After the Skyfall

Chapter 590 The Emperors Gather
"The power of the incense faith has increased again, and the increase is huge. It seems that after the destruction of Emperor Yin, the incense of the world is gathering towards the few remaining people. Even I, the national teacher, feel this way, let alone my father."

At this moment, Li Yi could clearly feel that the power of his faith and belief in the incense was even stronger than before, as if it had condensed into substance. When combined with his own magic power, a faint light was emitting from his entire body.

At this moment, he seemed to be omnipotent and possessed the power to shake the heavens and the earth. He was so powerful to an unprecedented level that it seemed a little unreal.

However, Li Yi was not confused by the temporary strength, because as long as he left this world and cut off the power of incense and faith, he would return to his usual state.

The person who benefited the most this time was Xiang Xiangzi.

She used the colorful stones to transform into a new body, and then relied on the power of incense and faith to restore her spiritual strength. Now, only a few days have passed, and the whole person seems to have been reborn. She is covered in rosy glow and auspicious colors, like a goddess descending to the earth.

Although his own strength has not recovered to its subversive state, given time, he will surely become an enlightened being in this world, and even going further is not impossible.

"Taiyi, it seems that we are not the only ones who have attacked Emperor Yin recently. Your father must have taken action as well, because I can sense that the power of incense faith has increased unreasonably twice recently, which means that two Emperor Yins have died. Together with the previous Emperor Shenzong and Emperor Guangzong, four Emperor Yins of the Zhao Dynasty have died."

Xiang Xiangzi said: "The remaining Yin Tianzi must have been alarmed. Look, this imperial tomb is now deserted, not even a statue of the god of incense is missing."

At this moment, the two of them came to a big mountain again.

This is the tomb of Emperor Yingzong of the Zhao Dynasty.

But now, the entire imperial mausoleum is empty. It is obvious that they had received the news and fled in advance.

"It seems that the remaining Yin Tianzi have united together. It is impossible to defeat them one by one. In this case, we should simply stop the action and continue to practice with the powerful power of incense and faith that has been gathered during this period."

"It's not us who are really anxious, but them, because we will become stronger and stronger as time goes by, but they can't." Li Yi thought for a while and said.

Xiang Xiangzi said: "That makes sense. It is not appropriate to take the initiative now. It is better to wait for them to come to us."

The two of them hit it off immediately, and decided to lead the Jinyiwei to destroy mountains and temples while concentrating on practicing.

Li Yi has currently opened up sixty major acupoints in his body, but his current realm is still at the third level of the Five Qi Realm, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. He had originally planned to concentrate on practicing after solving this matter, but now it seems that the plan has to be changed.

And as soon as the action here stopped.

The Shenwu Emperor Li Jiye immediately received the news from the Golden Eyed Guards.

At this moment, Li Jiye was rushing to where Emperor Zhenzong was. When he heard the news, he immediately understood that the opportunity had been lost. The remaining Yin emperors must have gathered together to discuss how to deal with himself and Taiyi Zhenren.

"Let Master Taiyi return to the capital and put the matter of destroying mountains and temples aside for now." Li Jiye asked the Golden Eyed Guard to deliver the message immediately.

At this time, we must work together to deal with the impending enemy and can no longer wander around outside.

Otherwise, if you are targeted, you will definitely be in great danger.

The capital city is shrouded in the aura of dragons and tigers, which have a restraining effect on the gods of incense and worship in the world. If one wants to deal with Emperor Yin, it is best to do so in the capital city, at least so that Emperor Yin can lose any external support.

But there are at least six remaining Yin emperors.

Do we have a chance of winning if I add Li Yi to the mix?
Li Jiye didn’t know, and now he could only give it a try.

After thinking it through, he immediately returned to Beijing with his subordinates.

In fact, Li Jiye's approach was correct.

Because at the same time.

The Zhao Dynasty was founded here. It is an area of ​​three hundred miles of fertile land, with a flourishing incense industry and a prosperous and thriving city, like a small capital city. This place is called Longcheng and has twelve statues of the emperor. There are countless incense sticks in front of each statue.

But just a few days ago, four statues of emperors collapsed for no apparent reason and turned into rubble on the ground.

The emergence of this situation indicates that four Yin emperors have encountered unexpected events.

Such important news naturally could not be hidden from the eyes of Emperor Yin. They smelled the crisis and gathered in Longcheng without any prior arrangement to discuss countermeasures.

At this moment, inside a clan temple in Longcheng.

There were six Yin Emperors gathered together.

Leading the group was a man in armor who looked like a general, heroic and domineering. This man was none other than the founder of the Zhao Dynasty, named Zhao Tianxing, who was honored as Emperor Taizu after his death.

The order of rank is Taizong, Zhenzong, Yingzong, Guangzong, and Lizong.

"Is Zhao Chengqian crazy? He teamed up with that Taiyi Zhenren, destroyed mountains and temples, and even attacked our ancestors. Doesn't he know that these Yin Emperors of our Zhao Dynasty are the cornerstone of the dynasty's inheritance? If he touches us, the world will be turned upside down and the country will change hands."

The one who spoke was Emperor Yingzong. He was furious and his voice was as loud as thunder. The surrounding heaven and earth seemed to respond. In an instant, dark clouds gathered, as if a thunderstorm was coming.

"Our Shenwu Emperor is not crazy, but very courageous. Don't you see that? Master Taiyi is just a sharp knife in his hand, a knife used to kill the gods of incense and fire in the world. Today he can appoint him as the national teacher if he needs him. If he doesn't need him one day, he can just issue an imperial decree and Master Taiyi will be nothing."

Emperor Taizong was a calm middle-aged man. He said calmly, "As far as I know, the reason why this Shenwu Emperor wanted to do this is because he wanted to gather the incense of the world and practice the way of cultivation as an emperor, so as to achieve immortality and eternal dynasty."

"If an emperor could achieve immortality through practice, then we ancestors would be useless. Our existence would only consume the incense of the world, so the Emperor Shenwu needs to kill us all."

"If all the Yin emperors die, and if the destruction of mountains and temples goes smoothly, all the incense in the world will be focused on him alone. At that time, this Shenwu emperor will surpass anyone in ancient and modern times and become the truly supreme being."

When these words came out, the other Yin Emperors were shocked.

"There is such a thing?" Emperors Guangzong and Lizong obviously did not expect that this descendant of later generations would have such a big plan.

He wanted to use all the incense and offerings from the world to support one person and take an unprecedented path.

On the contrary, Emperor Taizu, Zhao Tianxing, suddenly laughed at this moment: "I have tens of thousands of descendants, but I didn't expect that there would be such an extraordinary person. A thousand years ago, when I swept the mountains and rivers and ascended the throne to become emperor, I did not dare to take action against the incense gods of the world. Even the remnants of the previous dynasty were spared. Although it was for the stability of the country, in the final analysis, I still don't have the courage to destroy mountains and temples."

"Now that the world is at peace, this mighty emperor wants to change the world and reshape the world. This is truly unprecedented. If he succeeds, the Zhao Dynasty will last for thousands of years."

"Taizu, now is not the time to praise this mighty emperor. He has joined forces with Master Taiyi and will probably attack Longcheng in a few days. By then, we may lose our lives." Yingzong said seriously.

"This world belongs to our Zhao Dynasty, not to Zhao Chengqian alone. If he wants to do such a treasonous thing, then we should make plans early and strangle this Shenwu Emperor. When the new emperor ascends the throne, everything will be back to normal."

Kill the Shenwu Emperor?

This is difficult.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

In terms of the power of incense, this Shenwu Emperor is the monarch of the current dynasty. The power of incense is no less than that of himself and others. Moreover, two Yin princes were killed by the Shenwu Emperor before. Such strength is obviously extraordinary.

If we add that Master Taiyi, there wouldn't be much chance of winning this battle.

However, they had Emperor Taizu.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Emperor Taizu Zhao Tianxing who was sitting on the main seat.

The most powerful person here is Emperor Taizu.

If he said that the Shenwu Emperor could be killed, then the emperor would definitely die tomorrow. If he had no confidence, then the people present would not be able to achieve anything.

"Let's not talk about whether we can kill Emperor Shenwu. Even if we do, what will happen? How many casualties will we have to pay?" At this moment, Emperor Taizu said calmly, "Emperor Shenwu and Master Taiyi are not ordinary people. Once the war starts, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. I wonder how many of the six Yin Emperors will be left by then?"

"Even if we win, it will be a tragic victory. What will happen to the country if Emperor Shenwu and Master Taiyi die? Who can take care of the people of this world? When the dynasty changes, we will become the remnants of the previous dynasty and will be doomed to perish."

"That's true." Several Yin Tianzi also frowned.

The battle resulted in heavy losses and the country changed hands.

If you don't fight and just sit and wait for death, you will also end up dead.

"Emperor Taizu, since neither fighting nor not fighting is possible, do we have to negotiate with Emperor Shenwu?" Yingzong asked at this moment.

Emperor Taizu Zhao Tianxing said: "Yes, I have this intention. Emperor Shenwu wants incense from all over the world, and we have been the Yin Emperor for many years and have accumulated countless incense. It is useless to ask for it. If we can give up incense and become ordinary incense gods, it may not be a way out."

"If you give up the incense, it will undoubtedly be like cutting off your own arms. I don't agree with this method of handing your life and property into the hands of others." Emperor Taizong immediately refuted.

"Yes, although we are the ancestors of Emperor Shenwu, he will not consider our blood relatives and will definitely settle accounts with us in the future." Several other Yin Tianzi also echoed.

Zhao Tianxing said calmly: "Whether to fight or make peace is not up to me. It depends on the opponent's strength. If the opponent is strong and we are no match for him, we have to make peace even if we don't want to."

"Let's go to the capital and meet this mighty emperor. If he is truly extraordinary, then we can negotiate. If he is just a show-off, then we can kill him and support the new emperor to ascend the throne. How do you think?"

After saying this, several Yin Tianzi thought for a moment, and finally nodded.

However, it can be heard from the tone of Emperor Taizu that he did not want to destroy the Zhao Dynasty because of an internal struggle.

But this is understandable.

After all, he was the one who conquered this world, and he certainly doesn't want to destroy it with his own hands.
