Chapter 281 - 272: The Elixir for Re-Cleansing Meridians
...
In the vast, untamed Beiming land,
Thousands of domains intersect, countless imperial dynasties beyond measure. The great monster beast mountain ranges and life forbidden zones, for ordinary people, even if traveling at Heaven, would take at least a year and a half to cross all of Beiming.
Langya Mountain Range was located in the central region of the Beiming land. Now, Mo Wangchen and Yaoyao were in a certain nation within the Jiangling Domain.
The Jiangling Domain and the Langya Mountain Range were both centrally located in the Beiming land, not far from each other.
The two traveled leisurely, wandering through various nations, in stark contrast to the tense situation across the whole of Beiming, enjoying a certain ease.
"Ming Country’s Human Emperor just passed away. Now the court is in chaos, although the Crown Prince is exceptionally intelligent, his cultivation talent is rather ordinary. At nearly thirty years old, he only possesses the ninth tier of the Spirit Transformation Realm. He cannot intimidate the court and commoners. Rumor has it that at Ming Country’s border, the National Guardian Marshal, a peak Primordial Spirit Realm expert, commands a million troops, intending to march on the capital to usurp the throne!"
"Ming Country is one of the hundred nations in the Jiangling Domain. Although its strength is not top-tier, it has a population of billions. The impending chaos might not affect cultivators much, but for ordinary citizens, it is a disaster. If the National Guardian Marshal indeed sends troops to the capital, how many people will be displaced?"
Walking within the Ming Country Capital, Mo Wangchen and Yaoyao noticed it was not as prosperous as expected. Instead, a sense of desolation prevailed. The commoners were uncertain, and many shops had long closed.
From the discussions around them, they learned that the former Human Emperor of Ming Country had just passed, and now the Crown Prince ascended the throne. Although intellectually brilliant, due to mediocre cultivation talent, he could not intimidate the court. The National Guardian Marshal, commanding a heavy army, intended to usurp the throne.
