Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

”Father, I’m going to check on the battle situation with my elder brother and Chongming.”

With the crisis in Yunshui City over, Shen Wen’an immediately wanted to see the situation on the front lines.

”No need.”

Shen Yuan looked at his youngest son with a bit of heartache.

For so many years, it had always been him running around and risking his life for the Shen Family.

”I have already divined and this time the major operation will not be dangerous.”

”Let your elder brother and Chongming have more experience.”

Shen Wen’an hesitated slightly before nodding, ”In that case, I will first take some rest; I’ll leave things here to you, Father.”

Having repeatedly slaughtered the generals of the Profound Goose Army and Profound Kui Army of Fushan Country, and now using Sword Intent to annihilate the Yao Mountain Army, he had consumed substantial energy and urgently needed to rest well to be ready for any sudden incidents.

...

Yingchuan County.

With Shen Wenxing and Shen Chongming leading the way, two great armies of the Shen Family, assisted by the Snow Wolf King, a Great Demon at the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm, quickly annexed half of Yingchuan County.

Though Wushi Ao, the highest commander of Fushan Country in Yangnao Land, still had the Profound Scale Army and Fengwu Army, he dared not dispatch them lightly to face the enemy.

He was afraid that Shen Wen’an, the God of Slaughter, was lurking somewhere waiting for the two armies to appear.

Without the Profound Scale Army and Fengwu Army to hold them off, the two great armies of the Shen Family advanced unimpeded in Yingchuan County, swiftly seizing more than fifteen city walls.

Inside the palace of Yingchuan County City.

Wushi Ao’s face was ashen, and the commanders of the Profound Scale Army and Fengwu Army did not dare to breathe heavily.

Just now, Wushi Ao had sent a message for help to the sovereign Wushi Puppet, far in the Southern Border, right in front of them.

But Wushi Puppet’s intention was for them to conserve their strength and find a way to regain lost ground after this major operation.

”Someone comes!”

Wushi Ao’s expression changed several times, coldly calling out.

Two Personal Guard Soldiers hurriedly came forward and cupped their hands.

”Where have Shen Family’s two great armies reached now?”

Looking at the map before him, Wushi Ao pressed his hand to his forehead in frustration and asked in a deep voice.

”Reporting to Prince, according to earlier intelligence, the two great armies of the Shen Family bypassed the county city and moved eastward.”

To the east...

Wushi Ao glanced at the map.

East of Yingchuan was Three Mountains County.

”Is their target... Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm?”

After occupying Three Mountains County, Fushan Country also discovered the existence of the Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm.

However, due to the restriction that only cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Realm could enter, Fushan Country had sent many people to explore it over the years, only to find some Spirit Medicine and a few damaged Ancient Magical Artifacts.

There were no significant benefits to be gained.

”Prince, are they trying to seize Three Mountains County too?”

The General of the Fengwu Army stepped forward with a frown, speaking.

Wushi Ao heavily sighed, his gaze sweeping over the map filled with Shen Family’s flags, ”Let them fight.”

”In a few days, this major operation will be over.”

”Once Brother Huang sends reinforcements over, we can slowly take it back.”

”General Feng Wu, you now take people to Xiang County to capture some blood offerings, and once the major operation is over, send them back to the Southern Border to answer to His Majesty.”

The forces of the Southern Border were like this; if they could not seize blood offerings from others, they could only harvest from their own common people.

Over time, with so many of them being harvested, it would lead to a void between harvests.

”Yes!”

General Feng Wu accepted the order and left the great hall.

...

The month-long major operation soon came to an end.

This time, as the Shen Family’s two great armies advanced, they captured a total of twenty-seven city walls in Yingchuan and Three Mountains County.

Such a terrifying record immediately made other nearby forces in the Southern Border feel intensely threatened.

Immediately, Yin Corpse Sect and Jianan Temple, which bordered the Shen Family, ordered at the end of the major operation to restrict their cultivators from crossing the border to provoke the Shen Family.

At the same time, they deployed heavy troops to guard the city walls along their borders with the Shen Family.

Mid-October, the weather turned cold, and the north wind howled.

Half a month after the second major operation, Luo Yao arrived in Yunshui City using Wind Manipulation.

In the side room, after the household staff served hot tea, Shen Chongming spoke, ”How did Luoxia Mountain fare this time, in terms of losses?”

As soon as Luo Yao arrived, he noticed her weariness.

Apparently, Jianan Temple’s resistance must have exceeded Luoxia Mountain’s expectations.

This time, confronting Jianan Temple, Luoxia Mountain suffered quite a setback.

Luo Yao sipped some tea delicately, shook her head with a bitter smile, ”Those baldies really have impressive skills.”

”Although Luoxia Mountain’s disciples didn’t suffer major casualties, many were wounded by Jianan Temple’s Secret Skills.”

Secret Skills?

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming’s thoughts stirred, ”Do you know the specific effects of those Secret Skills from Jianan Temple?”

Every ten years, the eight major forces would have a major operation, and Shen Family still had a chance of confronting Jianan Temple. If they could know their tactics beforehand, they could be better prepared.

Luo Yao pondered for a moment, ”The Buddhist Techniques of Jianan Temple are somewhat akin to a combination of Body Cultivator and Immortal Dao Cultivator.”

”Their bodies are sturdy, and they are skilled in various Buddhist Techniques.”

”If it were just these, they wouldn’t be too hard to deal with.”

”But what’s most troublesome is their kind of karma attack and a strange Secret Skill called the ’Seed of Destiny Transformation Scripture.’”

”The former can ignore a cultivator’s Spiritual Power Shield and directly invoke karma to entangle them.”

”Any cultivator who has killed living beings and whose Dao Heart is insufficient will give birth to a Heart Demon when entangled in karma, causing chaos on the spot.”

”Even those with a strong Dao Heart will still be somewhat affected, and their strength will be significantly reduced.”
