A group of people discussed for half a day and finally reached a very plain conclusion.

Act according to circumstances, seize by force.

At present, only information about Mu Cangsheng has been received; as for the rest, everyone is completely unaware. With such scant intelligence, devising any plan would merely be a discussion on paper.

Therefore, the only conclusion drawn was these eight words.

After everyone dispersed, only Qing Yu and Feng Jiwu remained in the Great Ming Hall. It was then that Feng Jiwu could no longer hold back, revealing a pained expression, his right hand even crushing the armrest of the dragon chair.

"You mentioned before resonating with something in the south through the Earth Veins. Is this certain thing the Xinglie's Battle Body?" Qing Yu asked.

While speaking, he connected his Thoughts with Feng Jiwu's, transmitting Divine Sense to suppress the overly active Human Dao Will. However, this method also exerted considerable pressure on Feng Jiwu.

But compared to being eroded by the Human Dao Will earlier, it's much better now.

"Huff, huff..."

Feng Jiwu panted heavily, blinking tiredly, and said, "I can only feel it's in the south, but as for the exact location, I don't know."

The Divine Capital is located in Yan Province, meaning aside from Yun Province and Meng Province further north, and the extreme northern ice fields, any other location is possible.

Although Feng Jiwu has a sense, it is so vague that the direction is extremely unclear, let alone the specific location.

"Regarding matters related to Earth Veins, only two things are currently known: the Human Dao Will and the Xinglie's Battle Body. What you sense may be related to the Battle Body.

I will keep an eye out when competing for the Battle Body."

Qing Yu thought for a while and temporarily locked the target as the Battle Body, to see if the sensed matter is related to Feng Jiwu.

'However, this again leads to another slaughter.' Qing Yu thought helplessly.

After understanding the truth behind the blockade, he actually wanted to suppress the Great Tribulation, waiting until his strength reached a critical point to erupt all at once.

But destiny does not favor people; Qing Yu wanted to suppress the Great Tribulation, but couldn't withstand others stirring trouble. The Xinglie's Battle Body is of great importance; if it falls into other hands, a strong enemy is born, so Qing Yu must acquire it.

However, doing so will again fuel the Tribulation Qi.

'The general trend has started; trying to suppress it is a little forced. Before the Tribulation Qi arises, we fuel it, now, it propels us forward.'

Continuous war and slaughter have already made everyone's nerves tightly tense, seizing every opportunity to enhance strength.

The Xinglie's Battle Body is an excellent and great opportunity; no one wants to miss it. Even the Northern Zhou side harbors thoughts of seizing the Battle Body to grow stronger.

"The overactivity of the Human Dao Will isn't normal either. In the coming days, I'll allocate a Primordial Spirit into your Sea of Consciousness to suppress it, so don't get cozy with the Empress." Qing Yu said somewhat teasingly.

He doesn't mind watching; it's whether Feng Jiwu minds being watched.

"You..." Feng Jiwu wanted to retort to Qing Yu, but the heavy pressure in his Sea of Consciousness made him unable to speak, so he had to give up the idea of arguing.

"In this state, how could I have the energy for coziness."

Too lazy to even be angry, let alone cozy.

"If you think that way, it's naturally best. I'm leaving."

...

Time blinked and arrived in December.

In these two months, although Southern Border's pressure increasingly tightened, they managed not to cause great casualties. As for Daqian, it acted like a turtle, only defended, not counterattacked, seemingly waiting for some moment.

The cold war continued until this month, when another force visited the Central Plains.

Above the East Sea, ships stretch for a thousand leagues, flags cover the sky, a dark mass of fleet advancing like another continent towards the East Sea Coast. The waves pushed by the fleet's advance even formed a wave on the East Sea Coast, crashing against seaside reefs.

Japan finally bared its fangs, beginning to march towards the Central Plains.

On the flagship of the fleet, a figure stood at the bow; deep red Juzu like blood-red armor, and on his handsome face devoid of helmet, embedded the fiercest eyes.

"Fifty years in the human world, compared to heaven and earth,

merely a small object.

See the affairs of the world, like dreams and illusions.

Live life once, enter predestined extinction.

This is the seed of Bodhi, feelings of vexation, filling the heart.

This moment go to the Capital City, if you see the head of Dun Sheng.

Look at the world, within the sea and sky, is there anyone with longevity undying."

Suddenly, this middle-aged man with two small whiskers sang the tune of 'Dun Sheng'; though he didn't dance with the tune, in the singing, there was a sense of emptiness and illusion.

Even the surging waves seemed to become unreal, empty and pure within the song. But unlike the song, the middle-aged man's eyes grew increasingly fierce, almost as if they could burn everything.

"Lord Oda Nobunaga still enjoys chanting 'Dun Sheng', even as someone bringing fire and war." Yagyu Munenori walked out of the ship's cabin, every step measured, but his demeanor showed some casualness contrary to the precision of his steps.

"That's because..."

As Lord Oda Nobunaga turned his head, flames of destruction burnt in his eyes, "The more I sing this song, the more I feel like destroying everything. Life is unpredictable, like an illusory dream, birth, aging, sickness, death, agony abounds; hence, I'll provide humanity with liberation."

"If Lord Oda Nobunaga speaks like this, your master, Master Lian Sheng may be displeased. Besides, Japan still holds Buddha as paramount." Yagyu Munenori shook his head.

"What I carry out is the Will of the Buddha, the Will of the god. The Great God Amaterasu handing the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword to me signifies recognizing my Will."

Lord Oda Nobunaga drew out the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword akin to a bone, the sword enveloped by clouds carried the deepest killing intent and malice, "I shall bring destruction and war to the Central Plains."

"All troops, accelerate, reach the East Sea Coast by sunset, initiating Japan's dominion."

His voice echoed across, even overpowering the roar of the waves. The words seemed to contain magic power, stirring everyone's blood and desire for battle.

"Oh oh oh oh oh..."

With excited shouts, the warships advanced faster, soldiers rowing in the cabin chanting faster, some officers bolstering sails with True Qi, rushing rapidly.

Meanwhile, on the East Coast, East Province soldiers formed dikes and built towers, bows drawn and crossbows ready, awaiting the Japanese fleet to enter their range.

However, as the Japanese fleet approached, a crimson figure leapt from the flagship, under the setting sunlight, slashing out a gray-white Sword Qi.
