“In the 17th year of the Qianwu Era, the Martial Comprehension Valley and the Star Gathering Tower gathered a total of nine dynasties to attack Great Jing, leading the latter to be on the verge of a crisis. Fortunately, you took action. As a result, you survived a calamity and obtained a survival reward—Divine Power, Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique.”
“In the 17th year of the Qianwu Era/ , the Deputy Pavilion Master of Star
Gathering Tower, Scholar Li, wanted to attack the royal family of the Great Jing Dynasty. Fortunately, you took action. You survived the calamity and received a survival reward—Magical Weapon, Giant Spirit Ring.”
Two consecutive notifications appeared before Jiang Changsheng’s eyes. He immediately smiled and returned to his room.
Bai Qi looked up. Although she was curious, she did not dare to disturb him. At this time, Jiang Changsheng’s clone had returned, indicating that the war had ended.
She could not imagine how Jiang Changsheng had won against two Chao Sects and the tens of millions of soldiers.
Inside the house.
Jiang Changsheng took out the Giant Spirit Ring first. The Giant Spirit Ring was silver in color and its surface was embedded with tiny jade stones of different colors. The inherited memories of the Giant Spirit Ring surged into his mind.
This ring could be used as a storage ring, as it hid a large space inside, and when spiritual energy was injected into the Giant Spirit Ring, it could also trigger it to form a protective shield to resist against incoming attacks. It was a very practical magical weapon.
Jiang Changsheng immediately put it on and at the same time, refined the ring so that it would acknowledge him as its master.
An hour later, he began to inherit the memories of the Divine Power of the Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique.
The Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique sounded awesome, and this was his first Divine Power.
The Scattering Beans into Soldiers spell was not a Divine Power. He wanted to see how powerful the Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique was.
The Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique, as the name implies, could move mountains. The reason why it was a Divine Power was naturally not because it could move mountains in the traditional sense. With this technique, he could temporarily absorb mountains into his body and move them, which also would cause his body to have the weight of absorbed mountains. He could also directly lift mountains and shrink them into his palms, but the actual weight of it would not change.
Hiss—
Not bad!
Jiang Changsheng could hide a mountain in his palm with the Great Yan
Mountain Movement Technique and suddenly smash it towards the enemy.
How domineering would that be?
In addition, the Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique was not only a technique that could only move mountains. It could also move other large objects with the same effect. However, it was best not to hide living creatures in one’s body as it would easily cause one’s spiritual energy to be chaotic.
As for how big of a mountain he could move, it was unknown for the time being. Since it was a Divine Power, it was definitely not something that could be used with just spiritual energy. It could definitely unleash a greater effect than just using spiritual energy.
Jiang Changsheng was very satisfied with these two rewards. He should be able to relax for a long time in the future. With so much time, he should be able to spend time cultivating the Divine Power of the Great Yan Mountain Movement Technique and break through to the seventh level of the Dao Technique.
Several days later.
A piece of news shocked the entire world!
When the Great jing army fought against the armies of nine different dynasties, Immortal Master Changsheng took action and killed four million enemy troops alone. The Great Jing army pursued the victory and the nine armies were utterly defeated, less than half of the ten million troops were left!
The twenty-two prefectures were in an uproar, and the surrounding dynasties were also shocked.
When everyone heard the news, their first reaction was that the information was wrong. It was simply the biggest joke in the world.
That was tens of millions of troops. How could four million people be killed by one person in a day?
Even if it was four million pigs, how many could they kill in a day?
However, more and more details of the battlefield began to spread. Some said that Golden Body realm experts and True God realm experts had been slaughtered, some said that there were purple palm silhouettes as large as the sky, some said that there were weapons hanging in the sky, and some said that beans were turning into soldiers. The more the news spread, the more ridiculous it became.
The name of the Immortal Master Changsheng once again spread throughout the world. This time, his name brought about a bad reputation. After all, it was a reputation formed by the accumulation of more than four million souls.
When Jiang Ziyu heard the news, he laughed out loud and was extremely excited.
He held an emergency court meeting, and the officials gathered. Everyone was very excited. Great Jing was alive and thriving!
“You said that Great Jing is destined to end. How do you feel now?”
Jiang Ziyu asked with a high-spirited smile. Jiang Xiu also looked at the officials teasingly.
Many of the officials had awkward expressions and could only flatter Jiang Ziyu.
“Your Majesty is wise. You have once again saved Great Jing!”
“A battle will decide the world. From now on, no previous emperor in the thirteen prefectures can compare to His Majesty!”
“This is an unprecedented achievement, Your Majesty is mighty!” “Hahaha, the heavens bless Great Jing, the heavens bless Great Jing!”
“God bless His Majesty. His Majesty is fated!”
The officials’ flattery made Jiang Ziyu even happier. How proud he was today? The anger he had accumulated over the past two years had been completely vented.
Awesome!
It felt so good!
Han Tianji did not say anything. He was still shocked, as he knew more details about the battlefield. It was entirely Immortal Master Changsheng who destroyed the two Chao Sects.
After this war, not only would nine dynasties fall, but the two Chao Sects would also be finished!
After all, all the Chao Sects were eyeing each other covetously. Now that the Martial Comprehension Valley and Star Gathering Tower had suffered such a calamity, the other Chao Sects would definitely devour them.
None of these could compare to Great Jing!
Great Jing would completely rise and establish an independent martial arts dynasty!
For a long time, dynasties had been controlled by martial artists. Only Great Jing had imperial power above martial artists!
Han Tianji was also excited. After all, he had chosen to side with Great Jing. With the rise of Great Jing, he was also proud.
Chen Li stepped forward and cupped his hands with a smile. “Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty not reward the Immortal Master Changsheng for his contributions?”
The other officials agreed with him. Everyone knew about the relationship between Jiang Changsheng and Jiang Ziyu. No matter how much they rewarded him, it would not be a problem. They did not even have to worry about him coveting imperial power because Immortal Master Changsheng had suppressed the nine dynasties by himself. If he wanted to rebel, who could stop him?
“That’s exactly what I have in mind. Immortal Master Changsheng is my master, and he has no intention to govern. He spends all day refining elixirs and cultivating the Dao. Therefore, I will bestow him with the title of Dao
Ancestor. From now on, all future emperors will not be able to ignore Longqi Temple, and it will be established as the holy land of the martial arts world. The officials and commoners of the Great Jing Dynasty will have to kneel and pay their respects to the Dao Ancestor as if they are meeting me.”
Jiang Ziyu smiled and said. He paused for a moment before he added, “If martial artists wish to challenge the disciples of Longqi Temple, it is still possible. They can even challenge the Dao Ancestor, but they must not harm the innocent!
That was Jiang Changsheng’s special order not to prohibit experts from challenging him. As for the reason, he did not say. Jiang Ziyu thought that he was itching for a fight. After all, everyone had an aggressive side.
“Your Majesty is wise!”
The officials praised him, and no one dared to refute.
The Dao Ancestor…
This title was really resounding.
Little did they know that there was another reason why Jiang Ziyu gave the title of Dao Ancestor. A Dao Ancestor was also considered an imperial ancestor.
The Emperor announced to the world that he would appoint Daoist Master Changsheng as the Dao Ancestor. He also declared Longqi Temple as the holy land of the martial arts world and posted a notice to all the cities.
The martial arts world was shocked. Since ancient times, Longqi Temple was the first martial arts sect to be conferred as a holy land by a royal court. In the past, emperors would be afraid of martial arts sects. Therefore, there were many holy lands that were conferred by people from the martial arts world.
Everyone in Longqi Temple was excited. The pilgrims were constantly coming, and the gate was as crowded as a marketplace. A large number of nobles also came to give gifts.
In a courtyard.
As Qing’er stood in front of her father, he crouched down and instructed, “Qing’er, train well in the Daoist temple in the future and don’t go down the mountain. I will come up the mountain to see you often. What do you think?”
This place was the Holy Land of Great Jing. The burly man did not dare to receive so many privileges, fearing that Longqi Temple would not want his daughter anymore.
Qing’er nodded and giggled. “Father, I like this place very much. Everyone is very good to me. Father, don’t worry. I will be happy.”
The burly man’s eyes reddened. He rubbed her head and said with a smile, “Qing’er is so obedient. Our family’s luck is about to change.”
They were really blessed by the heavens.
The burly man could not forget Jiang Changsheng. He knew that their family’s good luck stemmed from that Daoist Master.
The current Dao Ancestor!
The hustle and bustle of Longqi Temple continued for a long time. Hua Jianxin and Jiang Xiu often brought other princes and princesses with them. They were all his grandsons and granddaughters, so Jiang Changsheng naturally did not put on airs.
The princes and princesses all admired Jiang Changsheng and kept asking about the decisive battle and the Scattering Beans into Soldiers spell.
Their arrival was also Jiang Ziyu’s idea. He did not wish for future generations to not acknowledge Jiang Changsheng.
It was not until the new year that the hustle and bustle of Longqi Temple finally subsided.
Among the mountains, pavilions were hidden in the valley, just like a village in a peach garden. In a pavilion.
Bang!
A table was smashed into pieces. The culprit was a young man in blue, and his handsome face had become twisted.
Valley Master Wei Huo sat on the chair with a gloomy expression and fear in his eyes.
A white-robed woman stood beside the blue-robed young man. She was beautiful and had a dignified temperament. She looked at the blue-robed young man with worry.
The blue-robed young man glared at Wei Huo and angrily said, “Impossible! Absolutely impossible! My father is an expert in the Golden Body realm and has lived for three hundred years. He is unrivaled in the world. How could he die on the battlefield with the men of two Chao Sects accompanying him?
Furthermore, he was killed by a single person? Father-in-law, are you teasing
He was the son of Senior Dongfang, Dongfang Rujun.
In order to rope in Senior Dongfang, Wei Huo married his only daughter to
Dongfang Rujun and promised to make Dongfang Rujun the next Valley
Master. The Martial Comprehension Valley was not hereditary. As long as Dongfang Rujun became a disciple of the Martial Comprehension Valley and contributed greatly, it would not be difficult for him to become the Valley Master. Furthermore, he had his father who was in the Golden Body realm backing him.
Wei Huo said in a deep voice, “Rujun, how am I teasing you? Isn’t it enough to prove that all your senior uncles are dead? Do you think that the Martial Comprehension Valley and the Star Gathering Tower plotted against your father? Take a closer look. Other than me, there are no other True Gods in the Martial Comprehension Valley! ”
“Moreover, how can we have the strength to plot against someone in the Golden Body realm?”
Dongfang Rujun tried hard to calm himself down. He knew that Wei Huo could not have deceived him, but he could not accept this fact.
In his heart, his father was invincible.
How did all the top martial artists from a Chao Sect get wiped out in an unlosable battle?
“Why… Why is the Demonic Priest so powerful…”
Dongfang Rujun collapsed on a chair, trembling.
Unprecedented fear filled his heart and the room fell into silence.
He was not the only one who was afraid. Wei Huo was also afraid.
The white-robed woman could not help but ask, “Father, what should we do next?”
Wei Huo raised his head. His eyes were numb as he said in a hoarse voice, “Leave, leave this place…”
Dongfang Rujun clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “What about this grudge?”
Wei Huo smiled miserably and said, “You want revenge? Forget it. Let’s live first. Hundreds of years later, when that Demonic Priest dies, we will take revenge on Great Jing. I hope you can live until that day…”
He also hoped that the Martial Comprehension Valley could last until that day…
“What realm is he in? Could it be that there is a higher realm above the Golden Body realm?” Dongfang Rujun asked. His eyes were bloodshot. The anger and grievance in his heart almost made him faint.
Wei Huo was silent. He was also confused.
Dongfang Rujun stood up, took a deep breath, and said, “I am prepared to go to the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. If there is really an existence beyond the Golden Body realm in this world, they can only be in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. I am going to practice martial arts and avenge my father with my own hands in the future.
“Father-in-law, I’ll entrust her to you.”
With that said, Dongfang Rujun left resolutely, ignoring the cries of the white-robed woman..
