Ye Ya State, Wei Family's army encampment.
Two days ago, the Wei Family's army received a conscription order from the Military Affairs Department. They knew that this was going to be a tough battle, so they recruited more people and increased the number of mercenaries to thousands.
For this battle, the Military Affairs Department of Kui Su ordered the military departments of each state to open up their arsenals, allowing the conscripted troops to purchase armaments from them at a lower cost.
The Wei Family's army immediately seized this rare opportunity and borrowed a sum of gold from the bank to purchase a large number of black armors and black weapons.
However, this time, their biggest reliance was still the Qingyang Black Armor. After several deployments, although these armors were damaged to a certain extent, it was not as great as imagined. At least, it would not be a problem to withstand another fierce battle.
While the Wei Clan's army was actively preparing, Qing Shu came to the encampment and brought a message, "Mister was invited to move with the main army this time, so this time, Mister will not be able to come to the camp to guard the town."
Wei Lingying was already mentally prepared for this. She said seriously, "Thank you, Qing Shu, for coming to inform us. With such great ability, Governor Zhang should not be restricted to our Wei Family's army. That would be a waste of talent."
Jin Xiaobai revealed a worried expression. Without Zhang Yu, their Wei Family's army would have no cultivator to guard it. If they encountered an unexpected situation, they might not be able to react at all.
Qing Shu said, "Everyone, don't worry. Mister has already arranged for Mr. Zuo to guard the Wei Family's army. The Military Affairs Department has also promised to give the Wei Family's army a certain amount of subsidies."
When everyone heard this, they immediately felt relieved.
Zuo Xuanxiu was naturally capable. Most importantly, this person had been working for Zhang Yu. Obviously, Zhang Yu did not intend to give up on them.
At this moment, Liang Yi, who was visiting everywhere, also received the conscription order from the Military Affairs Department.
For the past few days, he had continuously challenged several famous experts and won all of them. However, the sudden war had disrupted his plans.
However, he had only been registered in the Military Affairs Department for less than a month. Logically speaking, he could reject the conscription. However, he thought that it might not be a bad thing. If he displayed enough strength in this war, it would also be beneficial for him to spread his name.
After making up his mind, he returned to the barren mountain range from before and found the old Daoist. He then told the old Daoist about his plans.
The old Taoist also agreed, "This is indeed a good opportunity. I can let them prepare a powerful black weapon for you …"
Liang Yi shook his head, "This method is not appropriate. No matter how good the observer is, he is only an assistant. No matter how powerful the black to be, Xuan Weapon is, it does not belong to the cultivator. Even if I achieve great results, I will not be accepted by my fellow cultivators."
The old Daoist said disapprovingly, "Aren't Xuan weapons and magic tools the same? They're just tools in our hands. What's the difference? "
"It's not the same."
Liang Yi said in a low voice, "Magic weapons are at least created by cultivators. Naturally, they will be accepted by cultivators. However, black to black is a creation. The more powerful it is, the more it will be rejected by cultivators. To change this is not something that can be done in a short period of time. If possible, please prepare some lightning pearls for me."
The old Taoist pondered and said, "Lightning pearls … Although it is a little troublesome, I will prepare them for you."
Liang Yi clasped his hands and said, "Fellow cultivator, I will leave it to you."
You City.
In a certain hall, a young disciple was reporting to Daoist Yue, who was sitting on a throne.
"Master, all the armies in Kui Constellation are now rushing towards Heaven City. In just two days, they have gathered more than three hundred thousand soldiers. This does not include the main army of Heaven City."
Daoist Yue looked at the map of Kui Constellation. The entire Kui Constellation Star could be seen as a huge military camp. Everything was for the sake of war. Therefore, with a single order, enough soldiers would be gathered.
He stroked his beard and said, "Looks like the Military Department of Kui Constellation is serious this time." He then asked, "What about the other side?"
The young disciple said, "From the information we received, Governor Zhang will also participate in this war. However, this person's identity is special. We speculate that when the time comes, he may move together with the main army. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to find an opportunity."
Daoist Yue did not mind and said, "If there is no opportunity on the way, then we will look for one during the war."
He took a chess piece and moved it on the map. He placed it on one of the planets and said, "This time, we will stand on Shangchen's side."
Yi Wei Heavenly City, inside the library.
Zhang Yu came out of the office. He did not return to his residence. Instead, he kept flipping through the documents.
In order to prepare for the upcoming war, and also to thank him for his efforts, Hong Yuanqiu opened up Heaven City's library for him to read. He also said that if there was anything he liked, the Military Department could give it to him.
Because there was no Xuanfu in the outer layer, the Military Department replaced Xuanfu's role to a certain extent.
In the past two hundred years, the Daoist cultivators who guarded the Military Department left behind many records and books. They also collected many rare seals.
If it were not for this war and his identity as a Governor, the Military Department would not have let him go so easily.
Zhang Yu stayed here for three days. During this time, he flipped through many records of the past and present. He felt that he had gained a lot.
On the fourth day, Hong Yuanqiu sent someone to invite him again. Only then did he leave the library and come to the main hall of the Office again.
After Hong Yuanqiu greeted him, he said with a serious expression, "Governor, I received news that You City may also join this war. Therefore, we still need to be on guard against people from You City."
"You City?" Zhang Yu thought for a moment. He said, "Has Director Hong informed the Golden Eye Bureau?"
Hong Yuanqiu said, "I have already informed them. However, the Golden Eye Bureau is not able to do much on the battlefield. We can only rely on ourselves." He reached into his sleeve and handed over a talisman. He said, "Please keep it well."
Zhang Yu asked, "What is this?"
Hong Yuanqiu said, "This is a talisman concealing talisman given by Xuan Zun. There are three in total. I have one with me. One was given to General Luan, who is in charge of the army this time. This one is given to the Governor."
Zhang Yu nodded and took it. He said, "Thank you." He kept the talisman and said, "When will Director Hong move out?"
Hong Yuanqiu said, "The sooner this matter is resolved, the better. I have already scouted out the situation there. Therefore, I plan to set off on the 20th. If the war is delayed, we may have to spend the New Year outside."
Zhang Yu asked, "Director, have you found out who is going to become Xuan Zun this time?"
Hong Yuanqiu said in a low voice, "At present, I am not sure. I only know that it must be a direct disciple of Xuan Zun. However, it is not important who this person is. We only need to attack the center of the formation and drive out the Daoist cultivators of Shangchen. Then, we will be able to destroy this person's plan!"
At this moment, in the depths of the void, almost at the edge of the Kui Mansion, a white planet was floating.
The surface of the planet was covered with array jade pillars. Looking down from the sky, it looked like jade-colored ribbons wrapped around the planet.
At the location of the planet's navel, there was a jade platform that went straight into the clouds. It was a flight of stairs, and on each level sat a haggard-looking Daoist soldier. They held array flags in their arms, faintly emitting a murderous aura.
At the top of the platform sat two young cultivators, one male and one female. Both of them looked to be in their early twenties. The male cultivator had a full head of black hair, green eyebrows, and wore a loose robe that was as white as the clouds.
The female cultivator's lips were red. Her eyebrows were delicate, and her skin had a jade-like luster. Her hair was tied to the ground, and she wore a flame-like red robe.
These two people were Meng Shen and Su'Er. Both of them were preparing to harvest the three treasures with the intention of breaking through to the next realm.
When the two of them sat there, they had a sense of unreality, as if they were detached from the world. This was because they had taken the heavy medicine given by their respective sects. As long as they had enough treasures, they could try to find a way to break through to the next realm.
Su'Er's red lips opened easily, "Senior Apprentice Brother, I heard that Kui Su's side is ready to make their move."
Meng Shen said, "It's good that they're here. Only when they're here will there be enough essence blood to irrigate the array and help us break through to the next realm. It's a pity that the timing is still a little early. Otherwise, we could be more prepared, and the array would be more secure."
Su'Er looked up with envy in her eyes, "Speaking of which, the one most likely to succeed this time is still Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother. We're just accompanying him."
Meng Shen seemed to be open-minded, "Since Master has given us the opportunity, what are we not satisfied with? There are so many of us, but only the two of us can sit here in the end. "
Su'Er looked at him and said, "When did Senior Apprentice Brother become so straightforward? You don't have to be afraid. Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother has sealed his senses. Until the array is activated, he won't be aware of what's happening outside. "
Meng Shen just laughed.
Su'Er curled her lips and said, "Senior Apprentice Brother is so timid. Forget it, I'll say it." She took a deep breath and said, "Master has us here to protect Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother on the surface, but when necessary, we'll be Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother's resources. Do you understand, Second Senior Apprentice Brother? "
Meng Shen stared at her for a while and said, "Junior Apprentice Sister, why do you have to say it?"
Su'Er said, "So what if I say it? Second Senior Apprentice Brother, let me tell you, it won't be so easy to pass this time. Kui Su can easily gather millions of soldiers and tens of thousands of cultivators. Thinking about these people coming towards us, I can't breathe. Only by working together will we be able to get through this. "
Meng Shen said, "What do you plan to do?"
Su'Er said, "For no other reason than to think about ourselves. Why should we give all the essence blood we harvested to Eldest Senior Apprentice Brother? Can't we just keep it for ourselves? "
Meng Shen's expression changed, and he said hesitantly, "But Master …"
Su'Er snorted and said, "If Master shows up, I don't believe that Kui Su's Xuan Zun won't do anything. At that time, he won't be able to take care of us, and we'll just have to rely on our own abilities. If the two of us can become Xuan Zun, will we still need to fear Master? "
Meng Shen thought for a long time, but he still couldn't make up his mind. He just said vaguely, "It's still too early to say this. Let's see how the situation turns out."
