Chapter 828: The Art of Entering Dreams
In Xianyang City, a streak of crimson light suddenly streaked across the sky and descended directly into the depths of the imperial palace in Xianyang City. This crimson rainbow light pointed straight toward the place where Ying Zheng rested in the inner palace.
"Presumptuous!"
At this moment, from the depths of the imperial palace, a roar erupted, followed immediately by an attack launched toward that crimson rainbow light.
Yet, this Sea-Stabilizing Needle in the depths of the imperial palace, a powerhouse of the Great Luo level, found that this strike had absolutely no effect on the rainbow light.
This rainbow light seemed as if it were intangible; the person's attack passed directly through the rainbow light, slammed into the city wall, and shattered half of the city gate tower.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this situation, this person could no longer sit still and flew rapidly toward Ying Zheng's palace.
However, no matter how fast he was, he could not outpace this rainbow light; in the blink of an eye, the rainbow light fell into Ying Zheng's palace.
The rainbow light instantly merged into Ying Zheng's body.
"Hmm!"
Ying Zheng, who was fast asleep, merely furrowed his brows before returning to his deep slumber.
The next moment, several figures appeared in the palace.
"Chu Lao, what is going on?"
"I do not know. A rainbow light just descended from the sky. I intended to intercept it, but I did not expect that even with all my strength, I would still let this rainbow light land on His Majesty."
"Now His Majesty has fallen into a deep sleep and cannot be awakened."
"Damn it! Who on earth did this?"
The others changed color upon hearing this, especially Lv Buwei, whose expression was exceptionally ugly.
"Prime Minister Lv, what should we do now?"
Everyone turned their gaze toward Lv Buwei.
"This act is very likely the work of the Heavenly Court. They used a secret technique to cast His Majesty into a deep sleep, wanting to leave our Great Qin without a leader."
Lv Buwei's expression was grave; Great Qin was preparing to rise up against Heaven, and for His Majesty to be cast into a deep sleep by a secret technique at this time was a significant blow to Great Qin.
Moreover, what was more important was that His Majesty was also a top-tier expert; in particular, the Twelve Capital Divine Demon Array required His Majesty to unleash its greatest power perfectly.
If His Majesty remained asleep, it would be troublesome.
"What should we do now?"
"His Majesty has been cast into a deep sleep by a secret technique; this matter must be kept hidden."
"Now that Jiuzhou is somewhat unstable, the Heavenly Court has already made its move. The Civil and Martial Stars have already reincarnated, and the same goes for the Greedy Wolf and Seven Killings stars."
"More importantly, I calculated some days ago that the Heavenly Court has sent down an Emperor Star, hidden in Jiuzhou. They want to rely on this Emperor Star to overthrow our Great Qin."
"By destroying the Qi of Luck of our Great Qin in this way, the Heavenly Court can then directly send troops to take action."
Lv Buwei was familiar with ancient history and knew very well that if Great Qin's Qi of Luck did not decline, no party would dare to send troops easily.
Previously, they dispatched Gouchen the Great, but that was merely to test Great Qin; they did not expect Bai Qi to be so unyielding, killing one of the Six Royals of the Heavenly Court without any hesitation.
This also made the Heavenly Court realize that Great Qin had embarked on a path of no return and had no intention of turning back.
"Then, Prime Minister Lv, with His Majesty now asleep, what should we do about the morning court? His Majesty cannot remain absent forever."
"In that case, I ask you, Chu Lao, to impersonate His Majesty and hold things together for a while."
Lv Buwei said calmly.
"Very well! I shall impersonate His Majesty."
Chu Lao was a member of the Ying royal clan and also an Ancestor of the Ying clan; even if Ying Zheng were to wake up in the future, he would not say anything about him impersonating him.
The others did not have the courage or the strength to impersonate His Majesty.
"Next, we need to find the Heavenly Court's Emperor Star and eliminate them. Only then will the Human Race in Jiuzhou be stable, Great Qin's Qi of Luck will not be shaken, and we will not give the Heavenly Court any chance to intervene."
How could these people not be aware of the Heavenly Court's strength?
Great Qin had obtained the remaining Qi of Luck of the Yin-Shang and also received support from the Sorcerer Clan; they knew quite a bit about the strength of the Heavenly Court and even the Earth Immortal World.
Even some Human Sages, such as certain disciples of the Hundred Schools of Thought, were involved; as members of the Human Race, they naturally hoped that the Human Race would grow stronger.
Although Ying Zheng was ambitious, his actions were indeed for the sake of the Human Race; even if he allied with the Sorcerer Clan, so what?
Even Human Sovereign Xuanyuan would not actually have any objections; after all, their ultimate goal was the Human Race.
If they allied with the Sorcerer Clan and paid a small price, and it truly succeeded, it would be a very good thing for the Human Race.
At that time, the Sages in the Fire Cloud Cave would also benefit greatly.
"Hmph! It is those villains from the Buddhist Sect again, actually using a secret technique to strike at the Human King."
In the Fire Cloud Cave, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors gathered together.
With the great calamity of the human world beginning, the Fire Cloud Cave had long since begun to observe.
The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were quite pleased with this generation's king of the human dynasty, who was ambitious and possessed great talent and strategy.
As for Ying Zheng wanting to surpass the Three Sovereigns and outshine the Five Emperors, they had no dissatisfaction; on the contrary, they were even happier. If Ying Zheng could truly achieve this, his arrival in the Fire Cloud Cave in the future would also enhance the Qi of Luck of the Fire Cloud Cave.
It would increase the strength of the Human Race.
Nothing made them happier than seeing their descendants succeed.
They had seen Ying Zheng's actions with their own eyes; he was indeed a very capable descendant.
It was just a pity that his ambition was too great, and wanting to complete it in one step was extremely difficult.
Breaking the Heavenly Court's hold on the Human Race's Qi of Luck—on this point, Zhuanxu of the ancient Five Emperors had once severed the connection between Heaven and Earth, shattering the Heavenly Ladder between the human world and the Heavenly Court, wanting to isolate the two realms so that the human world would be ruled by the Human Race.
The Qi of Luck returned to the Human Race.
At that time, the Human Race's Qi of Luck had indeed increased greatly.
However, the subsequent backlash was also quite significant; if he had not been one of the Five Emperors of the Human Race with such high Merit, he likely would have been killed by this backlash.
Even so, his cultivation was the weakest among the Five Emperors; after all, he had used up half of his Heavenly Dao Merit to barely manage to isolate it.
What Ying Zheng was doing now was no different from what Zhuanxu did back then, perhaps even more ruthless, and the Heavenly Court and various factions naturally did not want to see it.
Therefore, there must be a backlash, but it is a pity that they in Fire Cloud Cave have no way to take action.
"Third brother, do not be reckless."
"This technique holds no harm for Ying Zheng; on the contrary, it is actually beneficial to him."
"The intensity of Ying Zheng's Qi of Luck at this moment is not much inferior to Dayu's, so even a Saint would not dare to employ a secret technique to harm him."
"However, this dream-entry technique will cause Ying Zheng to fall into a deep slumber, and if the Great Qin loses him, it will surely fall into chaos."
Emperor Xuanyuan still could not swallow his anger; he naturally knew that this was the handiwork of the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect, and it was too insidious.
"The ministers of the Great Qin are quite capable; that Lv Buwei is a figure comparable to the masters of the various schools of thought. With him there, the Great Qin will not fall into chaos."
"It is just that now even the Buddhist Sect has made a move; it seems the Heavenly Court and the others are determined to destroy the Great Qin."
"I do not know if the Great Qin will be able to withstand it."
Heavenly Sovereign Fuxi sighed at length.
