Chapter 675: Middle Stage of Refining Void
Seeking Change for Five Hundred and Forty-three Years, September 18th.
Li Tianyu and Li Tianxia fought in the desert, and the fifth prince of Lingtian won slightly. Li Tianxia was defeated and disappeared.
After nearly a thousand years of twists and turns, the Lingtian Dynasty finally ushered in a new life and a new ruler was elected. Soon Li Tianyu ascended the throne and made major rectifications in the army, incense, people's livelihood and other areas.
Li Tianyu wore a royal robe and met the mother of the river. As the king of a country, his temperament changed drastically. Li Tianyu did not dare to compare himself with his father's talent. If Li Shanhe was a talent who led a region in his heyday. Then Li Tianyu was a king who had experienced reforms and became a mortal.
If he could do it well, he could also leave a name for eternity. In Lingtian City, in the main hall, Zhao Qing and Si Nian walked together and faced Li Tianyu head-on.
Si Nian said with a smile: "Brother Li, you just succeeded to the throne, how can you be so extravagant and unrighteous?"
Li Tianyu was dressed in all manners, which could be described as extremely luxurious. He had been used to extravagance since he was a child, and he had no intention of changing this habit. Li Tianyu said: "Sister Si Nian, please don't laugh at me. A monarch should have the manners of a monarch." After that, he turned around gently, and the luxury of the emperor was undoubtedly revealed.
Li Tianyu said: "Master Mu, now that the war has stopped, I, Ling Tian, should also cultivate and stop the war. In this war, 80% of your temple was damaged, and I really feel sorry for it. I want to build another temple for you, promote the mother of the river, and establish you as the mother of the country again. The incense system will be under your jurisdiction."
Si Nian was shocked. You must know that Ling Tian has survived the war and completed his rebirth. At this time, the incense gods benefit the most. Li Tianyu's promise can be said to be full of sincerity. Si Nian looked at his master.
But Zhao Qing shook his head lightly and refused to build another temple and promote the mother of the river. She told Li Tianyu to let everything take its course. Whether the incense is prosperous or not is related to her, but it has nothing to do with her.
After Zhao Qing finished speaking, he was about to take Si Nian away. When he walked out of the hall, he suddenly stopped and warned Li Tianyu that if he was incompetent, someone would come to find him.
After hearing this, Li Tianyu shuddered all over. As Li Tianxia's opponent, how could he not know the key to his victory. He lost the incense fight that day. But because the boatman had a personal grudge with Li Changxiao, Li Changxiao managed to kill him.
As a result, most of Li Tianxia's luck was dissipated. In the final battle, because it was a battle between the luck of the two princes and princesses, the incense gods of the two sides also participated in some way with the incense magic.
Soldiers fight with swords and guns, while incense gods make use of the wind and clouds, the weather, the terrain, and the means. Wars require the right time, the right terrain, and the right people. But in terms of "the right people", Li Tianxia has a slight advantage. But if we combine the "time" and "location", Li Tianyu will win.
The final result of the decisive battle is not difficult to guess, and before Zhao Qing left, he said "someone will come to find him", and the first person Li Tianyu thought of was the swordsman in white.
He always appeared suddenly and disappeared suddenly, and he could not be found, but it seemed that there were traces of him everywhere. Li Tianyu thought to himself: "Damn it, I'm already the emperor, why is there still a sword hanging over my head?" He shuddered, complained, and was extremely helpless.
After thinking about it, he decided to take the initiative and vigorously promote Hemu. Although he didn't need to establish her as the mother of the country, he also wanted to restore the incense of Hemu to its former glory.
Li Tianyu thought: "Although He Mu is indifferent, she didn't ask too much about Sister Si Nian's help to me. She didn't want it, but I insisted on giving it to her. And the reform is lonely, but the system of warriors and incense is really very good. The human race is at the critical moment of survival, and I should try my best to recommend it." So he waved his hand and issued several decrees in succession.
Thinking of "Tian Ji Dao", he was also secretly grateful, and the intention to make friends with that distant country was very strong. But he had just ascended the throne, so everything could not be rushed, and he could only take it slowly.
...
Li Changxiao met someone in the North Desert. It was Li Tianxia who escaped by luck after a complete defeat. She was not as noble as before. Although her clothes were still neat, she was thin and looked very embarrassed.
After seeing Li Changxiao, Li Tianxia cursed, thinking that Li Changxiao was here to kill her. No longer resisting, she simply knelt down on the spot and waited for death. But Li Changxiao only glanced at her and then slowly headed north again.
Li Tianxia felt insulted and chased after Li Changxiao to ask him to kill her. Li Changxiao was too lazy to pay attention and walked on his own. He was really annoyed by the noise and told Li Tianxia that he just happened to pass by and had no interest in the fight for the throne between the two.
Li Tianxia was convinced and kept silent all the way. One day, Li Changxiao built a bonfire in the desert and threw scorpions, venomous snakes, cacti and other sundries into the fire to burn. When they were thoroughly cooked inside and out, he picked them out with a long sword and prepared to eat them every time.
Li Tianxia finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to talk to Li Changxiao. She changed her previous attitude and called Li Changxiao "brother" and wanted Li Changxiao to help her. The favor was simple, just to ask Li Changxiao to kill Li Tianyu.
Once Li Tianyu died, Li Tianxia had another chance to make a comeback. However, Li Changxiao refused. Ling Tian finally settled down. If he killed Li Tianyu at this time, it would be a real sin. Moreover, Li Tianyu had no grudge against him. Although he had a lot of blood on his hands, it was all for a reason. He never killed people randomly.
Li Tianxia was distraught after hearing this. She felt completely hopeless and had no goals at all. That day, the two of them fought a decisive battle. Li Tianxia was defeated but escaped by luck. However, in the struggle for the throne, only one person can survive since ancient times. Li Tianxia had great ambitions, but she would be backfired and her life would not last long.
She followed Li Changxiao aimlessly. After walking for several days, she seemed to have experienced the scattered Taoism, and her Taoism was scattered little by little. Her body became weaker and weaker.
Li Changxiao saw it all and sighed softly. The battle for the throne was so cruel, and the battle for the avenue was so cruel.
One day, Li Changxiao drank a few sips of wine and saw that Li Tianxia was dying. He felt compassion and took the initiative to talk to her about some past events to relieve her depression.
The two were not familiar with each other. Their personalities and experiences were completely different. Li Changxiao chatted for a while, but found that their opinions were quite different. He shrugged and ended the topic.
After a long silence, Li Tianxia suddenly asked Li Changxiao whether the sword light that split the clouds on the day of Li Shanhe's death was from Li Changxiao's hand, and asked Li Changxiao why he did it.
Li Changxiao told Li Tianxia the whole story of that day. Li Tianxia sighed softly and said nothing more. The desert night was extremely cold. When Li Changxiao woke up the next day and went on his way again, Li Tianxia had no strength to follow him. She only sighed and lay on the ground and did not get up.
"Alas."
Li Changxiao looked back. The battle of the Great Dao was too cruel. The loser could only become a withered skeleton. The victory or defeat was only a matter of thought.
He retracted his gaze and continued to move forward. A gust of wind and sand swept in, and even the footprints were buried.
Li Changxiao suddenly lay down on the ground, abandoning the truth and seeking the false. He saw the dynasty reborn and the overlord passed away. He discussed the Dao with the ancestor Mu, crossed the bridge of the heart, and seized the Dao fruit.
These kinds of insights are enough to make one step further.
This step directly enters the middle stage of the refining void.
(Recently, there have been a lot of things going on, and it’s been quite annoying. Sigh, my creative state may not be very good. I want to tell you in advance that the next part is about the boss lady. Well… the boss lady’s story is actually a ‘side story’. I originally wanted to write a lot of side stories, and slowly write them down, so that the protagonist will see many people’s complete lives, intertwined and parallel, but I was afraid that it would be too bloated, so I deleted a lot.
After the boss lady, it should be the South China Sea chapter. Of course, there may be some inspiration during this period, and I can insert something else, but the general route will be like this.
In reality, I have lost some ‘calmness’ because of some disputes, so I can only adjust slowly by myself.
There is only one update today, please don’t blame me (∩︵∩))
