Chapter 446 Dare to Fight

Jizhou.

Next to the desk in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

Nangong Yao sat on Shen Ping's lap, her cheeks flushed and her round and small earlobes were even more crystal red. It was not until the blood energy was infused that the fire heat in her body slowly subsided.

moment.

She turned sideways, looked into Shen Ping's eyes and asked, "My husband arranged for Chen Bin to expand the Jizhou army. Does he want to dominate the world?"

Before Shen Ping could speak, she continued, "Although your husband's strength is enough to establish a country, if he ascends to the throne, he will need to manage the affairs of the world, which may not be as easy as it is now."

Shen Ping smiled and said, "I have never thought about ascending to a high position. I think Yao'er is quite good at this. If we can really unify the world, I will let Yao'er become the empress, rule all the states in the world, and intimidate all the countries."

Nangong Yao blinked her eyes and said, "There has never been a female emperor in history."

"Then you will be the first."

"As a husband, I will be the one behind the empress."

Speaking of.

Shen Ping placed Nangong Yao on the table and said, "It's very hard to stand behind Yao'er."

Nangong Yao heard footsteps not far away, and her cheeks suddenly flushed with nervousness and embarrassment, "Husband, stop joking, someone is coming..."

Before she could finish her words, her body trembled violently.

Just as the footsteps approached the steps below the threshold of the main hall, Shen Ping's voice rang out: "Chen Bin, what's the matter?"

Chen Bin hurriedly said, "Master, the Black Dragon Demon Emperor from the Black Dragon Cult is here to visit."

"Oh? This person actually came to visit me on his own initiative. This is really unexpected."

"Tell him to wait for a moment. I'll comb my hair and come over."

"Yes, Master."

After a while.

Shen Ping came to the guest room of the City Lord's Mansion, and saw a man in a black scale-armored cloak sitting on a chair sipping tea. Although the man tried to restrain his aura, the oppression of the power of heaven and earth could not be concealed.

"Senior Black Dragon was able to come to Jizhou City quietly. I admire his method."

When one reaches the Star Platform Realm, it is very difficult to conceal one's own power of heaven and earth. Generally, one can easily sense each other from a distance of dozens of kilometers. For example, when Shen Ping went to the imperial capital last time, he was sensed by two royal Star Platform powerhouses not far from the city gate.

Therefore, if Xingtai Realm wants to escape, it will be difficult to catch up unless the speed is much faster than the opponent.

The Black Dragon Demon Emperor smiled calmly and said, "I have lived for tens of thousands of years, and have been sleeping in the Black Abyss for who knows how many years, so naturally I must have some unique methods."

Shen Ping narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that this was a deliberate tactic used by the Black Dragon Demon Emperor to scare him. After all, being able to approach silently meant that it would be easy for the Black Dragon Demon Emperor to deal with the people around Shen Ping.

"I wonder what important matter has Senior Black Dragon brought with him to visit me this time?"

He asked directly to the point.

The Black Dragon Demon Emperor put down his teacup. "Not long after this place woke up, I heard about the reputation of Master Shen. In less than two hundred years, he has reached the Star Platform and can kill people of the same level. This kind of strength and speed of rise is unprecedented. I came here on the one hand to see it, and on the other hand to cooperate with Master Shen."

Shen Ping was still very interested in Hei Yuan, so he asked, "How would Senior Hei Long like to cooperate?"

The Black Dragon Demon Emperor did not reply immediately, but smiled and said, "Master Shen has just dealt with two powerful Star Platform masters from Yunzhou and Jianzhou and occupied the two states. A blood pool should have appeared in the territory, right?"

"good."

Shen Ping did not hide anything. Since the other party mentioned it, he must know some inside information.

really.

The Black Dragon Demon Emperor laughed, "Master Shen is straightforward, so I won't beat around the bush. The appearance of the blood pool is related to the territory of the world, or more precisely, the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty. The more states we occupy, the greater our chances of obtaining the blood pool."

"My Black Dragon Church will fully assist Jizhou in annexing the Great Xia Dynasty. As for the Blood Pond, it will be completely yours. After unifying the world, you can go to the Black Abyss to help me."

These words made Shen Ping feel confused.

The blood pool is undoubtedly the most uncommon and scarce resource. Refining and absorbing it can improve one's comprehension and application of the power of heaven and earth. That's why the Black Dragon Demon Emperor doesn't care.

"I didn't expect Senior Black Dragon to be so generous. I really admire him."

He complimented.

The Black Dragon Demon Emperor heard the sarcasm in the words, and said indifferently: "I will not hide it from you. Whether it is the Heavenly Heart Stone or the Blood Pool, they are the best training resources for you new Star Platform juniors, but as long as you enter the Black Abyss, these things will be poisonous..."

Shen Ping suddenly realized that there seemed to be some kind of rules and restrictions in the Black Abyss. After thinking for a while, he asked again: "I wonder what Senior Black Dragon wants me to do in the Black Abyss?"

"You'll know when you go there."

After saying that, the Black Dragon Demon Emperor stood up and his body slowly faded. "Master Shen, don't be suspicious. Everything outside the Black Abyss is not of interest to a demon emperor like me. In addition, Master Shen, be careful of the Great Xia Dynasty's Taizu. He is your biggest enemy."

He raised his eyes and looked in the direction where the breath dissipated.

Shen Ping frowned slightly, and after careful thought, he suddenly understood that the Black Dragon Demon Emperor's words were probably three-tenths true and seven-tenths false. It should be true that the Black Abyss has limitations, as for the rest... hum, most likely he saw that he was so powerful and had no solution for the time being, so he deliberately said some words to go with the flow.

However, if the blood pool is indeed related to Dragon Luck as previously speculated, then Taizu of the Great Xia Dynasty is indeed the enemy.

…

Imperial capital.

Deep in the palace.

The two Star Masters and a newly promoted Star Master from the clan stood respectfully in front of Taizu of the Great Xia Dynasty and narrated in detail what had happened in the past hundred years.

"So, the biggest threat to our Great Xia Dynasty right now is not the rebels in the states, but the leader of the Demon God Cult in Jizhou City?"

The Great Xia Dynasty's Taizu looked at the file and said, "Interesting, Jizhou was born less than 200 years old, but he was able to break through to the Star Platform. Moreover, the Tianjiao that emerged in the past hundred years or so was actually born at the same time as him. Could this be a coincidence?"

One of the clan leaders hurriedly said, "Ancestor, we have previously speculated that these geniuses are likely to be the legendary Heavenly Beings. In ancient legends, only Heavenly Beings can open the door to the world and lead to the path of eternal life. However, after a period of observation, we found that these geniuses are not special in other aspects except for their excellent qualifications and talents."

The Great Xia Dynasty's Taizu said: "There are differences between those who come to the heavens. Perhaps this Master Shen is different. Otherwise, how could he reach this level in such a short time? If I wake up later, I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress him."

"But even now, it's hard for me to deal with the other party."

The clan leader couldn't help but ask, "Even the ancestor can't do anything?"

"There is a way, but the cost is too high."

"If it weren't for the restrictions on the Black Abyss, I would be able to easily defeat it with my strength."

The Great Xia Dynasty's founder sighed, "Our Great Xia has been established for a thousand years. Judging from the previous dynasties, a thousand years is a threshold. I'm afraid this time our Great Xia will be no exception. We are destined to become a stepping stone for the new dynasty. Even if we are unwilling, we must follow the trend."

The expressions of the three Xingtai clans changed.

The newly promoted Xingtai asked, "Grandmaster, are you really going to hand over this vast country to others?"

"snort."

The Great Xia Dynasty's Taizu glared at the Xingtai and said, "Strength is the foundation. What's the use of a vast territory? However, the territory is related to the Dragon's destiny of our Great Xia. Even if it is to disappear, it can't be too fast. You should immediately arrange to suppress the rebels in various states, and you can do it yourself if necessary."

"Yes, Taizu."

…

The twenty-first year of Jian'an.

The royal family led the most elite Dragon Guards to various states to suppress the rebellion, but they encountered stubborn resistance from the aristocratic families in various states. After losing most of their elite troops, they finally eliminated the rebels. The Demon Suppression Bureau was rebuilt, and the aristocratic families in various states also submitted.

For a while.

The world seemed to have returned to peace.

Yet only five years had passed.

The rebels in various states revived again. In the same year, the Jizhou army, which had been preparing for five or six years, went out in full force. In less than five months, it successively annexed three states.

Seeing that Jizhou was about to fall out.

The royal family once again mobilized the Longwu Guards, but before they reached Jizhou, the Longwu Guards were completely wiped out, which completely shocked the world.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Inside the palace.

Emperor Jian'an looked at the commander of the Dragon Guards and angrily said, "You are all useless. I have spent countless resources to train you for so many years, but you can't even beat a small provincial army. How can you still have the face to come back?!"

The commander of the Dragon Guards lowered his head, his face full of shame.

At this time, a clan leader came over and frowned, saying, "What exactly is going on? Although the Dragon Guards haven't been on the battlefield for many years, they have just suppressed the rebels in various states in the past few years, so they have been tempered. How could they be defeated by the newly-formed Jizhou Army?"

The commander of the Dragon Guards said quickly: "The Jizhou Army is full of elites, and their strength is even better than our Dragon Guards. Not only have all of them reached the fifth level of strength, but there are also thousands of them in the Star Realm, and more than twenty in the Star Palace Realm."

As soon as these words came out.

Emperor Jian'an and the clan's Star Platform strongmen were stunned.

"impossible!!"

Emperor Jian'an waved his sleeves and angrily rebuked: "This must be your excuse. The Jizhou Army has 30,000 people and it has been less than seven years since its establishment. How is it possible that everyone has reached the fifth level? How long has my Great Xia cultivated the Dragon Warriors? So far, there are only more than 20,000 fifth-level lieutenant generals, and as for the star-level garrisons, there are only a few hundred..."

The commander of the Dragon Guards said, "How dare I lie to you?!"

The clan's Star Platform expert stared into his eyes and said, "What you said had better be true, otherwise I will not forgive you. Come, take him away."

A few days later.

After close investigation.

What the commander of the Dragon Guards said was actually true.

After obtaining information from Jizhou.

Even Taizu of the Great Xia Dynasty was shocked.

"In just a few years, they have trained so many elites. Even if there are auxiliary resources from the Demon God Cult, it is impossible, unless this Shen uses the blood pool to train them. But the blood pool is so precious that no one else would use it."

"Investigate. No matter what the cost, we must find out what means the other party used!"

…

Of course, what Shen Ping used was not the blood pool, but the blood beads he refined with his devouring talent. As for the Star Realm, it was secretly cultivated by the Lizard Cult over the past hundred years. Some of the Star Palace Realm came from the Black Dragon Cult, Nangong and other families.

Inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

Chen Bin said excitedly: "Master, after this battle, our Jizhou will be famous and I believe it will be easier to conquer other states, and those noble families will also secretly come to us. In addition, I have sent people to every county, including the countryside, to search for the blood pool on a large scale, and there will be news coming back soon."

Elder Yan also quickly echoed, "I will also have people search deep in the mountains."

Shen Ping said with great satisfaction: "That's right, as long as you can find the blood pool, each of you will be credited."

To him, merit represents blood beads.

The speed of cultivation after swallowing the blood beads far exceeded that of other resources, which naturally made the two capable subordinates happy.

Half a month later.

Two blood pools were discovered in the three newly occupied states, both of which were created not long ago. This made Shen Ping more convinced of the connection between the territory and the blood pools, so he ordered Elder Chen Binyan and others to speed up the capture of other states.

He himself began to refine and absorb the blood pool.

According to the effect of the blood pool obtained in Jinzhou last time, a blood pool can increase the power of heaven and earth of a certain bloodline by more than half. Combined with the blood beads obtained by killing Xingtai, it can basically increase one bloodline to the second level.

Now he has five bloodlines left, and has accumulated four blood beads of the Star Platform Realm in his hands, two of which are of the wind element, so his demand for the blood pool is quite great.

"Yao'er, if any powerful person from the Xingtai takes action, you can interrupt my retreat immediately."

Before the retreat.

He warned solemnly.

The fight for territory is mainly between the armies under his command, and the strong men of the Star Platform will generally not take action. Shen Ping had previously killed the two Star Platforms of Yunzhou and Jianzhou, which actually broke the rules. However, due to his strong strength, the other Star Platforms did not dare to say much. But it was different when facing the dynasty. If he continued to break the rules, the emperor would definitely not abide by the rules.

"Yes, husband."

In addition, Nangong Yao will be in charge of the affairs of each state.

The remaining four, Lian Nishang, Ling Yuer, Ji Ruyue and Ling Qing, also went into seclusion to absorb the blood from the pool.

More than three years passed in the blink of an eye.

The 30th year of Jian'an.

January.

The main altar is located deep in the Bashan Mountains.

In a quiet room.

Shen Ping slowly opened his eyes. The gold, fire and wind elements in his body had all been upgraded to the second level of the Star Platform. The only thing missing were the earth and thunder bloodlines.

After continuously absorbing the blood pool, he finally understood that the fusion of the source blood was indeed related to the blood pool. Only when the blood pool energy accumulated in the body, the fusion of various bloodlines would be faster. It was equivalent to the blood pool being a bonding catalyst that could fuse various bloodlines to the maximum extent.

Of course, even if there is no blood pool, it can be slowly integrated by relying on the mastery of various bloodlines, but that will require thousands or tens of thousands of years of accumulation.

Look towards the location of the black abyss.

There was anticipation in his eyes.

"Black Abyss, it's almost there. In a hundred years at most, we will be able to reach Black Abyss!"

Get up and walk out of the quiet room.

Shen Ping's figure gradually disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already floating above the imperial court. He looked into the depths of the imperial court and said calmly, "Grandmaster Ji, do you dare to come out and fight?"
