Great Xuanwu Sheng

Qixuan Town.

In the bustling town, Chen Mu and Yuan Hong were walking. No one noticed the two of them as they passed by. Although they were walking among the streets, they seemed to be clearly separated from the other people in the town. Two worlds.

Yuan Hong took a few steps forward, looked at the hustle and bustle in the streets, and suddenly said with some nostalgia: "Once upon a time, the world was still peaceful. I was the prince of Zhenbei, but I liked martial arts, hung out at the bottom, and came into contact with the three religions and nine streams. I have led people to exterminate bandits, and I have also gone deep into bandits' dens to rescue people from fire and water. At that time, my father once scolded me, saying that a son with a rich man cannot sit down in court, but I said that in doing martial arts, courage comes first, my father said again , If that’s the case, then go ahead and do the things of hundreds of families.”

"Later, I was assigned to serve as the chief mission officer of the City Guard Department to control one side. He also assigned me to the Zhenbei Prefecture Army as a school captain to fight against the foreign races outside the pass. He also appointed me to be the supervisory envoy to supervise all officials... I am diligent in everything I do. When he is in charge, he will plan his affairs. When I take over the Zhenbei King Seal, everything will be done by heart."

Chen Mu and Yuan Hong walked side by side, strolling casually, listening to Yuan Hong's narration, his demeanor did not change much. About the rise of Zhenbei King, his half-life experience was also widely circulated in Hanbei.

At the beginning, he hung out at the bottom, and then served in many government offices. The first half of his journey was similar to his. The difference was that Yuan Hong was the prince of Zhenbei. No matter how he hung out, there must be someone secretly protecting him at all times, and he came to the last two years of this world. In the new year, it was like walking on thin ice. If you make the slightest mistake, you may be doomed.

Yuan Hong continued: "I have talked freely with actors, made friends with police officers, witnessed the life and death relationship between bandits, and seen the life and death of the rich and the poor. Finally, I asked the world with humanity, aspired to the unity of heaven and man, and reached the realm of martial arts."

When Chen Mu heard this, he finally said: "Martial arts in the world is nothing more than understanding the world and touching the essence of the world first. I never thought that the prince would go retrograde and question the world with humanity, which is rare in the world."

Yuan Hong's expression was as usual, without any arrogance, and he said: "Taoist, all laws are accessible. All the ways of cultivation, no matter what door or path, ultimately lead to the only road, from heaven and earth to people, or from people to heaven and earth." , are all paths of spiritual practice, not surprising.”

Chen Mu nodded slightly and said, "That's true."

Every master of heaven and man has his own belief. He must maintain that belief and will. Only then can he maintain his own will in the process of the unity of heaven and man, and not be assimilated by heaven and earth, and his soul return to heaven and earth.

Some people regard martial arts as their belief, some regard inheritance as their will, and some, like Yuan Hong, regard humanity as their belief.

Yuan Hong's few words sounded like one thing to another, and the meaning seemed unclear, but in fact Chen Mu heard it very clearly. This was Yuan Hong's calm explanation of his way of heaven and man. On the one hand, he was discussing the world with him. Martial arts, on the other hand, also made it clear to him the path he pursues, which is based on humanity.

If this is the belief, then the pursuit of world stability is not an empty talk, nor is it a false talk for the sake of one's own power. What's more, it may be an ambition for the world to be prosperous, the world to be prosperous, and everyone to be like a dragon.

"Your Majesty, do you want to be that Nine-Five-Year-Old Lord?"

Chen Mu thought for a while and asked directly without going around too much.

Yuan Hong glanced across the noisy and bustling market, shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter who sits in that seat. I only hope that the world will be prosperous, the common people will be stable, and humanity will prosper."

After hearing this, Chen Mu said in an easy-going tone: "It is no coincidence that the prince can aspire to be the king of heaven. Those characters in the Ji family have been fighting for power for decades, all for that position. Just in terms of their moods, they are very different. No wonder they all failed."

As a heavenly master, who cares about power?

From Yuan Hong's mouth, it is true that he does not care about the imperial status. Just like Chen Mu now, he does not care about the so-called imperial status and has no interest in worldly power.

He believed in his own talent and will, and believed in himself, and he would be able to transcend this world in the future. However, Yuan Hong believed that man can conquer heaven, and believed in the entire human race and the entire humanity. Yushanhe will surely surpass this world in the future.

When they reached the realm of Chen Mu and Yuan Hong, they were fighting against heaven and earth.

However, people like the King of Han and the King of Jin are still competing for power and fighting with others, and they are more than a step behind in their realm. It is no wonder that few of the Eight Kings have entered the realm of blood exchange. Currently, the only one, Ji Xuanfei, It was still practiced after ascending to the throne of God.

"I wonder what Mr. Chen thinks of the world situation?"

When Yuan Hong saw that Chen Mu was talking casually, without any temptation or twists and turns, he stopped and looked at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu cast his gaze to the distant sky and said leisurely: "I am only a common warrior, what else can the world do to me? I just want to act as I please and do what I want."

If it were in his previous life, or when he first came to this life, he would naturally have thoughts of being respected by the emperor. However, after experiencing countless ups and downs and tribulations, and using force to conquer the world, his thoughts on worldly power have long faded.

Worldly trivialities are nothing but ties.

When he has transcended the secular world and is called a saint in the world, there is no thought of sinking into the secular world again.

"That's quite free and easy."

When Yuan Hong heard Chen Mu's words, he couldn't help but sigh, but he wasn't surprised at all.

This kind of mentality is rare for ordinary people, but it is very common for the top martial arts experts in the world. At least half of those heavenly masters are so open-minded and don't care about authority.

Even those who coveted secular power, such as Yang Qingshan of the Nanzhao Wushen Sect, supported Ji Xuanfei in his attempt to seize the throne, in order to use the foundation of the Daxuan court to satisfy their other matters.

After the words fell.

Yuan Hong continued to step forward, this time the pace was slightly faster. After a few steps, he had left Qixuan Town, and Chen Mu also followed him. The two figures were like fairy shadows, vague and indistinct. In an instant, they arrived at Yu The capital city of the state.

Returning to Yuzhou Fucheng after many years, Chen Mu glanced casually and saw that the entire Fucheng had a completely new look. Compared with the past, the chaos in the outer city had disappeared. There was order in the streets and alleys, and police officers patrolled back and forth.

"Division, division, and union are the general trend of the world. Today's promulgation of nine points is not a bad thing for the common people."

Yuan Hong stood on the city wall of Yuzhou Prefecture, overlooking the scenery in Yuzhou City, and said in a calm tone: "Zhenbei Prefecture has taken in all the states and counties to govern, and it has been quite effective so far. As far as I know, except Xiguan Road, the other roads It’s the same thing. After decades of chaos, it’s time to recuperate.”

Chen Mu glanced over the scenery of Yuzhou City, and after listening to Yuan Hong's words, he finally understood Yuan Hong's intention. The King of Zhenbei wanted to maintain the current situation.

Today, it is extremely difficult to unify the world.

No matter Yuan Hong, King Jin, or Emperor Xuan Fei, the same goes for Ji Xuanfei. In the nine-pointed world, no matter which side wants to eliminate the eight wastelands, it will not be easy. Once a fight breaks out, the world will be turbulent and chaotic.

In Yuan Hong's view, the only person in today's world who has the ability to reorganize the world is not him, nor the Six Kings, nor the Six Paths Alliance, nor Ji Xuanfei, but Chen Mu. Only Chen Mu can purge the world. , reset the mountains and rivers.

therefore.

He came to Yuzhou.

He wanted to know Chen Mu's plan.

If Chen Mu intends to reorganize the world, he will lead Zhenbei Mansion to help him after testing Chen Mu's strength, striving to pacify the world in the shortest possible time and reunite the world.

If Chen Mu had no intention of gaining power, then he would maintain the current situation and maintain temporary stability.

"If so, that would be great."

Chen Mu looked into the distance.

He knew that what Yuan Hong said was not false. If the situation in today's world was like this, it would indeed be understandable. King Zhenbei's plan was also in line with his intentions. It was a rare moment of stability.

When Yuan Hong heard Chen Mu's answer, his slightly tense mood finally relaxed.

It would be great if Chen Mu could agree with the current world situation.

after all.

The world is divided into nine parts, and it is difficult to start a war. With Chen Mu overlooking the world, it is even more difficult to fight again. It can be said that as long as Chen Mu is alive, the world will have peace for a day, and Chen Mu is in his prime. !

Chen Mu's words today may have laid the foundation for the stability and prosperity of the world for the next two to three hundred years.

However.

At this point, Chen Mu's tone changed slightly, with a hint of lightness, and said: "However, I have always been clear about grudges in my actions. Some old grudges in the past still need to be settled one by one."

Yuan Hong naturally knew what the old grievances mentioned by Chen Mu were referring to. He pondered for a while and said: "The King of Han has now ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan. He is in charge of the center and controls the royal family's thousands of years of history. It is not easy to deal with."

Nowadays, Xuanji Pavilion, Xueyin Tower and other sects have all moved to Zhongzhou. If Chen Mu wants to attack the two sects, he will need to go to Zhongzhou and step into the territory of the imperial court. In addition, Ji Xuanfei has now come to the land of blood exchange and takes charge of the great empire. Xuan Chuyun is no longer as easy to deal with as it used to be. Even if Chen Mu has unrivaled force, he may not be able to do anything to him in the land of Zhongzhou.

Unless it's an assassination attempt.

That can indeed make Ji Xuanfei and even Xuanji Pavilion, Xueyin Pavilion and many other forces extremely fearful, forcing them to constantly restrain themselves and be vigilant at all times, but as long as they cannot be uprooted, this kind of dispute will only make the situation chaotic.

After listening to Yuan Hong's words, Chen Mu looked indifferent and didn't say much.

Suddenly.

He cast his gaze in a certain direction.

Yuan Hong noticed it earlier and looked at it as well.

In the sight of the two of them, dozens of miles away, a figure was walking in a hurry, bypassing the capital city of Yuzhou and going straight to the direction of the mountain gate of Qixuan Sect.

Although the person had restrained his energy and body, he had nowhere to hide under the gazes of Chen Mu and Yuan Hong. With just one glance, they both recognized the origin of the other person. His face was white and beardless, and his aura was feminine. He was from the palace. The middle man!

People in the palace come to Qixuanzong now. What are they doing?

You almost don't need to think about it to know that it must be for Chen Mu.

"Your Majesty, what do you think the person who sent someone here at this time has in mind?"

After Chen Mu looked at it, he turned to look at Yuan Hong and smiled faintly.

Yuan Hong put his hands behind his hands and looked away, and said calmly: "It's nothing more than canonization, win over, and instigation."

Under the attention of the two people, they saw the palace eunuch walking quickly, and soon he was dozens of miles away. Chen Mu and Yuan Hong looked at each other, did not speak, but stepped forward together and disappeared. On the city wall of Yuzhou Fucheng.

…

Qixuanzong.

Outside the mountain gate.

Zhao Quan, the eunuch of the palace, looked indifferent and came to the mountain road.

"who?!"

Yu Cheng, the protector guarding the mountain gate, frowned slightly when he saw Zhao Quan approaching. Although he could tell Zhao Quan's origin from the clothes he wore as an eunuch, he still shouted at him.

Compared with Yuan Hong, the king of Zhenbei, the imperial eunuch is nothing. If it were in the past, Yu Cheng would still be afraid of three points, but now the nine points in the world, the imperial court can't care about Hanbei's affairs at all, and even more. Nothing.

but.

Hearing Yu Cheng's shout, Zhao Quan glanced away, revealing a hint of displeasure. He snorted coldly, and a surge of energy suddenly spread, causing Yu Cheng's face to change slightly. He felt like his breathing was stagnant, and he was... Forced to take a few steps back.

This is the qi machine belonging to the marrow-cleansing master, and the visitor is a master who is in prison!

Seeing Yu Cheng retreating, Zhao Quan's eyes flashed with a hint of arrogance. He, the grand master of the inner court and a mere sect protector, dared to scold him. He came with an imperial edict this time, let alone a sect. The sect protector, Qi Zhiyuan, the headmaster of the Qixuan Sect, should also treat him with courtesy and invite him into the mountain to read out the decree.

"Zhidian Supervisor, Zhao Quan, is here to deliver the decree on the orders of the Holy One."

Zhao Quan was standing in front of the Qixuan Sect's mountain gate at this time. He did not take the initiative to step in. He only spoke slowly. His voice was soft but contained a force. In an instant, it reverberated throughout the Qixuan Sect, causing countless disciples to raise their heads. .

The sound echoed along the valley, causing a sudden commotion within Qixuan Sect.

Uh-huh!

Almost at the next moment, Qi Zhiyuan, the headmaster of Qixuan Sect, appeared beside the path in front of the mountain.

He looked at Zhao Quan, bowed and said:

"The headmaster of the Qixuan Sect is here, please Zhao Zhangshou to announce the decree."

Zhao Quan looked at Qi Zhiyuan, then at Yu Cheng and some Qixuan Sect deacons who were not far away. They all stood there stunned, with a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in their eyes.

Qi Zhiyuan was the leader of the generation, a master figure. Daxuan has always stipulated that master figures do not have to kneel to receive imperial edicts, but Yu Cheng and other deacons who protect the law actually stood aside and did not know how to kneel to listen to edicts. This is really rude.

but.

After all, this is the mountain gate of Qixuan Sect. Zhao Quan also knows that the current Qixuan Sect is extraordinary, especially the existence of Chen Mu, which makes the master of Xuanji Pavilion, the master of Xueyin Building and others extremely fearful. It is not appropriate to have an attack, so he suppresses his emotions. Displeased, he took out a roll of yellow silk from his arms. The silk was embroidered with golden dragon patterns and was made of white jade.

"...Today, there is Chen Mu from Yuzhou. He first attacked the remnants of the Tianyao Sect in Bingzhou, and then resisted the invasion of foreign tribes outside the customs. He protected hundreds of millions of people in Bingzhou, and even traveled to the outer seas. He shocked foreign countries and spread the word. With great reputation and outstanding achievements, he was given the title of king and named "Bei Han". He is not subject to the control of the Taoist government and is hereditary! "

Although he had known the content in advance, Zhao Quan still had some ups and downs in his heart when he recited it at this time. After all, the person bestowed upon him was a hereditary and irreplaceable king, or a king of the opposite sex. Since the founding of Daxuan, he had been a handful of people. number!

in today's world.

Only at the beginning of the founding of the country in Daxuan, the four princes of the opposite gender, Zhenbei, Zhennan, Zhenxi and Zhendong, were conferred hereditary. Later, in the history of more than a thousand years, the Zhendong prince was expelled due to rebellion. There are only three kings of the opposite sex left.

Nowadays, another ‘King of Northern Cold’ has been conferred, who is also hereditary and distinguished in the world.

certainly.

Chen Mu's unparalleled martial arts is indeed enough to be awarded such a title. After all, he is the second person to cultivate the Dao of Qiankun in the millennium of Daxuan. He has also formed many friendships with Xuanji Pavilion, Xueyin Pavilion and other forces before. Hatred, this can be regarded as easing the relationship with a hereditary and irreplaceable king, and is specially granted not to be controlled by the Taoist government, and to be above Hanbei Road Zhenbeifu.

After the edict was read out, Zhao Quan closed the edict and held it in front of him. He saw Qi Zhiyuan standing there with a slight frown on his face and did not come forward to receive the edict, so he slowly said: "King Beihan is not in the mountain gate. ? Then Chief Qi will take over the order on your behalf.”

Qi Zhiyuan frowned.

Conferring Chen Mu the title of King of Northern Han... If it were in the past, when the Daxuan court was at its peak, such a conferment would have been extremely respectful. However, nowadays, the conferment is just a name.

What's more, there are many old grievances between Chen Mu and Xuanji Pavilion, Xueyin Tower and even Xuan Emperor Ji Xuanfei. I am afraid that Chen Mu himself may not be willing to use the false name of Lord Beihan to understand the old grievances. After all, to Chen Mu, this false name has no meaning. Too meaningful.

certainly.

From another perspective, this conferment can be regarded as Ji Xuanfei's initiative to ease the situation and not wanting to continue fighting with Chen Mu.

But this was Chen Mu's business after all, and he couldn't accept the order on his behalf.

Seeing Qi Zhiyuan standing still and making no movement, Zhao Quan's eyes darkened slightly and said, "Why didn't Master Qi accept the order? Could it be that he was trying to resist the order?"

This imperial edict does not have to be sent to Chen Mu, it only needs to be sent to the Qixuan Sect, but someone must take over the edict. Qi Zhiyuan is so indifferent, even if he is the leader and master of a sect, Some despise the imperial power too much.

but.

Just when Qi Zhiyuan frowned for a moment, not knowing how to deal with the matter, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps on the quiet mountain road.

Da da da,

Everyone was convinced, and turned their heads to look, and saw Chen Mu, dressed in long robes, walking slowly along the mountain path.

As soon as he saw Chen Mu appearing, Qi Zhiyuan felt relieved.

But Zhao Quan immediately became nervous, and his whole body was slightly tense. He dared to be arrogant in front of Qi Zhiyuan, but he still did not dare to be rude in front of Chen Mu. He also knew very well what kind of terrifying person Chen Mu was. Indeed, he is one of the very few beings in the world who is qualified to despise the imperial power!

The atmosphere fell into depression for a moment, and the only sound left on the quiet mountain path was Chen Mu's footsteps.

Chen Mu walked step by step and came to Zhao Quan. He stretched out his hand with a calm expression and took the imperial edict.

Seeing Chen Mu take over the imperial edict.

Zhao Quan suddenly felt happy.

but.

The next moment, his eyes suddenly froze, and he saw the imperial decree, which was gently pinched by Chen Mu's right hand. In an instant, it fell apart between his fingers and turned into a piece of dust.

"you……"

Zhao Quan's pupils shrank violently and he spoke in silence.

But before he finished speaking, he found that he could no longer make a sound. He subconsciously looked down and saw that his body, starting from his legs, turned into dust and disintegrated piece by piece.

Zhao Quan showed a hint of panic and tried his best to mobilize the power of his martial body and Yuan Gang's internal energy, but it was of no use and could not stop the collapse of his body. He just watched his body collapse from bottom to top, and finally It completely turned into a piece of dust, scattered in front of the mountain road of Qixuan Sect!

"List……"

Qi Zhiyuan was also slightly surprised. Unexpectedly, Chen Mu not only refused to accept the imperial edict, but even waved it away with his hand. This meant that Chen Mu had no intention of reconciling with Xuanji Pavilion, Xueyin Tower or even Xuan Emperor Ji Xuanfei.

Of course, compared to this, what made his heart more ups and downs was that he couldn't understand how Zhao Quan died.

Even though Zhao Quan was not as powerful as him, he was still an upright marrow cleansing master. However, let alone resisting in front of Chen Mu, he didn't even see Chen Mu make any move. His whole person turned into dust and disintegrated, and his martial body and Yuan Gang were all destroyed. like water off a duck's back.

Chen Mu...

What height has the current strength reached?

I recall that when Chen Mu entered the sect, he was just a true disciple with a slightly outstanding talent. Now, only ten years later, he, the head of Qixuan Sect, could no longer understand Chen Mu's methods.

After waving his hand to kill Zhao Quan, Chen Mu turned and looked behind.

"What the prince said before is to maintain the nine-point power of the world and let the people of Li recuperate and recuperate, which is also in line with my wishes, but only after I have taken care of these trivial matters."

"..."

Yuan Hong's figure quietly appeared not far away, his pupils shrinking as he stared at the yellow sand that Zhao Quan's body disintegrated into.

As a master of heavenly beings, he was different from Qi Zhiyuan. He could clearly see Chen Mu's method, which was to control the power of the universe to the extreme, fundamentally disintegrating Zhao Quan's entire being.

This move seemed simple, but in fact it was extremely terrifying. Even he felt a little terrified in his heart.

Actually.

Even he wanted to know the extent of Chen Mu's current strength, but he had no chance to test it. Now that Chen Mu had made it clear that he did not intend to resolve the old grudges with Ji Xuanfei, he should take action soon.

However, Yuan Hong was still thinking a little further. Chen Mu had indeed planned to take action, but not later, but——

Now!

"Master, Senior Yin, could you please take charge of the sect while I go to Zhongzhou."

Chen Mu spoke towards the mountain gate of Qixuan Sect. His voice condensed into a line, crossed the mountains, and reached the back cliff of Taixuan Peak, ringing in the ears of Qin Mengjun and Yin Heng.

Qin Mengjun and Yin Heng were both paying attention to the situation in front of the mountain gate. When they heard Chen Mu's message, their eyes froze.

Chen Mu said it lightly.

But when we go to Zhongzhou, a big battle is inevitable, and this battle will definitely attract the attention of the world. This is the first time that Chen Mu will take action in the world after entering the realm of blood exchange. It is also the first time in the thousands of years since the founding of Daxuan that someone wants to rely on his own power. Use force to shake the court!

"Be careful."

Qin Mengjun knew Chen Mu's character, so she would not try to dissuade him, but would just remind him in a calm voice.

Chen Mu looked calm and responded: "Master, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I go, it won't be long."

Say it.

He cast his gaze into the distance, and then he rose up from the ground, turned into a rainbow, cut through the cold northern sky, and headed straight towards Zhongzhou!

In front of the mountain path of Qixuan Sect, Qi Zhiyuan and others were still standing in the distance. At this time, they all looked in the direction where Chen Mu disappeared. When they came back to their senses, they all felt a turmoil in their hearts!

…

It is the eighth day of the seventh lunar month in the 1,439th year of the Great Xuan Calendar.

The Supreme Elder of the Qixuan Sect, Chen Mu, left Hanbei and went to Zhongzhou.

In one day,

The world is paying attention!

Most people in the world don't know what happened in Zhongzhou on that day, but they all know that from that day on, Chen Mu's name shocked the world, and he was gradually respected by the world as...Martial Saint!
