Eternal Sword

Chapter 507 On the verge of breaking out

The man asked casually, "If I enter the capital, who will sit on the throne? Have you discussed it?"

The old man shook his head and said nothing.

I don’t know whether they didn’t discuss it or they just didn’t want to say it.

The man's eyes flickered, and he said, "In my opinion, you, the old shopkeeper, are the best choice. After all, Thunder God and Wind Master are from Xuantian Sect. They are only suitable for preaching, not for being the ruler of a country."

"The old shopkeeper has great prestige in the martial arts world. If the leader of the martial arts world is given a dragon robe, he can change the world and establish a new dynasty."

"I am not interested."

The old man spoke calmly.

The man sneered in his heart.

As the ruler of a country, dominating the world, he didn't believe that there would be anyone in this world who would not be tempted by that position!

If they were really not interested, why would they join forces with the Xuantian Sect and make such a large-scale plan?

The old man's eyes were deep, as if he could see what the man was thinking, and he said, "In fact, with your family background and experience, you are the most suitable candidate. After all, I am a man of the underworld, I am old, and I am not in the court, so I don't know anything about politics."

The man said calmly: "Old shopkeeper, you are joking. I am young, and I have no qualifications in front of you seniors."

Although they are both high priests, the old man in front of him can join forces with Thunder God, Wind Master, and even the powerful Return to Void Realm expert in the palace. His plan is so big that he wants to completely subvert Nanxia.

But he didn't know the details, and no one told him, so how could he not have any resentment in his heart?

If he had not noticed some clues through many pieces of information and had not taken the initiative to come and inquire, he would probably have realized it only after the southern part of the country was turned upside down.

The old man seemed to sense the resentment in the man's heart and said, "This matter has been done in secrecy. I hope the prince will forgive me."

"Ha ha!"

The man laughed loudly and said, "Old shopkeeper, your words are too kind. I am a junior, and this is a good opportunity for me to see the methods of the seniors."

"You are too modest, my Lord. At your age, you have already become a master. Your future achievements are limitless."

The old man paused, looked at the man, and said meaningfully: "What's more, the prince has a master behind him to help him."

A gleam of light flashed in the man's eyes, then quickly disappeared, and he did not respond.

The old man's words just now were actually a test to see how the man would react.

The man is now forty years old, and he has already cultivated to the Shenzhao realm and achieved the status of a master.

In the past hundred years, the only person who achieved such an achievement at such a young age was Emperor Wu.

It is true that the man has a strong family background and is gifted with extraordinary talents, but it would be difficult for him to reach this point without the guidance of an expert.

It seems that the fact that he was able to become the Grand Priest of Xuantian Sect was also instructed by the master behind him.
-
Bibo Island.

Located between Wuzhou in Nanxia and the three islands in the East China Sea.

On a reef near the island, a middle-aged man sat there, wearing a wide Taoist robe, his silver hair fluttering in the wind, and an extremely terrifying power fluctuation emanating from his body.

These long hairs are not gray due to age, but silver-white, like silver snakes in the night sky, with arcs of electricity flashing faintly at the ends of the hairs!
"uncle."

Not far away, a man in a plain robe came riding a sword. It was the Immortal Lord, Sun Lingxiu.

Sun Lingxiu landed behind the silver-haired man, bowed and greeted him, and couldn't help but admire: "Uncle's lightning power is becoming more and more condensed. With time, he will be able to break through to the Return to Void Realm."

The silver-haired man shook his head slightly and said, "To refine the spirit and return to emptiness, you must refine all the Yin residue in your Nascent Soul before you can become a pure Yang spirit and reach the state of returning to emptiness."

This person is none other than Sun Jing, the 'Father of Thunder' of the Southern Xia Xuantian Sect!
Sun Jing opened his eyes, and a silver-white electric light appeared, emitting a heart-pounding aura. He slowly said, "It is so difficult to break through to this realm. I have practiced hard for decades, but I have never been able to comprehend it."

Sun Lingxiu said: "I heard from my uncle that among the several heavenly books, the cultivation method in our "Book of Thunder" is the most difficult." "That's right."

Sun Jing nodded and said, "Fortunately, once the master of our lineage awakens the spiritual root of thunder attribute and masters the power of thunder and lightning, his combat power will be better than that of the others."

After a brief pause, Sun Jing said, "I asked you to come here to tell you about the next arrangements."

"The martial arts conference will be held in Jingzhou as usual, but when we take action depends on the situation in the capital."

Sun Jing said, "Recently, we have heard that Yang Kan of Jiangzhou has assembled a large army, and the troops, horses, and food supplies have all set off, heading for the capital. Wang Xiaobo has also reported Shen Guobao's crimes, and the capital has been placed under martial law, and a war is imminent."

"When the time comes, your Master Du and I will lead thousands of Xuan Masters to the capital and wait for the opportunity to act."

"You and Lu Xun will each lead the Xuantian Army, starting from the coastal area. The hundreds of thousands of Xuantian Army are enough to annihilate the major counties in Wu and Jiang states."

Hearing this, Sun Lingxiu couldn't help but said, "Uncle, Wu and Jiang states are empty, and the troops are stationed in the capital. It would be enough to be led by a few chief priests. I want to go to the capital to help uncle."

Once the war starts, Nanxia will be completely changed!

The main battlefield is obviously in the capital.

The masters of all the major martial arts sects in Wu and Jiang states were all far away in Jingzhou to attend the martial arts conference, and the armies of the two states were near the capital.

With the strength of hundreds of thousands of Xuantian troops, combined with some chief priests, it is completely like crushing dry weeds and rotten wood, which is really meaningless.

After all, he and Lu Xun are also Yuanying Zhenjun, and they want to go to the capital to join in the fun.

"No."

Sun Jing shook his head and said, "You and Lu Xun act according to this plan. Keep an eye on the developments in the capital. If anything unexpected happens, leave in time."

Sun Lingxiu was stunned and asked, "Uncle, is there any change in this game?"

"Hard to say."

Sun Jing pondered and said, "It should have been foolproof, but the Sword Sect suddenly showed up and captured you alive, which made me a little worried."

Sun Lingxiu smiled and said, "The Sword Sect is human after all, and they have close relatives. They let me go last time, and it's obvious that they are wary of our Xuantian Sect."

"maybe."

Sun Jing couldn't figure out Jian Zong's thoughts.

It is also possible that this person values ​​his status and does not want to embarrass the younger generation.

Sun Jing said: "To be safe, you and Lu Xun should not come to Kyoto."

Seeing that his uncle had made up his mind, Sun Lingxiu naturally couldn't refuse, so he said, "Uncle, are you only taking Master Xuan to Kyoto, without bringing some Xuantian soldiers?"

"No need."

Sun Jing said: "The Xuantian Army is composed of warriors, so they are not easy to move and make too much noise."

"Your uncle Du and I will lead thousands of mystics to the capital, which is enough to defeat thousands of troops! When the Northern Expedition Army and the Imperial Guards of the capital are in a bloody battle and both sides are injured, we will show up and cooperate with Queen Yin to easily settle the war."

Seeing that Sun Lingxiu was silent, Sun Jing stood up and walked to his side, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I have also invited two Yuanying Zhenjun from Donglaizhou to come here this time. Let's meet here and go to the capital together."

"One of them is the island master of Donglaizhou, Linglan Zhenjun, who is also your master's aunt. You can meet her when the time comes."

"Ah."

Sun Lingxiu nodded.
