Chapter 1882 I broke through!

Now that Zhou Keer has absorbed the spirit of sacrifice, her medical skills have also been greatly improved.

Although she is still some distance away from truly entering the realm of Ipsilon, her medical skills are completely different from before.

Li Changgong only suffered external injuries, and regenerating a severed limb was not a difficult task, so the operation was completed quickly.

Zhang Yi was standing nearby and suddenly received a call request from Xiao Lie.

Zhang Yi raised his head and glanced at Li Changgong. Li Changgong seemed to sense something and looked at Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi did not avoid him and answered the call directly.

"Hello, Xiao Lie. Long time no see!"

"Mr. Chaos, long time no see. Excuse me, is Li Changgong at your place?"

Zhang Yi glanced at Li Changgong and said calmly, "Yes, it's here with me!"

Xiao Lie asked, "Can I ask you for a favor? Please don't interfere in the affairs of our Northwest Region? A regional commander who is willing to befriend you is better than a commander who is always plotting against you, right?"

Zhang Yi raised his lips and said, "I have never been interested in interfering in other people's affairs. As long as this matter does not affect me, you can do whatever you want."

Li Changgong had a complicated expression on his face. He was now very eager to get help from other regions.

Especially Zhang Yi’s help.

But on what grounds did he ask for help?

His relationship with Zhang Yi is not good.

Xiao Lie was obviously relieved: "Thank you very much! If you need any help from us in the future, please let us know!"

"Ah."

Zhang Yi simply replied with two sentences and ended the communication.

Zhou Keer came over and said to Zhang Yi, "His injuries have been healed. He will be completely healed after a period of rest. But...his biggest injury seems to be here."

She pointed to her chest.

Zhang Yi understood what she meant.

A great man who is high above everyone else has been in a position that ordinary people can hardly reach in their lifetime since birth.

Suddenly, power was seized and almost everything was lost.

It's definitely not a pleasant feeling.

But Zhang Yi couldn't do anything about it.

He walked over and said to Li Changgong: "You can rest here until your injuries are healed. Then you have to leave Tianhai City!"

"I am a neutral party and will not intervene in the struggle between any forces. Therefore, I can't help you with anything else. You can go to people from other regions for help."

It’s not that Li Changgong didn’t try, but the attitudes of people from other regions towards this matter were all talk and no action. Although they spoke righteous words, they didn’t actually mention borrowing troops.

After all, at this time, the external crisis has not been resolved. Who is willing to risk their own troops and high-level aliens to fight a big region to the death?

Meng Yuanjun said to his subordinates very bluntly: "As the supreme commander of a large region, his power was taken away so easily. This kind of thing can only show that Li Changgong has long been unpopular!"

Li Changgong rested in Tianhai City for three full days. During this period, he actively contacted various parties, including senior officials from various regions and his former subordinates in the Northwest Region.

However, the major regions kept shirking their responsibilities, and those old subordinates had already been won over by Xiao Lie and easily defected.

It was not until this time that Li Changgong realized one thing: his prestige in the Northwest Region was not as high as he had imagined.

The only good news was that Xiao Lie listened to him and did not purge his cronies after the war, but simply stripped them of their powers and imprisoned them.

Li Changgong was at a loss.

Now he is alone, and returning to the Northwest Region has become a luxury.

Zhang Yi was quite considerate and prepared some supplies for him.

"It's time for you to leave."

They were also very rude when they chased him away.

After all, Tianhai City is under reconstruction, and we don’t want outsiders snooping around here.

Li Changgong nodded, "Hun Dun, thank you for helping me when I was in trouble."

He lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

"In the past, I always thought that I was born superior to others because I was a descendant of a general. To be honest, I am quite jealous of you, because I think that an ordinary person, who was born as a warehouse manager, can have a higher fame and strength than me. I really can't stand it!"

He spread his hands, "But now, I am nothing."

Zhang Yi crossed his arms and said calmly, "Leaving the Northwest Region may not be a bad thing for you. At least, you are still a Black Chariot-level alien. No matter where you go, you can live well."

"The glory of the past, the protection of your ancestors, and the authority as the commander of the Northwest Region are not only your blessings, but also your burdens."

After hearing these words, Li Changgong felt as if he had been enlightened.

He raised his head and looked at Zhang Yi blankly.

In an instant, he understood!

He had everything in the past, but he didn't get it by himself.

He had too much, but his foundation was too shallow and his character was too bad, which resulted in him being unable to grasp everything he had.

He is an extremely talented person and should achieve great things in this world.

It was because he was greedy for power and spent all day thinking about how to protect the position of the supreme commander of the Northwest Region, leaving him no time to improve himself.

Li Changgong took a deep breath, "Chaos, thank you! I understand!"

His eyes brightened, and the previous confusion was swept away.

He already knew what he was going to do next.

"Next time we meet, I won't be like this anymore!"

Li Changgong stared at Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi clearly felt his change.

He raised his right fist to Zhang Yi and said with a focused expression: "We haven't fought for a long time. Next time we meet, I will catch up with you! Then, I hope you can give me another chance to challenge you!"

Zhang Yi rubbed his temples, smiled bitterly and said, "Please forgive me! Why does everyone want to challenge me now?"

It’s true that people are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat!

If you become too famous, many people will want to defeat you and gain fame and power.

Li Changgong smiled slightly and said again: "Thank you!"

Then he turned around and boarded the fighter plane with the supplies Zhang Yi had prepared for him.

Next, he is going to go for training!

If Xiao Lie could climb up from the bottom of the military officer hierarchy, then Li Changgong, as a descendant of a military family, could do the same.

When the time comes, when he has assembled a strong team, he will return to Cheng'an City and settle accounts with Xiao Lie!

The fighter plane roared away, and Zhang Yi watched him leave with a faint smile.

"I just hope that when you come back, you won't be the stubborn person you used to be!"

As a result, not long after Zhang Yi sent Li Changgong away, he saw the message sent by Luo Zhuo on the high-level communication channel of Huaxu State.

A mysterious underground race invaded the southwest region, but has been pacified by the brothers Luo Zhuo and Jueguo.

This is a new underground civilization that has never been seen before, but its form is similar to the creatures of Nash Kingdom and Wuluan Empire.

Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows. He certainly understood what this meant.

When a civilization ends, some of its survivors will escape to places beyond the surface.

But a civilization must have more than one group of survivors.

However, the fact that the brothers Luo Zhuo and Jueguo defeated the two underground creatures so easily made Zhang Yi understand that they must have listened to his words and established a new Tantric Buddhism.

Now both of them are the leaders of the New Tantric Buddhism, one in the open and the other in secret, in charge of religion and administrative affairs of the Southwest region respectively.

Thinking of what Cardinal Olib of the Junzheng Church had said to him a while ago, Zhang Yi made a video call to Luo Zhuo.

Zhang Yi has done a great favor to the Southwest Region, so Luo Zhuo treats Zhang Yi with great respect.

"Mr. Zhang! It's been a long time since we last met. I heard that you returned from Fremons after a great battle. I wonder if you are in good health?"

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "It's okay. I won't die. I've gained something. By the way, I just heard that the Southwest Region was attacked again. What happened? Tell me in detail!"

Luo Zhuo told the whole story without hiding anything.

"Two underground creatures, one with the strength of the Black Chariot, and the other with the strength of the White Bishop. How could they both be killed by you?"

Zhang Yi is not very curious about underground creatures.

The Yihen tribe explained everything clearly. Those guys were humans in the past, and they were a race trying to survive in the cracks.

What curious him was that Luo Zhuo and the other two were improving so fast!

Luo Zhuo said frankly: "It's the power of faith!"

Zhang Yi blinked his eyes. "But I remember that when we were in the underground demon kingdom, Jue Guo couldn't reach this level even with his power of faith. What's going on?"

Luo Zhuo said: "Indeed, my current strength is only 18000 points. But after being blessed by the power of faith, I can leap to 30000 points of bishop-level strength!"

"If my brother and I merge together, we can reach a level of around 35000 points."

Zhang Yi realized that this was probably the same situation as Marshal Sean of Kaje Country, so he asked in detail.

Luo Zhuo told Zhang Yi everything he knew.

"In this world, our Tantric Buddhism is not the only one that possesses the power of faith. For example, the Bharatanatyam sect in Bharata next door, Shintoism in Japan, Buddhism in Southeast Asia, and the Junzheng sect. They can probably all use this ability."

Zhang Yi asked in confusion: "So, there are tens of thousands of people in Tianhai City, and they are all under my protection. Why can't I feel this power?"

Luo Zhuo smiled.

"Mr. Zhang, faith and belief are not the same thing."

"The latter is out of one's own needs, while the former comes from the heart."

He pointed to his heart.

"Only the most devout believers can have their prayers effective."

Hearing this, Zhang Yi sighed and said, "No wonder there are so many monks and so many people burning incense and worshipping Buddha, but I have never seen a few monks become high-level extraordinary people."

"Nowadays, monks use their family property to do business, only knowing how to make money. They drink alcohol and eat meat all the time and have no faith at all."

"Most of those who donate money for incense offerings have committed too many crimes and feel uneasy. They think that they can really become Buddhas by putting down their butcher knives, and make amends for themselves. In fact, how can they really do good deeds and accumulate virtues?"

Tantric Buddhism has been passed down for thousands of years, and the degree of religious belief of the believers here has reached a level that others cannot understand.

They were even willing to engage in self-mutilation in order to worship the Buddha.

The Southwestern region is close to Bharatanatyam, and many of the teachings of Tantra are the same as those of the Bharatanatyam sect.

The monks over there practice asceticism without regard for their lives.

The beliefs of such people are extremely terrifying, and the power they bring together is even stronger.

Then...what about the Junzheng Sect?

Zhang Yi couldn't help feeling a little creepy when he thought about that ancient religion that had existed for who knows how long.

You know, in those developed Western countries, many heads of state have to swear an oath in front of the Holy Scripture when they take office.

Their faith has reached their bones.
