'Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements!'
Many Dong Tianjun gently tasted these words in their hearts.
True Lord Yuanji raised his hands towards True Lord Mingxin and said:
"Please talk to fellow Taoist Mingxin in detail!"
True Lord Mingxin became interested, and with a flick of his hand in front of him, dozens of tables appeared in front of everyone, and he extended his hand to signal everyone to sit down.
After everyone sat down, a wine bottle with a thin neck and a big belly flew out from the sleeves of Zhenjun Mingxin and flew in front of everyone. Ice crystal wine bottles spontaneously condensed in front of everyone.
After pouring wine for everyone like a dragonfly, the jug will fall on the koan. When someone's cup is empty, the jug will fly up and fill it up on its own.
Concerning the magic of the wine pot, many Dongzhen Lords are well-informed and knowledgeable, but no one pays too much attention to it, and they all look towards True Lord Mingxin.
True Lord Mingxin raised his hand to drink the wine in the cup, then smiled and said:
"Although I guided the 'Golden River Tribe' to switch to the Suzaku Kingdom seven days ago, in fact, I have been in contact with the Suzaku Kingdom for several years.
Through various understandings, I am convinced that the Suzaku Kingdom will definitely win this war in the future. After entering [Qi Banner] and observing the other three parties, I am even more convinced of this."
Zhenjun Yanyun couldn't help but said:
"Fellow Taoist Mingxin, remember that you and I agreed that we were going to surrender to True Lord Feihong.
And I think the strength of the 'Luo Kingdom' is much stronger than that of the Suzaku Kingdom, why are you so sure?"
True Lord Mingxin smiled lightly and said:
"Fellow Taoist Yanyun, let me tell you the simplest reason first.
After more than one hundred and thirty years of fighting, the current war situation in the ‘Shanhai Realm’ has become clear.
Basically, the final winner will only be born between the ‘Luo Kingdom’ in the eastern region, the Suzaku Kingdom in the southern region, the ‘Wanling Tribe’ in the western region, and the ‘Lihun Mountain Tribe’ in the northern region. Am I right about this?”
Everyone nodded. The war of more than 130 years was so cruel. The national strength of most forces was dragged down by this war.
In the past twenty years, the four major forces below have spread faster than in the previous hundred years.
True Lord Mingxin continued:
"In fact, not only did the Suzaku Kingdom send people to contact the 'Golden River Tribe', but True Lord Feihong and other forces also had contact with the 'Golden River Tribe', including the 'Luo Kingdom'.
I believe that all of you here have also had contact with other tribes, although due to the rules of [Contract Flag], we cannot leave our own sphere of influence.
But there’s no problem in sending envoys to join forces, right?”
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other and smiled softly, but no one spoke.
True Lord Mingxin continued:
"After I came into contact with other forces, the first reason why I chose the Suzaku Kingdom instead of the stronger 'Luo Kingdom' was..."
He looked at everyone and slowly said:
"It's because only the Suzaku Kingdom relies on the pure power of the human race."
The hearts of everyone present were moved, and True Lord Mingxin continued:
"The 'Luo Kingdom' is indeed very powerful, but in fact the people who dominate the country in this kingdom are no longer purely human.
Those humans who have been catalyzed by the power of blood have unique eyesight and the talent of being able to hide their bodies in the moonlight. It gives me the feeling that these people are no longer purely human."
True Lord Mingxin raised his eyes and saw someone about to open his mouth, and immediately raised his voice and said:
"The reason why I say this is because the living environment of these special human races is different from that of humans. They live together with wild beasts, nest among the trees, and reject all non-natural substances.
To give the simplest example, they do not allow artificial cultivation of grains, believing that this is against the laws of natural growth.
Everyone..."
True Lord Mingxin looked around at everyone and said softly:
"If one day the 'Luo Kingdom' unites this world, it will definitely promote its domestic policies.
If people are not allowed to cultivate grains and grains, how will countless human beings survive?
In addition to this, several other national policies of the 'Luo Kingdom' include that no houses can be built and only nests can be built for living. Every year, the number of children in the country in the coming year will be determined based on the number of wild beasts in nature.
According to the concept of the "Luo Kingdom", the material in the entire world is constant and there must be a complete cycle.
If there are more wild animals, the number of tribesmen can be increased in the coming year.
But if there are fewer beasts, then..."
True Lord Mingxin was silent for a moment, then sighed:
"Then we need to reduce the number of tribesmen to ensure the balance of nature!"
As soon as these words came out, some Dong Tianjun's expressions couldn't help but change.
A simple sentence, but it hides cruelty and bloodshed.
A Dongzhenjun said with some suspicion:
"That can't be the case, right?
True Lord Feihong is also a member of the human race, how could he lead such a deformed force with his knowledge!"
True Lord Mingxin said leisurely:
"Zhenjun Feihong naturally does not dare to act like this in his own realm, but the 'mountain and sea realm' is just a barren land.
Maybe you can do some things that you once only dared to think about but didn't dare to do.
After all...hehe, no matter what the final result is, we have to leave here!"
'After I die, who cares about the floods!'
It has to be said that the actions performed by True Lord Feihong are very consistent with the psychology of a normal practitioner.
After a period of silence, Zhenjun Yuanji shook his head and said:
“Zhenjun Feihong’s path has gone astray!”
As a member of the human race, using fellow humans for experiments was a bit unacceptable to everyone present.
Although he also made some cover-ups, since everyone present has been able to practice to the current level, and who is not a very thoughtful person, they can see the true intention of True Lord Feihong at a glance.
The final step to becoming a Taoist is to find your own Tao.
Perhaps this is the core concept of Feihong Zhenjun, to establish a natural ecological cycle system that is self-consistent!
Tao follows nature!
These four words have a new elaboration!
Everyone has their own ideas and pursuits. No one can say that Feihong Zhenjun's ideas are wrong, so Zhenjun Yuanji just sighed and said nothing more.
True Lord Mingxin signaled everyone to drink, and then continued after a moment:
"This is just the first reason. Since we are human beings, how can we not support our own race and turn to others.
Secondly, another reason why I chose the Suzaku Kingdom is because of ‘civilization and inheritance’!”
Jin Le Zhenjun was startled for a moment, and said somewhat strangely:
"This is not special, I think many forces supported by fellow Taoists are like this!"
True Lord Mingxin smiled, raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp, and then said:
"You must have discovered that the development of the Suzaku Kingdom is very similar to the development of the human race in our own territory, right?"
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads.
True Lord Mingxin continued:
"But this is just a feeling you have. In fact, there are differences."
He pondered for a moment and said:
"When I first supported these forces, I think most of you had the same approach as me.
Spread language, writing, magic, farming, smelting, various craftsmanship and other civilization inheritance, and perhaps various systems and beliefs.
But why is our final development not as good as that of the Suzaku Kingdom?"
A Dong Tianzhenjun who had been absorbed into the [Qi Banner] decades ago said:
"I have noticed this. The predecessor of the Suzaku Kingdom was the Xiawan Tribe. When Taoist Ruyi supported this tribe, there were 400,000 people.
His starting point is too high. If the tribe I support originally had so many people, haha..."
There was some jealousy, some disdain in his words, and there was even envy that he might not even be aware of.
The Suzaku Kingdom, which was also an outsider and supported by True Lord Ruyi, could eventually become one of the four major forces, which seemed to outshine many of its comrades in one fell swoop.
They were all practitioners at the same level. He felt that if the tribe he supported initially had 400,000 people, his achievements might not be as bad as those of Yizhenjun.
True Lord Mingxin glanced at this person with disdain in his heart, and then said:
"I have been in contact with the Suzaku Kingdom. According to its historical records, it was indeed called the 'Xiawan Tribe' before the founding of the country.
But there are only 1,437 members in the tribe.
As for the origins of those 400,000 people, perhaps the people in the Suzaku Kingdom may not know as clearly as I do."
After a brief pause, Zhenjun Mingxin continued:
"Back then, I and more than a thousand people rushed to the 'Three Poisons Phaseless Peak'. In order to avoid affecting ordinary people in the battle, True Lord Ruyi took away the 400,000 people who were building the 'Phaseless Peak'.
The 400,000 people who were taken away were the group of people who later laid the foundation of the Suzaku Kingdom."
When Zhenjun Mingxin said this, he suddenly said to the man just now:
“When True Lord Ruyi led these 400,000 people into the ‘Xiawan Tribe’, it was the winter season, everything was withered, and there was no food for nearly a hundred days.
Fellow Taoist, if you are given 400,000 people now, how are you going to feed them?"
The Lord Dong Tianzhen was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing and said with some embarrassment:
"Fellow Taoist Mingxin, what do you mean?
Just 400,000 people, one hundred days...one hundred days..."
As he talked, he couldn't help but feel stuck in his throat and couldn't speak.
The humans in this world are nine feet tall, and their daily food needs are more than three times that of the humans outside.
Even if he has his own 'Dongtian' to supplement it, the consumption of 400,000 people for one hundred days cannot be afforded. Not everyone's 'Dongtian' forms a small world like Zhang Ke's.
True Lord Mingxin ignored that person and continued:
"With those 400,000 people, the Suzaku Kingdom has indeed gained a very good starting point, but if it were you and me, I'm afraid we wouldn't dare to ask for these many people, right?
Four hundred thousand human lives, what a huge cause and effect."
Regarding this war, no matter how many people die, the practitioners will not care.
After all, they did not personally participate in this war and did not kill anyone.
Inheriting civilization and guiding the development of the human race are merits. As for war, it is just a natural development trend and has nothing to do with you.
But if you really give yourself 400,000 people, but you can't guarantee their survival, the cause and effect involved will be huge.
You can say that these practitioners are hypocritical, but this is just an act of idealism. Right and wrong only lie in the minds of everyone.
"I have studied the rise of the Suzaku Kingdom. These 400,000 people are just the foundation. The most important thing is that Lord Ruyi did the other three things in the Suzaku Kingdom, which finally allowed the Suzaku Kingdom to rise."
True Lord Mingxin said, seeing everyone showing curiosity, he smiled slightly, made a fist with five fingers and stretched out one finger.
“First, he spent twenty years passing on knowledge to the next two generations of the ‘Hawan Tribe’ at that time.
This move completely opened up the wisdom of the people of this tribe, and quickly promoted the development of this tribe through the various knowledge they learned.
Therefore, even if Taoist Ruyi no longer guides this tribe, this tribe is still developing rapidly and spontaneously.
It only took Zhenjun Ruyi twenty years to accelerate the advancement of civilization in the Suzaku Kingdom.
You can think about it, how many years did it take for the realm we live in to transition from the barbaric era to the civilized era?
Just by comparing it, you will surely understand the importance of Taoist Ruyi’s twenty years of preaching, teaching and solving doubts!”
Everyone present was greatly shocked. As a practitioner, how could we not know the importance of knowledge to the development of civilization?
However, among practitioners who are used to being aloof, there are still a few people who are willing to spend their precious time doing this for worldly people.
It is already difficult to teach just one disciple, but this is a tribe with hundreds of thousands of people.
What's more, this is not just once or twice, but over a period of twenty years.
In addition, they don't have the experience of popularizing education like Zhang Ke in the 'Blue World'. Even if they are asked to teach, they don't know what to teach.
At this moment, as soon as True Lord Mingxin reminded them, everyone instantly knew the gap between themselves and True Lord Ruyi.
Just when everyone was in mixed moods, True Lord Mingxin raised his second finger.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Second point, Zhenjun Ruyi has deduced a set of exercises suitable for the cultivation of human beings in this world."
True Lord Yanyun interjected:
"In order to strengthen the tribe, we also passed down the secret method. This is nothing, right?"
True Lord Mingxin looked at True Lord Yanyun and sighed:
"Details determine success or failure. The advantages of the Suzaku Kingdom are accumulated by relying on these little advantages.
Yes, we have all passed down our traditions in this world, but it is more like casting a net to catch fish than passing it on.
Our method is to pass down the practice. If some people are suitable for this practice, they will be able to get started and grow.
But in fact, the humans in this world have strong bodies and weak souls, so there are only a few who can adapt to our techniques.
In our realm, sects basically accept disciples in this way, so we are all accustomed to this method of inheritance.
But Zhenjun Ruyi is different. Based on the bodies of human beings in this world, while imparting knowledge, he derived a technique called "Contemplation of Three Meridians and Seven Wheels".
Because this set of exercises is tailor-made for the human body in this world, it is suitable for most people in this world.
Imagine that when you are overjoyed to see one person among hundreds or thousands of people who can pass on the technique after all the hard work, there will be hundreds and thousands of times more people in the Suzaku Kingdom also embarking on the path of cultivation.
In three hundred years, I don’t need to elaborate on what kind of advantages the Suzaku Kingdom will gain in this regard, right?”
The hearts of Zhenjun Yanyun and others were shaken violently.
Let’s not talk about how difficult it is to develop martial arts tailored to the human race in this world, but Zhang Ke’s willingness to put in the effort is enough to make everyone admire him.
The 'Controversy between Dao and Demon' lasted for four hundred years, and no one could predict how long it would take to derive a skill.
Perhaps it was as easy as the Suzaku Kingdom, and it only took Zhenjun Ruyi a short time to derive this technique.
But if the derivation does not go smoothly, it may not be possible to deduce it when the war ends.
But Lord Ruyi is willing to do this, and he clearly does not regard this matter as a means of winning the war, but just wants to create a path of cultivation for the human race in this world.
Everyone here is a smart person, so we can naturally guess some of Zhang Ke’s thoughts.
When thinking about the 'golden wheel of merit' that appeared behind Zhang Ke's head when he fought against [Qi Banner], everyone gained a new understanding of Zhang Ke's character.
Zhenjun Mingxin and others calmed down a little, and then raised the third finger.
"If the first two points only reveal the character and strength of Taoist Ruyi, then this third point is his wisdom."
Jin Le Zhenjun said a little impatiently:
"Fellow Taoist Mingxin, don't try to hide yourself anymore. What is this third point?"
True Lord Mingxin smiled ‘haha’.
"We are all practitioners, and we must be familiar with the theory of 'cause and effect'.
Well, I wonder if you have noticed one thing, that is, why the "Xiawan Tribe" was named "Suzaku" after the founding of the country.
In addition, you all should know the name of the person who is most famous in the Suzaku Kingdom’s foreign campaigns today?”
True Monarch Yuanji has been paying attention to the war in the ‘Shanhai Realm’, and when he heard this, he blurted out:
"Now the external commander of the Suzaku Kingdom is Shi Gandang, but the most famous one is the 'Valkyrie' Wanxiang who used the 'Nanming Lihuo' to kill everyone."
As Dong Tianjun, as long as there are no restrictions, they have plenty of ways to explore the situation in all directions.
True Lord Mingxin said ‘hmm’ and slowly said:
"The title of 'Valkyrie' is only a title given by the citizens of the kingdom, and its official title is 'Princess Suzaku'.
Haha, ‘Princess Suzaku’ is everything...
Fellow Taoist Yuanji, when we first broke into the ‘No Phase Peak’, the attendant summoned by True Monarch Ruyi who could control the Nanming Lihuo looked very similar to this ‘Princess Suzaku’?”
"Huh?"
The power of the soul of Lord Dong Tian was so powerful that Lord Yuanji just recalled the petite maid beside Lord Ruyi back then.
Except for the change in body size, her appearance is exactly the same as that of Princess Suzaku.
Following Zhenjun Mingxin's reminder, some Dongzhenzun who had already entered the "Qi Banner" also remembered what they saw decades ago.
A Dong Tianjun said in a calm voice:
"Decades ago, the 'Heaven Demon' Jiuluo drove thirty-six blood flame dragons to wreak havoc on the Suzaku Kingdom. I remember that twenty-eight cities in his country were almost destroyed by the 'blood cloud poisonous miasma' of the blood flame dragons.
In the end, the Suzaku Kingdom used each city as a node and manifested a Suzaku phantom thousands of miles in size before destroying the blood flame dragons with one blow.
Later, later...it turned out to be like this..."
Lord Dong Tianzhen who spoke recalled the scene he saw at the beginning, reacted suddenly, and murmured to himself:
"I see, no wonder [Qi Banner] suddenly released the Golden Cone of the Great Dao to attack the Suzaku phantom...
It turns out that the Suzaku phantom was actually the maid of the original Lord Ruyi."
Jinle Zhenjun silently recited the words 'Princess Suzaku' and 'Suzaku Kingdom' in his heart, two words that were also named 'Suzaku'.
True Lord Mingxin said leisurely:
"The number of the Suzaku Kingdom's foreign military camps is twenty-eight, which implies the seven stars of Suzaku.
Although 'Princess Zhuque' Wan Xiang is currently the commander-in-chief of the 10th North Battalion, with his current status in the hearts of the sergeants in the army, within ten years, these 28 battalions will definitely be his.
Haha, I don’t know how Lord Ruyi managed to reincarnate his maid into this world and gain the name of the royal family.
However, I think that all these phenomena are the most critical chess pieces of True Monarch Ruyi in the 'Dao Demon War'. Once the twenty-eight battalions of soldiers and horses are integrated, it will probably be the time for the Suzaku Kingdom to exert its full strength.
If you say that all of this is a coincidence, I don't believe it. What I prefer to believe is that it all comes from the plan of Taoist Ruyi."
'The inheritance of civilization, the derivation of martial arts and the reincarnation of Suzaku, could that person really plan all of this hundreds of years ago?'
The other Dong Tianjun didn't believe it, but the facts proved everything and they couldn't help but think about it seriously.
Zhenjun Yanyun pondered for a moment and asked:
"Fellow Taoist Mingxin, since we can see this, then the 'Heavenly Demon' must also be able to see the clues.
I heard that they have special abilities and can communicate with each other, does that mean that Jiuluo and Akiluo also know very well about the changes in the Suzaku Kingdom?"
True Lord Mingxin sighed:
"Yes, and this is why I think the Suzaku Kingdom will achieve final victory."
After a brief pause, he continued:
"Whether it is the Luo Kingdom controlled by True Lord Feihong or Lihun Mountain, its advantage lies in its strong individual strength.
But this is also the disadvantage. Once these monomers that are currently formed are severely damaged, it means that the subsequent strength cannot be replenished in a short period of time.
The Wanling Tribe is better, but its multi-racial composition means that it can only be a loose alliance and will never be able to unite.
The Suzaku Kingdom is different. Its advantages lie in its population, its strong national power derived from an orderly inheritance of civilization, and its highly applicable martial arts.
Every time its power expands, the more tribes it conquers, the greater its population base, and the longer it accumulates, the faster it develops and the stronger its strength.
I think the other three parties today are well aware of this.
Therefore, the more time the Suzaku Kingdom is given to develop, the stronger this country will become.
If Jiuluo hadn't commanded the Blood Flame Dragon to sneak attack decades ago, the Suzaku Kingdom's national power would have greatly declined.
It is probably impossible to imagine how powerful the Suzaku Kingdom is today.
Therefore, if you want to win this war, you must defeat the Suzaku Kingdom in the shortest possible time and make it eliminated from this war.
but……"
Zhenjun Mingxin looked at the many caves and Zhenzhen who were listening in rapt attention and said slowly:
“However, the strategy pursued by the Suzaku Kingdom is to ‘build castles and forts and advance steadily’.
Every time it advances a hundred miles, a city will be built as an offensive anchor point.
These cities only play a certain supply role when advancing outwards.
But once you encounter an attack, you can rely on these star-like city fortresses to form layers of buffer barriers.
Any opponent who wants to quickly destroy the Suzaku Kingdom must first face this intertwined and continuous line of defense.
Do you think that when Zhenjun Ruyi formulated this strategy more than three hundred years ago, did he already guess that something like this would happen in the future?"
The last rhetorical question of Ming Xin Zhenjun made many Dong Zhenjun present tremble in their hearts.
If it is true that Lord Mingxin said that Lord Ruyi predicted the war situation hundreds of years before the war started, then it would be too terrifying.
Everyone present was Dong Tianzhen, and Mingxin Zhenjun did not deliberately set up a soundproof barrier when he spoke.
So every word he said was clearly heard by everyone present.
For a moment, the spacious palace was silent, and everyone was frightened by their suspicions.
There are practitioners who are good at deducing heavenly secrets, and they may be able to make layouts that are almost unheard of hundreds of years later.
At least in the realm of Yuanshen, there are very few. The more everyone thinks about it, the more they feel that Zhenjun Ruyi is far-sighted.
After a long time, Jin Lezhenjun said softly:
"Is this why you think the Suzaku Kingdom will win the final victory in this war?"
True Lord Mingxin sighed:
"Isn't this enough?
I discovered that the Suzaku Kingdom has a spiritual practice system called 'Langzhong'.
The power of this system lies in its dedicated ability to save lives and heal the wounded. Its special 'alchemy' system and healing spells will surely shine in this war.
According to my prediction, both the Luo Kingdom, Lihun Mountain and the Wanling Tribe will launch an all-out attack on the Suzaku Kingdom, and there may even be a three-party alliance.
But as long as they cannot destroy the Suzaku Kingdom at once, the Suzaku Kingdom will consume the most elite soldiers and horses of the three parties during this resistance.
With the Suzaku Kingdom's population advantage and war potential, it can completely crush it with dignity."
At this moment, many Dongzhenjun have believed the words of Zhenjun Mingxin.
Although things are unpredictable, there will always be unpredictable things happening.
But the Suzaku Kingdom was built on the general trend, just like a stone ball rolling from top to bottom. There may be some obstacles in the process of rolling down, but the final result will not change in any way.
True Lord Ruyi, this comrade of the divine dragon, only showed his existence in the first thirty years.
Later, he did not even participate in the construction of the Suzaku Kingdom.
But just a small test directly created a powerful force that was about to unify the realm.
Everyone looked down through the [Concord Flag] light curtain with mixed emotions.
At this time, a sea of red shirts was rapidly surging towards the opponent.
Its opponents are tens of thousands of monsters, and the area where the two sides are fighting has been ambushed by the monsters in advance.
The canyon-like terrain allows these tens of thousands of monsters to unleash the vitality of heaven and earth.
Under the command of some demon clan leaders, water waves dozens of feet high surged towards the general post of the 'Suzaku Camp' at the gap in the canyon.
"boom--!"
A golden red flame shot up into the sky and turned into a hundred-foot-sized flaming red bird that charged against the waves.
Behind her, countless soldiers in red uniforms rushed forward steadily, not noticing the huge waves.
"唳——!"
As a crisp bird song sounded, tens of thousands of soldiers raised their long bows in unison.
"fire--!"
"fire--!"
"fire--!"
There were deafening shouts three times in a row, and tens of thousands of soldiers drew their bows and strings at the same time.
"Peng—!"
Thousands of arrows were fired.
A cloud of fire rose directly from the heads of tens of thousands of soldiers and manifested in mid-air into the phantom of a thousands-foot-sized red bird.
This phantom of the Suzaku went straight towards the surging peak of the huge wave.
In just a blink of an eye, the two collided.
"boom--!"
There was another huge roar, and the surging waves were directly burned through the Nanmingli Fire.
The huge Suzaku phantom kept moving forward in the direction of the huge waves.
The water waves are boiled, dried and vaporized by the flames!
Countless monsters were turned into ashes in the golden red flames.
Tens of thousands of soldiers kept moving forward steadily, arranging their bows and firing arrows.
All the sergeants of the ‘Suzaku Camp’ are those who have awakened the power of ‘Nanming Lihuo’.
Although the 'Nanming Lihuo' they mastered varies greatly, the powerful ones can vaporize a pool of water in an instant, while the weak ones cannot even light a piece of wood.
However, after being guided by all phenomena, he was able to gather everyone's power to form a fire storage array.
As long as you have the power of 'Nan Ming Li Huo', no matter how strong or weak you are, you can borrow the power of the magic circle.
As tens of thousands of soldiers kept moving forward, setting up their bows and shooting arrows, clouds of golden and red fire rushed towards the huge waves.
The huge waves caused by tens of thousands of monsters were so huge, and they took advantage of the terrain to form a surging current, but they were constantly vaporized in the continuous charge of fire clouds.
And at the very front of the huge wave, a figure shining with golden-red flames stood up like a wall.
Step on the fire and stop the waves!
Wanxiang repeated his toughness again and again.
In every battle, you must be the first to advance, never to retreat!
Behind him, the soldiers in red shirts were advancing rapidly like a red torrent.
Seen from a distance, it looks like a huge wave constantly retreating like an ebbing tide.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the waves stirred by tens of thousands of monsters were washed away, and countless monsters were either dead or injured and fled in all directions.
Looking at the looming and leering creatures sweeping past with a torrent of red, the many cave gods in [Qi Banner] couldn't help but secretly feel horrified.
