My Descendant Begged Me To Help Him Just After I Became A God - Chapter 647
Chapter 647: Myriad Manifestations, Determination
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the face of the black-armored man’s question, Jiang Changsheng casually came up with a name. The Jiang Clan was huge, and it was impossible for the black-armored man to know every single member of the Jiang Clan. Therefore, he did not ask further.
With the Eye of the Great Dao, it was enough to prove Jiang Changsheng’s identity. The reason he asked was purely out of curiosity.
Jiang Changsheng’s appearance did not seem to belong to this era. His aura was also very calm and was not corroded by the Dark Force. Such an existence was very rare.
“You said that you don’t know where you came from. I believe you must have the help of an almighty expert. However, the Taiyi Immortal Realm has already fallen. All the almighty experts have fallen. Who can help you?” The black-armored man frowned and muttered to himself.
Jiang Changsheng asked, “Who were you fighting before? Could it be that the so-called Dark Force can still fight you?”
The black-armored man frowned and said, “Of course. At first, the Dark Force was a kind of power of the Great Dao that spread throughout the boundless world. Later on, a group of dark evil spirits was born. They did not have any intelligence and only knew how to kill. The outside world had been surrounded by those dark evil spirits. Previously, I wanted to break out and find a way to survive, but I almost lost my life…”
As he spoke, he looked into the distance as if he was searching for something.
Jiang Changsheng said, “You’re looking for Jiang Qi, right? He’s buried.”
Hearing this, the black-armored man trembled, but he did not lose control of his emotions. He just clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.
Jiang Changsheng had calculated the karma between him and Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi was his seventh brother…
“Are there only the two of us left in the Jiang Clan?” Jiang Changsheng asked, wanting the black-armored man to divert his attention.
The black-armored man came back to his senses and nodded. “At least in this world.”
Jiang Changsheng continued to ask, “Then what are your plans?”
The black-armored man snorted and said, “After I recover from my injuries, I will attempt to escape from this world again. The men of the Jiang Clan would only die in battle and not struggle at death’s door!”
Jiang Changsheng was thinking that if he actually tried to escape from this world and was attacked by those dark evil spirits, his will should return to reality.
However, if he were to leave just like that, what was the meaning of his stay here?
Furthermore, he could not bear to see the Jiang Clan in such a miserable state. If the black-armored man was the last descendant of the Jiang Clan, he would definitely die if he were to leave him alone.
“Can it be that every time my will transmigrates to the future during my tribulation, I want to use the past me to guide my descendants because he can’t take action?”
Jiang Changsheng suddenly thought of this possibility and looked at the black-armored man.
“Tell me about your battle with the Dark Force.”
After Jiang Changsheng said that, he walked to the side and sat on a huge rock.
The black-armored man frowned and hesitated for a moment before he chose to sit down. As he circulated his energy to heal his injuries, he talked about the battle.
Dark evil spirits could not be seen, but they did exist. The black-armored man could only detect their existence when he was attacked. Moreover, during the battle with the dark evil spirits, he would gradually forget the pain on his body and his Dao heart would gradually become crazy.
As for the Dark Force, it did not manifest as darkness. In fact, the Dark Force could not be seen or touched. One could only sense its existence when they were entangled with it.
As Jiang Changsheng listened, he noticed a problem.
Why was the Dark Force so similar to a karmic backlash?
Could it be that the dark evil spirit was also a product of the backlash of karma?
What kind of huge karma caused the destruction of the boundless world?
Jiang Changsheng frowned. There were many orthodoxies in the boundless world that grasped the Karma Dao, and Zhou Gua was one of them.
In addition, his Karma Dao was not the strongest, so he was not sure if the problem was with the Immortal Dao or other orthodoxies.
“Don’t you feel that the Dark Force is similar to the power of karma? That’s right. The key is that such a huge karma cannot be resolved. This is the reason why it is called the Dark Force. I once witnessed a Zenith Heaven Immortal being devoured by the Dark Force. His Dao Fruit was annihilated in an extremely short period of time and his entire person was like withered grass before turning to dust. The entire process took less than seven breaths and he was helpless. If we encounter the Dark Force, we are doomed. If we encounter the dark evil spirit, we still have a chance of survival…”
At this point, the black-armored man revealed a look of horror. The tragic state of that Zenith Heaven Immortal back then made him tremble with fear.
Jiang Changsheng asked, “Can Zenith Heaven Immortals descend to the Taiyi Immortal Realm?”
The black-armored man glanced at him and sighed. “It was indeed impossible in the past. However, after the dark era, the barrier between the Great Dao Void and the boundless world disappeared. That Zenith Heaven Immortal also escaped to the Taiyi Immortal Realm, but he could not escape the pursuit of the Dark Force.”
Jiang Changsheng was well aware of the abilities of a Zenith Heaven Immortal. It was extremely difficult to catch up to them as they could jump through time and space at will. This meant that the Dark Force was a karmic backlash.
This was the case with the backlash of karma. It was impossible to avoid it. When he moved a piece of the ancient Immortal Dao, he encountered the backlash of karma. He had to sacrifice a bone to get rid of it.
That Dao bone had become a legend and was buried underground. Even until now, there were still people who wanted to find it.
“Karmic backlash…”
Jiang Changsheng fell into deep thought.
Since he was sure that the Dark Force was the power of karmic backlash, how should he resolve it?
The first thing he thought of was the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, but it would also cause a karmic backlash.
Could the Great Heaven Stealing Technique reverse the karmic backlash and give birth to new and different karmic backlash?
Jiang Changsheng suddenly felt that it was not impossible. This train of thought sounded ridiculous. In fact, he only needed to confirm one thing. The Dark Force had already given birth to dark evil spirits, which meant that it had evolved from the power of karma to something else. After the Great Heaven Stealing Technique reversed it, it would only bring about a pure backlash of karma, not an evolved Dark Force.
However, how should he reverse the Dark Force that covered the boundless world?
No, if the Dark Force had completely covered the entire boundless world, wouldn’t the Taiyi Immortal Realm have ceased to exist long ago? How could the stalemate last until today? Even if the Jiang Clan sacrificed their eyes, it was impossible for their blood to unleash a power that could shake the boundless world.
This meant that there might be a group of powerful existences in the boundless world who were truly resisting the Dark Force and allowed the Great Dao Voids to struggle at death’s door.
In that case, the Great Heaven Stealing Technique only needed to change the dark evil spirits in the sky!
Save the Taiyi Immortal Realm first and take it one step at a time. At the very least, he had taken a step forward.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the black-armored man and slowly said, “Jiang Jiu, there are 3000 Great Daos, and there is always a glimmer of hope. In the Heavenly Dao, nine is the ultimate number. Perhaps, in the unseen world, you are carrying a mission. Now that you are the only one left in the Jiang Clan, are you willing to take the risk of sacrificing yourself to save the Taiyi Immortal Realm?”
The black-armored man frowned and subconsciously wanted to ask if he was not from the Jiang Cla.
“How do you know my name?” The black-armored man’s expression was cold and his eyes were filled with vigilance.
Even if they were of the same clan, he had to be on guard. In case the other party was bewitched by dark evil spirits, he could not be careless.
Jiang Changsheng said calmly, “I can deduce it with a glance.”
As he spoke, he opened his Eye of the Great Dao again and released a powerful force. Jiang Jiu could not control himself and the Eye of the Great Dao on his forehead opened as well. The blood in the eye quickly faded.
Jiang Jiu trembled and looked at Jiang Changsheng in disbelief.
“How is that possible… This is the power of the ancestral eye… But didn’t the ancestral eye born from the blood sacrifice of the Jiang Clan get destroyed in the war ten thousand years ago…”
Jiang Jiu gritted his teeth and asked, “Who are you?”
Jiang Changsheng straightened his back and raised his right hand. He pointed his index finger at him and said, “I am indeed a member of the Jiang Clan, but you can’t calculate my seniority. Let’s put it this way. The Heaven Emperor, Jiang Lu, is my descendant!”
Jiang Jiu’s pupils constricted. Before he could speak, a golden light shot out from Jiang Changsheng’s index finger and into his Eye of the Great Dao. His whole body stiffened and his eyes lost their luster.
Jiang Changsheng wanted to forcefully teach Jiang Jiu the Great Heaven Stealing Technique.
He could feel those dark evil spirits attacking this world. Jiang Jiu did not have the time to listen to his sermon for a long time. He had to take risks and learn as soon as possible.
Not to mention whether Jiang Jiu could master the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, even if he could, he might not be able to resolve the current desperate situation.
However, this was the only solution Jiang Changsheng could think of.
In Jiang Jiu’s consciousness, Jiang Changsheng was preaching to him. Jiang Changsheng’s figure was everywhere as he constantly talked about the Karma Dao. It was extremely noisy, causing his Dao heart to almost collapse. However, he could not escape from this situation and could only passively accept it.
No one knew how long had passed.
Jiang Jiu slowly opened his eyes. It was dusk, and Jiang Changsheng was nowhere to be seen.
“This is…”
Jiang Jiu suddenly woke up. He immediately stood up and looked up. Soon, he locked onto Jiang Changsheng’s figure. He stood on the edge of the cliff halfway up the mountain and looked up at the sky. The cold wind blew against his Daoist robe. It was as if he would ascend and fly away at any time, making Jiang Jiu feel surreal.
He hastily flashed behind Jiang Changsheng and knelt on both knees. He gritted his teeth and said, “This junior has seen my ancestor. May I know your name?”
Jiang Changsheng’s back was facing him as he said, “There are myriad manifestations of me, so there’s no need to know my name. I came from a place you can’t imagine and what I have done is beyond your expectations.”
Myriad manifestations…
Jiang Jiu felt as if he had heard this term somewhere before, but he could not remember where he had heard it before and which powerful ancestor it described.
Jiang Changsheng turned around and looked at him. “This technique is called the Great Heaven Stealing Technique. You should know its strength and the consequences of using it. Are you willing to pay the price?”
Jiang Jiu immediately stood up with a determined expression and said, “I am the only one left in the Jiang Clan. I don’t want to live alone, so how can I be afraid? Even if I am devoured by karma and forgotten by the future generations and no one will remember me, as long as I succeed, I am willing!”
After inheriting the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, he was filled with unprecedented confidence.
Such a divine technique could certainly launch a counterattack against the dark evil spirits and might even reverse the desperate situation of the Taiyi Immortal Realm!
Jiang Changsheng looked at Jiang Jiu’s long hair that had turned white because he had inherited the Great Heaven Stealing Technique. He was gratified. No matter how far away they were in the future, there would always be someone among his descendants who had this determination and responsibility to press forward.
He had established the Immortal Dao and benefited the Jiang Clan the most. Therefore, the Jiang Clan should shoulder more responsibility for the Immortal Dao than the other clans.
