A leisurely life in the world of cultivation

Chapter 146 Hehehe, I am your great-grandfather!
An incredibly miraculous scene unfolded: not only were the cracks all over his body gradually repaired and healed, but even the blood that had flowed out of his seven orifices was gradually drawn back in.

The rustling sound emanating from the bones throughout the body symbolizes the bones healing.

The most bizarre thing is that a new arm actually grew from the charred and severed part of his right arm...

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, his body, which was almost broken, was restored to a completely intact state.

However, Li Weizhou still did not wake up.

"Husband, husband..."

Zhou Yueniang's eyes were still wet with tears as she softly called out to her again and again.

The fear and despair in his amber eyes had mostly dissipated, replaced by hope.

The others were pretty much the same.

Just then, a strange voice rang out: "The prince will only wake up if all four princesses kiss him!"

Zhou Yueniang: "..."

Situ Qingyue: "..."

Feng Biwu: "..."

Qi Erniang: "..."

Feng Biwu laughed and cried at the same time. For the first time, she disregarded propriety and rushed over to kiss Li Weizhou on the lips.

Fortunately, she got up after the kiss and continued to stare at Li Weizhou, as if afraid that she would break apart again in the next second.

Zhou Yueniang showed no sign of blame, and nudged Situ Qingyue, saying, "Sister, why don't you go first?"

Situ Qingyue shook her head, and the strange voice sounded again: "If you don't kiss me, I definitely won't wake up."

Zhou Yueniang secretly pinched the guy and then leaned down to kiss him.

Qi Erniang was not afraid and took a big bite.

Finally, everyone looked at Situ Qingyue. Situ, being a man of principle, lowered her head and kissed her forehead, warning, "That's about enough."

We haven't settled the score for the heart-wrenching pain we caused her just now.

Li Weizhou suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the four of them with a mischievous grin, and said, "Surprised? Surprised?"

"Ah~~"

Despite being the oldest of the four women, Feng Biwu was the most excited and threw herself into Li Weizhou's arms, then burst into tears again.

While gently stroking her, Li Weizhou explained to the others, "This old dog is the murderer who killed Biwu's parents and clansmen. She just told me, and I said I would give her an explanation. She thought I was reckless enough to risk my life..."

The three women suddenly realized why they were so distraught; they thought she had killed Li Weizhou.

That makes sense...

Zhou Yueniang patted Feng Biwu, who seemed to be struggling to breathe, and looked at Li Weizhou with a hint of reproach, saying, "Husband, why didn't you say so earlier? You are... immortal?!"

The scene of dying and coming back to life was still too bizarre for them.

A celestial destiny, a celestial destiny, just how many more wonders await...?

Li Weizhou shook his head and said, "When I received the opportunity to become an immortal, I had a feeling that I might have several chances to be resurrected. I haven't tried it, but I feel that it's possible."

Feng Biwu rubbed her face against the clothes in his arms, then looked up angrily and said, "You don't know if you can do it or not, yet you go to your death?!" Her voice was shrill.

Li Weizhou gently wiped her face and said, "You saw it too, even Situ is no match for him. If this old dog really lets himself go, his whole family will die. Don't think I have the ability to come back to life, even if I don't, I still have to step up when the time comes. You were blind once, I can't let you be blind again."

Feng Biwu's tears streamed down her face again, her face contorted in pain. Perhaps feeling that her crying was unsightly, she buried her head in Li Weizhou's arms and wept bitterly.

After her outburst, the others seemed to relax a bit, as if Feng Biwu had represented all their emotions.

Zhou Yueniang warned again, "How many times can you be resurrected? You can't be so reckless again!"

Li Weizhou said, "This is my biggest secret, and also our family's biggest trump card. It shouldn't be a problem even if it happens ten or eight times."

Situ Qingyue shook her head and said, "It's not worth wasting time on someone like that."

Li Weizhou asked, "Are there still many Martial God Realm experts in Jinghong Valley?"

Situ Qingyue glared at him and said, "Jinghong Valley has almost never seen anyone forcefully open the Heavenly Gate, not only because they are afraid of death or have ulterior motives, but also because they are not that strong. Apart from Yuanjian Mountain and Leiyin Temple, plus the former Shangqing Palace, which have produced many heroes throughout the ages, the other families are lucky if they can support even one person who breaks through to the ninth level. Three hundred and sixty major acupoints, how easy is it to open them? But for us, the future lies in the Spirit Realm. Wouldn't it be a waste to exhaust your life-saving skills here?"

Li Weizhou disagreed, saying, "If it can protect you, then it's not a waste. Besides, this kind of supernatural power can be improved in the future. In short, I trust you, and you must trust me too. I said everything would be alright, and if I can protect you, I definitely can. So when I tell you to evacuate to a safe area, you must not hesitate or dawdle. You did very well today, very well."

All three women laughed. Feng Biwu wiped her face on Li Weizhou's clothes and then looked up.

Situ Qingyue asked one last question: "If someone were torn to pieces and their body thrown into the abyss of fire, could you be resurrected?"

The other three were also keeping a close eye on him.

Li Weizhou said with considerable confidence, "Of course!"

Situ Qingyue stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed and asked, "Are you the son of the Jade Emperor?"

The term "Haotian Shangdi" comes from the "Tongdian," which states: "The so-called Haotian Shangdi refers to the vastness of the primordial energy, which is called Haotian. When viewed from afar, it is called Cangtian. Among all the people, none is more revered than the Emperor, and he is entrusted to Heaven, hence the name Shangdi."

Li Weizhou laughed and said, "I don't know, maybe it's his older brother."

Situ Qingyue glared at him before saying to Zhou Yueniang and the other two, "This matter must not be leaked in the slightest. Otherwise, we will surely be surrounded and killed. Too much good fortune can easily attract the jealousy of the heavens."

Zhou Yueniang nodded and said, "Of course."

Feng Biwu, with red and swollen eyes, nodded in agreement, as did Qi Erniang.

Situ Qingyue looked at Li Weizhou and said irritably, "No wonder I always felt you were so carefree and didn't care about anyone else. I see..."

"No, no, no."

While being modest, Li Weizhou waved away the corpses still soaking in the sea. He was now a major debtor. While others were in debt on the outside, he was a money-devouring beast in his soul, indebted from the inside out, and couldn't afford to waste money.

After tidying up, he rowed the boat back to the spot where the yacht had exploded, saying, "I've never looked down on anyone. Whether others are good or bad, strong or weak, it has nothing to do with me. I just want to live our peaceful and leisurely life. What is royal power or supreme invincibility? None of it can move me as much as your smiling faces. My only motivation to become stronger is to protect you and this family."

All four women, including Situ Qingyue, looked at him with tender eyes.

He continued to retrieve one corpse after another and place them into the "space".

Feng Biwu suddenly frowned and said, "Are our food and drinks placed with these?"

Li Weizhou clicked his tongue and rebuked, "What are you saying? They're completely different things!"

But I was also somewhat guilty.

No one else wanted to think about it or look at it; they turned their heads to gaze into the distance…

After cleaning the sea surface, Li Weizhou asked Situ Qingyue, "What's next?"

Situ Qingyue retorted, "What do you think?"

Li Weizhou laughed, "Let's do it again using the same method! They're afraid of being exposed, so they'll definitely chase us relentlessly. Now, whether by sea or land, a large number of experts will inevitably rush ahead to intercept us. We can't go with their pace. This time, we won't explore Qingyuan City; we'll head straight for Jinghong Valley. However, we don't need to confront them directly. Come on, ladies, I'll show you around!"

Several small hands touched her waist and gently twisted.

"Ah~~"

……

Jinghong Valley is much more impressive than Li Sanlang's Shenji Valley.

The continuous green peaks stretch for thousands of miles like the spine of a giant beast, with two cliffs facing each other at the mouth of the valley.

Standing atop a mountain several miles away, one can see that the valley is a vast basin, as open as a plain. Surrounded by thousands of peaks, clouds and mist drift like a veil among the peaks, revealing rows of palaces and pavilions below.

The most eye-catching building in the very center is the "Nanming Palace," whose golden roof gleams with a glassy luster under the sunlight, and whose foundation is made of a single piece of black jade, revealing its extravagance.

Scattered throughout the valley are clusters of buildings, including palaces and pavilions, as well as secluded dwellings nestled among bamboo groves, some being solitary stone houses, others cave dwellings carved into the mountainside...

Li Weizhou moved aside with his binoculars and asked Feng Biwu, "Where are your enemies? Point them out roughly."

Feng Biwu looked around, pursed her lips, and said, "The southeast corner, that whole area of ​​houses is all there."

After looking around again, Li Weizhou said, "There are three vermilion buildings, the one that looks quite impressive?"

Feng Biwu nodded, his eyes filled with astonishing hatred.

Zhou Yueniang squeezed her hand beside her. Li Weizhou smiled and controlled the drone, flying it over Jinghong Valley. Although the flight altitude of over a hundred meters attracted the attention of some people, Li Weizhou didn't care. The more people he attracted, the better.

He used drones to survey multiple terrain landmarks in Jinghong Valley, established a local relative coordinate system, and then converted the target relative coordinates obtained by the drones into parameters in the artillery's local coordinate system. The 155mm howitzer's own fire control computer combined with the ballistic model calculated the firing parameters.

There were a total of four M777 howitzers. Although they were products of America in the 1980s, they were extremely suitable for mountain artillery warfare.

And with a weight of just over four tons, it is much easier to handle.

The four cannons were placed on a flat area at the foot of the mountain, with their supports buried deep in the soil. Li Weizhou operated them while teaching the other three the specific steps.

Show Feng Biwu the drone footage...

After everything was ready, Li Weizhou called the other three to follow him, each holding onto the cannon rope as they retreated. Then he asked Feng Biwu, "Are you ready?"

Feng Biwu looked into his eyes and nodded, her eyes, which seemed to hold the spring waters of Jiangnan, shimmering with a red lotus...

After smiling, Li Weizhou shouted at Zhou Yueniang, Situ Qingyue, and Qi Erniang, "Release!"

After saying that, he suddenly pulled the cannon rope.

The other three naturally followed suit.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

After four loud explosions, Li Weizhou didn't stop, shouting loudly, "Continue!"

He quickly moved forward to continue loading, filling the shell, sealing it, and then continued pulling the gun rope.

He is skilled at the operation and can fire ten shells per minute.

The other three fired six or seven shots per minute, some faster and some slower.

On the drone image transmission display in Feng Biwu's hand, the scene he saw in real time was that sinful mansion, which was almost instantly blown into ruins!

Countless people were wailing, some reduced to fragments, others with severed limbs, and still others lying in the ruins, howling in agony.

There were young people, old people, and women and children...

After several more rounds of attacks, the bombing range expanded significantly, and even the most important main hall of Jinghong Valley, Nanming Hall, was not spared.

You can see that a master from Jinghong Valley suddenly rises up, trying to use his sword to knock down the cannonball.

but……

The shell wasn't just a simple rock; it contained seven kilograms of TNT!
It's another trigger fuse; this strike... will explode instantly!
One shot is enough to cover an entire football field; within that range...

Not everyone can become a Breaking-Nine Martial God.

Even a Martial Saint who had broken through to the eighth level suffered heavy casualties under such bombardment!
The Jinghong Valley, which has dominated the martial arts world of Tiannan for hundreds of years, seems to be on the verge of destruction.

Feng Biwu trembled with excitement as she watched the explosions on the monitor, causing her to kneel on the ground, tears streaming down her face... Father, Mother, Brother, Sister-in-law, and so many other relatives, your great revenge must be avenged!!
……

Before anyone could comfort her, Feng Biwu suddenly stood up and exclaimed nervously, "Oh no, someone's coming this way!"

Li Weizhou smiled and waved his hands repeatedly, putting away the four cannons and shells. Then he smiled at the four women and said, "Let's go, retreat!"

Situ Qingyue suggested, "We can try a match."

Li Weizhou stepped forward and patted her bottom, smiling as he said, "There will be plenty of opportunities to fight at sea. We can kill half of them and infuriate the other half, then we can laugh heartily!"

Zhou Yueniang giggled and said, "Let's go, let's go!"

Situ Qingyue chuckled to herself, feeling that spending so much time with Li Weizhou was changing her own style.

But they didn't insist on anything more, and ran away with their family!

The family hadn't run far when several figures landed on the spot. After looking around, they roared angrily, "Beasts! Beasts! Don't let me catch you!"

"The millennia-old foundation of Jinghong Valley cannot be ruined by these beasts! Chase them!!"

"Inform the Prince of Tiannan's residence that the thieves have revealed themselves!"

"We must not let them leave Tiannan alive! Mobilize all the major gangs and send them out to hunt down this traitor of the Demonic Cult!"

……

The five of them played around, chased each other, and raced each other all the way from Linzhou City to the seaside. Not only were Li Weizhou and Zhou Yueniang laughing and joking, but even Situ Qingyue and Feng Biwu had more smiles on their faces.

After boarding the ship, Situ Qingyue looked at Li Weizhou and said, "You've reached this level in fighting and combat, achieving remarkable results while fooling around. You're unique in the world."

Li Weizhou retorted bluntly, "If I didn't have this ability, how could I have gained your favor?"

"show off!"

Zhou Yueniang retorted without any politeness.

Li Weizhou, holding binoculars, watched the billowing crowd rushing towards them, then laughed and started the patrol boat, heading out to sea.

On the nearby dock, many people couldn't see how the boat got there, how it was set sail, or why it could sail without oars or sails.

They only saw four fairy-like women sitting on the boat, sailing away...

Li Weizhou wasn't driving fast, giving the pursuers a chance.

After looking back for a while, Zhou Yueniang asked Situ Qingyue, "Sister Situ, have you already sent out the message?"

Situ Qingyue nodded, then shook her head, saying, "I'm not sure if it can get out. There are secret channels, but... the Tiannan Prince's Mansion and Jinghong Valley are colluding, their wealth is unparalleled, and their strength is enough to intimidate the Tiannan region. If they already harbor rebellious intentions, I'm afraid..."

Li Weizhou reassured him, "Don't worry, I've already sent a message back, using your identity jade token."

All four women turned to look at him. They had been together almost the entire time, except for the occasional time someone needed to relieve themselves…

Huh? Could such an important matter be accomplished simply by taking a dump?

Li Weizhou didn't explain, he just smiled smugly.

Although the Blood Sea had been emptied by half in order to revitalize the Jianmu tree, tens of millions of liters of blood were being drawn into the sea every day, and the amount was still increasing. Li Weizhou felt it was worth it to spend an hour or two of his blood in the mortal realm to transmit an urgent message.

Situ Qingyue didn't press for details on how she did it, but instead asked, "Did you mention the demonic corpse?"

Li Weizhou nodded and said, "Of course. The portraits of the dead have also been sent over. Not only the Imperial Execution Department, but also the General's Mansion, so that they can make preparations in advance."

Situ Qingyue was completely relieved and even stretched lazily, saying, "In that case, after we finish off this wave, let's pick up Ximei and go home."

"it is good!!"

Zhou Yueniang responded with great delight.

Feng Biwu's complexion had changed completely, and she looked at Zhou Yueniang with a smile, saying, "Madam has been wanting to go home for a long time."

Li Weizhou said, "Going home is good, I want to go home too, but I can have a few days of fun... Everything is ready, and they're here! Wow, what a big entourage!"

The formation on the sea was even more menacing than before, with eight large ships stretching across the sea like dark mountains, surrounded by hundreds of sand barges and bird boats, their sails obscuring the sky and completely encircling the sea.

It's no wonder that the king and the clan worked together; they managed to gather such a large force in such a short time.

However, Li Weizhou guessed that this batch of ships was probably already prepared when the previous fleet was assembled, otherwise, how could it have been prepared so quickly...

Situ Qingyue said with a serious expression, "Be careful."

With such naval strength, even the imperial army would have difficulty dealing with them.

Li Weizhou waved his hand and said, "You bunch of bumpkins. Go to the back and wait for backup. I think we'll need your cooperation this time. Just listen to my instructions."

The four women stopped arguing and, having witnessed Li Weizhou's ability to bring the dead back to life, their confidence was now far greater than before.

After they left, Li Weizhou looked at the ship beneath him and chuckled to himself. If he hadn't taken over Shan State, there wouldn't have been such a convenient opportunity.

These are now trivial matters, easily accomplished by simply going to his private dock.

Satisfied, he took out his camera and started filming. Such realistic scenes of ancient naval battles could not be filmed on the other side of the world by building sets.

Eight large ships, each with its own design, were seen in three directions, all exuding a chilling aura. The two in the center were the mainstay Fujian ships of Jinghong Valley, with pointed bottoms and wide bows. Their hulls were half a head taller than ordinary Fujian ships. Instead of wind chimes hanging under the eaves of their three-story pavilions, they were covered with iron chains over ten feet long, with iron claws attached to the ends of the chains. These were "flying dragon claws" used for close combat to climb onto the ships.

The most eye-catching feature is on both sides of the deck, where six large crossbows, each made of century-old ironwood, are mounted. The crossbows have a dark, gleaming sheen, and the crossbow strings are made of refined ox sinew, which are taut and straight. The "armor-piercing arrows" in the quiver are nearly ten feet long, with crescent-shaped arrowheads and quenched bluish-black tips that gleam coldly in the sunlight. The arrow tails are also tied with iron chains, indicating a ruthless design that could entangle two ships to death upon impact.

How much hatred must there be...?

There were three large ships on each side, their ironwood hulls as thick as city walls. Dozens of arrow slits were carved into the sides of the ships, and behind each slit lay an archer, whose "repeating crossbows" could be vaguely seen in their hands. These powerful crossbows could fire three arrows at once.

In the middle of the deck stood an even taller "crossbow," which required eight people to operate. The crossbow arm was engraved with ferocious beast patterns, and the arrowheads were as big as bowls, making them "ramming arrows" that could directly pierce through the ship's planks. Next to it, there was a pile of arrowheads half a person's height, like a small silver mountain.

The surrounding sand boats and bird boats swarmed around them like ants. The sand boats had a shallow draft and a wide hull. In addition to long spears and halberds, their decks were piled with bundles of "hook-and-sickle spears," the tips of which were curved like crescent moons and were used to hook the oars of the opposing boats.

The eight large ships were arranged in a figure-eight pattern, making it a perfect formation for the crossbow bolts to cross and cover the area.

Sand ships and bird ships formed a three-layered encirclement around the large ship. The innermost bird ships had already loaded their crossbows, with the arrows pointing directly at the center, ready to unleash a volley of arrows at the command.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty, fishy smell, swept across the deck, making the crossbow strings hum. The shadows of the eight-ox crossbows were cast on the water like countless sharp blades hanging overhead, and even the sound of the waves carried a suffocating sense of oppression.

This feeling can never be created by building a set.

After considering it for a moment, Li Weizhou still did not turn off the camera.

If we want to get better weapons from the University of Tokyo in the future, we'll need some kind of explanation.

He brought out so many ancient gold ornaments, dragon blood rice, and ginseng with extremely high efficacy. It would be impossible for them not to have any ideas.

As it turns out, those old men were smarter than anyone else...

……

"boom!!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

Inexpensive mines, yet so effective.

The eight giant ships should have been virtually invincible in this era. Even if the imperial court sent a large army to attack, they were confident that they could resist with their navy.

Without such strength and foundation, how could Tiannan, with only thirty-six prefectures, dare to harbor rebellious thoughts?

But they never dreamed that such a massive ship would collapse so easily...

After a series of loud explosions, the eight giant ships sank or tilted instantly. Crossbow bolts, broken wood, and human figures rolled in the waves. The once impenetrable formation was now nothing but floating corpses and broken masts swirling in the blood.

"Da da da!"

"Da da da da da!"

The KPV heavy machine gun produced by the Russians is even more powerful than a 20mm aircraft cannon. Apart from being too heavy, it has no other problems.

Li Weizhou didn't even need to use a gun mount; he simply held it with both hands and fired a burst of bullets at the experts rushing in from three directions.

Two ammunition boxes, each with 150 rounds of ammunition. Once they're empty, switch to the machine gun...

"what!!!"

One after another, martial arts masters were shot and killed by hidden weapons before they even got close. How frustrating!

Let alone a Martial Grandmaster, even a Martial Saint would have their inner energy broken and be seriously injured if they took a few hits.

However, there were still some clever people, and someone else came up from the seabed. Just as Li Weizhou was about to run away, the first question from this ghostly old man stunned Li Weizhou: "Your mother is Song Qingyun, and your maternal grandfather is Song Chengxin, right?"

Li Weizhou looked at the old man with a full head of withered white hair, green eyes, and a sunken face that made him look like a ghost, and said, "Is...is that right, you are..."

I was somewhat horrified. Jinghong Valley and Tiannan Prince's Mansion had really gone mad, even colluding with the Demonic Sect.

The old man didn't reply, but instead stretched out his hand, which looked like a black chicken claw, and suddenly grabbed at the water below the surface. Then a scream rang out.

A chubby old man had five bloody holes torn in his head and was screaming in agony.

Someone roared from behind, "Black Demon Old Ghost, have you gone mad?! You've really gone mad, you're insane!"

The old man grinned maliciously, flipped over, and his figure became like a ghost, making it impossible to see clearly. Yet, he was right in front of the man, and with a single claw, he tore open the man's abdomen, tearing out his intestines.

Regardless of who this person was, Li Weizhou seized the opportunity to grab the machine gun and continue firing.

Most of the people he crippled were killed by the old black demon's claws.

Just as Li Weizhou hesitated, wondering whether to kill the old ghost as well, the old ghost turned around with lightning speed and returned, his green eyes fixed on Li Weizhou's face, repeating three times, "Looks like him! Looks like him! Looks like him!"

Li Weizhou chuckled and asked, "Old man, do you know my mother and my maternal grandfather?"

The old man slowly said, "I know you because I am your great-grandfather."

"?"

Li Weizhou blinked, looked at the old monster, and slowly said, "Really? You didn't show up when that bastard, the Demonic Sect Master, killed my maternal grandfather..."

The old ghost's gaunt cheeks twitched, and his eyes turned even greener, giving him a chilling look. He said, "I was tricked into the Demon Cave by that beast Xia Shijie to practice demonic corpse cultivation and demonic arts. I knew nothing about those things. It was only after that beast died that someone told me! But killing him is fine. That piece of trash was utterly useless. He couldn't even compete with that beast Xia Shijie."

Li Weizhou smirked. This was a true demonic cult leader. He said, "So what are you planning to do now? I killed Xia Shijie, so that's revenge. Why don't you continue researching demonic arts? Don't come out, or the Grand Master will come to kill you."

The old black demon laughed like a night owl, cawing, "My demonic arts are only one step away from perfection. Once I master this unparalleled profound skill, what will the Grand Minister of Justice be? Boy, come with me, and I will bestow upon you a great fortune, granting you eternal life! Hehehe!"

Li Weizhou narrowed his eyes, understanding the situation. He nodded and said, "Great-grandfather, wait a moment, I'll leave a message."

He took out a walkie-talkie and said, "My great-grandfather is looking for me. I'll be right back. Please be careful."

Without waiting for a reply, he hung up, then looked at the few demonic corpses still struggling in the sea and said, "These things, did you create them? Do you still want them?"

The old black demon had been watching him intently, not missing a single move. He chuckled and said, "With you, what need is there for those junks? Your ship is quite novel. Set sail and come back to the Holy Church headquarters with me. I will bestow upon you a life of wealth and honor, hehehe!"

Li Weizhou found it amusing and laughed in the old man's tone, "Hehehe! Okay."

The Dark Demon King: "..."
