Whether fishing can be successful depends first on whether the bait is fat enough, and whether the fish is hungry. And the most important thing is to make the fish think it can swallow the bait and escape safely. Otherwise, fishing becomes just a show of waving a line, and hard work results in nothing but laughter.
Tang Qing had no control over these matters. After getting Ziyang's nod, Tang Qing focused on his own safety. He is the bait, an ant cultivator who wants to face a group of old monsters directly. What can he do without enough backup?
After the plan for the day was finalized, Tang Qing and several giants split up and made preparations intensively. Before leaving, Tang Qing was excited by what Bat King said, and at the same time, he broke into a cold sweat.
"I know that you are thinking about yourself, but it doesn't matter. The situation in the empire will change drastically because of this. I asked Susu to accompany you to reassure you. If this happens, I will teach you the first three skills of the Nine Transformations of Wind Control. The law is good for oneself."
After saying that, Bat King turned and left without asking if Tang Qingle was unhappy, leaving him confused as to what the situation was.
"The first three levels? Are you giving me opium?" Someone expressed doubts about Bat King's intentions.
"The Long family has a successor!" Aunt Yun praised.
"Buddha is compassionate!" Emptiness was chanting Buddha's name again.
"Those who are too narrow-minded will age quickly!" Tang Qing cursed maliciously, causing Baimei to curse
Soon, several pieces of information that were only spread within a small range were released extremely cleverly, causing ripples in the empire.
At a low level, the Chena Empire suddenly launched a purge operation against large family industries across the country. Of course, other families were just showing off, with only two immediate targets: Shangguan and the Mercenary Association!
The government, the enshrining hall, the Long family, and even some sect forces, like a group of hungry wolves, all attacked together, using various names and excuses to suppress the Shangguan family's industry, branch clans, and even personnel. Once the state power is put into operation, its power and efficiency are despairing, and the excuses are all kinds of weird and all-purpose. It can be called a model of shamelessness.
For example, the Shangguan family¡¯s production center, which specialized in providing spiritual tools for the Northwest Camp, was directly sealed by Longbeard¡¯s leaders. The reason used was: unqualified hygiene!
"The empire has the obligation to protect the health and safety of technicians. They are the wealth of the empire!"
Long Beard has obtained the true biography of Tang Qing, and he loudly read out the charges to the head of the Shangguan family. When the poor monk heard such an unreasonable announcement, he was so angry that he fainted. He only had time to send out an emergency symbol and was captured without any effort.
Even the letter talisman was deliberately leaked by Dragon Beard, to give the Shangguan family a sense of urgency and force them to rebel.
"The spicy guy next door! He didn't resist?"
Dragon Beard was still aggrieved, thinking that Tang Qing was the most suitable person for this matter. If it were him, he would definitely kill them all, and he wouldn't even bother to find an excuse.
At the intermediate level, the empire warned the members of the Shangguan family spread across the country on the grounds that the elite meeting attracted external spies, and ordered them to go to the enshrinement hall within a time limit to register a list of people, including their own clan and their descendants, including men, women, old and children. It fell into the heart of Shangguan Patriarch that he was undoubtedly going to carry out a plan to exterminate the clan, and the response was urgent.
The changes at the top are very interesting. I don't know who heard it from someone, but the reason why Tang Qing was able to advance quickly was because he received the Demon Slayer Blade and inheritance from the old man. The general meaning is that the Demon Slayer Blade is actually a key that can open the cave of an ancient immortal. With Tang Qing's strength, he can only get the most basic benefits for entry-level monks. If it is obtained by a high-level monk, the effect will be unparalleled. Not to mention becoming an immortal in a day, at least breaking through to become a god will not be a problem.
Later, there was a further statement that the reason why Tang Qing returned was because the restrictions inside were powerful and required the help of high-level monks to break them. As for why Tang Qing didn't hide and practice quietly, it was because although he had benefited from it, he was implanted in his soul by some secret method. He was unable to crack it and was about to perish, so he had no choice but to return to this.
The specific situation is mysterious and vague. In short, there is such a thing, but no one can explain it clearly. As for why this news was leaked to Shangguan Jinhong's ears, Master Ziyang had many ideas.
After thousands of years of getting along, the members of the Long family are so clean? Just like the ordinary world, there is an infinite existence for each other. As for how to achieve realism, it is really not a problem for these old monsters. It can be done with just a raise of hands.
Things are so wonderful, I¡¯m not afraid that you don¡¯t believe it, I¡¯m just afraid that you want to believe it!
As long as you have hope in your heart, you will naturally be willing to believe some rumors that seem unreliable. It's like we know that the stock market is a money-making machine, but we still can't help but throw money into it. We can't tell the specifics.What? "
As he spoke, Shangguan Jinhong waved his sleeves, and a cloud of black mist emerged, from which came bursts of manic and vicious roars, and the aura was astonishing.
The crowd around them all changed their expressions, and the black clouds where the elder was standing shook violently. They asked with some uncertainty: "Could this thing, this person be"
"That's right, it's the Lord Jiuyou!"
Ancestor Shangguan seemed extremely confident about impressing the Pharaoh, and said calmly: "The Nine Netherworld is only half a line away from the realm of divine transformation. What its soul means to the Pharaoh, I don't need to explain. Brother Taoist, just one sentence, This thing is at your fingertips, how about it?¡±
Heiyun was silent for a moment, then there was a strange Jie Jie sound, and the old man's voice, like gold and stone intertwined, said: "I heard that Jiuyou is good at refining the mysterious corpse"
"Ten mysterious corpses in the late stage of pill formation."
Shangguan Jinhong said decisively: "Fellow Taoist, you should know that this is my limit. I can drift away today. Even if you join forces with others, are you sure you can keep me here?"
Everyone was dumbfounded because what he said was right. Shangguan Patriarch is unfathomable. Who knows whether the cultivation he is showing now is true or false. If he wants to escape, it is impossible for everyone to fight like life and death enemies and still come and go freely. It's better to get some ready-made benefits, why not!
**The old man hesitated for a moment, then laughed and said: "Okay! I promise you, I will withdraw from this matter and ignore Tang Qing's life and death. Take it!"
After saying that, a mysterious rune suddenly flew out of the black cloud, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a small chariot, like a huge heart, and flew straight to the front of Shangguan Ancestor.
** The old voice sounded: "Pharaoh's vowing, you must not believe it, this seat uses the heart as an oath, can you say something?"
The ancestor of Shangguan said: "How dare you disobey your orders!"
After saying that, he waved his hand to put away the rune, raised his hand and pushed it gently. The cloud surrounding Jiuyou Divine Lord struggled and flew towards the elder in waves of extremely vicious roars. Following them, there were ten black and gloomy mysterious corpses, heading towards the black cloud together.
**The old man laughed wildly, and the black cloud rolled up, turning into a giant palm several feet in size, directly sucking the soul of Jiuyou and the mysterious corpse into it, and in the blink of an eye, it was collected in the cloud, and no sound was heard again.
After doing all this, the black clouds returned to calm again, floating in the sky and peering coldly, but did not leave.
When Shangguan Jinhong saw this, he frowned and said, "Fellow Taoist"
?? **The old weirdo smiled and said: "I don't want to interfere, just watch the excitement! As long as you don't break your oath, God can't do anything to me. Brother Dao, just do what you want, no need to worry about it."
Shangguan Jinhong thought for a while, smiled and said, "It's okay, fellow Taoist, just feel free to wait."
After saying that, Shangguan Jinhong turned around, cupped his fists towards the orc prince, and said, "If your highness can be like the pharaoh, I promise to provide your country with 10,000 spiritual tools every year in the future. What do you want from your highness?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone¡¯s expressions changed drastically.
