Chapter 2229 Dilemma
Chapter 2229 Dilemma
“Your subordinate greets the city lord!”
“Come on, but what happened?”
In the lobby, Shen Changqing looked at the person in front of him and asked calmly.
After several years, Duan Jing’s cultivation level has not changed much, which is normal.
It takes tens of thousands of years for an ordinary God to make a breakthrough, so how could it be so easy to improve?
Even though it is a period of great catastrophe now, cultivation is much easier than usual, but it does not mean that a breakthrough can be achieved just by doing so.
not to mention.
Duan Jingtian Capital is not that strong.
Therefore, Duan Jing’s cultivation progress has been slow over the years. Shen Changqing saw it but didn’t think there was anything wrong with it.
“A few years ago, the city lord ordered his subordinates to find out the whereabouts of the Ancient Dust God Emperor, and now we have the news!”
“oh?”
Shen Changqing sat up straighter, with an interested look on his face.
The underworld of the Nine Provinces and the Eight Wildernesses is vast and boundless. Hongshan City is, after all, just a force in a barren land. It is not easy to find the whereabouts of a cultivator in the vast mountains and rivers of the Nine Provinces and the Eight Wildernesses.
Especially now that the situation is chaotic and the two major camps in Kyushu are almost at war, it is even more difficult to gather intelligence.
Three years ago, Shen Changqing asked Duan Jing to find the whereabouts of the Ancient Dust God Emperor. He didn’t expect it would take so long to get any news about him.
Duan Jing said: “According to the news, three years ago, the Ancient Dust Divine Emperor left the Ancient Wasteland and went straight to Jiuyaozhou, where he clashed with the Tianxuan Holy Land. The Holy Lord Qingxuan of the Tianxuan Holy Land and a group of Divine Emperor elders worked together to suppress it, but they all ended in failure.
In that battle, a Divine Emperor fell in the Tianxuan Holy Land, and the Holy Lord Qingxuan was severely injured.
At the critical moment, Qu Shan, the previous Holy Lord of Tianxuan Holy Land, came out of the forbidden area and fought with the Divine Emperor Guchen to the utmost.
The two sides fought for more than two years. In the end, the Ancient Dust God Emperor was severely injured and Qu Shan died of exhaustion. This is the stone that recorded the battle!”
After saying.
Duan Jing has already handed over the photo stone with both hands.
Shen Changqing poured his own strength into the image stone, and the images stored in it emerged.
But because the battle lasted too long, Shen Changqing deliberately sped up.
For things like the Photo Stone, speeding up the image is just a simple method.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Shen Changqing read all the images on the photo stone.
As the picture finished playing, the photo stone also shattered.
“Tianxuan Holy Land has a profound foundation. Who would have thought that there is an ancient strongman who is comparable to a half-step god? If Qu Shan had not fallen into decay, he would have had to fight to the utmost.
It is still unknown who will win or lose this battle! “
Shen Changqing made a comment, and his words showed admiration for Qu Shan.
It can be seen from the photo stone that Qu Shan’s cultivation has reached perfection, and all his magical powers and skills are able to turn decay into magic, and possess a myriad of mysteries.
Moreover, the opponent has extremely rich combat experience and has perfect control over his own strength.
You can say that.
Qu Shan’s strength has already reached the limit of what he can achieve.
Looking at the God Emperor Gu Chen again, although he is an ancient God Emperor, his cultivation level is still inferior to Qu Shan. In addition, he has been reborn in another body, so it is not so easy for him to achieve perfect control with an unfamiliar body.
It was because the inheritance of Lord Baitian was powerful enough that Emperor Guchen was able to drag Qu Shan to death.
If Qu Shan was at his true peak, then the one who would be defeated in this battle would definitely be the God Emperor Gu Chen.
Of course.
If the God Emperor Gu Chen could also step into the realm of Half-Step God Lord like Qu Shan, then the opponent would still be able to win this battle.
But there are not so many ifs in reality.
There was no winner in this battle. Although Qu Shan died, the God Emperor Gu Chen was also seriously injured, so both sides suffered losses.
“The Ancient Dust God Emperor was severely injured. Is it possible to find his whereabouts?”
Shen Changqing asked.
From the battle with Qu Shan, it can be seen that Emperor Gu Chen did not really use all his trump cards in the battle of the ancient world. For this unknown threat, Shen Changqing would not mind eliminating it if there is a chance.
But under normal circumstances, the God Emperor Gu Chen was determined to leave, and Shen Changqing had no way to stop him.
But it’s different now.
In the battle at Tianxuan Holy Land, the Divine Emperor Guchen was severely injured, and the opponent’s strength was bound to be greatly damaged.
So.
If he really wants to find the whereabouts, Shen Changqing is confident that he can completely kill the other party.
Duan Jing shook his head: “After the battle, the Ancient Dust Divine Emperor was seriously injured and has been missing. The Tianxuan Holy Land has also been searching for him extensively, but unfortunately there is no result.”
“Then keep paying attention.”
Shen Changqing nodded.
He understood that if there was anyone who wanted the death of the Ancient Dust God Emperor more than himself, then Tianxuan Holy Land would definitely be ranked first.
The hatred between the two sides is irreconcilable and it is a real fight to the death.
If the Tianxuan Holy Land really finds the whereabouts of that person, a conflict will definitely break out between the two sides. If even the Tianxuan Holy Land cannot find the whereabouts of the Ancient Dust God Emperor, then with the means of Hongshan City, there will be no chance of finding him.
Shen Changqing put this matter aside for the time being and then learned about the changes in Guhuang.
It’s a rare opportunity to go out.
Shen Changqing just happened to know some of the changes in Guhuang in recent years.
When he asked the question, Duan Jing also answered directly.
“In the past three years, many forces in the ancient wilderness have been attacking each other. Many grassroots forces have emerged, and many old forces have been destroyed. Some independent cultivators from Jiuzhou have taken this opportunity to establish their own sects.
But overall, there are not many strong people in the ancient wilderness.
The Yin-Yang Holy Land has annexed several sect holy places over the years, and its strength has increased instead of decreased compared to previous years.
As for the Gong family, they have been fighting fiercely with the Xuanming and Lingyan sects, but there has been no result so far. The protective formations of the two sects are so powerful that no matter how the Gong family besieged them, they have never been able to break through.
At present, if the Gong family wants to truly defeat the two sects, it will take more than ten years, so there is almost no way they can even think about it.”
When Duan Jing mentioned the word “Gong family”, there was a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth.
He also had some understanding of the fact that the Gong family had sent strong men here. The Gong family thought that with a Divine Emperor in charge, they would be able to suppress Hongshan City, but now it seems that the Gong family’s strength is much weaker than expected.
The Gong family has been besieging the two sects without a Divine Emperor for three years but has not been able to take them down. With such strength, how can they covet Hongshan City?
Shen Changqing said: “A lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Xuanming and Lingyan sects have deep foundations. Even if they were unable to leave, they were able to support the Gong family for so many years.
Now it seems that the Gong family is in a dilemma. “
Three years of offensive.
Shen Changqing could be certain that the Gong family must have regretted it.
If the Gong family had known that the two sects were so difficult to deal with, they would definitely not have acted rashly. But now the Gong family is in a dilemma and there is nothing they can do even if they regret it.
retreat!
That’s impossible.
If the Gong family retreats, it will be considered as completely breaking off relations with the two sects. If the two sects rise in the future, they will certainly not give up easily with the Gong family.
Moreover, with the foundation of the two sects, a new Divine Emperor might emerge at any time. The Gong family would definitely not take such a risk.
Besides.
If the Gong family retreats.
It will only allow other forces to see the weakness of the Gong family.
Even a tiger is afraid of being coveted by a pack of wolves.
If the Gong family really shows signs of fatigue, there will be endless troubles in the future.
therefore.
No matter from which level, the Gong family will not retreat. The only way out is to completely crush the two sects.
At this time.
Duan Jing’s face was struggling, as if he had made a decision. He clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: “Your Highness, I have something to say!”
“Speak!”
“Most of the Gong family’s current strength is used to deal with the two sects, and apart from the Gong family ancestor, the remaining Gong family’s strength is also limited.
Although our Hongshan City has only been established for a few hundred years, with the city lord leading the way and a million Hongshan soldiers, it may not be impossible to deal with the Gong family.
If at this time, our Hongshan City attacks the Gong family from behind, we will definitely be able to catch them off guard.”
“In this case, the Gong family has only one choice, and that is to withdraw the troops and return to support.”
“But if the Gong family withdraws its troops, the Xuanming Sect and the Lingyan Sect will certainly not miss this opportunity for revenge. When the time comes, the three sects will join forces to encircle and suppress the Gong family, and this ancient family will be doomed.
After we destroy the Gong family, we will turn around and deal with the Xuanming Sect and the Lingyan Sect. By that time, Hongshan City will definitely be the only one in the ancient wilderness!”
When Duan Jing finished speaking, the expression on his face became hot.
What lies before him is a great opportunity to expand Hongshan City.
In Duan Jing’s opinion.
Compared with other top forces in the ancient wilderness, the only thing that Hongshan City lacks is time. If we talk about comprehensive strength, it may not be that bad.
The person in front of you is a top-notch expert who can defeat the God Emperor.
Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing did not answer immediately, but silently pondered over Duan Jing’s words.
originally.
He had no intention of getting involved.
Just let Gu Huangluan be and focus on practicing. After all, Shen Changqing doesn’t want to expose his whereabouts.
but.
Duan Jing’s words gave him some different thoughts.
indeed.
Now is a good time for Hongshan City.
Moreover, when dealing with the Gong family, there is no need to reveal too much. After all, the ancestor of the Gong family is not necessarily that strong. As long as some means are used, it is not impossible to surround and kill him.
The more important point is.
The Gong family has a deep foundation, and the Xuanming and Lingyan sects are also extraordinary. If Hongshan City can swallow up all three families, it will definitely be able to obtain a large amount of resources.
Shen Changqing looked down upon ordinary forces. Even if they were destroyed, it would only be a small loss. But for these ancient sects and families, it would be a different matter.
“However… there is also a hidden danger. If the Xuanming and Lingyan sects decide to sit back and watch the fight, then Hongshan City will have to bear the wrath of the Gong family head-on.
I am just making a suggestion, the decision still needs to be made by the city lord!”
Seeing Shen Changqing silent, Duan Jing added one more sentence.
