"Haha, God helps me, God helps me... It's so good. So good!!!" Emperor Xiang Guang of the Chu Dynasty held the secret letter in his hand and couldn't control himself with excitement. The man with a hooked nose on the side also complimented. : "This is God's plan to destroy the Qin family. After all, the emperor is the destined emperor."
Xiang Guang was in high spirits at this moment.
"Qin De, Qin De, you have been smart all your life, but you have fallen into my hands several times. In the end, your Qin family's hundreds of years of foundation will be ruined." If it were normal, Xiang Guang would not dare to start a war wantonly if he had the courage. , after all, the Qin family has a large army, and they have been practicing on the edge of the wilderness for many years. They are not comparable to the armies of the other three major families.
"Your Majesty, this time the King of Zhenbei and Qin De met secretly. Qin De is going to send an army of 300,000 people across the territory of King Zhenbei to attack us. With an army of 300,000 people, do you think that when King Zhenbei changes sides, will he? Will they be defeated by Qin De's army instead? Qin De's army is still very strong." The hook-nosed man whispered.
That secret letter was sent by someone sent by Shangguan Hong, and it talked about the recent meeting between Qin De and him and the content of the meeting.
Xiang Guang thought for a while and then smiled and said: "Don't worry, the Shangguan family has a close relationship with my Xiang family, and Qin De's army has reached the jurisdiction of King Zhenbei, so he can't be left alone. I will send me again then. The Xiang family's army is attacking Shangguan's family from both inside and outside. Huh, once the three hundred thousand army is wiped out, the Qin family will lose half of its troops. By the way, how did you do to win over the Blackwater bandits? "
The hook-nosed man hurriedly said: "Report to your Majesty, the Blackwater Bandits heard that the Emperor agreed to their request, and even made a blood alliance with his subordinates. Don't worry, Your Majesty, once they form a blood alliance, these gangsters will value it. Very."
Xiang Guang suddenly smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, with the Blackwater Mountain Bandits in the Qin family's territory, the 200,000 Qin family's army will not be able to move, otherwise his lair will be in chaos. Even if he recruits 200,000 more troops, he can use them We only have 600,000 soldiers. Humph, if the Shangguan family controls another 300,000 in the territory, what use will the Fierce Tiger Army have? I wonder what the Qin family will use to fight me?"
"Your Majesty is wise." The hook-nosed man bowed.
Xiang Guang nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good. You did a good job in wooing the Blackwater Bandit this time. I will reward you if you have merit. I heard that you like Yan Xizhi's paintings. This 'Mother and Child Picture' is Here it is for you." As he spoke, Xiang Guang took the scroll from the table and handed it directly to the hook-nosed man.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." The hook-nosed man immediately took the painting.
"Okay, let's go." Xiang Guang said with a wave of his sleeve. Xiang Guang was in a particularly good mood at this moment. When he saw the hook-nosed man leaving, Xiang Guang said again, "By the way, this picture of mother and child, if you have nothing to do, you should take a closer look. Look, you can understand the essence of Yan Xi’s master painting.”
"Yes!" the hook-nosed man said immediately, and then walked out of the imperial study.
On the way home, the hook-nosed man sneered in his heart: "Mother and child picture? This is too cruel." What the hook-nosed man valued most was his wife and children, so Xiang Guang gave him this He naturally understood the meaning of the picture of mother and child.
…
Zhao Yunxing looked at the military map on the wall with a cold expression.
"General." A young man bowed behind Zhao Yunxing.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Yunxing said calmly.
The young man said: "General, the prince ordered us to enter the two counties in the northern region together with another army. My subordinates think there is something wrong."
"What's wrong?" There was a smile on Zhao Yunxing's lips, but he still did not turn around.
The young man immediately straightened up and said: "Your Majesty has negotiated with the Shangguan family, and then he allowed us to enter the Shangguan family and use the road to attack the Xiang family. But is the Shangguan family really facing us? If the Shangguan family pretends to be facing us, in fact it is If it's towards the Xiang family, then things will be bad. After all, the two counties in the Northern Territory are the territory of the Shangguan family."
"Do you think the prince can't even think of this?" Zhao Yunxing asked.
The young man immediately said: "The prince will naturally think of this, but the Mu family of the three counties in the southern region are extremely loyal to the Xiang family. When the two families merge into one, they account for more than half of the Chu Dynasty's military strength. The prince has no choice but to rely on the Zhenbei King , My subordinates think about it, although the prince has thought of this, he is forced by the situation and can only cooperate with the Shangguan family. But once there is a war, if the Shangguan family switches sides before the battle, then we will be in misery."
"Yan Yun, the prince's perspective is different from yours. The prince overlooks the overall situation. Everything is under the control of the prince. If the prince wants to do something, how can such a trivial matter be difficult for the prince? After more than two months, you will naturally understand everything. ." Zhao Yunxing turned around and said with a smile.
A relaxed smile suddenly appeared on the young man's face: "Since the prince has the pearl of wisdom in his hands, my subordinates can rest assured."
"Okay, Yan Yun, you go back first." Zhao Yunxing said with a smile.
"Yes!" The young man turned and left, but stopped when he reached the door. He turned back to look at Zhao Yunxing and whispered: "Father, it is already midnight now. Father should go to bed early. The war is about to happen and father's health is in critical condition."
With that said, the young man left.
After hearing this, Zhao Yunxing couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
Although Zhao Yunxing's son Zhao Yanyun is also in the army, Zhao Yunxing has a destiny. In the army, the relationship between father and son is just superior and subordinate, so Zhao Yanyun usually calls General Zhao Yunxing.
The war is about to begin, the Qin family and the Xiang family secretly come and go, and the spies and intelligence personnel are also fully active.
Either secretly bribe some important personnel with large sums of money, frame the opponent's general, or assassinate the opponent's important personnel. They were very familiar with counterintuitive schemes and honey traps. As the Qin family mobilized their troops on the prehistoric border, the entire Chu Dynasty was shrouded in a layer of depression.
The Qin family wooed the Blackwater Mountain Bandits and gave them heavy gifts, but the Blackwater Mountain Bandits actually accepted the heavy gifts. But the Xiang family was not angry at all. Moreover, the number one killer group 'Skynet' also announced that it would not accept any missions related to the Chu Dynasty for the time being.
In short, almost everyone feels the depression of the impending storm. Maybe Qin Yu, who was practicing quietly in the ancient world, couldn't feel that kind of atmosphere.

Next to Leishan House, on the clear water lake.
Qin Yu sat cross-legged, sitting on the water without sinking. Purple air currents surrounded Qin Yu's body. These purple air currents were the purple true energy in Qin Yu's body. After several months of practice, Qin Yu's purple innate true energy was like mercury. Generally, almost liquefied.
The powerful force in the body is rolling. Qin Yu can completely feel the surging muscle energy in the muscles of the whole body, even down to the cells. The purple infuriating energy flows everywhere, constantly refining the muscles and bones.
Suddenly the wind started to blow, causing ripples on the lake surface. The water undulated slightly. Qin Yu sat cross-legged on the lake surface, but he was like a duckweed following the ups and downs of the lake water.
"Huh~~"
The strong wind blew up, and the lake made huge waves. Each wave was more than ten meters long. The entire lake seemed to be lifted up by a giant. No matter how powerful Qin Yu was, he couldn't feel as at ease as before. Immediately when his feet touched the surface of the lake, he ran away. Towards the lake, at the same time helplessly staring at the instigator, Xiao Hei.
"Xiao Hei, I know your wings can stir up strong winds, but don't play tricks on me, okay?" Qin Yu stared at Xiao Hei who was flapping his wings and said helplessly.
Xiao Hei folded his wings, and the lake immediately calmed down, forming a golden elixir. Xiao Hei, who had practiced several techniques inherited from his memory, now became more aloof and fierce, and Qin Yu was now far from Xiao Hei's opponent.
"Brother, I'm just training your alertness. I'm doing it for your own good. Do you blame me for this?" Xiao Hei's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind.
Qin Yu said jokingly: "Okay, now you are better than me in surviving the catastrophe. I won't fight with you. I will also have to survive the tribulation tomorrow night. Wait until I survive the tribulation and practice "Star Transformation" , I will let you know how powerful I am."
""Star Transformation"? Brother, I have a lot of magical skills that I have practiced, and they are no worse than your "Star Transformation"." Xiao Hei proudly flapped his wings. After forming the golden elixir, Xiao Hei has practiced some secret techniques in the past two months. His own strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is very confident at the moment.
Qin Yu smiled: "When the time comes, won't we know who is better?"
During these days, Qin Yu carefully read many books about cultivation. Of course, he read "Star Transformation" from beginning to end. Not only did he remember some of the formulas and cultivation methods in his mind, but he also remembered the training methods of Lei Wei when he was practicing or overcoming the tribulation. Some insights are also kept in my mind.
Qin Yu is also increasingly confident about the upcoming forty-nine heavenly tribulations.
On the second day, Qin Yu had been quietly sitting cross-legged on the grass beside the clear water lake, waiting for the arrival of the catastrophe. On this day, Xiao Hei rarely disturbed Qin Yu, but practiced peacefully aside. The last time Qin Yu Yu protects him, and this time he will protect Qin Yu.
The sun sets in the west, and the entire wilderness is illuminated red.
A strong wind rose out of thin air, and the giant trees in the surrounding mountains and forests swayed crazily. Leaves fell everywhere, and the sound of "clicking" branches from the giant trees was heard one after another. The sky darkened instantly. The huge change in the weather made Qin Yu and Xiao Hei stop. To practice.
"Haha, the catastrophe is finally coming. Xiao Hei, watch out for me this time. If any monsters come, kill them all." Qin Yu shouted.
Xiao Hei flapped his wings and said through his spiritual sense: "Don't worry, brother, my territory is within a few hundred miles. No monster dares to disturb it. If any monster comes, I will destroy its clan." For a period of time, hundreds of miles around had indeed become Xiao Hei's territory.
The sky turned dark red, giving people a sense of depression.
A huge vortex appeared in the center of the sky, and electric snakes appeared in the dark red sky. Each electric snake was absorbed by the vortex. After just a moment, the vortex stopped rotating and turned into a huge purple calamity cloud.
Dark red sky, purple calamity clouds, flashing electric snakes. Everything indicates the coming of disaster.
Qin Yu stood quietly, motionless. Xiao Hei spread his spiritual consciousness and paid attention to everything around him. No matter what, he would never allow any monsters to come near and disturb him.
A master of innate external skills has practiced to the extreme, how strong is the Heavenly Tribulation? It should be noted that different people generally have different powers of heavenly tribulations. Qin Yu's strength is much stronger than that of ordinary innate Dzogchen masters. So to what extent does the power of the four nine heavenly tribulations reach?
"The first thunder is the weakest and the easiest." Qin Yu looked up at Jie Yun with a smile on his face.
He clearly remembered some of Lei Wei's descriptions of overcoming the tribulation in "The Transformation of the Stars", and even proposed some methods to overcome the tribulation. Qin Yu decided to use one of the very exaggerated methods to overcome the tribulation when facing the first thunder. .
Calamity clouds rolled in, low thunder sounded one after another, and the pressure directly covered the bottom.
"boom!"
A purple thunderbolt fell directly from the sky at high speed, striking Qin Yu head-on with fury. However, Qin Yu looked up at the purple thunderbolt, unable to move, but there was a trace of madness in his eyes. Purple thunder and lightning hit Qin Yu directly.
Qin Yu's body was completely wrapped and penetrated by purple lightning.
"Haha, it's great, it's great, it's great!"
Qin Yu didn't have any defense and used his body to resist completely. He has cultivated his innate external skills to the current level. If he can't even withstand the first thunder, then his training in innate external skills will be in vain. It was mentioned in "Star Transformation", borrowed from Tempering the body with the power of thunder is very beneficial to improving strength. Of course, the power of this thunder cannot be too strong, Qin Yu's body cannot bear it if it is too strong.
The muscles and bones all over the body crackled for a while, thunder and lightning shuttled inside the muscle cells, and a lot of lightning energy was completely swallowed up. The already extremely strong muscles suddenly underwent some changes, and the muscles became even stronger.
"It's cool, it's really cool, Xiao Hei, how about my method of resisting the first thunder?" Qin Yu was still joking with Xiao Hei beside him.
Xiao Hei didn't speak, his spiritual consciousness paid full attention to his surroundings.
Qin Yu crossed the first sky thunder in this way, not only did he not consume the energy in his body, but also increased his muscle strength again, and his strength improved again. Every time other people go through a catastrophe, they have to consume strength, but Qin Yu increases his strength. Every time he comes and goes, there is a gap.
"Brother, be careful. The second thunder is much stronger than the first. The method just now cannot be used again." Xiao Hei reminded.
At this moment, the calamity clouds in the sky are constantly rolling, and it is obvious that the second sky thunder is brewing. The first sky thunder can be absorbed in this way, but the second sky thunder is more powerful, and Qin Yu does not dare to be as arrogant as before. , let the lightning strike.
"Don't worry, I know what's enough is enough." Qin Yu felt Xiao Hei's concern.
The thunder was rolling, and the pressure on the people below increased again. The second sky thunder was about to fall. Qin Yu immediately entered the state with all his heart and soul, preparing to resist the second sky thunder. Following a thunderous thunder, a purple dragon The calamity cloud suddenly jumped out and rushed directly towards Qin Yu below.
"bring it on."
A trace of excitement flashed in Qin Yu's eyes, and the energy in his body suddenly surged. His whole body suddenly glowed with purple light, like purple jade. The purple energy instantly covered the whole body, forming a body-protecting aura. Occasionally, there was even a trace of electric light on the body surface. surround.
