Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 349 Donghuang Taiyi, Under One Person

In fact, there are many charming people in Qin Dynasty, such as Yan Lu.

Yan Lu, in such a chaotic world where people's hearts are in turmoil and the world is bustling with people, no one can be free. He is so clear, pure and indifferent to the world, he is indeed a unique existence.

He was displaced from childhood, and his only reliable master committed suicide to protect him. From then on, he had to move forward alone, bearing all the hardships on his own. How could he not have witnessed the wickedness of human nature? How could he not have seen the various forms of life?
But he never deviated from his own heart. He held on to his clarity, not being confused by hatred, not being tempted by power and interests, and not being bothered by worldly affairs.

His profound thoughts are few can comprehend. Although he is known for his gentle and indifferent nature, he is not indifferent to matters that do not concern him, nor is he a coward. Faced with the rebellious Mohists, he extended a helping hand and saved them from danger.

Faced with the dispute between Zhang Liang and Fu Nian, he took the initiative to assume all responsibilities, and did not hesitate to expel Xiaoshengxianzhuang, which he regarded as his home, from the sect. This was not only a protection for his junior brother Zhang Liang, but also an understanding and consideration for his senior brother Fu Nian.

Faced with Zhang Liang's difficult choice, he comforted him and said that he would support him and share his burden no matter what.

Faced with the life-and-death crisis of Confucianism, he also came out with a sword, ready to fight to the death.

How can one not like and admire Yan Lu, such an open-minded, clear-headed, gentle and brave gentleman?

A person like him is no longer just an individual, but a representative, representing a life attitude of being at peace with the world, a life philosophy of conforming to nature, and a life pursuit of understanding the true meaning of the world.

There is also Zhao Gao, who is the exact opposite of Yan Lu.

He is ambitious and will do anything to gain power, and he is determined to stand in the supreme position in the world.

As a popular figure favored by Ying Zheng, an imperial dignitary, the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, and the leader of Luowang, his abilities are unquestionable.

He is cunning, cold-blooded, scheming, good at planning and strategizing, and has a strong insight into and control over people's hearts. He can set an unpredictable trap with just a few words.

However, such a sinister person is not ugly or despicable in appearance, but rather very "enchanting and beautiful", with a calm and composed temperament, elegant and low-key, and a hint of dominance and nobility.

Although as a villain, he treats life as worthless, using or discarding it at will, and always disguises his ambitions with a very low profile, his excellent characteristics and outstanding personal abilities also make him extremely charismatic.

First of all, he has strong ambitions and knows exactly what he wants. He never hesitates, gets confused, or retreats. He can even endure and plan for this for years. Such perseverance and character are rare among ordinary people.

Second, he was highly self-disciplined. From an obscure minor official to a trusted minister of the First Emperor, the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, and even appointed by Emperor Ying Zheng as the tutor of the prince Hu Hai, what efforts did he make to earn Emperor Ying Zheng's praise, appreciation, and trust?

Zhao Gao was well versed in law, had excellent calligraphy, and was also an extraordinary driver.

Both Ying Zheng and Hu Hai recognized his diligence and affirmed his ability to get things done.

He also has an excellent appearance, a good figure and good looks, and even wearing a hat cannot hide his tall height.

Internally, he is knowledgeable, has a broad vision, and has unfathomable martial arts skills. He is smart and hardworking, good at planning, has first-class eloquence, and has a strong heart and insight.

In terms of talent and wisdom, he is not inferior to any influential figure in Qin's Moon.

This person's ambition, great ability and strong heart are what I think are his most charming qualities.

His arrogance is different from Ying Zheng's contempt for the world and Wei Zhuang's self-centeredness. He views all beings in the world as chess pieces to be manipulated in his palm. This contrasts with his feminine and humble appearance, making him even more charming.

He was like a knife tempered with deadly poison, slowly piercing the heart of the Qin Empire, causing the empire to sink forever. He was like a biting cold wind in winter, sweeping through everyone's heart, making people tremble from head to toe.

There was also Zhang Liang, who was good at judging the situation. Outside the Mohist city, he immediately pointed out that Qin Shi Huang wanted the various schools of thought to kill each other so that he could reap the benefits.

He is also extremely resourceful. He teaches Tianming how to use "perverse logic" to refute the famous scholars' "white horse is not a horse" theory. He persuades the Mohists to cooperate with "Liusha" on the basis of both righteousness and profit.

He was also extremely well-read and knowledgeable. He had some understanding of the Yin-Yang School and could recognize the hands of the Great God of Destiny. He was familiar with the Qin military system and advised the Mohists to retreat. He used the principle of pinhole imaging to watch the chess game between Tianming and Xunzi through the wall and used the reflection of a bronze mirror to guide Tianming's moves.

He was an outstanding chess player and had few rivals in Xiaoshengxianzhuang. He was on par with the military strategist Fan Zeng.

He possessed a rebellious spirit. He dared to break with traditional Confucian thought and assisted the Mohist school in its struggle against the Qin Dynasty. He possessed a strong sense of mission and responsibility, believing that "when something becomes a major event, no one can stay out of it, regardless of their willingness," and believed that "the people are more important than the king."

He remained calm and composed in the face of danger. He encountered the "Six Sword Slaves" several times, even challenging them to sword fights and discussions, but he always observed carefully and remained calm in the face of danger.

He was still young, so he occasionally showed radicalism and immaturity, and dared to go to extremes. He used several risky moves in the anti-Qin war. Although he was able to control the situation, he still planted certain hidden dangers for Confucianism and the anti-Qin alliance.

There are many other people who have unique personal charms, so I won’t list them all here.

Next up are the beauties Li Weidong admired in his past life. Being able to catch a glimpse of a goddess from the second dimension of his past life was a blessing for Li Weidong. Yan Lingji is a female villain in the world of Qin's Moon. After the fall of the Baiyue Kingdom, she was imprisoned in the cold palace by the Blood-Robed Marquis. Despite her tragic identity and situation, her beauty cannot be concealed. With her fiery red hair and clear eyes, coupled with her noble temperament and elegant manners, she is a dazzling beauty in Li Weidong's eyes.

Born in the State of Zhao, Snow Girl is an ice mage. She possesses a beautiful face as pure as ice and jade, and an ethereal and otherworldly temperament. Her beauty and purity make her a pure and charming beauty.

Born into the Korean royal family, Chi Lian is a charming and enchanting woman. With her fiery red hair and luscious red lips, coupled with her confident and wild personality, Chi Lian is a sexy beauty.

Duanmu Rong was born into a family of doctors and was a medical genius. She possessed a delicate and beautiful face and a gentle and considerate personality. She was a gentle and virtuous beauty.

Shao Siming is one of the five elders of the Yin-Yang School in the Qin's Moon universe and a peerless mage. Possessing a delicate and charming beauty and a carefree demeanor, coupled with her mysterious abilities, she possesses a noble and aloof beauty.

Da Siming is one of the five elders of the Yin-Yang School and a powerful mage. She possesses a captivating beauty and a voluptuous figure, coupled with her alluring voice and demeanor, making her both alluring and amorous.

Ji Ruqianlong, originally named Gao Yue, is a prominent character in Qin's Moon. She was once transformed into a silly yet adorable puppet by the Yin-Yang Cult. Later, with the help of Xiang Shaoyu and Jing Tianming, she regained her composure and subsequently trained even more powerfully under the Yin-Yang Cult's Bai Zihua. Later, under the tutelage of the strategist Guigu, she became one of the new heirs of the Eight Styles of Guigu. Despite her youth, she possesses an innocent personality, a kind heart, a gentle shyness, and a sweet, endearing manner.

Shi Lan is a mysterious and reserved beauty, captivating with her neatly cropped hair and well-proportioned figure. Shi Lan's beauty lies in her calmness and naturalness. A disciple of the Shushan School, she possesses exceptional skills and is adept at harnessing beasts. She possesses a profoundly reserved demeanor.

Zi Nu is a mature and steady woman, possessing a beautiful and elegant appearance and a graceful demeanor. She excels in swordsmanship and poison techniques, and is a core member of the Liusha organization. Her beauty and intelligence are undeniable.

Yan Fei is a strikingly beautiful woman, with flowing purple hair, clear eyes, and a face as exquisite as a painting. Her clothing is elegant, her figure graceful, and her demeanor exudes unparalleled grace. However, Yan Fei is more than just beautiful; she also possesses wisdom and courage within.

Xiao Meng, known as the "First Genius of Taoism," is a highly respected figure. She is slender, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, and possesses a refined and elegant appearance. She has long black hair, often tied back with a blue silk ribbon. Xiao Meng's eyes reveal intelligence and confidence, yet they also conceal a few unknown secrets.

Tian Yan is very beautiful and appears gentle and charming, but beneath this beautiful appearance, she hides a deep scheming and scheming. She is able to flexibly handle various complex interpersonal relationships, making friends and enemies, and can also calmly deal with various emergencies.

In addition to these characters, the one who impressed Li Weidong the most was Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School.

Putting aside other things, Li Weidong admired him for daring to call himself by this name. Not to mention Donghuang Taiyi from the Supreme World, even Donghuang Taiyi from the Primordial Origin World was a terrifyingly powerful figure. As the Donghuang of the demon clan, the name of such a figure could not be randomly given, otherwise people would be killed.

Isn't this a question of whether the boss cares about it or not?

But the names of these powerful figures have already been integrated into the Dao. Choosing random names will cause the Dao to backfire. Donghuang Taiyi of the Qin Dynasty was lucky to be alive. Perhaps it was because of the world's protection, or perhaps he was related to that powerful figure. But Li Weidong didn't care much about these things. As long as he entered the Qin World, he didn't want to provoke him. This would be a trouble for Li Weidong, and a big trouble. Who let him have the fragments of the Fortune Jade Butterfly? What if this Donghuang Taiyi was the powerful figure in the Origin World? Who knew he would rush over and snatch the fragments of the Fortune Jade Butterfly? By the way, he didn't dare to take the risk!

Why not bring Donghuang Taiyi into the real world when conquering the Qin world? Even if Donghuang Taiyi has some connection with that big guy, an ordinary intermediate world like the real world should not attract the big guy's attention. Even if it can devour other worlds, it will not attract the big guy's attention. After all, that big guy can create the universe in a blink of an eye, and the real world has just become an intermediate world, and it is still a long way from the universe!

After Li Weidong recruits people he likes into the small world, the Qin World will start the world war and integrate the erosion world into the small world and the real world.

Then there is the second world, which also interests Li Weidong very much. This world is the world under one person.

What interested Li Weidong the most were the eight unique skills.

The eight extraordinary skills are the Origin of Qi Body, Confinement of Spirits and Dispatching of Generals, Tongtian Talisman, Fenghou Qimen, Shuangquan Hands, Hundred Refinements of Divine Machines, Six Treasury Immortal Thieves, and Daluo Cave Observation.

The source of Qi uses a special method to cultivate an independent Qi body in the lower Dantian, which is called the "end of the technique" and is suspected to have an effect similar to that of a divine spirit.

The Soul-Keeping General can manipulate souls and harness some of their abilities for his own benefit. Before the Soul-Keeping General, any spirit must submit. Furthermore, the complete form of life is the combination of both physical and spiritual. A spirit existing in spirit form, no matter how powerful, is merely a fragment. The Soul-Keeping General exploits a spirit's hidden weaknesses, forcing it to obey him unconditionally. Regardless of the wizard's level of cultivation or the strength of their spirit, if they release their spirit before him, the Soul-Keeping General can forcibly wrest it from the opponent, forcing their obedience regardless of their will.

The Soul Constraint and General Commander also has a special ability - "Serving the Soul", which allows him to eat the soul and thus permanently strengthen himself, but the degree of strengthening is not as great as inviting the soul to possess him.

Tongtian Lu is the ultimate in talismanic power.

Traditional talismans need to be drawn in advance by the user, and when drawing a powerful talisman, it is often necessary to open an altar and do a lot of preparation in advance. A powerful talisman, even for a master of the Shangqing School who specializes in talismans, takes several hours to complete.

However, Tongtian Lu completely breaks this limitation. There is no need to set up an altar, circulate Qi, or do any preparation in advance. You can directly circulate Qi in the air to draw talismans, and use them as soon as you draw them. It takes a very short time and there is no limit on the number of talismans you can draw.

Fengmen Qihou is the ultimate of Qimen.

Everything in the world is inseparable from the word change, and Fengmen Qihou can control the changes of all things in the world.

With the center palace at one's feet, one can freely manipulate the four plates within the Qimen game. The user controls the time, space, and interactions between the four plates. Time can be precisely controlled, even allowing all four plates to return to their proper positions in a fraction of a second. As the user's skill improves, the scope of the Qimen game can be expanded.

There's also the ability to manipulate time—the Luanjinwei technique—which can place oneself or an opponent in a slower timeframe, slowing their movements to near-standstill, but preventing them from directly attacking. And there's the Turtle Fly Flow technique, which increases bodily function to multiples of normal at the cost of controlling the burning of life force. This technique, specifically created to aid the Luanjinwei technique, can significantly reduce the burning of life force, making the Luanjinwei technique even more powerful.

The form is similar to Wuhou Qimen. You set the center palace at a certain point and set up a Qimen magic array around you. Unlike Wuhou School, Fenghou Qimen can change the position of the pattern at will in the magic array, thus causing changes in things in the array. In Fenghou Qimen's understanding, time is just a scale to record the changes of things, so Fenghou users who master the changes in the array claim to have mastered time. Since Fenghou Qimen can turn the four plates at will, it is not necessary to stick to the arrangement of the pattern of the hour to cast spells arbitrarily.
