In the early summer, at the border assembly, Emperor Hong Wu summoned all the princes and officials of the empire to discuss major issues. He declared that the Great Wall, which spanned ten thousand miles and stretched for ten million miles, would be built and built wherever the imperial government's campaign through the wasteland would take place.
Once this matter was announced, a huge uproar arose both within and outside the imperial court. However, there were no officials or imperial editors who came out to object. They were all shocked for a bit before regaining their senses and praising the majesty of the emperor.
It was just that the Celestial Emperor Hongwu had never failed in any of his missions. Whether that year, when they had been on the same track, he had written the same words and dismissed hundreds of families, or when he had opened a canal and divided the eighteen prefectures into different territories, or when he had set up the two mountains as the mountain pass, he had never failed once.
Back then, before the construction of the canal, there were many people who opposed it. Many of the ministers were even admonishing them with their lives, not sparing to knock their heads against the golden temple to force the Hongwu Emperor to retract his order.
But in fact, in just a few years, the canals had opened and the weather was calm, the transportation speed had increased by more than ten times. In fact, the canals themselves had opened up and created countless jobs for who knows how many people. In the past, there had been many goods that were sold late in the country, but they could also be passed through the canals and waterways. The amount of revenue was increased by more than tenfold in an instant, and in an instant, the Hong Dynasty and the people seemed to have become prosperous together, with the strength of the nation entering a period of great "leap forward".
And the same track, the same words, the same measure … This series of actions to unify the world, in the hearts of the people, in the fields, and in the hearts of countless people, the Hongwu Emperor was omnipotent. Often, many impossible things could be turned into miracles in his hands.
However, ever since the matter of the Great Wall's construction was announced to the world and was put on the agenda, on the surface, the officials all obediently listened.
The imperial government needed to build a great wall that extended for thousands of miles, with walls that could be used for running horses, residents, troops that could be deployed, manpower, resources, logistics, as well as the location to be selected for the Divine Arts Academy, the scheduled start of construction, materials to be transported to different places, and the people being enslaved … It was as if the entire empire was stirred up by these events. If this Great Wall was truly built, it would connect through all eighteen prefectures and enter deep into the wilderness, and countless miracles could be produced. Even in the era of the Ancient 72 Martial Gods, such a miracle had never happened, but now, it was about to appear …
After Hong Yu left the palace, he didn't return to the Guest Hall, but stayed in the vicinity of the border market. In Mo Ning Xiang's house, he didn't contact the other princes or officials, nor did he maintain relations with them.
Some of the things that Emperor Hongwu, Hong Po, had said to him today were simply too shocking. He felt that his brain wasn't working well enough, and he couldn't understand many of the things that had been said.
Now that he had the time, he turned around and calmed down, but it was as if he was going to think carefully about it. He combed through their relationship, attempting to uncover some secret information.
Every day he would take some time to meditate, the words "three provinces in a day" were said by the Confucian sages. He deeply believed that even though he did not dare compare himself to a saint, he would still meditate every day to reflect on his actions.
"All these years, you've been bullied and humiliated in the palace, bullied and bullied by those princes and concubines. Do you blame me?"
"If that's not the case, how could your fate be reversed and you obtain such a great opportunity?"
"I owe your mother some things, so I'll give you some fortuitous encounters that originally didn't belong to you, and help you change your life."
"You have obtained some fortuitous opportunity from Old Eighteen. This is something that I have done, but I will naturally make up for it. Naturally, I will give him even greater benefits."
"In the future, you'll definitely have a chance. Perhaps it might be Eighteen, or perhaps it might be unknown. Of course Eighteen will have his own chance …"
He took out the Kun Peng feather that the Hong Wu Emperor gifted him. It was so powerful that it seemed to be able to cover the mountains and rivers. The words "A man can conquer the heavens" on the feather were engraved deeply into his heart like a sword.
After an unknown period of time, the owner of the house, Mo Ningxiang, quietly walked in, "What's wrong with you? I have been running back and forth between your manor and the borders for the past few days, buying and investing in your lands, and I was extremely busy. When I heard that you had returned from the imperial court and were sitting quietly, I immediately rushed back and guessed that you might have something on your mind and wanted to give me some pointers. As expected, your meditation this time around has lasted a lot longer than usual. Your mind also seems to be wandering and you aren't as calm as before. "
"Tell me, just how strong is the Emperor?"
Hong Yu did not answer his question. Instead, he suddenly asked a question that countless people were thinking about. This question was repeated for many years, and no one knew the exact answer. However, he could not help but ask it.
She also knew of treasures, so she directly pointed to the Kun Peng feather in Hong Yu's hand. "There is a type of sea beast called the Kun, which was originally a small blue eel fish like a mayfly, resided in a shallow sea and looked up at the sky, wanting to soar into the nine heavens. Thus, it hibernated, ate the prawns, grew continuously, grew bigger and bigger, until it could not even contain the shallow sea anymore, so it could only go deep into the four seas, fight with sharks, and fight with sea beasts. "Entering into the desolate starry sky, traveling with the stars and the Milky Way …"
"As the great roc of the Giant Leviathan, I only hate the heavens for not daring to fly. This is a poem created by royal father in the past year of Hongwu. This story of yours symbolizes the concept of this poem, but the meaning is more vulgar and clear. A poem came out of Hong Yu Yin's mouth. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You're saying? royal father is even larger than the heavens and earth, they can no longer contain him? "
"This is not what I said, but what the Hongwu Emperor himself said. These two lines of the poem 'Yeshi' are incomparably obvious. Without a doubt." Mo Ning Xiang looked at the sky, feeling somewhat uneasy. She said in a heavy tone, "Otherwise, there wouldn't be a prophecy, saying that a Sky Execution would descend at any time. When that time comes, the Emperor would disappear, and the world would be thrown into chaos. Of course, we can't guess the specifics, nor do we dare to speculate. When we think about it, compared to gods, we can't even compare to a speck of dust, and gods are afraid of Emperors Hong Wu. If it were not for the fact that the heaven and earth could not contain him, how could Sky Execution have appeared? "
"We are too weak, like worms in a bowl. The dust on the leaves makes it impossible for us to even think about such things. To royal father, to the Sky Execution, it was simply unimaginable, what exactly was it? However, I also asked royal father, he said that the Sky Execution is true, and that it is not a lie. How do you think we should deal with such a situation? " Hong Yu asked again: "Whether it is when I go to see the Buddha or this time when I meet the royal father, I have heard a similar reminder, telling me to speed up my growth and to work hard to save up. It looks like after Sky Execution, royal father will disappear and the world will fall into chaos. This kind of rumor is not fake, we need to prepare in advance. "
"If something really goes wrong with the Hongwu Emperor and he disappears from this world, then we will all die without a burial ground at the first possible moment." Mo Ningxiang said in a low voice, "Not to mention the outside of the Imperial Court, even within the Imperial Court, those princes would still fight for power and would not let us off. First Prince, Second Prince, Seventh Prince, and Old Fourth Prince, these people all want to take action to divide up the two of us.
"It won't be that easy for me to divide it up." Hong Yu sneered, his heart surging with a strong desire to survive, his battle intent surged, he wished for nothing more than to immediately produce a miracle, his strength had risen sharply, and before his brothers could make their move in the future, he could make the first move, but he still swiftly calmed down and thought about what he should do next in order to face the current situation: "Right now, the most important thing for us is to do everything possible to increase our strength as much as possible."
"In any case, I've decided to sell my entire body to you. You're different from the other princes. You're extremely human, but you're worth it for me to follow you." Mo Ningxiang thought for a while and said, "But my Mo family has limitations. Many factions, even I can't control them. Otherwise, we can use some of the Mo family's power to arrange for your future."
"No worries, if my martial arts reaches large success and I have the right to speak, I will naturally follow you to the Mo family to recruit people and let you truly grasp the power of the Mo family." The lid of the furnace opened, and a large amount of spirit energy was drawn down from the void. As he breathed in and out, it entered the depths of the dantian's Qi Sea, and then passed through the acupoints, the golden energy in his body transformed into a ball of energy, which then seeped out from under the skin and turned into an air soldier, which then underwent a myriad of changes and turned into a blade and sword, bell, cauldron, golden spear, and long spear …
Over a hundred air soldiers were floating around him, radiating cold glints. Their killing power was extraordinary, comparable to some divine weapons. Under the shine of this cold gloss, it could be seen clearly even in the dark chamber.
At this moment, Hong Yu was like the king of all weapons, the God of All Weapons! Even the most insignificant strand of True Divine Spirit Qi within his body, under his will, could turn into a steel needle dagger that could kill without being visible.
He was circulating the trillions of golden lance martial arts, using the five hundred golden lance particles in his body to slowly train his familiarity with the astral energy. He strived his best to be able to use all of the astral energy in his body as much as possible and truly break through to the third level of the Divine Stash.
This was a course that all living creatures had to do in order to reach the third level of the Divine Stash, the Elephant Qi Realm, and the First Heavenly Layer of the Body Refinement Realm as well as to transform into a Dragon, Elephant, Tiger, and Leopard.
From the second to the third stage of the Divine Vault, it was an extremely long process of cultivation, involving even more profound usage of the Astral Qi.
The second stage, was merely converting the Qi of the First Sky into various kinds of weapons. Although its destructive power was shocking, it was still not invincible, but the third stage experts were different. They turned the thick Qi of the First Sky into dragons, tigers, leopards, and even some of the more profound ones were able to condense a pair of wings of the Qi of the First Sky.
In order to cultivate to this realm, one had to train for a long period of time. One had to completely control the Supreme Force in the body like one's arm. Only then could one control it to the finest detail. Especially Hong Yu; he cultivated the trillions of golden lances. The essence was too profound, and the barrier over his realm was even more solid than experts of the same realm. It would be even more difficult to actually cultivate it. However, once it was successfully refined, the accumulation and accumulation of one's foundation, as well as the thickness of one's astral qi, would be several times greater than that of an ordinary master, reaching a terrifying state.
Recently, he had received warnings from the Nihility God Sage and the Hongwu Emperor and felt quite a bit of pressure. Moreover, after meeting and chatting with these unrivalled Giants, he had gained a lot of insights and comprehended a lot of things.
Passing through the mountain pass, one would be able to walk a wide road and cultivate for a thousand miles in a single day.
However, while he was stuck here, he could only slowly temper his martial arts with water and slowly train his speed.
He cultivated in this secret room for three days and three nights, Mo Ning Xiang had left as well. Alone, the Qi of the First Heavenly Layer flowed freely from every single pore on his body, circulating without a shred of dissatisfaction. Strands of energy were like fine tentacles growing out of his body, extremely agile.
