The Yuan Shang Hall's arrangement of sending one person from each hall was both a compromise and a precaution.
When the two of them discussed together, there would definitely be differences of opinion. However, once there was a mistake, it would be the fault of the two halls, and no one hall would be blamed.
At the same time, after the previous failure, no one knew if Tianxia still had any hidden tricks. After all, in the previous attack, even a capable person from Tianxia's side could not be eliminated.
Fortunately, their general strategy was to fight a war of attrition. Although Tianxia did not reveal everything in the previous battle, he did reveal some of it. In the past few years, they had made certain measures to counter this. If Tianxia still used the same method as last time, they would definitely be restrained.
Even so, according to the Yuan Shang Hall's estimation, if they only used the current strength, they would have to go through several large-scale battles to be able to defeat Tianxia. If the journey did not go well, or if there were any accidents, it might happen a few more times.
However, no one doubted whether Yuan Xia would win in the end. This answer had never existed in Yuan Xia's mind.
On the contrary, some powerful forces hoped that the Yuan Shang Hall would encounter another setback, so that they could logically take over the authority.
As an emissary stationed in Yuan Xia, Jin Zhixing was always paying attention to everything in Yuan Xia. Moreover, he had also made friends with many 'comrades' from various eras. These people had more or less provided him with some information.
Therefore, after summarizing and analyzing, he quickly sent the news that he believed to be about to attack to Zhang Yu through Xuntian Dao Zhang. On the surface, he still wrote a letter and tried to send it back through the "secret channel".
Yuan Xia did not do anything to him. It was impossible to hide a large-scale attack. The signs of the aura would definitely be detected by Tianxia first. Moreover, this time, a messenger was sent to find him.
After seeing him, this Yuan Xia cultivator looked at him with some contempt and said, "We know that you will send a message to Tianxia. We will not stop you, but please pass a message to Tianxia."
Jin Zhixing was not embarrassed and only said, "Please speak."
The Yuan Xia cultivator said, "Although Tianxia survived the previous two expeditions, I'm afraid the losses were due to carelessness, right? You can block one or two times, but can you block three or four times? If not, Yuan Xia would have left some leeway for Tianxia. Then, today's situation would not be like this. "
Jin Zhixing showed a surprised expression and said, "Your side actually left some leeway in the previous two expeditions?"
The Yuan Xia cultivator said with an arrogant expression, "Of course."
Jin Zhixing said sincerely, "Then please leave some leeway in the future and send more ministers to Tianxia. Tianxia's Zhang Tingzhi once said that Tianxia is also very hospitable."
When the Yuan Xia cultivator heard this, he could not help but snort and said coldly, "I hope your side has the same eloquence as you on the battlefield."
Jin Zhixing smiled and said, "Don't blame me, Kim spoke without thinking."
Even though the Yuanxia cultivator hated Jin Zhixing and looked down on Tianxia's Daoist cultivators, he was sent here by someone else this time. It would not be good for him to leave in a huff. He suppressed his anger and said, "Even though you have repeatedly gone against Yuanxia, Yuanxia is peaceful. Therefore, we are willing to give Tianxia a chance."
Jin Zhixing said, "Oh? What kind of chance is it? "
The Yuan Xia cultivator lifted his chin slightly and took out a letter from his sleeve. He placed it on the table and pushed it forward. He nodded and said, "Everything that needs to be said is here. You can take a look."
Jin Zhixing could not help but take a few glances. He heard the Yuan Xia cultivator continue, "If after reading it, your side still opposes me this time, then we will no longer hold back."
With that, he waved his sleeve and said, "Goodbye!" With that, he stood up from his seat and walked out.
After he left, Jin Zhixing's expression turned serious. He thought about it but did not reach out to take the letter. Instead, he summoned Xuntian Dao Zhang and found Zhang Yu. He explained the situation in detail and said, "Tingzhi, I feel that this letter was sent too suddenly. I'm afraid there are some problems."
Zhang Yu agreed with his opinion and said, "Manager Jin is right to be cautious. At this point, Yuan Xia will not easily promise anything. They have already tried what they can and have taken out what they can. Now that they are talking about this, they must have other motives. Therefore, you don't have to pay attention to this letter. You don't have to open it, and you don't have to send it back."
Jin Zhixing said, "Yes, I will do as you say."
After Zhang Yu ended the conversation with him, he summoned Ming Zhou and ordered him to inform Chief Administrator Chen about this matter. He then continued to raise the sword in his hand to practice.
After a few days, he suddenly felt something. He looked up and saw an incomparably huge barrier above his head.
This was the Wall of the Two Worlds created by Daoist You and Lin Tingzhi. At present, this object seemed to be in between reality and illusion. It was different from the power of the Elusive World Bamboo Slip. This was because the two Daos were still in the process of merging and had not reached the moment where they were completely fixed.
This was the first time the two had created such a huge instrument. Or rather, it was the combination of a formation instrument and an instrument. In the sky above the entire sea of clouds, there seemed to be an additional layer of metal barrier. It was extremely spectacular. When the cultivators who were still on the upper level saw this, they could not help but exclaim in admiration.
Zhang Yu looked at it for a while. In his eyes, this object was not fixed and unmoving. Instead, it was surging there like the waves of the sea. The fusion of Qi was also completely presented in front of him. He nodded slightly. The fundamental Daos of these two were not opposing each other, but they were not on the same path. It was really not easy for them to merge to this extent.
He retracted his gaze and continued to practice the sword.
In this way, another two months passed. It was the end of the year. On this day, he was meditating when he suddenly felt waves of warning signs. It was as if a huge pressure was about to fall on him.
Divine light flashed in his eyes. He knew in his heart that the second expedition from Yuan Xia was about to arrive. He stroked the spine of the Cicada Sword in his hand. Then, he gently flicked the body of the sword and let out a long sword hum. He said, "I've been waiting for you."
At the same time, in Yuan Xia, Minister Duan and Sheng Zheng arrived at the giant ship prepared for them by the Hall of Yuan. Although the two belonged to the Upper and Lower Halls, they still had to maintain a certain degree of harmony on the surface in order to cooperate this time.
Moreover, Minister Duan was the Upper Hall's minister in charge of communicating with the Lower Hall. The two sides had frequent dealings. This time, the Upper Hall sent him as the host of the Upper Hall side in consideration of the convenience of communicating with the Lower Hall.
The two chatted for a while. At this time, a cultivator walked over and bowed to Minister Duan. He said, "Minister Duan, that Tianxia emissary has received the letter, but he hasn't done anything for many days. I don't think he intends to send it back."
Sheng Zheng looked at Minister Duan playfully and said, "It seems that Minister Duan's plan didn't work."
This letter looked rather ordinary, but in fact, every word on it was written with the Qi extracted from a certain treasure. If it was sent to Tianxia's territory without any preparation, it would form some kind of connection and guide them in the right direction. There were also some other magical uses.
Minister Duan wasn't too disappointed. He said, "This isn't a difficult matter. It's best if it works, but it's okay if it doesn't. At least we know that Tianxia isn't arrogant and complacent after defeating me twice. He's still very cautious."
At this time, he waved his hand, and a map of Heavenly Summer appeared in front of the large platform. However, it looked bumpy and full of holes. This was because all of the areas that were revealed on the map were areas that had been investigated and confirmed to be real after several attacks.
After looking at it for a while, he said, "Minister Sheng, can you be sure that every time we attack, it will be the hiding place of the upper echelon cultivators of Tianxia?"
Sheng Zheng snorted and said, "Minister Duan, is there a need to delve into this question? Whether it's true or not, we'll know after we fight. "
Minister Duan nodded and said, "Yes, we'll know after we fight." He stood with his sleeves behind his back and looked outside the wall of the platform. Outside, the flying ships and treasure formations almost filled the void. Their spiritual light illuminated the void like clusters of nebulae.
Even though he had asked for a complete dao technique, he was still in high spirits after presiding over such a huge force. He said, "Since everyone is ready, it's time for us to set off."
Sheng Zheng said, "Then this time, I'll let Minister Duan open the door between the two worlds."
Minister Duan did not stand on ceremony. He took out a spell and communicated with the Sky Carrying Diagram. Then, with a change of his mind, the Qi of the Sky Carrying Diagram surged out and disappeared into the void.
According to the previous situation, it would directly penetrate the passage between the two worlds and then tear open the sky wall of Tianxia. Then, it would move all of them over in one go.
However, this time, after channeling for a while, he felt that the Qi kept landing on empty space. There was no movement for a long time.
Sheng Zheng raised her eyebrows and reached out to grab the Qi of the Sky Carrying Diagram. She was shocked at first, then she snorted and said, "So it's Tianxia that set up a barrier."
Minister Duan also tried to explain and understood the whole story. Just as they were about to set off, they met with such an obstacle. His expression could not help but darken. He pondered for a while and said, "It seems like we can only take one step at a time."
Originally, with the help of the Sky Carrying Diagram, the place they should be heading to should be where Tianxia was.
However, Tianxia seemed to have set up some kind of barrier, causing the Qi to be unable to guide them there. It was equivalent to sealing the path, leaving only one entrance that they had to pass through. If they did not change their original method, then they could only go from there. They could not enter in one go.
Just as Tianxia had predicted, they did not have such a Sky Carrying Diagram to break through the barrier. In the past, they had never encountered a force that set up such a barrier on the passage between the two worlds. And if they wanted to adjust, they would have to delay for a long time. They had already gathered their forces to attack. How could they stop? Moreover, to them, this was just a little troublesome.
Sheng Zheng said coldly, "Our strategy is to exhaust Tianxia. No matter what tactic Tianxia uses, it will not hinder us."
Minister Duan flicked his sleeve and said, "You're right. Since he has set up layers of barriers, then we will break through them one by one. I only hope that they can hold on."
