“That’s right. Many people saw it. It can’t be faked. It’s said that the sea he was holding covered the sky and the sun. It was as big as a continent. Right now, the world calls the Dao Ancestor an immortal…
The masked man said in a deep voice filled with admiration.
The white-robed man turned around and looked at him with a complicated expression. “Such a person was born in the human race?”
The masked man understood what he meant and said, “He might not be the
Martial Emperor because he has no ambition. He is only guarding a prosperous dynasty, not the Emperor. He only stays in the Daoist temple all day cultivating and is indifferent to fame and fortune.”
The white-robed man said, “Send someone to investigate him again. I want to know everything about him.”
“Yes!”
The masked man answered and disappeared.
The white-robed man turned around and looked at the horizon. His eyes drifted away as he muttered to himself, “Your Majesty, have you calculated the arrival of an immortal?”
On the day of the new spring, Jiang Che brought his son, Jiang Qing, to celebrate the New Year. Jiang Qing had inherited Emperor Shuntian’s Human King inheritance. He was powerful, but he had a lazy personality. He did not train on ordinary days and instead liked to enjoy himself. He was the largest profligate son in the capital.
In the past, he was not like this. After obtaining the Human King’s inheritance, his mentality had swelled.
Even though he acted very well in front of Jiang Changsheng, he was easily seen through by him.
After a lively night, Jiang Che asked Jiang Changsheng, “Dao Ancestor, do you think you can teach that kid martial arts?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “He is already powerful enough. With his personality, he will not imitate Jing Tianzong and personally go to the frontlines. Martial arts are useless to him.”
Even though Jiang Che had yet to appoint Jiang Qing as the crown prince, everyone knew that he favored him because the crown prince had yet to be named.
In the Great Jing, the eldest prince and the crown prince were two different positions. The eldest prince could only be the eldest son of the first wife, but the eldest prince might not be the crown prince.
Jiang Che also seemed to want his sons to fight for the position because he had yet to see a prince that filled him with expectations. Even Jiang Qing was lacking.
Hearing Jiang Changsheng’s words, Jiang Che thought for a moment and shook his head with a bitter smile.
That was indeed the case.
He was not too worried. Ever since he ascended the throne, he had strengthened the power of the prime ministers of the three major provinces. In the future, even if there was an emperor without ambition, the prime ministers could force him to fight. Of course, this was a double-edged sword, but he was betting that the prime ministers of the three major provinces would not dare to seize power because the Dao Ancestor was here.
The Dao Ancestor naturally acquiesced to them pushing the Emperor for the betterment of the dynasty. If they were to force him to do something bad, they would be courting death.
Jiang Che had already acknowledged Jiang Changsheng as an immortal, so it was not a problem for him to protect Great Jing for hundreds of years.
Ye Xun teased, “That kid has a lot of tricks up his sleeves, but at least he can observe people’s expressions. Not bad.”
The others had the same thoughts. In their opinion, it was impossible for Great Jing to have a wise ruler for generations, but it would be fine as long as there was not an incapable ruler. Now that Great Jing had become powerful, there were many things that only required the Emperor’s approval. There was no need for the Emperor to think carefully. There were many talented generals and good officials.
Jiang Changsheng was in a good mood as he listened to everyone laughing and talking about Great Jing’s future. He checked his incense points.
It had exceeded 800 million!
The growth rate also did not decrease. Instead, it was slowly increasing. At this rate, it would not slow down until it reached a billion incense points.
Every few days, he would use the incense calculation to detect the strongest experts in the known range and the strongest experts nearby to ensure his safety.
At present, the strongest known figure was still the expert from the former Sacred Dynasty with a net worth of 120 million gold coins.
Other than him, the strongest expert on the Dragon Vein Continent had reached two million incense points. That was the worth of a Four
Grotto-heaven realm expert, so it was obvious that an expert had come. However, as long as the other party did not cause trouble, he naturally could not kill them rudely.
The strongest expert in the nearby sea areas was worth 5 million gold coins.
Ever since the legend of him lifting a sea up spread, more and more experts had gathered in Great Jing. However, it had been many years since anyone dared to challenge the Dao Ancestor. The Hero’s Tomb had been moved to the
Martial Peak and was managed by Longqi Temple. Huang Chuan and Ling Xiao had also stepped into the Golden Body realm. With the two of them presiding over it, the threshold to enter the Hero’s Tomb was the Golden Body realm.
Yang Zhou and the Eighteen Constellations were still working hard to become stronger. It had been a long time since Jiang Changsheng specially gathered geniuses. In his opinion, there was no need. No matter how talented they were, they still needed to be nurtured. However, if there were too many people, it would instead affect the speed of their overall progress. Furthermore, Longqi Temple was still far away from trouble, so there was no need for so many geniuses.
Even without Jiang Changsheng’s screening, more and more civilian geniuses appeared under the establishment of the martial arts academies. The martial arts world of Great Jing became stronger year by year. There were constantly martial arts grand events in all the provinces. Martial arts were respected in the name of martial arts.
After a lively night, Longqi Mountain returned to silence.
A month later.
Jiang Changsheng shifted his attention to the Dao World.
After absorbing the blood of the Three-legged Golden Crow for several years, the little swallow was finally about to transform.
Within the blood egg, its physique had changed, and a powerful sense of oppression emanated from it. Compared to Tai Wa, Tai Xi, and White Dragon, it had a bloodthirsty and cruel aura.
At that moment, cracks had appeared on the surface of the blood egg. The Three-legged Golden Crow was about to hatch!
Jiang Changsheng sensed its aura. It was comparable to a True God. The little swallow also had demonic power. Coupled with so much nurturing, it was not surprising for it to possess the strength of a True God after its transformation.
Another half a day passed.
The blood egg shattered like glass and turned into thousands of bloody winds that swept in all directions, stirring up dust and fallen leaves. A Three-legged Golden Crow covered in flames flapped its wings and appeared.
Its body was similar to a crow with three legs, and its wings were extremely large. There were also impressively long feathers on its body, making it look as if it was wearing a multicolored robe. There were also two purplish-red feathers on its head, similar to a crown. It looked extremely handsome.
It released a penetrating cry that echoed between heaven and earth, as if it was announcing its arrival to the entire world.
Jiang Changsheng condensed his body. When the little swallow saw him, it immediately flew over excitedly.
Due to the fact that Jiang Changsheng’s blood essence was in its blood soul, he could sense that he had established a certain connection with the little swallow. He could control its life and death.
“Master, I succeeded. I’m so powerful. Thank you, Master. Have I become a Xuan Bird?”
The little swallow monster asked excitedly. It flapped its wings, sending sparks Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “No, you are the Golden Crow, a
Three-legged Golden Crow specifically. Give yourself a name.”
“A Golden Crow? That’s a good name. I’ll be called Golden Crow then. There should only be one Golden Crow in this world, right?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Changsheng responded. Soon after, he took out the Classic of Mountains and Seas, wanting to put Golden Crow into the Classic of Mountains and Seas. The entire process was very smooth.
“You can stay here and cultivate from now on.”
After Jiang Changsheng said that, he left. Golden Crow flapped its wings and disappeared into the horizon like a rocket.
Golden Crow began to enjoy its new physique and strength. Its aura soon attracted other living beings in the Dao World.
The first to arrive was tjhe Sky Crow.
The huge Sky Crow frightened Golden Crow so much that it hastily stopped. However, it was not afraid. This was its master’s territory.
The Sky Crow looked at Golden Crow with surprise.
Even though Golden Crow was insignificant in front of it, it sensed an aura that made it fearful.
Or even…
Bloodline suppression!
How was that possible?
The Sky Crow was frightened and could not believe its own senses.
“What’s your name?”
“Golden Crow.” “Golden Crow? What’s its relationship with my Sky Crow Clan?”
“I am your ancestor!”
Golden Crow could not help but curse. The believers of the Xuan Bird had all been persecuted by the Sky Crow Clan, and so had Golden Crow. Therefore, he was extremely unhappy with the Sky Crow Clan.
When the Sky Crow heard that, it was stunned for a moment before anger surged.
The next second, it heard a voice and immediately turned to leave, disappearing quickly.
Golden Crow was surprised and thought to itself, “Am I that powerful now?”
For a moment, its confidence began to increase.
It was a happy thing that the little swallow had transformed into a
Three-legged Golden Crow. Jiang Changsheng looked forward to its growth.
Standing on a True Dragon, with a Golden Crow on his right shoulder and a Sky Crow on his left shoulder, it was quite cool to think about it.
The corners of Jiang Changsheng’s mouth curled up. He was not immersed in his fantasies. Compared to the growth of Golden Crow, the most important thing now was to increase his strength. After all, he still had imaginary enemies.
Days passed.
The Dragon Vein Continent completely recovered its peace. The World Destruction Tree successfully supported the continent and the luck of all the dynasties seeped into the ground. It also began to use luck to temper its body. It realized that luck was easier to absorb than before, and it came to a realization.
The reason why it was easier to absorb was because it had contributed to this land. Even though the continent did not have intelligence, it had rules. The rules of the continent helped it become stronger.
After understanding this, the mentality of the World Destruction Tree began to change. It began to not hate humans so much. Instead, it now had a broader mentality.
It turned out that saving a continent could make it stronger.
No wonder there were so many auspicious beasts and they were very powerful.
The World Destruction Tree decided to transform into an auspicious beast. On this day.
Jiang Changsheng observed his old friends as he cultivated. His old friends were all doing well. The reincarnation of the Four Seas Sage, Zhang Long, had begun to change his fortune and was working hard to cultivate in a sect. Jiang Yu, Wang Chen, Eunuch Li, and Qing Ku were all doing well.
His gaze turned to Lin Haotian.
He would not have known if he had not seen him, but it was a little unexpected!
Lin Haotian was cultivating on an incomparably huge demonic corpse. If one were to take a closer look, they would notice traces of blood qi overflowing from the demonic body and entering his body.
Was this another Demon Saint?
Jiang Changsheng noticed that this demon beast was also connected together, identical to the Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint. Coupled with its physique, it was very likely one of the Seven Great Saints.
This kid…
Jiang Changsheng knew that Lin Haotian’s talent was extraordinary, but he did not expect him to be able to absorb the blood essence of a powerful Demon Saint.
Previously, when Lin Haotian obtained the Martial Emperor’s inheritance, he thought that Lin Haotian might become a Martial Emperor. From the looks of it, this fellow should not be the next Martial Emperor, but an anomaly outside of the human race and the demon race. He would break the pattern of the two races.
At this rate, Lin Haotian would reach the Universe realm in a few years and his breakthrough speed could be said to be unimaginably fast. However, Jiang
Changsheng, who had personally witnessed his growth trajectory, felt that it was reasonable.
This fellow’s bloodline was too powerful and the opportunities he had were terrifying!
He was simply the protagonist of the show.
Jiang Changsheng could not help but look at Mu Lingluo. Mu Lingluo was born with 500,000 incense points, and she was indeed an extraordinary genius in this life. However, compared to Lin Haotian, the gap began to appear.
In the past, Mu Lingluo could suppress Lin Haotian, which meant that her talent was not bad. It was just that her future opportunities were not good.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly had a bold idea..
