Chapter 148: Da Yi’s World-Destroying Archery, Number One Force in the World
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Changsheng’s arrow destroyed the two sects’ bases along the coast of the Donghai Dynasty into a bay and wiped out all the martial artists who stayed there. Even though it was not a total annihilation, it had at least caused the Thousand South Ocean Sect and the Luo Sect to suffer heavy losses and their vitality was greatly damaged. It was impossible for them to make a comeback in the future.
Even though he wanted to receive a survival reward from them, he had to keep his enemies under control. He should kill those who made enemies with him to prevent them from plotting against him. Moreover, as long as he did not reveal his full strength, every once in a while there would be someone who thought they could challenge him.
In fact, his deterrence was already strong enough. After living for more than a hundred years, excluding those who were about to die and wanted to die, the number of battles he had encountered could be counted on one hand.
Just like the number one force in Tianhai, the number of incense points had dropped by more than 30,000. Even if they were the absolute overlord, they would still be challenged and attacked. Therefore, he did not have to worry about acting too ruthless. From now on, no one would dare to challenge him, and this was the case after he had reserved his strength. So far, no one had forced him to fight with all his might.
He hoped that there would not be any in the future.
Once he encountered someone like that, it meant that he was not hidden anymore, which did not conform to his rules of survival.
Jiang Changsheng turned around and flew towards the palace. After throwing the five Grotto-heaven realm corpses into the palace, he quickly returned to
Longqi Mountain and kept the Sun Shooting Divine Bow into his Giant Spirit Ring.
After landing on the ground, Bai Qi and the Sword God immediately came over. Bai Qi chattered non-stop and was very excited. The Sword God looked at him with respect.
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “Train well. You can do it in the future.’
With that said, he ignored Bai Qi’s pestering and walked into the house. He began to wait for the survival reward.
Bai Qi found the Sword God and asked him to teach him the Sword Dao.
The Sword God had the same thoughts. This battle had allowed him to gain some insights. Through the process of imparting the Sword Dao, he could also sort out his Sword Dao and find the illusory opportunity to break through.
At the same time, the entire capital was in an uproar as everyone was excited.
Zhang Ying and Yu Yanyi were glad that they had befriended the Dao Ancestor in advance. Song Li was also excited. His judgment was right. Fortunately, he had relied on Great Jing in time.
Emperor Shuntian was the most excited. Compared to the previous battle with the Human King, the Dao Ancestor’s performance this time was even more shocking. In Emperor Shuntian’s heart, the Dao Ancestor was already a symbol of invincibility.
With such an invincible ancestor presiding over the world, how could Great Jing not unify the continent?
Next, what he had to do was to fight steadily. He could not make any mistakes that would lead to chaos.
“4th year of the Shuntian Era. Blood Moon Ancestor, Tian Renfeng, Tang Hongyi, Wang Shi, and Zheng Liuyuan attacked with the intention of joining hands to kill you. You successfully survived their encirclement and survived a calamity to obtain a survival reward—Ultimate Cultivation Technique, Da Yi World Piercing Arrow.”
“Four years in Shuntian. The Thousand South Ocean Sect and the Luo Sect wanted to join hands to assist the Donghai Dynasty in engulfing Great Jing. You took action in time and destroyed the elites of the two sects. You survived the calamity and obtained a survival reward—Magical Treasure ‘Golden-scaled Jade Leaf’ x3.”
Two consecutive notifications appeared in front of Jiang Changsheng, making him frown.
He now had nine Golden-scaled Jade Leaves, and the more, the better!
But this Da Yi World Piercing Arrow surprised him.
His archery skills were purely based on the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth and the Sun Shooting Divine Bow. Previously, he relied on his high strength to fight against some waste. There was no technical skills involved. Now that he had an additional set of archery skills, he could definitely allow the Sun Shooting Divine Bow to unleash greater power.
The strength of an Immortal Cultivator was not only based on their own strength, but also on their magical treasures. Therefore, Jiang Changsheng’s real combat strength was not as simple as incense points indicated.
This was not only the case for Immortal Cultivators, but also on those continents where martial arts were at its peak. Just like what Mu Lingluo mentioned, Lin Haotian had obtained a divine weapon to kill enemies across realms.
Jiang Changsheng began to inherit the Da Yi World Piercing Arrow.
A huge amount of memories surged into his mind, causing his consciousness to fall into a mysterious state.
After a long time, Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and revealed a stunned expression.
As expected of the survival reward brought by five Grotto-heaven realm experts. It was indeed domineering!
The Da Yi World Piercing Arrow contained the profundity of laws, as it could cross space and time. It was not as simple as ordinary archery. From the inherited memories, he might not be able to completely master the Da Yi World Piercing Arrow. To do so, he had to reach a stronger realm first. Of course, even if he only mastered the first few moves, it was enough.
Awesome!
The survival reward was not only determined by the enemy’s realm, but also by the threat the predicament posed to oneself. If Jiang Changsheng did not resist, the five Grotto-heaven realm experts could still beat him to death.
The Da Yi World Piercing Arrow had exceeded his current realm and was enough for him to enjoy for a long time. It could even become one of his strongest moves.
Jiang Changsheng first received the mental cultivation method. This special archery method was not only about pure archery, but also a circulation method. It required time to cultivate.
The news of the Dao Ancestor killing five Grotto-heaven realm experts quickly spread throughout the continent.
Zhang Ying also used the Ten Thousand Mile Condor to send this matter back to Tianhai.
This battle would definitely shock the overseas forces. For a long time, probably no one would dare to challenge the Dao Ancestor or harm the Si Province.
Jiang Changsheng trained in the day and went to the seaside of Great Jing at night to train his arrows in the ocean. He wanted to silently become stronger so that if an expert in the Three Grotto-heaven realm appeared, the other party might think that he had a chance of killing him. In fact, according to the incense points, he had surpassed the Three Grotto-heaven realm. Coupled with his magical treasures and ultimate immortal techniques, he did not dare to imagine how strong he was.
Even so, he could not be conceited. He had to treat every opponent seriously and calculate the enemies that might appear in advance.
Only then could he fight with confidence!
In the blink of an eye.
Half a year passed by.
Something big happened in the capital. The Human King passed away, and Emperor Shuntian buried him. He announced to the continent that he would be the Emperor’s tutor.
Jiang Changsheng stood by the cliff and silently watched this scene.
The true qi of Emperor Shuntian, who had been transferred by the Human King, was incomparably powerful. Even ordinary Universe realm experts could not compare to him, but it was not comparable to a Grotto-heaven realm expert. It seemed like a portion of the Human King’s strength must have been lost. Furthermore, Emperor Shuntian’s physical body was not considered powerful. He wondered how the Human King would impart his strength, but he had actually succeeded.
Jiang Changsheng stared at Emperor Shuntian and observed him. He discovered that there were two different strands of luck surrounding him.
Instead of resisting each other, there was the profundity of Tai Chi integration. The two strands of luck supported each other and helped him suppress the surging true qi in his body.
The method of luck was very exquisite.
Jiang Changsheng lamented in his heart, but he was not interested in luck.
He only believed in his strength and did not want to rely on luck.
Just like a Luck Dynasty, luck would lead to the prosperity of martial arts, but if luck was cut off, the martial arts of the land would inevitably collapse. According to this inference, once those martial artists who relied on luck to become stronger lost their luck, it was difficult for them to improve. It was even possible that their blood and qi would be chaotic and they would go berserk.
After watching for a while, Jiang Changsheng turned around and returned to the courtyard.
Bai Qi was currently sparring with Huang Tian and Hei Tian. She slapped each cat with her claws and made them cry out non-stop. As for the Sword God, he was probably annoyed and did not stay in the courtyard.
Jiang Changsheng did not stop them. Instead, he sat on the Earth Spirit Tree and began to meditate.
In half a year, he had already grasped the first three moves of the Da Yi World Piercing Arrow. Now, his strength had increased greatly, but he did not have the chance to give it a try.
He remembered that Mu Lingluo was about to participate in the Saint Mansion Tournament, so he might have the chance to display it. Whether he could succeed or not was another matter. He could give it a try in advance.
In an inn on the west coast of the continent.
Jiang Luo and the Evil Lord were drinking when they heard the discussion of the martial artists at the next table. Both of them were shocked by the content of the conversation.
“Five experts who have surpassed the Universe realm? What realm is that?”
“I’m not sure. When I heard about the Universe realm, I was already surprised. I didn’t expect there to be a higher realm.” “The Dao Ancestor’s strength is unimaginable. How long has he lived?”
“I heard that he’s over a hundred years old.”
“Impossible. A hundred-year-old martial artist who can reach the Golden Body realm is already a genius unless he’s the reincarnation of an immortal.”
Listening to the discussion of the other martial artists, the Evil Lord lamented, “Fortunately, I did not go to Great Jing to absorb people’s strength. Otherwise…
Jiang Luo was a member of the Jiang Family’s imperial family, so he felt it even more deeply. He sighed and said, “He is indeed powerful. Great Jing is really blessed to have his protection.”
This was also the sentiment of everyone on the continent.
The Dao Ancestor was only Jing Taizong’s master, but he had guarded Great Jing for so many years.
If the Dao Ancestor used the Great Jing to exploit the people and martial arts for his own benefit, the continent could still understand. However, so far, they had not heard of the Dao Ancestor having any specific needs. Even Longqi Temple was not very strong.
Such a selfless Dao Ancestor was worshiped by the citizens of Great Jing like an immortal god. It was said that there were many statues of the Dao Ancestor in their homes in order to burn incense and worship him. In the eyes of the citizens, only in this way could they obtain the blessings of the Dao Ancestor.
The Evil Lord said, “As generations of emperors change, the Dao Ancestor probably won’t be able to stay for long. He doesn’t seek luck, martial arts resources, or status. The only relationship he cares about can’t last. When he loses his attachment, he will definitely go overseas to seek a higher martial arts path.”
Jiang Luo did not object to that.
No matter how one looked at it, the Dragon Vein Continent could no longer satisfy the Dao Ancestor.
They had been to Tianhai and knew the development of the nearby continents. Perhaps the Dragon Vein Continent was not the worst, but it was not the best either. It was said that there was an unimaginable holy land of martial arts at the ends of the world.
Once a martial artist encountered a bottleneck, they would definitely think of ways to break through. No matter how strong the Dao Ancestor was, he would encounter such a situation sooner or later. Of course, they could not imagine what realm could make the Dao Ancestor helpless.
The Evil Lord put down his cup and said, “Let’s leave tonight. Xiansheng Grotto-heaven has already left. We can hunt them overseas and become stronger at the same time.”
Jiang Luo nodded and said with a burning gaze, “I can’t be left behind by my ninth brother. I have to surpass him again.”
The Evil Lord said with confidence, “With my cultivation technique, the two of us will definitely surpass the martial arts world of the ocean. One day, we can also challenge the Dao Ancestor and test the strength of the number one under the sky.”
Jiang Luo revealed an excited smile. He admired Jiang Changsheng, but he also wanted to spar with him.
Which martial artist in the world did not want to be number one?
However, he did not know how many years it would take for him to surpass the Universe realm.
At that moment, someone walked into the inn.
This person was wearing a raincoat. He took off his raincoat and revealed a face full of beard. He had a blade of zrass in his mouth as he swept his gaze across everyone in the inn. His gaze landed on the Evil Lord. He walked over and sat opposite the Evil Lord.. With one foot on a stool, he asked casually, “You are the Evil Lord?”
