Chapter 2337: Nine Sons Descend, The Boundless Sea Monitors Heaven

The current maritime situation is clear to everyone. The near-sea islands have already become the backyard of the Qi country.

The court of the Qi country discusses Doctor Ye Hen Shui, who implements a strategy in the sea to "close each island, with curved water as corridors." All day long, they hold banquets and socialize, various poetry meetings, wine meetings, business meetings... and subtly complete the transformation of all the near-sea islands.

While emphasizing the characteristics of each island, they also "componentize" all the islands, making them different parts of a complete whole. Business in one place, agriculture in another, fruit cultivation here, mulberry planting there... In short, one side cannot leave the other, and each island cannot exist independently.

Diao Hai Lou has completely no power to resist. Yang Gu always partially resides in one corner, while all other islands are even more eager to surrender in fear. The East Sea becoming the sea of the Qi country is slowly being pushed as a consensus and changing into reality.

Peng Lai Island has repeatedly tried to exert influence, borrowing the matter of supporting Diao Hai Lou to smoothly establish a presence at sea, but has also been repeatedly pushed back by the Qi people.

This open strife and veiled struggle is wonderful, a chapter that cannot be fully described by people like Ye Hen Shui and Qi Wen.

In such a situation, when the Jing country people come from the west with great momentum, the Qi people can unexpectedly completely abandon the previous game, choose to open the gates wide, let the Jing people in, and give them an opportunity to enter the game. This undoubtedly requires courage.

They have their eyes on the overall situation of the human race, and are not at all afraid of contending with the Jing people.

"Let you come, share with you, and afterward contend with you" — this sentence contains power, embodying the confidence of an empire, and making someone as majestic as Lou Yue also secretly feel a shock.

In recent years, the Jing country has actually lost several times in confrontations with the Qi country. Not once was it a major injury, all were small skirmishes. But it is still rare for the Jing country, whose prestige has dominated the world for so long, to lose even a few times.

But in the competition for the world's first hegemony, the Jing country has never taken the Qi country as its most important opponent.

Because the hegemony of the Eastern country is only a few decades old, its operation is too short, and its foundation is too shallow.

The challenge from the Qin country is what the Jing country pays the most attention to, the ambition of the Mu country is a heart ailment... but unconsciously, the youngest hegemonic country among them, the Qi country, has actually grown to this extent? This extent of engulfing the universe, with majestic mountains and rivers!

The Jing country has its eyes on the ten thousand generations of the human race, and the new hegemon, the Qi country, is also capable of bearing this responsibility.

Lou Yue looks at Cao Ji and cannot help but ask: "Is this the meaning of Duke Du, or the meaning of the Great Qi Emperor?"

Cao Ji says indifferently: "This is this commander's meaning. But this commander being here is the meaning of the Son of Heaven of this country."

Cao Ji, a true hero!

Jiang Shu, the Son of Heaven of Great Qi, a true overlord!

"Good!" Lou Yue praises: "The Qi country coming from the east should be at the forefront! I see it now!"

Some characters are so radiant that even if you stand opposite them, you must admit it.

The first True Person of the Central Domain then turns his body in the high air, letting his long robe flutter. The embroidered tigers on his clothes seem to want to fly to the sky.

He turns his back to the Qi country's Heaven-Covering Commander, the Qi country's Court Discussing Doctor, and faces the vast sea, saying: "The history of the sea race is a vast ocean of waves. Beginning from Lie Mountain, ending at ten thousand countries. From the Middle Ancient era to now, generations have contended, and countless countries have perished. Our generation inherits the will of our predecessors, continues the blood of heroes, and vows to achieve merit in this generation!"

He raises his right hand high, lifting it in front of his body. In his palm is that continuously rotating Mixed Cave World. The black darkness seems to swallow all the colors of the world, even his voice.

In the depths of the Mixed Cave, it seems something is brewing.

Cao Ji and Ye Hen Shui both stand on Tian Ya Tai, along with that silent statue of Diao Long Ke, gazing east at the vast sea.

In their gaze, Lou Yue controls the Mixed Cave, his body like a heavenly pillar. In front of him are arrayed giant beasts, like towering mountains.

The power of the Dragon Emperor's Nine Sons descends upon the bloodline giant beasts.

Between heaven and sea, a grand and magnificent essay unfolds!

This essay uses ten thousand armies as words, national characters as bones, heaven and sea as paper, Wen Xiang holding the pen, and Lou Yue as the first stroke!

The vision of the Jing country to forever eliminate the sea trouble before the Shen Xiao War begins is slowly being outlined into reality. Things that seemed "absolutely impossible" are giving birth to possibilities.

The maze boundary, which lies between the vast sea and the near sea, is like a huge, unmistakable shadow, polluting the heaven and sea. From the Middle Ancient era to now, for many years, it has separated the two seas, making that unable to reach this, and this unable to reach that.

It must be that the equilibrium of the maze boundary is broken, and then one side impacts the other. It must be a good opportunity not met in ten thousand years, and then it is possible to witness a new change in the sun and moon.

Now, a great opportunity is being created, and great power is happening.

Within the "shadow," a voice penetrates the maze barrier, knocking open the sealed town, borrowing great power, and rising with a boom from that hard-to-know, hard-to-perceive place —

"Peng Lai Island Meng Yu, now obeys the holy command..."

Then follows a piece of obscure and complicated blessing words, word by word flying out, like an old man leaning on a staff, walking alone on a bitter road.

"The divine sea is seen differently, the immortal heaven is not divided. Sharing the sun and moon, then opening the quiet profound. The night of the Middle Ancient era, not heaven but dawn..."

These blessing words declare along with the growth of the nine sons' bloodline giant beasts. Voice after voice is cold and hard, performed with great difficulty. Spitting out words is actually like a process of nurturing and giving birth.

But the further back, the grander, and the more acceptable to the ear, until the final chapter, word by word like knocking ancient music, seeming to finally arrive at the birth of a divine emperor, the moment of a new king's ascension, when all beings should celebrate.

The near sea should welcome a new monarch, and the vast sea should welcome a new master.

The voice declaring the blessing words finally converges into a grand sentence: "Swear to open a new heaven!"

The booming voice within the maze boundary is that of Meng Yu, the True Person guarding the Cang Wu Border, originating from Peng Lai Island!

Along with his voice falling, a line opens up in the center of the sky — the sky is boundless, the sea is boundless, so the sky, of course, has no middle line. But when this crack-like light line appears, all who gaze at it will take it for granted that it completely and fairly divides the sky, that it is the middle line of the sky.

It is the dividing line of ten thousand things and ten thousand objects, it is within the Dao.

It is... the sword light of the Toward Cang Wu Sword!

The biggest victory fruit of the last maze boundary war, while many people still haven't realized it, has already been used.

How to describe this sword light?

In the gaze of all beings at sea, it possesses infinite possibilities.

It can almost change all "determined" things!

People can see that the Middle Ancient world seems to return. The Nine Sons simultaneously run through the Heavenly Avenue, a golden broad road, just so spread out in the vision of all people. The virtual shadows of the Dragon Emperor's Nine Sons solidify step by step, approaching the present world step by step. The nine sons' strange beasts with the bloodline of the Nine Sons, whose life essence is continuously leaping, are gradually becoming virtual.

It is precisely in this process of virtualization and solidification that the power of the Dragon Emperor's Nine Sons is truly migrated to the present world.

Prison Ox, Ya Zi, Ba Xia... the Nine Sons descend to the world.

Nine majestic figures are not only gazed upon by the human race in the near sea, but also appear in the eyes of the sea race in the vast sea at the same time. Because this through-heaven avenue, where the Nine Sons simultaneously run, at this time, also penetrates the dark clouds of the vast sea, appearing in the high sky of the evil sea where giant waves roar.

In the process of the great power of the Dragon Emperor's Nine Sons descending from the Middle Ancient era to the present world, there exists one last point of barrier.

Between the near sea and the vast sea, the progress of the Nine Sons' power into the vast sea concerns the last few obstacles in the maze boundary.

All of them are clearly wiped away within this single sword light of the Toward Cang Wu Sword.

The maze boundary, of course, still exists in terms of space, and the long river of history, of course, still spans the definition of time. But the broad road where the Nine Sons simultaneously run is no longer constrained by anything, no longer obstructed by any existence.

Hence, such a Middle Ancient Heavenly Road also appears so concretely in the vast sea.

The sea race is instantly alarmed!

— The sea race is of course not just alarmed at this moment. During the frequent abnormalities on the near-sea islands, the sea race has already obtained intelligence and made various reactions.

Even when Wang Kun brought the You Guo Holy Turtle leaping over Hai Men Island, the sea race side still had a True King curious about the confrontation between the Jing country and the Qi country in the near sea.

The human race is the biggest enemy of the sea race. The vast sea is extremely evil, and advancing westward is the only outlet.

Except for the tit-for-tat confrontation within the maze boundary, the sea race also constantly pays attention to the near-sea islands, which is to say, to the place where all human traces and fireworks are.

The strong ones of the sea race often need to fight against adverse environments and strive for survival space for their race. In such a situation, they still maintain a configuration of one True King and seven King Dukes throughout the year, constantly monitoring the movements of the human race to respond at the first time.

That year, when the Yang Country was in chaos, the sea race actually obtained news and responded earlier than the Yang Country garrison troops on the near-sea islands. This shows how huge the sea race's investment is in terms of intelligence.

After the death of Gao Ji, prosperity has naturally not fully recovered. But because of the defeat in the last maze boundary war, the sea race is especially vigilant.

However vigilant, who would have thought that the maze boundary, which has spanned the vast sea and the near sea since ancient times, would actually no longer be a barrier?

No matter the human race or the sea race, they must first obtain absolute advantage within the maze boundary before it is possible to attack the opponent's heartland.

The maze boundary has existed there for a long time since the Middle Ancient era, it is a necessary passage. This seems to be an inherent truth, deeply rooted there.

The Toward Cang Wu Sword shatters all common sense.

The monitoring platform built upon the eternal dark vortex is ground from the remains of ancient sea beasts.

Five huge bone balls are connected by spine-like bone pillars, rising in a spiral shape, thus forming the entire structure. It is much higher than the sea surface, seeming to hang down from the top of the sky.

The upper half of the bone ball has a circular opening, which is for the "ring window."

From the ring window, one can glimpse the hollow interior of the bone ball, seeing that it is cleverly divided into different rooms. The five bone balls are just five castles.

In the "ring window" of the highest bone ball, there is a pair of angry eyes reflected in front of the window.

Alarm String King Qi Xiao Qian turns and walks back: "That black turtle alone is not simple! The Jing country has been called the world's first empire for so long, it is absolutely not a paper tiger. If they want to take action in the sea, it will absolutely not be a small skirmish. Diao Hai Lou is no longer worth mentioning, and Yang Gu is too small. Under the current grand situation where all realms are preparing for the Shen Xiao War, if their target is not the Qi country, then it can only be us! I have been telling you all for a long time, saying it so clearly, and you are still not alert?!"

"How else to be alert then, Alarm String King?"

In the huge meeting hall, facing west and sitting on a large chair, is a cold, stern, and thin figure. He is born with a pair of fish whiskers and has very profound eyes, gazing at Qi Xiao Qian: "One True King level black turtle, one False King level cultivator, five teams of soldiers, less than a thousand people. We obtained the intelligence at the first time, and have already sent letters to the maze boundary. The East Sea Dragon Palace and the Sa Po Dragon Domain have all received the news and raised the alert... what else? That True King level black turtle can't even enter the maze boundary."

Wu Shun Wang Nian Nu Xing is a King Duke proficient in human culture. He is well-versed in Confucian law, and participates in both Buddhism and Daoism, understanding the human race very well. Even his King title is very human-like, sharing the same title as a meritorious and outstanding King in the history of the Jing country, whom he also admires greatly among human strong ones.

So-called "learning from the human race and controlling the human race."

During the last maze boundary war, he bore an important duty and could not participate in the front line, but many of his judgments about the human race on the front line were ultimately confirmed by facts.

After the end of the maze boundary war, he was specially transferred to the monitoring platform, aiming at all matters of the human race, doing preliminary discussions and screening, and also having certain decision-making power.

"Not enough, this is still far from enough." Qi Xiao Qian says extremely seriously: "I have a premonition that the actions of the Jing country this time are certainly not ordinary. It is very likely to thoroughly change the maritime situation."

"Doesn't the Jing country's invasion and occupation of the near-sea islands also change the maritime situation?" King Duke Shui Ying Qing says from the side: "I also agree that the Jing country must have a plan, but I don't understand why Alarm String King is so certain. Why can't the Jing country's target be the Qi country? Although Gao Ji's Saint seal town of the maze boundary was to temporarily slow down the situation and accumulate power, it was not without the idea of stripping our race's influence and quietly observing the changes of the human race. The human race is accustomed to internal fighting, do you and I just know this today? That year, the Yang Country collapsed, and all sides attacked each other. The last maze boundary war just ended, and the Qi country turned around and wanted to swallow Diao Hai Lou. There are countless such instances. You actually have such confidence in the integrity of the Jing country? Alarm String King, don't lose once and even lose your courage."

Qi Xiao Qian fiercely twists his head! He looks at him sternly: "Shui Ying Qing, you are so stupid that I haven't killed you directly, why do you say this is?"

"You!" Shui Ying Qing is furious for a while and stands up.

"Do you know what the overall situation is or not?!" Qi Xiao Qian interrupts him: "You don't know, doesn't the Jing country also not know? Before the Shen Xiao War begins, fighting to the death with the Qi country, does he dislike the human race having been peaceful for too long, living too comfortably? We have been hit out of the sea by the human race. We have just experienced the miserable defeat in the maze boundary. Gao Ji Saint, Fu Hai Saint have all died in battle. Where does your confidence come from to look down on the human race's first empire!? Today my words are for the public good, no matter what purpose you have in provoking, shut up with me! Don't force me to kill you!"

Boom boom! Boom boom!

The specially shaped monitoring platform sends out booming sounds at this time. The sea wind transmits news, shuttling within the bone cave, emitting a unique whistle.

New intelligence has already been transmitted —

Pei Hong Jiu leads a team appearing on De Qiao Island, Xu San leads a team appearing on Wu Dong Island. Lou Yue appears on Tian Ya Tai!

"Alarm String King." Wu Shun Wang Nian Nu Xing opens his mouth and says: "I always knew you were alert, and I also believe you have a target. But you say the preparations are still not enough now — where should the preparations start again?"

Qi Xiao Qian stagnates for a while.

Yes, where should the preparations start again?

The sea race's environment is so adverse, almost all strong ones have responsibilities.

The maze boundary again has the constraint that divinities above cannot enter... what else can be prepared?

"Summon all drawable False Kings." Qi Xiao Qian grits his teeth and says: "Exhaust them to fill the maze boundary!"

Nian Nu Xing sucks in a cold breath and looks at him seriously: "This matter is big, not something you or I can decide. Are you determined to make such a suggestion to the Emperor Lord?"

"I will not sign!" Shui Ying Qing shouts from the side.

"I am determined! This is not because of my intuition, nor because of my divine ability. This is just based on my simplest and purest judgment of the situation! The Jing country must have great actions to subvert the maze boundary. We must make the most sufficient preparations!" Qi Xiao Qian ignores Shui Ying Qing, only looking at Nian Nu Xing: "Do you support me or not?"

Nian Nu Xing bites his teeth, finding it hard to decide for a while.

"I support you!"

At this time, a voice rings out.

A tall, thin, bald man wearing a black robe suddenly appears in the room, instantly bringing down boundless dignity.

Qi Xiao Qian, Nian Nu Xing, etc., all kneel and prostrate.

This bald man does not solicit any opinions, directly issuing an order: "In the name of Ling Ming, decree all seas, all free King Dukes, exhaust them and send them to the maze boundary! No matter what the human race wants to do, we will first clear the courtyard, eliminate hidden troubles, to ensure complete safety!"

The one with the title "Ling Ming" can only be Ling Ming Emperor Lord Wu Zhi Yan, the most excellent wise teacher of the sea race in this era, also titled... "Ming Emperor"!

When he descends to the monitoring platform, he naturally takes over the highest authority.

But almost at the same time as he issues the order...

Outside the ring window, golden light unexpectedly shines. From the heavy clouds and fog, a strip of infinitely magnificent avenue spreads out —

The Middle Ancient Heavenly Road descends!
