I gather power with my gift of God and build the heaven.

"Wang Dahu, Zhou Lanying"

"exist!"

"You lead the Western Army, march out of Turpan, capture Kazakhstan and Yarkand, and then attack U-Tsang in the south.

Hong Chengchou, Zhou Lanying

You will lead your troops westward to recapture Dogandusi.

Cooperate with the General of the Western Expedition to recapture the U-Tsang Prefecture."

"I will obey your order. After returning, I will immediately mobilize the troops and sweep across all the countries."

As orders were issued one after another, a general took charge.

During the entire process, no tactical research was conducted.

The dynasty and the general staff only formulated the general strategy and told them where to conquer.

As for how to fight, that is the responsibility of the generals of each army.

In fact, with the current combat effectiveness of the Celestial Empire’s army, there is basically no need for any tactics; they can just push forward.

In the 4340th year of the Yellow Emperor's calendar, the 7th year of the Celestial Empire, and the 1643rd year of the Western calendar, the Celestial Empire sent troops on all sides.

"Ang~!"

The golden dragon of the Celestial Empire's national destiny roared passionately, and the national destiny between heaven and earth boiled, instantly blessing all directions and began to spread outwards, showing extremely strong offensiveness.

Upon seeing this scene, the rulers of the surrounding countries immediately felt shocked.

"finally come."

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong looked far to the south, watching the overwhelming national destiny pressing towards them. For a moment, they felt hopeless and as if they had lost their parents.

How to do?How to do?

escape!

This was their first thought. As for resistance, they did not dare to do so at the beginning.

Now, with the rapid development of the Celestial Empire, it is like installing rocket boosters, flying in the sky and swimming in the water, it can be said to be omnipotent, and they have no courage to resist.

However, they have already gone out to sea, where can they escape to?

Should we continue to head north or east?

They also explored the north, where the weather was cold and the area was covered with ice and snow for half of the year, making it unsuitable for large populations to live.

As for the east, there is the vast ocean, at least there are no land or islands that they have explored.

However, if they did not do so, their only option would be to surrender and join the Celestial Empire.

However, as the rulers of a country, they were used to it, and they were always reluctant to join the Celestial Empire and be humble.

Although now, they are still inferior to the Celestial Empire.

However, in their own territory, they are the ones who have the final say.

It can even be said that even the civil and military ministers were not very willing to do so.

After all, officials at all levels in the Celestial Empire are supervised by heaven and earth, with various constraints and restrictions, but they do not have the various privileges of other countries.

How could they, who are used to enjoying privileges, be willing to join the Celestial Empire, which has all kinds of constraints and restrictions?

In the end, Li Zicheng decided to head north. Although it was not very suitable for living and survival there, it was still a place to stay, right?

With today's human physical fitness, especially the military, who are composed of soldiers who have mastered powerful true qi, life in those places is difficult, but not completely impossible to survive.

Once they get there, they can think of other solutions.

Zhang Xianzhong wanted to lead his men to take a detour to the south.

He had heard that there was a place called Luzon in the south. Although it was ruled by the Western barbarians, various forces were entrenched there and there was no truly unified regime or country.

In that case, it is not impossible for him to establish a country there.

However, it was not easy for him to transport troops there.

The truth is that although Atlantis has a population of over one million and is an island country, it does not have many long-distance transport ships.

After all, with the development of the Celestial Empire, the liberalization of maritime trade, the decentralization of steamships, and Li Shu's patrols of the sea borders, the sea became very safe.

Many merchants along the coast began to go out to sea to trade.

The relatively close Daxi Kingdom and Dashun Kingdom were naturally the main targets of the transaction.

In this way, naturally a large number of merchants will come, and people from their countries will be able to obtain a large amount of cheap goods from the Celestial Empire without having to go out to sea.

Under such circumstances, the shipbuilding industry of Atlantis naturally fell into a near stagnation.

Where could he organize so many ships at such a short time?

In the end, even with all the ships, big and small, they could only take away 10,000 to 20,000 people.

Moreover, this is the case of full staffing and excess carry.

In this situation, if anything goes wrong in the vast ocean, the ship will be destroyed and people will die.

In fact, the optimal number of people to carry is 5,000.

But how could he occupy Luzon with such a small army?

Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

He has lived a life of luxury and affluence for many years, and if he were asked to start over again, he would no longer have such high aspirations.

Looking through the golden dragon of national destiny at the many civilians and slaves of the Great Western Kingdom, Zhang Xianzhong's eyes flashed with ferocity.

In that case, don't blame him.

On the other hand, Li Zicheng, although a little bitter about having to leave his homeland, was mentally prepared and still had some spirit.

At the beginning, after Li Shu harvested the dragon energy of Dashun Kingdom, he was already prepared to leave.

Therefore, Li Zicheng's Dashun Kingdom did not stop the development of shipbuilding and navigation like Zhang Xianzhong's Dashi Kingdom, but instead invested a lot of energy in it.

With the ships they have accumulated now, if they are fully utilized, they can definitely carry 200,000 to 300,000 people.

As soon as he discovered that the Celestial Empire was preparing to expand, he began to discuss with his civil and military officials and prepared for immigration.

When the Celestial Empire was preparing to send troops, Li Zicheng was also preparing to emigrate. When the Celestial Empire started to send troops, he had already led his fleet northward.

When Li Shu led his army to the vicinity of the Great Western Kingdom, the overwhelming military morale and national fortune spread. The fortune of the Great Western Kingdom was immediately affected and quickly became turbulent, as if it was about to collapse.

Feeling this scene, a gleam of blood flashed in Zhang Xianzhong's eyes.

"You forced me to do this. You forced me to do this.

Hehehe."

With a grim sneer, Zhang Xianzhong's mind was suddenly focused on the golden dragon of national destiny.

In an instant, a hint of blood spread above the golden dragon of national destiny, and then spread to the entire Great Western Kingdom with national destiny as the medium.

Seeing this scene, Li Shu, who was just about to go to the Great Western Kingdom to reap another wave of national dragon energy, couldn't help but frown slightly.

I wonder what happened in Daxi Kingdom? Or what is Zhang Xianzhong going crazy about? What does he want to do?

Could it be that he still wants to confront the Celestial Empire?

Li Shu couldn't help but have an idea. Dozens of warships were connected with each other and formed a large formation in an instant. A thousand-foot-high green dragon was circling, and the vast pressure spread across the sky and looked towards the direction of the Great Western Kingdom.

If Zhang Xianzhong didn't know what was good for him, he would definitely not mind slapping him to death.

Looking at the thousand-foot-high blue dragon in the distance, Zhang Xianzhong completely lost the courage to resist.

But

Zhang Xianzhong was furious and thought, if that was the case, no one would have an easy time.

"Om~!"

In an instant, boundless blood covered the entire Great Western Kingdom. Boundless negative emotions rose in the hearts of all the people in the Great Western Kingdom. They disliked everyone, and violence and murderous intent rose.

As a country neighboring Japan, how could Zhang Xianzhong not study the strange aura that enveloped the entire Japan?

Although he did not develop any profound powers or magic methods, he did improve his own strength in the process.

He even developed a secret method to deeply integrate himself with the dragon energy of a country's destiny, fundamentally control the people of a country, and strengthen himself with the spirit of all citizens.

However, this method has great disadvantages.

Once executed, though he would gain super powers and near immortality.

However, he will also completely lose his human form, and even his mind will be greatly affected.

If one is not careful, he will go completely crazy or even die.

He would never resort to such means unless it was absolutely necessary.

But now, facing the threat from Li Shu of the Celestial Empire, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but become furious.

Today, I will stop being a human being.

As blood covered the sky and earth, all the negative emotions in everyone's heart exploded rapidly like a raging fire.

Gradually, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore and attacked the others.

In an instant, crazy fighting and fighting broke out.

Everyone attacked the people around them recklessly. One after another fell down, and the horrific killing began.

Fresh blood slowly flowed out, and under the illumination of the red light that spread across the sky and earth, it gradually changed its form and merged into it.

Endless negative forces grew, most of which gathered towards the people who killed them, and the remaining purer spiritual forces were also integrated into the red light.

This made the red light that spread throughout the sky and earth even more intense.

What Li Shu saw through Qinglong's vision was such a chaotic fighting scene, which made him a little confused and he didn't understand why Zhang Xianzhong did this.

As time went by, more and more people began to die.

One thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million.

In the end, there was often only one person left alive in a village, town, or region.

And all around them, there was an endless negative force. Ferocious and ferocious ghosts with bared fangs and claws were wandering around them, roaring silently with hatred at them.

On the other side, Zhang Xianzhong's mind moved slightly, and endless dragon energy of the country's destiny, wrapped in a sky full of red light, began to roll back rapidly and continuously injected into his body.

With the infusion of this enormous force, all kinds of negative thoughts and remnants began to constantly impact his spirit.

Even through some operations, most of the negative emotional power of those fighting people gathered around the people who killed them.

But the remaining small part was still terrifying. If it weren't for the gradual reduction of the country's dragon energy, his mental will would probably have been crushed in an instant.

But even so, he was not feeling well, and all kinds of negative emotions continued to grow in his heart.

Some people told him to just give up, and some told him to just fight his way out and fight Li Shu and the others, but most of them were filled with endless hatred and resentment.

In addition, there were countless people who were killed by him and countless subordinates who were harmed by him. They all turned into evil ghosts and roared ferociously and resentfully.

"Zhang Xianzhong, give me back my life."

"Zhang Xianzhong, you have such a cruel heart. We were so loyal to you, but you ended up killing us."

"Zhang Xianzhong, you will not die well"

"Zhang Xianzhong"

The resentful curses turned into the most ferocious negative force, constantly attacking and eroding Zhang Xianzhong's mind.

This caused Zhang Xianzhong's mind to waver and he almost lost control of his mind. He was eroded by the endless remnants of his consciousness and turned into a confused demon.

At the same time, as more and more power was poured into his body, it slowly became unable to bear it. His entire body swelled, veins popped out, his eyes bulged out, and his skin turned scarlet as if it was bleeding.

"Ugh!"

Boundless pain surged into his heart, and Zhang Xianzhong couldn't help but roar in pain. His hands clenched into fists and his teeth chattered.

However, the pain from the body did divert the impact of the consciousness from the mind, allowing it to barely hold on.

“Die, die, die. I was able to kill you before, and I can do the same now.

They are all the dead souls of my subordinates, so don’t ever think about turning over, just die and suppress them.”

With the outburst of spiritual will, countless negative consciousnesses and ghosts of dead people were suppressed one after another.

Li Shu, who saw all this clearly, couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what was Zhang Xianzhong doing?

What? Are you tired of being a king and want to destroy yourself? Or do you want to break through to a higher realm by relying on the lives of the people of your country?

Just, is this possible?

Without coming into contact with the rules and understanding the mysteries of the rules of heaven and earth, never think about truly reaching the realm of supernatural powers.

Even if he was forced to break through, he would only be a cripple.

When faced with a true realm of magical power, you will just be crushed by others, which doesn't make much sense at all.

He wanted to see what Zhang Xianzhong wanted to do and how far he could achieve.

As time passed, wounds began to appear on Zhang Xianzhong's body, and blood gushed out.

Soon, a small river of blood formed under Zhang Xianzhong's feet and quickly spread to the surrounding area.

One meter, two meters, four meters.

It soon covered an area of more than ten meters, far exceeding a person's normal blood volume.

However, the amount of blood flowing from Zhang Xianzhong's body not only did not decrease, but instead increased as the number of wounds on his body increased.

By the end, there was no intact part of his body, and blood was flowing out like a faucet.

Finally, there was a sound of flesh being torn.

"Hey!"

Bone wounds began to appear on Zhang Xianzhong's body, and one could even see his internal organs.

"puff!"

I don’t know if it was because the heart was pumping blood too hard, but there was a sudden dull sound, like a bag of blood exploding.

Zhang Xianzhong suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his brain was dizzy and he was about to fall down.

At this moment, the remaining person closest to Zhang Xianzhong suddenly felt his heart explode. Endless blood-colored energy mixed with the dragon energy of national destiny gushed out and instantly dissolved his body.

In the end, his entire body turned into a blood shadow. The negative forces surrounding his body and the ghosts of the people he killed were instantly swallowed up and merged by him.

Immediately afterwards, it suddenly flew into the air, flew to where Zhang Xianzhong was, and merged into the blood river under his feet.
