Tai Chi Palace.
Li Dao
Coupled with the weird life-saving method, this kind of strength is no longer weaker than the evil Buddha Maha.
From the information recorded in Hidden Dragon, it can be seen that Maha was the Turkic state advisor at that time, and one person was subordinate to ten thousand people. Even the high priest had to obey the orders.
In just five or six years, the high priest's progress has been astonishing...
"Taichong, what state are you in now?"
Li Shimin's eyes were bright and he asked, "Is it possible that you have become an immortal?"
Li Chunfeng also looked at Li Daoxuan very curiously.
In the past five years, most of the cultivation resources of the Tang Dynasty have been sent to Xuandu Small Courtyard, including ores rich in the energy of the five elements, inner elixirs handed over by bad people after killing demons, as well as various exotic flowers and plants, Hundred-year-old medicinal materials...
The resources consumed by a national master in seclusion for five years are almost as much as a large sect would use for decades.
As the Heavenly Supervisor of the Qin Dynasty, Taishi Ling was responsible for monitoring the astronomical phenomena. He often saw purple air rising in the imperial capital, and it became more and more intense, as if it was a sign of enlightenment in ancient scriptures.
In the expectant gazes of the two people, Li Daoxuan shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I have not become an immortal yet."
Inspired by the old Heavenly Master, Li Daoxuan specialized in the practice of the Great Five Elements Escape Technique and the Movement of Stars and Changes of Fighting in the past five years. Although his own cultivation has improved a lot, he is still far away from becoming an immortal.
Two years ago, he had cultivated the "Huangting Ancient Sutra" to the third level, awakening the "God of Interior Scenery" in 18,000 places, and his cultivation level had also increased, reaching the middle stage of Yangshen.
In the past two years, he has been practicing diligently, and the third level of "Huang Ting Ancient Sutra" has become perfect. When he reaches the fourth level, he will be able to break through to the late Yangshen stage and be at the same level as the old Tianshi.
According to Li Daoxuan's estimation, if you want to become an immortal, you must cultivate to the fifth level!
He once wrote a letter to ask his master about this. The old master said that the fifth level of "Huang Ting Ancient Sutra" was a huge watershed, and he had not been able to cross it after decades of cultivation.
"Thousands of miles apart, if you kill a demon with one arrow, isn't this an immortal?"
Li Shimin was a little hard to understand. If this was not an immortal, how powerful would a real immortal be?
Li Daoxuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, magical powers are magical powers, and cultivation is cultivation. The two are not exactly the same."
Most of the time, the stronger the cultivation level, the more powerful the magical power, but there are occasional exceptions.
For example, Sun Wukong is obviously more powerful than his cultivation, and there is also the Sword Immortal, who is also unparalleled in fighting. However, Lu Dongbin, the leader of the Sword Immortals, is only one of the Eight Immortals, ranking in the middle of the heaven.
The old Heavenly Master is also of this type. Although he is only a Yang God, if he shows his true character, he may not be able to kill even a human immortal.
"Hahaha, I don't understand what you are talking about, but I know that the stronger you are, Tai Chong, the more confident I, Datang, will be!"
Li Shimin paced back and forth, looking at the map of Kanyu on the wall and looking at the rivers and mountains of Jiuzhou, with a turbulence in his eyes.
"But the flying generals of Dragon City are here, and I don't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains."
"Taichong, your poem is very good, but I think it's not good enough. Do you know what's wrong with it?"
"Please give me some advice, Your Majesty."
Li Shimin looked at the Yinshan Mountains on the map and said: "In the past five years, Turkic monks have sneaked into our territory of the Tang Dynasty many times, burned, killed, looted, and kidnapped countless people. A rough estimate is that there are thousands!"
"There are still pharmacists guarding the Yinshan Mountains and restraining the iron hooves of the Turkic army. Otherwise, every autumn harvest, both Guan Nei and Hedong will be filled with smoke and dust. Thousands of families will grieve together, and even the newly born babies will not be spared! "
Li Shimin's voice was sad and he clenched his fists.
Li Daoxuan somewhat understood what he meant, and said: "Your Majesty...does he want to take the initiative to destroy the Turks?"
Li Shimin suddenly raised his eyes, and the dragon energy in the Tai Chi Palace suddenly boiled, making a dragon roar.
"Yes, we have all the flying generals in the Dragon City of the Tang Dynasty. If that's the case, why do we have to defend it?"
"The one who should cross the Yinshan Mountains is not the Hu horse, but my Tang Dynasty's Jiujiu cavalry!"
He pulled out the Emperor's Sword from his waist and slammed it on the Yinshan Mountain in Kanyu Map. The light of the sword illuminated those heroic eyes, and there seemed to be blood and fire burning in them.
"The enemy can go, so can I!"
"Blood revenge can only be repaid with blood!"
Li Daoxuan stared at the emperor who was known as Tang Taizong by later generations. Unknowingly, the two had known each other for six years. His figure was a little out of shape, but the sharpness in his eyes had never dissipated.
From the humiliating Wei River Alliance to five years of hard work, caring for the people, and recuperation, the emperor's sword has been sharpened.
Why did the Tang Dynasty endure the Turkic intrusion?
Why should the food that the people of the Tang Dynasty worked so hard to grow have to be taken away by the Turks?
Why should the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty be galloped by the war horses of the Turks?
When he dreams back at midnight, Li Shimin always thinks of the people who were kidnapped by the Turks. Are they alive or dead?
If you were alive, what kind of humiliation would you suffer? If they died, would anyone bury their bones?
"Taichong, since you destroyed Moro, I have been concerned about this matter all the time, working hard and sleeping day and night, without slacking off at all. Today's Tang Dynasty is no longer the weak state it used to be!"
"I have 140,000 infantry, 30,000 cavalry, 4,000 chariots, and countless baggage. The flags can cover the sun and the moon when they are spread out. There are also famous generals such as Li Jing, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Yuchi Gong, and Qin Qiong. How can we not defeat the enemy?" Mobei, can’t we defeat the Turks?”
As the emperor of Ma Ma, Li Shimin knew very well that in disputes between the two countries, swords were more effective than negotiation.
If you want to prevent an enemy from offending, the best way is to make that enemy disappear.
Only by turning from defense to attack, with horses trampling on the yellow sand, and pointing the sword at Mobei like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did, and killing him no matter how far away, can he kill all the nations and kowtow, and the world respects the Tang Dynasty!
"Your Majesty is as ambitious as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the past. If you want to raise troops to conquer the country, I am willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses."
Li Daoxuan bowed and saluted, his voice was gentle and calm, but Li Shimin was greatly inspired, and a big stone finally fell from his heart.
What he was most worried about was that Taichong would object.
After all, Taichong wants to use the power of the Tang Dynasty to practice cultivation. Now that he has not yet become an immortal, he has to participate in battles and fight with others, so he may be reluctant.
Li Shimin could be arbitrary, but he could not ignore Li Daoxuan's opinions.
Now that he heard that Li Daoxuan also agreed with his idea of sending troops, Long Yan was so happy that he felt like drinking nectar, and felt that the hot summer seemed to have become cooler.
"When two soldiers meet, each relies on his own ability. These poor men will not interfere, but if the Turkic monks dare to appear on the battlefield, call the wind and rain, and destroy our Tang Dynasty..."
Li Dao
Li Shimin laughed when he heard this and said, "With Taichong's words, I have nothing to worry about!"
When two armies are fighting, ordinary monks will not intervene. Firstly, the strong killing spirit in the army will affect the power of Taoism. Secondly, if too many mortals are killed, it is easy to be plagued by evil and the cause and effect will be too great.
But it doesn't matter if the other party sends monks.
Don’t you see, when King Wu attacked Zhou, the gods went crazy...
"By the way, Your Majesty can also issue a recruitment order to summon monks from all over the world to Yinshan Mountain. In addition to pursuing immortality and immortality, our Taoist monks also protect our family and country. I believe there will be many capable people and strangers who will respond."
Li Shimin nodded and smiled: "This method is very wonderful, but it must be issued in your name. After all, in Taoism, your name is much louder than mine."
Li Daoxuan of Longhu Mountain has become a legend in the Taoist sect. He broke through to the Yangshen realm at the age of twenty, and his record is even more shocking. When word spreads about the arrow from Yinshan, I don’t know how many people will be shocked.
Li Daoxuan naturally had no objection. If Datang could win this battle, he would naturally get more benefits as a national advisor.
"Your Majesty, when are you going to send troops?"
"After the harvest."
Li Shimin pointed to Luoyang on the map and said: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first. Over the years, I have stored a lot of food in the Luokou and Hanjia warehouses, but it was used up because of the snowstorm in Henan Road last year." A lot has been harvested. In order to ensure safety, this year’s harvest must not be lost!”
"Then congratulations to Your Majesty. I heard that the weather will be good this year and it will be a prosperous year!"
After Li Daoxuan said this, he saw that Li Shimin frowned and did not respond.
Li Chunfeng sighed softly and stepped forward and said: "The Imperial Master is unaware of something. His Majesty is worried about this matter. It is true that the harvest in various places has been good this year, but the food in Dengzhou has not yet been transported to the Luoyang granary."
Dengzhou is Shandong, which is an important grain-producing area in the Tang Dynasty. Almost one-third of the country's grain is in Dengzhou.
Luoyang is the world's granary and is located on an important land and water transportation route. According to past rules, grain from most places in the country has to be transported to Luoyang for ready use.
Therefore, the delay in the arrival of food from Dengzhou is very unusual.
"There has been no news about Xia Qingfeng, the governor of Dengzhou. Your Majesty sent some bad guys to check, but the result was nothing. Even those bad guys disappeared!"
Li Daoxuan's eyes moved and he asked: "Are there any demons in Dengzhou area?"
Bad people all have their own cultivation and magical weapons. Unless they encounter powerful demons, they can protect themselves more than enough.
Li Chunfeng shook his head and said: "According to the observations of Zhoutian Xingdou Formation, there are no demons appearing in Dengzhou area, but this is also the weirdest place."
He continued: "Ten days ago, His Majesty sent Hidden Dragon's Mother of Lightning to Dengzhou. Seven days ago, Mother of Lightning sent a letter back using the paper crane technique."
Li Chunfeng took out a piece of yellow paper from his sleeve and handed it over.
Li Daoxuan took it and looked at it, his eyebrows raised slightly.
"There is a locust plague in Dengzhou. It is suspected to be a natural disaster. Xia Qingfeng may have a problem. I am going to check on him."
The handwriting is neat and concise.
I pondered the words "suspected not a natural disaster" quite patiently. If it was not a natural disaster, it meant it was a man-made disaster. Who could create a locust plague?
As the governor of a state, why didn't Xia Qingfeng report such a serious matter as the locust plague?
Where did those bad people who disappeared go?
At this time, Li Chunfeng took out another piece of yellow paper and handed it over.
"This is the last news sent back by Mother Dian five days ago."
Li Daoxuan opened it and his eyes narrowed.
This time the handwriting became extremely sloppy and was written with blood from the fingers.
"Xia Qingfeng colluded with demons in an attempt to——"
The handwriting stopped abruptly and was not finished. It can be seen that the situation at that time was so critical that Dianmu ended her writing in a hurry because she knew that if she continued writing, she might not be able to send the first few words back to the court.
"After this letter, there was no news from Mother Dian. I sent letters to her three times, but they all fell into the sea and there was no news."
Li Chunfeng's voice was solemn and he said: "There must be a big problem in Dengzhou. Mother Dian said that Xia Qingfeng was colluding with demons, but the problem is that no trace of demons was found in Dengzhou in the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation."
"In addition, the secret of heaven is even more chaotic and difficult to understand. It seems that someone has deliberately cast a spell to block it."
"Of course, the most important thing now is the safety of Dian Mu and others, as well as Dengzhou's autumn harvest this year!"
Li Daoxuan frowned slightly.
You must know that the current Dian Mu is no longer the little girl she was five years ago. She is one of the four pillars of Zhelong's kingdom, and she has profound attainments in thunder magic.
When it comes to fighting skills, there are few opponents under Yangshen.
However, something happened to her.
"Taichong, to be honest, if you don't come out today, I will send everyone else in the Hidden Dragon to Dengzhou."
Li Shimin's expression was a bit worried.
If there is a problem with the food supply in Dengzhou, the raising of troops to attack the Turks will have to be postponed, and changes will occur if it is too late.
The bad guys and the Hidden Dragon were dispatched, but they all disappeared. Li Shimin had no one available, and the only one who could ask for help was Li Daoxuan.
From Chang'an to Luoyang, whenever Li Daoxuan takes action, no matter how critical the situation is or how powerful the enemy is, he can be invincible.
"In this case, I'll go to Dengzhou and have a try."
…
After leaving the Manlu Palace, Li Daoxuan did not leave directly, but walked silently in the Imperial Garden alone.
He closed his eyes and read the rewards from "The Book of Demons."
Although he didn't kill two birds with one stone, if he killed a Yang Shen realm turtle demon, the Book of Heaven should reward him with some good things.
In the past five years, he had practiced quietly and almost never made a move. He really missed the light of the Book of Heaven.
"In August of the seventh year of Zhenguan, I killed the turtle demon in the early stage of Yang God in Yinshan Mountain and received a reward..."
While Li Daoxuan closed his eyes and watched "The Heavenly Book of Demons", the flowers in the imperial garden swayed slightly, and wafts of floral fragrance floated out, which was intoxicating.
A pair of eyes appeared on the willow trees on both sides, and then turned into a green light and flew into another willow tree, getting closer and closer to Li Daoxuan.
After a while, a hazy face appeared on the willow tree behind Li Daoxuan.
A pair of transparent hands stretched out from the tree and quietly grabbed Li Daoxuan's neck...
Seeing that he was about to succeed, the face seemed to show joy, and then he pounced hard and grabbed Li Daoxuan.
Plop!
The figure actually jumped into the air, staggering and almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, the flowers automatically gathered around and held it up.
The transparency faded away, and a figure appeared among the flowers. He was dressed in neon clothes and wore a lotus-shaped golden robe on his head. His skin was as white as snow, his eyes were like spots of ink, and his long black hair was scattered among the flowers, like a freehand ink painting.
At the age of fourteen or fifteen, he already has a noble and elegant temperament, which is bright and yet agile.
"Master, pull me up quickly~"
The girl stretched out her hand to the master, her snow-white skin like a freshly peeled egg.
Li Daoxuan didn't like her, so he hit her on the head.
"Changle, if you don't practice well, how dare you come to tease me?"
…
I have some things to deal with after returning to my hometown, and I’m just typing them up now. Sorry to keep everyone waiting~
