Minghuang Prefecture.

As the central territory of the northwest land and the five major states, dynasties and political centers have always been established here since ancient times.

There are a total of five prefectures and thirty-four cities under his command.

Among them, every prefecture and city has centuries-old families and thousand-year-old powerful families based here.

now
The largest ancient pass in Minghuang Prefecture, the Tianlao Pass, guarded by the Huweihou, was submerged by a black tide of armored vehicles.
Almost all the forces in Minghuang Prefecture, even the Divine Blood, dispatched personnel without exception to the faction standing outside the pass, secretly communicating with them, either openly or covertly.

At this point, almost anyone with a discerning eye can see the "situation" clearly.

With the power of two states, he almost controls half of the country, and has long been in contact with those "Dongtian" ancestors who have never returned. In today's Tongye State, the "Great Demon Lord", or Tongye Gong
He can already be called the 'Lord of the World'.

As for the rest.

For example, the two states of Dongfang Fuyao and Changbai.

First, the descendants of the Great Xuan surrendered early, so that they could attack from the east before the Tongye Army approached Shenjing.

The 'General Chongtian' Huang Longdao, who was farther away, heard that Baoping had surrendered and Li Taxian was unstoppable and was heading towards Shenjing. He barely had a moment to breathe and did not leave time for others.
Almost without hesitation, he submitted the letter of surrender.

He also expressed deep remorse for selling out the Wuwei faction's list to Dayin, which led to Mr. Tongye being hunted down by Dayin and almost falling into danger.

Then he gave up the title of a prince of a state, passed it on to his subordinates, shaved his head and became a monk, crossed the sea to the west to "Jiangnan", and disappeared without a trace, and he didn't even have the ambition to rely on the cave to fight with "Li Taxian".

Half of the "Red Eyebrow Army" under his command joined the "Great Mysterious Sage" Chen Baikui, integrated the eastern factions, responded to the Tongye order, and attacked the Shenxue regime that was surrounded by enemies on all sides.

The other half built 300 warships and 800 merchant ships, and took millions of people across the East China Sea to the "Jiangnan" area to follow.
For a time,

The only place in the world that still resists is Minghuang Prefecture.

Minghuang Prefecture, Tianlao Pass!
It is a vast area in the northwest and the most important pass in the world.

Once upon a time, the 'Great Mysterious Military Saint' Chen Baikui stood here. In the era when the real person had not yet been born, he defeated the Divine Blood Alliance for a whole year. It was difficult to cross this place. It was the most important and only gateway before Shenjing.

Whoever can cross this barrier will have a smooth journey ahead, and if they can get here, their eternal hegemony will basically be accomplished.

now
After seven days of fierce fighting.

The 'black armor torrent' brought together by the treasure bottle and the paulownia leaves has completely defeated the coalition forces formed by the 'Tiger Power Cavalry', the 'Grand Master's Mansion' and the 'Dragon Elephant Secret Sect' in this 'Heavenly Prison Pass'.

Therefore, the flag on the city wall was changed to have the word "Li" hung on it.

As for the instigator of it all.

At this time, he was crossing the city gate and stepping on the vast yellow sand. Step by step, he was forcing a man with disheveled hair, broken armor, and disheveled face to death.

It is the Great Demon Lord, Tongye Gong
Li Taxian!
by his side.

Luo Fuyao, Feng Zizai, Xu Ruotong, Li Chengzhen, Meng Ke, Mu Qianqiu
These outstanding people, some of whom rose from humble beginnings like him, some came from powerful families, some were impressed by him, and some received gifts from him and thus served under him, are all at the level of true men.

Moreover, they all possess the fourth step of "half-technique"!
At this moment, we are all here.

Completely surround and kill the Marquis Huwei, who was once famous throughout the world but has now become a "defeated general"!

Veins on Hu Weihou's forehead bulged and he was gasping for breath.

He looked at the man who was coming towards him to kill him. He was a young man, no longer naive, but had already experienced the wind and frost of "authority". He was dignified and serious. Even after a long time, he still found it ridiculous.

several years ago.

He went west through Tianlao Pass and achieved immortality. He originally wanted to swallow up Tongyezhou in one gulp and become a local vassal, thus breaking away from the Great Yin and even the divine-blooded half-demon and establishing himself as king.

As a result, that unknown young man shattered his beautiful dream with a single punch, leaving him trapped in this ancient pass for several years!

And now, he has been forced into a desperate situation!

The cave has revived. There used to be "Dharma Seekers" following, as well as higher-level inheritance. In the Northwest Region, hundreds of years later, the only ones who can guarantee the existence of fifth-step Dharma Seekers are the "three sects and two schools" and a handful of individual demon cultivators.

Now, almost half of them, such as the 'Longxiong Sect', 'Golden Winged Dapeng Venerable', and 'Palace Master of Weishui Dragon Palace', a branch of the West Sea Sect.
These powerful people who emerged all stood on the side of Li Taxian and invested in him!
Even though there is a cave in Minghuangzhou, known as "Xuanlu", with the rise of Li Taxian, the founder of the cave had already sent his disciples to help Li Taxian.
For a time, the God Blood camp was almost surrounded by enemies!
I heard that in 'Shenjing', the Taishi Mansion and the Longxiang Secret Sect revived with their practice, abandoned the Daxuan ancestral tomb, and found an 'ancient relic', but it is probably unlikely to reverse the situation.

Think about this.

On his deathbed, looking at Li Taxian and the real person who was more powerful than his palms, Hu Weihou laughed miserably. Knowing that the situation was hopeless, he did not say anything about surrender.

Even though he was once a member of the "Great Xuan Frontier Army" and later a "subject of the Great Yin", and now he is "establishing his own regime", he has already changed his masters three times and does not care about his reputation at all.

But he knew that Li Taxian would never let him go. Otherwise, the soldiers and civilians of Tongye State under his command, who had shed blood over the years, would be the first to refuse.

Just like he was a real person, and although he knew he was no match for Tongyezhou, he still did not run away.

Is it that he can't leave?

He had no choice.

As his status keeps rising and he is placed in this position, there is nowhere to go, forward or backward. Where else can he go except fighting to the death?
If you are not in this position, where will the vast resources, power and wealth come from? If you are not in this position, even if your practice is revived, without the support of people, it will be difficult to make any progress in practice from now on. What is the difference between this and being dead?

The three great demon ancestral tribes of Aquarius were driven to the northwest wilderness, but they still have a way to survive. Although the resources are scarce and barren, there is still a chance for revival.

He is different. Without the fertile land near Tianlao Pass, he can't go anywhere.

The real person who transcends both palms.
It would be easy to stop him.

Even breaking or cracking the interior of his Heavenly Gate wouldn't be difficult.

That year, news came from Tongye Prefecture.

Wan Qingcang, the leader of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance, was trapped in the Wei River, unable to move. How many years have passed? It will not be long before he will turn into a pool of blood and become the spiritual nourishment for Li Taxian.

Such an end is truly miserable and desolate.

It is estimated that in recent years, Wan Qingcang has long regretted his plan to ambush and kill Li Taxian. Otherwise, he could have ended up surviving in the northwest wilderness. He would not have become a real person just now, and before he had the chance to be full of vigor and vitality, he was directly suppressed into a "prisoner", unable to live or die.

In the opinion of Huwei Hou Lu Xiantian.

If it ends up like this.
It would be better to kill yourself directly, and end up as a "hero's end", in the history books, in the glorious dynasty established by Li Taxian in the future.
Add to his name the Marquis of Huwei and Lu Xiantian.

boom! !

There was a sudden loud noise, and Marquis Huwei was determined to die. He broke the halberd in his hand, which was considered a precious weapon. Then he sighed lightly, threw it away, and there was a bit of unwillingness in his eyes.

He looked at Li Taxian, pursed his lips and said nothing.

After a while, he seemed to remember something, and the dark clouds in his mind faded away, and he actually smiled:

"Li Taxian, you are really amazing."

"But, you can rely on your talent and destiny to defeat the princes of the time. Could it be possible that you can also win the 'Dongtian'?"

"Now they are supporting you, but if their interests conflict, how will you deal with it?"

"It's a pity that I won't be able to see that scene."

Ji Xia frowned:

"What do you mean by that?"

But he couldn't wait to find out the result.

Then he saw Lu Xiantian's tiger eyes widened, and the sky gate that appeared on his head suddenly collapsed, his soul split, and his body slowly fell down.

Only at the moment of falling, a strange sneer emanated from the corner of his mouth, blood flowing:

"A fifth-step 'Dharma Seeker' has absorbed a vast amount of spiritual energy. The cave is said to be beyond the mortal world, but after being sealed for hundreds of years, where does their spiritual energy come from?"

"If you want to gain something, you must give something. If you unite so many caves and heavens and 'unify the world', I'm afraid your fate may not be much better than that of King Yin now!"

"Humph!"

In just one breath, Hu Wei Hou committed suicide on the spot. One of the three pillars of the divine blood died here.

But his words.
But it made Ji Xia purse her lips and remain silent, looking outside the Tianlao Pass.

Five years.

From the Longxiong Sect, he roughly understood some of the situations that happened hundreds of years ago.

Eight hundred years ago,
This fertile land is called the 'Northwest Territory'. According to them, there were six orthodox gods from 'Tianque' who once left their heritage here.

Apart from these six, the rest are all "evil heretics" or "unorthodox traditions".

To date, there are three sects and two schools that have revived, namely:
The 'Longxiong School' of Tongyezhou!
The 'Weishui Dragon Palace' in Aquarius State!
The 'Xuanlu Sect' of Minghuang Prefecture!
The 'Skyfire Sect' of Fuyao State!
The 'Hou Tu Zong' of Changbai Prefecture!
These five families all have descendants who have come to Tongye Mansion, and all of them belong to real masters. They also all claim, like "Master Longxiong", to help him establish his rule over the world.

But outsiders, after all, cannot gain the trust of one's own confidants, who one has cultivated personally.

Therefore, Ji Xia not only set up "immortal residences" for these cave-heaven sects to accommodate the immortals who came down the mountain from these five sects to practice meditation, but he also never ordered them around or made requests for anything.

But the existence of "Dongtian" is always a mountain pressing down on our heads.

Those who seek the Dharma can fly into the sky and escape into the earth, which makes Ji Xia extremely fearful.

It is precisely because of this that I tolerate their existence as 'collaborators'. Otherwise, I would have wiped them out long ago.

He had some doubts about the existence of these sects.

Now, the words spoken by Marquis Huwei before his death made him vaguely aware of something.

Can.
But he had no way to control those 'Cave Heaven Patriarchs'.

"For now, we can only take one step at a time."

Ji Xia rubbed his brows and whispered softly.

And at this time.

Luo Fuyao, dressed in a colorful feathered robe, frowned as if she was worried. She clenched her hands in the feathery sleeves of her colorful robe, looked past the corpse of Marquis Hu Wei in front of her, and looked towards the direction of Shenjing which was no longer far away, her eyes moving with a look of worry.

Seeing this, Ji Xia put away his thoughts, took a few steps forward, pulled her sleeve, and said:

"rest assured,"

"When we break into the 'Shenjing', wipe out the blood of the gods, and settle accounts with the half-demons of the Great Yin, I will collect your mother's remains and send them to the place where your father was buried in Fuyao State, build a royal mausoleum, and bury him together."

five years ago.

When Luo Fuyao became a real person.

The second generation Yin King 'Yin Hong', who had become a puppet at that time, seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He secretly wrote a letter to contact Luo Fuyao, hoping to threaten her mother and force her to serve the Great Yin in order to balance the divine blood.

Blood is thicker than water. In addition, she has endured all hardships for Luo Fuyao and become the 'Goddess of Luo' today. Naturally, her position in Luo Fuyao's heart is extraordinary.

Originally, she would have made a difficult choice between "loyalty" and "filial piety", but several years ago
Her mother did it for her herself.

When she heard that Luo Fuyao had advanced to the fourth step, Concubine Luo Shen had almost no hesitation. She chose a poison pill that night, committed suicide, and died calmly.

Before he died, he sent his assassins to pass the message to Tongye and told Luo Fuyao to rest assured.

therefore,

When she returns to this place where she was so cautious and suffocated in her childhood, where time has changed and even her only relative has passed away,
Luo Fuyao's eyes couldn't help but look dim.

But at this moment, a warm, broad hand held her.

The woman looked back at Li Taxian, who, like herself, had passed the initial immaturity and was no longer a 'young boy or girl'. He took a few steps forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.

His eyes regained some color and became slightly brighter.

"When the time comes, I'll give you another gift."

Gift?

She recalled the letter that the Great Xuan Military Saint Chen Baikui had written when he chose to join the army and contacted her, the only Great Xuan princess of legitimate blood.

Luo Fuyao couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth:

"Why, you want to marry me with this kingdom as a betrothal gift?"

So many years of mutual support.

A tacit understanding had already been formed between the two, and some things had already come to fruition.

There are some relationships in the world that are passionate, full of vows of eternal love, but also filled with the sadness and desolation of separation from life and death, such as the relationship between Song Chaixin and Song Fanjing.

But some relationships develop gradually, such as when Li Taxian was young and met Luo Fuyao, who had a pair of discerning eyes. They started with calculations, but after going through the turmoil of the mountains and rivers and the changes of the world, they still walked together unwaveringly until today.
This kind of mutual support is also true love.

"Hahaha, maybe this gift is bigger than this."

Hearing this, Ji Xia was slightly stunned, and then he remembered the conditions that Chen Baikui, the military saint, had once offered to join the army in Fuyao State. He instantly understood what was going on, and guessed that the old man must have discussed this with the woman in front of him.

But Luo Fuyao didn't know,
As a 'passer-by'.

Maybe I can give her more.

As for Luo Fuyao.

Hearing the words "a bigger gift", the corners of his lips, which had been raised involuntarily, suddenly faded a little.

When Ji Xia turned around, he dealt with the corpse of 'Marquis Hu Wei'.

She looked at his back silently:

"What greater gift could there be?"

"Silly boy."

perhaps,

Start from the first glance.

Someone is the biggest 'gift' in her life.

Three months.

The Tongye coalition marched eastward and swept across the three prefectures.

Chen Baikui, the great military saint, united the great families and clans of Fuyao and Changbai states, atones for his sins with his merits, and marched westward to attack the Divine Blood Dayin.

In a short time
The governments and remnants of Huweihou, Taishi Mansion, Longxiang Tantric Sect and so on all disappeared.

As the black smoke rose into the sky, it slowly rose from the towering 'Shenjing', the first giant city in the 'Northwest Land'. Grand Master Dong disappeared, and the leader of the Dragon Elephant Sect disappeared!
Li Taxian!
Chen Baikui!
In front of the "burned to ashes" Dayin Palace, the two parties announced that the dynasty that had lasted for nearly forty years had come to an end!
And amidst the thick black smoke and the dark night, there were thousands of troops.

The former "Great Xuan First" military saint, now he has become a real person, a high-spirited old man
When he saw that behind Li Taxian, there were ten fourth-level real people standing, and more than ten thousand armored warriors, trampling on the destruction of the old dynasty, his eyes were deep and calm, like an ancient well without ripples.

At that moment,

Chen Baikui recalled all the people who had left a significant mark in his life.

King Xuan, Lord Yin, Marquis Huwei, Zuo Shanhe
and many more!

Turned out to be
No one is as good as him!

Many heroes of the past have been worn away and disappeared like sand.

But there has never been one who can be like him, hanging high in the sky, like a never-falling star, invincible for an era.

Really true.
'The star never falls, truly invincible in the world! ' (End of this chapter)
