The nine states are vast, the world is vast, Mangzhou is located in the north, and there are two states of Hanshang in the west. It is vast and boundless. Since ancient times, there have been constant disputes and endless wars. There are dozens of large and small countries and hundreds of tribes. The six major kingdoms such as Yuan and Dashi have the power. The strongest.
The two states have unique civilizations that believe in theocracy. Gods and religions dominate everything, and no country or tribe dares to disobey them.
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Jiang Li had already left Anmang, used the magic power of shrinking the earth, and walked westward alone.
The Jingyuan Sect's bounty of treasures was still second, and the main purpose of his trip was to seize control of the Yeshan Kingdom.
Compared with the treasure of the Sun and Moon Temple that can increase the source of the soul, the geographical location and strategic significance of the Yeshan Kingdom are obviously more important to Jiang Li and An Mang.
After all, with the golden pages in hand, plundering pure spiritual thoughts is just a matter of convenience, but once the noble forces of Yeshan Kingdom succeed in usurping power, he will lose the best springboard to enter the Western Region.
Huhuhu
Jiang Li had just stepped into the border of Hanzhou, and the world seemed to have changed into a different color, surrounded by a quiet yellow.
The wind and sand with an ancient atmosphere whizzed past the vast sky and earth, crashed into the gravel, and made a hoarse tune, telling the constant changes of time and space.
He seemed to have stepped into another world, and everything in front of him had a real and distant feeling.
The yellow sand underfoot is fine and stretches for hundreds of miles.
Jiang Li stood by a salt-alkali lake, his eyes slowly closed, and his spiritual senses, physical senses, and true energy were all released.
In an instant, all the auras and auras of everything within a thousand-mile radius fell into Jiang Li's mind.
These auras are extremely complex and contain various attributes. They seem to be very ordinary, but through Jiang Li's triple sense, they gradually separate dozens of completely different and strange fluctuations.
It's like the imprint of some higher-level power, hidden but not obvious, subtle but immortal, all over the world, everywhere, everywhere.
""Jiuzhou Chronicles" records that in ancient legends, Han and Shang states were once the places where gods and demons fell. Countless years ago, they were the place where three thousand primitive gods and demons fought. It is indeed not groundless. This place was definitely a place a long time ago. The former residence of the gods that contains countless secrets and truths!”
After a long time, Jiang Li just slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were ethereal, but there was a flash of wisdom that could decipher everything.
There are countless ancient spiritual imprints floating between the heaven and the earth in Han and Shang states. They are indeed holy places to gather faith and unite gods.
Different from the demons and gods believed in by the Beimang tribe, the gods believed in by many sects in the Western Regions are not the Taoist demons with physical bodies, but special existences that are truly born from the power of faith and the thoughts of the people.
Although Jiang Li had fought against the priests of the Pantheon, he had never encountered the real gods of the Western Regions.
During this trip to the Western Regions, it is inevitable that we will encounter these so-called gods. By sensing the aura and charm of Han and Shang states in advance, we can also be more prepared and have more methods for confronting the gods of the Western Regions in the future.
"It's strange, when did there be an extra person there? It seemed like it came suddenly. The last time I looked up, there was still nothing there!"
"Strange, there is indeed a figure. It looks very strange. I have never seen it before!"
Summer is approaching, and there are many Hanzhou people working by the salt-alkali lake to prepare for the drying of salt in the future.
Several civilians looked up and saw a tall figure wearing black armor with a ghostly face standing on the shore of the lake not far away. They were a little surprised and surprised, and they all looked up.
This place is far away from the territories of the countries in the Western Regions. It is mostly desert and very barren, and few people visit it during normal times.
Several small tribes stationed nearby all made a living by drying salt and making salt. They were familiar with each other, and when they saw strange figures appearing, they were all wary and vigilant.
However, before they could muster up the courage to come forward and ask, they saw the man by the lake shore gently raising his feet and disappearing without any sign of influence.
"Where is he!"
Surrounding the salt-alkali lake, apart from the lake, there is desert. A sparrow flying by is extremely eye-catching and can be seen hundreds of meters away.
The sharp-eyed young man looked into the distance and saw the figure of the man in black armor appearing faintly in the middle of the lake more than ten miles away. He flickered slightly and then disappeared again without any trace.
"The gods must be the gods!"
"Black Martial God, he must be a divine warrior under the command of the god!"
Men, women, old and young screamed in surprise, and they all knelt down at the edge of the lake, looking at the direction where Jiang Li disappeared, bowing three times and five times, excited.
The miracle of Black Martial God appears, this year will be a good harvest.
Jiang Li naturally didn't know that he was worshiped as a god by hundreds of Hanzhou people just by stopping for a moment at the edge of the lake.
He walked slowly and striding, ten miles a step, as vertical and horizontal as lightning, as if he could travel through time and space. In just a few sticks of incense, he had already crossed deserts, grasslands, mountains, and tidal flats, and appeared at the junction of Hanzhou and Shangzhou.
Jiang Li tried his best to avoid the Western Region countries and tribes along the way, and did not attract any special attention or tracking.
A hundred miles ahead is the territory of Yeshan Kingdom, and the north and south sides are the territories of Tuyuan and Dashi.
The main altar of the Western Region Temple Pantheon is also nearby, located in a mountain range in the northwest of Tuyuan Kingdom.
There are many large and small tribes and cities nearby, and the number of people coming and going is increasing day by day. From time to time, people from the Western Regions ride camels from afar, and the sound of copper bells mingles with each other and floats over the land.
"Chasing the wind, come out!"
With a thought in Jiang Li's mind, there was a flash of light on his forehead, and the white horse Zhui Feng walked out of the Hongmeng secret realm and landed on the ground.
During this trip to the Western Regions, although Jiang Li traveled alone, he did not go alone. Yan Xiyao, Liuyun, Zhui Feng and other exotic beasts, ten flying zombies, and a thousand lynx heavy riders were all taken into the Hongmeng Secret Realm by him. Inside, follow in secret.
In terms of strength alone, Yeshan Country is only a small country in the Western Region, with a population of close to one million, weak national power, and relatively desolate land.
Although there are noble forces in the country who are ready to take advantage of the disappearance of the Lord of Yeshan to usurp the throne, Jiang Li can handle it by himself.
However, due to the special geographical location of Yeshan, it is located at the junction of Tuyuan and Dashi, and is also very close to the Pantheon.
Therefore, the fight for the position of the leader of Yeshan Kingdom will inevitably have the shadow of Tuyuan and Dashi.
Before Jiang Li set out, he asked Fu Di, the mercenary leader, in detail about everything about Yeshan.
Before Ye Haisha took over as the leader of the Yeshan Kingdom, the Yeshan Kingdom had actually always been a vassal of Dashi, and every successive king also had the secret support of Dashi.
The Tuyuan Kingdom and the Pantheon Temple wanted to intervene in the battle for the master of the Yeshan Kingdom more than once, but they were unable to do so due to the interference of the Dashi Temple and the Sun and Moon Temple.
But when Ye Haisha became the leader of the country, the situation changed.
Although Ye Haisha was not the biological son of the previous king, and his origin was mysterious, he unexpectedly won the support of Gui Che and Ju Lu, the six major kingdoms in the Western Region.
This made the Yeshan Kingdom an independent country from Tuyuan and Dashi.
Due to the weak balance between the countries and temples in the Western Region, Yeshan Kingdom has been in a state of peace and independence in recent decades.
Now that the leader of Yeshan Kingdom is missing, Tu Yuan and Dashi will definitely not ignore it.
When Jiang Li comes to Yeshan this time, he is likely to conflict with the forces of the two countries, so he brings more manpower just in case of emergencies.
His time is limited and this trip must be completed quickly.
"咴"
Zhui Feng landed on the ground, his whole body covered in hundred-refined heavy armor. The armor was also as black as ink. Covered in heavy armor, his tall and muscular body looked like a demon horse from the mythical era.
Moreover, the majestic blood energy, which is extremely close to that of a martial saint, steams up from the horse's body, supporting a cloud in the sky.
"Controller your blood energy, are you afraid that others won't know that you are about to break through to the realm of the Martial Saint!"
Jiang Li got on his horse and knocked Zhui Feng's head armor heavily.
After this big horse was fused with the Yankui blood crystal and gained some blessings in the secret realm of the Kui clan's ancestral court, its physique was growing every moment.
If it hadn't been for the fact that its spiritual intelligence was still limited, its martial arts attainments were shallow, and it was unable to condense its own fist spirit, it would have broken through and become a saint long ago.
His current physique alone is not much weaker than that of an ordinary martial saint, not to mention that he also has an unparalleled divine weapon called Yue Po.
"咴"
Zhui Feng was knocked dizzy and snorted with some dissatisfaction, but he still obediently collected the blood and energy around his body and jogged away in the direction of Yeshan Kingdom with Jiang Li on his back.
As Jiang Li and Zhui Feng got closer and closer to the border of Yeshan Country, the pedestrians they met along the way became more and more dense.
Many citizens of the Yeshan Kingdom dressed in ordinary clothes, dragging their families, driving horse-drawn carriages and oxcarts, loaded with all their belongings, walked out of the border pass of the Yeshan Kingdom in a panic, forming a long queue that could not be seen to the edge at a glance.
Zhui Feng had already gathered his energy and blood, and controlled his speed within the limit of an ordinary war horse, but the man and the horse wearing heavy armor still attracted the attention of many people.
Seeing them rushing towards them, many people hurriedly pulled their horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts to get out of the way.
The eyes that looked at Jiang Li were full of timidity and awe.
"Why are you leaving Yeshan Country?"
Jiang Li slowed down his horse and asked loudly in the common language of the Western Regions.
"Sir, it's not that we want to leave, but the king of the country is missing, the nobles are about to start a fight, and armies from all walks of life are approaching the capital. Once they take action, it will be us civilians who will suffer!"
"If we had no other way out, why would we leave our homeland? I just hope that the fight between the noble gentlemen can end as soon as possible!"
Hearing Jiang Li's question, the nearby Yeshan subjects quickly replied cautiously.
"Already captured the capital?"
Jiang Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Once the war breaks out and all parties in the Yeshan Kingdom fight, their military strength will inevitably be severely reduced.
What he wants is a complete Yeshan country, not a devastated ruins.
"Listen to my will, everyone will stop migrating immediately and return to their original places!"
Jiang Li reined in his horse and shouted, his voice stirring and shocking for dozens of miles. He took off the ghost mask on his face, revealing the face of a majestic and handsome young man.
"King, king!"
When the Yeshan subjects on the official road saw Jiang Li's appearance from a distance, they were all stunned, and immediately let out excited shouts of joy and excitement, extremely excited.
The king, who had been missing for more than half a year, finally returned.
"All the people of Yeshan listen to your orders. This king has returned from his wanderings. I will surrender the rebellion in the capital and suppress them all. You spread the news and call all the people who have left Yeshan to return. I, Yehai, As long as the sand is there, no one can shake the foundation of Yeshan Kingdom!"
Jiang Li shouted an order, and the white horse chased the wind and neighed, then swooped out and ran towards the capital at great speed, and soon arrived at the entry pass.
"Who is this? Why don't you get off your horse quickly and accept the interrogation!"
Hundreds of Yeshan soldiers will be stationed near the entry pass.
They had already heard Jiang Li's shouts, but the originally open city gate was slowly closed as the winch turned.
As a general and soldier of Yeshan, he turned a blind eye to the people fleeing Yeshan, but he wanted to stop a person and horse who might be the leader of Yeshan?
This move is really abnormal. The only possibility is that these generals and soldiers have been bribed.
"The brave maniac who dares to break into the pass of our Yeshan Kingdom alone deserves death!"
On the city wall, hundreds of soldiers raised their crossbows at the same time. The sharp arrows all locked onto the man and horse that were galloping towards them. They pulled the triggers at the same time, and thousands of arrows immediately shot out like a waterfall.
"Humph, all traitors to the Lord should die!"
Jiang Li raised his head, looked at the rain of arrows coming towards him, and just smiled coldly.
How could a mere ten-meter-high pass guarded by hundreds of low-level warriors pose any threat to him.
But standing among the hundreds of soldiers at the pass, a brown-haired old man wearing a Western Region robe caught his attention.
This man's eyes are as sharp as an eagle, his aura is as dignified as a mountain, and his energy is like wolf smoke, rising straight into the sky, but he is a powerful warrior who has stepped into the holy ranks.
But it's not enough.
"Ye Haisha, you are gone, you shouldn't come back!"
The brown-haired old man's eyes were like swords, and he stared at Jiang Li fiercely. His voice was full of threats: "You have controlled Yeshan for decades and enjoyed the wealth and wealth in the world. It is enough. If you leave like this, you can still save your life. As for yours?" Yeshan Kingdom, I, Tuyuan, are determined to win it!"
"A mere junior martial saint dares to show off his power in front of me!"
Jiang Li sat on the horse. Facing the threat of the brown-haired Martial Saint, Jiang Li smiled indifferently. He clenched his right fist and did not explode with any force. He just punched in the air and punched far away.
Just hearing the sound of air surging, the Ten Meter Pass located a hundred meters away from Jiang Li, together with hundreds of nearby soldiers, generals, and brown-haired martial saints, were all smashed like bubbles by Jiang Li's punch. Turn into ashes.
After being promoted to the fatal realm, Jiang Li's physical body strengthened again, and he was now approaching the level of a human immortal.
Even human immortals can fight, how can a small pass stop his pace.
The white horse chased the wind without stopping, rushing directly into the fly ash formed by the pass, sweeping up a space and passing through it.
Only a few of the thousands of people in Yeshan were left dumbfounded and stunned.
…
"Princess, the army of those nobles has completely surrounded the capital. The Lord of Yeshan has been missing for a long time. It is said that the soul lamp he left in the Jingyuan Sect has been extinguished. I am afraid that he is already in danger!"
In the back garden of the Royal Court of Yeshan, a Hu girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, hurried in and urged the beautiful woman who was sitting in the pavilion and looking at the lake in a trance: "You and me Although the Princess of Yeshan is named husband and wife, they are not actually married, so they are not considered the true Princess of Yeshan.
"At this moment, there is civil strife in the country. We should leave early and return to Gui Che Country. You are Princess Gui Che. Those Yeshan nobles will never dare to stop us!"
