Chapter 227 Breakthrough
"So they are the best disciples of Senior Brothers Yuding, Puxian, and Wenshu. No wonder they are all so imposing and outstanding."
Jiang Ziya exclaimed, "You are able to step forward and lend me a helping hand at this moment. This is truly a blessing for our Great Zhou."
After saying this, Jiang Ziya stepped aside and showed the kind-looking Ji Chang standing beside them to the three of them, and continued:
"Come, let me introduce you to him. This is King Wen of the Great Zhou, Ji Chang."
"He was not only a benevolent monarch, but also a wise man who cared about the world and was committed to saving the people from disaster."
Upon hearing this, Ji Chang bowed slightly to show his humility. At the same time, he glanced at Qing Mu and the other two gently, and said in a steady and powerful voice:
"My three friends, I have long heard that the Chan Sect is full of talented people. It is a great honor to meet them today."
"I am deeply grateful to you for abandoning your seclusion in the immortal mountains and coming to help my Great Zhou."
Upon hearing this, Qingmu, Ziyu and Ning Sheng hurriedly bowed to show their respect.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. As cultivators, we should take the people of the world as our responsibility."
"Master often says that cultivation is not only about improving one's own cultivation level, but also about improving one's state of mind."
"We are honored to have received the recognition from the King and Uncle Jiang today. We will do our best to live up to their trust."
As a representative, Aoki expressed their determination in sincere words.
Ji Chang nodded slightly, his eyes revealing satisfaction and relief.
After a while, Jiang Ziya looked solemn, his eyes swept over every general and Qingmu and the other two in the tent. He took a deep breath, opened his mouth slowly, and told them the strategic deployment in his mind.
"Qingmu," Jiang Ziya's eyes fell on Qingmu first, with a bit of trust and expectation, "You have extraordinary cultivation, courage and strategy. I want to give you 100,000 elite soldiers to lead to Jiameng Pass."
"This pass is a heavily defended place of the Shang Dynasty. I know that you can use your wisdom and courage to defeat the enemy and open the door to victory for our army."
Qing Mu was shocked when he heard this, then he bowed and accepted the order, with a determined light flashing in his eyes:
"I will obey your orders, and I will live up to your trust. I will break through Jiameng Pass!"
Then, Jiang Ziya turned his gaze to Zi Yu, and his tone became more calm and trusting:
"Zi Yu, you have a strong character and outstanding strength. I order you to lead another 100,000-man army to Qinglong Pass."
"This pass is in a strategic location, easy to defend but difficult to attack, but I believe you can conquer it and bring another victory to the Great Zhou."
Zi Yu's face was solemn, he clasped his hands together and replied in a deep voice:
"Disciple obeys your command and will do his best to live up to your trust!"
Finally, Jiang Ziya's eyes fell gently on Ning Sheng, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Ning Sheng, just follow us and march to Sishui Pass."
Ning Sheng nodded slightly when he heard this, bowed his hands, and said bluntly:
"Disciple will follow the words of Uncle Master!"
Seeing this, Jiang Ziya nodded with satisfaction. Then, he turned to Ji Chang and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly and time is of the essence. I suggest that the army march out immediately. Divide the troops into three groups and capture Jiameng Pass, Qinglong Pass, and Sishui Pass as soon as possible."
When Ji Chang heard this, a hint of approval and relief flashed in his eyes.
He was well aware of Jiang Ziya's wisdom and strategy, so he naturally believed in the suggestions he made.
Ji Chang nodded slightly, his voice was light but full of power:
"The Prime Minister's words make sense, and I fully agree. The army will prepare immediately and act according to the plan. I hope that all the generals will work together to complete the great cause of conquering Shang as soon as possible!"
Following Ji Chang's order, a uniform response suddenly rang out in the tent.
The generals stood up one after another, received their orders and prepared to make arrangements for the army's departure.
……
Yufu Mountain, in a secret room inside the Cangqiong Palace.
Luo Shu sat upright on the cushion with his eyes closed and concentrated. He constantly guided the spiritual power in his body to run along a specific trajectory. Every breath seemed to attract the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
The spiritual energy around seemed to be attracted by an invisible force and slowly gathered in the secret room, forming a huge vortex that enveloped Luo Shu.
In this vortex, the spiritual power is so dense that it almost turns into liquid, as if every drop contains tremendous energy.
Luo Shu's heart was empty. He discarded all distracting thoughts and only remained with the pursuit and desire for the Tao.
He knew very well that the breakthrough in cultivation was not only the accumulation of spiritual power, but also the sublimation of the state of mind and the deep understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.
Therefore, Luo Shu kept trying to communicate with the spiritual power in this vortex, feeling their rhythm and pace, trying to comprehend the power of higher-level laws from it.
Luo Shu's body was gradually covered by a faint golden light, which was the qualitative change of the spiritual power in his body after being compressed and refined countless times.
There were faint golden veins flowing beneath his skin, a sign of the perfect fusion of spiritual power and physical body.
In order to break through the realm of perfection of the Golden Immortal, Luo Shu gritted his teeth and continued to guide the spiritual power in his body to impact the seemingly invisible yet indestructible barrier.
Each impact was accompanied by severe pain and a tearing sensation, as if the entire body was about to be torn into pieces by this force.
But Luo Shu did not back down, and there was a determination in his eyes.
"Click——!!!"
At this critical moment, it seemed as if the sound of the barrier breaking was heard.
Luo Shu was delighted to see that the barrier was slowly cracking and loosening.
He was seen mobilizing the spiritual power in his body and rushing towards the barrier that was about to collapse, roaring like a dragon.
"Break it for me!"
Luo Shu let out a low roar. Although his voice was light, it contained unquestionable power.
As he finished speaking, the spiritual energy in his body slammed into the barrier, instantly bursting out with dazzling light and deafening roar.
Under the impact of spiritual power, cracks in the barrier spread rapidly, and finally shattered, turning into specks of spiritual light that dissipated within the body.
Immediately afterwards, a vast amount of spiritual power surged into Luo Shu's body like a tide, merging with his spiritual power, allowing his cultivation to instantly soar to the perfect state of Daluo Jinxian.
At that moment, Luo Shu felt as if he had merged with the heaven and earth. He could clearly feel every change and rhythm between heaven and earth.
His body became more indestructible, and his spiritual power became purer and more powerful.
When Luo Shu opened his eyes again, the vortex of spiritual energy around him had dissipated without a trace, leaving only spiritual light and a faint fragrance filling the room.
He stood up, feeling the surging power and endless vitality in his body, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Today, I have reached the perfection of the Golden Immortal!"
As soon as Luo Shu finished speaking, a clear voice rang out in his sea of consciousness.
[Ding! The system triggers a task, triggering three selection tasks. The host can choose one of them to complete the task! ]
Hearing the system prompt, Luo Shu raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and thought to himself:
"The one who brings gifts has arrived."
"System, let me see what the mission is this time?"
[{Choice 1}: Leave Yufu Mountain and go to Sishui Pass alone to help! {Reward}: Nine-transformation Golden Pills - six pieces! ]
[{Choice 2}: Leave Yufu Mountain and lead your disciples to support Jiameng Pass, Sishui Pass, and Qinglong Pass! {Reward}: The innate killing treasure - the God-killing Spear! ]
[{Choice 3}: Stay in Yufu Mountain and preach to your disciples for three years, {Reward}: A volume of Tao Te Ching! ]
After Luo Shu finished reading the contents on the system panel, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.
"This... this attack on Shang has actually already begun?"
