Chapter 379: Son of Destiny
Yu Dayou and his men believed that as long as they could attack Huanglong directly, capture the capital, and arrest the current emperor, the world would be within their grasp.
Chen Jiu also thought so.
Who would have thought that after they had captured the capital and arrested Jiajing, they sent troops to Hejian and Jinan prefectures in an attempt to open up a land route from Jiuling Mountain to the capital, but they encountered frantic resistance from the wealthy families along the way!
These guys were really like crazy, they knew clearly that they were no match for the soldiers of the Eight Camps, they knew clearly that the army of King Nine Mountains had the terrifying Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, they knew clearly that they could not resist, but they still tried their best to resist frantically.
As a result, it took them more than two months just to capture Hejian Prefecture and Jinan Prefecture.
This is not because they are not strong enough to crush these aristocratic families, but mainly because the people of these aristocratic families are too crazy. Even if they are mortals, even if they have no spiritual roots and no way to cultivate to open their minds, they will try their best to create troubles for the army of the Eight Camps. Those earthly immortals and true gods are even more like ghosts, appearing and disappearing at will. It will take several days to catch one of them.
There was no way. The other party was too familiar with the territory that they had managed for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years. As soon as the soldiers of the Eight Battalions rushed into their territory, there were traps everywhere and sneak attacks everywhere. If not for the fact that everyone of them had immortal armor and immortal weapons, there would definitely be heavy casualties.
When Chen Jiu received the news, he was also very troubled.
He finally understood why there was no true god, no earthly immortal, and even no one who practiced Taoism in the capital.
Jiajing must have released them, and he also used some words to trick them into resisting desperately.
What should I do?
He couldn't send out a large number of true gods to catch and kill them all, because these guys deliberately hid among ordinary people to fight them. The people still supported them. He couldn't ignore the ordinary people and kill them indiscriminately just to deal with the people from the wealthy families.
Fortunately, the strength of the aristocratic families is nothing compared to them. Even if they try their best and think of every possible way, it is difficult to cause casualties to the soldiers of the Eight Battalions. They will just waste a little more time, and the problem is not big.
Chen Jiu was too lazy to care about it. He was busy enlightening the earth immortals and demon immortals in Jiuling Mountain every day, and then followed his mother to train the fox clan.
He really didn't bother to care about worldly affairs. Anyway, the capital had been taken over, and Jiaona's elder brother Bai Dong was there to help set up the court and manage daily affairs. The soldiers of the eight battalions were also led by his eight disciples. It was only a matter of time before the whole world was taken over. He didn't have to worry about it at all.
That morning, he had just finished initiating the earth immortals and was preparing to go to Qingqiu Palace to accompany his mother to train the fox clan, but suddenly several little girls rushed over and surrounded him!
To be honest, he was a little dumbfounded because he didn't know any of these girls.
However, they seemed to look a bit like those fairies, so he didn't dare to touch them.
He was in a daze when a little girl who looked a bit like Zhang Wanxia couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "Hahahaha, Ah Jiu, guess who I am?"
Another little girl who looked a bit like Yunxiao Tianzun also laughed: "Hahahaha, you can't guess, right, Jiu?"
Uh, this, wait, wood spirit, tree demon, one, two, three, four, five, six!
Chen Jiu finally understood.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Lao Tao, you guys still like to play this?"
The old peach tree pretended to be stern and said, "What do you mean Old Peach? You are the ninth one. I have a name now. My name is Tao Xiangxiang."
Peach fragrance?
Was this named by Fairy Hibiscus?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask curiously: " What are your names?"
Da Tao immediately jumped over and said, "My name is Tao Tiantian."
Er Tao jumped over and said, "My name is Tao Meimei."
Dali also jumped over and said, "My name is Li Huahua."
Erli finally jumped over and said, "My name is Li Duoduo."
My God, this name really makes me speechless.
Oh, and there's another one?
Chen Jiu said to the shy Tiancan Shudu: "Xiaotian, what name did Furong give you?"
The silkworm tree said shyly, "My name is Tao Tianli."
Okay, that name sounds okay.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
The old peach tree couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hahahaha, we've finally transformed. We can finally eat the elixir and practice. Come on, bring the elixir here."
Upon hearing this, the other tree fairies also rushed to stretch out their hands.
Well, these tree monsters have been with him for the longest time, and have made many contributions, so they have to be given the elixir.
At this moment, he was not short of elixirs, so he simply took out 600 bottles of wood-type elixirs and said generously: "One hundred bottles per person, you should first practice the wood-type skills to the peak of earthly immortality, and then I will help you become gods."
The old peach tree and the others were like little girls, jumping and cheering while holding the elixir.
The old peach tree jumped for a while, and suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, right, Ah Jiu, the ancestor said she was going back. She said she had something to tell you, and asked you to go to Tianyi Country."
Oops, I forgot to accompany Master Qingmu.
This is so rude.
Chen Jiu hurriedly gathered Lao Taoshu and the other six into the Kingdom of God, flashed to the Hall of All Stars, and then whooshed into the Tianyi Kingdom.
At this moment, Patriarch Qingmu and Fairy Furong were leisurely sitting on the branch of a tree thousands of feet high, drinking tea. They also specially created a huge pavilion that could easily accommodate more than ten people.
Chen Jiu flashed into the pavilion and said awkwardly: "Old Ancestor, I'm really sorry. I've been too busy recently and haven't had time to come and see you."
Patriarch Qingmu smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I have Furong to accompany me, and I can also teach Xiaotao and the others how to transform. Life is quite comfortable now."
Fairy Furong couldn't help but ask, "Where are Sister Xiangxiang and the others?"
Chen Jiu quickly raised his hand and released the six little girls.
Fairy Hibiscus immediately joined them and started chattering.
It seems that this little fairy is quite close to these tree fairies .
Patriarch Qingmu smiled with satisfaction, and then asked: "Ajiu, what are you busy with recently? When are you free?"
this.
Chen Jiu sighed helplessly, "I am busy fighting for the world in the mortal world. Those aristocratic families are resisting desperately like crazy. And those princes and royal children are fighting desperately. I estimate that it will take several years to take over the world. Ancestor, is there anything you need my help with?"
Hearing this, Patriarch Qingmu murmured, "I don't have anything I need your help with. The reason why you are having so much trouble in seizing the world is probably because of the above."
After saying that, she even stretched out her hand and pointed to the sky.
above?
Chen Jiu suddenly realized, "Ancestor, are you talking about the Heavenly Palace?"
Patriarch Qingmu still murmured: "You can say yes, but you can also say no."
Chen Jiu said helplessly: "Ancestor, please stop playing dumb."
Patriarch Qingmu shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not guessing. I just roughly guessed what the reason was. I'm not very clear about the specifics."
ah?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Ancestor, you don't know clearly, who else knows clearly?"
The ancestor is the top existence in this world.
If they don’t know, who else would know?
Patriarch Qingmu said calmly: "This little Tianpeng and his friends should know more about it than I do. You can go ask them."
Can Yuyi Tianzun and the others know better than the ancestor?
Then you must ask carefully.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Ancestor, you must have something for me to do, right ? If you have anything for me to do, just tell me, I will definitely do it for you if I can."
Patriarch Qingmu smiled slightly and said, "It's not that I want you to do this, but I see that you seem to be quite good at cracking the Kingdom of God and managing the Kingdom of God, so I want to give you a suggestion."
You are amazing for taking the advice from our ancestors.
Chen Jiu hurriedly said: "What suggestions, ancestor, tell me, I will definitely consider it carefully."
Patriarch Qingmu said solemnly: "You should know that the Fusang sacred tree is connected to countless spaces. Since you cracked the entrance to the kingdom of God so quickly , you should also be able to crack the entrances to those spaces quickly. Those spaces may be a little dangerous, but it should not be a big deal for you. If you want to get more magical herbs or treasures, you can go and try."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but slap his forehead and said, "Oh, how could I have forgotten this? Thank you for reminding me, I will definitely try it as soon as possible."
He had to try it as soon as possible. If nothing else, he had to go to Takamaga-no-hara as soon as possible.
Patriarch Qingmu nodded slightly and said, "I'm glad you find this suggestion useful. It's getting late, so I'll go back first. Bring Furong to see me when you have time."
After saying that, she stood up and was about to leave.
It was difficult for Chen Jiu to keep her. After all, he was busy already. If he went to conquer the space connected to the Fusang sacred tree, he would be even busier and would have no time to accompany her.
Fairy Furong hurriedly stood up and hugged Patriarch Qingmu's arm, shaking him vigorously, "Master, why do you want to go back? Please play with me for a while longer."
Patriarch Qingmu stroked her head gently and said lovingly, "Furong, you are young and have plenty of time to play. Master is not young anymore and can't always play with you. Now you have Xiaotao and the others to accompany you, so you should have enough playmates. Master has to go back to practice and can't play with you anymore."
Well, if the ancestor doesn’t practice, his lifespan will be exhausted.
Fairy Hibiscus could only say helplessly: "Okay, Master, I will come to see you when I have time."
Patriarch Qingmu nodded slightly, and then disappeared in a flash.
Fairy Hibiscus sighed quietly, and suddenly said excitedly, "By the way, Jiu, take out some fruit for Sister Xiangxiang and the others to try. They haven't tasted the fruit from you yet."
Okay, that’s a piece of cake.
Chen Jiu immediately picked a large pile of fruits from the Kingdom of God and filled the large table in the middle of the pavilion.
Fairy Hibiscus immediately rushed over and chirped, "Xiangxiang, Tiantian, I tell you, this fruit is delicious, come on, try it."
This little girl is so naive. She was looking sad just now, but now she is smiling happily.
Seeing that the girls were having so much fun, Chen Jiu immediately waved his hand and said, "You guys go ahead and have fun. I have to go ask Master Peng."
After saying that, he just left.
He really wanted to know something that even Patriarch Qingmu didn't know.
Soon, he flashed to the front of Yuyi Tianzun who was practicing silently on an uninhabited hill.
Yuyi Tianzun opened his eyes and said solemnly: "Master Jiu, is there anything else you want to go to the God Realm for?"
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "I want to talk to you about the affairs of the mortal world. As you know, I am now fighting for the world of the mortal world. The problem is that I have captured the current emperor, and those aristocratic families, royal children, and even loyal ministers are still resisting desperately.
Patriarch Qingmu said, this has something to do with the higher-ups. What does it have to do with them? Did the gods in heaven make them fight against me so desperately? "
Upon hearing this, Yuyi Tianzun said solemnly, "This is indeed related to the upper world, but it is not the Heavenly Court."
Chen Jiu was surprised and asked: "If it's not the Heavenly Court, then is it the Hongmeng Sect?"
Yuyi Tianzun shook his head slightly and said, "You can say yes, but you can also say no."
Why do you all like playing charades?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but urge, "Uncle Peng, hurry up and stop playing dumb!"
this.
Yuyi Tianzun looked at the sky and said with gritted teeth: "Master Jiu, to tell you the truth, this can be said to be a taboo in this world. I am afraid that the higher-ups will be unhappy if I tell them."
Chen Jiu looked at the sky and asked in confusion: "Where is the top?"
Yuyi Tianzun thought for a moment and simply asked, "You should have heard of the Child of Destiny, right?"
The son of destiny is the emperor. I've heard Jiajing talk about it so much these days.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "I know, the son of destiny is to be the emperor."
Yuyi Tianzun said solemnly: "Yes, the Son of Destiny is the emperor, and the emperor's decrees are all in accordance with the will of heaven. In other words, they are the emperor recognized by heaven, and you are not, so those people will resist desperately."
Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask curiously: "We also need to get the recognition of heaven. What exactly is this heaven?"
Yuyi Tianzun said with some difficulty: "It's really hard to say. Otherwise, bring the Heavenly Tribulation Cloak to me and I will tell you."
Are you still afraid of being struck by lightning?
