God-slaughtering Battle King

C40 The Declining King of Tang



C40 The Declining King of Tang

0The next day, Lin Yue slowly opened his eyes in the carriage and found it was already noon.    

    

He opened the curtain and saw Hwa Zhuyin driving the carriage forward.    

    

"You're awake?" Hwa Zhuyin turned her head and looked, "There is some dry food in the carriage. If you are hungry, you should eat first."    

    

Lin Yue nodded and looked around at the unfamiliar environment.    

    

"We have already left the city a hundred miles away." Hwa Zhuyin said.    

    

"We must have cheated Qin Zheng a lot of money this time." Lin Yue said with a smile.    

    

"What do you mean by cheated? I really don't know how to speak. I'm just helping him spend the flowers!" Hwa Zhuyin perked up, "I didn't expect you to be so valuable. I asked him for a hundred taels of gold. He actually agreed without thinking. "    

    

"A hundred taels of gold? Ruthless enough." Lin Yue gave her a thumbs up, "Then shouldn't you give me half of it?"    

    

"What are you thinking? This bit of money is not enough to buy a good herb." Hwa Zhuyin hurriedly shook her head. "How about this. I'll take care of the food and accommodation this time. That should be enough, right?"    

    

Lin Yue was speechless. This trip, all the expenses were calculated. At most, it would be 200 silver taels.    

    

It seemed like wanting to get money from this money-grubber was even harder than ascending the heavens.    

    

The two of them didn't stop. Ten days later, they finally arrived at Burning Domain.    

    

Along the way, they saw many people rushing towards the Burning Domain.    

    

Lin Yue and the other man had already finished disguising themselves in the carriage, so they were not afraid that the people from the Ox Region would recognize them.    

    

The Spiritual Fire was very tempting to every cultivator, but only very few people could possess it.    

    

Apart from the opportunity, it was also an extremely important reason why they could subdue the Spiritual Fire.    

    

Some people who obtained the Spiritual Fire were wrapped by the Spiritual Fire before they were refined, turning into ashes.    

    

In addition, the Ten Thousand Fire Space was filled with danger. Over the past hundred years, hundreds of thousands of people had died here.    

    

This made many cultivators, especially those who were far away from the Burning Domain, who knew that they could not refine and use the Spiritual Fire, give up immediately.    

    

Even so, every time the Ten Thousand Fire Space opened, it would attract tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.    

    

After all, once the Spiritual Fire was successfully cultivated, its combat strength would skyrocket. This temptation was too great.    

    

Especially for alchemists, once they had their own Spiritual Fire, they would have a qualitative improvement in their alchemy.    

    

Lin Yue's first impression of Burning Domain was that it was bustling with activity. The streets were all over the place, and shops were everywhere. People were coming and going everywhere.    

    

The influx of tens of thousands of people also brought business opportunities to the Burning Domain.    

    

The restaurants and inns close to the Ten Thousand Fire Space were already packed with people, and there was no way to reserve a room.    

    

"I heard that the authority of the Burning Domain has declined, but I didn't expect it to be so prosperous." Lin Yue praised.    

    

He and Hwa Zhuyin had already disguised themselves, so he wasn't afraid of being recognized.    

    

Back then, Qin Zheng's fiancée was a concubine's daughter of Heterosexual King from Burning Domain.    

    

The ruler of the Burning Domain was the Royal City of Wang Family. It was just that over the years, the Tang Family's control over the various families under them had become weaker and weaker, causing the decline of the royal power.    

    

However, the Daxuan Country was still a reliance, and the Tang Family would not be replaced.    

    

"It is indeed much more prosperous than the Qin Family, but what should we do now? There are no more guest rooms." Hwa Zhuyin asked.    

    

"Let's go and buy a few maps first." Lin Yue walked to the street. There were a lot of people selling maps, and they all specially marked the location of Ten Thousand Fire Space.    

    

Every time the Ten Thousand Fire Space was opened, the location would be the same, and the markings were very precise.    

    

"This is a continuous mountain range. The Ten Thousand Fire Space is right in the middle of this mountain range. How many days until it opens?" Lin Yue carefully checked the map.    

    

"Three days." Hwa Zhuyin said.    

    

"Let's go buy two horses first. Let's ride there today." Lin Yue said.    

    

The horse that had brought them here was already running out of strength. They could no longer continue running.    

    

"Are you not going to find a place to stay?" Hwa Zhuyin asked.    

    

"Yes. Besides, there is no place to stay." Lin Yue nodded.    

    

After the two of them bought their horses, they went straight to the Ten Thousand Fire Space.    

    

Along the way, there was an endless stream of people. There were also many people who went ahead of time.    

    

The two of them rode for three hours. The road ahead was rugged and difficult to travel on. The horses could not continue forward, so they could only walk.    

    

They continued on for two hours before arriving at a mountain peak.    

    

"The flat area in the middle is the opening place of Ten Thousand Fire Space." Hwa Zhuyin pointed to the empty ground in the middle and said.    

    

Lin Yue looked around and saw that the surrounding mountains had wrapped around a round flat area.    

    

The flat area was about ten miles wide and the ground was covered with sand and sand. Only a few sparse vegetation covered the area.    

    

Lin Yue carefully looked around the surroundings and started to slowly walk down the mountain. He carefully remembered the terrain and environment of each place.    

    

At this time, the sky had already darkened, but there were more and more people.    

    

Lin Yue used the darkness of the night to put a few small flags in a certain place from time to time.    

    

"Are you setting up a formation?" Hwa Zhuyin said in a low voice.    

    

Lin Yue nodded. Although he did not know if these were useful, it was better to be prepared for the unexpected.    

    

In the end, he went to various parts of the mountain and chose a suitable place to set up the formation.    

    

Hwa Zhuyin was becoming more and more unable to see through this man in front of her. Not only was his combat strength astonishing, he even knew how to set up a formation. She really didn't know what else he didn't know.    

    

"Alright, we can rest here." Lin Yue set up the last formation outside a cave and entered to rest.    

    

Setting up formations consumed a lot of spiritual energy and spiritual energy. If it wasn't for the constant replenishment from the Fiendgod Pagoda, he wouldn't have been able to set up so many formations in one go.    

    

Hwa Zhuyin saw that he was a bit tired and tactfully did not say anything. She sat next to him and meditated.    

    

Wait. When Lin Yue opened his eyes again, it was already two days later. An overbearing aura rushed out of his eyes, making people feel fear.    

    

However, in the next moment, the aura was completely retracted into his body.    

    

"Let's go and witness the opening of the Ten Thousand Fire Space." Hwa Zhuyin said.    

    

Lin Yue nodded and walked out of the cave. He could see people everywhere.    

    

Although there was still a day before the Ten Thousand Fire Space opened, everyone had arrived early to find a good place.    

    

There was not a single person in the huge open space at the foot of the mountain. According to his previous experiences, the moment the Ten Thousand Fire Space was opened, there would be a ball of fire covering the flat land.    

    

The power of the fire was boundless, it could melt the sand and stones in an instant.    

    

Although everyone wanted to get closer to the opening, they didn't dare to wait on the flat land.    

    

"Big Brother, I must get the Spiritual Fire this time." Not far from Lin Yue, a girl said firmly.    

    

"Little Wan, you can't force anything." A tall man beside her said, "I know that this matter has dealt a huge blow to you, but don't be too impulsive. The Spiritual Fire is not a joke. If you are not careful, you will be burnt to ashes."    

    

"Big Brother, you are wrong. I am happy that my marriage was revoked. I have never seen that guy called Qin Zheng before. He actually wants to marry him. This is ridiculous." The woman said.    

    

Lin Yue raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman.    

    

The girl was wearing purple clothes and had an egg-shaped face. She should be around seventeen years old. She had a youthful face and long hair, making her look very cute.    

    

From what she said, she was the concubine of King Tang, and also Qin Zheng's fiancee, Tang Wan'er.    

    

Lin Yue touched his nose. He did not expect to meet her here so coincidentally.    

    

Qin Zheng regretted his marriage and married Qin Lan. It was his suggestion at the beginning.    

    

In fact, he felt a little guilty about Tang Wan'er before. After all, it was his suggestion that caused Qin Zheng to cancel the engagement.    

    

Today, it seemed that Tang Wan'er was quite happy about the cancellation of the marriage.    

    

"It's good that you can think that way. But why must you insist on finding the Spiritual Fire?" The man said in a low voice, "Your cultivation speed is already very fast. It's only a matter of time before you enter the Star-treading Stage. Why take the risk?"    

    

"Big brother, now that the royal power has fallen, the four big families are showing signs of losing control. If I obtain the Spiritual Fire, I will be able to enter the Star-treading Stage as soon as possible so that they can restrain themselves." Tang Wan'er said.    

    

The man was silent for a moment. As the eldest son of the Tang Family, he was unable to help Royal Father stabilize the royal power, and he even made his little sister worry about him. It was really useless.    

    

"Brother, trust me. Everything will be fine." Tang Wan'er pulled the man's arm and said.    

    

The man smiled and was about to say something when he saw a few people coming over. His face changed.    

    

"Yo, isn't this young master Tang Chen and Tang? They are also here to find the Spiritual Fire?" The leader of the group, a man in green, spoke first.    

    

"Zhao Yao, what do you mean by that? Why can't I come? " Tang Chen glared at him.    

    

Zhao Yao was the eldest son of the Zhao Family, the biggest family in Burning Domain. He had always been disrespectful to Tang Chen.    

    

The Zhao Family had a Spiritual Fire that was passed down from their ancestors. The patriarch of the Zhao Family had already broken through to the Star-treading Stage. This gave him the right to show off.    

    

"It's nothing. I was just a little surprised, haha." Zhao Yao laughed.    

    

Tang Chen frowned. He had been annoyed by this kid for a long time. This time, he would definitely find an opportunity to teach this kid a lesson in Ten Thousand Fire Space.    

    

"The Spiritual Fire isn't that easy to control. It's better to be careful not to be burned to ashes." Zhao Yao left with a smile on his face.    

    

"You!" A trace of anger appeared on Tang Chen's face.    

    

"Brother, this is more important. Don't lower yourself to his level." Tang Wan'er looked at Zhao Yao with disgust.    

    

"Yes, don't lower yourself to my level. What knowledge can a woman who has been revoked have? Haha." Zhao Yao walked away proudly.    

    

His voice was very loud, and some people had already noticed Tang Chen and his sister.    

    

"It's the young master of Tang Family. I didn't expect him to be here this time, and Tang Wan'er as well." Some people started discussing in low voices.    

    

"It's within my expectation. Right now, the Tang Family is only counting on the cultivation genius Tang Wan'er. If she can obtain the Spiritual Fire and enter the Star-treading Stage, she will be able to shock the four big families." Another person said in a low voice.    

    

"What a pity. The Tang Family is so big, but they are counting on a woman..."    

    

Tang Chen's face turned pale, and he clenched his fist tightly.    

    

Lin Yue silently sighed. He never thought that King Tang's prestige would decline to such an extent.    

    

If this was the Royal City of Qin Family, no one would dare to say such words to Qin Gaang or Qin Zheng. They would have been beheaded long ago.    

    

More and more people arrived. The sky gradually darkened. Everyone seemed to be nervous.    

    

Everyone patiently waited, their eyes staring straight at the flat open space, afraid of missing something.    

    

Time passed bit by bit. It was already midnight and there was still no movement.    

    

Some people began to get irritated, and some even suspected that there was a mistake in the opening time of the Ten Thousand Fire Space.    

    

Just as everyone was discussing amongst themselves, the entire land shook violently!
