"Your Majesty, I am willing. Even if it means giving up everything, I will build a top-notch navy for Dayi." Upon hearing this, Zhang Shun knelt on one knee without hesitation and agreed carefully.
Seeing these millions of soldiers in front of him, his heart was filled with enthusiasm. No general could refuse such soldiers, and no one would not want to be their commander. With these soldiers, a qualified navy could be formed quickly in the shortest possible time.
"Okay, I plan to establish a new legion, the Five Elements Legion, corresponding to the five elements. It is divided into the Sharp Gold Legion, the Flood Legion, the Giant Wood Legion, the Fiery Fire Legion, and the Thick Earth Legion. Zhang Shun, are you willing to form the Flood Legion and become its commander? Create a top navy for Dayi."
Yi Tianxing spoke after a brief pause.
"I am willing!!"
When Zhang Shun heard this, he was so excited that he agreed without thinking.
This was a great opportunity in front of him. How could he refuse such an opportunity? The navy was no different from others. It was the position that suited him best. He did not choose to take the imperial examination like Zhuge Liang and Gongshu Lin, because he asked himself that his ability was still a little insensitive to things like the Four Books and Five Classics. The army was no different from others. He had this talent, so he should take the responsibility.
No one can object to this choice.
"Zhang Shuntingfeng!!"
"I will be here in the end."
Zhang Shun agreed respectfully.
"Appoint Zhang Shun as the commander of the Flood Army. The army has 500,000 soldiers. He has various types of soldiers. He is granted the Five Elements Flood Army Talisman."
Yi Tianxing did not hesitate and immediately issued an imperial decree.
Directly separate the Flood Legion from the Five Elements Legion.
A military talisman with a raging flood on it appeared in mid-air. The talisman also split in the middle, half of it fell in front of Yi Tianxing, and the other half fell towards Zhang Shun.
"Zhang Shun thanks the king. I am willing to die for the king and for Dayi."
Zhang Shun bowed and took the half of the military token in his hand. What he held was a heavy responsibility. A 500,000-man army was a force he had never controlled before. As the head of the army, he represented the soldiers of the entire army, and all their futures were placed on him. At the same time, it also meant that the responsibility of establishing the navy of Dayi fell on his shoulders. Whether he could live up to this trust was something he had to work hard on in the future.
As the title was conferred, the Conferred God List appeared in front of Yi Tianxing. Zhang Shun's name naturally appeared on the list, and a wisp of his true spirit followed him into the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals. He gained the luck from himself, and suddenly, he saw that Zhang Shun's aura was increasing rapidly and surging. The scene was very shocking. In his body, he seemed to hear the waves surging, making a majestic sound of waves.
That aura seemed to be about to break through to the Life Map level at any time. Behind him, rolling river waves flashed, as if they would condense into a Life Map in the next moment. The Black Water Scripture he practiced seemed to be undergoing a transformation at any time at this moment.
Condensed into the core life map "Black Water True Dragon Map",
The life orifices in his body had long been opened up in the battlefield of gods and demons due to the creation of heaven and earth. Now that the life orifices were complete, he was very close to breaking through the life diagram realm. At this moment, he was infused with the luck of Dayi, and countless vitality of heaven and earth, iron-blooded murderous energy, continuously integrated into his body. It seemed that he would break through in the next moment.
Faintly, streams of water are about to condense into a black dragon.
However, just when Zhang Shun was about to condense the life map, suddenly, Yi Tianxing waved his hand and a water dragon appeared in front of him. After the water dragon appeared, it quickly came to Zhang Shun, connected head to tail, and turned into a ring, covering Zhang Shun and sinking into his body. As the water dragon ring drilled into the body, it can be seen that the Qi that was about to break through sank instantly, as if it was suppressed by an invisible force, but the power of Qi feedback was also suppressed, not disappearing, but directly staying in the body, suppressed in a corner, as if waiting to explode. As long as you are willing, you can still release it, which will greatly help your cultivation realm.
Surprisingly, it was Yi Tianxing who personally interrupted and suppressed Zhang Shun's breakthrough and promotion.
"Kings!!"
Zhang Shun opened his eyes and looked at Yi Tianxing, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He didn't know why he would stop him from breaking through at this time. Although the Qi Fu Fu was still in his body, he could still break through, but he still didn't understand.
"Since you have joined Dayi and become the commander of the Flood Army, as the leader of an army, you can choose one of the two superior military exercises in Dayi to practice. These two military exercises will not reject the exercises you originally practiced, but will complement each other and build a stronger foundation for you. At that time, you will be more comfortable practicing in the army."
Yi Tianxing saw it and said calmly.
The two martial arts, "Heavenly Soldiers' War Code" and "Heavenly Generals' War Code", can be said to be the martial arts that must be practiced in the Dayi Army. Moreover, these are superior martial arts, and the foundation of Taoism they create is very strong. The most amazing thing is that the power cultivated from the two war codes can be integrated with any other martial arts, and the two forces can be perfectly integrated together without being affected in any way.
It will only become stronger. Mutually amplifying each other, it can make one's original skills and magical powers not be affected by the iron-blooded evil spirit on the battlefield, and even become more powerful. And the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals Battle Code, it is obviously more helpful to practice before the Fate Map Realm, and it is more powerful for the tempering of the foundation.
"I see. Thank you, Your Majesty."
When Zhang Shun heard this, his doubts instantly dissipated, and at the same time, a surge of heat surged in his heart. Soldiers practiced the Heavenly Soldiers Battle Code, and generals practiced the Heavenly Generals Battle Code. This was a rule in the Dayi Army. Every soldier, while practicing the Heavenly Soldiers Battle Code, would also choose a set of skills, and practice them together to make their own combat power stronger. But he had just joined Dayi, so how could he know this? If Yi Tianxing hadn't stopped him, after breaking through the Fate Map Realm, practicing the Heavenly Generals Battle Code would have reduced the benefits to his Dao Foundation.
"After you leave the military camp, you can go to the Sutra Library and choose the Heavenly Generals Battle Code to practice. However, any martial arts book in the Sutra Library requires merit points. Each person can get one martial arts and one combat skill for free. They are just ordinary foundation-building martial arts and ordinary combat skills. The rules cannot be broken. However, since you have just joined Dayi and have no merit points, I can allow you to borrow them temporarily, but you must repay the merit points in the future."
Yi Tianxing nodded.
Once the rules for merit points are established, they must be followed, and everyone in Dayi will be treated equally.
Merit points are hard to come by, but not hard to get. One way is to go to the battlefield, and the other is to exchange them for skills in the Sutra Library. As long as you are determined, it is not too difficult to get merit points.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhang Shun thanked him again, and at the same time, a divine light flashed, and the information about the merit points naturally appeared in his mind. He had already made a decision in his heart: "If I can avoid borrowing merit points, I will not do it. The Black Water Scripture I have is also a superior water-attributed practice. It contains a complete life map method and various life-opening methods. In addition to these, there are some other skills and combat techniques, magical powers, and secret methods. Maybe I can exchange for a large amount of merit points. In that case, not only will I not have to borrow, but I will also have some surplus."
There are too many martial arts books in the Sutra Library, and only the martial arts books that are not in the Sutra Library can be exchanged for the corresponding merit points. If they are available, they can no longer be exchanged. One can only be exchanged once. This means that only those who arrive first can exchange.
"However, the navy must have ships. I wonder if there are any shipbuilders in Dayi who know how to build ships."
Zhang Shun asked.
In the Great Yi, there is a Changqing River. The river is vast, but the problem is that the navy cannot be separated from water. They must train in the water. When fighting in the water, ships are necessary tools. Shipbuilding is not a simple matter. Not to mention that this is in the world of cultivation. If an ordinary warship falls into the water, it will definitely be blown into pieces by the creatures in the water in a moment. Not even a dregs will be left.
Take the piranhas in the Changqing River for example. If an ordinary warship enters, it will probably be gnawed into pieces in a blink of an eye. How can it gain a foothold in the river
This is obviously inappropriate.
There must be ships, and they must be warships that can withstand attacks from magical powers and spells, and can withstand attacks from various forces in the water. Otherwise, there is no way to form a navy.
"Master Lu can build a ship."
Yi Tianxing looked at Master Lu and asked.
"I have also studied the art of shipbuilding, but the ships I built were all ordinary warships. If I want to build a warship suitable for traveling in the cultivation world, I must research and develop it from scratch. Moreover, I must integrate the rune formation and refine it using the method of refining equipment. I need time for this."
After hearing this, Master Lu pondered for a while and then answered.
He knew how to build ships, but the problem was that what was needed now was not an ordinary warship, but a warship that could truly resist the monks.
"I, Gongshu, have a mechanical ship. It not only has strong defense, but also has extremely strong attack power. However, the materials required are extremely precious, so it is still difficult to build the ship. Moreover, I don't have the blueprint of the mechanical ship."
Gongshu Lin also frowned slightly and said.
The mechanical ship is not an ordinary warship. It incorporates mechanical techniques into it, giving it various powerful functions. But the problem is that there are no drawings of the mechanical ship. Without the drawings, he has not seriously learned how to make a mechanical ship, so it is too difficult to restore it.
"Speaking of warships, I have a set of warship production drawings in my hand. However, whether it can be refined depends on Master Lu and Master Gongshu. Once it is refined, it will be a pioneering work for our Dayi."
Yi Tianxing heard it, but was not disappointed, and spoke slowly.
