Witch Wind

Chapter 326: Western Chu Storm (Part )

The first year of the Tailan human tribal alliance.

It's March again.

It is drizzling.

The apricot blossoms at the end of the alley are in full bloom.

The firecrackers exploded with a crisp sound.

The suona player's cheeks were puffed up, his skin was almost transparent, and he played the suona loudly. The sedan chair bearer, wearing a bright red wedding dress, happily carried the sedan chair and brought the bride to the gate of a three-story courtyard with white walls and black tiles.

Xing Tianli stood under the apricot tree at the entrance of the alley. The wind blew, and the petals fell, lightly landing on his head and shoulders.

Amid the laughter of relatives and friends around him, the groom carefully lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, held the red silk, and slowly led the bride, who was covered with a red veil, out of the sedan chair.

Xing Tianli smiled.

He saw several familiar faces in the crowd.

He still remembered the little girl who rushed to stuff various fruits into her pocket early in the morning in Xiaolongqiu Town... Tsk, time really flies like water. Before he knew it, that young and naive little girl had grown up and even met a man from a wealthy family and got married.

Hey!
The little girl back then was a typical "face lover". Since Xing Tianli was handsome, she kept looking up at him eagerly.

It seems now.

This groom can only be described as having thick eyebrows and big eyes, with quite regular facial features, and a simple and down-to-earth spirit in his bones.

They were a typical wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. They owned more than a thousand acres of paddy fields in the countryside and three to five shops in the county town. The groom himself was an ambitious man. He read the Four Books and Five Classics when he was young, passed the examination to become a student, and then switched to studying Western learning. He was quite accomplished in business and had been doing very well in the big trading companies in Pinghai City in the past two years.

The groom's father was a typical wealthy small landlord in the south of the Yangtze River. He was thrifty but also simple and kind. In his spare time, he liked to drink two bowls of old rice wine, two bowls a day. Because his wife was in charge, he only dared to drink two bowls and never more.

The groom's mother was also a typical housewife born in a family of Jiangnan scholars. She took care of her husband and children, managed the household strictly, was quite generous to maids and servants, and had a harmonious relationship with her neighbors.

Even the guard dog of this house was so fat that his belly was full of fat. He lay in the corner of the gate, and when he saw people, he would put on a very 'greasy' smile without barking.

It is indeed a good family worthy of entrusting your life to, and where you can live a carefree life after marrying into it.

Xing Tianli looked at the petite girl in her red wedding dress, taking small steps, shy but expectant, and walking into the yard with a slightly anxious pace. Xing Tianli laughed, hey, this little girl is interesting, I have never seen a bride so impatient to rush in.

The Black Sun leader, Liu Yan, Liu Xie, and Liu Jing, squatted in a row at the feet of Xing Tianli, like four mountain eagles, staring at the lively wedding scene. They were dressed in the same way, with the same movements, holding a small wine jar in their right hand and a braised pig's trotter in their left hand, taking a bite of the fragrant trotter, taking a sip of the mellow old wine, and sighing with satisfaction from time to time.

Most of their attention was on the old wine and pork pig trotters. They only devoted a small part of their energy to looking at the lively wedding scene in front of them.

When the bride followed the groom into the house, the relatives of both sides shouted and laughed, and rushed into the yard. The leader of the Black Sun Cult gnawed off a large piece of the pig's trotter in his hand, including the bone, and said, "Love and romance, is it interesting? To me, the affairs between ordinary men and women are not as real as a mouthful of braised meat."

The Black Sun leader sighed: "Find an unreliable man, marry him? Have children? What for?"

Liu Yan, Liu Xie and Liu Jing frowned and listened to the Black Sun leader's muttering very seriously. They drank wine, ate meat, and nodded continuously. Occasionally, the three women would raise their heads and glance at Xing Tianli in a strange way.

They were a little confused as to why Xing Tianli would ignore so many important matters of the human tribal alliance. When the big men of each family, surname and tribe of the three ancient families awakened from their ancestral lands and jumped up to get involved in the affairs of the tribal alliance, Xing Tianli, who was already recognized as the first leader of the tribal alliance, actually had the mood to come and watch the wedding of a mortal?

Liu Xie narrowed his eyes and suddenly spoke slowly: "Master, tell me, why did His Excellency Xing Tian run here eagerly and stand far away to watch such a lively scene?"

Xing Tianli flicked his sleeves and turned away.

Ah!
He held his head high stubbornly and proudly, waved his hand, and the wind from his sleeves blew away the falling apricot petals.

Goodbye, the sensitive and weak liberal arts student in my previous life.

Goodbye, the weak and blind boy in this life.

Today, the one who remains in the world is the initiator of the Tailan Human Tribal Alliance, the 'head of the alliance' who mediates disputes among families and makes all families and surnames calm and harmonious, and the 'cornerstone' of the alliance who holds the strongest military force.

The years in Xiaolongqiu Town.

Of course, that period of time was very important to him personally...but compared to what he is carrying now, compared to what he will face in the future, that period of time was actually not important.

they.

they.

He will be satisfied if all the people he is familiar with can have a good outcome.

With his hands behind his back, Xing Tianli hummed "Singing Yangzhou in the Mist and Rain" and walked slowly on the path paved with bluestone slabs. A peasant woman was walking towards him with a basket full of fresh fruits, and behind her was a big yellow dog with vigorous steps. It started to drizzle, and the rain fell on the yellow dog, and the raindrops were stuck in the gaps between the dog's fur, crystal clear and quite dazzling.

Xing Tianli turned the corner of the alley and heard the faint sound of a flute from behind a tall white wall. He stomped his foot and flew into the air, soaring thousands of miles into the sky. With a wave of his sleeves, he turned into a streak of light and headed straight for the north of Dongguo Shenzhou.

Some time ago, Xing Tianli used the power of Pangu's incarnation formed by seventy-two important witch treasures to recreate the Tailan star and forcibly separated the Eastern Shenzhou land from the Western land.

Outside the western border of the Eastern Shenzhou today, there is a vast ocean stretching for thousands of miles. People with a little cultivation and good eyesight can even look across the sea and see the protruding peaks of the Western Continent across the "Strait".

From time to time, streams of light fell from the sky, and with a "boom", the earth exploded and a large ball of fire shot up into the sky.

The evil, primitive ancient witches are still fighting against Maria's mechanical army.

Xing Tianli tried it before. With the help of Pangu's power, he smashed the evil creature that was tens of thousands of miles tall into pieces with a single slap.

But when Xing Tianli completed the transformation of Tailan Star, he was shocked to find that the evil spirit that he smashed to pieces with a slap was reborn on Tailan Star in an inexplicable way - deep underground in the Western Land, a poisonous fetus full of evil energy had been conceived, and countless evil spirits and all kinds of strange and terrifying creatures were continuously pouring out of the poisonous fetus.

Maria's mechanical army is also expanding wildly.

But the number of her expanded legions was barely enough to defeat the evil creatures spawned by the poisonous fetus.

The two sides reached a kind of strange balance - perhaps their strength was really equal, or perhaps they deliberately maintained this balance, maintaining this delicate balance that made Xing Tianli and the cultivators of Dongguo Shenzhou feel confident enough not to intervene rashly.

On the coastline at the western end of Donglu, wisps of flowing clouds were sparkling with colorful divine light. Many powerful beings from the three ancient families, who had cultivation levels above the celestial realm, were working together to set up the base of the formation here.

The most common, but also the most stable, most appropriate, and least error-prone Five Elements Killing Formation.

In the void, there was a faint flickering of strange vision.

White waves floating in the air.

Flames engulfed the earth.

Dense green trees.

There are thousands of mountains and countless golden swords.

The power of the five elements is interdependent and rotates endlessly in the void. This astonishingly large-scale five-element killing formation, with the immortal artifacts of various levels of five elements donated by the three ancient families and surnames as its hub, completely envelops the entire Eastern Kingdom of Shenzhou, which has expanded its area by more than three thousand times.

Looking down from the sky, in all directions, there are mountains with rising immortal power like giant dragons, winding forward on the earth. Eighty-one huge mountains converge in the core area of ​​Dongguo Shenzhou, forming a "hundred dragons fighting for the pearl".

Huge spiritual dragons of the earth veins lurk in these eighty-one huge mountain ranges. The dragon mouths converge at the center of the continent, spewing out endless and almost tangible primordial Qi.

A huge, pure white lotus with a diameter of a thousand miles hung high in the sky. After the rolling primordial Qi gushed out from the mountains, it was all absorbed by the pure white lotus, dispersing all the evil forces left in them and transforming them into the purest primordial Qi, which spread to the entire continent.

At the confluence of eighty-one huge mountain ranges, the core area of ​​the newly born Eastern Shenzhou, a slightly concave basin with a diameter of more than 100,000 miles was casually named "Anyi" by Xing Tianli.

Nowadays, Anyi is undergoing massive construction. Members of various families and surnames are driving countless craftsmen to build cities. In the future, this will be the "capital" of the human tribal alliance, and it will also be the new core of the residences of various families and surnames.

As for the name 'Anyi'...

The leaders of the Yu, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties were all dissatisfied... because 'Anyi' was the capital of the Xia Dynasty.

Even those old antiques of Daxia, who had just crawled out of the graves of their ancestors who had been in seclusion and pretending to be dead, were dissatisfied with the name "Anyi".

Anyi was only the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty in the middle period.

The birthplace of Daxia was Yangdi, while in later times there were other capitals.

There was an old ghost named Taiyi from Daxia who ran to Xing Tianli and argued with him by citing scriptures. He said that the name "Anyi" was good, but wasn't "Yangdi" more in line with the spirit of Daxia?

The old ghost even took advantage of his seniority to teach Xing Tianli a lesson - as a descendant of the Pingyuan Hall of the Xingtian clan of Daxia, he couldn't even figure out the name of his ancestral foundation. You deserve a lesson!

So, in front of many big men from the ancient three families, Xing Tianli beat and rubbed this old ghost who came from the orthodox lineage of the Great Xia Emperor. The great witch of the Taiyi realm was like a baby under Xing Tianli's hands and had no power to resist. It was a brutal beating!

So everyone was convinced.

Many big men of the three ancient families, especially those scholars, issued their opinions one after another citing scriptures - 'Anyi' is indeed an extremely beautiful name, which symbolizes peace and prosperity in the country, good weather and good harvests, and it symbolizes that after the human race of Tailan Star returns to the stage of human tribal alliance, even the most ordinary people can enjoy 'comfort'!
When Xing Tianli arrived at the eastern coastline, masters from various schools who were setting up the formation base flew over and saluted him.

Xing Tianli bowed to everyone in return, squinted his eyes and looked towards the sea in the west.

On the "Strait" which is about a thousand miles wide from east to west and tens of millions of miles long from north to south, hundreds of large and small mechanical warships are patrolling on the sea. Occasionally, some heavy mines fall into the water and explode at the deep bottom of the water, causing huge water columns hundreds of feet high on the sea surface.

Along with a long whistling sound, from the deep sea startled by the mines, there appeared a giant creature shaped like the legendary "Kunpeng", twisting its huge body of dozens of miles in size, rolling up huge waves and rushing straight to the sea surface.

So the warships fought a fierce battle with these huge deep-sea creatures.

In the short time that Xing Tianli stood watching, more than a dozen heavy warships were crushed and three huge deep-sea creatures were blown to pieces.

It's okay that those warships were broken into pieces, it's just some mechanical pollution.

The shattered flesh of the giant creatures fell into the sea, each of which exuded a sinister aura, attracting countless small fish and shrimps to scramble for it. In just a few breaths, a large number of small fish and shrimps underwent horrible mutations, their bodies twisted into nightmare-inducing shapes.

Xing Tianli had a gloomy face. He rolled up his sleeves and a strange creature shaped like a conger eel, only seven or eight feet long, but with hundreds of pale white arms the size of green beans growing all over its body, and a donkey-like creature growing out of its cloaca, which continuously sprayed out large amounts of sticky venom, struggled out of the sea water and was imprisoned and absorbed by him.

A bolt of lightning struck, turning the strange evil creature into a ball of ashes.

Xing Tianli waved his hand, and ashes fell into the sea. Countless tiny tadpole-shaped creatures quickly bred in the extremely fine ashes. They swallowed the nutrients of mayflies in the sea water. In just a short breath, they became several inches long and then quickly spread in all directions.

Xing Tianli let out a breath.

With his current strength and cultivation level, this evil spirit cannot find the fatal weaknesses of these evil spirits and has no way to completely eliminate them.

He couldn't do it, and neither could the Taiyi and Jinxian from the three ancient families.

Perhaps, when Xing Tianli truly masters the mysteries of the Daluo realm, and when he can mobilize the power of more incarnations of Pangu, he can destroy the evil and poisonous fetus that has already taken root in the center of the earth... But the current Xing Tianli, the current Dongguo Shenzhou, and the current human tribal alliance are helpless against these evil spirits of unknown origin.

lucky.

Those primitive ancient witches still have some "concerns" for the human race and the Eastern Shenzhou.

In the Western Land and other continents, they used evil means to raise large amounts of flesh and blood as food. They did not launch an attack against the Eastern Divine Land - they did not take action. The leader, the poisonous fetus that had been broken by Xing Tianli but had changed its form and was parasitic in the center of the earth, did not launch a full-scale counterattack against the Eastern Divine Land.

They just fought endlessly with Maria's mechanical army in the Western Continent, on other continents, and on the vast ocean.

So, very good!
Xing Tianli frowned and muttered, "Well, well...Those who love war will perish, and those who forget war will be in danger...It is actually a good thing for the Human Tribal Alliance to have these two forces that are intertwined with each other to deter them from the outside."

Four streams of light flew over.

The leader of the Black Sun Cult was already a little tipsy. She started to act crazy and approached Xing Tianli with a laugh: "Xing Tian Taoist, come on, come on, tell me, your girlfriend is getting married, how do you feel about it?"

In all directions, masters from various families and surnames who were setting up the Five Elements Killing Formation suddenly became alert.

The huge Eastern Kingdom of Shenzhou, if you want to use a large formation to cover it, even if it is just the most common five-element killing formation, the workload is a bit outrageous. Unfortunately, the layout of this formation does not have much subtle thinking, not much clever ideas, just pure "physical labor"...

The masters of various families and surnames set up this Five Elements Killing Formation, and it was such a huge Five Elements Killing Formation, it was extremely boring and tedious.

Now, all of a sudden, what did they hear?
The leader of the Black Sun Cult said - Xing Tianli’s girlfriend?
Oh, that's really exciting.

Even the Golden Immortal leader who was measuring the direction of the landmasses and mapping the direction of the spiritual dragons on the ground had already grasped the immortal communication device and was secretly asking the elders of the Xingtian clan, who were familiar with him, for information: "Is your little carp feeling amorous? Would you like to marry the beautiful, gentle, and virtuous girl from my clan?"

Xing Tianli rolled his eyes and sighed heavily at the Black Sun leader: "You old man, are you in love? In our Xingtian family, there are several elders who are of the same age as you, who are still strong and vigorous. Would you consider it?"

The leader of the Black Sun Cult was furious and rolled up his sleeves to fight Xing Tianli.

The three girls, Liu Yan, Liu Xie and Liu Jing, clapped, stamped their feet and made loud noises on the side - no matter who gets beaten black and blue between Xing Tianli and the Black Sun leader, these onlookers are not afraid of any trouble!
Life is so dull.

As the days passed by, Eastern China was truly on the right track.

The human tribal alliance was established again, and a human ancestral temple dedicated to the Great Sage Pangu, various saints, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was built in the core area of ​​Anyi, and the incense became increasingly prosperous.

Even though the people from the three ancient families had all kinds of distracting thoughts in their hearts, under the nourishment of this extremely rich primordial Qi, they suppressed the burning flames in their hearts, and one by one they made plans and formulated various rules and regulations for the tribal alliance, helping this behemoth to develop little by little.

Everyone is busy.

Only Xiang Liang, who was brought back to Tailan from the dimensional world of the Mother Tree of the World by Xingye, Xingyue and others, has been patrolling the edge of the continent where Xingye and Xingyue people live these days.

Finally, one day, Xiang Liang seized the opportunity and sneaked deep into the mainland, into the core of the dense jungle.
