Rebirth Dominator

Chapter 120: The War of the Ancients

Views:

Fields were reclaimed on the plains. In the distance, a large river was flowing. The water from the river tributaries flowed along the canals. The rice and wheat planted in the fields were also ripe. Houses made of wood and thatch were built next to the fields. A courtyard could be seen at intervals. Pig, sheep and chicken pens surrounded by branches could be seen. It was a pastoral scenery. The people in the fields were wrapped in animal skins, with dishevelled hair and wearing straw hats. They were the people of Xun country who were busy farming. In front of the thatched house, there was a half-dressed woman holding a naked child, with a pottery jar on her head, passing by the field and shouting at her husband. There was also an old man on the ridge playing an ancient pottery instrument, making a dull and vicissitudes of life sound. This shows that Xun country has begun to have a sense of family and even a husband-wife system. Everything looks full of primitive and ancient meanings, making people feel as if they have entered the ancient human ignorance era thousands of years ago. This alone is already a very remarkable sight. It means that this place is close to the capital of Xun State. If we go further, we will probably only see the barbaric and uncivilized tribes, savages, and monsters everywhere. Even in the 100,000 mountains in the south, most tribes still have the bad habit of cannibalism. If we take the entire East Continent into account, most areas are still in the wilderness, with few people and deserts everywhere. Only in the areas where the big rivers flow can we see some human figures and signs of civilization. Xun State was established on an ancient relic. It has several large cities and controls dozens of large and small tribes in the west. It has been fighting with the city-state tribes controlled by the Xuanyuan State in the north for years. The 100,000 mountains in the south are completely uncivilized. The world of savages, monsters and beasts. At this moment, the farmers and children in the fields suddenly looked up and saw a star falling from the clouds in the sky. The stars shone with light, slid down from the clouds, and fell straight into the distance. Looking through the wide road on the ridge, you can see a capital city at the end of the plain. The tall city walls rose from the ground, which was the original symbol of civilization. The Xun people on the earth were shocked and all knelt on the ground, worshiping in the distance, shouting something, as if shouting the name of the witch god believed in by the Xun country. The stars fell to the east of Xundu. Xundu - The king of Xun State personally burned bones in the palace for divination. At that time, the whole country of Xun was arguing about the use of troops against the northern Xuanyuan State in the coming year. Dozens of tribal chiefs, Xun nobles, witch priests, and witches witnessed it on the spot. The witch priest wore clothes made of bird feathers, held strange wooden tools in his hands, and beat and danced strange dances. Under the hall, more than a dozen livestock and dozens of slaves were tied together. With an order, their heads were chopped off at the same time and blood was offered to the god of Xun State, a god with light that brought revival and life to all things. Hua, the great witch and king, boiled the bones and deduced the hexagram based on the cracks in the bones and the divination witch art that was passed down in the relics. The hexagram showed that the destiny was in Xun, which was very auspicious. On the spot, the entire Xun State decided to go to war with Xuanyuan State. As long as the Xuanyuan State in the south was destroyed, the biggest threat to Xun State would be eliminated. Next, they only needed to conquer the barbarian tribes in the southern mountains and unify the large and small city-states and tribes of the Dongzhou people. They would be able to establish the first dynasty. In the spring of the following year, Xun State mobilized 20,000 soldiers to attack Xuanyuan State. The 20,000 soldiers included elite soldiers of the Xun Kingdom wearing leather armor and holding spears, sturdy and hairy southern tribesmen, shamans with bald heads and tattoos who were so powerful that they could break gold and stone with their bare hands, and witches who could control magic beasts, play with poisonous insects, and swallow poisonous fire. A great battle took place on the border between the Xun Kingdom and the Xuanyuan Kingdom, on the banks of the Dahe River, and 20,000 soldiers entered the six cities and 19 tribes of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. The mighty but not orderly army marched north, opening the prelude to this ancient war in the Mountain and Sea Realm. The powerful sorcerer could tear a person in half with his bare hands, wielding a sledgehammer, with blood surging all over his body, fighting one against a hundred. He would be seriously injured if the sledgehammer touched him, and would be directly reduced to meat sauce if he was hit by the hammer. Or he would suddenly transform into a giant nearly three meters tall, throwing a thousand-pound boulder directly at the enemy's position, with scales growing on his body, allowing the opponent to chop him with a knife and an axe without leaving any trace. The skinny and withered witch priests howled while holding animal bones, and a whistling black wind swallowed up the blood of dozens of people. Some people waved their hands to make the wind blow and boulders fall. In the blink of an eye, dozens of people on the battlefield died. Some people emitted golden light from their eyes and took people's lives in the blink of an eye. The witch priests, sorcerers, and ordinary soldiers on both sides fought continuously. When the two sides started fighting, tens of thousands of people were seen carrying black winds and falling rocks in the sky. The scene looked extremely terrifying. The parties did not have any tactics or conspiracies. They just relied on numbers and means to press forward. The number of witch priests and sorcerers on the Xun Kingdom far exceeded that of the other side. Except for a few large city-states that resisted stubbornly at the beginning, they all surrendered after hearing the news. Unlike the Great Xun Kingdom, most of the people in Xuanyuan Kingdom are more keen on cultivation and enjoyment. They do not strictly control the city-states and tribes under them. On weekdays, they only send some people out of the holy land once a year. By the time the Xuanyuan people reacted, most of the territory that originally belonged to them had already belonged to the Xun Kingdom. However, as soon as the Xuanyuan people took action, a different scene appeared. They led thousands of tribes near Longqiu and blocked the edge of the Xun Kingdom. The Xuanyuan people were born with great power. Everyone was powerful and could control water, turn soil into stone, and freeze people into ice corpses and take their lives. It was not bad at the beginning, but later, as the king of Xun Kingdom and the great witch Jihua fought with the high priest of Xuanyuan Kingdom, the two soared in the sky, performing various methods in the sky like immortals. As the great witch priest of Xun State waved his hand, lightning flashed, while the great priest of Xuanyuan State waved a water droplet of inherited magic weapon, carrying low temperature and tremendous force to bombard it. The two crossed in the sky, fighting fiercely, and the light was vast and exciting, while the others below could not even get close, and could only look up at their fight. However, at this moment, the people of Xuanyuan State dug up the river below, and used magic to sweep the waves, directly submerging the Dragon Hill that was originally difficult to be conquered by the Sheep Demon, sweeping the power of the flood and swallowing up all the troops of Xun State. Xun State was defeated and lost, and 20,000 troops were lost in the north. Only some witch priests and sorcerers escaped with the king of Xun State. There was a cry of grief from top to bottom in Xun State, and even because of this defeat, the city-state alliance-style rule based on Xun State began to waver. The internal instability, the Xuanyuan State in the north was eyeing it covetously, and the barbarians in the south also began to stir. The fire of humanity established by Xun State was in a precarious position and could be extinguished at any time. At this time, a group of strangers who came from nowhere entered Xun State. They were dressed gorgeously, had a noble temperament, and their manners and erudition shocked the whole country. Everyone could perform witchcraft like a witch priest, but their witchcraft was very different from that of Xun State, and it was also very different from the witches who used the power of blood and trained their bodies. They called it Taoism and called themselves monks and Qi-refiners. Although these strangers were not as powerful as the high-level witch priests of Xun State, and even less capable of flying in the air than the king and great witch priest Hua of Xun State, their techniques were more sophisticated and systematic. They said they were willing to help Xun State defeat Xuanyuan State, and put forward a series of suggestions and skills that shocked the whole country. When the whole country of Xun State was at a loss and fell into crisis, their arrival helped Xun State resolve the crisis. These foreigners proposed a series of plans and measures to help Xun State gradually resolve internal conflicts. Through strategies, they governed each tribe one by one, trained soldiers, smelted bronze and ironware, and prepared to launch a war against Xuanyuan State again next year. They even began to gradually undermine the power of the King of Xun State, but they did not intend to replace him. Through the power of Xun State, they also began to dig and search for various large and small relics, looking for all the clues about the ancient times and scattered cultivation techniques. They set foot on the large and small relics that have been unearthed in various places. Most of these relics are relics left by some ancient cities. They may still be useful to the people of Xun State, but they are of no use to them. There is only an ancient tomb and the demon movement in the deep mountains, which is suspected to be left by ancient practitioners. However, most of the things have been erased over the years and have lost their functions. Only murals, records, and exercises are still useful. The largest relic is Xundu, which seems to have been the capital of an ancient dynasty. Many good things have been excavated in the palace. The witchcraft of the great witch and those witches came from here. After traversing these large and small relics, they finally set their sights on Xuanyuan Kingdom, because it is a place for practice that has been passed down from ancient times but has not been severely damaged. After a year of preparation, they once again started a war against Xuanyuan Kingdom, because Xuanyuan Kingdom has the oldest and most complete relics and practice heritage. Xuanyuan Kingdom is even like the Mermaid Kingdom, with the heritage of alchemy and proficient in the art of refining water elixir. The powerful Mermaid Kingdom is located in the sea, which they cannot easily plot against, and Xuanyuan Kingdom is their one chance. —————— Xundu - Most of the houses on both sides of the spacious streets are made of wood with thatched roofs. SimpleThe windows of the house are covered with mulberry paper. Going to the center of the avenue, you can see a tall palace. It was not built by Xun State, but the remains of Xun City itself. It is said that the profound witchcraft of the witch priests all came from here. People came and went in the market. In addition to civilians wearing linen clothes, there were also barbarian merchants wrapped in animal skins who brought fur goods from the south to sell, as well as witch priests and sorcerers wearing silk and satin, and even monsters wearing linen leather clothes and straw hats. Here, people live with witches, monsters, and ghosts. Because the cycle of reincarnation is not perfect, those powerful dead things often turn into lonely ghosts. Not to mention the wilderness, even in Xun City, strange things will happen in the streets and alleys at night, and no one dares to go out. Fang Xiu sat on the cloud, watching Qingyang, the Qi Refiner Jia Yi, Zhurong Zhu Liu and a large number of people making trouble in Xun State, and even thinking about Xuanyuan State. "It looks like the plan is going well!" "If nothing unexpected happens, the first dynasty will emerge!" Fang Xiu looked down at the clouds, his eyes passed through a large house, and he glanced at Qingyang and the others below. He saw that they were sitting in a large mansion with more than a dozen houses. Hundreds of slaves and servants could be seen working in the mansion. This was the largest mansion besides the imperial palace. Everyone sat on the ground. More than a dozen people were wearing silk robes of a simple style. Four beautiful slaves were kneeling at the door. The ground was covered with animal skins, and even the windows were painted. Qingyang said, "The method of the witch priest becoming the great witch priest seems to be somewhat different from the Taoism we practice, and may not be applicable to us. The several restrictions they inherited are all related to their own bloodlines, but we may not have the bloodlines inherited from ancient ancestors and gods and demons." Zhu Rong nodded, "If we can conquer Xuanyuan Kingdom, we can get the most complete inheritance. I heard that there are also methods of alchemy, as well as alchemy tools and magic tools passed down from ancient times!" At this point, Zhu Rong also frowned, "But I heard that Xuanyuan Kingdom inherited from the ancient gods and demons. In their ancestral temple, there is a person who is close to the level of gods and demons sleeping." The Qi Refiner Jia Yi immediately said very unscrupulously, "Anyway, we have the witch priests and the great witch priests of Xun Kingdom to resist, as well as those wizards who are not quite like humans. We don't have to rush to the front!" "Hey! Originally I thought that we should directly overthrow the great witch priest of Xun Kingdom, but now I think your previous consideration is more reliable!" Qingyang immediately said: "It's not that easy, the great witch priest is not simple, nor is he stupid. Besides, there is no need. We can't stay here forever. Do you want to be the king?" The Qi Refiner Jia Yi's eyes flickered: "Don't we have to leave one person behind?" Qingyang's face was not very good: "One person is not enough to suppress the situation, but it is more likely to cause accidents. What we need is stability and create a stable situation, so we can't do this." "Okay, let's discuss a strategy to deal with Xuanyuan Kingdom?" There was endless debate in the room. It seemed that Qingyang and his group and the Qi Refiner Jia Yi and Zhurong Zhuliu still had some conflicts, but it was only because of their interests. They had explored all the unearthed relics in this area, and the rest were not so easy to find, or had not yet been born. If they took over Xuanyuan Kingdom, Fang Xiu estimated that if he got the benefits, it would be time for them to part ways. Fang Xiu took a look, but he was sure that the war between Xun Kingdom and Xuanyuan Kingdom was imminent. And looking at the entire Xun Kingdom again, Fang Xiu still felt that his original decision was relatively correct. "Sure enough, bringing real people to the Mountain and Sea Realm can promote the development of the entire Mountain and Sea Realm. This is much easier than me slowly intervening and promoting development, and it is much easier to plan little by little!" "They helped me do everything, and it was more perfect than what I considered and promoted alone!" Fang Xiu nodded, and after confirming that there was no big problem here, he went to the next place. When the war between Xuanyuan Kingdom and Xun Kingdom came, he would come back to pay attention.
