Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 24 Everyone gets what they need
She jokingly called it the Sharingan, but Deng Chanyu's memory was actually quite good. As the Phoenix clone's consciousness grew stronger, the original body had a more accurate memory of things that had appeared within its sight. Even if it was just an unintentional glance, she could still clearly recall any detail of it days or even dozens of days later.

When learning the martial arts of those generals, you can remember them just by watching them once, and this time is no exception.

After a short rest of two quarters of an hour and some food, she began to sharpen the needle again as night fell.

This is a test of perseverance, wisdom, and understanding. It is the heart that is being sharpened, not just the iron rod. So if she builds a grinding machine and grinds it hard, it probably won't work.

She carefully recalled the moves demonstrated by Lishan Laomu, and then controlled her muscles to completely imitate her movements.

The details of the iron rod and stone gradually became clear in her hands.

There are two opposing energies inside the iron rod that can be transformed into each other. Whenever she thinks she has worn off a thin layer of the surface of the iron rod, a stream of energy will surge out from the other side, where the iron rod has not been worn away, to make up for the lost part. There will be energy loss in this process, but the loss is extremely small, so small that it can be ignored.

She tentatively calls these two energies Yin and Yang, but is that true? I don't know!

Identifying the stone was relatively simple. She was certain that this thing contained the five elements. The five elements were extremely balanced, mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. It could definitely be called the hardest substance in the world.

This method of copying others is acceptable. After all, the transformation of yin and yang energies involves loss, but the speed is too slow. According to her estimation, it will take ten or twenty years to grind this iron rod, which is more like a magic weapon, into a needle.

Unfortunately, the time is almost at the threshold of the Conferred God Tribulation, and she does not have ten or twenty years to temper her inner self.

If the Mother of Mount Li or Nuwa could protect her, then it would be easy to deal with.

The problem is that even a saint cannot protect his disciples in such a catastrophe.

Do you know the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Xianjiao Sect? Each one of them was cunning. Upon hearing that they too were in the midst of a catastrophe, they immediately sought out disciples to bear the calamity in their place. They offered them magic weapons, mounts, elixirs, and everything else they asked for. They were incredibly attentive, yet in the end, they still couldn't escape the Yellow River Formation's slashing of the three flowers and blocking of the five qi.

Deng Chanyu definitely won’t be able to persuade him by force now, she still needs to use some methods and techniques.

Without refining by inverting yin and yang, there would be no water and fire to temper the edge.

The technical content of the Yin-Yang reversal refining is too high, and a "legal illiterate" like her does not understand it. She also does not know how to do water refining, but she feels she can try fire refining.

She let the Qingyang True Fire cover the entire iron rod, quickly consuming the yin and yang energy inside the iron rod, and then rubbed it hard!

On the sixth day after the Nandu City was captured, the news reached the Nanbohou camp on the south bank.

No matter how much the blockade was carried out, it was useless. A large number of deserters inevitably appeared under the command of Nanbo Hou E Chongyu. Deng Jiugong also got the news and mobilized the entire army. The two sides fought from early morning to dusk, a whole day of fighting. The surface of the river was covered with floating corpses, flags and weapons, and the water in the lower reaches was dyed red. In the end, Nanbo Hou was defeated, with more than 20,000 soldiers killed and more than 100,000 soldiers captured. He vomited three liters of blood under the city of Nando, and finally retreated to Chuzhou in the southeast with more than 20,000 defeated soldiers.

Deng Jiugong's army was about to resist Nandu. Deng Chanyu, who was still sharpening a needle, thought of something and immediately came to Huang Feibiao to discuss it.

She said, "How about giving all the credit for conquering Nandu to my uncle?"

Huang Feibiao was stunned: "What do you mean, my dear niece?" Deng Chanyu chose her words carefully.

There is no cause and effect for robbing the treasure house of Marquis Nanbo, but if you become a military general of the Shang Dynasty and then commit insubordination, there will be cause and effect.

When Jiang Ziya went down the mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun had already said, "Cheng Tang's time is up, and the Zhou Dynasty will rise." Nan Ji Xian Weng also said that after you succeed, you can go back to the mountain to continue your practice.

The words were very clear, but what about Lao Jiang? He was quite opinionated and insisted on going to Chaoge to see the strength of the Shang Dynasty. This one look revealed the strength of the five-year junior doctor.

Generally speaking, a junior official in a large state is equivalent to a junior minister in a smaller one, let alone a "capital official." The position King Zhou gave Jiang Ziya wasn't high, but it certainly wasn't low. Civilized societies typically recruit people for social development at age 35. Old Jiang was already 72 at that time. King Zhou could only give him a deputy director-level position. What else did he expect?
At the final moment of destroying the Shang Dynasty, the two sides met on the battlefield, and Lao Jiang was still saying, "Your Majesty, the old minister Jiang Shang is wearing armor and cannot perform the full ceremony." He regarded himself as a minister and seemed very humble. This was because the status of monarch and minister had been determined early on, and Lao Jiang had been a minister of King Zhou all his life.

When the Shang Dynasty fell, he also suffered misfortune and never returned to Kunlun Mountain in his life.

Li Jing had a similar experience to Jiang Ziya, but Li Jing had higher emotional intelligence than Jiang Ziya. Not only did his three sons have strong backers, but he himself was also very influential in Buddhism, Taoism, and Heaven. The backlash of the Shang Dynasty's luck was a big problem, but he was not the "main culprit". He was a small and transparent person throughout the war to destroy the Shang Dynasty. Later, he took advantage of the luck of several major forces, and his sons helped him offset some of the backlash, so everything was fine.

Deng Chanyu does not have Li Jing's "face fruit". If she wants to escape unscathed from the Conferred Gods, she cannot accept the official position in the Shang Dynasty.

Since it was inconvenient to explain these reasons, she gave Huang Feibiao a look that told him to understand it himself.

Uncle Biao is really good at imagining things.

What do you want from me by giving me the credit? Oh? Oh! I see. You're worried about your future marriage, right?

He had also seen the previous fire truck. Six strong men could push it, and ten people could lift it. But such a heavy thing was lifted by Deng Chanyu alone, and she even lifted it up. How much strength does it take?
Nowadays, people no longer believe that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Women from generals' families all have some martial arts skills. For example, Huang Feihu and Huang Feibiao's sister, Concubine Huang, who married King Zhou, was quite good at boxing and kicking. She was able to pin Su Daji to the ground and beat her. Although she was pretending to be a vixen, Concubine Huang was definitely not a weak woman.

Aunt Huang, who married into the Deng family, could easily kill three or two people with a sword.

It is normal for a woman to have some martial arts skills, but not too strong. Deng Chanyu's performance is too outstanding now, and she wants to be more low-key, which is completely understandable to Huang Feibiao.

"But, Uncle Yu feels unworthy of this. You don't want any credit at all?"

"If you wish, uncle, just hand over all the captives to the Deng family."

Not to mention Deng Jiugong's side, the captives on the Nandu side were originally half and half, but now Deng Chanyu has given up all the credit and is demanding all the captives.

Huang Feibiao had no objection to this. Unless he was crazy, there was no way he would bring tens of thousands of soldiers who were hostile to the Shang Dynasty back to Chaoge. These captives were of no value to him.

Guessing that the Deng family wanted to run Nandu, he thought about it for a moment and readily agreed to the deal. You want people and land, and I want the credit. That's great.
