Chapter 586: Gathering of the Sons of Heaven

"The incense belief power has increased again, and the amount of increase is very large. It seems that after the Yin Sons of Heaven are exterminated, the incense of the world is gathering toward the few remaining people. Even I, this Imperial Preceptor, have such a feeling, let alone my father."

Li Yi can clearly feel at this moment that during this period of time, his incense belief power is stronger than before, as if it has condensed into substance. Combined with his own magic power, his entire body is emitting a faint clear light.

At this moment, he seems omnipotent, possessing divine might to shake heaven and earth, and his own strength has reached an unprecedented level, making people feel somewhat unreal.

However, Li Yi is not deceived by the temporary strength, because as long as he leaves this world and cuts off the incense belief power, he will return to his usual state.

And the one who benefits the most this time is Xiang Xiangzi.

She uses the seven-colored stone to transform into a new body, then relies on the incense belief power to recover her Primordial Spirit power. Now, only a few days have passed, and the whole person seems to have been reborn, draped in rosy light, with ten thousand rays of auspicious color, like a goddess descending to the mortal world.

Although her own strength has not recovered to its peak state, given time, in this world, she will definitely be able to become an enlightened one, and even going a step further is not impossible.

"Taiyi, it seems that we are not the only two people who have taken action against the Yin Sons of Heaven recently. Your father's side must also have taken action, because I can feel that there have been two unreasonable increases in incense belief power recently. This means that two Yin Sons of Heaven have died. Adding the previous Shenzong and Guangzong, four of the Zhao Dynasty's Yin Sons of Heaven are gone."

Xiang Xiangzi says: "The remaining Yin Sons of Heaven must have been alarmed. Look, this imperial mausoleum is now empty, and not even a single incense god can be seen."

At this moment, the two of them have arrived before a massive mountain again.

This is the mausoleum of the Yingzong Emperor of the Zhao Dynasty.

However, now, the entire imperial mausoleum is empty. Clearly, they received the news long ago and fled in advance.

"It seems the remaining Yin Sons of Heaven have already united. It is impossible to defeat them one by one. Since that is the case, let's just stop the action and use the powerful incense belief power gathered during this period to continue cultivation."

"The ones who are truly anxious are not us, but them, because we will become stronger and stronger as time passes, while they will not." Li Yi thinks for a moment and says.

Xiang Xiangzi says: "Makes sense. Now is not the time to take the initiative to attack. It is better to wait for them to come find us."

The two of them hit it off immediately, simply taking the Embroidered Uniform Guards to destroy mountains and temples while concentrating on cultivation.

Li Yi has currently opened sixty meridians in his body, but his current realm is still at the third layer of the Five Qi Realm, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. He originally thought about concentrating on cultivation after solving this matter, but now it seems the plan has to be changed.

And as soon as the action stopped here.

The Shenwu Emperor Li Jiye immediately received news from the Golden Pupil Guards.

At this moment, Li Jiye is rushing to the place where the Zhenzong Emperor is located. When he hears this news, he also immediately understands that the initiative has been lost, and the remaining Yin Sons of Heaven must have already gathered together, discussing how to deal with himself and True Person Taiyi.

"Let True Person Taiyi return to the capital. Put the matter of destroying mountains and temples aside for now." Li Jiye lets the Golden Pupil Guards send a message immediately.

At this time, they must join forces to deal with the impending enemy and cannot wander around outside anymore.

Otherwise, if they are targeted, it will definitely be ominous.

The capital city is shrouded in Dragon-Tiger aura, which has a restraining effect on all incense gods in the world. If they want to deal with the Yin Sons of Heaven, it is best to act in the capital, at least it can make the Yin Sons of Heaven lose any foreign aid.

It is just that there are at least six remaining Yin Sons of Heaven.

Can he and Li Yi have a chance of winning?

Li Jiye does not know, but now that things have come to this, he can only try.

After thinking clearly, he immediately takes his subordinates and returns to the capital.

In fact, this approach of Li Jiye is correct.

Because at the same time.

The place where the Zhao Dynasty rose, this three-hundred-mile fertile land, is flourishing with incense and prosperity, like a small capital city. This place is called Longcheng, and twelve statues of Sons of Heaven are erected here, with countless incense before each statue.

However, just a few days ago, four imperial statues cracked for no reason, turning into a pile of rubble.

The appearance of this situation indicates that four Yin Sons of Heaven have encountered misfortune.

Such major news naturally cannot be hidden from the eyes of the other Yin Sons of Heaven. They smell the crisis and gather in Longcheng to discuss countermeasures.

At this moment, inside an ancestral temple in Longcheng.

There are six Yin Sons of Heaven gathered together.

The leader is a man wearing armor, looking like a general, spirited and full of dominance. This person is none other than the founder of the Zhao Dynasty, named Zhao Tianxing, who was honored as the Taizu Emperor after death.

And arranged in order are Taizong, Zhenzong, Yingzong, Guangzong, and Lizong.

"Is that guy Zhao Chenggan crazy? Not only did he unite with that so-called True Person Taiyi to destroy mountains and temples, but he actually moved against us ancestors. Doesn't he know that these Yin Sons of Heaven of our Zhao Dynasty are the cornerstone ensuring the dynasty's inheritance? If he moves against us, heaven and earth will definitely be overturned and the country will change hands."

The one speaking is the Yingzong Emperor. He is furious, scolding with a voice like thunder. The surrounding heaven and earth seem to respond, and in an instant, dark clouds gather, as if a thunderstorm is about to arrive.

"Our Shenwu Emperor is not crazy, but has great courage. Haven't you all seen it? True Person Taiyi is just a sharp blade in his hand, a blade used to execute the incense gods of the world. Today he needs him, so he can confer him as Imperial Preceptor. When he is no longer needed one day, with one imperial edict, this True Person Taiyi will be nothing."

The Taizong Emperor is a calm middle-aged man. At this moment, he says calmly: "And according to what I know, the reason why this Shenwu Emperor wants to do this is because he wants to gather the incense of the world upon himself, to step into the path of cultivation as an emperor, so as to live long without dying and have the dynasty last forever."

"If an emperor can live long without dying by relying on cultivation, then we ancestors are naturally useless. Living only consumes the incense of the world, which is why the Shenwu Emperor needs to exterminate us."

"If all the Yin Sons of Heaven die, coupled with the smooth progress of destroying mountains and temples, all the incense of the world will gather on him alone. At that time, this Shenwu Emperor will surpass anyone in history and become a truly supreme existence."

Once these words are spoken, the other Yin Sons of Heaven are shocked.

"There is such a thing?" The two emperors, Guangzong and Lizong, clearly did not expect that this descendant would have such a big plot.

Wishing to use the incense of the world to nourish one person and walk out a path that has never existed before.

Instead, the Taizu Emperor, Zhao Tianxing, suddenly laughs at this moment: "My descendants are countless. I didn't expect that a truly extraordinary figure would emerge. A thousand years ago, when I swept across the mountains and rivers and ascended the throne as emperor, I didn't dare to move against the incense gods of the world. Even for the remnants of the previous dynasty, I left a way out. Although it was for the stability of the country, in the final analysis, it was still lacking the courage to destroy mountains and temples."

"Now, the world is slightly peaceful, and this Shenwu Emperor wants to change heaven and earth and reshape the world. It is truly unprecedented in ancient and modern times. If he really succeeds, the Zhao Dynasty will truly last for thousands of generations."

"Taizu, now is not the time to praise this Shenwu Emperor. He has united with True Person Taiyi, and I fear that in a few days, he will kill his way to Longcheng. At that time, I fear our lives will be hard to preserve." Yingzong says seriously.

!

"This world is the world of our Zhao Dynasty, not the world of Zhao Chenggan alone. If he wants to commit such an unfilial act, then we should also plan early, strangle this Shenwu Emperor, and then when the new emperor ascends the throne, everything will be as before."

Kill the Shenwu Emperor?

This is difficult.

Everyone falls silent for a moment.

In terms of incense power, this Shenwu Emperor is the current monarch, and his incense power is only more than theirs, not less. Moreover, two Yin Sons of Heaven were already executed by the Shenwu Emperor before. Such strength is clearly extraordinary.

If you add that True Person Taiyi, this great battle really doesn't have much chance of winning.

However, they have the Taizu Emperor.

Thinking of this, everyone looks at the Taizu Emperor Zhao Tianxing on the main seat in unison.

The strongest person here is this Taizu Emperor.

If he says the Shenwu Emperor can be killed, then tomorrow this emperor will surely die. If even he has no confidence, then the people present will not be able to amount to anything.

"Not to mention whether we can kill the Shenwu Emperor, even if we do, what then? How much casualties will we have to pay?" At this moment, the Taizu Emperor speaks calmly: "The Shenwu Emperor and True Person Taiyi are not ordinary people. Once the war starts, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. At that time, who knows how many of the six Yin Sons of Heaven will be left?"

"Even if we win, it will be a miserable victory. And if the Shenwu Emperor and True Person Taiyi die, what will happen to the country? Who can shoulder the common people of the world? At that time, the dynasty will change, and we will become the remnants of the previous dynasty, still unable to avoid destruction."

"That is also true." The several Yin Sons of Heaven also furrow their brows.

Fight, suffer heavy losses, and the country changes hands.

Don't fight, sit and wait for death, and it is still a dead end.

"Taizu Emperor, since fighting won't work and not fighting won't work, could it be that we have to negotiate with the Shenwu Emperor?" At this moment, Yingzong raises the question.

Taizu Emperor Zhao says: "Not bad, I have this intention. What the Shenwu Emperor wants is the incense of the world, and we have been Yin Sons of Heaven for many years, accumulating countless incense, which is useless to us. If we can abandon the incense and become ordinary incense gods, it might not be a way out."

"If we abandon the incense, it is undoubtedly cutting off our own arms. I do not agree with this method of handing over our lives to others." The Taizong Emperor immediately refutes.

"Not bad, although we are the ancestors of the Shenwu Emperor, he will not consider blood relations and will definitely reckon with us in the future." The other Yin Sons of Heaven also echo.

Zhao Tianxing says calmly: "Whether to fight or negotiate is not up to me, but to be evaluated based on the opponent's strength. If the opponent's strength is powerful and we are no match, even if we don't want to negotiate, we have to."

"Let's take a trip to the capital and see this Shenwu Emperor. If he is truly extraordinary, then negotiate. If he is just a facade, then execute him and support a new emperor to ascend the throne, how about that?"

After these words are finished, the several Yin Sons of Heaven ponder for a moment, and finally can only nod.

However, it can be heard from this Taizu Emperor's tone that he does not want to sacrifice the Zhao Dynasty's country because of an internal struggle.

But this is also understandable.

After all, he conquered this world and certainly does not want to destroy it with his own hands.
