The group discussed the matter for half a day and eventually came to a very plain conclusion.
See the opportunity and take it by force.
Now they had information about Mak Cang Sheng, but as for the rest, the group did not know anything. With such little information, even if they came up with a plan, it would only be a plan on paper.
So they could only conclude with these eight words.
After the crowd dispersed, only Qing Yu and Feng Jiuyu remained in the Hall of Great Brightness. It was also at this time that Feng Jiuyu finally could not resist revealing a painful look, and his right hand even crushed the handle of the dragon chair.
“You had said before that you had resonated with something in the south through the earth chakra. This something, is it the Interligator’s Battle Body?” Qing Yu asked.
As he spoke, he transmitted his divine sense through his mind connection with Feng Jiuyu, suppressing the abnormally active humane will. This method, however, would likewise cause a lot of pressure on Feng Jiuyu.
But it was a lot better than the previous erosion by the humane will.
“Hoo hoo ——”
Feng Jiuyu gasped for air and blinked somewhat wearily as he said, “I can only sense that it is in the south, but as for where exactly it is, I am at a loss.”
The divine capital was located in Yanzhou, which meant that all the locations were possible except for the more northern states of Yunzhou and Mengzhou, as well as the ice fields in the far north.
Although Feng Jiuyu had a sense, that sense was really too vague and intermittent, not to mention the exact location, even the direction was very vague.
“The only two things that are known to have a connection to the earth’s veins are the will of the human dao and the battle body of the Interligator. The thing you sense may be related to the battle body.
I will keep an eye out for it when we fight for the battle body.”
After thinking about it, Qing Yu tentatively targeted the battle body to see if it was related to the object Feng Jiuyu sensed or not.
‘It’s just that it’ll be another killing spree.’ Qing Yu thought helplessly.
After discovering the truth about the blockade, he had actually wanted to keep the Great Tribulation suppressed until his strength reached a critical point before exploding in one fell swoop.
However, the heavens were not willing, Qing Yu wanted to suppress the Great Tribulation, but he couldn’t help the others who wanted to cause trouble. If it falls into the hands of others, there will be another powerful enemy, so Qingyu is determined to get it.
But then, it would fuel the robbery again.
”The momentum has already started, so even if we want to suppress it, we are still a bit reluctant to do so. Before the robbery Qi started, we were the ones pushing it, now it’s the momentum of the great robbery pushing us.”
The successive battles and killings had tightened everyone’s sensitive nerves, not letting go of any opportunity to boost their strength.
The Hind Lie Clan Battle Body is an excellent and tremendous opportunity that no one is willing to miss. Even the Northern Zhou side had the idea of capturing the battle body to grow in strength.
“The over-activity of the human will is not quite normal, in the last few days, I will divide a Yuan Shen in your sea of consciousness to suppress it, so you should not make out with the Empress.” Qing Yu said somewhat proddingly.
He didn’t mind watching, it was up to Feng Jiuyu to decide whether he would mind being surrounded.
“You ——” Feng Jiuyu wanted to rebuke Qing Yu, but the heavy pressure in his sea of consciousness made him a little weak to even speak, so he could only give up the idea of fighting.
“How can I have the energy to make out when I’m like this.”
It was too lazy to even get angry, let alone make out.
“If you think so, then naturally it’s best. I’ll go first.”
————————
Time came in the blink of an eye to December.
In the past two months, although the Southern Border’s press was getting tighter and tighter, it was still measured enough not to cause too many casualties. The Great Qian, on the other hand, was still acting like a shrinking turtle, defending but not counter-attacking, as if waiting for the right moment.
The cold war went on like this until this month, when another power visited the Central Plains.
On the East China Sea, stern boats and flags were flying in the sky, and a fleet of ships pressed on towards the shores of the East China Sea like another continent. The waves pushed up by the advance of the fleet even formed wave after wave of frenzy on the shores of the East Sea, attacking the rocks on the sea.
At last, the East China Sea was showing its fangs and starting to march towards the Central Plains.
On the flagship of the fleet, a figure stepped on the bow, crimson feet as red as blood, and on the handsome face, unhelmeted, were set the most fiery eyes.
“Fifty years on earth, compared with heaven and earth
is but a small thing
Seeing the world, the dream is like water
Let life be a time, a time to die
This is the seed of bodhicitta, the feeling of anguish in the heart
If you go to Kyoto now, if you see the head of Donson
If you look at the world and the sea and the sky, is there anyone who lives forever?”
Suddenly, this handsome middle-aged man with two moustaches sang a long and slow song, and although he did not dance to the words, the song had the feeling that all laws were empty and that the world was like a dream.
Even the surging waves of the sea seem to become illusory and empty in the song. But unlike the song, the gaze of the handsome middle-aged man became more and more fiery, and even had the feeling of burning everything.
“Lord Nobunaga, still this fond of chanting ‘Atsumori’, it is clear that he himself is a madman who brings about war.”
Yanagi Muneyeon marched out of the cabin, each step into the usual standard measured by a ruler, but his face had a casualness to it that was different from his footsteps.
“That’s because ah ——”
The handsome middle-aged man known as “Lord Nobunaga” turned back to me, his eyes burning with a destructive fire, “The more I sang this song, the more I felt like destroying everything. Life is impermanent, like an illusion, old age, sickness and death, there is so much suffering, so let me give relief to the world.”
“Your master, Master Renge, will not be happy if you say that, Lord Nobunaga. Besides, at this time, the East is still led by Buddha.” Yanagi Sōyan shook his head.
“What I am doing is the will of the Buddha, the will of the gods. By placing the Heavenly Clouds Sword in my hands, Amaterasu Daigokami is endorsing my will.”
Lord Nobunaga drew the heavenly clouds sword, which was made of bone, and the clouds surrounding it had the deepest murderous and hostile aura, “I will bring destruction and war to the Middle Kingdom.”
“All troops, speed up and reach the shores of the Eastern Sea before sunset to begin the path of domination in the East.”
The voice carried in all directions, even the sound of the waves was drowned out. The words seemed to contain magic, arousing everyone’s blood and desire to kill.
“Ohhhhhhhhh ——”
With the excited shout, the speed of the warship’s advance increased again, the soldiers paddling in the cabin shouted a horn to speed up, and even some generals puffed up the sails with their true qi, advancing rapidly and fiercely.
On the east coast, there were already soldiers from the eastern state building dykes and towers, bows drawn, waiting for the eastern fleet to come within range.
However, just as the fleet was approaching, a crimson figure leapt out of the flagship, cutting a greyish-white sword qi in the light of the sinking sun.
