Dominating Martial King-Chapter 1471 - 513: Military Council

The problem is that these mere five hundred troops are probably incapable of resisting the opponent’s guerrilla army.

The Yan State Hundred Clans can easily muster tens of thousands of troops in various places.

And why bring so many copper mirrors? Polish the iron armor? What use is this?

"If the first two requests cannot be met, then prioritize the last two."

Chu Yunyun’s blue eyes glimmered with a dark light: "This is an iron law and my winning method, all units must follow orders without defiance!"

If she had about a year, she could also take Yan State.

But if the time is shortened to three months, then she must rely on Chu Xisheng’s Vengeance Blade.

In the hall, the generals all exchanged puzzled glances upon hearing this.

Their eyes were full of amazement and confusion.

However, since Chu Yunyun joined the army, she has been invincible and holds high prestige. Although the generals were puzzled, they still bowed in agreement, creating a thunderous echo.

Chu Yunyun continued tapping the table: "But the connection between various units indeed poses a problem. I plan to use the secret medicine of Yan State as a lead to attract Jianghu heroes, filling the gaps between units to make up for our army’s shortcomings."

These Jianghu travellers can act more flexibly, filling the gaps between units and providing early warnings.

"And there’s also the Jiuli Gaoshan Clan!" At this moment, a young general with a tiger-headed face and a raised nose among the generals cupped his hands and said in a booming voice, "There are still a large number of high mountain tribes in the Cliff Mountain Range, who share deep hatred with the Giant Spirits. As long as we are willing to offer Yan State land, we can easily attract a million high mountain troops, the General must take note!"

Chu Yunyun’s eyes lit up involuntarily: "Good! I remember your name is Ji Qianqiu? I will credit you for this merit!"

The Jiuli Gaoshan Clan is also a branch of the Human Clan, far more reliable than those alien races of Yan State.

Chu Yunyun couldn’t help but think of Shui Canglang.

Several years ago, Shui Canglang and Gong Wugou had already become her most capable assistants.

If these two were here now to help her close gaps and monitor the troops, Chu Yunyun would be much more relaxed.

Unfortunately, these two seem to have taken some confusing potion from Chu Xisheng, believing that they could achieve success only in the south, within the Iron Banner Gang.

This time, Chu Yunyun summoned the two northward using a talisman, but both were tactfully declined.

However, at this moment, the two from the Water Palace are indeed high-spirited.

Within the Iron Banner Gang, they are now the only two renowned generals skilled in land warfare, their experience and skills unparalleled.

The two have led the former troops of the Divine Strategy Camp, capturing nine county cities in ’Huai State’ for the Iron Banner Gang within three months, nearly occupying the regions between ’Canglang River’ and ’Shenxiu River.’ They have not only controlled the Grand Canal but also the counties along the ’Tianhuai River.’

’Huai State’ is a strategic location. Chu Xisheng intends to confront the Daning Dynasty along the Shenxiu River, dragging the Daning Court to its downfall; ’Huai State’ is a must-hold place.

Now, the Iron Banner Gang has already seized the initiative.

Chu Yunyun thought of Chu Xisheng again, wondering what that fellow was doing now?

※※※※

Chu Xisheng was on the Golden Summit of the Formless Divine Mountain, troubled by the surging Dragon Energy around him.

Ever since Chu Yunyun, under the title of ’General of Northern Town’, truly took control of the border army and managed the affairs of the Four States, the Dragon Energy around Chu Xisheng began to lose control.

Day by day, it surged and transformed into twelve crimson Yeen Dragons, constantly spiraling and dancing around Chu Xisheng, shining with brilliant golden light, even forming a towering Luck Gold Pillar reaching a thousand feet into the sky.

Those Yeen Dragons would often roar with raised heads, their sound reverberating for dozens of miles, echoing through the Cloud Sky.

This scene not only amazed the two masters on the Golden Summit and numerous sorcerers.

It also attracted a large crowd of disciples from the Formless Divine Mountain to come and observe.

They couldn’t get close, only gazing from afar, watching the surging Dragon Energy and the golden, shining Chu Xisheng.

"So this is Brother Chu? His aura is overwhelming."

"Twelve Dragon God Heavenly Guardian! The rumors turned out to be true."

"Look at the flourishing Dragon Energy, Brother Chu truly has an emperor’s Life Chart."

"What a strong Luck Gold Pillar, it’s my first time witnessing such a spectacle."

Chu Xisheng was confused at first, but later he learned that after Chu Yunyun proclaimed herself ’General of Northern Town’ in Ice State and honored Chu Xisheng as ’Divine Might General, North Territory Governor, Governor of Military and Civil Affairs,’ he understood the reason.

He is now nominally the Four States Sovereign; hence, the Dragon Energy naturally surged and flourished.

He felt a headache secretly, wondering why Chu Yunyun did not discuss it with him first?

Isn’t this title too domineering? It doesn’t align with his strategy of maintaining a low profile while amassing strength.

After all, this is not martial arts fame, which could directly enhance his combat power.

At least, Chu Yunyun knew the limits and didn’t directly crown him a king.

Chu Xisheng had to think of ways to control his surging Dragon Energy while cultivating.

This was an unforeseen situation; his Dragon Energy surged uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the Scripture Pavilion of the Formless Divine Sect encompassed all knowledge. In the eighth layer of the Scripture Pavilion, there were still plenty of royal martial arts preserved.

Chu Xisheng took time to search inside for an hour and eventually retrieved the ’Emperor’s Sword’ and ’Xuan Emperor Armor.’

The former can endow the power of royal Dragon Energy onto the sword, essentially gathering the will of tens of thousands of troops and civilians to attack the enemy, extremely domineering. It also included a set of twenty-four sword moves, reputedly with Yanxi Stone City as the blade, Qi Dai as the edge, Jin Wei as the spine, Zhou Song as the ridge, Han Wei as the guard, boasting immense power.

But since Chu Xisheng doesn’t use swords, he can only modify it to practice the ’Emperor’s Blade.’

He also disregarded those twenty-four Emperor’s Sword moves, feeling that despite their power, they weren’t as practical as his own Sword Skill.

The ’Xuan Emperor Armor’ is also a similar royal Secret Technique, which condenses royal Dragon Energy into armor, relatively simple to use.

These two Secret Techniques both originated from the Primordial Emperor Xuanhuang and are true Primordial Emperor legacies.

Chu Xisheng estimated that once he mastered these two Secret Techniques, his exuberant Dragon Energy would have a place, avoiding the daily spectacle of twelve golden dragons and a Luck Gold Pillar attracting attention like a monkey being watched.

However, Wang Baimei, the Grand Elder of the Scripture Pavilion, didn’t endorse this.

He shook his head: "These are just symptomatic treatments, not addressing the root cause. The best way is for you to create a formation to seal and store Dragon Energy on your own. Otherwise, the daily consumption of Dragon Energy is not a solution."

Chu Xisheng sighed at those words, contemplating that being able to create a large formation would indeed be best.

He could borrow from Emperor Jianyuan or Ji Yang, yet neither place could be used to store Dragon Energy.

The problem is that creating a formation capable of sealing and storing Qi Fortune requires consuming countless wealth and resources.

Even at the lowest standard, Chu Xisheng couldn’t afford it.

For now, he’ll have to rely on the ’Emperor’s Blade’ and ’Xuan Emperor Armor’, and figure out a solution later.

The Dragon Energy originating from the Northern Four Provinces, even when wasted daily, is better than being drained by Emperor Jianyuan.

As Chu Xisheng returned to the Golden Summit, practicing Primordial Skill while condensing his Emperor’s Blade and Xuan Emperor Armor, he received a letter token.

Upon reading the contents of the letter, Chu Xisheng’s expression gradually grew serious.

This was information from the Tianji Pavilion regarding the ’Heavenly Gaze.’

Months ago, he promised Ji Yang, the daughter of the Drought, to look into the missing Poison Pearls.

Chu Xisheng had always been attentive to this matter, willing to invest heavily, hiring several of the best intelligence agencies in the world to investigate for him, but there had been no leads.

Just two days ago, however, the Tianji Pavilion discovered the whereabouts of the ’Heavenly Gaze’, and the location was in ’Iron State’ to the west of ’You State’, near the Iron Wall Mountain Range, merely over ten thousand miles away.

Chu Xisheng pondered whether this was a trap.

Yet he decided to go and see for himself.

His recent journey to the ’Taiwei Constellation’ immensely enhanced his martial power and survival capabilities.

Chu Xisheng was now fully confident of withdrawing unharmed in any situation.
