Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Enemy Nation

now it seemed there might be no opportunity for advancement.The three thousand rooms carved into the depths of the First Inner Palace were not his fortress, but more like his tomb.He needed to find a...“You’re... surprisingly calm. So calm that it makes me feel like I'm the one trapped in a deadly game.” Ren Qiu’s eyes were as clear as mirrors, seemingly trying to pierce through some emotion: “Your friend is still out there. You don't worry about him”

Jiang Wang had no emotion: "As long as I don't die, Wen Jingxiu won't dare to kill Bai Yuxia. And you can't kill me."

Ren Qiu'li was very willing to continue the question-and-answer session because she wanted to wait for the evolution of the "Mirror River of Time and Space, Heavenly Machine Array".

On both sides of the corridor, the inscriptions on the walls that Jiang Wang's fingers had once brushed against suddenly burst into white flames.

Jiang Wang was also willing to talk with her because he needed more insight.

Two people about to face each other in a life-or-death struggle share an unspoken understanding at this moment.

Jiang Wang stood at the boundary between the corridor and the prison cell. Behind him was a semi-transparent corridor, and before him were Ren Qiu Li and her line chair. The lines dividing his gaze had a dangerous sense of tearing Ren Qiu Li herself apart.

Dou Zhao's body was severed, Tian Xia was also cut off his hand, under such circumstances jumping into the Abi hell, it is indeed impossible to see the possibility of survival.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

But Jiang Wang said, "That is to say, you did not see him die with your own eyes."

"Is there a difference" Ren Qiu-li asked.

Jiang Wang said: "As the number one expert in computing power, you should know that since a possibility exists, the outcome is not absolute."

Ren Qiu left silent for a moment.

She couldn't help but wonder, is there still "possibility" in this game today

She was reluctant to admit it, but it was the battle with Dou Zhao that made her resolve to clear Jiang Wang for Lu Shuanghe before the final battle began.

She had seen many killers in her life, but Lu Shuanghai was the best. His timing was impeccable, his instincts for sensing life and death were unparalleled. After so many years, she hadn't met anyone else like him.

Dou Zhao is the second.

This kind of person is terrifying, you don't know where his limits lie. Many times in situations that were supposed to be fatal, he could find a way out. That inextinguishable fighting spirit, like a torch lighting up the Immortal Forest, she almost thought he was immortal.

In Ren Qiu's silence, Jiang Wang's voice was especially clear: "It seems Dou Zhao left a deep impression on you."

Ren Qiu Li thought for a moment: "That's pretty profound."

That arrogant and unrestrained young man, wielding a cloud-dream boat and a heavenly blade, dared to face two opponents at once, treating all the heroes of the world as nothing. In the forty-nine days of relentless pursuit, he grew bolder with each battle—sometimes, she couldn't even tell who was chasing whom.

Of course she and Lü Shuānghé had the upper hand, but Dou Zhāo was even more bloody and flamboyant.

Several times she wanted to sever the connection forcibly, but Dou Zhao came charging in with his wounds time and again, prolonging this relentless pursuit.

Even as he plummeted into the depths of hell, that face, painted crimson with blood, still wore a fiendish grin.

Though he could not speak, his eyes clearly conveyed— "These two heads belong to you. Wear them until I come to collect!"

Ren Qiu'li practiced arduous cultivation, reaching nearly the limits of her physical being within the Cave Truth Realm. She did possess the level of a top-tier True Person, yet in actual combat, she was often the one Dou Zhao seized the opportunity from.

She couldn't settle down. She often thought about those eyes. Eyes that burned with an eternal, fierce flame.

She couldn't help but think again and again, Dou Zhao was like this, what about Jiang Wang

Can Lu Shuanghe really wait any longer

The fact that she is here right now is the answer to my thinking.

Lu Shuanghe's journey has been truly arduous. It's unreasonable to have to gamble with life and death at the very last step, on the peak of success. Jiang Wang is widely recognized as the world's number one genius for his current achievements! When he reaches the end of the cave, it is highly probable that he will be comparable to Xiang Fengqi.

But Lü Shuānghé had already lost to Fēng Qí once.

That time left a psychological scar, once again, only the skull is left.

Jiang Wang said, "Everyone who has fought against Dou Zhao finds it hard to forget him."

"A person truly dies when they are forgotten by the world. From this perspective, he can still exist for a long time," Ren Qiu said.

"I have a kind of unreasonable belief," Jiang Wang said. "I feel like he can come back."

Ren Qiu li looked at him: "In that case, if you were allowed to escape, would you go to the Asura Hell to find him"

Jiang Wang shook his head. "Where would I get a say After I leave, I think the Chumen people will turn A-Bi's Hell upside down."

Now that the Chu state believes Dou Zhao is dead, and the murderer is nowhere to be found in the Yinxian Forest, there hasn't been much of a stir. However, once the people of Chu find out that their first genius has fallen into the depths of hell, they will definitely stop at nothing to break through this impenetrable barrier within this desolate land.

The Divine Punishment Army will definitely not be absent at the very least.

“Are you so sure you can get out” Ren Qiu-li asked.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I still have one question that I can't figure out," Jiang Wang said with a sneer, "I wonder if Zhenjun Tianji can enlighten me — why would Wen Jingxiu cooperate with you"

Ren Qiu Li said, "You think he wouldn't dare to set a trap against you, or even participate"

"This shouldn't count as arrogance, right" Jiang Wang asked.

"It's not quite—" Ren Qiu Li didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I promised him, after taking care of you, I and Lu Shuang He would join Yue Guo, become his high officials, and protect the country for him."

>

“I’m not really a laughing person.” Jiang Wang smiled. “Does that promise hold true”

Ren Qiu stood quietly, watching him without a word.

Jiang Wang then stopped smiling and began to think seriously about the feasibility: "The Nandou Hall is already destroyed, you can't stay in Yixian Forest forever, and you need a foothold in the mortal world. Yue Ting lost Gao Zheng, and their top combat power has been weakened. They can't rely on Wen Jingxiu to solve everything with her sword. From this point of view, you and Yue Guo are indeed a match made in heaven."

“But the State of Chu will not let you go, nor will it let Yue go. Your and Lu Shuanghai's ability to serve in Yue and play a role hinges on Yue being able to escape this disaster and preserve its state before this inevitable, massive storm—Yue is already in a difficult position; to withstand it, at the very least, it needs the capacity to resist Chu to some extent. Where does Wen Jingxu get his confidence From Jing State Qin State Or did Shushan give him further promises”

>

At this time, he thought of Ge Fei: "Or... is it really related to Huang Wei"

Having been drawn into the very heart of this affair, he had begun to sense a part of the truth.

Ren Qiu Li said calmly, “Wen Jing Xiu is the ruler of a nation. His choices are certainly made with reason. You may have your speculations, but what I know might not be the whole picture.”

"No more guessing! It's really tiring to guess what you guys are thinking." Jiang Wang spread his hands: "I still prefer to ask for a direct answer."

Ren Qiu li looked at him: "Are you not being direct enough in your question now"

He strode forward.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Sword qi surged like a tide, howling and crashing. With one step forward, he stepped out of the room, retreating to the corridor. He tried to approach Ren Qiu Li, but ended up further away from her!

Space and time here truly embody a complex order.

Ren Qiu'li still sat in the wicker chair against the wall, issuing a challenge to Jiang Wang. From the doorway to that wall was only a few steps away. But this distance was stretched infinitely, becoming an unbridgeable chasm. Complex spatial rules spanned it, their patterns unclear, impossible to decipher, even after a lifetime of trying.

Jiang Wang stood in the corridor, looking up.

The waves above the translucent corridor surged.

It may have indeed been the Jiang Hai before.

But now... all of it has surged into time!

No more fish, shrimp, insects, or turtles, only the flow of time remains.

Click!

A bloody and mutilated figure fell from time, landing in the corridor. In an instant, it dyed the ground crimson. The man's exposed flesh was all scarlet, and with bloodshot eyes, he glared venomously at Jiang Wang. Threads of sinister energy, accompanied by the stench of blood, dissipated into the air.

>

Ren Qiu's voice echoed in the room: "This is Min Chui, deputy general of the Kanglong Army. He was brave but arrogant. He defied orders and personally killed the young master of Nan Chen, and was flayed alive as punishment."

“The State of Nan Chen was the predecessor of Yue. The Kanglong Army was the Imperial Guard of the State of Nan Chen, and the founder of the Yue Kingdom was once the commander of the Kanglong Army. Everyone knows who Min Chuifan killed the young master of Nan Chen for.”

But at that time, the Southern Chen royal family was deeply beloved by the people. Min's actions were too crude, which aroused public outrage. The founder of Yue killed him to appease the people and gain their support.

Min Chi-fan's resentment was understandable.

Before his death, he exclaimed: "Although a country may be misgoverned, it can still be rectified. But if the monarch's heart is not right, how can the state be upheld It is certain that disaster will befall us!"

>

Sima Heng held his pen like iron, writing down the sentence exactly as it was.

Jiang Wang had read history books and remembered this person who had passed by. He was curious: "What kind of method is this"

Though Min Tui-fan has been dead for so many years, he can still appear here. His hatred is ingrained in his bones, yet he stands on the side of Yue Ting. To call him a living being, one wouldn't see any signs of vitality. To call him a deceased spirit, everything about him seems alive.

Ren Qiu's voice echoed softly: "Today, with the reflection of Jinghu Lake mirroring the long river of time, please bear witness to the history of Yue."

Directly mirroring a period of time, killing the present with history, this method Jiang Wangwen has never heard of!

Being able to manipulate the power of time like this, Qin Qiu is undoubtedly the best in the world. Unmatched computing power.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Having once held a position of power in the Qi nation, Jiang Wang knew that the incense offerings at the Taimiao temple were significant. They could be used to influence national affairs and summon protective spirits at crucial moments.

But this kind of method is completely different from Ren Qiu's.

Even with the Mirror Lake and the support of the Emperor of Yue, Jiang Wang couldn't figure out how to accomplish this.

He looked at the flayed man before him, named "Min Chui Fan." The Samadhi True Fire ignited with his gaze, instantly incinerating him.

"The power of the mighty god is comparable to that of Min Tui-fan in history." Jiang Wang interpreted the knowledge gained from the Samadhi True Fire, without fear, only excitement: "I dare ask Heaven's Machine Real Person, can I read through the history of Yue Guo today"

Ren Qiu Li's voice seemed very distant: "History is like a book that needs to be savored. Master Jiang, you may need to read for a long time."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"How long is 'long'"

Three years or five years is not a long time, you might even say it's nothing compared to your whole life.

A burly general in armor, with a battle flag on his back and a saber in his hand, fell into the corridor.

Ren Qiu's voice explained: "During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Yue, the valiant general Long Ruchang, known for his military prowess, fought against the Wei forces and repeatedly won victories."

Jiang Wang still looked at the past, flames burning flags, armor, and then bodies.

"Perhaps we shouldn't call these people out to waste time anymore. What good are ministers, generals, brave men, and wise men They are all just mortals." Jiang Wang said calmly, "I have been fighting for so many years, traveling through countless worlds, and rarely have I met anyone worth knowing! Looking back on the history of Yue Country, there are only two people worth meeting seriously. Why not invite them to see me"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Who is it" asked Ren Qiu Li.

Jiang Wangdao: "Yue Taizong Wenzhong, yinxiang feng gaozheng!"

"You will see them," Ren Qiu said. "But before that—"

Thirty rooms lined the narrow corridor, all opening at once.

These rooms at this very moment represent different eras in the history of Yue Guo. As Jiang Wang said, one after another, famous ministers, valiant generals, brave men and wise men have walked out.

Ren Qiu Li truly displayed his divine powers from heaven.

On the battlefield, they are unparalleled means that can instantly turn the tide of battle.

Among these people, even the weakest one has reached the Divine Manifestation realm, and even Dao Zhen occasionally makes an appearance.

>

"Reading the history of Yue Country, seeing the heroes in the book, how wonderful!"

Jiang Wang turned and drew his sword, striding into the crowd.

Today, the enemy country.

Jiang Wang said honestly: "If you ask me for specific reasons, I can't say. A feeling I always feel that he will draw his knife and jump in front of me the next moment. I always feel that such an arrogant guy wouldn't have such a boring curtain call."

“He won’t draw his sword and jump in front of you.” Ren Qiu Li said with a heavy emphasis, “His sword is broken, his dao body shattered. In his last moments, he jumped into the Abi hell – no one has ever returned from there.”

The Immortal Forest is the most dangerous place in the world.

She was waiting for the opportune moment to prove herself, and during this process she said: "I have absolute confidence in Lu Shuanghe, but he sees you as the final opponent on his path, and gives you time to grow... As you grew step by step, I began to waver. Jiang Wang, you are truly an incredible person. When Yi Shengfeng died at your hands, I only thought he was unlucky and chose the wrong battlefield. But now it seems, no matter how many times you clash, he is the only one who will die."

Jiang Wang said, "After so many years, you bring up Yi Shengfeng again. It seems that we have added new hatred to old grudges. There is a reason why we must fight to the death."

"There are indeed reasons for life and death—" Ren Qiu said softly, "You're right, I'm afraid, I'm afraid of accidents. Even if there's only a one in a thousand chance, I want to erase it for Lu Shuanghe."

"A touching friendship," Jiang Wang commented, then said, "What about Dou Zhao I'm more concerned about that."

Ren Qiu-li sat on the chair formed of lines, her eyes momentarily lost in thought. Finally, she came to herself: "You seem to have extraordinary confidence in Dou Zhao. Chu Ting has already tacitly accepted his death. How can you think that he still has a chance of survival when he simultaneously challenges both me and Lu Shuanghe"

> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ren Qiu didn't argue whether she could have killed Jiang Wang, because this question didn't need arguing, it just needed verification.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

They were both very calm.

The Hell's Inferno is the most dangerous place in the Immortal Forest.

Even powerful cultivators like Lu Shuanghe and Ren Qiuli dare not venture deep into this place. Past exploration records indicate that there are at least celestial demons present!

Jiang Wang looked at Tianji Zhenren before him and shook his head. "You've said it wrong. Everything about Lu Shuanghe is not worth my trust—the only thing I believe is his devoutness to the Dao."

Ren Qiu'li instinctively wanted to retort, but in the end, there was only a bitter laugh: "I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of Lu Shuanghe."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The "qi fire" of samadhi.

This flame burned silently and invisibly, flickering in the narrow, deserted corridor, like some kind of mysterious ritual.

Jiang Wang gently rubbed the hilt of his sword: “My understanding of him... is hard to ignore.”

He smiled lightly: "As an exchange, shouldn't you answer my question now"

Read with all your heart, patrol the heavens.age...Jiang Wang's sword strikes, one by one.He firmly believed he had made the best choice, and the rest was up to fate. When making any decision, it's most important not to be indecisive.Patient wai...
