Swords emerge from Mount Hua, sweeping across the heavens from the world of Swordsman.

"Senior brother, you, you've finally come back to see us~" Ning Zhongze and the other two girls looked at the face they had been longing for and their eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Yue Zhuoqun moved swiftly and appeared in front of the three women, embracing them tightly in his arms: "You're back!"

More than thirty years have passed, but time has not left any marks on the three women's faces; they remain as radiant and beautiful as ever.

Not long after, Yue Xuan, Yue Lingshan, Yang Lin, Linghu Chong and others also rushed over, cutting through the sky.

"Daddy!"

"Master!"

Each of them was visibly moved, their eyes filled with tears.

Their martial arts skills had reached a very high level at this time.

Unfortunately, limited by the world, it is difficult to break through the innate limitations.

The news of Yue Zhuoqun's return did not spread widely; only those close to him knew about it.

He spent his days on the Cliff of Contemplation, with his family and disciples, and passed on the Supreme Longevity Technique, instructing them in martial arts.

The Supreme Longevity Cultivation Technique can transform acquired internal energy into innate true essence. Only after cultivating this technique can one have the possibility of breaking through to the innate level.

Upon returning this time, Yue Zhuoqun clearly felt the scarcity and barrenness of the Laughing World, which was a major obstacle to breaking through to higher realms.

After a few days of excitement, Yue Zhuoqun summoned the system: "System, is there a way to change this environment?"

I hate you.

[The host can purchase spiritual veins and place them in the mountains to enhance the concentration of spiritual energy in the world. Spiritual roots are rare treasures and need to be exchanged using luck points.]

Yue Zhuoqun opened the store panel and found that a lot of new items had been added to this category.

Previously, the most precious item was the He Shi Bi, which was worth 500 luck points.

Now, there are also items like Blood Bodhi, Spirit Vein, Auspicious Beast Blood, Auspicious Beast, Demon Emperor Relic, and Dragon Vein, but the listed prices left him dumbfounded.

Blood Bodhi, 200 luck points per piece.

Fire Kirin Blood, 600 Luck Points per jar.

Phoenix Blood, 1000 Luck Points per jar.

Xuan Turtle Blood, 1000 Luck Points per jar.

Dragon blood, one jar costs 2000 luck points.

Low-grade spiritual root, 800 luck points.

Medium-grade spiritual root, 5000 luck value.

Superior spiritual root, 10000 luck points.

Demon Emperor's Relic, 500 Luck Points.

Dragon Vein, 5000 luck value.

Fire Qilin, 2000 Luck Points...

We still need to continue completing tasks and work hard to accumulate points.

Fortunately, we can now open the portal to different realms, making it easier to visit family across different worlds. We can put the matter of buying spiritual roots on hold for now.

He spent two months living with Ning Zhongze and others in the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer, and then stayed in the world of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber for a while before embarking on a new journey.

The void twisted, and a seven-colored light enveloped his body. Half an hour later, he appeared in a mountain stronghold.

As soon as he arrived in this world, he felt his body sink and his flesh was subjected to an extremely strong pressure.

The void of this world is several times thicker than that of the Tianlong world, seemingly solid and unbreakable.

However, his connection with the heavens and earth was noticeably more active, with rich spiritual energy surging into his body.

He secretly activated his Qi and was surprised to find that the range of his Qi merging into the void was still forty meters, but the power of heaven and earth contained within it was much greater than that of the Heavenly Dragon World.

Their combat strength has not only not weakened, but has actually become stronger.

But breaking through the void has become even more difficult; he can no longer even distort the void at this moment.

[Ding! You have transmigrated to the world of Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty. Assigning an identity to the host...]

[Identity successfully set. Guest retainer of Wagang Village, known as one of the Three Heroes of Wagang alongside Xu Shiji and Zu Junyan.]

[Current Situation: The Sui Dynasty court is in chaos, heroes are rising up across the land, and the Turkic invaders are eyeing the region covetously; great turmoil is imminent. Li Mi has led his followers to Wagang, intending to seize Zhai Rang's position as chieftain.]

[Main Quest Issued: Pacify the world, gather fortune, and refine your martial arts.]

Yue Zhuoqun quickly understood his current situation.

It is now the twelfth year of the Daye era of the Sui Dynasty, and Li Mi has just joined Wagang Village.

With his unparalleled martial arts skills, Li Mi had already helped Wagang Village subdue several nearby rebel armies and different forces, increasing Wagang Village's strength several times over and allowing it to initially establish a foothold in Wagang.

Although he gained the reputation of being one of the Three Heroes of Wagang with the help of the system, he was still a guest advisor and his influence was far less than that of Li Mi.

To complete the mission, one must surpass Li Mi and become the leader of Wagang.

Wagang is definitely a great place to start a business.

Not only did they possess considerable strength, but they also occupied the intersection of the Yellow River and the Grand Canal, allowing them to develop themselves by seizing military supplies transported by the canal.

However, this is only temporary. Relying on plundered resources is like a rootless duckweed, which cannot last long. To solve the long-term food and resource problems, it is necessary to further expand territory.

Xingyang is the best target.

Taking Xingyang would not only allow us to occupy a large area of ​​fertile land, but also threaten Luoyang, the eastern capital, and even control the connection between the three major military strongholds of Luoyang, the capital, and Jiangdu.

Li Mi gained the power to overthrow Zhai Rang through this method.

Now, he must get ahead of Li Mi and make this plan happen.

Chapter 159 Wagang, the Beautiful Military Advisor

Zhai Rang has been riding high for the past six months. Since Li Mi joined him, the Wagang Army has greatly increased its strength and has already laid the foundation for conquering the world.

However, a sense of unease soon followed, as Li Mi's prominence was subtly overshadowing his position as the chieftain.

The brothers in the mountain stronghold talked about how powerful the second-in-command was every day, and had long forgotten about the first-in-command.

In time, Li Mi will surely seize the position of chieftain.

However, Wagang occupied the river transport routes and plundered government grain transport, which angered Yang Guang. He appointed Zhang Xutuo as the governor of Xingyang to suppress the Wagang army.

Zhang Xutuo was renowned in both the imperial court and the martial arts world. He was known for his "Wild Wind" spear technique and was hailed as the number one spearman of his time. He was arrogant and brave.

Previously, he had led troops to defeat several rebel armies led by Wang Bo, Pei Shi, Guo Fangyu, and Zuo Xiaoyou for the Sui Dynasty.

Moreover, besides himself, his two generals Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin were also exceptionally brave.

After he led his troops to Xingyang, the Wagang Army was killed every time they encountered him, and they fled in disarray, making Zhai Rang fear him like a tiger.

Therefore, even though Zhai Rang knew that Li Mi was ambitious and a great threat, he dared not take action against him and could only entrust him with important responsibilities.

At that moment, he was worrying in the main hall when he saw Yue Zhuoqun, dressed in a Taoist robe and with a handsome and refined face, walk in.

A hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes.

Yue Zhuoqun was known as one of the three heroes of Wagang, entirely because of his profound knowledge of Taoism and the relationship between heaven and man; he never displayed any other abilities.

When Yue Zhuoqun came looking for him, he assumed that Yue wanted to discuss Taoism with him.

He was an ambitious man; why would he be interested in this? He felt utterly bored.

However, the annoyance in his eyes quickly disappeared, and he smiled and said, "Mr. Yue, I have been worried about the situation in Wagang these past few days and have not had time to talk to you about Taoist practices. Why don't you go find Mr. Xu? The two of you should be able to have a good conversation."

Yue Zhuoqun laughed and said, "Chief, you misunderstand. I am not here to discuss philosophy, but because I know you are troubled, I have come to offer some advice."

"Oh?" Zhai Rang's interest was piqued. "Does the master know what's troubling me?"

"It's nothing more than Zhang Xutuo and Chief Li Er."

Zhai Rang's eyes narrowed, and for the first time he seriously observed Yue Zhuoqun. After a long while, he said, "Sir, what can you do to relieve my worries?"

"Take Xingyang!"

"Hehe, that Zhang Xutuo is incredibly brave and fierce, Wagang avoids him like the plague, so how could we possibly provoke him?"

"Although Zhang Xutuo is brave, he is reckless and lacks strategy, so he is not a threat. If Wagang can capture Xingyang, build up military camps and valleys, and once their army is strong and well-equipped, they will not only be safe from Li Mi, but can also conquer the world."

Upon hearing this, Zhai Rang's heart pounded; it was indeed a brilliant plan.

"However, besides his own formidable martial arts skills, Zhang Xutuo's two generals, Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin, are also formidable opponents. It will not be easy to defeat these three."

Yue Zhuoqun's lips curled up: "The chieftain can give me an army, and I will defeat them."

"You?" Zhai Rang's face subconsciously showed disdain.

But the next second, he felt a powerful aura emanating from Yue Zhuoqun, making him gasp for breath, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses:

"Sir, you've been in Wagang for so long, and I never realized you were such a top-notch expert."

His eyes flickered, and he fell into deep thought:

Yue Zhuoqun has been hiding his talents for so long; he's probably just as ambitious as Li Mi.

However, if we could support Yue Zhuoqun and create a check and balance between him and Li Mi, that would be a good approach.
