn the five magical powers and twenty-seven spells.
Lu Yuan has now condensed his energy. In this realm, he can learn a magical power, which is called the Yellow Turban Warrior.
As the name suggests, this magical power can be used to summon yellow scarf warriors to kill enemies for the master.
With his current magic power, he can summon a yellow scarf warrior, whose strength is roughly equal to that of a grandmaster at the second level of Xiantian. Lan
And if the magic power improves in the future, the number and strength of the Yellow Turban Warriors can be gradually increased.
In the end, it turned out to be what is described in the book, with a wave of the hand, sowing the beans and forming an army, and tens of thousands of yellow turban warriors appeared in an instant, it was inevitable.
Just to achieve this step, the level of mana required is destined to be very high, and the five qi may not be enough. You have to break through the real people and become the legendary immortal.
At this time, Lu Yuan no longer had extravagant hopes.
In addition to the magical power of the Yellow Turban Warrior, there are also three spells, namely Mire Technique, Earth Wall Technique, and Ground Thorn Technique.
As can also be seen from the name, the quagmire technique can turn an area into a swamp. The specific range is probably around a hundred feet.
Of course, this was estimated based on Lu Yuan's current mana. If you have enough mana, you can turn the entire world into a swamp. Lan
…
The power of this spell is average, and it is not very effective for experts above the innate level. Even for first-class experts, it only has a slight impact.
But for people below the first level, it is a powerful tool to clear the field.
Especially those ordinary people who fell into the swamp and couldn't move at all. It won't take long before he will be swallowed up and die.
In addition, turning an area into a swamp is also a good way to stop it.
A swamp was created on the only road that the army must pass, which was enough to block the road and prevent it from moving forward.
Generally speaking, this is an auxiliary spell that tends to be group-oriented, especially in the military aspect.
However, it can also be seen from this that the Taiping Daoshu technique was indeed created for the purpose of conquering the world, and it is indeed a method of luck. Lan
Then there is the earth wall technique, which can summon an earth wall to block attacks from one direction for the caster.
Based on Lu Yuan's current mana, the earth wall he summoned should be enough to block a full blow from a master of the same level, which can be regarded as a very strong defense.
Of course, this extremely powerful defense can only protect against one aspect.
If you guard against the front, others can also find loopholes if they hit you from the left, right, behind, or even from above and below.
So when facing an enemy here, the effect is quite outstanding. But in the face of the siege, it seemed to be somewhat inadequate.
As for the final ground stabbing technique, it is an attack spell.
You can cast spells to summon sharp stone thorns directly from the ground to suddenly attack the enemy. Moreover, the number of stone thorns conjured can be adjusted at will according to the caster's mana and consciousness. Lan
Theoretically speaking, as long as you are strong enough, you can conjure as many stone thorns as you want.
This is a spell that is suitable for both single targets and groups.
Lu Yuan recalled the effects and capabilities of these magical spells, and slowly thought in his mind: "The three spells that condense one energy can be ignored until then.
Although the power of these spells is good, they are of limited help to me for the time being, and I can learn them slowly later.
But the magical power of the Yellow Turban Warrior must be learned. "
For Lu Yuan now, he actually doesn't have many opportunities to fight against the enemy.
Putting aside the fact that if you want to fight him, you must at least have the strength of an innate grandmaster. Lan
But there are only a few Xiantian Grandmasters in the world. The total number of Xiantian Grandmasters in the entire Nine Provinces and Ten Regions may only be two to three hundred, and no more than four hundred at most.
With such a rare number spread over the vast world, there can basically only be one innate grandmaster in one county. Even poorer counties cannot produce innate masters.
So basically, it's not because they are in a hurry. Two grandmasters will not fight easily.
And with Lu Yuan's strength, even if he met an innate master, with his concentrated immortal cultivation and the innate support of martial arts.
Basically, the martial arts magical power Chiyang True Fire is used to confuse the enemy head-on. Secretly, he used the Thunder Sound Technique from the Five Thunder Book to frighten the enemy's soul, and finally used the Talisman Sword Technique from the Taiping Dao Book to attack and behead him in a sneak attack.
After this set of procedures, basically no grandmaster in the first realm of Xiantian can escape. A grandmaster who is in the second realm of Xiantian, if he is more negligent and less powerful, he will still fall into it.
There is no such thing as He Basheng before, who is extremely powerful in the second realm of innateness, and has the opportunity to detect danger, escape and ascend to heaven. Lan
…
As for the great master of the third level of Xiantian, there is no one in the world, so we don’t think about it.
Therefore, judging from the above experience, Lu Yuan is now an invincible crushing existence when encountering today's innate masters, whether they are in the first or second realm.
From a warrior's perspective, there is no rival for him in the world.
Nowadays, the only people who can pose a threat to him are those top-notch Taoist masters of the same realm.
But those beings are inherently detached from the world and do not interfere in human disputes. As long as their fundamental interests are not touched, they can basically be said to be pure-minded.
Except for Alchemy Dao, whom Lu Yuan had offended before, he basically didn't have to worry about other Alchemists coming to trouble him.
Judging from Dan Ding Dao's observations over the past year, although he was severely offended by himself, he seemed to have chosen to swallow his anger and not have any thoughts of revenge. Lan
And even if the opponent really comes to fight, even if Lu Yuan learns those three spells, there is a high probability that he will still be unable to defeat the Alchemy Taoist Master, which is the same as if he didn't learn it.
And whether he has learned it or not, he can still have the confidence to save a life.
You will lose anyway, and you will not die anyway, so there is no need to waste precious mana on learning these spells that you will not use yet.
Nowadays, every time one point of fairy energy is used in the world, one point is lost.
At this time, Lu Yuan was just like Dao Master Ziyun and others when he participated in the Tianluo Association. They didn't use spells if they could.
It’s not that I don’t know how to use it, it’s that I can’t bear it.
After all, it was the mana that I had worked so hard to pry out from the remaining spiritual energy of heaven and earth above the sky. It would be increasingly difficult to replenish it after it was used up. Lan
"In this age of Dharma-ending times, it is really difficult to become an immortal."
Lu Yuan sighed, put aside the bitterness in his heart, then raised his pen and began to write an edict.
He doesn't plan to learn three new spells, but only wants to learn one magical power.
But it is not that easy to learn the Yellow Turban Warriors.
There are two types of magical powers, namely external magical powers and internal magical powers.
Those with external supernatural powers use external objects to display their magical powers.
To put it simply, it is to borrow the treasures of heaven and earth and carve magical runes into them to fix magical powers. Lan
When it's time to use it, you only need to instill mana from within to use your magical power.
Those with inner magical powers cultivate their bodies internally and use their bodies to possess magical powers.
Roughly speaking, it is to outline magical runes within the body and integrate them into the body to form a kind of invisible magic organ with a fixed trajectory.
When it is used, with a thought and the flow of mana, this magic organ can be activated, so that it can use magical powers instantly according to the fixed magic ritual.
The above two magical powers, because the magical runes are fixed, the spells they can use are more powerful than the spells cast by the monks in a hurry.
And because it is a formed spell, as long as the mind moves and there is enough mana in the body, the spell can be cast instantly.
In this way, both the power and the speed of casting spells are much better than those of ordinary monks. Lan
This is also the reason why supernatural powers are generally stronger than magic.
…
The Yellow Turban Warrior that Lu Yuan wants to practice now is an external magical power.
If you want to learn this magical power, you must not only understand the magical runes of this magical power to the extent that it can be used. It is also necessary to prepare some treasures from heaven and earth as external vessels, or outer bodies, to accommodate the drawing of magical runes.
"According to the Taoist scriptures, it is best to use spirit beans for the external weapons of the Yellow Turban Warriors.
Draw and carve runes directly into the spirit beans to give birth to magical embryos. With the help of magic power, you can instantly transform into a powerful warrior.
And because they are embryos, such yellow scarf warriors can be arbitrarily transformed into various types according to the user's wishes when used, and given various attributes, making them more adaptable and powerful.
Even if there are too many magical beans of this kind, they can evolve into a great magical power and become soldiers by scattering the beans. Lan
With a wave of his hand, the magic beans spilled out, and thousands of yellow scarf warriors fought for the Lord.
But now the spirit of the immortals on this earth has exhausted, and it has entered the age of the end of Dharma. Not to mention spiritual beans, all other creatures that rely on spiritual energy to survive are almost extinct.
Under such circumstances, it is basically impossible to find spiritual beans.
So if this road doesn't work, you have to find other ways. Use other spiritual things to replace the spirit beans.
Although other spiritual objects were used instead, the created Yellow Turban Hercules had a fixed form from the beginning and had great limitations. Moreover, it cannot be turned into spiritual beans, so it is not easy to collect them.
But even so, it is a great good thing for me and the Chu State to be able to create a Yellow Turban Warrior who is approximately equal to the second-level innate strength. "
What is the biggest drawback for the current state of Chu? Lan
It’s not that the country is small.
Nowadays, Chu State, which has four counties and twenty-five prefectures, ranks among the top twenty in the entire Nine Provinces. Second only to those top world hegemons, it can be called a first-class power.
It’s not that the people are short of money.
Nowadays, the population of Chu State exceeds 7 million, and the annual income is 20 million taels of silver. It can be said that the people are prosperous and the country is prosperous.
The same is not true of a weak army and a weak general.
Now the Chu State has more than 200,000 troops, all of whom are capable of hundreds of battles. With a little mobilization, a million-strong army can be mobilized in an instant. With this kind of military power, even the world's hegemon can fight.
The real weakness of Chu State is its top combat power, its innate master. Lan
Da Chu now has four counties, but the territory has been divided into four parts.
Jianghan Plain in the north of the Yangtze River, Dongting Plain in the south of the Yangtze River, the land of Xichuan, and the land of central Guizhou.
These four areas are all divided by mountains and are thousands of miles apart. It is quite difficult to communicate with each other and it is difficult to take care of each other.
It is precisely because of this that at this time, on the Xichuan side, even though he knew that Xichuan County was facing a serious threat from the Nanzhao Kingdom, Lu Yuan could not do anything to make positive changes except to strengthen troops there and passively defend.
Why?
It's because he doesn't have an innate grandmaster who can lead an entire party and take charge of his own affairs.
It is precisely because of this disadvantage that Lu Yuan's battle situation in Xichuan was so passive. Even the war in Qianzhong County was slightly affected. Lan
Otherwise, there are only eight prefectures in Qianzhong County now, which is still two prefectures short of the current mainstream plan of one county and ten prefectures. Why doesn't Lu Yuan make up for it?
…
You must know that Huichuan Kingdom is on the west bank of Lu River, and a small half of this country's territory has been incorporated into Ashan Prefecture. Most of the remaining territory was divided into two prefectures by Lu Yuan early and was ready to be merged into Qianzhong County.
But this matter has been delayed until now. A year has passed and there is still no action.
In addition to the fact that Chu State is too small to swallow up too much territory for the time being.
Perhaps it was because Lu Yuan's avatar was weak and he didn't want to cross the Lushui River now and give up this natural barrier, go further into the hinterland of the Southwest Yi, and directly entangle with the Dachanghe Kingdom and the Nanzhao Kingdom.
At this time, there is Lu River dividing line. Facing this natural danger, only a small amount of troops and energy can be used to cut off Da Changhe's army.
Lu Yuan can also let go and carry out various reforms in Qianzhong County. Divide prefectures and counties, clean up areas, exterminate the remaining bandits, organize households and people...
The policies mentioned above can all be implemented with peace of mind without external interference.
At this time, Dachangheguo was also entangled with the mad dog Li Xiong.
Before solving the other party, they did not want to further provoke Lu Yuan and let the two sides start another war in Huichuan Kingdom.
Otherwise, if there is a war on both sides, the current situation of Daochangwa Country will be really unstoppable and the country will be at risk of subjugation.
It is for this reason that the two countries entered into a long-term confrontation and maintained peace for a year after the Dachanghe army was completely driven across the Lu River in October last year.
If this peace is maintained at this time, both sides can live in peace before Li Xiong is defeated.
But if Lu Yuan leads his army to break into Aichuan Kingdom, then he will step out of his role as a behind-the-scenes pusher and stand in front of the stage to compete with Dacho Kazukuni again. Lan
It’s not even just Daochangwa Country.
You must know that the Huichuan Kingdom is already bordering the Nanzhao Kingdom. If Lu Yuan attacks there, it is impossible not to arouse the vigilance of the Nanzhao Kingdom.
By that time, Chu State is likely to face the joint enemy of Da Changhe State and Nanzhao State, and is completely stuck in the quagmire of Huichuan State, unable to get out.
It can be seen from the current situation of Chu State that Xichuan County is in danger and the border is threatened by Nanzhao State's hundreds of thousands of troops.
The big countries of Zhou, Liang, and Ning also made frequent border moves after the news of Zhou Qing's breakthrough last year spread, and they invariably strengthened their military forces in the areas bordering Xiangyang and Dongting counties.
Even the country of Su in the south is fighting with the country of Dali at this time.
But where is Dali? Lan
Barbarians in the southwest, remote areas.
Just look at today's Qianzhong County. How much money can be gained from conquering that kind of place?
To attack there, it would be better to attack Dongting County and Nanhai Kingdom.
The harvest from conquering these two places will be huge, and it can directly increase the national power of Su State by two or three times.
And with Su Xuange's ambitious character who made no secret of his ambition, especially coupled with the other party's current difficult financial situation, Lu Yuan was really worried that this mad dog would turn around and bite him back.
He doesn't believe that something like a covenant can restrict the other party.
The reason why Su Xuange didn't dare to take action at the moment was simply because he was afraid of himself and the powerful strength of Chu State. Lan
So to sum up, looking around around the Chu State today, it can be said that it is surrounded by dangers, and the country is in danger of being destroyed at any time.
…
Under such circumstances, how dare Lu Yuan, how could he risk being dragged into the quagmire of war and unable to escape, and go fight against Huichuan Kingdom with peace of mind.
If he is really dragged here and other countries see the opportunity and rush forward, then Chu will really be doomed.
Therefore Lu Yuan cannot be held back.
He, the military god of hundreds of battles, is Chu's greatest deterrent to the outside world today.
As long as Lu Yuan is still there, as long as he can still act, then when all the countries in the world want to plot against Chu, they will definitely be a little wary and dare not act rashly.
And as long as everyone is afraid, no one will stand up and take the lead. Lan
Then the Chu State can rely on this deterrence to maintain the current peaceful situation and slowly get through the weak period in the early days of the founding of the country.
In the next ten or twenty years, Sun Siwen and his eldest son Lu He will grow up. By then, one country and five innates will naturally not be afraid of any threats.
But those are things for the future.
Now Lu Yuan cannot be dragged to Qianzhong County or to Southwest Yi.
He must remain mobile at any time to maintain his powerful deterrence. To frighten those enemies who are eyeing and coveting the Chu Kingdom.
"But now, if we can add a second-level innate Yellow Turban Warrior, then Chu will have one more pillar to support the country. At that time, I will have my hands and feet free to do what I want to do."
Lu Yuan thought of this and rushed the written supply order with a deep look in his eyes. Lan
To train the Yellow Turban Warriors, you need spiritual objects.
And now among the spiritual beings under the sky, apart from those immortal sects with caves in the sky, the only ones that can be searched for by the outside world are basically those divine blood mutants.
Fortunately, over the years, the Chu State has collected many different species of divine blood. Many of them were slaughtered and their spiritual blood was collected to make elixirs.
But after the spiritual blood was released, the bodies of those divine blood mutants still remained, which could barely be regarded as spiritual materials.
Although I don't know if it is qualified or not, I think that no matter how bad it is, I should be able to barely train an innate yellow scarf warrior.
Even if it doesn't have the strength of the second realm due to quality issues, it would be great to have the strength of the ordinary first realm.
One more innate combat power is enough to alleviate Chu State's current embarrassment regarding top-level combat power. Lan
With this thought in mind, Lu Yuan summoned his chamberlain and asked him to transfer the order in his hand, use it as a seal, and immediately send it back to the Kingdom of Chu.
Most of the various spiritual materials accumulated by the Chu State over the years have been moved to Baling City, the current capital. Inside, there were approximately seven remains of nearly seven divine-blooded mutants, all of which were left behind after being slaughtered.
[In view of the general environment,
In addition, the eleven first-class sects in Chu State have also accepted the management of Chu State and promised to pay tribute to a portion of the divine blood every year. Moreover, their sect has accumulated some remains of divine blood mutants over the years, and the number should be similar to that accumulated by Chu State.
The combination of these two aspects should be enough to refine a Yellow Turban Warrior.
But now, the queen and ministers in the country have to communicate with those first-class sects and ask them to sacrifice their bodies.
After the collection is complete, ask someone to escort them over.
Lu Yuan can't leave Qianzhong County now, and he needs someone to keep an eye on him at all times. Lan
Otherwise, once he leaves, it is hard to imagine how much trouble the unwilling Yi people in Dachanghe country and county will cause.
If you want to become a Yellow Turban Warrior, you can only do it here.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan was not in a hurry to refine the Yellow Turban Warrior, and could wait for the materials to be sent from the country.
He has just gathered his strength now, and his cultivation has not yet been stabilized. It will take him two to three months to slowly master this newly added power.
During this period of stabilizing his cultivation, he was just waiting for the spiritual materials to be delivered.
Two or three months is almost enough time for the country to coordinate with those first-class sects, exchange interests, and obtain the remains of alien species.
That's it. Lan
After the breakthrough and gathering strength, Lu Yuan did not make a big fanfare, nor did the whole world celebrate.
Instead, he was hiding in the palace in a low-key manner as before.
While taking time off to deal with government affairs, he slowly stabilized his cultivation and accumulated his own strength.
Time also passed by in these peaceful days for another year, and came to the new sixth year of Shenwu.
