Chapter 128: Under One Person, Above Ten Thousand People
Chapter 128: Under One Person, Above Ten Thousand People
If Jiang Ziya was traveling around the King's Continent now, they really would have no way to deal with it and could only wait for him to come and find them.
"I see......"
Compared with the worries about physics, Zhang Liang seemed much calmer.
There had been no news about Jiang Ziya, and he had already had this guess in his mind.
After all, Jiang Ziya is an ancient priest. If he hides and doesn't meet them, they will have no way to deal with him.
As for why there was no news about Jiang Ziya for two years, he had no idea.
Maybe his master is planning some big plan, and it is not appropriate for him to show up at this time.
After chatting with Wu Zetian for a while, Zhang Liang and Yu Ji got up and left.
Since Wu Zetian said that Jiang Mingche was the common ruler of the world that she had been looking for, he planned to visit the regent now.
"Wan'er, please send my junior brothers and sisters off for me..."
After leaving the Daming Palace, Zhang Liang and Yu Ji walked through Zhuque Street and headed towards the Honglu Temple.
"Brother, could the regent that Senior Sister mentioned be the common ruler of the world that we are looking for?"
On the way to the Honglu Temple, Yu Ji turned her head to look at Zhang Liang and asked curiously.
"I need to meet the Regent to know this. I can't speculate now..."
Zhang Liang shook his head and said.
Before meeting Jiang Mingche, everything you say is empty talk.
After arriving at the Honglu Temple, Zhang Liang and Yu Ji, led by a maid, went directly to the main hall responsible for entertaining guests from various countries, where they met Jiang Mingche.
It was now dusk and the sky was about to get dark. Jiang Mingche was arranging the maids to prepare dinner.
"Zhang Liang..."
"Yu Ji..."
"Meet the Regent..."
After meeting Jiang Mingche in person, Zhang Liang and Yu Ji bowed and saluted, observing the proper etiquette.
Wu Zetian was their senior sister and could be exempted from these complicated formalities, but Jiang Mingche was different.
After all, the other party is the regent of the Tang Dynasty, and has nothing to do with the two of them.
"Zhang Liang, Yu Ji?"
After hearing what the two said, Jiang Mingche turned his head with some curiosity.
What came into view was a man holding a book and a woman wearing a dark green dress.
The man has delicate features and short hair.
The woman had an absolutely beautiful face, and her heroic eyes were particularly charming. Her skin was whiter than snow, and her lips were red and her teeth were white.
The long skirt was split at Yu Ji's calves, revealing her smooth and white calves, which was very eye-catching.
"You are a guest, there is no need to be so polite, please take your seat..."
Jiang Mingche said with a faint smile, feeling a little surprised.
He didn't expect that these two people would rush over from the big river basin so quickly.
"Thank you, Regent..."
Zhang Liang thanked them and sat down with Yu Ji at the two tables next to them.
"Come here, serve the wine."
Jiang Mingche called out, and soon several maids came with fine wine, delicacies, and various fruits and placed them in front of the two people's tables.
"Everyone is a guest, so you two don't have to be polite. Just treat this place as your home..."
"I still have some chores to attend to, so I'll leave you alone for now..."
"Your Majesty, please..."
After exchanging pleasantries with Zhang Liang and Yu Ji, Jiang Mingche turned around and went to take care of other things.
He still had a lot of things to do before the guests from various countries arrived.
"I didn't expect this guy to be so young..."
Looking at Jiang Mingche's departing back, Yu Ji muttered something.
The Regent holds supreme power, and Yu Ji thought that Jiang Mingche was at least a middle-aged man over 40 years old.
I didn't expect this guy to be so young. He looks not much different from her.
At such a young age, he has reached the highest position among the officials, second only to the emperor and above everyone else?
If he had not done anything to change the destiny of the Tang Dynasty, then the other party must have a close relationship with his senior sister, the female emperor.
"Brother, is this Jiang Mingche the person we are looking for?"
Turning her head to look at Zhang Liang who was sitting next to her, Yu Ji blinked and asked curiously.
"The body and the clothes basically match..."
"I just wonder if this regent has the ability to make a river flow backwards with one sword..."
Zhang Liang said thoughtfully.
He couldn't make any comments before seeing Jiang Mingche take action.
Nightfall, Honglu Temple.
The dinner to welcome guests from various countries is in full swing.
Zhuge Liang, Sun Ce, and Sun Shangxiang in Three Kingdoms...
Nakolu from Fuso, Dongfang Jing from Xuanyong Qin, Zhang Liang and Yu Ji from the Dahe Basin, etc.
As the glasses clinked, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Everyone kept toasting Jiang Mingche to express their goodwill, and Jiang Mingche accepted all the toasts.
After a round of drinking, it was almost curfew.
After asking the servants of the Honglu Temple to send the guests from various countries to their respective lounges, Jiang Mingche shook his dizzy head and used his internal strength to dissipate some of the effects of the alcohol.
"System, check my property panel..."
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Mingche started communicating with the system in his mind.
Host: Jiang Mingche
Martial Arts Strength: Diamond II Magical Strength: Diamond I
Skills: Blue Dragon Sword Technique, Shushan Sword Controlling Technique, Dragon Roar Spear Technique, Fiery Flame
Weapons: Nameless Sword, Jinghong Sword Points: 199
Bloodline: Bloodline of the Ancient Wind God, Supreme Primordial Zhurong Bloodline Magic Talent: Purple Thunder, Flame Tribulation, Wind Sweeping the Clouds "It's time to improve my own strength..."
Looking at his attribute panel, Jiang Mingche fell into deep thought.
The last time he signed in at Wei City, he gained thirty years of inner strength, which directly brought his martial arts and magic skills to the Diamond II level.
After leaving Wei capital and returning to Chang'an City, he had been indulging in pleasure and romance for a long time, and had neglected his own cultivation.
The day after tomorrow night is the day when the International Lantern Festival begins. If nothing unexpected happens, that crazy woman Haiyue will probably come and cause trouble.
Although he is absolutely confident in his own strength, the Yunzhongdie in Haiyue's hand should not be underestimated.
The Butterfly in the Clouds is a divine creature that has existed since the beginning of the world, and possesses the powerful ability to create illusions.
Moreover, he was not sure how much strength this crazy woman had recovered.
Just in case, he had to improve his cultivation again before the International Lantern Festival began.
Without the help of the system, it would have been impossible for Jiang Mingche to achieve this in such a short period of time.
But now he has a small world with him, Xuantian Realm.
As the Heavenly Dao of Xuantian Realm, he can freely control the flow of time in Xuantian Realm.
The time flow rate in Xuantian Realm is controlled to 1:1000. Three years in Xuantian Realm is equivalent to one day in the outside world.
And with his current Diamond II strength, this is the best he can do.
After making up his mind, Jiang Mingche no longer hesitated and disappeared from the spot in a flash.
In Xuantian Realm, Jiang Mingche’s figure appeared in this space.
When Xuantian Realm was taken into the Babel Tower of Jixia Academy, he was only at the Diamond III level.
Later, after leaving Xuantian Realm and arriving in Wei Capital, his strength broke through to the Diamond 2 level.
As his cultivation level continued to improve, the space of Xuantian Realm also continued to expand.
It expanded from only tens of thousands of square kilometers at the beginning to hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.
By the time he breaks through to the Star Glory realm, the space of the Xuantian Realm should be able to break through to one million square kilometers.
Jiang Mingche slowly came to the bank of a large river that ran through the Xuantian Realm.
The river runs east to west, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles, and the water is crystal clear.
Standing by the river, Jiang Mingche could see his own reflection clearly.
With a thought, the Xuantian Realm directly changed from day to night, and countless stars dotted the night sky.
Jiang Mingche sat cross-legged on the grass, removed the first shackles of Zhurong's bloodline, and began to practice meditation.
Because he has not broken through to the Star Glory Realm, Jiang Mingche is still unable to completely practice fasting.
Eat something when you are hungry, drink some water when you are thirsty, and use the rest of the time to practice.
With the blessing of Zhurong's bloodline, Jiang Mingche's cultivation speed is incredibly fast.
One day of practice is equivalent to half a month of practice for others.
This is only the effect of unlocking the first bloodline shackles.
It is simply unimaginable what it would be like if all nine bloodline shackles were released.
There are no other living creatures in the Xuantian Realm. Apart from the sound of gurgling water and the faint sound of wind, there are no other noises, and Jiang Mingche will not be disturbed.
It was a rare opportunity to calm down and practice, and Jiang Mingche enjoyed the process very much.
He was so absorbed in his cultivation that he lost track of time. The sky of the Xuantian Realm was always kept in darkness by him, so Jiang Mingche had no concept of time.
No one knew how much time had passed before Jiang Mingche opened his eyes again, with a golden light flashing in his eyes.
"The realm of Diamond I..."
Looking within himself, he found that both his martial arts and magic skills had reached Diamond I level, which made him much stronger than before.
After getting up from the grass, Jiang Mingche felt the surging power in his body.
With a thought, the Jinghong Sword appeared directly in his hand.
Jiang Mingche walked slowly to the bank of the river and swung out a sword.
The sword energy pierced through the river, causing huge waves hundreds of meters high.
The river, which stretched for tens of thousands of miles, began to flow backwards, and the surging waves beat against the shore.
Jiang Mingche stood with his hands behind his back, quietly observing the river flowing against the current.
Although he could do this before his cultivation level broke through, it would consume a huge amount of physical strength and the power of the laws of magic.
After his cultivation breakthrough, he could possess this incredible power with just a casual sword strike, and he could feel the difference more intuitively.
At this point, his understanding of Shushan sword-wielding skills became even more thorough.
Although he still cannot fully unleash the power of Shushan Sword Controlling Technique, he is many times stronger than his previous self.
Now he is not afraid of this woman Haiyue at all.
Jiang Mingche even hoped that this woman would come over to duel with him so that he could better verify how strong he was now.
