Seeking the Way of Immortality

In the Wutian Empire, all the civil and military officials have extraordinary cultivation.

"Your Majesty, do I have a different opinion?" The leader on the right glanced at Dongfang Wenjin and said with a serious expression.

"Oh, Lord Shen, please feel free to speak."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The man, with a general's belly, said: "The enemy and our forces are equal in size. The reason why we are defeated is because we were caught off guard."

"General Shen is wrong. The war should be started sooner rather than later. It is better for everyone to end it as soon as possible." A minister said dissatisfiedly.

"Haha, Lord Wang, don't be in a hurry, just listen to what I have to say." Silent said with a smile.

Without waiting for everyone to speak again, Silent spoke again: "The four forces of Feng, Huang, Ji, and Beihai Forest are all no less powerful than our Wutian Empire. If we increase our troops, the enemy will certainly increase their troops. At that time, the situation will be in a dilemma, and we will be in a dilemma."

"Oh, dilemma, why did Lord Shen say that?"

"Lord Yang, don't worry, listen to me." Silent talked freely, and had a clear grasp of the situation of all parties.

"Once the enemy increases its troops, because it is a long-distance cross-regional battle, it will definitely not easily withdraw from the battlefield. At that time, do you think we should fight or not?"

"If we fight, then the overall combat effectiveness of the enemies in all four directions is much stronger than ours, and the chances of winning are very high."

"If we retreat, our Wutian Empire will inevitably suffer heavy losses."

"Lord Shen, but as far as I know, Feng, Huang, and Ji have all increased their troops!" A minister said with a frown.

"Yes, I have heard about this matter." Dongfang Wenjin stroked his beard and said.

Emperor Wu Qing nodded, obviously he had known about this for a long time.

Silent nodded with a smile: "Yes, they have already increased their troops."

"Oh, since Lord Shen knew, why did he say so?" Wu Qingdi asked with a smile.

Silent exhaled and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being frank, the increase in troops is only substantial for the Huang family, and the Feng family agreed, and the increase in troops can be ignored; the Ji family only sent an elder of considerable weight this time. As for the North Sea Forest, you should know that they have been going all out from the beginning, and there has been no sign of increasing troops so far."

"Ministry of War, is that so?" Wu Qingdi asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty, that's right."

"Do you know the leader of the Feng, Huang, and Ji families' increase in troops this time?" Dongfang Wenjin asked. Only by knowing the leader of this increase in troops can the determination of the three families be clear.

The elder born in the Ji family may be just an ordinary elder, or an elder with important responsibilities, or even a supreme elder. The meaning and determination represented by each of them are very different.

"I don't know. The news we have received only knows that the three families have increased their troops. As for who is the leader, our people have not found out." The Minister of War Huo Wuji shook his head and replied.

Emperor Wu Qing showed displeasure and said, "This matter must be thoroughly investigated at all costs. We must find out who the leaders of the three families are. This is related to the safety of the Wutian Empire. The Minister of War Huo Wuji is fully responsible, and the Minister of Justice Bi Shiming will supervise it."

"Yes, I will obey the order." Huo Wuji accepted the order with an ugly face.

"The old minister will obey the order." The Minister of Justice Bi Shiming stepped forward and respectfully accepted the order.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say." A person behind Silent said.

"Oh, Lord Gu, what's the matter?" Emperor Wu Qing asked in surprise.

Gu Daming said with embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the battle in front is getting more intense, and the supplies in the rear are running out."

"Well, Lord Gu, the battle has just started, how could there be a shortage of supplies?" Silently asked dissatisfiedly.

"Oh! My Lord Shen! You don't know how expensive it is to run a household!" Gu Daming howled with a crying face, not caring about the eyes of the crowd at all.

"Okay! You are old, but you are still like this." Dongfang Wenjin scolded with a smile.

"Hehe, I'm used to it."

Then Gu Daming said with a serious look: "So far, the war has been going on for about half a year. The battlefields on all sides are short of spiritual energy. The soldiers' cultivation needs are almost entirely maintained by elixirs. The elixirs for restoring spiritual energy and healing injuries have been in urgent need a few days ago. Although the rear has stepped up the refining, the refining speed has not kept up with the consumption speed."

"Nonsense, there are only a few soldiers in the front, and the Wutian Empire has a vast territory and a large population. How could it be impossible to keep up with the consumption?" An old man scolded loudly.

"Lord Liu, the empire only has eight alchemy pavilions to supply soldiers. How can it keep up with the joint consumption of the four legions?" Gu Daming responded unhappily.

"What about the stored elixirs?" someone asked.

"Humph, those elixirs are the strategic reserves of the Wutian Empire. Who dares to call them unless it is a critical moment of life and death!" Gu Daming replied unceremoniously.

"Oh, I understand. You mean that the elixirs consumed by the soldiers in the front are only the elixirs refined by the current alchemy pavilions, and no spare elixirs and other sect forces are called." Silent said with a smile.

"Lord Shen still understands." Gu Daming said with a smile.

"What you said is true. Only eight alchemy pavilions can't supply the simultaneous consumption of the four legions." Dongfang Wenjin nodded and said.

"Well, now that the enemies on all sides are eyeing us covetously, and the people in the empire are panicking, it's time to get serious!" Wu Qingdi stood up suddenly and said in a stern tone.

"Your Majesty." Everyone shouted.

"Dongfang Wenjin."

"I am here."

"From now on, you will be in charge of the Military Affairs Office, announce the war to the world, and start conscription within the empire. All the major sects, forces, and families will provide elixirs for the empire, and you will be responsible for all the supplies."

"Yes, I will obey your order."

"Everyone, this war is a key battle for the empire. Whether it succeeds or not, we still need to work together!" Emperor Wu Qing said in a gentle tone.

Everyone did not speak, and all looked at Emperor Wu Qing.

"From now on, please cooperate with Prime Minister Dongfang to promote the prestige of our empire!" Emperor Wu Qing looked dignified, and his voice spread throughout the hall.

"Work together to promote the prestige of our empire!" Everyone echoed in unison, and the sound shook the sky.

Outside the imperial palace, the clouds were jubilant, like dragons and tigers!

The changing fortunes of a country are actually closely related to Emperor Wu Qing in the imperial palace. The main reason why Emperor Wu Qing has the combat power above the level of the God of Incarnation is because of the blessing of the empire's fortune. The mood of Emperor Wu Qing will directly affect the changes in the Wu Tian Empire. Similarly, the changes in the Wu Tian Empire will also affect Emperor Wu Qing.

The two complement each other and are closely related!
