Chapter 118: The Four Families Alliance Strikes!
Reaching the realm of nothingness, Qin Zheng finally felt relieved of his heavy burden.
At the very least, the strongest fighting force can now contend with a high-ranking Tianwu Realm cultivator. Although the situation is becoming increasingly perilous as Yu Xiu's tribulation draws near, a Tianwu Realm cultivator's strength seems somewhat unimpressive. However, Qin Zheng has managed to advance from Lianwu Realm high-grade to Yiwu Realm initial stage in just five months, which is already beyond imagination.
"I don't know if I can make a breakthrough in the next month."
The Qin government has good wishes.
He also knew that this was closer to a daydream, unless there was some kind of encounter, otherwise normal cultivation would be completely impossible.
After being excited for a while, Qin Zheng calmed down again, excluding all distractions and fully devoting himself to cultivation. This time, with the comprehension of the Dragon Elephant Heaven Swallowing Technique, his cultivation speed increased once more, also causing his strength to rise at an even faster rate, allowing him to make great strides in the early stages of the Intentional Martial Realm.
More than ten days later, Qin Zheng's quiet retreat was interrupted again.
This interruption also made Qin Zheng wryly smile, fearing that from now on, it would be difficult to calm down and cultivate again. Making another breakthrough would only be a fleeting illusion, with no possibility left.
And this has added shadows to Qin Zheng's desire to break the deadlock.
But he can't show it, that would affect the people around him, and once these people lose their morale, there's even less chance of breaking this deadlock.
It was the four elders of Cangyun who interrupted Qin Zheng's cultivation.
Recently, Sī Kōng and Dà Zhǎng Lǎo Liè Fēng have both been in seclusion, leaving only Cāng Yún to preside over the affairs of the Dragon Elephant Clan.
"What's going on again?" Qin Zheng stopped his cultivation and put away the three-pronged demonic bone awl.
"Something big has happened!" The four elders' faces were even more solemn than when Qin Zheng had seen them before, their brows furrowed in a way that seemed to foretell the arrival of death.
Qin Zheng's heart tightened, "What happened?"
Four elderly men in the cyan cloud said: "There are two more forces coming, one is the White Dragon Elephant Clan who had a falling out with us back then, and also the Red Flame Sect of the Great Hua Empire has high-ranking elders at the Tianwu boundary leading their troops to come."
"They've finally arrived."
Qin Zheng didn't feel too much surprise.
The two major forces that have not yet been confirmed to be coming, recorded in the Wind Ear Memory Crystal Ball, are the Dahua Empire's Chiyan Taoist Temple and the White Dragon Elephant Tribe of the Demon Clan.
"However, something unexpected happened at the Red Flame Dojo." said Cangyun.
"What surprise?" Qin Zheng asked.
Cangyun said: "It is said that the eldest son of the Red Flame Sect's elder is an ordinary martial artist, and he wants to lead a group to come and seize the clan leader's martial arts essence to help his son transform his martial arts. However, on the way, they encountered people from the Imperial Family of the Datong Empire, and for some reason, a conflict occurred. The people from the Imperial Family of the Datong Empire killed them all, so only the White Dragon Elephant Clan arrived."
"Da Tong Empire Imperial Family?"
At that time, Qin Zheng thought of the Crown Prince of the Datong Empire, Lu Tianlang.
It's hard to tell whether it was intentional or unintentional.
At least one terrible enemy was reduced, and among these emerging forces, the number of powerful people from Chiyan Daochang is undoubtedly the smallest, and the threat is also the smallest.
"What moves will the White Dragon Elephant Clan make?" Qin Zheng asked.
The Dragon Elephant Tribe was one of the eight great tribes of the Demon Clan in its heyday, but later fell from its position as a royal tribe. Internal conflicts erupted, causing it to split apart. The part that split off was originally extremely powerful, but clashed with the Jiao Man Tribe and then assisted the Third Generation Linglong Beast in undergoing a special transformation into the Second Generation, resulting in its downfall.
However, the White Dragon Elephant Clan, which was still in the domain of the demon clan, continued to grow stronger and gradually had the powerful strength to compete for the position of the demon king.
"The specific strength of the White Dragon Elephant Clan is unknown, but it's said that they were originally going to send out a top-notch expert. However, the Jiao Man Tribe pulled some strings and the White Dragon Elephant Clan only sent out their younger generation. But this young generation isn't easy to mess with either - they have all sorts of resources within the clan to cultivate them, and their strength is extremely astonishing." The Fourth Elder, Cang Yun, sighed bitterly, "Not long ago, the Seventh Elder prepared a thick gift and was going to invite some friends to come and lend a hand. But then he ran into someone from the White Dragon Elephant Clan...and got killed by them."
Splash!
Qin Zheng's eyes burst forth with dazzling rays of light, like two scorching suns. The dark clouds unconsciously closed their eyes, and he even suspected that he could not withstand the momentum Qin Zheng had unleashed.
The dark clouds were shocked and amazed, just how strong was the actual power of Qin's government?
"The White Dragon Tribe!"
Qin Zheng thought back to the information mentioned in the Memory Crystal Ball about the White Dragon Elephant Clan, and after a long moment of contemplation, he said, "Issue an order that no one is allowed to provoke the White Dragon Elephant Clan. From the intelligence I received from Shunfeng'er, they should have another purpose for this trip."
"Oh? What's the purpose?" asked the four elderly sages of Cangyun.
Qin Zheng shook his head and didn't say anything else, "Is there something else?"
"There were seven deaths among the elders, and I didn't interrupt your cultivation." said Fourth Elder Cangyun.
"What's wrong." Qin Zheng said.
"The Holy Eye Thieves, the Dragon Elephant Sect, the Xiang Family and the Zhu Family have joined forces. They think that the clan leader is not crossing the tribulation on purpose, so they are delaying time, expecting someone to come and rescue them, but they don't want to attack our Dragon Elephant Clan's base, fearing that it will cause other powers to unite against us, and also afraid of disturbing the clan leader's tribulation. Therefore, they plan to attack the Tiger Garden Manor tomorrow at noon and eliminate it."
The Huayuan Manor was a crucial link in his breaking of the deadlock this time.
He couldn't even move the power of Hu Yuan Manor to the Long Xiang Tribe's base, or else he would expose his plan.
It can be said that these four alliances really hit his fatal weakness.
"What is the attitude of other forces?" Qin Zhengdao said.
"The Linggu Domain, Riyao Daochang and Jiaomang Tribe have not made any statements, it seems they won't take any action. In their eyes, even if the Longxiang Tribe and Hu Garden Mountain Villa unite, they still can't pose a threat to them, so they simply ignore these matters, focusing solely on the tribe leader." Cangyun paused here, "I originally planned to secretly send an expert to assist at Hu Garden Mountain Villa, but was ambushed and killed. Later, it was discovered that this was done by the alliance of the four families. Now that the Great Elder is in seclusion, the only one who can counter Ge Han is me. I plan to go personally, but with Si Kong in seclusion, I can only ask Qin Shao to come out and take charge of the Longxiang Tribe's affairs."
Qin Zheng only then realized that Cang Yun had also made a move to sabotage the Four Families Alliance, but unexpectedly they were already prepared.
He hesitated for a long time, "Let me handle this matter."
"Can Qin Shaokang handle Ge Han? This person is a mid-level expert in the Tianwu realm, with many powerful subordinates, and it's said that Huang Wenzhe, the master of Longxiang Daochang, has also made a breakthrough to become an early-stage Tianwu realm expert." Cangyun was somewhat worried.
"Some specific things within the Longxiang tribe, I have never interfered with and am not familiar with. If I were to go and preside over them, it would only cause some trouble. It's better for you to stay behind and handle it." Qin Zheng made up his mind and did not linger in the Longxiang tribe's residence. He summoned that once-high-spirited white demon eagle, Chengying, and left with him.
The four elders let out a long sigh, gazing up at the vast sky, "Is this situation a sign that Heaven wants to destroy our Dragon Elephant Clan?"
The eagle soared into the sky, dispersing the clouds and fog, but didn't see anyone monitoring. Instead, around the Dragon Elephant tribe's residence, countless people were coming and going, almost surrounding it in a more overbearing manner than any surveillance.
Qin Zheng didn't bother with those people and flew directly to Hu Yuan Mountain Villa.
At this time, the Hu Yuan Mountain Villa had entered a state of high alert, with an atmosphere that was quite oppressive. Many people were riding on yao tigers to patrol around, and any slight movement could trigger their attack.
The four-nation alliance says it will attack tomorrow, but no one dares to say whether they will make a preemptive strike.
Qin Zheng's arrival on a demonic eagle also triggered cheers from the people of Hu Yuan Mountain Villa.
They all had great hopes for Qin Zheng's policies.
After half a year of coming to Longxiang Mountains, Qin Zheng has become the backbone of Huayuan Villa and Longxiang Clan.
Song Qianshan ran out to greet him.
He was originally white and chubby, but now he has lost a lot of weight and his skin tone is also darker.
"In the living room."
Qin Zheng waved his hand to stop Song Qianshan from bowing.
The two of them then entered a secretive living room, which was a separate courtyard.
"Young master, the Four Houses Alliance is going to attack our mountain village tomorrow, what should we do?" Song Qianshan was a bit panicked this time, the strength of the Four Houses Alliance was too strong.
"I'm already aware of this matter, and I've come this time to deal with it." Qin Zheng patted Song Qianshan's shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, I have a way to dissolve their attack."
Song Qianshan was overjoyed upon hearing this, "I knew it, Princess Mo said you'd definitely have a way to break the curse."
Qin Zhengdao: "Have you contacted Mo Gongzhu?"
"Hmm, the problem we encountered this time is really too critical, so I took the liberty of seeking help from Princess Mo." Song Qianshan also didn't hide it, "The situation in the East Sea Royal Palace is being opened up by Princess Mo. It's said that some old friends of the former East Sea King have been entering the Great Yan Imperial City one after another. Princess Mo has also launched a strong attack, pulling the Great Yan imperial family into a stalemate, making them powerless to take action. Only King Pingnan personally led his top experts to come and avenge Yun Duo."
"The Great Flame Imperial Family actually couldn't intervene?!" Qin Zheng was somewhat unexpectedly surprised.
Among these forces, the Da Yan Imperial Family is undoubtedly the one that makes Qin Feng somewhat wary. The reason is simple: to become one of the three major empires of the human race, apart from having some very powerful individuals in the Divine Alliance, it's possible that there are some powerful individuals within the imperial family who have surpassed the Tianwu Realm, or even the Hunwu Realm?
That's obviously impossible.
The three major empires have always been low-key, making them seem inferior to some large sects, but when they truly show their strength, they can instantly kill the large sects. Now that they are being restrained, it can be said that Qin Zheng's pressure has suddenly decreased.
"Now tell me in detail about the specific situation of the four alliances you know, and compare them with what the Longxiang tribe knows to see how strong these four alliances are." Qin Zheng said.
Song Qianshan then went into great detail about what he knew.
Qin Zheng listened and compared the information he got from the Longxiang tribe, basically confirming the true strength of the four-family alliance. After thinking for a while, he said: "You personally command, the mountain villa is fully on guard, I will go to solve the four-family alliance now!"
