Chapter 228: Charizard, use your special move...
A month later, Gongsun Ce left the secret room.
After a month of seclusion, Gongsun Ce did not gain much, so he chose to come out for some fresh air.
After leaving the secret room, Gongsun Ce saw Jingwei, who seemed to have been waiting at the door of the secret room for some time.
"Is there any important news?"
"That's right." Jingwei nodded. "Xiang Yan led the Xiang family to seek refuge in the south. Xiang Yan's grandson has been alienated and his whereabouts are currently unknown..."
Gongsun Ce took the information from Jingwei and began to look through it.
"Let's go to the study and continue reporting."
Gongsun Ce and Jingwei came to the study, and Jingwei continued to report what had happened during this period.
"I know everything." Gongsun Ce nodded, then raised three fingers, "I have three questions. First, why did Xiang Yan choose to go south?"
"Xiang Yan had other people planted by Luowang. According to their description, Xiang Yan tried to seek refuge in Qi State, but gave up in the end. I don't know why Xiang Yan suddenly changed his mind."
"I see." Gongsun Ce touched his chin and suddenly smiled, "Ha, Xiang Yan is a wonderful man. He must have discovered that the momentum of Qin's unification of the six kingdoms cannot be stopped, so he chose to go south.
After all, once Qin unified the six kingdoms, the only pure land closest to Xiang Yan would be the undeveloped south.
Interesting. Let Luowang organize a group of Jue-level assassins to hunt down Xiang Yan, but be aware that Xiang Yan is quite powerful, so avoid direct confrontation.
Our goal is to drive Xiang Yan further south to develop the land. Therefore, we cannot let Xiang Yan go to sea, nor can we let Xiang Yan break up into small groups and disperse his people. "
"I understand." Jingwei nodded, indicating that she understood. "There is another top-level killer. His code name is Luan Shen. Should we let Luan Shen accompany us?"
"Alright, let the God of Chaos accompany us." Gongsun Ce felt that he really needed to prepare a guarantee, and then he retracted a finger, "Now the second question, how is Xiang Yan's grandson doing?"
"It is said that he once went to Yingdu to hunt down the garrison, but Song Yu later fought back and severely injured the garrison. His whereabouts are unknown at this time. It is speculated that he may have gone to a remote place to heal his wounds."
"Very good, the opponent is indeed blessed with great luck. Song Yu was not able to kill or capture him alive." Gongsun Ce was amazed, and then put away a finger. "So, the third question is, how is Wang Ben's march going?"
"With unstoppable force, I estimate that by the summer or autumn of next year, Wang Ben will be able to split the State of Wei into two and complete his plan."
"Wang Ben's marching speed is not slow."
Gongsun Ce put away his fingers and spread his hands towards Gongsun Ce Jingwei, and then Jingwei fell into Gongsun Ce's arms, "Official business is over, it's time for private matters. How are Ah Yan and Xiao Lian getting along?"
"The two girls act together every day, they are inseparable." Jingwei hesitated for a moment, "But, men can have a homosexual relationship, so it's unlikely that these two will..."
"Emm." Gongsun Ce glanced at Jingwei, and he suddenly felt a little unsure. "Let's talk about it later. Anyway, at this stage, they can only regard each other as good sisters at most."
After spending some time with Jingwei, Gongsun Ce walked out of the study and came to the vicinity of the bronze chariot. At this time, Dian Qing, the former Grand Sima, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and the Lord of Arms were all around the bronze chariot.
Gongsun Ce patted the leader of the army on the shoulder and issued an order: "Go to the vicinity of Yingdu, Chu State, find your kind, defeat him, and bring him back."
Gongsun Ce has confidence in the fighting ability of the Lord of Arms. Even if Xiang Yu is stronger, he can never be the opponent of the current Lord of Arms.
The Lord of Arms nodded, then he spread his wings and flew to the southeast.
After watching the military leader leave, Gongsun Ce left the Taiwei Mansion and went to the outside of Xianyang. The basic framework of Tongming Academy had been completed, and the dormitories for the medical branch had been built.
Nian Duan and Duan Mu Rong have been living in Tongming Academy for some time.
Gongsun Ce prepared to go over and see how the other branches were being established.
Tongming Academy was modeled after the Jixia Academy, but it also surpassed it in some ways.
Gongsun Ce planned to build Tongming Academy into a place similar to the future United University.
Therefore, the Tongming Academy is expected to cover a large area, and will be divided and constructed according to the schools of thought of the various philosophers.
Taking the medical profession as an example, Gongsun Ce planned to build teaching facilities and separate dormitories for men and women.
The reason why Tongming Academy was built outside Xianyang, on the bank of Wei River, was, on the one hand, because Tongming Academy occupied a large area and Xianyang could not accommodate it.
On the other hand, in order to better solve the water problem, it is more convenient to draw water directly from the Weishui River.
Except for the medical school's building which was completed in a hurry, the construction schedules of the Confucianists, Legalists, Military Strategists, Gongshu School, Mohists, Taoists, Yin-Yang School, Agriculturalists, School of Names and School of Diplomacy were relatively close and would be completed at about the same time.
As for the theories of eclecticists, novelists, and alchemists, which have been passed down but can hardly be called famous schools of thought, Gongsun Ce also plans to retain them, but only as elective courses.
Ideas need to be preserved, developed, and collided so that they can be used frequently and in a new way.
"Brother Gongsun."
Gongsun Ce caught Duanmu Rong who was flying towards him and rubbed her head with a smile.
The fact that Nian Duan survived has a great impact on Duanmu Rong. At the very least, Duanmu Rong is still a naive girl instead of the cold and indifferent Medical Immortal of Jinghu Lake.
"Rong'er, are you used to living here?"
"It's quiet, just too quiet."
"That's natural." Gongsun Ce took out a lotus leaf bag from his arms and handed it to Duanmu Rong, "This is a place for study, so it's better to be quiet.
If you really can't stand the environment here, come back with me to the Taiwei Mansion."
"Cough, cough, cough." Nian Duan coughed as he approached Gongsun Ce and Duanmu Rong, "Mr. Gongsun, this place is great, and Rong'er still has a lot to learn."
Gongsun Ce let go of Duanmu Rong, the young doctor who smelled of the fragrance of plants and looked at Nian Duan.
"Master Nian Duan, what do you think of this place?"
"The environment is quiet and pretty good." Nian Duan paused and then said, "But when will Tongming Academy start recruiting students?"
"It's almost done." Gongsun Ce looked at the unfinished Tongming Academy, "After the construction of Tongming Academy is completed, I can recruit some more scholars and then start enrolling students."
Confucianism can inspire people from small sages and wise men.
The Legalists could let Li Si come and work part-time.
The Mohist School has the Six-Fingered Black Knight, and the leader Qin Mo.
The military strategist can ask Wang Jian to come and teach.
The School of Diplomacy was Gai Nie's place. After Jing Ke's death, Gai Nie had some thoughts of retiring, so he would soon be recalled to Xianyang.
The Yin-Yang School has the Moon God who can serve as a teacher.
Farmers can ask calendar teachers to come and give lessons.
As for the famous experts, Gongsun Ce wanted to ask Gongsun Linglong if there was any suitable candidate.
In short, finding a teacher is not difficult, it just takes some time.
"Let's go, Rong'er." Gongsun Ce naturally took Duanmu Rong's hand and said, "Take me around."
Just as Gongsun Ce was inspecting Tongming Academy with Duanmu Rong, the Lord of Arms was flying in the sky.
Five days of flight is nothing to the Lord of Arms.
He crossed the vast sea of clouds, crossed mountains and rivers, and finally came to the sparsely populated forest outside the Chu State's Yingdu.
In the mountains and forests, ancient trees are towering and vines are entwined, creating a vibrant scene.
However, beneath this peaceful appearance, there is a disturbing atmosphere.
The Lord of Arms was traveling through the mountains and forests. His sense of smell was extremely sharp and he soon smelled a strong smell of blood.
He followed the smell of blood, searching for the scent of his own kind.
In essence, Bingzhu and Xiang Yu are somewhat similar. They are neither Deadpool nor hybrids. They are somewhere in between the two.
However, since the Chief of Arms is under the control of Gongsun Ce, his situation is relatively stable.
If Xiang Yu continues to eat, there is a certain possibility that he will turn into Deadpool.
However, this possibility requires Xiang Yu to eat a large amount of blood.
As he walked through a dense bush, he saw countless animal skeletons scattered on the ground. Some were incomplete, while others still retained their original postures.
There were obvious bite marks on these skeletons, obviously they were hunted by some powerful creature.
The little wisdom the Lord of Arms had left told him that he was getting closer and closer to his goal.
Sure enough, not long after, he saw someone like Xiang Yu with a similar aura to him.
Xiang Yu was seen squatting beside the carcass of a wild deer, tearing into the venison in big mouthfuls.
His eyes were still as golden as if they were burning, his face was full of ferocity, he was irrational and only cared about eating.
So, the leader of the army flew towards Xiang Yu without hesitation.
Xiang Yu obviously also noticed the arrival of the Lord of Arms. He raised his head suddenly and found that the Lord of Arms had a breath similar to his. At this moment, Xiang Yu suddenly had the urge to eat.
Therefore, he did not choose to escape, but rushed towards the Lord of Arms.
Relying on his extraordinary martial arts and powerful strength, the leader of the army quickly suppressed Xiang Yu.
He held Xiang Yu's waist and flew high into the sky, trying to subdue Xiang Yu by diving from high altitude.
However, Xiang Yu was no ordinary man. He struggled to break free from the control of his lord.
High in the sky, the figures of the two people intertwined and continued to climb higher, and they quickly passed through the thick clouds and reached high in the sky.
No matter how Xiang Yu struggled, his nails kept cutting the Bingzhu's back, but the Bingzhu's injuries recovered the moment they appeared due to his powerful recovery ability.
Therefore, Xiang Yu was unable to break free from the constraints of the Lord of Arms.
Then, when the two reached a high altitude, the Lord of Soldiers began to dive towards the ground.
The master of soldiers uses the skill - throw on the earth!
When it was about to approach the ground, the Lord of Soldiers let go of his hand.
He swung Xiang Yu hard and threw him fiercely to the ground.
With a loud bang, Xiang Yu smashed a deep pit.
The surrounding trees were shaking due to the earthquake. If someone checked Xiang Yu's injuries at this time, it would not be difficult to find that almost all the bones in Xiang Yu's body were broken.
Cast on the earth, the effect is outstanding.
Xiang Yu uses his skill to regenerate himself.
At this moment, Xiang Yu was like a broken work of art. Just a little bit of external force would be enough to shatter him into pieces.
At this moment, a teeth-grinding sound of bones cracking was heard from the deep pit.
Xiang Yu's injuries were recovering rapidly, and soon he climbed out of the deep pit.
Although his body was covered with scars, it was obvious that his injuries had recovered to the point where they would not affect his movements. His eyes were now flashing with an even crazier light.
"Roar!"
He let out a roar that shook the heavens, and with a flap of his wings, he rushed towards the Soldier Lord. Seeing this, the Soldier Lord slightly turned sideways to avoid Xiang Yu's attack.
At the same time, he wrapped his right arm around Xiang Yu's neck and threw him sideways dozens of meters away.
Xiang Yu fell heavily to the ground with a dull sound.
However, shockingly, Xiang Yu actually stood up again.
He shook his head and seemed a little dizzy but soon regained consciousness.
He looked up at the Lord of Arms, who had a crazy look in his eyes.
Under the influence of dragon blood, Xiang Yu no longer had the thinking of a normal person, but the basic rules of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and that survival is victory were deeply imprinted in his instincts.
Therefore, Xiang Yu would cut off his tail in order to survive in front of Song Yu.
At this time, Xiang Yu would make the same choice. He flapped his wings and pounced towards the leader of the army.
Facing the aggressive Xiang Yu, the leader of the army dodged Xiang Yu's attack by slightly turning sideways, but what the leader of the army never expected was that Xiang Yu's purpose was not to attack but to escape.
Xiang Yu passed by the Lord of Arms, and then flew straight to the northwest.
The leader of the army relied on his limited wisdom to judge that Xiang Yu was trying to walk into a trap.
From here we are flying northwest, most likely heading towards Xianyang.
In the eyes of the military leader, there was no difference between Xiang Yu and walking into a trap.
Therefore, the commander of the army decisively pursued Xiang Yu, corrected the direction of Xiang Yu's flight, and ensured that Xiang Yu could go to Xianyang.
When Xiang Yu was running at high speed, he turned his head and found that the leader of the army was still chasing him.
If Xiang Yu could speak, he would probably say: Damn it, the Lord of Arms is still chasing me!
Xiang Yu's instinct told him that he should change the direction of his flight and stun the leader of soldiers in order to avoid his pursuit.
Just as Xiang Yu was about to change the direction of flight, the Lord of Soldiers shook his wings and his speed instantly increased several times.
He stepped forward decisively and punched Xiang Yu hard in the heart.
Xiang Yu only felt a huge force coming, and his body flew forward involuntarily.
He tried to change direction, but Bingzhu's attack had made him lose control, and he was forced to fly northwest.
In this way, Xiang Yu, pursued by his military leader, rushed towards Xianyang.
In four days, Xiang Yu was about to approach Xianyang under the pursuit of his military leader.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the leader of the troops following Xiang Yu suddenly roared.
This roar successfully made Gongsun Ce, who was taking a lunch break in the Taiwei Mansion, open his eyes.
Even when taking a nap, Gongsun Ce was still in a bad mood when he woke up.
Gongsun Ce's figure soared into the sky. Looking at the Lord of Soldiers and Xiang Yu who were chasing each other, Gongsun Ce instantly understood what was happening.
So Gongsun Ce made a decisive move. He shouted softly: "The wind sweeps the ten directions and the mountains and swamps shake!"
A gust of wind swept in instantly, and Gongsun Ce pushed out a palm that turned into a giant palm print and slapped towards Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu only felt a strong airflow coming towards him, and his body seemed to be torn apart by this force.
At this time, Xiang Yu was concentrating on the leader of the troops behind him, and was hit by the palm print swung by Gongsun Ce without warning, even though he gritted his teeth and fought hard.
When his palm print collided with Gongsun Ce's, a loud bang shook the entire Xianyang city, and then Xiang Yu's figure flew backwards under the impact.
He streaked across the sky like a meteor, and finally crashed into a dense forest outside Xianyang City.
Xiang Yu lay in the dense forest, feeling waves of pain coming from his body. Then his super high recovery ability took effect. Even though he was seriously injured, Xiang Yu could still regain his ability to move after a few minutes.
Gongsun Ce flashed and caught up with Xiang Yu who was flying backwards.
Just as Xiang Yu was regenerating himself, Gongsun Ce discovered that Xiang Yu's blood was corroding the trees, flowers, and the ground as it dripped onto the ground.
In other words, Xiang Yu was already very close to Deadpool at this time. Gongsun Ce was a little surprised because the dragon blood content in the bodies of those dragon blood warriors in Yanmen Pass was pitifully low.
Xiang Yu's situation is very special. He seems to be purifying dragon blood by himself based on instinct and completing his self-evolution.
After Xiang Yu regained his ability to move, his eyes were fixed on Gongsun Ce who was flying in the air not far away.
Gongsun Ce saw the double pupils hidden beneath Xiang Yu's golden pupils.
With golden pupils and double pupils, Xiang Yu has pupils of three different colors, which Gongsun Ce finds very interesting.
However, Xiang Yu was quite dissatisfied because he was blocked by Gongsun Ce.
Xiang Yu is a bit like a honey badger with a higher IQ. If he is not convinced, he will fight. If he cannot win, he will run away, and then accumulate strength for revenge.
Simply put, Xiang Yu would not directly judge the strength of his opponent, but would fight first and then talk.
Xiang Yu's wings were trembling, as if he was accumulating his last strength to launch the most violent attack on Gongsun Ce.
He slowly stood up, flapped his wings violently, and turned into a flash of lightning and rushed towards Gongsun Ce.
He was moving extremely fast, and the air around him was whistling. He knew that he only had this one chance and he had to go all out.
He looked at Xiang Yu approaching quickly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and seemed a little surprised by Xiang Yu's flat-headed behavior.
He lightly swung out a palm, this palm had no name, it was simply the release of true energy.
A powerful airflow gushed out from Gongsun Ce's palm and turned into an invisible palm print rushing towards Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and raised his head to face the palm print.
However, his strength was far inferior to Gongsun Ce's, and the palm print easily shattered all his bones.
Xiang Yu only felt a huge force coming, and his body flew backwards as if hit by a sledgehammer.
He fell heavily back into the deep pit from which he had escaped before, and he felt that all the bones in his body were once again shattered by Gongsun Ce's powerful force.
He groaned in pain and struggled to stand up, but his body seemed to be falling apart and he couldn't move.
However, Xiang Yu began to recover from his injuries again.
A few minutes later, Xiang Yu finally regained his ability to move.
He struggled to climb out of the deep pit. His limited wisdom told him that he could not continue to fight Gongsun Ce head-on, otherwise he would suffer heavy losses again.
So he came up with the idea of escaping.
Xiang Yu took a deep breath, shook his wings violently, and turned into a ray of light that soared into the sky.
He tried to escape from this dangerous place, but Gongsun Ce had anticipated his move.
Gongsun Ce smiled slightly and waved his hand. Suddenly, the breeze turned into countless chains that came from all directions and tightly bound Xiang Yu's limbs.
Xiang Yu struggled to break free from the chains, but they were as hard as steel and could not be moved at all.
He could only watch helplessly as he was bound by the breeze and brought before Gongsun Ce.
Gongsun Ce looked at Xiang Yu in front of him with a hint of admiration in his eyes. What a good creation! It was not long since he was born, but he already possessed the perfect power of a grandmaster.
He even possesses recovery abilities that are not inferior to that of an average Deadpool.
He walked up to Xiang Yu, raised his hand and slapped him lightly.
This slap seems gentle but contains great power.
Xiang Yu only felt a huge force coming and his head turned to the side.
But Gongsun Ce discovered that Xiang Yu did not seem to feel any pain.
Combined with his previous behavior as the Flathead Brother, Gongsun Ce estimated that Xiang Yu might be a very special existence. He might be equivalent to Deadpool who possesses the power of words.
Yanling·Ghostsheng
This word spirit belongs to the descendants of the White King. The person who releases this word spirit can command his body to completely forget the pain and thus exert his ultimate strength.
From a biological point of view, this kind of words is equivalent to shutting down the self-protection mechanism of the organism and opening the genetic lock deep in the brain, allowing the person using the words to ignore the threat of death and fight to the death.
During the period of using Oni Victory, the user of the Word Spirit will experience a huge increase in strength and flexibility, and their will to kill will also be greatly enhanced, becoming as ferocious as a demon.
Therefore, this word spirit is called Guisheng.
Guisheng can also accelerate cell division and promote wound healing, but this is far from enough compared to the damage it causes to the body.
Therefore, some time after the Ghost Victory loses its effect, the person who releases it will often pass out due to the tremendous pain and will have to spend the next few months in the hospital.
However, for Deadpool, their recovery ability is already very strong, so there are no side effects of using Ghost Victory.
But Deadpool has no reason at all, they completely ignore reason and cannot use words.
Therefore, if Word Spirit·Ghost Victory is used by oneself, it would be useless and a pity to throw it away.
However, there is still room for the improvement of this Word Spirit. After the improvement, the Word Spirit·Ghost Victory can be used on others.
It can allow others to enjoy the power of Ghost Victory as well, and have them instinctively obey the orders of the Word Spirit user.
To put it bluntly, if this thing is upgraded to the point where it can be used on others, the effect will be even better than that of the Word Spirit·King's Servant, which is equivalent to releasing a bunch of suicide infantry.
Gongsun Ce's current attainments in alchemy have certain limitations on attaching spiritual words to items.
For example, the words cannot be too strong, otherwise the material will not be able to withstand it and he will not be able to exert it.
Secondly, the alchemical realm cannot compare to the realm area of the word spirit user.
Gongsun Ce looked at Xiang Yu for a moment, and then he took Xiang Yu back to the Taiwei Mansion.
After returning to the Taiwei Mansion, Gongsun Ce entered the secret room.
Gongsun Ce always held a bronze block in his hand, with a raging fire burning on it. After the flames burned, the bronze block turned into a mask.
Gongsun Ce imprinted the bronze mask on Xiang Yu's face. After a moment, Xiang Yu's eyes, which originally had golden pupils, had returned to a double pupil form.
"Release your words."
Gongsun Ce gave orders to Xiang Yu, and the next moment, Xiang Yu's double pupils returned to their previous golden appearance. In Gongsun Ce's perception, Xiang Yu's physical fitness had indeed improved a lot.
"Release your words to me."
Xiang Yu's body trembled, and then he expanded the domain under Gongsun Ce's control.
Gongsun Ce felt the domain of Word Spirit·Ghost Victory brushing past him, but it had no effect on him.
