“So what if it’s true or false? You can’t hide from what will come. After knowing the crisis in advance, what you need to do is to work harder in your training.”
Jiang Changsheng answered with a smile. He had never been in Jiang Tianming’s dream. With the arrival of the Outerworld Devil River, it was impossible for him not to be here. Even if he were to escape, he would bring Heavenly Jing with him. This meant that he was not in Jiang Tianming’s foreseeable future.
Without him, the future would be illusory, but fate would come eventually.
When Jiang Tianming heard that, he felt that it made sense and nodded.
“You’re right. As long as I’m strong enough, I won’t be afraid of any danger.”
“But if you dream of anything else in the future, let me know in time.”
“Understood!”
Jiang Tianming chuckled. People like him practically never dreamed because they would enter the Mental Wander Realm the moment they fell asleep.
In a sense, the existence of the Mental Wander Realm extended the lifespan of a martial artist. All the believers were grateful to him for that.
The three of them chatted for a while before the topic shifted to Jiang Ziyu.
Jiang Ziyu had grown up, and there were more and more people fawning over him. There were even many aristocratic families who wanted to marry their descendants to him. Naturally, with him being a hot-blooded man, it was inevitable that he would be tempted.
Jiang Changsheng said, “If you meet someone you like, then accept them. As for the temporary position of empress, you don’t have to worry too much. After all, your father is in charge now.”
He only had one woman, Mu Lingluo, but that was because his situation was special. He was an immortal cultivator with a clear heart and few desires. His only addiction was cultivation. In the world of martial arts, who would not have three wives and four concubines? This was not the modern world on Earth, especially since Jiang Ziyu was the Crown Prince. In his position, he had to face more beauties.
“Thank you, Father.”
Jiang Ziyu said happily as he listened to Jiang Tianming making fun of him.
Jiang Tianming did not like women and was even somewhat resistant to them. Perhaps it was related to his bloodline, but he did not have such an impulse towards women. In fact, in his eyes, there was not much difference between humans and ferocious beasts. It was just that humans were closer to him.
Jiang Changsheng was in a good mood as he watched them bicker.
It was also good to sit down and chat with the younger generation like this once in a while so that he could maintain his youthful mentality.
The news of the defeat of the Sand Race and the Zhurong Race quickly spread throughout the Great Wilderness. The armies sent by the two races were completely wiped out, leaving only behind some of their people. After this battle, a complete feud was formed between them and the Human Race. They were now looking for help to jointly suppress the Human Race. Under their propaganda, the Human Race had become a source of calamity for the myriad races. What’s more, the Emperor of Heavenly Jing had also been demonized.
In the depths of the Great Wilderness, black clouds surged and covered the sky. The mountains below were undulating and the forest swayed with the wind, forming green waves.
Among the mountains, there were stone buildings and pagodas. Many men and women came and went. Men plowed while women weaved. Some were also meditating.
Dozens of men and women sat in two rows in a huge stone hall. Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian were present among them.
The leader was a white-haired old man, with a burly physique that looked to be stronger than everyone present. His sharp gaze landed on a thin man in the hall.
“It is said that in the battle against Heavenly Jing, the Sand race and the Zhurong Race lost at least ten Martial Emperors, and this is a conservative estimation. I have more guesses. The two races did not dare to take revenge on the Heavenly Jing and could only smear their reputation everywhere.”
The skinny man was narrating the shocking war that had happened in the Great Wilderness recently. After that war, Heavenly Jing’s reputation had spread throughout the Great Wilderness and officially entered the eyes of the myriad races.
They were from the Bluestone Tribe, a tribe left behind by humans when they left the Great Wilderness. They had experienced countless setbacks before they were able to survive until now. The Bluestone Tribe could be considered powerful, but they were far inferior to the Sand Tribe and the Zhurong race.
Other than the Bluestone Tribe, there were other human tribes in the Great Wilderness. However, the Bluestone Tribe was already one of the most powerful tribes. The other tribes were struggling at death’s door and had become prey for the powerful races.
Before the arrival of Jiang Jian and the others, the Bluestone Tribe had always regarded themselves as humans and believed that they bore the glory of the Human Race. Later on, they learned that the Human Race was still present in a distant ocean. However, they did not take it seriously because they had heard that the Martial Emperor of the Human Race had fallen. Even though Lin Haotian bragged about Jiang Changsheng, the Bluestone Tribe still did not take it seriously until now.
How powerful were the Sand Race and the Zhurong Race? The Bluestone Tribe had encountered the Zhurong Race before, and those existences that were similar to the gods of fire terrified them.
The white-haired old man looked at Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian. His name was
Yan Dian, and he was the chieftain of the Bluestone Tribe. He asked, “Jian’er, is the Heavenly Jing Emperor your grandfather?”
The others looked at him one after another.
Jiang Jian said, “That’s right. He is definitely the most powerful being in the world. Even if the myriad races invade Heavenly Jing, they are not his opponent.”
Lin Haotian nodded in agreement. They were all able to enter the Mental Wander Realm, so they knew the changes in Heavenly Jing the best.
“Wow, Jiang Jian. I thought you were just bragging.”
“Even the Sand Race and the Zhurong Race can’t do anything to Heavenly Jing.
Perhaps Heavenly Jing can help us resolve our predicament.”
“But Heavenly Jing is so far away from us. How can they help us?
“In fact, because Heavenly Jing is here, the attention of those bastards has been diverted.”
“Recently, there have been more and more meteorites from outer space. It’s obvious that the Outerworld Devil River is about to arrive. In the face of such a catastrophe, the Great Wilderness still has to start a war. It’s really a disaster.”
The people in the stone hall discussed. They were all experts of the Bluestone Tribe, and Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian were the weakest here.
Yan Dian closed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a while.
Yan Dian said, “Jian’er, can you bring people to search for Heavenly Jing? I want to know more about Heavenly Jing.”
When Jiang Jian heard that, he was about to speak when Lin Haotian took the lead and said, “Let me go. He can’t bear to leave his small home right now.”
As soon as he said that, the others burst into laughter. Most of them were kind-hearted. After arriving for so long, Jiang Jian had already obtained the recognition of the Bluestone Tribe.
Jiang Jian looked at Lin Haotian and wanted to say something, but Lin Haotian shook his head and told him not to speak.
Yan Dian pondered and said, “Alright, I will personally select a team to go and check out Heavenly Jing.”
Time flew by, and the days passed quickly.
Even after Jiang Changsheng ascended to the throne, Jiang Changsheng’s life was still as simple as before. Most of the time, he concentrated on his cultivation and did not even hold morning court. This was the longest period a morning court was not held since the establishment of Great Jing. However, no one thought that Jiang Changsheng had lost his way. Even without these processes, Heavenly Jing was not in chaos. On the contrary, it was thriving.
In the Mental Wander Realm, Jiang Changsheng once said that officials who reported corruption and crimes would be rewarded.
With the existence of the Mental Wander Realm, regardless of their status, anyone could report a crime to him. In such a situation, all officials had to be careful.
Jiang Changsheng was governing the dynasty in a way that was incomprehensible to the people in the Martial Dao World. He devoted minimal energy to governing the dynasty, but still gained huge rewards.
Of course, other than the existence of the Mental Wander Realm, the strength of his soul was also particularly important, as it allowed him to sense the thoughts of all his believers.
With all these factors, Heavenly Jing ushered in a prosperous era. Even though there were still noble classes, the citizens at the bottom of the pyramid still had hope.
In the blink of an eye.
Ten years passed.
In the 33rd year of the Immortal Era, spring and summer alternated, and the weather in Jingcheng was pleasant.
Inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng was currently meditating and cultivating. It had been 34 years since he broke through to the tenth level of the Dao Technique, but he still maintained a focused attitude as his mind entered a new stage.
The cultivation of the Dao Fruit!
His physical body and soul had transformed into the immortal stage. Next was the cultivation of the Dao Fruit.
Dao Fruits seemed to be divided into ranks. For the time being, he was not sure what would happen after a breakthrough.
Over the years, his understanding of the Dao Fruit had deepened. The Dao Fruit did not exist in his body, but in another dimension, just like the soul. The soul was located in the physical body, but it was hard to find it in the physical body. The existence of the Dao Fruit was located deeper than the soul, especially as his strength became stronger and stronger.
In his understanding, the Dao Fruit was similar to the rules of heaven and earth. It was formless, shapeless, soundless, and colorless, but it really existed.
He slowly opened his eyes, and a golden light flashed in them.
He began to habitually calculate the strongest experts in different distances.
The strongest expert in the world had reached 9-5 billion incense points; this was including the Great Wilderness. Other than him, the strongest expert in Heavenly Jing was still Tong Tiandi, with a net worth of nearly 300 million incense points.
The Demon Supreme was still valued around 6 billion incense points. At his level, it was very difficult to break through a level.
If one were to ask who the strongest expert the system had detected, it would be the Great Wilderness Divine Lord, who was valued around 200 billion incense points.
From the looks of it, unless the heavens were against him, Jiang Changsheng was invincible in this Martial Dao World. However, he was still tense and did not dare to relax.
In regards to the realm of martial arts, he might very well be in the same realm as the Great Wilderness Divine Lord. However, he was just slightly stronger than him, and the thought of that made him feel insecure. He had to be much stronger than his known enemies before he could feel safe.
Throughout his journey, he had relied on such information to defeat powerful enemies.
Since this was already the case, there must be many more such experts.
Jiang Changsheng had just become an immortal, so he did not feel that he was very close to becoming invincible. There were too many things he could not do, which meant that he was still far from being invincible.
He continued to calculate and try to find out about incoming crises through various questions. At the same time, he opened the door of the Purple Cloud Palace with a thought.
Chen Li walked in quickly and bowed respectfully before him. “Half a month ago, the garrison outside encountered a meteorite. After investigation, the soldiers discovered a stone slab that recorded a martial arts technique.”
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and looked at him, urging him to continue.
“According to our interaction with the other races, we have discovered that meteorites have often fallen in the past few decades. Some contain martial arts techniques, ultimate techniques, divine weapons, and treasures. This matter is extremely strange. I suspect that the God of this world is supporting the myriad races by doing this. Even though we have picked up some meteorites, most of them have been discovered by the myriad races. In the long run, the races that obtain the help from the outside world will definitely become stronger and stronger.”
Speaking of this, his expression became ugly.
As for the unknown beyond the heavens, he naturally retained a trace of fear.
Jiang Changsheng said, “It’s okay. Treasures from beyond the heavens can’t last long. They can’t be endless, right? The God of Heaven and Earth is suppressing the Human Race because he was afraid of our strength. It’s impossible for him to create a second race like the Human Race.”
This was the result of his deep thoughts. The order Great Wilderness Divine
Lord gave to the myriad races was to eradicate the Human Race, not just him.
If he were Great Wilderness Divine Lord and only targeted anomalies, he could have instigated a rebellion among the humans and forced him into an awkward situation..
