Chapter 142 All Forces Are Moving Together, And The Northern Border Has Once Again Become A Target O
Great Qin.
Chang'an City.
Streets and alleys, teahouses and taverns, almost everyone is discussing this astonishing phenomenon.
"Did you just hear? A Grotto-Heaven paradise suddenly appeared in the northern region!"
"Grotto-Heaven paradise? I remember my father saying that the northern region had long been turned into ruins by the Emperor. How could there be a Grotto-Heaven paradise?"
"Who knows. It is said that the Grotto-Heaven paradise that appeared there is thousands of zhang high, with auspicious qi rising and radiant light reaching the sky, just like a celestial Grotto-Heaven."
"Tsk tsk, is it true? Does that mean our Great Qin will also have a celestial Cave Mansion appearing?"
"Not just a celestial Cave Mansion, it's like a miracle descending!"
"That's right, I also heard that celestial music has already been heard in the northern region, with celestial mist pervading the area, like a fairyland."
"Yes, the celestial light from that Grotto-Heaven paradise is so dazzling, it practically illuminates half of the sky."
"I also heard that the celestial Cave Mansion is extraordinary, possibly containing earth-shattering opportunities!"
"Haha, this is truly a blessing for our Great Qin!"
"That's right, with a celestial Cave Mansion, our Great Qin can cultivate more powerful individuals and even give birth to Immortal Grade techniques and immortal weapons!"
...
Countless people are inexplicably excited, discussing the sudden appearance of the celestial Cave Mansion.
Some even propose to explore the Cave Mansion and obtain the opportunities inside.
"Hmph, foolish!"
In a luxurious restaurant in the eastern market of Chang'an City, a group of people gather together, listening to the bustling discussions around them, and sneering.
"If it really is a celestial Cave Mansion, it would not be a blessing but a disaster for Great Qin!"
A slightly older, tall and imposing man slowly speaks up.
As soon as these words are spoken, it feels like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone's heads.
Instantly, silence falls upon the restaurant.
"What do you mean by that?"
After a long time, someone finally hesitates and asks.
"Think about it, if it really is a celestial Cave Mansion, it will definitely attract the covetousness of other powerful forces. At that time, what does Great Qin have to resist with?"
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, the imposing man scans the room and asks calmly.
As soon as these words are spoken, everyone is stunned.
Indeed, if there really is a Grotto-Heaven paradise, it will inevitably attract the attention of other forces.
Especially after Great Qin has just experienced a fierce battle, its reserves have already been depleted to some extent.
Engaging in another war with other forces would be extremely dangerous.
And once those forces learn that Great Qin possesses a celestial Cave Mansion, they will likely swarm in immediately!
By then, how can Great Qin withstand the invasion of those top sects?
As this question arises, everyone feels a chill down their spines.
Although Great Qin is strong, it is only barely dominating the Heavenly River Domain. If it competes with the overlords of other domains for the celestial Cave Mansion, it will definitely suffer huge losses.
But if they don't compete, allowing those forces to enter the territory of Great Qin, it would also be a great trouble and a humiliation to the country's prestige.
This is a dilemma!
With this thought, everyone can't help but feel a sense of oppression.
"But... that place is still our Great Qin's territory..."
A young nobleman hesitates to speak.
"Great Qin's territory?"
The valiant man sneered, seemingly smiling as he said, "The Northern Territory does indeed belong to Great Qin. However, that is the Cave Mansion of the Immortals, containing unimaginable opportunities. If any power were to obtain it, it would be enough to make a sect rise again, even surpassing its peak!"
"Do you think they will give up?" he asked.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
The Cave Mansion of the Immortals, a chance that even Saints coveted. Who wouldn't be tempted by it?
Especially those sect-level powers, even the great teachings and inheritances may not be without the desire to fight for it!
After a long silence, someone sighed and said, "What should we do? Are we just going to let other powers covet Great Qin?"
"We can only give up, otherwise Great Qin will be in danger."
"In fact, we don't have to give up. As long as Your Majesty is willing to share with other powers, then Great Qin will not be besieged by other forces."
"Yes, what Fellow Daoist said is true."
"That's right!"
This statement resonated with countless cultivators.
As long as Your Majesty was willing to share the Grotto-Heaven blessed land in the Northern Territory, then Great Qin could turn danger into safety.
After all, the value of the Grotto-Heaven blessed land was immense!
Even first-class sects, and even Sacred Land-level existences, would find it difficult to refuse such temptation!
This was a crisis!
A crisis greater than the alliance of Heavenly Essence, Ash Moon, and the Northern Territory attacking Chang'an!
"Sigh..."
The valiant man sighed.
He did not answer immediately, but turned his head to look outside the restaurant, towards the imperial palace.
"What to do specifically depends on how Your Majesty decides..."
With these words, the entire restaurant fell completely silent.
"I hope Your Majesty can make a wise choice..."
Someone muttered.
"Based on Your Majesty's character... do you think he will choose to go to war directly with those powers?"
Suddenly, someone said.
As soon as these words were spoken, the previously calm atmosphere stagnated, and countless people's faces showed a solemn expression.
"Go to war?! Are you crazy? Each of those major powers has deep foundations and endless strong individuals. They can't be defeated so easily!"
Someone immediately shook their head and refuted.
"Your Majesty has a strong character and acts recklessly. Perhaps he really dares to do so!"
Someone's expression turned gloomy as they shook their head and smiled bitterly.
"Ah, how can we understand Your Majesty's thoughts?"
"Yes, this incident came too quickly, catching Great Qin off guard. It's difficult to handle for a while."
"Sigh, I hope Your Majesty doesn't make a foolish move..."
For a while, the atmosphere in the restaurant was gloomy, filled with a sense of desolation.
...
Chang'an City.
In the Gold Imperial Hall, Qin Mu sat on the dragon throne, his gaze overlooking the courtiers.
The courtiers knelt down, showing utmost respect.
Qin Mu's gaze flickered as he asked calmly, "How do you all view the Cave Mansion of the Immortals in the Northern Territory?"
