Chapter 653 – Comprehension

Hongyuan City

An Zheng made the boat stop by the river, and the workers paid a total of three thousand silver taels to transport the boat to Xiu Shui City. For the boatmen, it would take them almost a year to sail the boat back to Xiushui City and return to their village. However, for them, the reward of six to seven hundred silver taels per person was already an astronomical figure.

Under the golden age, a hard currency like silver was very valuable. Six to seven hundred taels of silver was enough to completely change the lives of an ordinary family. If they were willing to stay at Xiushui City’s An Ping Inn, the wages would be very high, and they would even arrange foouse to be moved over.

After An Zheng and the others went ashore, they separated from the crew. The crew were all surprised that their boss trusted them so much, as it was a cruise that had been bought with a large amount of money. If they were to sell the cruise ship after they returned, they would get more shares.

Everyone looked at the captain, waiting for him to speak. The captain pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, “Let’s go! “Xiushui City!”

An Zheng and the rest headed towards the direction of Hong Yuan City, the river bank was still a distance away from the city gate, they did not want to use their cultivation, so they hired a horse carriage to go forward, and by the time they reached the Hong Yuan City, it was already dark. Becausrince of the Great Xixi was currently in Hongyuan city, the city gate was heavily guarded. The number of soldiers guarding the city gate was more than twice the usual number, so the people inside the city had to be under strict investigation.

An Zheng invited the people guarding the city entrance to inform them that the Duke had invited someone to come. The soldier knew that quite a few Jianghu cultivators had come to seek refuge, but no one knew if there were any almighty experts among them, so they did not dare to slight him. After half an hour, a general clad in armor came over. He alighted from his horse and rushed over to An Zheng with his fists cupped, “Excuse me, may I ask if this is Sect Master Ye?”

An Zheng nodded: “Yes.”

These few days, An Zheng had been using a different mask to take revenge, so naturally no one would suspect him. Now that he had regained some of his identity as the Cang Sect Leader, Ye Yu, he could be considered to have obtained the authority of an official …

An Zheng had already thought of an excuse on the way. He had said that he had met Da Da Da Ye who was being chased down and was being sent to the Jinling with help, but he did not dare to casually reveal his identity to anyone, so he asked for your forgiveness and the like.

When he had just arrived outside the Duke of Qin’s temporary residence, Chen Zhongxu had already walked out with large strides, and a smile was plastered on his face. “Daoist Ye, you’ve finally arrived.”

This person didn’t put on any act. It could be seen that he was begging for good.

After An Zheng and the others entered, they explained everything according to what they had thought of. Chen Zhongxu did not blame them, and instead praised An Zheng for his chivalrous intentions and such. The banquet was arranged at night, and not only were there people from the Jiang Hu who had recently come to seek refuge in the army, there were also people from the Left who accompanied them, filling the courtyard with dozens of tables.

An Zheng did not like this kind of hypocritical social scene, so he accompanied his for a while before taking the chance to leave.

Returning back to his room, An Zheng sat cross legged and began to meditate. Recently, he felt that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck. An Zheng was very clear about what was going on. Recently, his focus had been on the art of vision and he hoped to level up so that he could discover the summoner that came from the Summoning the Spiritual World. However, after being too distracted, he instead encountered problems with his own cultivation.

At such a young age, he was already at the middle stage of the Higher Completion Stage. This kind of progress speed could be said to be the only one in the past hundred years.

However, An Zheng knew that he definitely could not relax, because each of his enemies was stronger than the last. For example, the Left in Hongyuan City. Not only was the strength of the Left Swordhall in the Lower Celestial Stage, it waerrifying existence that could directly fight against a few disciples of the Buddha Sect. There were definitely some people in the Left that were similar in strength to the Left Swordhall, and there were even some old monsters that did not want to appear in the world. As for those old monsters, they were the foundation for a large clan to settle down.

After he sat down cross-legged, he had himself checked his entire body, from his meridians to the Dantian Qi Sea s. Although An Zheng had not been fighting fiercely recently, he was not injured. Firstly, it was because his battle experience was getting more and more abundant, and secondly, it was because he did not encounter any enemies that were too difficult to deal with.

The breakthrough was imminent.

An Zheng felt that the energy in his body was a little impure. It was because there were two main types of energy: one was the blazing energy of the Orthodox Pure Yang, and the other was the lightning energy that was needed by the Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns. And with the combination of these two powers, he was able to unleash a forbidden technique like the Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns, and even a forbidden technique like Heavenly Thunder Shower.

Originally, it was because An Zheng was unable to use his own strength to cast out sucerrifying forbidden technique like the Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns, his physique had long ago become different from it in his previous life as well. However, over time, his body gradually adapted to the existence of the two types of energy, so the meridians in his body gradually separated, while the Dantian Qi Sea were also separated into two parts. One part stored the power of the Orthodox Pure Yang, and the other part stored the power of thunder.

An Zheng’s current ability with the Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns was naturally nothing, the two types of energy could perfectly fuse outside of his body. But that was outside of his body … The reason why An Zheng was using that forbidden technique was outside of his body, so he could control and combine the two types of power. This fusion did not dare to happen in his body, because if there was even the slightest deviation in the ratio, it would result in a major mistake.

These two powers were equivalent to the two time bombs in An Zheng’s body. When that time came, even if An Zheng’s physique was strong, he would still not be able to withstand such internal and external injuries.

If this continued, then his cultivation base would be restricted and restricted.

An Zheng closed his eyes in thought. In any case, he had nothing to do in the past two days, so it was time for him to carefully think about how he could truly fuse with these two types of powers. The first was that after fusing with one’s body, the speed of execution would be faster, more secretive, and more direct. Secondly, he had to remove the hidden danger. He couldn’t continue on like this.

Firstly, there was no need to worry too much about fusing them outside of his body. Because An Zheng had the Holy Fish Scale’s automatic protection and because every time he used the power, it was controlled precisely, so An Zheng was not worried. However, fusing with one’s body was not an option. One had to be careful. If something went wrong, one might not die at the hands of their enemies, but rather die at the hands of one’s own hands.

An Zheng’s mind kept calculating, and now that there was a barrier between his meridians and the Dantian Qi Sea, it automatically created a wall, separating the two forces. If he opened up this wall first, the power on both sides would rush towards each other like two waves. At that time, An Zheng would definitely not be able to handle it.

Open the door?

An Zheng thought, what if he opened up a crack, and let them out little by little like opening the door?

Then, he immediately denied … If he opened the door, it would be impossible to seal him off.

He racked his brains for an entire night, but still couldn’t come up with a solution. The morning of the second day, An Zheng told Du Shoushou and the others that he was leaving the Duke of Qin’s camp for the outside of the city. Hongyuan City waather special place. Three large rivers were converging to the west of the city before flowing eastward straight towards the East Sea.

An Zheng had seen this wondrous scene when he came here yesterday, because he was a little flustered after not finding a solution overnight. When he arrived at the river bank, he stood at the top and looked into the distance. The river water was clear enough to see the bottom. The red river water carried sand, while the Long River was like a blue jade belt. The three colors were clearly separated at the junction. It was unknown if the three rivers below had already fused.

An Zheng suddenly gained some insights. The world was so big, naturally, there was an artifact that could contain everything. The three rivers converged into one place without any accidents. It was not because the three rivers were very meek, but rather because the following rivers were wide enough. No matter how much trouble they caused, they were unable to leave the river and could only flow eastwards in a smooth manner.

After An Zheng thought of this point, something seemed to vaguely grasp at the inside of his mind, but that feeling once again flashed past.

The colours of the Three Rivers Water were different, but they were compatible with one another. Other than water, the reason for that was because they were water based on the simplest principles. The color of the water was different. It was just an appearance. The feeling of grabbing onto something became clearer and clearer in An Zheng’s mind, but the more he panicked, the more he was unable to understand.

An Zheng stood by the side of the great river for half a day, but he still felt that he was a little bit lacking. Then he returned to camp and went to see the drills. At least thousands of soldiers were training on the drill grounds. Da Xi’s army had always been fierce and never lost. This kind of unpredictable battle formation had a lot to do with it.

An Zheng stood there and watched as the thousands of people changed their formation, not panicking in the slightest, and even more so, the place where Song Xi was at.

First, because of the military training that went on day after day, those movements had already sunk deep into the marrow of the bones. Secondly, because of the command flag, they had to act according to the language of the flags, which was why they had to advance and retreat.

Standing at the side of the drill grounds, An Zheng looked around and only returned to his room after it was dark for another half a day. Not long after, the person sent by the Duke of Qin, Chen Zhongxu, invited him to be perfunctory. An Zheng rejected him tactfully, saying only that he had encountered some difficulty in cultivation and needed to think carefully.

The person who came to invite him was displeased, and the gaze he used to look at An Zheng was no longer kind. That was the prince of Great Xixi! He had actually sent someone to invite him, but he hadn’t even gone!

An Zheng did not have the time to care about all these, since Chen Zhongxu was not someone who cared about small matters. He was anxious to raise his cultivation level now, because this was Hong Yuan City, because this was the territory of the Left, and because An Zheng had received a message the day he arrived … The Temple General Left Swordhall had probably already been called back from the Western Regions and was given the order to be promoted to vice commander-in-chief of the southern forces, under Chen Zhongxu’s control.

The Left Swordhall was about to return, but with An Zheng’s current strength, he couldn’t even take a single blow.

The enemy was close at hand. If he couldn’t get revenge, wouldn’t he be depressed?

But that was a genuine expert of the Lower Celestial Stage, an existence that stood at the pinnacle of cultivators in this world. Cultivators of the Lower Celestial Stage would receive the highest form of respect in any country. Therefore, even though the Holy Emperor Chen Wunuo knew that the Left Swordhall and Chen Zhongqi were very close and that the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions had done many things that went against the laws of the world, he still did not give the order to punish them and only transferred them back.

One side was fire, the other side was electricity. The combination of fire and electricity brought forth endless power.

An Zheng stood in front of the window and looked at the moon hanging in the sky.

He frowned in deep thought. Withouerfect solution, he didn’t dare to rashly attempt it. Because once they tried it, there would be no way back. If something went wrong, there would be no way to repent … It was the most violent power in two different periods of time.

At this time, Da Da Ye and Chen Shaobai walked in from outside. Da Da Ye asked wituzzled expression, “Why do I see the chefs of your Central Plains cooking and cooking? Aren’t these two incompatible? ”

“What do you know?”

Chen Shaobai spoke in a serious tone: “Let me tell you, salt and sugar are actually made from a type of raw material, it’s just that one of the ingredients is fried and it’s baked, and only your tongue can identify it.”

At this time, An Zheng suddenly exclaimed: “It’s cleared!”

Chen Shaobai was shocked, he rubbed his nose: “Are you trying to follow my lies?”

And then, with a bang, the house collapsed.
