Most of the time, Zong Tianxuan admired her master's eye for choosing disciples.
Of course, this only referred to martial arts talent.
In the past, the Big Dipper Seven Stars were all geniuses.
Each of them had reached a height that countless people could not reach in their lifetime at a young age.
When they broke up, the seven of them were at the 15th level. She, Third Junior Brother Yuan Tianji, and Fourth Junior Brother Yu Tianquan were at the 14th level. Fifth Junior Sister Du Yuheng, Sixth Junior Brother Xian Kaiyang, and Little Junior Sister Chu Yaoguang were at the 13th level.
The latter three's cultivation was slightly lower, not because they were less talented, but because they entered the sect later and started cultivating later.
Of course, strictly speaking, the seven of them were all geniuses, but there was still a slight difference between them.
Chu Yaoguang was the youngest and entered the sect later, but her cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. Soon, she caught up with Du Yuheng and Xian Kaiyang.
If nothing happened to her, she would have broken through to the 14th level earlier than Du Yuheng and Xian Kaiyang.
Zong Tianxuan could also shamelessly boast that she was slightly better than Yuan Tianji and Yu Tianquan.
To be precise, among the disciples, she was the closest to Fu Tianshu.
Without these 30 years, she was confident that she could break through to the Martial Emperor Realm.
However, she was not confident that even if she broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm, she might not be able to kill Fu Tianshu for her master.
Not to mention that Fu Tianshu would have improved in these 30 years, even if he stayed the same, Zong Tianxuan was not confident that she could defeat him at the same level.
Although it was heartbreaking, in terms of martial arts cultivation, Fu Tianshu was indeed the Big Dipper Patriarch's proudest disciple.
Standing in the Daming Palace, Zong Tianxuan's thoughts were in turmoil.
Shen Herong flipped through the remnant chapter written by the Saint in his hand. As he read, he said, "I wonder if Big Brother and Seventh Brother prepared something similar?"
Ao Kong immediately snorted. "He prepared these things for the situation that day, right?"
Shen Herong smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Dongyun, who was sitting in his seat, also felt that it was ironic.
In the previous battle, he had lost in an embarrassing manner.
Su Po.
Zong Tianxuan, who had improved in Chang 'an City.
Ao Kong had been upgraded in Chang 'an.
Shen Herong, who had been promoted in Chang 'an City and had been influenced by his own practice of "learning from the best".
Reverend Cheng Yang wielded the First Origin Mirror and the Thunder King's True Talisman Sword.
To be honest, this lineup was not weak at all.
Back when the Twelve Yama-Kings had gathered together, they were about as powerful as this.
After all, Su Po, Ao Kong, and the others were all stronger than he was when he was at the same level.
They insisted on keeping Lei Han out of Chang 'an, and Zhang Dongyun did not firmly oppose it, which was also one of the reasons.
After all, their lineup was equivalent to five experts on the same level as Lei Han. Even if the other side had Yu Tianquan's help, they still had an absolute advantage.
The opening proved that it was not much different from what he had expected.
For Shen Herong and the others, who understood Lei Han's ability, it was not too surprising that Lei Han had a way to break Reverend Cheng Yang's magic weapon.
It wasn't surprising that Lei Han was targeting their own cultivation and trying to resolve it.
Zhang Dongyun had helped them prepare in advance so that he could block this opening and even turn this weakness into a trap.
The appearance of the Immortal Body of Primordial Darkness was somewhat unexpected.
But even after Shen Herong was seriously injured by Lei Han, there were still two experts, Su Po and Zong Tianxuan.
Ao Kong was restrained by the Immortal Body of Primordial Darkness to a certain extent, so his combat strength was reduced. But overall, there were at least two and a half experts.
Under such circumstances, even if they could not win in a mixed martial arts fight, they would not lose.
In the end, they really did lose.
The reason why it was embarrassing to say that they lost was not because they could not win against two, but because of why they lost.
Although no one was willing to admit it, in fact, they lost because they thought too badly of Lei Han …
Lei Han had many trump cards in reserve, came up with many methods to restrain them, and his own strength was also strong enough.
Ao Kong and the others had all thought of these things.
But they did not think that Lei Han had many things that could be beneficial to them.
Lei Han was good at finding people's weaknesses and finding ways to resolve them by targeting them.
But on the other hand, he could also find ways to help others make up for their weaknesses.
If he really was not a traitor, then he had undoubtedly prepared these things out of concern for the sworn siblings of the past.
If it was said that with his personality, the moment he received these things, he might have considered using them in battle.
But whether he immediately erased this thought after a moment, or if he had been preparing for it all along, only he himself knew.
"Eighth Sister, Twelfth Sister, go into seclusion. Eleventh Brother, go to the Aparagodaniya Continent first." Zhang Dongyun ended the discussion.
Zong Tianxuan, Ao Kong, and Shen Herong all nodded. After bidding farewell to Zhang Dongyun, they all left.
Zhang Dongyun let out a long breath and stood up from his seat.
He strolled alone in the main hall, then took out the Desert Star Iron to study and began his own cultivation.
The thirteenth realm of martial arts cultivation, also known as the fourth realm of the Martial Emperor Realm, was called Expansion Six Directions.
This was a realm that further comprehended the mysteries of space than Sweeping the Eight Wastelands.
Compared to Sweeping the Eight Wastelands, after reaching the Expansion Six Directions realm, the distance and frequency of Void Shift would be greatly increased.
Even the release of Qi and blood, Saber Qi, Sword Qi, Fist Qi, and Palm Qi could break through the air within a certain range, and it was impossible to guard against.
In addition, there was no need to mention the growth of the body's Qi and blood.
Of course, on the other hand, if a martial artist wanted to reach this realm, it would be more difficult than Sweeping the Eight Wastelands.
No matter which cultivation path it was, after all, the higher one went, the more difficult it would be, and the more time and energy it would take.
For many realms, a martial artist would not be able to appreciate the scenery in their entire life.
Zhang Dongyun calmed down and began to use his Qi and blood to silently collect the spiritual energy in the Desert Star Iron. Then, he guided it into his body and refined it.
The Desert Star Iron contained many mysteries of space. In addition to refining Qi and blood, it could also inspire Zhang Dongyun and help him advance to Expansion Six Directions faster.
While Zhang Dongyun was cultivating, Chang 'an's army was constantly pacifying the surroundings.
The Buddhist monks of the Aparagodānīya Continent were massacred by Chang 'an.
The remaining people were forced to leave the continent and flee overseas.
Although the entire Aparagodānīya Continent was split into two, it was basically under Chang 'an's control.
On the continent, there were only a few places that still had sporadic resistance.
However, it was obvious that they were grasshoppers after autumn and would not be able to jump around for more than a few days.
As for the North Continent, it was unable to cause any trouble.
Zhang Dongyun had been too ruthless previously.
In the past, the Dong Sheng Divine Continent's Northern Mang had been plowed by Xian Kaiyang and Su Po. As a result, its vitality had been greatly damaged, and there were no longer any cultivators above the Twelfth Realm.
As for Zhang Dongyun, he had swept the entire North Continent.
In the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, not only the Northern Mang, but even the Central Plains, the Western Regions, and the Southern Wastelands were all killed by him.
As such, even the filial sons and grandsons of Lei Han did not dare to show their faces at this time.
If they showed their faces, they would be like dragons without a leader and would be in a state of disunity.
To put it bluntly, if Master Zhang left them alone and allowed them to stir up trouble, they would first have to be in chaos internally before they could decide on a leader.
Under such circumstances, the North Continent was naturally not a problem.
Compared to those who were loyal to Lei Han, Ji Qingwen, Long Chuan, Gui Nanshan, and the others, there were more people who were dissatisfied with them now. They had emerged one after another and submitted to Chang 'an.
Under Lei Han's rule, he was fair in his rewards and punishments.
However, at the same time, those who submitted to him would prosper, and those who opposed him would perish. It was a bloody, cruel, and high-handed rule.
The process of him conquering the North Continent was similar to how Xian Kaiyang had conquered the Dong Sheng Divine Continent's Northern Mang. They had killed their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
There were many people who were dissatisfied and even rebelled secretly.
However, under the suppression of Lei Han and his four emperors, these people could only endure the humiliation for the time being.
Strictly speaking, as natives of the North Continent, they might not want an outsider from the Dong Sheng Divine Continent to become the ruler of the North Continent.
However, they were still stronger than Lei Han.
Only by clinging to the thighs of Chang 'an could they deal with their enemies and those who were loyal to Lei Han.
Therefore, more and more people submitted to Chang 'an. The diehard people who were still loyal to Lei Han were eliminated in large numbers, and there were not many left.
"Your Majesty, you are careful and decisive in your work. You are very capable."
Perfected Cheng Yang returned to Chang 'an's Daming Palace to report on his work.
He also brought another person back. "Other than that, his cultivation talent is also quite extraordinary. I recalled that Your Majesty loves talents, so I brought him here."
Zhang Dongyun's gaze turned and landed on a young man beside Perfected Cheng Yang.
He glanced at him and asked, "Are you a half-demon?"
