The Emperor is Above

Chapter 401 Trip to Yunling
"I dare not guess the true strength of the Black Wind God!"

Old Man Shi shook his head solemnly, "Its clone alone can fight me to a draw. Perhaps its true form is truly a powerful being that transcends the Saint Realm.

It is definitely not comparable to evil gods like the Cat Ghost God and the Five-Power God. Fortunately, it cannot descend upon the human world now, otherwise it would surely be a horrific disaster."

“No wonder Cat Ghost God and Wutong God, as evil gods, are so respectful to the High Priest of the Black Wind Tribe, and obey the orders of the Black Wind God! I just hope we have more time to prepare!”

Qing Yi looked suddenly enlightened, but in his heart he was wondering whether Mr. Wu Liu, Mu Ling and other former subordinates of the Wood God Ju Mang could defeat the Black Wind God.

Seeing Qing Yi keeping his head down and not saying anything, Old Man Shi thought that Qing Yi was worried about the Black Wind God's power, so he said softly with encouragement:

"Boy Yi, I won't hide something from you. For hundreds of years since the establishment of the Great Shen Dynasty, the spiritual energy has been declining, and it is rare for strong people in the world to break through the shackles of the first level.

However, when I was promoted to the Saint Realm on the day of the Winter Festival before the New Year, I clearly felt that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had increased. Even if there was only a slight increase, it would lead to the promotion of more first-grade grandmasters.

Your talent for cultivation is rare in the world. At the age of sixteen, you have the strength that is not inferior to that of a second-grade judge. Your future achievements are immeasurable.

I hope you won’t become complacent about this, and put more effort into your cultivation. Perhaps within twenty years you will be able to surpass my current state!”

sweat!
Qing Yi felt a little embarrassed.

I didn't expect that I would be taught a lesson by Old Man Shi after I had just warned Gongsun Wu, Daniu and others not to be proud of their respective strengths.

He laughed and said, "Old Man Shi, don't worry, you see, the four dragon claw locust tree spirits under my command have also been promoted to the first rank, and the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture has also been promoted to the second rank.

Even Hua Ni and Xiao Bai have advanced to the fourth and fifth ranks respectively, so I must not fall too far behind, or else people will laugh at me for being worse than a cat, right? "

"Well, good, good, it's good that you have this awareness!"

Old Man Shi glanced at the entire camp with satisfaction, then chuckled and said, "Since you have so many talented people under your command, let them take care of the camp for the time being, and let's go to Longcheng to bury the earth as soon as possible.

The sooner you can recover the Dragon City, the sooner you can practice with all your heart. I wonder if the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit still remember me as their old friend after not seeing each other for several years. "

······
"cry--"

"Wow—"

The loud cries broke through the sky.

The pure white wings of the first-class snowy owl shone brightly in the sun, and the fiery red wings of the four great wild dragon eagles blocked out the sun. They followed closely behind and soared into the sky, flying towards the north at an extremely fast speed.

Qing Yi specially changed into a tight military uniform, sat steadily on the back of the Great Wilderness Dragon Eagle, and followed closely behind the old man Shi who was riding a snowy owl.

It has to be said that this snowy owl makes no noise when flying. In comparison, the howling sound produced by the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture when flying is too eye-catching.

With the lesson learned from the last time, Qing Yi ordered the Dragon Eagle to control the flight altitude to below 500 feet, thus avoiding the cold gale in the sky while being able to observe the vast northern border very clearly.

The wide river below was clearly visible. The Hutiao River flowing through Yangwu City was not a small river. Even though the river was covered with thick ice and snow, it was at least four or five hundred feet wide. It could accommodate large ships during the flood season in summer and autumn. As the dragon eagle below moved forward rapidly, large rocks would occasionally stand on both sides of the riverbed, and the river gradually became narrower and narrower.

When we flew four hundred miles north of Yangwu City, we could no longer see Tingli Village, which belonged to the Xing State, and the Hutiao River became only about three hundred feet wide.

Looking up at the undulating terrain in the distance, large areas of forest mixed with pine and cypress trees come into view. Obviously, this is the outer hilly area of ​​Yunling.

"Look, Yi boy, the area from this forest onwards belongs to the Yunling territory. It is also the default boundary we reached with Shi Ling when we recovered the northern border a hundred years ago."

Old Man Shi's voice came from the back of the Snow Owl, and he introduced it in detail, "Yunling was also called Longshan in the previous dynasty, which is also the origin of the name Longcheng.

The entire mountain range extends in the northeast and southwest directions, with a length of tens of thousands of miles at both ends. The widest part is more than three thousand miles, and the narrowest part is also one thousand miles, separating the Xianyu tribe from our Xing State and Dai State. "

"Old Man Shi, I do know that the western end of Yunling is the Border Town Fortress, located where the original mountain forest and Yunling meet. I wonder how the Dai Kingdom can stop the Xianyu tribe?"

Hearing Qing Yi's question, Old Man Shi said with envy and helplessness: "Daiguo was born with a good fate, where the eastern end of Yunling meets Xianyu tribe.

Not only is the terrain dangerous, there is also a group of lakes and ponds, and there are countless hot springs in the surrounding mountains, which will not freeze in winter.

The State of Dai only needed to build a fortress at a strategic location and station thousands of elite soldiers there. It would not only be able to easily resist the attack of Xian Yu's army, but also be able to use the advantage of boats to bypass and launch a surprise attack on the attacking army from behind.

The Xianyu tribe is good at riding but not at sailing. They lost many lives in front of the dangerous fortress of Dai State and had to give up. They are just trying to get the upper hand here."

Qing Yi nodded gently and said, "No wonder the border defense line is always facing a formidable enemy, and no wonder Tian Bin, the defender of Yangwu City, is worried that the Xianyu tribe will cross the Yunling Mountains and attack the northern border from the south of Longcheng."

Old Man Shi gently stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: "That's right, Longcheng is strategically located near the watershed in the middle and west of Yunling. You will understand why it is important when you see it with your own eyes."

As the two talked, the first-class snow owl and the four dragon vultures flew rapidly, and the mountains became higher and higher. The towering snow-capped mountains gradually became clear from blurry.

The mountain is extremely steep and covered with thick glaciers and snow. The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, which is why Yunling got its name.

"Eh? There's something wrong with Old Man Shi. Why do I feel like someone is watching us? Could it be that the Stone Spirit and the Blue Flower Tree Spirit knew we were coming and arranged scouts in advance?"

Qing Yi was alert and looked around, but he did not find any scouts from the wilderness. Instead, in the snow-covered forest, there were large groups of fist-sized fiery red birds, happily foraging and playing.

"Haha, there are indeed scouts under Shi Ling and Qing Hua, but they are not deliberately arranging them now. These inconspicuous little guys have been serving as Yunling scouts for hundreds of years."

Old Man Shi pointed at the flock of birds in the forest below and laughed loudly, "Look, kid Yi, don't underestimate them. Although they are only fifth-grade fierce birds, their flying speed is not inferior to that of the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture."

"what the hell!"

Qing Yi was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief as he asked, "Old Man Shi, the scouts in Yunling are just a group of red sparrows?"
