Chapter 429 Intrigue
The big and small sects and giants in the Imperial Kingdom did not wait for too long, and the actions of the Zixiaomen had not been seen yet, but the army of the empire had already moved towards their respective territories.
Carrying the might of destroying Shen Xing Dao, the rich and powerful families of various sects and sects did not dare to stop them at all, and bowed their heads and surrendered one after another. Some small sects even heard the news before the army arrived, so they assigned them to seek refuge with the local imperial government, without the slightest determination to resist.
In the hearts of these small sects, Yuguo can easily destroy even the mighty God Star Dao, with minimal losses.
Especially Zhong Yu, the legendary emperor of Yu Kingdom, whose strength was extraordinary and holy. It was rumored that he suppressed Shen Xing Dao in a short time.
When the news spread, people in all areas around Daming respectfully called Zhong Yu the invincible hand under heaven, invincible at the same level.
However, although this name is resounding and can bring great fame to the newly established Yu Kingdom, it also attracts the hostility of many outstanding figures from various factions. I don't know how many people feel jealous because of this name.
Three months after Yuguo wiped out Shen Xing Dao, all the wealthy sects in the empire had been incorporated, and all sect disciples, ordinary people down to the third level, and the elders who were in charge of the seventh level, were all collected and sent to the court. Entering the system of Yuguo, he became officials and generals with different titles and positions, which greatly enriched the strength of Yuguo.
As for the Supreme Elder of the Zixiao Sect and the founder of the sect, Zixiao Immortal Zongzun, who people expected, did not take action to suppress Zhong Yu, an outlier, as people expected.
On the contrary, the entire Zixiaomen was surprisingly quiet, not even the slightest sound of wind was released, as if they had never heard of the news that Zhong Yu subdued and wiped out the sect.
This situation surprised all the people around who were going to watch the show. They didn't know why the leader of the first sect in the Ming Dynasty and the leader of the cultivation world would watch his younger brother be recruited like this, but he didn't even have a I dare not fart.
For no reason, he lost his prestige and greatly affected his prestige.
However, following the instructions of the caring person, everyone recalled the legend from more than a hundred years ago.
It is said that more than a hundred years ago, the Zixiao Immortal of the Zixiao Sect fought a powerful demon king within a thousand miles of mountains, a roc demon king who had cultivated into a spirit.
During the war, it spread hundreds of miles around, and even several thousand-meter-high mountains were flattened by Xue Cheng. There was no one alive within a hundred miles of the center of the battlefield, which was extremely tragic.
But in the end, Zixiao Immortal Venerable was even better, and with his powerful strength, he brought the Peng Demon King under the sword, and achieved his own prestige.
It was also in that battle that the strength of the thousand-meter mountain forest was severely weakened. Many powerful demon kings fell with that war, and only then did small characters like the Huangshan Demon King rise.
However, with the victory of the war, there was another news that spread in a small area. It is said that although Zixiao won the battle that day, he was seriously injured, his cultivation was severely weakened, and his lifespan was greatly reduced Decrease, quite the situation of dying soon.
However, this is just a small-scale dissemination and speculation. No one dares to put it on the bright side. After all, it is an eighth-level celestial being, and it is also a powerful person who has just killed the same level of cultivation. Who dares to follow? He said in front of him that he was going to die soon, did he get impatient?
Even the founding ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, the founding emperor who has lived for thousands of years, although he had his own guesses about the news, he didn't dare to really try it out, for fear of triggering a counterattack from Zixiao Xianzun.
When the time comes to fight, the old emperor is not sure whether he can beat Immortal Zixiao who killed the Demon King Peng, he is a ruthless man.
So the old emperor just chose to wait and see what happened. Anyway, as a celestial immortal, he had a long life span of ten thousand years, far longer than the thousand-year lifespan of an earth immortal, and had enough time to consume.
As a celestial being, compared with the lifespan of a thousand years or so, the old emperor still belongs to the child stage of human beings, and he has enough time to squander and wait.
This is waiting for more than a hundred years, as long as there is no news in my heart. No, there are still some extremely vague and hazy news, but no one has ever seen Zixiao Immortal Venerable make a move in an upright manner, and has never appeared in front of people again.
However, the old emperor did not dare to comment on the fact that these news were really conclusive, so he still lurked.
Until now, a rebel appeared in the south of the empire he built, and that rebel was so bold that he dared to openly do things that he didn't dare to do, recruiting those powerful clans, and those who refused to obey would die.
And this thing was done successfully, but it was far from over, and if it didn't survive the attack of the Zixiao faction, no matter how prosperous the Yu Kingdom is now, it's just a flash in the pan.
But in the anticipation of everyone, Zixiao Xianzun did not make a move. This news aroused speculation in everyone's mind and became excited.
As the No. 1 Immortal Dao sect in the Ming Dynasty, the Zixiao Sect is naturally considered to be the best in its own strength. However, with the development of these years, the Zixiao faction has actually gradually declined, and the talents have been reduced from generation to generation. It has been more than a hundred years since there has been no amazing genius.
Up to now, the strength of the Zixiao faction is known to everyone, but it is only three earth immortals, plus more than 60 celestial masters.
Although the strength is strong, it is far from being able to suppress all the cultivation circles of Daming.
The entire cultivation world of the Ming Dynasty has long coveted the resources that the Zixiao Sect currently possesses.
It's just that in the past, considering the prestige of Zixiao Immortal Venerable, even though he had small thoughts in his heart, he didn't dare to say it outright, so he could only bury his greedy heart deep in the bottom, secretly waiting for the opportunity.
Now Zixiao Xianzun is very likely to have fallen, and as soon as the news spread that he was no longer in the world, all the ambitious people suddenly became active.
You know, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the Zixiao faction's occupation of the huge resources. In the past, they were not strong enough to dare to make a move.
But now I see the Zixiao faction falling into the mortal world, and they are at the same level as them. Although they are much stronger in this class in terms of strength, they are not in the realm that they could only see but not touch in the past.
That's enough.
When a small faction is as powerful as Shen Xingdao, it is naturally far from enough to deal with the Zixiao faction who is in trouble.
But if several sects with the same level of gods and stars form an alliance around them and launch a siege to the Zixiao faction, then the strength is absolutely sufficient.
Ever since, although Zhong Yu had taken drastic measures to recruit those small, medium and small factions in the south, he watched with joy as his strength continued to grow.
But the other sects of the Ming Dynasty in the north didn't have the heart to take care of these trivial matters, and their energy was concentrated on how to get a share of the banquet that annexed the Zixiao sect's territory.
