Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 445 Changes

 “How does Mr. Zhao view this successor?”

Everyone only briefly discussed the Qiankun Ding and the Qiankun Wuyuan Formation, and soon returned to the topic. Some people looked at Zhao Lie, the chief of the Supervision Department, and asked him in a low voice.

Zhao Lie stared at the direction of the White Jade Square, taking in all the figures of the eight kings including the King of Jin and the King of Chu. Then he shook his head slightly and said: "The affairs of the Heavenly Family are determined by the Heavenly Family. We should not interfere. It will be the business of the ministers." yes."

Since the world of Daxuan is a world where martial arts is respected, the inheritance of Emperor Xuan in the past dynasties has never been the succession of the direct eldest son, but the selection of the most virtuous among all the emperor's sons who are qualified to succeed. Of course, in the end, he will still be the successor. It was up to Emperor Xuan himself to decide.

It's just that in today's generation, first of all, Emperor Xuan Ji Yongzhao himself disappeared. Emperor Xuan should have decided the successor king, but now there is no one who can make the decision. Secondly, it is difficult to distinguish between the eight kings.

In terms of martial arts, the eight kings are all martial arts masters, but none of them have entered the realm of blood exchange. Moreover, all eight of them are qualified to attack the barrier of life and death. Even if there is a certain gap in strength, the weakest one is still the top master. , the difference is really not big.

In terms of power, the King of Jin deserves to be number one, but the King of Chu is not too bad. The King of Han and the King of Liang now have the power to unite, and they can also compete with the King of Jin. The other kings all have their own arrangements.

“Choosing a new king is ultimately an internal matter for the Heavenly Family, so we’ll just wait and see the outcome.”

Shangguannan spoke calmly.

Hearing this, the others looked at each other and then stood with their hands tied, not saying anything more.

In the current situation, they are really not suitable to speak out. They are a group of courtiers who play a decisive role in the Daxuan court. Even Emperor Xuan Ji Yongzhao has to estimate three points when the Daxuan court is united. They have never intervened in the Eighth Route Army from the beginning. The dispute between the kings has now reached a critical period, and it is naturally even more unsuitable to intervene.

But if we really want to talk about their inner thoughts, everyone does have their own ideas, and most of them are headed by the ‘King Jin’. The reason is very simple, that is, the King Jin is the most powerful!

 It’s not that they are afraid of King Jin.

At their current state, martial arts are at the pinnacle of body tempering and have reached the realm of blood exchange. They are so powerful that they either control the most important court portal, or they are the generals who command an army. They have already entered the court in the court. They are not qualified to follow, praise or worship, not to mention that the King of Jin is still the Eight Kings. Even if they truly succeed to the throne as king, they will not succumb to the imperial power.

 The reason why more people are interested in King Jin is because from the perspective of the court structure, if King Jin succeeds to the throne, there will be the least turmoil!

As long as the Qiankun Ding recognizes King Jin as his successor, King Jin will immediately receive support from the entire royal family, the Ji family. Coupled with its inherent power, important courtiers like them will not object. In the future, the other seven kings will no longer be able to fight against King Jin, and the court structure will be able to stabilize in the shortest possible time.

They never cared about who among the eight kings would succeed, they only cared about how to reduce the turmoil in the court to a greater extent. Now that the world is in chaos, it is really not appropriate to continue fighting and fall apart.

Under the attention of Shangguan Nan and many other important ministers.

The eight kings, including the King of Jin and the King of Chu, also walked along the White Jade Square until they arrived in front of the huge Qiankun Cauldron. They looked up and looked at the figures in gray who were sitting cross-legged around the Qiankun Cauldron. .

 “Xuanchu has met all my uncles.”

 King Jin looked calm and peaceful, and he took the lead in bowing to the group of men in gray.

The Qiankun Ding is the tripod of the Tian Family and the most important heritage of the royal family. Those who are qualified to guard the Qiankun Ding are basically the most senior members of the Ji family. They have a respected status, but they are only responsible for guarding the tripod and protecting the emperor. The court will not interfere in the political affairs of the court.

The most fundamental requirement for guarding the Qiankun Cauldron is that the blood of the Tian family flows, and the surname is Ji. It doesn't matter whether it is a collateral line or a direct lineage, because the second requirement is that the body tempering martial arts must be practiced to the point of exchanging blood!

Once you enter the realm of blood exchange and possess the blood of the Heavenly Family, your status in the imperial court will immediately be extremely respected. Not only will your bloodline be able to obtain the hereditary title of king, but you will also be able to If you choose to station in the imperial court, guard the Qiankun Ding or take charge of other key royal heritage, even the contemporary Emperor Xuan will respect him.

 Almost at the same time King Jin bowed and saluted.

 The other seven kings, including the King of Chu, the King of Han, and the King of Liang, also bowed and saluted.

None of them have ever entered the realm of blood exchange. If they ascend to the throne of God, they can treat these elders of the Ji family as equals. But now, with the status of the Eight Kings, they still dare not show any slights.

"coming."

Among the many gray-clothed figures, several were still sitting around the Qiankun Cauldron meditating, not paying much attention to the arrival of King Jin and others. Others turned their attention to King Jin and others and took a look. Among them, the person on the far east side Then he stood up and spoke lightly.

 “Uncle Wang of Dongping.”

Prince Jin responded politely to the gray-clothed figure.

 Ji Yongheng, King of Dongping.

He belongs to the same generation as Emperor Xuan Ji Yongzhao, but he is not a direct descendant, but a branch of the Ji family. By Ji Yongheng's generation, he is no longer among the princes. His father's generation only has viscounts. However, Ji Yongheng is extremely talented and excels in martial arts. He ascended to heaven, finally aspired to the realm of blood exchange, and regained the title of king. Later, he stationed in the imperial court, guarded and understood the mystery of the Qiankun Cauldron.

"According to the rules, we should not interfere in the political affairs of the court, but the emperor brother once entrusted me with something. If he suddenly disappears one day, and there is no news after half a year, and there are still endless disputes between you and others, It will be up to me to make the decision, using the spirit of the Qiankun Cauldron to choose one of you as the new king."

Ji Yongheng glanced at King Jin and others, and while speaking slowly, he shook his head slightly in his heart.

 He ​​is a little younger than Ji Yongzhao, but even though he is of the same generation as Ji Yongzhao and both were born in the direct line of the royal family, he is not qualified to compete with Ji Yongzhao for the throne. After he reached the blood-changing realm in martial arts, he also sparred with Ji Yongzhao several times, but failed.

Compared with Ji Yongzhao, the eight princes, King Jin and King Chu, are far behind. At the age of King Jin, Ji Yongzhao has already entered the realm of blood transfusion, instead of staying in the marrow cleansing realm and not daring to attack the blood transfusion. life and death.

As long as one of the current eight kings enters the blood exchange, there is no need for the Qiankun Ding to choose a new king. The one who enters the blood exchange will have an absolute advantage, and they, the elders of the Ji family, will support them, and the throne will be There is no suspense.

 As for Ji Yongzhao…

Although the matter of this imperial brother was hidden from him, he still knew more or less the inside story.

 “It still didn’t work out after all.”

Ji Yongheng sighed secretly in his heart. After all, that kind of method was a move against heaven, and failure was not surprising. Even if he entered the realm of blood exchange, he would still be a mortal. It was impossible to escape the constraints of heaven and earth, and his desire for immortality was still illusory.

Of course, Ji Yongheng would not say this. After all, he didn't know much. Many of the situations were his guesses. He didn't even know when Ji Yongzhao disappeared from the palace. He has been missing for more than half a year now. Perhaps his attempt to live forever failed and he died.

 Now.

Ji Yongzhao's life and death are unknown, and his whereabouts are unknown. Even if the descendants of King Jin are useless, they can only choose one person.

Seeing that the King of Jin, King Chu, and others were all looking solemnly, Ji Yongheng finally said slowly: "Okay, you and the other eight people can guide the inner breath and connect the Qiankun Cauldron to see who can get the spiritual recognition of this cauldron in the end."

The voice fell.

 The king of Jin, the king of Chu, and the king of Han who were present looked at each other with different expressions. Among them, King Jin has the most calm demeanor. As the eldest among the eight kings, although he has never entered the realm of blood exchange, when it comes to martial arts cultivation and strength, he considers himself to be one point better than the other seven princes. Under Chen Mu Before he was born, he had been ranked first in the Daxuan Master List for many years.

 When it comes to bloodline, his purity is also the most unproblematic.

When it comes to power, he has the largest number of supporters. Even among the elders of the Ji family who guard the Qiankun Cauldron, some are more inclined to him. It can be said that he has an advantage in all aspects and is in an invincible position.

 The position of the new king of Daxuan must belong to him, and it is impossible for Qiankun Ding to choose anyone else.

As long as the Qiankun Ding is recognized, the other seven royal brothers will no longer have the possibility to compete with him. Even if they unite, they will have no chance, because the people's will, the public's expectations, and the general trend are those who support the King of Chu and the King of Han. After seeing that something cannot be done, they will most likely retreat and stop resisting.

Even if there are those who are unwilling to give up, he is sure to calmly divide them one by one and settle them one by one by various means.

  Comparatively.

King Chu's eyes were very deep. His thoughts were different from those of King Jin. If he could get the support of Qiankun Ding, it would be the best result. By then, the offensive and defensive forces would be different, and King Jin would be hard-pressed to stop him from ascending. Bit.

But if he does not get the support of the Qiankun Ding, he must not let King Jin get it, because if the others get it, he still has a chance to compete. Only King Jin will have no chance if he gets the support of the Qiankun Ding. .

As for the King of Han, King of Liang and others who were ranked further down, they naturally wanted to go all out and do their best to get the recognition of Qiankun Ding. They did not have an advantage to begin with, and now because of Chen Mu's matter, The foundation has been shaken. Whether it can be recognized by the Qiankun Ding is almost the only possibility to reverse the situation at the moment!

"Come."

Dongping Wang Ji Yongheng took a step forward and waved his right hand gently. The Qiankun Cauldron standing on the sapphire platform immediately showed a wisp of ripples, and a layer of light of the Eight Phases of the Universe instantly appeared on the surface.

 It was almost at this moment.

King Jin and others all had sharp eyes, and they all took a step forward. They each reached out with their hands, mobilized their own inner Qi machines, and exerted eight different Qi energies, presenting eight different shapes in the void. A colored beam of light falls on the surface of the Qiankun Cauldron!

Among them, the King of Jin waved out a beam of yin and yang light that merged with black and white, while the King of Chu waved out a stream of flowing Qi of the Five Elements. The other kings also exerted various different Qi energies, all showing their mastery. top means.

Hum!

The aura of the Universe on the surface of the Qiankun Cauldron immediately began to ripple and flow after it came into contact with the auras of the kings, turning into waves of ripples that were turbulent, as if the spiritual beings in it were thinking about how to make a decision.

At this time, the other elders of the Ji family who were guarding the Qiankun Cauldron also opened their eyes one after another. Some stood up, and some were still sitting cross-legged on one side, each looking at the kings such as King Jin and King Chu.

in.

Dongping Wang Ji Yongheng glanced at the eight qi jins in the void. After careful observation, he finally turned his gaze to King Jin on the far left, with some ripples in his eyes.

Although in his opinion, the eight kings of this generation are far inferior to their father Ji Yongzhao, among the short ones, it is true that King Jin is the most outstanding in practicing Yin and Yang, and he is also the most qualified. If the King of Jin is chosen to establish the throne, the turmoil in the court structure should be minimal and it should be able to settle down in the shortest time.

 I think Qiankun Ding should also make the same decision.

However.

Just as Ji Yongheng was thinking about this, he saw that among the eight kings, the most inconspicuous King of Han, Ji Xuanfei, suddenly flashed a faint light in the depths of his eyes, and a hint of inner energy arose in his eyes. Extraordinary waves.

Originally the Qiankun Cauldron's constantly flashing and free spiritual light seemed to be about to stop on King Jin's energy, but at this moment it suddenly flickered violently, suddenly rose and changed, and then suddenly merged into the energy of King Han Ji Xuanfei. Above the aura!

Hum!

In an instant, King Han's Qi suddenly surged. At this time, he no longer needed to use his inner breath to attract the aura of the Qiankun Cauldron. Instead, the aura of the Qiankun Cauldron surged out, covering his entire body!

"This is impossible!"

 The face of King Jin suddenly changed.

"what happened?"

 King Zhao’s expression also changed.

"what have you done?!"

  King Yan looked at King Han, his eyes sharp and shouted.

far away.

The expressions of many of the blood-changing masters from various forces who had been quietly watching the situation changed at this time.

 It was obvious that the aura of the Qiankun Cauldron hovered longer and more hesitantly between the King of Chu and the King of Jin. It seemed that he wanted to choose between the King of Chu and the King of Jin. But why did it suddenly change and fall on the King of Han? !

"what happened?"

 “Why the King of Han.”

“Among the eight kings, he is the least outstanding. Why did Qiankun Ding choose him?”

　　Many masters of the blood exchange realm frowned and looked a little ugly.

There was only one person, the Master of the Xuanji Pavilion who came with King Han. He had a somewhat sickly expression, but now his eyes suddenly glowed with light. Sure enough, the divination of the Xuanji Mirror was the real secret. They chose King Han. Not wrong!

At this moment, only King Han himself knows what happened. This is his fate. He once got a secret method from the wilderness by chance. It does not belong to Daxuan. Its effect is to interfere with people who have the ability to a certain extent. 'Spiritual' warrior.

Originally, this secret method did not have much effect, because there are too few truly spiritual spiritual soldiers in the world. Looking at the world, there are no more than two hands, and those who can control these spiritual soldiers are the best in the world. Masters and even many spiritual soldiers were already in the hands of the royal family, but they never expected that this secret method he obtained by chance would have a huge effect on the spiritual light of the Qiankun Cauldron!

Before this, no one thought that Emperor Xuan Ji Yongzhao would disappear out of thin air, so that he could not personally designate the successor, but had to be decided by the Qiankun Ding guarded by Ji Yongheng and many other Ji family veterans!

 “Ahem, cough…as expected, it is indeed so, this is God’s will, this is God’s will…”

The Master of Xuanji Pavilion coughed twice, and an unnatural trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but he was completely unaware of it and only murmured to himself with his eyes shining.
