Chapter 451: Chapter 399: Pei Xuanjing’s Plans, Military City

After making his decision, Pei Xuanjing did not delay any further.

He contacted siblings Xue Hanyi and brought them with him outside the border to the army camp.

According to Tao Rong, during the years Xue Hanyi and his sibling secluded themselves, they lived peacefully without causing any trouble. It was even Xue Hanyi who actively proposed the speculation that the wolf pack the army encountered may be from the Demon Race.

Pei Xuanjing had interacted with the two before his seclusion. Apart from their initial condescending attitude, Xue Hanyi hadn’t really done anything bad. Of course, there could also be the fact that they were deterred by Pei Xuanjing’s strength.

Anyway, based on Pei Xuanjing’s observation over these years, at least they had the sense of current affairs. They weren’t the straight-laced kind who wouldn’t cooperate or adapt. This led Pei Xuanjing to decide to not take action against them for the time being.

“As Heaven and Earth revive, the limits that this world can hold for the strong will continue to rise. It’s already a foregone conclusion that the ancient forces and strong entities that had left will return. This is inevitable and no one can stop it.”

This was Pei Xuanjing’s response when Xue Hanyi’s siblings prodded him.

There’s nothing wrong with this statement. With the revival of Heaven and Earth, the return of ancient forces is inevitable. No one can stop it, not even Pei Xuanjing, unless he can become Immortal before their return; otherwise, everything is just wishful thinking.

However, even with the assistance of the simulator, Pei Xuanjing wasn’t that confident. Let alone Becoming Immortal, he wasn’t even sure about the speed of the revival of Heaven and Earth, nor did he know what Realm his strength could reach when that day arrived.

What Pei Xuanjing wanted to do was not to hinder those people from returning, but to seize the time and use all means to enhance his own strength. To ensure that he and the people and forces behind him had sufficient self-protection abilities to wield enough voice in the coming Great World, and not become the vassal of others.

“Given my current strength, I am already qualified to contend with all those ancient forces. But it’s still too weak,” thought Pei Xuanjing.

With his current strength—where his Dao of Qi Refining stepped into the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm, Body Refining reached Spirit Realm Sixth Level, and Refining Spirit stepped into the second level—could already dominate a territory in Tianhuang Realm.

However, Pei Xuanjing was not satisfied with this. He craved a voice of his own, not to dominate over those people, but at least to have the qualifications to stand on an equal footing.

At present, this upcoming Divine Dynasty Plan was an opportunity for Pei Xuanjing.

If the Divine Dynasty Plan was successful, it would provide Pei Xuanjing with an opportunity to enhance his strength.

According to his division, if the Dao of Refining Spirit can truly result in Becoming Immortal, it can be divided into two Daos: Ghost Immortal and Immortal. If he could grasp some heavenly authority before those people by taking advantage of the Enfeoffment of the Divine Dynasty Plan, it should greatly benefit the Dao of Refining Spirit.

“Although I’m not 100% certain, this is an opportunity I cannot afford to miss,” thought Pei Xuanjing.

After all, the amount of Taoyun required for a life simulation is now too high. The Divine Dynasty Plan could quickly enhance his strength in addition to accumulating Taoyun.

Outside the border, in the Ming army camp.

The camp, after nearly three years of warfare, was likely more than just a camp. The Great Ming Dynasty had transformed it into a war fortress, perhaps more appropriately named as a military city.

Apart from the millions of soldiers of the imperial court, the rest were martial artists from all over the world.

Heaven and Earth are fair and do not favor any race.

After the revival of Heaven and Earth, the richness of the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi made it easier for human race martial artists to cultivate and breakthrough realms.

However, the benefits weren’t only for the human race. With the growth of countless Lingzhen medicinal herbs, the emergence of Blessed Lands and Forbidden Places, the once ignorant animals also began to gradually develop some spirituality, giving birth to considerable wisdom.

Inside the territory of Great Ming, it seemed that many animals in the mountains had gained spiritual intelligence, beginning to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon to refine their bodies.

Originally, these signs were very slow. Yet, unfortunately, the arrival of the Demon Race accelerated this process, at least speeding up the development of spirituality in the animals bordering the territories.

Animals that were once ignorant, with the help of the Demon Race, a lot of them gained wisdom, learned to cultivate, and absorbed the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. They were fiercer and stronger than before.

However, every advantage has its disadvantage. When they started killing these cultivating animals, now called demonic beasts, and discovered that their bodies could be used for cultivation, they immediately attracted countless martial artists.

After all, with the spread of Martial Classics, many people who originally had no chance to cultivate now had the opportunity to start their path as martial artists. As more fighters break through the ranks, the resources needed are also increasing, which amplifies the conflicts on the rivers and lakes, many times more than before.

Even with the revival of Heaven and Earth and the increase in spiritual energy, the growth of numerous exotic treasures, the appearance of Blessed Lands and Forbidden Places, they still could not bridge this huge gap, making the conflict even more crazy.

And now, when it was discovered that the bodies of these demonic beasts could be used for Pill Refining and Body Refining, it drove countless martial artists into a frenzy. They swarmed in and voluntarily joined this place to hunt demonic beasts.

“Commander, my master has come out of seclusion and will probably arrive in a few days after hearing the news here,” Pang Hong respectfully told Wang Boan, who was dressed in a Confucian robe and holding a book in his hand.

Since hearing the news about the demonic beasts, Pang Hong had willingly come here. He wanted to fight the demonic beasts on this battlefield to enhance himself. After two years of fighting and honing, he had gained a lot, and shortly before that, he managed to achieve the third blood rebirth, stepping into the First-grade Mortal Realm, the final step for a mortal martial artist.

Even though Heaven and Earth had revived nearly fourteen years ago and many martial artists have broken through, strong individuals who had entered the Spirit Realm were emerging as if bamboo shoots in spring rain. However, First-grade martial artists were still the backbone of the world today.

For Pang Hong to reach this point at his current age was due to his efforts and luck, in addition to Pei Xuanjing and the Shenxiao Sect’s support. After all, although many Forbidden Places and Blessed Lands appeared with numerous heirs, there were not many people who could really inherit.

However, even with his current status, Pang Hong didn’t dare show any disrespect towards the commander of the millions of soldiers of the Great Ming, standing in front of him.

Not just because he was his master’s friend, but also because of his strength.
