Chapter 126: Changes of Blood Moon Gu
Zheng Yi first placed a blood moon Gu into the Black Jade King Cauldron.
Who knows if these twelve Blood Moon Gu will rush over and fight for him again when he is performing the blood sacrifice?
There are only twelve left out of more than a hundred, and he would be very sad if he lost one more.
"Squeak..."
As if it knew Zheng Yi's intention, the Blood Moon Gu kept crawling around in the Black Jade King Cauldron, sniffing something.
Zheng Yi's mind moved, and he stretched out his right index finger. The spiritual energy in his body surged, and immediately tore a small crack on his index finger.
A drop of blood essence slowly condensed along the finger, and dripped directly into the Black Jade King Cauldron with a "tick-tock" sound.
"Squeak~!"
While the essence and blood were still in the air, the Blood Moon Gu let out an ear-piercing sharp cry, spread its three pairs of wings, and flew into the air, meeting the drop of essence and blood and swallowing it in one gulp!
“Squeak, squeak, squeak~!!!”
The Blood Moon Gu hissed, and its three pairs of wings fluttered wildly, as if it was crazy and looked very excited.
At this time, Zheng Yi clasped his hands together and, according to the instructions of the secret method of blood sacrifice, transformed the drop of blood swallowed by the Blood Moon Gu into a special blood sacrifice rune.
Streams of blood mist gushed out from the Blood Moon Gu, gradually condensing into special cloud-like runes, and began to slowly dissipate before merging into the Blood Moon Gu's body.
After an unknown amount of time, the blood mist finally completely penetrated into the body of the Blood Moon Gu.
The originally blood-red body of the Blood Moon Gu also gradually changed.
A thin black line appeared in it, but it didn't look very obvious.
"Zhizhizhi~!"
The Blood Moon Gu let out a hissing sound again, and Zheng Yi slowly opened his eyes.
"Isn't one drop of blood enough?"
"It's okay, I still have some here!"
"However much you want, I have it here!"
As soon as he thought about it, the other twelve Blood Moon Gu appeared from the surroundings and flew to his side.
These twelve Blood Moon Gu have been fed with its essence and blood since birth, and have long been connected with its mind.
At this moment, under his command, the twelve Blood Moon Gu lined up in a row.
He waved his hand and twelve drops of blood shot out. Twelve Blood Moon Gu also rushed up suddenly and swallowed each insect in one big gulp.
Essence and blood!
Zheng Yi quickly made hand gestures again, and accompanied by bursts of squeaking sounds of insects, the blood mist rune appeared again, covering the twelve blood moon Gu.
"Twelve drops of blood!"
"Swallow it! Swallow it all!"
"Show me your limits!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak...!"
Time passes day by day.
After the twelve Blood Moon Gu devoured the first drop of blood, Zheng Yi bled again and spilled twelve drops of blood.
The fourth batch, the fifth batch, the sixth batch...
Thick blood mist enveloped Baiyujing, making the entire Baiyujing appear unusually scarlet.
He had already ordered a seclusion, with the Shadow Guards and the Imperial Guards taking turns to guard him, and no one was allowed to approach.
The entire court was running smoothly with the assistance of Xu Mujun and the cabinet ministers.
More than a month later.
Bai Yujing.
The thick blood mist gradually dissipated, revealing Zheng Yi's true face.
He now looked almost the same as he had been a month ago.
Even his face wasn't pale.
It's just that his eyes look a little tired.
Over the past month, he had been performing blood sacrifices for the twelve Blood Moon Gu without sleep. He even had the Shadow Guards leave meals at the door, and he often forgot to eat.
But the sky pays off.
These twelve Blood Moon Gu have now been completely sacrificed successfully!
Each Blood Moon Gu has at least ten drops of essence blood fused together, depending on its own life breath, strength, and spiritual energy fluctuations!
The largest Blood Moon Gu contained fifteen drops of blood essence.
Even the weakest Blood Moon Gu had eleven drops fused together.
A total of one hundred and forty-six drops of essence and blood!
That is a lifespan of one hundred and forty-six years!
With so many lifespans, one can imagine how terrifying the blood-sacrificial spirit insects are.
If the other cultivators who are about to die knew that Zheng Yi wasted his energy and blood like this, what would they think?
But these one hundred and forty-six years of life are nothing to Zheng Yi.
As long as he is willing, he can make up for it all in just a few days!
With such losses, it is unknown to what extent these twelve Blood Moon Gu have grown?
The Blood Moon Gu is now slightly larger than before.
The originally bloated belly had long disappeared, replaced by a slender belly as thin as a mosquito, and a slightly curved mouthpart growing on its mouth.
On both sides of the mouthparts, there are two front claws, emitting a cold glow.
The three pairs of wings became increasingly transparent. Although the overall color was still scarlet, circles of fine black lines appeared on the body.
It looks more like a wasp!
"I wonder what abilities the new Blood Moon Gu has?"
As soon as he thought about it, the twelve Blood Moon Gu suddenly moved.
With almost no visible flapping of wings, twelve blood-red shadows instantly rushed out a hundred feet away, easily leaving twelve empty holes on the wall.
Like a bullet shooting.
Not only that, one of the Blood Moon Gu suddenly swung its front claws in front of its mouthparts, and two extremely tiny blood-colored moon blades shot out, leaving two tiny but very obvious cracks on the wall again.
Speed, attack, and Moon Blade have increased by at least ten times compared to before!
Moreover, the fluctuations of spiritual energy on their bodies are all above the middle stage of Qi training, infinitely close to the late stage of Qi training.
The most powerful one among them is the Blood Moon Gu that absorbed 15 drops of Zheng Yi’s blood and essence, and is definitely in the late stage of Qi training!
I don’t know how he will perform after facing the monks?
After putting away the Blood Moon Gu, Zheng Yi opened the door and walked out slowly.
"His Majesty!"
Chen Liancang's ghostly figure suddenly appeared in front of Zheng Yi.
"Mr. Chen, how is the court?"
"Everything is fine, Your Majesty..."
"Nothing, just some insights from my retreat."
Zheng Yi waved his hand and said, "Let the people from the Ministry of Works come and repair Baiyujing."
"promise."
Chen Liancang said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to report." "Oh, what is it?"
"Your Majesty, last time you asked me to investigate the situation of warriors in the capital, I have already done the investigation."
Chen Liancang said: "During the more than one month that you were in seclusion, another member of the Shadow Guard broke through to the Grandmaster level."
"Now, in the entire Shadow Guard, including this old slave, there are three innate warriors, five grandmaster warriors, and the rest are all first-grade warriors!"
"One of the Imperial Guards has broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"Two people among the Jinyiwei have broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"Two people in the Imperial Guard have broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"In the martial arts hall in the capital, someone has broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"In the clan's mansion, there is a prince who has also broken through to the Grandmaster level."
"Outside the capital, the master of Baiyun Temple has achieved a breakthrough to the Grandmaster level."
"It's hard to investigate the other ministers and noble families, but someone will definitely break through."
"There are many more warriors hiding in the martial arts world. Time is too short for me to check them all at once."
"In addition to these Grandmaster Realm warriors, there are countless other First-Rank Realm and Second-Rank Realm warriors..."
Listening to Chen Liancang's report, Zheng Yi nodded slightly.
He had anticipated this level of progress since he had taken back the seven innate spiritual energies.
Within the capital city, the number of high-level warriors will definitely increase several times in a short period of time.
The reason is simple, some warriors with high talent, physique and comprehension have been stuck at a bottleneck for years or even decades due to the lack of heaven and earth vital energy.
Once the vitality of heaven and earth increases, their bottleneck will loosen in a short period of time and then break through.
This situation may last for a year, or even longer.
But it is foreseeable that as the innate spiritual energy stabilizes, this situation will become less and less frequent until it returns to calm.
"Are there any innate warriors?"
Among so many breakthrough warriors, Zheng Yi values the innate warriors the most.
After all, an innate warrior has the chance to hurt a cultivator.
"Have."
Chen Liancang's tone was also somewhat cautious: "But this person's whereabouts are very secretive, and this old servant can't find out."
"This person achieved a breakthrough seventeen days ago in the Dongling Mountain east of the capital. His breakthrough momentum was astonishing."
"When I sent the Royal Guards to investigate, no one showed up. Perhaps they had already left."
"This person's identity is still a mystery!"
Zheng Yi ordered: "As long as he is not from one of those aristocratic families, it will be fine. But we still have to find a way to find him, understand?"
"promise!"
"By the way, are there any movements from the Southern Aristocratic Family, other forces, or Nanyue County?"
"Your Majesty, no."
"No?"
Zheng Yi had a strange look in his eyes. He dealt with the Wang family with thundering means, but this group of people still hadn't made any move?
It shouldn’t be!
Now, no matter whether it is the Jinyiwei or the Shadow Guard, they can’t find out, and even the Baihuamen...
Ok?
Something is wrong!
After all, the Jinyiwei and the Shadow Guard are imperial agencies, with many restrictions and they are being watched at all times.
But the Baihua Sect is a martial arts sect that started out as a brothel, yet they couldn't find out anything.
Could it be that the Baihua Sect was also bribed?
Or is there something fishy going on with Baihuamen?
Zheng Yi touched his chin and immediately made a decision in his mind.
"Since you still don't want to take action, then I will give you a chance and an excuse!"
"I'm ready, let's see how you guys take it!"
"Want to rebel? Still preparing? Then I will force you to rebel!"
"Mr. Chen, pass on the message to General Xu Mujun, as well as Wang Anshi, Yuan Qichang, and Cai Dashi."
"promise!"
More than an hour later, Xu Mujun and others came to meet the emperor.
Baiyujing was under renovation, so Zheng Yi had to meet with several people in Qiankun Hall.
"Your Majesty, I have received your respect. May our Emperor live long and long!"
"No need to be so polite, my dear ministers, please stand up and take your seats."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Several people sat down one after another, but Zheng Yi did not speak. Instead, he looked at them.
Needless to say, although Xu Mujun is not the prime minister now, his status and power have long surpassed that of the prime minister.
He is second to none and above ten thousand people.
Wang Anshi, who was beside him, was not only the assistant minister of the cabinet, but also the left vice minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
In just a few years, he has reached this position, which can be described as a meteoric rise.
Yuan Qichang, Left Vice-Censor-in-Chief, Cabinet official, and the second-in-command of the Censorate.
Cai Dashi, Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Cabinet official, and the third most important person in the Ministry of Rites.
If it weren't for his problematic background, Zheng Yi would have wanted to promote him to the position of Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Unfortunately, the ministers opposed it, so he had to concurrently serve as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
"I wonder why Your Majesty summoned us today?"
Among the four, Xu Mujun has the highest military rank, so of course he is the one who issues the document.
"General Xu, God bless Dayu. In the past few months, many young warriors have emerged in Dayu. There are already more than ten warriors at the Grandmaster level, and some warriors are even trying to break through to the Innate level!"
Zheng Yi said: "This is a good omen for our Dayu, and it is also a major event."
"But the knight breaks the law with force!"
"It's easier to deal with warriors belonging to my court. They have the imperial edict to uphold their duty and will not provoke the people."
"But some martial artists from sects, or people from martial arts schools or gangs who have made a lucky breakthrough, they all act based on their passion, which can easily lead to conflicts."
"That's why I invited Mr. Xu here today to discuss a suitable solution."
"Not only can I manage this group of warriors, but I can also make them work for Dayu, not disturb the people, and protect the country."
"There are so many high-level warriors?"
Xu Mujun was also a little surprised, but he quickly reacted: "I wonder what your majesty has in mind?"
