Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

"Zhao Gao, you said that the Queen Mother forcibly summoned our teacher again?" King Zheng of Qin asked, frowning.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager specifically arranged for someone to invite Dongzi to Ganquan Palace, and no one can stop her," said the young eunuch named Zhao Gao with a helpless expression.

[Among the Hundred Schools of Thought, the revered sage was Dongzi]

As the four core theories of society, politics, economics, and military affairs became more and more complete, the royal families and nobles of the seven kingdoms, as well as scholars throughout the land, all came to know about these four core theories.

As for Dong Qing, the creator of the four core theories, he has been respectfully called Dongzi, and his status as a national protector is no longer respectable.

Although he cannot be compared to the great philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought like Confucius and Lao Tzu, he is still on par with the Confucian sages like Xunzi.

"It must be tough on the teacher..."

King Zheng of Qin felt somewhat ashamed, feeling that he had let Dong Qing down.

Chapter 741, You Can't Help!

For King Zheng of Qin...

Empress Dowager Zhao Ji's temper was not something an ordinary person could tolerate. Sometimes, even her own son couldn't stand it, let alone Dong Qing, an outsider.

A few days ago, King Zheng of Qin also heard Empress Dowager Zhao Ji tell the story of Dream of the Red Chamber, and he roughly understood the reason why his mother frequently asked Dong Qing to go to Ganquan Palace.

As for whether anything could happen between the two, King Zheng of Qin felt it was unlikely.

Since the two are not from the same generation, Dongqing probably wouldn't accept such a thing.

Moreover, even if something really did happen between the two of them, if that person was Dong Qing, King Zheng of Qin might not find it unacceptable.

Given Dongqing's status as "Dongzi," it was Empress Dowager Zhao Ji who benefited from Dongqing's influence, and King Zheng of Qin truly didn't mind that his teacher became his father in a certain sense.

And one more thing.

The relationship between King Zheng of Qin and Queen Dowager Zhao Ji has improved considerably. Their mother-son relationship is no longer as cold as it was at the beginning, and they seem to have returned to the state of mutual dependence they had in the past in the State of Zhao.

This was all thanks to Dong Qing's guidance; otherwise, King Zheng of Qin would not have taken the initiative to connect with his mother, Zhao Ji, as his mind was preoccupied with matters of state.

King Zheng of Qin was indeed a great ruler who devoted himself to the country. During his reign, the Qin state prospered and eventually unified the six other states, establishing a unified dynasty.

However, he clearly did not care enough for his family, which led to the later development of Prince Fusu, who was brainwashed by Confucianism and inflexible, and Prince Huhai, who was cruel, ruthless and extremely stupid.

No one is perfect.

King Zheng of Qin was a competent ruler, but not a good father or a good son. He clearly did not care enough about his mother, Zhao Ji, and his offspring.

Dong Qing is not a perfect man either. He is lecherous and womanizing. He likes beautiful women from different worlds in the myriad realms. He is completely ignorant about national affairs and is often ridiculed by Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong as a political idiot.

Undoubtedly, this is a weakness.

However, he usually cares a lot about the people around him, satisfying not only their emotional needs but also their physical needs, so his base of support is very stable.

Never underestimate a woman's ability to cause trouble. They may not be able to help much, but when it comes to causing destruction, they can definitely show you the power of women.

Therefore, after the relationship between King Zheng of Qin and Zhao Ji improved, King Zheng received a lot of help from Zhao Ji, both overt and covert, and successfully secured his throne.

Most importantly, she facilitated King Zheng of Qin's apprenticeship to Dong Qing, and secondly, she secured the reins of power in the Qin court, giving King Zheng the authority to rival Lü Buwei before he assumed personal rule.

These were all powers granted to King Zheng of Qin by Zhao Ji.

She now has complete faith in her son.

"Speaking of which, ever since she entered this deep palace, Mother has been depressed and unhappy. I haven't seen her so happy in a long time. Teacher is really good at coaxing women."

King Zheng of Qin sighed, then lowered his head and continued to study the four core theories of politics, military affairs, economics, and society that Dong Qing had recently taught him.

These four core theories, although Dong Qing shamelessly copied and plagiarized the governing philosophies of his wife Qian Renxue [Emperor Qinghe].

But knowledge is knowledge, and knowledge is priceless. The four core theories that are publicly disclosed today are only the surface; only King Zheng of Qin can learn the deeper theories.

the other side.

Xianyang Palace, Ganquan Palace.

In the vast Ganquan Palace, there were only two people in the very center, with the palace maids standing far away. Everyone knew that these were the noble people whom they were not allowed to peek at or eavesdrop on.

"Sir, I only invited you as a guest, why are you so unhappy?"

Empress Dowager Zhao Ji sat before Dong Qing, dressed in a long, bright red robe. She resembled a proud peacock, spreading her magnificent wings before the person she loved.

"No, I just... have something to do. Your Majesty, you should know I'm very busy." Dong Qing shrugged.

"What are you busy with? I can help you." Empress Dowager Zhao Ji pursed her lips. Although she was already over thirty or in her early forties, she looked like a wronged little girl.

"You can't help!" Dong Qing said helplessly.

"Sir, tell me! How do you know I can't help you if you don't tell me?"

Empress Dowager Zhao Ji playfully punched Dong Qing's chest with her small fists, giving him an adorable look that said, "You're not leaving until you tell me."

Compared to the Qin Dynasty's empress dowagers throughout history, she was the most brainless and the most love-obsessed.

She is a scourge to the country because she is willful and will do anything for her man.

Even the ability to rebel against one's own man.

He wanted to kill his own son, King Zheng of Qin.

This kind of thing would be quite bizarre even in the myriad realms of the universe.

Few women would go to this lengths for a man.

Let's just put it that way.

Dong Qing is now plotting against her son, King Zheng of Qin. She'll probably consider it. If he were to sacrifice a little more of his charm, she might even hand over the tiger seal that commands the Qin army.

pity.

Dongqing was not interested in imperial power.

He only believes in the power of the Great Power Gathering and his own strength.

The fist is power, and political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. As long as one's fist is big, no one will dare to disobey one's will, and one can also indirectly control the strongest power.

"Empress Dowager, please stop joking. I've recently encountered some problems in my cultivation, and you can't help me." Dong Qing shook his head and pressed down on Empress Dowager Zhao Ji's small hand that was pounding her chest.

He has now nearly perfected the first level of the Undying Scripture, the Undying Skin.

He was very close to successfully breaking through the second level of the Undying Sutra, the Undying Tendon.

Logically speaking...

He wanted to perfect the first level of the Undying Scripture, the Undying Skin, which would have taken at least fifty years. He accelerated his cultivation by more than forty years, reaching the perfect level in just six years.

all of these.

All of this stemmed from Dongqing using the Supreme Treasure Technique, the Heaven-Covering Hand, to devour Douluo Star, thus keeping his physical body in a special cultivation state at all times.

In this special cultivation state, Dong Qing's cultivation speed was five or six times faster than usual, which is why he successfully completed the first level of the Undying Scripture more than forty years ahead of schedule.

Another point is the act of eating planets itself.

Dongqing's eating is not the kind of eating that involves food; it is a kind of eating that integrates the external planetary planes and even the universe into its own system, a kind of eating that merges all the heavens and myriad worlds into one body.

This special kind of eating requires a strong physical body; otherwise, the pressure from the laws of heaven and earth brought by these personal worlds will cause the physical body to uncontrollably collapse.

This collapse is irreversible. With Dong Qing's current physical strength, he can barely devour one planet from Douluo Star, and he is still a long way from devouring a second planet.

However, for the time being...

Dong Qing himself did not realize that he had unintentionally embarked on a completely new and unknown path, a path that would put him far ahead of his peers.

and so.

Ever since Dongqing swallowed Douluo Star and turned it into his personal world, he has subconsciously wanted to swallow another planet, but he has not done so for the time being due to the limitations of his physical body.

But now, Dong Qing is not far from successfully breaking through the second level of the Undying Scripture, the Undying Tendon, and the day when he once again devours the planet beneath the feet of the Great Qin World is also not far off.

However, he didn't think too much about it and didn't understand that he had created a completely new path. He continued to cultivate diligently every day and worked hard to successfully swallow the next planet.

It's not for any other reason than convenience.

Now he needs the Sky Shuttle's help every time he comes to the Qin Dynasty.

To return to Douluo Star, all you need to do is open the door to your personal world.

To know is to know.

To not know is to not know.

That is knowledge!

For Dongqing

There are some things that are better left unsaid. If he knew them and tried too hard, he might go astray. This half-understanding, childlike mindset of cultivation is more suitable for him.

The Immortal Sutra

The strongest physical cultivation method created by heaven and earth, a creation-level technique (possibly born of heaven and earth), a supreme treasure prepared for humanoid beings, which cannot be judged by ordinary reason.

However, in order to conform to the rules of this vast world, the Immortal Scripture has evolved into a completely new Immortal Scripture.

The words in the scriptures are a manifestation of the Tao, transcending the limitations of time.

Few beings can master the Immortal Scripture, but once mastered, it can grant a person's physical body eternal life.

At the same time, the powerful and invincible physical body will firmly lock the core of one's soul, making one fearless of any secret techniques targeting the soul.

As the saying goes.

The knife severs the flesh, the heart severs the soul.

When the physical body becomes strong enough, it will support the soul, because the spirit and the body are one.

Any living being with a strong physical body will also have a strong soul.

Human life is a vast sea of ​​suffering.

Humans are in the sea, their physical bodies are boats, and their souls are the people inside. The boats carry people, sailing towards the other shore. Only by persisting in cultivating the physical body and strengthening the boat can one reach the other shore of the sea of ​​suffering.

The physical body is immortal, the soul is eternal.

Therefore, the general outline of the Immortal Scripture is only eight simple words, yet it has already explained the essence of all things in the myriad realms.

The physical body is the root, and the laws are the leaves.

Only when the roots of a tree are deep enough will its branches and leaves grow more luxuriantly.
