Chapter 1236: Chapter 1230: Mobilization
The pinnacle of the nine heavens.
Taihong the Dao Saint passed through the thunder zone, entering the Purple Mist Palace with a slight sense of restraint to meet Hongjun.
"Master, this disciple has been unable to eradicate the Qin Dynasty’s powerful figures from the ancient fierce mountains!"
Walking to the center of the hall, Taihong the Dao Saint respectfully bowed, speaking with a face full of regret.
"The Qin Dynasty has already become a force to be reckoned with!"
Hongjun sat upon a Dao blossom, his flowing black hair moved rhythmically, his Dao robe fluttered, exuding a transcendental air.
Around him, countless laws were entrenched, divine might manifested, as if he was the source of all Dao, emanating a powerful aura, prevailing over all things.
"Master, what do we do next?"
"The disciple observed the great battle at the ancient fierce mountains, all the leaders of the Qin Dynasty have the ability to fight far beyond their level. If they were to break through to Dao Saint..."
Taihong the Dao Saint spoke solemnly.
Hongjun waved a hand, looking at Taihong the Dao Saint, and said: "You and your six siblings have been stuck at the peak of Dao Saint for several epochs, haven’t you?"
Taihong the Dao Saint replied: "That’s correct!"
Hongjun nodded and said: "I know your intentions, but with the seal of the Human Emperor in place, I cannot suppress the Qin Dynasty!"
His tone held a trace of reluctance.
He had tried to suppress the Qin Dynasty, but every time he had failed.
When the Qin was upgrading to the Fortune dynasty, he had tried to intervene but was thwarted by the Azure Emperor; this was one defeat!
Later, he sent the will of all heavens to the cosmic realm, attempting to use the mechanical and eternal clans to eradicate the Qin Dynasty; this was a second defeat!
Finally, he crowned the Heavenly Emperor and Empress, preemptively planning to unify the chaotic outer worlds and gather the fortune of heaven and earth, but unexpectedly the Qin also arrived at the chaotic outer world; this was a third defeat!
Taihong the Dao Saint fell silent, does the master also have no solution?
Is it possible to allow the Qin to occupy the chaotic outer world?
With the strength of the nine powers, they are not a match for the Qin.
Considering the rapid development of the Qin Dynasty, they could completely unify the chaotic outer world in ten years or even less.
By then, their sphere of influence would be limited to the chaotic inner world.
Thrice divide the world, and two-thirds are gone!
"The chaotic inner world and the netherworld are sufficient for me to establish rules!"
Apparently perceiving Taihong the Dao Saint’s concern, Hongjun chuckled lightly, though his smile was very forced.
Upon hearing this, Taihong the Dao Saint secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This way, the advantage still lies with their side.
"Convey an imperial decree for me: ten years hence, I will impart the Dao at the Purple Mist Palace and accept three thousand registered disciples. By then, all six of you must be present!"
After some thought, Hongjun seemed to have resolved something, ordering in a deep voice.
"As you command!"
Taihong the Dao Saint, upon hearing this, showed a hint of joy, respectfully bowed, and departed the Purple Mist Palace.
Inside the palace, Hongjun took out an ancient book from his arms and began to read carefully.
The cover of this ancient book bore five large characters!
Dao Book - Rules Chapter!
"This progenitor... is unwilling!"
After reading it, Hongjun carefully put away the Dao book, his expression distorted, speaking with great unwillingness.
The contents of the Dao book recorded that the strength of the rule domain is related to the size of the rule area.
The larger the region covered by the rules, the stronger the power after breaking through the rule domain.
According to his estimates, if he establishes rules based on the chaotic world and all heavens and worlds, upon breaking through the rule domain, he can directly advance to the mid-stage.
Do not underestimate the gap between early and mid-stage, it can save billions of years of cultivation.
It is conceivable, his hatred towards the Qin Dynasty.
...
Ancient fierce mountains.
Savage Heaven Mountain.
Zheng He, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Xue Rengui, and others sat on chairs, whispering to each other, but not engaging in discussion.
"One day, the roc rises with the same wind, soaring straight up ninety-thousand miles!"
Half a quarter-hour later, a majestic voice echoed in the sky from afar, lingering above the ancient fierce mountains for a long time.
Everyone looked up to see a giant roc bird racing from the distance, each flap of its wings covering ninety-thousand miles.
Within a few breaths, the roc bird descended upon Savage Heaven Mountain, transforming into countless strands of literary air, drifting between heaven and earth.
Following this, Li Bai’s figure emerged, clad in a white robe, three-thousand strands of green silk fluttering, possessing both the elegance of a scholar and the heroism of a knight-errant.
"Lord Li!"
Zheng He, Zhao Yun, and others stood up, walked out of the hall, and cupped their hands.
"The imperial court commands a campaign against the chaotic outer world, gentlemen, the burden on your shoulders is not light!"
Li Bai took out a missive from his arms, jestingly said.
"Understood!"
Zheng He took the missive, happily said: "A burden on our shoulders is a good thing! It means we are still useful!"
As ministers, they fear being idle, not being busy!
Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and others looked at Zheng He, their eyes full of fiery enthusiasm, shining with immense fighting spirit.
Although their strength surpassed Zheng He, Zheng He was the overall leader for developing the chaotic outer world. According to Qin law, external military action required Zheng He’s orders.
"Come, let’s enter the hall to discuss!"
Zheng He, understanding the mood of the generals, smiled and said.
Four hours later, the armies in the ancient fierce mountains frequently mobilized, emitting endless murderous intent, staining the sky, causing the heavens to explode, making all ways retreat.
...
Heaven Gate.
The leaders of the nine powers gathered together.
Each face was filled with worry and concern.
"Report, news from the front line, the Qin Dynasty’s legion has already left the ancient fierce mountains!"
At this time, a scout ran in, knelt on the ground, reporting solemnly, causing the expressions in the hall to change drastically, and the temperature to plummet.
"Dismissed!"
Tianzhu’s expression was somewhat unnatural, pretending to be calm as he commanded.
The scout bowed and turned to leave.
After he left the hall, Tianzhu said to the gathering, "Gentlemen, the Qin Dynasty has started to retaliate! What should we do next, everyone say your thoughts!"
After thinking for a while, the Lord of Forbidden Abyss asked: "Does the Saint have any decree?"
Their attack on the ancient fierce mountains was precisely because of Taihong the Dao Saint’s influence, wasn’t it?
The Lord of Yellow Spring Mansion, the Lord of Slaughter Palace, and the Monarch of Myriad Immortal Nation, all simultaneously raised their heads to look at Tianzhu, as if grabbing the last straw, their eyes filled with hope.
"The master has commanded us to delay by any means necessary until the seal of the Human Emperor is lifted!"
Tianzhu hesitated before speaking.
The crowd was thoroughly disappointed.
Ultimately, they had to find a solution on their own.
"Then let’s deploy troops for a decisive battle!"
Suddenly, the Monarch of Myriad Immortal Nation stood up and said with clenched teeth: "Gentlemen, the Qin Dynasty comes fiercely, aiming to occupy the chaotic outer world, encroaching on our interests. Right before us, we can only fight for our lives!"
"Myriad Immortal Nation is willing to deploy ten billion troops, mobilize all our foundations, to resist the Qin Dynasty’s invasion!"
"One hundred forty years!"
"As long as we endure for one hundred forty years, we can emerge victorious!"
He has no choice, for he is a traitor to humanity.
The other forces might surrender and still have a chance of survival, but not him and the Reach Heaven Sect; the Qin Dynasty is the successor of the Human Emperor and will certainly not spare them.
