Chapter 428: Broken Bottom Line, Channel Opened
Even Wang Yanshan himself had to admit that he was by no means the best among the eight sons of the Wang family.
Being born early never means being capable.
The most outstanding son of the Six Pillars recognized by the world must be Wang Yanshan’s second brother, the Second Prince Wang Yanhai.
He is the strongest and most prestigious among the eight sons of the Wang family, and is known as the prince with the most imperial appearance.
But only Wang Yanhai himself knows that he is under a lot of pressure sitting in this position.
In the central military tent, Wang Yanhai finished the meeting with his brothers and sworn brothers, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and rubbed his forehead hard.
He was dressed in a black python robe, had a tall and sturdy figure, and his facial features were very similar to those of the King of Kings.
Whether in terms of character, methods, or appearance, he is the most perfect successor to the King of Kings!
The Wang family follows ancient rituals and has an internal belief that the eldest son will succeed to the throne.
However, the gap between Wang Lao Da and Wang Lao Er is actually visible to the naked eye - it’s not that Wang Yanshan is not good enough, but that Wang Yanhai is too good.
As a result, the King of Kings has not yet confirmed the position of Crown Prince...
Well, considering that the old king has an endless life span and is very powerful, whether or not to appoint a crown prince is actually not a big problem for him.
But for the eight sons of the Wang family and their respective subordinate forces, this issue is very important, even no less important than the matter of the six pillars fighting for the throne.
Because, this will show orthodoxy.
In fact, there is already a consensus within the Wang family that does not need to be stated explicitly.
In this round, whoever of the eight families and eight men can achieve six pillars will be the well-deserved crown prince. If all eight men fail, the position of crown prince will remain vacant.
——Only another Six Pillars who has a blood relationship with him can sit on the throne of the Six Pillars and sit on it firmly. This is very reasonable and practical!
But precisely because it was too reasonable and too practical, Wang Yanhai's pressure was increasing day by day. Until now, the tangible pressure had already surged towards him like a tide, wave after wave.
Wang Yanhai even felt like he couldn't breathe...
The inherent nobility of status brings huge expectations.
The huge forces under his command made more stringent demands on him.
The Lord of Hosts unites the hearts and minds of the people and the forces of the army, and they become strong because of this.
But water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it.
Wang Yanhai could not ignore the expectations of his subordinates.
Theoretically, reaching level twelfth is already a remarkable achievement in the main universe, but for Wang Yanhai, it is just the foundation of the foundation.
Whether it is the queen mother or the counselors and generals loyal to Wang Yanhai, they will make higher demands on Wang Yanhai.
Level 12 is not enough for you.
You have the conditions to achieve the Six Pillars, so you have to work towards this goal.
It works, of course, because your starting point is so high.
If you fail, your life will become a joke and a mistake.
It's ridiculous.
It only takes one failure, and Wang Yanhai's life would most likely end here, and he would be directly thrown into the ranks of losers - even if he had been winning before.
He can't afford to lose this round.
The current situation is very unfavorable to Wang Yanhai...
Yes, it seems that Wang Yanhai has an absolute advantage, but in fact, this advantage cannot be converted into victory, and even at the moment, it is a little shaky.
With a deep sigh, Wang Yanhai finally opened his eyes, quickly swept away the fatigue in his heart, and got back into the state.
"The first question is, the battle between the fake Immortal and Demon Emperors and the two uncles has not yet concluded."
This is important because it concerns home advantage and the key to entering the depths of the Dark Realm.
Suddenly a voice sounded from the side.
It is Wang Yanhai’s exclusive artificial intelligence strategist: Zhizi.
“Actually, that doesn’t make sense.”
"According to the calculation center's deduction, the outcome of this battle will be known in three days. We will win, and the immortals and demons will lose."
Wang Yanhai nodded gently: "Yes, the delay of this battle until now is already against common sense."
Lu and Zhao can fight against the two emperors of immortals and demons in a one-on-one fight.
As a result, the battle has not ended yet.
What about others?
Are the others just eating for free?
Of course, you can say that the fake Immortal and Demon Emperors are too powerful, and the human wave tactics are useless against them.
But if you really want to talk about it in detail, do the sons of your Wang family have any trump cards or big moves that can interfere with this battle?
Of course there is!
Putting aside other matters, did the King of Kings give you a life-saving talisman to resist the Six Pillars?!
You must have it, otherwise when you go out and there are really six pillars who want to kill you, what will you do?
There must be a life-saving talisman that can hold on until your father comes to the rescue, right?
Wang Yanhai sighed and said, "So, it's not that there is no solution, but that there is a solution but it is not used."
This leads to the second, and bigger, question.
People are not united.
The side led by Wang Laoer is not a united collective, but a loose alliance.
When they were at a disadvantage, the alliance was able to maintain unity and follow Wang Yanhai's leadership. However, when they were in an advantageous position, their morale was dispersed.
There is no way because the fundamental interests are in conflict.
You, Wang Laoer, want to be the sixth pillar, and I, Wang Laosi and Wang Laowu, also want to be the sixth pillar, and so do the seventh and eighth brothers!
Lu and Zhao also wanted to, and so did the adopted sons...
Who doesn’t want to soar to the sky?
But there is only one goal - this destroys the foundation of cooperation from the root.
Without common interests, no matter how monstrous Wang Yanhai's methods are, he cannot maintain the unity of the team.
And the problem of disunity is not even the biggest problem Wang Yanhai is facing right now.
Having thought of this, Wang Yanhai turned his head and looked forward.
The dragon energy gathered in front, revealing a new picture.
It was a blurry video shot in a dark passage.
In the video, the space wrinkled briefly, and a tall figure in black suddenly appeared.
He looks exactly like the Demon Emperor!
This person seemed to have discovered Wang Yanhai's surveillance method. He turned around and grinned at Wang Yanhai, then entered the dark world openly through the dark world passage.
——This happened three days ago.
And until now, Wang Yanhai has not been able to find any trace of this person in the dark world.
Wang Yanhai naturally knew that this being who looked exactly like the Demon Emperor was obviously not the Demon Emperor himself - the Demon Emperor was still fighting a life-and-death battle with the Immortal Emperor outside.
He murmured the man's name.
"Faceless..."
The fourth soul of the Demon Emperor, Faceless, had entered the Dark Realm three days ago.
I just don't know where it is hidden.
"Lord, I think you should show this video to others."
"The appearance of Faceless can be used to rally people's hearts and maintain unity within the alliance."
If there is an internal problem and it cannot be solved internally, then the best way is to transfer it outward.
Internal contradictions are transformed into external contradictions.
Wumian's identity and strength are an excellent object to divert internal conflicts.
Wang Yanhai shook his head.
"inappropriate."
"Why is it inappropriate?"
"It will alert the enemy."
Wang Yanhai leaned back in his chair and said expressionlessly.
"Someone is making a stupid move."
"I don't know who it is, or how many there are, but someone is definitely making a stupid move."
"It's difficult for them to overwhelm me in internal competition, and the chances of winning are getting smaller and smaller, which makes them want to move externally."
Thinking of the news sent back by the spy planted on Lao Qi's side.
"Old Seven went to the Luotian Star Region before and had contact with Zhou Xinglin and even the Origin Overlord."
"If Old Seven can do this, there's no reason why others can't contact outsiders... For example, the few soul pets on the Devil Emperor's side who haven't yet participated in the battle."
Wang Yanhai turned his gaze back to the video playing repeatedly in front of him and smiled bitterly.
"This Wumian is probably one of my good brothers, recruiting external helpers... They're not afraid of being taken advantage of by outsiders in the end!"
Tomoko stopped talking.
Because up to now, Wang Laoer still maintains such a bottom line - the most important thing is not who can grab the position of the six pillars, the most important thing is whether the person who grabs the position of the six pillars is on the side of the King of Kings!
This is the key point!
Even Wang Yanhai, who can't afford to lose, has not lost this bottom line until now.
The meat must rot in the pot and not be eaten by outsiders.
But it was obvious that as the situation became clearer, some members of the Wang family, who felt that their chances of winning were extremely low, began to have evil thoughts.
Not only the eldest and the third brother, there is a high probability that there are also several brothers in their own alliance.
They don't want to give this pot of meat to outsiders.
They may just be aware that they can control the situation and have the ability to use outsiders as knives.
just in case?
There is no such thing as an emergency.
Those who gamble everything on one throw will not consider what could happen next.
Just as the power of the outside world's kingdom of God was flashing.
The battlefield between the Fake Immortal Emperor, the Demon Emperor and Lu Zhao seemed to have changed.
Without Chieko's report, Wang Yanhai had already guessed the cause of the incident.
Wang Yanshan and Wang Yankong started fighting...
And around them, there must be some "outsiders".
As if it had guessed Wang Yanhai's thoughts, the intelligent system automatically mobilized the dragon energy and presented a picture.
The picture was not locked on the battlefield, but penetrated Wang Yanshan's kingdom of God and locked on two seemingly unimportant people.
Xia Lin and Cheng Lin!
Wang Yanhai observed Xia Lin and Cheng Lin intently, and finally focused his gaze on the spiritual world book on Xia Lin's neck and the exclusive portable space near Cheng Lin.
After staring for a moment, a sound burst out from between his teeth, low and tired.
"Tomoko?"
"I am here."
"What do you think is more important, success or failure or bottom line?"
Chieko remained silent and could not give an answer.
…
When Wang Yanshan and Wang Yankong were fighting, Xia Lin still had the audacity to not leave Wang Yanshan's kingdom of God.
According to the plan, Wang Yanshan will go to the second level of the dark world: the bottomless abyss.
Therefore, temporarily hiding in Wang Yanshan's kingdom and taking a ride was the best option for Xia Lin - her socialite nature was still taking effect...
Fortunately, Boss Wang is a straightforward person.
Not only did he not drive Xia Lin away, but he also used the power of faith to condense the picture in the previous conference room and used live broadcast to let Xia Lin witness the direction of the external situation with his own eyes.
A flash of light appeared on the live broadcast screen, and Wang Yankong appeared on the battlefield between Zhao Yun and the fake Immortal Emperor, while Wang Yanshan appeared on the battlefield between Lu Bu and the fake Demon Emperor.
The whistling energy flow, which Xia Lin dared not look directly at, was unable to defeat the energy defense system on Wang Yanshan's body - with this move alone, Wang Yanshan displayed a strength of level twelve or even stronger.
Of course, they did not dare to directly enter the center of the battlefield, but appeared next to Lu and Zhao.
This made Lu and Zhao frown, but they had to stop. Instead, they had to divide their attention and energy in the evenly matched battle, for fear of accidentally hurting the two princes.
The loyalty of the soldiers of the King of Kings is undoubtedly guaranteed.
The idea of loyalty to the emperor has long been deeply rooted in their instincts and souls.
Even though they are currently competing and fighting for the position of the Six Pillars, this group of people instinctively do not want to take action against the princes. Even if the princes are in danger, they cannot sit idly by.
This has a smack of blind loyalty, but this is also the characteristic of the profession of Lord of Hosts.
"What are you doing here?"
Lü Bu Lu Fengxian put away his halberd, but his unparalleled power became even more violent.
This allowed him to transform the area around him into his own domain in order to resist the power of the fake Demon Emperor and protect Wang Yanshan.
Wang Yanshan smiled and said, "Hello uncle... I came here to ask you a favor."
"My nephew would like to ask you to rest for a while. It won't be too late for you to make further efforts once you enter the deeper levels of the dark world."
This request is quite rude.
The original purpose of this round is to squeeze you out of the ranks of competitors.
As a result, you want to join in easily with just one word.
Loyalty is loyalty, but to the wrong person...
I am loyal to your father, you Wang Yanshan? With Lu Bu's status, he really doesn't need to care too much about the attitudes of these princes.
At this moment, Lu Bu didn't even bother to pay attention to Wang Yanshan.
He just opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of turbid air.
The breath came out of his mouth and immediately turned into a strong wind.
The surging energy pushed Wang Yanshan far away in a relatively gentle manner!
However, until Wang Yanshan flew a very long distance, his whole body suddenly flickered, and finally turned into a faint wisp of dragon energy and disappeared.
The incarnation of dragon energy!
A little trick of the Lord of Hosts.
This isn't even a skill, just one of the ways to apply dragon energy.
But because of this, the strength of this ability depends entirely on the level of the user himself - and Wang Yanshan's level is definitely not low!
He is not as strong as Lu Bu, but he can still hold his own against Lu Bu.
Therefore, this incarnation of dragon energy successfully concealed Lu Bu's perception, which made Lu Bu stunned.
Before Lu Bu could come to his senses, energy exploded again!
However, this time, he was not by his side, but was with the Demon Emperor in the distance!
Wang Yanshan's figure appeared again.
But he appeared in an extremely dangerous place - next to the fake Demon Emperor.
But what was even more surprising was that the fake Demon Emperor did not attack Wang Yanshan. Instead, he turned to look at Wang Yanshan, and a stiff smile slowly appeared on his expressionless face.
Afterwards, he took the initiative to grab Wang Yanshan's hand, and his figure turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the fake Immortal Emperor!
…
In Wang Yanhai's central military tent, when Wang Yanhai saw this scene, his whole face began to twitch.
Wang Yanhai realized this without knowing more information.
His elder brother had already contacted external aid... This external aid was not only Xia Lin and Cheng Lin, but even one of the Demon Emperor's soul pets!
It could be Faceless, but it could also be another soul pet.
However, this fake Demon Emperor in the dark world actually has self-awareness.
He sensed the aura on Wang Yanshan that should have belonged to his soul pet, so without Wang Yanshan even saying anything else, the Demon Emperor took the initiative to join hands with Wang Yanshan!
At this moment, Wang Yanshan set a very bad example for everyone on the side of the King of Kings.
He was the first to make the matter of joining forces with outsiders public!
As soon as the thought came to mind, the "Central Army Tent" immediately turned the muzzle of the gun.
The roaring dragon energy instantly condensed on the battleship's main gun, and all kinds of skill lights flashed wildly from the main ship.
Wang Yanhai's eyes were bloodshot.
The military leader's power roared and flowed. In this attack, he unleashed all his strength and even had the intention to kill!
The next second, heavy artillery roared.
The condensed light blue energy ball broke through the void and instantly arrived in front of Wang Yanshan!
However, Wang Yanshan just snorted coldly.
He didn't even bother to pay attention to his second brother's attack, and just followed the Demon Emperor and rushed forward.
And just before the energy hit the body, a halberd light suddenly appeared and tore the shell into pieces.
But it was Lu Bu who appeared behind Wang Yanshan...
He did not stop the Demon Emperor who was charging forward relentlessly, but just looked at Wang Yanhai in the distance and shook his head slightly.
"This one's passed."
Wang Yanhai was instantly deflated.
Not asking for help from outsiders is his bottom line, but it is not the bottom line for others.
Even the King of Kings did not say that you cannot ask the other six pillars for help in this round. Logically speaking, Wang Yanshan's operation was not considered illegal, at least it did not meet the standard of internal strife in the eyes of the King of Kings.
But Wang Yanhai's attack this time was done with murderous intent; he really wanted to kill someone.
And this is something that the King of Kings will never allow!
The will of the King of Kings is the mission of the generals.
Therefore, the importance of helping Wang Yanshan intercept this attack is even greater than stopping the Demon Emperor!
This is the tactic of the two brothers Wang Yanshan and Wang Yankong.
In ancient times, there were people who used the emperor to control the princes.
Now someone is using me as a hostage to control the generals!
Yes, I can’t give orders to you generals...but what I’m saying is, if someone wants to kill me in front of you, will you do anything about it?
Xia Lin in the Kingdom of God smacked his lips.
"This is too shameless..."
But he also admitted that this trick really works!
Not to mention Wang Yanshan who has completed the reunion with the Demon Emperor, let’s talk about Wang Yankong, who has also used this routine to the extreme!
He did something even more extreme!
He took the initiative to get in the middle of the fight between Zhao Yun and the fake Immortal Emperor.
This forced Zhao Yun to divert his attention and try his best to save Wang Yankong's life.
And when the Devil Emperor released his aura again, attracting the attention of the fake Immortal Emperor, things became very simple...
The fake Immortal Emperor was too lazy to fight with Zhao Yun... He didn't even know where this man came from.
He had to fight before only because the situation left him with no good choice, and Zhao Yun's strength was indeed strong enough to force him to do his best.
Now that Wang Yankong has come to disrupt the situation and the Demon Emperor is still provoking him from a distance, the fake Immortal Emperor immediately turns around to respond to the invitation to fight and rushes towards his destiny!
The next second, Wang Yanhai's voice suddenly echoed throughout the first level of the dark world!
“Stop them!”
The generals did not take action...
Because they have already seen that Wang Yanshan and Wang Yankong are serving as bodyguards for the fake Immortal and Demon Emperors.
How are they going to explain to the emperor if they injure the princes?
The adopted sons didn't do anything either...
Although, they are relatively independent compared to the generals.
But there is still a difference between a biological son and an adopted son.
If you do something wrong by accident, even if the King of Kings doesn't blame you afterwards, you will probably be punished in the future.
The only ones who could move were the princes on Wang Yanhai's side.
However, no one chose to take action.
They even have ulterior motives.
Some of them were probably better prepared than Wang Yanshan.
In the darkness, hundreds of gazes converged on the two emperors of immortals and demons who were rushing towards each other, but these gazes were all filled with indescribable thoughts.
People's hearts are scattered.
Zhou Xinglin once said: On the side of the King of Kings, a hundred people have a hundred different minds.
He really didn't lie...
The current situation is a true reflection of this sentence!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two fake immortal and demon emperors collided heavily like two huge stars!
Turbid light burst out instantly, and the entire first layer of the dark world turned into black and white, just like what Xia Lin had seen last time.
A passage was opened between the two emperors of immortals and demons.
Without saying a word, Wang Yanshan was the first to get in...
Xia Lin and Cheng Lin from the Kingdom of God also became the first "Six Pillar Competitors" to enter the second level of the Dark World.
——Of course, with the strength of these two people, I am afraid no one would regard them as competitors.
The feeling of being pulled came over Xia Lin, and he felt his eyes blurred, and the next second he appeared at the top of the bottomless abyss.
The scene below was still familiar - the fragments of subconsciousness that were re-condensing, and the scattered evil gods that were feeding on them.
——Wang Yanshan took the initiative to release Xia Lin and Cheng Lin from the Kingdom of God...
"So simple?"
Xia Lin still felt a little dreamy.
What do you want to say Wang Yanshan did?
He really didn't do anything...
But things were done so simply - all the arrangements made by Wang Yanhai became ineffective.
Wang Yanshan snorted softly and responded: "What else?"
Everyone has only one goal: the six pillars of the original dark side.
If this goal cannot be shared, there will be no win-win situation.
Therefore, the alliance of the second son of the Wang family should have collapsed long ago. The fact that it has been able to maintain it until now and barely implement the plan to block the first layer of the dark world can be attributed to Wang Yanhai's superb skills and outstanding personal charm.
Don't think Wang Yanshan is incompetent...
He saw through the matter clearly and seized the best opportunity. Relying on his status, he easily put an end to Wang Yanhai's alliance.
"But even now, while we still have time to relax, the real fight for the throne has just begun."
Just as a flash of light appeared behind him, Lu Bu and Zhao Yun appeared at the same time.
They nodded slightly to Wang Yanshan, and without saying a word, rushed directly to the bottom of the bottomless abyss.
The real fight for the throne has indeed just begun.
And then, everyone will fight on their own for the same goal.
"Including us."
Wang Yanshan said this to Xia Lin, and the look he gave Xia Lin no longer had the friendliness and smile he once had.
Xia Lin was well aware of this.
He bowed slightly to Wang Yanshan.
"My subordinate, Dean..."
In a flash of light, Dean appeared in front of Xia Lin, looking confused.
Xia Lin did not explain the current situation to Diando, but just saluted Wang Yanshan again.
"I'll take my leave."
He turned around and ran away very fast.
