Chapter 365: Conquering the Barbarians begins, the army crosses the border, the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable is actually your perso

96th year of Yuanshuo, Ten Yang Cave Heaven, Yang City, Si Nong Office, Drill Ground.

"You are the worst batch of Si Nong I have ever led!" Lu Bang sneered at the crowd below. "【Impossible Training】 has been going on for a month, yet you haven't even had a single decent counterattack!"

"See the martial artist phalanx in the southwest?"

"There are only three thousand people there! And you have ten thousand!"

"Just like you, they are also reserves, and their highest cultivation will not exceed the Eighth Rank."

"Now, these three thousand people are your enemies."

"Facing the enemy, you only know how to run; what kind of Military Si Nong are you?"

"The Great Si Nong Zhao Xing back then almost overturned the martial artist phalanx!"

"Do you know the Heroic King 'Xia Jing'? He is brave enough, right? But back then, he was still beaten to the ground by the Si Nong, right on this piece of land under your feet!"

"【Impossible Training】 has three more sessions before graduation. I hope you don't graduate with the title of the worst batch!" Lu Bang swept coldly over the reserve Military Si Nong below. "Let those martial artists see your fighting spirit!"

Stimulated by the Great Nong Zheng Lu Bang, the reserve Military Si Nong below immediately started howling.

The Great Nong Zheng Lu Bang was a high official of the Third Rank. He didn't actually train people much anymore, but in the last two years, Lu Bang had become active and would personally come to guide the training.

Facing such a big shot's inspection, the reserve Military Si Nong were naturally very excited, but they didn't expect Lu Bang to give such an evaluation. Who could take that?

Thus, the way they looked at the martial artist phalanx opposite them changed.

The reserve martial artist phalanx at this time, besides the original training martial master Fang Fang Jie, also had a few people wearing full armor.

"I am the Heroic King Xia Jing! Also a reserve martial artist of the 'Black Armor Army' in the 16th year of Jingxin!"

"See the ten thousand Si Nong opposite?"

"Great Nong Zheng Lu Bang is right; this king was indeed beaten by the Great Si Nong, but that time, the Si Nong team the Great Si Nong was in didn't win against us martial artists either!"

Xia Jing looked at the martial artist phalanx below: "Since the Ten Yang Cave Heaven was stationed, there has never been a record of martial artists being overturned by the Si Nong profession! There wasn't one before the reconstruction, and there isn't one after!"

"Of course, you can try to create this record, if you are willing to be stepped on by that group of Si Nong and eat dust."

The instructor Liao Rulong shouted loudly: "Tell the Heroic King, are you willing to become such a disgrace?"

"Not willing!"

"Not willing!"

"Not willing!"

The three thousand reserve martial artists roared, beating their chests.

Liao Rulong pointed his long sword at the Si Nong phalanx: "Then crush them for me!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

…………

When the two phalanxes below were in a mess and started a fierce hand-to-hand fight, Xia Jing, Liao Rulong, Lu Bang, Zhao Zheng, Long Xiao, and others gathered in the building ship in the sky.

The current Xia Jing not only inherited his father's Heroic Marquis title but also raised it by one level, becoming a Commandery Prince.

When Xia Jing entered the Divine Martial Academy, he apprenticed to Situ Wu, receiving guidance from this number one Qi-cultivating martial artist in the world for twelve years. Later, he participated in the Great War of the Western Extreme State and became the Vice Dean of the Qi-cultivating Branch of the Divine Martial Academy.

On this ship, Xia Jing had the highest title.

His official position was also the largest; he was currently the Left Army Chancellor of the "Great Source Military District" of Pinghai State, the first subordinate official of the Prefecture Commandant.

His direct superior above him was "Ye Ye Yukong". There were not many people who could manage Xia Jing; besides Ye Ye Yukong, only Zhao Xing and the Luo Hou Wang had direct military jurisdiction over him.

Because the Great Source Prefecture was Zhao Xing's fief, and the Luo Hou Wang was the Grand Marshal, also the supreme commander of the Military Realm.

The Middle Army Chancellor was Long Xiao. Because Long Xiao hadn't had any opportunities in the East Sea these years—he didn't even have the chance to participate in the Great War of the Western Extreme—he was still a First-Class Marquis and had to be ranked behind Xia Jing.

"The imperial court divided Pinghai State into forty-six military districts; it is obvious that they are going to fight." Xia Jing looked at the map, feeling a bit melancholy: "There are too many experts in the Great Zhou now. If it were in the Jingxin years, I would at least be a Governing Prince of the Military Realm, but now I still have to listen to other people's orders."

"Xia Jing, just be content." Long Xiao sneered: "In the Great Source Prefecture Military District, besides Ye Ye Yukong, only Zhao Xing and the Luo Hou Wang's supreme orders can manage you."

"One is the Prince of Zhao, the highest military officer of the fief, and the other is the Grand Marshal, the highest military officer of the country. They won't give you any orders at all in normal times, so what are you dissatisfied with?"

"I was conferred the title of Wu Hou earlier than you, and I entered the Third Rank Origin Soul Realm earlier than you, but now I am still a Marquis and have to listen to your command as a heretic. Where can I go to reason?"

"You're saying all this just to show off in front of old brothers, right? Who doesn't know who!"

"Audacious!" Xia Jing was exposed and pretended to be angry, scolding Long Xiao, then he said to Liao Rulong beside him: "Marquis of Divine Might, quickly take this person out and behead him."

Liao Rulong laughed: "Army Chancellor, I am only a main general of a partial army. Asking me to behead a Middle Army Chancellor is not as good as asking me to go behead the Witch Moon God."

"Hahahaha~" Lu Bang laughed loudly, and even Zhao Zheng was infected by the atmosphere.

Just then, someone lifted the curtain and came in.

"Xia Jing, I heard you want to behead my in-law? You have quite the official authority!"

Everyone turned to look.

"Old Chen!" Long Xiao was overjoyed.

Chen Shijie served as the Right Army Chancellor of the Great Source Prefecture Military District.

From the title, his title was lower, only a Second-Class Marquis.

But he was one of the Vice Deans of the Earth Palace Branch of the Kunyuan Academy. In addition, this Right Army Chancellor, besides being ready to fight at any time, also served as the Transport Commissioner of the two prefectures, responsible for the overall planning and transportation of military supplies for the Nine Heavens Response Prefecture—Great Source Prefecture.

The Left and Middle Army Chancellors, and the various armies below, all had to apply to Chen Shijie for military supplies. Even the Prefecture Commandant Ye Ye Yukong had to treat Chen Shijie with respect, because some military supplies were only in the state treasury, and if one wanted good stuff, one had to fight for it through Chen Shijie!

"Lord Chen, spare my life, please take a seat!" Xia Jing bowed deliberately.

"Hahahaha~" Another burst of laughter in the hall.

"Old Chen, I didn't expect you to be this Right Army Chancellor. I'm relieved now that you're here!" Xia Jing laughed.

"As you said, there are too many experts in the Great Zhou." Chen Shijie sighed: "We people can only squeeze into this military district of Zhao Xing's fief to do things."

Pinghai State had forty-six military districts, and there were only a little over a hundred positions that could be called holding great power.

After that were the main generals of each army. For example, Liao Rulong was the main general of the Divine Might Army, but that only counted as a partial army. If there was a real war, it would be very difficult to get combat missions. There were at least a hundred armies waiting in line ahead of them!

So the main general of a partial army could only be considered a second-rate position.

Of course, the main generals of the Ten Forbidden Armies were another matter; they still had a lot of say.

Xia Jing, Chen Shijie, Long Xiao, Zhao Zheng, and Liao Rulong could only exert their influence here in the Great Source Prefecture.

Lu Bang was now just the Great Nong Zheng of Ten Yang Cave Heaven, responsible for training new soldiers of low rank, so he was even further down the list; he was just here to meet old friends.

"Jingong, where did you come from to take office?" Lu Bang asked. He hadn't taught Chen Shijie, and in terms of official position and strength, he was even smaller than Chen Shijie.

But Chen Shijie was very respectful to Lu Bang: "Lord Lu, I set off from the Kunyuan Academy in Daoyuan State, first went to Pinghai State City to report, and then came here to take office."

"So that's how it is."

Xia Jing asked with concern: "Old Chen, you came from the State City. Is there any definite news on when the fighting will start? When will the Barbarian Conquest Merit List be released?"

Pinghai State didn't have a State City originally, but it was built in the 50th year of Yuanshuo. Preparations for war had started since the origin energy tide was confirmed, but only a framework had been set up at that time.

Now it was the 96th year of Yuanshuo, and they had started mobilizing troops and sending specific officials to their posts.

Everyone knew that the Great War of Conquering the Barbarians was about to start, but the official order hadn't been issued yet. Xia Jing couldn't guess when, as the imperial court's mouth was too tight.

"At most three years, at the fastest, it could be launched at any time." Chen Shijie said.

Xia Jing nodded. The Military Si Nong were all in place, so it was indeed not far from fighting.

"Lord Chen, can we move first?" Zhao Zheng and Liao Rulong looked at each other and interjected during the gap.

The main general of the Divine Might Army, this partial army, was handed over to Long Xiao, this Middle Army Chancellor, to be responsible for. He had over a hundred armies under his command, among which the Divine Might Army could be considered one of the main armies.

Of course, wanting to move was simple; Long Xiao just had to give an order, but it wouldn't work without military supplies.

"Where do you want to move to?" Chen Shijie looked at Zhao Zheng. Now Liao Rulong was the main general of the Divine Might Army, but in reality, it was Zhao Zheng who was making the decisions. Because Zhao Zheng's strength and military talent exceeded Liao Rulong's.

It was just that Liao Rulong didn't make any mistakes, and Zhao Zheng didn't have the opportunity to be promoted, so this pattern had formed.

Clatter~ Zhao Zheng unfolded a military map and pointed to a spot in the center of the Great River: "Not far. We just want to adjust the military activity area of the Divine Might Army to the 19th to 25th state-center islands in the northern section of the Canglan River near the Response Prefecture."

Chen Shijie and Xia Jing looked at it and immediately laughed.

This clever ghost Zhao Zheng.

"Saying it's not far, it's indeed not far."

"But once the war starts, these sandbars in the river belong to the flexible combat area."

"Once the river water rushes, the army will drift with the waves, and you will immediately have a reason to rush to the front to grab merit."

Xia Jing laughed.

"General, my defense area was attacked by the enemy and is gone; breaking out is very reasonable, right?"

"Where is not breaking out?"

"Hiding the combat intent from the military officer, you haven't done this less, have you?" Chen Shijie asked with a smile.

"No, absolutely not!" Zhao Zheng said righteously: "Our Divine Might Army absolutely obeys the command of the superior."

"Look." Xia Jing pointed at Zhao Zheng: "Talking nonsense with a straight face without even blinking, you have quite the style of your elder brother."

"Hahahaha~" Long Xiao and the others laughed again.

Zhao Zheng scratched his head shyly.

"Long Xiao is your superior. If he agrees to your adjustment, then adjust. Come to collect military supplies in three days." Chen Shijie said.

Then he looked at Liao Rulong and Long Xiao and transmitted his voice: "Don't take too many risks. Zhao Xing only has this one younger brother."

"Understood." Long Xiao and Liao Rulong nodded.

If Zhao Chuanzong could hear this, he would cry to death in the toilet.

Because he separated from the family very early and had no presence, and later changed his name and went to the army as a bitter soldier, Old Chen and Long Xiao thought Zhao Chuanzong was dead.

But then again, even if Zhao Chuanzong was still alive, he couldn't compare to Zhao Zheng's status.

"I plan to transfer Wang Ji and Han Bing into the Great Source Military District."

"Lu Yuanwei is also waiting for transfer. I plan to ask for him."

"Old Chen, I think there is a guy who is not bad, but it is troublesome to transfer from the East Sea Army. I plan to let him go through the transport commissioner channel of Chongming-Long Yuan-Tianhe-Mingyue-Anping-Great Source Prefecture, and finally transfer to a martial general. Do you think it will work?"

"As long as you can transfer to Mingyue Prefecture, it won't be a big problem. But what kind of person is worth you transferring across more than thirty military districts in the southeast?"

"A sword cultivator named Yun Yi; his swordsmanship is quite good."

"Oh? Where have I heard this name? Did Zhao Xing mention it before?"

"In the 【Arena】 martial artist area of Pinghai State, Yun Yi's combat record has climbed to the ninth place, one of the top ten sword immortals of Pinghai State."

"Why did I suddenly find that many people I saved in the late Jingxin years have become high officials? In the last two years, the karma induction has been fierce."

"I have the same feeling."

"Did Zhao Xing see today hundreds of years ago?"

"Truly a monster!"

…………

In the 95th year of Yuanshuo, Yun Tiandao came out; not many people knew about this.

In the second year after he came out, the Great Zhou's preparation speed significantly increased.

Yun Tiandao was not a subject of the Great Zhou, so the Wu Di did not give him an official position; Yun Tiandao just gave ideas behind Zhao Xing's back.

Zhao Xing had a forward-looking vision and far-reaching foresight, but as the Great Si Nong to fight the Southern Barbarian War and mobilize the power of the whole country, it was his first time. Yun Tiandao, however, had successful experience.

The two working together was like a tiger with wings.

Ji Che's mouth couldn't close from laughing. Although Yun Tiandao didn't join the Great Zhou, the Great Zhou's luck clearly rose by a large margin.

Zhao Xing also felt this change. In his previous life, after Yun Tiandao was released, he directly added many buffs to the dynasty.

For example:

【Bountiful Harvest (Yun Tiandao version): The yield of all food crops above the Seventh Rank in the country increases by 500%.】

Because Yun Tiandao mastered multiple Ultimate Laws of the Self-School (he only created one, and cultivated it to perfection, but he had learned many Ultimate Laws originally.)

【Favorable Weather (Yun Tiandao version): Under the origin energy tide, the probability of all small natural disasters in the country decreases by 90%, medium natural disasters by 50%, and large natural disasters by 30%. There is a certain probability of complete immunity to natural disasters.】

Yun Tiandao had two Minor Divine Abilities, one for Wind and one for Cloud.

Wherever he was, that place would naturally have such an aura.

【Internal Affairs Enhancement (Yun Tiandao version): The yield of all ores and timber increases by 500%, agricultural tax increases by 100%, increasing year by year. Efficiency of equalization increases by 100%, and the administrative efficiency of Si Nong officials increases by 200%.】

Yun Tiandao's experience was so rich, spanning two dynasties, and he could always find new angles to make money.

……

"Can you stop looking at me like that?" Yun Tiandao put down the official document, his mouth twitching: "I always feel your gaze on me is very strange."

"Brother Yun, don't be excited."

"I am not excited."

"Not excited, then why are you clenching your fists? You don't need to clench your fists to read official documents."

"Speak if you have something to say."

Yun Tiandao took a deep breath.

A long time ago, he felt that his Dao heart had no room for further progress.

However, Zhao Xing's appearance made him realize that his Dao heart was not perfect enough.

"Look at this project, is it reasonable?" Zhao Xing started talking about official business and handed over a piece of information.

"Ancient Earth Path? Let me see."

Talking about government affairs, Yun Tiandao immediately entered the state.

He had to be careful; he had to leave the Profound Yellow World within 120 years, otherwise he would definitely die.

Anyone would be careful!

"The first phase of the Barbarian Conquest Ancient Path project was completed in the 75th year of Yuanshuo, but it was not connected and has not been put into use."

"In the second phase, I plan to expand to the surroundings based on the ancient path nodes built in the first phase, increasing the three ancient paths in the original plan to eighteen."

"But I think this plan still has room for improvement." Zhao Xing introduced.

What he showed Yun Tiandao was the secret ancient path dug by the Earthly Advantage School towards the Southern Barbarians.

The Kunyuan Hoe had also been further strengthened after the origin energy tide arrived.

Originally, it was only a Top-Grade Star Dao Weapon, but later it reached the Ultimate Grade level.

Zhao Xing discovered that it even had a trend of developing towards a World Weapon.

Because the Kunyuan Hoe was a growth-type Divine Weapon!

It was precisely because of this that it was considered a classic artifact.

"Barbarian Conquest Ancient Path... do you want to use it in Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication?"

"Brother Yun is sharp; you saw my intention at a glance." Zhao Xing praised. "I thought about it this way: Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication will reduce all mechanism arrays and life entering its range to a fixed low level."

"But, it will not change the terrain."

"We dig the ancient path in advance, which can open up an underground battlefield. The space underground is much more complex than the surface. In this way, we can greatly limit the role of cultivators in the early stages of the war."

"Fighting tunnel warfare, we can also turn the away game into a home game..."

Listening to Zhao Xing's endless narration, Yun Tiandao was also very surprised.

"How did you think of this?"

Yun Tiandao hadn't fought such a war, and the Xia Dynasty didn't have a Kunyuan Hoe at the time.

Although there was use of earth veins, they never thought of using it in Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication.

"How is the feasibility?" Zhao Xing asked.

"I have a few questions." Yun Tiandao entered the state, "Have these tunnels of yours been discovered by the Baboke insects of the Ka God race?"

"No." Zhao Xing shook his head: "The depth the Kunyuan Hoe can dig is still above the ability of the Baboke insects. Now the Barbarian Conquest Ancient Path has not passed the Yin-Yin Mountain, so the Yan-Guang Royal Court cannot discover it for the time being."

"Too deep." Yun Tiandao shook his head: "To avoid the exploration of insects, the shallowest part of the tunnel is more than thirty thousand meters deep."

"Although the tunnel will not be affected, the earth veins will be affected. The original way of using water-line earth veins for gushing and quickly reaching the surface cannot be used in the area of Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication; coming up will be a big trouble."

"Mechanism arrays fail, so these lifting channels of yours can only rely on the most primitive manpower."

"Unless you want to use it as an underground city for shelter, or build underground supply cities one by one."

"But in this way, the supply consumption will be too great."

"The cost-performance ratio is not high." Zhao Xing nodded: "Comparing the existing engineering volume with the utilization rate at that time, it is a losing business. But consuming supplies is better than consuming human lives."

"War is about losing money, regardless of the cost."

Yun Tiandao nodded. This Great Si Nong Zhao Xing was different from what he imagined, and there were many places that made him admire him.

Setting aside these whimsical ideas, his values were very much to his taste. Now Yun Tiandao slowly began to believe that he could be friends with him in the future.

Next, Yun Tiandao asked a few more questions, and the two began to improve and supplement the settings of 【Tunnel Warfare】 and 【Underground Supply City】.

"In that great war of the Xia Dynasty, the range of Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication was north to Yin-Yin Mountain, south to Four Pillars Mountain, west to Extreme Flame Desert, and east to Nine Gully Lake."

"Between north and south, the tributaries and main veins of the Canglan River crisscrossed, forming natural moats. If we can send some supplies in advance within the range of Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication and build some defensive works that can be used inside, the difficulty will be reduced a lot."

The entire Barbarian Conquest Great War, what Yun Tiandao and Zhao Xing were most concerned about was the last step, the special area formed by Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication.

The advancement in the early and middle stages was not worth paying attention to. For the Great Zhou's strength, this was something they could handle easily.

"Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication will have three stages. At that time..." Yun stopped suddenly. "Why don't you continue?" Zhao Xing asked, seeing him pause for a long time.

"It's nothing, let's continue to the next discussion." Yun Tiandao changed the subject again.

"……"

He finally understood the feeling Yun Tiandao had at the time. This guy didn't finish the second half of the sentence until the discussion the next day!

"I'm really convinced by you, you old fox." Zhao Xing cursed in his heart.

…………

In the 96th year of Yuanshuo, one day.

Zhao Xing was approving an application for funds.

"Great Si Nong, where is this Xuanfei Army's money spent?" Meng Kun looked at the official document and asked curiously. "Is it the Yu Qing Office? The intelligence department?"

"Hmm." Zhao Xing nodded.

"Since when does the Yu Qing Office have a specialized army?" Meng Kun was a bit puzzled.

"It was quite early, established in the 50th year of Yushou." Zhao Xing said. "They are specifically responsible for war propaganda."

While looking one by one/p>

After Zhao Xing returned from Jixi Road, he specifically sent clones to the Sect Realm to carry out sabotage.

He sniped at those sect members who wanted to advance during the origin energy tide.

At that time, he had cooperated with the Qitian Hall of the Heavenly Realm and had been causing trouble outside for nearly a hundred years.

To cooperate with Zhao Xing, the Wu Di specifically formed a "Xuanfei Army".

Actually, this army didn't operate in the Sect Realm, but in the areas of the Four Royal Courts of the Southern Barbarians.

Its main role was to promote the ascension plan.

The struggle between Wu and Huang was a struggle of survival concepts.

In order to reduce the resistance encountered when entering the Southern Barbarians, the Xuanfei Army publicized the benefits of ascension on a large scale.

They were mainly led by strategists, with Ritual Cultivators as the persons in charge of the Xuanfei Army.

First, use the Forget-Sorrow Law to break the brainwashing of the Witch Moon God on them, and then conduct Great Zhou's royal education on the Southern Barbarian people.

The Ritual Cultivators of the Xuanfei Army were very wild outside.

What kind of Intelligence-Reducing Law, Alienation Law were just basic operations... even in order to get things done, some Ritual Cultivators simply didn't use the "Thousand Machine Transformation" set to disguise themselves, but asked the Hou Hou Bian Academy to perform a "transformation", becoming Barbarian people very simply.

"The Xuanfei Army's propaganda has a great effect." Meng Kun looked at the secret letter, "Actually incited so many people, even the royal bloodline of the Golden Feather Royal Court?"

"Also spent a lot of money." Zhao Xing said, "The expenses of the Xuanfei Army are comparable to the Xuanming Army, which ranks eighth among the Ten Forbidden Armies."

"If they don't show us results and get a few high-level traitors, how can we keep approving money for them?"

Speaking of traitors, Zhao Xing couldn't help but think of the National Teacher Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable of the Golden Feather Royal Court.

"The war will start next year; I hope Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable is ready." Zhao Xing thought secretly, "I hope he can save me some effort."

"And the Chen Xuan Heaven Divine Sect led by the Fog Walker; after the Dao Discussion Assembly, he went to the Yan-Guang Royal Court to be the National Teacher."

The Chen Xuan Heaven Divine Sect was originally a guest of honor of the Golden Feather Royal Court, and the Chen Xuan Heaven Divine Venerable was also one of the three great National Teachers.

However, Purple Bone had already been reused in the Golden Feather Royal Court, so the Fog Walker didn't need to stay in the Golden Feather Royal Court.

After the Dao Discussion Assembly, Zhao Xing let the Fog Walker find an opportunity to have a conflict with Purple Bone.

And taking advantage of the awakening of the ancestors of the Chen Xuan Heaven Divine Sect, he took the opportunity to withdraw most of the manpower, material resources, and financial resources in the Golden Feather Royal Court and went to the Yan-Guang Royal Court.

Increased the layout in the Yan-Guang Royal Court.

"If it weren't for him, I really wouldn't dare to dig the tunnels so close." Zhao Xing thought secretly.

Ji Che establishing the Dao had one benefit: the Witch Moon God's deduction and prediction were completely useless.

Of course, Ji Che couldn't predict either.

The two just happened to cancel each other out in fate deduction, no longer needing the help of Ji Si + Star Luck Strategy.

Ji Si was demoted to the Rule Realm and could display her talents, fighting against the Ten Heavenly Witches. With the help of Yun Tiandao, who understood a Minor Divine Ability of Fate.

Many plans became logical.

"The war starts next year; I should also send some clones to Pinghai State."

…………

In the 97th year of Yuanshuo, at an important meeting before the Great Zhou launched the war.

"Your Majesty, this subject estimates that the Barbarian Conquest Great War is divided into four stages."

The Luo Hou Wang reported to Ji Che at the Six Ministries meeting.

"The first stage, from north to south, with the Nine Heavens Response Prefecture as the horizontal base point, the front line is 1.6 million miles long, forty-six military districts, launched simultaneously, east to the East Sea, west to the West Cliff Mountain."

"Building cities, erecting monuments, building temples, and cultivating the territory won are the primary goals, and killing the enemy's low- and middle-end forces is the secondary goal."

"This subject will restrain each army and control the speed of advancement."

"Until the Yin-Yin Mountain, estimated to be about eight years."

The Luo Hou Wang stated his strategic plan, and everyone present firmly believed that the Luo Hou Wang could achieve this.

"Thanks to our dynasty's solid logistical foundation, the Great Zhou has the strength to control the rhythm of the war at this time. Unless the Witch Moon God does not intend to deploy Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication and directly has a great decisive battle in the territory outside the Yin-Yin Mountain, that is actually what the Great Zhou hopes for."

The probability is very small; the Witch Moon God cannot be stupid enough to have a great decisive battle north of the Yin-Yin Mountain, unless he is stupid enough to think he can win by attacking instead of defending.

"The second stage."

"The army uses the Yin-Yin Mountain as a reference, and the forty-six military districts begin a deep encirclement strategy against the Southern Barbarians."

"The west side deploys defenses along the lines of 'Demon God Valley', 'Ten Thousand Beast Forest', 'Broken Soul Cliff', 'Mausoleum Battlefield', 'Thunder Mountain Range', 'Polar Battlefield', 'Stone Forest', 'Nether Valley'."

"The north side deploys defenses along the lines of 'Cangfeng Plain', 'North Sha Abyss', 'Star Valley', 'Mist Swamp', 'Spiritual Jade Mine', 'Heavenly Moat Pass', 'Flying Cloud Cliff', etc."

"The east side deploys defenses along the lines of 'Boundless Desert', 'Soul-Eating Valley', 'Subduing Dragon Mountain', 'Flame Demon Cave', 'Ice Wind Mausoleum', 'Poison Barrier Forest', 'Green Rock Ancient Battlefield', 'Snow Pine Valley', etc."

"Attacking fiercely from three sides, opening three high-rank battlefields, driving the Four Royal Courts of the Southern Barbarians to the hinterland of the Southern Barbarians."

"The Ten Forbidden Armies rush straight to the Holy Mountain at the end of the world from the southwest and southeast sides."

"This plan will last for eight to sixteen years."

"If the second stage of the strategy is completed, the Witch Moon God's Four Royal Courts and the Alliance of Sects will have only two choices."

"Either let our army climb the mountain, or deploy Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication."

Climbing the mountain naturally goes without saying; the possibility is very small, unless the Witch Moon God changes his nature and lets the Great Zhou Dynasty master the largest ascension channel of the Profound Yellow World, and hands over the spiritual energy in his hands.

The Luo Hou Wang scanned Zhao Xing and Yun Tiandao behind him, then said: "This subject basically does not consider the first point, because the first point does not need any consideration; that is already victory."

"Therefore, the military strategy for the third stage is prepared according to the Witch Moon God of the Southern Barbarians deploying Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication."

"Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication is a legendary method. This subject's understanding of it is not as clear as the Great Si Nong's, so I ask the Great Si Nong to explain it first."

Zhao Xing, hearing this, glanced at the ministers of the Six Ministries and immediately spoke.

"This subject and a group of Si Nong have speculated and studied for a long time and believe that 【Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication】 is a controllable Hou Hou Bian divine ability with a super large range, long duration, including the twenty-four solar terms and seventy-two phenological responses."

"It includes life Hou Hou Bian and non-life Hou Hou Bian."

"Even a martial artist in the Establishing the Dao Realm, possessing a powerful physical body, will 'transform' into an ordinary person's body upon entering the range of Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication, and their seven souls and three spirits will be no different from an ordinary person who has not entered the ranked realm."

"Once they leave, they will return to normal; this is the lifting of Hou Hou Bian."

"Spells cannot be cast, and the mechanism arrays relying on them will also fail."

"High-level material materials will be reduced to low-level; this is the change control of phenology. Ancient methods have 'turning stone into gold'; in Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication, it is the opposite: turning gold into stone. This makes even the hardest weapons degenerate into non-ranked ones."

Zhao Xing's words gave many people a deeper understanding of 【Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication】. Facing such a perverted spell, they could only fight with the most primitive methods. It was truly worthy of the name of a Great Divine Ability. It blocked generation after generation of Luck Dynasties, causing so many dynasties to hatefully turn into dust in history.

"The smaller the range of Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication, the earlier it is forced out, and the more time there is for the Great Zhou's ascension preparations."

"The Luo Hou Wang's strategy: the first stage is eight years, the second stage is at most sixteen years, and the third stage, Absolute Heaven and Earth Communication, is expected to be no more than thirty years."

In the 98th year of Yuanshuo, Spring Equinox, Heavenly Earth Temple, the most grand sacrifice of the Great Zhou.

"Foreign remnants, sacrificing evil gods; confusing people's hearts, disrupting discipline and order; invading my territory, enslaving my people, evil virtues continue, destroying everything for generations..."

"If we don't fight, we won't be able to show the country's prestige!"

Ji Che offered incense before the Heavenly Earth Altar, his voice like a rolling torrent, spreading to the entire Fengdu, then to Tianyong State, and... the entire nineteen states!

"I follow the Heavenly Dao, wanting to ascend with the whole country, wishing everyone in the world to be like a dragon, living forever."

"The evil god Witch Moon goes against the sky, fooling all living beings, imprisoning wisdom."

"The Southern Barbarian tribes, the average lifespan is no more than eighty years."

"The evil god Witch Moon, his lifespan has exceeded 108,563 years."

"The Moon Shaman Evil God has lived for over 108,563 years."

"Causing trillions of living beings to suffer from illness, suffer from old age, and be bound by death. All because of the disaster of the evil god Witch Moon!"

……

"The ancient divine dynasty, after ascension, received the reward of the Heavenly Dao, without illness or disaster, living forever."

"The Great Zhou established temples to spread all laws, set up the three divisions of Fortune, Salary, and Longevity, rested with the people, blessed trillions of subjects."

"The power of the Great Zhou should not be like this, all because of the obstruction of the Witch Moon God..."

Zhao Xing, in the front row of the ministers, listened to Ji Che's manifesto and almost laughed out loud.

Ji Che not only labeled the Witch Moon God as an evil god but also counted the Witch Moon God's crimes from various angles.

Making people of all classes feel that the Witch Moon God was rotten to the core.

Those who wanted to protect their homes and defend their country felt that the Witch Moon God invaded their homes.

Those who wanted to live forever and ascend felt that the Witch Moon God blocked their ascension. 【371】 Even birth, aging, sickness, and death, this common sense of the Heavenly Dao, was the Witch Moon God's fault! 【372】 Ji Che focused on explaining this point, and he said it very popularly: 【373】 People shouldn't have been sick, shouldn't have aged, and shouldn't have died. This is something the ancient divine dynasty proved! 【374】 As long as you ascend, these things will be solved. You will no longer be sick, no longer age, and even not die! 【375】 The temples I established, the three divisions of Fortune, Salary, and Longevity, have already proven this. 【376】 I could have done better, it's just that the Witch Moon God, this bad seed, is blocking it, otherwise I would have taken you to ascend long ago! 【377】 Subjects of the Great Zhou, do you think this Witch Moon God and his Southern Barbarian Royal Court accomplices are rotten to the core? 【378】 …… 【379】 "I, following the mandate of heaven, announce to the sky and tell the earth." 【380】 "For the sake of all people, starting today, I will lead the ministers to conquer the foreign lands, and I will definitely eradicate the monsters! Kill the evil god!" 【381】 "The War of Conquering the Barbarians, until death!" 【382】 The Wu Di's voice echoed between heaven and earth, as if making a great wish. 【383】 This was indeed his wish to establish the Dao. In his previous life, the Wu Di fought until the end of his life from the beginning of the Barbarian Conquest Great War, and the war almost never stopped. 【384】 "This time, the Wu Di's conquest of the barbarians is ahead of schedule, and the situation is completely different." 【385】 "With my help, the Great Zhou has the Dragon Court Ancient Land, the unification of the three schools of Si Nong, the inheritance of Qing Qing Yu Zi and the three, the early release of Yun Tiandao, a Liu Liu Tianning who is not crazy, the Chen Xuan Heaven Divine Sect that has surrendered, more affiliated countries and tribes, and a Purple Dragon God who died in the Southern Barbarians..." 【386】 Zhao Xing looked at the distant south, as if he saw the Holy Mountain connecting heaven and earth, and saw that white robe. 【387】 "Witch Moon God, go eat shit!" 【388】 ………… 【389】 After the Spring Equinox of the 98th year of Yuanshuo, the Wu Di changed the year name to "Yuanding", implying the stabilization of the whole world. 【390】 In the spring of the same year, the army set off from Pinghai State, and the total number of mobilized troops reached 50 million. 【391】 The conquest of the barbarians in the Wu Di period exceeded the peak number of people in the Barbarian Conquest Great War in the Jing Emperor period from the very beginning! 【392】 Along the Canglan River, countless building ships, battle formations, and flying boats crossed the Canglan River together. 【393】 The Barbarian Conquest Great War officially began. 【394】 In the early stages of the Barbarian Conquest Great War, the Wu Di almost replicated his father's fighting style, and the situation was similar to the Barbarian Conquest Great War in the Jingxin years. 【395】 Both were like cutting through rotten wood, with reports of victory one after another. 【396】 The only difference was that the speed of building cities, erecting monuments, and building temples in the Jing Emperor period was slower than in the Wu Di period, and the efficiency was not on the same level. 【397】 The operation of military supplies was also completely different. 【398】 In the Jing Emperor period, the army was fast, but what they fought down were raw lands, and the conversion efficiency of mature lands was relatively slow. 【399】 Zhao Xing had seen many cities when he was the Equalization Order, where the temples hadn't even been built, and they were just used as strongholds. 【400】 In this way, they had to divide troops to guard the cities, and they couldn't necessarily guard them. 【401】 But after Zhao Xing became the Great Si Nong, the Great Zhou's strength was completely different. 【402】 The precious materials cultivated by the Si Nong increased, the planting materials brought from the Dragon Court increased, and the number of derivative species also increased significantly. 【403】 In the Jing Emperor period, there would be shortages of certain materials, and they needed to temporarily concentrate the Si Nong's planting ability to rush to plant certain materials. 【404】 But now, there was no need for this at all. 【405】 The Si Nong's production materials increased, the martial artists ate better, and the mechanism masters' manufacturing ability also grew significantly, and productivity simply jumped. 【406】 Just in terms of logistics, there was absolutely no Great Si Nong who could do better than Zhao Xing. 【407】 …… 【408】 Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was the 8th year of Yuanding. 【409】 The Barbarian Conquest Great War had already been going on for eight years. 【410】 As planned by the Luo Hou Wang, he completed the first stage of the strategy. 【411】 The Great Zhou's army had already reached the Yin-Yin Mountain. 【412】 The Luo Hou Wang began to deliberately lose battles, wanting to lure the Four Royal Courts into a decisive battle outside the Yin-Yin Mountain, but such a plan was not successful. After a slight probe, the Luo Hou Wang decided to proceed to the second stage. 【413】 Forty-six military districts began to cross the Yin-Yin Mountain, using this as a base point, and began to carry out a deep encirclement strategy against the Southern Barbarians, creating conditions for the Ten Forbidden Armies in the south to go around the back. 【414】 In the second stage, the Southern Barbarians' resistance increased significantly. The war entered the high-rank level, and casualties began to intensify. 【415】 The Four Royal Courts of the Southern Barbarians possessed powerful combat power. In the origin energy tide, they gained huge benefits, plus the help of top experts from the Alliance of Sects. The Great Zhou wanted to complete the encirclement strategy without paying heavy casualties, and wanted to shorten the time as much as possible, which was very difficult to do. 【416】 Ultimately, it was because Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable, this traitor, had created many powerful divine weapons, mechanism arrays, armor puppets, and large warships for the Southern Barbarians. 【417】 It was precisely because Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable obtained Puta's inheritance that the Southern Barbarians and the Sect Alliance Army could fight back and forth with the Great Zhou in the second stage. 【418】 Thus, in the third year of the second stage of the war, the Luo Hou Wang found Zhao Xing. 【419】 "Zhao Xing, it's time." The Luo Hou Wang held a battle report and came to the Si Nong Hall. "You can't let Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable continue to pretend anymore. He has created many powerful divine weapon mechanisms and defensive arrays for the Southern Barbarians these years." 【420】 "If he continues to lurk, it will be very difficult for us to complete the second stage of the strategic purpose in eight to sixteen years, and the casualties will also be very heavy." 【421】 Zhao Xing glanced at the battle report and nodded: "It's about time. At this time, the Southern Barbarians and the Sect Alliance Army have already invested a large amount of combat power into the battlefield, and even if they want to withdraw, they can't withdraw for a while." 【422】 Not letting Purple Bone jump ship at the first time was mainly because they hadn't invested military costs yet. If he jumped ship at the beginning, the effect would definitely not be as good as dragging the Southern Barbarians' high-end combat power into the quagmire of war and then stabbing them in the back. 【423】 Now that the war had reached the third year of the second stage, the timing was about right, and he could let Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable exert his role. 【424】 Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable could only contact Zhao Xing, and it was a single-line contact, so the Luo Hou Wang could only find Zhao Xing to discuss it. 【425】 "I will go to activate the single-line contact with him now." Zhao Xing said. 【426】 "If it's not convenient for him, he can also reveal a few important checkpoints first; it doesn't have to be all revealed at once." The Luo Hou Wang looked forward to it: "As long as I have the method to break the arrays of the eight important checkpoints I need, it will be enough to complete the second stage of the strategy." 【427】 "It's better to let him cooperate fully." Zhao Xing laughed: "Otherwise, how can it match your combat philosophy of fierce attack." 【428】 "Good, then I will wait for your news." The Luo Hou Wang's figure disappeared in place. 【429】 Seeing Zhao Xing start to contact Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable, Yun Tiandao, who was on the side, was very surprised: "You two seem to be talking about Puta's inheritor?" 【430】 "Yes." Zhao Xing nodded. Yun Tiandao had seen Qing Qing Yu Zi, so of course he knew about Puta and Fairy Su. He also knew that Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable was the final winner in the mechanism inheritance. 【431】 But Yun Tiandao didn't know more detailed inheritance rules. Hearing the conversation between Zhao Xing and the Luo Hou Wang, he was shocked: "If I remember correctly, Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable, who mastered Puta's inheritance, is the National Teacher of the Golden Feather Royal Court, right?" 【432】 "Not bad. In the last two years, he was promoted and is now the National Teacher of the entire Southern Barbarians." 【433】 "He is hailed as the strongest mechanism master of the generation?" 【434】 "Hmm." 【435】 "He also controls all the mechanism heavy weapons, military defense layouts, and mechanism arrays of the Southern Barbarians?" 【436】 "Yes, the four-sided defense lines were all built by him." Zhao Xing answered while searching. "The mechanism puppet 'Purple God Series' created by Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable has played a major role in these three years. It can be controlled by one person to control a puppet army of ten thousand, breaking the previous cognition that mechanism masters could only control a small number of powerful puppets, and raising this upper limit to over ten thousand." 【437】 "He is the strongest mechanism master, so of course he is responsible for the defense arrays of the entire army." 【438】 "Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable has been treated like a savior by the Southern Barbarians these years. He, is actually your person?" Yun Tiandao's expression was extremely strange. 【439】 Zhao Xing didn't answer this time, just smiled and shook the treasure in his hand that looked like a glow stick. 【440】 "Hum~" It emitted a faint purple light, and soon a blurred face appeared in front of them. 【441】 Before the body was fully formed, the skull face spoke first. 【442】 "Hey, Big Brother, is that you?" 【443】 "It's me." Zhao Xing nodded, "Little Brother Purple Bone, how are you now? Is it convenient to talk for a long time?" 【444】 "Of course." Purple Bone Heavenly Venerable nodded confidently: "I am now the most powerful person in the entire Southern Barbarians; no one dares, and no one can monitor me, not even the Witch Moon God!" 【445】 Yun Tiandao: "……" 【446】 Hearing Purple Bone's excited voice, Yun Tiandao even felt a bit of sympathy for the Southern Barbarian camp. 【447】 (End of chapter)

Those who want longevity and ascension feel that the Moon Shaman God is blocking their ascension.

Even birth, aging, sickness, and death—these natural laws of the Heavenly Dao—are all the Moon Shaman God's fault!

Ji Che emphasized this point, and he said it very colloquially:

Humans shouldn't get sick, shouldn't age, and certainly shouldn't die. This is something proven by the Ancient Divine Dynasty!

As long as you ascend, these things will be solved. You will no longer get sick, no longer age, and certainly not die!

The temples I established, the Three Departments of Fortune, Salary, and Longevity, have already proven this.

I could have done better, but it's that bad seed, the Moon Shaman God, blocking us; otherwise, I would have taken you all to ascend long ago!

Subjects of the Great Zhou, tell me, is this Moon Shaman God and his accomplices in the Southern Barbarian Royal Court not rotten to the core?

"I, upholding the mandate of Heaven, proclaim to Heaven above and announce to the Earth below."

"For the sake of the masses, starting today, I will lead my officials to conquer the lands beyond, determined to eradicate the monsters! To exterminate the evil gods!"

"The War to Pacify the Barbarians will not end until death!"

The Wu Di's voice echoed between Heaven and Earth, as if making a grand vow.

This was indeed his vow to establish the Dao. In his previous life, the Wu Di fought until the end of his life from the moment the Great War to Pacify the Barbarians began; the war almost never stopped.

"This time, the Wu Di's conquest of the barbarians is ahead of schedule, and the situation is completely different."

"With my help, the Great Zhou has the Ancient Dragon Court, the unification of the three Si Nong schools, the inheritance of the three people including Qing Qing Yu Zi, the early exit of Yun Tiandao, a sane Liu Liu Tianning, the Profound Heaven Divine Sect that defected, more vassal states and tribes, and the Southern Barbarians have lost a Purple Dragon God..."

Zhao Xing looked toward the distant south, seemingly seeing that holy mountain connecting Heaven and Earth, and seeing that white-robed figure.

"Moon Shaman God, eat shit!"

After the Spring Festival of the 98th year of Yuanshuo, the Wu Di changed the era name to 'Yuanding', signifying the stabilization of the entire world.

In the spring of the same year, the army set off from Pinghai Prefecture, with a total number of mobilized troops reaching 50 million.

The conquest of the barbarians during the Wu Di's era exceeded the peak number of people in the Great War to Pacify the Barbarians during the Jing Emperor's era from the very beginning!

Along the banks of the Canglan River, countless storied ships, battle formations, and flying boats crossed the Canglan River together.

The War to Pacify the Barbarians officially began.

In the early stages of the War to Pacify the Barbarians, the Wu Di almost replicated his father's fighting style, and the situation was not much different from the Jingxin calendar era.

Everything was like splitting bamboo, with constant reports of victory.

The only difference was that the speed of casting cities, erecting monuments, and building temples during the Jing Emperor's era was slower than during the Wu Di's era; the efficiency was not on the same level.

The operation of military supplies was also completely different.

During the Jing Emperor's era, the army was fast, but what they conquered was all raw land, and the conversion efficiency of mature land was relatively slow.

When Zhao Xing was the Junshu Ling, he saw many cities where the temples hadn't even been built yet, and they were already being used as strongholds.

This meant they had to divide troops to guard the cities, and guarding them didn't guarantee they could hold them.

However, after Zhao Xing became the Great Si Nong, the strength of the Great Zhou was completely different.

The precious materials cultivated by the Si Nong increased, the planting materials brought out from the Dragon Court increased, and the number of derivative species also greatly increased.

During the Jing Emperor's era, there would still be shortages of certain materials, requiring the temporary concentration of the Si Nong's planting capabilities to rush the planting of certain materials.

But now, there was simply no need for this.

The production materials of the Si Nong increased, the warriors ate better, and the manufacturing capabilities of the mechanical masters also grew significantly; productivity was simply leaping forward.

In terms of logistics, there was absolutely no Great Si Nong who could do better than Zhao Xing.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the eighth year of Yuanding.

The War to Pacify the Barbarians had also been going on for eight years.

As King Luo Hou planned, he completed the first stage of the strategy.

The Great Zhou army had already reached the front of the Yinyou Mountain.

King Luo Hou began to intentionally lose battles, wanting to lure the four great royal courts into a decisive battle outside Yinyou Mountain, but this plan was not successful. After just a slight probe, King Luo Hou decided to proceed to the second stage.

Forty-six legions began to cross Yinyou Mountain, using it as a base to start an encirclement from the east, west, and north, creating conditions for the ten great forbidden armies in the south to outflank them.

In the second stage, the resistance of the Southern Barbarians rose significantly, the war fully entered the high-rank level, and casualties began to intensify.

The four great royal courts of the Southern Barbarians possessed powerful combat strength; they gained huge benefits in the Qi tide, and with the help of top experts from the sects beyond, it was very difficult for the Great Zhou to complete the encirclement strategy without paying heavy casualties or to shorten the time as much as possible.

Ultimately, it was because the traitor Zigu Tianzun had created many divine weapons, mechanical arrays, armor puppets, and large warships for the Southern Barbarians.

It was precisely because Zigu Tianzun obtained Puta's inheritance that the Southern Barbarians and the Sect Alliance Army were able to trade blows with the Great Zhou in the second stage.

So, in the third year of the second stage of the war, King Luo Hou found Zhao Xing.

"Zhao Xing, it's time." King Luo Hou brought a battle report to the Si Nong Hall. "You cannot let Zigu Tianzun continue to pretend; he has built many powerful divine weapons, mechanisms, and defensive arrays for the Southern Barbarians over these years."

"If he continues to lurk, it will be very difficult for us to complete the strategic goals of the second stage within eight to sixteen years, and the casualties will be very heavy."

Zhao Xing glanced at the battle report and nodded: "It's about time. At this point, the Southern Barbarian and Sect coalition forces have already invested a large amount of combat power into the battlefield; even if they wanted to retreat, they couldn't do so in time."

Not letting Zigu defect at the first opportunity was mainly because they hadn't invested enough cost in troops yet. If Zigu had jumped ship at the very beginning, the effect wouldn't have been as good as dragging the Southern Barbarian high-end combat power into the quagmire of war first and then stabbing them in the back.

Now that the war had reached the third year of the second stage, the timing was about right; Zigu Tianzun could play his part.

Zigu Tianzun could only contact Zhao Xing, and it was a single-line connection, so King Luo Hou could only discuss it with Zhao Xing.

"I will go and activate the single-line connection with him now," Zhao Xing said.

"If it's inconvenient for him, he can also reveal a few important checkpoints first; there's no need to spill everything at once," King Luo Hou said expectantly. "As long as I have the methods to break the arrays of the eight important checkpoints I need, it will be enough to complete the strategy of the second stage."

"It's better to let him cooperate fully," Zhao Xing laughed. "Otherwise, how would it fit your combat philosophy of fierce attacks and assaults?"

"Good, then I will wait for your news." King Luo Hou's figure disappeared on the spot.

Seeing Zhao Xing start to contact Zigu Tianzun, Yun Tiandao, who was on the side, was very surprised: "You two seemed to be talking about Puta's successor just now?"

"Yes," Zhao Xing nodded. Yun Tiandao had met Qing Qing Yu Zi, so of course, he knew about Puta and Fairy Su, and he also knew that Zigu Tianzun had become the final winner in the mechanical inheritance.

But Yun Tiandao didn't know more detailed inheritance rules. Hearing the conversation between Zhao Xing and King Luo Hou, he couldn't help but be shocked: "If I remember correctly, Zigu Tianzun, who mastered Puta's inheritance, is the National Master of the Jin Yu Royal Court, right?"

"Correct, he was promoted in the last two years; he is the National Master of the entire Southern Barbarian lands."

"He is hailed as the strongest mechanical master of this generation?"

"Hmm."

"And he controls all the heavy mechanical weapons, military defense layouts, and mechanical arrays of the Southern Barbarians?"

"Yes, the four defensive lines were all built by him," Zhao Xing answered while flipping through files. "The mechanical puppet 'Purple God Series' built by Zigu Tianzun has played a major role in these three years. It allows one person to control an army of ten thousand puppets, breaking the previous understanding that mechanical masters could only control a small number of powerful puppets, and raising this limit to over ten thousand."

"He is the strongest mechanical master, so of course he is responsible for the defensive arrays of the entire army."

"Zigu Tianzun has been revered as a savior by the Southern Barbarians these past few years. He... is actually your man?" Yun Tiandao's eyes were extremely strange.

Zhao Xing didn't answer this time, just smiled and shook a treasure in his hand that looked like a glow stick.

"Hum~" It emitted a faint purple light, and then purple light lines quickly formed a blurry face in front of them.

Before the body was fully formed, the skull face spoke first.

"Hey, Big Brother, is that you?"

"It's me," Zhao Xing nodded. "Little Brother Zigu, how are you doing? Is it convenient to talk for a while?"

"Of course," Zigu Tianzun nodded confidently: "I am the most powerful person in the entire Southern Barbarian lands now; no one dares to, and no one can monitor me, not even the Moon Shaman God!"

Yun Tiandao: "..."

Hearing Zigu's cheerful voice, Yun Tiandao even felt a little sympathy for the Southern Barbarian camp.
