Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 165: Six Swords Gathered to Swallow the King of Nanping
An hour later.

Zhou Ming opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly.

Still, none of the Three Xuan Yang Swords were willing to accept him.

But he was not completely without gain.

A sword energy emerged from the fingertips, emitting a sinister aura.

This is the Twelve Xuanyin Swords.

After spending most of the time and finding that the Three Xuan Yang Swords remained unmoved, Zhou Ming decisively gave up and used the remaining time to comprehend the Twelve Xuan Yin Swords.

The result was that everything was understood smoothly.

Now he has mastered all twelve swords.

He discovered that among all the twelve swords, not only the swords in his memory could correspond to the seven swords, but the remaining sword intents could also be fully used.

The fifth Xuanyin sword, 'All Living Things Will Be Destroyed by Me', is a very powerful group attack sword technique that can emit countless sword energies and can be used as a Yuhua sword technique.

The ninth Xuanyin sword, 'Shahan Ying Qianqiu', is an extremely cold sword technique that perfectly matches the Bingpo Sword.

The Eleven Xuanyin Swords, 'Sword Demon Born from the Heart', is an illusion sword technique that can arouse people's inner demons and can be used as a Purple Cloud Sword Technique.

In this way, six of the seven sword techniques are now complete.

Of course, it was impossible for Zhou Ming to take out the original copy of the Twelve Xuanyin Swords and give it to the successor of the Six Swords for use.

After all, the Twelve Xuanyin Swords are magic swords formed by countless evil thoughts. Practitioners will inevitably be tempted by the evil thoughts in their hearts and thus be controlled by the sword technique and become possessed by the devil.

Even though Zhou Ming has mastered the Twelve Xuanyin Swords and nothing happens to him now, it is because he has just comprehended them and the sword technique has little effect on him.

Moreover, he himself possesses extremely powerful spiritual power and has practiced the complete version of the Art of Immortality, which allows him to easily suppress the Twelve Swords of Xuanyin, preventing the evil intent within them from showing up at all.

If his own strength declines, or if he studies these twelve sword techniques more deeply in the future, then the Twelve Xuanyin Swords will naturally reveal their demonic nature.

If Zhou Ming is like this, what about others?

Therefore, Zhou Ming planned to use a trace of the sword intent of each of the Twelve Xuanyin Swords as a guide, and combine it with the endless sword technique inheritance in the sword world to create the Seven Swords Sword Technique.

In this way, the demonic intent in the sword technique will be infinitely weakened.

As for the remaining Changhong sword technique... Zhou Ming was not planning to use the Twelve Xuanyin Swords.

No matter how the Twelve Xuanyin Swords are weakened, their essence is still Yin.

Among the seven celestial phenomena represented by the seven swords, whether it is snow, clouds, thunder, lightning, rain, or wind, they will all bring about a drop in temperature, but only on a sunny day represented by the Changhong Sword will the temperature rise directly.

If Zhou Ming had not found the Three Xuan Yang Swords in the sword pool, he would probably have found one from the Twelve Xuan Yin Swords to make do.

But since there are the Three Xuanyang Swords, why should we abandon the Yang that best matches the Changhong Sword and look for it among the Yin?

The only problem is...

"The Three Xuanyang Swords are completely ignoring me!"

Zhou Ming frowned.

But facing the three sword intentions, he really had no other choice.

I can only grind it slowly later.

Faith will move mountains to open.

Anyway, I have the sword world in my hands. If I keep grinding day by day, I believe that sooner or later, I will be able to get the three Xuanyang swords!

Even if it has a spirit, in the final analysis, it is just sword intent and sword technique.

Even if you don't agree, I can still learn.

At most, it's just a waste of time, and you can't learn and master it immediately.

I have plenty of time!

Zhou Ming stood up and prepared to leave the portable space.

Seeing this, Jian Yue's face was full of vigilance, as if he was guarding against him playing any dirty tricks.

It seems that he hasn't woken up yet.

But the Demon Lord's expression changed, and he seemed to want to say something but stopped.

He naturally wanted to escape, but he also knew it wasn't that easy.

At the same time, he also understood that the other party only trapped him and did not kill him directly. He must have other purposes, perhaps just waiting for him to speak.

If he begged for mercy now, he would be degrading himself.

As for the problem of his strength being continuously weakened… He can only hold on for a long time with his own strength.

Since he can hold on, Zhou Ming won't care even more.

He opened the portal and walked out of the portable space.

The sun's light shines in all directions.

It was already noon, but Pei Ju had not returned from court yet.

Come to think of it, there must be a lot to do at today's morning court session.

Zhou Ming didn't pay attention to what was happening there because he had more important things to do now.

The Whale Gang.

Mu Dao Ren, Vodka, Mai Zihao, Gongsun Da Niang, Yin Susu and others gathered together.

Suddenly, the Tianji card on Mu Daoren's waist vibrated.

He picked it up, took a look, and then said with a smile, "It's time to get started!"

Mai Zihao immediately stood up and shouted, "Pass my order, Giant Whale Gang... move!"

After this period of development, the Giant Whale Gang, which had already become a behemoth, immediately took action at this command.

Horses march southward, and masters gather.

To tear off endless benefits from another giant.

Taoist Mu chuckled and said, "Once this matter is resolved, the Giant Whale Gang will surely become the most powerful overlord in the South! Even the Sky Eagle Cult and the Ming Cult will have to retreat!"

When everyone heard this, they all looked excited.

Only Zhang Cuishan, under the vodka mask, had a different kind of light in his eyes.

On the other side, Yin Susu couldn't help but clench her fists.

After the meeting.

Yin Susu came to Madam Gongsun's room and asked, "If the Giant Whale Gang continues to develop, will it cause a conflict with the Sky Eagle Cult?"

"Is there any need to ask?" Gongsun Da Niang asked with a smile.

Yin Susu asked hurriedly, "Is there any way to stop it?"

Madam Gongsun sneered, “Who can stop what these two great masters, Gin and Gin, have decided?”

Yin Susu was speechless.

Yes, they are two great masters!
"But...it's not completely impossible..."

"What method?" Yin Susu asked hurriedly.

Madam Gongsun said, "If the Sky Eagle Cult is willing to join the organization and become a part of it, then Taoist Mu will naturally have no reason to attack his fellow members of the organization."

Yin Susu couldn't help but frown: "Could this be the reason why the organization wants to recruit me?"

"You can think so."

Madam Gongsun said coldly, "Whether the Sky Eagle Cult's territory was taken by the Giant Whale Gang or surrendered voluntarily, it makes no difference to the organization!"

A feeling of sadness rose in Yin Susu's heart.

The Sky Eagle Cult is quite powerful. Her father, Yin Tianzheng, the leader of the Sky Eagle Cult, has the power of three flowers gathering at the top of the head.

The Sky Eagle Sect has three inner halls and five outer altars. Two of the masters in the inner three halls are masters, and there is also a master in the outer five altars, making all four of them perfect innate abilities.

There are also several master-level priests who do not hold any positions in the sect, but are directly under Yin Tianzheng.

This strength has even surpassed the now declining Ming Cult, and can be called the overlord of the south.

But when facing the organization, it is still too weak.

Not to mention the organization's mysterious and seemingly endless support, just the Wood Taoist and Giant Whale Gang under the organization's command are already far more powerful than the Sky Eagle Cult. If the two sides go to war, the Sky Eagle Cult will undoubtedly lose.

Seeing her uncertain expression, Madam Gongsun said with a smile, "Silly girl, what's wrong with submitting to the organization? Look at that Taoist Mu. As long as he completes the organization's tasks, the organization doesn't care about anything else.

Besides, there's also the Huangliang Pill... Yin Tianzheng also has the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head, but due to his old age he's unable to break through to the Grandmaster level. Don't you think his situation is exactly the same as Mu Dao Ren's?

If he is willing to surrender, I think the organization will not be stingy with that Huangliang Pill!"

"This……"

Yin Susu was very hesitant.

She naturally knew her father's temper.

Although he had separated from the Ming Cult and founded his own sect, Yin Tianzheng still considered himself a member of the Ming Cult in his heart.

Wanting him to join other forces is equivalent to asking him to betray the Ming Cult...

Even if there is a possibility of becoming a grandmaster, given Yin Tianzheng's temper, he probably wouldn't agree.

Seeing this, Madam Gongsun said nothing more. "After the Giant Whale Gang has taken over the Nanping King's forces, they will probably need some time to process this. It's best if you can persuade the Sky Eagle Cult to surrender before then."

the same day.

It's not just the Giant Whale Gang, the Fuwei Escort Agency under the Giant Whale Gang, and other forces that have surrendered in the past few months.

The Jewelry Pavilion under Sun Shou.

In addition to the Giant Whale Gang, the two other forces supported by Mu Dao Ren also acted almost at the same time.

It was like a ferocious tiger, leading countless hungry wolves, biting towards the Nanping Palace, which was like a dragon.

Countless forces in the south were shocked.

Prince of Nanping is a prince actually appointed by the imperial court!

With military power in hand!
How dare a few underworld forces attack the Nanping Palace?
I'm afraid there's no need for the Nanping Palace to take action personally. The forces under the Nanping Prince's command, and the countless interest chains that have been entangled over the years, can easily crush them, right?
But the result was very unexpected.

Facing the offensive from these forces, the Nanping Palace did not respond at all, allowing its own industries and power to be devoured by the ferocious tigers and wolves.

The other forces that had connections with the Nanping Palace all just sat on the sidelines and did not offer any help.

On the contrary, some forces that were hostile to the Nanping Palace in the past actually began to take action soon after.

However, they did not act as quickly as the Giant Whale Gang, and they did not make any advance preparations. Naturally, they could not compete with the Giant Whale Gang if they acted hastily now.

The Giant Whale Gang did not swallow up all of it. Firstly, they were short of manpower, and secondly, they really needed to leave some loopholes for other forces to fight for.

If other forces fail to gain any benefits and have no manpower left, they will probably come and compete directly with the Giant Whale Gang.

It would be better to give it to them, so that they will not have enough manpower to spare and will lose strength in the struggle among each other.

It was not until dusk that the news in the capital spread to all small and medium-sized forces via carrier pigeons.

When these small and medium-sized forces enter the market, the competition among them becomes more intense.

night.

Inside the Nanping Palace.

"Have you finished cleaning up?"

Prince Nanping asked in a low voice. He was not too old, not even fifty, in the prime of his life, but now he looked old and his hair was full of white hair.

This is naturally because he has already known the results of this plan through his own channels.

A failure without a doubt!
Judging from some details conveyed by carrier pigeons, his plan was discovered from the very beginning, and the emperor even took advantage of the situation to lure him out.

Plotting to usurp the throne.

Once successful, the throne will be occupied by his bloodline, and the throne will be passed down from generation to generation from his bloodline.

But if you fail, you will naturally face extremely serious consequences.

Fortunately, King Nanping had made some preparations in advance.

"All the properties and shops have been exchanged for gold and silver."

The old servant beside him said, "The three secret passages have been discovered. It will only take a few hours to transport all the gold and silver out."

"it is good."

Prince Nanping nodded and said, "In the future, you must assist my son well. Remember, within three generations, do not talk about hatred!"

"Yes!" The old servant bowed deeply.

"Go..." King Nanping waved his hand and let the old servant leave. Then he picked up a sword and placed it on his neck.

At this moment, a cry of surprise came from outside: "Who——"

This was the voice of the old servant.

But the shout was interrupted as soon as it was uttered, and then two figures appeared in front of the door and reached out to push it open.

One person said, "Haha, why is your Highness so anxious?"

Prince Nanping was shocked: "Mu Dao Ren?! No, Gin... then the person next to you is... Gin?"

Gin smiled and said, "That's us."

"Why did you two come to look for me, a dying man?"

Jin Jiu said: "Your Highness has committed treason, and according to reason, his entire family should be executed. Now the emperor's decree has been delivered at full speed.

"But our organization upholds justice, and we cannot bear to see the entire line of the prince killed. We have come here specifically to protect one or two of his descendants!"

"Father!"

Two young men appeared in front of the door.

But beside them stood several Grandmasters, who placed their hands on their shoulders and held them tightly.

A look of anger appeared on Prince Nanping's face.

He understood that all the plans he had made in advance had failed.

The other party brought his two sons to his house in order to squeeze out every last bit of benefit from him.

but……

King Nanping looked at Mu Dao Ren——

The Grand Master is right before our eyes.

What can I do?

"In that case, I, the King, thank you very much for your organization's benevolent act!"

Prince Nanping said helplessly, "To express my gratitude, I have 800,000 taels of gold, 15.6 million taels of silver, and countless treasures of all kinds, and I am willing to hand them all over to your organization."

"Hahaha……"

Jinjiu laughed loudly, "What are you talking about, Your Highness? Our organization is committed to benevolence and justice, so how could we accept Your Highness's gold and silver? We are simply impressed by the talents of Your Highness's two sons and would like to invite them to join our organization."

However, the two princes are born noble and cannot endure hardship. Your Majesty would be wise to send a few more servants into the organization to take care of the two princes."

Prince Nanping sighed and said, "My forces have been dispersed and kept silent. Only Agui knows where they are.

In this case, Agui, you should also join the organization and take good care of my two sons."

The old servant who was knocked down by Mu Dao Ren immediately knelt on the ground after hearing this: "Agui...I will obey the prince's orders!"

Jin Jiu smiled and said, "Is this the most loyal and powerful servant beside the prince? Although he is old, he has the cultivation level of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head, which is indeed not weak.

After joining the organization, if you can make great contributions, you may also be rewarded with a Huangliang Pill, which will allow you to break through to the Grandmaster level."

"Huh?" Prince Nanping was stunned.

Could it be that the other party is not just robbing them, but really wants to recruit them into the so-called organization?

Jin Jiu said: "The organization is currently developing overseas businesses. If the prince's servant can become a grandmaster, he may also be able to take charge of the overseas business.

If this is the case, even within my organization, it can be said to be a big umbrella, enough to protect the two princes from wind and rain."

Prince Nanping was overjoyed and said hurriedly, "Agui, did you hear that? After joining the organization, you must make many contributions in exchange for the Yellow Millet Pill and achieve the Grandmaster level!"

Ah Gui kowtowed: "Yes! Your Highness!"
