Jiang Changsheng returned to Longqi Mountain with the baby in his arms. An earth-shattering commotion broke out in Jingcheng, and the thunderclouds that shrouded the city began to disperse.
Everyone surrounded him and sized up the baby boy in his arms. He looked no different from an ordinary baby boy, except that he had an additional eye on his forehead.
“Eh? He is the same as Jiang Jian.”
Bai Qi said in surprise. The others were surprised. Jiang Jian’s talent was outstanding, especially his vertical eye. It could help him suppress luck and help him continuously temper his body.
This child possessed the bloodline of nearly a hundred ferocious beasts and had even inherited a third eye. How terrifying was his talent?
“One Grotto-heaven realm…”
Ji Wujun stared at the baby boy and muttered to herself, which made everyone come back to their senses.
Bai Qi widened her wolf eyes. White Dragon and Golden Crow were stunned while Huang Tian cursed.
Tai Wa stared at the baby boy thoughtfully. Tai Xi was the calmest. He never liked to let his imagination run wild.
This baby was in the One Grotto-heaven realm!
Thinking about it carefully, it was normal. During the ten years he was conceived, he had absorbed all of Jiang Che’s true qi and enjoyed the countless medicinal pills provided by Jiang Changsheng. When he was born, he absorbed a huge amount of martial arts spiritual energy and stood at the ultimate goal that most mortals could not reach.
Jiang Changsheng stared at the baby boy in his arms and whispered, “Let’s call him Tianming from now on, Jiang Tianming.”
The ‘Tian’ generation actually belonged to this child’s grandfather, but he would follow Jiang Changsheng in the future and not live with the Jiang Family. Why should he care about those common customs?
Furthermore, he was their ancestor. He could do whatever he wanted.
“Tianming…”
Ji Wujun’s eyes brightened as she read out the two words.
She was suddenly enlightened!
So that was it!
The Dao Ancestor was not a Martial Emperor, but an immortal god that looked down on all races. However, his son could be a Martial Emperor!
Jiang Tianming was the one who could overshadow all the martial artists in the world with his talent!
Since he was born in the Grotto-heaven realm, how strong would he be in the future?
Perhaps there was an ancient Martial Emperor who was in the Grotto-heaven realm the moment he was born like Jiang Tianming, but there was no such record in the Sacred Dynasty. No Martial Emperor for twenty thousand years had such exaggerated talent!
“Tianming? That’s a good name!”
“Hahaha, it’s just a mess of seniority.”
“In any case, in another hundred years, his seniority will not be so important.
Only Jiang Jian will be higher than him.”
“What a good name. Taihe has a good son. Unfortunately, Zhaozong did not see him.”
“If Jiang Qing knew, wouldn’t he be even angrier?”
Everyone discussed among themselves. Jiang Changsheng handed Jiang Tianming to Bai Qi, who immediately caught him with her claws.
After reconstructing his body, Jiang Tianming’s hands were similar to ordinary people. However, his physique had changed and the strength of his blood and qi was comparable to ferocious beasts.
Tai Wa seemed to be very interested in Jiang Tianming and went over to hug him, which made Bai Qi breathe a sigh of relief.
This kid was stronger than her, so how could she not feel pressured?
Fortunately, Jiang Tianming was sound asleep and looked obedient and adorable. It was hard to associate him with the shadow of the demon that shrouded Jingcheng.
Jiang Changsheng waved his sleeve and walked out of the courtyard alone. Even though the others were curious, they did not dare to ask further.
As he walked, a line of words appeared before his eyes.
“In the 12th year of the Yanyuan Era, a demon with a special bloodline, Jiang Tianming, was born and wreaked havoc in Jingcheng. Fortunately, you took action in time and the citizens of Jingcheng survived through it safely. You survived Jiang Tianming’s attack and survived a calamity. You received a survival reward—Magical Treasure, ‘Demon Subduing Pole’.”
Demon?
That was true. Although Jiang Tianming looked like a human, he was in fact not a human. It was impossible to define his race. He could only be defined as a demon.
Previously, when Jiang Tianming went crazy, he displayed many ferocious beast talents, including the talent of a lucky species, causing the luck of heaven and earth to surge. The pressure that erupted was absolutely not something ordinary Grotto-heaven realm experts could compare to.
Tsk tsk, he did not expect this kid to bring him a huge gift the moment he was born.
Jiang Changsheng already had many magical treasures, but he would not complain about having too many.
As the Dao Ancestor, he must have countless magical weapons. The more, the better. In the future, when he really established the Immortal Dao, he could learn from the Dao Ancestor of the Three Pure Ones in Chinese myths and lend his treasures to his disciples for them to run wild in the world.
For example, in Journey to the West, any demon with a powerful background would hold a magical weapon with the backing of an immortal, making those immortals look extremely powerful.
Of course, even if he were to do that, he would not allow his disciple to commit evil.
As Jiang Changsheng pondered, he arrived at the Jade Bone Green Bamboo Forest.
He released Jiang Che and Concubine Yu. The two souls landed in front of him and slowly opened their eyes.
The moment they saw Jiang Changsheng, they were stunned. They hurriedly bowed and looked at each other in shock.
“I… I’m not dead?”
Jiang Che was surprised. He immediately became excited and subconsciously wanted to hug Concubine Yu. However, his hands passed through her soul and his soul immediately froze.
Concubine Yu could not tell what was going on and became nervous.
Jiang Changsheng said, “You are already dead. You are now in your soul state.”
As soon as he said that, Jiang Che was silent and stopped.
Concubine Yu looked at Jiang Changsheng and carefully asked, “Dao Ancestor, my child…’
“He has been successfully born and will follow me in the future. I have already given him a name, Tianming.”
Jiang Changsheng said calmly, and Concubine Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Che pondered over that name. It was enough to show how much the Dao Ancestor valued his child.
Tianming…
Jiang Changsheng said, “I’ll give you two choices. One is to reincarnate, and the other is to enter Hell and become a ghost servant. After you reincarnate, it’s hard to say if you can meet again. If you become a ghost servant in Hell, you won’t be able to reincarnate, but you can still stay together in Hell and see each other every day.”
Hearing this, Concubine Yu hastily said, “I am willing to be a ghost servant!” She looked at Jiang Che and kept winking at him.
Jiang Che cautiously asked, “Other than being unable to reincarnate, is there any other price?”
Hell did not sound like a good place to go.
Jiang Changsheng said, “Hell dominates the cycle of reincarnation in Skyview Land. It is the home of the dead. As for the other costs, it will naturally be eternally boring. ”
Concubine Yu persuaded, “Would the ancestor harm us? Hurry up and agree. Don’t tell me His Majesty doesn’t want to be with me forever?”
Jiang Che forced a smile and said, “I’ll go to Hell. I just want to know more.” “After you become ghost servants, you can also return to the surface in the future to see your son.”
Jiang Changsheng’s words made them even happier.
Then, they proposed to visit Jiang Tianming, and he agreed.
The two souls immediately walked towards the courtyard while Jiang Changsheng waited.
Even someone as powerful as Ji Wujun could not pry into souls. Souls who could be seen in the world were all evil spirits that had left the soul state. They belonged to the category of anomalies that could not reincarnate or transcend.
Jiang Changsheng began to inherit the memories of the Demon-subduing Pole.
The Demon-subduing Pole was a magical treasure that specialized in subduing demons. However, it did not mean it could only subdue demons. Anyone with karma could be subdued by the Demon-subduing Pole. The greater the karma, the stronger the effect.
Karma was the result of the karma of killing. The more you killed, the more karma the victim would add onto the murderer, forming karma. It was a definition of karma by immortal cultivators. Some magical treasures or cultivation methods could even be strengthened by karma. That kind of cultivation path was against the heavenly law and was easy to suffer divine retribution.
Not bad.
Even though it could not be compared to the Sun Shooting Divine Bow or the Golden Scale Treasure Tree, it still had some special uses.
After the time for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Che returned with the reluctant Concubine Yu. Jiang Changsheng waved his sleeve and sent them into Hell before asking the Head of Punishment to receive them.
When they arrived in front of Hell and looked at the long line of souls, Jiang Che and Concubine Yu were shocked. So the netherworld really existed.
At first, they were apprehensive. In the face of unknown responsibilities, they were naturally worried.
They wondered if it was easy to be a ghost servant.
When they arrived at Hell, they were immediately stunned when they saw a familiar figure.
“Your Majesty, long time no see.”
Zhang Ying bowed with a smile. After changing into his ghost servant uniform, he had a different kind of dignity that made Concubine Yu nervous.
Jiang Che asked in surprise, “Why are you here? Did the Dao Ancestor recommend you to come here?”
Zhang Ying smiled and said, “That’s right. Let’s go in and meet the Lord of Hell first. I’ll tell you slowly.”
He turned sideways and motioned for Jiang Che and Concubine Yu to enter. Under the curious, furious, and confused gazes of the surrounding souls, the two of them walked into Hell.
“May I ask who the Lord of Hell is and how is his relationship with the Dao Ancestor?” Jiang Che asked in a low voice.
Zhang Ying smiled and said, “The Lord of Hell is an acquaintance. Your Majesty, don’t worry. Hell was created by the Dao Ancestor.”
Hearing this, Jiang Che was shocked.
Concubine Yu also widened her beautiful eyes.
When Zhang Ying saw the change in their expressions, he was secretly delighted. When he first came to Hell, he was also shocked. Now that he saw someone else’s expression, he was rather excited.
After a while.
Under Zhang Ying’s lead, Jiang Che and Concubine Yu met the Lord of Hell.
Jiang Che looked at that dignified figure and felt that he looked familiar. The Head of Punishment smiled and said, “Your Majesty, long time no see.”
Jiang Che was moved and said in pleasant surprise, “Head of Punishment!”
The Head of Punishment had assisted the emperors of the Jiang Family for many generations, and Jiang Che had grown up under his protection. Naturally, their friendship was not ordinary.
He never expected that the Lord of Hell was the Head of Punishment!
Jiang Changsheng spent an entire night refining the restriction in the Demon-subduing Pole. The Demon-subduing Pole was golden in color, with a triangular awl at the bottom and an exquisite and gorgeous top. It looked as if a Buddha was sitting cross-legged and holding the Demon-subduing Pole like a thick dagger.
After playing with it for a while, he threw the Demon-subduing Pole into the Giant Spirit Ring and walked out of the house.
In the next few days, the news of the birth of the Son of God spread throughout the land, including the death of Jiang Che and Concubine Yu. The people was in a heated discussion with all kinds of speculations.
When Emperor Jiang Liu heard of this, he sent the White-robed Guards to collect Jiang Che’s corpse.
That month, Jiang Liu announced to the world that he would send Jiang Che to the Ancestral Temple under the posthumous name of Mingzong.
During the reign of Emperor Mingzong, Great Jing was so powerful that it unified the Dragon Vein Continent, opening up an unprecedented flourishing era of martial arts. Naturally, his achievements would not be low. Even though he had the credit of the Dao Ancestor behind him, it was also his credit that he could make good use of this relationship.
In a sense, Jiang Che’s contribution was not inferior to that of the previous Jing emperors. However, the dynasty did not encounter too many calamities during his reign, making his achievements difficult to compare with the achievements of Taizong and Tianzong. Of course, this was only the opinion of the current generation. The status of his achievements would be determined by future generations.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng watched as Bai Qi, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian chased after Jiang Tianming who was flying around wantonly. He began to calculate the experts nearby. This was already his habit.
“How powerful is the strongest expert beside me within the area humans of Great Jing had set foot on?”
This question covered many places in the Great Wilderness, and the area where the humans of Great Jing had explored was very large.
