Shennong Sequence

Chapter 133: The Resurrection of the Gods, the Dark World

It was almost dawn, before daybreak, inside the Imperial Palace of the Divine Capital.

As soon as Emperor Mu woke up, a group of maids came in, helped him wash, change his clothes, etc., and finally put the emperor's crown on his head.

Emperor Mu walked out of the palace and glanced at the twinkling stars that could still be seen in the night sky outside. He had been getting up early like this for so many days and nights... All the affairs of the world were on his shoulders.

He habitually took out the treasure he carried with him, the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, to see if there was any important news from anyone, or from the secret guards or the military guards spread all over the world.

It will soon be time for the morning court session, and he needs to know what is happening in the world ahead of those troublesome dukes, princes, and ministers... and this cannot be a passive knowledge.

Emperor Mu, when he was flipping through the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, after reading several letters of reports from his hawks and secret guards, he found a letter sent to him by the Commander of Beiliangzhou.

This kind of thing is rare!
The Great Zhou has a long history, and has even gone through several eras of ebb and flow of spiritual energy. As a result, now, except for the newly opened foreign continents such as the Border States, there are still some ways for advancement that are less controlled by aristocratic families, military honors and nobles.

Between the various continents, various powerful families...

The royal family has the power to dominate the world, but their long rule has lasted too long and is difficult to clean up.

Therefore, in the past, whenever something happened between the continents, they would keep it secret and try to solve it on their own.

But now it was presented directly to him, so I guess some emergency situation must have occurred.

Are the Northern Barbarians beginning to attack the first city on the northwest border: Guihong City?
However, the Flying Bear Legion mobilized from the Mingshui Cave Heaven should be arriving soon.

It is time to take advantage of the current period of low spiritual energy between heaven and earth to continue expanding territory and strive to conquer the Canglan Grassland of the Northern Barbarians!
When the spiritual energy between heaven and earth rises, you can gather more powerful luck and a more powerful destiny to achieve eternal immortality!
Therefore, what happened in the border island of Beiliang suddenly aroused the interest of Emperor Mu!
I clicked on that letter and took a closer look at it.

"Interesting, even though Yanshan City has been thoroughly investigated, we can still find so many collaborating families!"

"What is so bad about our Great Zhou that it has caused you, the noble families, to betray our righteousness and turn the people against us?"

"Very good, very good! After we defeat the Northern Barbarians this time, we can turn around and clean up all the noble families in the entire Beiliang Border Continent. The land we get will be used as a reward for those who have made contributions... This is great!"

Emperor Mu pondered for a moment, and asked Zhang Mingjue, the governor of Zhangzhou in Beiliang Border Continent, to stabilize the situation in the border continent first, and then secretly investigate the evidence of collusion between the aristocratic families and other forces in various counties!
In addition, the reply to this message was that Emperor Mu deliberately released some information to Zhang Mingjue to see whether Zhang Zhouling kept his mouth shut and whether his heart was on his side.

This is an open and aboveboard assignment, mixed with a hint of temptation.

Emperor Mu then searched for all kinds of information about Zhao Yun in recent days on this treasure mirror of heaven and earth...

"Zhao Yun is not too old, so we can take the opportunity to let him serve in the border area where the war is about to start, and then see what he is capable of. If it is feasible, we can transfer him to the Divine Capital Academy to educate him. Perhaps he will achieve greater success in the future..."

During the monthly grand court meeting,
In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty of Qiyun, all officials above the level of Zhou Ling must use the projection power of the real treasure, the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, to project themselves into the Palace of the Divine Officials together to hold a national grand court meeting!
When the grand court meeting began, Emperor Mu listened to a group of princes and ministers discussing various national affairs, such as:
The Imperial Astronomical Observatory observed the stars at night and felt that the future was chaotic, so it was suggested to restart the Return to the Dragon Plan;

Marquis Xihai said that the barbarians in the west have developed rapidly in recent years, and it is necessary to send envoys to the major ancient countries to understand the situation in detail...

As mentioned above, the mountains and rivers are moving strangely and covered by white fog. It seems that the world is beginning to revive. It also seems that the spirits of the mountains, rivers and seas are gathering together, which may lead to the revival of some ancient sleeping gods...

Gu Liuzhou ordered a review. At the intersection of Gu Huai River and Ni Liu River, the shadow of time has been appearing recently. It is suspected that there is a powerful person who is disturbing the long river of time...

As mentioned above, Longtanzhou ordered that there were strange movements in Zhulong Cave Heaven, the sun and the moon shone at the same time, day and night were reversed, and the four seasons began to become disordered. Some people from the farming family, Taoists, and Yin-Yang School had entered to investigate.
As mentioned above, Tianliu Bingzhou is expected to arrive above Beiliang Bianzhou in the middle of the night due to the influence of the northern gale...

The Five Abysses Legion, namely, the Sea Abyss, the Sky Abyss, the Earth Abyss, the Dark Abyss, and the World Abyss, all mentioned above. In five different abysses in the world, they had observed a blue-purple light flashing in the depths of time and space, and it was impossible to track it.
In addition, in the corner of the hall, rows of painted and ferocious sculptures that had not moved for years suddenly came alive...

On the other side of the Great Zhou Dynasty of Fortune and Destiny, people from the underworld also came together to participate in the court meeting in the world of the living.

The people from the underworld brought with them the turbid tides from the underworld under various dynasties in the world, which could no longer be suppressed and began to counterattack in various places in the world of the living!

The counterattack of the turbid tide will also cause the breeding of evil spirits and demons, and will affect the law of the rise and fall of the world's spiritual tide, slowing down the rise of the spiritual tide in the Yang world...

In the past, many things that were extremely rare to see happened one after another, but they all happened at this grand court meeting held once a month.

Emperor Mu thought about some things. He asked his ministers to discuss some of them, and also decided on some of them himself. However, there were still many complicated matters, so he decided to postpone them...

After all the matters were dealt with, the noisy court meeting gradually calmed down.

Then, at the signal of Emperor Mu, the projection of Zhang Mingjue, the governor of Beiliang Border Island, who was standing in the corner, suddenly revealed the attack that took place last night in Yanshan County around Yanmen Pass, an important pass in Beiliang Border Island.

But someone immediately refuted:
"This small town on the border of Beiliang is already so corrupt. It shows how incompetent you, as the governor of the continent, are in your daily work! Your Majesty, I think that Zhang Mingjue should be dismissed immediately and investigated, and then an angel should be sent to monitor this matter..."

Emperor Mu thought for a while and said:

"Since Zhang Zhouling is incompetent, how could he have trained a capable person? He first uncovered the barbarians' decades-long plan, then found out the many usurpers in Yanshan County, and finally reported the matter... How can a person who gets things done like this be said to be incompetent?"

"How about this, Censor Wang, since you hate evil and have made great contributions over the years... I think it would be better to send you to be the angel and investigate the many usurpers in the border island of Beiliang?"

"If you do well, when you come back, the burden of your position as censor will not be enough, so you can add more..."

There is no one who doesn't want to be promoted to a higher position.

But the problem is, Censor Wang was a little confused. He just popped in to say a few words on a daily basis, but how come he described himself as an angel and was going to investigate a case?
Moreover, the court was terribly silent at this moment!
Even he himself had a vague feeling that this trip would definitely not go smoothly...

The sun is at its zenith over Yanshan County.

Zhao Yun followed Commander Wang and had them search the house all night, and divided up the good stuff all night. Now he arranged some details, yawned and walked out of the county government office, then rode a horse with Master Sun and returned to the guard post...

As for today's etiquette lesson?
After Zhao Yun had stayed up all night, he could indeed continue to stay up late, but the etiquette course was really boring, so it was better not to go. Moreover, if he really made any etiquette mistakes when meeting King You, the final punishment would only be the two maids who taught him etiquette for not teaching him carefully...

So as soon as he returned to the garrison, Zhao Yun went back to his home, closed the door again, put the various treasures he had obtained last night back on the table, and carefully examined them:
Half a magic weapon, the white bone tree, the cloud and smoke tea tree, the star dew flower, the earth spirit tree, the spring breeze grass, the golden tree spirit seeds, the Yuan fruit, the spring peach, a bottle of soul liquid, a handful of Danxia soil, the vitality dragon tendon grass, the jade bone bamboo, the big sun heart pill, the wood source Baigan pill, the water dragon kidney essence pill, the five internal organs harmonizing pill, various spells, and an entry-level practice of the old Taoist method!
And finally, when he cleared out the third largest Water and Fire Sword Hall in the local area, Zhao Yun also obtained a real magic weapon: the Water Sword!

However, according to rumors, the Water and Fire Sword Hall has two magical weapons, one for water and one for fire.

When the Fire and Water Sword Hall was searched, only the Water Sword that Zhao Yun had obtained was found, which meant that the Fiery Sword was missing, or the person holding the sword had escaped...

"The Water-containing Sword is a magical weapon and a flying sword. After being injected with spiritual power, it can move freely within the range covered by the spiritual power. It is a good thing... Now it belongs to me."

In addition, there were some special treasures among the confiscated materials.

However, because the side effects were quite serious, Zhao Yun did not choose those, but took advantage of what he lacked to restrain himself.

Therefore, Zhao Yun also collected some one-time exploding thunder beads!

The goal is to fill up the firepower at once!

After checking everything, Zhao Yun began to use his magic power to gradually refine the restrictions in the water-containing sword.

But when his magic power just entered into the sword body, he found that the water sword was impatiently sucking his magic power, and the restrictions in the sword body, which seemed flawless, were actually very tattered.

"That's not right. How come the restriction in this water-containing sword is a little broken? Those warriors were too careless when they used it..."

Zhao Yun didn't understand the mystery. There was a huge difference between the blood of a warrior and his magic power.

And in the early stages of manufacturing magical instruments, the energy to be used will be selected in a targeted manner.

Therefore, the Water Sword was damaged after being used for a long time by the incompatible blood of the warriors...

Zhao Yun woke up in the afternoon and did not go to learn etiquette or anything like that day.

"It's still early. Why don't we plant all the blood crystal wheat first? We can continue to digest some of the power of the Tao..."

Zhao Yun then went back to the horse stable and discussed things with Master Sun, then he went to look for the Horse King and many other Wind-Chasing Horses and borrowed some of their blood.

Finally, I have gathered a small basin of spiritual blood.

Then soak all the remaining blood crystal wheat spirit seeds in it to awaken the spiritual power in it.

Zhao Yun left the guard post, walked along the Changshan Mountain, came to the blood field, and started planting.

Wait until I have fully planted the half acre of blood field.

Zhao Yun received great feedback again!
The power of Taoism in the Dantian was digested a lot during the farming process, which caused the magic power in the Dantian to rapidly increase by thirty!
Zhao Yun's total mana is now [Mana: 125]

The amount of mana you possess is directly linked to the power of the spell you cast!

For a spell, under the condition of equal comprehension, the more mana consumed, the greater the power will be!
This magic power is equivalent to the most core energy part of the new magic cultivation system.

At this moment, every increase in magic power is a process of advancing one's own strength!

Moreover, after the magic power grows, it will also baptize the physical body, making the physical body gradually stronger, the meridians wider, and the dantian larger. At the same time, it will also nourish the soul and expand the scope of the sea of ​​consciousness.

Only after you have mastered the magic power to achieve the unity of essence, energy and spirit, can you fully appreciate the benefits of the magic power!

Zhao Yun stayed at the blood field for a while, feeling the beauty of the Dantian growing rapidly and remaining in his body...

"All the things that happened before, plus the planting of blood crystal wheat this time, have allowed me to digest a total of 1.25/10 of the power of the Taoism, and now it's less than a month away from my entry into the rank!"

"I am indeed a genius!"

Zhao Yun walked down the mountain along the stream in a cheerful mood, and then followed the path between the fields to check the one-acre field he had created, which had incomplete runes on the ground.

I saw that the wheat seedlings had grown to the height of my calves, and some had even sprouted spikes, showing signs of blooming and bearing fruit... This was completely different from the surrounding wheat seedlings that had only grown a little light green and were less than half a finger high.

It has to be said that if a monk who has mastered farming skills really comes to farm, he will definitely have more advantages than ordinary people.

Then, Zhao Yun continued to move forward and soon found a valley with a bustling crowd of people.

That was the place he had chosen earlier to raise pigs.

In the valley, people were coming and going, making it very lively.

Of course, there were also some sharp-eyed people who saw Zhao Yun coming from afar, and they hurriedly ran into the valley and reported to Wang Daniu: "Captain, Zhao Tianling is here, and he is almost outside the valley. Go and take a look!"

"Zhao Tianling is here? Then let's go and take a look."

Wang Daniu hurriedly folded up the pig farm architectural plan, stuffed it into his clothes, and hurried out of the valley.

When Zhao Yun arrived at the valley, he glanced at the various pig pens that were being built in the valley, which were now beginning to take shape.
