"Enough with the nonsense," Li Taibai gritted his teeth. "Old Zhang, let me see what you mean by Yin and Yang!"
He stared at the other person's expression, clearly extremely dissatisfied with his pretentious attitude.
"Let's put this matter aside for now." Ximen Yu glanced at him and interrupted, "The Seven Dragon Heads have just broken through and their realm is not yet stable. Let's go and consolidate our cultivation first."
Upon hearing Ximen Yu speak, Li Bai smiled awkwardly and had no choice but to give up.
As the ten-day deadline approaches, the Nine Provinces are in turmoil.
The reasons for this include the reopening of the Kyushu combat power ceiling ranking and the newly added Kyushu Hundred Flowers Ranking, as well as the return of Yunzhou, which has attracted attention from all sides.
Since the reappearance of Yunzhou, countless martial arts practitioners have been drawn by the news and have gone to investigate.
After exchanging ideas, both sides were amazed by what they had learned from each other.
When the people of the original Nine Provinces Jianghu learned that Yunzhou had Wushuang City, Tianxia Hui, Tianjian Wuming, Jiansheng Dugu Jian, and the supreme martial arts world yet had no imperial dynasty, they were all surprised and looked on with surprise.
To their even greater surprise, the strength of the Jianghu in Yunzhou was actually a notch above that of the original Kyushu!
The people of Yunzhou were also deeply intrigued by the original layout of the Nine Provinces. The eight great dynasties, the Azure Dragon Society, and the vast, boundless territory all amazed them.
As the news spread, people in the martial arts world became increasingly curious about each other, and many simply packed their bags and embarked on a journey to find out for themselves.
For a time, the entire Kyushu region was bustling with activity.
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from the heavens, shaking the entire land.
People seemed to sense something and all looked up.
The Heavenly Ranking shone brightly, dazzling and captivating. At the same time, a majestic yet indifferent voice resounded in the minds of all beings—
"Ten days have passed, and the Kyushu Power Ranking has reopened!"
The land was shaken, and all people looked up at the heavens.
The lights in Xianyang Palace flickered.
Ying Zheng stood with his hands behind his back in front of the palace, his brows revealing a sharp and ruthless demeanor.
"finally......"
A slight smile played on his lips, and a look of inquiry ignited in his eyes.
The bronze lamp burst open with a single flame.
The emperor's gaze pierced through the vermilion pillars, as if he wanted to see all the secrets of the Nine Provinces.
Especially that newly returned territory of Yunzhou—
Just how many earth-shattering existences are hidden there?
........
Inside the grassland king's tent.
Temujin stroked his golden sword, his eagle eyes flashing like lightning.
"The Azure Dragon Society..."
He suddenly grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
Wolves always need to ascertain the extent of their prey's strength.
The Heavenly Ranking is the best mirror to reveal true nature.
........
On the high platform of the World Alliance.
The powerful man's dark cloak fluttered in the wind.
"The pressure from Heaven has reached this level!"
His palm surged with inner energy, causing the jade pendant at his waist to ring incessantly.
Since destiny is in my hands—
Why not embrace the beauty and diversity of this land?
..........
The lingering notes of the erhu drifted through the quiet courtyard.
The tip of the ring finger hovered on the string, not falling for a long time.
The Heavenly Sword Realm was shaken by a golden list.
A look of shock suddenly flashed across that weathered face.
When everyone's attention was drawn, filled with curiosity and anticipation,
The Heavenly Ranking suddenly rippled.
As a faint light flowed...
Several lines of text gradually appeared:
[Nine Provinces Power Ranking - 40th Place...]
[Nine Provinces Battle Power Ranking - (tied) 40th: Twenty-Four Solar Terms, Realm: Mid-stage Celestial Being.]
[Origin: Directly under the Azure Dragon Squad of the Azure Dragon Society.]
It is widely known that the Azure Dragon Society is a mysterious and powerful organization.
Its internal hierarchy is very strict.
The entire operation is overseen by seven dragon heads.
[It is divided into twelve halls, corresponding to the twelve months.]
Each season consists of three sessions, and there are four seasons in total.
[Further down, there are 365 branch flanks, which correspond to the number of the heavens.]
What is little known is that the Azure Dragon Society also has another Azure Dragon Squad.
This team originated from Ximen Yu's Azure Dragon Plan.
[A total of thirty people, with twenty-four seats representing the twenty-four solar terms.]
They named their activities after the solar terms, from the Beginning of Spring to the Great Cold.
[Since its inception, it has been stationed in the Azure Dragon Society's secret territory.]
[I have studied under Ximen Yu personally, and we have been companions day and night for decades.]
Although his personal cultivation had stopped at the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm,
Yet, they possess an astonishing combined attack technique—
[The formation's power doubles with each additional person added!]
[With twenty-four people joining forces, they could shake the supreme myth!]
This is the Azure Dragon Society's hidden trump card!
[Heaven's Commentary: Scattered, they can stand alone; united, they awe the entire land!]
[Heavenly Blessing: 24 Heart-to-Heart Pills (Consumers' hearts are connected)]
The moment the words on the list of successful candidates disappeared,
The land of Kyushu was completely silent.
Whether they are native Kyushu residents or visitors from Unshu.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
After a long while, everyone gradually came to their senses from the shock.
Gasps of gas echoed throughout Kyushu.
Whether in the past or present,
Realm experts are rare and highly sought-after masters!
Looking at the entire martial arts world,
It's hard to say that a powerhouse of this level is one in a billion.
But at least he is a peerless genius, one in a million!
Its rarity,
You can imagine!!
With just the Azure Dragon Plan,
It actually created twenty-four powerful individuals at this level at the same time!
If the Heavenly Path Golden List had not been made public...
Even if it meant risking their lives, no one would believe it was true!
Even if it comes at the cost of severing one's future in martial arts,
But this is the Celestial Realm!
The threshold that the vast majority of martial artists under heaven cannot reach, even if they spend their entire lives!
The entire martial arts world of Kyushu was in an uproar!
The clamor of discussion swept across the land like a tidal wave.
The sound was so loud it almost pierced the heavens.
Many meticulous martial arts masters were shocked when they saw this scene!
The sects native to Kyushu were especially shocked!
They never expected that...
The Azure Dragon Society has such a profound foundation!
In a moment of shock,
Many people secretly rejoiced:
Fortunately, I did not respond to the Cihang Jingzhai's punitive alliance back then.
Just by using these twenty-four solar terms,
Which sect in the entire world can rival it?!
..........
Inside the Xianyang Palace, the capital of the Qin Dynasty.
"The Twenty-Four Solar Terms?"
"Now that the months, dates, seasons, and solar terms are all complete..."
"Does the concepts of 'year' and 'zodiac animal' still exist?"
Ying Zheng gazed at the Heavenly Dao Golden List in the sky.
His usually composed face now showed a thoughtful expression.
This is not unfounded speculation.
The organizational structure of the Green Dragon Society
This inevitably leads one to make such a connection.
Since it already includes December, 365 days, the four seasons, and the twenty-four solar terms...
The twelve zodiac animals are then reconfigured in relation to the "year" system.
Isn't that perfectly reasonable?
The emperor's expression gradually became solemn.
The sheer number of solar terms alone reveals the unfathomable and terrifying depths of the Azure Dragon Society!
If there really are years and twelve zodiac animals, or similar shrines, then...
How could their strength be inferior?
