Chapter 379: Nurturing My Invincible Momentum

This round of heavenly thunder added to his body, roasting Wei Yuan until he was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, his whole body fragrant.

Fortunately, his physical body was powerful. Countless tiny parts of his body began to regenerate, and after being tempered by the thunder tribulation, many flesh and blood were quenched and reborn, and the strength went up another level. At this time, Wei Yuan was equivalent to crossing a Dharma Form heavenly tribulation once. After tempering, the strength of his physical body could be ranked at the very front among Dharma Forms.

Just looking at Xu Wenwu, Wei Yuan suddenly felt that this matter should be told to him later, or simply not told to him at all.

Otherwise, if this guy's brain twitched and he came up with some method to temper his physical body without crossing the tribulation, wouldn't his thunder tribulation have been crossed in vain? If that were the case, Wei Yuan would definitely spit out a mouthful of old blood on the spot.

At this time, the cultivators of the Grand Void Palace had the time to talk to Wei Yuan. However, Cui Yu didn't say anything, just came over and hugged Wei Yuan.

The two separated, and Wei Yuan sized up Cui Yu, saying, "How did you end up more miserable than me, the main person?"

Cui Yu said unhappily, "Ever since I met a guy like you, I haven't had a good day!"

Wei Yuan already knew about what happened in the Azure Void on his way back, and also knew about everyone working together to defeat the Xu family for the second time.

Wei Yuan was not good at expressing, just squeezed Cui Yu's arm hard and said, "After the boundary is settled, I will accompany you back to the Cui family once and overturn Cui Tianlin!"

Cui Yu revealed a faint smile and said, "But I'm not sure."

"Don't worry, you won't lose!"

After Cui Yu, it was Sun Yu and Yu Zhizhuo. These two were of the uncle generation, and Wei Yuan bowed respectfully. The two saw Wei Yuan's cultivation and suddenly felt that the Dharma Form should be put on the agenda.

Finally, it was Feng Tingyu. This girl didn't say a word, came up and gave Wei Yuan a bear hug, pressed him tightly in her arms and squeezed him, then released her hands and bounced Wei Yuan out.

At this time, eight hundred Dao soldiers got off the flying boat, and then moved the supplies down.

For the next few days, Wei Yuan recounted the population of the boundary and reorganized the troops, busy until he was dizzy. After the second defeat of the Xu family, refugees constantly came to the Azure Void from all over, hundreds a day when it was few, and thousands when it was many. Added to the thirty thousand captives of the Xu family's private army, the entire Azure Void population was now eighty-five thousand.

Fortunately, the boundary had harvested grain once during this period; otherwise, the grain would really not be enough. The grain fields in the boundary were destroyed by over a hundred thousand mu in the Great Karmic Curse. Now, forty thousand mu could be harvested, and this round of grain harvest was eighty million catties.

Grain seemed to be a lot, but now there were thirty thousand warhorses captured from the Xu family's private army in the boundary.

Human warhorses didn't need to be fed meat like Liao horses, but they didn't eat little either. One warhorse consumed the equivalent of twenty ordinary soldiers, and at least ten-plus catties had to be fed every day just for grain. And spiritual horses needed to be fed spiritual rice even more. Even the most ordinary spiritual horse cost the equivalent of ten-plus Dao Foundation cultivators.

The captives had already undergone preliminary screening, and most were willing to stay. Of course, the premise was that Wei Yuan would give them the status of official soldiers in the future.

Several hundred Dao Foundation cultivators were much more troublesome, basically all wanting to redeem themselves. Wei Yuan was no longer polite this time, raising the ransom to seven thousand taels of immortal silver per person, and not releasing them without immortal silver. Even if these people could go back, they would be bankrupted. It didn't matter if they didn't pay; just lock them up.

Receiving captives was a cumbersome and long process, which could only be carried out bit by bit. Wei Yuan distributed these tasks and then reorganized two towns of elites, each town supplemented to five thousand, and named the cavalry "Dragon Wings" and the infantry "Long Xiang."

Now that the Azure Void had abundant warhorses, Wei Yuan configured the wing cavalry with one man and two horses. The Long Xiang army was equipped with warhorses for transport, and in the future, he planned to fully replace them with flying sword guns.

It was just that the version Wei Yuan used himself was too powerful, and ordinary Dao Foundation cultivators couldn't control it at all, and the design was still very rough, all driven by Dao power. He still had to find Yu Zhizhuo to discuss how to improve it before it could be promoted on a large scale.

What surprised Wei Yuan was that Wang Yu had died.

He was seriously injured under the Great Karmic Curse that day. Although he survived at the time, his injuries became increasingly heavy, and Sun Yu was also unable to save him. Two days after Wei Yuan returned, Wang Yu finally couldn't hold on and was burned to ashes by the pale fire.

Other young masters and young ladies of the noble families were also all seriously injured in the Great Karmic Curse, and Xu Yi was also seriously injured.

Because the disciples of the Heavenly Azure and Water Moon Halls hadn't been here for long, they were basically lightly injured and recovered after a few days. This caused some complaints among other cultivators in the boundary. In addition, basically all the disciples of the two halls didn't hold important positions, so some people couldn't bear the discussion and returned to the sect. Five people from the Water Moon Hall returned, and Fei Yutong's cultivation entered a bottleneck and needed to break through the realm, so she was also called back by the Water Moon Hall True Person.

Wei Yuan didn't care about this and put it aside after asking.

After being busy this day, Wei Yuan went to the small courtyard where Zhang Sheng used to live and took a turn. The courtyard still maintained its original appearance, the furnishings hadn't changed at all, and a history book that had just been read halfway was still placed on the desk.

The four Dragon Blood Trees planted in the courtyard had disappeared, leaving only four scorched black deep pits. Wei Yuan couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had made a decisive decision at that time and planted four trees in one breath. If one was missing, and that bit of Qi luck was lacking, perhaps Zhang Sheng would have died on the spot.

Wei Yuan took a turn in the room and then sat at Zhang Sheng's desk, spread out a piece of jade paper, dipped his pen in ink, and subconsciously wrote on the paper: Junior Brother Xiaoyu...

However, after writing the heading, Wei Yuan found that there were a bit too many things he wanted to write, such as "I have obtained a bundle of immortal plants" and "Recently, I have too much heavenly merit to spend, which is quite troublesome," etc.

Finally, Wei Yuan put down the pen. There was too much to write. If he wrote it all, it seemed a bit pretentious. He had to write slowly one by one, which would be lasting.

Wei Yuan suddenly felt something in his heart. The chair turned, and he saw a woman in red standing behind him, sitting in the guest seat. He didn't know when she appeared.

At this time, Zhu Yuanjin's identity was no longer a secret. In the Northern Shanmen, Fenhai Zhenjun Xuan Yue had already told Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan immediately stood up, bowed respectfully, and said, "I haven't thanked the senior for the rescue."

Zhu Yuanjin said indifferently, "You don't need to thank me. I don't get along with those old guys above, and we had some unpleasantness, including your ancestor, the old thief Chunqiu."

Wei Yuan was confused and didn't know who the old thief Chunqiu was.

Zhu Yuanjin said, "Before your ancestor entered the Daoist gate, his name was Su Chunqiu. We are all used to calling him the old thief Chunqiu."

Regarding the little remaining face of the ancestor, Wei Yuan had to act as if he didn't hear it. "Those old guys have always wanted to hold the Northern Shanmen, saying that it is the hometown transformed by the ancestor's immortal body, and not an inch of land can be let go; otherwise, it would be desecrating the ancestor. Hmph, this has already lost over a thousand miles. The ancestor's leg has been desecrated, right?"

Wei Yuan didn't know how to respond, so he could only have a blank expression, acting as if he were a piece of wood.

Zhu Yuanjin seemed to have no one to talk to about these things, so she continued, "What's the use of holding onto this broken land? It's just blocking disasters for the three countries! If I were to say, just abandon the Northern Shanmen, and then turn to unite with the three countries' enemies, especially the Xu family's blood enemy, Zhao Li. Just watch the alien races sweep away the three countries, and then we will come to recover the lost territory."

"If we don't exterminate their families, these noble families really think they will last for a thousand autumns!"

Wei Yuan's thoughts raced. After careful consideration, he actually found that this plan was quite feasible. Millions of Liao tribe large armies going south couldn't be blocked by anyone, which would inevitably cause a major reshuffle in the north. It was just that in this way, on the million-mile border in the north, the number of mortals who died would probably be counted in the billions.

"What do you think?" Zhu Yuanjin asked.

Wei Yuan didn't answer directly, but said, "A few days ago, this junior invoked a heavenly tribulation with one sentence. That is this junior's thought."

"Hmph, another little stubborn one. Forget it, although you people are a bit stupid, you can often do things that others simply can't do." Zhu Yuanjin suddenly sighed, as if thinking of something.

After a moment of silence, she said, "For the next period of time, I will continue to guard this side. The Prisoner Cow and Gluttony of the Xu family were injured by me and won't recover so easily. There are not many True Lords who can move, and the Lu family in the north is also eyeing covetously, so there should be no trouble. However, you shouldn't be careless. Do you know what I use to deter the Xu family's True Lords?"

"Please enlighten me, senior."

!.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Yuanjin's mouth, and she said, "I will lie in ambush in the dark and will only sneak attack after the Xu family's True Lords make a move, which can guarantee a hit. So if you die in the first strike, then I can't save you, I can only say I will try to cut as deep as possible, cut off more shameful vital parts, and vent your anger for you."

Wei Yuan broke into a cold sweat. Does this senior really not treat herself as bait to fish for her enemy?

Zhu Yuanjin said again, "There is one more thing. Bao Yun's fate with you is over. Oh, this was said by Bao Manshan. He also said that if you want to continue the fate, go to the Bao family as soon as possible."

Wei Yuan felt a chill in his heart and said, "What is fate being over?"

Zhu Yuanjin said, "According to what I know, she might go to the Great Da Bao Hua Jing Land to receive a Dharma Form. I heard that an important person fell in the Great Da Bao Hua Jing Land this time, leaving the Immovable Tathagata Dharma Form empty. The Bao girl is the best candidate."

"What will happen if she receives this Dharma Form?" Wei Yuan asked.

"Nothing much. Once she cultivates to the Master Yu Jing and the mind-phase world turns into a Pure Land, she will completely become the reincarnation of the Immovable Tathagata, and the previous Bao Yun will be equivalent to dead. With the Bao girl's talent and her compatibility with this Dharma Form, perhaps it will take less than ten years to achieve the Master Yu Jing."

"Then when should I go?" Wei Yuan asked.

"Now is not the time. You will go in vain. The most urgent task is to nurture an invincible momentum, so that your Dao foundation's spirituality can be further improved until it cannot be improved anymore. That is the time to advance to the Dharma Form. Before the Dharma Form, you can go to the Bao family once."

"Then how to nurture an invincible momentum?" Wei Yuan asked.

"This is simple? You just say to everyone you meet: I see your Dharma Forms are all trash! I guarantee you won't lack opponents. Then defeat them all, and the invincible momentum will be formed."

"Or go a step further, say this: All Dharma Forms in the world are trash."

Wei Yuan quietly wiped his cold sweat, feeling that saying the latter sentence would make it easier to die halfway.

Seeing Zhu Yuanjin's expectant gaze, Wei Yuan had to say, "If I say that, wouldn't I be scolding Grandmaster Fenhai as well?"

"Scold if you scold. Little Fenhai may not be your opponent now, what are you afraid of him for?"

Wei Yuan wiped his cold sweat secretly again. This was not a question of whether he could beat him or not, but a question of betraying his master and destroying his ancestors. However, thinking of the word "betraying his master and destroying his ancestors," Wei Yuan felt guilty again.

Zhu Yuanjin stood up and said, "I'm leaving."

Wei Yuan suddenly asked, "Senior, what were you doing when you were young?"

Zhu Yuanjin smiled slightly and said, "Quite sharp. I was originally an assassin when I was young, and I slaughtered quite a few trash Dharma Forms when I was at your realm. Later, in order to assassinate an important target, I changed my name and entered the Grand Void Palace to approach the target. Later, I felt that staying in the Grand Void Palace was not bad, so I stayed until now and even mixed into a deputy view master."

Wei Yuan opened his mouth and wisely didn't ask if the assassination was successful back then. Knowing too much made it easy to be silenced.

After Zhu Yuanjin left, Wei Yuan calmed down and went to find Cui Yu to discuss the matter of sending troops. The two discussed for a long time before Cui Yu remembered one thing and asked, "Where are we going to fight?"

Wei Yuan reached out and pointed at the map, saying, "Here, collect some interest first."

Where Wei Yuan's finger pointed was exactly Hanyang Pass.

The place Wei Yuan pointed to was none other than Hanyang Pass.
