Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

The appearance of Shennong's phantom made the Human Emperor, who was outside the courtyard considering sneaking into the secret realm, suddenly stand up.

When Xuanyuan turned around, he saw the emerald green gate to the secret realm gradually turning into pure gold.

"Shennong!"

Xuanyuan was overjoyed.

With Shennong's help, this little soldier lord is laughable.

The warlord narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his gaze.

However, the Lord of War was not blinded by joy like the Emperor of Man.

"The earth's veins are practical; he shouldn't appear in the world so soon."

The warlord thought to himself.

"Unless... after the Buddhist realm is rebuilt, the emperor or his ministers take the elixirs from the Shennong tribe."

"Or we should feed the emperor some ancient and rare poison."

"This might be the only way to hasten his rebirth."

The warlord looked in the direction of the Poison Path and pondered inwardly.

He was awakened because he helped the dynasty destroy Tubo, which is why the earth veins paid special attention to him.

Similarly, the Xuanyuan clan initially only experienced unusual phenomena at Qiaoshan.

It was the subsequent wealth of the Xuanyuan clan, coupled with the emperor's desire to find the Xuanyuan Sword.

It was only under the emperor's influence that the earth's veins awakened the Xuanyuan clan.

The nature of the earth's veins is determined by the emperor.

They were very pragmatic; whoever helped the dynasty the most was the one they would awaken.

This time, the powerful figures from both the Buddhist and Taoist sects were awakened, thanks to the ancestral weapons of the Taoist and Buddhist sects, which contributed to the battle in the Buddhist Extinction Domain.

Similarly, the ancient demonic sects also benefited from the influence of the local demonic race.

The demonic sects awakened by the earth's veins are not particularly wicked; at most, they have some mental issues.

Only people like this can be more easily fooled by the emperor into serving him like a beast of burden.

Another characteristic of the earth's veins is their martial spirit, and not just ordinary martial virtue.

Xuanyuan is undoubtedly the first ancestor of the Huaxia people.

However, the choice of the ley lines is that the Lord of War is awakened first, which shows the ley lines' pursuit of martial power.

A pragmatic yet martial spirit is what makes the soldiers of the Myriad Calamities Demon Abyss, who are currently being tempered in the Thunder Pool at the Xuanjia barracks, so remarkable.

Thinking about this, the military leader felt that if necessary, he should urge the imperial court to make a greater effort and stop slacking off.

If the ministers knew what the warlord was thinking at this moment, they might just hang themselves with a white silk ribbon.

They've already worked like oxen and horses, and they're still lazy?

Moreover, not only did they scold them for being lazy, but they also planned to continue feeding them pills?

Are we just feeding the pigs here, waiting to slaughter them?

What's even more unsettling is that even though the emperor is reprimanding them, they can still use the pretext of offering advice to teach the emperor a lesson in return.

After the old ancestor, the Master of War, said that, they could only suffer like submissive wives.

It would be better to hang yourself with a white silk ribbon.

"Haha, just you wait."

Xuanyuan looked at the silent Lord of War, sat back down, and stared at him with a provocative expression.

"The earth's veins are practical and martial."

The warlord poured a bucket of cold water on the head of the Xuanyuan clan.

"what?"

Xuanyuan was bewildered. What did this have to do with being pragmatic and martial?

Outside the secret realm, the reactions of the War Lord and the Xuanyuan Clan differed.

......

Herbal Spirit Realm

Inside the secret realm, Bei Men Yue slightly raised her head, looking at the phantom of Shennong.

Not far behind Bei Menyue, the others tacitly refrained from approaching.

Among them, Li Junsu looked at Shennong Shi with some surprise in his heart.

There was not a trace of supreme authority emanating from Shennong.

Even someone as benevolent as Xuanyuan Shi always possessed a terrifying aura emanating from him.

However, the Emperor only displayed this power to his enemies.

But Shennong had none of that; he possessed no imposing presence whatsoever.

As soon as Shennong appeared, he looked at Beimen Yue in front of him and slowly squatted down.

Do you want to learn the ways of pharmacology?

Shennong looked straight at the moon over the North Gate, getting straight to the point, his tone full of gentle smiles.

He had a lot to say, but there wasn't enough time.

This ancestor's voice was like a clear spring, making listeners feel their consciousness clear and their hearts enlightened.

"I think."

Bei Men Yue looked at Shennong Shi and nodded firmly.

"it is good."

Shennong looked into Beimen Yue's eyes as if he saw through everything, and his figure disappeared with a smile.

The figure transformed into a bluish-gold radiance, gradually encircling Beimen Yue.

Afterwards, the Heavenly Demon Palace token at the waist of the North Gate Princess was bathed in a cyan-gold glow.

The original two characters "天魔" (Heavenly Demon) were changed to the ancient two characters "神农" (Shennong).

Shennong directly copied the method of lodging used by the Demon Lord and moved into Beimen Yue's token.

But in the next instant, the token, which had been shining brightly, gradually became dim.

Li Junsu strode forward and grasped the token before it completely dimmed.

The token was enveloped in a pale golden aura of the earth's veins.

"Thank you, but I suppose you don't like my great path, so... I won't teach it to you."

In Li Junsu's mind, Shennong's voice rang out shyly.

Shennong did not stand on ceremony, even though Li Junsu's merits were as immense as the earth's veins.

But that murderous aura, coupled with the Nine Li military token, made Shennong realize that the other party looked down on his path.

After all, Jiang You felt that he had power but didn't know how to use it, and he was disappointed in him, which is why he left the Shennong tribe.

“My ancestor is joking. I have walked the path of killing, but I admire your selfless dedication.”

Li Junsu replied politely while using the earth's energy to nourish the token.

"Really?"

Shennong was somewhat surprised.

"Absolutely no lies."

Li Junsu's words made Shennong's eyebrows curve into a smile.

"Boss, what's going on?"

Looking at the figure so close to her, Bei Menyue felt a blush gradually rise from her neck to her cheeks.

too close.

"The earth's veins awaken the ancestors of humanity; this is not a one-time event."

"When the Lord of War appeared in the spitting bowl, he quickly disappeared as well."

"It was only in the lands of the Jiuli tribe that it truly came into being."

"The same is true of the Human Emperor. There were strange phenomena at Qiaoshan first, and then the Human Emperor appeared in the world."

"Shennong should be the same, except that the earth's veins seem to be warlike, and the birth of the ancestor Shennong was only for a moment."

"If we give more to the earth's veins, they should be able to survive to this day."

After saying this, Li Junsu slowly released his grip.

Sure enough, the token was no longer dull, but was now emitting a faint glow.

Li Junsu also discovered that the supreme beings awakened by the earth's veins were all skilled warriors.

Lord of War, Emperor of Man, Supreme Demon, God of Zhongshan.

Every single one of them was a formidable warrior.

Conversely, those who dedicate themselves to healing the sick and saving lives are unlikely to be awakened.

Besides Shennong, there are also the Medicine King Liuli Buddha of Buddhism and the Eastern Qinghua Emperor of Taoism, who are similar.

In contrast, although Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is known for his compassion in helping people, his methods are by no means soft.

Those who dare to directly capture hellish demons as protectors are more than just bold.

The same applies to the Emperor of Longevity; although he can help people prolong their lives, he also possesses the method of achieving immortality himself.

But compared to these, his Divine Thunder Technique is unparalleled in the world.

The Emperor of Longevity is in charge of lifespan and is also a formidable fighter.

The preference for awakening may be related to the prevailing social atmosphere of the dynasty.

The Great Qian Dynasty was an extremely martial dynasty.

Even Li Bai, a poet with the reputation of being a banished immortal, could write about the barbarians and the Xia Daochang.

This shows just how martial the dynasty itself was.

"How could your meager earth vein energy possibly retain the ancestor of humanity?"

Suddenly, the voice of the Demon Lord rang in Li Junsu's mind.

"Is there something wrong?"

Li Junsu sensed Shennong gradually falling into slumber within the North Gate Moon Token, his voice tinged with doubt.

"No, it was you who chose to keep Shennong, allowing the earth's veins to slowly strengthen him."

"You have some influence over the earth's veins."

The Demon Lord's tone was tinged with envy.

They are all living beings of heaven and earth, and some are even favored by the earth's veins.

Some powerful individuals, even supreme beings, are struck by lightning simply for stepping outside.
