“Don’t worry, General, with Daoist Master Qing Yu around, the Subterranean Dragon will not get out of control.” Chen Fei, the Daoist priest who had come to inform Xu Tie Cheng, immediately rea*sured him.
Hearing the name of Qing Yu, Xu Tie Cheng steadied his heart and said with relief, “With Daoist Master Qing Yu around, there is indeed no need to worry. I was too impatient.”
The “Water Soul Formation” under the Flying Cloud Pa*s and the Hidden Dragon were both unseen existences, and as the garrison general of the Flying Cloud Pa*s, Xu Tie Cheng would naturally be loyal to Qing Yu and Feng Jiuyu.
In fact, during the time that Feng Jiuyu has been on the throne, although there has only been one major change in the Northern Zhou court, namely the rebellion of Yi Qianshan, many of the officials and generals in the court have changed their positions.
With Qing Yu’s family a*sistants in the shadows, Feng Jiuyu has quietly changed the dynasty in a silent manner, making everything change in the way that Qing Yu and he want it to.
Xu Tie Cheng is one of Feng Jiuyu’s top generals.
“The most elite team of scouts in the army is on standby and ready to go.” Xu Tie Cheng said.
Although he was a little puzzled as to why the scouts were on standby, he also had a feeling that it had something to do with that weapon. These Daoist priests were hiding underground all day long, just to develop that weapon.
Xu Tie Cheng also wanted to see how powerful that weapon really was.
“Then let us wait for a while ——”
Chen Fei’s eyes flashed with excitement, “Wait for the — Submerged Dragon’s power.”
At this moment, in the deep underground cave, Qing Yu sat cross-legged on a stone platform, drawing a circle with his hands, evolving the shape of Tai Chi, which is compatible with Yin and Yang.
The water around him spun more rapidly with Qing Yu’s movements. However, the sound emitted from this swift movement was becoming more and more faint, and the surrounding stone walls were not affected by the swirling vortex.
“The underground dark river in the Northlands is not as vast as the sea.” Qing Yu suddenly sighed softly.
If we talk about the upper limit of the power of this Subterranean Dragon, it should be able to far surpa*s the original version. After all, it was a*sisted by the strong heaven and earth energy and spell formation.
Even if all the subterranean rivers in the North were combined, they would not be able to match the vast expanse of the ocean.
If it were in the sea, the water flow would not be so easily manipulated by Qing Yu.
“If it were in the sea, the power of the Submerged Dragon could be multiplied several times,” Gu Chen said with some regret, “but we are also afraid that the power of the Submerged Dragon is not enough, so we have also carved some more formation plates, so that when the time comes, with the help of the power of the Earth Ministry, we can borrow some of the power of the Earth to increase the power of the Submerged Dragon. ”
“Oh?” Qing Yu also brightened up, “This idea, however, is very feasible.”
Compared to water flow, using the earth’s qi was more difficult, but that did not mean it was not feasible. In this world, Yuan Qi is so abundant that there are even such magical things as dragon veins, so why can’t we use the Qi of the earth?
If there are submerged dragons, why can’t there be earth dragons?
Besides, Qing Yu had in his hands the “Secret Book of Geomancy”, the masterpiece of the old man’s life’s art of feng shui and geomancy, and the creation of an earth dragon was extremely feasible.
“After this test of the Subterranean Dragon, you and the others will start working on the Earth Dragon.” Qing Yu said.
“Earth Dragon?”
Combined with what he had said before, Gu Chen immediately thought of what the Earth Dragon was, and immediately his heart was greatly lifted.
Progression to the Tong Shen was something that Gu Chen would never think about in his lifetime, but to have a weapon with power comparable to that of a Tong Shen born from his own hands was something that had to be said to be very exciting.
“It is a pity that my subordinate is not gifted enough, but it is difficult for me to cultivate “Zhouliu Earth Power” at the same time, so I can only play a hand in creating this Earth Dragon.” Gu Chen sighed.
It could not be helped, as they say, “If a soldier comes to stop a soldier, water will come to cover up the earth”, and “Zhouliu Earth Power” was the very Qi that restrained “Zhouliu Water Power”.
Even if he were to switch his practice, he would not be able to do so. The restrained Qi could not be transformed, so he could only abolish it all and start from scratch. But to start from scratch, that meagre strength could not preside over the development of the Earth Dragon.
“The Earth Dragon is still far away, now it is better to see the power of the Subterranean Dragon.”
Qing Yu’s palms were interlaced, but he danced a palm technique that he had not used for a long time, “The Submerged Dragon is made after the meridians and dantian of the human body, since this is the case, if one can fully control this ‘true qi’ (water flow), it is not impossible to use martial arts here.”
“Water is the softest and most rigid of all, and there is no one so soft and weak as water, but no one so strong that they can overcome it. Today, let us use this martial art with the power of both softness and rigidity.”
“Hyper Dragon has Regret.”
With the palm, the dragon roared.
The water that had been spinning in the shape of Taiji suddenly poured out in one direction, following the long-planned meridians (waterways) and roaring out.
A rumbling sound emanated from beneath the earth, causing the surface above to tremble as well.
“Here it comes.” Xu Tie Cheng and Chen Fei on the ground both lit up before their eyes.
“Boom…”
There was a sudden explosion in the distance, followed by a sound of the mountains shaking and the earth moving. The sound was so loud that the soldiers in the Flying Cloud Pa*s were clamouring.
“Due north, about a mile away.” Xu Tie Cheng, who had been in the army for many years, instantly knew where the loud noise was coming from.
“Pa*s on this general’s order, the wind scout team will immediately rush to the one mile north and map out everything they see.”
The order, which was enriched with true qi, exploded from the mouth of the lieutenant outside the house, causing the other side to immediately respond loudly, “Yes.”
“The power is already enough to compare to the moves made at the Tong Shen realm, but the mobility is far inferior.”
Qing Yu slowly opened his eyes, and the destruction of the mountain a mile away was right in front of him. Naturally, he did not need to go through the scouts to know about the destruction caused by the Subterranean Dragon. The scouts were there for Xu Tie Cheng and Gu Dan and the others.
“One mile, with my strength today, I can only remotely control the water this far, any further and the water flow will not be able to retrieve it.” Qing Yu said.
This was not the sea, the water flow was inexhaustible, if this water flow was out of control, it would be necessary for Gu Dan to lead people to waste a lot of time and energy to divert the flow again.
“It is indeed a great pity that the submerged dragon could not be built in the middle of the sea.” Gu Chen also shook his head in a somewhat disappointed manner.
While the power comparable to that of the Tong Shen realm was within expectations, the immense limitations were what affected Gu Dust’s mood more than the expectations being reached.
If it were in the sea, it would not only be able to have endless seawater for power, but it would also be able to move freely in the sea, instead of being confined to this Flying Cloud Pa*s.
“Let’s go.”
Qing Yu grabbed Gu Chen by the shoulders and rushed upwards, into the land above.
Inside Xu Tie Cheng’s general’s residence.
Xu Tie Cheng and Chen Fei received the atlas handed to them by their lieutenant, and both looked at the scene described in the atlas with horror and trembling.
To be a good scout, one must not only be sensitive and agile, but also have excellent sketching skills.
This scout had drawn the scene he saw in a few strokes, and the two men were shocked.
