Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

When Lu Chen appeared in the Imperial Study, several commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were already waiting there, and Zhuge Chongguang and a group of Celestials had also arrived.

Lian Yunxian was also in the Imperial Study at the moment. Her perception was very strong. Even without the First World receiving the telegram from the Embroidered Uniform Guard, she could sense that the restrictions on the Mist World were about to dissipate. So she came to the Imperial Study immediately to see how Lu Chen planned to deal with the invasion of those forces in the Mist World.

Upon seeing Lu Chen appear, everyone immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen glanced at everyone and said, "No need for formalities."

Lu Chen then said to Qin Yushan, who was standing at the entrance of the Imperial Study, "Minister Qin, immediately notify the military officials to arrive at the Hall of State Affairs within half an hour to convene a military meeting."

Qin Yushan cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Qin Yushan left, Lu Chen spoke up, saying, "My esteemed ministers should already know that the restrictions on the Misty World are about to disappear."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Chongguang said directly, "Your Majesty, with the current combat strength of the Great Xia army, I'm afraid it's still not enough to resist the forces of the Misty World. However, I'm sure Your Majesty already has a way to deal with this crisis."

Seeing Lu Chen's calm and unhurried demeanor, one could guess that he must have been well-prepared long ago.

Lu Chen then said, "I do indeed have a solution. You will know once the Myriad Immortals Sect enters the Heavenly Chen World."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone couldn't help but wonder if their Emperor had placed all his hopes on the Myriad Immortals Sect.

According to the intelligence they obtained, although the Myriad Immortals Sect does have some strength, it is only the second largest power in the Misty World, and there is a big gap between it and the Misty Immortal Sect, the largest power in the Misty World. In addition, there is also the Spirit Fox Sect in the Misty World.

The key point is that the forces in the Misty World have been integrated, and the Misty Immortal Sect and the Spirit Fox Sect are even stronger than before. If we rely solely on the Myriad Immortals Sect, it may not be enough to fight against the Misty Immortal Sect and the Spirit Fox Sect.

Although they were uncertain, everyone still believed in their emperor, for he had never done anything without certainty.

Since he thinks there's no problem, then there must be no problem. In any case, the restrictions on the Misty World will disappear in the next few days, and soon they will know what their emperor's trump card is.

In less than half an hour, the military officers and officials of Yancheng Military Headquarters arrived at the council hall, and the military conference officially began.

Upon seeing Lu Chen again, the military officials immediately guessed what had happened. Lu Chen had not convened a military conference of this scale for a long time, and as emperor, he was practically a hands-off ruler, having delegated all political affairs to Zhuge Chongguang.

Now that the emperor has taken over military affairs again, it means that something must have happened in the Misty World. After sitting on the dragon throne, Lu Chen glanced at the officials below and then asked, "The restrictions on the Misty World are about to dissipate, and the Great Xia Dynasty will face challenges once again."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the military officials thought to themselves, just as they had suspected, that the restrictions on the Misty World were indeed about to dissipate.

Lu Chen then looked at Li Yu, who was in charge of manufacturing the rune-inscribed weapons, and asked, "Minister Li, how many rune-inscribed cannons do we have in total?"

Li Yu stood up, cupped his hands, and replied, "Your Majesty, there are a total of 100,000 talisman-inscribed firearms, 10,000 talisman-inscribed mortars, 1,000 talisman-inscribed cannons, 8 million rounds of various talisman bullets, and 100,000 shells for mortars and cannons."

After hearing Li Yu's report, the military officials, especially the generals, felt more confident.

However, Lu Chen spoke up at this moment, saying, "Not enough, far from enough."

Lu Chen continued, "Have the arsenal continue to ramp up production."

Li Yu immediately replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen then looked at Xuan Yuan Chen, "General Xuan Yuan, how are your newly recruited soldiers doing in their training?"

The War Dragon Army has expanded from just a few thousand to 60,000, including a division of 20,000 men that was formed in the last year. Xuan Yuan Chen is in charge of training this new recruit.

Xuan Yuan Chen stood up and said, "Your Majesty, they have all mastered the use of rune weapons."

Although rune weapons may seem no different from ordinary weapons, certain methods are still needed to unleash their full power, such as infusing them with spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy in the Tianchen World has now been restored and is much more abundant than before. Ninth-rank martial artists can sense the presence of spiritual energy and have the ability to use spiritual power, although this requires some time to practice.

Only when all the soldiers can infuse their rune weapons with spiritual power can the War Dragon Army's full strength be unleashed.

After hearing Xuan Yuanchen's answer, Lu Chen said, "Very good, next let's talk about the deployment of the army."

"I have already ordered the evacuation of the people of Black Dragon City. From now on, Black Dragon City will serve as the center of our defense to prevent the invaders from the Misty World from entering the Great Xia Dynasty. In addition..."

Lu Chen then made arrangements for the deployment of the Zhanlong Army. After the military meeting, the entire military headquarters was busy.

After the military conference ended and the military officials left, Yun Xianxian, who had been sitting silently in the main hall, finally spoke up and asked, "Do you really have some trump card? Or are you planning to rely on those rune weapons to deal with the cultivators of the Misty World?"

Although Lu Chen's rune weapon is indeed quite powerful, and Yun Xianxian herself has personally used rune weapons and acknowledged their power, rune weapons are mostly used by ninth-rank martial artists, with only a portion being grandmasters and great grandmasters.

They were unable to fully unleash the power of the rune weapons, and Yun Xianxian did not believe that the War Dragon Army could contend with the forces of the Misty World.

Moreover, the rune weapons currently used by the Great Xia Dynasty are only effective against Celestials, but they are unlikely to be effective against experts in the Creation Realm or Yin-Yang Realm.

Lu Chen did not answer directly, but instead took out a set of Holy Radiance Armor from his system space.

Then he handed the Holy Radiance Armor to Yun Xianxian, who curiously accepted it.

Lu Chen continued, "Master, try it on and see how it looks."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xianxian unhesitatingly channeled her spiritual power into the Holy Radiance Armor. The next moment, the Holy Radiance Armor transformed into a beam of light that surrounded Yun Xianxian's body. Soon, Yun Xianxian was draped in a golden, shimmering armor.

Feeling the armor frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy and channeling it into her body, Yun Xianxian was slightly taken aback. This armor could actually help the user absorb spiritual energy?

Moreover, she could feel that her strength had increased rapidly after putting on the armor. Her current true realm was the Creation Realm, but the moment she put on the armor, she possessed strength close to the Yin-Yang Realm.

The armor that can rapidly elevate a person's cultivation level by a major realm is indeed a treasure.

only……

Yun Xianxian then asked, "Who do you plan to give this suit of armor to?"

Although the item is good, there is only one. If Lu Chen uses it himself, he will only have the strength of the Yin-Yang Realm at most.

Furthermore, the Yin-Yang Realm built up with armor might not be as powerful as the Yin-Yang Realm of the Misty World. Relying solely on this armor, it would still be quite difficult to fight against the forces of the Misty World.

Just as Yun Xianxian was thinking this, Lu Chen said, "Master, this battle armor is for you."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xianxian was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected Lu Chen to give her something so precious. Yun Xianxian quickly said, "This armor is too valuable. It will be of great use to you. Your master cannot accept it."

At this point, Yun Xianxian prepared to take off her armor and return it to Lu Chen.

But at that moment, Lu Chen casually waved his hand, and hundreds of such battle armors instantly floated in the air. Seeing this, Yun Xianxian was completely stunned.

She originally thought such treasures were extremely precious and rare, but this traitor casually waved his hand and produced so many identical suits of armor.

Yun Xianxian quickly came to her senses. If it were someone else who took out so many suits of armor, it would be hard to explain. But Lu Chen was different. He was the son of the Great Emperor and even owned such a luxurious immortal ship. It was not surprising that he could take out hundreds of such precious suits of armor.

Lu Chen smiled slightly, then said to Yun Xianxian, "Master, if I told you I had a thousand sets of this armor, do you think the forces in the Misty World would still be a match for me?"

Yun Xianxian was taken aback. A thousand sets?

She thought Lu Chen only had a little over a hundred sets of armor. With so many battle suits, plus the fact that the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect was Lu Chen's territory, how could the forces in the Misty World possibly fight against Lu Chen?

Once the restrictions on the Misty World disappear, the cultivators of the Myriad Immortals Sect will enter the Heavenly Chen World. Lu Chen only needs to give these battle armors to those Heavenly Human Realm cultivators to have an army composed of cultivators with Creation Realm strength. Furthermore, the power of those Creation Realm and Yin-Yang Realm experts of the Myriad Immortals Sect will also be elevated by another major realm.

With the overall strength of the Myriad Immortals Sect, it could surpass all the forces in the Misty World in an instant. How could the Misty Immortals Sect and the Spirit Fox Sect possibly fight against the Great Xia Dynasty?

So this was Lu Chen's trump card.

Lu Chen continued, "Master, you should keep this suit of armor."

Yun Xianxian thought about it and didn't continue to refuse. Since Lu Chen had so many Holy Radiance Armors, losing one set wouldn't matter.

"Since you already have a solution, then I won't say anything more. I'll go back to cultivate now."

"Alright, Master, go ahead and get busy."

Yun Xianxian then left the Hall of State Affairs.

After Yun Xianxian left, Lu Chen took out the Time-Space Mirror and directly contacted Ji Hongwen of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect. (End of Chapter)
