Chapter 588: Settled in One Strike

~12 min read 2,398 words

These six Yin Sons of Heaven wanted to use the method of negotiation to exchange for a decent ending.

They did not want to take action against people, because they were not generals, not soldiers, but emperors. And since ancient times, there was no principle of emperors charging into battle, only Emperor Taizu Zhao Zhang Tianxing would do such a thing.

Therefore, his way of thinking still stayed in his lifetime and was not a practitioner, so he could not understand the behavior of Emperor Emperor Shenwu and True Person Brother Tai Yi.

Clearly, things that could be negotiated, why be persistent in fighting a battle?

This was very stupid, and very irrational.

Looking at the atmosphere in the Yongchang Hall being somewhat solemn, it truly seemed like they were going to fight.

At this time, Emperor Yingzong opened his mouth and said: "Emperor Emperor Shenwu, calm down first. Many things cannot be solved just by fighting and killing. You are also a monarch of a country, you should know that a master should not start a war out of anger. This is not a street fight between ordinary people, but concerns the world and the national destiny."

"Not to mention the problem of winning or losing, if we fight fiercely, it is hard to avoid someone dying. Perhaps it is you who will collapse, perhaps it is True Person Brother Tai Yi who will sit and transform, or perhaps it is several of us Yin Sons of Heaven who will dissipate."

"No matter which side suffers casualties, I think it is something that neither side wants to see. Since that is the case, negotiation may not be a bad thing. Emperor Emperor Shenwu, what you need is the incense of the world, and what we want is the stability of coexisting with the country."

Emperor Emperor Shenwu Li Li Jiye took a look. He understood that these several Yin Sons of Heaven had already lost their ambition during their lifetime. Without a physical body, turning into Yin souls, their courage was gone. They only wanted to lie on this dynasty to suck blood and enjoy pleasure, and were unwilling to move the sword and spear again.

This was also about the same as what he had anticipated before.

Seeing Li Li Jiye calm down, at this time, Emperor Taizong immediately said: "Emperor Emperor Shenwu, why not do this, we will take a step back, as long as the three-hundred-mile Dragon City is given, this is the ancestral foundation, and it cannot be abandoned."

"Three-hundred-mile Dragon City?"

Li Li Jiye glanced: "The land is not considered big. However, if you truly have sincerity, I can give you a suggestion. I will give you five hundred miles of land, but I have one requirement: you abandon the title of emperor, act as ordinary princes, and let the incense of the world to Me."

"Keeping the incense faith power on you is the biggest waste. If you agree, you can continue to stay in Dragon City to act as a tyrant and enjoy pleasure. If you do not agree, you will still not be able to avoid a fight."

Abandon the title of emperor?

This requirement made several Yin Sons of Heaven instantly somewhat angry.

Without the status of emperor, in the future, they would only be ordinary incense gods, and at that time, they would still be manipulated by others. This was no different from kneeling and surrendering.

However, at this moment, Zhao Zhang Tianxing, the founding emperor, suddenly laughed: "Emperor Emperor Shenwu's condition is not harsh. Leaving five hundred miles of Dragon City for us to spend our old age in is not bad. It is just that I have one more requirement."

"Speak." Li Li Jiye said calmly.

Facing Li Li Jiye's rudeness, Zhao Zhang Tianxing was not angry. He only said: "I fought for many years during my lifetime, and after death, I turned into a Yin god, enjoying the incense of the world. Now a thousand years of time have passed. Although I have spent most of my time in a muddled state, I have accumulated some strength over these years."

"Letting a founding emperor like Me end so gloomily, I am truly unwilling. Why not do this: Emperor Emperor Shenwu and True Person Brother Tai Yi, whoever comes to take a strike from Me, if they are safe and sound, we will immediately abandon the title of emperor today, flee Dragon City, and never appear again."

Subsequently, he took off the precious sword at his waist, then stood it in front of him, looking at Emperor Emperor Shenwu and Li Yi with a smile that was not a smile.

A strike to decide the outcome?

The other five Yin Sons of Heaven looked at Taizu.

This indeed fit Taizu's style.

Because when he was fighting for the world, Taizu had fought generals with the enemy army, and finally cut off the enemy's head with one sword, thus winning the crucial great battle, and successfully taking this world.

Now, it was another time of crisis, and Taizu still wanted to bet on his own strength.

And this was a high-stakes gamble with the smallest cost.

If he won, whether it was Emperor Emperor Shenwu or True Person Brother Tai Yi, they would die under his sword. If he lost, then he had nothing to say, and could only retreat to Dragon City and abandon everything.

Emperor Emperor Shenwu Li Li Jiye did not speak, only looked at Li Yi, as if asking for his opinion.

But Li Yi said very decisively: "Good, then it will be according to you. You and I will exchange a strike. At that time, you will understand that abandoning the title of emperor will be the most correct decision you have ever made."

"Don't waste time. This is not a place to take action. Come to the sky."

After saying this, he turned and walked out of the Yongchang Hall. Subsequently, a golden auspicious cloud appeared under his feet, carrying him and flying toward the sky.

Although this was the imperial city, the aura of the Son of Heaven was rich, which could interfere with the operation of Daoist techniques, but with Li Yi's current strength, it was not to the point where he could not even display the Art of Riding Clouds and Driving Mist.

Soon.

Li Yi constantly ascended, passed through the clouds, and arrived in the high sky.

Such a height was no longer affected by the aura of the Son of Heaven in the imperial city.

But soon.

A young man wearing armor and full of spirit also flew over. His body began to change at this moment, and the massive incense faith power that was like substance surged, like a sea of clouds, surging toward all directions with him as the center.

"Is this the incense power of the founding emperor?" Li Yi's face moved slightly.

He could feel that the surrounding heaven and earth seemed to have been affected, becoming somewhat strange, as if forming a domain that belonged exclusively to the opponent. In this domain, this Emperor Taizu was omnipotent with a single thought.

As if a divine kingdom that existed because of him.

"True Person Brother Tai Yi, offense."

At this moment, Zhao Zhang Tianxing looked at Li Yi with a serious expression. His body began to constantly expand and grow larger. In just a short moment, it was nine feet tall, like a god descending to the world.

Subsequently, the nearby incense sea of clouds rolled, and actually quickly turned into armored soldiers and war horses. In less than a while, the momentum of thousands of troops and horses had formed around. And he himself slowly pulled out the precious sword at his waist.

This precious sword was not any powerful magic treasure, but an ordinary sharp weapon. However, because of the incense nourishment for a thousand years, and accompanying Zhao Zhang Tianxing to fight the world, it had become spiritual over time and became a special weapon.

The moment Zhao Zhang Tianxing held the precious sword, the entire heaven and earth was trembling slightly, and an endless great power surged from this heaven and earth, constantly gathering on the blade of this precious sword.

This was not just the power of incense faith, but the blessing of heaven and earth power.

"This heaven and earth is working in concert with him? After the incense path reaches this point, will there be such a change?" Seeing this scene, Li Yi had some strange colors.

Fortunately, this heaven and earth of the opponent was not big enough. If it were bigger, or if it could shroud the entire world, wouldn't his strike contain the power of a world?

After realizing this point, Li Yi felt that the incense method still had great potential to be excavated. If it were perfected, the future achievements would definitely not be low.

But it seemed that this was not the time to think about this.

This Emperor Taizu's blade had already carried the power of a world. This strike was destined to be shocking, but he had not stopped his action, but opened his mouth to inhale. The sea of clouds filling the sky rolled, and the thousands of troops and horses that had condensed turned into strands of power and surged toward that precious sword as quickly as possible.

Such power had already exceeded the limit that this Emperor Taizu could control.

!

The massive power made the hands holding the sword tremble, and the nine-foot-tall body was even constantly disintegrating.

"Possessing a body of powerful strength, but not knowing how to use it, I have not seen anyone who would collapse themselves when mobilizing power in all the time I have cultivated." Seeing this scene, Li Yi opened his mouth directly.

"Do not disturb my mind. This sword represents the country of the Zhao Dynasty, the incense faith of hundreds of millions of people. You cannot catch it." Zhao Zhang Tianxing shouted suddenly, his voice echoing like rolling thunder in the sky.

"Whether I can catch it or not is not up to you." Li Yi did not have half a thought of being arrogant, but directly took out the divine wood great bow from the Five Elements Bracelet, and then a black-gold arrow appeared in his hand.

Nock the arrow and pull the bow.

The power of the Dragon and Tiger surged, and the four-colored magic power surged. Just by slowly opening this great bow, the surrounding air was wailing, and heaven and earth seemed to be slowly torn apart by a huge force.

"A bow and arrow wants to resist my sword of the country. It is simply wishful thinking." Zhao Zhang Tianxing shouted, and the heavy precious sword in his hand was raised.

At this moment, heaven and earth seemed to have turned into the shape of a great sword. Inside this sword, one could see the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers, one could see hundreds of millions of people, and one could see incense faith.

It was precisely because there was too much power blessed on it, too terrifying, that Zhao Zhang Tianxing had not yet swung the sword, and his body collapsed again, large pieces of body stripped off, turning into plumes of green smoke filling the sky.

But he did not dare to let Li Yi continue to pull the bow. Although he did not know what magical things that great bow had, since it was taken out by True Person Brother Tai Yi to fight the enemy at this time, it must be an extremely extraordinary divine weapon.

Suddenly, this sword fell with a bang.

Its power was enough to easily split mountains and cut off rivers, and the power contained in it erupted, which could easily destroy a piece of heaven and earth.

That an incense god could reach this point had exceeded Li Yi's expectations, reaching an unimaginable point.

Li Yi did not dodge or evade. He just looked cold and pulled the divine wood great bow as much as possible. At the same time, the moment the blade fell, he loosened his hand and shot this black-gold arrow out.

This divine bow arrow from the Demon God World could easily pierce through Dao artifacts when in Earth. In the past, in order to take down that great demon, not only were several Dao artifacts lost, but Xiang Xiang Xiangzi's life was also sacrificed.

Now, the power of the divine bow was displayed again, but this time it was facing an enemy.

The black-gold arrow turned into a ray of light and disappeared in a flash.

The speed was outrageously fast, as if crossing space. Even Li Yi himself had no way to track its trajectory, and could only identify the direction of its hit through the moment of shooting the arrow.

That heaven and earth like a precious sword was immediately torn open with a hideous opening after being crossed by this black light.

Mountains and rivers collapsed, the people were upside down, and the incense disintegrated.

The entire heaven and earth seemed to have been cut off.

Seeing such a scene, this Emperor Taizu immediately opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief.

However, without waiting for him to be shocked.

Subsequently, he looked down again, only to see a hole in his chest at some point, surrounded by black-gold brilliance. This brilliance seemed to have aggressiveness, making his body covered with cracks in an instant.

"I, lost? How is this possible." Zhao Zhang Tianxing could not believe this scene.

He did not think he would lose. With this sword, he had the confidence to behead this True Person Brother Tai Yi and regain the lost power and status.

Boom!

Accompanied by the blade being broken, this heaven and earth exploded with a bang.

Countless terrifying forces spread toward all directions, swallowing Zhao Zhang Tianxing and Li Yi not far away in an instant.

"Not good." Li Yi's face changed drastically. He operated his magic power and blessed it on the red-feathered purple-gold armor on his body as much as possible.

The Dao artifact-level armor was bright red at this moment, turning into a divine bird that shrouded him inside, blocking the aftermath of the opponent's sword.
