Jiang Changsheng did not intend to look for that expert. After all, there was no grudge between them. Even if he were to look for him, it would not be a calamity. He was the one who asked for it.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly discovered that the place where the Sage was buried was slowly absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
He could still absorb it after his death. That was something.
He hesitated for a moment before he dug up the Sage Slaughter. He did not need to study martial arts, but he could hand it over to Jiang Xiu. During Jiang Ziyu’s reign, he had specially established a secret organization to study the
Golden Body realm and the Universe realm in order to familiarize himself with their meridians and the circulation of true qi so that more martial artists could gain some insight regarding these two realms.
He left with the Sage’s corpse and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
There was a huge lake that had a diameter of hundreds of miles. The center of the lake suddenly sank, as if a funnel had opened. In the darkness, a figure slowly rose.
His hair was disheveled and his upper body was bare. His muscles were extremely strong and filled with visual shock. His entire body was wet and around him, the phenomenon of heaven and earth vaguely appeared, covering the entire lake and faintly appearing, just like a mirage.
A figure dashed over. It was an old man in black robes. He quickly flew to the strong man’s side and knelt in mid-air as he said excitedly, “Welcome, Human King! ”
This strong man was the Human King, the Human King that Destiny had been thinking about.
The Human King raised his head. His face was weathered, and he looked to be in his early forties. His pupils were bloodshot. He enjoyed the sunlight and muttered, “The luck riot has disappeared. It seems like it has stopped…”
He turned to the black-robed old man and asked, “How long have I been in seclusion?”
The black-robed old man suppressed his excitement and answered, “You have been in seclusion for four hundred years…”
When the Human King heard that, his eyes drooped and he softly snorted.
“Four hundred years. It seems like I don’t have many years left to live.”
“Let’s go. Take me back to Destiny and tell me about the changes in the past four hundred years. Then, tell me who is suitable to be the next Human King.”
The black-robed old man immediately led the way. The two of them quickly flew away from the lake, and the surface of the lake returned to normal.
Jiang Changsheng threw the Sage’s corpse in the palace and sent a voice transmission to Jiang Xiu to ask someone to collect his corpse. When Jiang Xiu heard that the other party had surpassed the Universe realm, he immediately put down the memorial in his hand and personally went over.
On the other side, Jiang Changsheng returned to the courtyard.
Jiang Jian curiously asked, “Grandmaster, where have you been? Is it because of you that the luck suddenly returned to normal?”
The Sword God looked at Jiang Changsheng with admiration. Even though he did not know what had happened, he knew that Jiang Changsheng had saved the continent.
Jiang Changsheng waved his hand and said, “I have solved the problem, so I’m going to return to my room to rest.”
Jiang Jian was worried as he watched Jiang Changsheng close the door.
He looked at the Sword God and asked, “Is Grandmaster injured?”
The Sword God shook his head and said, “No.”
Bai Qi said angrily, “It must have been a huge harvest.”
Inside the house.
Jiang Changsheng waited. Not long after, a notification appeared before his eyes.
[7th year of the Rende Era. The Sage Slaughter of Xiansheng Grotto-heaven wanted to absorb the luck of the continent before escaping. Fortunately, you stopped him. You successfully won the battle against him and survived the calamity. You have obtained a survival reward—Magical Weapon, ‘Golden Scale
Rod’.]
Golden Scale Rod?
What was its relationship with the Golden-scaled Jade Leaves?
Jiang Changsheng immediately inherited the memories of the Golden Scale
Rod.
The Golden Scale Rod was a powerful magical weapon that could suppress luck and eliminate evil spirits. If it was connected to Golden-scaled Jade Leaves to form a Golden Scale Treasure Tree, it would become a powerful magical weapon with infinite power.
As expected, it was a magical weapon that matched with the Golden-scaled Jade Leaves!
Jiang Changsheng took out the Golden Scale Rod. Golden light flickered and a five-foot-long golden rod appeared in his hand. It was extremely heavy.
The Golden Scale Rod was as thick as an adult’s arm and its surface was carved with dragon scale patterns. It was vivid and extremely extraordinary.
He began to refine it. He discovered that the difficulty of binding the Golden Scale Rod was no less than the Sun Shooting Divine Bow. As expected of a reward from a Grotto-heaven realm opponent. However, the Grotto-heaven realm of the Slaughter Sage was forced by Jiang Changsheng, so the reward he received was not too heaven-defying.
However, Jiang Changsheng had a premonition that if he could gather all the parts of the Golden Scaled Treasure Tree, this treasure would definitely surprise him.
He did not know how powerful the Golden-scaled Treasure Tree was for the time being, but a Golden-scaled Jade Leaf was already invincible, not to mention the Golden-scaled Treasure Tree.
The next day, Jiang Changsheng walked out of the house and came to the Earth Spirit Tree to cultivate.
Jiang Jian could not help but ask what had happened yesterday.
Jiang Changsheng hesitated for a moment before he revealed the reason.
“The Sage of Xiansheng Grotto-heaven absorbed the luck of the continent to help him break through. Once he succeeds, the continent will be plagued with bad luck. Fortunately, I arrived in time.”
Jiang Changsheng spoke casually, but Jiang Jian and the Sword God could imagine the dangers.
The Sword God frowned and asked, “Has Xiansheng Grotto-heaven gone crazy?
Jiang Changsheng said, “They wanted to leave this continent, so before they left, they disregarded the continent and wanted to nurture an expert that surpassed the Universe realm.”
With that said, he closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
Jiang Jian angrily said, “It’s the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven again. They bullied my second brother and sent people to attack the capital. Now, they want to cause chaos on the continent. If I discover them in the future, I will definitely eradicate them.”
The Sword God shook his head and sighed internally.
He finally understood.
That night when the Dao Ancestor shot the arrows, Xiansheng Grotto-heaven must have retreated.
It seemed like Xiansheng Grotto-heaven was really gone.
However, he was still curious. As he was all the way here in the south, how did the Dao Ancestor know that Xiansheng Grotto-heaven was going to retreat and how did he shoot so accurately?
Was it really a martial arts technique?
Or did the Dao Ancestor open his Heavenly Eye?
Tianhai, the harbor of an island. A ship was stationed against the shore, and two figures walked out.
It was Jiang Luo and the Evil Lord. It had been many years, and now Jiang Luo was already middle-aged. On the other hand, the Evil Lord did not look old. Both of them looked about the same age.
They walked toward a bazaar and entered an inn.
This inn was the inn that Zhang Ying had come to previously, and it was called the Resting Heart Inn.
After the two of them entered the inn, the True God waiter immediately ran over with a smile and asked, “Dear guests, what would you like to drink and
Jiang Luo said, “Two jars of the best wine you have and four plates of the best dishes.”
“Sure!”
The waiter immediately turned around and left.
The shopkeeper, who stood in front of the counter, glanced at Jiang Luo and the Evil Lord before he lowered his head and continued with checking the accounts.
Jiang Luo asked, “Master, are we really going back?”
They had been away from the Dragon Vein Continent for seventeen years. After they went out to the ocean, whenever they saw someone, they would absorb them. As such, their strength had been increasing, especially the Evil Lord. His strength had reached an unimaginable level.
The Evil Lord smiled and said, “It’s time to go back. Let’s seize the dragon vein first before destroying Xiansheng Grotto-heaven.”
He was filled with confidence. Soon after, his gaze suddenly shifted to a servant who was wiping the table. When that servant heard the words Xiansheng Grotto-heaven, his body stiffened.
Seeing this, the Evil Lord narrowed his eyes.
At that moment, the waiter came with two jars of wine and poured wine for both of them. He noticed the Evil Lord’s gaze and immediately turned his head and scolded, “Ku, why didn’t you wipe this table clean?”
The servant named Ku turned around, revealing he was Xiao Buku.
Compared to before, Xiao Buku was like a completely different person. He now looked very timid. He carefully came to the table and began to wipe it.
Jiang Luo frowned and looked at him.
The Evil Lord asked as if nothing had happened, “Brother, have you heard of Xiansheng Grotto-heaven?”
Xiao Buku hastily shook his head.
The waiter smiled and said, “Dear customer, he grew up on this island and is born mute. If you want to know anything, you can ask me.”
The Evil Lord snorted and waved his hand, indicating for Xiao Buku to leave.
The waiter immediately pulled Xiao Buku away. As he walked, he kicked him and cursed him for being stupid.
Jiang Luo said in a low voice, “Master, that waiter’s skills are pretty good. This shop is not simple.”
The Evil Lord calmly said, “It’s alright. He’s just a True God. There will always be experts who want to hide themselves. Get used to it. Don’t forget that we met that fisherman previously. He looked weak, but he was actually in the Golden Body realm. We were almost ambushed by him.”
Jiang Luo nodded. At the thought of returning to the Dragon Vein Continent, anticipation flashed past his eyes.
He asked, “Master, can I go back to Great Jing to take a look? I want to see my father and mother. I’m afraid that if I don’t see them again, I won’t have the chance to see them in the future. Even though my feelings for them are not deep, they sent me to Xiansheng Grotto-heaven with good intentions. They just hope that I can learn an ultimate technique.”
The Evil Lord smiled and said, “Of course. I also want to take a look at Longqi Temple.”
Jiang Luo revealed a smile.
8th year of the Rende Era.
In the imperial study, Jiang Xiu kicked the table over with a bang and his face was filled with anger.
Chen Li and the God of Thieves were silent.
Jiang Xiu put his hands on his hips and tried hard to restrain his anger. He said in a deep voice, “Donghai is too much. No matter which dynasty I want to fight, they will support it. We are fighting two dynasties away from their territory, and there are still dynasties along the way, but they actually allowed the troops and horses of the Donghai Dynasty to come and go as they pleased.”
Chen Li said, “The Donghai Dynasty has been established for 200 years, and they are not Great Wilderness. The latter has been resting for 100 years, while the former has been fighting. They are vigilant and cautious, so they naturally know our objective. However, the Donghai Dynasty must be in an even more difficult position to come from so far. Your Majesty can order the three vassals in the north to send out troops together and devour the ordinary dynasties in front of them so as to approach the Donghai Dynasty.”
The God of Thieves said, “The Hongxuan Dynasty also has no choice but to be on guard. The White-robed Guards that snuck into the Hongxuan Dynasty found out that the Hongxuan Dynasty is recruiting troops. This is not a good sign. ”
Jiang Xiu sat down and said helplessly, “If there were someone at the Golden Body realm, I would not have ended up like this. However, General Ping’an does not wish to continue fighting.”
Chen Li said, “Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince practices martial arts under the Dao Ancestor, ans he can leave the mountain once he reaches the Golden Body realm. After so many years, he should be close to the Golden Body realm, right?”
“I am also waiting. Ninth Brother also promised to help me, but it is not easy to break through to the Golden Body realm.” Jiang Xiu frowned.
Chen Li said, “Your Majesty, why don’t you imitate the previous emperor’s actions towards Ping’an?”
When Jiang Xiu heard that, his eyes flickered.
He had also thought about it, but he could not bring himself to do it.
After all, Jiang Jian was not Ping’an. The latter was born to be stupid and easy to control. If Jiang Jian’s achievements overshadowed his master, even if he did not oppose him, how could his sons suppress Jiang Jian when he died?
If Jiang Jian were to marry and have children in the future, would his son want to be the emperor?
He had to consider these possibilities carefully.
Compared to nurturing Jiang Jian, he wanted to choose a genius who was not from the royal family and nurture him to the Golden Body realm. If Jiang Jian’s descendants rebelled, as they were still of the Jiang family’s bloodline, his grandfather would probably turn a blind eye to it, but if outsiders rebelled, his grandfather would definitely suppress them.
Jiang Xiu was in a dilemma.
Chen Li and the God of Thieves did not dare to disturb him.
At that moment, a White-robed Guard quickly entered the room and handed over a secret letter.
Jiang Xiu opened it and was furious as he tore the secret letter into pieces.
Chen Li hastily asked, “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Xiu took a deep breath and said, “The Donghai Dynasty has sent a large number of navy troops across the ocean. Moreover, they have circled to the south at the bottom to conduct a siege..”
