Volume 1, Chapter 59: Redeeming the Attack Reflection Card! Zhu Youjian Bombards the Sage!
Seeing Zhu Youjian stubbornly cling to his own course, Xu Fu curled the corner of his mouth into a cold sneer: "This Sage acknowledges that you possess some unusual tricks, but being able to withstand one blow from this Sage does not mean you can weather a second."
"As a Saint, even though it is merely a wisp of divine consciousness that has descended, it is more than enough to overturn your entire realm of Shengming!"
In the past, whenever people offered her compliments, Wang Shishi would feel nothing but revulsion, for they harbored malicious intentions and gazed at her with bizarre looks. Ever since then, Wang Shishi never dared to show her true face to the world; instead, she always kept herself smeared with dirt, looking as slovenly as possible, all to secure a safe footing for survival.
For hundreds of years, this nether cave of the Five Elements Sect had remained unknown to outsiders simply because all those who inadvertently stumbled into it never returned. Yet he could not afford to let this matter slide. Since this person had descended to the bottom of the Undrownable Lake, what if he miraculously survived and managed to make his way back?
The current situation had completely shifted, with Zhao Gou seizing the initiative while Crown Prince Zhao Huan was reduced to a passive stance. To turn the tides of heaven and earth, the only option was to take decisive action and overwhelm Zhao Gou in one fell swoop, thereby securing a chance of victory. If things continued along this trajectory, not only would the meticulous efforts Zhao Huan had cultivated over many years be utterly destroyed, but even his position as Crown Prince would become irredeemably precarious.
"What? A signal sent by Enju? And the location is right inside this wharf?" Ling Yun stared at the message on his phone, his brows instantly knitting together.
Creeping closer, Li Hao casually dispatched a sentry. At this moment, he was less than eight hundred meters away from the tank regiment; getting inside was merely a matter of time.
Having recaptured Yingzhou, Zhao Gou ordered military strategist Wu Yong to deploy a massive army into the territory of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Zhao Gou also stationed a full ten thousand troops there to guard against any incursions by the Liao forces. Meanwhile, within the capital city of Yingzhou, Zhao Gou was discussing the strategic plan for his next steps.
He wished he could swallow Ye Nan alive on the spot. Yet he knew that if he were to seek out Ye Nan for another battle, the outcome would remain entirely unchanged.
The edges of these stones were not particularly sharp; especially the corners, which were remarkably smooth. Not only that, but many areas on the stones were distinctly elliptical.
Furthermore, Fireworks Drifting Clouds had spoken the truth—judging from the data on the forums, the assassin class indeed dealt the lowest damage.
What manner of person was the Master of the Myriad Dao Sect? The moment he caught the malicious glares of the two elders, he immediately guessed their intentions. If they truly dared to provoke the formidable deity sitting beside him, a splendid spectacle was guaranteed to unfold; as for the various peak masters, he cared nothing about them at all.
Throughout the three years of the catastrophe, Han Luojia had not tasted meat for a very long time, especially canned beef with such a fresh and savory flavor. Nowadays, all kinds of seasonings were exceedingly scarce; even if one were fortunate enough to hunt a wild ox, they could only sprinkle on a bit of salt—or sometimes even omit the salt entirely—and consume it in its raw, natural state.
"Judging by our position, we are closest to the Red Wild Mercenary Corps, but I don't think a mercenary group is a good choice. Joining that newly formed alliance might be a better option," Tang Tian said.
Having merely glanced at Murong Zhao just a moment ago, he had noticed faint bluish shadows beneath the latter's eyes as well. Could it be that he, too, had spent the entire night without resting in his tent?
Upon breaking through into the Qi-Absorption stage, one could absorb the vital energy of heaven and earth into the body on a massive scale to reinforce the meridians. During this process, the body's acupoints would be unblocked. Only after the acupoints were cleared could vital energy course freely through the meridians.
Could it be that this tall, heroic man lying right before her was... by any chance, a high-level artificial intelligence?
Li Li hurriedly eased his foot off the gas pedal and slammed down hard on the brakes. With a harsh, screeching sound of friction, the off-road vehicle came to a halt. Seeing the vehicle stop, the soldiers rushed forward instantly to encircle it, each holding a rifle aimed squarely at the car.
I was somewhat bewildered. What on earth was wrong with this burial garment? As long as it did not interfere with our tomb robbing, wasn't that enough?
However, these were merely legends after all. Some claimed that consuming a certain type of soil could grant immortality, yet those who had spent half a lifetime searching for it never found it, and ended up dead all the same. Regardless of what treasures one sought or what tombs one robbed, the endeavors carried immense perils—perils that could claim a person's life at any given moment.
