Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 509: The First One to Enter Chaoge Becomes the King

Of course, the Queen Mother of the West is still alive and is about to break through to become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. It is obviously impossible to snatch West Kunlun from her.

Therefore, Ao Bing's plan was to first stabilize her by forming an alliance, and then let her and Xi Kunlun integrate into Longzhou.

In this way, although West Kunlun is still hers, it can still bring considerable benefits to Ao Bing because of its integration into Longzhou.

After all, with the addition of a West Kunlun, when Longzhou evolved into a small primitive world, not only would its origin become more solid, but the evolved small primitive world would also be more complete.

These are real benefits, so it is inevitable that Ao Bing is tempted.

In addition, this is not to ask her to join the Immortal Alliance, but to form an alliance. After West Kunlun was integrated into Longzhou, Ao Bing no longer had the management rights of this place. It still belonged to the Queen Mother of the West.

If one day, the Queen Mother of the West is not satisfied, she can just leave.

However, Ao Bing was confident that the Queen Mother of the West would not leave. It was not that he intended to force her to stay, but because of the threat of Taiyi.

Why did the Queen Mother of the West form an alliance with him? It was because she was afraid of Taiyi. Therefore, as long as her strength did not surpass Taiyi, she would not dare to leave Longzhou.

How long would it take for the Queen Mother of the West to surpass Taiyi? How should I put it? In Ao Bing's opinion, this was completely impossible.

Taiyi's talent is recognized as the strongest. After the Taoist Ancestor, he is the first mortal to achieve enlightenment by killing three corpses. Although the Queen Mother of the West is extraordinary, her talent is still inferior to his.

It would be fine if he was not as talented, but Taiyi also has the Chaos Bell as a plug-in.

This treasure is not only the most powerful treasure of time and space in the prehistoric world, but also contains some of the mysteries of the creation of the world. With the Chaos Bell in hand, even if the Queen Mother of the West becomes a saint, her cultivation speed cannot catch up with Taiyi.

Therefore, Ao Bing did not think that it was possible for the Queen Mother of the West to surpass Taiyi in this life.

As for Taiyi's fall, that was even more impossible. Nowadays, as Ao Bing updated the cultivation system, it became increasingly difficult to kill the strong, especially those who had reached Taiyi's level.

It is possible to defeat him, but to kill him or even seal him is almost impossible.

With the Chaos Bell in hand, he was determined to leave. Who could stop him? Not to mention, because he could not die, he could burn his essence at any time and force his way out.

……

…………

After reaching an agreement with the Queen Mother of the West, Ao Bing did not give the origin of the King of the East to her, but kept it directly.

For a large-scale transaction like this, of course, the money must be exchanged and the goods must be delivered. Now, Nan Kunlun has not been obtained yet, and the promises made by the Queen Mother of the West are all empty. How can Ao Bing dare to give the origin of the King of the East to her?

If she directly denies her debt after getting the things, no matter how angry Ao Bing is, he will be unable to do anything to her.

After all, after obtaining the origin of the Eastern King, the Western Queen Mother could at least reach the realm of the fifth level of the Primordial Realm. Facing such a strong man, what could Ao Bing do? No matter how great the grievance was, he could only endure it temporarily.

Therefore, before obtaining South Kunlun, Ao Bing must not hand over the origin of the King of the East to the Queen Mother of the West.

The reason why Ao Bing was so cautious was that the two saints in the West had set a bad example. These two people could deny even the cause and effect of becoming a saint, and after denying it, they didn't suffer any loss.

Seeing them do this, the others were inevitably tempted to follow suit. It turned out that as long as the creditor died, there was no need to repay the debt.

How come they realized such a simple truth so late?

This is what happens when people's hearts are corrupted and morality is lost. Therefore, it is quite normal for Ao Bing to defend against the Queen Mother of the West.

He was not familiar with the Queen Mother of the West, so how could he guarantee that after obtaining the essence of the King of the East, the Queen Mother of the West would not have the intention of refusing to pay her debt and then use someone else to kill him.

When it comes to your life and property, it is never too much to be cautious.

The same goes for the Queen Mother of the West, so when she saw that Ao Bing did not immediately give the origin of the King of the East to her, although she was dissatisfied, she did not say much.

He just agreed with Ao Bing on the time to take action and then said goodbye.

"Retreat to heal your wounds and break through at the same time."

After the Queen Mother of the West left, Ao Bing no longer cared about worldly affairs. While refining the innate Three Talents Formation diagram obtained from the Three Immortals Island, he used the power of the Chaos Green Lotus to recover from his injuries.

This time, he not only had to recover from his injuries completely, but also had to make another breakthrough in his cultivation at the moment of recovery and step into the second realm of quasi-saint.

……

Ao Bing was busy healing his wounds and gradually stopped making any noise. But on the other side, in Jiuzhou, the war was still going on.

Because Emperor Xin sent his strongest force to Tongtianze to guard there, the defenses in other places were left empty and they were completely unable to resist the rebels.

Therefore, before long, all the cities belonging to the Shang Dynasty, except the capital Chaoge, were captured with the cooperation of the rebels and their accomplices.

At this point, although the Great Shang had not yet perished, its fortune had declined to the extreme, so much so that even the Nine Cauldrons had lost their luster and were no longer able to maintain the Kyushu barrier, and temporarily fell into silence.

Outside Chaoge, the four great dukes in the east, west, south and north each led an army and surrounded Chaoge on all sides.

Yes, it is different from the original history. In the original history, although there were many rebels, Beibohou, one of the four great marquises, was still loyal to Emperor Xin. He did not join the rebellion, but instead helped him to quell the rebellion with all his strength.

But because of Ao Bing's intrusion, the course of history was drastically different. Although Beibo Hou was still loyal to Emperor Xin and did not want to rebel, his subordinates disagreed.

Then, Beibohou, who was unwilling to rebel, suddenly fell ill and died overnight. After that, the new Beibohou led his army northward and joined the rebel army.

There was no way, because Ao Bing had prepared too many cards for Emperor Xin, so that he acted more and more radically. In order to centralize power, he offended all the nobles and princes under his control, making himself enemies all over the world.

Then, we had the current scene. The four great princes all rebelled, captured cities and strongholds along the way, gathered in all directions of Chaoge, and surrounded Chaoge.

Luck will not disappear, it will only shift. As the luck of the Shang Dynasty grew weaker, the luck of the four great princes who trapped Chaoge grew stronger.

Using the Qi-watching method, one can clearly see that in the sky above Chaoge, a weak black bird is flapping its wings feebly.

And around him, the scarlet phoenix, the black tiger, the winged flying bear, and the majestic white dragon were all staring at it with eager eyes, as if they could pounce on it and eat it at any time.

These four strange beasts are the anomalies of the national destiny of the four major vassal states in the east, west, south and north.

Among them, the Phoenix representing the Zhou Kingdom is the strongest, and the remaining three are about the same. Even if there are differences, they are extremely weak and can be ignored.

The four great dukes stopped in front of Chaoge City and did not rush to attack, because although Chaoge City had become an isolated city, it gathered all the masters of the Shang Dynasty. If they attacked rashly, not only would they fail to capture Chaoge, but they would also suffer heavy casualties and consume their own strength.

Therefore, the four great dukes were not in a hurry to attack the city, but gathered together at night to discuss the siege and decide the future ownership of the Nine Provinces.

There is only one position for the Lord of the World, but there are four princes who came to attack Chaoge. Of course, it will take a good discussion to decide who will be the Lord of the World.

Logically speaking, Zhou made the greatest contribution in this campaign against the Shang Dynasty, so the position of the common ruler of the world should have fallen to the ruler of Zhou.

But the other three princes each had their own little thoughts. They also made efforts to conquer the Shang Dynasty. So why was it that it was Duke Xibo who became the common ruler of the world in the end, instead of them?
"Everyone, the war is almost over now."

"For what happens next, it's time for us to set a rule, so that after conquering Chaoge, we won't have to fight again to seize the position of the common ruler of the world."

"Of course, I'm not saying this because I'm afraid of you, but I really can't continue fighting."

"The war in Kyushu has lasted too long. We can no longer continue. During this campaign against the Shang Dynasty, our strength has increased to a greater or lesser extent."

"But the overall strength of Jiuzhou is showing a downward trend. Therefore, if we continue to fight, the overall strength of Jiuzhou will continue to decline."

"At that time, facing the invasion of the four barbarians, how should we resist?"

"So, after conquering Chaoge, we really can't continue to fight. Otherwise, the barbarians will benefit from it. I'm afraid the position of the common ruler of the world will be taken back by them."

Jifa, the no longer young Marquis of Xibo, looked at the three Marquises in front of him with slightly immature faces and spoke earnestly.

The war lasted for tens of thousands of years, and most of the older generation figures at that time had passed away. Even Ji Fa was old, not to mention the princes who were older than him. Their luck had long been exhausted and they had become deified gods.

Therefore, most of the princes nowadays are young people, and old people like Ji Fa are extremely rare.

In fact, Ji Fa's body could not hold on for much longer, and he was only able to hold on with one breath. He wanted to complete the great cause of replacing the Shang Dynasty, so he could not die before the Shang Dynasty was destroyed.

It was this breath that kept him going until now. But no matter how strong this breath was, it had its limits. It was estimated that after he fulfilled his wish, he would pass away soon.

"What Xibohou said is right. After conquering Chaoge, we really can't continue the war. The country left by our ancestors must not fall into the hands of the barbarians."

"Especially the Dongyi. Our ancestors had a hard time driving them out of Kyushu and taking the power of the world from them."

"If we lose the power we have seized and they take it back, we will be ashamed to face our ancestors."

The other three great marquises nodded and agreed with what Marquis Xibo said. After destroying the Shang Dynasty, the four families must not kill each other, so as not to give the barbarians in all directions a chance to rise.

But having said that, the position of the master of the world is too tempting. If a suitable result cannot be negotiated, the war will have to be fought. It is inevitable.

"We only have one objection, which is who will be the new ruler of the world after the overthrow of the Shang Dynasty."

"There's nothing much to say about this. The four of us all have this idea and no one wants to give in. If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be any objections."

Dong Bohou said, going straight to the core of the problem, who will replace the Shang Dynasty and become the new ruler of the world.

As his voice fell, several people subconsciously looked at Ji Fa. Although they didn't want to admit it, they had to admit that among the four people, Ji Fa was the most qualified to become the common leader of the world.

It's possible to think so, but they can't just accept it. It has come to this point, and we have to fight for it no matter what. What if it succeeds?
Who says that the most qualified person will definitely become the ruler of the world?

History has fully proved that if one wants to become the ruler of the world, strength is only one aspect, luck also plays a big role.

Just what if, what if Jifa died in the siege or suddenly fell seriously ill, then that would be their chance.

"None of us four is willing to give in. If we continue to argue like this, we won't be able to reach a conclusion even if we argue till the end of time."

"So, I propose that we compete fairly, and the one who enters Chaoge first will be the king!"

Ji Fa said, glancing at the three of them.

Although Chaoge was the only city left of the Shang Dynasty, it was the toughest nut to crack and was more difficult to capture than all the previous cities combined.

Therefore, whoever defeats Chaoge first must be the one who has made the greatest contribution. It is completely reasonable to let him become the king and the common ruler of the world, and no one will refuse to accept it.

"Okay, it's settled. Whoever defeats Chaoge first will be king."

Upon hearing this, the other three knew that this was the best outcome, so they all agreed.

The defensive strength in the four directions of Chaoge City must be different, so the difficulty faced by the four people is different.

But it doesn’t matter. This direction was not chosen by them, but determined by the title.

The Duke of Dongbo attacked from the east, the Duke of Xibo attacked from the west, and the Duke of Nanbo and the Duke of Beibo attacked from the south and north respectively.

In this situation, if their side faces the strongest side, it can only be said that destiny is not on their side. The position of the common ruler of the world is not theirs. They should learn to accept their fate and not go against it.

……

"My Lord, I'm afraid that Chaoge City is difficult to attack."

In the Zhou Kingdom's camp, Jiang Ziya looked in the direction of Chaoge City and said to Ji Fa with concern.

Before they came, they had guessed that Chaoge City would be difficult to attack. But when they really arrived at Chaoge City, they were shocked to find that they were too optimistic before. With their own strength, they might not be able to take Chaoge City.

Why do you say that?
Because half of the elite of the Shang Dynasty were in Tongtianze and the other half were in Chaoge. In addition, the masters of the Shang Dynasty also gathered in Chaoge City.

No wonder it was so easy to attack the city earlier. It turned out that the Shang Dynasty knew that they could not hold the city, so in order to preserve their vitality, they withdrew their forces in advance and transferred their elite troops away, leaving only the old, weak and sick to defend the city.

In this way, they naturally felt extremely relaxed when attacking the city. They advanced with great force and easily arrived at Chaoge.

"How could this be?"

"Logically speaking, Chaoge City has gathered so many experts and elites, so it should be easy to attack, right?"

"As long as we surround them but don't attack, cut off their spiritual veins, and disperse their spiritual energy, it won't take long before Chaoge City will fall without a fight."

"This is the siege strategy that Lord Long formulated when he attacked the Yousu Kingdom. The effect has always been outstanding. Even the most solid city will have flaws under this strategy."
