My Descendant Begged Me To Help Him Just After I Became A God - Chapter 89
Chapter 89: Move the Mountain? How?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the 20th year of the Qianwu Era. Chinese New Year had just passed.
The now old Chen Li came to visit Jiang Changsheng and brought along some specialties from the South Yuan Dynasty. The two of them drank and chatted happily in the courtyard.
Recently, Chen Li resigned from his position and retired in the estate in peace. Jiang Changsheng was already seventy years old, and he was in his eighties. At such an old age, he should enjoy the rest of his life.
“His Majesty found the treasury left behind by the previous dynasty’s royal family. And recently, he has not been attending court. I wonder what he has discovered,” Chen Li said as he swirled his wine cup.
In order to stabilize the country, Great Jing expanded many official positions.
It was not until the end of the year that they completely stabilized. After that, Jiang Ziyu threw all his administrative affairs to Jiang Xiu and the three provinces and stayed in his bedroom to train all day long.
Jiang Changsheng also noticed this. Jiang Ziyu’s Heavenly Scripture of the Universe had reached a bottleneck. Going above his current realm would meant he had truly started cultivating immortality. However, due to the restrictions of the martial arts world, he could no longer improve and had no choice but to switch to other martial arts technique. Jiang Changsheng could not do anything about this.
It was the same for Huang Chuan. However, he cultivated other martial arts techniques and coupled with his outstanding qualifications, he had always been ahead of Jiang Ziyu.
The Heavenly Scripture of the Universe could at most allow one to cultivate to the Divine realm. This realm would have been enough dozens of years ago, but it was not enough now.
Now that Great Jing had more and more Divine realm experts, it was hard for the Heavenly Scripture of the Universe to maintain its former status.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “His Majesty has been tired for so many years, so he should take a rest. The late emperor was once intoxicated by the harem, and the Martial Ancestor Emperor was even more obsessed with the Immortal Dao. But Great Jing still did not collapse back then.”
Chen Li nodded and lamented, “It’s indeed time to relax. I haven’t been working as an official for the past few days, and I’ve been accompanying my great-grandson all day long. I found this kind of life quite interesting.
Changsheng, you should relax too. In any case, you usually have nothing to do. As for your training, just maintain it at a constant level every day. There’s no need to work so hard. Right now, you’re the number one in the world.”
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “I’m just number one in Great Jing. Who knows how vast the land beneath our feet is? Other than this land, it’s unknown if there’s a wider world on the other side of the ocean.’
Chen Li waved his hand and impatiently said, “I’m not used to hearing you say such things. We ordinary people don’t have your worries. Come and drink, drink!”
He was obviously drunk, but Jiang Changsheng did not mind and clinked glasses with him.
After cup after cup, Chen Li finally covered his mouth.
He looked up and asked, “Changsheng… what… do you want to do now?”
Jiang Changsheng pondered and said, “I want to move a mountain.”
Not far away, Bai Qi, who was originally sleepy, trembled when she heard this.
Move a mountain?
Did she hear wrongly?
“Moving a mountain… isn’t that simple? Just move it… His Majesty respects you so much… You can move whichever mountain you want…”
Chen Li sat up and smiled. Then, he hiccuped and collapsed on the table again.
Jiang Changsheng said in distress, “Exactly, but I’m struggling with which mountain to move?”
“There are five great peaks in the thirteen prefectures. I recommend… moving Tianshan Mountain… Tianshan Mountain stretches for thousands of miles…
“That’s too big to move…”
“Then move… move Martial Peak… Martial Peak is a single mountain… it’s easier to move… as long as you’re strong enough…
Jiang Changsheng’s eyes lit up. Martial Peak was good.
There was originally a sect stationed on Martial Peak, but it was conquered by Emperor Yang Zhao’s Burning Sky Pavilion and the sect was disbanded. He wondered if there was anyone living on Martial Peak now.
It did not matter if there were people living here. At most, they would pay them some silver.
He did not spend money on ordinary days, so he had accumulated quite a lot of money.
Jiang Changsheng fell into his reverie.
Bai Qi lowered her head, thinking that he was talking nonsense.
She had seen Martial Peak before. With it being so tall, how could it be moved by humans?
The next day.
Chen Li was carried down the mountain by the Chen family’s servants while Jiang Changsheng called for Ling Xiao.
“Master, what’s the matter?” Ling Xiao asked.
Jiang Changsheng rarely called for him, so he was rather curious.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and asked, “You’ve travelled the world, have you been to Martial Peak?”
Ling Xiao nodded and said, “Yes, I have. Why did Master ask about Martial Peak?”
Jiang Changsheng answered, “I want to move Martial Peak to a place outside the northern gates as the second mountain of Longqi Temple.”
Ling Xiao’s eyelids twitched when he heard that. He smiled awkwardly and asked, “Master, why are you teasing me?”
Bai Qi looked up and saw that Wang Chen, who was sweeping the floor, had stopped. Hua Jianxin and Jiang Jian had also stopped training. All of them looked at Jiang Changsheng with strange expressions.
“Why would I tease you? Go to Wu Feng first. If there are people on the mountain, dismiss them with money and wait for me there.” Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and a purse flew out of the house and landed in Ling Xiao’s arms.
Ling Xiao was stunned. Was he really not joking?
Or perhaps, he misunderstood?
Move the mountain, was it not the other way around?
“Go ahead and wait for me on the mountain.’
Jiang Changsheng glared at Ling Xiao. The latter could only brace himself and accept the task before he turned to leave.
Hua Jianxin walked over and asked curiously, “How are you going to move a mountain?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Let’s give it a try. It might not necessarily succeed. Oh right, look for Ziyu when you’re free and ask him to allocate the land outside the northern gate to Longqi Temple.”
After all, they could not forcefully occupy land under the Emperor’s feet.
When Hua Jianxin heard that, she thought he wanted to practice martial arts. She thought that he could really move mountains. She nodded and smiled before she turned around and continued to give Jiang Jian pointers.
Bai Qi stared at Jiang Changsheng in a daze. For some reason, she felt that Jiang Changsheng was not as simple as giving it a try.
The Demonic Priest would always do outrageous things.
On the other side.
Ling Xiao returned to his room to pack his bags before he walked toward the mountain gate.
Along the way, he met Huang Chuan. Seeing that he was about to go on a long journey, Huang Chuan could not help but tease, “Junior Brother, you want to go down the mountain and dominate the world again?”
Ling Xiao shook his head and prepared to bypass Huang Chuan, but he was stopped.
“Tell me, I’m worried about you. I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle being outside.” Huang Chuan blocked Ling Xiao on the small bridge and chuckled.
Ling Xiao rolled his eyes. He knew that his senior brother was bored out of his mind. Ever since Huang Chuan broke through to become a True God, he had wanted to prove himself. However, there were no other True Gods in the temple, and rarely would peerless experts come to challenge him. He felt suffocated here.
It was not easy for him to become a True God, but he could not prove his strength. Huang Chuan was about to be depressed.
Ling Xiao said helplessly, “Master asked me to go to Wu Feng.”
“Why are you going to Wu Feng for?”
“Teacher wants to move the mountain and asked me to disperse the people on the mountain in advance.”
“Move a mountain? What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Ask Master yourself. Move aside!”
Ling Xiao pushed Huang Chuan away impatiently and continued on his way.
Knowing that he was not out of his mind, Huang Chuan no longer stopped him. However, he was filled with confusion.
Move a mountain? Move a mountain how?
“Move a mountains? How?”
Jiang Ziyu widened his eyes and asked in shock. Jiang Xiu, who was flipping through the memorials, could not help but look up at Hua Jianxin.
Hua Jianxin said helplessly, “How would I know? It’s not like you’re unaware of your Master’s mysteriousness. No one knows what he’s thinking and what he can do. In any case, he wants the land outside the northern city gates. Are you going to give it to him or not?”
Jiang Ziyu put down his teacup and said, “If Master wants it, I will naturally give it to him. Since he wants to move a mountain, does he need manpower? I don’t think there are enough disciples in Longqi Temple, right? I can recruit a hundred thousand people to help move the mountain.”
He thought that Jiang Changsheng’s wish to move a mountain was a time-consuming and laborious thing, just like how the Jing Martial Ancestor built the canal in the past.
Hua Jianxin shook her head and said, “No need. Your Majesty only needs to allocate the land to Longqi Temple.”
Jiang Ziyu was amused. He smiled and said, “Approve it. I will approve to allocate the land today. I want to see how Master will move a mountain.”
Hua Jianxin nodded and turned to Jiang Xiu, concerned about his grandson’s well-being.
Jiang Ziyu picked up his teacup again, but his thoughts were wandering.
Did his father really want to move a mountain?
After Ling Xiao left, Jiang Changsheng continued to cultivate every day. Ling Xiao had the mark of reincarnation on him, and when the mark stopped moving for two days, it would mean that Ling Xiao had arrived at Wu Feng.
As he did not know the way, he asked Ling Xiao to be the guide while he took care of some trivial matters.
It was still a long way from Si Province to Wu Feng, so Jiang Changsheng was not in a hurry.
Five days later.
Huang Chuan came and stood under the Earth Spirit Tree. “Master, someone claiming to be from Xiansheng Grotto-heaven has come to pay a visit. He claims to be an old acquaintance of the Four Seas Sage.”
Jiang Changsheng did not open his eyes and calmly said, “Let him in.”
He had already sensed the other party’s aura and it was not simple. The other party was a True God. However, his cultivation technique was special so much so that Huang Chuan could not detect his strength.
Jiang Changsheng’s name was now renowned throughout the world. Those who could meet him and dared to come to meet him were naturally at least True Gods. Those with lower realms would not dare to come and were not qualified to meet him.
Soon, Huang Chuan arrived with Senior Brother Heng Feng of the Four Seas Sage.
“I am Heng Feng. Greetings, Dao Ancestor.”
Heng Feng cupped his fists and bowed. In his mind, he was thinking that the Dao Ancestor was indeed amazing. His youth retention skills were even better than those old monsters in the grotto-heaven.
Huang Chuan left, not daring to disturb the two of them. Hua Jianxin also left with Jiang Jian.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and asked with a smile, “How is the Four Seas Sage?”
Heng Feng felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He smiled and said, “Junior Brother Four Seas’s days are quite leisurely. He drinks and has fun every day. When he is free, he will teach his precious disciple. Oh right, it’s the Second Prince of Great Jing, Jiang Luo. Jiang Luo is really a good seedling. He has actually cultivated the peerless Divine Power of our Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. There’s hope for him to attain the Golden Body realm in the future.’
Jiang Changsheng asked curiously, “Are there very few Golden Body realm experts in Xiansheng Grotto-heaven?”
Heng Feng said awkwardly, “The Xiansheng Grotto-heaven is a martial arts haven outside the secular world, but not everyone is at the Golden Body realm.”
“Oh? You mean there is someone above the Golden Body realm in the
Xiansheng Grotto-heaven?”
“Well… I don’t know. There should be. The grotto-heaven is divided into several levels. Disciples are not allowed to cross levels to ask.”
Jiang Changsheng was slightly disappointed. Why was the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven the same as the Chao Sects? Was it because they were afraid of their information being leaked?
Heng Feng came back to his senses and said, “This junior is here because I was entrusted by my master to invite you to the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven as a guest. My master will certainly treat you well and will not force you to stay in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven.”
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, but I can’t go. Thank your master for me. Great Jing has just stabilized its territory, so I can’t leave.” Even though he was confident in dealing with the Xiansheng Grotto- heaven, it did not mean he was not cautious. What if the Xiansheng Grotto- heaven had the means to kill him?
He would not go!
He had not seen enough of Great Jing, so why would he go to the Xiansheng
Grotto -heaven?
Heng Feng hastily said, ‘My master is willing to impart the Heaven Seizing True Dragon Technique to senior. This technique cannot be cultivated unless one is at the Golden Body realm. After cultivating it, it can absorb the luck of the dynasty and increase one’s strength. The True Dragon Qi of the Mahayana Dragon Tower is the foundation of the Heaven Seizing True Dragon Technique.
When cultivated to perfection, it can condense a true dragon of luck and is extremely powerful..”
