888 Epilogue
On the earth, all living beings are being staged one by one, and above the sky, the forbidden place of mortals, where no one can touch, time seems to have fallen into a standstill.
The sea of clouds is stagnant, and the sun sets in the sky.
A figure sitting cross-legged floats above the sea of clouds, unmoving, like an eternal sculpture.
The long inky hair was softly draped over the man's back, the figure's head hung down slightly, and the continuous flashing light in his eyes was the only comparison of the passage of time here.
This is exactly Chen Ziang who crossed the catastrophe.
He had been preparing for this Yuan Shen Tribulation for a long time, and he was very ambitious.
With the power of the core of the Three Tribulations Primordial Mirage, he plunged this entire small world into his inner demon tribulation. With the participation of the Phaseless Heavenly Demon, he could find an opportunity to understand the transformation of time and space and the principle of definite cause and effect in this calamity of the heart demon.
Even, there is a great possibility that he can touch the realm of the peak of the Yuan Shen in advance.
If he were someone else, he would not dare to be so crazy, but he had already had the experience of the Second Tribulation of the Yuan Shen, and he had the Supreme Heart Sutra in the Seven Treasures Wonderful Technique, so he had a great grasp of surviving the tribulation of the heart demon.
This is the capital he is willing to break through.
And every demon that falls on this world, in fact, is not slightly weaker than his body in terms of the foundation, and with these demons helping him evolve the progress of this world, he can see more.
And the cultivation path of this small world is not prosperous, and the upper limit of force is extremely low, which can also allow him to be sure to dominate the overall situation, and will not be counterattacked by people possessed by demons.
Everything is going well, and the demons that fall into this world, each of which combines an obsession somewhere in Chen Ziang's heart, and combines with the ontology of this world, causing variables that disturb this world.
This world, the future that was originally clearly visible in his eyes, has become vague, unpredictable, and full of unknowns because of the existence of these variables.
And these inner demons from the depths of his heart combined with the deepest existence in the vast universe also gave Chen Ziang a lot of surprises.
There are some things that even he can't do, but these demonic manifestations can be easily performed, and they can also harm the possessed person in the slightest.
For example, that little girl named Ruowu can actually act out the future situation in her dreams without any pressure as a mortal.
For example, there is a master refining master who can absorb the refining techniques that this world once had, and evolve them on the basis of blessing his own body.
For example, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty at this time, his understanding of economics and politics changed day by day, and the depth of the involvement was far beyond the limit of what a mortal could accommodate.
He could actually do this, but he could never easily give a mortal such power.
Because he is limited by this world, there is not much demon energy revealed on the outside, but this has opened Chen Ziang's eyes, and his understanding of himself has become more and more in-depth.
And the continuation of the timeline of this world and the changes that occur all the time also gave him a great understanding of the connection between the perception of the realm of the primordial gods and the definite number of cause and effect.
Certainty, variables, and calamities all appeared in front of his eyes at all times, verifying them one by one with the words of the Great Dao he had learned, and helping him grasp the mystery little by little.
However, while this method of crossing the catastrophe is wonderful, there are also dangers lurking in it.
Just as he smashed the core of the mirage and entered the inner demon tribulation, Chen Ziang realized that something was wrong.
Originally, in his opinion, it was the calamity of the demons, but it must be fake!
But when he got closer, he realized that he had begun to gradually distinguish between what was true and what was false. In other words, he is losing his judgment of truth and falsehood step by step.
The original real existence of this world gradually blurred and untouchable in his senses, but this illusory realm of demons has become more and more real!
Many times, he had thought about opening the stone door in his mind and returning to the cultivation world.
But he was afraid, was it his own body in the demon calamity of his heart that he was going back, or was he in the present world?
Even, will the tribulation of his inner demons become more and more unpredictable because he has reached the cultivation world.
After all, his method of avoiding robbery had never been heard of anywhere else.
As time passes, the existence in reality will inevitably become more and more illusory, and eventually disappear, and he will remain in this illusory world he created forever.
But it was not easy for him to give up the opportunity to watch a world evolve.
To this end, he intervened, carefully promoting the development of this world, stimulating their abilities, increasing the contradictions between the demons, and striving to destroy all the demons in the shortest possible time.
In this way, he can get the most out of the robbery safely.
"Hoo ......"
The breeze blew, and the still white clouds in the sky began to ripple, and Chen Zi, who was sitting on it, couldn't help frowning.
There are signs that he is getting deeper and deeper into this illusory world.
The capital of the Great Song Dynasty.
This city, which used to be noisy and full of people, is exceptionally quiet today. Even the clouds floating in the sky seemed to be extremely oppressive.
A heavy weight weighed on the hearts of everyone in the capital.
The main hall of the Royal Palace.
Emperor Song Yi was sitting on the Nine Dragons chair with a cold face, his eyes shining through the wide hall and looking directly at the earthy yellow city wall in the distance.
He clearly knew that outside the city wall, there were 100,000 elite soldiers of the Shenwei King looking around the capital, and the murderous spirit and fighting spirit of the opposing army were boiling all the time.
Above the main hall, the civil and military officials fought to be separated on both sides, and everyone hung their heads down, not saying a word, only a wordless frustration back and forth in the hall.
After a long time, Song Yi's eyes quietly turned around, and his gaze fell on the civil and military officials in the main hall.
Just looking at his appearance, no one could have imagined that the emperor at this time was just a fourteen-year-old spoon-dancing boy, and his resolute face, wise eyes, and majestic momentum would also make people forget his age for the first time.
Since he ascended the throne, the little emperor has repeatedly made unexpected moves, killing his uncle and mother, reforming government decrees, and cleaning the court, and every step he takes has touched the interests of some people.
But this little emperor seems to have been born with a pair of discerning eyes, can easily see the flaws of the opponent, and the decree issued by the resolute can easily sweep away all obstacles.
This emperor, in terms of the ability to govern alone, has always been invincible in all dynasties and generations!
Even in the last days of the dynasty, there are many people in the court who are convinced that the current emperor will be able to reverse the situation and sweep away the rebellion. Create the great Song Dynasty again.
However, providence makes people, in recent years, there have been many strange people in the world, the invincible brave generals in the world, the literary saints, and the Danqing saints, it seems that all the geniuses of the millennium have emerged at this time.
Especially the Shenwei King Liu Chaoen, the god of fire will Sun Zimei, and it is an outlier between heaven and earth, and the two of them joined forces to pull out a large number of elite soldiers in the cold land of the northwest, and swept the world with this.
Under the scorching artillery shells, not only the Great Song Dynasty, but all the strength in the world trembled, and the firearms battalion of the Shenwei Army replaced the Xuantie Army of the Great Song Dynasty to the position of the first army in the world.
The army of the Kamui King, like a demon from hell, wielded flames and swept away all opposition in front of them in an unreasonable manner.
Under his army, Song Yi's wisdom was powerless to resist!
Just today, the army of Liu Chaoen, the king of Shenwei, besieged the Jingshi, and the 100,000 soldiers and generals guarding the capital of the Great Song Dynasty all fell into silence.
"How long has it been!"
Song Yi's eyes were still sharp when he glanced at the ministers, but the voice in his mouth was a little hoarse.
"Back to Your Majesty, it's been three days. ”
Wei Dehai glanced at the ministers below him, and saw that all of them lowered their heads and no one said a word, so he had to move his steps cautiously and speak slowly.
The Shenwei army outside the city has besieged the capital for three days, but during the three days, the Shenwei army has not taken the initiative to attack, only a secret letter from Liu Chaoen was sent to Song Yi.
"It seems that Liu Chaoen's heart to kill me will not die!"
Song Yi's eyes darkened, and his raised head finally lowered slightly.
"Your Majesty!"
Wei Dehai's body shook, and he suddenly fell to his knees, howling and crying.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, even if you fight for the life of the old slave, you will definitely protect Your Majesty to escape from the capital!"
Wang Dayong, a eunuch dressed as a military general, followed closely, kneeling on the ground with red eyes and roaring, and the clanging sound of a body of armor leaves colliding back and forth.
"Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty gives an order, the last general will lead his troops out of the city and fight to the death with that traitor!"
Sun Zhi of the Imperial Forest Army also stepped forward, clenched his fists with both hands, and shouted.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to live and die with the imperial court!"
"Your Majesty, stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood!"
“......”
"That's it!"
With Wei Dehai's cry, the hall instantly set off an uproar, bustling like a disturbance, which also made Song Yi's heart irritable, and he suddenly roared.
After the roar, a deep sense of powerlessness came to his mind again, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of bitterness.
"What's the use? In this world, after all, we still have to rely on force to speak, and it is the principle of heaven that the stronger is stronger! I now understand that stratagem is just a helpless choice when there is insufficient strength. ”
"Your Majesty!"
Wei Dehai's body trembled, and he raised his head in horror, as if he had guessed Song Yi's plan.
"Your Majesty still has most of the country, tens of thousands of loyal subjects, take a step back today, we may not lose, we may not lose!"
"Not necessarily?"
Song Yi shook his head with a wry smile.
"The firearms battalion in Sun Zimei's hands can blast through any fortified city in the world within an hour!
"Besides, if I retreat today, the troubles of the world will continue, and the people will still suffer. It is better to take what Liu Chaoen said, and take the initiative to surrender. ”
"In this way, Liu Chaoen can dominate the world in the shortest possible time, save the people from suffering, and leave me a better reputation. ”
As soon as Song Yi said this, there was immediately chaos in the hall, and there was that indignant.
"Your Majesty, no!"
"The surname Liu wants to deceive him with words, Your Majesty must not believe him!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured, the last general will escort you out of the capital safely, take a step back today, and we will counterattack the capital again in the future!"
There are also those who are worried about the world, bowing their heads and saying nothing, their faces full of sadness.
More often than not, they wave their arms and shout indiscriminately, so that people can't know what they really think.
"That's it!"
This time, Song Yi didn't yell, but just waved his hands weakly down.
"Don't say it, I've thought a lot about it in the past three days, and I think I've made it clear enough. ”
Secretly, he added.
He really understands, just like when he woke up in a dream and understood the way of politics and economy, this time he understood how to make a choice in the face of life and death.
"Grandpa Wei?"
"The old slave is here!"
Wei Dehai hung his head and pressed against the ground.
"How about walking with me?"
Looking at the person around him with white hair and a bent and deformed back, Song Yi's eyes couldn't help but reveal a sense of tenderness.
"This is the honor of the old slave!"
Wei Dehai raised his head, and his wrinkled cheeks were already full of tears.
"Your Majesty, Wechen is also willing to ......"
Wang Da staggered forward two steps, and he wanted to fall to his knees.
"No need, you better stay, I believe that the new king still has a place to use you. Although Liu Chaoen is unkind, he is not a person who kills indiscriminately, and Wang Daban does not have to die with me. ”
Song Yi pressed down with one hand, stopping Wang Dayong's movements, and at the same time blocking the impulse of others.
"General Sun. ”
"The last general!"
"After I'm gone, I want some people to accompany me, you can do this!"
Song Yi's eyes narrowed, and a cold killing intent came out of his body.
There were some people who he was forced to keep their lives, but to this day, nothing can stop him.
"Subordinates obey!"
Sun Zhi knocked his head on the ground, banging and clanging, and the sound of reply was even more sad.
"Father-in-law Wei, please bring me the books I have written in the past few years. I think, the new emperor, should be able to use the things on it. ”
"Yes! Your Majesty. ”
Wei Dehai slowly got up from the ground, bowed respectfully, and turned to go to the apse.
A day later, the Great Song Emperor Song Yichan let the edict spread all over the world.
The next day, Song Yi, who was honored as Emperor Wenying Dao of Yuanbao Shengwen, was accompanied by Wei Dehai, the chief eunuch, and Song Temple.
"I have been in power for nearly ten years, and I have been overthrown by the world, and people's livelihood has been difficult. Now I look down on the hearts of the people, look up at astronomy, and know that my fate is not in me, but in Shenwei Wang Liu. ”
"The trip of the husband's avenue, the world is for the public, and the selection of talents is in the ability, so the sages are all based on Zen concession. Today, I want to emulate the sages and follow the ancestors, and Zen is located in the Shenwei King Liu Chaoen!"
Wang Da held the holy decree in his hand and read aloud the contents of the edict of the previous emperor.
Above the main hall, Liu Chaoen sat on the nine-dragon chair, looking at the civil and military officials of His Highness expressionlessly, and only when his eyes swept over Sun Zimei, who was the first on the left, he would pause slightly.
"A month later, it's a good day, the enthronement ceremony, let's arrange it on that day!"
"Yes, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty. ”
Wang Dayong was stunned, his body retreated slightly, and he arched respectfully.
"Zimei, come with me to the apse. ”
Liu Chaoen waved his hand casually, and let all the courtiers retreat, leaving only Sun Zimei.
"Yes!"
