Chapter 1: The Glory of Great Xia

History is always strikingly similar, when the Bactria Dynasty was founded for 800 years, the four Yi guests served, and all the states came to the dynasty, and history called that year the glory of Bactria in history.

In the land of Great Xia, the northwest is almost dry all year round, the wind and sand run parallel with the desert, and there is always a cold wind on the wasteland, cutting the whole land like a knife.

It's just that the recent celestial phenomena are always a little abnormal, a rare rainstorm swept the entire Ningcheng, and the dark clouds in the sky shrouded the four corners of the heavens and the earth.

In the midst of this thunderstorm, there was a huge steel ship looming, swimming above the thunder pool, and there was a huge dragon head standing on the bow of the giant ship, with a crazy killing intent in his eyes.

The giant ship has three floors, and on the towering mast hangs a huge sail, on which is written a large word - Summer. The giant ship was surrounded by huge formations, making the entire giant ship like a vortex continuously absorbing a large amount of vitality from the void.

This is the current top-level warship-level warship of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The warships of the Great Xia Dynasty can only be mobilized by the military department and the valves, and according to the current sphere of influence of the Great Xia Dynasty, the northwest basically belongs to the forces of the Yuwen valve.

There is one of the national policies of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the royal family shares the world with various families. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, after 800 years of development, in addition to the royal family, each family finally formed four valves, the upper grade nine families, the middle grade nineteen families and the lower grade ninety-nine families. This one hundred and thirty-one family was the cornerstone of the rule of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Among them, the four valves are divided into four towns, the northwest is guarded by the Yuwen valve, the southeast is guarded by the Jiang valve, the southwest is the Zhao valve, and the northeast is guarded by the Li valve. The rest of the upper, middle and lower grade families all served in the six departments.

The valve is not allowed to enter the six departments, and the family is not allowed to accumulate troops, which is also one of the founding policies of the Great Xia Dynasty, through the mutual restraint of military power and political power, the formation of the dynasty's political balance.

When the valve is divided into four directions, it can raise an army, and the imperial court border army and the local garrison form three major military forces, the border army is directly under the jurisdiction of the royal family, and the local garrison is under the jurisdiction of the military department.

"Lord Cao, haven't you arrived yet?"

"Back to the world, this place is already the scope of Ningcheng, Ningcheng is the second largest city of Yuwen Valve, it is less than a thousand miles away from the destination of this trip, according to the normal distance, it should be less than a day to enter the Tianping Mountain Range, the prince needs to rest in Ningcheng for a while?"

On the third floor of the giant ship, a middle-aged man in a blue robe bowed slightly to a young man in brocade and said.

The brocade-clothed young man frowned: "No need, the people of Yuwen Valve don't know a little bit of fun, what other good places can Ningcheng go?" ”

"Yes. The middle-aged man in the green robe nodded yes, and whispered to the entourage standing beside him: "The battleship magic circle is fully open, and you must rush to the Tianping Mountain Range today." ”

The two were silent for a moment, and Lord Cao said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness, this time the Pingtian Mountain Range is abnormal, there is a big difference, this mountain range has been rumored to be the tomb of the Emperor of the previous dynasty since the founding of the country, but for hundreds of years, countless people have explored here to no avail. This great change has attracted the attention and exploration of all forces in the dynasty, and the prince asked me to come with the prince, which had the intention of exploring first. And this time brought together the heroes of the valve family, the Pingtian Mountain Range has its own fate, the prince must also have the meaning of letting the prince and the valve heroes communicate and learn, I hope that the prince should take the big thing first, and must not fight with the rest of the people. ”

The young man in brocade is the son of King Wuyang, the leader of the three generations of the royal family. When today's son is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Great Xia Dynasty has experienced kings such as Taizu, Taizong, and Emperor Wu since the founding of the country, and it has been the ninth dynasty since the son of today ascended the throne.

After nine dynasties, the Great Xia Dynasty appeared to be more prosperous, the royal family was full of talents, and the major families were also endless.

King Wuyang is the third son of the Son of Heaven, the second generation of princes is the most outstanding in force, and he is the popular choice of the prince, but when today's prince is in the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes are only secretly competing, and they dare not put it on the bright side.

It's just that the third generation of the prince is different, usually the sons of the royal family are already competing with each other, and the prince of Wuyang is one of the most powerful people in the limelight, plus he is indeed talented, since he was enlightened since childhood, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, how can the children of ordinary families get into his eyes, what can make him look at it is nothing more than a few valve children and the Tianjiao in his own royal family. Even if it is the top nine families, although they are not disdainful, they don't think it's a big deal.

On weekdays, these open and secret battles are forgotten, but this trip is very important, the middle-aged man in the green shirt was entrusted by the king of Wuyang, on the one hand, he came to investigate the situation first, and on the other hand, he also had the intention of letting his son Li Jichang go out to practice.

The relationship between the royal family and the valve and the family is inextricably linked, not a simple sentence that the royal family and the family share the world can be interpreted clearly, at the beginning of the country, the upper grade family twenty-one, the middle family thirty-three, the lower family ninety-nine, in addition to the four valves unchanged, the rest of the upper, middle and lower grade families have changed, even if the number of the lower grade family has not changed, its members are not static.

Now the royal family is prosperous, when today's Zihao Emperor is even more ancient and golden, known as the first person after Taizu, the Great Xia Dynasty is even more prosperous, in addition to the four valves, the rest of the major families have the intention of dying down, no wonder Li Jichang does not take the children of the family very seriously.

"This trip into the mountain, although all forces gathered, but into my eyes, less than ten of them, the rest are busy people, what a little bit of worry, Lord Cao rest assured, although Ji Chang is reckless, but will not be in vain for the sake of a momentary will. Moreover, before leaving, the father also explained that the children of the family should be as good as possible if they can make good friends. ”

Li Jichang said softly.

"The son of the world said this very good. Lord Cao nodded firmly, his eyes full of appreciation.

Lord Cao's name is Cao Rong, and he is a son of the Cao family in the ninth family of Shangpin. Although Emperor Hao is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, the emperors of the Li Dynasty are not known for their high longevity, almost two hundred years old, and belong to the short-lived life among the practitioners. Now that the family is in decline, the Cao family is one of the nine families of the top grade, and has been pursuing the promotion valve for many years, so that the outstanding children of the family can be loyal to the king of Wuyang.

This is also the normal state of the family's survival, choosing the bets that are important to them among the princes, in order to be able to develop in the next few decades, and the Cao family chose King Wuyang this time.

Cao Rong has been in the Wuyang palace for 20 years, and Li Jichang is half a minister and half a teacher, although Li Daochang is usually stubborn, but when necessary, he can recognize the overall situation, and he is quite relieved.

The giant ship drove in the thunderstorm for a while, and finally gradually sailed out of the thunderstorm area, the sky gradually cleared, and it was almost evening at this time, and the light shone brightly, and the giant ship was even more powerful and domineering.

Li Jichang stood up and said with a smile: "Lord Cao, go out and have a look?"

As he spoke, he stepped out of the three-story cabin and into the deck.

Cao Rong followed out, looking at the magnificent rivers and mountains below, he couldn't help but stir in his heart, and let out a clear roar.

"In the distance, is Lord Cao under the command of King Wuyang?" asked in a voice, although there was some distance, the voice was condensed but not dispersed, which showed that the cultivation of the person who spoke must not be weak.

The two of them looked at each other, only to see another warship coming vaguely, and the ship came so fast, only for a moment, it was much closer, and at this time they saw the true face of the warship.

This battleship is much smaller than ordinary Warlord-class warships, and it only has one cabin, but there are many more magic circles suspended around it than ordinary warships. There were also two men standing at the bow of the boat, both in black suits.

Cao Rong and Li Jichang glanced at each other, and they both said in their hearts that this ship was fast, but it was not a common warship model in the army, and their eyes flashed with surprise.

The person who came seemed to know what the two of them were thinking, and one of the men spoke: "In Xia Yuwen injury, this is the clan brother Yuwen Luo, this is my Yuwen Valve's new warship, the combat power is average, it can be better than the speed, and it is just right for communication and alarm." ”

Yuwen paused and said: "Recently, there have been many visions in the Pingtian Mountain Range, heroes from all sides have gathered, and my two brothers have come to greet Lord Cao on the order of the lord. ”

He spoke to Cao Rong twice, never mentioning Li Jichang, the prince of Wuyang, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.

Cao Rong smiled faintly and said: "Although I have heard that Yuwen has a rough style, I don't think so. ”

Yuwen laughed and said: "Lord Cao laughed, I respect the strong in the Yuwen Valve, Lord Cao is the cultivation of the Holy Realm, and he is the number one master of the Wuyang Palace, Yuwen is sad and admires it tightly, and he just wants to see Lord Cao as soon as possible along the way, so that he ignores the prince and hopes to forgive his sins." ”

Cao Rong secretly screamed in his heart, Yuwen Valve has always been rough and direct, and he is the most tough and belligerent among the four valves, but he didn't expect that this Yuwen Hurt was not weaker than the Kyoto families, and from just now to now, Yuwen Hurt was talking, but Cao Rong did not ignore Yuwen Luo.

Yuwen hurt the sound into a bundle, condensed but not dispersed, obviously cultivated well, although Yuwen Luo did not say a word, but the breath of the whole body was hidden, although standing aside, but Cao Rong always felt that there was no qi traction, so that he did not dare to relax easily.

His cultivation has reached the Holy Realm, but he can still feel the threat, it can be seen that the two of them are not good, and Yuwen Luo is even more likely to have reached the Holy Realm, but the two of them are not among the famous masters known to outsiders, and the strength of Yuwen Valve should be reestimated.

Thinking of this, Cao Rong didn't care, and said flatly: "You're welcome. I'm in a hurry, is Brother Yuwen going all the way?"

That's exactly what I mean. Yuwen didn't refuse, jumped up under his feet, and landed on the bow of Cao Rong's battleship with Yuwen Luo.

At the same time, somewhere in the Pingtian Mountains, there was a lush forest, and at the end of the woods, there was an open valley, the valley was very good, the valley was full of birds and flowers, and all kinds of precious elixirs grew in patches, and they were dense and mysterious.

The Pingtian Mountain Range spans hundreds of thousands of miles, it is the first mountain range in the northwest, known as the level with the sky, since ancient dynasties are all from the east of the Pingtian Mountain Range, the west of the mountain range is said to be a barren land, it is said that there are other civilizations, but the entire Pingtian Mountain Range is too big and too high, few people can cross such a large mountain range, even if there are many cultivators.

There are very few people who can cross the Pingtian Mountain Range in the record, and they are all famous and powerful people in history, but there are few words about the west of the Pingtian Mountain Range, which also adds a lot of mystery to this mountain range.

There is little water in the northwest, because the water vapor is blocked by the mountains, but the mountains are different in ecology, all kinds of creatures, all kinds of secret places, and because of this, although it is the legendary tomb of the emperor, it is also a paradise for all kinds of adventurers.

Because of the unique topography, there are many fierce beasts in the mountains, and ordinary cultivators can only enter the mountains for a few thousand miles, and those who can go deep into the mountains must at least cultivate in the holy realm.

It's just that when a cultivator enters the holy realm, what can improve his cultivation is no longer an ordinary elixir, except for the occasional family elders looking for elixir for their sons and nephews, all kinds of valleys have become paradises, and few people disturb them.

Moreover, there are many fierce places in the Pingtian Mountain Range, even the cultivation of the Holy Realm is at risk of falling, and for thousands of years, the depths of the mountain range have gradually become a forbidden place for all forces.

At this time, in the depths of this valley, there is a cliff, between the cliffs, a person's head rises from the hard stone, like a burrowing gopher, the man drilled out while leaning out, while complaining: "What the hell is this place, it's obviously a big cave, I've been tossing here for more than half a year and still haven't found anything, the whole mountain is about to be hollowed out by me, where is it?"

Before the words fell, he only heard a ghostly voice coming from his ears, and then, an endless magic circle suddenly appeared in the sky, and a huge light fell from the sky and fell on his body.

I only heard the Sanskrit sound for a while, the fairy sound for a while, and the magic sound for a while, the heaven and earth seemed to be in the world of gods and demons, and in the blink of an eye, I stepped into another world.

"Come to my door, life or death!"

There seemed to be a huge passage opening on this light, and after the light shone to the fullest, the person disappeared, and only a loud shout remained between heaven and earth: "Damn!"

Rumble!

A thunderclap fell from the sky, and it split here, directly overturning the mountains and forests, cracking the cliffs, and slowly rising a stone peak from it, and when the stone peak rose, the whole valley seemed to fall from spring to winter at once.

Call!

Where the wind falls, the blooming petals fall one after another, the trees are broken, and the rare birds and beasts that have time to escape in the future also seem to have been drained of their essence, and the death, withering, and decay visible to the naked eye are only the white bones of the forest in the blink of an eye.

The pinnacle grew bigger and bigger, revealing a larger mountain below, and the mountain seemed to be like a bulge, windward longer, and after a while, it grew into a huge mountain, and if you look at it from afar, it really looks like an unimaginable giant tomb.

The entire valley has been completely covered by the giant tomb, only to hear a boom, as if something has been opened, the huge tomb emitted bursts of yin wind and demonic mist, and in a moment it has completely enveloped the entire mountain.

If you look closely, you can't see what exists inside, the whole mountain is wrapped in mist, and you can only feel the yin qi of the forest during the period, and there seems to be something amazing walking in it.

In a mysterious place in the Pingtian Mountains, there was a huge palace, the palace was divided into nine floors, and in the highest ninth layer, a man sat with his eyes closed, his whole body was crawling with spider silk, and he seemed to have no life.

However, the man seemed to feel something, and his whole body shook slightly, glowing with a faint golden light, and he opened his mouth and said, "My ancestor inherited and was born, and the Holy Son came out of the mountain." ”

In the far east, there is a big hall, in the big hall is an old Taoist open altar to preach, under the main hall, there are hundreds of thousands of Taoist priests sitting cross-legged, the old Taoist suddenly stopped, looked at the northwest land, and muttered in a voice that he could only hear: "Eight hundred years." ”

In the far north, there is a big snow mountain, which is the holy land of the grassland people, and it is said that the gods of this world live on the big snow mountain. At this moment, the deity sitting on the highest altar suddenly opened his eyes and sent down an oracle. A young man with a beard on his face laughed and headed west from the Great Snow Mountain.

In an unknown col of the Great Xia Dynasty, there was a dilapidated old temple, and a young monk walked out at this time.

Less than 10,000 miles away from the Pingtian Mountain Range, there is a big city, which is the ancestral land of Yuwen Valve, and a man has his back to the ancestral hall and commands: "The Tomb of the Emperor You, Yuwen Valve is prosperous, and Wushuang is out of the customs." ”

In the imperial court, Emperor Hao raised his head and looked in the other direction of the Pingtian Mountain Range, his gaze seemed to be able to pass through countless spaces and distances, and he said lightly: "Lingshan!"
