The Zhou Kingdom's people were forced into a corner by Su Xin's words. If Su Xin interfered in this matter, their Zhou Kingdom's reputation would be ruined.
However, the main problem was that even if they acted now, they wouldn't be able to defeat the Imperial Heaven Region. In fact, if their conflict with the Imperial Heaven Region escalated into a true life and death battle, the Zhou Kingdom would definitely lose.
Before Xue Zhenyue reached divine bridge, the Zhou Kingdom definitely wouldn't dare to start a war with the Imperial Heaven Region.
However, at this moment, a powerful aura suddenly exploded from the imperial city. In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color. Countless clouds gathered, forming a violent energy tornado that was sucked into a place below.
Sensing this aura, Su Xin raised his eyebrows, "Divine bridge? Looks like I have to congratulate the Zhou Kingdom. General Xue Zhenyue has reached divine bridge. The Zhou Kingdom can finally become one of the peak powers in the pugilistic world. Now, the Zhou Kingdom shouldn't be afraid of the Imperial Heaven Region, right? "
Xue Zhenyue reaching divine bridge should have been something to be happy about, but the problem was that they had to deal with the Imperial Heaven Region. Ji Xuanyuan and the others couldn't bring themselves to be happy.
Right now, Xue Zhenyue had only just broken through and needed to go into seclusion to adapt to the power of the Kamibashi Area.
Moreover, even if Xue Zhenyue had adapted to the power of the Kamibashi Area, he most likely wouldn't be able to defeat Jiang Yuanzhen of the Imperial Heaven Region.
Jiang Yuanzhen was someone who had reached divine bridge over a hundred years ago and had recently refined a third of the world's source energy that Xuan Ku had given him. His strength had also greatly improved. Xue Zhenyue, who had just reached true martial, was far inferior to him.
So even if Xue Zhenyue reached true martial, the Zhou Kingdom was still at a disadvantage compared to the Imperial Heaven Region.
Looking at Su Xin, Ji Xuanyuan gritted his teeth, "Lord Su, you can interfere this time, but you have to follow the lead of the Zhou Kingdom."
Xue Zhenyue alone was no match for the Imperial Heaven Domain, but with the addition of Su Xin, it would be more or less enough.
However, since Zhou Guoguo had decided to intervene, he couldn't let Su Xin take the lead anymore. The script should be that Zhou Guoguo fought against the Imperial Heaven Domain in order to stand up for his subordinates. Then, he felt that he wasn't strong enough, so he went to beg Su Xin, who had a grudge against him, to endure the humiliation.
However, Su Xin sneered at this time and said, "You have a good idea. With your Zhou Kingdom as the leader, why should I go there? Help you? In the end, my reputation belongs to your Zhou Kingdom. Do you think I will agree? "
Ji Xuanyuan frowned. Su Xin was not an ordinary person. He was not easy to fool. Su Xin had guessed his thoughts almost instantly.
However, without Su Xin, their Zhou Kingdom wouldn't even have a 10% chance of winning against the Imperial Heaven Domain.
"Then what do you want to do?" Ji Xuanyuan asked.
Su Xin said calmly, "It's very simple. Your Zhou Kingdom's treasury definitely has treasures that can increase one's vitality or spirit medicine. Use it to trade and I will help your Zhou Kingdom once.
Moreover, not only me, you also know that I have some relationship with the demon path. At the crucial moment, I can also pull the power of The Nine Hells to help.
When the time comes, even if your Zhou Kingdom goes against the Imperial Heaven Domain, your chances of winning will be above 90%. With the three sides working together, your Zhou Kingdom won't suffer too many losses. What do you think? "
Ji Xuanyuan was surprised, "You've reached Divine Bridge Stage before 100 years old. Why do you need something that can increase one's vitality?"
These things were usually needed by cultivators who were already old and had entered a declining period of vitality.
Su Xin could be said to be the youngest among the cultivators in the Kamibashi Area. He still had a few hundred years to live. Why did he need this thing?
Su Xin said, "Don't worry about why I want this thing. Do you agree to this condition?"
Ji Xuanyuan gritted his teeth and said, "I agree! Now, Lord Su, you can come with me to the Imperial Palace's treasury to choose. "
Right now, the four True Martials of the Zhou Kingdom were all in their prime. They didn't really care too much about those vitality enhancing treasures.
Moreover, using those treasures to exchange for the help of Su Xin and the Nine Hells could also reduce the losses of the Zhou Kingdom. No matter how one looked at it, this was a good deal.
Of course, if Ji Xuanyuan knew that Su Xin had originally planned to make a move against the Imperial Heaven Domain, but he had come to the Zhou Kingdom because he was worried that his subordinates would suffer great losses if they took on the role of the main attacker. Moreover, he had gotten a treasure from the Zhou Kingdom for nothing, then Ji Xuanyuan would probably vomit blood in anger.
However, from the way Ji Xuanyuan saw it, he had still made a profit. A treasure that was temporarily useless to the Zhou Kingdom in exchange for Su Xin and the Nine Hells's help. No matter how one looked at it, this was a good deal.
Therefore, after temporarily settling down, the Zhou Kingdom directly sent people to wrangle with the Imperial Heaven Domain. In fact, they were stalling for time. No matter what, they had to wait until Xue Zhenyue's realm stabilized before they could make a move.
Ji Xuanyuan also brought Su Xin into the Zhou Kingdom's treasury to choose a treasure that contained a powerful vitality.
This item was a monster core that had been passed down from ancient times. Its original body was the Monster King of the Black Tortoise lineage. The Black Tortoise lineage was famous for its long lifespan. When this Monster King was killed, he was in his peak state. Therefore, the monster core contained an extremely powerful vitality.
However, although the monster core contained a powerful vitality, its attribute was a little too overbearing. Therefore, when Ji Wuling was old, he had chosen some gentle monsters to extend his lifespan instead of something as overbearing as the Black Tortoise's monster core.
Of course, this did not matter to Su Xin. After all, no matter how overbearing the attribute was, Su Xin was still able to control it.
While Xue Zhenyue was stabilizing his realm, Su Xin sent someone to send a message to the Nine Hells. Then, he stayed in Shengjing City and began to refine the Black Tortoise's monster core, fusing with the vitality within.
Ordinary people would mainly absorb the energy within when refining a treasure like this. However, what Su Xin needed to do was to comprehend the vitality within, allowing the power within his body to achieve a balance between life and death.
Su Xin's refinement was very fast. He only used a few days to completely refine it. There were some effects, but they were not as great as he had imagined.
After all, Su Xin had too many evil and demonic arts. Unless he could draw a cultivation method on the level of the Secret of Longevity, which would allow his body to achieve a balance between Yin and Yang, life and death, he would need a lot of external items to achieve this.
After dragging on for a month, Xue Zhenyue finally came out of seclusion when the Imperial Heaven Region was getting impatient. Although he had not completely stabilized his realm, he was able to fight against ordinary experts in the Kamibashi Area.
After coming out of seclusion, Xue Zhenyue first went to see Su Xin.
Actually, Xue Zhenyue had not come into contact with Su Xin before. There was no enmity between them. Now that Xue Zhenyue went to see Su Xin, he actually wanted to see how big the gap between him and Su Xin was.
Xue Zhenyue originally wanted to spar with Su Xin. However, the moment he saw Su Xin, he sighed and said, "I'm not as good as you."
Hearing this, Ji Xuanyuan's expression immediately changed.
In his opinion, the experts in the Kamibashi Area should be about the same in strength. However, when facing Su Xin, Xue Zhenyue directly said that he was not as good as Su Xin without even fighting. This was something that could only happen when the gap was too big. Could it be that Su Xin's strength had already reached such a terrifying level?
Su Xin smiled and said, "The path of martial dao is endless. Even Celestial Bridge is not the peak. Lord Xue, you still have a long way to go. So do I. At the very least, we are still allies, right?"
Xue Zhenyue nodded. Ji Xuanyuan also nodded and said, "In that case, let's get ready to attack. The secret agents of the Six Doors and the Wind-chasing Patrollers will gather in Jiangnan Road. The experts of the Imperial Consecrator Hall will leave with us first. The military will mobilize experts from various roads to Jiangnan Road and prepare to attack the Imperial Heaven Region!"
Before they decided to attack the Imperial Heaven Region, the Zhou Kingdom might have hesitated. However, now that the Zhou Kingdom had decided to attack the Imperial Heaven Region, they had to mobilize the strongest forces in one go to beat the Imperial Heaven Region!
However, the Zhou Kingdom did not have the intention to destroy the Imperial Heaven Region. After all, the Imperial Heaven Region was the descendant of the Human Sovereign. It was easier said than done to completely destroy it.
After the Zhou Kingdom made the arrangements, Su Xin directly followed Ji Xuanyuan and the others to Jiangnan Road.
At this moment, in the Jiangnan Road's Emperor Dragon City, the Jiang Family was still unaware of the Zhou Kingdom's plans. However, there were rumors in the pugilistic world who took the initiative to report to Jiang Yuanzhen that the Zhou Kingdom's military was moving towards Jiangnan Road.
The Imperial Heaven Region had only descended for such a long time. Naturally, they did not have the time to nurture any news organizations. However, they could recruit a few.
As the descendant of the Human Sovereign, the Imperial Heaven Region was rich and powerful. What kind of people couldn't they recruit? As long as the Jiang Family spoke, some news organizations would naturally take the initiative to approach them.
When Jiang Yuanzhen saw the mobilization of the Zhou Kingdom's military, he could not help but frown.
The Zhou Kingdom's military forces were distributed among the 49 roads of the Zhou Kingdom, apart from Shengjing City and the northern border and Eastern Jin City.
Now, the Zhou Kingdom's military forces were suddenly mobilized towards Jiangnan Road. What other hostile forces were there in Jiangnan Road? Other than the Imperial Heaven Region, Jiang Yuanzhen could not think of anyone else.
However, the only thing that puzzled Jiang Yuanzhen was why the Zhou Kingdom would have the guts to make a move against them. Was the Zhou Kingdom so confident that they could defeat the Imperial Heaven Region? Moreover, what was the reason for the Zhou Kingdom to make a move?
Jiang Yuanzhen frowned and said coldly, "Go, summon the Jiang Family's direct descendants to see me. I want to see what they have been up to recently."
Not long later, the Jiang Family's direct descendants rushed over. When Jiang Li's father, Jiang Yaoyang, told them about Jiang Li's matter, Jiang Yuanzhen's face was already as dark as water.
Although he was the Domain Lord, he couldn't manage everything. Moreover, as an expert of the Celestial Bridge Realm, he naturally spent most of his time in seclusion. In the Jiang Clan, the patriarchs of the direct line of descent possessed great power.
However, no matter how much power they had, it did not mean that they could arbitrarily do something that would affect the entire Imperial Heaven Region.
