Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 136 Suddenly a Madman Appears at Night Sharpening His Blade, Chainsaw Sword, and Ship-Slaying Blade!

The news of the guild leader's advancement to the third realm of martial arts vanished without a trace. 👹☝ 6❾丂ℍù𝔵.ᶜỖ𝓜 🐧🍮

This news was tantamount to a war order for all members of the foundation.

The fact that the president, who has always kept his abilities hidden, could break through to a higher realm on his own initiative can only mean one thing: all the peace talks and rhetoric have come to an end, and now all that's left is to actively prepare for war.

Suddenly, news about the foundation disappeared from all media outlets and public opinion.

The foundation, which used to generate eleven mentions out of ten news stories, now doesn't even appear once out of a hundred.

Like the surface of water before a great battle, calm on the surface, yet turbulent undercurrents surge.

It's like two unparalleled masters exchanging vicious threats before the real battle begins: you kill my whole family, I'll wipe out your entire family, each more ruthless than the last.

But when it came to the actual fight, no one bothered with any more threats or gimmicks. Everyone focused intently on observing each other's every move and trying to guess their trump cards and killer moves.

In the chairman's office on the eighteenth floor, a pre-battle meeting was being held.

Everyone looked rather grim; clearly, they were all unsure of what to do in the current situation.

No one knows whether Qin Feng actually wants to attack Zhuolu, or whether he wants to use the attack on Zhuolu as a pretext to pressure Donghai, or whether he is simply trying to settle scores with Donghai while Zhuolu is just making a show of force.

Of course, the last possibility cannot be ruled out: that Zhuolu and Donghai will both be attacked.

The atmosphere in the dark conference room was extremely oppressive. All six of them realized that war was inevitable. Perhaps the previous shouts of fighting were just empty words, but when the chairman himself broke through his cultivation level, it meant that the chairman was ready to get involved.

The chairman has already gone down to the field, so how could anyone else possibly stand on the dry shore?

According to the usual practice of the strategists, since I am going to die, everyone in the world should be buried with me.

The office door opened, and Qin Feng strolled in.

After a morning of rest, Qin Feng seemed to have become a completely different person. His temperament had become much sharper, especially his eyes, which exuded a strong aura of energy. The powerful presence he had made was completely different from when he was in the first realm.

However, this was already the limit of Qin Feng's suppression.

After achieving his breakthrough in the morning, Qin Feng entered the [Illusion Space] for adaptive training, which lasted for a full 600 hours, equivalent to more than twenty days and nights.

If it weren't for the trial, Qin Feng's aura would probably be hundreds of times stronger than it is now.

The six of them stood up in unison. "Greetings, President!"

At this point, there was no longer a significant difference in strength between Qin Feng and these six people.

Such respect is also natural.

The guild leader of the third realm may not be as high as myself, but he has indeed touched the sequence of true qi. With his abundant blood qi accumulation, if you want to suppress him by realm, you would have to enter the seventh realm, the Grandmaster realm.

Qin Feng sat in the president's seat, looking at everyone calmly, "Let's get straight to the point!"

"As things have developed to this point, Qin bears some responsibility for underestimating his opponent."

"I underestimated the ambitions of the East Sea and the hidden power of Zhuolu!"

"I originally thought that Donghai would be swept up in hatred and join forces with us to attack Chentang Pass!"

"Judging from the current situation, Donghai has bigger ambitions. Donghai hopes that we will fight Zhuolu first, and then reap the benefits."

"And Zhuolu has already adopted a fight-to-the-bits attitude; they're determined to fight us to the bitter end!"

"Both sides are tough nuts to crack, and neither side is easy to deal with. Everyone, what are your thoughts? Let's have an open and honest discussion!"

Faced with Qin Feng's words, the people around him exchanged glances. Xinlingjun from the intelligence department spoke up, "Both sides are not easy to deal with, but before deciding on the next countermeasure, it is necessary for our intelligence department to list their backgrounds and their most trusted experts!"

Qin Feng nodded, "Very good, Lord Xinling, please have a long chat!"

Lord Xinling raised his hand and pointed at the projection screen in front of him. A completed PPTT appeared on the screen, showing a huge map of a blessed land shaped like a heart, with the area clearly marked at the top.

The ranges are as follows: yellow has the largest range, followed by cyan, and green has the smallest range.

Lord Xinling walked to the screen, pointed to the area divided into three colored sections, and introduced, "As you can see, this is Zhuolu!"

"The three colors of Zhuolu represent the territories of Chentang Pass and Guanjiang Estuary, respectively, in green and cyan. This yellow area belongs to the Huang family, Huang Feihu!"

"In the past, when King Wu of Zhou, Ji Chang, led his troops to attack King Zhou of Shang and overthrew the Shang Dynasty, the Huang, Yang, and Li families made great contributions and were granted this territory! Over the years, the situations of these three families have varied."

"As it stands now, the Yang family has the highest quality of powerful individuals, the Li family has the largest number of powerful individuals, while the Huang family has neither high quality nor large quantity."

"The strongest member of the Yang family is Yang Chan, the younger sister of Yang Jian, the family head. Because of her beauty and kindness, she often distributes porridge to the common people and is also known as the Third Holy Mother. Her current cultivation level is around the seventh realm!"

"The Li family has the most powerful individuals. Li Nezha's two older brothers each have several sons. The current head of the family is Li Muzha's eldest grandson, named Li Tianxin! He's around the sixth realm! He also has many brothers and sisters, most of whom are at the fifth or sixth realm!"

"As for the Huang family, they are in a rather unfortunate situation. The head of the Huang family is said to be a woman who rarely appears in public, and her specific cultivation level is unknown."

Qin Feng looked at the map and said, "As you said, the Huang family has nothing, so why do they occupy such a large territory?"

Lord Xinling pointed to the yellow territory of the Huang family, which enlarged in size. "A good question, Master. The Huang family has nothing, so how come they occupy half of that territory?"

"Because the Huang family is backed by the Ji family!"

"Huang Feihu betrayed the Shang Dynasty and surrendered to Ji Chang, receiving the greatest reward, but also the greatest shackles. The Zhou royal family and the Huang family had a very close relationship, and almost all of the Huang family's harvest was used to pay tribute to the Zhou royal family."

"Back then, the seven states joined forces to wipe out all the vassal states of the Zhou royal family in the outer universe. In theory, this would have cut off the Zhou royal family's livelihood, and the Zhou emperor should have declined quickly. But in recent years, the Zhou royal family has not only been unaffected, but has also become more and more prosperous."

"The Huang family deserves credit for this."

Crown Prince Dan rubbed his hands together. "So, if we take action against Zhuolu, the Li and Yang families are relatively easy to deal with, as their apparent strength is easy to assess. But the Huang family is a different story; the Zhou royal family will personally intervene."

"Not necessarily," Lord Xinling said. "There's an agreement between the Zhou royal family and the seven states: if the Zhou royal family doesn't intervene, the seven states won't intervene either. Back when we were wiping out those small vassal states of the Zhou emperor from the outer universe, the Zhou royal family fought against each of the seven states, and neither gained the upper hand. This Battle of Zhuolu has nothing to do with the seven states; it's an action of the Hundred Schools of Thought. The Zhou royal family is unlikely to intervene. If they do, we can request the main forces of the seven states to intervene. Back then, the Zhou emperor didn't gain the upper hand even when fighting against the feudal lords of the seven states individually. If the seven states join forces, the Zhou emperor will be completely one-sidedly beaten!"

Lord Mengchang said, "In that case, if the Zhou emperor doesn't intervene, neither can the seven states. The entire Battle of Zhuolu can only rely on our foundation."

Lord Xinling said, "Before I came here, I met with the envoys of the seven states, including Qin. All seven states made it clear that they would not intervene unless the Zhou emperor intervened. If the Zhou emperor intervened, the war would escalate, and the seven states would break off relations."

"Therefore, the Battle of Zhuolu will take place, but it will not be on a large scale. It will be more of a limited war within a controlled area."

"I even suspect that those Martial Grandmasters, Martial Gods, and Martial Saints above the national standard might not even appear!"

Lord Chunshen interrupted Wei Wuji, saying, "I think you are being too optimistic. Zhuolu is the last few acres of land for the Zhou royal family. If we give up Zhuolu, the Zhou royal family may not be able to support those royal children. Even if they are reluctant to leave the seven states on the surface, they will definitely send out experts to use some means in secret. We must estimate this war based on the worst possible outcome."

Huang Xie believed that the eighth, ninth, and tenth realms, and even the eleventh realm of terrestrial immortals, must be included in the scope, along with divine mechs!

Lord Xinling looked at Lord Chunshen and said, "If we calculate it according to your method, the amount of information required and the data warfare calculations would be enormous, and our intelligence department simply cannot complete the task."

Lord Chunshen said, "I am stating the facts. As for the calculations of the war, I think a rough estimate is sufficient. There is no need to be too precise. Once the war begins, it will be an uncertain number. Until the very end, no one can know the outcome."

Lord Xinling looked at Qin Feng, "What does the guild leader think?"

Qin Feng looked at the two men and said, "Lord Chunshen and Lord Xinling's plans are both correct. The addition of extraordinary forces above the eighth realm can indeed easily disrupt the battle, but we are not without experts on our side. Master Meng, at the Great Perfection of the eleventh realm, can sweep away all extraordinary forces alone. In a sense, the addition of individual extraordinary forces cannot change the overall battle situation!"

"Therefore, the plan for Zhuolu will proceed according to Lord Chunshen's intelligence department's plan, but on a strategic level, we will have Master Meng oversee Zhuolu to prevent supernatural forces from intervening in the battle!"

At this moment, Lord Mengchang said again, "While the arrangement by the Master is excellent, what if a transcendent master appears in Zhuolu, and Master Meng goes to confront this transcendent being, and then something unexpected happens in the East Sea? If the East Sea supports Zhuolu, we will be surrounded!"

Lord Pingyuan sighed, "Making dumplings is nothing, what I fear is that extraordinary masters will also appear in the East Sea. If Master Meng is overwhelmed, we will be the ones who are truly at a disadvantage."

Qin Feng looked at everyone and asked, "How many hidden experts does the East Sea have?"

Lord Xinling hurriedly pulled out another PowerPoint presentation, saying, "At this stage, the four most powerful figures in the East Sea are the four Dragon Lords of the East, South, West, and North, ranked according to their respective directions. They are all at the seventh realm, with the East Sea Dragon Lord having the highest realm, possibly even a pseudo-eighth realm!"

Qin Feng asked, "What about extraordinary powers? What about those at the eighth realm and above?"

Lord Xinling said, "Those at the eighth realm and above are currently unknown, but I have a guess, a very bold guess, which may be disrespectful to the celestial beings."

Qin Feng spoke up, "Everyone here is one of us. Our foundation's headquarters is shielded from celestial secrets by the Observatory, so it will not be spied on by fate. Please speak freely."

Lord Xinling said calmly, "The Zhang family!"

Qin Feng was taken aback. "The Zhang family? Which Zhang family?"

Lord Xinling, with his hands behind his back, said, "This has to do with a legend of immortals. It is said that during the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Haotian built a heavenly palace called the Heavenly Court. This Heavenly Court was modeled after the Heavenly Court of the Eastern Emperor lineage of the demon race in ancient times. It ruled over all matters of the mountains and rivers and the righteous gods except for the human emperor. If it were in our modern times, it would be called the leader of the martial arts world! It would be a Jianghu court! In terms of authority, compared with the human court, it would be a makeshift organization."

"After Haotian, the Dongyi tribe lost control of the Heavenly Court. Later, the Ancestor took control of the Heavenly Court and wanted to build it into a true political power."

"At that time, they carried out a grand plan, which was to arrange for a person to experience all the tribulations of the human world, thereby creating a super tribulation lord, the Heavenly Emperor. This Heavenly Emperor would bear all the tribulations of heaven, earth, and humanity, and thus have the power to govern the three realms."

"The ultimate title for this candidate is the Jade Emperor of the Azure Heaven!"

"In fact, the decline of the human dynasty, the fall of the Shang dynasty, the weakening of the Zhou royal family, and the transformation of the human emperor into the emperor were all actions taken by the heavens to actively weaken imperial power in order to pave the way for this Jade Emperor."

"If the Jade Emperor of Haotian is to be established, it means that the celestial beings have stepped out from behind the scenes and into the foreground, formally establishing the order of heaven, earth, and humanity, with divine authority surpassing human rights."

"This conspiracy theory was very popular during the Spring and Autumn Period. Some even claimed that the plan was nearing its end, and that the Jade Emperor would soon appear and the Heavenly Court would be established!"

"And this Jade Emperor's surname is Zhang. Although his given name is unknown, the Zhang family has an extremely powerful foundation!"

"In recent years, the Zhang family has been continuously strengthening its control over the original base of the Mountain and River Gods. The Four Seas Dragon Lords are legitimate Mountain and River Gods and are also targets of the Zhang family's efforts to win them over. If the East Sea causes trouble, the Zhang family will definitely stand up for the East Sea."

"If the Zhang family doesn't step forward, no one will follow the Heavenly Court anymore, and the foundation will be ruined. Many mountain and river deities might even consider following the Human King and waiting for the birth of a new Human King!"

"Therefore, we must consider how to deal with the Zhang family's situation!"

After Lord Xinling finished speaking, the vice-chairmen of King Zhou remained silent. Faced with an opponent they did not know how to deal with, no one knew what to do!

Qin Feng listened to these words and understood perfectly: the Jade Emperor Haotian was none other than Zhang Bairen, the old Jade Emperor!

What I'm experiencing now really is the prequel to Journey to the West!

Although Zhang Bairen's tribulation is about to be completed, it does not mean that he has already achieved perfection!

And even if you, Zhang Bairen, achieve perfection, what can you do? Can you really control those gods in the Investiture of the Gods? I bet even a monkey could make you crawl under the table!

To deal with the Jade Emperor, we must use the Great Sage!

The Jade Emperor bestowed upon him the title of Supreme Being of Heaven.

The monkey was born and raised in the world, and was the master of the Journey to the West.

Zhang Bairen left the mountain before achieving the Great Perfection.

They started fighting before the monkeys were even born.

What a perfect matchmaking system!

Qin Feng could even picture Zhang Bairen standing on the sea with a faint smile.

Then he sat on the stone that the monkey had turned into and asked the Jade Emperor with a smile, "Do you dare to touch a single finger of mine?"

Everyone looked worried, but the president laughed out loud.

This prompted the other six vice presidents to all look at Qin Feng, asking, "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Feng coughed and said, "I'll deal with the Zhang family! You don't need to worry about them!"

Lord Xinling hesitated, looking at Qin Feng. "Is the guild leader sure?"

"Confirmed!" Qin Feng said. "I'll deal with the Zhang family. Who should speak now? Let's continue."

Although everyone was wondering in their hearts who the Zhang family was, how could you agree so readily? Are you sure you can handle the Zhang family? They are the leaders of the Three Realms, nurtured by the Celestials!

But Qin Feng is, after all, the charioteer of the saint, so perhaps he knows some inside information that we don't.

Then, Prince Dan stepped onto the stage and unfurled a military formation map, saying, "At present, the Armed Forces' mech reinforcement brigade has assembled three thousand mechs. After communicating with Hongmeng Abyss and equipping them with Xuan weapons, the mechs are generally of the upper Xuan grade, with over five hundred even reaching the Earth grade!"

"In addition to the main force of the 3,000-strong mech battalion, we are also equipped with a 1,000-strong Zhao border cavalry combat group, a 1,000-strong Qi Gauss rifle sniper battalion, 500 Wei Wuzu magnetic storm infantry, a Chu Shenxi fleet, and 100 Qi light armor assassins!"

"The main combat force consists of 10,000 people, 10,000 people are in logistical support, and there are about 30,000 elite space troops."

"Without a doubt, the mechs are the main force, undertaking the assault mission. The feat of three thousand classical mechs is unprecedented in the Seven Kingdoms! The most powerful mech division in the Seven Kingdoms, Qin, has at most five hundred mechs, while this time we have a super-large-scale legion of three thousand mechs! The mechs are equipped with a rich weapon system, including chainsaw swords, ship-slaying swords, chainsaw blades, fusion atomic cannons, long-range defense systems, and multi-functional interactive operation systems."

At this point, Prince Dan raised his hand and projected a terrifying 3D weapon image. "This is a newly developed artillery piece, which I call the Light of Peace Map Modifier."

As everyone stared at the long, dark barrel of the cannon, especially the three sets of reaction furnace frames at the rear, Lord Mengchang couldn't help but exclaim, "A planet-destroying cannon? You didn't just take the planet-destroying cannon off your spaceship, did you?!"

"What's a planet-destroying cannon? It's a planet-destroying cannon when it's mounted on a spaceship! But it's not when it's taken off!" Prince Dan said with a smile. "I've given it a name: Fortress Cannon!"

Lord Mengchang replied stiffly, "Is there a difference?"

"First of all, the names are different!" Prince Dan vividly described the cannon in front of him. "Compared to a name as aggressive as the Planet Destroyer Cannon, my Fortress Cannon has a more imposing and sturdy feel!"

"Secondly, the targets are different! The planet-destroying cannon is mainly for destroying planets! The fortress cannon is mainly for attacking fortresses and castles! One is primarily for destruction, while the other is for targeted demolition, which is precise and controllable!"

"Finally, it's easy to carry! The Star Destroyer Cannon requires a spaceship to be activated and takes a long time to charge up before it can be fired, but mine has been miniaturized! Ten people can carry it around, and it can also be disassembled and reassembled! One hundred of the 30,000 elite space troops have been deployed to carry out demolition operations of fixed military facilities."

Lord Xinling clapped his hands and said, "The miniaturization of the Star Destroyer Cannon breaks the public pressure that its excessive power prevents its indiscriminate use. It truly proves the saying that technological progress lies in renaming! Change the name, and weapons of mass destruction become common weapons, and no one will criticize you for it! Your Highness Crown Prince Dan truly deserves to be called an arms dealer; I admire you greatly!"

Everyone applauded, but Qin Feng frowned and sat there without saying a word.

Prince Dan looked at Qin Feng, "What does the guild leader think?"

Qin Feng said, "I think one hundred units is a bit too few. How about we add a zero to the end?"

After pausing for a moment, Prince Dan hesitated and said, "Well, it's not impossible, but I checked the fortresses in Zhuolu, and it seems we don't need that many. Each fortress requires ten people, so a thousand fortresses would be ten thousand people. The remaining twenty thousand people would be responsible for patrolling and cleaning up the battlefield, transporting supplies..."

Qin Feng said, "Then let's recruit people, and bring the number of recruits for the mecha squad to 100,000!"

Prince Dan said, "Doing this would exceed the personnel quota given to us by the seven kingdoms!"

Qin Feng rubbed his hands together. "Can't you use your initiative a little and do something shady? Give out some temporary positions, come up with some new titles, like 'servant in the army' or something!"

"The quotas aren't limited, they're drawn up!"

"If you can name a planet-destroying cannon 'Peaceful Journey,' why can't you create a mech squad, a mech company, or a miniature mech platoon?!"

"The current situation is that the seven kingdoms are using our foundation as a weapon to test the Zhou royal family's strength. They'd love to supply us with resources and weapons!"

"As long as our excuses aren't too outrageous, they'll agree! If they really don't, won't you just offer them gifts? You've been in the arms trade for so long, you must be very good at dragging people down with you!"

"Use any means necessary to build up the team first; whether it's compliant with regulations or not, we'll worry about that after the battle!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Dan instantly understood and nodded repeatedly. "I understand, thank you for your guidance, Guild Master. I'll go and do it right away! Expand the queue!"

Qin Feng asked, "Is there anything else?"

Several vice presidents took turns going on stage, some to boast about their achievements, and others to complain.

Those who want to claim credit will be awarded later, while those who complain should have their problems addressed quickly; efficiency is key.

The meeting lasted from morning until night before finally coming to an end.

The enormous foundation, like a complex machine, began to operate frantically.
