Chapter 277 to 278: A person of great accomplishment is not

others are simply lamentations about the fragility of human life."Was the Zhang family exterminated by demons only yesterday"In the crowd, Cui Cheng looked at the posted notice, his brow furrowed sli...In the main hall.

Gu Xuanji resided at the top, and below him were hundreds of officials, both civil and military, gathered together.

This HTML tag doesn't contain any text to translate.

Since the State of Zhou colluded with demons, they have encroached upon my Qin territory many times. In two days, I will personally lead an army to conquer Zhou and defend the majesty of my Great Qin.

From the day I leave the capital, all state affairs will be temporarily handled by the Crown Prince.

However, the crown prince was still lacking in experience, and there were inevitably shortcomings in his handling of state affairs. Therefore, it was a burden on Wen Taishi and Fu Chengxiang to assist him from the side.

"Your humble servant obeys!"

Wen Qiu and Fu Yan, both bowed respectfully.

Other civil and military officials, their faces also did not show much change.

The emperor personally led the troops.

The Crown Prince presided over the court.

These things, the former they already knew, the latter also had some guess.

After all, the Crown Prince had already established

it several years ago.

The position of a monarch reveals much.

Now.

Gu Xuanji personally led the troops, and the Crown Prince was in charge of government affairs. Naturally, there were no problems.

Immediately.

Most eyes were focused on a young man standing at the front, dressed in a python robe and with an appearance as refined as jade.

The Crown Prince of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Ancient prosperity.

Speaking of.

The other party did not have much fame in court. As for outside the court, few people knew this name.

The reason is that this prince of the Qin Dynasty has always been low-key.

He rarely leaves his mansion.

Although it sounds unbelievable, it's quite normal.

The royal family of the Qin Dynasty.

Unlike royal families of other countries.

By this generation, there were not many truly talented and gifted offspring in the royal family. Many were just average.

Only this prince has a bit of talent and intelligence.

That is why.

His position as crown prince was practically unshakable.

In the absence of any competitors, Gu Xing didn't need to try too hard.

"Your son will definitely do his best and will never disappoint you!"

He clasped his fists and bowed his head. An imperceptible smile flickered across his face, hidden from view.

The day has finally arrived.

Having kept a low profile and honed my abilities for so many years, the time has now come for me to seize control.

Even though Gu Xing had made preparations early on, now he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and anticipation.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He glanced at him briefly.

Gu Xuanji said: "I do not ask that you have accomplishments, only that you avoid mistakes. Opening up territory is easy, but truly holding it is the most difficult."

You still have much to learn. In the future, please ask Master Wentaishi and Grand Tutor Fu for guidance. Do not be arrogant.”

"This son understands!"

Two days later.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The ancient Xuanji personally led his troops on an expedition.

Nearly all of the elites cultivated by the royal family have been mobilized. Even the Demon Suppression Division has powerful individuals accompanying them.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Besides.

The armies from various prefectures, who had arrived, were already stationed outside the city, waiting.

Now, at the command of a single order, hundreds of thousands of troops marched toward Lu'an Prefecture.

At the same time.

The message also spread completely.

Nan Youfu, Bai Yue City.

Since Shen Changqing obtained martial arts from the library, he entered a state of seclusion.

As for external affairs, I have hardly paid any attention to them.

What he has to do.

... is about fusion, constant fusion.

Merge all the martial arts on the panel into one powerful martial art.

Anything.

It is the essence that is valuable, not the abundance.

A powerful supernatural ability, its effects far surpass those of many weaker ones.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

This was the day.

Above the Demon Division of Beiyue City, dark clouds gathered and thunder rolled.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

That's it.

The people of Ba Yue City couldn't help but feel a sense of panic in their hearts.

Such a sight, they saw it for the first time.

Only a few people, such as Fu Lan and Xiang Yuan, could truly remain calm.

After all, the rumor that Shen Changqing's cultivation attracted heavenly thunder phenomena was no longer a secret.

Especially Fu Lan.

She had once stayed in Poshan City for a while, and was quite familiar with such phenomena.

“Shen Zhen’s methods are truly astonishing. Every time he cultivates, he causes a celestial phenomenon of thunder to appear. If it were an ordinary person, there would be no such possibility at all.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Xiang Yuan's face was full of emotion.

Only those who are powerful to a certain extent can cause heaven and earth to react to their every move.

Inside the garrison, he hadn't heard of anyone being able to do this.

Only Shen Changqing.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Every cultivation attempt can attract heavenly thunder phenomena, and even directly cause heavenly thunder to strike.

Here is the translation of " >" :

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Thus, it can be seen how strong the other party's strength is.

The vision did not last long.

It was just a day, and it has already disappeared.

In the room.

Shen Changqing opened his eyes, his mind sinking into himself, and looked at his own panel.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Mù Cāngwū!"

He murmured something under his breath.

This is an advanced version of Dimension Shifting, a much more powerful technique.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Before the fusion, Shen Changqing still had some worries. After the fusion, there was a possibility that the divine ability would lose the advantage of shrinking the ground into an inch.

It seems now.

Not only has it not lost the advantage of shrinking distances, but it has also made further improvements on its original foundation.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A morning visit to Beihai, an evening stroll in Cangwu.

Just hearing the name, one knows it's beyond comparison to shrinking the earth into an inch.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The only thing that made him regret was.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Mù Cāngwū's this supernatural power did not directly enter the realm of the first level of supernatural powers, but remained at the stage before entering.

This indicates.

To truly use this divine power, you'll still need to spend divine points to level it up.

Immediately.

As soon as Shen Changqing had a thought, one hundred divine power points were consumed, and he was pulled into an illusion.

Half a day.

This text is empty.

He withdrew from the dream and when he looked back at the panel, Mu Cangwu had already broken through from never entering to the first level of divine power.

The Transcendence Value has officially fallen below 200 points. After Mu Cangwu was promoted to the first level of Transcendence, there were no more options for improvement.

"After Divine Abilities, the minimum consumption is one hundred Divine Ability points. It seems like it's about time to find some mountain spirits."

Shen Changqing pondered to himself.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Spiritual power is still very important.

Otherwise, relying solely on oneself to comprehend divine abilities and strive for advancement would take an immeasurable amount of time.

If we say.

Not only would he need to spend time improving his cultivation, but also time comprehending divine abilities. Even if he borrowed another five hundred years from the heavens, he wouldn't be confident in breaking through his current realm.

In such a case, only by seeking the mountain spirit can it be compensated for.

The content within > is simply "

Open the door.

Shen Changqing arrived at the Hall of Deliberations.

Though I didn't see Fu Lan, Xiang Yuan was there, and there was also a familiar face.

Hello!

"Shen Zhen, it's good to see you again."

"I didn't expect to see Mr. Du here."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing smiled slightly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He was a little surprised.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Originally, I thought that since Baiyue City had such a big incident and Dul himself wasn't very strong, it was possible that he died at the hands of Tianxia Alliance.

Never expected.

But the other party appeared here.

However, considering the other party's status, it's not too strange to have means of self-preservation.

Tiān Chá Wèi.

The primary objective is self-preservation and intelligence gathering.

If you don't have a few tricks up your sleeve, you would have been uprooted long ago.

Looking at their faces, Shen Changqing said again, "What happened to Ba Yue City"

"The city of Bailyue didn't encounter any trouble. There was just an urgent report from the capital yesterday, and I intended to discuss it with General Shen."

Yuan shook his head, his expression somewhat grave.

Capital Urgent Report!

Shen Changqing was startled. The first thing that came to his mind was Gu Xuanji's personal expedition.

"Is it true that Your Majesty is leading the expedition in person"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“This is one thing, another thing is that the capital decided to reduce the garrison strength of Zhongyuan Mansion, while the border prefectures strengthened their garrison forces.”

"My Nanyu Prefecture could be considered a border prefecture. The capital means that they are preparing to divide this area into two more districts to establish the Demon Suppression Division."

Xiang Yuan said in a low voice.

The three districts of Southern Prefecture have existed for many years. This is a fixed arrangement.

Once two more districts are to be divided, it means reducing the jurisdiction of the original three districts.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

For Baicyu City, this was not a good thing.

The land area is reduced.

Resources will also decrease accordingly.

In all aspects of rights, there will be certain limitations.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing also understood why Xiang Yuan had such a complexion.

"It's not strange that the power of the Demon Suppression Division is concentrated at the border with the celestial charts set up. Do you know, towards, which two Demon Suppression Division officers have come to Nanyu Mansion"

This news is not a bad thing for him.

After all, his position as the garrison commander of Nanyou Mansion did not conflict with the jurisdiction of the Demon Suppression Division.

On the contrary.

The stronger the power of the Nanyu Prefecture Demon Suppressing Division, the stronger the power in one's own hands.

In the future, whether it's catching demons or arresting mountain spirits, efficiency will be much higher than before.

Yuan shook his head: "I'm not sure yet, but we should hear something soon."

"Hmm."

Shen Changqing hummed softly in response, then changed the subject.

"Your Majesty's personal expedition, is this now officially starting, or..."

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

“His Majesty has personally led the army away from the capital, and it is estimated that in a while, he will be able to officially enter the territory of Lu'an Prefecture. Now, the Tiancewei who exists in Lu'an Prefecture has sent news that the remaining forces of the Great Zhou have all withdrawn from Lu'an Prefecture, showing signs of holding firm.”

Daliang and Dayue did not pursue the victory, they only stationed a large army at the border of Lu'an Prefecture.

Yuan did not speak, but Dul answered promptly.

In terms of information, he knew far more than Xiang Yuan.

Shen Changqing fell into deep thought.

Even before the reinforcements from Da Liang arrived, the Zhou forces attacking Luoyang had already suffered heavy ambushes and lacked sufficient strength to resist.

Now that I have completely left Lu'an Mansion, it is perfectly normal.

> Dalian Dayue's approach is clearly just to slightly support Luan Prefecture. Whether they can cooperate with Da Qin to attack D Zhou in the future is still a question mark.

That's all.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

These things, he can't control either.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Since the Qin Emperor dared to personally lead the army, he must have been completely confident or had other plans.

There's not much I can do on my own.

"Your Majesty, recently the demon problem in our Great Liang has worsened, and many common people have been affected. I believe we should strengthen the defenses in all regions to prevent demons from causing chaos!"

Inside the Dàliáng Palace, an official spoke out loudly.

Upon hearing this.

The Liang Huang's face was calm.

"As for the issue of demons in my Liang dynasty, there has never been a significant fluctuation. Why is there an aggravation this time Have you sent anyone to investigate and clarify"

Compared to the Qin Dynasty.

The issue of demonic spirits in Daliang, comparatively speaking, was not that severe.

He could also understand that the demon clan was obviously aiming to attack Qin first. After conquering Qin, their next targets would be Daliang and Dayue.

For Qin was the foremost among all.

Only then, after the confrontation with Daliang and Dàyuè, could he take a breather.

Now that the problems with demons and evil spirits are escalating, Liang Huang can't shake off a bad feeling.

As soon as his voice fell.

Someone stepped forward, clasped their fists and said: "Your Majesty, I just received news that the Great Qin Demon Suppression Division has developed a celestial map and activated it in all prefectures of Great Qin. The power of the celestial map covers the entire territory of Great Qin."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

All demons and demonkind under the celestial chart's coverage will be exposed without a place to hide.

Now, within the borders of Great Qin, demons and demonic humans are either slain by the Demon Suppression Division or flee in panic, far from the land of Great Qin.

"I suspect that the worsening of demonic problems in our Great Liang is likely related to changes in Great Qin."

Astrology!

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the civil and military officials in the court turned pale.

Even Liang Huang, with his placid and tranquil face, showed a number of changes.

Here's the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Is that true what you said"

"Everything I said is true!"

"I understand!"

Liang Huang retracted his gaze, although the expression on his face had returned to normal, the tremor in his heart couldn't subside for a long time.

From what they've said so far.

He understands the power of astrology and how truly potent it is.

That can be said.

After the activation of the Great Qin Star Chart, the targets of demons and monsters are very likely to shift to Daliao and Dayue.

After all, under the celestial map's coverage, demons have nowhere to hide.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

If the demonic race wants to enter the Qin Dynasty again, unless they want a direct confrontation, there is no possibility for them to secretly use their schemes.

In comparison.

The defenses of Daliang and Dayue against demons were surprisingly empty.

If one were a member of the demon race, the target would undoubtedly be the Liang and Dayue dynasties.

A long while.

Liang Huang looked down at a middle-aged man in purple.

"Ran Zhenzhou, do you know anything about the star chart"

The Qin Dynasty had a Demon Suppression Division, and the Liang Dynasty also had one.

Now, the person below, is the true ruler of Dali Town Demon Division, Ran Gong.

Upon hearing this.

Rǎn's expression remained unchanged, her voice calm as she replied.

"As expected, the star chart originated from the Hidden Heart Pavilion. We once attempted to send someone undercover into the Hidden Heart Pavilion, but were intercepted by the Qin Dynasty's Demonic Suppression Division. Therefore, this minister is unaware of the star chart's existence."

But besides myself, the matter of the celestial charts is a boon for all humankind.

>

My great Liang and the Qin Dynasty are considered allies, Your Majesty might write a letter to the Emperor of Qin, to see if we can share the celestial charts.

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"In the future, the two sides working together to deal with demons will also have many benefits."

"You make a good point."

Liáng Huáng's face was as calm and unruffled as ancient well water.

Shared star map.

Ran Gong's proposal was not entirely infeasible.

The only reason the star charts are so important is that even if both sides are allies, Qin wouldn't easily hand them over. The Liang Kingdom would have to pay a considerable price for them.

Can be compared with monitoring demons.

No matter the cost, it is insignificant.

Immediately.

Liang Huang looked at Ran Gong and said in a deep voice, "Ran Zhen, the matter of negotiating with the Great Qin about the celestial chart will be entrusted to you."

Now that Lord Gu Xuanji is personally leading the troops, you may enter from Lu'an Prefecture.

"Your servant obeys!"

As for the battle between Qin and Zhou, my Liang kingdom merely assisted from the sidelines. We were not the main force attacking. Pass down the order: troops stationed outside Lu'an Prefecture must not act without orders.

Remember, prioritize preserving your own strength.

"Yes!"

In the room.

The Martial Emperor finished inscribing the runes and then cast a secret spell to activate them.

Suddenly.

Black mist surged, and crimson eyes appeared from within.

"What's the matter"

A hoarse voice arose.

The Martial Emperor replied respectfully, "Your Lordship, the Great Qin Empire has somehow researched a thing called a Star Disk. Now it is activated in every government office of the Great Qin, and the power of the Star Disk covers the entire empire."

We exist under the blanket of celestial power, almost nowhere to escape.

In a short period of time, the Everlife Alliance's strongholds were exposed across various locations and were besieged by the Qin army, resulting in heavy casualties. They were ultimately forced to temporarily withdraw from Qin territory.

"What is an astrolabe"

His voice also sounded rather doubtful.

Upon hearing this.

The Martial Emperor shook his head: "My subordinate is also unaware. All we know is that the celestial disk can monitor our existence. Even powerful demons are nowhere to be hidden. Wang Mubai was recently hunted down by the Great Qin Garrison Commander because his whereabouts were exposed."

Now that he has left the Qin Dynasty, his whereabouts are unknown.

That's all I have to say.

The room fell silent for a few moments.

After a long pause, a voice slowly said: "Although Wang Mubai has not reached the level of Yao Sheng, among the great demons, he is considered top-tier. There are probably few people in the Great Qin who could hunt him down."

"Who was it that did this"

"Shen Changqing!"

"Shen Changqing"

After hearing this name, the voice noticeably fluctuated.

It is obvious.

This news was also beyond his expectations.

However, the sound wave quickly subsided.

"Add Shen Changqing to the list of key observation targets. He must have some big secrets. Being able to hunt down Wang Mubai, if this person continues to grow, he might pose a real threat to our clan in the future."

But for now, don't act rashly. Let's talk after I get out.

After a pause.

The voice continued, "Last time you said Gu Xuanji was preparing to personally lead the troops. Is there any news now"

“The Qin Dynasty is currently focusing on stabilizing its internal situation. It's almost stable now. If I'm not mistaken, Gu Xuanji should be preparing for a personal expedition.”

The Wudi lowered his head and spoke.

Once the Qin state was stabilized internally, Gu Xuanji could focus entirely on dealing with the Zhou Dynasty.

If he is Gu Xuanji, this is the perfect time for a personal expedition.

After the domestic demons and evil spirits were quelled, the people's hearts and morale soared.

Now make your move.

The power it exerts is absolutely incomparable to what it was in the past.

A voice said: "Pay close attention to the movements of Qin. Gu Xuanji is not a person who would fight without a guarantee of victory. He dares to leave Qin and attack Dazhou, there must be some unknown trump card."

Have the Eternal Alliance keep a close eye on Qin and report any news to me in real time.

Remember, without my command, do not act on your own accord. If you ruin my plans, the consequences will be yours to bear!

Finally, the voice issued a harsh warning.

A powerful and terrifying aura permeated through the black mist, settling upon Emperor Wu. It caused his body to tremble uncontrollably.

"Rest assured, my lord. I will definitely carry out your orders and will never ruin your preparations!"

That's great.

"However, there is one more thing my subordinate wishes to request of you, sir. I hope you will grant it."

The martial emperor felt the pressure on his body disappear, and he tentatively opened his mouth.

A voice said, "What is it"

This line of code appears to be trying to output a paragraph break (

) tag. Let me know if you have any other code snippets you'd like translated!

"My cultivation has stagnated at the peak of Master Realm for far too long. Although I can borrow your power and rival high-level demons, my own foundation is simply too weak."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Therefore, my subordinate hopes that the superior will grant permission so that I can make a breakthrough.

If we succeed, my subordinates' strength will increase, and I can better serve you!

The Martial Emperor spoke with respect.

After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.

There was no reply, only the atmosphere around becoming heavier and heavier.

Just when Emperor Wu was sweating behind him.

That voice slowly spoke: "Although you have only been in the Eternal Life Alliance for a few years, you have done your best these years and contributed a lot to our clan's great cause."

You can certainly improve your skills, but to say I can help you break through to the Grandmaster level, that's beyond my capabilities.

However, if you are willing, I can transform you into a demonic body. Then your power will naturally increase.

Cannot break through the Grandmaster!

When he heard these words, Emperor Wu felt a tinge of disappointment in his heart.

As soon as he heard the next sentence, his expression changed drastically.

Transform into a demonic body!

This answer completely surprised him.

Although I have now become a monster, abandoning half of my human identity, I am still closely connected to the human race.

If one were to transform into a demon's body, they would truly cease to be human.

Reject one's own race.

In exchange for the corresponding power.

>

This approach gave Wuhuang some hesitation.

Please note that the original text you provided was an empty paragraph tag. I've translated it to stay consistent with the HTML.

However.

He hesitated for only a moment before his expression hardened.

"My subordinate is willing to transform into a demonic body, please bestow upon me the art, Master!"

Even if it means transforming into a demon's body, as long as I can obtain the power I desire, any price is acceptable.

As he had willingly joined the Eternal Life Alliance earlier and become a demon.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now.

At most, it's just more thorough.

That being said, it's not entirely unacceptable.

A black mist swirled, and the voice that emerged had a touch more approval.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

"Great achievers don't dwell on trivial matters. I'm very pleased that you understand. Since you've made your decision, I'll transform your demonic body for you, but there's a condition: you need to collect one million drops of blood from human hearts first."

"When you have gathered everything, then tell me. At that time, I will naturally transform your demonic body for you."

The heart and soul of a million people!

Upon hearing these words, the Martial Emperor suddenly raised his head.

The voice said: "Transforming a demon's body is not as easy as you imagine. And your strength is not weak. Once transformed, it will inevitably be transformed into a higher-level demon, so the blood of millions of human beings is indispensable."

The more you collect in your heart, the stronger you will be after transformation.

Besides, I will also pass on to you the method of blood pool forging. All your heart's blood must be poured into the blood pool.

A crimson light shot out from the black mist, entering Wu Huang's mind before he could react.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A massive amount of information exploded.

It took Wu Huang a long time to digest all that information.

Then, I looked back at the secret room.

The black mist, at some point, had already dissipated, and the crimson eyes were no longer there.

Reviewing the information in his mind, his eyes turned cold.
