Two Realms: I use martial arts to ask for longevity

Chapter 492: The Wolf + Assassin
“I won’t go there. The Brahma Temple has a profound heritage. It would be dangerous if we attack it forcefully.

This time, with the full support of the Tang family, we will be able to lead a dignified army and take over one city after another."

Doesn’t Zhou Ping’an know it himself?

The decision to go to Jinhe County alone to deal with the Tang family was already a huge risk.

This moment, that moment.

At that time, the Tang family and the Brahma Temple were united. Not to mention the difference in the territory and military strength controlled by both sides, just the number of masters...

If we really prepare for war with all our strength, the other side, relying on their size, will send out dozens of Zhenwu realm masters, and the army will invade us with endless miraculous skills and feats, which will crush us to death.

So, we had to move.

Defeat one side of the enemy before the masters from the two forces' paradise show up.

And the results now are even better than originally imagined.

The Tang family is no longer an enemy, but a helper.

This battle will be much easier to fight.

As one side gained strength while the other side lost strength, they gained the upper hand on the front battlefield for the first time.

At this time, there is no need to take any more risks. The troops can be divided into two groups to attack Chitong and Nanping counties directly... Finally, they can encircle Fukuhara, the capital of Jiangzhou County, and fight a decisive battle.

Zhou Ping'an called this tactic "peeling an onion."

The two armies advanced slowly, occupying and ruling a city at a time, and were never impatient.

Stability is the best choice.

“In this case, there will be two choices at the Brahma Temple.

One option is to send more strong men to reinforce the cities in the two counties.

In an open-air battle, we naturally have the confidence to defeat the monks sent by the temple one by one."

In Zhou Ping'an's opinion, with his current military strength and the combat effectiveness of his subordinates.

Even if he didn't take action personally, with just Bai He and the Tang family's Zhenwu realm masters, especially the great elder Tang Yu, as long as the Brahma Temple didn't gamble everything on it, it would be in vain to send out more monks.

"What if they withdraw their forces and ignore the two counties and cities, but retreat to the county city of Fukuhara and join forces together?"

Tang Wan practiced the Tianhe Suanzhang.

Anything can be counted.

Just a little deduction in my mind, I found that the best way for Brahma Temple to deal with the situation is actually to stay at the foot of Mount Fukuhara.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Jiangzhou County have been baptized by the teachings of Brahma, and their faith is extremely strong.

In Fukuhara Castle.

Even an illiterate 70-year-old woman can recite whole Sanskrit mantras...

That's their home ground.

Why is the power of a Brahma secret technique completely different when used in Fuyuan than in other places?

Tang Wan even suspected that the small Buddha statues scattered around the city in the Brahma Temple might be able to provide incense and prayer power to cooperate with the monks in performing special moves.

It will become very difficult.

"does not matter."

Zhou Ping'an said with a smile: "If the Brahma monks gather together, they will give up the five counties of Jiangzhou.

After gathering our strength and resources, our cultivation will also see rapid growth.

The morale of the army and the will of the people are all in my hands. When the time comes, I can advance or retreat freely.

If we really can't defeat them on their territory, it's just a county town, so what if we give it to them?"

"right."

Tang Wan's eyes sparkled.

Suddenly woke up.

From the beginning to the end, Zhou Ping'an did not want the title of governor of a province in the imperial court.

For him, it didn't matter whether he was the governor of a province or not.

As long as there is enough territory, enough people under the rule, and the people's support, you can gather boundless momentum and expand yourself and your own power infinitely.

If we can't take Fukuhara Castle, then we won't fight.

After achieving actual results and digesting them well, you can then go north to Yunzhou and Xuezhou, or head east to Wenzhou.

Moreover, there is another benefit to this.

That is, if he had not taken Jiangzhou completely, he might not have made the Ping'an Army the primary target of the imperial court's Western Army's southward advance.

After all, compared to the Red Lotus Army, which had more than 40 counties rebelling at the same time and shouting "Rebuilding the World", Zhou Ping'an's Ping'an Army was much weaker...

Near the provincial capital, the Red Lotus Army and the Mingyu Palace troops have already conquered half of the cities in Wenzhou...

In the direction of Yunzhou, the troops of the Hongye Palace confronted and fought with Xiao Yuanfang and the Pei family. Although they were slightly at a disadvantage, they still occupied thirteen cities and showed no signs of defeat.

And here in Jiangzhou.

Except for the three counties recently conquered by Zhou Ping'an.

And Fukuhara Castle, the headquarters of Brahma Temple...

Other places such as Chitong and Nanping are also in the midst of fierce wars, and are targets of attack by the Lianxin Palace army, an old acquaintance of Zhou Ping'an.

It also occupied eight cities.

In this situation.

If Zhou Ping'an wants to continue sending troops to advance, he will soon not only confront the forces under Brahma's rule, but also have to quell a rebellion and have another hard fight with the Red Lotus Army and the Lianxin Palace's troops.

……

"Brother, are you not sure?"

Tang Shimin stood in the ancestral temple and burned incense to each of the Tang family's ancestors one by one. After he finished paying his respects, he sighed softly with a lonely look on his face.

“Don’t think about it. We all agreed that you were suitable to be the clan leader because you have a calm temperament and always consider failure before success.

With you as the clan leader, even if the Tang family cannot become more powerful, at least they will not offend enemies that they cannot afford to offend for no reason, leading to decline. "

Tang Yu stood with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at the lake outside the window. His voice was neither happy nor worried, and the whole place was calm.

“It turns out that it’s actually quite good that you decided to surrender and immediately not to go back on your word.

Although I was a little soft-hearted when teaching my children and grandchildren, I did nothing wrong in this matter.”

Although I still haven't gotten any definite news from Tang Yu.

However, Tang Shimin already understood.

Even his cousin Tang Yu, the pillar of the Tang family who was only half a step away from becoming a god, was not sure that he could stay safe next week.

This may sound sarcastic, but it is not.

Tang Yu always speaks directly and rarely tells lies.

Perhaps, although they seemed to be on good terms that day, the two sides had secretly clashed and tested each other countless times.

Tang Shimin knew that before Tang Yu became the Great Elder, he practiced the art of "Water Moon Mirror Flower", which was known for illuminating everything and deducing all things.

Others don’t know what specific effect this mental method has.

However, as the closest brother in the clan, Tang Shimin has seen it many times.

Whenever Tang Yu saw an opponent, he would capture a glimpse of his shadow and enter into the illusion of his mind to practice against the enemy.

In this way, as long as the opponent's cultivation is not much higher than his, all his special moves and hidden tricks are meaningless in front of him.

Do you have the ability? Pull out a phantom and fight a thousand times to see who is better.

Moreover, this process is just a mental deduction, and the opponent will not be aware of it at all.

"What's the chance of winning?"

Tang Shimin opened his mouth wide and asked in a hoarse voice after a long while.

"Three hundred and sixty games."

Tang Yu's voice remained calm, but a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.

"I won three games."

……

"The Divine Martial Realm is still on the path of the unity of heaven and man. Heaven and earth are me, and I am heaven and earth."

Although Zhou Ping'an had just entered the Zhenwu realm not long ago.

However, with his mental strength, he was already able to get a glimpse of the mysteries of the Divine Martial Realm from Great Elder Tang Yu.

“Look at that old man. He is still able to live in this world without being suppressed or rejected. He probably hasn’t really entered the realm of divine martial arts.

However, he was already able to initially utilize a bit of the power of the Divine Martial Realm.

Under the influence of his spirit, the laws within a radius of several hundred feet can all be slightly changed. It is truly terrifying..."

Zhou Ping'an is very confident in himself.

Faced with this great master who seems to have already mastered the rudiments of his field, one still dare not underestimate him at all.

Because he was not sure what kind of rules the other party would use to make it difficult for him to deal with...

'At least, in his field, he can manipulate the energy of heaven and earth and generate various illusions...

Not only is it an illusion, it can even actually create wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Not to mention an absolute blockade, but at least it will give us every advantage.'

"In this situation, the chances of winning a life-and-death battle against an enemy whose strength is unknown are indeed slim."

Think so.

Zhou Ping'an was not disappointed.

Instead, I felt a little happy.

Now, Great Elder Tang Yu has become one of us.

The stronger he is, the more stable our side will be.

Nothing wrong with that either.

Moreover, this field control technique is not impossible to imitate and learn.

After discussing with Tang Wan.

Zhou Pingan did not disturb her again. Having just broken through to the Grandmaster level of Heaven and Man Induction, he needed to integrate all his cultivation and skills into it and adapt to the new way of fighting.

It will take several days.

And what about Lin Huaiyu?

The meaning of the Mingyue Sword of Xiu is the bright moon shining brightly...

What is most needed at this time is not to fight with others, but to understand the world and sharpen the soul.

Meet all kinds of souls, some dark, some bright, see all things in the world, and understand your own true meaning.

The most suitable way for her to practice sword skills is to deal with various affairs and interpersonal relationships.

The more complicated and chaotic things are, the more you can refine your mind and spirit, until you have a mind as pure as the flawless cold moon...

When you draw your sword, you can see through some illusions and point directly to the true inner self.

The third level of subtlety is the "Peeping into the Void" level, where one can see through all tactics and the enemy's weaknesses.

Without the blessing of the divine light of heavenly wisdom, Zhou Ping'an didn't know how to "transmit" this ability.

Therefore, Lin Huaiyu would not do that.

However, if she continues on this path of tempering her mind in the mortal world and being illuminated by the bright moon, sooner or later she will reach the same destination and gain the ability to see through everything.

By that time, the power of her already miraculous swordsmanship would naturally increase several times.

Zhou Ping'an saw everything Lin Huaiyu did, and guided her silently without interfering.

The third young lady does a great job with household affairs.

It saves me a lot of effort.

At this moment, he had time to ponder the force of the field that he had sensed at the Tang family.

"Burning wish power."

At this time, the power of vows had accumulated to more than 2.3 million.

Among them, there were a few golden ones, one purple one, and seventy-eight red ones.

Zhou Ping'an was reluctant to use the high-level wish-power thread.

He somehow felt that he might have a more important occasion to use those powers.

To comprehend skills and learn by deduction, this white wish power is enough.

"One hundred thousand, yesterday again."

A thought flashed through Zhou Ping'an's mind.

One hundred thousand threads of wish power have burned, turning into a rolling torrent and flowing into the mind.

His eyes turned golden in an instant, and he looked down at everything in the world like a god.

Recalling the scene when Tang Yu, the eldest elder of the Tang family, first appeared.

The thoughts in my mind sped up countless times, and memories strung together like pearls. Some emotions and perceptions that I saw at the time but didn't really notice also revealed their true colors one by one.

Every change in the vital energy and every touch of mental strength seem to be given another layer of meaning.

At this moment, he saw the world in front of him quietly changing.

The mountains are not mountains, the water is not water.

The manor is not an estate either.

Every blade of grass and every tree has changed its appearance.

Those were groups of black and white energy chasing each other...

There was a flash of light before my eyes, and then it turned into a stream of air rotating with five colors.

Looking more closely, the black and white and the five colors are all gone.

What I saw again were flowers, trees, clear lake water, and elegant pavilions...

"boom!"

A sound of spring thunder seemed to ring out in Zhou Ping'an's mind.

It was so shocking that even my soul trembled slightly.

His eyes darkened.

Get out of this state of mind.

Deep in my heart, I feel both moved and lost.

I touched the corner of my eye and found that it was slightly wet.

"After all, my divine will is insufficient, and I cannot stay in this state of mind for long. I can only see a small part of the world...

I don't know whether that old man Tang Yu has truly comprehended the principles of Yin Yang and the Five Elements, or whether he has only grasped a little bit of them unintentionally. "

Zhou Ping'an tends to think that the other party only has a basic understanding of the subject.

Otherwise, with this great force alone, if even a tiny bit of it was pulled out, he would be no match at all.

"Although he only touched the surface, I didn't even touch the surface. However, I did learn a little bit of concealment from it."

Zhou Ping'an sighed and became slightly excited again.

The moment the black, white and five colors he had seen before disappeared from his sight, he saw a void in front of him. He could not see anything and could not sense anything clearly.

This situation, isn't it exactly the "Covering the Sky" secret skill among the "Four Divine Skills of Kunpeng" that he practiced?

Although there is a world of difference between the two.

However, the essence remains the same.

As he practiced the secret method of covering the sky, all kinds of insights came to his mind.

Suddenly, inspiration came flooding in.

Some problems that I haven’t figured out in the past.

Crack them one by one.

He seemed to see a pair of wings spread out before his eyes.

The sky and earth were empty and in chaos.

Everything, everything, does not exist.

He even merged himself into this chaotic darkness, leaving only a ray of spiritual light flashing, sensing everything around him.

“This is the real Heaven-shading.”

Zhou Ping'an felt the sense of harmony in his heart, a smile appeared on his face, and he raised his palm as a knife and chopped it down with one blow.

Bala...

The courtyard was silent, but there was a slight breeze blowing in all directions.

"Why is it dark?"

Lin Huaiyu was meeting with the Jinhe City Captain and instructing him to reorganize his troops and integrate them into the Ping'an Fifth Army.

Feeling the deep dissatisfaction of the city captain Qiu Da, she shook her head slightly in her heart and began to think about which position to put him. Anyway, she couldn't let him continue to lead the troops.

at this time.

Her vision went dark.

Not only can the eyes not see, the ears cannot hear, even the mental sense, when exploring, only detects nothing.

Only a ray of moonlight from deep within her soul illuminated her, allowing her to remain calm and prevent her from attacking immediately.

I was confused.

I saw the sky again, the furnishings in the house, the green grass and the rockery and lake outside the window.

I heard countless faint but distinct sounds in my ears again.

Poor families worry about daily necessities.

The rich and powerful murmur about the pain of sacrificing money to save their lives...

And the conspiracy among officials to secretly collude and discuss and agree on when to act together.

Everything came alive again before my eyes.

Lin Huaiyu no longer had any interest in warning Qiu Chengwei in front of him, but waved his hand and let him leave.

Suddenly, he reached out and touched his hair, and his expression changed drastically.

One thing is missing...

In the backyard of the county magistrate's mansion, next to the small lake and the rockery.

Tang Wan, who was dancing with a sword, drawing lines on a starry chessboard, suddenly stopped her swordplay, looking dazed.

She touched her earlobe and found that the jade earrings that her mother had put on her when she had her ears pierced at the age of twelve were gone.

Thinking of the sense deprivation she had just experienced, she raised her eyebrows and took a deep breath, her breath surging like a volcano about to erupt.

"Don't worry, it's me. I was just testing my secret magical powers."

Zhou Ping'an was speechless.

Seeing that Lin Huaiyu and Tang Wan both had expressions as if they were facing a formidable enemy, he knew that he had scared them and quickly sent a message to them.

After putting the earrings and jade hairpins on Tang Wan and Lin Huaiyu herself, she received a few cold stares and some scolding.

Zhou Ping'an returned to the study room feeling happy but a little embarrassed.

This time, he didn't try again.

He just silently comprehended the first of the four magical skills that he had cultivated to perfection.

“It’s a must-have skill for home travel, murder and arson.

With the help of this secret technique of covering the sky, combined with Xiaoyaoyou...

"When it comes to sneak attacks and plots, I really can't imagine how many people in the Zhenwu realm can withstand them."

"Could it be that my greatest talent is to become an assassin?"

Zhou Ping'an thought with a little weirdness.

……

Asking for a monthly ticket.
