Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 188 Organizing an Army to Resist Heaven

Taking into account the last wishes left by the original owner Yan Biao before his death, one was the hope that the Great Zhou Kingdom would always be peaceful and prosperous, and the other was the hope that all civil and military officials in the court would become normal.

So Xie Shen directly asked the emperor: "Father, do you know the strength of the Heavenly Court?"

"If I am willing to contribute my cultivation techniques."

"If I pass it on to you, Father, and the army under your command, then are you sure you can overthrow the Heavenly Court?"

Overthrow the heaven?

Hearing what Xie Shen said, the emperor couldn't help but be stunned.

He seemed to have never thought about, or rather, he dared not think about, how to overthrow the Heavenly Court.

He sat on the chair, thinking, and remained silent for a long time.

After about a quarter of an hour, he finally spoke: "The reason why we in the Great Zhou Kingdom have never thought of going to war with the Heaven Court is not because we are afraid of death or have no backbone, but because the people of the Heaven Court have always lived in the sky."

The emperor said with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Those immortals in heaven can fly."

"And we are all mortal."

"so."

"Even if we have the courage to wield our swords against the Immortal, we can't even see him, so how can we talk about resistance?"

This is the truth.

After hearing what the emperor said, Xie Shen nodded in agreement.

He remained silent.

The emperor continued, "Although I don't know exactly what methods and abilities those immortals in heaven have."

"But in my opinion"

"As long as the cultivation method you have can really make people have the ability to fly into the sky and hide in the ground, and have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea."

"As long as we can go to heaven."

talking.

A fierce look suddenly flashed across the emperor's eyes: "As long as we can reach the heaven, even if we sacrifice our lives, or only tear a piece of flesh from the immortals, it is worth it."

After all, the emperor didn't know that Xie Shen was an old monster who had lived for a thousand years.

So he subconsciously used the tone of an elder to educate Xie Shen: "Son, remember: when we go to war with immortals, we don't necessarily have to win them."

"We just need to make the immortals bleed, get hurt, or even become afraid of us."

"Then they won't dare to bully us anymore!"

This is true.

Xie Shen nodded again to show his agreement.

He then said, "Father, since we have chosen to challenge the Heavenly Court, then what about the matter of sacrifice?"

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, if someone has not performed a sacrifice after reaching the age of coming of age."

"Then within half a year to a year, heaven will send down disasters to punish those who refuse to offer sacrifices."

"so."

The emperor concluded: "From today, we have a total of six months to prepare."

"In the next six months, are you sure you can train a group of soldiers who can fly and hide?"

Considering that there is no supernatural power in this world.

If you want to practice cultivation, you must rely on elixirs or food supplements.

So Xie Shenchong replied to the emperor: "The most important thing for cultivation is not time, but personal talent and qualifications, as well as various resources."

"So, as long as my father can provide me with a good seedling with high enough talent, and then use the power of the whole country to help me refine pills and create various magic weapons and artifacts."

"Then within half a year, I am 80% sure that I can train an army that can fly into the sky and hide underground, and challenge the Heaven Court."

"Okay!" After getting Xie Shen's promise, the emperor was very excited and said, "Tomorrow I will have people go to the homes of the civil and military officials to select the younger generations with excellent qualifications and talents, and then bring them together for you to choose from."

"If this is not enough, I will have people search among the people until you are satisfied."

"Good!" Xie Shen added, "In addition to having excellent qualifications and talents, there is another requirement. Remember to try to choose those who are not yet over 20 years old and have not been sacrificed."

"After all, after the sacrifice, the quality of a person's body in all aspects will be greatly reduced, thus affecting the combat effectiveness of the army."

"Then"

Xie Shen continued, "You don't have to be too strict about gender. As long as the aptitude and talent are good enough, both men and women can join the army and practice."

"Okay." The emperor nodded and said, "I understand."

"So, how can we judge whether a person's aptitude and talent are high or low?"

"It's easy."

Xie Shen placed his hand in the storage bag at his waist and took out a spherical glass bottle filled with black mist.

A special glass syringe is connected to the glass bottle.

Xie Shen held the syringe and said to the emperor: "This glass bottle in my hand contains a lot of black and a lot of fairy energy."

"When it comes to testing a person's qualifications."

"Father, all you need to do is have someone insert the needle into the body of the person being tested."

"At that time, the immortal energy in the glass bottle will flow through the needle and into the body of the person being tested."

Xie Shen explained: "If the person being tested has low aptitude and talent, then after absorbing the immortal energy, various adverse reactions will occur."

"For example, abnormal pain."

"Or feel fear, helplessness, or even despair."

"These adverse reactions cannot be hidden and are easily seen."

"As for those with excellent qualifications and talents, they always act as if nothing has happened."

in the room.

After listening to Xie Shen say all this in one breath, the emperor was worried that he would not be able to remember it all.

Then he turned to the chief eunuch beside him and said, "Eunuch Wang, did you write down everything the eldest prince said just now?"

"I remember it all." Eunuch Wang Gonggong hurriedly bowed and responded: "Do you want me to repeat it?"

"Read." the emperor ordered.

As the emperor's personal eunuch, Eunuch Wang has his own unique qualities.

For example, extraordinary memory.

After receiving the emperor's order, he recited every word Xie Shen said without missing a word.

Seeing this scene, the emperor nodded with satisfaction.

Finally, he did not forget to remind Eunuch Wang: "I don't want a fourth person to know what I said to the eldest prince today. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Eunuch Wang knelt down and swore, "If this matter is known by a fourth person, then no matter if I spread it or not, I will die a miserable death!"

"Eunuch Wang, you are too serious."

Since the chief eunuch said so, the emperor said no more and just said something to comfort him.

Say it.

Then he turned to Xie Shen and said, "There are still many government affairs waiting to be dealt with in Fengtian Palace. If there are no other questions, I will leave first."

"Father." Seeing that the emperor was about to leave, Xie Shen hurriedly asked him, "Speaking of this Shanhan Residence, when can I move out?"

"Don't worry." The emperor smiled and said, "I think you should understand without me saying it."

"I locked you up just for show, for the world to see."

"You said you committed a capital crime, but who would dare to kill you without my order?"

"Moreover."

The emperor continued.

"This Shanhanju is a place where the royal family is imprisoned. The security is so strict that it is hard to even mention humans."

“It’s hard for even a fly to get in.”

"You are secretly training elite soldiers in this place, which can conceal your tracks and avoid being discovered by those who are interested."

In fact, Xie Shen doesn't really care where he lives.

It's just that he is used to the convenience brought by modern technology, and now that he has lived here for a long time, he feels a little uncomfortable.

So Xie Shenchong asked the emperor: "Give me some maids and eunuchs to take care of my daily life."

"Also, the food must be in place." "No problem." The emperor smiled and responded, then turned to the eunuch beside him and said, "Eunuch Wang, I'll leave this matter to you. Is that ok?"

"Hey!" Eunuch Wang bowed his head and replied, "I'll make a note of this and arrange for some palace maids and eunuchs to come over later."

"Ah."

The emperor said no more.

He waved his hand and signaled to the chief eunuch, "Get up and return to the palace!"

...

Always stay with me.

To fulfill the last wish left by the original owner Yan Biao, and to ensure peace and prosperity for the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Xie Shen now needs to practice hard to improve his own cultivation, and also train elite soldiers who can compete with the Heavenly Court.

He didn't want to waste time.

So not long after the emperor left, he took out several pills from his storage bag and stuffed them into his mouth, and silently began to practice the "Honghuang Swallowing the Sky" technique.

in this way.

Before I knew it, the sky outside the window had gradually darkened.

Xie Shen only heard a very light sound of footsteps coming from the corridor outside the house.

He released his spiritual consciousness to investigate the situation and found that the visitor was actually the great master wearing a black Yin-Yang Tai Chi fish robe.

The Grand Master called softly, "Grand Prince, are you in the room?"

"What's the matter?" Xie Shen responded calmly.

The Imperial Master lowered his voice and said, "When Your Highness refused to offer sacrifice today, didn't you repeatedly say that you had your own reasons?"

"So I thought, let me ask your Highness what the reason is."

"I hope I can help Your Highness solve his problems."

Considering that the national teacher can summon that strange skull.

However, the body occupied by Xie Shen now does not have any cultivation.

So out of fear in his heart, he did not invite the imperial teacher into the house.

Xie Shen said directly to the Imperial Master: "Don't beat around the bush. Just tell me directly. What is the reason for coming to see me so late at night?"

The Imperial Master pondered for a moment before speaking: "If I'm not mistaken, Your Highness must have come from outer space, right?"

? !
Hearing this, Xie Shen was shocked.

He didn't understand.

He had clearly already used his divine sense to investigate:

Perhaps it is because there is no supernatural power in this world.

Although the great national master has achieved great accomplishments, his level is only at the middle stage of Qi training.

With his strength, there is no way he could discover the secret of Xie Shen's coming from outer space.

Thinking of this, Xie Shen pretended to be stupid and asked, "What do you mean? What do you mean by coming from outside?"

"Ah."

The Imperial Master chuckled and said, "Your Highness is really interesting. You told me not to beat around the bush and to speak directly."

"And yet you yourself conceal it."

house.

Xie Shen did not respond to the Imperial Master's words. He just sat cross-legged on the bed and remained silent.

"That's okay"

Seeing Xie Shen remained silent, the Imperial Master continued, "Since Your Highness does not want to reveal his identity, I think there must be a reason that is inconvenient to speak out."

"So, I won't ask any more questions."

"I came here just to confirm with Your Highness."

"Now, I have been serving as the state teacher of the Great Zhou Kingdom for nearly twenty years according to your instructions."

"When will you take me to heaven?"

After hearing this, Xie Shen already understood something.

After all this time, the Imperial Master thought he was an "immortal" from heaven.

As to why there is such a misunderstanding.
It might be because the National Master felt Xie Shen’s powerful mental power, or divine consciousness, which was far beyond that of ordinary people.

outside the house.

Seeing that Xie Shen had not responded, the Imperial Master patiently said, "It doesn't matter if Your Highness doesn't speak."

"I only hope that Your Highness will mention my story briefly when you meet the people from Heaven."

"Then I will take my leave first?"

After saying this, the Imperial Master stood outside Xie Shen's house for a while.

Seeing that Xie Shen in the room still did not respond, he left in a huff.
...

The chief eunuch, Eunuch Wang, is very efficient in his work.

Just one day after receiving the emperor's order, he sent two eunuchs to Xie Shen's residence to take charge of sweeping and other tasks.

Another palace maid was assigned to take care of Xie Shen's daily life.

After arranging everything, he did not forget to report to Xie Shen: "Your Highness, the large bottle of immortal energy you gave to the emperor has been used up by noon today."

"So fast?" Xie Shen was a little surprised and asked, "What's the result? How many people passed the test in the end?"

Eunuch Wang said truthfully, "Your Highness, we have found nearly 1000 young men and women who are not yet of age for the ceremony of coming of age."

"In the end, more than 1000 of the 600 people passed the test."

"Currently, the Royal Guards are investigating the details of those 600 people."

"Once we have confirmed that those people are innocent, we can send them to Your Highness for training."

"Good!" Xie Shen responded.

Seeing that Xie Shen was unwilling to talk any more, Eunuch Wang tactfully said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now."

After saying this.

Eunuch Wang quickly turned around and waved to the two young eunuchs who were on the lookout not far away.

The three of them left Shanhanju in a hurry.

...

Cultivation has no time.

In a blink of an eye, Xie Shen had been in Shanhanju Prison, practicing hard for a full seven days.

period.

With the blessing of his own spiritual consciousness and the large amount of elixirs in the storage bag, Xie Shen directly raised his cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building in one breath.

Although cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage are already able to fly.

As long as Xie Shen wanted, he could fly up to the sky at any time and see the true appearance of heaven.

But considering the current strength of the Great Zhou Kingdom, it is far from enough to compete with the Heavenly Court.

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Xie Shen always kept a low profile and did not dare to fly into the sky casually.
Just like that, another three days passed.

On the tenth day, Eunuch Wang finally brought more than 500 young boys and girls who had been screened to Xie Shen.

Shanhan lives in an open space.

Eunuch Wang glanced at the more than 500 people behind him and reported to Xie Shen: "In the process of selecting practitioners, His Majesty did not forget to follow your instructions and sent people to collect a large amount of medicinal materials from all over the country, as well as various earth, wood, gold and stone."

As he spoke, Eunuch Wang suddenly clapped his hands on the spot.

next second.

Several strong young eunuchs came to Xie Shen, panting, carrying three wooden boxes that were nearly as tall as a person.

These three wooden boxes.

In one of them, there was a mountain of medicinal herbs piled up. From a distance, Xie Shen could smell the scent of Chinese medicine emanating from it.

As for the other two boxes, they contained metals, wood and stones used for refining tools.

And countless miscellaneous materials.
