Chapter Ninety-Four: The Last Skeleton King
Ten years have passed in a flash.
Since the Great seized the Nineteen Heavenly Dynasty Saints, the speed of the army to conquer the world has been much faster, and in just ten years, nearly half of the northern part of the Wheel Territory belongs to the Great Holy Court.
This speed is terrifying! The Holy Court that came out of a small world has never been so exaggerated.
The speed of this expansion made the northern part of the Wheel Territory suddenly endanger everyone in the Celestial Empire.
Changjing, the Temple of Immortality!
Zhong Shan sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers below.
"Holy King, I am at this moment, it is not appropriate to fight the world again!", Xiao forgot to report.
"Oh?"
"The territory can still be expanded, but now there is still an urgent shortage of talents, and the huge territory occupied must be defended, if it cannot be defended, it is difficult to ensure that the morale of the military and people in the frontier is weakened, and it is necessary to rest and recuperate to consolidate the central power and expand again!" Xiao Wang affirmed.
As General Xiao said, our territory is expanding too fast, we must strengthen the centralization of power, and the army must also be increased again, and more powerful soldiers will be screened out, and the army needs to rest and recuperate, and the people also need to rest. Besides, the remaining half of the territory in the north is too tight, and they will join forces to fight against it, but as long as they are left alone, their contradictions will slowly ignite. After our dynasty rests, we will completely take the northern part of the Wheel Territory!" Yi Yan echoed.
Tapping lightly on the dragon chair, Zhong Shan nodded and said, "Accurate!"
At the same time, the Wheel Territory was southern. God-given Mansion.
The third prince Nianben, Wang Jingwen, and a group of officials stood respectfully.
In front of them was an old eunuch, and beside them stood two purple-robed men.
The old eunuch had just made a decree. Deliver the decree.
"Third Prince, the Holy King is very dissatisfied with you!," the old eunuch whispered.
Nian Ben frowned and nodded.
"These two are two Gu Immortals who were transferred from the Imperial Martial Arts Hall, and they will be available for you to dispatch in the future, although the Holy King is dissatisfied with the Third Prince, he still cares about the Third Prince, no prince has ever been able to dispatch two Gu Immortals at once! You are the first!" the old eunuch said with a smile.
"Thank you Saint King for me!" The third prince's face also softened.
"Si, the old slave will be, I have also announced the holy decree and will hand it over to you the third prince next, I will also take my leave and go back to report to the holy king!" said the old eunuch.
"I'll send you!"
"No!" the old eunuch flickered and disappeared in front of everyone.
"Meet the third prince!, the two purple-robed men behind the old eunuch before bowed slightly to Nian Ben.
"Well!,"Let's rest here for the time being!," It's all up to the third prince!,"Come on, send the two of you to the Tianzi Garden to rest!," the third prince ordered.
"Yes!"
Soon, the two Gu Immortal masters were sent away.
"Third Prince, I also went to lead the army, and there are four large-scale battles today that require my approval!" Wang Jingwen said.
"Go!, recite the path of peace and goodness.
Wang Jingwen nodded and walked away.
As soon as Wang Jingwen left, the third prince's face also became gloomy. Grasping the holy decree, his brows furrowed.
"Third Prince, in the Holy Decree, the Holy King has praised Wang Jingwen many times, but he has repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with the Third Prince, which is very intriguing!
"Worried about what?"
"I'm worried that the Holy King will withdraw you to the Wuxiang Territory and let Wang Jing ** this feudal official!," the official said.
Nian Ben's pupils shrank, shook his head and said, "Impossible!"
Nian Ben knew that it was impossible to be a descendant of the Saint King's bloodline because no matter how strong King Jingwen was, he was just a foreign minister. But this matter cannot be guarded against, even if Wang Jingwen does not become the official of this feudal territory, he may be replaced by others. The Phaseless Holy Court does not need useless people, and it is too useless to behave too much, and it is possible that the Holy King will remove him from the position of crown prince in the future.
"But, Third Prince!, "Okay, don't say any more! This is the end of this topic!"
"Yes!, the officials could only nod their heads.
Three days later, Wang Jingwen brought a batch of materials to Nian Ben.
"The third prince's big exam in the Tianci Mansion this time, I have gathered this large number of talents, I have marked them with red lines, and the ten cities I have just won, I feel that the people on the red line are the safest. Wang Jingwen said.
The third prince took a closer look at the list in the jade slip!
Looking at these names, Nian Ben frowned slightly, because this group of people, although they are talents, they have all held a banquet for Wang Jingwen after the big exam, and Wang Jingwen has also been there a few times, these people are Wang Jingwen's descendants?
Thinking of this, Nian Ben's expression tightened, Wang Jingwen is cultivating his power?
"Well, these people, I still have a lot of use in keeping them, the last thirty people on this batch of lists, aren't they also very good in the big exam? Let them go!" Nian Ben said in a deep voice.
"Huh?" Wang Jingwen's face changed.
Sure enough! Nian Ben showed a sneer in his heart. Sure enough, this group of people is your descendant, but fortunately I can see it.
"Yes!" Wang Jingwen nodded. Although he didn't say anything, a hint of loss flashed in his tone.
Seeing off Wang Jingwen and thinking about running to a happy mood! Yes, cultivating a descendant, no matter how much credit you Wang Jingwen has made and how much territory you have laid, as long as it is my cronies who are in charge of these territories, what can you do?
Not mentioning Nian Ben's pride, Wang Jingwen also showed a sneer after leaving the Tianci Mansion.
"The person you choose is the one who will kill you in the future!" Wang Jingwen sneered and went straight to the commander-in-chief's camp.
Compared with Wang Jingwen's strategy, the third prince is obviously far inferior.
And the big war in the south, under the planning of Wang Jingwen, expanded wildly, without the slightest rest, it seemed to open up territory for the Phaseless Holy Court, but what was hidden inside it was an extremely vicious plan, although it had gained a large territory, it was unstable, and there would be great trouble in the future!
11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 The Holy Land of Bones!
In a large hall in the Holy Land of Bones, there were a total of five golden thrones surrounding it at this moment.
If Zhong Shan was here, he would be surprised to find that the style of this golden throne was very similar to the bronze throne of Wang Skull, only one was gold and the other was bronze.
On top of the five golden thrones, each of them sat a black-robed figure at this moment, but the armrest of the golden throne was not a human hand at all, but a skull claw. This is the powerhouse of the Five Skeleton Clan.
The door of the main hall was closed, and none of the five skeleton powerhouses in the main hall spoke at this moment.
After a moment of silence, one of the skeletons spoke.
"Well, there are no outsiders here, what do you think about this?" said one of the skeletons.
"The Great Sage, Commander of the Ninth Legion, King Skull, he also has the Skeleton Throne, apparently coming out of the Skeleton Alliance. Another skeleton spoke.
"According to various intelligence, Wang Skull's soul fire is very high-level, this is not something that can be determined by cultivation, this is a precious status symbol. Who the hell is he?" said another skeleton.
"It's strange that that kind of soul fire is only available to the descendants of my Skeleton King!" the first skeleton said again.
"Descendants of the king, no, I have seen the descendants of the king, skeletons ignited by the fire of the king's soul, although the fire of his soul is diluted, but I think the flame of the soul of the king's descendants is not as good as the king's skeleton!"
"Wang Skull, Great Immortal, was subdued by Zhong Shan in the Xiaoqian World, its origin is very mysterious!, but why is its soul fire so high?" the first skeleton said again.
"It is impossible for the skeletons of the small world to grow to that point, only the skeletons of the large thousand worlds enter, but when did the great world have this skeleton? The soul fire is so advanced, he should have been invited to the sect a long time ago, and even become an elder of the general alliance! How could he be reduced to being a willing minister?"
The skeletons fell silent.
"Old Five, you haven't spoken, we have the most knowledgeable here, what do you say?" the first skeleton asked again.
All the skeletons looked at the smallest black-robed skeleton to the south.
"I, tsk, I don't know what to say!" Old Five was embarrassed for a while.
"What's not to say, the five of us have all saved each other's lives, and there's nothing we can't say. The first skeleton said again.
"I have a guess, but I don't believe it myself, but I can't think of anything else besides this guess!"
"Let's talk! We listened to you slowly, and your guess has not been missed. 」
All the skeletons looked at the fifth child.
"Ninety hundred thousand years ago, what happened to my skeleton clan, do you still know about it?" said the fifth.
"Ninety hundred thousand years ago?" said a skeleton wondering.
"I'd love to hear it. At that time, the king of the skeleton clan was not the current king, but the previous king, but the previous king suddenly fell for some reason, and a new king was born, which is the current king!" the first skeleton thought for a moment.
"The boss is right, the previous king died, and a new king was born, but do you know that the situation was that the new king overthrew the position of the previous king and replaced the previous king. The fifth said.
"The new king overthrew the previous king's position, which means that the current king, the throne was snatched by rebelling against the previous queen?" the first skeleton said in surprise.
"Yes, this is a secret in the skeleton clan, and for hundreds of thousands of years, it has always been a taboo for the king, no one dares to mention it, the previous generation of kings has fallen? No, the previous generation of kings has disappeared, and the king has actually sent his cronies and skeletons to find the whereabouts of the previous generation of kings for hundreds of thousands of years, and it was not until 100,000 years ago that this search was loosened!" said Lao Wu.
"Old Five, do you mean that Wang Skull is the king of the previous generation?" the boss said in surprise.
The other skeletons were also horrified.
"King Skull, King Skull, Skeleton King, Isn't the name of King Skull always hinting at his status?" said the fifth man in a deep voice. !......!
