Chapter 28: The Change in Western Xia
Great Song.
Capital City.
Chang Le Marquis Residence.
Li Qingzhao was also suddenly startled.
Her cherry-like mouth slightly opened.
After a long while, she said to Peng Feng with a mix of reproach and coquetry, “Husband actually has the strength of the first on the Earth List, but never mentioned it before.”
Peng Feng coughed lightly: “Well, you didn’t ask either. Besides, the martial arts world is full of unpredictable dangers, so hiding one’s strength is necessary. Alas, it’s a pity that this Heavenly Dao Ranking List exposes me every few years. It doesn’t even give me a chance to have some peace.”
Moreover!
Peng Feng also knew, don’t look at how strong he is now!
Having reached the top of the Earth List.
Even, he is much stronger than the outside world imagines.
He can already defeat those at the Land Immortal Realm First Level and Second Level.
But…
Now, the Jingkang Incident is getting closer and closer.
That is the shame of the Great Song!
That is also one of the greatest shames in the five thousand years of Chinese civilization!
Since he has transmigrated to this world, he must prevent the Jingkang Incident from happening!
But now, his strength is probably still not enough to prevent the Jingkang Incident!
He must become stronger!!!
◈◈◈
The Earth List has been updated.
Next is the update of the Heaven List.
The Great Song Heaven List.
There are only four people in total.
Fourth place, the Imperial Guard Commander Tong Guan.
Third place, the Great Song State Preceptor Lin Lingsu.
Second place, the Northwest Army Commander Zhong Shidao.
First place, as long as he ascends to the position of the Great Song Emperor, he will automatically advance to the Land Immortal Realm, Emperor Huizong of Song, Zhao Ji.
There is nothing to say about this ranking, it is exactly the same as ten years ago.
However.
At this time.
An astonishing change occurred.
The original Heaven List of Western Xia only had the Western Xia Emperor Li Ganshun.
After all, Western Xia only had one Land Immortal.
But the newly announced Heaven List of Western Xia has one more person.
Yeli Tongtian of the Yeli family of Western Xia!!!
That is to say, Western Xia suddenly has two Land Immortals—Li Ganshun and Yeli Tongtian.
This.
Is not very good!
Western Xia has always been ambitious.
And with the Liao Dynasty backing them up.
Before, with one Land Immortal, they dared to attack the border of the Song Dynasty.
Now that they have two Land Immortals, they will probably be even more troublesome.
Sure enough.
Less than a month after this news came out.
The two Land Immortals of Western Xia had already come out together, leading an army of 300,000 to attack the Jing and Yuan prefectures of the Song Dynasty.
Jing and Yuan prefectures are equivalent to the area east of the Liupan Mountains and west of the Pu River in present-day Gansu and Ningxia.
Jing and Yuan prefectures fell instantly.
Then, the military force of Western Xia broke through the Tong’an City of the Northern Song Dynasty and directly pointed to the Zhenwu City of the Song Dynasty.
Zhenwu City is where the Western Route Army of the Northern Song Dynasty is stationed.
Grand Marshal Zhong Shidao lives in Zhenwu City.
Facing the military force of Western Xia.
◈◈◈
Zhong Shidao had no choice but to make a move, fighting against the two Land Immortals of Western Xia, Li Ganshun and Yeli Tongtian. He was at a disadvantage in a one-against-two battle, suffered minor injuries, and retreated back to Zhenwu City.
Having no other choice.
Zhong Shidao could only ask the imperial court for reinforcements, requesting the court to send Land Immortals to support the Western Route Army.
After all, only Land Immortals can deal with Land Immortals.
And the reaction of the Great Song imperial court.
The Great Song imperial court certainly wanted to send Land Immortals to help.
But the Liao Dynasty has always been the backer of Western Xia.
Seeing Western Xia send troops to attack the Great Song, the Liao Dynasty immediately stationed heavy troops on the Song-Liao border.
Now, the Great Song had no choice, and the two Land Immortals Lin Lingsu and Tong Guan immediately went to the Song-Liao border.
And Emperor Huizong of Song, Zhao Ji, as the emperor, naturally had to sit in the capital and could not easily make a move.
The other three Land Immortals of the Great Song—Emperor Huizong, Lin Lingsu, and Tong Guan—had their own places to go. For a time, there was no one who could go to support the Western Route Army.
And the Western Route Army, facing the 300,000-strong army led by the two Land Immortals of Western Xia, was in danger of being overthrown at any time.
Many places in the Northwest fell into the hands of Western Xia.
And many people of the Great Song were massacred by Western Xia.
It can be said that the situation of the Great Song is very bad.
For a time.
People were discussing the war between the Great Song and Western Xia in the streets and alleys. And everyone knew that the Great Song could not spare any Land Immortals to go to the Song-Xia border, so they were not very optimistic about the war between the Great Song and Western Xia.
◈◈◈
Just as the war between the Great Song and Western Xia was in extreme danger.
In the Chang Le Marquis Residence.
Peng Feng was tidying up his clothes.
He was carrying the Sun Devouring Blade.
Prepared a gourd of wine.
And an old horse.
“Husband, are you going to Western Xia?” Li Qingzhao asked.
“Yes.” Peng Feng nodded.
“I know that husband has a heart to serve the country. But the biggest problem in Western Xia now is that the other side has two Land Immortals, and our side only has Grand Marshal Zhong, one Land Immortal.
As the saying goes, only Land Immortals can deal with Land Immortals.
Although husband is powerful and ranks first on the Great Song Earth List, I’m afraid you can’t defeat a Land Immortal.”
“On the contrary, because husband’s potential is too great, Western Xia will exert great effort to kill husband.”
Li Qingzhao said, “I’m not saying that husband shouldn’t serve the country. But if husband cultivates for another ten years or so, and reaches the Land Immortal Realm, then going to the battlefield will be of greater use to the country.”
Peng Feng nodded: “Yes, if I go to the battlefield between the Song and Western Xia, that would indeed be the case. But, who told you that your husband can’t defeat a Land Immortal???”
Li Qingzhao was stunned: “That’s impossible, only Land Immortals can deal with Land Immortals.”
Peng Feng said, “Wife, have you ever heard of a skill called the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill?”
“Of course I’ve heard of it. It is said that once this skill is practiced to the thirteenth level, it can increase one’s strength by two million catties. It is said that it takes thousands of years to complete, and it is said that it cannot be completed.” Li Qingzhao herself was also the third on the former Hidden Dragon List, and she was quite familiar with various skills, knowing them like the back of her hand.
Peng Feng smiled slightly and whispered to Li Qingzhao’s ear, “Let me tell you a secret. Actually, what your husband cultivates is the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill.
However, my cultivation speed is a little faster than ordinary people, so I have now cultivated to the twelfth level. This skill alone can increase my strength by one million catties.
In addition, I am also at the eighth level of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, which can increase my strength by 580,000 catties. My current strength is 1.58 million catties, and I can easily smash those at the Land Immortal Realm First Level and Second Level.
That Yeli Tongtian is just a newly promoted Land Immortal First Level, wait for me to go and smash him.”
Li Qingzhao’s eyes widened, and her cherry-like mouth opened wide: “Husband, you have completed the twelfth level of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill???? This is a skill that is said to take 8,000 years to cultivate.”
After a long while.
Li Qingzhao said, “Husband, your cultivation speed is really a billion times faster than others.”
“Since husband has such strength, then Qingzhao will wish husband here, to help my Great Song, and greatly defeat Western Xia.”
“Okay.” Peng Feng turned around and mounted his horse.
He rode away.
