The 2nd year of the Taihe Era, the beginning of the year.
Emperor Shuntian had passed away, and he had lived for 76 years. During his 64-year reign, he was the youngest emperor to ascend the throne in the history of Great Jing. He was the emperor who had expanded the territory of Great Jing the most. He was the emperor with the highest realm of martial arts in the history of Great Jing!
These three honors were also the greatest in the history across the entirety of the Dragon Vein Continent. Not only were the people of Great Jing remembering and grieving his death, but everyone on continent was talking about him and admiring him.
Jiang Che sent Emperor Shuntian’s memorial tablet into the Ancestral Temple, which was named Tianzong.
Just by leading Great Jing to become a Sovereign Dynasty of Luck, his status in the history books could easily surpass the previous emperors.
In the courtyard.
Bai Qi lamented, “The Jing Martial Ancestor, Emperor Jing Wen, Jing Taizong, Jing Renzong, and Jing Tianzong. Now that Taihe is here, it has been almost two hundred years, right?” Jiang Changsheng calmly said, “180 years.”
He was also 180 years old.
Ye Xun said helplessly, “This is why I like martial arts. No matter how powerful you are, you have to be alive to enjoy it.”
Ji Wujun said, “That’s because of your outstanding talent. For most people, living for 200 years is not as good as dozens of years of imperial power.”
Huang Tian nervously said, “After I become the Demon Emperor, don’t tell me I can only live for another few decades?”
Even after Emperor Shuntian gave up his position, he was still facing the end of his life. It could be seen that as long as he accepted the throne, he had to face such a fate.
“You really know how to dream.”
“Haha, you don’t understand. Who asked you to be so mediocre?”
“Do you want a beating?
Bai Qi slapped Huang Tian with her claw. Caught off guard, Huang Tian was knocked to the ground.
Ji Wujun was already accustomed to their banter. Instead, she found it interesting. The corners of her mouth rose and she said, “The supreme beings of the demon race can live for a long time, because the demon race has no way to lead a dynasty. This is also the reason why the demon race can’t compete with the human race. In the same realm, geniuses of the human race can reach it in dozens of years, while demon beasts need to take much longer. God has allowed the demons to live for a long time, but it has also made the demons lag behind humans in becoming stronger.”
Jiang Changsheng thought of Tai Wa and Tai Xi. The speed at which these two demons became stronger was not slow.
Of course, Tai Wa and Tai Xi might not be demons. Perhaps they represented a new race.
Ye Xun said regretfully, “Unfortunately, the Sword God did not return. That old man has a good relationship with the late emperor.”
The Sword God was currently overseeing the East Continent, and it was said that he was still establishing a sect there. This was also Emperor Shuntian’s idea. The birth of a martial arts sect could speed up the integration of the people of the East Continent and Great Jing. After all, many people were resistant to the martial arts academies with the imperial court’s background.
Jiang Jian went up to Jiang Changsheng and asked curiously, “Grandmaster, what did you say to Tiansheng last time? His reaction was even more exciter than when he heard the news of the victor of the West Sea.
Jiang Tiansheng was Emperor Shuntian’s real name.
There were too many ways to address an emperor. People in the dynasty did not dare to call him by his real name.
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and said, “I naturally answered that Great Jing could become a Sacred Dynasty and that he should trust his descendants.”
“That’s it?”
“Then what do you expect me to say?”
“That’s true.”
Jiang Jian said helplessly. He had a feeling that Jiang Changsheng must have said something important that made Emperor Shuntian ecstatic.
When Jiang Changsheng felt him turn around, he continued to pay attention to the Dao World.
The blood egg formed by the little swallow had become very large, reaching twenty feet tall. There was still an endless stream of spiritual energy pouring in. One could vaguely see a bird inside with its wings wrapped around its body.
As time passed, White Dragon, Tai Wa, and Tai Xi were too lazy to keep watch over it. As for the Taisui, the Sky Crow, the Luoyu, and the Laotuo, they did not dare to approach the egg, causing the area to be very quiet.
As Jiang Changsheng’s cultivation realm increased, the Dao World continued to expand. Even with these huge beasts around, the world still seemed desolate.
No one knew when the Dao World would give birth to a living being on its own.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the blood egg for a while before retracting his gaze.
That night, he visited Mu Lingluo in her dreams.
He continued to visit Mu Lingluo in her dreams every month and paid attention to the Mu Family’s situation.
After breaking through to the Golden Body realm, Mu Lingluo relied on the Invincible Reincarnation Scripture and the Great Vajra Divine Body to grow rapidly. She could already contend against the Universe realm experts in her family, and her talent made the Mu Family look forward to her future.
“This month, the Mu Family took in another group of wandering martial artists. However, some of them were spies who wanted to inquire about the Mu Family’s background. Fortunately, they discovered it in time. It seems like the
Mu Family’s growth has attracted the covetous eyes of many forces.
Fortunately, we have not stopped moving.”
Mu Lingluo said helplessly as a trace of coldness flashed past her eyes.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “The Mu Family has indeed become much stronger, much stronger than when they were in the Ancient God Continent.” After so many years at sea, the Mu Family’s net worth had doubled.
Mu Lingluo nodded and said, “That’s right. The Mu Family is unprecedentedly united. I quite like the current atmosphere. Everyone has a sense of mission.
With less intrigue, we are willing to go through fire and water for the family.”
A smile appeared on her face and she asked, “Brother Changsheng, I want to know what Great Jing is like right now. Not only me, but all the disciples of the Mu Family also want to know.”
Jiang Changsheng said, “We conquered another sea area, but the Emperor just passed away and is replaced with a new emperor. Two years ago, another large force defected to Great Jing.”
Mu Lingluo curiously asked, “Is that major force very powerful?”
“It’s alright. There are two Six Grotto-heaven realm experts and dozens of
Heaven Arrival realm experts.”
“What? Six Grotto-heaven? Two of them?”
Mu Lingluo widened her beautiful eyes in shock.
The reason why Jiang Changsheng mentioned it was because the Mu Family had come into contact with more and more forces recently. There were also many olive brances along the way that were thrown towards them. Therefore, he had to give the Mu Family confidence for them to stay on track.
Mu Lingluo was surprised when Jiang Changsheng told her about the Dragon Transformation Mansion.
“Brother Changsheng, you have a dragon under you? Where did you encounter a dragon?”
There were no real dragons in the Ancient God Continent, but there were legends about dragons.
Jiang Changsheng said, “It’s just a coincidence. When you come, I’ll let you see her elegance.”
“Really?”
“When have I ever lied to you?”
Mu Lingluo beamed with joy and looked forward to arriving at Great Jing even more.
She now understood the significance of this journey. With Brother
Changsheng’s abilities, he would definitely be able to take her away. However, she wanted to bring the Mu Family with her so that she could use the Mu Family to attract more martial artists to join. In the future, she would strengthen Great Jing and help Great Jing become a Sacred Dynasty. At that time, the Mu Family would definitely contribute greatly and they would be able to integrate into Great Jing better.
Mu Xuangang also understood this point, so he was very motivated.
They could go directly to Great Jing, where it was unfamiliar, but if they contributed, they could obtain status in Great Jing.
As for why they decided to join Great Jing and not any other Luck Dynasties, it was because only Great Jing had an immortal!
With the demon disaster behind them, it was safer to join Great Jing that had the protection of an immortal god.
The two of them chatted for a while before they began to compare notes on martial arts. This was already their habit. Fighting against Jiang Changsheng could make Mu Lingluo stronger quickly.
Year 3 of the Taihe Era.
Mid-April.
Rumble—
The thirteen prefectures of Great Jing ushered in an earthquake. Fortunately, the earthquake was not strong and did not cause the citizens to worry.
As for Jiang Changsheng, he began to pry into the dragon vein.
Great Jing had abundant luck and the weather was good. It had been a long time since Great Jing had encountered an earthquake. So, the first thing he thought of was that there was a problem with the dragon vein.
However, he did not see any abnormalities in the dragon vein. The stone tablet that suppressed the dragon vein was also intact.
“Am I being paranoid?”
Jiang Changsheng thought silently and asked in his heart, “What was the cause of this earthquake?”
[4,209 ,4982 incense points will be consumed. Do you wish to continue?] NO!
Wasn’t this Great Jing’s net worth? How could he dare to continue?
Ever since the Dragon Transformation Mansion joined, Great Jing’s luck had begun to soar. However, the Dragon Transformation Mansion had yet to integrate with Great Jing’s luck, so Great jing’s net worth had not increased by 35 million incense points at this point.
The earthquake was related to Great Jing as a whole. In other words, the reason came from Great Jing…
Forget it. Perhaps he was thinking too much.
If something big was about to happen, he would talk about it when the time came.
Even though Jiang Changsheng already had more than 400 million incense points, he did not want to spend randomly one-tenth of it.
After all, he still had to prepare for the tribulation. He did not want to encounter another situation where he did not have enough incense points during the tribulation.
Jiang Changsheng continued to cultivate. His Dao Technique naturally absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, nourishing his Dao Fruit and transforming it into strands of spiritual energy.
A month later.
When Jiang Che came to visit Jiang Changsheng, he first said, “The Sword God is missing! ”
As soon as he said that, everyone looked at him with strange expressions.
Ye Xun frowned and asked, “Missing? What do you mean by missing? Was he captured or did he leave on his own?”
Jiang Che shook his head and said, “I don’t know. I just received a secret letter from the White-robed Guards. It states that the Sword God has disappeared for a month and did not leave any letters. Even his sect’s disciples don’t know where he went.”
Jiang Changsheng immediately sensed the reincarnation mark in the Sword God’s body.
He had imprinted the reincarnation mark on everyone around him, so he was not afraid of them suddenly disappearing. That was unless the Sword God could run out of the system’s detection range within a month, but it was very difficult. A One Grotto-heaven realm expert did not have that kind of speed.
Soon, Jiang Changsheng locked onto the reincarnation mark of the Sword God. Then, he used the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth and said, “It’s okay. I’ve found him.’
Jiang Che breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the faint golden light in Jiang Changsheng’s eyes.
He was afraid that something would happen to the Sword God. After all, he was an expert in the One Grotto-heaven realm, and he was even from the Dao Ancestor’s courtyard.
Jiang Che continued, “Didn’t an earthquake happen earlier? It turns out it did not only happen in Great Jing. Every dynasty with a dragon vein had experienced an earthquake as well. Although it was very weak and the impact was not huge, I still feel that something is amiss.”
Jiang Changsheng caught sight of the Sword God and frowned. “This matter concerns the dragon vein, so we have to pay more attention.”
Hearing what the Dao Ancestor said, Jiang Che nodded and decided to go back and ask the luck department to carefully observe the situation of the dragon vein through the pathway of luck.
At the same time.
Far away on an island on the other side of the East Sea, a mountain peak seemed to have been cut in half. On the top of the mountain was a flat land with dozens of stone pillars standing on it. Martial artists were tied up in chains on every stone pillar, including the Sword God.
The Sword God’s hair was disheveled and his body was covered with dried blood stains. He lowered his head and remained motionless.
The other martial artists were also in a miserable state. And no one spoke, as if they were all dead.
Fortunately, the Sword God’s reincarnation mark was still on him, which meant that he was still alive.
Jiang Changsheng’s gaze landed on a figure in the center of the mountain peak. It was a man in black who was currently meditating with wooden swords floating around him.
“What does he want to do?”
Jiang Changsheng was surprised and calculated how strong the other party was.
He was not very strong. He was only in the Three Grotto-heaven realm..
