Nanzhou, one of the five major states in Shenwu Continent, is a vast land of beasts. The Beast Alliance is divided into four major divisions, namely land beasts, sea beasts, winged beasts and insect beasts.
Among them, there is a beast mountain range that spans tens of thousands of miles, a majestic main peak, Beast Flame Mountain, where the headquarters of the land beast is located, and a magnificent complex of beast king palaces.
In the main palace of the Beast Emperor, the eighteen land beast emperors each sat on the throne of the Beast Emperor. They were shocked by the two beast holy light pillars that fell one after another from the night starry sky and fell on the territory of Dongzhou. They all showed strange colors.
It would not be surprising if the light of the Beast Saint descended on the land of the Beast Clan in Nanzhou.
But it is very rare to come to the territory of the Xuan Dynasty of the Ziren Clan in Dongzhou.
"Two rays of light from the Beast Saint fell together in the realm of the Dongzhou Human Race, in the direction of the Lieyang Mountains near the Canglan Kingdom!... It seems that Lord Elephant Saint is still paying attention to the mammoth in the hands of the Human Race! But why? Lord Fox Saint also intervened?"
Xiangju was a little confused.
The last time the Elephant Saint lowered the light of the Holy Pillar in Luyang Mansion, he helped Ye Fan resurrect a mammoth. It once instructed the Green Wolf King of the Lieri Mountains to send troops to Luyang Mansion to recapture the mammoths, but the Green Wolf King failed in the first attempt.
Canglan Kingdom became more vigilant, but never found a suitable opportunity again, and the matter has been delayed for many years.
"The Holy Will is unpredictable, we just need to try our best to fulfill the intention of the Beast Saint! The Fox Saint's intention is not clear. The lowering of the holy talisman seems to be directed at the human child Ye Fan. But the Elephant Saint definitely hopes that the mammoth will return I am the Nanzhou Beast Alliance!"
"The growth of the mammoth is so amazing that it became a beast king in just seven or eight years. If it continues to grow rapidly, once it becomes the mammoth king, it will undoubtedly be more difficult to bring it back to the beast alliance. Take advantage of this. Take this opportunity for the two beast saints to intervene, this is the best opportunity to take back the Mammoth King!"
The beast kings discussed this one after another.
Recapturing the Mammoth Beast King is the consensus of all the Beast King, but there are differences in the specific methods.
After all, it was within the territory of the Zixuan Dynasty in Dongzhou, and the Beast Alliance in Nanzhou was beyond its reach.
If the Beast Alliance sends troops to rob it, there must be huge risks, and it is very likely that they will never return. No Beast King is willing to go to Dongzhou to die, so he can only let the Beast King go.
The humans of the Zixuan Dynasty must have noticed their intentions, and they would certainly not let them succeed easily.
The beast kings decided to send several beast kings to risk their lives from the East China Sea to approach the Canglan Kingdom on the coast of Dongzhou. In this way, there is no need to take the risk of crossing the long land in Dongzhou and directly enter the territory of Canglan Kingdom from the sea.
Once the Blue Wolf King Wolf Bandit and Fox King Su Yang of Lieri Mountain Range successfully kill Ye Fan and recapture the Mammoth, they will pick up the Mammoth King and escort him back to Nanzhou by sea.
"It is most convenient to respond by sea, but this requires the cooperation of the sea beast clan. I will go to the Sea Clan Palace and try my best to persuade the Sea Clan to make it convenient for them."
Xiangju said in a deep voice, feeling a little depressed. To get the Sea Clan to help, the Elephant Beast Clan will undoubtedly have to pay a lot of price.
…
Dongzhou.
In the center of the vast Dongzhou land, located in the most fertile land of the Zixuan Dynasty, the court ministers were also alarmed.
It was extremely rare for two Beast Saints to intervene in a war between a mere vassal state and a Green Wolf tribe, and I'm afraid there must be a conspiracy involved.
To this end, the Zixuan Imperial Court held a special meeting.
"The bottom line of our Zixuan Dynasty is that we will never allow the Nanzhou Beast Alliance to take this opportunity to snatch people and mammoths to control the beast!"
"But there is interference from the Beast Saint in this matter. We, non-saints, do not dare to resist easily, otherwise the Beast Saint will be aware of it, leaving hidden dangers in the future. The Beast Saint will be angry and vulnerable to unreasonable disasters."
"We can't directly fight the Beast Saint, but we can stop the Beast Alliance's actions. They will probably send the Beast King and risk their lives to capture the Mammoth King."
Soon, Zixuan Imperial Court made a decision.
Several King Wu were sent as observation envoys to the Canglan vassal state. The Zixuan Dynasty will not directly intervene in the battle between the Canglan Kingdom and the Lieri Green Wolf Tribe, but it must stop the Beast Alliance and seize the opportunity to take away the Mammoth King.
…
In Dongzhou, in addition to the co-lord Zhengshuo of the human race from the Zixuan Dynasty, there are also many extremely powerful sect forces. These powerful sects were created by the Martial Saint and gathered many Martial Emperors and Martial Kings. They were another powerful force besides the Zixuan Dynasty of the human race.
"One emperor, one religion, seven sects, ten ancient lands and the Holy Family."
They are talking about the Zixuan Dynasty, the Zixuan Sect, and the seven major sects of the Dongzhou Human Race: "Wenxin Sect, Lingxiao Sect, Zihuang Sect, Cangyan Sect, Danxia Sect, Brahma Sea Sect, and Qingyu Sect."
These nine forces are the most powerful and top-level forces of the Dongzhou human race.
With the Zixuan Dynasty as the core, it is the supreme ruler of the entire human race. It was founded by a god of war and has been in existence for tens of thousands of years. The Zixuan Pope is the core supporter of the Zixuan Dynasty.
The remaining seven sects are relatively independent and nominally obey the Zixuan Dynasty, but in fact they do their own thing. Each sect has the support of a large number of martial saints, and its foundation is extremely strong.
In addition, there are ten ancient lands and a large number of martial sage families, each of which is its own sect and has its own strengths. Even the Zixuan Dynasty could not restrain these powerful forces.
The Qingyu Sect of the seven major sects is a sect that is good at controlling beasts and is most keen on collecting all kinds of rare beasts. It was the first to react to the battle between the Canglan Kingdom and the Green Wolf Tribe and sent several Martial Kings to the Canglan Kingdom. Wait and see, once Ye Fan dies, he will wait for an opportunity to seize the Mammoth King.
The Brahma Sea Sect of the seven major sects sent King Wu to the Canglan Kingdom to recruit Gu Hanjian, who was born with a heart for martial arts. He also observed other martial arts geniuses and recruited them together.
…
Zixuan National Religion, the majestic papal temple.
A stunningly beautiful woman in purple clothes, with green silk shawl, a flawless pretty face, and skin as clear as snow all over her body. Carrying a top-grade Xuannv Sword on her back, she appeared silently in front of the palace. She knelt down and prostrated. Invisible sword light condensed in her eyes, and she said coldly: "Master! Why have you summoned me?"
"Go to Canglan Country and see someone."
In the hall, an old voice said calmly.
"Who are you looking at?"
asked the woman in purple.
"Ye Fan! This person is unknown in the Zixuan Dynasty. He is probably still in the Wuhou realm. If you go to Canglan Kingdom, you will naturally know who he is."
The old voice gave only one name.
"Master! Is there anyone in the Canglan Kingdom that my disciple deserves to make a special trip to see?!"
The girl in purple couldn't help but frown slightly when she heard this.
She originally thought that Master was asking her to visit an "old friend" from the past. But I didn't expect him to be a young Wuhou with a low cultivation level. Such a figure would never be able to rise to prominence among the Zixuan Dynasty and the Zixuan National Religion. Before comprehending the heart of martial arts, the realm of Wuhou was only at the lowest level of martial arts.
Even among the countless Martial Kings in the entire Zixuan Dynasty, there are probably only a handful of people who are qualified to let her, the Pope's personal disciple and extremely talented Martial King, go to "see" it in person.
She is practicing recently and has no time to see an ordinary Wuhou.
"The thousand-year war on the Shenwu Continent is about to begin, and there are many geniuses who will shine extremely brightly in the future war. Master can tell about 70% to 80% of most of these geniuses and their future destiny. But there are always some proud men who are beyond my master's calculations and have tried everything to escape from my plans. Ye Fan from the Canglan Kingdom is one of them, and my master can never see through it. Canglan Kingdom and Lieri There are some wars going on in the Green Wolf tribe in the mountains, so it's a good time to observe this person. After you go, you don't need to do anything, just report back to your teacher what you see."
The old voice in the hall said calmly.
"Don't disciples need to help the human race?"
"If there are no Beast Saints involved in this matter, then it's okay for you to take action. However, there are two Beast Saints interfering in this battle, and they have brought down the Holy Light to the Lieyang Mountains to help. If you rashly intervene to prevent it, it will easily trigger the Beast Saints' wrath. The two Beast Saints have formed a great feud, which will be very detrimental to your future growth. Let nature take its course in this battle, but after this battle, if the Beast Alliance attempts to rob the mammoth, you can stop them."
"Yes, disciple understands!"
The woman in purple clothes said no more, stood up, bowed, and instantly turned into a stream of light, leaving the Zixuan National Religion Temple and flying through the air in the direction of Canglan Kingdom.
…
In a blink of an eye, another year has passed.
Just when Ye Fan and Mammoth Dahui were practicing in the ice field. It took the Canglan Kingdom's court for as long as a year to finally complete the mobilization for the war against the Green Wolf tribe in the Lieri Mountains.
The new king of Canglan Kingdom, Ling Feizhuo, mustered up the courage to lead the expedition in person. The regent Princess Ling Jiaojiao simply moved the entire Canglan court and all important ministers to Ningbian City, the largest city on the border of Canglan Kingdom.
Naturally, King Bian Herongwu, who protected the Canglan royal court, also arrived at Ningbyian City with him. In addition to King Jin Xinwei Wu who was originally in Ningbyon City, there are already two King Wu in Ningbyon City.
Only some old ministers are left in Canglan King City.
Canglan Kingdom has as many as 250,000 elite troops, including 100,000 Ningbian troops, 50,000 Imperial Guards and 100,000 county troops. They also completed large-scale assembly in Ningbian City during this year.
The only thing missing is that as the Minister of the Ministry of War, Ye Fan, the Canglan coach who is conquering the Qinglang tribe this time, has not yet arrived at Ningbian City.
Countless carriages, grain, grass, and mysterious weapons and war supplies were continuously transported to Ningbian City from the ten major counties of Canglan Kingdom and were hoarded in the city.
After two years of reinforcement and repair by the city's military and civilians, Ningbyian City has become as solid as a rock. The top of the city is dozens of feet thick and up to a hundred feet high. The heavy city gates are made of hundreds of thousands of kilograms of black iron and are nearly indestructible.
On the top of the city built of solid rock, dense rows of arrow towers stood. Hundreds of heavy black artillery were aimed at the vast and endless plain outside the city, enough to bombard thousands of feet away.
Ningbian City is like a sleeping tiger, stretching across the great plain near the Lieri Mountains, exuding an extremely majestic momentum.
If the Green Wolf Tribe attacks the city on a large scale, they will never get a single benefit and will only return in disastrous defeat.
King Ling Feizhuo, accompanied by his ministers, climbed to the top of Ningbian City and looked at the strong and thick walls of Ningbian City. There are also hundreds of thousands of elite troops stationed in the city. There are huge military camps dotted all over the city. Countless banners are fluttering, which makes them feel confident.
Before he came to Ningbian City, he had been terrified, worried that he would lose the battle.
But seeing the mighty and powerful military power of Ningbian City with his own eyes, his confidence suddenly increased a hundred times, and he no longer worried about the threat of the Qinglang tribe.
Yan Xiuzheng was accompanying Ling Feizhuo and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, look at the might of our Canglan Army. This Ningbian City is actually quite safe! As long as your Majesty does not go into the mountains under the scorching sun, there will be no problem."
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Ling Feizhuo nodded frequently.
Yan Xiuzheng suddenly lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, I suggest that you immediately hold a grand military parade for the imperial army before Mr. Ye arrives. In this way, all the soldiers will know that you, Lord Canglan, are the real commander of the imperial army. Ye Fan is nothing but I am just following your orders. Otherwise, when Master Ye comes to take control of the army, you will not be able to move the army without giving orders, and then no one will know that it is you who is personally conducting the expedition!"
"This is a good idea...but I'm afraid the regent will object!"
Ling Feizhuo's eyes flashed and he said.
Yan Xiuzheng immediately said: "You insist, saying that this grand military parade can improve the morale of the entire army, I guess the regent will not be able to object!"
Ling Feizhuo pondered for a long time and listened to the regent in everything, which made him feel very unhappy. He finally made up his mind and said: "Okay! I have decided to conduct an unprecedented battle in the history of Canglan Kingdom on the great plains of Ningbian City. The grand military parade! Shock the beasts in the Lieyang Mountains and let them know that our Canglan Kingdom is not someone to be trifled with!"
