Chapters sixty-five to sixty-eight: A Difficult Choice, The

strous terror, Qing Gang's gossamer wings trembled violently. Countless gales erupted from the void, attempting to obliterate the sword qi.>But it was of no use.All the gale-force winds were torn apar...“Zhou Huang speaks quickly and to the point, so Shen won't beat around the bush either.”

To be sure, the Zhou Emperor now controls the resentment of billions of souls, and to a certain extent can achieve immortality.

I can kill you once, and there's no way I can kill you millions of times for now.

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

Therefore, instead of continuing this endless feud, why not temporarily cease hostilities and make peace "Let people be unharmed by me, and I shall be unharmed by them." As long as the Zhou emperor's domain doesn't encroach upon Qin, I see no need to make things difficult for him.

Shen Changqing smiled faintly.

After understanding the strength of the Shepherd God and his advantages, he temporarily had no preparation to fight him to the death.

It's very simple.

What he said is right.

If he were to kill himself, he would do it a million times. But if I were to kill him, it would only take once.

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

With one's own foundation.

Although the consumption of using Heaven-Earth Cleaving Slash is not as great as before, it can't cleave out too many blades.

If we really have to fight to the death.

Then the person who died, must have been responsible for their own death.

But.

This result is based on the assumption of a no-retreat, all-out fight.

If Shen Changqing wanted to leave, he was confident that even with the presence of Mu Shen Tong, they wouldn't be able to stop him.

Moreover.

One's own talents can be a threat to anyone.

Therefore, when he proposed the idea, he didn't express whether he expected agreement or rejection.

As expected.

When Shen Changqing finished speaking, Mù Shéntōng did not immediately refuse, nor did he agree right away. His eyes flickered a few times.

“How can I be certain that you aren't delaying, waiting until you have the upper hand before turning against me”

Rather than doing so, I might as well directly attack the Qin Dynasty and plunder its living beings and blood essence for my own use.”

“The Zhou Emperor wouldn’t do such a thing.”

This is a translation of the text you provided. Please note that HTML tags are not translated, only the content within them.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

How do you know

"It's quite simple, you've only been born for a year now. To have expanded your territory to encompass the entirety of Da Zhou is already impressive. Just look at the barren lands across Da Zhou – it shows that your current power is insufficient."

Although the Qin Dynasty bordered the Zhou Dynasty, there was also a significant buffer zone.

To put it another way, if my Qin Dynasty were to simply abandon Lu'an Prefecture and escort the populace to safety, how long would it take your domain to consume the entire Lu'an Prefecture and spread into other prefectures

To attack my Great Qin, you will gain nothing.

On the contrary, in the future I have enough confidence that you and I will inevitably be at each other's throats.

It is unwise to provoke an enemy, especially a powerful one, without sufficient benefit.

Shen Changqing's expression was calm.

He didn't take the other party's threats to heart at all.

Although the God of Herds' power is now strong, it hasn't reached a point where it threatens itself.

If it weren't for its constant ability to resurrect, I would have killed it myself. It wouldn't have been easy, but it wouldn't have been too difficult either.

But it's a shame.

The advantage of Mùshén Tōng compared to other natural disasters is really significant.

Other disasters are at most tens of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of resentments combined.

...on the other party.

It harbors the resentment of billions upon billions of people from the Zhou Dynasty.

To be honest.

Even if one were to break through to the Divine Realm, it would be no easy feat to completely obliterate their opponent.

Unless.

The other party, like Mo Zi Jin, abandoned their own advantages.

That way, things will be easier.

Even if it does so, its strength could skyrocket.

However.

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

Chen Changqing is confident.

Give him some time, and he will surely grow to a terrifying state.

By that time.

Coming back to deal with the Divine Shepherd was simply a breeze.

"It's a pity, it's a pity that you are not from my great Zhou. Otherwise, my great Zhou might not have come to this day."

Upon the imperial throne, this Zhou Emperor let out a sigh.

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

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing shook his head: "If I were a person from the Great Zhou, then there would only be two possibilities for the Great Zhou now. The first is that it would be destroyed like it is now, and the second is that the Great Zhou would henceforth be surnamed Shen. There is no third possibility."

And then he stopped speaking.

The Shepherd was just about to open his mouth to retort.

Before he could speak, Shen Changqing continued, "Do you know the biggest difference between you and Qin Huang"

"Where am I lacking compared to Gu Xuanji"

“The First Emperor truly valued the entire Qin Dynasty. That's why he could pave the way for Qin with his own life before his death. But you only value yourself, so no matter how prosperous and powerful the Zhou Dynasty becomes…”

Ultimately, you will fall due to your longing for immortality.

Shen Changqing calmly said.

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

Looking at the other person's gloomy face, he showed no sign of stopping.

“You should be grateful that I am not from the Zhou Dynasty, or else, when you offered yourself as a sacrifice to the Zhou, I might have killed you first.”

No one can control my destiny, not even you.

This is a sentence.

It's already slapping the face of the divine power of the shepherd.

Their face was dark and menacing, as if ready to explode at any moment.

But.

Shen Changqing remained unperturbed.

He concluded.

This Zhou Huang was definitely someone who wouldn't dare to make a move, because the other party didn't have the confidence to counter him, or rather, they couldn't counter the future him.

For a long while.

Only then did the god of shepherds' face regain its color.

"It seems you are truly confident. But you are right, if you were indeed from the Great Zhou, I might not have reached that point."

Cooperation is possible, but how can I be sure you will not break your promise in the future

“There are some things, Your Majesty Zhou, that you may not be aware of yet.”

Shen Changqing shook his head slightly.

Upon hearing this.

The other party’s expression changed: “If you have something to say, just say it.”

“In fact, the demon clan appeared as early as ancient times, but they were driven back by the powerful beings of that era.”

As a price, the strong individuals of ancient times were all wiped out.

But the demon clan was not truly eradicated. They exist outside heaven, always eyeing this world. However, because of the seal, they cannot enter at will.

>

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

However—

The strength of the ban lies in the power of heaven and earth's Qi. The death of millions of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty has severely damaged the human race's Qi, indirectly causing significant damage to the overall Qi of heaven and earth.

>

The power of the seal is now flawed, and in perhaps another twenty years, powerful demons will truly descend upon the world.

At that time, if the human race did not have enough power to resist, this world would be completely destroyed.

Shen Changqing's eyes were deep and unruffled.

"In the eyes of the demonic clan, all living beings in this world, whether they be humans or natural disasters, are of the same nature."

When they arrive, I will be able to fight as best I can. If I cannot fight them, then there is only one path: death.

Therefore, I do not want to weaken the power of heaven and earth unless it is absolutely necessary. The power of natural disasters is also part of the power of heaven and earth. If Emperor Zhou can grow up, he will be of great benefit to heaven and earth in the future.

Thus, Your Majesty should understand that there was no need for me to attack you.

And then he spoke.

The shepherd didn't speak, but silently digested the information he had just heard.

To be honest.

Shen Changqing had no idea about the secret news mentioned by Shen Changqing.

Although the Zhou Dynasty existed for a long time, compared to ancient times, it is still very distant.

Ancient times.

Many things have been lost to the dust of history.

Even as the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, he couldn't know too much.

Otherwise.

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

He wouldn't fall for the Ghost Saint's trap and was ultimately killed by the backlash of resentment.

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

After a moment.

The God of Shepherds' face was impassive: "Such news, our Great Zhou has not received the slightest bit. How did you obtain it Are you deceiving me"

Although all the ancient powerhouses have perished, some of their souls remain. If Zhou Huang manages to leave his domain someday, he could go to Qingming and take a look. But by then, that predecessor might not be there anymore.

Shen Changqing shook his head.

Upon hearing this.

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

The god of shepherds was silent.

The message he received was unexpected.

>

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense.

The fact that even demons and the guardians cannot enter this ancient site speaks volumes.

After that.

The demonic presence descended suddenly, without any prior warning.

Thinking further, the Ghost Saint had originally deceived himself into believing that he was sacrificing all the souls of the Zhou Dynasty.

In the past.

This content is actually just a simple HTML tag. When translated into English, it remains the same:"

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

Even the Divine Shepherd couldn't understand what Ghost Saint was trying to achieve.

But now.

He vaguely understood.

This is a paragraph.

“Alright, as long as you do not invade the Great Zhou, then this emperor will absolutely not attack the Qin.”

Finally.

The Shepherd agreed.

At this point, he really didn't have any other options.

Please note that I only translated the content within the tags.

If you agree.

To a certain extent, it can reduce an enemy.

If you disagree, you won't be able to keep them either.

Instead.

It's better to simply agree and be straightforward.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing's face showed a hint of a smile: "Emperor Zhou will not regret today's decision, and besides, I'll tell you another secret."

>

The realm you possess is actually a prototype of the Kingdom of God. Once the true Kingdom of God is opened, it will be equivalent to the strength of a god king level expert.

What is a divine king It's an existence stronger than demon saints and even higher-tier demon gods.

But opening the Divine Kingdom has one requirement: it needs enough faith power.

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

The Zhou Emperor possesses the resentment of millions of beings from the former Great Zhou dynasty. If you could transform that resentment into spiritual energy and release it, the people of the Great Zhou would be reborn. They would grant you sufficient faith power.

By that time, you will surely make rapid progress.

That brings us to the end.

>

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

However.

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

Even if it's fast.

The God of Shepherds can't possibly be faster than me.

On the contrary.

Once the other party does so, one's greatest advantage will be discarded.

That way.

If Mu Shen Tong really wanted to attack the Qin Dynasty, I would solve him without too much trouble.

"Oh!"

Outside the territory of the Great Zhou, Shen Changqing raised his head to look at the sky, and finally retracted his gaze, sighing inwardly.

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

The words of Taishan Fu Jun.

There has always been a nail buried in his heart.

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

The power of the demon clan.

In comparison to the frailty of humankind today.

The real fighting has begun.

The human race's chances of winning are slim.

The reason I told Mushin so much was to make him give up his own advantage, making it easier to deal with him in the future. I also wanted him to improve his strength and bolster the foundation of heaven and earth.

Of course.

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

If the demonic clan truly attacked, it would be hard to say whether that individual was friend or foe.

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

However.

This won't stop Shen Changqing from taking a gamble.

Even if you lose the bet.

In just a dozen or so years, how much will the other party have grown

At that time.

Just strike and kill.

"I hope you have some sense."

Shen Changqing's eyes turned cold.

If he had a choice, he would much rather directly eliminate the Divine Shepherd and avoid any potential threats, instead of taking this gamble.

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

But there's no way.

The other party's strength is really impressive now.

In the realm, if we forcefully clash and battle fiercely, our chances of falling are too high.

That's the advantage of being able to be resurrected.

It is unparalleled by anyone else.

Shake your head.

Shen Changqing stepped into the void and returned directly to Yinsheng Pass.

“Shen Zhenhou is back, I wonder how things went”

On the city wall, Wei Yang had always stayed there. Now seeing the other party return, the anxiety in his heart finally eased.

Although he had great confidence in Shen Changqing.

But.

The natural disasters of the Great Zhou Dynasty were obviously different from other natural disasters.

...the situation with the other party’s deep incursion into Dazhou was something Weiyáng wasn't entirely sure about.

Now.

If Shen Changqing came out, it means the other party didn't fall for it.

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

Anyway, this is a good thing.

The content within " >" is empty. If you had text inside the tags, I would translate it for you.

The Great Zhou Heavenly Disaster's power is formidable, but that calamity won't attack Da Qin for the time being. However, defenses at Meteor Saint Pass should not be relaxed.

>

Shen Changqing shook his head slightly.

His gaze fell on Zhou Yu Guan, his face a touch solemn.

"Was Shen Zhen not confident in dealing with that celestial disaster"

Even though he had some expectations in his heart, Wei Yang was still a little shocked.

The person before him was the number one man in the Great Qin.

If even this is beyond our reach, then the great calamities of Zhou Dynasty are truly insurmountable.

Shen Changqing's face was calm: "It's not that I can't deal with it, but that the disaster can be resurrected. It carries the resentment of millions of people from the Zhou Dynasty. To kill it, one has to kill it millions of times."

I could certainly kill him ten times, a hundred times. But a billion times That would be beyond my ability.

"Hiss!"

>

Wei Yang's face changed abruptly.

It would take killing billions of times to completely obliterate that celestial disaster. Just hearing this, he could feel how incredibly difficult it truly was.

And—

“I'm afraid even General Wei wouldn't have guessed the true identity of the Zhou Heavenly Calamity!”

A smile curved Shen Changqing's lips.

Seeing the other person like this, Wei Yang's expression moved: "Shen Zhenhou, if you have something to say, just say it."

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

He instinctively felt something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He is the god of shepherds.

“Divine Shepherd's Call!”

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

Wei Yang's face completely changed.

The great emperor of the Zhou Dynasty—Múshén Tóng!

The identity of the Great Zhou Tianzai turned out to be Mu Shen Tong.

This is the message.

It was far beyond his expectations.

"Could Shen Zhen be serious Didn't Mu Shen Tong fall to the resentment of the Great Zhou human race Why would he become a natural disaster"

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

"Uncertain, but he is undoubtedly the divine shepherd."

Shen Changqing shook his head.

He has some understanding of how to become a natural disaster.

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

But.

Why all resentment would gather on one person, I don't know.

Mu Shen Tong's rebirth as the Heavenly Calamity of the Great Zhou dynasty is an undeniable fact.

Thank you!

This is Weilan's first feeling.

He narrowed his eyes.

"Mùshén Tōng is a ruthless and ambitious person. He craves immortality and will sacrifice everyone in the Zhou Dynasty to achieve it. Now, he has returned as a natural disaster, which is bad news for everyone."

The manifestation of the god of herding as a natural disaster, is only more terrifying than the living god of herding.

As the culprit behind the demise of the Zhou dynasty.

Even Wei Yang was moved by that person's ruthless methods.

That can be said.

This is no longer simply a matter of ruthlessness.

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

To say it's insane is an understatement.

Shen Changqing said, “I have reached a temporary agreement with Mushen Tong. If nothing unexpected happens, he will not attack the Qin Dynasty for now. But if he really attacks the Qin Dynasty, don't resist head-on, prioritize retreating first to ensure your own safety.”

If necessary, all the people can be relocated, and Lu'an Prefecture can be completely abandoned.

Remember, absolutely do not let him obtain spirit blood, otherwise it will only fuel his power.

"I understand."

Wei Yang nodded.

He also knows what it takes for a natural disaster to grow in strength.

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

The reason why natural disasters are considered a type of demon is because they primarily consume living beings.

The more flesh it devours, the stronger it becomes.

At this time.

Shen Changqing's palm split open, a drop of terrifying golden blood emanating from it, separating itself from the rest.

As soon as that drop of blood appeared, its breath alone caused the space to warp and shatter.

The entire Mount Saint of Meteorite, a place of great size, was enveloped by an awe-inspiring pressure.

"This is—"

Wei Yang involuntarily took a step back, his face pale as he stared at the drop of golden blood.

Upon that drop of blood, he felt a breath of destruction.

That kind of feeling.

Just like when blood falls, it can thoroughly suppress itself.

Powerful!

Unparalleled power!

This golden blood, like a terrifyingly powerful being.

Just as Wei Yang was astonished.

That drop of golden blood twisted, and before him, it transformed into an identical replica of Shen Changqing.

“This is the incarnation of a drop of my essence. Even if a demon saint attacks, he can withstand it. Next, I will have him guard at Yinsheng Pass, ensuring everything goes smoothly.”

Shen Changqing spoke calmly.

The true form of Ten Thousand Calamities has reached the ninth level, its realm breaking through to the late stage of the Immortal Golden Body Realm. It is only one step away from being completely perfected.

Here is the English translation of the text:

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

His foundation was already incredibly profound.

Now.

The power of a single drop of blood from the physical body is already equivalent to that of a strong warrior who has just entered the realm of Immortal Golden Body.

The ordinary Immortal Golden Body Realm is the same as that of a Demon Saint.

Like Shen Changqing, who is still at the level of Immortal Golden Body, can crush half-step demon gods because his foundation is deep and Wanjie True Body is considered the strongest martial art among the current realms.

Here is the translation of your text:

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

To advance further, it's not just about reaching the Immortal Golden Body realm.

If we say.

Please note that the content within "" was empty. I have simply returned the html tag as requested.

Each level of the Immortal Golden Body Realm is divided into three, six, and nine levels based on its foundation.

Then he must be the best of the best.

On the other side.

Weiyang stared at the doppelganger that was exactly like Shen Changqing, his shock showing no signs of abating.

A single drop of blood could transform into a demon comparable to a Saint of Demons, it's simply too astonishing and unbelievable.

You know.

A hundred years ago, a demon saint almost brought the Qin dynasty to its knees.

Now.

This General of the Great Qin, a single drop of his blood equivalent to a Demon Saint, how powerful he truly is, can be imagined.

The same.

Even such a powerful being couldn't overcome the great Zhou celestial disaster.

Then how terrible the natural disasters of the Zhou Dynasty were, one can still imagine.

In an instant.

Wei Yang's heart tightened, and his face became serious: "With Shen Zhen guarding the place with a refined blood avatar, the Yin Saint Pass will be as stable as Mount Tai. If there are any changes in the Zhoutian disaster, we will definitely protect the people of Luo'an Prefecture."

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

"That's great then."

Shen Changqing nodded.

He split off a drop of essence blood, which transformed into a being. While it did cost him some power, it wasn't too severe a drain.

Here is the translation of your text, with HTML tags intact:

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

That's all.

The amount of vital essence in the physical body is limited.

If it divides too much, it will inevitably have a serious impact on itself.

Therefore.

Shen Changqing didn't differentiate too many clones of his essence blood, leaving only one behind, which was almost enough.

Look at the world.

How many powerful beings who have achieved the level of immortality, the Golden Body realm, there are, is still a question that's difficult to answer.

>

And of these people, two were already from the Qin state.

The remaining forces.

It's probably nothing.

In this way.

With this drop of essence blood, the Meteor Saint Pass basically poses no problem.

Meanwhile.

The capital of the Daliang Kingdom.

The original serene sky suddenly had a terrifying aura that seemed to cover the capital like dark clouds. This caused everyone in the city to instinctively look up, their faces filled with terror.

At that moment.

But anyone under the veil of his presence finds their heart and mind involuntarily tightening.

That feeling awaits.

Just like the sky is about to collapse.

“He's going to succeed!”

In the Grand General's Mansion, Bei Mingwang's face was extremely grave.

He could clearly feel the pressure brought by that aura, and its main source was there.

That is the direction of the Demon Suppression Division.

In the Demon Suppression Division, the only person capable of unleashing such a terrifying aura was one and only—the head of the Demon Suppression Division, Ran An.

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

More than a year ago, Ran An announced that she was going into seclusion and would not be coming out.

Though the news of the opponent's impending breakthrough hasn't spread, the high-ranking officials in court are well aware of it.

This reminds me of that.

Let's take the terrifying power that has emerged today as another example.

Bei Ming Wang is basically certain that Ran An should have succeeded in breaking through.

Upon thinking about this.

His mind was in turmoil.

Such powerful individuals, upon further breakthroughs, would be comparable to the existence of a demonic saint.

>

Look around, at the human race.

Such powerful individuals are few and far between.

“The time for the rise of Daliang may have truly arrived!”

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

Inside the Demon Suppression Division.

A terrifying aura swept across the entire capital.

After a long time.

That chilling aura finally subsided, gradually calming until it vanished completely.

The tightly closed door of the secret room suddenly opened.

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

Ràn walked out from inside, clad in a purple robe. Although there was no change in his expression, an awe-inspiring aura emanated from him.

Such imposing might.

It's not the deliberate dispersion of breath, but rather a natural formation from the inside out.

Several guards waiting outside saw this and their faces changed drastically.

Then.

He couldn't wait to ask.

"Ran Zhenzhou has successfully broken through!"

"Hmm."

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

Ran Anping nodded quietly.

That's all I have to say.

Here is the translation:

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

Everyone was excited.

They know.

Ran An, who is already a high-ranking garrison commander, will reach an unprecedented realm if he succeeds in his breakthrough.

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

Since the establishment of the garrison commander's office, more than three hundred years have passed.

His Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief.

That is the pinnacle that all Zhen Shou Shi have reached.

Even the most talented individuals have never broken this limit.

The rank of Supreme Guardian, one level higher than the current highest rank, is akin to the mythical limits humans used to believe were possible for martial artists. It exists only in legends and has never actually been attained.

But now things are different.

Ran An broke the limit.

>

This means the other party will be the first garrison commander.

This is the first one.

Not only will it be the first among all the prefects in Liang, but also the first among all the prefects throughout the world.

Immediately.

The garrison commander then excitedly exclaimed, “If Ran holds the town guard position and breaks his limits, he will be considered the first-class town guard commander! Our Liang’s Demon Suppression Division will officially surpass all other demon suppression divisions in the countries. In this way, our reputation will surely soar!”

Amongst the various demon-suppressing agencies of different countries, the Great Liang Demon Suppression Agency has always maintained a middling standard.

The most renowned is undoubtedly the Qin Dynasty Demon Suppression Division.

Ever since.

The Great Liang Demon Suppression Division, they were all being suppressed by the Qin Dynasty Demon Suppression Division.

This is a simple response to demonstrate translation capabilities.

But things are different now.

Ran An broke through the limits. To them, the Great Qin Demon Suppression Division was already invincible.

The other party has left the customs.

This clearly indicated that the reputation of Daliang Town Demon Suppression Office would soon soar to new heights.

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

Ran An also had a smile on his face, but he still modestly added: "Although I have successfully broken through, to say that I am the first Town Guard Commander is still an exaggeration."

The Eastern Edict of the Great Qin Demon Suppression Division is also quite powerful.

Later, there was also Qin General Shen Changqing stationed in the town. This person's strength was also not to be underestimated. "

"Ran Zhen Shou was humble."

Upon hearing this, the man couldn't help but shake his head.

“Dongfang Zhao was quite well-known at first, but unfortunately, his talent wasn't great enough. If Ran Zhen Shou hadn't broken through, he could have posed a bit of a threat, but now that Ran Zhen Shou has surpassed his limits, the other is nothing compared to him.”

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

As for Shen Changqing, this person's talent is indeed strong, but unfortunately his foundation is still shallow.

In the battle against Saint Yan, he was able to kill the Demon Saint only because Gu Xuanji had severely wounded the Demon Saint beforehand. Otherwise, how could Shen Changqing have had the chance to kill the Demon Saint"

Ran An smiled.

Looking at everyone, he simply said a sentence.

"The news of my successful breakthrough should not be spread for now. I will see Your Majesty first and then speak."

Inside the palace.

Please provide the text content you would like me to translate. I can help with that!

In the Imperial Garden.

Liang Huang and Ran An sat face-to-face, with a table of fragrant spiritual tea between them. There were no eunuchs or palace maids attending to them left and right.

"Did Ran successfully defend the stronghold"

>

Liang Huang's voice was calm and composed. Though his words were phrased as a question, they were brimming with affirmation.

Upon hearing this.

Ran An didn't hide it, she nodded frankly.

"Fortuitously successful, if not the big Monday battle gave me some gains, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so fast to break through."

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

Before he became the town guard, his talent in martial arts was unparalleled.

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

However.

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

Decades have passed.

In the grand hall, many still remember that exceptionally gifted young prodigy from days gone by.

After becoming the garrison commander.

Then Ran An no longer flaunted his prowess. Instead, he concealed himself, quietly assuming the role of the leader of the Demon Suppression Division and suppressing the rebellious demons.

There is no denying that.

The opponent's strength is indeed very strong.

But when it comes to reputation, compared to the head of the Da Qin Town Demon Division, it is far inferior.

Now.

Thinking back on the past.

Ran An had a feeling of elation and pride.

Becoming the commander, he had been in seclusion for decades. Today, after a breakthrough, it wouldn't be long before he shook the world.

This is Ran'an's name.

... will once again enter everyone's ears.

Liang Huang's face was filled with satisfaction: "Ran, your successful defense of the city is excellent news for our Great Liang. However, I wonder if you have a grasp on how to deal with Dong Fang Zhao and Shen Changqing now"

Speaking of these two people.

>

His face grew slightly grim.

“There is word from scouts that the Qin general in command of the garrison seems to have made significant progress recently, but there are no further details about how.”

As for the Eastern Imperial Decree, I haven't been able to find out much about it yet.

This line of code will print out the text "I'm a paragraph." Please note that I am an AI assistant and cannot execute code.

In terms of intelligence security, the Qin Dynasty did a very good job.

So.

Even if the main beam had spies planted, there's no way they could infiltrate such high levels.

Having not reached the upper echelons, many secret messages were beyond my grasp.

In this way.

As for Shen Changqing and Dongfang Zhao's grasp of intelligence, it was only slightly deeper than the surface level.

On hearing this.

Ran An's expression did not appear to be overly grave.

“Shen Changqing’s natural talent is very strong, but compared to those powerful individuals who have been cultivating for decades, at the same level of cultivation, his foundation will inevitably appear shallow.”

If I hadn't broken through, this person would have been a formidable opponent. But now that I've surpassed my limits, he's hardly worth considering.

As for the imperial edict from the East—

He shook his head slightly.

He was naturally gifted and talented to become the head of the Great Qin Demon Suppression Division, but the commander-in-chief also had a fatal flaw: his lifespan.

The Eastern Decree's command of the Demon Suppression Division has lasted for a century. Even with methods to prolong his lifespan, he is likely nearing his limit by now.

If he were twenty or thirty years younger, Dong Fangzhi might have a chance of breaking through and succeeding.

>

But now, the same is not a concern.

As the head of the same Demon Suppression Office, Ran'an understands Dongfang Zhao very well.

Because he understood deeply, he realized that the other party posed no significant threat to him at present.

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

Your Excellency, the Grand Marshal!

In the presence of the town governor, that was all there was to it.

The Demon Suppression Division once had a strong individual determine that any realm above Venerable Garrison Commander was bound to be even more powerful, and once they reached this realm, they would possess the strength rivaling a Demonic Saint.

For this reason, the mighty one named this realm "Holy."

"As for me, I am now the first Saint-Rank Garrison Commander of this era. The difference between a Demon Saint and a Great Demon is vast, so the difference between a Saint-Rank and a Venerable Rank is equally immense."

Ran An smiled with confidence.

It's not that he has become inflated now.

Instead, it's due to a strengthening of their own abilities. The words they speak are simply based on facts and the situation at hand.

Then Shen Changqing is fine, too.

>

It is a decree from the East.

Although both were powerful, in Ran An's view, neither had broken through that layer of limitation.

As long as they can't break the boundaries.

This is the end of the paragraph.

That way.

There's no possibility of it contending with itself.

Liang Huang nodded: "It seems that Ran Zhen is very confident, which is good. Now that the Zhou Dynasty has been destroyed, Da Qin is the biggest threat to my Great Liang."

Since Gu Xuanji's passing, the Qin state has seen a decline in its strength.

If we don't seize the opportunity now, when Da Qin recovers its strength, our Great Liang will be left passive.

There are no true alliances between nations.

There was no fighting between them before because the threat of demons loomed over them.

However.

The Great Qin Celestial Chart is erected, and there are almost no more demons wreaking havoc within its borders.

In this way, the other party is given a chance to recuperate.

The Liang Emperor will never forget.

In its heyday, just how terrifying was the Qin Dynasty

Nothing else needs to be said.

The fact that Qin, having only been founded for over 300 years, could surpass powers like Daliang and Zhou, which had existed for over a thousand years, is already a clear indication.

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

That can be said.

During its heyday, the Qin Dynasty practically swept across all corners of the world.

Whether it was the Great Zhou or the Great Liang and Great Yue, none of them had the strength to resist.

>

Even if they are barbarians.

They've all been beaten and are now hiding in fear, too scared to come out.

That era.

The Qin Dynasty's most glorious era was when the empire truly flourished.

The reason the other side fell was because the demonic plague began.

Now.

With the demon problem solved, Liang Huang was worried that Qin would recover its former glory. If it reached that point, Da Liang's situation would be very dangerous.

There was also a large Zhou Dynasty as a buffer.

Now the Zhou Dynasty has fallen.

Only Daliang and Dayue are left.

If you truly face the Qin Empire as described in rumors, which sweeps across the land and conquers all, even if the two countries join forces, their chances of victory would be low.

Therefore.

The Liang emperor was not willing to give the Qin Dynasty another chance.

The situation is changing every moment.

The emergence of the stellar map, and the fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty, doomed the Liang and Qin Dynasties from continuing their alliance.

"The problems of the Qin Dynasty are indeed great. If Your Majesty decides to take action against the Qin, then this minister has no objection."

Ran An bowed deeply.

With his increased strength, he now just needs an opportunity to show what he can do.

... openly suppress Shen Changqing and Dongfang Zhao.

He will surely become famous.

There is nothing.

Being able to suppress two of the world's most powerful people is even more influential.

With Ran guarding this place, I feel at ease.

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

The Liang Emperor nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he changed the subject again.

"But to attack the Qin, it can't just be my Great Liang alone. I still need to send someone to communicate with the Great Yue side."

Before this, I did not wish for any more Heavenly Watch scouts within the capital city.

"That shouldn't be a problem for the Demonic Suppression Division to handle, I think."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will have the Demon Suppression Division find all of Heavenly Watch's spies and eliminate them one by one."

Ran An's expression turned cold.

The Qin Celestial Guard was completely pervasive, with spies infiltrating everywhere, including the capital of the Zhou Kingdom and the Demon Suppression Department.

In the past.

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

He was too lazy to care about that much.

>

Now that Liang Huang had spoken, it would be impossible for him to ignore it any longer.

Now is the time to strike, and we can eradicate it completely.

This also made the Qin Dynasty realize that their intelligence capabilities, which they were proud of, were nothing compared to the Liang Town Demon Division.

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

But——

"Your Majesty, I must remind you that we cannot fully trust those from Dai Viet either."

At last, Ran An said something.

The capital of i Vit.

Above the imperial court, a single figure clad in a purple imperial robe sat calmly. His majestic form radiated an awe-inspiring presence as he remained motionless on his throne.

This person.

That was the emperor of Dai Viet.

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

After the emissary from Daliang withdrew from court.

The Emperor looked at the ministers, his face calm: "What are your opinions on what the Liang emissary just said"

As soon as the words left his mouth.

A scholar stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, although the Qin Dynasty was founded recently, it has a strong foundation. The former Emperor Qin Gu Xuanji had lofty ambitions. Although the current Emperor Qin hasn't shown anything yet, we must be cautious."

And most of the Qin court officials had a heart for conquest and aggression. If they were around the emperor, that Qin Emperor might really have some thoughts.

My great country, i Vit, has been founded for a thousand years. It is no longer as prosperous as it once was.

A century ago, the First World War left my great country of Vietnam still without its full strength. This is a problem.

Speaking of things a hundred years ago.

Please note that the original text you provided was already in English. ">" is simply HTML code indicating a paragraph break. I've left it as-is since it doesn't need translation.

Many people's faces darkened.

For the Dai Viet, it was a disgrace.

A hundred years ago.

The Yaosheng did not immediately attack Day Qin, but first attacked Dayue. Many demonic creatures rose up and attacked.

That battle.

The great Viet suffered heavy losses.

Its national power had been halved, not to mention the previous emperor who had fallen when facing a demon saint.

However.

Although the reigning emperor perished, the demon saint was also repelled.

Shortly after that.

The Demon Saint no longer attacked Dai Viet and instead went to Dai Qin.

From that time on, the name Qin Huang Gu Xuanji shook the world.

There's no way.

When the Demon Saint attacked i Vit, they defeated them badly.

When attacking the great Qin, he almost got killed on the spot by Gu Xuanji, who had just inherited the throne.

>

Such a sharp contrast.

Of course, Gu Xuanji became famous.

Therefore.

That battle was an honor for the Qin Dynasty, but a shame for the Dai Viet. It was a hundred years of shame that could not be washed away.

"A hundred years ago is in the past, there's no need to bring it up again. The Ghost Saint fell in Lu'an Prefecture, and today, there is no second Demon Saint under heaven."

> Emperor Yue's face was pale and his voice held no discernible emotion.

Immediately.

Another person stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I believe that the Da Liang's proposal also has certain benefits for our Great Yue. The Qin Dynasty is showing signs of revival. If we truly allow it to recuperate..."

By then, I would be unable to resist.

“As Lord Liu said, Your Majesty, we must secure advantageous positions before the Qin Dynasty fully recovers.”

Otherwise, one can only passively take beatings.

"Your Majesty—"

Below, the courtiers all spoke in a cacophony.

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

But everyone's meaning is about the same.

That is to say, agree with Dalian's decision and join forces to attack the Great Qin.

For over three hundred years, the Qin Dynasty had a formidable deterrent effect on all other nations.

> As soon as the opponent shows any signs of recovery, they will be feared by all nations.

In the past.

Demons and evil spirits wreaked havoc. In the middle of this chaos, there was a brief period of peace under the Zhou dynasty. The threat from Qin was not yet so apparent.

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

But now.

Demon problems have eased considerably, and the Zhou Dynasty has also been destroyed.

That's the way to do it.

Even if half of its power had vanished, the power to check Qin was still substantial.

As long as you give the other party some time, it's not impossible to recover their former strength.

When everyone had finished speaking.

Wang Xiao said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Daliang's purpose is very simple. They fear Daqin, so they want to pull us, Dajue, to suppress them. However, the Liang emperor has always been cautious and won't make a move unless he sees a rabbit."

He now suddenly dares to formally strike against the Qin Dynasty, he must surely have some reliance.

>

Recently, news came that a terrifying aura had swept over the capital of Daliang, lasting for a long time before subsiding.

"I suspect that this aura is perhaps related to the preparations Liang is making to attack Qin."

Upon hearing this.

The expressions of the civil and military officials all changed in different ways.

Yue Huang looked down at the people below and calmly said, "General Wang means that a strong person has emerged in Daliang"

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

"It's very possible."

Wang Xiao nodded, his expression somewhat solemn.

“When the strong are paramount today, any nation's power is measured by its peak strength. Keep in mind, there are now Dongfang Xiang and Shen Changqing in Qin Dynasty.”

Even so, the reason for Da Liang's confidence is readily apparent.

He was also very clear about the situation with Daliang.

That's all I have to say on that.

Wang Xiao paused for a moment, then spoke: "However, the threat from Great Qin is undeniable, but Daliang also needs to be defended. I believe that this time, my great Yue can agree to unite with Daliang, but it cannot truly give its all."

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

We still need to keep some strength in reserve, just in case we need to stop the Great Beam from making a secret move.

After all, the Zhou Dynasty has been destroyed. Excluding the barbarian tribes, today's world is divided into three parts.

If the Qin Dynasty falls, then my Great Yue and Great Liang will be left standing.

The Qin Dynasty wasn't destroyed.

Since Daye and Daliang are weaker than Daqin, there's a possibility they could become allies.

But once Qin was destroyed, there would only be Dayue and Daliaang left in the world. The two sides would then be unable to become allies again.

By that time.

Either Dai Viet conquers Daliang, or Daliang conquers Dai Viet.

The world under one rule.

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

Wang Xiao didn't believe that Daliang wouldn't have this idea.

For thousands of years.

Throughout history, the world has always been divided, and there has never been a truly unified empire.

If one can achieve this, they will surely become a legendary figure, their name echoing through the ages.

Such an honor.

Many people can't resist it.

King Yue remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly. "General Wang is right, we must treat the Qin state with caution, and we cannot ignore the Liang state either. However, if our Great Yue agrees to join forces with the Liang state, we also need to show some stance."

Then.

He looked back at Wang Xiao: “This time, the attack on Qin will be led by you.”

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

"Yes!"

Wang Xiao accepted the order.

After further discussion on the matter of attacking, the officials withdrew.

In the Imperial Garden.

Yuehuang and Wangxiao appeared there.

"What you said in court earlier was not bad. This time, attacking the Qin Dynasty is not about conquering them, but about preserving our own strength. I hope you understand this."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I know what to do."

"Hmm—"

The Emperor Yue nodded slightly, then fell into thought again.

“If you really conquer the Qin Dynasty, then look for opportunities to bury all the people of Daliang within the borders of the Qin. However, if it is not feasible, just hold back your troops and do not expose your intentions.”

"I hope you will not intervene. But if you do, it must be for a significant purpose.”

"Yes!"

Wang Xiao's face turned solemn.

> Yue Huang's thoughts were more thorough than he had anticipated.

According to its original plan.

During the campaign against Qin, Dai Viet only played a supporting role and let Dali act as the main force.

You can see what the other person means.

Here is the translation of your content:

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

It's not just about making Daliang the main force. When necessary, our ally, Da Yue, must become a sharp dagger and pierce straight into Daliang's heart.

That's all.

Wang Xiao is actually quite in agreement.

Great achievers are not bound by petty details.

Even if doing so would really get people's criticism, it doesn't matter.

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

The victor is king, the vanquished is defeated.

Victory and defeat have always been the only things that matter.

If the Great Yue truly unified the world, then who wouldn't be pleased, and who would dare to be displeased

>

Having temporarily resolved the problems of Dazhou, and after leaving behind his blood essence avatar at Yinsheng Pass, Shen Changqing returned to the capital.

First.

This is the translation of your text:

He entered the palace and met Gu Xing.

After mentioning the issue of natural disasters in the great Zhou Dynasty, he disregarded Emperor Qin's astonishment and then met with Dongfang Zhao, also informing him about the matter of the exiled fairy valley.

Last time I left the ancient site of Zhexian Valley.

Shen Changqing didn't forget, there was still a spiritual vein existing there.

Although the Spirit Vein Heart is gone, the spiritual energy within the Spirit Vein will gradually drain away and purify.

But.

This fleeting progress can only be measured in years.

Moreover.

Once a spirit stone is formed, the flow of spiritual energy becomes even slower.

>

It is completely possible to send someone to dig it up now.

So many spirit stones.

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

If all of it could be extracted, it would certainly be of great use.

But.

Shen Changqing also had no thoughts of going back to Zhexian Valley again.

Anyway, the token to open the ancient ruins isn't on him. If anything goes wrong, just find Yining to sort it out.

The following period of time.

Shen Changqing stayed in the Town Demon Division, silently refining the Spirit Vein Heart.

He is now just one step away from achieving immortality.

But this step.

It's not easy to take that step.

Fortunately.

The Lingmai Heart is the root of the Lingmai, containing extremely powerful spiritual energy within. If one were to refine it completely, it would undoubtedly have a tremendous effect.

Although Shen Changqing wasn't certain, he said that refining the Spirit Vein Heart would definitely allow him to advance to the complete level of the Immortal Golden Body.

But.

Right now, he can only do this.

Otherwise.

Relying solely on kill points is simply not enough.

The fastest way to advance right now is to refine the Heart of Spirit Vein and see if it's possible to break through successfully.

For a month.

Shen Changqing has been in seclusion in his bedroom.

>

In his palm, the Heart of Spiritual Veins was tightly held. The boundless spiritual energy within it constantly surged into his flesh.

Next.

...was immediately refined by qi and blood.

Every wisp of spiritual energy that is refined can strengthen one's power by a tiny bit.

One month has passed.

The spiritual energy within the Spirit Vein's heart has already been depleted by half.

Although it still appears dazzling on the surface, its inner essence is significantly diminished.

Here's the translation of your provided text, keeping the HTML tags as you requested:***Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

As the harvest.

Shen Changqing felt that he had already successfully taken a big step forward based on the ninth level of Wan Jie's true body.

Although I haven't truly stepped into the tenth level yet, the gap isn't as wide as it was at the beginning.

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

Immortal True Form, Tenth Stage!

The main purpose is to turn the golden skull into a spirit.

As the most mysterious part of the human body, the process of mummification must be handled with the utmost care.

Otherwise.

If something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable.

“Almost there!”

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

"Give me another month, and I might be able to truly achieve a golden skull!"

Seeing the golden rendering in his sea of consciousness, Shen Changqing's face was filled with relief.t God Race has fallen for a long time.But the true beginning of the decline of the divine race was after the last Divine Emperor passed away.All the gods and celestial beings.In Shen Changqing's eyes,...
