nd justice, to discuss and decide on major and minor affairs of the Zhenhai Alliance."The Grand Master is also the convener and arbiter of the council. As the True Monarch is busy with celestial affai...The meeting of the Yellow River, which ended in July of the Daoli year three thousand nine hundred and nineteen, still had ripples in August.
The most important reason, of course, is that the champion of this year's Huanghe Conference's inner palace competition was suspected of having dabbled in magic.
This matter caused a stir for a time, involving Jing, Qi, Mu, and Chu, as well as Yujing Mountain and Xuankong Temple.
With the arrival of the celestial being Jing Guo, Zhao Xuanyang, the Heaven's Pride, personally captured Jiang Wang in Zhongshan. Afterward, Ji Zhaonan, from Qi, returned from the myriad demons' gate and launched a sudden attack. Then, Chun Yu Gui suddenly appeared and clashed with Ji Zhaonan...Qi's fierce reaction pushed the matter to its climax, attracting attention from all over the world.
Chun Yu Gui and Ji Zhao Nan fought a fierce battle in the Kingdom of Zhongshan. The fighting was so intense that it almost destroyed half the city before angry cultivators from the Kingdom of Zhongshan were able to mobilize their army to stop them.
This battle's outcome is a matter of perspective, in the end both sides retreated.
After this battle, both Qi and Jing paid a considerable amount of resources to Zhongshan.
In contrast, the battle between General Pei Xinghe of Jing Guo's Disaster Suppression Army and General Shi Mingcheng of Qi Guo's Winter Silence Army atop the Nine Towns of the Long River is not as well-known.
There are no bystanders in battle. No one knows when it begins or ends.
The rumors that circulated were mostly vague. It was said that during the fiercest fighting, the river dried up for three breaths, but whether it is true or not remains unknown.
Furthermore, the fact that Ku Jue, a contemporary master from Hanging Sky Temple, pursued Zhao Xuanyong for thousands of miles to rescue Jiang Wang, is another hotly debated topic. Especially since he continued his pursuit for three days without success and even defied the temple's order to return, choosing to leave the mountain gate to continue his chase... This inevitably leads people to re-evaluate his relationship with Jiang Wang.
All kinds of rumors, about reincarnation and illegitimate children, are spreading like wildfire...
Speaking of it, throughout July and August, the entire world, with countless feudal lords and kingdoms, seemed to have their eyes focused on this prodigious talent named Jiang Wang.
It is truly a sunny day, with the world watching.
No matter what the final outcome is, he can be proud of himself.
With the intense confrontation in Qi State, Jiang Wang's alleged connection with demons has evolved into a political event in mainstream public opinion rather than an isolated matter of demon slaying. Most people hold a reserved attitude towards whether he actually practiced sorcery.
Compared to when Jing Guo Mirror World Stage first announced its news, this is a drastic shift in public opinion. This undoubtedly deals a heavy blow to the credibility of Mirror World Stage.
The Mirror World Platform surprisingly remained calm, and it was unknown why. This led to countless speculations.
Of course, nobody would doubt the might of Jing Guo.
After all, forcing a contemporary master to leave his mountain gate in order to continue his pursuit is enough to demonstrate the power of Jing Guo.
If it were an ordinary faction, they would just pursue the bitter truth and that's it. The Sky-Suspended Temple wouldn't put so much effort into forcibly restraining someone to the point of making a real person leave.
Thus, in the days that followed, people's after-dinner conversations revolved around where they had tasted bitterness and how they had meticulously measured their past step by step.
But day by day passed, and there was no harvest in sight. People's attention gradually drifted away.
Instead of focusing on the monotonous and uninteresting journey of a withered old monk with yellow complexion, it's better to read Qi Guo's increasingly severe diplomatic letters.
Qi State sternly demanded the return of their celestial prodigy, but Jing State stated they would still wait for the public trial on Yu Jing Mountain.
>
The Chu state continues to pay attention and hopes that the Jing state will complete the public trial as soon as possible. The Jing state said that because of the pursuit of Ku Jue, they are currently unable to contact Zhao Xuan Yang and cannot escort Jiang Wang to Yu Jing Shan. Please ask the friends from the Chu state to find a way to persuade Ku Jue to leave first.
Zhao Xuan yang and Jiang Wang, seemed to have vanished from the mortal world.
It's not that seeking answers is foolish, it's just a clumsy way of going about things. After all, there are simply too many possibilities when it comes to disappearing from this world.
From the ancient times to the present, the secrets of the world are vast like a starry sea. How many secrets are hidden in this great world, how many legends have been lost... no one can know.
Unless one had a deep understanding of Zhao Xuanyang, it would be difficult to immediately associate him with such a hidden abode as the Ancient Demon's Cave. After all, after the end of the ancient times, two more eras, the medieval and modern, had passed before reaching the present day when the Daoist lineage was revived.
Even though Zhao Xuan yang himself was only at the Shen Lin realm, he hailed from Jing Guo. As a native of Jing Guo, he had witnessed countless techniques used by true men and even true monarchs. Having one or two treasures that could evade the detection of true men was not unusual.

It's impossible to guess, you can only check it piece by piece.
The Taoist calendar, August nineteenth, 3919.

It has been four days since Ku Jie announced his departure from Xuanku Temple.
A major battle erupted almost without warning!
The warring parties, however, were not the increasingly hostile states of Jing and Qi, despite the growing friction between them.

but rather the countries of Mu and Sheng!

Mu Guo, with the prime minister Mu Wuyaya of Sheng Guo as his deputy, claimed that he saw Guo Wu Li (the state without ceremony) by the Guan He Tai platform. Using this pretext, Mu Wuyaya appointed Wan Yan Xiong Lue as commander and raised all cavalry forces from Wu Tu Lu, marching their army straight towards Li Yuan, a border city of Sheng Guo!
The meaning of the two characters "離原", whether it means to leave the grassland or to be separated from it, is a matter of personal interpretation.
But undoubtedly, the city of Liyuan is the first imposing fortress one encounters when traveling south through the boundless grasslands.
Since its completion, countless children of the prairie have shed their blood before this city.
In the eyes of the people of a prosperous nation, this time will be no exception.
>
"Uturu" means brave and fearless in the language of the pastoral people.
However, compared to renowned cavalry such as the Azure Diagram Divine Cavalry and Iron Pagoda, Uturu remains an obscure and unknown force.
Wuturu's commander, Wanyan Xiongli, was quite a renowned warrior on the grasslands, but compared to famous generals like Jin Dundu, he paled in comparison.
Its reputation spread beyond the grasslands, and few people truly knew about it.
>
A renowned general of a prosperous nation, Jiang Ruyong, once said that governing a country requires only three types of armies: the Cangtu Divine Cavalry, the Tie Futu (Iron Pagoda), and the Wangzhang Cavalry!
Impliedly, he didn't take the armies of other countries in Mu Guo seriously at all, even if they were one of the Six Great Powers and the undisputed overlord of the northern region.
>
The strength and confidence of a great nation are evident here.
Jiang Li Meng, who represented Shengguo in the Huang He Conference, was the daughter of Jiang Ru Yong. She had a proud personality, much like her father.
And the commander of the Shen Ce Army of Jing Guo, Xian Nan Kui, once said that there was only one army in Mu Guo, called the Cang Tu Divine Cavalry!
The mighty nation has often clashed with the shepherd nation, never backing down.
Against this backdrop, Sheng Guo stationed the renowned general Qi Hong, known for his sharp and formidable military prowess, in Liyuan City. He stood firm against the imposing Wanyan Xonglie who was advancing northwards, thus igniting a national war.
The war between the Mu country and the Sheng country had happened many times, and both sides were very familiar with each other.
After all, Mu Guo further north is already the borderland wasteland. To the west lies Jing Guo, an extremely warlike military court empire. If one wants to expand their influence, they can only focus on Zhongyu and Dongyu.
As the leading state among Daoist states, Shengguo receives a large amount of resources from the Daoist sect every year. The main purpose is to suppress the Mu Kingdom.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
The two of them were simply a perfect match, something had to happen between them.
Therefore, war was truly inevitable for these two countries.
For the people of these two countries, fighting is nothing unusual.
But this world is not limited to a single region.
The influence of the Six Hegemon Nations has long spread throughout the world, and every move they make stirs people's hearts.
The sudden declaration of war by the Muiguo nation against Shengguo directly impacted the Mirror Stage—
>
Jiang Wang needs to go through the magic awakening, and it can't be delayed any longer.
The Jing Guo must immediately resolve the dispute with Qi Guo!
The reason Sheng Guo was able to fight with Mu Guo on equal terms is simple: the all-around support from Jing Guo. Public opinion, deterrence, weaponry, supplies... even military force when necessary.
The struggle of shepherds is actually the struggle of landscapes.
Besides, the defenses of Xīwān State to the west and the distractions posed by the desolate northern border can only be considered peripheral factors.
Why are the Six Great Powers called powerful
Even if the Hegemon Nation only deployed one hand, it could easily crush any nation outside the top six.
>
A mighty nation remains mighty, and there are few exceptions to this rule.
If the dispatch of troops to Liyuan City by the kingdom was pre-planned, then their extremely harsh statement on the matter of Tianjiao's demonic possession in Qi is undoubtedly a gesture of goodwill at the national level.
>
Jing Guo had to consider a problem - Mu Guo had early offered wood peach to Mo Tao, would Qi Guo retaliate with Qiong Yao
From Ji Zhaonan to Shi Mingcheng, Qi's attitude is the strongest it can be. Taking advantage of the great war against Mu, would Qi dare to invade our border
And once Qi State initiates war, will the state of Mu simply be content with having Wu Tu Lu come and skirmish
This is a vortex that is likely to deepen continuously!
Therefore, no matter how Jiang Wang's involvement with demonic affairs is ultimately handled, a result must be reached immediately.
“Zhao Xuan Yang was pursued relentlessly. He could not escape the consequences of his actions. To prevent the demon-cultivators from being taken, he chose to act justly and slay them. While Zhao Xuan Yang's devotion to righteousness is worthy of sympathy, and his heart is truly just, his actions are flawed. Therefore, he shall be punished: banished from the Ten Thousand Demons Gate and forced to atone through a bloody battle. This serves as an explanation to the State of Qi…”
Above the high sky, in the midst of strong winds, a voice transmitted: "What do you think of this statement"
The speaker was a tall, thin man clad in a loose Taoist robe with flowing sleeves. He looked to be middle-aged, with eyes like clear mirrors and a face radiating brilliance.
The man flying beside him was a dark-skinned, muscular strongman with a rough voice: "It's understandable, but it's a pity for Xuan Yang. Who would go to Jingtian Mansion..."

This man is the renowned and feared master of the Jing Guo, Chou Tie.
In the early years, he fought on numerous battlefields, always leading the charge. Victory or defeat, he was always at the forefront, reaching a divine level of skill in combat.
Later, he removed his armor and returned to the countryside. Living alone in a house and on a piece of land, he secluded himself for seventy years, washing away all traces of his murderous nature and becoming a true sage of his time.
>
He who spoke with him was naturally Jingguo Jingsetai's leader, Fu Dongxu.
Fu Dongxu laughed and said, "Of course I'll make Zhao Xuanyang satisfied, then let him go tell everyone himself!"
Qiu Tie also laughed: "Then you'd better be prepared to bleed, that kid has a big appetite."
"There's public funds!" Fu Dongxu said.
"Now that Ku Jue is so intractable, forcing Zhao Xuanyang to kill Jiang Wang just to escape, how do you intend to deal with him" He Tie asked.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"You think, why did I invite you here"
"Then let Zhao Xuanyang expose his traces first. At least we'll know who to blame, so this hat can be placed on the right head."
"That's it!"
But what Fu Dongxu and Qiu Tie hadn't expected was...
>
Not only did they fail to find Zhao Xuanyang, but they couldn't even contact him.
The information Zhao Xuanyang left in the Qianyantian Mirror was never read again!
Even to escape hardship, even if one dared not reveal the slightest trace, this should not be done. Evading pursuit is not simply a matter of digging a hole and burying oneself. Zhao Xuan Yang could not possibly hide away until the end of time; he also needed to grasp information from the outside world in order to decide on his next move. And reading the information within the Qian Tian Mirror was both safe and efficient.
As one of the national treasures of Jingguo, the core treasure of Mirror Stage, Qiantian Mirror has been running for a long time without any flaws. With Zhao Xuan Yang's ability, no matter where he hides, he can fully spend two or three breaths reading the information and then continue to hide.
Unless... he no longer needs it, or is unable to.
...and the pursuit of bitterness continued, Zhao Xuan Yang hadn't returned to Jing Guo, or gone towards Yu Jing Mountain, so he was certainly needed...
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Only then did the people of Jing realize the seriousness of the problem.
Not only did the Qi State's genius, Jiang Wang, vanish without a trace, but also Zhao Xuanyang, the Divine Realm prodigy from Jing Country, disappeared!
Who is Zhao Xuanyang
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Before Taiyu Zhenren appeared at Guanhetai, the two proud sons of Jingguo were already its banners.
Moreover, he wasn't a prodigy with unrealized potential. He was already at the level of a god, a top-tier combatant for the nation. With over five hundred years of lifespan, he had more possibilities and greater value.
He certainly wasn't without a basis.
Even Fu Dongxu wouldn't go to Jitian Mansion to communicate.
If Zhao Xuanyang had an accident, the losses would be too great and the trouble even bigger!
And then an edict was issued, and within the scope of the edict, all regions fell silent.
At this time, Jing Guo demonstrated its unparalleled influence in the mortal world. It directly sealed off a region spanning nearly ten thousand miles, centered on Zhao Xuanyang's last known location.
A luxurious lineup led by three renowned experts, Fu Dongxu, Qiu Tie, and Ji Yan Yue, was dispatched to thoroughly search this area. They were determined to turn the earth upside down and find the gifted Zhao Xuan Yang.
Among them, Fu Dongxu and Chou Tiezi needless to say, Ji Yan Yue is from the Jing Guo royal family. In terms of seniority, she is actually the current Emperor Jing's younger sister-in-law. Of course, in reality, they are not that closely related by blood. However, her influence is no less than the first two.

To the south, Tianma lies facing the long river. To the west is Heguo, and to the north is Renxin Hall. Looking eastward from south to north, we see Wuguo, Weiguo, and Qinkushu Academy.
Among these forces, Renxin Guan and Qinkù Academy are top-tier sect powers. Although the country is small, it was able to act as the executor of the agreement between Tianma Yuan and Jing from the original work, even adding its own name to the agreement, which naturally indicates extraordinary strength.
This area, heavily sealed off by the powerful state of Jing Guo, is a vast region surrounded by Tianma Yuan, Wei Guo, Qin Ku Shu Yuan, and Ren Xin Guan.
Of course, the sealed border is drawn along the territorial boundaries of Qilin Academy and Renxin Hall, giving the top sects the necessary respect. As for other large and small forces within this area, they are not treated so well...
Jing Guo was ordered to thoroughly search every corner, seeking Zhao Xuan Yang.
Located in a certain Taoist temple within Jingtian Prefecture.
Six meditation cushions are made of stone carvings, and six Taoist priests are made of clay sculptures.
Suddenly a gust of wind swept through, and one of the clay statues spoke: "This time, I shall go."
“I find this improper,” said a statue with an ancient visage instantly.
The clay sculpture, which spoke first, didn't utter a word. It only twisted its neck eerily, staring straight at him.
The clay neck twisted, almost as if it were broken, making one worry that it would fall off.
A clay sculpture, unexpectedly, conveys the feeling of "Laozi is in a bad mood."
