Dimness.
As if placed in a place of eternal darkness.
Xu Qingnian’s consciousness fell into a comatose state.
There was no feeling other than that terrible sensation of falling.
I don’t know how long it took.
Finally.
Xu Qingnian’s consciousness gradually woke up.
Opening her eyes.
The ten thousand miles of bare land looked incomparably desolate.
It was like a land without people.
There was no life here, and as far as the eye could see, it was endlessly bare land, and the desolate aura was overwhelming, causing one to feel despair.
“Is this the Midcontinent Immortal Collection? Why does it look so dilapidated?”
Xu Qingnian spoke.
As he looked at the mountain range, he could not help but ask the Dan God Ancient Scripture.
Next to his earlobe, the Dan God Ancient Scripture also seemed to be gazing at this area.
Eventually the Dan God Ancient Scripture spoke.
“No one has said that this area is a holy land, it is true that this is an immortal treasure, but there are also dangers.”
The Dan Shen Ancient Scripture said so.
When the words were said, Xu Qingnian did not think much about it, but sat down cross-legged, sensing the environment here carefully to see if there was any danger.
But at that very moment, a tremor came from the Heaven and Earth Palace of Literature.
In an instant, Chao Ge’s voice rang out.
“Xiandi, the last person has revived, we can awaken our memories and will not appear for a while, so you should be careful.”
Chao Ge’s voice rang out, causing Xu Qingnian to be somewhat surprised.
There were seven statues in the Heaven and Earth Literature Palace, six of them had been revived, and the last one was yet to be revived.
Right now, after coming to this area, the seventh statue had not been expected to revive.
“Don’t worry, brother, I understand.”
Xu Qingnian gave his reply.
In fact, Xu Qingnian very much hoped that Chao Ge and the others would recover their memories, these people were hiding great secrets and could help him know more things.
“En, but the Heaven and Earth Literature Palace can also help you, if you encounter evil spirits, you can use the power of the Heaven and Earth Literature Palace.”
Chao Ge left these words behind, and then completely dived into sleep, cultivating himself and recovering his memories.
At that moment.
Xu Qingnian took a deep breath.
The next path was left for him to walk alone.
After getting up.
Xu Qingnian walked towards the depths of the valley.
He had already sensed everything around him, and there was no great danger.
“Little friend, let me be honest, you still have a chance to retreat now, I have a way to find a way back, if you go deeper into it, you will easily be buried here.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing’s voice rang out, at this moment, he was really a little panicked.
Discouraging Xu Qingnian from turning back now.
However, Xu Qingnian’s face was calm.
“Senior, Xu Mou has never turned back in his life.”
Xu Qingnian’s reply made it a little difficult for Dan Shen Gu Jing.
What time is it now, still pretending to be a bleep?
Don’t pretend without a sidekick.
Sighing, Dan Shen Gu Jing knew Xu Qingnian’s heart, and he did not continue to persuade.
A way forward.
One man and one furnace spanned this mountain range.
The valley was desolate and the earth was ruddy.
It gave a feeling of exile.
Looking up, Xu Qingnian noticed that there was no sun here, but the dome of the sky would emit some pale red light that spilled over the area, causing it to look even more terrifying.
There was no danger, yet it gave people an inexplicable feeling of palpitations.
The atmosphere was too depressing.
More to the point.
This area, it was as if there was no end to it.
Yes.
There was no end.
A few hours later.
Xu Qingnian stopped walking.
“Senior, do you feel it?”
Xu Qingnian spoke out as he gazed around and slowly spoke.
“En, we are trapped and cannot leave here.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing spoke up and gave his verdict.
“What’s going on here?”
“Is it a formation?”
Xu Qingnian asked curiously.
“It’s not a formation, it’s a kind of mountain formation, if it were a formation, you should have noticed it the first time.”
“It’s a mountain formation, it’s a natural coalescence of heaven and earth, be more careful.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing sensed something and he made a judgement, informing Xu Qingnian.
Now that the two were bound together, if something happened to Xu Qingnian, he would not be any better off.
“A mountain formation?”
Xu Qingnian knew about such things.
A formation was a potential caused by the use of some artifacts, which could be easily understood as magnetic changes.
And there were some mountain ranges that were born with their own magnetic fields, forming natural formations, these formations were extremely terrifying, not man-made, but naturally formed by heaven and earth, difficult to break.
“There should be a way to break it, does senior have a way?”
Xu Qingnian continued to ask.
“The solution is simple, just find the king of the mountain, the key point of this formation formed naturally by heaven and earth is among the eyes of the formation, and this eye of the formation, is hidden within a mountain, as long as you find this mountain and destroy it, it will be much simpler.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing replied.
“Hidden in a mountain?”
He looked up and saw that there was a vast expanse of mountains, if you really want to talk about it, there were millions of big mountains, how could this be found?
“En, and the Mountain King will flee by himself, he has spiritual intelligence, he will run if the situation is not right, little friend, listen to my advice, let’s go, think of a way now, there is still a chance to escape, if we continue to drag on like this, there will be no way out at all.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing continued to persuade Xu Qingnian.
“No need, we can give it a try.”
Xu Qingnian looked very confident, he wanted to give it a try, this difficulty was nothing.
“Alas, little friend, do you know why so many geniuses from ancient to modern times have not made it to the end?”
Dan Shen Gu Jing said.
“Why?”
Xu Qingnian was also somewhat curious.
“Because they all didn’t listen to advice.”
Dan Shen Gu Jing said helplessly.
Xu Qingnian: “…….”
Without further nagging, Xu Qingnian searched among the mountains, using the Martial Emperor’s power within him to search for the Mountain King.
In this way, in the blink of an eye, tens of days had pa*sed.
Within the Immortal Collection, Xu Qingnian had searched for tens of days, but had not found the Mountain King.
However, unlike inside the Immortal Collection, which seemed very calm, outside the Immortal Collection, it was a little more intense.
Great Wei Dynasty.
Imperial Palace.
Two figures slowly appeared inside the imperial palace.
Behind these two figures stood some amba*sadors.
These were the amba*sadors of the Sudden Evil Dynasty and the Primordial Yuan Dynasty, who had come today to discuss the matter of the Divine Martial Cannon.
Soon.
The two amba*sadors arrived in the middle of the main hall.
The civil and military officials had already gathered here.
“Tusi Dynasty, Minister of Rites, pay my respects to the Great Wei Empress, may Your Majesty live long and prosper.”
“Chuyuan Dynasty, Minister of Rites, pay respects to the Empress of Great Wei, may Your Majesty be blessed like the Eastern Sea.”
The Minister of Rites of the two dynasties personally came to the talks, thus showing how much importance the Chuyuan Dynasty and the Tusi Dynasty attached to this peace talk.
“Please excuse me.”
Inside the hall, the empress slowly spoke, allowing the crowd to rise.
“Your Majesty, this time we, the Turk’s Evil, present three thousand war horses, one million catties of fine grain and rice, two million taels of gold, three thousand pieces of pearls and jade, and eight hundred pieces of exotic treasures, and may Great Wei and the Turk’s Evil be friendly and non-aggressive for generations to come.”
The Minister of Rites of the Tusi Dynasty spoke up and named a large number of gifts.
“Your Majesty, this time I, Chuyuan, present twelve boxes of pearls and agates, one hundred pounds of eight-coloured gems, five thousand war horses, one hundred thousand pounds of fine iron, and nine hundred pieces of exotic treasures, in the hope that Great Wei and Chuyuan will be friendly and non-aggressive from generation to generation.”
The Minister of Rites of the Primordial Yuan Dynasty followed suit.
The two dynasties had sent quite a lot of things, adding up to tens of thousands of thousands of taels of silver.
And this was just a meeting gift.
“Great Wei has always been friendly with the two great dynasties and has never infringed.”
“Aiqing Wang, return the gift, fifty million taels of silver, one hundred thousand taels of gold, twenty chests of gold and silver jewellery, and one million catties of Great Wei’s spiritual rice from each of the two countries.”
The empress spoke, looking very natural.
If it had been Wei last year, she would not have dared to ask for such a gift, but now it was different, and Wei was really not short of this amount of silver.
The two amba*sadors did not take any pleasure in hearing this from the Empress, this is not a gift, they have come to Wei for other reasons.
“Your Majesty of Great Wei, His Majesty of the Sudden Evil sent me here today for the Divine Martial Cannon.”
“I wonder what Your Majesty of Great Wei is considering?”
The Minister of Rites of the Sudden Evil opened his mouth, without any inflection, and opened up to the truth.
Hearing these words, the empress said in a slow voice.
“I have already spoken to the Emperor of Turk’s Evil about this matter, the Divine Martial Cannon was forged by the King of Ping Chaos, and the King of Ping Chaos is stabilizing his realm at this time, so when the King of Ping Chaos has stabilized his realm, then we can discuss it with the two dynasties.”
Ji Ling opened his mouth, using the words he had thought of before to stall back.
However, the Minister of Rites of the Primordial Yuan Dynasty shook his head.
“Your Majesty of Great Wei, the Emperor of Sudden Evil and my Emperor of Primordial Yuan have both come with sincerity, we sincerely hope that the Divine Martial Cannon will be shared, and my Emperor has also said that as long as Great Wei is willing to share the Divine Martial Cannon.”
“The two dynasties will give large amounts of supplies, iron ore, and manpower to a*sist Great Wei in its heyday.”
“The Divine Constellation Cannon is so powerful that there are rumours that Your Majesty will attack the two dynasties next, if that happens, it will be difficult for the Emperor to sleep and eat, and I think it will be difficult for the Emperor to sleep and eat.”
“I hope Your Majesty will understand.”
He spoke out, with a humble gesture, but there was nothing humble about these words.
On the contrary, they were somewhat aggressive.
“How dare you.”
“Unbridled.”
“How dare you say that you can’t sleep and eat in peace. When our Northern Expedition was in decline, did you ever consider whether the Great Wei would have trouble sleeping and eating in peace?”
“The Primordial Yuan Dynasty even secretly manufactured the Heavenly Thunder Cannon and even gave it to the Barbarian Kingdom, causing Great Wei to lose thirteen cities, and now they are asking for the Divine Martial Cannon? It is really ridiculous.”
Chen Zhengru’s voice rang out.
He angrily rebuked the amba*sadors of the two great dynasties, his words filled with disdain and anger.
“Right.”
“That’s right.”
“You disrespected my Wei in the first place, and now you are saying such things? Are you laughing?”
“The Divine Martial Artillery, it’s not that it can’t be shared, but at least give Great Wei time, right? The king has not even come out of seclusion, and you are already eager to ask for it.
One by one, the officials spoke up, and they lashed out at the amba*sadors of the two dynasties.
In the face of such angry rebukes, the two Minister of Rites did not look flustered.
If they had dared to come to Great Wei, they had been prepared to be scolded.
It was only when the group of ministers had finished their insults that the Minister of Rites of the Primordial Yuan Dynasty spoke up.
“I understand what you all mean, but the Barbarian Kingdom’s Heavenly Thunder Cannon was not a gift from the Primordial Yuan Dynasty, but rather they intercepted as well as bribed a general, and we admit the blame for the dereliction of duty, only that it was not a gift of Primordial Yuan’s own accord, and I hope you all understand that the Primordial Yuan Dynasty does not wish to start a war.”
The other side spoke out, taking their responsibility off cleanly, admitting a small mistake, but dead set on not admitting that the barbarian nation’s Heavenly Thunder Cannon, came from Chor-Yuan.
Valley/span But this was normal, no one would admit it without conclusive evidence.
“Humph.”
“Ridiculous.”
“Do you think we believe it?”
The ministers sneered.
“Whether you all believe it or not, this is the truth.”
“Of course, the Primordial Yuan Dynasty will also be responsible and compensate accordingly, all this is well said, before coming, His Majesty the Primordial Yuan also said that compensation would be given, I hope that His Majesty the Great Wei would rather rest.”
He opened his mouth to reply, seemingly ready for anything.
If there was a mistake, he would admit it, all kinds of compensation were willing, and the aim was clear: to take the Divine Martial Cannon.
“Your Majesty, all these things are actually fine, if Your Majesty really feels that it is not right, we can also help Your Majesty and completely eradicate the people of the barbarian kingdom to eliminate future problems.”
“Only, today we have come for the Divine Martial Cannon, the rest of the matters, whatever Your Majesty says, the two dynasties are also willing to do.”
The amba*sador from the Sudden Evil Dynasty spoke.
After all was said and done, they still returned to the very first topic.
The Divine Martial Cannon.
“Tell the Emperor of the Sudden Evil, and the Emperor of the First Yuan.”
“Great Wei does not wish to start a war, nor does it wish to create slaughter, and the Divine Martial Cannon, will be shared between the two dynasties.”
Just then, the empress spoke.
If Xu Qingnian were here, she would not have said this, but the other day, Xu Qingnian had purposely sent her a message.
No matter what, the two great dynasties must not be offended.
It was not that she was afraid of them, but that she could not start a war.
So the Divine Martial Cannon, could be shared, only not now.
When the two amba*sadors heard this, they instantly revealed their delight.
They didn’t expect the empress to agree directly, this was a great blessing.
“Dare I ask Your Majesty, when will it be shared?”
They asked.
In unison.
“When the King of Peaceful Chaos comes out of the gate, it will be shared immediately.”
This was the empress’ reply.
But upon hearing this, the two amba*sadors could not help but frown.
Was this still a delay after all was said and done?
“I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me and give an exact time, after all, if the King of Peace and Chaos is in seclusion for a year, my dynasty is only afraid that it cannot wait.”
The other party spoke out in reply, bowing his head and saying this.
But as soon as the words were spoken, the hall instantly exploded.
“What do you mean you can’t wait?”
“How dare you.”
“What do you mean? Do you want to start a war?”
This was the Great Wei Dynasty, the Imperial Palace of Great Wei, and two amba*sadors dared to say such things?
Were they really not afraid of death?
“I would like to ask you, if Wei does not give us the Divine Martial Artillery, what do you want to do? Do you want to go to war with Wei? Then go back now and tell your emperor that Great Wei is not afraid of a war.”
The empress was also a little angry.
We all knew each other’s thoughts.
But who could stand it if they had to say it out in the open?
Sensing the empress’ anger.
The latter did not panic, but bowed towards the Empress and said.
“Your Majesty of Great Wei, please forgive me.”
“The Primordial Yuan Dynasty has no intention of going to war, except that the Divine Martial Cannon, threatens the peace of the Central Continent.”
“Rumours have already begun to spread among the people that Great Wei will attack our dynasty in the near future, and for the sake of self-preservation, our dynasty has no choice but to do so.”
“If we can get the Divine Martial Artillery, everything will be fine, and if Wei needs anything, Chu Yuan will give it to us.
“But if we don’t get the Divine Martial Cannon, the Primordial Yuan Dynasty will be forced to declare war.”
He had come here for the purpose of the Divine Martial Cannon, and it was pointless to hide it.
To put it in a bad way, they were already prepared to be killed.
“When the arrogance is truly unparalleled, then let’s go to war.”
“Your Majesty, now that Great Wei’s army is strong, and since the Primordial Yuan Dynasty is so arrogant, I ask for orders to declare war on Primordial Yuan.”
“If you want war, Great Wei will never fear war.”
The officials began to roar, and even the civil ministers could not help but curse angrily and demand war.
The Chor-Yuan Dynasty had sent an envoy to Great Wei and dared to say such words.
War without giving the Divine Constellation cannon?
Then let’s fight, what are we afraid of?
Now that Great Wei has a first rank, generals, and food, and with the nourishment of the Dragon Cauldron in the Middle Continent, Great Wei is really not afraid of fighting.
A protracted war would be fine.
A blitzkrieg would be fine.
Great Wei already had the capital to declare war.
As expected, when the atmosphere reached this point, the two amba*sadors also paled a little.
But they couldn’t say anything, what was explained from above, that was it, give or take, declare war, no nonsense.
“Three months.”
But at this very moment, the Empress’s voice suddenly rang out, causing the hall to fall silent instantly.
“Three months later, the Divine Martial Cannon will be sent.”
This was the Empress’s voice.
Three months’ time to send the Divine Martial Cannon over.
As soon as they heard this, the court full of civil servants froze.
The other side was riding face to face with the output, and the Empress chose to compromise?
Great Wei was not afraid to fight, so why should she compromise?
But they were silent, after all, the empress had spoken, so they couldn’t say anything.
The two amba*sadors were a little stunned, and to be honest basically when the word came down to it, the three kingdoms would inevitably declare war, and no one would concede defeat.
Perhaps after some days, we can talk about it again, but I didn’t expect the empress to compromise.
Just as quickly, the two came back to their senses and bowed towards the empress.
“I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but …….”
“The emperor of my dynasty, asks for ten days.”
“And I hope Your Majesty will forgive me.”
The other party replied, saying this.
As soon as this was said, the hall exploded again.
This was really a bit shameless to give face.
Opening his mouth was the Divine Martial Cannon.
He said he would give it to you and give a clear time.
If you don’t give it, declare war.
Three months were given.
Now comes the phrase, ten days.
If they didn’t know, they would think that Wei owed them.
The two amba*sadors had a headache.
They bowed their heads to be scolded, while also saying stiffly.
“Please rest a*sured, Your Majesty of Great Wei, if Your Majesty is generous and willing to contribute to the peace of the Central Continent, Chu Yuan and Sudden Evil, will definitely do their best to support Your Majesty.”
They opened their mouths, and this was all they could say.
“Your Majesty, it must not be agreed.”
“Your Majesty, I believe that war can be declared.”
“Yes, Your Majesty, war can be declared.”
The ministers spoke up, dead set on declaring war.
There was some anger.
On the dragon chair.
The empress was silent as she looked at the two amba*sadors.
Finally speaking slowly, she said.
“Give it ten days, I will give you an accurate answer.”
This was the Empress’ reply.
“Your Majesty of Great Wei.”
The two amba*sadors were about to continue speaking, but the next moment.
The Empress rose and gazed at the two.
“Pa*s on my decree to declare war on Chu Yuan, the Sudden Evil.”
“Want to hear this?”
The empress spoke, and she too was angry.
She herself had retreated again and again because of Xu Qingnian, not because she was afraid of the two dynasties.
In an instant, the two knelt on the ground and shook their heads repeatedly, asking the Empress to calm her anger.
“Retreat from the court.”
Without any nonsense, the empress turned and left, while within the great hall, the civil and military officials were always holding their breath.
And so, in the twinkling of an eye, seven days pa*sed.
This day.
The Central Continent Immortal Collection.
In the Red Earth Mountain Range.
Xu Qingnian sat in meditation for seven days, and instead of continuing his silly search, he used his divine thoughts to search for where the Mountain King was.
It was on this day.
Xu Qingnian caught an unusual wisp of aura.
It was hundreds of miles away, in a flash.
Like lightning, Xu Qingnian arrived in this small mountain.
The power of the Martial Emperor fell straight down.
Instantly.
A great explosion occurred.
This small mountain was instantly reduced to flat land.
The surroundings also changed instantly, and a huge pa*sage appeared.
The mountain formation had been broken by Xu Qingnian.
Without any hesitation, Xu Qingnian entered the pa*sageway and travelled all the way across.
The underground pa*sage was tens of miles long.
Eventually, a cave world came into view.
This world was like a fairyland.
But the next moment.
Xu Qingnian’s entire body froze.
A large mountain appeared in front of him.
It was tens of miles away.
What shocked Xu Qingnian was that.
This large mountain was actually a mountain that was all forged from extremely high quality spirit gold.
This.
Incredible.
It was astonishing.
Very high quality spirit gold was incredibly precious outside.
Yet, it was unexpected that here, it had evolved into a huge mountain.
So much extremely fine spirit gold.
How many divine Martial Cannons must be refined.
It was unimaginable.
