In the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng sat on a cushion with a black aura hovering above his right palm.
This black aura was the power Xiao Buku had grasped. Relying on this black gas, Xiao Buku had grown to the point where he could compete with Ji Wujun in a short period of time.
The rules of heaven and earth?
Previously, Jiang Changsheng could not see through this power. Now that he had attained the tenth level of the Dao Technique, he still could not see through this power.
Even though the world of martial arts was created by a Heavenly Origin Extreme Martial Artist, after so many years, the world had exceeded the control of that Heavenly Origin Extreme Martial Artist. Otherwise, the other party would not have waited for him to leave and would have just killed their way in.
As he could not descend into the martial arts world, that Heavenly Origin Extreme Martial Artist could only contact some races and help him monitor the world. The Tiansu Race was one of them. Therefore, it was imperative to eliminate the Tiansu Race. Jiang Changsheng had already calculated that the Tiansu Race was not as powerful as the Qiangliang Race. After the dynasty was established, the end of the Tiansu Race would come very soon.
In addition, Jiang Changsheng suspected that the Heavenly Origin Extreme
Martial Artist knew something about this black aura. That was why the Tiansu Race found Xiao Buku. However, from Xiao Buku’s memories, he did not know the motive of the Tiansu Race, let alone the existence of that Heavenly Origin Extreme Martial Artist.
After watching for a while, Jiang Changsheng suppressed the black aura in the Purple Crystal Gourd.
Since he could not see through it, he would keep it. Sooner or later, he would understand it.
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and cultivated. Even though he had broken through, he still had to cultivate when he had the time. After all, there were still people watching him from outside the sky.
He had tried to calculate the strongest force that the Heaven Origin Extreme Martial Artist could invite, but unfortunately, it was not within the detection range of the system.
The 5th year of the Kaisheng Era had passed, and a new year had arrived.
The day of the enthronement ceremony!
The interior and exterior of Jingcheng were bustling with activity. The rulers of the many provinces and vassal countries had all arrived, and many aristocratic families had begun to relocate to the Si Province. As a result, the prices of land and houses in the cities in the Si Province had skyrocketed.
The palace in Jingcheng had been renovated and had become more imposing than before. The majestic scenery of the palace could be seen in every corner of the city, just like a mountain in the city.
Early in the morning, countless officials, generals, and influential officials had gathered in front of the palace gates. The nearby streets were also filled with people.
The God of Thieves stood in front of the gates and chatted with some vassal kings while the White-robed Guards were scattered around the palace.
After the Emperor was controlled as a puppet, the God of Thieves retired with the White-robed Guards. Even though they had suffered heavy losses in this chaotic world, the White-robed Guards were still here. Chen Li found him and asked him to gather the White-robed Guards again to preside over the order in Jingcheng again.
Most of the vassal kings were very happy. If the Dao Ancestor was the father of Taizong, didn’t that mean he was also their ancestor?
It had to be known that almost all of Taizong’s brothers were dead. Right now, the Jiang Family was of Taizong’s lineage. It was precisely because of this that they unconditionally supported the Dao Ancestor and even praised him to the sky, while belittling Emperor Jingvven and the Mahayana Dragon Tower.
Boom—
The gates of the palace opened and a dignified voice sounded. “Officials of
Heavenly Jing enter the palace!”
Venerable Bai’s voice. With his strength in the Nine Grotto-Heaven realm, it made his voice filled with oppression, shocking the dukes, vassal kings, and aristocrats waiting. The experts under them were even more shocked.
How many experts did the Dao Ancestor have under him?
The vassal kings, dukes, provincial ministers, and so on entered the palace one after another. All of their subordinates were outside the palace and were not allowed to enter. Even so, there was still a surging crowd.
After a while.
They came to a vast plaza. They saw a thousand-foot-tall stone tablet with nothing on it. It flickered with a faint light under the sunlight, just like a divine tablet.
In front of the thousand-foot-tall stone tablet, Chen Li, Yang Che, and Venerable Bai stood side by side. All of them wore the garment of prime ministers, looking imposing and dignified.
Behind them, Jiang Xuanzhen, who was wearing the Emperor’s dragon robe and crown, stood in front of the thousand-foot-tall stone tablet with his eyes closed.
“The vassal kings will stand behind the Emperor while the officials will wait in front of us.
As soon as Chen Li spoke, the vassal kings and dukes immediately followed suit.
Hundreds of vassal kings stood behind Jiang Xuanzhen according to their seniority. Many of them had already given up their positions, but they were still invited due to their high prestige.
The vassal kings looked expectant and excited.
As far as the eye could see, the entire plaza was bordered by a thousand-foot-tall stone tablet. The area near the palace was empty, and the plaza in front of the stone tablet was filled with people.
The end of the chaotic Great Jing was naturally a good thing for the Jiang Family!
The King of the Northern Frontier had a complicated expression on his face. King Han, Jiang Luo, was all smiles while King Jin, Jiang Ye, looked around.
At that moment, a group of people flew over from Longqi Mountain. They were Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, and the others. Even Bai Qi, Tai Wa, and Tai Xi had come.
The arrival of the two Nagas caused a commotion. The vassal kings and dukes were all whispering to each other. They all thought of the portraits in the underground imperial palace and guessed that Tai Wa and Tai Xi were from the Great Wilderness’ Imperial Race.
They were not frightened. Instead, they admired the Dao Ancestor even more.
Mu Lingluo landed by Mu Xuangang’s side, and there were several Mu Family members behind him. Mu Xuangang asked in a low voice, “Is it true?” Mu Lingluo nodded slightly, her eyes full of smiles.
When Mu Xuangang saw this, an excited smile appeared on his face.
Time continued to pass.
Venerable Bai looked at the astronomical phenomenon and suddenly said, “The auspicious time has come. Kneel and welcome the Dao Ancestor!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the three prime ministers knelt down first.
The Emperor, Jiang Xuanzhen, also knelt down. All the vassal kings, dukes, and nobles knelt down like a wave. It was a spectacular sight.
A golden light swept out from the depths of the palace and swept across the entire Jingcheng and the entire Si Province. It continued to spread and sweep across the entire Great Jing.
The citizens looked up and were shocked to see the scenes in the palace in the sky. The Emperor, vassal kings, dukes, and so on knelt before the thousand-foot-tall stone tablet. The scene was spectacular, and the citizens everywhere were excited.
“What is this? A mirage?”
“No, it’s the scene in the palace. Today is the Dao Ancestor’s ascension ceremony!”
“It must be the Dao Ancestor’s mystical ability. It’s amazing that it could be shown to us in the Northern Region!”
“Hahaha, I was just worrying about not being able to attend the coronation.” “This is what it means to celebrate with the people!”
“If this is a martial arts technique, how great must one’s strength be to cover the entire Great Jing?”
More and more commoners and martial artists ran out of their houses and looked up at the sky. Be it in the city or deep in the mountains, as long as they could see the sky, they could see the coronation ceremony. Moreover, everyone’s vision was very clear, as if they were there. This feeling was shocking.
Under the gaze of everyone in the world, a dragon’s roar and hiss resounded between heaven and earth. White Dragon and Golden Crow descended from the sky. They grew to their largest size and they surrounded each other as they descended. They were like dragons and phoenixes, making everyone in Great Jing excited. All the believers of the Dao Ancestor immediately knelt down and worshiped the sky, attracting the other citizens who were not believers to kneel as well.
A golden light descended and was surrounded by White Dragon and Golden Crow. A figure descended from the golden light. It was Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng landed on the thousand-foot-tall stone tablet and the golden light dissipated. His face was still covered by the Ultimate Yang Divine Light, displaying the aura of an immortal god.
Great Jing was shocked!
The citizens everywhere were shouting the name of the Dao Ancestor!
The chaos in Great Jing lasted for dozens of years. After the Dao Ancestor was invited out by the Emperor, he allowed Great Jing to be at peace in a short year. This made the citizens respect him to the extreme, and his incense points skyrocketed like never before.
The people of Great Jing had reached an unprecedented unity!
Even though they had yet to see the true appearance of the Dao Ancestor, they were still crazy about him. That was because he was mysterious enough to fill them with expectations and imagination.
Those foreign beings lurking in Great Jing also looked at the sky in a daze, as if mortals were looking at a god.
The Emperor, Jiang Xuanzhen, raised his head and shouted, “This descendant is incompetent, causing chaos and suffering for the people. Ancestor, please ascend the throne and bring light to everyone”
“Ancestor, please ascend the throne!”
All the vassal kings shouted in unison. Their voices gathered together like a rainbow, shocking the hearts of everyone.
So the rumors were true!
The Dao Ancestor was the father of Taizong!
The dukes and aristocrats looked at Jiang Changsheng in awe and admiration. Before this, many people were unconvinced, but the situation was pressing so they had no choice. Now that they had personally witnessed the elegance of the Dao Ancestor, they were sincerely convinced.
“My name in this life is Jiang Changsheng, and I am devoted to the Dao. I have given up my status as a member of the imperial family and stopped caring about worldly affairs. I want to experience the last life of the reincarnation tribulation. However, the world has suffered for a long time. Therefore, I am willing to pave a path for all living beings to advance to the Immortal God Realm and the Heavenly Court.”
“From now on, the name of Great Jing will be changed to Heavenly Jing. The spirit of Heavenly Jing, from the civil and military officials to the common people, can ascend to become an immortal and stay in the Heavenly Court. It is the responsibility of heaven and earth!”
Jiang Changsheng stood proudly on the thousand-foot-tall stone tablet as he spoke. His indifferent voice echoed in every corner of Skyview Land.
He raised his right hand and clenched it towards the sky. “The Immortal Era has begun. Luck of Heavenly Jing, rise!”
Boom!
A powerful aura exploded from his body and his robes fluttered. He quickly covered the entire Skyview Land with his magic power and his luck surged towards the land along with his magic power!
In an instant, the entire Skyview Land was drenched in a golden rain. All the humans and beasts touched by the golden rain felt a strange force surging in their bodies!
Luck!
The people of Great Jing were very familiar with luck. The luck that had disappeared for several months had finally reappeared, and it made them feel more comfortable than before!
Venerable Bai was shocked when he sensed his luck.
“What kind of luck is this…
He was shocked. No wonder the Dao Ancestor did not need him to gather luck. This luck was stronger than the previous one.
“What’s that?!”
A duke cried out in surprise. Everyone looked up and saw a huge golden door appearing above the sea of clouds. Three words were carved on the plaque. South-Heaven Gate!
It was created by Jiang Changsheng using the Great Art of Creation. The South-Heaven Gate and Heavenly Jing’s luck fused together and a divine figure stood in front of the South-Heaven Gate. It was Saint Guan, Guan Tongyou!
When Guan Tongyou learned that the Dao Ancestor had asked him to guard the South-Heaven Gate, he immediately agreed. After understanding what the South-Heaven Gate was, he was even more excited.
As expected, the ascension ceremony of the Dao Ancestor was different!
It had brought unprecedented things to the world!
“This is the South-Heaven Gate of the Heavenly Court. Anyone who becomes an immortal in the future can enter the South-Heaven Gate and the Heavenly Court!”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded again as he introduced the South-Heaven Gate to the public.
The citizens raised their heads and engraved the magnificent scene of the South-Heaven Gate in their minds. They would never forget it.
“To train in martial arts for the dynasty, for the good of the world, everyone can become an immortal!”
“From now on, Great Jing will be promoted from a mortal dynasty to a celestial dynasty. I am the first Emperor of Heavenly Jing, and I am also the Human Emperor!”
As soon as Jiang Changsheng finished speaking, White Dragon roared and Golden Crow circled around him. This scene caused everyone in the world to go crazy.
At this point, the image of the emperor changed in the hearts of the people of Heavenly Jing.. From a human to a god, imperial power was heavenly power and divine power!
