Chapter 950: Upgrade of Longevity Lamp (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
“I know.”
…
The Fire Lord had finally waited for his master to return.
“It’s a pity that we failed this ti and couldn’t kill the eight-star Life Luminarist,” his master said regretfully, “In the years I’ve been away, has anything happened in the Yun Nation and the Yan Nation?”
The Fire Lord hurriedly said, “Nothing major has happened. The princes of the Yan Kingdom have been fighting endlessly over the past few years and don’t have the strength to attack the Yun Nation at all. The Yun Nation has taken the opportunity to develop and its strength is growing day by day. Recently, the Yan Kingdom’s Shangjing has made the decision to attack the Yun Nation’s Lingzhou. They plan to take the opportunity to plunder and fill the treasury.”
His master sneered, “This is all the Yan Kingdom can do. It’s no longer the overlord country it used to be. It seems that we can’t expect a real war between the two countries.”
The Fire Lord said hesitantly, “By the way, Master, there’s a joyous occasion.”
“What’s the good news?”
“Over the years, I discovered that the newly appointed director of Lingzhou’s governnt office has the talent for the Longevity Lamp!”
When his master heard this, he said, “Really?”
“How dare I lie?!”
“Ha, ha, ha, good, very good. You’ve done a great service in this matter. The longevity lamp talent is rare. I didn’t expect to find another one. By the way, how strong is he?”
“Seven-star dium-grade.” Seeing the excitent on his master’s face, the Fire Lord could not help but ask, “Master, didn’t you already obtain the talent of a longevity lamp?”
His master glanced at the Fire Lord. “On account of your contribution, I’ll tell you. The Longevity Lamp is the greatest opportunity in this world. Not only can you beco a nine-star Luminarist, but you also have a chance of transcending nine stars. However, you need so special conditions. Although I don’t need the Longevity Lamp anymore, the more talents I have, the better. Once I’ve studied it thoroughly, I’ll send this person to you to plunder.”
How could he not understand what his subordinate was thinking? He just wanted to plunder the Longevity Lamp and beco a nine-star Luminarist. He doesn’t mind painting a big picture for him.
“Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master!” the Fire Lord excitedly said, “That’s right, Master. If that director of the governnt office stays in the state capital, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for you to trap him. Once he attacks, it will also alarm the Yun Nation.”
His master nodded. “We have to consider this matter at length. Although a seven-star dium-grade luminarist is not weak, as long as he leaves the state capital that has the Life Lamp Formation, there’s nothing to worry about. By the way, isn’t the Yan Kingdom going to attack Lingzhou City? We can take advantage of the situation. Send your subordinates quickly to help the Yan Kingdom.”
“Understood.”
…
Shen Ping did not know that he had been targeted by the eight-star Life Luminarist. Even if he knew, he would not take it to heart now. After breaking through to seven-star and combining his various talents, as long as it was not an eight-star high-grade, he was not afraid.
After all, just the enhancent talent alone could instantly allow him to have the strength of an eight-star Luminarist.
After eting the imperial envoy who issued the decree, the two of them went to the backyard to discuss.
“Director Shen, the Monarch has secretly sent two eight-star Luminarists over to guard Lingzhou City. If the Yan Kingdom dares to invade, they will definitely regret it.”
“With two eight-star seniors holding down the fort, there’s no need to worry about Lingzhou.”
The Imperial Envoy smiled and said, “The Monarch is very satisfied with Director Shen’s ability. I hope that you will pay more attention to the grain, logistics, and troops in the next few days. Lingzhou is the northern barrier of our Yun Nation. As long as it is safe, Yun Nation will be safe. If you have any difficulties, Director Shen, you can tell . I’ll report it to the king.”
After the conversation, the imperial envoy left. Shen Ping pondered. He naturally did not like war. However, the fate of countless people would change because of the war between the two countries. He could also take this opportunity to observe carefully. Although it was a little utilitarian, such an opportunity was rare.
Moreover, the more casualties there were in the war, the more vengeful spirits would gather. When combined with the baleful aura ford by the soldiers, producing Life Qi would be of great help to the luminarists of seven-star and above. The two eight-star Luminarists in the capital must have co for this.
Unfortunately, they didn’t know that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. The master of the Fire Lord was also waiting for war. Looking up at the sky, the rolling clouds gave off an oppressive feeling as though a storm was brewing.
Another half a month passed.
On this day, Shen Ping, who had just ended a huge battle, looked at the charming and red Luo Lin and hugged her lovingly. The reason why his Pupil of Fla Beast could improve so quickly was all because of the beauty in his arms serving him painstakingly.
Now, he had even reached the level of tamorphosis. The prediction insight of the Pupil of Fla Beast increased from one year to five years. In five years, one could basically deduce a person’s fate. As long as he made good use of it, he could interfere and change his fate.
“From searching, discovering the various laws of fate, to participating and using… Although I still haven’t truly grasped a trace of the power of fate, if this continues, I will definitely be able to comprehend the true power of fate!”
Shen Ping was extrely confident. In fact, through these years of interference, he gradually realized that the river of fate was indeed incomparably complicated. What he had understood before was only superficial. Be it the foundation of the river, the line of the river, fate, reincarnation, and his own montum, they could only be seen and touched. In the vast river of fate, there were all kinds of deeper connections.
They hide beneath the River of Fate. It’s only when it changes that it cos to the surface.
“Interference, use, push, change… If these are the four ways to understand the power of destiny, then I’m still in the beginner stage!”
The next day, he ca to the city wall to patrol. A soldier in charge was instructing the soldiers to reinforce the city wall, including the Luminarists.
Shen Ping imdiately used the Pupil of Fla Beast. The trajectory of the fates of these Luminarists over the past five years displayed vividly in his mind.
Two months later, they were about to experience a war with the Yan Kingdom. So of them would die, while others would be tempered and beco more mature.
Through the inspection of the Pupil of Fla Beast, he had almost completely restored the war that would happen in the future. So of the loopholes in the city defense had also been made up in ti. There were also those hidden spies who pulled them out one after another.
But within a certain range, fate is not fixed.
After Shen Ping solved the problem, a new problem would arise, which was a new fate path.
After a month of preparation, all the questions that can be considered are ready. Moreover, he knew that the master of the Fire Lord would appear in this war.
It just so happened that he had many questions so he could obtain it from him.
As the news of the Yan Kingdom mobilizing troops to the south spread, the dark clouds of war gradually enveloped them. This ti, it was different from the previous attack by the Marquis of Yan Kingdom. Instead, it was the mobilization of the war machines of the entire Yan Kingdom. Just the number of troops invested exceeded 300,000. These were still elite troops, not counting those auxiliary troops.
Therefore, the Yun Nation constantly mobilized troops to reinforce Lingzhou. The trade route between the two countries had long been restricted, and there were many checkpoints along the way.
In the hall of the governnt office, Shen Ping discussed with the three great clans, the General of the Northern Garrison and the other high-ranking mbers of Linghzou.
According to the information, it would take the Yan Kingdom’s army a month and a half to reach Lingzhou City. This was only the frontline army. As for a large-scale siege, it would take at least two months.
“The Yan Kingdom will definitely attack in advance. Everyone, don’t be careless. The Yan Kingdom is aggressive and well-prepared this ti. Their goal is not just to take advantage of the situation!” Shen Ping said in a deep voice.
The general’s eyes narrowed. “I don’t know where the director got the information, but the Yan Kingdom’s strength has declined in recent years. Although they have gathered elite soldiers this ti, it’s still very difficult to take over my Lingzhou.”
There were 100,000 soldiers in the entire Lingzhou, and this is the regular army. About 100,000 people were transferred from other states one after another, but they needed more than a month to arrive. However, just 100,000 was enough for defense.
“As long as we can hold on for more than half a year, hmph, the Yan Kingdom will definitely be the first to collapse after mobilizing so many soldiers and armor!”
