Ancestor Above-Chapter 436
436 The plan
The dozen or so people standing below the high platform had expressions of both sadness and joy.
The ones who were happy were, of course, those who had successfully broken through. However, there were still one-third of people who failed to break through.
These dozen or so people were the peak jiedan stage experts who had agreed to break through ten years ago.
Of course, the few from the Lu family were not inside. They had made sufficient preparations. Lu Qing would naturally help and protect them. He would lead them to break through first.
Out of the dozen of people, the main sources were still three-the Imperial court, the Qingfeng sect, and the Yunxiao sect.
Among them, Yunxiao sect definitely had the most cultivators.
In addition, there were two other people who were from Qi country. They were the mainstays of two aristocratic families in Qi country. 𝗳re𝚎𝚠𝐞𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝗲l. c૦𝓶
The reason why they were qualified to receive Lu Qing’s help was, of course, because their two clans were the two clans in the Qi state that had sided with the Lu clan the fastest.
Although some of them failed, in general, there were still more than ten Yuanying cultivators in this wave.
Without a doubt, this would be a great help to both Yan and Qi, especially Yan.
Although nascent soul cultivators were not like Dharma cultivators, who could fight against a country alone, they were still a rare high-end combat force. Without the appearance of the Dharma, the nascent soul cultivators were enough to determine the outcome of the battle.
With the addition of these ten nascent soul realm cultivators, Lu Qing’s next plan would be easier to execute.
......
The ten newly-born nascent soul cultivators were not in a hurry to leave. Instead, they first cultivated on Yuyan mountain. They were also arranged to deal with the time fragments in various parts of the country of Yan after their cultivation base was more stable.
He had just advanced to the nascent Soul Stage, so it was very unstable to fight for the five-star Fragment directly. However, there were still many four-star Fragments, so he could let them go and clean them up.
Of course, clearing the shards was one thing. The other important thing was to get the two rewards after clearing the time shard.
Regardless of whether it was the ‘gift of time’ or the ‘origin Source Seed’, it was very beneficial for those who had just crossed the bottleneck and advanced to the nascent Soul Stage, stabilizing their cultivation, and even allowing their cultivation to reach a higher level.
Lu Qing had given them one year.
While they were working hard to stabilize their cultivation, groups of elite cultivators of the Yan Kingdom were leaving from the sea.
They didn’t travel by land, but by sea. With the help of the sea tribes under bo wan, the Prince of Yan, they had unknowingly hidden themselves in the sea area to the East of Wu State.
This process wasn’t too smooth. To human cultivators, the ocean was not a traditional territory. There were many members of the sea Race in the sea. The sea routes opened up by humans usually had to go around these sea tribes, otherwise it would be too dangerous-even if they took a large flying boat, it would not be much safer than a ship on the sea.
However, it would be a different matter if he had the help of bo wan, the Overlord of the sea.
Lu Qing personally sent a letter to bo wan and asked for his help.
The two of them were now considered allies. This time, he didn’t need bo wan to join the battle. He just needed to help and escort him with his subordinates to ensure that they wouldn’t be disturbed by other sea tribes.
The ocean was very large. In this Ocean World, bo wan wasn’t the only Dharma plane existence. Along the way, they really did attract the attention of a big shark.
Bo wan personally went up and communicated with the other party.
The strength of the two was similar, and more importantly, there was no completely irreconcilable conflict between them. After weighing each other’s options, they realized that no one could do anything to the other, so there was no need to fight each other to the death.
The shark simply made way for them. Bo wan wasn’t here to invade, and neither were the human cultivators. The shark didn’t continue to block them.
The number of cultivators who had been escorted through the border was not particularly large, only about a thousand. However, the quality was very high. All of them were cultivators above the initial enlightenment stage, and there were even golden core and nascent soul cultivators.
In the past, if the Yan Kingdom wanted to send such a team, they would have to use almost all the strength of the country. But now, although the pressure was still great, it was still okay. The defense work in his country could still be maintained.
And the target of this group of cultivators was Wu country.
This was an out-and-out big move!
Lu Qing had made up his mind to attack the Wu nation.
It was time to hurry up. “The earlier I integrate a region into my system, the earlier I can use the power of that region.
And now, it was a very good opportunity.
The Yan Kingdom was already very powerful, and the Qi Kingdom’s forces had also been unified. At least, they were now at the point where they could be used.
As long as they could take down Wu country, their next target would be Wei country. At that time, great Wei would also be completely surrounded from north to south. To the North was the Yan Kingdom, to the East was the Qi Kingdom, and to the South was the Wu Kingdom. With such a big pocket surrounding the Wei Kingdom, it would be really difficult for them to find any means to turn the tables.
......
The war against Wu country had been prepared for almost a whole year. In fact, the 10 advanced cultivators who had just broken through to the Yuanying stage were also preparing for this matter.
Of course, there were thousands of high-level cultivators and more than a dozen nascent soul cultivators leading the team. This force was elite enough, but it was obviously impossible to carry out a war to destroy a country with this.
After all, they still needed to put in the corresponding forces on the battlefield.
And the one who played this role was Qi.
When the ten nascent soul cultivators arrived at the eastern sea area of Wu country and hid there, Qi country officially declared war on Wu country.
In a short time, the Qi Army had pressed to the border. After winning two battles, they triumphantly advanced.
However, the commander of the Qi Kingdom’s Army, Grandmaster Wei Yun, was not in a good mood.
Although she had doubted great Wu’s ability to resist given its current condition, she was not sure if great Wu would be able to do so. However, no matter what, they were still one of the nine great immortal empires, so they shouldn’t be so weak after being suppressed by the Army.
In particular, during this process, it didn’t seem like the other party couldn’t win. It was more like a strategic surrender.
Sure enough, after experiencing two smooth battles, the Qi Army had run into a solid defense line.
On the border of Yangzhou, the Wu State had already established a large-scale defense line connected by many spiritual veins. The Qi Army had been attacking for half a month, and they had suffered great losses, but they still couldn’t take down the enemy.
