Chapter 1500

Every day, he drank and chatted with Tong Xiangyu and others.

Back when they were in Hun Dun City.

The group got along quite well.

At this moment, while drinking and chatting.

Liu Zheng also mentioned the changes over the recent period.

"Your Majesty, it is said the Hunyuan Palace will hold a grand ceremony and invite powerful figures from all corners to attend.

Will you go as well?"

Tong Yibi Yuanhou asked cautiously.

After all, Liu Zheng's strength was simply too formidable.

It was just unknown whether the other side would attend.

And right after his words fell silent.

Liu Zheng's face revealed a peculiar expression.

He spoke slowly.

"Attend? Why not attend? I too wish to see this so-called grand ceremony!"

After his voice faded, silence fell once more.

And as they chatted freely here.

A distant army was advancing toward Heifeng Ridge.

At its head was none other than the Grand Master of the Daqian Dynasty.

His face bore a ferocious expression.

He stared down at the Shanzhai below.

Then he roared.

"People of Heifeng Shanzhai, come out and face death!"

After his voice echoed, all around them frowned in unease.

Their eyes showed surprise.

For the Daqian Dynasty's dominance over Zhao Tianhe Commandery was not without reason.

This time, Heifeng Shanzhai had provoked them.

It seemed they were in trouble.

Indeed, the moment the dynasty's Grand Master finished speaking.

From deep within the Shanzhai, a figure stepped out.

It was the Heifeng Saint.

His face was now filled with dark malice.

He looked coldly at the Grand Master and said.

"Sir, what do you want with me?"

His voice carried a chilling edge.

This time, he suffered devastating losses.

He never expected the other side would come knocking now.

Not only had they killed his son, but wiped out his entire clan.

How could he endure this?

"Hah! Heifeng Shanzhai's leader is indeed straightforward.

No wonder you're the fiercest bandit of Zhao Tianhe Commandery!

I've come here solely to tell you this:

The Han Emperor wishes to obliterate Heifeng Shanzhai to avenge his brother.

Will you accept this, or refuse?"

His voice carried heavy threats.

He was forcing them to submit.

Upon hearing this, the Heifeng Shanzhai leader dared not delay.

He spoke at once.

"Mr., we are willing to submit to the Han Empire!"

Fear flashed in his eyes.

Now, submission was the only thing that mattered.

As long as he preserved his life, everything else could be salvaged.

"Hmm, good. Since you agree, from this day forward, Heifeng Shanzhai belongs to the Han Emperor.

Be prepared.

Remember: anyone who dares defy my orders will be executed without mercy!"

The Daqian army, after uttering a final threat, departed.

They were returning to their main force to report.

The people of Heifeng Shanzhai, meanwhile, exhaled in relief.

Then the voice of the Heifeng Saint rang out.

"Everyone, disperse!"

The Heifeng Holy Mother had been captured; Heifeng Shanzhai was now destroyed.

He could only seek another path.

"Yes, Holy Monarch!"

Upon hearing the voice, all present respectfully spoke.

Then, they withdrew.

At this time, Liu Zheng presided over Hei Feng Ridge, growing ever more mysterious.

1177 How to break through!

1177 How to break through!

Yet at this moment, he was no longer paying attention to the matters below.

Instead, he stood upon the grand hall.

Looking down at Tong Xiangyu, he slowly spoke.

"During this time, your cultivation has made progress!"

"Your Majesty, this general's realm has reached Ancestor Hongmeng Demon God Fifth Layer.

But my combat power still falls short—I do not know how to break through!"

Tong Xiangyu said.

Over these past years, with Liu Zheng's help,

his strength had indeed grown rapidly.

Yet he still lacked a thread's breadth from breaking into the Sixth Star Ancestor Hongmeng Demon God.

He remained just a hair's breadth away.

Thus, after speaking, he waited for the other's answer.

And just as his words faded,

Liu Zheng smiled and said.

"Do not rush—this matter I understand well.

What you must do now is solidify your foundation.

Once you break through, you shall become a true Seventh Star Ancestor Hongmeng Demon God.

Take these—all of them—and study them at your own pace!"

His voice rang out.

A jade slip was thrown into Tong Xiangyu's hand.

These were the cultivation techniques Liu Zheng had gathered.

They contained the methods of the Three Thousand Great Dao Paths.
