Chapter 419 -288 Ancient Times_2
The gap between the two had gradually begun to show.
In addition to this,
there were no significant changes among the other Gu Family descendants.
After all, a year is neither too long nor too short, and people like Gu Yang and others had already stepped into the Tiaoist Palace Realm. It is naturally not easy to break through further.
…
Spring goes, autumn comes.
Another six months quickly passed.
During these six months, the Divine Martial Dynasty mobilized troops again towards the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, and the once destroyed Ancient Beast Nine Cities were reestablished.
However,
the Ancient Beast Nine Cities now had a new name.
Evil Suppressing Nine Cities!
The so-called evil
refers to the Evil Spirit.
The evil spirits in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range had been suppressed, and Gu Yang established the Evil Suppressing Nine Cities to commemorate that battle.
At the same time,
the army stationed in the Nine Cities began to explore the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
As the barrier between the Nine States and the Eastern Domain, the Ancient Beast Mountain Range stretches endlessly, containing countless fierce beasts and uncountable cultivators who perished there.
Over the years,
the Ancient Beast Mountain Range had concealed numerous opportunities.
These opportunities,
for other forces, were immensely tempting.
Imperial Palace.
In the court.
The ministers gathered.
Gu Yang looked at the officials below, and finally, his gaze fell on Shi Zhen, who stood at the forefront.
“Shi Zhen, I once gave you ten years to train soldiers and create an elite force for my Divine Martial Dynasty. Have you succeeded?”
“Your Majesty, the 36,000 soldiers of the Heavenly Gang Camp have all achieved the Grandmaster Realm. With the Heavenly Gang Divine Slaughter united, they can suppress those in the Dao Palace Realm!”
“Additionally, the Divine Might Camp and Mountain Suppressing Camp, both have one million elite soldiers, who are all seasoned veterans. The weakest among them are in the Marrow Cleansing Realm, while the strongest have stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm.
All three camps’ elites are battle-ready!”
Upon hearing this,
the officials’ expressions changed.
They were aware that the court had been extensively training soldiers for years but did not expect such powerful forces to emerge.
The three major camps were all elites!
Setting aside the Divine Might Camp and Mountain Suppressing Camp for now, just the 36,000 soldiers of the Heavenly Gang Camp all reaching the Grandmaster Realm was astonishing.
One must understand,
even in today’s Nine States, a Grandmaster can establish a sect.
The entire Martial World might not even have that many Grandmasters.
But now,
just the Heavenly Gang Army alone comprised 36,000 Grandmasters.
If this news spread, it would shock the world.
Regarding this,
Gu Yang was not overly surprised.
Only he knew what kind of price the Divine Martial Dynasty paid to train these three camps of elites.
Ninety percent of the resources collected from the Ancient Beast Mountain Range were allocated to these three camps, and the resources from the Ancient Desolate Holy Land were also heavily tilted toward them.
Because of this enormous investment, these three elite camps could be trained in such a short time.
When Shi Zhen finished speaking, a satisfied expression appeared on Gu Yang’s face. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Good. With these three elite camps, my Divine Martial Dynasty can take control of the Eastern Domain!”
Speaking of this,
Gu Yang paused and continued.
“Shi Zhen!”
“I am here!”
“I appoint you as the Great General of the Conquering Army, leading the Heavenly Gang Camp, Divine Might Camp, and Mountain Suppressing Camp to attack Taiyang Prefecture!”
“I accept the order!”
Shi Zhen was shaken, immediately clasped his fists, and accepted the command.
After that,
Gu Yang looked at the others.
“Xue Cheng, Jiang Mo, Tong Lingfeng, you three will lead your respective Xue Character Camp, Jiang Character Camp, and Tong Character Camp to join the army. You will be deputy commanders, following Shi Zhen’s orders upon the army’s departure!”
“We accept the order!”
Xue Cheng, Jiang Mo, and Tong Lingfeng stepped forward simultaneously and accepted the command.
The three of them were all great generals of the court, each commanding their respective troops.
Even though their armies were not as elite, they made up for it in numbers.
Under the current Divine Martial Dynasty’s rule over the Nine States, and after several decades of recuperation, the population has greatly increased, more than tenfold compared to the end of the previous dynasty.
Therefore.
The three great military camps.
Each consists of five million soldiers.
Together, the three camps have a total of fifteen million soldiers.
This number is already quite astonishing.
“I give you one year. I want to see the banner of the Divine Martial Dynasty on Taiyang Prefecture!”
Gu Yang said in a deep voice.
Taiyang Prefecture is a territory under the control of the Guiyuan Dynasty.
Now that the Divine Martial Dynasty plans to mobilize its forces, its first target is naturally the Guiyuan Dynasty.
“Rest assured, Your Majesty. I will capture Taiyang Prefecture within a year, or else I willingly accept military law!”
Shi Zhen immediately issued a military pledge, which satisfied Gu Yang, who nodded approvingly.
Afterward.
The court continued to discuss for another half of the two-hour period before finally dispersing.
When the court session adjourned, all officials hurriedly left, with complex expressions on their faces.
There is no other way.
The events that transpired in the court today truly shocked them.
Even though the news that the Divine Martial Dynasty would mobilize its forces had already been spreading among the populace, making it something everyone speculated upon, the actual implementation still caused a stir in their hearts.
It’s important to understand that when war breaks out, too many things are implicated.
Especially the interests of various parties.
However.
Gu Yang did not pay attention to the outside world’s shock. He was now in the Imperial Study Room, looking at the intelligence reports brought by the Hidden Guards.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, it is now said that there are signs of evil spirits reviving in the Ancient Wilderness. Many cultivators have perished, and it’s rumored that several saint sects and noble families have been annihilated, with all their strong figures fallen.
This matter has alarmed many ancient forces, who have sent their powerhouses to exterminate the evil spirits!”
Gu Yi reported respectfully.
His words.
Made Gu Yang’s expression slightly serious.
“It seems that there are indeed many evil spirits lurking within the Ancient Wilderness. The question is whether this outburst of evil spirits is a coincidence or intentional by someone hidden in the shadows!”
Gu Yang muttered to himself, his eyes flickering.
The appearance of evil spirits.
Has already caused chaos in the Ancient Wilderness.
From Gu Yang’s perspective, this is not necessarily a bad thing.
After all, the greater the chaos in the Ancient Wilderness, the bigger the opportunity for the Divine Martial Dynasty.
If the Ancient Wilderness were peaceful, the Divine Martial Dynasty’s military movements would undoubtedly attract attention from various forces, making it extremely difficult.
On the contrary.
With the current chaos caused by the evil spirits, all forces are preoccupied with dealing with them, making it much easier for the Divine Martial Dynasty to act.
Gu Yi said: “According to the Hidden Guards’ findings, this emergence of evil spirits might be related to a force known as the Taiyi Divine Dynasty!”
“Oh?”
Gu Yang’s expression was puzzled.
He had never disclosed anything about the Taiyi Divine Dynasty.
Gu Yi continued: “An ancient noble family used a Great Saint Weapon to defeat the army of evil spirits, then went deep inside to eradicate them. They found a stele with the inscription ‘Eternal Suppression of Evil Spirits’.
From the stele, an ancient Dao Rhythm was left behind, recording its origin.
The news of the Taiyi Divine Dynasty spread from there!”
At this point.
Gu Yi paused, then continued.
“Now it is rumored in the Ancient Wilderness that the existence of evil spirits might trace back to the Ancient Era, where an unparalleled force named the Taiyi Divine Dynasty suppressed the entirety of the Ancient Wilderness’ evil spirits.
But as time passed, the seals left by the Taiyi Divine Dynasty weakened. By the current era, the seals have completely lost their effect, leading to the emergence of the suppressed evil spirits, causing immense disasters!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yang also nodded slightly.
It must be said.
Gu Yi’s words were identical to the suspicions Gu Yang harbored in his heart.
What differed was.
Gu Yang knew more clearly that the so-called Taiyi Divine Dynasty was a supreme force that had emerged from the Nine States.
Within the Ancient Wilderness.
In the time before the current era, there were three eras.
The Taikoo Era, the Ancient Era, and the Prehistoric Era.
Each era is not simply defined by time, but by a supreme catastrophe that reshuffled the Ancient Wilderness, marking the end of one era and the beginning of a new one.
However.
According to Gu Yang’s understanding, the so-called prehistoric catastrophe occurred at least ten million years before the present.
The prehistoric era was already such.
The extent of the antiquity of the Taikoo Era is thus unimaginable.
