Chapter 64: The South Wind Understands My Heart

In terms of the entire Qi state, Shímen County was a harsh land. Although it was vast in size, most of its territory was barren desert. The resources were scarce, and the climate was severe.
The eastern region is considered fertile, but deserts are actually uncommon. This terrain was formed entirely due to war.
As a founding hero, the first Duke of Cuyi was given vast fertile lands to choose from. However, he chose to guard the border for his country.
In the most arduous environment, renowned families like the Li family of Chuyuan were forged.
Even the first-ranking family in the Qi state, nominally speaking.

The ancestral shrine of the first Duke of Cuyong has always been enshrined in the foremost hall of the Guoguo Temple. The Li clan's honor and glory have flourished for generations.
But compared to the environment of Binghuang Island, Shímen County can be considered a paradise.
This island hangs alone at the northernmost edge of the nearby archipelago, desolate and bitterly cold. The north wind howls constantly, its icy bite slicing through flesh.

That's because it has gradually taken shape over the years of operation.

The maritime path of Qi State was taken in several steps. Initially, it did not directly challenge the sea power of Di Hai Lou, but instead focused on building Jueming Island to consolidate its coastal defenses and increase investment in the war against Mi Jie, taking on more responsibilities for naval defense. At the same time, it implemented a strategy of "aristocratic families going to sea," granting domestic aristocratic families the right to expand at sea, allowing them to independently develop their maritime presence.
>
Over time, this has had a lasting impact on the islands near the coast.
This was also the reason why, later on, the Fishing Sea Tower fell into decline and Qi State was able to immediately take control of the Coastal Alliance, smoothly controlling the important areas near the sea.
Unlike the 田 clan's "Ba Jiao," "Chong Jia," and Xuan clan's "Wu Dong" which were strategically located islands with convenient trade routes, the Li clan chose remote areas from the outset. They focused on exploring northward—Li Zhengyan personally determined an open-sea strategy stating "Do not compete with people; compete with heaven and earth."

To the vast expanse, to vie for man's space.
Li Fengyao had come to Binghuang Island when she was very young. Li Zhengyan had carried her over that year, thinking that as a delicate girl, she should endure the hardship of this environment and temper her character. Later, he found out that he had thought too much...
The state of Qi was growing stronger by the day, and the struggles for power near the sea became increasingly intense.
The development momentum of Binghuang Island was not good. Later, Li Fengyao simply moved here to cultivate and officially represented the Li family of Shimen to take over the sea operations.
It was her management of the Ice Phoenix Island that made her famous at an early age, becoming a big sister figure among the young nobles of Linzi. Just raising her eyes, people like Li Longchuan would shiver.
There is no spring or autumn on this island, only winter in all four seasons.
Standing tall, Li Fengyao was clad in a frost-colored armor. His long hair was simply tied back, and he wore no helmet. With his hands behind his back, he stood on the highest ice peak of the island, resembling an icy tree atop the peak. Gazing at the distant glaciers, he was colder than the frost and snow.
She is waiting for someone.
The other day, I passed by this island and went back several times to peek at the two people on it to see if they were real or not.

Thinking they were undetected, they indeed acted with caution and secrecy. Little did they know, their wicked thoughts were already reflected in the icy mirror.
In the translucent heart of frost, any speck of shadow is extremely conspicuous.

After she had attained enlightenment, the entire Binghuang Island was within her reflection's reach. All evil spirits were nowhere to hide.
The East China Sea is now the backyard of Qi State. The Zhenhai League is under the control of Qi, and on Huai Island there is Xia Shi, while on Jueming Island, Ti Fu has been moved here. Xia Shi's commander, Qi Wen, the leader of the Zhenhai League, Ye Hanyu, and Du Hou Cao Jie, are all here.
But she had no intention of asking for help.
With just two deities present, the island is already teeming with soldiers from the Li family!
She, Li Fengyao, is a military cultivator. Holding Dashi Island, she commands elite troops and sets up killing formations. Furthermore, she adopts a strategy of waiting for the enemy to attack while remaining calm and composed. If this is the level of her capability, requiring aid, then she truly lacks competence and shames the reputation of the Li family of Shimen.
How come the national system prospers
Military monks are sweeping across temples!
What exactly is a military cultivator, she had to let these lowlives know!
The wait was a little longer than expected. The two assassins who should have arrived by now were nowhere to be seen, but she was patient. War is sometimes hunting; most of the time it's about waiting and chasing. The real confrontation often ends in a very short period of time.
Those who are eager for quick results often suffer setbacks.

After the collapse of the ancient Heavenly Road, she naturally had thoughts about the situation near the sea. She knew that conflict with the Jing Kingdom was probably unavoidable.
As the representative of the Shimen Li clan at sea, she was bound to be caught in this whirlpool.
However, there are two sides to every story. This is both a trouble and an opportunity. If Jing Guo doesn't come, the Myriad Realms will be sealed again, and there really won't be many opportunities for achievements at sea.

On the grand scale of open sea strategy, we must prioritize consolidating our position. Within the smaller confines of the coastal area, what is most important right now is to solidify Bing Huang Island's foundations and strengthen its standing. We should not rashly venture into the inner seas to bolster someone else's prestige.
Bing Huang Island is located at the northernmost point, bordering the nearby archipelago. As long as you manage this place well, any Jing Guo people who want to come here will have to look to her for permission.
At the end of the day, Qi had been operating at sea for so long that even when facing direct competition from the world's leading empire, it was bound to have an advantage.
Competing against Diaohailou and competing against Jingguo are different strategies.
When competing with Diaohailou, the State of Qi could gradually gain an advantage, step by step transforming its superiority into dominance. It could even allow Diaohailou to integrate the nearby islands. This was determined by the disparity in their strength. The ruler of Qi repeatedly allowed this, always prepared to swallow Diaohailou whole. All the efforts Diaohailou made in integrating the islands ultimately served as a wedding dress for the State of Qi.
As for Jing Guo, the situation is different. Although they currently hold the advantage, if they cannot quickly crush Jing Guo's ambitions and establish a prolonged stalemate, the outcome will be uncertain. After all, Jing Guo has a deep foundation, and once they gain a foothold in the coastal areas, their power will undoubtedly be inexhaustible.
Those who truly prevail cannot be fixated solely on the immediate and local. True victory must come from a broader perspective.
Li Fengyao waited and pondered silently.
At a certain moment, she suddenly turned her head and looked south.
That's really strange.
On the island of Bing Huang, a rare south wind blew.
A gentle breeze swept past her hair, playfully twirling it before reluctantly drifting away.
On the northern island, where one gets used to the biting wind, this is truly a well-behaved wind.
Whirlwind The wind howled.
Because the flying speed was too fast, the wind head-on was like a knife.
Tian Anping was unlike other cultivators who would use their extraordinary powers to dispel its sharpness. He felt it with his own body.

Pain is a way of knowing the world, and it is clearer than other sensations.
Of course, he hadn't felt anything for a long time.
Clouds surged and churned, sunlight dappled the scene.

Suddenly, his figure froze, coming to a halt so abruptly it was jarring. The long tail of energy he'd left behind from his rapid flight still shrieked forward, piercing through clouds for thousands of meters without stopping. But he himself became an unyielding reef in the wind, standing silently amidst this sea of clouds.
The sea of clouds itself was without waves, the sky clear and the sea like glass with no wind or rain. But within his Taoist body, a sudden burst of emerald light erupted!
A shimmering, verdant light, as fine as a needle, crept through the tiniest cracks. It also slithered into pores like a serpent winding through a cave.
Curse, Biyou Needle!
King Qin Guang, Yin Guan!
He sought revenge immediately, taking Tian Huanwen's Immortal Eyes and digesting the spoils of the Wanxian Palace. Then, using Tian Huanwen's eye water and marrow, he launched a counterattack against Tian Anping!
Fearing he might be a little slow, Tian Anping reacted and got ready.
Throughout the entire conflict over the Wanxian Palace ruins, Yin Guan did not engage in direct combat but repeatedly evaded it. By leveraging his knowledge of Wanxian Palace, he set up trap after trap... Even so, he was still injured by Tian Anping.
But in the process of his frenzied escape, he had already left behind a curse. Only when he reached a safe distance, miles away at this very moment, did he set up an altar and perform rituals to detonate it.
It's not that Yama doesn't kill, but it's simply not yet the third watch of the night!
From the void, a tiny figure clad in official robes appeared, wielding an iron pen in one hand and holding a scroll with the other. He pointed at Tian Anping and said in a deep, hollow voice: “Your time has come!”
Cursed immortal, Hell's judge!
That wisp of emerald light, in an instant, surged a thousandfold.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Tian Anping was caught off guard in mid-air, barely having time to react. A needle-like azure "Bi You" struck him relentlessly, countless thin needles piercing his body like a swarm of bees, turning him into a shimmering blue hedgehog!
He was completely unrecognizable, his body without a single opening.
Compared to the Qin Guangwang in Wanxian Palace who only cared about fleeing, Yin Guan at this moment truly demonstrated his killing power. His killing power had increased too much!
But Tian Anping just stood there, utterly empty, showing no sign of resistance. There wasn't even a flicker of life in him.
He was like a dead tree, shriveled and devoid of everything.
Streams of Azure Threads swam around his body like a school of fish, weaving in and out, constantly splitting and merging until finally they formed a massive cloud woven from an azure glow!
The power of the curse had piled up to a point where even the ancestor of sorcery couldn't control it.
Wherever it passes, death follows. Should one fall into this sea, there will be no life for a thousand miles.
But Tian Anping, at this moment, raised his eyelids and opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, the boundless azure needles parted for him, becoming two gaping voids within the emerald clouds.
He looked out in this way, enveloped by his magical power. Following the connection of that power, he ascended along its flow, arriving instantly. It was as if spanning thousands upon thousands of miles, he saw through the void, a towering altar. And upon that altar, stood Qin Guang Wang, with long hair cascading down to his heels.
Compared to Qin Guang Wang's nearly manic, murderous green eyes, Tian Anping's were quite ordinary. Neither sharp nor fierce.
His eyes held interest. In Qin Guangwang, he saw a path unlike anyone else's, a glimpse into the truth of the world that was perhaps unique to Yin Guan's experience. He was eager to see more possibilities within this person.
>
As for Yin Guan, he felt his Bi You Needle had pierced into the void!
Despite possessing the power of an eternal curse, a force so immense, it vanished after piercing this mortal shell. Logically, with every one of the myriad needles wielded by Biyou, everything should have perished.
But within Tian Anping's body, it seemed as if nothing existed. This flesh and blood vessel was merely a withered and hollow shell.

How can a living person today be a false shell
Tian Anping naturally has his "truth". He slowly raised his hand. In the process of him raising his hand, the densely packed emerald needles piercing his hand were already disappearing in large chunks, like sewage flowing on tiles, wiping it off with a cloth reveals large patches of blankness.
This raised hand and these open eyes have become the "pure land" on this mortal body, untouched by curse power.
His hand rose to the level of the sea, his overly pale fingers spread wide—
Above the clouds, countless lines flew out. These lines came from nowhere and for no reason, weaving through the sky like a tapestry. In an instant, they formed a square city in the heavens.
It is truly a city, and not merely a model.
So enormous, as if it could hold the entire sea of clouds.
The city has fallen.
This city, in the process of falling, seemed to have birthed a terrifying suction.
Those densely packed Bīyóu needles on Tiānpíng's body, they rose up like a flock of birds taking flight, howling and swarming as they entered the city.
Even if one were to delve deep into Tian'anping's very being, reaching his bones and marrow, there would still be strands of Bi Mang retreating outward, all flowing towards this city.
Only Yin Guan could feel that it wasn't the city itself that had much influence over the Biyou Needles, but rather these needles, following the curse's connection, went to curse the true Tian Anping!

Is this city Tian Anping
Above the city gates of Sīfāng City, a plaque hung suspended, bearing a clear and distinct “Ji” character formed from the condensation of Daoist rhyme.
"Here lies the city."
This is Tian Anping's inner court!
The external Sky-Piercing Needle had been fully withdrawn. Standing in the clouds, Tian Anping's five senses were clear once again. He was still dressed in thin clothes, his hand bearing a broken chain, but his hair remained unharmed. He stared at Yin Guan from afar, without moving his gaze.

And within his body, traces of emerald light still flew out, remnants of the curse force, heading towards Jici City —
At the ruins of Wanxian Palace, he had not yet sensed Yin Guan's lingering curse power. Or perhaps even if he had sensed it, he wouldn't have been able to eradicate it completely. However, at this time, he had displayed an understanding of curse power, allowing it to be nowhere to hide within his body!
After the emerald light flew away, Tian Anping had a moment of nothingness. At this moment, one could see that inside his hollow Dao body, faintly appeared the universe void, stars flowing like clouds.
His inner and outer palaces were like a city.
His outer court is within, it is the center of the universe.
At the end of the opening passage of Guanyin Temple's "Ten Thousand Immortals Paying Homage," it reads:

"Man is the universe, man is the cosmos, man is the immortal among immortals!"
Yúan Guān and Tián npíng each obtained a portion of the inheritance and had different understandings, not simply following the old path. They started from different directions, one first cultivating the Immortal Universe, the other first refining the Human Body as a Cosmos.

This brings us to a confrontation.
Yín Guān's Bì Yóu Zhēn pierced Tián n Píng's Dao body, but it was flying in the vast universe, naturally unable to find his true location.
At this moment, "immediate city" is like a cage, capturing the azure-winged birds as they fly into it.
When one is near the tableware, one will immediately eat. This is what is meant by “immediacy”! I can’t wait!
Tian Anping drew his thumb across his index finger, a splatter of blood appearing instantly. He then pointed with his bloody finger, drawing a human shape in the void. With a press of his finger, the blood-drawn figure transformed into a paper cutout resembling a human, its outline traced in blood and its interior an empty mirror.
His fingers were still bleeding, and on the torso of this paper-human form, he wrote... "Yin Guan"!
This piece of paper caught fire.
Ashes swept by the power of black, plunged into the void.
He had probably already studied the power of sorcery, and in his confrontation with Yin Guan, he learned something.
...it was at this very moment, that he cursed Yin Guan in return!

His finger, renowned for its ability to capture the essence of a person through writing, bent backward in a gruesome twist at this moment, the protruding bone starkly visible!
After all, Taoism is Yin Guan's ultimate path.
Tian Anping was undoubtedly retaliated against!
Even his pupils shattered at this moment, like pieces of glazed glass, the cracks all filled with blood.
But he simply blinked. When he opened his eyes again, they were back to normal. Just like that, without any emotion, he straightened his broken finger.

Yin Guan’s image as he was watched in the void had vanished, and so had the power of the incantation. The leader of Hell's Gate, seeing that his efforts were futile, left rather decisively.
Tian Anping opened his mouth and swallowed, swallowing his own city.
He didn't chase after Yin Guan, he couldn't catch him anyway, and there was no need to. He turned around instead and flew towards the Tiān Yá Stage.
