Kunlun one millet

Chapter 365

Zhao Mi still didn't enter Jiuyou Snow Valley in the end. These days, the descendants of races outside the world are more or less wary of the outside world, not to mention that Jiuyou Snow Valley is farther away from the world than the Eternal Emerald Tree.

In addition to confirming the situation of Jiuyou Snow Valley with his own eyes, Zhao Mi's trip has now been confirmed, and he will remind him that he will not force the other party to do anything.

As for the matter of imparting the formula, it is not only a little bit, but also for the convenience of paying attention to Jiuyou Snow Valley in the future.It is still hard to say what kind of consequences these Snowborn will cause when they try to revive their ancestors, and what kind of changes will be caused to Kunlun Continent.

Zhao Mi passed on the "Zhenyuan Purple Book" that he summed up and created to Jiuyou Snow Valley. In the future, if they practiced it after comprehending it, he would also be able to sense it.

This kind of induction passed down through the dharma lineage is also the merit of the immortal family. It is not limited to familiarity with the other party, and there is no need to call the induction. As long as you are enlightened in practice, you will form a subtle connection with Zhao Mi.

Just like the three elders of Chiyun, even if they claim to dislike the immortal family, they are the descendants of Dongdan Yuanjun, and the connection based on the lineage inheritance is difficult to break.

The "Zhenyuan Purple Book" is the result of Zhao Mi combing through all kinds of past cultivation and testimonials in the past years, combined with the results of various immortal methods, it can be described as profound, rigorous and complete.

Undoubtedly, this method of immortality is based on the transmission of the Lingxiao, and integrates the subtleties of "Shuyao Wuzang", "Nine Heavens Ziwen Dan Zhang", "Su Mai Dan Xin Jue", etc. At the same time, discard the chaff and save the essence, abandon the use of complicated techniques, and only seek the achievements of ascending to immortality and opening up caves.

Zhao Shu himself did not intend to establish a sect. For him now, "Zhenyuan Zishu" is more like he created it to commemorate Yuqing Goddess and Lingxiao.

Gradually, Zhao Mi can understand the state of mind of mending the sky with his body and protecting all living beings in Kunlun Continent.For him, there is no distinction between high and low among all beings in the world, so he doesn't plan to open a separate school, but he must teach it to anyone who has a predestined relationship.

Leaving the northern border, Zhao Shu and Lu Wangji turned to the southwest and headed for Xitu.

The terrain in the west of Kunlun is undulating, and there are many high mountains. There are many majestic and majestic ones, and there are even many mountains that stretch for thousands of miles.

However, compared to the fragmented terrain and dense pestilence in the southern land, the western land has many vast and flat lands, and is nourished by rivers and rivers, and its products are as rich as the middle land.

However, the Western Land is close to the Heyuan mountains and thousands of miles of quicksand. There are hundreds of large and small Rong and Di tribes scattered there. They often plunder merchants and travelers.

After the Tianxia Dynasty established the Dingding, it sent a large army several times to conquer, and finally forced the Rongdi of all tribes to retreat into the mountains and flee to quicksand.As a result, the Western Land has been stable for many years, gradually becoming densely populated, and business travel is prosperous.

Later, the four directions were restless, and the Tianxia imperial court sent generals out of the town. Among them, the Zhenxi general opened a mansion and built a tooth, and monopolized one side.

In order to suppress the local tyrants and powerful families in the west, General Zhenxi at that time had already begun to recruit Rong and Di Fan soldiers with money, silk, money and food, but unexpectedly, this move would become the source of future disasters.

The Baixiang King rose during this process, and his origin is not very clear. It is said that he has Rongdi blood, and he is not a wealthy family.Except for the master of the Xian family, the outside world doesn't know what kind of monk he is. They only know that after the general of Zhenxi established himself in Yaochi Kingdom, the young King of Baixiang joined him to accumulate military achievements, and he was able to rise to a high position step by step. .

Later, in Yaochi Kingdom, there was an old-fashioned scene where brothers, uncles and nephews fought against each other. King Baixiang relied on his tyrannical cultivation, and was favored by all parties at the same time. He also took the opportunity to accumulate power. Power and position, rule the roost.

However, Yaochi Kingdom was also seriously injured in this civil strife, and at that time, it happened that Xuan Ju sent troops to the south, Yaochi Kingdom was also affected, and lost a lot of land.The Baixiang King himself was busy traveling around to fight, and had no time to participate in the subsequent battle of killing the dragon. He was only responsible for containing part of the Xuanming Kingdom's troops in the west.

Baixiangwang himself is brave and strong, and it is in this process that he gradually gained fame.He is not good at governing the country, and he is not well-versed in military strategy when he leads troops to fight, but when he encounters an enemy army, he often takes the lead and charges forward, and he kills the enemy with his own bravery. The deeds of tearing apart the enemy's formation, many monks with superb swordsmanship are incapable of this ability, making it shocking Kunlun.

After the battle of killing the dragon, the king of Baixiang began to work on the inheritance of immortality in the west land area, which is somewhat similar to Liang Tao at the other end of Kunlun continent.

However, Liang Tao borrowed the name of the system of the museum, and at the same time let the Chongxuan Pavilion continue to grow, and he was somewhat eclectic, making the Difei Mountain Chongxuan Pavilion a master of Taoism and immortality.

The Baixiang King's approach is more about killing and aggression. The reason is that he is dissatisfied with the very prosperous belief in the Holy Mother of Yaochi in the Western Lands, and openly ordered the destruction of the statues and shrines of the Holy Mother of Yaochi in various places.

It is a long-standing tradition for people in the western lands to believe in the Holy Mother of Yaochi, not to mention that many sects of cultivating immortals respect the Fairy of Yaochi and Guishan as their ancestors.

It's just that in Zhao Mi's view, Baixiang Wang's move was more aimed at targeting the powerful families of the local tyrants in the west.He claims to be the bravest in Kunlun Continent, but the governance of the country is not based on bravery.

However, the customs of Rong and Di are different from those of the western lands that have been transformed by kings for a long time, so frequent conflicts are inevitable, ranging from lack of laws and regulations, difficulties in tax collection, to outbreaks of civil uprisings.

In addition, since the Tianxia Dynasty, the way of immortality has flourished, and various sects of cultivating immortals in the western lands have communicated with ordinary people. There are deep entanglements inside and outside the world of mortals. The powerful and powerful families are not only sticking to the Wubao Manor, but also receiving the blessings of immortal cultivators. trend.

In the end, the conflict between the two sides was difficult to resolve, to the point of fighting each other.The various sects of the Immortal Dao of the Western Lands also joined forces, but the Baixiang King is very powerful, it can be said that he is invincible and invincible, and none of the various sects of the Western Lands is his opponent.

Now that the two sides are tearing their faces apart, the King of Baixiang is no longer afraid, and simply overthrows all the sects of the Immortal Dao in the Western Land, and leads Rongdi to kill monks and capture the dojo.

As a result, the various sects of the Immortal Dao in the Western Land fell into a slump, and some sects were simply destroyed. Even the Immortal Dao sects that were not directly hostile to the King of Hundred Phases, such as Fengming Valley, were also affected.

The actions of King Baixiang caused many monks to flee directly from Yaochi Kingdom, or turned the light into darkness, and used the crowded market as a cover to fight guerrilla attacks with powerful and powerful families from all over the place.

Although no one dared to question the mighty authority of King Baixiang, after Yaochi Kingdom experienced several upheavals, its national strength declined greatly. Although King Baixiang was strong alone, he still had no way to separate himself when the five kingdoms were fighting. Dealing with various battlefields, he has to be exhausted, and domestic governance is even more messy.

Although the Baixiang King was reluctant to admit it, he still had to obey the general trend and recognize the local power of the Western local tyrants in exchange for their loyalty and taxation.

Later, King Baixiang chose the method of marriage and married women from several rich families, so as to roughly control Yaochi Kingdom, but his most trusted subordinates are still Zhu Rong from the mountains and quicksand in the west.

Before the drastic change in Dongshengdu, King Baixiang had already begun to arrange for himself to replace the Holy Mother of Yaochi, asking the people of the western lands to worship him as a god, worship him with incense, and wantonly build temples and palaces.

It is absurd to regard living people as gods and enshrine them, but the Baixiang King's move may be to better gather manpower and material resources and consolidate his authority.

However, during the Battle of Difei Mountain, King Baixiang had his right arm cut off by Zhao Mi, and this incident became known to the people of Yaochi Kingdom. It may be that He Qingchen deliberately sent people to spread the news, just to shake people's hearts The image of Baixiang Wang being brave and invincible.

The Baixiang King had his arm cut off, and he had to recuperate for many years. At his level of cultivation, the cut off of his arm was not only a physical injury, but also a serious damage to his foundation.

In order to concentrate on self-cultivation, King Baixiang threw many government affairs to the lucky ministers he promoted.These lucky ministers are not very capable of governing the country, but they are not small at taking advantage of opportunities to make money.

The result is that the state affairs are becoming more and more desolate, and Yaochi's national taxes are so heavy that it cannot be increased, forcing the powerful and powerful families from all over the place to raise their troops to rebel again.

When He Qingchen was alive, he also secretly sent people to contact with these big clans in the western lands, thus causing Yaochi country to fall into civil strife, and successfully contained this powerful neighbor in the west.

Now that there is Xiong Kingdom destroying Jiuli and conquering Dongtu, anyone can understand that the next one is to deal with Yaochi Kingdom.

However, in the past few years, the Baixiang King has often failed to retreat, which gave Xiongguo a good opportunity to gradually encroach westward. Some Western land clans simply changed their flags and even took the initiative to send their nephews to the imperial capital.

And three years after conquering the Eastern Land, Youxiong Kingdom officially began to recruit a large army of soldiers and horses to attack Yaochi Kingdom in the west, and took the righteous name of "killing violence and suppressing the army", which immediately won the response of people all over Yaochi Kingdom.

In addition, many Western monks who fled to Xiong Country in the early years participated in it.They either wanted to avenge their hatred, or they were given great rewards after seeing Chi Yun all belonged to them, and they wanted to revive the sect's inheritance.Seeing that the Yaochi Kingdom was about to fall, they took advantage of this opportunity and joined the army one after another.

As a result, the Xiong Kingdom's offensive was comparable to a destructive force, and some Western soil rebels even rushed faster than the Xiong Kingdom's army.

Faced with such a situation, the tribes of Rong and Di, who were loyal to King Baixiang, also wanted to withdraw.They never had any affection for Yao Chi Country, since this land boundary cannot be defended, at worst they will return to the Western Wilderness Mountains or the Land of Quicksand.

But there are also many Rongdi tribes who are used to enjoying it, and are unwilling to give up their wealth and flee back to the bitter cold land.After some debate, the Rong and Di tribes simply ransacked and plundered, taking away all the property and people that could be taken away, and set fire to the city before leaving, so that only Xiongguo occupied a piece of scorched earth and white land.

Only in this way, the tribes of Rong and Di have completely provoked the anger of the public. Those Western land clans and civil and military bureaucrats who had taken refuge in the Baixiang King in the early years even became the first targets of being robbed and killed.

As a result, before the Xiong Kingdom soldiers and horses invaded the hinterland of Yaochi Kingdom, infighting broke out in the court hall of Yaochi Kingdom first, and it was completely chaotic.

But at this time, there were still some people in Yaochi who stepped forward on their own initiative, and that was the two sons of King Baixiang.

Baixiang Wang has many wives and concubines, but he likes the new and dislikes the old. His wives and concubines give birth to children, but he has no intention of nurturing and discipline, and turns around to find a new love.Therefore, the children of the Baixiang King often rely heavily on the power of the mother clan, and they are also those Western land clans who choose to rely on the Baixiang King.

For the majority of people in Yaochi Kingdom, these big families who chose to take refuge in Baixiang Wang are no different from traitors, and their power and status are completely dependent on Baixiang Wang.

The King of Baixiang has not been able to retreat for many years, which has made their status shaky. Now that the country is about to die, they are not even allowed to switch to Youxiong Kingdom, because Youxiong Kingdom has mentioned them as traitors in the crusade, and they are destined to die.

Since they are all dead anyway, these great clans must make a last-ditch effort. They push out the two sons of Baixiangwang, and then use generous gifts to win over some of the hesitant Rongdi tribes, mobilize the people who can command at the moment, and carry out the act of fortifying the wall and clearing the country, and stick to the pass. The city fortress, with the help of deep ditches and high fortifications, resists the soldiers and horses of Xiongguo.

This move really worked. Xiong Guo had almost encountered no decent resistance because of its rapid advance at the beginning, so it was inevitable that he underestimated the enemy.When the vanguard soldiers and horses collided with the strong city of Yaochi Kingdom, they were severely injured immediately, and even met with a violent counterattack, many of the soldiers, armor and horses were lost.

It is also because of this victory that the chaotic and turbulent people in Yaochi have settled down a bit. The tribes of Rong and Di, who were clamoring to flee to the west, felt that the situation had improved and they didn't need to leave in a hurry.

King Baixiang himself did not have great talents in governing the country, but his two sons had some talents. They successfully persuaded several powerful Rong and Di troops, and led light cavalry sharp warriors to detour and attack several fortresses, which greatly improved the situation. Boost the morale of the army.

But even so, it cannot change the strength of the two countries.Now the Xiong Kingdom is very strong, with many soldiers and generals, abundant food and grass, and many immortal cultivators to help, a slight loss cannot shake its foundation.

On the other hand, in Yaochi Country, because of what King Baixiang did back then, there are no immortal cultivators willing to help. At best, some heretics take refuge here, and most of them can't be counted on.

In the early years, King Baixiang subdued a few big monsters in the mountains of the Western Wilderness for his own drive.But without Baixiang Wang himself, these big monsters would not listen to others' orders at all, and even wanted to see the fall of Yaochi Kingdom, so they simply watched from the sidelines.

Therefore, after a few months of persistence, Yaochi Kingdom, which had seen some improvement, took a sharp turn for the worse again. No matter how talented the two sons of King Baixiang are, they are now hopeless.

After several fortresses were breached, Yaochi Kingdom's last resistance fell apart, and the tribes of Rong and Di no longer believed that the two sons of King Baixiang could turn the situation around, and decided to retreat westward.

But even so, these Rong and Di did not forget to loot wantonly, and the inside and outside of the Yaochi capital fell into the final madness. All that could be seen was killing.Corpses lay on top of one another, and no one cleared the old piles in the corners, attracting wild dogs and crows to eat, blood stained the roads red, and strong stench filled the streets and alleys.

This is the scene that Zhao Mi saw. In the distance, the sound of fighting and screaming could be heard, the flames were raging everywhere, the evil spirit lingered, and the resentment of dead souls echoed in every corner.

Zhao Mi didn't stop the chaos in the city, he just watched it indifferently, and at the same time silently channeled his great mana to transform countless souls of the dead, making them gradually calm down.
