Chapter 112: Chao Sects Enter Great Jing, Golden Body Appears
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Everyone in Great Jing was mobilized. In the martial arts world, the martial arts examination had become more lively than in previous years. Even the civil examination was the same.
The Emperor’s holy will had spread throughout the world. A larger dynasty needed to be managed, and a large territory meant more people were needed. Those with great ambitions were all hot-blooded.
From time to time, good news came from the front line. Coupled with the two newly born True Gods, there were a total of four True Gods running rampant at the front line. Their reputation also spread throughout the forty-nine states.
The princes at the border were on high alert, guarding against the surprise attacks from the other dynasties. However, the fact was that the dynasties around Great Jing were terrified, fearing that they would be conquered.
The 49 states of Great Jing, coupled with the land of the East Forest and the land of Great Wilderness, had far exceeded the territory of the Mahayana Dragon Tower at its peak. Now, it would not be a problem for them to take down Great Wilderness. At that time, the territory of the Great Jing would be doubled.
Jiang Changsheng noticed that Yu Yanyi had been visiting more and more diligently.
On this day, he finally could not help but ask, “Miss Yu, you have been giving gifts too often recently. What is the matter? Can you be frank?”
Yu Yanyi blushed and looked at Hua Jianxin and Jiang Jian.
Hua Jianxin smiled and immediately stood up to leave with Jiang Jian and Bai
Only the two of them were left in the courtyard. Yu Yanyi took a deep breath and said, “I want the Fuyue Family to enter Great Jing directly, but my father is not clear about your attitude towards the Fuyue Family and is afraid that you will not accept them.”
A Chao Sect entering Great Jing?
That was naturally a good thing!
Their arrival could stimulate the growth of Great Jing’s martial arts world.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “I naturally welcome the Fuyue Family.
However, if you are here, what about the dynasty you originally controlled?”
Yu Yanyi said, “Let them go and wait for Great Jing to annex them.”
Jiang Changsheng was surprised. She was so determined?
Yu Yanyi squirmed and said, “It’s just..
Some words were really hard to say.
It was not that Jiang Changsheng did not understand relationships. After all, he had lived two lives. It was just that he mainly focused on cultivation and did not want to be distracted by other trivial matters. He said, “If the Fuyue Family were to join Great Jing, as long as I am here, the Fuyue Family will have a foothold in Great Jing. Right now, the martial arts world of Great Jing also needs a true holy land to lead the path of martial arts.”
Yu Yanyi still wanted to say something but hesitated.
Seeing this, Jiang Changsheng added, “Miss Yu, you are talented. You should devote your energy to martial arts. The higher the realm of your martial arts, the longer you will live.”
Yu Yanyi frowned and asked, “The higher realm of martial arts can increase one’s lifespan, but it will end sooner or later. Who can live forever?”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Perhaps not now, but it might not be impossible in the future. Do you understand all the realms of the martial arts path? From my point of view, there should be a higher realm in martial arts, and the lifespan that comes with it will naturally increase. Who can determine that there is no immortality in martial arts?”
Yu Yanyi remained silent.
The two of them had known each other for twenty-five years, and Yu Yanyi had been staying in the capital. She would come to deliver gifts every three to five days. Jiang Changsheng had also noticed her affection for him. Perhaps she was doing this for the Fuyue Family, but her sacrifices could not be erased. Yu Yanyi was also considered a peerless beauty with good talent in all aspects. She was indeed worthy of Jiang Changsheng. After all, it was hard to find a woman more outstanding than her.
However, it was impossible for Jiang Changsheng to marry her directly. She was the daughter of the Fuyue Family’s Family Head and he was the Dao
Ancestor. If they were to marry, how could Jiang Ziyu face the Fuyue Family?
If that happened, what was the Fuyue Family’s status in Great Jing?
He could not cause trouble for his son.
Jiang Changsheng said bluntly, “The previous woman’s name is Hua Jianxin and she is my woman.”
Yu Yanyi said indifferently, “I know. How can that not happen if you accepted her in your courtyard? Besides, there’s only one. My father has ten concubines.”
Jiang Changsheng said helplessly, “I’ll teach you a martial art technique. Do you want to learn it?”
Yu Yanyi stared at him and stubbornly said, “I don’t want to be your disciple.”
Jiang Changsheng was amused and said, “You are not going to be my disciple. I just want to teach you and repay the gifts you’ve given me over the years. Are you going to learn?”
Yu Yanyi said in all seriousness, “If I don’t have to be your disciple, of course I want to learn.”
In the 42nd year of the Qianwu Era, the Fuyue Family, a Chao Sect, settled down in the Si Province. The Emperor specially granted them a hundred miles of land to establish their sect. A large number of martial artists from the Fuyue Family also migrated over quickly.
There were at least hundreds of thousands of disciples in the dynasty and the number was nearing a million. There were also many disciples in the Mahayana Dragon Tower. However, Xiao Duotian had left behind a backup plan for them to spread out to every corner of the world and wait for them to make a comeback in the future.
Half a year later, the Emperor issued an edict to the world, informing everyone that the Fuyue Family had joined and conferred the Fuyue Family as the second holy land for martial arts in Great Jing!
The moment the edict was released, the world was in an uproar. After so many years, Chao Sects were no longer a secret. Even the commoners knew that a powerful Chao Sect was willing to join Great Jing. Furthermore, it was only the second holy land, lower than Longqi Temple. This was enough to prove that Great Jing had subdued a Chao Sect and not been controlled.
The martial arts world was even more excited because the imperial decree had stated that the Fuyue Family would offer their ultimate techniques to the True Martial Pavilion. This meant that Great Jing’s martial arts foundation would be stronger!
The Fuyue Family would hold the sect inauguration ceremony in June next year and invite the various martial arts sects of Great Jing to participate. This was obviously putting down their status and preparing to integrate with the martial arts world of Great Jing, instead of becoming independent.
In order to support Great Jing, the Fuyue Family sent out two True Gods to join the army. One went to Great Wilderness to provide support, and the other acted as a mentor to guide the reserve forces of the Heavenly Strategy Army. Jiang Ziyu was not stingy in response and conferred the titles of third-ranked military positions to the two True Gods.
At the same time, Great Wilderness was riddled with holes. The Heavenly Strategy Army plundered the cities without restraint. They did not attack the capital city directly. Instead, they gradually devoured it.
The Emperor of Great Wilderness was angered to death by the continuous reports of the war. The Crown Prince took advantage of the situation and ascended the throne, but what was left for him was a dynasty that was about to be destroyed.
Great Wilderness was in danger!
In November, the Heavenly Strategy Army was stopped by a group of mysterious experts on a grassland. There were eight True Gods, all of whom were skilled in martial arts. However, when Huang Chuan took out his brocade bag, they immediately fled in fright.
Fortunately, Huang Chuan did not open the brocade bag. He would only use it if he had to face a Golden Body realm expert. He only wanted to scare these eight True Gods.
As expected, it worked!
This matter spread widely in the Heavenly Strategy Army and the other armies of Great Jing, even to the 49 states of Great Jing.
Dao Ancestor’s might had prompted the retreat of eight True Gods. This news spread throughout the world
Year 43 of the Qianwu Era, early March.
The weather changed drastically, and the luck of Great Jing surged!
In the courtyard, Jiang Changsheng looked up. The sea of clouds formed a huge vortex, looking extremely spectacular. The providence between heaven and earth was surging violently. He could sense a huge amount of true qi coming from the depths of the palace.
Ping’an was advancing to the Golden Body realm!
This kind of talent was really terrifying!
Even though Ping’an had been given all the resources in the world by Jiang Ziyu, his talent was also crucial.
How old was he?
64 years old!
On this continent, a 64-year-old Golden Body realm expert was definitely a rare prodigy!
At the same time.
Under the palace, there was an underground plaza specially built by Jiang Ziyu. It was very vast, and the stone pillars were inlaid with night pearls of various colors, illuminating the entire plaza.
Jiang Ziyu, Han Tianji, and a black-robed old man looked at Ping’an who was meditating in a small pool.
The surface of Ping’an’s body had turned golden and flames surrounded him. His muscles swelled and those twisted blood vessels were surging like a group of snakes. It looked extremely terrifying. He closed his eyes and frowned. Below him was a pool of blood that was entering his body and being absorbed by him.
The black-robed old man stroked his beard and lamented, “The Golden Body realm. This talent is too terrifying. I have lived for two hundred years, but I have never seen such a genius. Perhaps only in Xiansheng Grotto-heaven can there be such a genius.”
He was the Family Head of the Fuyue Family, Yu Qinpeng, and his strength was at the peak of the True God realm. When he heard that Ping’an was about to break through, he specially came to take a look to obtain some insights. Jiang Ziyu did not refuse and was not worried that Yu Qinpeng would harm him.
Jiang Ziyu smiled proudly and said, “It is all thanks to him that I am where I am today. We are real brothers.”
Han Tianji was also emotional. He previously thought that Jiang Ziyu was too crazy. If he were to fail, it would be a waste of so many rare treasures. He did not expect that he would really succeed.
His Majesty knew Ping’an the best. As expected of this pair of senior and junior brothers.
Jiang Ziyu smiled and said, “I have a son named Jiang Jian. He has been practicing martial arts with the Dao Ancestor since he was young. The Dao Ancestor said that he has the talent to reach the Golden Body realm. In other words, Great Jing will have two Golden Body realm experts in the future. Coupled with the Dao Ancestor, a peerless expert that has surpassed the Golden Body realm.”
When Yu Qinpeng heard that, he could not help but be moved.
There was another person?
“Indeed. His Ninth Highness could use a divine weapon weighing ten thousand kilograms when he was twenty years old. His talent is not inferior to General Ping’an.” Han Tianji smiled.
Yu Qinpeng was interested in Jiang Jian. He remembered Yu Yanyi mentioning him before, but he did not care at first and felt that Great Jing was bragging.
Now that Ping’an had advanced to the Golden Body realm, it proved that the people of Great Jing really had the ability to create a Golden Body realm expert.
The three of them chatted and laughed, while Ping’an was still consolidating his strength. Even though he was born a fool, he was superior to others in terms of martial arts. Not only did he know how to fight, but he could also circulate his strength without panicking.
Jiang Changsheng stood up and stretched his muscles with a smile.
Bai Qi curiously asked, “Did Ping’an reach the Golden Body realm?”
Jiang Changsheng nodded in agreement.
Bai Qi trembled. When could she break through and reach the True God realm?
Hua Jianxin was not surprised by this. On the side, Jiang Jian asked about
Ping’an’s age and silently noted it down. He secretly vowed to break this record.
Jiang Changsheng was in a good mood. He sent a voice transmission to Wan Li and asked him to bring Qing’er here.
It was worth mentioning that Qing’er had learned Meng Qiuhe’s martial arts. At the age of 34, she had already reached the Heaven Arrival realm. Among the disciples of Longqi Temple, she was definitely outstanding.
After ten minutes, Wan Li came with Qing’er.
Qing’er’s face was filled with nervousness, excitement, and apprehension. She looked forward to meeting Jiang Changsheng, but she did not know why he was looking for her.
Qing’er took a deep breath and walked into the courtyard.
When Jiang Jian saw her, he greeted her with a smile, “Sister Qing’er, why are you here?”
Qing’er became even more nervous when she heard that. Fortunately, Jiang
Changsheng’s voice sounded. “I called her over. Qing’er, come here.”
Hearing this, Qing’er turned her head and looked over. Jiang Changsheng was meditating under a tree, and the shade of the tree could not hide the beauty of the Great Feathered Robe.
She hastily walked to Jiang Changsheng and bowed respectfully.
Jiang Changsheng motioned for her to sit down and asked, “Do you have any questions regarding martial arts recently? Why haven’t you stepped into the Divine realm yet?”
Meng Qiuhe’s martial arts technique was not simple, as he was able to reach the True God realm relatively easily.
Of course, martial arts technique was only one of the factors. He had clearly used other methods. Perhaps it was related to the Mahayana Dragon Tower that he had squeezed dry his lifespan..
