“There’s no need to accept her as a disciple. I’m used to being idle. Raising a wolf, snake, and cats is already troublesome enough.’
Jiang Changsheng shook his head as waves surged in his heart.
The True Dragon Temple and the Fuyue Family had peerless geniuses that were famous throughout the land, so how could Longqi Temple not have them?
No, one had to be unearthed!
Bai Qi curiously asked, “The reincarnation of an ancient martial artist? Is it true?”
In its opinion, reincarnation was nonsense. Otherwise, how could there be so many evil beings running rampant in the world?
Yu Yanyi turned to look at it and nodded. “It’s true. When she was born, there was a green bird hovering above the Fuyue Family. The moment she was born, she contained powerful Blood Qi. She could even learn all sorts of ancient martial arts techniques in her dreams. Some martial arts techniques are even stronger than the ultimate techniques of the Fuyue Family.” When Jiang Changsheng heard that, his expression was strange.
“Well…
Why did she sound so much like Mu Lingluo?
Could it be that other martial artists also had the ability to visit someone else in their dreams?
Impossible, this was a spell.
Could it be that she was really the reincarnation of an ancient martial artist?
“I want to know if the person Yu Yanyi mentioned is really the reincarnation of an ancient artist?”
[Requires 300 incense points. Do you wish to continue?]
Fortunately, this guy was still young. He could still squander 300 incense points!
Continue!
[Yes.]
This word made Jiang Changsheng squint his eyes.
Could ancient martial artists really retain a portion of their memories after reincarnation?
It seemed that when martial artists were powerful enough to a certain extent, they also had the ability to see through reincarnation.
liang Changsheng thought silently. and his interest was piqued again.
“How powerful was the martial artist before she reincarnated?”
“Unable to deduce. The system has yet to involve the cycle of reincarnation in this martial arts world.”
Too bad.
The system was powerful, but it was not omnipotent. It also needed time to grow.
That was right. If the survival system was absolutely powerful, how could he take advantage of loopholes like this?
Yu Yanyi was still talking about how extraordinary that genius was, and Jiang Changsheng had also silently memorized her name.
Yu Qingyuan.
An hour later, Yu Yanyi left.
Jiang Changsheng continued to cultivate.
The matter of unearthing the strongest talent for Longqi Temple could be put aside for the time being. He had to break through first.
At that time, he would directly use the incense calculation to search for the strongest talent on the continent. Then, he would bring that person to Longqi
Temple and nurture him into the face of Longqi Temple. What Zhou Jue? What Yu Qingyuan? He would be trampled under his feet sooner or later!
Jiang Changsheng smiled as he thought of a wonderful idea.
Bai Qi began to educate Huang Tian and Hei Tian, urging them to train well and grow up as soon as possible.
Ninth year of the Shuntian Era!
The world was like a tide. All the coastal states received appropriations from the imperial court, and a large number of soldiers were dispatched to transform into a navy. The Emperor even issued an edict to the public to recruit True Gods. By joining, not only did they have the chance to advance to a noble, but they could also enter the True Martial Pavilion to obtain ultimate techniques. Those who contributed could even obtain rare treasures from the state treasury to help their martial arts realm increase by another realm.
No one knew how many True Gods there were in Great Jing due to its huge territory. Moreover, there were still martial artists from overseas.
Even True Gods found it hard to refuse the court. Great Jing was a prosperous country, and rare treasures everywhere would be confiscated by the court. The Emperor had also specially opened up many herb gardens for natural treasures to be cultivated.
Most martial artists had limited talent and had no choice but to rely on external items. In a short span of three months, forty True Gods had entered the palace. After they received orders, they would head towards the southern port and listen to the arrangements of Song Li, the Governor of the Sea.
When Song Li heard the news, he was over the moon and his mentality began to swell. However, the good times did not last long. With the arrival of two generals, he had no choice but to restrain himself and continue to be careful.
The two generals were Jiang Jian and Ping’an.
Song Li was naturally afraid of these two people. Their greatest achievement was that they joined hands to destroy the Hongxuan Dynasty. They were publicly recognized as two godly generals and were admired by everyone.
Only then did Song Li realize that an emperor’s heart was as deep as the sea. He had to be careful with Emperor Shuntian in the future.
Jiang Jian and Ping’an were there to assist Song Li, but everyone knew that they had the highest status in the harbor.
It was August.
He was about to break through.
He was hesitating if he should leave the capital to break through. He was afraid that the heavenly might would be too terrifying and affect the capital.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to stay in the capital for two reasons. The first reason was that it was too dangerous overseas. God knows if suddenly insanely strong martial artists might appear. The second reason was that it was a good opportunity to intimidate the martial artists from various forces and make them behave in the capital.
He took a deep breath and decided to start his breakthrough tomorrow!
He stood up and began to stretch his muscles to cheer himself up.
He checked the incense points.
[Current incense points: 21,920,971] 20 million incense points should be enough!
Jiang Changsheng relaxed.
The Sword God looked at him and carefully pondered over his movements. It looked simple and even a little ridiculous, but it inexplicably made him feel that there was something hidden.
The Dao Ancestor would not do something meaningless for no reason.
He had seen this set of actions several times, which meant that the Dao
Ancestor attached great importance to it.
Jiang Changsheng did not know what the Sword God was thinking. He did not need to stretch his muscles at all. He was just maintaining his habits.
He had always maintained some habits from his previous life, fearing that he would forget his origins after so many years.
It was precisely because he maintained the memories of his previous life that his state of mind could not integrate into this world. It was not until he had a child that his condition improved.
The sun set and the moon rose.
The night star was dazzling.
Jiang Changsheng sent a dream to Mu Lingluo and the two of them chatted a
lot. Mu Lingluo realized that it was rare for him to talk so much and felt that something was amiss. However, she knew that she could not help him and could only listen obediently.
A night later.
The sun rose from the east.
Jiang Changsheng stood up and woke up Bai Qi who was leaning against his leg.
Before Bai Qi could wake up, he leaped up and disappeared into the fog.
On the eaves, the Sword God who was comprehending the sword opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Changsheng in surprise, not understanding what he was doing.
Jiang Changsheng flew as far away from the capital as possible.
In the capital.
In the guest room of the inn, two martial artists were sitting at the table drinking tea with two swords on the table.
One of the yellow-robed swordsmen said, “We’ve been here for so long. Let’s go up the mountain today. We should go up and take a look. Otherwise, we would have come for nothing.”
Another person forced a smile and said, “We already know that the swordsman who stepped into the Sacred Martial Sword Realm is the Sword God. If we want to take the Sword God away, we have to convince the Dao Ancestor. How can we persuade him? That Dao Ancestor has killed countless experts and does not care about other people’s identities. He is unscrupulous.”
Hearing this, the yellow-robed swordsman was silent.
The Dao Ancestor was a god of protection for the people of Great Jing. For outsiders, he was the most terrifying existence in the world, especially martial artists with ulterior motives like them.
However, they were sent here with a mission. If they were to return empty-handed like this, they would be punished.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed.
Before they came here, they did not care about the Dragon Vein Continent at all. But after they came here, they were shocked.
There was actually such a terrifying expert hidden in such a barbaric place!
Unless the Sword Master came personally, it was impossible for them to take the Sword God away.
The yellow-robed man said, “We can only use our wits to attract the Sword God with our powerful swordsmanship. As a swordsman, he should be tempted.”
Another person sighed again. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a commotion downstairs.
“The Dao Ancestor is transcending the tribulation! The Dao Ancestor has begun to transcend the tribulation!”
A boy’s voice came from the street. His tone was unusually excited and sounded extremely ear-piercing in the morning.
The two of them looked at each other and immediately climbed over the window and came to the eaves of the inn. They were not the only ones. More and more martial artists leaped onto the eaves. As far as the eye could see, houses in all directions had people climbing up the roofs. The scene was rather spectacular.
Rumble—
A dull thunderclap sounded, and the capital that was originally brightening began to fall into darkness again.
Emperor Shuntian, who was hugging his concubines to sleep, also hastily put on his robes and walked out of the bedroom.
As he tidied his robes, he looked up. The entire capital was shrouded in surging dark clouds.
The dark clouds were extremely high, making everyone in the city feel insignificant.
They could not see the Dao Ancestor. They could only see tiny bolts of lightning shining.
Martial artists with higher realms could tell that the lightning was not small, but that it was just too far from the ground.
Some brave True Gods flew into the sky to join in the fun.
Boom—
A huge bolt of lightning appeared, a hundred times larger than the previous one. It illuminated everyone’s faces and shocked countless people until they trembled.
In the courtyard.
The Sword God was moved and muttered, “He wants to break through too?”
How long had it been since he broke through? Now, the Dao Ancestor had also broken through..
Bai Qi came to his side and muttered, “Have you noticed? The Dao Ancestor’s breakthrough is different from ours. There is no lightning tribulation for our breakthrough. Moreover, the luck of heaven and earth does not surge towards the Dao Ancestor.”
The Sword God had a complicated expression and said, “This means that the Dao Ancestor does not rely on luck. His talent is extremely terrifying, causing him to not need external help until now. It is precisely because of his talent that the Heavenly Dao could not tolerate it and sent the lightning tribulation.”
Bai Qi felt that what he said made sense. He secretly prayed that the Dao Ancestor would succeed.
She had already made up her mind to follow Jiang Changsheng for the rest of her life, so she did not want him to fall under the lightning tribulation.
Reason told her that the Dao Ancestor would definitely succeed. Even if such an expert were to die, he would die in a world-shocking battle. How could he die under the heavens?
High up in the sky.
Jiang Changsheng sat there as his robe fluttered.
He looked up at the thundercloud and swallowed his saliva.
It was a little scary!
The thunderclouds had formed a huge vortex. The closer one got to the center of the vortex, the darker it became. There was even purple lightning shining in the deepest part of the vortex. It looked terrifying.
The heavenly tribulation was still accumulating power!
Boundless thunderclouds continued to expand, covering the entire Si Province and even spreading to the surrounding states. Such heavenly might made the citizens and martial artists who woke up early worry.
Rumble—
The thunderclaps became louder and louder, and the lightning above was getting closer and closer to Jiang Changsheng’s head.
This time, he intended to transcend the tribulation himself. Only when he was about to collapse, would he activate the incense offerings to give himself time to recover.
A bolt of lightning suddenly struck him and was offset by his spiritual shield.
He narrowed his eyes and looked over. A crack appeared on the spiritual shield before it quickly recovered.
The first bolt of lightning had such power?
His heart sank.
Soon after, bolts of lightning struck him crazily. He quickly circulated his energy to resist the lightning bolts.
A strong wind blew past, howling in all directions. The citizens in the capital were so shocked that they began to put away their clothes. Emperor Shuntian also circulated his true qi to isolate himself from the strong winds as he narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky.
After obtaining the Human King’s power, he could see Jiang Changsheng in the sky.
He was secretly shocked.
This was indeed a lightning tribulation.. So the rumors were not fabricated by the imperial family!
