Origin Paradise!

Legendary arcane arts do not refer to attacks comparable to those of a legendary being, but rather to arcane arts created by a legendary being.

The echoes reverberate through the mountains, originating from the fallen Emperor Taizong of the empire a century ago. He met his end in the war of annihilation, and before his death, he barely managed to return to the empire's borders. His bones shattered like foam, leading to the creation of the largest salt-producing area.

Click!

The echoing mountains shattered the sword captain's attack, its power undiminished, and completely cleaved him in two.

Without even glancing at it, Yan Jun suppressed the soreness in his arms, quickly turned around, and took the scroll from his waist.

hum!

Upon witnessing the legendary secret technique, General Tianshui surprisingly chose to take action himself. His sword strike, swift as a flash of light, cleaved the hill in two with its aftershocks.

clang!

Salt Lord unfurled the scroll, and an armored warrior appeared, his heavy shield firmly blocking the secret technique, Heavenly Water and Misty Rain.

"The King's Attendant..."

General Tianshui's expression darkened. It was rumored that Emperor Taizong had an incomparably powerful imperial guard, all of whom were ordinary heroes. However, due to the Battle of Annihilation, this royal puppet guard disappeared without a trace. He never expected to see it here today.

Yan Jun was clearly a descendant of Emperor Taizong.

Only such a halo could challenge the hereditary rule of the Western Kingdom for thousands of years.

Whoohoo!

A strong wind suddenly rose.

Three figures descended from the sky, surrounding Tian Shui General.

The head of the Fu family sneered: "How can we not avenge a single sword strike?"

“His Majesty is young, and the Tianshui Army should not belong to the Western Kingdom’s Royal Palace,” the Yan family head said with a smile. “It would be better if the various families joined forces to manage it.”

The Venerable Wan Sai sighed, "Why not surrender?"

Because he kept a tiger, he became a menace and was trapped in a deadly situation.

General Tianshui laughed in fury, "You bunch of traitors, do you think I would surrender!"

boom!

He took the initiative to attack Salt Lord. The situation had changed, and the imperial family might actually tacitly allow the successor of Emperor Taizong to act as the governor of the western border.

In a short time, war broke out.

……

The empire's millennium, mid-May.

The main city of Qingyu has fallen, and Qianniu Gong has been killed in action.

The leader of the White Snake Group publicly declared that the royal palace was unjust, treacherous officials were in power, and chaos was rampant. He therefore called himself the King Who Pacifies Chaos, and declared that he should use his sword to eliminate the trouble caused by the emperor's inner circle.

In the northern part of the province, various rebel forces responded one after another.

The White Snake leader found the treasure hidden beneath Qingyu City and obtained ten immortal warships bearing the Heavenly Craftsmanship emblem, as well as hundreds of supreme-class warships. Meanwhile, the Jing clan claimed that the Yu clan's epic-class warship had gone missing, suspected to have been stolen by rebels.

At the same time, news of the attack on the elite Tianshui army and the fall of the Tianshui general swept across the north and south of Cangwu Province.

With the loss of their elite troops and the fall of Qingyu City, the Cangwu Province was declared lost.

The military governor of Tianshui led his remaining troops out of the province and stationed them at the Tianshui Fortress, which borders Cangwu.

In just one day, the rebels in Fengtian revived, and many forces that had previously been observing the situation joined the fray.

May 18th.

The secret letters from the heroes were sent to Qingyu City, all blank. They were sent by the Heavenly King Yan Jun to invite the King of Pacification to a banquet to celebrate the grand occasion. The location was chosen to be Hongmen County, between Qingyu City and Fufeng County. Yan Jun said that he would define the roles of each department and formulate the next attack strategy at the banquet.

Qingyu City, Si Family's Separate Residence.

This courtyard was once a residence gifted by the Old Madam Si for worship. Now the Old Madam Si has long since passed away, and the Si family is no longer prosperous. When Jiang He returned here, the surfaces of the utensils were covered with a thin layer of dust.

"Your Majesty, you absolutely mustn't go!" the young marquis said fearfully. "What if we're killed?"

In the courtyard, the head of the Jing family and the Supreme Master of the Heavenly Craftsmanship sipped tea together. Both were heroes who had fought on the front lines. The former spoke slowly and deliberately:

“If we don’t go, we’ll be cutting ourselves off from the Fengtian Army. Seventy percent of the military supplies may not be that important, but other forces certainly won’t sit idly by and watch their unsuspecting targets grow stronger.”

The unspoken meaning of the Jing family head was simple: the Fengtian Army was a collective of local will, and only this collective could stand against the central government. Individually, even the powerful Jing family would face certain death if they dared to rebel. Only by working together could they have a chance of winning.

"Your Majesty, please be careful."

"Currently in the court, the prime minister's faction remains silent, roughly half advocate war to quell the rebellion, while the other half are requesting the removal of the Western King, whose influence in the Western region has been considerable."

The Supreme Master of the Heavenly Crafts was in a dilemma. If he didn't go, he and the Heavenly Crafts Sect would inevitably have to sever ties with the King of Peace and Chaos. The Yanrao Rebellion was essentially a local retaliation against the central government. But if someone really foolishly raised their own banner and even thought they could defeat the empire, the heroes and powerful figures of the central government wouldn't mind taking a publicly funded trip.

The reason why the western border is allowed to fall into chaos is simply because these heroes and the local people have intricate connections of interest. Behind the suppression of rebellions and uprisings, they are actually people who see each other all the time.

The attitudes of the two heroes basically represent the officers at all levels of the White Snake Group today.

Dougs remained silent, turning his head to watch the young man sitting on the steps drinking, who seemed not to care much about the matter.

"Then go."

Jiang He casually remarked, "The place name is quite auspicious."

The head of the Jing family and the Supreme Master of the Heavenly Crafts both breathed a sigh of relief. There were factions within the rebel army, and Jiang Wuyang was better able to realize his own interests. For the Heavenly Crafts Sect, the more capable the White Serpent Fleet was, the higher the sales of the warships would be.

Jiang He pondered for a moment. He had used the tactic of holding meetings many times before, and this time it was his turn.

In theory, Salt King shouldn't have resorted to violence, but if he were the host, he would definitely kill him.

The banquet was scheduled for dusk three days later. The distance from Qingyu City to Hongmen County was not too far, so Jiang He simply ordered, "Send all the cannonballs from each unit to me."

"Take all of Yuanjin's reserves."

"Aya, tell Old Black to have the Duke come over."

"Twenty immortal warships and three hundred supreme warships gathered and landed at the Si family ruins at the gate."

"The Evil Guards will continue to collect cultivation techniques."

After issuing a series of orders, the two heroes took their leave. Jiang He had ten large boxes brought over, and used the power of Gluttony to refine the source gold inside for cultivation.

At the same time, the large number of rare and exotic fruits plundered can speed up the process. If source gold is a universal and basic cultivation resource, then all kinds of rare treasures are the key to widening the gap between scions of noble families and ordinary source power cultivators.

In addition, he also received a special title when he proclaimed himself the King Who Pacifies the Rebellion.

[Note: Your Undying title, Marquis of Suppression, has been upgraded to Epic title, King of Suppression. You gain an additional 3 Charisma points. Upon entering the corresponding Tier 4 world, you will receive the initial identity: King of Suppression. Your Spiritual Talent, King's Might, will be amplified, severely impacting ordinary golden beings.]

[Hint: You have cultivated a second Solar Source Crystal. The energy property, Burning, has been upgraded to Undying Level 30. Energy value +2000, Strength, Constitution, and Agility values ​​+1, Core value Charisma +3 (Source Crystal Enhancement)]

[Energy Value: 61000]

[Strength: 48+2→49+2]

[Agility: 48+2 → 49+2]

[Constitution: 48+2→49+2]

[Spirit: 50+2]

[Charm: 56+8→59+11]

Jiang He remained silent, her face expressionless.

He felt a barrier in his mind, but not in his charisma.

"Something's not right, there's definitely something wrong."

"This is simply the rate at which lust grows."

Jiang He examined himself and found nothing. For now, he even started to consider finding a few attractive techniques.

The White Serpent Fleet landed, and Jiang He released black sunlight to engulf the Supreme Warships, enhancing them one by one into indestructible items. When the cannonballs arrived, the upgrade of the Chaotic Explosion Engineer immediately began.

Chapter 490 A good feast

The empire's millennium, May 19th.

News of the fall of Cangwu Province swept across the empire. The rebel army in Fengtian grew stronger, more than half of the main force of Tianshui in the western border was lost, and an imperial lieutenant general fell. In a short time, countless people rose up in rebellion in the thirty-six provinces, but they were all quickly suppressed by the local garrison and aristocratic families.

Meanwhile, the Yanrao Alliance was held in Hongmen County. All eighteen division commanders of the Fengtian Army attended the meeting. Among them, the White Snake Group was second only to the Yanrao Group in strength.

As early as the beginning of the empire, the Great Yu Emperor and the Pillars of State held a blood oath at the Heavenly Capital Fortress on the Eternal Dark Continent. Because the wine was served in golden goblets and the guards were all armed with white blades, it was also known as the Golden and White Alliance.

The Fengtian Army tried its best to emulate the old ways in terms of scale for this alliance meeting. The pre-banquet ceremony and sacrificial offerings were quite grand. The fact that Fengtian leader Yan Jun was the successor of Emperor Taizong spread. Compared to the young King of the Western Border, many forces inevitably trusted the legend's judgment more, even though this legend had already passed away a century ago.

Deng Deng Deng!

Outside Hongmen County, a cavalry force of ten thousand men marched into the city. In this era of the prevalence of alchemy and source-powered weaponry, the status of primitive cavalry has actually been greatly reduced, usually becoming a means of transportation and communication in complex terrain.

However, this force is no ordinary one. It is the Iron Cavalry Guild, which has only recently emerged. Including the guild leader and three vice guild leaders, the thirty-six riders at the head are all strongmen from the Golden Age, and they are guaranteed to have elite strength.

Most importantly, all the warhorses were extraordinary beings, with speeds no less than ordinary gold. During the period when the main force of Fengtian was being pursued by the Tianshui General, the Iron Cavalry Guild's roaming harassment created a great deal of space for maneuvering.

Ten thousand iron cavalrymen headed straight for Hongmen Mansion, most of whom were local creatures temporarily recruited.

"Commander Iron Cavalry has arrived!"

"Master Fufeng has arrived!"

"The Lava Master has taken his seat!"

Before long, the elite troops of more than a dozen other divisions also arrived in the county town. The Yan family's private soldiers disguised as the Soul Infantry Division's direct guard brigade, the Fu family's private soldiers' demolition brigade, the Shan family's private soldiers' assault brigade, and the Ruan family's private soldiers' heavy tank brigade, the most capable troops of the Fengtian Army, were all private armies of aristocratic families that should have been on the side of suppressing the rebellion.

In front of Hongmen Mansion, the strange man, as the second-in-command of the Rao family, greeted each of the masters one by one, but his expression was a little cold. Half of these guys had only come down after the defeat in Tianshui.

Suddenly, a dark cloud swept across the distant horizon.

Up to fifty undead warships, led by the epic flagship New White Serpent, arrived above the county town. The dark muzzles of their cannons protruded from their hulls, looking like they could unleash a magical bombardment at any moment, sending chills down the spines of the rebel generals on the ground who were looking up at the sky.

"White Snake... I hope the negotiations haven't fallen apart."

"It hasn't started yet, so a fight probably won't break out."

"How did the White Serpent Group manage to acquire such a fleet of ships!"

The clamor of discussion was incessant. If a mid-grade family could control two or three unyielding warships, their foundation was already quite strong. A fleet of this size was equivalent to the entire fleet of several high-grade families.

call!

Two streaks of light landed.

As the smoke cleared, two figures emerged, one in front of the other. The one in the lead was tall and slender, his face shrouded in wisps of mist. His deep red coat was slightly tattered, covered with marks from cuts and slashes. His features were indistinct in the mist, but his cold eyes stared ahead, chilling to the bone.

Beside him, a cloaked figure stood as a close guard, exuding an exceptionally powerful aura; he was none other than a heroic being.

"Deputy Division Commander White Snake has arrived!"

The uproar was completely ignited. A powerful figure of the Duke level was actually willing to serve as a bodyguard. Even the Salt Lord of the Rao Clan usually stood side by side with the hero when they went out together.

"Who is this guy?!"

"A disciple of a sect? The eldest son of a powerful clan? A candidate for general?"

"No need to guess, it must be extremely illustrious."

The two went straight to the front of Hongmen Mansion. The strange man became reserved. He took a few steps closer and whispered, "Sir, the patriarch is a generous and magnanimous man. If there are any slanderous words, please forgive him. Our great cause has not yet been accomplished, so we must unite as one."

Jiang He remained noncommittal, handing over several letters and saying, "Since you're worried about fighting at the banquet, why don't you send these letters out for me?"

"I will certainly do my best." The strange man nodded in agreement, then turned and waved his hand, "Guards, please come in."

A moment later, several beautiful maids came over and extended their hands to invite the distinguished guests inside. The lead maid led the way, her hips swaying gracefully, her curves alluring beneath her white dress.

Merrick secretly elbowed someone.

Jiang He turned her head and glanced sideways, then said in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Merrick asked cryptically, "How old are you?"

"I haven't reached adulthood yet," Jiang He answered frankly. The question wasn't sensitive, but the calculation was somewhat troublesome.

According to the standards of the Sun Elf, he was actually only half a year old since his birth. If we consider the time spent traveling the world, the total amount of time spent in the meantime is extremely complicated.

Regarding this matter, Lao Hei preferred to refer to the current world, and Jiang He had no objection as well.

Upon hearing the reply, Merrick glanced at the flirtatious maid in front of him. To be honest, her figure was indeed noteworthy, especially when she walked, which accentuated her voluptuousness. If it weren't for the issue of her vampire status, he wouldn't even mind granting her a vampire servant position. Clearly, the maids who entertained the White Serpent Group had been carefully selected.

“I’m thinking,” Merrick said thoughtfully. “Are you really a young man?”

“You should reflect on whether you’ve been working hard enough,” Jiang He said calmly. “Right now, among the heroes present in Hongmen City, you probably couldn’t beat any of them in a one-on-one fight.”
