Celestial Immortal

Chapter 590 Viewing the World

Pinch the formula with your hands, and know it with one finger.

The talisman turned into a cloud of pale white smoke, and Han Chen's figure emerged out of thin air in the cloud, clasping his fists and saluting.

"Friend Chu, long time no see."

"Friend Daoist Han!"

Chu Chen returned the gift with a smile. He and Han Chen were already close, but since they borrowed the "Five Elements" to help Han Chen break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop, the relationship between the two has become closer.

He is a Taoist friend on the way of practice, and he is also a natural ally who is not aligned when working in Xianting.

Speaking of which, the current situation of the two is similar.

Chu Chen made a breakthrough by coincidence at the feast in the East China Sea and became a fifth-rank Taoist. He has devoted himself to cultivating in the Taoist monastery for this year.

Han Chen's situation is similar. After he resigned from his position as the governor of the Guangping County Ghost and God Division, he was directly transferred back to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy to practice his natal supernatural powers, and he has been cultivating so far.

The two had been meditating for a year, and had no contact. When they met again, they were quite moved, and missed the days when ghosts and gods worked together in Guangping County.

After exchanging pleasantries, Han Chen remembered something, apologized, and apologized to Chu Chen:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, while chatting with my friends, my junior brother accidentally revealed the situation of my breakthrough to outsiders, and leaked out the fact that you lent me the birth of the five elements."

When Chu Chen heard the words, he suddenly realized. He wondered why Li Guang suddenly knew that he had borrowed the "Five Elements", and the original source was indeed from Han Chen's family.

The Dachang Heavenly Dynasty has a vast land and abundant resources, and is vast and boundless. It looks big, but the real circle of the upper class is not that big.

Li Guang was born in the Immortal Sect of the Great Sect, and has a wide network of contacts in the imperial capital, so it is not surprising that the news reached his ears.

"I've been cultivating quietly for the past few days, and I just heard about it today. That guy Li Guang seems to be arrogant, but he's actually a little narrow-minded and petty. He must have made things difficult for you recently, right?"

Han Chen was very embarrassed.

At the beginning, he touched the breakthrough opportunity by accident, but his master retreated. Thanks to Chu Chen's "birth of the five elements", he did not miss the breakthrough opportunity.

This is a great grace to help the Tao.

Now that something like this happened, he couldn't bear it.

"Hahaha~ It's okay!"

Chu Chen smiled, quite calmly, and said, "Li Guang really didn't want to see me a few days ago, but I'm not in the Department of Ghosts and Gods, so he has nothing to do with me."

"Furthermore, I'm not made of mud. At best, he won't give me a good face, and he doesn't dare to openly and directly target me and Master."

Seeing that Chu Chen was calm, Han Chen nodded slightly.

Xu Ping has the influence left by Taoist Yunlei. Although he is the new deputy governor, his position is very stable. Chu Chen himself is also the head of the fifth-rank Taoist academy.

The influence of the master and apprentice in Guangping County cannot be underestimated.

"Fellow Daoist Han, this is a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. You didn't come to me just for this matter, did you?"

Chu Chen was a little surprised. It wasn't an important matter. Lao Han could contact him through other means, so why waste a precious Wanli Sound Transmission Talisman.

This kind of one-time ten-thousand-mile sound transmission talisman is very valuable, and it would be a bit of a waste if there is no important thing to do.

"That's not true. I have other important things to ask you for."

Han Chen smiled and asked:

"How is the tide of evil qi in Guangping County?"

Chu Chen said truthfully: "The county government, the county ghost and god department, the ghosts and gods of the mountains, rivers, land, and underworld, and the people everywhere have suffered casualties, but the situation is still stable, and it can be regarded as having survived the initial stage of the tidal natural disaster."

"Well, this situation is okay."

Han Chen was not surprised, but with a complex look on his face, he sighed:

"Unfortunately, this is just the beginning of the tidal natural disaster, and the next few years will be the real test."

Chu Chen also knows this truth. Although the first wave of tide is fierce, it will last for a short time. If the Celestial Dynasty prepares properly, it will soon be able to control the situation and stop the turmoil.

Then the small-scale and continuous tide of evil energy in various places is the most deadly.

In the past few years, the power of demons will expand rapidly, and the Celestial Dynasty will be under a lot of pressure from internal and external troubles.

"Fellow Daoist Han, what you want to do with me is related to the tide of evil energy?"

"Not bad!"

Han Chen nodded, and then looked around Chu Chen's surroundings. Seeing that it was a private study, he immediately said mysteriously:

"After the evil qi tide ended, the officials invited Mr. Ming Jing into the palace to discuss important matters last night. Do you know what the two celestial beings talked about?"

Chu Chen couldn't laugh or cry: "Fellow Daoist Han, don't tease me, how would I know."

Han Chen smiled loudly, and did not continue to whet his appetite, but said casually:
"In the next few years, demons danced wildly and turbulently all over the world. The officials deliberately let Mr. Mingjing go out of the customs and enter the wild land in the southwest to guard the frontier and fight against the arrogance of demons, while the officials personally conscripted into the northwest to wipe out the atmosphere of demons. .”

The so-called "outside the customs" refers to the land outside the middle land of Kyushu.

The land of the middle land of Kyushu is the place where the dragons prospered in the Dachang Dynasty. It is rich in products and densely populated.

In fact, the territory of the Dachang Celestial Dynasty was far beyond the land of Kyushu.

In addition to Kyushu Middle Earth, there are many barren states and counties outside the pass.

In the past, Taizu boxed the world, swept away the demonic atmosphere, and the entire continent fell into the hands of the Dachang Celestial Dynasty, and then delineated the universe and divided the world into 99 states.

However, even during the heyday of the Celestial Dynasty, the demons declined and their forces were compressed to the northwestern and southern corners of the mainland, but the Celestial Dynasty could not swallow the entire continent.

There is no other reason, the population is not enough.

The natural environment of the barren land is harsh, even if the monsters recede, fierce beasts, insects, poisonous miasma, etc., it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.

It is impossible to immigrate to the barren land in large numbers, and actually control the barren land. Over time, the demon forces recuperate, and after their strength slowly recovers, they naturally begin to occupy a large number of uninhabited territories, sweeping back.

However, since the founding of the Dachang Heavenly Dynasty, it has never given up on managing the wasteland outside the customs. In name, the territory of the 99 prefectures has shrunk "since ancient times", but the actual control of the territory has not decreased, but has continued to grow slowly.

As the Dachang Dynasty continued to expand outwards, the kingdom of demons and demons swept back, and the righteous and demons bordered on the wild and desolate demon realm, and launched a protracted struggle.

This is a war about "survival".

Neither side dared to make concessions.

The land is the foundation of the survival of the living race.

The loss of a vast territory means the loss of inexhaustible and continuous resources, the weakening of strength, and the shrinking of territory.

This will ebb and flow, and finally the country will be destroyed and the people will be reduced to livestock, slaughtered by demons, and enter the dark age.

The tide of evil qi is raging across the world, and the demons are rising again taking advantage of the right time and place. Whether it is the current emperor Wei Emperor, or the next generation of the Supreme Master Ming Jing, they will not sit back and watch the demons rise.

Chu Chen was quite shocked when he heard the news from Han Chen.

The tide of evil qi was raging, and the Celestial Dynasty did not choose a conservative strategy, but fought against it with a battle, stationed troops outside the pass, opened up territories, and attacked demon forces.

In this regard, Chu Chen quite agrees:
"Han Duguan, the decision made by the superior is very wise. The tide of evil energy is of great benefit to the demons. At this moment, the Celestial Dynasty cannot retreat. If you seek peace through struggle, you will survive peacefully, and if you seek peace through compromise, you will perish peacefully."
