Everyone looked at the Sword Master in silence as he revealed the truth. They were not too shocked this time. They only lamented about the Dao Ancestor’s remarkable abilities.
After a while.
Before Jiang Changsheng could ask the Sword Master to write down his martial arts techniques, the Sword Master could no longer hold on and died.
His internal organs had been smashed. If not for his high realm, even the Rejuvenation spell would not have been able to keep him alive.
Jiang Changsheng used his spiritual energy to turn into flames and burn the Sword Master’s corpse.
There were already many corpses of Grotto-heaven realm experts in the palace, but there was no result. Because of this, Emperor Shuntian had stopped his research when he was still alive, so there was no point in keeping them.
“In the Sacred Dynasty, those who can be conferred the title of War God must be at least in the Nine Grotto-heaven realm, but if that is the case, it is probably very difficult to invite them,” Ji Wujun said. As the princess of the Sacred Dynasty, she knew the Sacred Dynasty best.
The words ‘Nine Grotto-heaven’ made everyone’s eyelids twitch.
Jiang Jian asked, “Why? With so many forces working together to fork out resources, the amount of martial arts resources gathered together is unimaginable. It will definitely allow the other party to be tempted.”
Ji Wujun shook her head and said, “They have resources, and so do the War
Gods of the Sacred Dynasty. What’s more, the world is in turmoil right now. After the Sacred Dynasty split up, the War Gods must have occupied one side each. How could they have the time to help the weak? Moreover, without knowing the strength of the Dao Ancestor, they won’t dare to act rashly. After all, their horizons are higher. Just by listening to the rumors about the Dao Ancestor, they know that the Dao Ancestor is not someone ordinary Nine
Grotto-heaven realm experts can compare to, or even surpass.”
“In any case, I can’t think of anything that can attract the War God to challenge the unfathomable Dao Ancestor.
Ye Xun smiled and said, “There will always be people courting death, and there will always be people who are arrogant. I am the latter.”
Back then, he knew that the Dao Ancestor was very strong, but he still came.
This was the temperament of a martial artist. They would be more excited to encounter an existence that might be stronger than them.
Ji Wujun wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she chose to remain silent.
At that moment, the Sword Master’s corpse had been burnt to ashes and Jiang Changsheng walked towards his room.
A notification appeared before his eyes.
“In the 2nd year of the Taihe Era, the Sword Master wanted to seize the Sword God’s Sacred Martial Sword Intent. You stopped him in time and cut off a karmic connection to obtain a survival reward—Ultimate Immortal Technique, ‘Soul Sense Divine Sword’.”
The Sword Master’s sword technique?
Interesting!
Jiang Changsheng had high expectations for the Soul Sense Divine Sword. It was not simple to be attached with the word ‘soul’.
He walked into his room and closed the door. Then, he sat on the bed and inherited the Soul Sense Divine Sword.
Ye Xun could not help but ask, “What ultimate technique was that blue figure? Have you seen it before?”
He looked at Bai Qi. Bai Qi had been with Jiang Changsheng for the longest time, and she never left the mountain.
Bai Qi shook her head. Jiang Jian was also curious.
They all then shifted their gazes to the Sword God. Bai Qi urged, “Tell us what happened. That guy’s body was pierced through just now. The battle must have been intense, right?”
The Sword God had a strange expression on his face. “How should I put it? It was indeed intense, but it was one-sided.”
He described the previous battle and everyone sighed with emotion. The Dao Ancestor was really unfathomable.
“Snatching the sword intents of swordsmen? Such a martial arts technique has actually been spread to the sea. Tsk tsk, this is a forbidden martial art of the Sacred Dynasty.”
Ji Wujun raised her eyebrows, but when she thought that the Sacred Dynasty had fallen, she suddenly felt bored.
Ye Xun patted the Sword God on the shoulder and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to be so popular. However, it’s too embarrassing. You actually need the Dao Ancestor to personally take action. Train well and strive to reach the
Two Grotto-heaven realm as soon as possible.”
The Sword God glared at him, but he was powerless to refute.
Jiang Jian walked to Ping’an and said, “Senior Uncle, it’s time to train. We have to reach the Universe realm as soon as possible.”
Even though Ping’an’s intellect was low, he still listened to Jiang Jian. He chuckled, let go of Hei Tian, and began to train.
Two days later, Jiang Changsheng walked out of the house and came to the Earth Spirit Tree to cultivate.
For the next period of time, the Sword God personally paid a visit to Jiang Che. He stated that he no longer wanted to stay in the East Continent and wanted to stay at Longqi Mountain to train.
Even though Jiang Che was reluctant, he could only agree. After all, he was his ancestor’s people.
As for the Sword God’s sect in the East Continent, he was willing to hand it over to Jiang Che, which made him happy. The Sword God’s sect had a high status in the East Continent, and Great Jing could use this sect to control the martial arts world of the East Continent and prevent any rebellious forces from appearing.
Just like that, the Sword God returned to the courtyard to train.
The Sword God, Ye Xun, Bai Qi, Huang Tian, Hei Tian, Jiang Jian, Ping’an, Ji Wujun, and Yang Zhou, who would occasionally visit, filled the courtyard with vitality.
In the past, Jiang Changsheng liked peace and quiet. Now, he liked his surroundings to be noisy, as it made time seem slow.
Days passed.
Year 3 of the Taihe Era.
Earthquakes happened one after another in all parts of the world. The thirteen prefectures encountered them twice in a year. The commotion was not huge and there were not many casualties. It was as if the earth was taking a nap.
Jiang Che visited Jiang Changsheng again and said, “Earthquakes are still happening in the dynasties with dragon veins. Dao Ancestor, I feel that something is amiss. The luck department has observed the luck but failed to find the reason. Just by observing luck, we can’t see anything.”
It was precisely because he was helpless that he could only look for Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng recalled the legends he had heard about the Dragon Vein Continent. There might be a mysterious demon beast hidden under the dragon veins, which was also the reason why the Limitless Sea Alliance had risked their lives to come to Great Jing.
However, every time he calculated the reason behing the earthquake, the amount of incense points he needed to burn was the net worth the Great Jing. He could not bear to spend so much incense points. If the sky collapsed, he could just use the Dao World to transport the citizens of Great Jing away and find another continent to survive. However, if they were to leave, Great Jing’s luck would be scattered and it would destroy 181 years of foundation.
Jiang Changsheng did not say anything. Instead, his soul left his body and snuck underground.
He came to the cave where the Dragon Vein Stone Tablet was located and his soul continued to use the Five Elements Evasion Technique to burrow down.
Soon, he felt a force stopping him from moving forward.
This force was not too strong. If he used his full strength, he could easily break through it. However, once he did that, the seal on the dragon vein would be broken.
He stopped at the ground and found that even his spiritual will was isolated. He could only listen quietly.
He heard the sound of a river flowing and was secretly puzzled. Could there be a vast river under the dragon vein?
The sound of the water was not soft.
After a while, his soul returned to his body.
At that moment, Jiang Che was still in a discussion with the crowd, mainly to ask Ji Wujun since Sacred Dynasty must have the deepest understanding of luck.
Ji Wujun said, “The seal of the dragon vein was indeed done by the Sacred Dynasty to suppress the world-shocking giant demons thousands of years ago. Those giant demons have reached the point where their bodies are indestructible, and their flesh and blood can allow ordinary demon beasts to transform. In other words, even if they die, they can help the demons to rise. The Sacred Dynasty can’t do anything to them and can only seal their broken bodies. There are nine dragon veins in this continent, and it seems like they are suppressing very powerful demon beasts. Right now, the luck of the demons has increased greatly. Perhaps the broken bodies of the demon beasts have received a message and caused the earthquakes. In any case, you cannot touch the dragon veins.”
Jiang Che frowned and asked, “Will everything be fine if we don’t touch it?”
Ji Wujun shook his head and said, “How would I know? In any case, if you forcefully break the seal, this continent will certainly collapse.”
She did not know everything, and she only knew a little about the dragon veins.
Hearing this, Jiang Che’s heart sank to the bottom of the cliff.
Even though Great Jing had set its foot into the ocean, how many citizens would die if the continent collapsed?
He could not afford it!
Jiang Changsheng said, “Go back. Some things are beyond your control. Just govern the land in peace.”
Jiang Che took a deep breath, bowed respectfully to Jiang Changsheng, and then left.
Bai Qi said happily, “If it really collapses, will we live on the sea in the future?” Jiang Jian glared at it and said angrily, “There are more demon beasts in the sea than on land.”
Ji Wujun said worriedly, “This is indeed an ominous sign. Could it be that the demons suppressed by the Sacred Dynasty are about to escape?”
Even though the Sacred Dynasty was gone, as a member of the imperial family, she hoped that the human race could survive.
Mountains undulated and scarlet clouds filled the sky.
On a cliff, a white-robed man sat facing the setting sun with many huge demon beasts hovering above his head.
A figure descended from the sky and landed behind him. It was a mysterious man wearing a white bone mask.
The masked man half-knelt and said, “Reporting to the Lord, the dragon vein seal suppressing the Seven Great Demon Saints has begun to riot as you predicted. Before long, the bodies of the Seven Great Demon Saints will break out.”
Hearing this, the white-robed man opened his eyes and asked, “How far is the nearest dragon vein from the demon tide?”
“I’m afraid it will take decades.
The masked man answered in an indifferent tone without the slightest fluctuation of emotion.
The white-robed man looked up at the setting sun and sighed. “Once the dragon veins are broken, countless people will die. However, this matter cannot be stopped.”
The masked man did not reply.
The white-robed man looked at the horizon and fell into deep thought. After a while.
“Tell him about this and let him prepare for action, ” the white-robed man seemed to have made up his mind and said in a deep voice.
The masked man looked up, and his eyes under the white bone mask were filled with unwillingness. He gritted his teeth and said, “My lord, he is a reincarnated person. Is he really trustworthy?”
The white-robed man said, “The world has collapsed. The human race can only rely on him to resist the demons until the next Martial Emperor arrives.”
“But… ”
“Alright, go ahead!”
The white-robed man’s tone became heavier, scaring the masked man so much that he did not dare to say anything else. In the end, he stood up and left.
He was the only one left on the cliff.
His eyes were filled with confusion as he muttered, “Your Majesty, when will the destined one appear…”
September.
In Donglin Province of Great Jing, the boundless mountain forest seemed magnificent and peaceful. A piece of the mountain forest suddenly collapsed and dust flew up, forming a bottomless pit. Not long after, surging seawater surged out from the ground like a fountain, rising to a thousand feet high and spilling into the mountain forest.
Not only in Donglin Province, but mysterious huge pits also appeared one after another in various parts of the continent. Seawater surged out and the nearby villages were directly washed down.
Capital.
Longqi Mountain, in the courtyard.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes. Soon after, a loud noise came from afar, startling the others into opening their eyes. “What’s going on? Is there an enemy attack?”
Bai Qi carefully asked.
Ye Xun frowned and said, “Great Jing’s luck is in a mess. It’s abnormally chaotic.”
Ji Wujun suddenly got up and disappeared.
Jiang Changsheng began to look in the direction of the loud noise. He saw a huge water pillar appearing in the mountains outside the Si Province, emerging from a mysterious cave..
