Chapter 35: Abyss Ancient Road
"What to do, what to do?"
"We're dead, we're dead."
As soon as Bailong returned to the Garrison Mansion, he was as panicked as an ant on a hot pot. Thinking of Tong Linghu's man-eating gaze, Bailong couldn't help but tremble.
The deputy general frowned when he saw Bailong like this.
"If the General is so panicked, how can we succeed? Now we have no other way out. The bandits outside the city are powerful, and in a few days, there will be a great battle with Commander Tong. Once Commander Tong succeeds, our secrets will no longer be hidden."
"Then what do you say we should do? You don't think they really let me go just because of a word from a small Xuan Yi Wei commander, do you? They want me to lead the way. Now, no matter what I do, it's death. How can you ask me not to panic?"
Bailong looked at the deputy general with disdain; this guy thought everything was so simple.
But how could things be so simple?
"General, why don't we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."
The deputy general's eyes moved, and he whispered in Bailong's ear.
"Is it really possible?"
Bailong was still a bit hesitant. Because the deputy general's method couldn't clear himself at all.
"Why not?"
"Don't those people always think they are invincible? I think dealing with Tong Linghu shouldn't be a problem. Even if Tong Linghu wins by luck, we can say we were deceived. You must know that those people were holding the Chu Huang's token, which is why you, General, were tricked."
After the deputy general's analysis, Bailong felt it made sense.
"Then do as you say."
"Look, they've taken the bait."
At this time, in the anti-bandit army camp, Li Qingxian and Tong Linghu, the four of them, saw everything in a treasure mirror.
Li Qingxian looked like he had everything under control, making Lin Lanyu unable to help but tease: "General Commander is mighty."
"Be careful. I don't know which force this Bailong is colluding with. When I set out, the Nine Thousand Years Old came out personally to warn me that this rebellion is no small matter, and we must not be careless, lest we capsize in the gutter."
"Commander Tong is right. This time, it's better for ten True Gods to come out, and with Lord Xiao Xuan, we should be able to control those people. If not, I'm afraid the Nine Thousand Years Old and the Ancestor will have to come personally."
Li Qingxian stroked his beard and stated his plan.
"Good, let's do it!"
Since the fragment of time shattered, Li Xianzhi had nothing to do in the Imperial Capital. He simply decided to go to Qingyang County to see the situation. See if this rebellion was the same thing as Sang's rebellion in the tribal era.
But before that, Li Xianzhi decided to go to Zhenshen Pass first.
Zhenshen Pass had a long history and seemed to have existed before the arrival of the Imperial Dynasty era. According to historical records, Zhenshen Pass was a pass built by a Supreme powerhouse to resist extraterrestrial demons.
Huo Sang Daoren seemed to know more about Zhenshen Pass, but Huo Sang Daoren was currently sealed by Li Xianzhi due to divine soul turmoil, and it would probably take some time before he could regain consciousness.
Interestingly, the long-standing record of Zhenshen Pass was to defend against extraterrestrial demons, but since the Imperial Dynasty era, no one had ever seen the so-called extraterrestrial demons.
Although the Three Mountains and Four Seas had always coveted the central continent of the Tianhuo Domain and hoped to overthrow the Great Chu Dynasty, the Three Mountains and Four Seas were not extraterrestrial demons. The predecessors of these forces were actually wild forces living on the central continent, but the unification of the Imperial Dynasty inevitably meant dealing with these forces, either by recruitment or by suppression.
The Three Mountains and Four Seas had huge forces, including both righteous and demonic paths, as well as the demon race, and their strength could not be underestimated. Although they were not as strong as the Central Earth Imperial Dynasty, they had no problem running away. The predecessors of the Three Mountains and Four Seas could be traced back hundreds of thousands of years, and to this day, the Central Earth Imperial Dynasty had changed several times. There seemed to be an eternal theme between the Imperial Dynasty and the Three Mountains and Four Seas, which was mutual conquest.
"What a majestic city!"
Even though Li Xianzhi was knowledgeable, he had to express admiration for Zhenshen Pass.
The entire Zhenshen Pass was like a pyramid, and the whole city looked like it was carved from a single piece of bronze, several hundred square kilometers in size. What was even more shocking was that the entire Zhenshen Pass was floating in the air. At the very top of the tower, there was a huge armillary sphere moving in an interlocking manner, and countless divine lights fell from the armillary sphere, making the entire Zhenshen Pass look mysterious and majestic.
Li Xianzhi was very familiar with Zhenshen Pass. The most important place in Zhenshen Pass was an abyss ancient road under that armillary sphere.
The remnants of the Three Mountains and Four Seas could only attack Great Chu from that ancient road. Back then, Li Xianzhi fought the powerhouses of the Three Mountains and Four Seas alone in that abyss ancient road and almost reached the end of the ancient road, but in the end, he was killed at the exit by the combined efforts of the Mountain Lords and Dragon Kings of the Three Mountains and Four Seas.
Now this abyss ancient road had been completely controlled by the powerhouses of the Three Mountains and Four Seas, and Great Chu could only desperately resist at the exit.
The abyss ancient road was not a road in the traditional sense, but more like a small world, a transit world connecting Central Earth and the extraterrestrial void. The abyss ancient road had eight majestic cities; Great Chu used to control two, but now, of course, it controlled none.
Now, the person guarding Zhenshen Pass was not a general, nor an elder of the royal family, but a senior eunuch from the palace. Li Xianzhi also knew this old eunuch; he had high seniority and was one of the great powers who followed the Shenwu Dadi earliest. With the departure of the Shenwu Dadi, the Nine Thousand Years Old gradually emerged, and this person was naturally sent to Zhenshen Pass.
"Since you're here, why hide?" Inside Zhenshen Pass, in a palace, the old eunuch slowly opened his eyes.
The old eunuch was thin, and his face was so old that people could live in the wrinkles; the only thing that still looked like a living person was the old eunuch's eyes.
Vicious and domineering.
Li Xianzhi did not deliberately hide his figure, and being seen through by the old eunuch, he did not hide. In the shadows of the palace, Li Xianzhi, dressed in white, walked out slowly with a smile.
"Old guy, are you still well?"
When old friends meet, there is a special feeling.
"Little thing, it really is you. I heard you came back a few days ago, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to really be able to crawl out of the grave."
The old eunuch was somewhat happy.
"I'm tired of being dead, so I came out to take a look! This Great Chu is a mess, and you don't even manage it; I have to come out to clean up this mess for you."
Li Xianzhi found a chair at random and sat down.
"King of Equal Rank, you did such a big thing as soon as you came out. Now that you see me, your loyal old minister, don't you intend to explain?" The old eunuch stared fixedly at Li Xianzhi's eyes.
"Explain what? Are you afraid that I will ruin the foundation of Great Chu? Do you think this Great Chu is worth a few pennies in my eyes? People of our level shouldn't tell such boring jokes. I came to ask you for a favor; I want to go into the abyss ancient road to take a look."
"King of Equal Rank has great courage. Aren't you afraid that those guys will behead you again?" The old eunuch looked at Li Xianzhi with a smile that was not a smile.
"Heh, guess!" ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
