Chapter 1184: Chapter 508: Jin Chanzi Returns, Guanyin Appears!
Along the coast of the Eastern Continent, the originally calm sea surface suddenly seemed stirred by an invisible giant hand, raising endless towering waves.
Endless seawater turned into a cataclysmic tsunami, madly sweeping toward the land, the entire sea roaring as it surged.
A tsunami of this scale.
As if wanting to overturn all the earth.
"Water Control Barrier, activate!"
At this critical instant, from above the Qin Territory, the many experts guarding Qin appeared in an instant.
Their expressions were solemn as they quickly redirected their own mana, fully activating the Formation that had long since been laid.
In a flash.
Boom!
Circles of radiance appeared in the Void.
The entire coastal region suddenly flickered with light, and a barrier shimmering with golden light rose slowly like a Heavenly Trace.
Blocking all the land behind it.
Boom, boom, boom!
When those endless towering waves surged forward, they slammed fiercely against the Formation’s Forbidden barrier, emitting a dull yet shocking sound and spraying water high into the sky.
Faced with such raging waves, that could easily flatten everything.
This seemingly intangible barrier was nonetheless indestructible; no matter how the waves howled and battered, they could not break through this line of defense and ultimately failed to invade Qin’s Territory.
However.
That such a strange, colossal surge had suddenly arisen upon the East Sea was, of course, immediately memorialized level by level by the officials of this great State.
Above the Daqin Heavenly Palace!
"Imperial Grandfather."
Zhao Qi’s expression was urgent as he strode forward, respectfully speaking to Ying Zheng seated high above: "A report has just arrived."
"A sudden deluge has risen upon the East Sea, sweeping along Qin’s coasts."
"Fortunately, the Immortal Cultivation Tributors guarding the coastline activated the Water Control Barrier in time, so that the coastal commoners remained safe and sound."
In Qin today, although Ying Zheng was still that supreme Sovereign, most daily affairs had already been entrusted to Zhao Qi to handle.
Such emergency matters were first reported directly to Zhao Qi.
"The East Sea Coast..." Ying Zheng’s brows furrowed slightly, with a touch of contemplation, then he slowly spoke: "Now that the Dragon Clan fears Qin attacking at any moment, and has always known proper measure, they absolutely would not dare raise storms here for no reason."
"It seems something must have happened in the East Sea."
"Imperial Grandfather is wise." Zhao Qi slightly bowed and immediately said, "Your grandson has already sent people to investigate."
Ying Zheng smiled faintly, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face as he praised, "It was your cleverness back then—able to discern the cause in the East Sea and foresee the consequences—so you ordered the Array Hall to properly lay down the Formation ahead of time."
"Otherwise, facing such waves this time, it really would not have been easy to deal with."
Zhao Qi smiled modestly and said, "Your grandson knows well that Qin will sooner or later send troops against the East Sea, and that the Dragon Clan is most adept at controlling wind and rain."
"Making preparations early is also to prevent the commoners from suffering calamity."
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold gleam flashing within as he asked, "What is the current state of the various armies?"
"Each Shangjiangjun, as well as the Main Generals, have all successfully taken up their posts." Zhao Qi calmly reported, "This expansion of the army is undoubtedly a great boon for Qin."
"Especially the officers originally in the army—having rendered countless illustrious military merits for Qin, yet never having had the chance to be promoted."
"Now four new grand camps have been established, adding four Shangjiangjun and forty Main Generals."
"These people have all been carefully selected from among the meritorious War Generals of the original grand camps."
"After the army is initially formed, we will first send them to the Three Immortal Islands for Cultivation, to cultivate the Army Soul Battle Array. Once their cultivation is successful, they can officially become a formed army."
"You must supervise this with all your strength." Ying Zheng’s tone was firm, filled with recognition of Zhao Qi: "Whenever the army is fully formed, that is when Qin will move troops against the East Sea."
"The Dragon Clan... it is time to settle this."
"Your grandson understands." Zhao Qi immediately straightened his posture and accepted the order.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Qi continued, "However, your grandson believes that apart from the two grand camps stationed at the junction of the two States, the other four grand camps can be redeployed to the coast first, ready to set out at any time."
"And the newly established four grand camps will serve as support. As they say, training troops is only truly tempered upon the battlefield."
Ying Zheng pondered briefly, then slowly nodded and said in a deep voice, "Do as you suggest."
...
Huaguo Mountain!
"Monkeys and little monkeys, your Great King has brought good stuff back for you!"
Sun Wukong returned as a streak of dazzling golden light.
By now, he had completely changed his appearance. The Chain Armor on his body gleamed with a cold radiance, every scale of armor seeming to contain tremendous power, and the cloak behind him fluttered in the wind.
With such an outfit, he already bore the bearing of the future Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
Clearly, these were the treasures Sun Wukong had obtained from the Dragon King.
As soon as Sun Wukong came back, the monkey hordes on Huaguo Mountain instantly boiled over; countless monkeys leapt up and down, cheering in delight.
Many demon soldiers also quickly gathered, surrounding Sun Wukong in a tight circle, their eyes full of worship and expectation.
Sun Wukong stood atop a massive boulder, body straight and tall, awe-inspiring and imposing.
Without the slightest hesitation, he swept his great hand in a bold flourish.
In an instant, light flickered in the sky, and countless weapons fell like raindrops.
Sabers, spears, swords, halberds of all kinds, everything one could wish for, and each one emitted a faint Immortal Energy—clearly rare Immortal Artifacts.
"Monkeys and little monkeys, one piece each!" Sun Wukong shouted loudly, his voice echoing across all of Huaguo Mountain: "From today on, my Huaguo Mountain will start sharpening our arms and properly drilling our troops!"
"Great King, Divine Power! Great King, Divine Power!"
"These are all Immortal Artifacts!"
"Our Great King is incredible!"
...
Countless monkeys shouted with excitement, their cries echoing throughout every part of Huaguo Mountain.
