After understanding the reality of the Jade Toad Dao and discussing it with Mo Li, Lu Yuan returned to Baling City with a little reluctance.

As the master of the one, although Mo Li's cultivation was only condensed, it was even a little inferior to Lu Yuan.

After all, Lu Yuan's cultivation of the Taiping Dao Book can attract the aura of the heavenly firmament.

Coupled with the speed of the refinement of the method of qi luck, in fact, only in terms of cultivation, Lu Yuan is already far stronger than Mo Li, and it is not far from condensing the two qi.

What can be cultivated is cultivation, and the realm is the realm. Mana is mana, and spells are spells.

Although Lu Yuan's cultivation is high, in terms of realm, he is obviously not as good as Mo Li, who has been practicing for hundreds of years.

The other party's cultivation is only low, but after hundreds of years of intensive study of Taoism and comprehension of various Taoist classics, the state of mind he has cultivated is much stronger than Lu Yuan.

And it is not a double way but a big faction, and the various spells and magical powers collected in the door are as vast as a sea of smoke, like stars, and it is difficult to count.

The magic powers in Lu Yuan's hands were only recorded in the Taiping Dao Book and the Five Thunder Books with dozens of them.

Although many of them are powerful, in a way, they are still a bit partial and not comprehensive.

For example, celestial spells.

In the Taiping Dao book, when you reach the realm of the three qis, there is a technique of exhaling the wind, which can attract strong winds.

When you reach the realm of the four qi, there is a technique of summoning rain, which can make the sky rain.

When you reach the realm of the five qi dynasties, you can combine the wind and rain with each other, and you can become a supernatural power, and a thought will make the heavens and the earth change color, and the wind and rain will be great.

In the Book of Five Thunders, there is also the art of heavenly thunder, which can summon the heavenly thunder to help and help the caster resist the enemy.

However, these spells and supernatural powers only include the three celestial phenomena of wind, rain and thunder, although they are powerful, they are not comprehensive.

For example, in the Flying Frost Path, similar celestial spells are also possessed, which not only contain wind, rain and thunder, but also derive snow, ice, light, and fog...... And so on.

Almost all the celestial phenomena in nature, there are corresponding spells in the Flying Frost Dao, but the power is different.

Tens of thousands of years of inheritance, the efforts of more than 100 generations of disciples, and the study and improvement of generations have already made the inheritance of Feishuang Dao perfect, and there are no obvious drawbacks.

When Lu Yuan encounters some sinister situations, he may be limited to his own cultivation method, and it will be difficult to solve the breakthrough and be trapped in a dangerous situation.

But if you change to Mo Li and other people from big factions, in the face of any dangerous problems, there are similar ways to deal with them in the inheritance left by the ancestors.

They can completely follow the method, cast the corresponding magic powers, solve the problems one by one, and get out of the danger.

This is the essence of the big faction, and it is also what Lu Yuan, who was born in a small family of casual cultivation, lacks.

He talked about Taoism with Mo Li, and he was talking about these things.

After a small conversation on the tenth day, this Feishuang Daoist talked about a lot of his own experience in cultivating techniques, which made Lu Yuan feel that he had benefited a lot, and he also touched some of the Taoism on the Taiping Taoist Book, and he made a lot of improvement.

When he goes to practice in the future, he has the confidence that it will be much easier and simpler.

That's why.

For this discussion, Lu Yuan was quite obsessed, and he couldn't bear to end it.

It's just that the world is forced by many mundane things, and he doesn't have much free time to use it for his hobbies, so he has to leave in pain.

However, after this discussion on the Heavenly Shou Mountain, as well as the previous discussion in Baling, Lu Yuan deeply realized the gap between himself and those disciples of the big faction.

This kind of precipitation of the background is indeed not something that can be smoothed out by relying on cheating in the Taiping Taoist Book and simply improving one's cultivation.

This made him determined that after the major immortal sects soared, he would rule Kyushu in the future, and he must order the collection of various classic books and dojos, supernatural powers, and spells for the imperial review.

At that time, he will learn all over Kyushu, be familiar with the countless Taoist supernatural powers inherited by various families from ancient times, and have the foundation of a realm of immortals, and Lu Yuan's own cultivation realm will be profound to an unimaginable extent.

It can definitely reach a point where there is no one before, and it is difficult to have someone to come.

In the future, if he really ascends to the immortal realm, relying on these backgrounds, he will also be able to raise his realm to a wonderful realm that is difficult for ordinary people to understand in a short period of time.

Of course.

All of the above is just an idea, and it is far from time to act.

At this time, it was tantamount to coveting other Dao laws and regulations from various immortal sects, which was forcing those Kyushu monks to start a war with Lu Yuan.

Even after those Kyushu monks ascended, for a long time, it was not the time to collect these Dao magic powers.

Because at that time, although there were no monks in the various immortal sects, relying on the past background, there would still be no shortage of innate grandmasters.

Some of these innate grandmasters are here, and Lu Yuan is not easy to force the other party's background.

The time to truly collect these Dao Dharma supernatural powers is to wait until the end of the Dharma completely comes, all the strange beasts in Shenzhou are dead, it is difficult to produce the Divine Blood Spirit Pill, and the Innate Grandmaster is completely extinct.

That day is not far off.

Soon the Kyushu monks will activate the Northern Netherworld, and at that time, the formation will extract the last remnants of the active aura between heaven and earth to maintain the formation.

At that time, the active aura that can still be used by the monk will completely dissipate, and the remaining god-blood xenomorphs in heaven and earth will also completely lose the aura that they rely on for survival at the end.

Without the aura and the environment for survival, the remaining god-blood xenomorphs will also die of hunger due to lack of aura.

Other words.

For example, today, those god-blood xenomorphs who are still alive may not be able to die of old age and illness in a few decades.

People in the world, you will completely lose the Divine Blood Spirit Pill, the source of the martial artist's cultivation treasure, and completely insulate it from the innate nature.

At that time, it will be extinct and become a legend.

There are no supernatural powers in the world, and mortals can only reach the first-class realm of the day after tomorrow at most.

Although this realm is powerful, it can only resist thousands of armies at most, and under the siege of the army and the strong bow and crossbow, it can only be secretly hated.

Even because of the end of the law, in the later life, it may be difficult to achieve the first-class realm.

Because without the assistance of the elixir, even if a genius with excellent talent wants to practice a meridian, it will take two years at the earliest.

To break through the first-class, you need to get through the twelve canons, which adds up to twenty-four years.

This is still the case of martial artists who practice hard day and night and never slack off.

If you run around, slack off your martial arts, and be burdened by foreign affairs.

This shortest period of 24 years will be infinitely enlarged, and it may be 30 or 40 years, and it will be difficult to break through the first-class.

At that time, maybe the first-class masters, like today's innate masters, are at the pinnacle of the rivers and lakes, and few people can match them.

In this case, the so-called cultivation of immortals and refining qi will naturally be regarded as illusory by the world.

The immortals and gods recorded in various classics will also be regarded as fictional myths, which are falsely rumored and not trustworthy at all.

Those descendants of the immortal sect are estimated to be secretly muttering, thinking whether their ancestors really have Taoist immortals, or whether they are "immortals" who have been whitewashed and touted by later generations from generation to generation.

And at that time, it was also the time for Lu Yuan to collect these Dao methods.

At that time, with his strength, it was enough to form a dimensionality reduction blow to those top-notch Jianghu martial artists.

swept the world, and it was difficult to have an opponent.

At that time, whether it is in the name of the emperor of the dynasty, let the world's Daomen enter the Taoist supernatural powers. Or directly take it, it will be very easy.

It's undoubtedly an easy shortcut.

The only drawback, which is that this end times are coming, can take hundreds of years and go through a long wait.

And Lu Yuan lacks everything, but he just doesn't lack life and time.

He had enough patience to wait.

After collecting the Taoist scriptures, there is enough time to study and study them, and slowly master them.

Time is on its side.

……

After returning to Baling, Lu Yuan continued to pay close attention to the movements of the Zhou Kingdom.

On the side of the Zhou State, the newly recruited soldiers of Guannei County are still in full swing training.

Not far from Chang'an, the Lantian camp can hear the sound of golden drums every day, and the shouts of those athletes in the pass make the surrounding valleys tremble.

This big country, which has always been known for its martial arts and belligerence, is indeed as rumored, the country is full of tigers and wolves, warlike and combative, and extremely brave.

It's just that in addition to constantly training soldiers and horses, there is no movement in the Zhou court.

There was no sign of them sending troops, nor was there any idea that they were planning to strike a truce.

The spies planted by the Imperial City Division and the Honglu Temple couldn't find out the slightest bit of information at all.

As if they had forgotten about this matter, Zhou Ren did not show the slightest attitude towards Chu State, and everything seemed foggy.

Lu Yuan discussed with the ministers for a long time, but he couldn't guess the thoughts of the Zhou people.

After guessing for a long time, he was also a little irritable.

In the end, I thought about it seriously, and I simply didn't guess, and I didn't wait for Zhou Ren to act.

Blindly waiting passively always seems passive.

Qingyunzi and the tens of thousands of forbidden troops of the Northern Expedition could not have been dragged in Hanzhong.

The southern expedition plan that is already being planned still needs the participation of this clone and this group of elites, and Chu has no time to accompany the Zhou people to play guessing games.

Therefore, Lu Yuan directly ordered Huang Xuan to implement the Helong strategy determined last year according to the plan.

Send men and horses to contact the people of the Snow Plains and ask them to cooperate with the troops.

Then Hanzhong sent tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to attack Longxi County of Zhou, and while dealing with those Tibetans, they also plundered the local population and brought them back to enrich the country.

Didn't the Zhou people move?

Isn't it suspicious?

Then you don't move, I move.

Lu Yuan didn't believe it, his army was dispatched, pointing directly at Helong, facing the threat of heavy troops, the Zhou people could still train their troops as safely as now, when nothing happened?

As for Huang Xuan's expedition, the defense of Hanzhong can only be temporarily handed over to Qingyunzi.

Hanzhong County and Zhou Guoguan County border the slope valley artery, there is a slope valley pass standing, as long as tens of thousands of heavy soldiers are stationed in this dangerous pass, and then there is Qingyunzi to guard.

Even if the 200,000 troops newly trained by the Zhou people all went south, they could only stumble outside the pass, sighing at the danger, helpless.

At that time, whether the Zhou people sent troops to aid Helong, or sent troops south to recapture Hanzhong. Lu Yuan can try out the details and plans of the other party, and let them show their feet.

As long as the other party shows flaws, then the Chu State can naturally see the tricks and deal with them one by one.

He also wanted to see it.

What Mo Li said before, is the subtle relationship between Jade Toad Dao and Zhou Guo true?

It's all up to you.

So on the third day of the fourth month of the tenth year of Shenwu, Huang Xuan, the governor of the three western counties of Chu and the real person who protected the country, officially swore to worship the sky in the south of Hanzhong County, and then sent 60,000 troops, set off along Yangping Pass, crossed the Longshan Trail, and attacked Longxi.

This hand of the Chu army once again caught the Zhou people off guard.

No one thought that in the case of operating 200,000 Zhou troops in the Guan, they practiced day and night, waited for the day, and looked down on Hanzhong.

In the face of the threat of heavy troops, the Chu army of Hanzhong County dared to ignore the risk and still sent troops to Longxi.

Even more deadly.

At the end of March this year, the Tibetan people on the snowy fields gathered 400,000 troops again and launched another spring raid this year.

At this time, the main energy of the 400,000 Zhou soldiers in the second county of Helong was focused on these invading Tibetans.

There is not much defense against the hinterland, which is located in the rear and is only connected by a small road to Hanzhong County.

It is only at the other end of this Yangguan Mountain Road, a place called Linguansai, where 10,000 elite soldiers are stationed to guard against the threat of Hanzhong.

But with only 10,000 soldiers and horses, how could it be the 60,000 elite opponents led by Huang Xuan himself?

In just one day, under Huang Xuan's personal charge, this military fortress was breached, and thousands of Zhou people in the city were killed, and the rest were captured.

Then the Chu army took Linguansai as a base, leaving 10,000 people to garrison, and the remaining 50,000 soldiers and horses were divided into five routes, roughly surrounding prefectures and counties, and took the opportunity to seize territory.

However, in a few days, the soldiers and horses of the Fifth Route broke through thirteen county towns and two prefectures, and directly occupied the two provinces in the hinterland of Longxi County in the rear and the incomparably empty.

The news spread, and the river shook in an instant.

At that time, He Batsheng, who was commanding the soldiers and horses to resist the encirclement and suppression of the invading Tibetans, was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.

At this time, his hundreds of thousands of troops were pressed on the front line, fighting wits and courage with the Tibetan people, and countless soldiers and horses were dragging on the front line hundreds of miles away from the rear.

More critically.

If it is his own rear, the news of the Chu people sending troops has reached the side of the Tibetan people.

Those barbarians on those snowy fields will be greatly encouraged, and this time they want to give the other party a head-on blow as before, and then let the people retreat obediently, but it is not so easy.

Maybe the Fan people on the snow field will continue to increase their troops and drag down their own frontline army to cooperate with the actions of the Chu people.

After all, the current state of Chu has married the spirit daughter of the Tibetan people, and the two sides are allies, and it is normal for allies to cooperate with each other.

Therefore, when the Chu army went to contact the Tibetan people, the two sides echoed back and forth, which was already a sure thing.

As a veteran on the battlefield, He Batsheng has no luck in his heart.

Therefore, he urgently dispatched 50,000 soldiers and horses, and let his deputy Sima Zhengde, the general of Xizhu State, lead the troops, and urgently rushed to the rear to curb the actions of resisting the Chu army and prevent the other party from further spreading in Longxi County.

In addition, he also urgently sent messengers to send the matter of the Chu people out of the fortress and Pegasus back to Chang'an, so that the monarchs and ministers of the court could prepare as soon as possible and formulate a way to deal with it.

And He Batsheng himself seized the time and led the troops to attack quickly, hoping to defeat the Tibetan people as soon as possible, and then return to the division to repel the Chu people.

However, his ideas are good, but how can things go as he wants?

Just as He Batsheng guessed, the people of the Snow Plains received a messenger from the Chu people and learned that the Chu State had sent troops to the rear of Longxi and entered the empty land of the Zhou people.

The various tribes on the snowfield immediately cheered.

At the same time, for his family's decision to marry a spirit girl, they all feel that it is worth it and they are extremely happy.

Look.

As soon as the spirit girl got married, the state of Chu responded instantly, and sent an "army of 100,000" to help them attack the rear of the Zhou people, cutting off the other party's retreat.

What a sincerity, what a friendship?

Needless to say, in the face of Chu State's proposal to cooperate here, the Fan people did not hesitate at all, and agreed in an instant.

In response to allies, but also to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

On the basis of the original 400,000 troops, the various departments on the snow field were connected again, and then gathered together an army of 300,000 and three innate warriors to form the second wave of invasion army, and slaughtered towards Helong.

In this way, counting the original soldiers and horses, the number of invading people on the Helong front has reached 700,000, including seven innate warriors.

Such a powerful force, even if it is He Batsheng, the friendship will not want to win.

Even if one is not careful, the entire Helong war situation may collapse, and the two counties of Helong, which have been maintained for several years, will also completely fall and lose in the hands of the Tibetan Chu State.

All of a sudden.

With Huang Xuan's sudden insertion, the battle situation of the Zhou State in the Helong region was instantly facing the risk of collapse, and the situation had reached an extremely critical moment.

See this.

After the news was transmitted back to the Zhou State, the monarchs and ministers of the Zhou State, who had been playing tricks, finally couldn't sit still anymore.

On the 13th of April, Emperor Zhou personally canonized a Taoist who had descended from Yuhua Mountain as the general of the Nanzhu Kingdom, especially taking over the position of the deceased Dongfang Wuyun.

Then he urgently ordered the former general of the Zhuguo State stationed in Shuofang, and ordered him to take the 150,000 elites of Shuofang County to Longxi in the south to repel the invasion of the suppression of the Chu people.

As for the vacancies after the transfer of these elites from northern Xinjiang, only the newly canonized general of the Nanzhu State led the 150,000 recruits who had just been recruited and had not been trained for several months, and went north to Shuofang to defend the border.

After some transfers, the details of Zhou Guo were also completely exposed in the eyes of everyone.

Everything was as Mo Li said, the complex situation of Yuhua Mountain's location made Yu Toad Dao not dare to bet all on Zhou Guo.

The other party's assistance to Zhou Guo turned out to be just a Dharma Protector General.

It is naturally impossible to defeat the combination of Huang Xuan and Qingyunzi and lead the troops to recapture Hanzhong.

That's exactly what the other party knows.

So apart from recruiting an army and training in the Lantian camp, there was no action.

On the contrary, in order to hide his weakness, he has been spreading suspicions and deceiving the eyes of the world, hoping to maintain the strong appearance of the Zhou State.

At this time, Chu State suddenly made a surprise attack, which instantly broke the situation of Helong, but it completely tore open this fig leaf, and clearly showed the weakness of Zhou State in front of the eyes of the people of the world.

The so-called top three overlords in the world have declined to the point that they can only maintain ten congenitals, and although there are many soldiers and horses under their command, under the control of various battlefields, the mobile soldiers and horses that can be mobilized are becoming fewer and fewer.

Zhou Guo was so embarrassed that he couldn't even compare to Ning Guo.

After all, Ning Guo, with the help of Ziyun Dao, also has fourteen innate beings, and can use more than 600,000 soldiers and horses at any time.

From this point alone, it has been stronger than the Zhou State.
