A grand ceremony was also held in Songmo Mansion. All Li Jinzhong's soldiers were transferred to the front line, and only a few thousand were stationed in Songmo Mansion. He transferred all these soldiers to the castle to participate in his sweating ceremony with the residents of the city.

After a winter of consumption, there was very little leftover food and meat in the city. He still ordered people to take it out and distribute it to his people. Although his people obviously no longer supported him as they did in the past, and they came to the ceremony just to get a small amount of food.

Poor food is better than no food at all.

Of course Li Jinzhong could see these subtle emotions, so he did not force the ceremony. He hastily put on the Khan's hat, climbed onto an earthen platform on the south bank of the river, read out the proclamation of Khan, and then returned to the castle.

In the evening, another banquet was held in the Governor's Mansion, and the civil and military officials who stayed behind came to eat this celebration banquet, although it was not a sumptuous meal, but it was definitely filling.

Li Jinzhong sat on it, with a smile always on his face, even if he was a little embarrassed, it was still a satisfied smile. In any case, he realized his dream of becoming a khan, and now he is the supreme khan, an emperor on par with the Great Zhou.

This is the only thing that can make him smile. The battle ahead is losing consecutive battles, and the officers and soldiers are overwhelming. They will soon reach Songmo Mansion, and will soon destroy his lair.

As a khan, he did not want to escape into the mountains. He was going to wait for the Zhou army here. Now that he was a khan, he should not be underestimated even if he was defeated. He made his final struggle in Songmo Mansion.

Thinking of this, he laughed loudly and said: "There is no good wine, let's just eat and drink more, haha!" There were only a few people below who responded, and no one stopped to eat or drink. No one knew what else would happen after this meal.

No next meal.

Although Li Jinzhong was smiling, his face was gloomy. Xu Jingzhen came up to comfort him and said, "Khan, you'd better take this group of elite soldiers into Xiaoxing'an Mountains, where you can create a new world."

Li Jinzhong drank the wine in his glass and shook his head repeatedly. He sat feebly on the big chair, sitting on a tiger skin, and watched the civil and military officials in the hall retire one after another.

Wanyan Huaren also advised: "Khan, we should evacuate here." Li Jinzhong threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground and said drunkenly: "No, I just won't leave! I won't leave Songmo Mansion!"

***

After Cheng Xuanying bid farewell to Ye Qilang and others, he left Huaiyi's army. They turned northeast and looked at Laohei Mountain in Xiaoxing'an Mountains.

Before arriving at Laohei Mountain at this time, Cheng Xuanying used his internal scenery skills to absorb the supernatural energy around him. As expected, he found that the energy of heaven and earth in this area was stronger and more abundant than other places, even the Black Sand City where he had practiced for decades.

A steady stream of external energy flows into the Laogong points of both palms like a tide.

But this supernatural energy contains a lot of impurities, which can cause side effects of practicing. It’s not as simple as the supernatural energy in Shacheng?br/

Jiao Huiqing and Chen Ziang practice here, but they don't feel the impurities in this breath. This is because they use dragon beads and dragon beads to filter them before incorporating them into their bodies. The dragon beads have already filtered out the impurities of these essences, and the spiritual energy transmitted from the dragon beads

All the energy can be absorbed by the human body.

Cheng Xuanying explained this, Jiao Huiqing, and Pei Ting suddenly realized. Pei Ting said: "Brother, the effect of practicing is most obvious when the aurora appears on Laohei Mountain."

At this time, the three of them had crossed the Songnen Plain, with Laohei Mountain in the distance. In this continuous mountain range, most of the ice and snow had melted away, and only one peak was still covered under the ice and snow. It was the peak that Jingru reached during that training session.

There were many ice caves there. In one of the ice caves, Jingru saw the remains of an old Taoist priest and also discovered the Five Elements Magic Technique.

The three of them climbed up Laohei Mountain. In front of them was a calm lake, lying peacefully under the blue sky. This was where Chen Ziang and the others practiced. In winter, all the ice in the lake melted, turning into a dark green lake.

This may be the center of the energy source. Cheng Xuanying faced the lake and sat down to meditate. Jiao Huiqing said with a smile: "Brother, if you understand the mystery carefully, you might be able to become half a god."

The sky is getting dark, tonight is the crescent moon, and the stars in the sky are extremely bright. Under the dark night, the lake's faint silver light shines, and there seem to be thousands of silver fish swimming on the water.

Cheng Xuanying put aside his distracting thoughts and quickly entered a state of selfless practice. The slightly cold air and abundant energy were circulated through his body through the exercise. This powerful energy circulated through the meridians in the body and gathered in the Dantian. He felt the true energy in the Dantian.

The energy seemed to condense into one entity and was exported out of his body!

His body became very light, but the true energy became qualitative. It seemed to jump out of his body! This wonderful feeling appeared for the first time after he practiced Neijing Gong, which surprised Cheng Xuanying.

Cheng Xuanying has not yet fully realized that this is the state of the legendary Nascent Soul. His internal skills have reached the ninth level with the help of external energy!

Jiao Huiqing and Pei Ting were also meditating next to them. After practicing for a long time, Jiao Huiqing said to himself: "This essence is not filtered by dragon beads, so it is uncomfortable to put it into the body..."

As he spoke, he slowed down the pace of absorbing the energy from the outside. Pei Ting also slowed down the speed of breathing in and out with him, absorbing only a very small amount of energy each time. In this way, after the outside energy enters the body, it no longer

I had a slight burning sensation just now.

Cheng Xuanying also heard the two people's breathing slowing down, and realized that this energy was strong and rough, which would harm the body's meridians. But he got excited and mastered the technique of Yuan Ying leaving the body, so naturally he didn't

Will give up easily.

He took the Nascent Soul back into his body. At this time, a soft aurora faintly appeared above the lake, like a light gauze, the purple and white light was flying in the sky, if it was there or not. It seemed to be flying above the nine heavens, but it was also suspicious.

Half a hundred feet in the air!

Cheng Xuanying jumped up and jumped into the lake! Following his footsteps, tiny ripples appeared on the lake. He actually did not drown in the water, but flew like feathers on the water!

Pei Ting opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe what he saw before him, and said: "Could it be that my eldest brother has become an immortal?!" Jiao Huiqing looked at it for a long time, shook his head and said: "Probably he has reached a very high level. If he becomes an immortal, wouldn't it be necessary?"

Fly?"

Cheng Xuanying's body also shone slightly with the exercise, like a firefly, flying on the water surface, playing a set of Baguazhang. He tried to jump into the sky several times, but he jumped several feet high and fell down.

Several feet high is an incredible height for ordinary people, but it is obviously not able to fly in the air.

After practicing the palm technique for more than half an hour, Cheng Xuanying jumped back excitedly and said: "If you keep practicing like this, I'm sure I can make great progress, haha!" His words were full of excitement.

Jiao Huiqing reminded: "Brother, you must be careful. Although the energy here is strong, it can also hurt the body. You still need to get a dragon ball before you can practice with peace of mind."

Cheng Xuanying nodded and said: "My second brother is right. My eldest brother has been practicing martial arts for a long time and has his own set of techniques that can filter out impurities in the essence. This is really a good place to practice martial arts. You guys introduced it correctly."

The sky was already dark, and none of the three were sleepy. Jiao Huiqing went down the mountain to hunt at dawn, while Pei Ting gathered firewood and lit a bonfire. Cheng Xuanying didn't say anything else, and flew away from the top of Laohei Mountain and headed straight for the ice peak next to it.

.

This is a volcanic landform, but there is an ice peak covered with snow all year round, which is a bit strange. Cheng Xuanying quickly climbed up the snow mountain and found that there were many caves in the mountain, and the caves were sealed by ice.

He walked back and forth on the mountain twice, but still couldn't find any reason for the long-term snow accumulation here. He sat down in front of an ice cave, and unconsciously started the inner scene breath again. Suddenly, he felt that the strength of the energy absorbed here was stronger than

The top of Laohei Mountain is a little weaker, but its essence seems to be much purer.

Cheng Xuanying thought, maybe this is the energy of the dark volcano, and this iceberg can have a similar effect to a dragon ball, filtering out the hot and dry impurities in the volcanic essence. Therefore, it will be much more comfortable to absorb it into the body.

Unconsciously, he practiced until noon before Cheng Xuanying took off his skills. When he returned to Laohei Mountain, several rabbits had been roasted on the bonfire. After the three of them shared the food, they took two more rabbits with them on the road.

After eating, they headed towards Songmo Mansion.

Jiao Huiqing said: "If Master Chen doesn't practice here, he'll probably be working in Songmo Mansion."
