Chapter 164 A Divine General Emerges, Poison-Free Destiny

Deep in the earth's veins.

A figure, its body shimmering with spiritual light, moved freely through the earth's veins, as if walking in its own backyard.

"receive!"

Fang Heng shouted sharply, extended his index finger, and pointed it at the void.

Immediately afterwards, a giant bronze cauldron flew out from the depths of the earth.

call--

It landed in Fang Heng's hand amidst a whistling sound.

This cauldron is the Taotie Devouring God Cauldron that Fang Heng traded from the Pixiu.

Fang Heng made a hand seal, and the lid of the Taotie Devouring God Cauldron opened with a bang.

Inside the cauldron, a white liquid shone with a crystal-clear luster, like fine wine and dew.

These are the liquefied divinity.

Seeing this, Fang Heng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a look of joy.

It was worth it for him to trade this acquired spiritual treasure from the Pixiu; the divinity that had escaped from the God-Slaying Array did not disappoint him.

The birth of the Underworld Emperor was like opening a huge hole in the God-Slaying Array, and his divinity poured out like a flood breaking through a dam.

A portion of them were swallowed by the Taotie Devouring God Cauldron that Fang Heng had arranged in advance.

He retrieved the Gluttonous Devouring Cauldron and turned his gaze toward Chen Tang Pass.

"The attack on Liubotai should begin!"

……

Outside Chentang Pass, at Liubo Terrace.

Liubotai was originally an ordinary earthen platform.

After the Donghai aquatic tribes occupied this area, a magnificent city rose from the ground, becoming the largest bridgehead for the Donghai aquatic tribes to attack Daqian.

The Liubotai stronghold is well-equipped with troops, and its commander is a collateral branch of the Jiaolong lineage.

Unless there is a major war between the Great Qian Dynasty and the Eastern Sea Aquatic Tribes, there are basically no battles on ordinary days.

At this moment, Liubo Terrace is less than twenty miles away.

Lu Xiaoyang led the Lu family guards, stealthily making their way here.

“General, if we go any further, we will alert the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation inside Liubo Platform, and we will no longer be able to hide our whereabouts.”

Upon hearing the report from his guards, Lu Xiaoyang nodded, a serious expression on his face.

However, what it exuded even more was an overwhelming, palpable killing intent.

Since it can no longer be hidden, then—

kill!

Go straight to Huanglong!

"Have the spirit peaches been distributed?"

"General, everything has been allocated!"

"That's good!" Lu Xiaoyang paused for a moment, then a chilling aura of killing intent erupted from his tall and straight body.

"Everyone, follow me!"

Lu Xiaoyang lived up to his reputation as a valiant general, leading his personal guards and charging ahead towards Liubo Terrace.

Led by Lu Xiaoyang, the Lu family guards, full of fighting spirit, soared into the sky.

The aquatic creatures at Liubotai were caught off guard by Lu Xiaoyang due to their carelessness.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, hundreds of elite aquatic creatures from the East Sea were killed.

The western city wall was also captured by Lu Xiaoyang.

Only then did Ao Lie, the garrison commander of Liubo Terrace, realize the danger and immediately summoned the troops of the East Sea aquatic tribes to launch a counterattack.

"Activate the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation!" Ao Lie shouted, commanding his men to activate the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation.

The Xuanlang Tianluo Formation is a formation developed by the aquatic tribes of the East Sea.

Once the formation is activated, the surrounding area within a hundred miles will be filled with towering blue waves, creating a battlefield suitable for the East China Sea aquatic creatures to display their power.

However, the western wall of Liubo Terrace had already been captured by Lu Xiaoyang, causing them to lose the initiative.

Even when the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation is activated, it is missing a corner, greatly reducing its power.

The Lu family guards, who had just been launching a fierce attack, suddenly slowed down.

Water was flowing beneath my feet, as if the entire Liubotai had turned into a swamp.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaoyang felt a surge of relief.

Fortunately, the sneak attack was successful. They first eliminated the defenders on the western city wall, weakening the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation.

If the Xuanlang Tianluo Formation were to be unleashed at its full power, the entire Liubo Platform would be transformed into a watery kingdom.

As Ao Lie, the garrison commander of Liubo Terrace, appeared, Lu Xiaoyang's gaze instantly locked onto him.

Their burning fighting spirit poured out like a flood bursting its banks.

After advancing to the eighth realm of martial arts, Lu Xiaoyang was bursting with confidence and was just looking for a suitable opponent to test his strength.

"Ao Lie, do you dare to fight!"

Lu Xiaoyang let out a fierce shout that soared into the sky.

Like the resounding tones of a great bell, it echoed within the Liubo Terrace.

When Ao Lie saw that the commander of Daqian was so foolish as to want to fight him one-on-one, he was immediately invigorated.

Among the younger generation of the entire Great Qian Dynasty, apart from the Daoist disciples and saintesses of the Ten Great Dao Courts, what does he have to fear?
"court death!"

Ao Lie roared, his voice so loud it seemed capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.

With a stomp of his foot on the ground, his burly body pounced on Lu Xiaoyang like a tiger descending from the mountain.

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Ao Lie, Lu Xiaoyang was not afraid at all; instead, he burst into laughter.

"Well done!"

As the hearty laughter subsided, Lu Xiaoyang's body shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

boom--

boom--

boom--

The two main generals clashed directly, and sparks flew everywhere, with rocks piercing the air.

The terrifying aftershocks spread outwards, and no one dared to approach within a radius of several dozen feet between the two.

After exchanging thirty blows, Lu Xiaoyang was sent flying.

He retreated a full twenty feet before regaining his footing.

Bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his internal energy was churning.

As for Ao Lie, he stood as still as an iron tower, his feet completely motionless.

"Humph--"

"With this little strength, you dare to attack Liubotai?"

"Unbelievable!"

After a brief exchange, Ao Lie figured out the strength of the human race's commander.

He can be considered a master in the eighth realm, but he is still quite far from being the best.

With such limited strength, who gave them the courage to attack Liubotai?
Lu Xiaoyang shook his numb right hand, feeling a burning pain in the web of his hand.

"As expected of the dragon lineage!"

"His physique is unbelievably strong!"

Lu Xiaoyang's gaze sharpened, his solemn expression as intense as the June weather, almost dripping with moisture.

Without a backup plan, if he encountered a top-tier eighth-realm expert like Ao Lie, he would have no choice but to flee and would have no chance of winning.

but……

With a flick of his right hand, he took out the Yuan Gang Vermilion Peach.

The crimson peaches emitted a mysterious aura.

"Everyone, eat peaches!"

Lu Xiaoyang shouted and swallowed the Yuan Gang Crimson Peach.

As the Yuan Gang Zhu Tao entered his stomach, it instantly transformed into a warm current that surged through his limbs and bones.

The medicine was so potent that it seemed to explode inside his body.

As the Yuan Gang Zhu Tao melted, the internal energy within Lu Xiaoyang's body seemed to be stimulated in some way, and began to erupt.

The eruption was so fierce, like a volcanic eruption, surging and turbulent.

In just a moment, the internal energy within him increased nearly threefold.

Noticing the change in Lu Xiaoyang's internal energy, Ao Lie nodded slightly, revealing a look of great interest.

"A fine spiritual fruit!"

"It can actually increase the internal energy within your body by more than two times."

"However, how long can you sustain this desperate approach?"

Ao Lie stood proudly still, pointing and gesturing as if victory was assured.

In his view, Lu Xiaoyang taking the Yuan Gang Vermilion Peach would only prolong his life a little longer.

On Liubo Terrace, apart from themselves, the number of troops was already greater than that of the Lu family's personal guards.

The men below defeated the Lu family's personal guards.

Wouldn't Lu Xiaoyang then become a sitting duck?
However, the smile on Lu Xiaoyang's face made him feel uneasy.

The Lu family's personal guards also took out the exact same red spirit peach and consumed it.

A powerful aura erupted from the Lu family guards, soaring into the sky and stirring up the winds and clouds.

"This……"

Ao Lie's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with shock, and even his tone became unsteady.

"how is this possible?"

"Are there this many of these spirit peaches?"

A storm raged within Ao Lie. He wasn't against accepting a spiritual fruit that required risking one's life.

However, the sheer number of them was unacceptable to Ao Lie.

"Could Lu Xiaoyang be the illegitimate son of Emperor Yuanchu?"

"Otherwise, how could there be so many spirit peaches?"

"Shameless!"

Ao Lie roared inwardly.

But what he received in return was Lu Xiaoyang's iron fist.

……

An hour later.

Liubotai, the largest stronghold of the Donghai aquatic creatures outside Chentang Pass, collapsed with a roar.

The corpse of a huge dragon lay in the ruins of Liubotai.

His body was covered in wounds, looking as if he had suffered severe injuries before his death.

However, Lu Xiaoyang was also in bad shape, limping and temporarily unable to fight.

After consuming the Yuan Gang Crimson Peach, he and Ao Lie were evenly matched.

In the end, it was the Lu family's personal guards who captured Liubo Terrace and joined forces with him before they were able to defeat the formidable enemy before them.

"Congratulations General!"

"General Congratulations!"

The Lu family guards all congratulated Lu Xiaoyang.

With the capture of Liubo Terrace, the Lu family's achievements immediately propelled them to the top of the rankings.

This means that the position of the Lu family's top general is secure!
As the saying goes, when one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit.

With Lu Zilong becoming a divine general, the status of his personal guards naturally rose as well.

"Hahaha--"

"Let's go back to Chentang Pass to celebrate!"

Soon, news of the Lu family's capture of the Liubotai stronghold spread like wildfire.

It first spread in Chentang Pass, and then quickly reached Yujing City.

After all, this is a major matter concerning the ownership of the divine general.

In Yujing City.

"The Lu family actually pulled off a stunning comeback?"

"Lu Xiaoyang personally led his personal guards in a surprise attack on Liubo Terrace, catching them off guard and capturing them in one fell swoop. Even Ao Lie was killed on the spot."

"Lu Jiazi, what great courage you have!"

"A dragon has emerged from the Lu family!"

……

"Wasn't it said that Lu Xiaoyang was seriously injured some time ago and was already beyond saving?"

"How did he suddenly recover and even increase in strength?"

"What a strange thing!"

……

"hehe!"

"The position of the Lu family's general is a sure thing."

"This is going to be interesting."

"Li Qingya severely injured Lu Xiaoyang in public, attempting to cut off the Lu family's path to rise."

"Unexpectedly, the Lu family is even more resilient, turning the tables from the brink of defeat. Now the Li family is in for a headache."

"The conflict between the Lu family and the Li family will definitely not end easily!"

"This is going to be a good show!"

……

When news of Lu Xiaoyang's capture of Liubo Terrace reached Yujing, the Second Prince was the one who was most surprised.

"Lu Xiaoyang has broken through?"

"And he even defeated Ao Lie?"

"Could it be that my demon beast meat has such outstanding effects?"

The second prince was filled with doubt and uncertainty, his expression constantly changing.

Lu Xiaoyang's rise to power and Lu Zilong's becoming a divine general are already a foregone conclusion.

The biggest winners, besides the Lu family, are Fang Heng.

The thought of Fang Heng having the Lu family as a powerful ally made him feel uneasy.

Fang Heng is doing incredibly well!

……

By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees:
I have heard that the Mandate of Heaven has been fulfilled, and meritorious deeds shall be recognized.

Erlu Zilong, whose name is auspiciously derived from the Five Elements, possesses the virtues of loyalty and courage.

In the past, the aquatic creatures of the East Sea were rebellious and hid in Chentang Pass, repeatedly defying the wrath of Heaven and causing great suffering to the people.

With the might of thunder, you led 100,000 heavenly soldiers, raised your banners in the East Sea, fought fiercely for ten days, and destroyed their lair beneath the flowing waves.

In this battle, the decisive and ruthless actions brought peace to the coastal areas, earning praise from all the people.

Tejin'er is the [Divine General of the Sea], leading the Xuanwu Army and controlling the aquatic creatures of the East Sea.

admire this
The twenty-sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty.

……

"General Lu, why aren't you receiving the imperial decree?" Eunuch Su said with a smile.

Lu Zilong, kneeling on both knees, his face flushed, respectfully accepted the imperial edict, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

After many years and the efforts of three generations, the Lu family has finally produced another divine general.

This position of divine general is far too important for the already declining Lu family.

Like rain after a long drought!
I was able to become a divine general this time, all thanks to Your Highness.

Lu Zilong sighed inwardly, realizing that the best decision he had ever made was sending his younger sister to the palace.

Otherwise, how could there be such an outstanding nephew?

"Father-in-law, come in and have some tea."

"There's no need for tea."

"Our family still needs to go to the Wang and Gu families to read out the imperial edict," Eunuch Su said with a smile.

Because Chu Yun Shen followed the Crown Prince in purging corrupt officials, he was stripped of his position as a divine general by Emperor Yuan Chu.

The vacant positions of divine generals, which had previously been two, now have three.

Lu Xiaoyang's capture of Liubo Terrace makes him the most meritorious member of the Lu family, earning him a well-deserved spot as a divine general.

Besides Lu Zilong, the other two divine generals are Wang Fuzhi and Gu Heyun.

Wang Fuzhi's strength was formidable, and his becoming a divine general was entirely expected.

As for Gu Heyun, it was purely good luck.

Chu Yun Shen collapsed, thus gaining an extra position as a Divine General; otherwise, he would have been eliminated.

After Eunuch Su left, Fang Heng came out from the back hall and said with a smile:

Congratulations, Uncle!

"Without Your Highness's strong support, how could I have become a divine general!"

Lu Zilong sighed with emotion, his gratitude towards Fang Heng beyond words.

In the past few days, Emperor Yuanchu's rewards have been coming down one after another.

On the day the emperor's corrupt advisors were removed, Lu Zilong and Lin Pojun led troops to defend the emperor, and naturally they received rewards.

Although Lin Pojun's position was not promoted, his military power doubled, and his headquarters battalion was allowed to expand to two battalions.

As for Lu Zilong, he received a reward of rare and precious materials.

Emperor Yuan Chu bestowed upon Lu Zilong a rosary for nourishing the spirit.

This spirit-nourishing rosary is carved from ten-thousand-year-old soul-nourishing wood, and is quite valuable. It can nourish the spirit and soul.

The tenth realm of martial arts – Divine Transformation.

The key to a martial artist advancing to the tenth realm is a qualitative change in their soul.

Emperor Yuanchu's special gift of the Spirit Nourishing Prayer Beads was clearly a deliberate act, calculated to help Lu Zilong break through his cultivation realm.

Soul-nourishing prayer beads, plus the Divine General Tiger Talisman.

Lu Zilong is at least 50% certain he will advance to the tenth realm.

As Lu Zilong became a divine general, a powerful aura surged into Fang Heng's body.

"Ok?"

Fang Heng raised an eyebrow and glanced at the Destiny Chart panel.

Luck +7000!

Lu Zilong's promotion to Divine General actually granted him 7000 points of luck.

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Heng understood.

Since Lu Zilong is part of his own faction, his promotion to Divine General means that his own faction is becoming stronger, and his fortune will naturally increase as well.

The 7000 points of luck were what Lu Zilong gained from advancing to the Divine General level.

If a divine general were to directly join him, Fang Heng estimated that he could gain 10000 points of luck.

After gaining the luck points, Fang Heng had a sudden thought, declined Lu Zilong's invitation to dinner, and hurriedly returned to the Prince's Mansion.

Open the Destiny Chart panel and take a look. Your eyes will fall on the Destiny Chart of 【Immune to All Poisons (Purple)】.

"Immune to all poisons, freeze!"
