Chapter 355: Time is running out
Wuji gently pushed away Shi Yuling's arm, put on a piece of clothing, stood up, pulled the thin quilt, and covered Shi Yuling's naked body.
She didn't seem to feel the cold, even in the Liuyu Palace built of ice and snow, she still only wore a silk robe.
The special physique of the same origin of ice and fire is really different.
Mowgli's fingers slid nostalgically over Shi Yuling's body. Shi Yuling groaned softly, her eyelashes moved, and her face flushed slightly, but she didn't open her eyes. Mowgli smiled silently and turned around to leave. Shi Yuling stretched out his hand and grabbed him.
"I can't stay. Wuji sighed softly, "I'm already a little shaken. If you stay any longer, I will really only envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals. If it's just a hundred years, that's fine. We are all people who have entered the Tao, and we can't sit back and watch Shenzhou Lu Shen for a long time. ”
Shi Yuling sighed and let go of his hand.
She has been with Wuji for a long time, and she knows that if she is not forced to be helpless, Wuji will not bother to care about those idle things. The Great Qin Empire is dead and dead, and Wuji doesn't care at all. For him, Ying Yiran was much more important than the Great Qin Empire.
"I don't dare keep you. Otherwise, someone will come to the door right away. ”
Mowgli smiled. "I'll leave the matter of the Hundred Variation Pill to my sister. I'll pick it up again in a few days. ”
"Okay. Shi Yuling nodded, sat up, stretched out his arms, and stretched. The thin quilt slipped off her, the round twin peaks trembling and two points of pink. Wuji smiled bitterly, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and his figure shook before disappearing.
"Alas-" Shi Yuling let out a long sigh, Gu Ying felt sorry for himself. She sat down for a while, turned over and sat up, dragged the light veil, and came to the storeroom.
Standing in the treasury full of various medicinal herbs, there was a little more smile in her eyes, just like a king inspecting his empire, looking at thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. Smile with satisfaction. She stretched out her hands and beckoned gently.
Several drawers were pulled open by an invisible hand, and the extremely fine powder was blown up by a breeze and floated up. They were intertwined in the air, mixed evenly, and slowly gathered in the palm of Shi Yuling's left hand, forming a small ball about three inches in diameter, hovering in mid-air.
Shi Yuling's eyes turned slightly, and a blue flame emerged from his palm, engulfing the small ball. The balls begin to change color. The powders fused together, entangled with each other, and under the scorching flames, the balls melted into a mass of droplets, flowing and tumbling in the air, getting smaller and denser, and glowing with a mysterious sheen.
Shi Yuling lightly pointed with his right hand. A cold air shot out from the end of his finger, instantly freezing the droplets.
A crystal clear, crystal-like pill appeared in Shi Yuling's palm, similar in size to the Hundred Variation Pill. The color is slightly purple.
Shi Yuling stretched out two fingers, took the newly refined Hundred Variety Pill, looked at it carefully, and showed a satisfied smile. The Hundred Variety Pill in front of her was very similar to the records she had heard. She should have achieved the refining process required by Mowgli, but the difficulty was not as great as she imagined.
"Linghu Ye?"
"Palace Master. Linghuye's voice came from afar. After desperately saving Mowgli's child, he returned to the Liuyu Palace. Continue to be his squire. Although it seems to be idle, he is very satisfied. He knew very well that in addition to the delicacies in the Liuyu Palace, there were also a large number of precious pills. If there is a good thing, he will definitely be the first to get it.
"There's an elixir here, you can take it and try it on someone who hasn't entered the fierce realm. Shi Yuling flicked his fingers, and the Hundred Variation Pill turned into a purple light, which flew out, and instantly arrived in front of Ling Huye.
Ling Huye was startled, but he didn't move, he believed that Shi Yuling would not shoot him with pills.
Sure enough, the pill stopped two feet in front of him and landed right in his outstretched palm. Ling Huye praised, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, and he immediately fell to his knees on one leg. "Congratulations to the palace master for entering the Dao. ”
"Nothing to rejoice in. Shi Yuling's faint voice came. "Notify me as soon as the results are available. ”
"Wow. Ling Huye didn't dare to slack off, took the pill, went out of the palace, and called a handyman who was still in the strong realm. Such a person is not easy to find, and the armor soldiers under the fox field are at least above the spirit realm, and only the miscellaneous servants will not enter the fierce realm.
The miscellaneous servants didn't know what it was, but they didn't dare to disobey, they took the pill in fear, and looked at Ling Huye in a daze. Ling Huye blinked. "How do you feel?"
"Nope. The handyman thought for a moment and added, "It's a little sweet." ”
Ling Huye almost laughed, turned around and left, ready to report back to Shi Yuling. As soon as he turned around, he heard a loud bang behind him, followed by a long cry full of terror. He looked back and couldn't help but smile.
A long-haired yak lies on the ground, his eyes flustered. It kept opening its mouth, as if to speak, but it was mooing.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Ling Huye laughed, stretched out his hand and patted the yak's head. "You are blessed, you have broken through the realm in one step. ”
The yak nodded repeatedly, stood up tentatively, and then circled again. Ling Huye knew that this handyman's brain was not very good, so he ignored his self-amusement, walked back to the palace quickly, and reported the results to Shi Yuling.
Shi Yuling was very satisfied, and ordered Ling Hu Ye to strengthen her vigilance, and she was going to start working overtime to refine the Hundred Variety Pill.
......
As soon as Wuji returned to Xiaoyang Kingdom, Lin Ziyue told him a piece of good news. Among the first batch of giants to enter the retreat room, there were already two who had broken through the realm, and they had changed from seventh-order Qi disciples to Qi Shi, and the progress was surprisingly fast.
Mowgli breathed a sigh of relief. With this killer feature, he finally has some confidence.
In the next few days, the good news came one after another, more than half of the giants who entered the Jing Room had achieved a breakthrough, not only all the Qi disciples had become Qi Shi, but also two middle and high-level Qi Shi had broken through the realm and become Qi Shi.
Giants are inherently dull, and cultivation has always been a big problem for them, more often than not, relying on instinct. More than half of the people will not be able to become Qi Shi in their lifetime, and the probability of appearing in the Grandmaster realm is far lower than that of the Wind Giant and the Kuafu Giant. Breaking through the realm so quickly, and in batches, is like a miracle for the giants.
Naturally, this retreat has become a sacred place for the minds of giants. A breakthrough that may not be possible in one's lifetime can be achieved by sitting in the mourning room for a few days, and this temptation is too great for the giant who has always respected his strength. They gave full play to their pitiful intelligence, tried their best to behave perfectly, and strived to be able to enter the Jingshu to cultivate as soon as possible.
Fools also have the advantage of being fools, let them sit, they sit, and there is no reaction at all. They also sat down correctly, and did not call them out, even if they sat numb in their legs, their eyes straightened, and their faces turned blue from the cold, they would not take the initiative to come out. Perhaps it's this kind of muddling that makes them easier to break through than the windbreakers.
A month later, when Ying Yiran rushed to Xiaoyang Mountain with Silly Jiu, Wang Wang, Lin Ziyi and others, almost all the giants who entered the Jing Room were out of the customs, and the worst effect was to break the realm. The effect is good, and even breaking through two realms in a row, it is unbelievable.
In contrast, Wang Xicheng and Lin Xianzhi, who were the first to enter the chamber, have not moved.
Seeing this scene, Mowgli became more determined. The higher the realm, the more difficult it is to break through the realm, which is common sense. If there was a device that could mass-produce Dao realms, it would be too demonic.
Wuji immediately arranged for a group of giant guards to enter the chamber, and these people were to protect Yingyi. After the appearance of the Dao Realm, the safety of the generals on both sides has been raised to a new level, and there is no strong pro-guard battalion. Almost no one is safe, and they can be beheaded by the opponent's master at any time. Ying Yiran was the last hope of the Great Qin Empire, and he had to keep her safe.
Of course, Wang Wang, Silly Jiu and Lin Ziyi entered the mourning room unkindly. And Ying Yiran himself was entangled in all kinds of things and could not enter the mourning room to practice.
"I'm not going in. I can't feel at ease when I go in, but I take up a place. Ying Yiran said to Wuji: "I have something to discuss with you. ”
Mowgli did not insist. Ying Yiyi has a heavy responsibility, and it is indeed impossible to leave everything behind and practice wholeheartedly. She is already the Great Perfection of the Xuan Realm. If you want to enter the Dao realm, you can't do it by sitting in the mourning room for a few days.
"What's the matter?"
"We need to bring the flower moon here. One is because she is proficient in the Spring Rite Dance, and she knows more about the Spring Rite Dance than you. We can't let her serve Xiahou Mengde and Ling Hu Minzhi. Second, she is Yangyang's only good friend, and Yangyang is very worried about her and hopes to save her. Finally, before we have the ability to launch a counterattack, we must make the Xianyang people aware of our existence and rescue Hua Rongyue, which is a good choice. ”
Lin Ziyue said lightly: "This matter is easy to do, my brother and I will go to Xianyang." ”
"It's not that simple. Ying Yiran shook her head. "Although Linghu Minzhi's realm is limited, he is cunning. He can snatch the flower and the moon from Pin Yuxuan, and he must know the beauty of the Spring Sacrifice Dance. It's impossible for him not to keep Hua Langyue under strict control, waiting for you to save him. Even if you go to Xianyang, you may not be able to find her location. Once his whereabouts are exposed, he may be trapped by the Seven Killing Array. ”
"So what to do?"
"The best way, of course, is to enter Xianyang with ease. With your realm, as long as you don't show flaws, no one should be able to hurt you. ”
"Easy to look like?" Wuji's eyes rolled. "You mean the Queen Mother's stinging dragon change?"
Ying Yiran nodded. "You go to Crouching Tiger Town, find the queen mother, learn the dragon transformation from her, and you can easily enter Xianyang City. ”
"Good. However, I'm going to get rid of the tribes of the Purple Moon Forest first. When we were thinking about making trouble in Xianyang, it was impossible for Xiahou Mengde not to find our flaws. You have to tie up the fence before you can go out hunting with confidence. ”
Ying Yiran weighed it for a long time and agreed with Wuji's opinion.
......
Linghu Minzhi stood on the high mountain, looking at the ice and snow shining in the sun in the distance, his face was whiter than ice and snow.
Along the way, he saw a situation that was even more serious than Mowgli had said. This year's ice sheet has advanced at least 300 miles southward compared to last year, and at this rate, Xianyang will be covered with ice and snow in no more than 20 years, and the entire continent will be frozen in no more than 100 years.
If the rate of cooling is accelerated, the consequences will be even more dire.
"My lord, how can this be?" I don't know if it's frozen or frightened, Du Yu's voice trembles a little.
The forty-nine centaur knights who had been secretly trained by Fox Minzhi were also frightened by all this in front of them, and their eyes were dull and they were speechless.
"Mowgli didn't lie to us. Linghu Minzhi's voice was dry, losing its former mellowness and clarity, sounding like a file, tormenting everyone's nerves. He was right, if the cause was not found soon, the entire continent would be frozen and lifeless. ”
"How?"
"Back to Xianyang. Linghu Minzhi turned around, spread his body, and galloped south. "We can't wait any longer, we have to hurry up or the consequences will be devastating. ”
Du Yu didn't dare to slack off, and beckoned the centaur knight to follow closely.
......
Nearly 5,000 miles away, it only took three days for Linghu Minzhi to arrive. Xiahou Mengde was very surprised by his return, and even wondered if he had only come back from a round trip in Gyeonggi to deal with his errands.
However, when Linghu Minzhi picked up a pen and drew a line on the newly drawn circle of the Great Wei Quanyu behind him, he was stunned.
On the map, this line is only a palm away from Xianyang.
"Toshiyuki, you're not mistaken?"
"I read that right. Ling Hu Minzhi smiled ugly. "Your Majesty, we don't have much time. If you can't take the Purple Moon Forest within three years, the empire will collapse due to food shortages. When the time comes, the hungry people will destroy everything, and the millions of armies around Xianyang will become the most brutal beasts. Your Majesty, hunger is the most terrible enemy. ”
Xiahou Mengde was silent. He stared at the map and said nothing. Ling Hu Minzhi is not alarmist. The ice line is already approaching the most fertile plains of the Empire, and once this granary is damaged, the Empire will fall into a major crisis and chaos without a fight.
Before the crisis occurred, sending the main force to southern Xinjiang to attack the Purple Moon Forest might not only reduce the pressure on the grain near Xianyang, but also disperse the various corps, so as not to lose control once it gets out of control and cannot be cleaned up.
"However, the empire is new, the internal affairs are not settled, and the hasty expedition will be self-defeating?"
"Your Majesty, therefore, must make a decisive decision to eradicate the wavering speculators as quickly as possible, clear the wait-and-see enemies, and snatch their resources to alleviate the crisis of the Empire. ”
Xiahou Mengde pondered for a long time. "Then let's deal with Ying's and Montessori's first, and test people's hearts. Minzhi, leave this matter to Li Ze first. If he still refuses to contribute, you will come forward again, and then even the Li family will do it together. Three of the seven surnames have been disposed of, and the rest should be more honest. ”
"Only!" Ling Hu Minzhi bowed down to receive the order. The two talked about political affairs for a while, and Hu Minzhi left Afang Palace and met Li Ze at the gate of the palace. Li Ze grinned. "Great Master, what are the new discoveries of the trip to Northern Xinjiang?"
Ling Hu Minzhi bowed slightly and shook his head. "Your Majesty will inform you of what you should know. The Heavenly Academy has no right to intervene in the matters handled by the Heavenly Academy. After speaking, without waiting for Li Ze to speak, he got up and walked away.
Li Ze was furious, stared at Linghu Minzhi's back for a long time, and flicked his sleeves hatefully-
