Not long after, the disciples of the Hidden Sword Sect and the Haoyue Sect began to descend the mountain in large numbers at the same time, rushing to the Four Directions Divine World, and they were both shouldering a major mission.

Half a year later, the monks of the Shenzhou world began to increase like a carp crossing the river, these people come from different sources, the factions are huge, and they claim to be loose cultivators, and according to the investigation of people with intentions, they found that these monks who suddenly appeared are ordinary people who had no power at all before, they grew up rapidly within half a year, and the fast ones are now congenital monks, and the slow ones are already acquired triple.

And the monarchs of many small countries also found that their subjects had also begun to cultivate, and how could they cultivate without the skill of the sword technique?

Finally, this situation was noticed by several major immortal kingdoms, and after investigation, they found that there were tens of thousands of disciples of the two sects of the Hidden Sword Sect and the Haoyue Sect walking in the Divine World, teaching the way of cultivation, but they did not pass on the most important inheritance of the sect, but after screening, they passed on all the exercises that could be cultivated all the time and would not be strong enough to affect the two sects.

But it is worth mentioning that after investigating this matter, the major immortal kingdoms actually acquiesced in the practices of the two sects, not only did not interfere, but also announced a higher-level exercise method in their own country, which caused a sensation, and the grand occasion of the whole people cultivating immortals in the Shenzhou world was coming.

According to the statistics of people with a heart, the Hidden Sword Sect and the Haoyue Sect have a total of ten kinds of sword techniques, and the most cultivated sword techniques for monks in the entire Shenzhou World are actually these ten kinds of sword techniques that can only be regarded as medium-level sword techniques in the eyes of the Immortal Kingdom, and even many monks use the same kind of sword techniques.

Although it was the disciples of the two sects who taught the cultivation method in the Divine World, these ordinary people who had been inherited were not considered disciples of the two sects.

And not long after this incident, another major event alarmed the major immortal countries, that is, the Qi State actually formed an alliance with the Qin State, and the Qin State sent 100,000 soldiers to the coast of the East China Sea of the Qi State to resist the demon clan.

Half. Although the reinforcements from the Qi Imperial Court were still being sent to Shougui City, not only did the crack in the demon world not show the slightest sign of stability, but countless demon beasts emerged from it a month ago, although these demon beasts were only at the innate level, no one dared to guarantee that the next time it appeared would be a grandmaster-level demon beast.

In the Chu State, the South Vietnam Desert also broke out in the Demon Plague, and like Shou Turtle City, the Demon Plague in the South Yue Desert was also very serious. Even at the moment of the outbreak, the South Vietnamese desert defenders had no time to react at all, and were besieged by countless demon beasts flooding the desert, and were almost annihilated, but fortunately, the reinforcements arrived in time. Repelled the demon beasts and retreated to the city of Nanyue.

At the same time, the matter of the ancestor sacrifices of the major immortal kingdoms gradually spread. Everyone was amazed. Why are the Great Ancestor Sacrifices of the major immortal countries being held at the same time? And the major immortal countries also released a word, during the period of the High Ancestor Festival, no monks above the level of the Sword Sect of other countries are allowed to enter their own countries.

Although many small forces and ordinary people did not feel anything strange, those medium-sized countries and forces already faintly felt the slightest bit wrong.

From the Haoyue Sect of the Hidden Sword Sect to the mountain to preach the law, and then to the ancestor sacrifices of the various immortal countries, I think of the demons of Qi and Chu. As much as they don't want to admit it, they have to face a very real problem, and that is that they must prepare for a big war between the shemale races.

A year later, the demon plague worsened. A grandmaster-level demon beast appeared in the crack of the Demon Realm of Qi Guoshou Turtle City, but fortunately it was only one, and the situation was still under control.

The South Vietnam Desert broke out a terrifying sandstorm, which lasted for half a month and covered a radius of more than 100 miles from Nanyue City, turning the entire Nanyue City into a desert within more than 100 miles, and in the desert, there are all kinds of monsters that can kill people.

Due to the affairs of the coast of the East China Sea and the desert of South Vietnam, the demon light of the other cracks has not been attacked by the monks, so it is quite stable for the time being, but except for the Hangu Valley and the Lingji Valley, all the cracks in the demon world have been heavily guarded by the major immortal countries.

As for Hangu and Lingji Valley, there was no demon light in these two places at all, so the major immortal kingdoms did not pay attention to it, but the Haoyue Sect of the Hidden Sword Sect still ordered the disciples who guarded the two cracks not to be negligent.

The appearance of demon light means danger, and it means that the seal crack leading to the human world in the demon world is about to change.

Two years later, the Qin State transferred back the army originally sent to the Qi State, and the original 100,000 people were only more than 50,000 at this time, but they were already the elite of the elite, but at the same time as these 50,000 people were transferred back, the second batch of 100,000 recruits from the Qin State was sent to the Qi State again.

At this time, the relationship between the two countries was already very harmonious, especially the relationship between the soldiers of the two countries, after a year of fighting side by side, they both had a kind of brotherly friendship.

When the second batch of troops was sent to the Qi State and the first batch of troops returned, Ying Zixu suddenly made a move that shocked the entire Shenzhou world again.

Yes, Ying Zixu wants to unify those small countries in the Shenzhou world, incorporate them into the territory of Qin, and strengthen Qin's strength.

This move is undoubtedly crazy, and it is even very likely to attract the joint opposition of the major immortal countries, but at this time, someone stood up and said something, which immediately made the major immortal kingdoms react in the same way as Ying Zixu.

"Today's demon plague is aggravated, it is very likely to usher in a demon war, and the Shenzhou world can no longer face a unified and powerful demon clan in a divided situation, so the seven immortal kingdoms should unify the Shenzhou world and unite to face the upcoming war. The one who said this turned out to be Xuan Qing, the sect leader of the Hidden Sword Sect, and the next day, Qin Ke, the sect leader of the Haoyue Sect, said the same thing as the Hidden Sword Sect.

Of course, it is impossible to completely unify, the seven immortal kingdoms of the Shenzhou world, if they want to unify into one country, it is simply wishful thinking, but the hundreds of small countries all over the Shenzhou world can be unified under the names of the major immortal countries.

As a result, expansion, merger, conquest, using force to intimidate, using diplomatic means to negotiate peace, and using military forces to directly forcibly annex them, within half a year, more than 50 small countries were successively incorporated into the Seven Great Immortal Kingdoms.

The remaining dozens of small countries formed an alliance to resist the annexation of the Immortal Kingdom, but this was undoubtedly a mantis arm blocking the car, only increasing casualties.

Ten of the more than 40 small countries in the alliance were soon overthrown by the rebellious people because of the expropriation and extortion, which led to civil riots. In the end, it was divided by the Seven Immortal Kingdoms that took advantage of the situation.

Although the last thirty or so small countries were restrained after this incident, it was only a matter of time before they were annexed in the face of the soldiers of the Seven Great Immortal Kingdoms.

Three years later, the Shenzhou world was unified, and the seven immortal kingdoms completely unified the entire Shenzhou world map, especially the Qin country, and the power of the country was no less than three times larger than before, and the national strength of the Qin State was also rapidly recovering, and the various small power sect families were attached one after another, so that the national strength of the Qin State suddenly caught up with the seven great immortal countries. However, the overall national strength is still insufficient.

In the past three years, the state of Chu has successively increased its troops by nearly 500,000 in the desert of Nanyue, and finally curbed the expansion of the demon beasts into the interior, and in the case of dispatching various magic tools to improve the environment, the spread of the desert has also been firmly blocked around the city of Nanyue.

The monarch of Chu at this time. I felt great pressure, and in the process of unifying the world of Shenzhou this time. The state of Chu benefited the least. Without it, because on the one hand, the Chu State had to face the demon plague that had broken out in the South Yue Desert, and on the other hand, it had to guard against the cracks in the demon world of Yun Mengze.

This left the Chu State without the spare strength to carry out the annexation, so the Chu State benefited the least from it.

"Alas, was it too reckless to send troops to destroy the Qin State back then?" Chu Junxiang Tongtian held his forehead, looking a little irritable.

"Your Majesty, the army was sent to destroy Qin back then to settle old grievances. There is no right or wrong. The prime minister said on the side.

"But now I have the people of Chu State to bear two cracks in the demon world, which is really beyond my strength. Xiang Tongtian said.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that he could send an envoy to the Qin State, so he said that the Chu State was willing to return the territory of the Qin State that he had occupied. But the Qin State must regain the responsibility for the Yunmengze crack. The prime minister said.

"I'm afraid the prime minister is old. Xiang Tongtian looked at the prime minister and said: "I destroyed the Qin State back then, this is the enemy of destroying the country, how can the Qin Jun take the initiative to abandon this enemy of the country just for the territory of the old Qin?"

"Your Majesty, the minister is not old, Your Majesty only needs to issue an edict of guilt, and then send an envoy to the Qin State to return the territory" Before the prime minister finished speaking, Xiang Tongtian suddenly stood up.

"Guilty edict?" Xiang Tongtian looked at the prime minister, full of suppressed anger, "I destroyed the Qin State back then, but to avenge the eternal revenge, I still want to issue a guilty edict today? Prime Minister, are you old and confused?"

The prime minister's face remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that tall trees are very strong and hard, and the grass under the trees is very humble and weak, but once a strong wind blows, the tall and strong trees will definitely be blown down by the strong wind, and the weak grass under the trees can survive the strong wind." When a person is alive, the body is soft, but after a person dies, the body is stiff, blindly reckless, that is the way of death, and the appropriate weakness, rigidity and softness, is the long-term strategy, Your Majesty is the respect of the Ninety-Five, is the strongest in the world, but the rigidity is very easy to break, strong is broken, the way of eternity, lies in the weakness of the moment, if it can make my Chu State continue to be the foundation for thousands of years, not to mention that Your Majesty has sinned against himself, that is, let the old minister use his head to change, it is also worth it. ”

The prime minister's words made Xiang Tongtian's anger gradually subside, how could he not understand the simple truth in this?

Xiang Tongtian sat down and said with a smile: "What the prime minister said, then let's do what the prime minister said, isn't it just a criminal edict, my majesty is, but Prime Minister, are you sure that the Qin State will take over Yun Mengze's defense by doing this?"

The prime minister was expressionless, but there was a lot of confidence in his eyes, "They will." ”

Qi State, on the coast of the East China Sea, the head of Shougui City is overgrown with weeds, and the city wall originally built of blue bricks has been completely dyed red by blood at this time.

Outside the city, rotting corpses and dry bones were all over the field, and the corpses of demon beasts were piled up under Shougui City.

The entire stretch of the city wall has long been dilapidated, and Shougui City can hold on for three years, in addition to hundreds of thousands of Qi soldiers who have forgotten their lives and deaths, there are also many Qi countries to help them disperse.

As well as the army of the Qin State, which also played a significant role in it.

'Boom', the entire Shougui City was filled with rancid smell, and the people of Qi in the city were also evacuated to Wuyan City close to the interior of Qi in the past three years.

There was a rumbling sound, and the soldiers of the Qi State standing on the city tower couldn't help but look at the city wall on the left with numb faces, where a section of the city wall began to collapse, and some soldiers resting on it were buried inside along with the collapsed wall bricks.

"Quick, help. "The army from the Qin State quickly came to the collapsed city wall under the command of the general at this time and began to cut bricks to save people.

In the past few days, it is not uncommon for the city wall to collapse, and a section of the city wall has collapsed almost every day.

Yang Zhengxin sat on the head of the ruined city with one of the remaining Sword Sect deputy generals and two other generals beside him. Two of his other adjutant generals had died in battle a month earlier, and their bones were in the dry bones that were almost piled up under the city.

"Shougui City can't hold it anymore, the city wall has collapsed seriously in recent days, even if it is temporarily repaired, it can't prevent a wave of impact from tens of thousands of demon beasts. Yang Zhengxin frowned and said, in the past three years, his black hair has been gray temples.

"It's that the morale of the soldiers is very low. "Another general is Zou Zhengwu, who arrived three years ago, and as for Shan Tianting, he is in charge of the second city near the coast of the East China Sea, 'Linhai City'.

"How many soldiers do we have now?" Yang Zhengxin asked.

"Eighty thousand," Zou Zhengwu said. The corners of his mouth were bitter for a while, eighty thousand, which sounds like a lot, but in fact, in the face of a daily surge. The number of demon beasts in the hundreds of thousands, 80,000 seems so insignificant.

"General. General Shan has a military order to issue. "At this time. A herald ran up the tower and handed Yang Zhengxin a jade slip in his hand.

Although Zou Zhengwu's military rank is greater than Yang Zhengxin's, after three years of fighting side by side, the two have long been indistinguishable from each other.

After Yang Zhengxin saw it, his face was a little heavy, and there was still a hint of resistance.

"What's wrong?" Zou Zhengwu asked.

Yang Zhengxin handed the jade slip in his hand to Zou Zhengwu. Said: "General Shan told us to evacuate Shougui City and retreat to Linhai City. ”

"That's a good thing. Zou Zhengwu said, "In this way, let these 80,000 soldiers retreat to Linhai City to rest." And the defense on the side of Linhai City is very strong, and the soldiers have been fighting for three years in a row, and they are already exhausted. ”

Listening to Zou Zhengwu's words, Yang Zhengxin didn't speak, he was silent.

Zou Zhengwu looked at Yang Zhengxin, his brows furrowed slightly, and in an instant he seemed to understand something, and his eyes looked at the mountains of dry bones outside the city, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Ten thousand years later, when the water of the East China Sea washes away these bones, when the water of the East China Sea washes away the bloodstains on this city wall, who else will remember what happened today?" Zou Zhengwu said this, and instantly a desolation rose in the hearts of everyone present.

"But in spite of this, we have to do it, don't we? If we don't make these efforts today, I'm afraid there won't be any more human epochs. After Zou Zhengwu finished speaking, he left the city, "I'll go see the soldiers and arrange the evacuation." ”

"General Zou is right, although in 10,000 years, no one will remember everything that happened here today, but at least, our efforts today can continue to continue our heritage, and it is worth it. "Meng Ming, he is the general of the 100,000 new army sent by the Qin State, and he is also the descendant of the general Meng Tian of the Qin State, the four brothers of their Meng family, Meng De, Meng Fei, Meng Gu, and Meng Ming, fled to the State of Qi when the State of Chu destroyed the State of Qin, three years ago the State of Qin was founded, and the four brothers returned to the State of Qin, and they were all valued by Bai Qi, guiding them to practice, and teaching the art of war, so this time the youngest of the four brothers, Meng Ming, served as the general of the time.

Seeing that Yang Zhengxin was still absent-minded, Meng Ming also stood up and shouted loudly towards the city wall of the four directions: "Even if there are a million demon beasts on the other side, the 100,000 soldiers of my Qin State will always be with the warriors of the Qi Kingdom, and you are the bravest." ”

After speaking, Meng Ming gave a military salute to all the Qi soldiers guarding the city wall, at this moment, all the Qi soldiers felt that there seemed to be a hot feeling in their eyes, but they suppressed this feeling and returned a military salute to Meng Ming, their faces were no longer numb, and they regained their brilliance.

Yang Zhengxin looked at this scene and sighed slightly, "General Yang, I'll go see the soldiers over there first." After Meng Ming finished speaking, he also left.

Only Yang Zhengxin and his lieutenant general were left here, "You say, what's the point of us defending Shougui City for three years? After so many people have died, so much blood and sweat have been paid, and in the end, we still have to give up this city that we swear to defend to the death, what is the point?"

The adjutant general of the "General" had slightly red eyes, thinking of his brothers who had died in the past three years, and today, when they were going to evacuate here and go to the rear to rest, his heart hurt as if he was being pinched.

"All right, go down and let the brethren know. Yang Zhengxin waved his hand and said.

The next day, the entire Shougui City was preparing for the evacuation, and the whole city was filled with a sense of sadness, and many people were reluctant to do so, because their brother Pao Ze was destined to lie on this cold land forever.

'Roar. Suddenly, the 80,000 soldiers who were assembling heard an angry roar not far outside the city, and from the majesty of this roar, there was a strong oppression.

"Grandmaster-level demon beast. Yang Zhengxin, Meng Ming, and Zou Zhengwu's faces changed in an instant.

"Ready to defend. Yang Zhengxin shouted, these soldiers who had been fighting with demon beasts for three years reacted quickly, and in just a few dozen breaths, 80,000 soldiers had already stabilized the city wall.

"General, look. Yang Zhengxin and the three of them walked quickly to the city tower, and a soldier pointed to the seaside in the distance and said.

"That's" Yang Zhengxin and the three of them stared at each other, only to see that in the rough sea, a huge grandmaster-level demon beast was standing in the air, roaring in front of him, and with each roar, there would be an extremely strong power emanating out, oppressing the entire Shougui City.

"What a strong grandmaster-level demon beast. Zou Zhengwu's face was extremely solemn, the power of this grandmaster-level demon beast was definitely able to crush the three ordinary human sword sects.

"Look, there are people. Meng Ming shouted, only to see that in front of the demon beast, a monk in white clothes Sheng Xue, green silk as ink, tall and tall, holding a simple long sword in his hand, and a small black dog standing on his shoulder, was confronting the grandmaster-level demon beast on the sea.
