Chapter 1152 - 1156: Emerging from Seclusion
Influenced by the ’Supreme Scholar’s Seat,’ figures like Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Li Yuanba, Xiang Yu, and others awakened, unleashing terrifying auras that stirred the winds and clouds across the sky.
Only Yu Qian, Bai Qi, Lv Bu, and Mencius remained in seclusion.
Actually, Mencius was also preparing to awaken.
But upon sensing the ’Supreme Scholar’s Seat,’ he decided to continue his retreat.
Under everyone’s gaze, the ’Supreme Scholar’s Seat’ transformed into a stream of light, entering Mencius’s body.
Immediately, a vast and mighty Confucian aura erupted from Mencius, distorting time and space to form a world constructed of scholarly energy.
In this world, a grand Confucian master sat cross-legged on a stone platform, holding a classic Confucian text, imparting wisdom.
Beneath him, countless Confucian scholars sat attentively, listening closely to the teachings of Confucian Dao.
In the great hall, Mencius stood and bowed to Qin Wudao, then sat cross-legged, beginning to comprehend the inheritance in the ’Supreme Scholar’s Seat,’ with a calm expression and steady aura.
He planned to seize this opportunity to strive for the Pre-saint Realm!
Boom!
During Mencius’s deep retreat, three more terrifying auras shot skyward, imbued with supreme saintly might, suppressing the universe.
The first pillar of light enveloped in five-colored divine light, emanating the power to mend the heavens.
The second pillar of light, surged with the force of Hongmeng’s ghostly deities, exploded with an unrivaled battle intent, warring across the heavens.
The third pillar of light, churned with the way of Hongmeng’s slaughter, surged with a bloody light, transforming into a vast ocean of blood, stirring waves thousands strong, slaughtering all beings.
"They’ve broken through!"
Cao Cao looked up, his eyes flickering, revealing a hint of joy.
This retreat had seen him advance to the late Pre-saint stage!
But thinking about the Qin Dynasty’s enemies numbering as many as ten Quasi-Saints, there remained considerable pressure.
Now, with Yu Qian, Lv Bu, and Bai Qi’s breakthrough to Pre-saint, he could secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Within the imperial hall, Qin Wudao seeing the three pillars of light, smiled slightly, and did not immediately emerge from retreat, ordering the system, "Summon Ran Min!"
The Martial King Ran Min!
In the vast history of Huaxia, he was indeed a legendary figure!
During the chaos of the Five Hu!
The invaders of the Central Plains treated Han people no better than pigs and dogs, wantonly massacring, leading to northern desolation and the southward migration of attire and crowns.
At that time, the Central Plains were lit with war flames, cries of distress filled the land, and the northern Han population dwindled to just over six million, barren land stretching for a thousand miles, pushing the Han people to the brink of survival.
At this moment, Ran Min stood up and issued an order, saving the Han nation!
This order was the ’Order to Slaughter Huns.’
It comprised three main points.
Firstly: All internal and external rebels who dare wield weapons shall be beheaded!
Secondly: Those who are in sync with officials may stay, those who are not may leave at will!
Thirdly: Anyone who presents a Hun head at Fengyang Gate, shall see civilian officials rise three ranks, and military positions all honored at the gate!
Moreover, Ran Min’s martial prowess was undoubtedly not weaker than Lv Bu, Zhao Yun, Xiang Yu, and others.
Rumble!
Above the Nine Heavens, winds and clouds swirled.
Blood-red clouds gathered from all directions, blocking the sun.
An aura of terror descended from the heavens, laced with a strong murderous intent that annihilated the realms of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, slaughtering the Four Directions and Eight Extremes.
"Servant Ran Min, pays respect to Your Majesty!"
A warrior clad in armor, standing eight feet tall, wielding a double-edged spear in his left hand and a halberd in his right, stood atop the celestial dome.
His face was rugged, his gaze sharp, filled with a terrifying killing intent.
A fierce baleful aura emanated from his body.
At this time.
Qin Wudao emerged from the imperial hall, looking up at the sky.
Name: Ran Min!
Cultivation: Early Immortal Lord!
Cultivation Technique: Killing Hu’s Alien Slaughter Technique!
Divine Skills: Kill Hu’s Three Orders, Blood Slaughters Thousands, Fatal Strike, Annihilate the Universe...
Introduction: Styled Yongceng, nicknamed Jinu, established the Ran Wei regime, issued the ’Order to Slaughter Huns,’ saving the Central Plain Han people!
"Rise!"
"Issue orders to appoint Ran Min as a Second-Rank General, allowed to form an army. I look forward to your achievements when attacking the demon race!"
Qin Wudao appraised Ran Min, speaking with a smile.
"As you command!"
Ran Min saluted, glanced at the three pillars of light reaching into the clouds, showing a trace of battle intent, then landed on the ground.
"System, reward ’Furious Sea Divine Title’ to Wang Jian, reward ’Dragon Arena’s Mind’ to Wang Yangming!"
Qin Wudao continued commanding.
As soon as the words fell.
Two streams of light pierced the sky, landing respectively in Wang Jian and Wang Yangming’s bodies.
Upon obtaining the ’Divine Title’ and ’Mind,’ both showed a joyful face, quickly paying respectful homage to Qin Wudao, then returned to the secret chamber, continuing their retreat and cultivation.
"They should be about to emerge from retreat!"
After handling these fifteen years of rewards, Qin Wudao looked towards the three pillars of light, waiting quietly.
About four hours later.
Yu Qian, Lv Bu, and Bai Qi successfully broke through to Pre-saint, and the heavens responded by bestowing countless auspicious omens.
Just then, the ’Great Dao’s Creation’ concluded, and the Qin Dynasty’s imperium, dormant for fifteen years, regained its vitality.
On the Great Wall.
Twelve golden figures pierced the sky, returning to Imperial Capital.
"Withdraw troops!"
The Ninth Heaven.
At the frontier of Dongsheng Divine Continent, Emperor Tian commanded with a grim expression after seeing three new Pre-saint powers within the Qin Dynasty’s realm.
Without the Qin Dynasty’s imperium, they could not breach the interior for humanity even with maximum effort.
Especially, now with Qin Dynasty’s ministers emerging, facing greater pressure.
Continuing the conflict would only result in encirclement and defeat.
Bai Ze, the Buddha Lord, the Dao Lord, the Military Lord, An Tianxin, and other Quasi-Sage Great Powers also understood this logic, swiftly disengaging their opponents and starting the retreat.
When seeing the demon alliance retreat, the Human Ancestor did not pursue but instead looked towards the Eighth Heaven, showing a faint smile.
Finally...enduring the toughest time!
"Emperor Tian, you failed again!"
The Human Ancestor, in great spirits, turned to look at Emperor Tian fleeing in embarrassment, laughing loudly.
This time, his laughter was extraordinarily hearty.
Not far away, Emperor Tian’s face darkened, clenched his fists, and coldly said, "Human Ancestor, do you think you’ve won? The ’heavens’ above are still not belonging to mankind!"
Upon hearing this, Human Ancestor’s smile faded, his mood heavy once more.
Heavens!
It is humanity’s true enemy!
...
After the emergence of the Qin Dynasty’s ministers.
The Qin Dynasty’s intelligence agency began operating normally.
Reports flowed into the palace, laid before Qin Wudao’s imperial desk.
"Issue orders to convene a court meeting!"
After reading two reports, Qin Wudao frowned slightly, commanded coldly.
Soon.
Civil and military officials gathered in the imperial hall, everyone’s expressions slightly unpleasant, especially within the ranks of generals, murderous intent surrounded, poised to stir the heavens upon eruption.
"Dear ministers, during our retreat, mankind has fought the demon alliance army for five years!"
Qin Wudao sat solemnly on the throne, speaking with authority.
"Kill!"
Bai Qi stepped forward, saluting with advice.
The generals, including Zhao Yun, Lv Bu, Yue Fei, Han Xin, Huo Qubing, brightened their eyes, eager to prove themselves.
After their retreat, they were eager to spar and test their might.
"Your Majesty, I sense something strange about this war!"
Among the ranks of civil officials, Zhuge Liang frowned, stepped to the center of the hall, and offered his advice.
