After Master Yuan Ji left, Chu Xiu did not continue to think about "Heaven," because it was useless to think about it.
Although he knew that the Sky-reaching Key was related to going to other Heaven, and he also believed that the strange map recorded the location of other Heaven, it was useless because he could not understand it.
Since he found that the Sky-reaching Key could pass through the Green Space, Chu Xiu had tried to use it in other places, but it was useless because he could not understand it.
This thing was only effective in the Green Space, where the space was weak.
Although he suspected that Elysium knew something, the gap between him and Elysium was too big. He had no clue about investigating Elysium. Even if he had, it would be suicide for Chu Xiu to investigate Elysium rashly.
So since there was no progress, what was the point of thinking about all this nonsense? He might as well continue to practice.
Chu Xiu had already touched the threshold of the Spiritual Cultivation Realm with Real Fire, so he had been thinking about breaking through this bottleneck.
Refining his body with Real Fire could make Chu Xiu comparable to a normal warrior in the Spiritual Cultivation Realm with Real Fire. If he reached the Spiritual Cultivation Realm with Real Fire, the two would be superimposed. This was a realm that even Chenqing Di had not reached. Could he be comparable to the Metaphysic Realm of Heaven and Earth?
Maybe after he finished practicing, he should ask Shang Tianliang for advice and see what the lower limit of the Metaphysic Realm of Heaven and Earth was.
While Chu Xiu was concentrating on practicing, there was a change in the Northern Yan.
In one of the chambers of the Northern Yan Imperial Palace, Xiang Long was lying on the bed. His appearance was so haggard that he did not look like a human anymore. Only a layer of skin was left on him. Compared to when Chu Xiu saw him a few months ago, he was a completely different person.
An imperial physician trembled beside the bed and said, "Your Majesty, your body is too weak now. You can't use strong medicine. You can only take some warm medicine and rest in peace."
This imperial physician was also very helpless. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Xiang Long would not be able to hold on for much longer. However, what else could he do? He couldn't possibly tell Xiang Long that his Majesty could now wait for his death in peace.
He could heal other illnesses and injuries, but when it came to lifespan, he really couldn't do anything about it.
Xiang Long raised his hand and said, "I don't want to take medicine anymore."
That imperial physician was so frightened that he fell to his knees. However, Xiang Long weakly waved his hand and said, "Get up. This has nothing to do with you. We know that we do not have much longer to live. You can leave now."
When the imperial physician left, trembling, Xiang Long stared blankly in front, not knowing what was going on.
Eunuch Han, who was beside Xiang Long, said softly, "Your Majesty, let it go. Perhaps after a period of rest, your body will recover."
Xiang Long didn't respond to Eunuch Han's comforting words. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "We don't accept this!
I had spent my life building the Yan Dynasty to build the Yan Dynasty, and Hau Hao Chang, Yan, Yan, Yan Yan. Hao Hao!
Tian Qi, Yan Hao Not to Hao Yan Not, but Chang to Emperor, Dynasty, while I was still reading the Hao Hao, Yan was sleeping with a Yan.
If you give me Eastern Qi, within ten years, I will be able to conquer the world and create a truly prosperous empire! "
Xiang Long's voice was filled with unwillingness and unwillingness.
Some people were born with everything, but they didn't cherish it.
The vast Eastern Qi, the fertile Central Plains, was now in the hands of that good-for-nothing, Lü Hau Chang. How could he swallow this insult?
"Go, get the North Vanquishing King here," Xiang Long suddenly said.
Eunuch Han hesitated for a moment, but he still followed Xiang Long's instructions and called for the North Vanquishing King.
After a quarter of an hour, a stalwart middle-aged man walked into the bedroom.
This middle-aged man wore an embroidered dragon robe. Not only was his figure stalwart and tall, his appearance was masculine and handsome, and he possessed an extraordinary aura. In front of him, Xiang Long seemed even weaker and weaker.
Xiang Long looked at the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man looked back at him, but neither of them said a word.
After a long while, the middle-aged man couldn't help but say, "Why did you call me over? Is it so that I can watch you die here? I've said it before, after your death, I will only drink and celebrate. I will not mourn for you, brother! "
This middle-aged man was an expert of the Northern Yan royal family, the person in charge of the Imperial Worship Hall, the North Vanquishing King, Xiang Chong.
The Northern Yan was located in the north, but Xiang Chong's title was the North Vanquishing King. One could imagine his importance in the Northern Yan royal family.
The Northern Yan royal family's strongest military organization, the Imperial Worship Hall, was in his hands. He was also the only one in Xiang Long's generation who had reached the True Fire Spirit-Ascension Realm.
Of course, he also had another identity. He was Xiang Long's younger brother, born from the same mother.
But now, the way he looked at Xiang Long was filled with mockery, disgust, and even hatred.
Xiang Long smiled bitterly and said, "You still hate me?"
In front of Xiang Chong, Xiang Long didn't address himself as emperor. In front of him, Xiang Long was not an emperor, but a failed brother.
Xiang Chong sneered and said, "Hate? For the sake of this bullsh * t throne, you killed the Crown Prince and the others. It's understandable. When the three of us were young, the Crown Prince used to bully and humiliate us. But in the end, why did you kill our eldest brother? Is the throne that important to you? Look at you now, fighting and scheming against others, plotting against each other. At the end of the day, decades of time are nothing but dust. Is there any meaning to it? "
There was no expression on Xiang Long's face, which only had a layer of skin left. He said coolly, "Do you still think that I killed our eldest brother? I did it for the sake of Great Yan!
If Great Yan had a foundation like Eastern Qi, I'd rather be an idle King, helping my eldest brother to come up with strategies and strategies. After helping him ascend to the throne, I would be like you, concentrating on the cultivation of martial arts.
But, what was Great Yan like at that time? It was surrounded by enemies on all sides, in a precarious situation!
Great Yan was not Eastern Qi. Even though Eastern Qi had produced a few useless idiots, Eastern Qi was still Eastern Qi.
But, if Great Yan made a mistake, we would be doomed eternally!
My eldest brother did not deserve the throne, but he refused to let go. What else could I do? Do I have to sit back and watch my eldest brother bring Great Yan into the abyss? If that happens, we will all die! "
Xiang Long sighed when he saw that Xiang Chong's eyes were still filled with disdain and hatred. He did not explain further.
"You're right about one thing," he said weakly, "I'm about to die.
I know you hate me, but you can't possibly hate Great Yan too, can you?
Before I die, I'm going to lay out a trap, which can at least ensure the stability of Great Yan for decades.
At that time, I'll be able to leave with a peace of mind. "
Xiang Chong frowned and said, "What trap? And, who are you going to pass the throne to? "
Xiang Long hesitated for a brief moment, then said in a low voice, "Xiang Chong."
"Why not Xiang Li?" asked Xiang Chong curiously. He was the second prince, and the ancestral teaching of Great Yan was to establish the eldest brother first.
Moreover, for so many years, Xiang Li had always thought that he would be the future emperor of Great Yan. Everyone in the imperial court thought so, and many of them had thrown themselves into Xiang Li's service.
Do you know how much internal strife Great Yan's imperial court will fall into by doing this? "
Xiang Chong laughed coldly and said, "Don't tell me you made Xiang Chong the Crown Prince just because he looks like you when you were young? Back then, you did not get the throne properly. So, are you going to let your son break the ancestral teaching of Great Yan as well? "
Xiang Long did not pay any attention to Xiang Chong's sarcasm. "It's exactly because Xiang Li has always thought that he is the Crown Prince that I don't want to pass the throne to him," he said coolly.
"They are both my sons, and their abilities are almost the same. How can I play around with such an important matter just because of my own preference?
The powers in Xiang Li's hands are too complicated. For so many years, I've been paying attention to him, watching him collect all the good and bad powers. But, with his overall strength, there is no way he can control these powers.
He thinks he is the chosen one, and that's why he has been collecting these powers without any scruples. You should know that the powers you have now will have to return them when you ascend to the throne in the future.
In comparison, Xiang Chong is much simpler. If I give him the throne, he will cherish it even more. "
"But, the powers in Xiang Chong's hands are weaker. How can you guarantee that he can sit firmly on the throne in the future?"
"You!"
Xiang Chong was taken aback, then he sneered and said, "You want me to help your son sit firmly on the throne? Have you lost your mind because of your illness?"
Xiang Long cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Third brother, I know you hate me, but I also know that you can't let go of Great Yan either! Otherwise, with your overall strength, how could you be willing to sit quietly in the Imperial Sinecure Hall for so many years? "
Among the descendants of the Northern Yan Imperial Clan, Xiang Wu was undoubtedly the most outstanding among the younger generation.
And Xiang Long's generation was Xiang Chong, who stood before him.
Xiang Long knew that Xiang Chong hated him deeply, but he still conferred him the title of Northern King, and gave him the command of the most important organization, the Imperial Sinecure Hall. It was because he knew that no matter how much Xiang Chong hated him, he would not do anything to him. Although Xiang Chong hated him, he also cared about the Northern Yan Imperial Clan, and he would not do anything that would harm the Northern Yan Imperial Clan.
Xiang Long said in a deep voice, "Third brother, I don't have long to live, but the troubles of Great Yan have not been solved.
I know you hate me, but I believe you!
Help me stabilize Great Yan, or should I say, help the Xiang Clan stabilize Great Yan! "
Xiang Chong remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What do you want to do?"
Upon hearing Xiang Chong's question, a smile emerged on Xiang Long's face. He knew that Xiang Chong had agreed.
"Although Great Yan seems to be peaceful now, it is riddled with holes.
Within it, there is the Martial Suppression Hall, a power that can't be shaken off. I can't control Chu Xiu, and although Xiang Chong has a good relationship with him, I can't control him either.
Outside, there is Great Yan's Jianghu, which has caused a great disaster. The Great Light Temple is located in the Yan Kingdom, but they have never considered themselves as a citizen of the Yan Kingdom. Those monks have no respect for the Emperor, and they are lawless!
Further away, although Eastern Qi has a mediocre Lü Hau Chang, with the resources of Eastern Qi, if they are replaced by a slightly capable Emperor, they will definitely be the nightmare of Great Yan!
With the internal and external troubles, Great Yan is already in a mess. So, I will make it even more chaotic, and only then can we win in the chaos! "
Xiang Long fixed his eyes on Xiang Chong and said in a deep voice, "Third brother, in the entire Great Yan, I only trust you. Help me, Xiang Clan, stabilize Great Yan, and when I'm dead in the future, I'll personally go down there and apologize to my imperial brother!"
