Demon Race Trouble, Make Preparations!
Baxuan Immortal City -- Muxuan Mountain -- Qin Palace
Qin Xiao sat on the high platform, below him were civil and military officials, who, as was customary, reported on the daily affairs of the nine prefectures of the Northern Province...
The entire process proceeded smoothly and efficiently.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly in the Nine Prefectures, some special situations arose that required Qin Xiao's leadership to resolve one by one...
in--
The most important project is the reconstruction of the landscape. According to Qin Xiao's plan, the Yingchuan area will remain largely unchanged, preserving its basic layout of being surrounded by mountains on all sides...
The main goal is to transform the area around Baxuan Immortal City into a plain!
The plan involves widening the Ba River waterway to completely merge it with the Ying River, and secondly, opening up passageways between the two banks, as water transport was previously the primary mode of transportation...
However, with the establishment of the nine prefectures in the Northern Province, water transport could not fully meet the demand, and a large number of treasures needed to be transported by land!
certainly--
This is not just a matter of trade; it also involves the need for plains to expand Baxuan Immortal City and accommodate more Warrior...
This very fact proves that the Qin Clan is rapidly growing stronger!
With a larger base, the quantity and quality of the army will continue to increase, and only then will the Great Qin Dynasty enter a positive cycle, thus continuously becoming stronger!
Another issue is the marching problem --
While the mountains serve as a natural defensive line, they also hinder military operations. Whether it's a northern expedition or a southward advance, the Baxuan Immortal City will remain the central point...
However, it is difficult to mobilize troops in the mountains.
Moreover, given the large-scale military operations, it is necessary to convert some of the mountains and forests into plains to prepare for future warfare...
For various reasons.
This led to the existence of a Dao Foundation cultivator, every day, destroyed mountains and severed rivers, all in order to continuously improve the geographical advantages of the Northern Qin region...
However, this is not something that can be changed simply or arbitrarily.
The earth's veins are interconnected, and the water veins are mutually reinforcing. This process continuously regulates the earth's veins and water energy in the Northern Qin region, allowing the Spiritual Qi to circulate more smoothly!
For Huang Liang, it is a process of adapting to the Dao Foundation...
With each mountain he destroyed, his control over the Dao Law deepened. This was a form of cultivation, and also a way to complete the task Qin Lu had given him!
Seemingly random, each eroded hilltop actually holds a wealth of knowledge...
Each of these eroded mountain peaks was a node in a grand formation. Now that he had become Dao Foundation cultivator, it was only natural...
He then began to explore the mysteries of the Third-Tier formation!
These Third-Tier formations are meant to borrow the power of heaven and earth, using the Dao Law of nature to transform the formation for one's own use...
Moreover, it's Third-Tier teleportation array; setting up such an array would be extremely difficult.
Then, taking advantage of the terrain, beneath the eroded mountain peaks lies the point where the earth's veins connect, and a large array node is used to connect with these veins...
This will create an indestructible foundation. Then, using spatial treasures to locate the two locations, the teleportation array will be complete!
But all of this...
It is still unknown to outsiders, who only believe that reshaping the Beichuan landscape is to improve the geographical advantages of Northern Qin and ensure unimpeded future development...
besides--
There are various conflicts of interest. Now, the nine prefectures of the Northern Province are vast and boundless, and there are countless small skirmishes. After all, in a big forest, there are all kinds of birds!
Qin Xiao was both troubled by these trivial matters, yet he couldn't ignore them. As the current Qin Wang, many things still required his judgment...
Without his approval, many things simply couldn't proceed...
In the blink of an eye--
Busy as we went, it was already noon.
The officials left, leaving behind a mess. Although it was busy, what did a little fatigue matter when seeing the Lineage grow stronger every day?
As the ancients said, how can one appreciate the breathtaking view from the summit without experiencing unimaginable suffering?
Slight adjustments needed--
Qin Xiao then returned to the inner palace, where he handled the daily court affairs in the morning, reviewed memorials at noon, and occasionally summoned the six Grand Secretaries after finishing everything...
The comprehensive strategy team, which discussed the recent situation together, was the source of Qin Xiao's confidence in remaining calm and collected!
He commands countless elite and fierce soldiers, possesses six great generals in martial arts, secretly controls the Net and Shadow Secret Guard, runs the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and has the support of the Zhenyan and Jiyuan Dao Foundation forces...
In the rear lies Boundless Mystic Realm, with a continuous supply of various spiritual materials. Protecting the clan is the Qing Centipede Ancestor and the Azure Insect Abyss, which contains countless demonic insects!
If this is still not enough--
And then there's his father, who has the Nether Soul Dao Principle in his right hand, the Soul Wood Dao Principles in his left, and a powerful natal magic Law Treasure: Heaven Burial!
With Nangong Qinghong as the main soul, a vengeful ghost king was forged, possessing unparalleled combat power and various Secret Method unknown to outsiders...
With such formidable power, Qin Xiao considered himself to be a first-rate force within the Da Zhou!
It's such a pity--
Not long after returning to the inner palace, several secret reports arrived...
Their information all came from the Ten Nations Alliance. Back when Qin Lu returned, Qin Xiao had already dispatched top-tier Shadow Secret Guard to him...
In retrospect, the foresight we had back then did prove somewhat useful.
After reading the secret report, Qin Xiao's face instantly darkened, and he clenched his fist, crushing a memorial to pieces!
"The Nascent Soul cultivator stationed at the Ten Nations Alliance has been killed!"
"How dare the Demon Race do this?!"
"Relying on the Demon-Quelling True Person? Absolutely impossible. Even if the Demon-Slaying True Man suddenly betrays us, it's impossible for him to affect Nascent Soul True Lord..."
"The Frost Spirit Demon Race's abilities are not top secret. The Human Race's higher-ups couldn't possibly be unaware of the Frost Demons ' tricks, so how could they have succeeded so easily?"
"Wrong..."
"Is this an attempt to confuse the public, or is it that some powerful Demon Race has truly emerged from the demon race?"
"The news hasn't reached the Da Zhou yet, but it should be soon. In any case, we must make some preparations in advance..."
"We must inform Father and mobilize all available resources!"
"If we can buy them six months, that's enough time for Uncle Huang to set up the formation. Once the teleportation array is activated, everything can start over..."
"No more worries!"
