Chapter 1309 Post-War Matters (4k)

The Battle of Chaoge came to an end.

But the world did not fall silent because of this.

······
Heaven and earth.

Daozu Hongjun and Niangniang Nuwa sat opposite each other. The battle situation on the chessboard in the middle was illusory and hazy. No one could know what was happening on the chessboard at that moment.

Taoist Hongjun said with a bad look: "Daoist Nuwa, please don't go too far."

Nuwa smiled and said, "How did I go too far?"

Daozu Hongjun’s expression became even uglier.

Daozu Hongjun threatened: "Do you really think I dare not do it?"

Nuwa said with a smile: "Of course you dare to make a move, but what can you do to me?"

Daozu Hongjun was silent.

Nuwa was fearless: "I really can't beat Tiandao Hongjun. Not only me, but even if all the cultivators in this world are added together, they are still no match for you.

but,

The Heavenly Dao Hongjun is without feelings, selfishness, or emotions. It is an extremely fair and ruthless order.

As long as I don't destroy the world, Tiandao Hongjun will not take action against me.

As for you, Taoist Hongjun, my cultivation level is only comparable to yours, so what can you do if you attack me?"

Taoist Hongjun: "You are destroying the world right now."

Nuwa smiled and said, "Are you talking about Yuanshi, Taishang, Tongtian, Zhunti, and Jieyin falling from their saintly positions?
This isn't destroying the world, it's destroying your rule."

Taoist Hongjun: “…”

Nuwa: "If you insist on not letting me go, we will just keep watching and see if they will perish."

･･･････
boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Many beings emitting terrifying powers appeared in the sky above an island. Their eyes could produce thunder, their mouths could spit fire, and their hands could perform all kinds of magic.

They attacked the island at the same time.

The terrible explosion shook the sea in all directions, and a huge black crack spread in the sky, affecting the sea farther away and spreading to the surrounding areas.

Earth, water, wind and fire are in chaos!

The five elements are reversed, creating a doomsday scene.

The isolated island remained motionless under the attacks of various extraordinary powers and remained intact no matter how they were attacked.

On this island is the Biyou Palace, the headquarters of Jiejiao.

Tongtian Sect Master said with a dark face: "What do you mean by this? You have brought me so much trouble."

Yuanshi Tianzun said: "It's not that we brought you danger, but we took the risk to come and tell you the news."

Master Tongtian: “…”

Taoist Taishang: "Junior Brother Tongtian, calm down!
Yuanshi and I were not very careful in the past, but you know the situation now. We should put aside our past grudges and work together to overcome this crisis."

Tongtian Sect Master snorted coldly: "If you say let it go, then what will I become?

What does it matter if so many of my disciples died or were injured? "

Yuanshi Tianzun said: "Tongtian, don't make a fuss. The five rabble you mentioned died, so what's the big deal?

What's the point of collecting this waste that I'm destined to kill the three corpses of?
The luck that their shallow foundation brings is not enough to offset the cause and effect they bring.

Why should we hurt our relationship for a bunch of ants? "

The Supreme Taoist: "We have now become the opportunity for all quasi-saints to become saints. We can only stick together, otherwise we will not be able to survive this crisis."

Tongtian's face looked extremely ugly, what a bullshit collaboration!

When the three of them were in the beginning of the chaos, he was responsible for everyone's safety, and he had maxed out his formation skills.
As long as he sets up the formation, it will be difficult for enemies of the same level to break through.

What's more, the formation of the Biyou Palace was the one set up by Tongtian when he was at the sage realm.

He doesn't need Yuanshi Tiandao's help at all.

Tongtian looked at Yuanshi's arrogant face and those harsh words, and really wanted to kick them out, letting those quasi-saints rush up like hungry wolves to tear them to pieces.

but,

Tongtian finally suppressed the impulse in his heart.

He could actually understand the actions of Yuanshi and Taishang.

The "Three Corpses Law" cut off all of Tai Shang's feelings and emotions, and also cut off Yuan Shi's kindness. It's not surprising that they could do these things.

··········
Mount Sumeru!
The situation of Jie Yin and Zhunti is also not optimistic.

At first, everyone was just besieging Yuanshi and the other three, but later they found that Tongtian’s formation was too powerful.

It is impossible to break through in a short time.

So a large group of people went to the Western world and began to attack Mount Sumeru.

Want to kill Jie Yin and Zhunti.

The two of them did not have a formation to protect them like Tongtian, so they could only rely on their own fighting power to intimidate all quasi-saints who were targeting them.

·············
Xiqi Royal City,

King Wu Jifa sat on the throne and sent off the last prince with a cold face.

"These damn guys are two-faced and really abominable."

"Your Majesty, calm down! We were originally a loose alliance, and it is because we are powerful that they were attracted to us.

Now that they know their current partner is leaving, they will naturally have some inappropriate thoughts. "Jiang Ziya comforted him.

King Wu Jifa returned to Xiqi with a million troops. They immediately clamored to go home, giving all kinds of reasons.

What? The weather is good today, suitable for going home.

The sow at home is about to give birth again...
One excuse after another that insulted Jifa's intelligence was presented to him, but he didn't need to pretend to be reasonable.

Then agree to their request.

after all,

A million-strong army with a divided mind could cause chaos in the heart of Xiqi and lead to the destruction of the country.

"Your Majesty! It's no big deal if such a loose alliance breaks up.

Next year we will regroup and fight against the tyrant King Zhou. These princes who only care about their own interests will surely come again.

After all, they plundered many towns along the way." Jiang Ziya said.

"Father! I understand the truth.

But even though I understood it, it was hard to suppress the anger in my heart." Ji Fa sighed.

"Your Majesty! This is how the princes are."

King Wu Jifa said: "The alliance is still too loose and unreliable. I decided to implement the teacher's method of annexation."

Jiang Ziya was surprised and asked, "What? Guiguzi's method of annexation?
Your Majesty, you can’t do that! If you rashly attack other princes, it will inevitably damage your prestige among the princes. It will be difficult for you to call on everyone to attack Chaoge again in the future.”

King Wu Jifa snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of them?

The kings of Xiqi worked hard to govern the country, and the foundation accumulated for Xiqi was passed down to me. Except for the fact that we could not defeat the Shang Dynasty, everything else was just a piece of shit to me.

For this expedition, I dispatched a million troops from Xiqi.

The other 400 princes have only men in total. What can they do if they have any objections to me?

The reason I tolerated them just now was because I was worried that they would take action in Xiqi.

Three hundred thousand troops mutinied in Xiqi. Even if I could put out the mutiny, I would suffer heavy losses.

Otherwise, I will kill them today."

Jiang Ziya continued to advise: "My king, this kind of attack is really inappropriate!

We started out without a name!"

King Wu Jifa was unhappy. He really wanted to depose Jiang Ziya, the prime minister who disagreed with him, but he didn't want to lose the power brought by Jiang Ziya, so he could only endure it.

"Humph! We are launching a war without any reason? Are we sure we can attack these 400 allies right now?

Aren't there still 400 princes who are watching?" Jiang Ziya suddenly understood after hearing this.

··················
Inside the nameless cave.

The light emitted by several crystal stones on the top of the cave illuminates the entire cave.

"The foundation of sanctification!"

Wang Ming already knew the situation outside through his clone.

Wang Ming thinks that one can become a saint by killing saints like Yuanshi.

Nine is the best!
This extreme is the limit of what the world can bear.

There are only nine saints that can be supported in this world.

Wang Ming guessed that when there were more than nine emperors, the world would face a test. Either the world would be destroyed or it would be promoted.

Therefore,
When there are nine saints, any other quasi-saints who want to become saints will be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao and will not be given the chance to become saints.

The saints of this world: Hongjun, Nuwa, Yuanshi, Taishang, Tongtian, Jieyin, Zhunti, Houtu.

There are eight statues in total.

The remaining one was left behind intentionally by Hongjun, and it would not give anyone a chance to succeed. It was like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey, which could only be looked at but not eaten.

The only way to become a saint is to kill the current saints and replace them.

after all,

If the total amount of resources has not changed, then the only thing that can change is the allocation of resources.

Golden sacred matter flowed in Wang Ming's pupils, and his sight penetrated through the barriers of space and saw Mount Xumi! The battle in Biyou Palace.

"The strength of a quasi-sage is indeed beyond my reach now. It seems that I need to find an opportunity to break through to the middle stage of Daluo Jinxian."

Wang Ming’s own strength is actually only at the early stage of Daluo Jinxian.

"Journey to the West World" relied on the power of merit to forcibly break through to the Golden Immortal Realm, and then ran away without any time to settle down and level up.

In "Super Beast World", Wang Ming not only tries to find a way to break the cycle of reincarnation, but also spends the rest of his time trying to make up for his own shortcomings.

The Golden Immortal of Great Luo could originally manipulate the free energy between heaven and earth at will, but there was no imprint of the heavenly way of this world on Wang Ming's soul.

Naturally, it is impossible to use the free energy of the secondary world.

The soul bears no imprint of the world!

The downside is that Wang Ming, the Great Golden Immortal, has the weakest Daluo cultivation in history.

The advantage is that if you want to leave this world, you can yo-yo at any time.

With the imprint of the world's heavenly way, Nuwa, Taishang and others' own strength has become strong enough to cross the chaos.

But I dare not leave this world at all.

Nuwa can find the "Fengyun World" according to the coordinates provided by Wang Ming, but she still cannot escape from the "Fengshen World".

Even if a wisp of soul is separated and goes to another world, it cannot be escaped.

Once one day,
If the Heavenly Dao of the main world becomes ill and absorbs them, then the souls from other worlds will also be wiped out.

Wang Ming thought for a long time, then shook his head and said, “I still have a long way to go before I can reach the Quasi-Sage realm.

I'd better not get involved in this muddy water of opportunity to become a saint.

and,

This realm obviously has pitfalls, so it’s best not to step on it if you can.”

Wang Ming came back to his senses and summarized his gains from the battle of Chaoge.

First of all, there is an additional clone vest with the aura of the King of Men. This vest is very important for Wang Ming's plan to gain the power of merit.

Then, Wang Ming completed the background stripping plan.

The upper limit of "World of Conferred Gods" is as high as the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, and the lower limit is as low as mortals fighting each other.

The two realms that are truly active are Taiyi Jinxian and Daluo Jinxian.

Quasi-saints and saints basically exist as background.

It is precisely because there are too many background figures that Wang Ming dare not show up even though he has the strength of a Daluo Jinxian.

When Wang Ming was plotting against Master Ran Deng, he simply stripped away his saintly background.

He used the method of sowing discord to stir up Hongjun and Nuwa, Yuanshi and Tongtian, Haotian and Sanqing.

He detonated the conflicts among various parties and secretly controlled the Long-eared Dingguang Immortal to shake the [Six Soul Banner], directly turning the small-scale battle between the saints into a bloody battle in which both sides suffered losses.

The Battle of Chaoge was almost the same.

But this time it is not to strip the saints, but to strip the quasi-saints.

Without getting rid of this group of cruel and ruthless old guys, Wang Ming would not dare to do his job.

Wang Ming looked at the I Ching in his hand, which had lost its luster, and sighed, "The power of merit!"

·············
Chaoge City.

The Xiqi army retreated, and after a grand carnival, the whole city began to operate in an orderly manner again.

"Your Majesty! Now there are a large number of officials missing. I wonder what we should do?" Fei Lian asked.

King Zhou's mind had long been blinded, and he had no idea what he should and should not do.

In addition, Emperor Xin himself wanted to take back the royal power and suppressed theocracy, aristocratic families, and royal clans within the dynasty.

then,

Massacre of officials in the court.

In addition, after Ji Fa arrived, a large number of powerful officials were directly bribed.

There is now a serious shortage of officials in various departments of Chaoge.

Wang Ming was sitting on the highest platform at the top of the palace, with two bodyguards, Fengyun Shuangsha, standing on his left and right.

Wang Ming thought for a moment and said, "Pick some talented civilians to take up the post directly!"

Fei Lian hesitated for a moment and said, "If I do this, I'm afraid it will attract some criticism."

Fei Lian himself was promoted from a commoner, so naturally he had no idea that promoting a commoner would come at such a high price.

The most fundamental reason for the collapse of any dynasty is the uneven distribution of resources and the solidification of classes.

When Emperor Xin came to power, the situation had already reached a point where it was beyond redemption.

Therefore, Emperor Xin had no choice but to shift the conflict outward and attack the Dongyi.

Then, a group of officials were removed in various ways, thereby consolidating some power.

after all,

The official system of this era was hereditary.

"Don't worry! Those who are capable of opposing have already joined Xiqi, and those who are not capable of opposing don't dare to oppose either." Wang Ming said casually.
Fei Lian was startled when he heard this, and thought to himself, "The king was extremely calm from beginning to end, and he secretly hid three immortal masters.

Could it be that the king deliberately condoned Jifa's rebellion?
The purpose is to get Wei Ziqi and his men to defect, just to test the waters."

Fei Lian immediately said, "Your Majesty! Ji Fa is a traitor who dares to rebel. I will lead the army to recover the lost territory immediately."

"No need! Just guard Chaoge and don't worry about anything else for now." Wang Ming said casually.

Fei Lian was shocked when he heard this: "Sure enough, this was all planned by the king."

There are 800 princes in the world, which means 800 minds. Wang Ming doesn't have the time to scheme against so many people. Wouldn't it be better to meditate and practice instead?

Wang Ming planned to do the same as in "The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", directly defending the capital, watching what happens in the world, waiting for Ji Fa to wipe out other princes, and finally waiting for Ji Fa to be the courier and deliver the power of the world to his door.

In the mythological world, a large territory is of little use. Without a king to protect it, no matter how large the territory is, it can be overthrown by a cultivator.

As long as no one kills Emperor Xin and destroys the ancestral temple of the Shang Dynasty, Emperor Xin will still be the legitimate king of this world.

No matter how they make trouble, they can only gain the qualification to compete for the title of Human King. In the end, if they want to obtain the title of Human King, they must come to Wang Ming.

Wang Ming shook his head and said, "Fei Lian, you can handle the rest. If you can't handle it, ask Feng'er and Yun'er!"

Wang Ming pointed at Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng beside him.

Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng are not only good at killing people, they are also very good at managing people.
