Chapter 905: Crossing the River卒

eed is a letter of appointment!"The card [Jia Xu ()] has been added to your deck!The conditions aren't met yet, as usual, I can't see the card face. But it won't be long before I get used to it.Jia Xu...It took Lu Cheng a full six months to clear the riverbank.

Because we needed to transport the people across the Yangtze River, but their mobility was very low.

Like a pawn in chess about to cross the river.

Furthermore, the situation is very similar: by consuming each other's "pieces," one advances. And due to various factors, once forward progress is made, it is very difficult to retreat.

Standing on the riverbank, gazing at the surging Yangtze River.

The noodles are even slightly discolored.

The dream realm is undoubtedly unfortunate.

The Yangtze River Basin produces high-quality water spirits stone.

During the Thousand-Year War period, Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, ordered large-scale excavations of riverbeds to establish a shipping route for transporting spiritual stones northwards. This ensured the supply chain in the north was maintained.

Advisors urged the king to start protecting the ecosystem and nurturing the spirit for future use.

Subsequently, the Eight Princes' Rebellion in the Jin Dynasty led to a shortage of water spirit stones in the Yangtze River basin. Due to the prolonged war, the mines were exhausted, leaving only water spirit sand.

Later, the situation went from bad to worse. Wang Jiao died and even polluted the Yangtze River basin, causing the spirit sand operation to come to a standstill.

The Jin Emperor wanted to restore order, but Jiangsu once again suffered a major disaster. Waves of refugees fell ill and died, with corpses piling up, threatening the work underway.

It wasn't until Su Wen cleared the channels of communication after eight years that people were able to connect with each other again.

Lu Cheng sighed with longing as he looked at the vast expanse of the river.

The dream was a scheme concocted by Jia Xu using the celestial mandate, but it also largely reflected the state of the expansion pack.

The Huaxia expansion pack has limitless potential, but years of war and the disordered celestial order have caused it significant damage.

It's even worse in mainland China.

The Solar War shattered two Gigantic Expansions. The affluent Western Continent of Fu Shu was directly split in half, and to this day, sporadic warfare continues.

The eastern continent has already become history, now there is only the boundless ocean.

The powerful water spirit spell submerged the Holy Nation's army, but the raging power of the water spirit also disrupted the ecosystem, leaving it a wasteland!

Most of the central regions of the continent are now controlled by the Death King and the Thunder King.

Lu Cheng knew that the Holy Lord fought for profit, while the Soul King might not.

He is a true psychopath.

Once defeated, he might try to destroy all of Central Asia.

A lose-lose situation.

This kind of thing must not happen.

"Master Jian, what are you thinking about" Yao Ji's voice rang out.

"No," Lu Cheng denied. "Can you sense the nine heads"

"No."

She wasn't an investigator, and finding a nine-headed serpent in the Yangtze River basin was simply too difficult.

The disciples of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine had already placed the nine cauldrons on the riverbank, and using the mining pits dug out from the excavated spiritual sand, they buried them deeply.

in a nine-palce formation.

The

Suwen

is not a Trap Array school, and Lu Cheng cannot easily synthesize high-level Array Traps by arranging cards on the table.

But with great power comes great responsibility. Lu Cheng took out the Nine Cauldrons Tripod as a sacrificial offering, and even a basic Nine Cauldron Nine Palace formation was enough to suppress the demon snake.

With the help of the Nine Cauldrons, killing it wouldn't be difficult, but the key is to lure it here.

This thing is extremely cunning, and its tracks are hard to find.

Actually, the best way is to lure them out with 【Peach Blossom Village Peasants】 as bait.

But Lu Cheng wouldn't do that.

Heaven and Earth are unfeeling, and the Heavenly Artifact is devoid of both good and evil. Although Master might not mind if Lu Cheng does some bad things.

But when Liu Bei led the people across the Yangtze River that year, even in a crisis, he did not make civilians shields against Cao's army. If he had done so, he would have definitely been recorded in history books.

Finally, Lu Cheng decided to stay in the middle as bait.

Does the pork taste good

not fragrant

He's not Tang Sanzang, either.

But the sword scent!

Lu Cheng expended his energy, no longer concealing the aura of Yaocao.

As a large amount of energy flowed from the cards, the air along the riverbank was filled with the scents of exotic flowers and plants, dispersing much of the stench of decay.

Hydra's three heads were severed and it fled.

... relying on the power of the Southern Xiongnu to recuperate.

During the Southern Flight of the Civil Service, the Wang family turned a blind eye. It was able to slip into the Yangtze River.

It was an extraterrestrial demonic serpent. In order to escape the pursuit of the Celestial Dao of China, it changed its name to the Nine-Headed King and has been hiding deep in the riverbed.

Every day, the Xiongnu would come and it would bestow snake venom upon them to create corpses infested with southern pestilence. Then, the Xiongnu and the royal family would feed this potent energy to their skilled cultivators for healing purposes.

But it's just a drop in the bucket.

The other day, his old master, the proxy of Hades, suddenly appeared.

The Lich King said that its hiding place had been exposed, and the Jin army was gathering, preparing to attack it.

How could Jiumeishou Da Wang know that the Death Spirit King had sold it and used it as bait to lure Lu Cheng northward

It was firmly convinced of this, but clearly, the wounded it couldn't cope, so it eagerly worked to improve its strength.

So, acting on its own accord, it leapt out of the Yangtze River, wanting to devour the Su Wen cultivators who were currently by the riverbank. In its eyes, these must have been the vanguard of the Jin Dynasty.

Unfortunately, that raid wasn't successful. There was a very powerful fox demon inside, and it wouldn't be easy to defeat her on land.

It can only find opportunities in the river.

Today, the Nine-Faced Great King smelled the aura of heaven and earth treasures.

It must be something guarded by that fox demon.

If I swallow this spirit herb, my three heads will be restored to their former glory. Then, I'll devour the Wang family and become the overlord of Jiangnan. Just like the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms, I'll create my own demon kingdom!

The more I think about it, the more tempting it becomes.

Gradually, the nine-headed serpent emerged from the water.

The aura of heaven and earth treasures was gradually approaching, and the Nine-Headed Demon King was somewhat hesitant.

Unlike ordinary monsters, it has a certain degree of intelligence.

It could realize this might be a trap for it. It sprayed a cloud of poison, obscuring its massive form in the mist and circled around nearby.

Li Cheng stayed in the formation, feeling a little restless.

This monster, it seems to have been hooked, but it just won't come into the trap.

It's true that Lü Cheng couldn't keep his cool.

The Jiuding Palace formation has a Purple Card leading each side, along with 10 units of Su Wen disciples. The spiritual stone consumption is enormous.

If we keep going like this, I'll be the first one to collapse.

After crossing the river, we still have to find a way to move forward. We must defeat the Jiangbei demon clan attacking our Longjiang defenses, occupy Luoyang and Chang'an, and settle the displaced people.

After entering Linghu Mountain, it can be considered a successful relocation.

But this cunning prey is actually consuming the hunter's strength

However, this poison mist obviously consumes a lot of energy.

Lu Cheng looked at the cards in his hand.

The patient hunter and the cunning prey

It's okay, we can just wait it out.o the tunnel.shouted:"General Huo, haven't you always said, why did the gods have reinforcements back then, but we didn't We did have them, but it's something we can't speak of!""Now the time has come...
