Chapter 260: Martial Emperor Island’s Determination

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“How can I collect them? I can only use this treasure to see them.”

Jiang Changsheng could not help but laugh. As he spoke, he pinched Bai Qi’s head, causing her to cry out in pain.

Ji Wujun asked curiously, “Dao Ancestor, is this an innate treasure or was it refined by you?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “Naturally, I refined it. You can’t find such a treasure in the world. However, other than me, anyone else who obtains this treasure will not be able to use it.”

As he spoke, he threw the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror to Ji Wujun, who immediately caught it. Soon after, the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror closed and turned into an ordinary stone slab.

Ji Wujun tried to open it, but it would not even budge. Even if she poured her true qi into it, it was like a stone sinking into the ocean.

She had no choice but to return the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror to Jiang

Changsheng and lamented, “As expected, there is a difference between immortals and mortals.”

Thinking of the past, Bai Qi could not help but ask, “Master, is it true that all living beings can practice martial arts, but if you want to become an immortal, it depends on your talent?”

In the past, Jiang Changsheng created the Heavenly Scripture of the Universe, but Huang Chuan and the others could not cultivate it to perfection. After that, they could only switch to other cultivation methods. Jiang Changsheng said that only by cultivating the Heavenly Scripture of the Universe to perfection could they cultivate his immortal techniques.

Jiang Changsheng said, “More or less.”

Bai Qi began to sigh at the disparity between mortals and immortals, and Ji Wujun also started to chat with him.

Ever since the others left, the relationship between Bai Qi and Ji Wujun got closer and closer. After all, they were the only ones who could chat with each other. As for Huang Tian and Hei Tian, Ji Wujun always felt that they were like children that would never grow up. Although Bai Qi was cheap, at least she was not childish.

Jiang Changsheng continued to play with the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror for a while before he created another clone and asked it to leave with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.

Watching his clone leave, Ji Wujun was curious, but she did not dare to ask much. She knew what she could not ask.

Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and cultivated.

He suddenly felt that the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror might become stronger than him.

That was pretty good too!

Immortal cultivators were meant to fight with immortal techniques and magical treasures. Why should they fight with their physical bodies like martial artists?

Jiang Changsheng smiled.

Give him more time to develop. What demon? What imperial family of the Great Wilderness? What Outerworld Devil River? He’ll suppress them all!

Five years passed.

In the 47th year of the Taihe Era, at the beginning of May, Jiang Changsheng’s clone returned. He once again split out a new clone and asked it to leave with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.

Usually, he did not need to waste his magic power, so he could split half of his magic power at any time.

The moment his clone left, Li Jun arrived.

Li Jun was now in the Golden Body realm, and his lifespan had been extended. He was still working for the White-robed Guards. However, he would still come to Jiang Changsheng every once in a while to report on the world and continue the relationship between Jiang Changsheng and Eunuch Li.

He was not the only one. Other people who often visited Jiang Changsheng in the past had never stopped coming. They would come every once in a while.

Jiang Changsheng did not think much of it because it was based on his strength. It was already great for them if they could establish a certain connection with him.

However, Jiang Changsheng was still rather happy to see Li Jun. He felt a sense of accomplishment as he looked at Li Jun’s increasingly imposing aura. He had changed the fate of countless people.

After Li Jun exchanged pleasantries, he brought up a huge matter and said, “Dao Ancestor, recently, many sects have moved out of Skyview Land and established their own sects in the Great Wilderness. This matter was led by the former Chao Sects, and it has caused a stir. Do you think we should curb it?”

Chao Sects?

Jiang Changsheng was in a trance when he heard that term.

Once upon a time, the Chao Sects were a huge mountain pressing down on him.

Jiang Changsheng answered, “Let nature take its course. We can’t force them to stay. Besides, it’s not that simple for them to gain a foothold.”

In his opinion, this was actually a good thing. It could allow the human race to flourish in the Great Wilderness. The more martial artists there were, the more care the martial artists of Great Jing would receive if they went out on adventures. Of course, the human heart was sinister and it could also end up in a struggle. However, from the looks of it, this was a good thing.

Li Jun nodded after he heard that. He firmly believed in the Dao Ancestor’s judgment.

He talked about some other things, mostly about the prodigies that had emerged over the years. Jiang Changsheng seemed to have returned to the past as he listened to the grudges in the pugilistic world.

Four hours later, Li Jun finally left.

Jiang Changsheng calculated the strength of the Chao Sects and discovered that they were worth 110,000 incense points.

Not bad.

It was already the glory of the past to have a Grotto-heaven realm expert.

Jiang Changsheng looked at the ferocious beast who was worth 200 million incense points that he had previously given a name to, Tong Tiandi.

Tong Tiandi disguised itself as a human and had lived in Great Jing for many years. It had even established a sect that was located in the mountains and specially took in children or orphans from the countryside. Even though Great Jing was rich, there was always a place that was lagging behind. Furthermore, it had become a grandmaster-like existence in that lagging place and was respected by the commoners.

He discovered that Tong Tiandi hid a benevolent heart. Even though it was a ferocious beast, it was kinder and more benevolent than most people.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Changsheng had always allowed it to stay in Great Jing. At that moment, it was teaching a group of children martial arts.

“Eh? That child is not simple.”

Jiang Changsheng’s gaze landed on one of the children.

That child was only seven years old, but he had blood and qi comparable to a young ferocious beast. He could not help but suspect that Tong Tiandi was messing around. However, when he sensed it carefully, the child’s aura was completely different from Tong Tiandi. They were not related by blood at all.

Interesting.

Jiang Changsheng looked at them for a while before retracting his gaze.

Recently, there had indeed been many geniuses in Great Jing who were not inferior to Yang Zhou or even Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian. However, they did not have Jiang Jian’s third eye and Lin Haotian’s Martial Emperor inheritance.

In another few decades, Great Jing would definitely be exciting.

“It has been a long time since an expert challenged me. I miss it.”

Jiang Changsheng silently thought about the martial artists below the Universe realm who were not qualified to challenge him and were blocked by the disciples of Longqi Temple. As for martial artists above the Universe realm, most of them had just broken through and their lifespan was still long. They had yet to reach the end of their lifespan, so none of them came to challenge him.

Jiang Changsheng stood up and began to observe the Great Wilderness.

Every half a year, he would use the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth to observe the Great Wilderness, and the distance he could see was getting further and further away. However, so far, no race had appeared in the Great Wilderness that could really threaten him and Great Jing.

Within the vast ocean, on an isolated island.

In the hall, the experts of Martial Emperor Island gathered. As the Island Master, the Martial Emperor, who was a white-haired old man, sat at the head of the table.

Several old men were reporting the situation in turns, and it was soon Elder Tianji’s turn.

Elder Tianji recounted the situation of the area he was responsible for. Then, he solemnly said, “Island Master, the situation is not good. The Seven Great Demon Saints are clearly planning something. A calamity is about to arrive. Recently, a large number of human martial artists have disappeared, and the number has reached an unimaginable level. However, from the fact that the luck of these dynasties has yet to dissipate, it means that they are not dead and have only been captured.”

The Martial Emperor was expressionless as he said, “What will come will come. It is precisely because of the resurrection of the Seven Great Demon Saints that the supreme demon did not massacre the human race. The Seven Great Demon Saints are even more cruel than him. At present, are there promising dynasties among the Sovereign Dynasties? Is there anyone with the qualifications to become a Martial Emperor?”

Elder Tianji answered, “Guangtian has the potential to be the next Sacred

Dynasty, but they do not have the talent to have a Martial Emperor. The Qingtian I follow has the talent to become a Martial Emperor, but he does not have the support of any faction and disdains to join one.”

Speaking of Qingtian, he felt helpless. It was not easy to find a good seedling, but in the end, it was a hothead who was stubborn to death.

The other old men voiced their opinions one after another. Regarding which dynasty could the next Sacred Dynasty, most people agreed that it was

Guangtian, but there were many opinions about who could be the next Martial Emperor.

The Martial Emperor frowned when he heard that and said, “Since there are so many potential Martial Emperors, it means that they don’t have the qualifications to become the next Martial Emperor at all. The real Martial Emperor must be shining so brightly that everyone in the world would be overshadowed. If they don’t have the qualifications to become the next Martial Emperor, then I can only assume the responsibility of the Martial Emperor. Everyone, are you prepared to die?”

As soon as he said that, everyone’s expressions became determined and they said in unison, “We’ve long been prepared!”

The Martial Emperor slowly stood up and said, “With so many martial artists have disappearing, it means that the Seven Demon Saints are brewing a calamity that will destroy the entire human race. Martial Emperor Island was originally designated by the Sacred Dynasty to launch its pilgrimage in the past. However, the Sacred Dynasty has been dead for dozens of years, and Martial Emperor Island has maintained the peace of the endless ocean for so many years. By now, iur responsibilities to the human race have been fulfilled.

Next, it’s time to fulfill our responsibilities to the Sacred Dynasty.”

“Gather all the martial artists above the age of 300 on Martial Emperor Island and disperse the guest martial artists. Prepare for battle with all your might. Either we decide everything in one battle, or all of you follow me to the netherworld to search for the Emperor!”

His gaze swept across everyone in the hall. No one was afraid. Instead, they revealed relieved expressions.

Elder Tianji suddenly thought of something and asked, “Island Master, I suddenly remember a Sovereign Dynasty, and that is Great Jing. Does Great Jing have the potential to be the next sacred dynasty? Does the Dao Ancestor have the talent to become the next Martial Emperor?”

Everyone looked at him.

They could be said to be paying close attention to Great Jing because the luck of Great Jing had increased so quickly that it shocked them. However, Great Jing had disappeared without a trace and no one knew where it was. The same was true for the Dao Ancestor, who had not appeared for a long time.

The Martial Emperor frowned and said, “Great Jing indeed possesses the potential to be the next Sacred Dynasty, but I don’t know where they are hiding. This act is equivalent to giving up on the human race. Even if they eventually become a Sacred Dynasty, the human race in the ocean would probably have gone extinct long ago. Therefore, whether Great Jing can become a Sacred Dynasty or not is not within our consideration.”

“As for the Dao Ancestor, even though he keeps a low profile, every time he attacks, it is unimaginable. However, he is not an emperor.”

“The acts of Great Jing and the Dao Ancestor are equivalent to abandoning the humans in the ocean. There’s no need to mention them. We just have to take a gamble and fight for the last chance of survival for the humans in the ocean.” The Elder Tianji was speechless.

Another old man asked, “Island Master, which Saint Emperor are you going to resurrect?”

The Martial Emperor took a deep breath and said, “Even though Martial Emperor Island has a lot of Martial Emperor’s remains, there is only one person we can choose from, and that is Emperor Wu Ren. He will sacrifice our flesh and blood to turn it into a trace of will so that Emperor Wu Ren can fight against the Seven Great Demon Saints. If we can awaken Emperor Wu Ren’s true nature, perhaps the human race will usher in a new hope.”

Everyone was silent again.

They all knew that their new hope was a delusion. With the resurrection of a Martial Emperor, he would definitely become a resurrected spirit and would no longer help the human race. All they could do was to transform into a trace of will and manipulate Emperor Wu Ren to fight for the human race for a short time..
