Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

Chapter 1021

"My lord, have you now entered the Saintly Realm?"

Zhang Liansong, who rushed forward, said excitedly.

"It's just a pseudo-terrestrial immortal realm."

"It can be considered the threshold for just entering the Saint Realm."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shan replied with a smile.

And as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Dingtian said softly, "Although your Saint Realm is 'pseudo,' in terms of foundation, no one in the entire Ming Dynasty can match it."

"Huh? Second Uncle, what do you mean?"

"Others enter the Saint Realm in order to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth."

"But what about this brat?"

"By severing the Heavenly Tribulation, he is redefining the 'Laws of Heaven and Earth'."

“From now on, when he makes a move, it will no longer be ‘Heaven and Earth Without Limits, Qiankun Borrows the Law’; but rather ‘Heaven and Earth Without Limits, Qiankun Casts the Law’.”

Borrowing magic and casting magic, though differing by only one word, are vastly different.

The former is drawing strength from heaven and earth; the latter is a command!

In other words, although Xu Shan had just entered the Saint Realm, he had truly mastered the power of heaven and earth.

"Keep a low profile, Lao Chen!"

"By the way, Old Chen, you've been comprehending the power of heaven and earth for so many years. Have you reached the level of a pseudo-saint?"

"Ok?"

"If not, when you become a pseudo-saint in the future, will you also be able to cut through the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation with your sword, just like I did?"

"What the hell... You're staring at me, staring at me hard, aren't you?"

“You and your godfather Ji Gang are two of a kind.”

Chen Dingtian, whose defenses had been breached, pointed at Xu Shan with trembling arms and shouted.

"Understand Lao Ji, become Lao Ji, and surpass Lao Ji."

"Don't get excited, Lao Chen. I just want to show off, to get you excited."

"Holy crap! Is this never going to end?"

"Giggle."

Watching the old woman and the child bicker, Wen Wanwan, Youyou, and Lulu, who had rushed over, also let out shrill, coquettish laughter.

"Actually, becoming a pseudo-saint is no big deal for me."

"After all, when I was at the ninth rank, I killed Cao Zhengchun, who was a pseudo-saint, didn't I?"

"What truly makes me happy is..."

"After becoming a pseudo-saint, I'm no longer bound by the love potion."

"At that time, I will be able to free my hands and completely let myself go."

"Isn't that right, Wanwan?"

"what?"

"You look like a jerk."

Wen Wanwan, with her alluring eyes, gave the other person a 'fierce' glare at that moment.

But her charming and alluring expression already said it all.

After leaving Mingshan, Xu Shan returned to Ghost City and ordered his men to contact the Zhatian Gang immediately.

They were to secretly escort the wounded Imperial Guards back to the capital, and at the same time, they were to send back the stamens of the spider lily and the Heavenly Fortune they had collected.

Upon hearing Xu Shan's arrangement, Chen Dingtian immediately said with concern, "Ever since you led your troops into Sichuan, the Kuimen Pass has become a narrow passage for both entry and exit."

"In the Battle of Guyan Ridge, you used the name of the Yongsheng Chamber of Commerce to outmaneuver the Shu army."

"Now, it might not be easy to send these things out through the channels of the Exploding Sky Gang, would it?"

After Chen Dingtian finished speaking, Xu Shan smiled mysteriously and said, "Old Chen, then guess why I sent out all my elite troops, ordering Li Yuanfang and Wang Qinian to lead their troops to pacify Jiangzhou?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Dingtian's mind went blank for a moment.

Jiangzhou was a bridgehead into southern Sichuan and the gateway to the Shu region.

To the south lies an important city within the Miao territory; to the northeast, one can launch a surprise attack on the Kuimen Pass.

If something happens in Jiangzhou, the nearest garrison will be the Kuimen Navy.

Once the main force moves south, the Kuimen ferry crossing will be left undefended.

This gives the naval forces of the two lakes a great deal of room to maneuver.

"How can you be sure that the Jiujiang navy won't put pressure on the navies of Hubei and Hunan?"

"The Jiujiang Navy?"

"Haha. Don't worry, the current 'Prince Ning' treats us with the utmost respect!"

After he finished speaking, Chen Dingtian, who was puzzled but impressed, stopped asking for the reason and instead inquired, "Even if Li Cheng were no longer in Jiangzhou..."

"That is also a city that the Hong Miao people of Guanshan have been managing for more than ten years."

"Elite troops are stationed here, with a few exceeding 30,000."

"Moreover, there are also experts and elders from the Red Miao tribe residing here."

"With just these soldiers under your command..."

"I'm afraid it will be very difficult to win."

Hearing this, Xu Shan smiled and said, "We're not the only ones who want to cause the Red Miao of Guanshan to lose power in the Shu army."

"Hmm? You mean the gentry of Shu?"

Xu Shan nodded emphatically and then added, "Of the 30,000 troops stationed here, how many can they ultimately command?"

After saying that, Xu Shan summoned Wang Wushang to his side and asked, "What's the current situation of the Jiangzhou garrison that was previously turned into 'human cocoons' inside the Ghost Palace cave?"

The former Lone Goose Ridge garrison, who had been turned into 'human cocoons' by Li Cheng in an attempt to sacrifice them to the [Ten Elements Corpse Demon Array], were rescued by Xu Shan when he broke the [Asura Imprisonment] array.

During the unrest in the ghost town, he entrusted Wang Qinian and others with the overall arrangements.

After he left, he handed it over to Wang Wushang!

"After basic treatment, nearly a thousand people survived."

"Several hundred people are still able to move around."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shan nodded emphatically and said, "Prepare horses and provisions for them, and give them enough travel expenses."

"Let them go back to Jiangzhou!"

When Chen Dingtian heard Xu Shan's arrangement, his heart skipped a beat.

These garrison soldiers who escaped death will spread the word about Li Cheng and his gang's 'evil deeds' throughout the entire garrison camp.

We risked our lives for you, only to be turned into 'human pupae' and almost sacrificed alive?

If this matter were to spread, and with the covert support of local aristocratic officials...

The morale of the troops stationed in Jiangzhou collapsed.

Just as Xu Shan said...

At that time, how many of the 30,000 troops stationed in Jiangzhou and the Red Miao people of Guanshan would still be able to command?

Thinking of this, Chen Dingtian couldn't help but glance at Xu Shan again.

While his emotions were causing trouble in the ghost city, he had already begun to seriously plot against Jiangzhou, and even prepared to open the gates of the Shu army—Kuimen!

"Xu Shan, I have another question!"

"Hmm? Please speak freely!"

"As for the gentry of Shu County, they lived under the shadow of the Red Miao of Guanshan and the Queen Consort of Shu, which was very frustrating. But they should also be very clear about the principle of 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold'."

"Once they cooperate with you to bring the naval forces of the two lakes into Shu County, it will be uncertain whether you can maintain your current position in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shan smiled faintly and replied, "What if they can't survive?"

"what?"

"The daughter of He Zhishan, the head of the Shu clan, married into the Shu King's mansion many years ago and finally became pregnant with royal blood."

"But Princess Shi Qing of Shu, who learned of this news, has already decided to kill."

"Although the older one survived, she will never be a 'mother' in this lifetime."

"You did this?" Upon hearing this, Chen Dingtian stared wide-eyed and questioned.

"What are you thinking? I'm not interested in married women. Besides, I'm in a ghost town, so I can't reach them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Dingtian replied, "Stop joking with me. I'm asking if you were behind this?"

"Old Chen, I am an imperial envoy of the Ming Dynasty, representing His Majesty."

Even if I was involved, I can't admit it!
