The wonderland of Xuewu.
This is a secret place run by the Sima clan, the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty.
It is located in the snowy plains of the far north, but is completely isolated from the territory of the snowfield barbarians. It is a wonderful place surrounded by mountains.
It is covered with snow all year round, and the mountains and rivers are radiant with light, like a vast white world of glass.
Countless exotic snow phoenix trees stand in the snowfield. The snow-white snow phoenix trees are dazzling and clean, with an astonishing whiteness. They exude a strange fragrance, attracting countless white sparrows shaped like phoenixes to build their nests on them.
Exquisite and small pavilions are dotted in the snowy sycamore forest, and paths paved with white jade boards run through them. Many maids wearing furs chuckle and walk cautiously on the paths.
Next to a small lake covered by thin ice, in a pavilion facing the water, Sima Wuyou was leaning on a soft couch, holding a small wine bottle in his left hand, and gently slapping his thigh with his right hand, following the singer in the small pavilion in the center of the lake. , singing softly the most popular ditty in Anyang City, Jin Dynasty more than ten years ago.
The former veteran of the Jin army and vaguely known as the most powerful general of the Jin Dynasty, the First Army sat next to Sima Wuyou, clasping his hands together and rubbing them vigorously. His big hands were as red as red-hot copper ingots, and thousands of sparks constantly burst out when rubbed.
"Old Jun, what's the matter? Did the old wife at home overturn the grape trellis again?" Sima Wuyou smiled and took a sip of wine, pointed at the First Army and laughed: "Tsk, in my opinion, your fierce wife , why don’t you get divorced? With your Lao Jun’s wealth and status, how many young ladies are waiting to throw you into your arms?”
The thin old face of the First Army officer suddenly turned red. He smiled dryly and said: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of me... It's nothing... eh."
Sima Wuyou sat up straight, placed the wine bottle on the small table beside him, and looked at the First Army with a smile: "So, are you worried?"
The First Army was silent for a while, and then nodded slowly. He pointed to the vast white wonderland of Xuewu outside, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although this place is good, it is not my hometown... The generals in the army feel homesick. Love; the many generals who followed Your Majesty here, they also miss Anyang City."
Sima Wuyou gently stroked the huge white bear skin under his body with his fingers.
After a long time, he sighed quietly: "Yes, accidentally, so much time has passed... I still remember that I was 'Huo Xiong'... Oh, no, his real name is Wu Tie, and that boy Wu Tie has a conscience. , help you fake your death and escape."
The First Army lowered his head, with a hint of shame and a hint of anger, and said in a low voice: "I am incompetent."
Sima Wuyou waved his hand and said calmly: "It's not that you are incompetent, but I also... did it intentionally. Linghu Qingqing was so powerful at that time, how could you, a group of hard-nosed people, defeat him? Not to mention, Gong Yang. Don't worry about that old man, who is just adding fuel to the flames."
With a cold snort, Sima Wuyou closed his eyes and nodded gently.
Sighing, Sima Wuyou said calmly: "Information from over there comes in every day... You all know what Anyang City and the Great Jin Divine Kingdom look like at this time... This is all Still can’t let go?”
The First Army suddenly raised its head and shouted sternly: "Your Majesty, the Sui Dynasty is indeed strong, but... That Anyang City was built by our ancestors; that Great Jin Kingdom was defeated by our ancestors The Great Jin Divine Kingdom; those people are also the people we have sworn to protect!"
The First Army stood up, a violent aura burst out from their skinny, short bodies, and the heavy snow falling from the sky suddenly solidified.
The wind and snow covering tens of thousands of miles in radius were completely frozen in the void because of the sudden burst of aura from the First Army.
Every trace of dust is frozen in the void, motionless.
In the wonderland of Xuewu, countless maids, countless eunuchs, countless sergeants of the Jin Dynasty who came here following Sima Wuyou, the First Army and others, as well as their family members who secretly brought them here, all froze in place, watching subconsciously. In the direction of the waterside pavilion.
Sima Wuyou lowered his head and squinted at the small red clay charcoal stove at his feet.
After a while, Sima Wuyou said slowly: "With this "Nine Refined Dragon Demonic Body", Old Jun, you have gained some proficiency... But, do you think you can be one of those 'gods' in the Sui Dynasty?" His opponent?"
The First Army said in a deep voice: "My lord, I will definitely be able to kill him!"
Sima Wuyou lay on the soft couch again, and he said slowly: "Then, where is their so-called 'King God'?"
The entire body of the First Army turned into a strange ink-gold color, and the whole body was black. A layer of golden light swirled deeply on the surface. The whole person felt so violent and powerful, but also ferocious and evil.
"I will spare my life..." The First Army gritted his teeth and said his answer.
"Then, your sons, grandsons, the brats of other major generals, and those army lieutenants... can they be opponents of the Sui Dynasty Forbidden Army?" Sima Wuyou sat up straight again and picked up the small The purple and gold fire tongs beside the stove turned over the coals in the stove.
Large sparks exploded from the stove, and the temperature in the waterside pavilion rose a little.
"The heat has not come yet." Sima Wuyou looked at the First Army coldly: "When will our soldiers have the combat power of the Sui Dynasty Forbidden Army, have the ordnance and equipment that can rival them, and have the ability to fight against them?" The method of using the Fire Formation... Let’s talk about regaining our homeland again.”
The fire tongs in Sima Wuyou's hand gently tapped the small stove, squinted at the charcoal fire, and murmured in a low voice: "I must not take risks... You must know that this was back then, when Sheng'er and his wife fought with their lives. Opportunities in exchange.”
The First Army suddenly stopped talking.
He knows about it.
More than 6,000 years ago, the East Palace of the Jin Dynasty underwent drastic changes. Prince Sima Sheng of the East Palace led his subordinates to defect. The vitality of the Jin Dynasty was greatly damaged. The strength of the royal family plummeted. In the end, power fell away. The government was almost completely dominated by Linghu Qingqing and Gong Yang San. Consider control.
Only Sima Wuyou's die-hard confidants like the First Army knew what Sima Sheng and Xiyao had done.
Their sacrifices were undoubtedly heavy, but worth it.
Not to mention Sima Sheng, Xiyao could have survived, but she chose an extremely tragic and decisive sacrifice... She sacrificed the innate spiritual energy of her twin daughters to steal the secrets from the soul space of the Wa tribe.
Just like the "Nine Refined Dragon Demonic Body" secretly cultivated by the First Army, this is something that should not appear in the Three Kingdoms Continent at all.
In fact, the First Army knew what the "Tian Zi Jia No. 1 Hunting Ground" was earlier than Wu Tie... "Nine Refining Dragon Demonic Body", this secret magic technique that is almost comparable to "Nine Transformations Xuan Gong", brave and diligent, The power is astonishing, and it shouldn't appear in the 'Tianzijia No. 1 Hunting Ground' at all.
For these things, the sisters White Ibis and Crested Ibis delayed their birth for six thousand years.
For these things, Sima Wuyou simply and Sima Xian and his son became a pair of peerless fools.
For these things, when Linghu Qingqing expressed his intention to usurp the throne, Sima Wuyou, Sima Xian and his son just pretended to create some trouble for him, gave him a little nausea, and left cleanly.
Everyone in the world thought that the Kingdom of Jin Dynasty was over.
Everyone in the world thought that the Sima family had completely disappeared.
Even Wu Tie thought that Sima Wuyou and others were just hanging on for dear life.
Who would have thought that in this wonderful realm of Xuewu, in just a few years, the Sima clan of the Great Jin Divine Kingdom would be recuperating and their strength would continue to expand.
What's more, Baiying's Baiying Chamber of Commerce has made huge profits and countless cultivation resources directly through Wu Tie. Most of these resources have gone into the belly of the First Army and others, becoming the basis for their rapid advancement in cultivation. .
The First Army and the generals following Sima Wuyou were ready to make a move.
But Sima Wuyou shook his head gently, and he firmly tapped the small stove with a small poker, and said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, wait a minute... Sheng'er, and my wife there, they are all good children. They have sacrificed too much for Da Jin and the Sima clan."
"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer... We can't afford the loss."
Sima Wuyou raised his head, looked at the sky, and murmured: "It's not just Sui Chao, what we have to face is not just Sui Chao..."
"Back then, Sheng'er said that he wanted to see what was in the sky."
"Stop talking about the crested ibis, this girl... is satisfied as long as she has enough to eat and drink, which is good."
"That girl Bai Yao, like her parents, is looking forward to jumping to the sky... Haha, what's the mystery above the sky... I have been pretending to be confused for so many years, but I also want to live a more understanding life."
"Old Jun, this world is like a chessboard. We were all chess pieces."
"You can't help yourself, your life hangs in the hands of others."
"Now, we have finally jumped out of the chessboard, which is already extremely lucky... But we are not qualified to be chess players yet, and we are far from being qualified to be chess players."
"We can't do it, and the God Emperor of the Sui Dynasty can't do it... He is just a relatively powerful chess piece."
"Even the so-called great mistresses of the Wa tribe, they...may not be chess players. They just follow the rules set by the chess players and move around on the chessboard. It looks like a beautiful scenery, but in fact they can't help it. .”
"It's terrifying, Old Jun... I don't want to know, the more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes."
"So, if we endure it a little longer, we can easily get out of the chessboard, but we must not lose all the power we have in our hands at once."
Sima Wuyou swallowed hard, grabbed the small wine bottle, and took two gulps of wine.
"Sima Wuyou... bring the mountain and river seal." A sinister voice sounded in the distance, and then, faint exclamations, the sound of sharp weapons breaking through the air, and faint waves of mana were heard.
With a 'swish', Xi Yao, whose whole body was shrouded in a faint layer of black air, appeared out of thin air at the entrance of the waterside pavilion.
Behind him, dozens of heavily armored Jin generals moved over angrily. Each of them held heavy soldiers and looked at Xi Yao with gritted teeth.
Xi Yao marched all the way and barbarically broke into the waterside pavilion where Sima Wuyou was. The Jin soldiers along the way chased and intercepted him, but no one could hurt Xi Yao in the slightest. They could only watch him helplessly, like a ghost shadow. rushed in.
"That's all, my family." Sima Wuyou shook his sleeves, and a group of extremely shy and angry Jin generals immediately retreated in annoyance.
"Give me the mountain and river seal." Xi Yao was not polite. He sat directly on the chair opposite Sima Wuyou and stretched out his hand towards Sima Wuyou.
"The Seal of Mountains and Rivers is the true lifeblood of our country in the Jin Dynasty." Sima Wuyou squinted at Xi Yao and said softly, "Why should I give it to you?"
The joints of the First Army were all crackling. Under the dark golden skin, pieces of dragon scales entangled with countless lines could be faintly seen emerging. A terrible evil aura shrouded Xi Yao's body directly: " Xi Yao, speak more respectfully to His Majesty... You are just a relative, if you dare to be rude, I will kill you now."
Xi Yao glanced sideways at the First Army: "How about the foreign relatives? The foreign relatives are also relatives, so they are better than an old dog."
The eyes of the First Army turned red instantly.
Sima Wuyou waved his hand and said calmly: "Old soldiers are like old men, and close friends are also... Xi Yao, you have said it. As a junior, you should know etiquette and observe etiquette. Acting too arrogantly and absurdly will lead to death. way."
Pointing at Xi Yao who was filled with black energy, Sima Wuyou said in a deep voice: "I see that the evil energy in your body is infiltrated into your bones. I am afraid you are possessed by a demon... Beneath the Xuewu Wonderland, there is a Qingliang Cave where hundreds of millions of years of frost elites have gathered. What is your best choice?" It’s good to go into meditation and retreat and quench your inner demons.”
Xi Yao sneered and said in a deep voice: "I know my own affairs well... You guys, if you don't have this knowledge, don't understand."
Raising his head, Xi Yao said coldly: "Inner demon? Haha, there is indeed an invasion of external demons, but I have used the power of the Wa Clan Supreme Leader to completely transform it into my own cultivation. So, you all saw it wrong. "
"I am extremely awake now."
"Give me the Mountain and River Seal, and I will use the Mountain and River Formation of the Jin Dynasty to suppress the Sui Dynasty soldiers and horses, divide my demonic thoughts into demons, invade their souls, and turn them into my puppets."
"In this way, the homeland of the Jin Dynasty can be recovered, and I can be considered worthy of Xiyao and my two nieces."
Xi Yao giggled, his whole body filled with black energy, and his eyes were filled with blood. He was really like a supreme demon descending into the world. His overwhelming evil thoughts and malice made Sima Wuyou and the First Army tremble. A cold war.
Sima Wuyou looked at Xi Yao blankly: "Do you have any way to fight against the Suihuo Formation?"
Xi Yao raised his brows and laughed: "Old guy, you are indeed old-hearted. Are you still here waiting for an opportunity?"
"However, you can't wait for an opportunity, you have to do it!"
With his hands on his knees, his elbows turned out, and his body slightly tilted forward, Xi Yao looked at Sima Wuyou fiercely like an old vulture posing for a kill: "I am going to give my two nieces a chance. Come out... Old guy, I don’t ask you to send out any manpower, as long as you use the Mountain and River Seal with me."
"Are you going to do it or not?"
