1047: Chapter 302: The Advancing Empress_2 1047: Chapter 302: The Advancing Empress_2 The city lord led the army, and the military advisor followed, showing Changfeng City’s determination.
This was about moving the capital to Changge City—they wouldn’t rest until their goal was achieved!
In reality, Ya Ya’s Changfeng City wasn’t particularly aggressive, but Changge City was foolishly impulsive.
The city lord’s foolish son actually thought of kidnapping Green Snake to use as a bargaining chip in negotiations, aiming to force Ya Ya out of the Hexi Forest, which supplied Wind Light Wood, essential for building flying boats.
If it had merely been a thought, it would have ended there, but three days prior, while Ya Ya was inspecting his territory and not in the city, there was no one in Xuanzhen View, and even the cultivators from all directions were absent, that guy succeeded in his scheme.
They kidnapped Green Snake and had flown three thousand miles before being caught and killed by the Ancient Demon Guardian.
Such an incident, the city lord and the military advisor could endure, but the generals couldn’t!
It was an enormous humiliation!
Changge City wanted our military advisor, did they?
Well then, we’d deliver him personally!
Stepping onto the city walls, taking the city, henceforth the two families were inseparable!
After Ya Ya finished rallying the troops, she leaped onto a Barbarian Bull’s back, her golden hammer sparking with electric light, and struck upwards, shattering the clouds.
“Generals, to battle!”
“To battle!”
“Fight!”
“Fight!”
A tsunami-like roar ascended to the heavens.
The flying boats set sail, and exotic beasts galloped.
The army suddenly marched out.
In a grand spectacle, they headed toward Changge City, the murderous aura steaming, and even the clouds in the sky were dispersed by the rising ferocious energy, unable to condense for a long time.
Watching the departing troops, Green Thunder sighed, “Little Girl, you’ve learned some tricks…”
She used to be such a good kid, only ever bothering him to go shrimp fishing.
Now she’s learned scheming.
Especially after the end of the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky, who knows what the little girl has gone through inside; she woke up after two or three years.
Not to mention she’d grown two inches taller, her mind had also sharpened.
Forget about Changge City—those foolish sons from the landlord’s family, as well as the brains dodging people in the city to kidnap Green Snake.
That was an insult to the intelligence of all Changfeng City.
Gu Luo chuckled, “Being bad is better than being good.”
This kind of ‘bad’ meant no longer being bullied.
Even the protection of Dragon Turtle isn’t foolproof; even Red Ancestor had half his body destroyed, even Wasteland Ancestor might fall…
This was the first time since their Proof of Dragon Turtle that they truly witnessed a fall of a Dragon Turtle.
Bai Ling doesn’t count; Bai Ling was just having too much fun.
“Wasteland Ancestor…” Green Thunder’s face darkened again: “What about Su He?”
He had mentioned Su He several times these past days.
That guy could travel through time, and if he could return before Wasteland Ancestor’s fall, there might be a way to salvage it!
But no one knew where Su He had gone; heaven and earth were vast and unsearchable.
Even Thai Zu was nowhere to be seen.
When had Turtle Kid become so mysterious, disappearing along with Thai Zu?
According to the Four Spirits Divine God Beast, the higher the Tao Cultivation, the more mysterious.
But wasn’t Turtle Kid still far from reaching that level?
…
Seventy-three thousand years ago, in Yunmeng Ze.
Su He slowly closed his eyes.
The Pill Medicine from Ji Feixue was excellent, clearing all negative statuses from his body.
But there was a sense of melancholy and loss.
He could no longer frivolously tease the fairies…
People are often like this, once sober, the very things they most want to do, they can’t.
With each inhalation and exhalation, True Martial Divine God Card in his Intention Orifice continually flowed out the power of Xuan Wu’s stars.
This was now the most crucial support for Su He’s cultivation.
With the power of the stars flowing, his body gleamed with starlight, as if he were placed within the Star Sea.
Exhale!
Inhale!
The cultivation technique operated, and he could sense that Xuan Wu was improving every moment.
This continuous progress was intoxicating.
The toad had already been summoned back and was spreading source stones into the inner world.
Su He’s inner world had always been in a state of free growth, absorbing and growing automatically, consuming the most source stones and developing into the wildest forms.
At this moment, the consumption of source stones continued like flowing water.
Yet, the entire inner world had turned into a vista of splendid colors with tall trees, green grass, eagles soaring high, and a myriad of beasts competing.
The life force of all living creatures was gathering incessantly.
In the netherworld, Yi River was now overwhelmed with work.
The more living creatures there were, the more frequent life and death occurred, the more reincarnations took place, and the greater the pressure on the netherworld.
At this moment, the ghost general had completely turned into Yi River’s errand runner, moving mountains, dredging floods, and planning the souls of the deceased.
The ghost general was tirelessly happy, involving himself eagerly in anything beneficial to the Venerable Lord.
Su He’s consciousness settled into the Intention Orifice, looking towards the Bright Mirror.
Status: Healthy, Clear-minded
Boundary Status: Opening Heaven Three-fold (18%), Xuan Wu (Proof of the Tao)
Human Forms: White Tiger (0), Azure Dragon (0)
The progress of the human forms of Xuan Wu and Vermilion Bird had disappeared.
It was also understandable, Xuan Wu obviously needed no explanation, and Vermilion Bird, to some extent, had also completed its transformation into a human form.
On the sacred beast crystal stone, Vermilion Bird had fully communicated with the central human form, it was only because Su He had not yet condensed Vermilion Bird, and only Peacock couldn’t provide the human form occasionally.
As long as Su He proved the Vermilion Bird, the human form’s duration would double instantly.
The Boundary Status of Opening Heaven Three-fold had already reached 18%, and now remained constant; as long as there were no external influences, Su He could advance 1% each month, and it would take another seven or eight years to reach the limit.
However, hexagrams were far from enough, even if the inner world reached its limit, it wouldn’t be possible to immediately open the Four-fold Heavens.
Just like ordinary divine beasts, consolidating the inner world was easy, but understanding the Great Tao and condensing a divine artifact for opening the heaven was as difficult as reaching the sky.
Too many divine beasts had solidified their inner worlds to the limit within thousands of years, but it took tens of thousands of years to condense a divine artifact for opening the heaven.
Su He now only had Ming Yi and a large livestock, still far from gathering the perfect set.
Having already opened the Three-fold Heaven, and with rich experience, Su He faintly estimated how many hexagrams would be needed to open the Four-fold Heavens.
At least seven, at most nine.
Su He was still far from enough.
During this period, waiting for the solar eclipse to come, Su He couldn’t afford distractions, he could only return to the real world, and then visit various clans for hexagrams.
Time passed day by day, turning into more than a month in a blink, except for Ji Feixue truly entering seclusion, everything was peaceful.
Cultivation was always the calmest.
At this moment, Su He’s Netherworld White Tiger emerged from his body, clad in impressive armor, leisurely strolling in the cave dwelling.
Its eyes flickered with Su He’s gaze, having completely transformed into Su He’s likeness.
These days, Su He increasingly felt something.
His third body might be slightly different from what he had imagined.
It wouldn’t be like Vermilion Bird Body, first condensing the Peacock and then progressively proving the Vermilion Bird.
The third body was likely to be the White Tiger directly.
Not a divine beast White Tiger but a sacred beast.
This Netherworld White Tiger body was far from being a mere divine beast, inherently carrying the power of the stars, bearing more resemblance to the Western White Tiger.
Perhaps this was the effect that Baiyin and Tan Tai had planned for a long time to achieve?
If it was just an ordinary White Tiger, would they need to make such a long effort?
That would be too much of a drop from the Immortal Sovereign’s stature.
With this thought, the Tian Nu Clan’s matter was far from over, the star had not yet been sent into the Undamaged Forbidden Land; it was unacceptable for him to just leave when the ten-year period was up, leaving this matter to Ji Feixue.
That would be the last resort, not to be used unless absolutely necessary.
Su He looked up in the direction of the Tian Nu Clan, his brow furrowed, yet unsure of what to do.
…
Tian Nu Clan.
The barrier of the Undamaged Boundary Barrier had been completely opened, from the outside, the entire barrier was emitting a tan glow, wrapping the Undamaged Realm tightly.
But such a barrier, as Wangjun had hoped, did not protect the Undamaged Realm for millions of years.
At this moment, a huge hole the size of a mountain was on the barrier, made by a Buddha bead.
A little novice monk, stepping on a blue light, entered through the hole, looking at Wangjun and smiling slightly: “Fellow Daoist, we meet again.”
