Chapter 223

Wei Yuan had absolutely no idea what the situation was like in the Great Wilderness and Great Qin now.

His path had been a desperate struggle and a constant battle. His road was a solo journey with a sword, a bloody battle filled with carnage.

A single slip could mean death.

Along the way, he brought Fan Lin, Master, and the Tongtian Daoist (who had nowhere else to go for the time being and had to follow him). First, they went to Chaoge City, after all, it had the most advanced body repair methods. Then, when he introduced the Master next to him to the young man, Wei Yuan successfully saw a look of bewilderment on the face of the usually calm young man.

For the young Marquis Wu, the Master was also an absolute legendary figure.

However, since even the First Emperor had already appeared, seeing the Master did not seem so unbelievable.

So, he went to find yanghun wood (soul-nurturing wood) to stabilize the Master's soul, and then used the method he had previously used to reshape the body for Dayi, first creating a usable body for the Master. Naturally, this body could not match the original body strength of the Master, but at least it provided a place to house the soul, which could reduce unnecessary soul damage.

"However, there seem to be some places here that I'm not very familiar with."

While waiting for the Master's body to take shape, Wei Yuan looked around.

His divine sense was so powerful that few in the Clear and浊 worlds could compare, so he easily noticed the changes here.

The most obvious of these was the aura of the power of time.

The young Marquis Wu gently waved his feather fan and said softly:

"Actually, it's just a little research. After all, the human world is the foundation. So many humans need medicinal pills for cultivation, as well as mass-produced magical artifacts, and some other plans that must be taken out. Also, we have captured creatures from the Turbid World before, and we are trying to deconstruct the differences between these Turbid World auras and Clear World auras here."

"Of course, there are also necessary weapons."

"Necessary?"

Wei Yuan was suspicious.

The young Marquis Wu smiled and said, "Yes, it's just a little excessive at most."

"I promise, it's really just a little bit."

"However, the Master also said that those who are engaged in literary pursuits must have military preparations."

"In other words, it is not enough to have a brilliant culture, there must also be sufficient military preparations to protect this brilliant culture, so that the country and civilization can stand in the world. I am just following the ancient teachings of Confucianism, grasping both with both hands, and making both hands strong."

The young Marquis Wu directly quoted the Master's words.

These words were naturally said and done by the Master.

The *Guliang Zhuan* (*Guliang Commentary on the Spring and Autumn Annals*, one of the Three Commentaries on the Spring and Autumn Annals) recorded that the powerful state of Qi and the state of Lu held talks.

Qi wanted to kidnap Duke Ding, but Confucius rebuked them with *li* (rites, rituals). The ruler of Qi was awed and established a covenant.

This was recorded in history. The Master's *li* was so powerful that even when facing the strong state of Qi while residing in the weak state of Lu, the other side had to be in awe. Not only were they in awe, but they also made peace on the spot. Not only did they make a peace covenant, but they also directly returned Guo, Guan, Guiyin and other places that they had originally occupied to the state of Lu as an apology.

No one knows what kind of *li* shock the ruler of Qi experienced at that time.

And there has never been such a tough *li* in history.

The young Marquis Wu used these words to muddle through, and then said:

"But speaking of which, Liang has already given the wedding invitation to General Bai Qi and the First Emperor."

"If they can spare the time, they should also come in person."

"At that time, A-Yuan, you have to think about how to entertain them."

Wei Yuan was stunned.

The First Emperor...

...

The huge demon god knelt on the ground, even its head was bound by those chains, and then pressed heavily on the ground. The fishy smell of the soil rushed to its face, and the surrounding roars were almost connected into a huge wave, which made this god feel an unprecedented sense of shame and anger!

Mere humans!

Mere humans! In the past, these were just ant-like existences.

They could be crushed and killed with a wave of their hand, and were not even worthy of attention. Now they were actually humiliating me like this!

A sense of absurdity always lingered in his heart. It was the sense of superiority of overlooking the birth, aging, sickness, and death of mortals from a high position. In the end, he was pulled down and forced to look at these people standing in the dust at the same level, and even had to kneel before these ants. This huge sense of gap aroused unwillingness and anger.

He violently shook his arms, trying to burst out with power again, but the mecha warriors who were being driven directly put huge chains on his body. The violent spiritual power erupted in a way that did not count the cost. These were newly extracted chains, which directly suppressed this former god.

"You!!!"

A tall warrior strode over.

As this god roared, he raised his hand and directly stuffed his arm into its mouth, and then a delicate and small piece of equipment was directly stuffed into its abdomen. Then, a huge nuclear explosion directly erupted in the body of this ferocious god. It had already experienced a fierce battle before, and now it was a human nuclear explosion erupting internally.

Even a god felt an unprecedented huge pain in this attack.

His face was ferocious, and his eyes were bloodshot.

But he fell to the ground in pain, unable to struggle anymore.

The First Emperor said calmly: "You just ate a lot of money."

That small nuclear explosion gathered new technology and transcendent systems. Strictly speaking, it should belong to a magical artifact.

This kind of prototype is generally very expensive.

The god who had a nuclear explosion in his mouth only felt pain in his internal organs and struggled to raise his head, suddenly roared, and the final power of authority erupted. A mountain appeared out of thin air in the void, huge and incomparable, slowly rotating, stirring up storms and lightning, and smashed down fiercely.

A new roar appeared in the direction of Great Qin. Huge golden men, hundreds of meters high, appeared, their faces cold and firm, their steps seemed to shake the earth. There were as many as twelve of them, and then they raised their hands, holding huge and heavy Great Qin battle halberds, and roared in a long voice: "Defend!"

"Defend!"

"Defend!!!"

One after another, huge golden men, as if bathed in golden fire, forcibly wielded their battle halberds, and then supported the mountain that was smashing down. Then, countless terrifying streamers rose from the Great Qin battle formation, heavily bombarding the mountain. This mountain was not a physical entity, but represented the concept of that mountain appearing here.

The ferocious god watched his mountain being torn apart by the human battle formation, and finally turned into streamers and disappeared into the heaven and earth.

The roaring magic streamers, and the roars of the Great Qin iron cavalry.

Accompanied by the heavy sound of the twelve golden men retracting their weapons.

Wearing black clothes, the First Emperor, looking about twenty years old, stood calmly with his sword, his clothes fluttering slightly. Behind him were the huge golden men standing tall, and the Great Qin iron army with a stern battle formation and a cloud of baleful aura, silent and solemn, but set off the youth holding the sword in front like a god walking on the earth, with a majestic and heavy aura.

Even the gods who were still unwilling and angry were stunned in their hearts for a moment.

After that, someone naturally announced the collected crimes of this god. This was to rectify the morale of the army and the hearts of the people. After possessing powerful power, if there was no restraint, they would be controlled by the power, and instead turn into the things they had originally killed and conquered. So this step could not be omitted.

Perhaps these gods had no intention of concealing what they had done at all, and these things were very simple to collect.

But although it was simple to collect, the quantity was extremely large, extremely large.

Some of the crimes were so cruel that even the Great Qin warriors who had experienced many battles changed their expressions.

Finally, after the military judge reported the crimes of this god, he bowed and said solemnly: "According to the laws of Great Qin, according to the crimes he committed, he should be subjected to the punishment of being torn apart by five horses, his true spirit annihilated, and he will never be restored, to serve as an example!"

"He deserves to be killed!"

The god's face changed drastically, and he still had some illusions in his heart.

He thought that they would not dare to kill him after all, but would bring him back and hand him back to the Great Wilderness later.

But now it seemed that they were going to kill him?!

Mere mortals, actually want to judge a god!

The god felt panic and fear, and when he saw the humans pulling out a huge machine hundreds of meters high, and saw the twelve golden men each holding weapons, chains, and shackles, walking towards him, there was no doubt that they were planning to directly abolish his cultivation and Dao, and then use those five huge, super-giant machines with a mechanical aesthetic and extremely obvious spiritual energy flowing [Five Horses], to directly dismember him.

Death is not enough, but also to be subjected to such humiliation?!

The god was frightened in his heart. Just as he was being escorted, he suddenly broke free from the chains, and actually had some remaining power. Then, he instantly threw out a jade talisman in his hand, knelt down to the sky, and said: "Heavenly Emperor!!!"

"Ant-like mortals, disrespect the divine decree!"

"I implore the Heavenly Emperor to descend and punish them!"

"To rectify the energy of heaven and earth!"

"I beseech the Heavenly Emperor, descend! Descend!"

The god Fengshan shouted, his expression frantic. After all, in the Great Wilderness, the name of the Heavenly Emperor was still extremely prosperous. There was a burst of commotion around, but the Heavenly Emperor did not respond. Fengshan's expression froze, and then he heard the clear sound of a long sword being drawn from its scabbard. The next moment, the Tai'a Sword slashed across his throat.

The huge head of the demon god was blown away with a spurt of blood.

Fengshan looked incredulously at the emperor who drew his sword, and saw the latter reach out and pick up the jade talisman, and said: "I also want to see the Heavenly Emperor." He sacrificed the jade talisman as the god had done before, and then, the jade talisman that was useless in the hands of the god Fengshan suddenly lit up, and then turned into a majestic spiritual light, soaring into the sky.

The last consciousness of the god Fengshan was filled with unwillingness and disbelief.

The First Emperor held the jade talisman for offering sacrifices to the heavens in his hand, shook his hand and threw the divine blood on the Tai'a sword on the ground, and then returned the sword to its scabbard. The jade talisman transmitted the message to the Heavenly Emperor. In the void, the clouds rolled, and the stars and all phenomena slowly flowed, and then seemed to transform into a man wearing ordinary clothes with a clear and calm temperament.

The ancient Heavenly Emperor recorded in the *Classic of Mountains and Seas* came from the sky.

The majestic power, even the Great Qin Iron Army felt a kind of fear rising from their blood. All beings bowed their heads, subconsciously lowered their heads, and only two men with different temperaments but strangely similar remained peacefully raising their eyes in the sky and on the earth.

The emperor of the human world laughed loudly: "Heavenly Emperor?"

"Today, I will ask the heavens—"

He held the hilt of the Tai'a sword in one hand and said loudly:

"I ask, what is the Dao of Heaven!"

"I ask, do you know the Dao of Man?!"
