Suddenly, Mo Yan opened his eyes and said, "Let's go!"
Beside him, Hei Lian looked puzzled and asked, "Sir, what happened?"
Mo Yan said: "My clone has fallen. The operation may have failed. This stronghold may have been exposed. We need to leave here immediately."
Heilian looked shocked and said: "How is that possible!"
The True Demon Palace dispatched an ancestor who was at the peak of the Holy Emperor, and he still had imperial soldiers in his hands. How could it fail?
"Everything is possible, as long as we survive!"
After Mo Yan finished speaking, he quickly left with Hei Lian. He was worried that Ling Feng would catch up again based on the clone's soul energy.
However, he obviously thought too much. Ling Feng would not waste time without absolute certainty.
At this time, in the cave world of the True Demon Palace, the clone of the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor was practicing in the main hall. Suddenly, a black long knife came through the air and landed beside him.
The Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor took the Immortal Demonic Sword into his body and cultivated it. He immediately summoned an elder from the True Demon Palace and said, "Send someone to inform Haoyang that the Chaos Saint Emperor Ling Feng has an imperial-grade bell-shaped magic weapon on his body." The Imperial Dynasty and the seven supreme sects.”
His strength is now greatly reduced, and even with the imperial soldiers in hand, there is nothing he can do to Ling Feng. But if other sects are tempted and multiple factions join forces, Ling Feng will definitely be unable to defeat four hands with two fists.
"Yes, Patriarch!"
The elder of the True Demon Palace immediately understood the thoughts of the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor, responded, and left quickly.
…
The next day, with the spread of the True Demon Palace, the news that Ling Feng defeated the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor holding the imperial weapon and defeated the nine paths of the Demon Sect spread throughout the nine territories of the Divine Continent, and countless sects and families knew about it.
It suddenly aroused a lot of speculation, and most people thought it was impossible. After all, the emperor's soldiers were synonymous with invincibility in the main world. No one could beat them except the emperor. The reason why the eight supreme sects are so prestigious that no one dares to offend them is because they all worship the imperial soldiers left behind by the great emperor. What's more, the person holding the imperial weapon is the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor, the most powerful person at the peak of the Holy Emperor. Who can defeat him!
Of course, the Haoyang Emperor and the other seven supreme sects all know that this matter is probably true, because according to the plan discussed by their nine major forces, the Haoyang Emperor has shrunk its power and only sits in the Haoyang territory. The other eight supreme sects Each sect takes a territory. Nowadays, the other seven territories have fallen respectively into the Martial God Temple, Xuantian Immortal Sect, Chunyang Sword Sect, Split Heaven Sword Sect, Shenxiao Sect, Qinglian Sword Sect, and Huangtian Sect. The Jinyang Territory was originally supposed to be captured by the True Demon Palace, but at this time the Jinyang Territory was still in Ling Feng's hands. It was obvious that the True Demon Palace had failed.
At this time, in the Haoyang Imperial Capital, in a main hall, the nine powerful Saint Emperors of Tianyang, Xuanyang, Qingyang, Liyang, Jinyang, Qianyang, Kunyang, Yuanyang, and Leiyang gathered to discuss the big plan.
Tianyang Holy Emperor glanced at everyone and said: "You must have heard the news about the True Demon Palace! Tell us your opinions."
Liyang Holy Emperor said: "It is obvious that the True Demon Palace was defeated by the Chaos Holy Emperor. Its strength was greatly damaged and there was no hope of revenge. Therefore, it deliberately spread the news in the hope that we would fight head-on with the Chaos Holy Emperor and both sides would suffer. No matter what the outcome, they can Gain time to recover. I think it might be a good choice if we unite the major forces and take the opportunity to destroy the True Demon Palace."
At this time, Qingyang Holy Emperor shook his head and said: "Even if we can destroy the True Demon Palace, we still can't do anything about the Immortal Demon Sword. When it finds its successor, the Demon Sect can still recover quickly. At that time, we may have to face the Demon Sect's threat." Revenge! We will just wait and see what happens in this matter."
Tianyang Holy Emperor nodded, then looked at Jinyang Holy Emperor and said: "Lao Wu, you have fought with Ling Feng before, what do you know about his strength?"
Jinyang Holy Emperor said: "At the beginning, I only fought against his clone. I don't know what this person's cultivation level and magic power are, but his profound knowledge far surpasses mine. He may have taken a step towards the peak of Holy Emperor. He has understood part of the Golden Immortal Dao and is a powerful rival of the eldest brother."
Tianyang Holy Emperor laughed and said: "The battle between the emperors and the emperor is more interesting when we have such a powerful opponent."
At the same time, all the supreme sects also discussed the matter, but in the end no sect came forward. The reason is very simple. No one wants to be the one who takes the lead. We are all old foxes, no one can easily plot against anyone. The real battle will have to wait until the Starry Sky Ancient Road opens.
At this time, Ling Feng had also completely refined the magic power of the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor's soul, the essence of the demon body and the origin of the cave, and his cultivation had improved slightly. When his cultivation reached his level, every improvement required a huge amount of cultivation resources.
Immediately, Ling Feng refined the Heavenly Sword Demon Emperor's natal demon sword and integrated it into the Chaos Divine Sword, upgrading its grade to a top-notch level.
Then, Ling Feng took advantage of the fact that he defeated the True Demon Palace and the other nine demon sects, declared the formal independence of the Jinyang territory, established the Shenwu Dynasty, and ascended the throne three days later and proclaimed himself emperor.
The reason for doing this is to cut off the connection with the Haoyang Emperor and further gather the luck in the Jinyang territory, so as to avoid insufficient luck when opening the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.
Three days later, in the Jinyang Palace, Ling Feng formally offered sacrifices to heaven, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, named Emperor Wu, and ennobled the concubines and civil and military officials in the harem.
Canonize Mingyu as the queen and the master of the harem. Liu Xueyan, Song Yurou, Ren Yuyao, Tong Yan, Ye Xiuyun, Han Yue, etc. are all noble concubines, while Luluo and Qin Keqing are ordinary concubines.
Dean Hong was canonized as prime minister, True Lord Nu Tao was canonized as Taifu, Yan Wushuang was canonized as King of Northern Liang, Chu Lingyue was canonized as the chief arrester of the six sects, and was granted the title of Duke of the Kingdom. Ziying, Youfei, Jinfei, Qingzi, and Yanhong were respectively enthroned as commanders of the five battalions of soldiers and horses in the imperial city, with the rank of general of hussars. The six generals, including Shura and Heilong, were canonized as governors of Nanliang and other six prefectures, dividing the military power of those princes.
Originally, some talents from the Wu Dynasty and the Seven sects also had their own official positions and titles. These official positions and titles are blessed with luck, which can improve their understanding and cultivation speed, and will be of great help to their breakthroughs in cultivation.
The seven princes including Xiliang King Lin Tianao and the original officials at all levels also had their own rewards.
After this reward, the loyalty of all the officials increased, and Ling Feng also firmly held the military and financial power in his own hands.
With the concentration of power and the support of people's hearts, the luck of the Shenwu Dynasty stabilized. The dragon energy gathered in Ling Feng condensed into a purple-gold five-clawed divine dragon. This dragon energy was strong enough to suppress ordinary martial emperors.
However, according to Ling Feng's estimation, it will take some time to save enough to open the Nine Heavens Secret Realm.
Therefore, his next main task is not to practice, but to govern the country, appease the people, and gather luck.
At the same time, he must select talents from the Jinyang territory and continue to train his confidants. His current foundation is still too shallow compared to that of the Haoyang Emperor. In the future, if he becomes the Martial Emperor and rules the Divine Continent, he will also need a large number of confidants.
