Chapter 1269 Empress, refining divine blood!
Great Zhou Dynasty, Shangjing!
Inside the magnificent royal palace, a group of civil and military officials stood with their heads bowed.
suddenly.
An indifferent voice came from the high dragon throne.
"Do you have any objections?"
An extremely majestic beautiful woman wearing a Nine-Sky Phoenix robe and a multicolored phoenix crown on her head sat on the dragon throne, looking at the court officials below and speaking with an indifferent expression.
at this time.
An old man in a purple robe stepped out and glared at the female emperor on the platform, saying:
“Since ancient times, no woman has ever ascended the throne of Dabao!
Please, Queen Mother, return the government to the Crown Prince, and let us, the regent ministers, assist you."
Hear the words.
The beautiful woman sitting on the dragon chair had an unchanged expression. She narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at the many civil and military officials in the hall. She chuckled and said:
"Do you have any objections to Minister Zhou's proposal?"
Although the voice was plain, it was like a thunderclap in the ears of the civil and military officials, and they were instantly frightened.
Immediately, a court official stepped forward and pointed at Zhou Fuchen angrily, saying:
"Since Your Majesty took over the power of approving documents and assisted the late emperor in handling state affairs, how many people have you saved?"
"How many bandits have been wiped out, and how many corrupt officials have been punished?"
"It's even more useful for expanding territory!"
"The present Zhou Dynasty is now peaceful and prosperous, and the governance is clear and honest, all thanks to your Majesty's hard work all night long!"
"If Minister Zhou insists on forcing Your Majesty to abdicate, I will never allow you to succeed even if I risk my life."
This statement came out.
At that moment, many civil and military officials were secretly resentful.
'How come you are just one step slower!'
"This time, old man Wang Qiqian got the upper hand."
'Perhaps, the long-awaited first-class shop position will fall into the hands of this old guy! '
Just when many civil and military officials secretly hated the loss of the initiative...
soon.
Some ministers came out to criticize.
"What Mr. Wang said is right."
"Nowadays, who among the people of the world does not remember your majesty's kindness..."
"This time, Lord Zhou was disrespectful in front of the palace. Your Majesty, please punish him severely!"
"You have no respect for your majesty and must be severely punished. Your Majesty..."
"···"
of course!
There were also court officials who had different thoughts, but they did not agree.
After all these years of getting along, they know His Majesty's methods all too well.
Although she is a woman, her methods and scheming are all top-notch. Even the emperors of all dynasties can hardly match her.
More than ten years ago, Your Majesty before you entered the harem as a beautiful girl, rose step by step, and finally ascended to the throne of Queen, the mother of the country.
Later, he read memorials for the previous emperor, and then took charge of the power of approving documents, winning over court officials, appointing governors, placing confidants, holding military power and financial power...
Finally, during the Great Purge, he ascended to the throne as a woman.
She was also the first female emperor of the Zhou Dynasty.
The only pity is that the late emperor left no offspring.
otherwise.
The current political situation would not have developed to the point it is today.
Therefore, although they were dissatisfied in their hearts and even had the idea of overthrowing the empress's rule, no one dared to refute the empress's order on the surface.
Especially since another elder in the clan was about to meet with disaster, they were also very sad and angry.
"Alas... the last minister of the royal family in office will probably end up in disgrace."
"From now on, there will be no more dissenting voices in the court."
"..."
Just when these ministers who were loyal to the Zhou royal family were secretly feeling regretful.
The empress, sitting on the throne, glanced indifferently at Zhou Fuchen who was besieged by the ministers, and then said calmly:
"Zhou Fuchen, you have no respect for the emperor and behaved inappropriately in front of the palace. You should be dismissed..."
As the empress gave the order, the tall and mighty imperial guards guarding outside the hall stepped into the hall and pulled him out.
Simultaneously.
A roar came from outside the hall.
"Evil Queen, you have usurped the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you will not die a good death!"
"..."
As the Imperial Guards dragged Zhou Fuchen away, the roars gradually died down and peace returned to the hall.
But the court officials in the hall were terrified.
after all.
The curse from that royal family minister just now was too explicit and too harsh.
They were also afraid that the empress would be angry and implicate innocent people like them.
however.
In fact, the empress sitting on the dragon throne seemed not to have heard the scolding. Her pretty face was extremely calm and indifferent, as if she had no emotion at all.
Just as all the court officials were anxious, the empress said calmly:
"Except for Minister Zhou, is there any other minister who opposes the reform?"
Hear the words.
All the court officials immediately began to sing praises.
"This reform can be said to be a world-changing event. It is enough to restore the vitality of our Great Zhou Dynasty and reduce the burden on the people..."
"Your Majesty, this reform is for the benefit of all the people, and I also support it!"
"···"
For a while.
The atmosphere in the hall is extremely harmonious.
Soon, a sharp voice sounded in the hall.
"Retreat!"
The words fell.
The empress, sitting on the throne, left the hall with the help of the imperial ladies-in-waiting.
Then...
All the civil and military officials in the hall left in groups of three or five.
In the harem, in a bedroom...
"Your Majesty, this is a snack carefully prepared by the imperial kitchen. Would you like to try it?"
While talking.
A very pretty lady-in-waiting came in carrying a tray.
Hear the words.
The empress waved her hand and said calmly:
"Just leave it there for now!"
"Yes!"
The words fell.
The female official put down the tray, bowed, then retreated and closed the door.
They knew the empress's habits very well. When there was nothing going on, there would not be a single palace maid or female official serving her in the bedroom, nor would there be anyone else.
This is also the Empress's long-standing habit.
At this moment, the empress, who usually liked to taste snacks, did not even glance at the plate of exquisite snacks on the table.
Her eyes were deep as she stared into the void, as if she was recalling something?
"Eighteen years!"
"I have been in the world for eighteen years and have been crowned as a great lady. It is time to fulfill my mother's wish to gain experience in the world."
On second thought!
When she thought about the current political situation, she couldn't help but reject the idea of ending her training.
Without her suppression, the Great Zhou would immediately fall into a turbulent situation of warring princes.
"I have come this far in the past eighteen years, so I won't miss two more. Besides, the elixir I took to improve my cultivation will last me a few more years."
“After a few years, the reforms will be completely consolidated.
If I leave at that time, I will be doing justice to the people of Great Zhou!"
"And this won't interfere with your practice."
As soon as she thought about cultivation, the empress thought of her own blood feud. A cold light flashed in her phoenix eyes, and she said coldly in her heart:
"Bai Clan, you wait for me."
Tight and.
The empress's body was surrounded by a flash of spiritual light, and she turned into a stream of light, sank into the earth, and disappeared in the palace.
Not bad.
The Queen of the Great Zhou was Chu Ling'er, who entered the world to gain experience according to Shangguan Qingyu's last words.
Over the years, apart from using the methods of monks at the beginning, she relied entirely on her own planning and created miracles in the Great Zhou Dynasty as a woman.
same.
As time goes by, she is no longer a simple and ignorant little monk. Her scheming and scheming are definitely no worse than those bureaucrats.
Even worse.
The officialdom is a melting pot and is definitely the best place to temper one's character.
Chu Ling'er's transformation is a very obvious example.
······
the other side.
Just as Chu Ling'er continued to gain experience in the world...
Secret realm, inside the teleportation room.
Cheng Buzheng, who was walking cross-legged on the cushion, also made the last hand seal.
A light shout sounded in the transport room.
"out!"
As the last seal was performed, the illusory treasure tripod suspended in the air suddenly collapsed on its own, turned into a bright light spot, and melted into the void.
Simultaneously.
Colorful rays of light rose from the illusory treasure tripod, and a large tripod with intricate patterns all over its body and an ancient shape emerged from it.
See this.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, hesitated for a moment and murmured in his heart:
"This precious tripod is still used as both an elixir and a tool, so let's just call it the [Daoyi Lingding]!"
next moment.
As soon as he thought of it, the small, exquisite and extremely simple [Daoyi Lingding] turned into a stream of light and appeared in his palm.
Simultaneously.
The illusory tripod suspended in the air also collapsed and disappeared at this moment.
At this moment, the slowly burning Thunder Dragon Sky Fire curled up into a ball and turned into a ray of lightning, which sank into the body of Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion.
In this regard.
Cheng Buzheng didn't care.
At this moment, his eyes fell on the small and exquisite tripod in his palm, and he was carefully examining it...
"Not bad!"
"Its grade is among the best among the top magic weapons, and it is only one level lower than those top magic weapons."
"However, this tripod is a treasure that can be used as both an elixir and a tool. It is much more useful than those top-quality treasure furnaces and top-quality spiritual tripods!"
After Cheng Buzheng looked at the brand new [Daoyi Lingding] in his hand for a while, he flipped his hand and made a move...
When I looked again, the small and exquisite tripod had disappeared.
Followed by.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion, did not make any other movements. He slowly closed his eyes and began to recover the magic power and spiritual strength consumed in refining the treasure.
after all.
It is not an easy task to refine a top-grade magic weapon.
It's really time-consuming and laborious.
Moreover, this top-grade magical weapon is a spiritual cauldron that can be used as both an elixir and a tool, and it is even more difficult to refine.
otherwise.
Refining cauldrons and alchemy furnaces will not appear in the world, which is extremely rare.
And the higher the grade, the smaller the quantity in stock.
Because the spiritual materials needed to refine the alchemy furnace and refining cauldron are extremely sophisticated, and rare structural drawings are also needed.
The most important thing is that to refine such auxiliary magic weapons, one needs a very high level of attainment in treasure refining.
Ordinary treasure refining masters do not have this ability.
Therefore.
This also means that the higher the grade of a weapon refining cauldron or an alchemy furnace, the rarer they are.
same.
Cheng Buzheng had consumed nearly half of his magic power in refining this spiritual cauldron.
It was at the moment when Cheng Buzheng closed his eyes.
The vast waves spread from all over his body.
next interest.
The spiritual energy in the secret realm rioted!
Endless spiritual energy gathered together, forming a surging torrent of spiritual energy, rushing madly towards this teleportation room.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion, had his figure obscured by the rich spiritual energy, and all he could see was a hazy scene.
But inside the teleport room...
The surging torrent of spiritual energy was flowing away at a terrifying speed!
It seemed as if in the misty teleportation room, there was a terrifying existence hidden, madly devouring the vast flow of spiritual energy.
After a long time.
The flow of spiritual energy suddenly stopped, and the hazy transmission room gradually became clear.
Lean less.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, waved his hand...
A shell as white as jade appeared in the palm of his hand.
Not bad.
This storage shell was exactly the spoils he had looted from a half-step demon lord.
It contained his most precious treasure.
A thought came to mind.
Drops of golden divine blood floated in front of him.
There is also a large amount of light golden divine blood mixed in it.
The former is the fourth-level divine blood.
The latter is the third-level divine blood.
See this scene.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, hesitated for a moment and thought to himself:
"Let's put away the fourth-level divine blood first!"
"Purify the third-level divine blood first and see what the effect is?"
Think of this.
Cheng Buzheng did not delay and immediately changed his mind.
The golden divine blood that was floating in the void disappeared out of thin air, leaving only the light golden divine blood floating in the air.
Simultaneously.
Diamond-shaped blood-red crystals were suspended above his palm, spinning around.
Not bad.
These diamond-shaped blood crystals are the new version of [Blood Linglong] that Cheng Buzheng spent a huge amount of money to refine.
It is also an auxiliary magic weapon for purifying divine blood.
Moreover, each [Blood Linglong] is a top-grade magic weapon.
It is also extremely difficult to refine!
Followed by.
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, waved his hand...
One after another, [Blood Linglong] fell in different directions and hovered in the air.
But this is not the end.
If one wants to purify the divine blood, relying solely on the independent [Blood Linglong] is not enough. One needs to rely on the power of the formation, integrate them together, and then use the amplitude of the formation to exert a more powerful effect.
So, Cheng Buzheng waved his hand again...
A row of blood-red flags stood in the air and appeared in front of Cheng Buzheng.
Not bad.
These blood-red flags were exactly the formation that Cheng Buzheng had refined a long time ago.
It is also a special formation deduced with a number of [Blood Linglong] as the support.
Then he had an idea...
There was a lot of blood light in the teleportation room, and countless blood light patterns spread out, occupying a piece of void, as if being placed in a three-dimensional space of layered blood-colored net.
at this time!
The [Blood Linglong]s floating in the void and falling in different directions suddenly moved and fell into the layers of blood nets one after another.
Once back in place!
Layer upon layer of blood-colored veins began to flash one after another.
At the same time, a mysterious wave spread out.
Invisible forces gathered towards the center of the formation.
All of a sudden.
The center of the formation began to rotate, and then a palm-sized blood-red vortex condensed in the center of the formation, emitting mysterious fluctuations.
Seeing this, Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, had an idea...
A strange vision appeared in his eyes, and golden light flowed.
Simultaneously.
At this moment, Cheng Buzheng's eyes fell on the strange formation in front of him.
I looked at it carefully for a while.
Only then was he sure that there were no loopholes in the formation before him.
Followed by.
Cheng Buzheng retracted his gaze and pointed in the air...
A drop of light golden third-level divine blood turned into a stream of light and sank into the palm-sized blood-colored vortex at the center of the formation.
At the same time, he made a seal with his hands.
A light shout sounded in the transport room.
"Refining!"
In an instant!
The blood-red vortex that appeared in the center of the formation began to spin wildly.
