Chapter 36: The Distant Star Rises
In the vicinity of the Far East Sea of Daye, a series of ships are fighting in the kettle, one fleet hangs the black water flag, which is the symbol of Kashima Shintosai, and around the first ship, there is a gray Kashima country ship flag. The two sides either fought in close combat, or collided on the side, and between the ships swimming and biting, rockets flew one after another, with a swirling pale cyan smoke, filling the sea sky.
The border sea line battles between Kashima Shintosai and Kashima have almost always happened, but this time it was quite fierce for the first time, and it was rare for the fleet of the Kashima country to encounter such strong resistance from the Oye Boat Division, which at this time was frantically counterattacking the invasion of these border navies with a ship that was one size smaller than the Great Ye Boat Division.
The same scene is happening in many parts of the sea border.
This was a situation that Shinto Sai and Kashima did not expect, originally thinking that since the birth of Shinto Saisai Lord Lei Donglai, the heavy blow to Daye was enough to make them depressed, and Kashima Province could take the opportunity to invade several islands and reefs that were disputed by the two countries. Who knew that the morale of the Great Ye Boat Master not only did not fall to the point of vulnerability, but surpassed the previous fearlessness of death, which made several sea line attacks of Shinto Sai fall into a stalemate, which shocked Shinto Sainai and the lord of Kashima Country.
At this time, the more distant King of Daye went to Lin City. In the royal court, a state agenda under the auspices of the Emperor Dezhao is underway. But everyone in the meeting could see that their brows were tightly locked, and the sky outside was still clear and blue, but under the vast background, it was inevitable that there was a bit of urgency in the general situation.
Shinto Zhai and Kashima Navy invaded the territory, and the Daye Boat Division collectively gave a death order to attack, and now the periphery of the sea border line is in a mess, although the Daye Navy has taken out the morale of the nest for many years, but after all, in terms of shipbuilding level, and even geographical conditions, it is not good for the Daye Boat Division, although it has a slight advantage, but the price paid behind maintaining these results can still make these people in the court of Daye frown.
Although Lei Donglai claimed to have killed Yu Xiaoxiao and Master Hanzang, and Yang Ze was also killed in the storm, but so far, there has been no credible evidence, at most it is a psychological tactic to boost the morale of Kashima and Shintosai. Our intelligence agency has ample evidence that Shinto Zhai has sent cultivators to the earth sea, not only that, but the two major powers of Liushuang and Anhui Jin, as well as some surrounding forces, have also intervened in the earth and sea, which is enough to show that after the interception, it is very likely that there are survivors scattered among the three people in the earth sea. In a word, we have reached the point where we must expand the operation of the earth and sea, and if we really let the other side find the survivors first, it will be a disastrous blow to my Daye's prestige. The arrogance of the adversary will no longer be restrained. ”
The person who spoke was Cardinal Lu, who participated in the politics of the kingdom, and was a representative of the officials of the Shaozhuang faction, who was generally a little enthusiastic, looking at the forces that were secretly about to move in the sea war reports and intelligence institutes, and his heart was anxious.
Some officials of the Young and Strong Main War faction in the House of Representatives immediately responded, and there was an uproar and excitement.
In stark contrast, there are more old fritter oils that seem to be silent officials. The distinction is clear.
Among them, the most calm and the most closed-eyed is the great Sima Dong Jie, the king of the [***] department, who slowly opened his eyes at this time and said lightly, "Now my Da Ye Haishi is in a vicious battle with Shinto Zhai, and the military department has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to fight for this purpose. The thirteen generals of the military department, each of whom is a cultivator of the Earth Xuan Realm, are now on the front line to fight against the army composed of the cultivators of Shinto Zhai and the Kashima National Boat Division, these thirteen generals of the Earth Xuan Realm are the most competent military cultivation force of my Daye, and now they have all been sent out, and this is the situation that they can be left out of the country. ”
The thirteen generals of the military department are the strongest thirteen cultivators in the military below after Wang Zhao, the left general of Daye, and Qi Leyi, the right general. There may be about a thousand cultivators in the Great Ye Kingdom who have reached the cultivation of the realm of existence, but the number of cultivators who have advanced to the Earth Realm is only a handful, about less than a hundred and ten in the whole country.
Of course, reaching the cultivation of the Earth Xuan Realm does not mean that fighting and killing people is extremely powerful, but the following thirteen generals in charge of the military department by Dong Sima are probably the war weapons that the Earth Xuan Realm cultivators know how to kill and fight the most in the Great Ye Kingdom.
Dong Sima continued, "Now that there is a sea border conflict with Shindosai of the Kashima country, do you know that outside the Daye Sea Realm, between the Kashima Kingdom and the Earth Sea, a no-navigation zone has long been set up by the Kashima Country and even the forces that are friendly with it, if you want to tear open this no-sail zone and send Daye's search team to the Seven Great Realms of the Earth and Sea, have you ever thought about how much resources and costs our military will have to pay?
Dong Jie's implication is that no matter whether there is Yu Xiaoxiao, Master Hanzang, or even Yang Ze in the Seven Realms of Earth and Sea at this time, it is impossible for the military department to invest huge war resources to rescue the three people of Earth and Sea.
Some people were excited, and immediately got up and said, "Dong Sima, please Mingjian! Now, not only in the Shendao Zhai side, but also in the Liushuang Country, the Anhui Jin Kingdom, and many forces have set off for Dihai one after another! It is conceivable that the other party has done everything to search for the three people! If the three of them fall into the hands of any of these forces, it will in turn deal the greatest blow to Daye's prestige and prestige! How dangerous is it to weaken the morale of the sergeants? I implore the military headquarters to immediately dispatch searchers. ”
"War is not a game of prestige, but a life-and-death struggle! It's not as serious as you think, little friend!" Dong Jie's voice was raised, looking at the official who was barely present at the national council under him, "I recognize the value of the three of them to Da Ye, but you must always understand that fighting a war is a calm thing, and you can never rely on enthusiasm to make decisions on action, Da Ye's country and the world are fought together, and it is impossible to lower the morale of the whole country because of one or two people!"
Many people present secretly scolded Dong Jie, thinking that this is also sitting and talking without backache, if Yang Ze and Dong Xuan really made a family appointment, now if he is their Dong family's door-to-door son-in-law, now he is clamoring to save people, I am afraid that this old guy in front of him is the one in front of him!
Now it is natural to sit firmly on pins and needles. But no one dares to be tough, after all, this old guy represents the entire Daye Military Department behind him.
Many people subconsciously looked at Yang Ye, the Marquis of Qichun, who was present, but the short-tempered Marquis of Qichun unexpectedly did not make any statement, and kept quiet from beginning to end, but since this time, it is obvious that the sideburns and beard are a little more gray, and naturally he also knows the pressure facing the Yang family in the Marquis of Qichun Mansion now. But the old marquis never asked the kingdom to send troops and horses to the sea to rescue, to witness whether the third son of Nayang is dead or alive now.
After some comparison, everyone in the House of Parliament has more admiration for this Marquis of Qichun, and finally understands that at the juncture of the real national crisis, a figure like "Lionheart Marquis" Yang Ye is the reason why Da Ye has been repeatedly violated and the national fortune is restless, but he has repeatedly been strong and not falling!
Dezhao Tianzi's gaze was withdrawn from Yang Ye, and he faced everyone with his hands, this young king in his thirties, at this moment, his two shoulders seemed to be weighing on the burden that made it difficult for him to even turn around, it was the death of the soldiers of the sea realm. That was a provocation by a border power. It was a strategic oppressive force brought by strong cultivators from overseas, which made it difficult to breathe and overwhelmed the heart.
At this moment, he turned around very decisively, looked at everyone, and said loudly, "The Flowing Frost Country has sent the 'Flowing Frost Dark Department' that is the most proficient in searching, and the Anhui Jin Kingdom has sent the tenth column of the 'Falcon King Cavalry' who is proficient in assassination. Kashima Province sent Kashima Shinto Zhai Lei Donglai to sit down the third disciple of the most authentic lineage, Li Qiucheng, and led the Shinto Zhai branch Shenlan Sect. All forces are searching for the people of Daye who have fallen to the sea, and I am a dignified Daye Kingdom, but they are afraid of this, and they dare not make a slight inch, don't they have the best of it, what kind of face do we have, and leave what we have done in this world to be judged by future generations?"
The slender eyebrows of the Emperor of Dezhao raised, "Pass on my order!" The Privy Council, the Third Envoy, the Military Aircraft Department, and Ling Yuwei must form a search and rescue battalion within three days. Then he came to the position of the sand table, and used the longboard in his hand to deduce that the two fleets were directly inserted into the direction of Daye to the earthly sea, "With the branch of the Daye King Jingluo Boat Division, and the second division of the Chongyang Boat Division, regardless of the cost, tear a hole in the sea for me, no matter what, send the search and rescue battalion out, and do the best possible to bring people back!"
The clouds and fog cover the mountains of Buzhou. The life of the Autumn Dao Academy, except for the practice of the Latitude and the Science of Astronomy, is basically carefree for all the students.
All the young cultivators of the Autumn Dao Academy had to think about what kind of thing to shine in the future.
From the moment they stepped into the Autumn Road Academy, they didn't have to worry about life, and they would be the hottest people in the country in the future.
Buzhou Mountain is warm all year round, especially in the current season, and the heat during the day is inexhaustible at night. So in the square of Akido College or among those flowers and trees, there will always be people chatting under the stars.
Most people are talking about the current situation in Daye, the turmoil outside, but at least for them, it is still far away. Especially embarking on the path of cultivation, everyone will have a different understanding of this world, at least from the mental level, they must feel superior to others, and they are also a lot more elegant and casual when discussing the major events in the world.
Because they belong to the same ancestry, Liu Qian and Xue Ranzao had close contact with Yang Que and Yang Wenyuan. Because of the care and spiritual help of these two eldest brothers, the two of them also entered the country quickly and became the leaders of the new class of students. However, in fact, the two of them understood that if it hadn't happened to that incident, the most top-notch person in the Autumn Dao Academy now would definitely be Yang Ze, who is now known as a genius.
Among the high-profile people in the new batch of students, there are other people such as Dong Xuan of the Dong family. Dong Xuan was quite famous in Daye because of her sweet appearance and long before she came to Qiudao Academy, and now she is very popular in the academy, which is also a matter of course.
At first, she was a little withdrawn, but as more and more people got to know each other, she gradually devoted herself to the life of the college and began to shine. From time to time, you can see her surrounded by the stars and the moon, talking and laughing.
It's just that sometimes the four people of the Qichun Marquis Mansion will occasionally listen to those external movements from Da Ye under the starry night, silently looking forward to and praying for something.
But that's all, everyone's cultivation is not strong enough to cross the Far East Sea Realm and go to the distorted Earth Sea to search for Yang Ze. In the face of the great turmoil that took place in the outside world, naturally there was no power to reverse all this.
So I can only hope that Yang Ze can turn evil into good fortune and finally return to Daye intact.
Yang Wenyuan sometimes sat on the top of Buzhou Mountain, looking at the endless grassland in front of him, holding a pot of wine in his hand, and said, "Originally, the third brother was supposed to enter the Autumn Dao Academy to practice, but such a rare opportunity for cultivation was delayed, not to mention, and his life and death in a foreign country were uncertain. ”
The two of them drank in silence, and after a while, Yang Que's expressionless face would move slightly, "Third brother, that guy can't die." That guy can still survive under the tempering of the two of us, how can it be difficult for a mere sea to stop him?"
Yang Wenyuan laughed out loud, and touched the wine jug with Yang Que fiercely, "Well said, he is our third brother, how can he not live, I will despise him"
"He'll come back alive!" he said with certainty, looking to the east.
Then the two of them poured the pot in their hands with a brush, and the wine drenched the grass.
The morning star is shining brightly overhead.
"When he comes back, let's beat him up first, and then drink all night!"
At the border of the Shangqiu Realm in the Seven Realms of the Earth and Sea, a large group of ships are rising and falling on the shore. Above the hull, the black water flag pierced into the sky like a forest of guns. The wind is rattling!
On the shore were many cultivators dressed in black and white short coats and carrying long knives.
This dress is not unfamiliar to people who stretch for thousands of miles of sea, and almost with their eyes closed, they know that they are practitioners of the famous Kashima Shinto Sai.
Among these Shinto Zhai cultivators, there is a faint young man in a black robe, with picturesque eyebrows but a little demonic energy, and his eyes are full of spirit and some snake-like agility. He is Li Qiucheng, the last closed disciple of Lei Donglai. In the jungle near the shore in the distance, there were hundreds of wanderers, either riding beasts or carrying swords and spears, paying attention to the many well-trained Shinto Zhai black-and-white cultivators, looking at this group of forces that should not be taken lightly, stepping into the earth and sea, and fighting with them.
Next to Li Qiucheng, there were leaders of a group or force of Cloud Wanderers such as Lie Aoxiao, whispering something, and Li Qiucheng couldn't help nodding.
He raised his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and watched with great satisfaction the arrival of Shinto Zhai, the countless wandering group forces in the earth and sea, and even several realm lords sent people to greet him.
Li Qiucheng knew that he had arrived at the Earth Sea, in addition to the first thing to search for Yang Ze, the remnant of the Great Ye Kingdom who had fallen into the Earth, to establish his authority for the Shinto Zhai and get closer to the Xituo Palace. It is also necessary to seek the greatest benefit of Shinto Zhai in the seven realms of the earth and the sea.
For others, Shinto Zhai not only has Lei Donglai, but also him Li Qiucheng, he even began to rejoice that his first two senior brothers died in the hands of Yu Xiaoxiao, but it is a pity that it is his master who slashes Yu Xiaoxiao and not him, but from now on, he Li Qiucheng will gradually embark on the road to peak glory. Capturing Yang Ze was his first step in establishing his authority in the Seven Realms of Earth and Sea.
The vast Tianchi Lake in the mountain realm of Dihailing. The rippling waves are shining.
Yang Zezheng and Ling Yue of the Earth Sea Cloud Court Realm Master Family stood on the ferryboat alive, oblivious to the tides and waves that were slowly setting off outside.
Yu Zhongshu hugged Yang Ze with a fist, "I'm sorry to throw you off the boat." But his expression was not half embarrassed, and in the laughter of a boatload of people, he clenched his fists and smiled faintly.
This is a very realistic situation, since Yang Ze has offended Xin Xiaoxu, it is natural that someone will trouble you in order to be friendly to Xin Xiaoxu.
And Yang Ze will not escape the theme of fighting for a long time, he hates hands-on fighting in Daye, if he is forced to do so, unless Zhang Zhidong, Shangguan Yan and the like, Yang Ze will make a move, and almost avoid fighting with people in addition. However, when he arrived at Dihai, Yang Ze realized that what was respected here was the strong, and if he wanted to have a place, there was no other way than to fight to prove himself.
The repair of the spiritual veins made Yang Ze even more full of great confidence at this time.
Seeing Yang Ze's expression of no cringe, Yu Zhongshu also let out a faint "huh" in his heart, but he had no choice, his family had most of the foundation in Yingzhou Realm, and he himself wanted to establish his own business in the sea of earth, and this part of Yingzhou Realm could not be lost, since he was not qualified to be received by the realm master, Xin Xiaoxu was indeed the direction of his connections. If you have a friendship with Xin Xiaoxu, are you still afraid that your own career will be suppressed and develop prospects in Yingzhou in the future? It's a pity that a beautiful girl like Xin Xiaoxu is basically difficult to get close to her by ordinary means, and now that Yang Ze has come out, it is not an opportunity.
Thinking like this, between Yu Zhongshu's breathing, his whole body tightened, and he only felt that others suddenly seemed to be stronger, and even stretched his whole body with clothes, and the cloth actually rattled!
"Body cultivation exercises, [King Kong Battle]!" Ling Yue, who knew how to do it, changed color slightly. Looking at Yang Ze, "Are you sure? Forget it, if you are thrown into the water, I will definitely be indispensable! Anyway, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, sharing honor and disgrace!"
The people on the boat were originally looking at the two of them lively, but at this moment, seeing Yu Zhongshu's gathering of energy, some people actually showed a worried look, obviously worried that Yu Zhongshu's strength was too strong and accidentally destroyed the big ship, so they would all fall into the water, not Yang Ze's personal problem.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Zhongshu's entire forearm actually became thicker, making his whole person look like an overtrained elephant arm bee waist.
When he reached the peak, he slapped his hands on the ground, and the people flew close to the ground like a beast with the power of this beat, and the ship was slightly shaken by the force of this beat. In an instant, he came to Yang Ze.
Yang Ze's Gu Hao Black Sword has long been included in the treasure bag, and at this moment he is also very confident in the improvement of his own strength, since he has learned about cultivation, he has never encountered a physical cultivator, and now it is rare to see Yu Zhongshu is a physical cultivator, so he wants to see it with his own eyes, and he uses qi to refine the body, ** How strong is it.
However, the opponent's speed still exceeded Yang Ze's initial expectations.
Even more than the pressure brought to him by the Blue Bear Beast, Yu Zhongshu's giant arm swept diagonally!
Yang Ze had no tricks, and he clenched his fists and fought hard with him.
Poof! The sound of the clash of energy exploded, and Yang Ze took a step back.
Yu Zhongshu's face was overjoyed, and with the other hand, he drew a gesture of "holding flowers" that was extremely incommensurate with his thick arms, and patted Yang Ze with a light weight.
However, Yang Ze seemed to be facing a thousand catties of power, and there was no way to avoid it. Gesture to him again!
Yang Ze took three steps back, smashing the deck of the hull with each step, and did not stand firm until the last step. The moment he stood firmly, there were countless voices of amazement and sorrow on the ferry behind him.
"What kind of person is this kid, who can actually fight hard with the strongest body refining family heir in Yingzhou Realm!
"Yu Zhongshu has already obtained the true transmission of the [Vajra Battle Method] exercises, even if it is placed in these seven realms, the physical cultivation technique is also a must, this kid is obviously not a person who refines the body, he can actually stand up to the Vajra Battle Method in Zhongshu, look at him and Ling Yue walking, when did the younger generation of Yunting Realm have such a number one?"
Yu Zhongshu was obviously also shocked, but the battle made him not think more about it, his steps were on the top, flying up, his feet and knees kept heading towards Yang Ze, one after another, the rabbit rose and fell.
Yang Ze only relied on his flesh palm to receive the attack, and retreated, and slammed into the wooden pillar with a bang.
Although Ling Yue was shocked by the two of them, he knew at this moment that it would be strange for the two of them not to be thrown into the water in public, so he hurriedly said to Yang Ze, "Don't fight with him! Speed, remember that your advantage is speed! He uses the Vajra Combat Method, and speed is his disadvantage!"
Yu Zhongshu looked at Yang Ze who hit the wooden pillar, clenched his fists and smiled faintly, "I advise you not to listen to these suggestions and make unrealistic struggles, in fact, my family's Vajra Tactics have both strength and speed, but the outside world thinks that we gather qi to make our bodies stronger, thus ignoring speed, this is a pseudo-truth, a misunderstanding, and no one has ever corrected it, I don't mind taking you in public to correct the profound misunderstanding of others about the "Vajra Tactics" for many years. ”
Yang Ze laughed out loud.
Yu Zhongshu frowned, and the people around him blinked, confirming that they were not mistaken, in the face of such danger, this guy who was obviously losing was still laughing. Ling Yue couldn't cry or laugh, and stood on the side of the boat, "Dude, can you make it or not, if you don't make it, I'll jump down first, it's better than the embarrassment of being thrown down." He considered that there were still some beautiful women in the crowd, and in order not to lose face, it was better to be self-conscious first.
Yang Ze said a little heartily, "This is the strength and talent of a person who cultivates the physique, and it is worthy of the name?"
He repaired the spiritual veins and initially released the potential of his body. It's like a person who was born with walking defects, and suddenly one day healed his foot, he felt unprecedented power, such a high-intensity confrontation, he knew himself well, and kept developing his own potential.
The spiritual veins can make up for the deficiencies in many aspects such as the body, true qi, divine consciousness and spirit, and develop in tandem, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.
With his own physique and exercises, Yang Ze is indeed difficult to compete with Yu Zhongshu, who refines his body. However, he still has the power of a trace of spiritual veins in his body.
After testing his opponent, Yang Ze dispatched the blue aura of the spiritual veins and injected it into his meridians, and then he got up from the wooden pillar and took a step forward.
In the eyes of everyone, Yang Ze took this step very carefully.
You must know that the two sides are facing each other, Yu Zhongshu's qi machine has already firmly locked him, and it stands to reason that any move forward at this moment will trigger an early attack by the other party.
However, Yang Ze took a step forward from breaking away from the wooden pillar, and Yu Zhongshu immediately felt that Yang Ze in front of him seemed to be a different person. was reborn, so that he didn't dare to act rashly for a while. The discerning people on the ferries around also sighed "huh".
A trace of disdain flashed in Yu Zhongshu's eyes, "So it's mysterious!"
With his hands together and his five fingers spread, as if a flower had bloomed, he pushed towards Yang Ze with a thousand powers!
Yang Ze did not retreat but advanced, and even pasted it with his shoulder, and his shoulder and Yu Zhongshu's palms touched hard.
Bang! The boat shook a little, and Yu Zhongshu took a step back.
"How is that possible?" Yu Zhongshu's face turned pale.
"This is the second blow!" Yang Ze's fist was smashed out at this time, and it collided with Yu Zhongshu's thick arm that urgently replied!
Poof! Yu Zhongshu took two steps back, obviously because of the blow just now, which made his true qi in his body agitate and complain.
The black shadow flickered, and Yang Ze had already made his scalp tingle appear in front of him, and he couldn't help but magnify his punch, "This is the third punch!"
Poof! The wooden planks on the ground splashed, and at the same time, along with the Yu Zhongshu flying out of the ground!
He couldn't believe it when he saw himself soaring into the air, and the expression on his face was twisted in mid-air with extreme panic, and he fell into Tianchi Lake with a bang.
The crystal water splashed and waterfell, and Yang Ze stood on the ferry and shrugged his shoulders chicly, "Offended." Looking at the vast Tianchi Lake, he suddenly had endless ambitions for the future.
(To be continued)
