Chapter 332: Challenge from the Imperial Race

Chen Li felt that what Jiang Changshenz said made sense. He was mainly here to test the waters.
“As expected of the Dao Ancestor. He does not care about the God of the world at all. The Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Immortals is really powerful. It seems that whether in the mortal world and the upper world, fights are always inevitable.”
Chen Li thought to himself as he looked at Jiang Changsheng with respect.
After that, Jiang Changsheng entrusted him with some tasks, mainly related to Spirit Mountain. After the war ended, the Sand Race and the Zhurong Race brought about an opportunity for Heavenly Jing’s martial arts to erupt in strength. More and more martial artists stood out and obtained the qualifications to ascend the mountain. The management of Spirit Mountain also became complicated. From the imperial family to the commoner geniuses, geniuses of various levels and meritorious officials gathered together. It was inevitable that conflicts would erupt.
No matter how strong Jiang Changsheng was, he could only make most people turn their hearts to him and could not control all their private desires.
After Chen Li noted it down, he bowed and left.
Jiang Changsheng did not continue to cultivate. Instead, he used the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth to pry into the depths of the Great Wilderness.
The Martial Dao World was extremely vast. Even the current Jiang Changsheng had yet to see the entire Martial Dao World. Every year, he would spend time looking at the world. As for his clones with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, they could not keep up with the speed of his eyes.
This time, Jiang Changsheng continued to probe forward.
The races in the depths of the Great Wilderness were indeed powerful. All the beings that dared to walk openly on the ground were as large as a mountain. Even 10,000-feet-tall ferocious beasts seemed short here. However, Jiang Changsheng, who had seen the stars in the sky, no longer cared about their enormous size.
Ten thousand feet was only huge for mortals. Just like Earth in his previous life, it seemed huge, but in the vast universe, wasn’t it just a grain of sand?
How could Jiang Changsheng not take the viewpoint of the universe when he wanted to pursue the peak of the Immortal Dao?
At the very least, that was the realm Jiang Changsheng wanted to reach.
The world shrank, the mountains and rivers changed, and infinite magnificent scenery flashed past his eyes.
After a long time.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly raised his eyebrows. The Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth stopped.
It was a swamp with countless potholes. It was as big as a lake, and it was filled with fog. Many huge insects were entrenched here. Trees that reached the sky were hung with vines that were as thick as mountains. A meteorite landed on the swamp, and the swamp within a hundred miles collapsed, forming a huge mud pit.
At that moment, the huge meteorite was cracking. More and more cracks appeared on it, and it became larger and larger. From it, strands of black gas dissipated, looking ghastly and terrifying.
Jiang Changsheng had seen many meteorites along the way, but this was the first time he had seen a meteorite crack.
Under his gaze, pieces of the meteorite fell. It took a long time for it to completely fall apart. As it fell apart, he saw a snow-white figure. It was a woman, and only her upper body was exposed. Her lower body was still embedded in the meteorite. Her skin was fair and shining, and her black hair fluttered in the wind, which looked longer than her upper body.
Someone from beyond the heavens?
Jiang Changsheng observed her carefully. He had to admit that her body was perfect in terms of aesthetics, and her face was even more beautiful. She was more beautiful than all the women he knew.
She slowly broke free from the meteorite, and her black hair quickly wrapped around her body, covering her beautiful figure.
She looked up. Her eyes were like sapphires, and her gaze was cold. Her eyes were not lost, as if she was looking for something. Jiang Changsheng sensed the other party’s aura.
Strong!
She had definitely surpassed the Martial Emperor realm!
Could it be an enemy of the Great Wilderness Divine Lord?
Jiang Changsheng tried to calculate the strongest expert this woman could invite, but the system couldn’t calculate the answer. In other words, it was not the Great Wilderness Divine Lord.
Of course, there was another possibility. Even though she was the Great Wilderness Divine Lord’s subordinate, she could invite an existence stronger than him.
In any case, he had to be careful about people from beyond the heavens. Under Jiang Changsheng’s gaze, the woman flew in one direction.
“Strange, why do I feel like I’m being stared at?”
The woman from beyond the heavens muttered to herself. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted, and the black hair that covered her body became longer and denser.
“It seems like the Divine Lord is right. That anomaly is definitely not simple. Fortunately, I came down early. Otherwise…”
The woman from beyond the heavens was thinking this in her heart, but she did not say it out loud. She was also afraid that she would be overheard. Even though she felt that there was no threat within a radius of tens of millions of miles, she had to be careful in the face of unknown variables.
She sped up. Jiang Changsheng kept his eyes on her as he witnessed her killing a ferocious beast and turning its fur into a robe.
Seeing that she did not head straight for Heavenly Jing, Jiang Changsheng no longer paid attention to her and continued to explore the unknown area.
Late at night.
The woman from beyond the heavens sat by a large river. Under the moonlight, the surface of the river sparkled, reflecting the twisting moon.
She took out a jade stone the size of a goose egg and infused her true qi into it. Soon, the jade stone lit up, which revealed the face of Divine Lord Zi Huan.
“Divine Lord, I have arrived at the Great Wilderness Martial World,” the woman from beyond the heavens whispered.
Divine Lord Zi Huan’s expression did not change as he said, “Find the Human Race first, but don’t alert the enemy. Find the strongest human and try your best to rope them in.”
The woman from beyond the heavens nodded.
Divine Lord Zi Huan was still worried and said, “Yaoling, remember not to look down on this world. The existence you are facing might not be inferior to you. An anomaly that the Great Wilderness Divine Lord can’t do anything about cannot be evaluated with the combat strength of the living beings in this Martial Dao World.”
Chang Yaoling, who was also the woman from beyond the heavens, replied, “Rest assured, I understand the importance of this matter.”
Chang Yaoling put the jade in front of her eyes and absorbed it with her right eye. She looked up at the moonlight. No one knew what she was thinking.
“From the human world, the Upper Realm is really far away.”
Another two years passed.
In the 35th year of the Immortal Era, there were as many as five Holy Kings in
Heavenly Jing, one of which was Venerable Bai. The number of people in the Grotto-Heaven realm far exceeded the number before the war with the two races. Mu Lingluo had also begun to prepare to break through to the Martial King realm.
As autumn approached, Heavenly Jing once again encountered trouble. There were mysterious races that were massacring the martial artists outside.
Jiang Changsheng did some calculations. The other party was not very strong, and the strongest was only in the Martial King realm. Therefore, he did not make a move. He would just let Heavenly Jing solve the problem itself.
Even though the enemy was not strong, they were extremely crafty. They adopted a strategy of skirmishing and did not fight head-on.
Jiang Changsheng was not afraid of losing too many martial artists. If they died, they would go to Hell to reincarnate and practice martial arts in their next life. In any case, Heavenly Jing’s foundation had improved and was no longer the same as three hundred years ago.
The surroundings of Jingcheng were covered by autumn colors, and the prosperous city had a unique charm.
Right now, Jingcheng had become the most prosperous city. There were many caravans and escorts coming and going. Even the number of gates had increased to 16. Occasionally, they could see intelligent foreign races of the Great Wilderness.
Noon.
A strong wind came from the horizon at an extremely fast speed. Just as the people outside the city were overturned, they suddenly saw a cold light cutting through the sky and shooting towards the palace of Jingcheng.
Just as the cold light approached the palace, it suddenly stopped. It was a huge feather that was hundreds of feet long. The feather disappeared into thin air, and the citizens in the city guessed that the Emperor had taken action. They were only curious about the origin of that feather.
Inside the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng stood in front of the huge feather. There were words engraved on it. The handwriting was not as good as Heavenly Jing’s literary masters, but it revealed a sharp edge.
This was a letter of challenge!
A letter of challenge from a descendant of the Imperial Race that invited him to the divine mountain of the Imperial Race. If he won, the descendant of the Imperial Race would give him a huge opportunity.
Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows and revealed a smile.
He did not expect the Imperial Race of the Great Wilderness to be so virtuous. Of course, perhaps the other party wanted to plot against him. But if that was the case, this act would be too clumsy.
The feather also recorded the time of the challenge. The challenger would wait for him for at most ten years. If he did not go, it would mean giving up. If that were to happen, the Imperial Race would also follow the herd and attack Heavenly Jing.
Threat!
Jiang Changsheng calculated the other party’s strength in his heart. He was valued at around 9 billion incense points. No wonder he dared to challenge him.
However, the strongest expert the other party could invite was not even comparable to his own value. Such an opportunity was not worth it.
“Since you want to threaten me, I will force you to join hands with the myriad races to increase my survival reward.”
Jiang Changsheng thought silently. As he became stronger and stronger, his avatars would no longer be able to trigger the survival reward when they encountered Great Paragons. He estimated that the minimum standard for the survival reward was Martial Emperors, but how many Martial Emperors could a powerful race have?
It was better to wait for the myriad races to join hands and do something big!
Jiang Changsheng’s eyes narrowed. The huge feather ignited with flames and quickly turned into ashes.
He sat back on the cushion and began to cultivate.
A month later.
The martial arts world of Heavenly Jing had set off a culture of war. More and more martial artists had died in the hands of the foreign races, which had also stimulated the arrogance of the martial arts world of Heavenly Jing.
No one complained about the Emperor not taking action. Instead, they felt ashamed. Could it be that Heavenly Jing could not live without the Emperor?
Under the instigation of the believers, more and more experts left Heavenly Jing, even Jiang Ziyu and Jiang Tianming.
The Crown Prince’s departure from Heavenly Jing had caused quite a stir.
Jiang Changsheng was not afraid of Jiang Ziyu dying. This was because Jiang Ziyu and Jiang Tianming had three strands of his hair engraved with Divine Power.
Time passed and it was the end of the year.
Chang Yaoling, who came from beyond the heavens, walked on the mountain path. She looked at the majestic Heavenly Jing and Jingcheng in the distance and felt uneasy.
Ever since she came to Heavenly Jing, she had heard many legends. When she heard about the Heavenly Jing Emperor’s extraordinary Divine Powers, she was shocked.
If the legends were true, even the people from the Upper Realm could not accomplish some of the Heavenly Jing Emperor’s methods.
The more perturbed she was, the closer she wanted to get to the Heavenly Jing Emperor.
On the other side.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng also sensed her arrival.
“So soon?”
Jiang Changsheng was surprised. The place where this woman landed was extremely far from Heavenly Jing. Even if she surpassed the Martial Emperor realm, she could not have arrived so quickly, right?
However, since the other party dared to come, she must have wanted to see him.
He immediately sent a voice transmission to the White-robed Guards.
An hour later.
Chang Yaoling queued up to enter Jingcheng, but the moment she entered the city, a White-robed Guard found her.
“Miss, His Majesty wants to see you.”
The White-robed Guard spoke with an indistinguishable voice. With their masks on, it was impossible to distinguish their gender.
Chang Yaoling was shocked. Her inner technique was not simple, and even a Divine Lord would find it hard to discover her. This was the reason why Divine Lord Zi Huan dared to send her down to the mortal world.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in her heart. She nodded and followed the White-robed Guard.
The surrounding citizens and martial artists looked at her curiously and pointed at her. Some were curious about her identity while others coveted her
beauty..
