Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 496: Martial Arts to Protect the Nation, Immortals and Demons Surrender

Are you almost forgetting the three words "Zhentiansi"?
The name of Zhentiansi has always been synonymous with killing and military power.

Yuan Tong looked up, his face excited.

Just as Emperor Yuan Kang said, the Zhentiansi has indeed not revealed its evil reputation for a long time!

Yu Kuizhen bowed and quietly left the hall.

Zhang Yuan became the head of the Wuyusi, which is the sharpest knife in His Majesty's hand.

As long as Zhang Yuan is around, Yu Kuizhen will no longer have to worry about anything in the court.

Thinking back to when Zhang Yuan patted him on the shoulder and called him brother in front of Fengling Ferry, Yu Kuizhen felt even happier.

Sometimes, people really make choices in a split second...

……

Zhentiansi.

Su Jing has already returned to the Supervisory Office.

Ye Qingfeng also went back to continue his retreat.

Ye Qingfeng had fought a battle with a powerful warrior from outside the domain in the Eastern Territory, and his injuries have not healed yet.

Qin Wuya and Lu Tianshu accompanied Zhang Yuan on his left and right.

Zhang Yuan stopped in front of a three-meter-high green stone tablet.

The stele was covered with scars and mottled patterns, and the eight large characters "Martial Arts Guards the Country, Immortals and Demons Bow Down" exuded a faint bloody aura.

This stone tablet was written by the emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, and it is the honor of the Wuyusi of the Zhentian Division.

"Marquis Qingyang, my Wuyu Division is the head of the Zhentian Division. We have 30,000 Black Riders under our command, including 3,000 Black Armor Dragon Riders. All of our mounts are Dragon Blood War Riders raised by the Spiritual Array Beast Control Division."

"Thirty thousand Black Cavalry are stationed around the Imperial City. Tie Xing is the Dragon Cavalry Instructor, commanding three thousand Dragon Cavalry."

"In addition, my Wu Yu Si also has 300,000 Tian Gang Imperial Guards, who are guarding the Imperial City together with the Imperial Guards. I am in charge of them personally."

As Qin Wuya walked, he said, "The Tiangang Imperial Guards have cultivated the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation, which can easily trap and kill a Grandmaster."

"In addition, my Wu Yu Si also has 800 martial arts practitioners and 120,000 Yue Zhen Wu soldiers."

"Adding the 30,000 Heavenly Sword Guards commanded by Chief Qingfeng and the 20,000 black-clad warriors led by Luo Hongxiu, the Wuyu Division has over 500,000 men under its command."

After a pause, Qin Wuya whispered, "There are two Grandmasters, and over a hundred other Grandmasters."

This is the strength of the First Division of Zhentian Division.

Whether it is Qin Wuya or Ye Qingfeng, their arrogance comes from their own strength and the support behind them.

"The Zhuxian Division has the Zhuxian Sword Guards and the Zhuxian Thunder Guards. The Demon Suppression Division has the Demon Hunting Blood Guards. The top three divisions also have the Heavenly Thunder Tiger Camp..." Lu Tianshu said from the side.

Only by truly entering the Zhentian Division can one know how profound the foundation of the Twelve Divisions is.

The Giant Spirit Guards of the Broken Army Division, the Blood Spider Guards of the Secret Medicine Division, the Heavenly Secret Shadow Guards of the Heavenly Secret Division, the Thousand Illusion Guards of the Mysterious Division...

Each of the twelve departments has its own duties, responsibilities, inheritance and methods.

Listening to the two grandmasters' stories, Zhang Yuan finally understood why Heibingtai gave up the Wuwei Yamen.

Compared with the Zhentian Division with its countless powerful men, the mixed combat power of the Wuwei Yamen is really nothing.

"The Twenty-Eight Constellations Demon-Suppressing Pillar is forged entirely from 'Northern Dark Black Iron,' with the Hundred Thousand Years of Demon Slaying Directory engraved on its surface. Its base is stained with the blood of the Seventy-Two Demon Kings, and its top is inlaid with 'Meteorite Stone,' drawing upon the power of the stars to suppress evil spirits."

Walking along the mottled avenue, Qin Wuya pointed at the towering bronze pillar.

A blood-red mist filled the air around the bronze pillar, and the wailing of demons could be faintly heard.

"Under this pillar, the ancient demon emperor Mingchen was suppressed. He was the descendant of the divine beast Jiuying, with a nine-headed snake body. After eight heads were cut off, a demon-locking chain was pierced through his demon bones. He has been suppressed for ten thousand years."

"Also, beneath that pillar, is suppressed the founder of the Blood River Demon Sect. His body has transformed into a river of blood, while his soul has been divided and suppressed within the bronze pillar. Every day at midnight, the pillar will use its demon-suppressing power to dissipate his demonic energy."

Pausing for a moment, Qin Wuya said in a deep voice, "These copper pillars are inscribed with the inscription of Vajra Subduing Demons. They were carved with the golden relics of the Grandmaster when we had a good relationship with Buddhism. But now..."

He shook his head and whispered, "Fortunately, the Mountain and River Cauldron Formation is still stable. The bottom of the copper pillar is connected to the earth vein. The Mountain and River Cauldron draws the earth's energy to form the 'Mountain and River Demon-Suppressing'. When suppressing the big monster, it can transform into the phantom of the mountains and rivers of Yongtianzhou." Zhang Yuan had noticed before that the Demon-Suppressing Copper Pillar had Buddhist methods, but the power of the Buddha's essence in it was getting dimmer.

According to Qin Wuya, after the Qin Dynasty completely retreated to Yongtianzhou, its relationship with Buddhism has become difficult to maintain.

Once the Buddha energy in these copper pillars is depleted, it is extremely difficult to replenish it.

This resulted in the power of the Demon-Suppressing Copper Pillar formation being weakened significantly.

As if feeling that saying such things would somewhat undermine the reputation of Zhentiansi, Lu Tianshu coughed lightly and changed the subject.

"In addition to the Demon-Suppressing Constellation Pillar, the Kunde Demon-Suppressing Division also has a Demon-Locking Tower. The tower is nine stories high, and each floor holds a thousand transformed demons. Atop the tower hangs a catalog of all demons, which can summon the spirits of demon kings to fight."

"Two of the three-headed demon Feng Liu, who wreaked havoc on Chenzhou, were killed. The remaining one was sealed at the bottom of the tower, tempered with thunder and fire every day for 30,000 years."

In addition to the Demon Locking Tower, the Netherworld Division also has an eighteen-story prison made of Netherworld cold iron to imprison evil cultivators.

The Zhuxian Division also has a heavenly thunder pool where the rebels of the immortal way are imprisoned and bombarded by thunder every day.

"I heard that the Zhentian Division has a profound background and has collected all the immortal martial arts books in the world, which can be compared with the royal library?" Zhang Yuan's voice sounded.

Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Qin Wuya laughed out loud: "What Qingyang Hou said is true, the Zhentian Division certainly has a deep foundation."

He pointed to the place where the underground fire reflected the dome, dyeing the sky hundreds of feet away into a dark red. "That is the Meteorite Refining Workshop of the Zhentian Division. The underground fire furnace draws the fire of the earth veins and can smelt the North Sea Black Iron."

"I have some experience in refining weapons, and I usually refine them in the furnace."

"That is the Wanxiang Treasure Pavilion, which is divided into three vaults: Heaven, Earth and Man." Qin Wuya showed a hint of pride on his face.

"The Tianzi Library stores magical instruments to suppress evil spirits, among which is the treasure that protects the continent."

In Daqin, the general level of cultivation is divided into two levels: Zhenzhou and Zhenguo.

In fact, most of the weapons and treasures in the hands of practitioners are ordinary. Even if they are magic weapons, they are not worthy of being called the guardian of the continent.

There are mountains of demon pills and magic cores in the Earth Character Library, which are used by practitioners in the Zhentian Division to refine or make talismans.

The Renzi warehouse is used to store stolen goods and various valuables.

For the Zhentiansi, money and other things are only the lowest level of resources.

"Marquis Qingyang, the library you're talking about is the Zhoutian Library. It's seven stories high and contains all the cultivation techniques in the world."

"The techniques in the three lower floors of the library are read by practitioners in the Heavenly Guardian Division based on their merits."

"The middle three floors contain martial arts techniques and immortal and demonic texts. You need a warrant from the Chief to enter."

"As for the top floor, I have the rubbings of the 'Nine Heavens Prison Suppression Technique' that I practiced, as well as the immortal and demonic secret books 'Yellow Spring Soul-Guiding Curse' and 'Purple Heavenly Thunder Art'. Only the chief minister can read them."

Looking at Zhang Yuan, Qin Wuya smiled and said, "Marquis Qingyang, the complete copy of the Dragon Elephant Prison Suppression Technique that you practiced is on the top floor of the library."

"You are able to cultivate into a dragon-elephant golden body with the help of a fragmented copy. Your martial arts talent, Marquis Qingyang, is truly rare in this world."

When Zhang Yuan heard Qin Wuya say that there was a complete copy of the Dragon Elephant Prison Suppression Technique in the library, his eyes lit up.

Qin Wuya laughed heartily and raised his hand, saying, "Marquis Qingyang, go and take a look. When you are free, we will take you to inspect the Zhentian Division."

"The Heavenly Guardian is very vast, there is no need to rush."

Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded, bowed to Qin Wuya and Lu Tianshu, and then walked straight to the Zhoutian Library.

Looking at his back, Lu Tianshu's expression changed, and he said in a low voice: "Qingyang Hou has such combat power, but we know nothing about it. If you say that the Shadow Division is not involved, I don't believe it."

"Marquis Qingyang is familiar with each of us, but we don't know his true strength," Qin Wuya sighed and said softly, "Someone has planned all this a long time ago..."

Lu Tianshu was about to speak again when he suddenly stopped and looked up at the bluestone avenue in front of him.

Yu Kuizhen, wearing a black robe and holding a long sword in his hand, came quickly.

"It is a good thing that the two Grand Masters are here. His Majesty has asked me to deliver this sword to Marquis Qingyang and to convey a message."

Yu Kuizhen looked at Qin Wuya and Lu Tianshu with a smile on his face and spoke loudly.

"Your Majesty said that he almost forgot the three words 'Zhen Tian Si'."
