The door to Wu Qingrou's study was closed. The master was alone in the study.
Silently, a young man stood outside the study, waiting patiently. He knew that Wu Qingrou needed time to think.
"I thought it would be a draw. Who knew that Shu Mountain would suffer a crushing defeat." The young man knew why Wu Qingrou was deep in thought. It was because of the news he brought.
In fact, the young man was shocked when he first received the news. It wasn't that he didn't think that Lin Feng could win, but he didn't expect the situation to be completely one-sided.
After a long time, the door suddenly opened. Wu Qingrou's calm voice came from inside. "Come in, Yuyan."
The young man walked into the room and saw Wu Qingrou sitting behind the desk. His expression was as calm as water, and his eyes were like the deep sea.
"Eldest Senior Brother, the situation seems to be a bit unexpected." The young man, Huang Yuyan, deliberated over his words and said slowly, "Although Xin Longsheng didn't show up in person, and the old monsters of Mount Shu didn't come out of seclusion, four of the Five Great Sword Masters were defeated."
"Even the Six Meridian Immortal Heaven Sword Formation was broken. If not for the master of the Celestial Gate showing mercy, they would all have died there. Even so, Sword Venerate Guan Chong's Return to Void Dharma Body shattered, his cultivation regressed, and even the Shaoyang Sword and Taiyin Sword were taken."
Huang Yuyan sighed softly. "Although Shu Mountain lost more than one Primordial Spirit cultivator, including Sword Venerate Taiyin, in the war of vanquishing Buddhism, the Tempest Monastery was still destroyed. This time, they returned in a terrible defeat. Since the war between the two worlds four thousand years ago, Shu Mountain has never suffered such a great loss."
Wu Qingrou smiled. "It was indeed unexpected. The change this time was beyond my expectations."
He looked at the pond in the distance outside the window of the study. Watching the ripples on the water, he said leisurely, "Speaking of which, this master of the Celestial Sect of Wonders always surprises people. It's hard to see through him."
He tapped his fingers on the table and said calmly, "Stop all activities against Shu Mountain. Put all the previous arrangements into hibernation."
Wu Qingrou looked at Huang Yuyan and said, "Especially the arrangements against the Zhou Dynasty and Shu Mountain. Oh right, I remember that the operation against the Fourth Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Liang Qian, seemed to be unusual? "
"Half a year ago, the original plan was to kill the Fourth Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Liang Qian, at the southern foot of Kunlun Mountain. However, Eldest Senior Brother instructed us to postpone the plan, so we didn't carry it out." Huang Yuyan nodded. "But the other party seems to have sensed some movements and realized something."
Wu Qingrou smiled. "Beyond Heaven Mountain's move might have been exposed. Looks like Liang Qian's subordinates have sharp eyes."
"Then let's just leave it hanging like this. It'll be more of a deterrent when it's about to be unleashed, and it can also serve as a cover for other arrangements."
Huang Yuyan asked, "Does Eldest Senior Brother mean to not lead the Great Zhou Dynasty into a conflict with the Shushan Sword Sect and let Xuanmen Tianzong face the Shushan Sword Sect alone?"
Wu Qingrou let out a rare sigh and shook his head. "My previous judgment was wrong. I thought that Xuanmen Tianzong was under too much pressure, so I planned to suppress the Shushan Sword Sect first and force them to settle down for a while without affecting the overall situation."
"But now, it seems that if we follow the original plan, Xuanmen Tianzong, the Qin Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty will join forces to attack Shu, the Shushan Sword Sect will be under too much pressure."
Wu Qingrou tapped his fingers on the table and suddenly smiled. "Interesting. This is the second time I've changed my original plan because of Xuanmen Tianzong. It's stupid to change my mind all the time, but I have no choice but to do it now. The master of the Daoist Sect is indeed not simple."
He stood up and walked out of the study. "Yuyan, go and make the arrangements. I still have to meet the Qin Emperor."
Huang Yuyan nodded and sighed. "I thought that after the fall of the Tempest Temple, the Reincarnation Sect would be the most likely to fill the vacancy of the three holy lands. But based on the current situation, it seems that Xuanmen Tianzong, which has been established for less than a year, is more powerful."
Wu Qingrou smiled faintly. "Maybe it is, but we don't know for sure. But in the history of the Tianyuan World, there have been many amazing figures who eventually withered and disappeared. Is Xuanmen Tianzong an eternal star or an instant meteor? It's still too early to make a conclusion. "
He put his hands behind his back and walked out of the study. Facing the faint light of dawn, he squinted and smiled. "Shushan has a good opponent now."
...
The battle where Lin Feng broke the Six Meridians Heavenly Immortal Sword Formation of Shushan shocked the world. If people had only seen Lin Feng as a rising star before, then this battle had completely established his position as a giant in the Divine Land.
After countless powers recovered from their shock, they all began to analyze the process of this battle and at the same time analyze the effects of this battle.
"The battle between the Shushan Sword Sect and Xuanmen Tianzong has already reached the point where one side must die." Within the Imperial City of the Great Zhou Dynasty, within the Imperial Palace, Emperor of Zhou sat cross-legged on the Dragon Throne. Slowly, he said: "Not to mention the fact that the reputation of the Shushan Sword Sect has been heavily damaged after this battle, just the fact that Lin Feng took away the Shaoyang and Taiyin swords is enough for Shushan to not let the matter rest."
Within the Imperial Palace, the Marquis of Xuanji Zhu Hongwu replied Silently: "Your Majesty is wise, the people of Shushan are used to being arrogant. Blindly attacking Xin Longsheng and the few great elders while they were in closed door training, this defeat is not undeserved."
In front of Zhu Hongwu stood a green-clothed girl, it was precisely Yan Mingyue. She sighed lightly: "It's a pity that Xin Longsheng's illustrious name was destroyed in a single day, having his divine ability and dharma body destroyed by the Master of Xuan Gate. He won't be able to take revenge in a short period of time and redeem his face."
For this kind of matter, if he can't get back at them on the spot, as time drags on, even if Xin Longsheng wins the battle against Lin Feng in the future, he will still lose a lot of face.
Liang Pan looked towards Zhu Hongwu, smiling slightly: "However, the strength of this Master of Xuan Gate is truly beyond imagination. It seems like he won't be obediently killed by just three to five Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators surrounding him."
"Unless these three to five Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators are all strong practitioners like Xin Longsheng."
This was his idea of teasing Zhu Hongwu in the past. In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, perhaps only Liang Pan could tease his trusted official like this.
Zhu Hongwu's expression did not change: "Your Majesty is right, but even someone as strong as Youdu of the Tianhai Youdu ended up dying in the past. No matter who it is, if they stand in the way of the general trend, they will definitely end up with their bodies crushed."
"The Master of Xuan Gate, Lin Feng, should first prove that he can defeat Xin Longsheng. Even though the Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation of Shushan is strong, it is not invincible. Furthermore, the Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation in this battle is not his peak condition."
Liang Pan and Yan Mingyue both smiled slightly. What Zhu Hongwu said just now was not wrong. The Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation of Shushan Sword Sect, in theory, was naturally the formation set up by six great sword cultivators of the third tier of the Primordial Spirit Realm. Its power was the greatest.
That was also the most glorious moment in the history of Shushan Sword Sect. Six strong practitioners of the Primordial Spirit Realm had set up the Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation and rampaged through the Great Heaven Primordial World. Gods and Buddhas had to flee, establishing the position of Shushan Sword Sect as one of the three holy lands of the Divine Land.
But as the world changed, some of the six great practitioners of the Primordial Spirit Realm died, and some went missing. For tens of thousands of years after that, Shushan never had six great sword cultivators of the Primordial Spirit Realm at the same time. The strongest Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation thus became a lost song.
After that, generally speaking, it was more common for six mighty practitioners of the second tier of the Primordial Spirit Realm to set up a sword formation.
This meant that the six great sword masters of Shushan's Six Meridians Sword Formation would set up the formation. At the same time, they would be paired with the Shaoyang Sword, Taiyin Sword, and other Six Meridians Immortal Swords. When six people and six swords worked together, they would obtain an extremely powerful killing power.
They were invincible against those below the third tier of the Primordial Spirit Realm, and could even kill experts of the Primordial Spirit Realm. They could even put up a fight against elite third tier Primordial Spirit Realm bulls like Yan Nanlai and Xin Longsheng. They were truly ferocious beyond compare.
But in this battle with Lin Feng, the Taiyin Sword Lord had already fallen, the Shaoyang Sword Lord had remained in Shushan, and the Shaoshang Sword Lord and the other three did not bring the Shaoshang, Shaoze, Guan Chong, and Li Xiong swords.
The power of the Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation had been greatly reduced. It was only after Xin Longsheng's Immortal Heaven Sword Lord Dharma Body had arrived that it showed some of its power.
And now, even if Shushan made a comeback, Sword Venerable Moonshine had advanced to the second tier of the Primordial Spirit Realm, and Sword Venerable Guan Chong had ascended to the Primordial Spirit Realm, the Six Meridians Heavenly Sword Formation would still be incomplete. This was because the Shaoyang and Taiyin Swords had already fallen into Lin Feng's hands.
Shushan's recklessness this time had caused them to lose far more than what they seemed on the surface.
Silently, Zhu Hongwu said, "But this way, the Great Qin Dynasty might change course."
Emperor Liang Pan of Zhou smiled. "That is to be expected. But there are some things that the Great Qin Dynasty is already like an arrow nocked on a bow. It has to be fired."
He turned to Yan Mingyue. "Fairy Yan, there are some things that I will leave to you."
Yan Mingyue lightly tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled. "It is already a matter of course. But seeing the outcome of this battle, Mingyue feels a little regretful."
Liang Pan laughed heartily. "Fairy Yan must be joking. The ones who should be regretting are the others. Just as We have said, there are many things that are like an arrow nocked on a bow. It has to be fired. There is no room for regret."
...
The others were constantly planning and plotting. Even though he did not know what they were thinking, Lin Feng knew in his heart that after this battle, his position in the human cultivation world of the divine continent would be completely different.
He did not even need to check his reputation in the system. Just by looking at Old Sword Immortal, Sword Venerable Flying Snow, and the others, he could see the obvious change in their attitudes.
It was not that they had changed from arrogance to deference, nor were they friendly. On the contrary, the attitude of Old Sword Immortal and the others towards Lin Feng was clearly more reserved and courteous than before.
It was not that they were estranged, but that they respected and respected an expert.
This was the same attitude they had towards Taixu Temple Master Yan Nanlai, Shushan Sect Master Xin Longsheng, Emperor Qin Shi Yu, Emperor Zhou Liang Pan, and other major figures.
Lin Feng's expression did not change at all. He was still chatting happily with the others. But at this moment, he had naturally become the center of attention.
The major factions all expressed their goodwill towards Lin Feng. Old Sword Immortal of the Heavenly Sword Sect even extended an invitation to Lin Feng, hoping that Lin Feng would come to Tongtian Mountain as a guest.
