Chapter 11: Ying Zheng Personally Goes to Invite the Martial God
Taoist School.
Heaven Sect.
A stream of light descended, then disappeared in mid-air. At the same time, a sword technique—”The Highest Good is Like Water”—appeared in the mind of the Heaven Sect Leader, Xiao Meng.
A moment later.
Seeing Xiao Meng finish receiving the reward, Bei Mingzi slowly spoke.
“Xiao Meng.”
“Master!”
Xiao Meng’s clear, cold gaze looked over, calm as water.
“Just now, when the reward was given, did you gain any insights?”
Bei Mingzi asked.
“The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and humanity escapes one, which is a line of life.”
Xiao Meng raised her head, her clear, cold eyes gazing at the Divine Sword List, as if they were the starry sky, beautiful, profound, and mysterious.
Her voice was calm, without a trace of emotion:
“To wear a crown, one must bear its weight. Accepting the Great Dao’s reward means enduring the Great Dao’s test. The falling light indicates the wielder’s location, and that is the test.”
“The light did not completely fall, but disappeared in mid-air, making it impossible to determine the wielder’s exact location. This is where the line of life lies.”
Bei Mingzi lightly stroked his beard, his eyes filled with a smile. He nodded slightly, very satisfied with Xiao Meng’s insights:
“Xiao Meng, you are exceptionally talented, naturally close to the Dao, and your cultivation progresses rapidly. But reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. The Dao follows nature. You can now descend the mountain and train!”
“Thank you for your teachings, Master. Your disciple will remember them.”
Xiao Meng nodded slightly, then her gaze remained unchanged, fixed on the Divine Sword List.
At this time.
On the Tai’a, ranked fourteenth on the Divine Sword List, a beam of light fell towards the Little Sage Manor in Dongjun.
On the Yuan Hong, ranked thirteenth on the Divine Sword List, a beam of light fell into Xianyang.
Regarding this.
No one was surprised.
The owners of these divine weapons were well known.
However.
When a beam of light fell towards the side of Xianyang from the Jingni, ranked twelfth on the Divine Sword List, Zhao Gao was surprised.
He did not expect that Jingni would actually be right next to Xianyang.
At this moment, he was somewhat conflicted.
Towards that man who used a bow and arrow back then.
He felt a bit of fear in his heart.
But now, Ying Zheng and everyone else knew the approximate location of Jingni.
If he did not act, what would Ying Zheng think?
He had told Ying Zheng before that he could not find Jingni.
“I didn’t expect Jingni to be right next to Xianyang, how bold. This servant will definitely capture him and retrieve the Jingni Sword!”
Zhao Gao knelt on the ground, forcing himself to say.
As the Head Eunuch of the Qin Imperial Household and controller of a powerful weapon like the Net, he had worked hard over the years and gathered many experts under his command.
Although he was still a bit wary of that man, he wanted to try, to wash away his past humiliation.
“Mm.”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, without any expression. At this moment, he was more concerned about where the Martial God was.
At this time.
The reward for the eleventh ranked on the Divine Sword List had been given, and a 《Imperial Ancestral Dragon Art》 appeared in Ying Zheng’s mind.
Next.
It would be the top ten of the Divine Sword List.
Not only Ying Zheng was paying attention.
All the experts in the world held their breath, staring motionlessly at the Divine Sword List.
Buzz.
The Divine Sword List trembled, and one after another, ten dazzling rays of light burst out, falling towards Xianyang like shooting stars, one after another.
“What? The Martial God is actually in Xianyang?”
“No! That’s not Xianyang, it’s next to Xianyang!”
“Huh, it seems like the reward for Jingni was also there!”
“Yes! It’s there!”
“Could it be that Jingni and the Martial God are related? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that they are in the same place?”
“It’s very possible. Maybe the reason why Jingni was able to rank twelfth, surpassing Yuan Hong, is related to the Martial God!”
Seeing the direction of the light, the world was in an uproar.
“What is that place?”
Ying Zheng’s voice was low, with a hint of excitement.
He did not expect that the Martial God would be so close to him, right next to Xianyang.
If the Martial God was there, it meant the Dragon Core was also there, and immortality was within reach.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, if this servant is not mistaken, that place is Shu He County!”
Zhao Gao immediately replied.
Although he was a eunuch, he had good talent and knowledge. Moreover, Shu He County was not far from Xianyang, and he could tell at a glance.
“Zhao Gao, you immediately go to Shu He County at the fastest speed to convey my decree. If the Martial God can offer the Dragon Core, I will bestow upon him the title of King of Qin, and he will share the country with me. I will be a sworn brother with him, and we will share wealth and prosperity!”
Ying Zheng excitedly ordered.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Zhao Gao did not dare to delay. He knew that if he was late, the Martial God might consume the Dragon Core.
“No, I will go personally!”
Ying Zheng added: “Zhao Gao, you go ahead to convey the decree. I will arrive shortly.”
“Your Majesty, you absolutely must not!”
Li Si was greatly alarmed and quickly advised: “Now that the remnants of the Six States and the Hundred Schools of Thought all know that the Martial God is in Shu He County, Shu He County will surely become a target, with all sorts of people mixed in. Your Majesty’s precious body must not take such a risk!”
“Yes, Your Majesty’s safety is related to the Qin Empire’s fate. Having the Head Eunuch go to convey the decree is enough to show Your Majesty’s imperial grace. There is no need to go personally…”
Feng Quji spoke with emotion, also advising.
“My mind is made up, no need to say more.”
Ying Zheng waved his hand, brooking no argument: “Zhang Han, prepare the carriages and horses, and immediately head to Shu He County.”
◈◈◈
Faced with the temptation of immortality, even Ying Zheng could not hold back.
He had to go personally.
Firstly, to show his sincerity.
Secondly, he could not wait any longer.
“Zhao Gao, you go over there immediately to convey the decree, and be sure to deliver my decree before the Martial God consumes the Dragon Core!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Zhao Gao accepted the decree and immediately retreated.
He knew that Ying Zheng valued the Dragon Core, and did not dare to delay. After leaving the palace, he immediately ordered Yan Ri to rush to Shu He County at full speed.
At the same time.
This work is organized and uploaded by 69 Book Bar~~
He himself led the Six Sword Slaves to rush over.
Ying Zheng also did not delay. Under the escort of Zhang Han’s Shadow Guards, he led five thousand elite Qin soldiers towards Shu He County with great momentum.
◈◈◈
Yin-Yang School.
Rosheng Hall.
“The Martial God is in Shu He County, next to Xianyang!”
Yue Shen and Donghuang Taiyi, based on the light that fell from the Divine Sword List’s rewards, immediately determined the Martial God’s location.
“Set off immediately, and be sure to find the Martial God before anyone else!”
Donghuang Taiyi gave an order, and his figure disappeared from the Rosheng Hall.
“Yes, Lord Donghuang!”
Xing Hun, Yue Shen, and others did not dare to delay and immediately headed towards Shu He County.
◈◈◈
Mohist School.
Mechanical City.
Yan Dan stood on the mountain peak, his heart excited, with an undisguised fiery desire in the depths of his eyes: “The Dragon Core, the Evil-Repelling Sword, the Divine Dragon Sword…”
These were all his.
He must obtain them!
“Grand Master, looking at the location where the light fell, it should be near Xianyang. As long as we inquire around Xianyang, we will surely be able to find the exact location.”
Gao Jianli looked into the distance and said in a deep voice.
He was proficient in swordsmanship, but he was not familiar with astrology and geography, unlike the Yin-Yang School, which could determine the exact location immediately.
However, with his knowledge, he could still see the approximate location.
“Good, you take Da Tie Chui and go first, I will arrive shortly!”
Yan Dan ordered.
He did not plan to go with Gao Jianli. Alone, he could do more things in secret.
“Yes, Grand Master.”
Gao Jianli, carrying the Water-Cold Sword, led Da Tie Chui, Dao Zhi, and other Mohist disciples, quickly heading towards Xianyang.
◈◈◈
Great Marsh Mountain.
Farming School.
Lieshan Hall.
“Big Brother, the Martial God is near Xianyang. He has the top ten divine swords of the Divine Sword List, as well as the Dragon Core that can grant immortality, and the Three Revolutions Fortune Pill that increases lifespan and power by a hundred years. Treasures should belong to those with virtue. How can he be worthy of occupying so many treasures!”
Tian Hu held the Tiger Soul Sword, excitedly saying: “If our Farming School’s ten thousand disciples obtain the divine sword and treasures from the Martial God, who in the world would be our match?”
“That’s right! How can these treasures fall into the hands of an unknown Martial God? The opportunity for the Farming School to flourish has arrived. Gather the experts from the Farming School’s six halls, and we will set off immediately!”
Tian Meng’s thick eyebrows and large eyes, his hair flying, his hair upturned, his face fierce, tightly gripped the Gan Jiang and Mo Ye in his hand, his heart surging.
If he consumed the Dragon Core, he would be invincible, immortal, and with the Farming School’s ten thousand disciples, he would even dare to pull the First Emperor down from his throne.
“Big Brother, I’m afraid that the Shennong Hall’s Zhu Family may not listen to us.”
Gonggong Hall’s Tian Zhong hesitated.
“Hmph, no need to care about that old fellow from the Zhu Family. If he dares to compete with us for the treasures, I will kill him with one sword!”
Tian Hu’s eyes were filled with ferocity. Because the Farming School’s Heroic Leader, Tian Guang, had disappeared, Tian Meng and the Zhu Family were openly and secretly competing for the position of Heroic Leader, and the two sides were at odds with each other.
“Set off!”
Tian Meng did not say much, and led Tian Hu, Tian Zhong, Bone Demon, Dumb Slave, Mr. Jin, and other Farming School experts towards Xianyang.
◈◈◈
Taoist School.
Heaven Sect.
Bei Mingzi sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, his back to Xiao Meng. His calm and indifferent voice sounded: “Going to Shu He County?”
“Mm.”
Xiao Meng’s soft voice came, her jade hand lightly lifting the duster Qiu Li, her slender and shapely legs walking towards the foot of the mountain.
Her figure was tall, her curves undulating. She wore a green dress, her weapons eye-catching.
Her snow-white silver hair was tied high, her gaze was clear, cold, and arrogant. Her pace seemed slow, but she moved several meters with each step, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared from the mountain peak.
◈◈◈
Shu He County.
A small, unknown county, now attracted the attention of all the experts in the world, and countless experts were flocking towards it.
This was.
Mountains are not high, but they become famous with immortals.
Waters are not deep, but they become spiritual with dragons.
However, no one knew that the ‘immortal-like, extraordinary’ Martial God they were looking for was currently in the Flying Immortal Pavilion, resting on a beauty’s lap, enjoying himself.
