Chapter 74: Evil Demon and Dragon Vein, War Between the Five Dynasties

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This earthquake that was rarely seen in hundreds of years affected all the cities in the Si Province. There were so many casualties that it was difficult to estimate. Other than the streets near Longqi Temple, the other places in the capital had suffered damage. It would take a lot of time to rebuild them. Fortunately, Great Jing was strong now. Jiang Ziyu gave the order that he would bear all the money needed to repair the houses for the people, which made them feel the Emperor’s kindness.

In this world, mortals were in awe of natural disasters. Although the Si

Province had suffered an earthquake, the hearts of the people did not waver. Of course, there were some voices that thought that the Emperor had caused the heavens to resent him for fighting a war all year round, but these voices quickly disappeared.

When the disciples of Longqi Temple learned of the encounters in the capital and the Si Province, they were shocked. They had thought that it was just a small earthquake on the mountain. Seeing that there was such a big difference, they could only attribute it to Jiang Changsheng’s protection.

Immortal Master Changsheng, an immortal god in the world!

They were not the only ones who realized this. More and more people realized that the streets near Longqi Mountain did not suffer much damage, causing the name of the Immortal Master Changsheng to spread again. The influential people in the capital began to buy the land near Longqi Mountain at a high price. Some wanted peace, while others wanted to get rich.

At the end of the year, the Si Province also walked out of the haze brought about by the earthquake.

On this day, Jiang Ziyu came to visit and brought someone with him, the Minister of Luck, Han Tianji.

When he first met Jiang Changsheng, Han Tianji was stunned. He had often heard that Immortal Master Changsheng was proficient in the art of youth preservation. Now that he saw him today, he was shocked.

Jiang Ziyu briefly introduced Han Tianji and asked him to talk about the matter. Only then did Han Tianji wake up and hurriedly say, “Immortal Master, the earthquake two months ago was extraordinary. I heard that the capital also encountered an earthquake 60 years ago. And I guess it was caused by the dragon vein riot.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, “And then?”

Could it be that these two people wanted him to deal with the dragon vein?

Han Tianji added, “Every time the dragon vein riots, it will be more intense than the last time. This is a huge disaster. Whether it’s man-made or a natural disaster. No matter which it is, we can’t sit still and wait for death.”

Jiang Ziyu said, “I suspect that it’s the remnant of the Mahayana Dragon

Tower.”

The Mahayana Dragon Tower had been destroyed, but in fact, only a group of people who were about to die had died. It was impossible for the Mahayana

Dragon Tower to have so few people, so it was still a rock in Jiang Ziyu’s heart.

Jiang Changsheng asked helplessly, “Then do you know where the dragon vein is? You can’t expect me to dig into the ground, right?”

He did not know how to dig.

Even if he used the Nine Heavens Mysterious Change to turn into an earthworm and burrow into the ground, it would be too strenuous.

“I’ve already sent the White-robed Guards to investigate in the Si Province. If it’s man-made, there will definitely be an entrance. If the entrance is discovered, I hope that Master can take action. Those who can mess with the dragon vein are definitely martial artists with extremely high realm,” Jiang Ziyu replied.

Han Tianji added, “I want to know how you protected Longqi Mountain. Did you use some kind of providence technique that allowed Longqi Mountain to

avoid the earthquake?”

He was very curious about this, so he asked Jiang Ziyu to bring him here.

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “How would I know anything about providence? I just protected the mountain with my strength.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Ziyu and Han Tianji were stunned and could not believe their ears.

Jiang Ziyu could not help but ask, “Protect the mountain with your strength? How is that possible? Although Longqi Mountain is not a huge mountain, it is still a mountain. It takes about an hour to walk up the mountain.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and did not say anything.

Han Tianji was shocked.

How powerful was he to protect a mountain from an earthquake?

He could not imagine it. It was too shocking. Perhaps there was such an expert in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven, but with his status and strength, he had never come into contact with them.

In the end, the two of them left in silence. Only they knew what they were thinking.

Before he left, Jiang Changsheng handed Jiang Ziyu two bottles of pills. He was also afraid that his son would have a short life, so he planned to nurse him up as soon as possible.

Bai Qi clicked her tongue in wonder and thought to herself, ‘It’s not as simple as just protecting the mountain with his strength. He casually slapped it and dispersed the power of the earthquake without using his full strength…

Jiang Changsheng came to the Earth Spirit Tree to meditate and began to use incense point to calculate. He asked in his heart.

“I want to know what caused this earthquake.”

[4,000 incense points will be consumed. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

This time. Tiang Changsheng had invested a lot

[This earthquake was caused by an evil spirit absorbing the luck of the dragon vein. Once the luck of the dragon vein is exhausted, the Si Province will collapse and the luck of the thirteen states will be severed. From then on, it will become a land of disaster.]

Evil spirit?

It was already equivalent to the combined strength of two Chao Sects. It was extraordinary.

However, 4,000 incense points might not be able to completely offset the heavenly tribulation when he broke through to the sixth level of the Dao Technique.

This meant that the evil spirit could not threaten him for the time being.

When Jiang Changsheng thought of this, he felt that it was not a big problem.

He immediately circulated his spiritual energy and split it into an avatar, causing Bai Qi’s wolf eyes to widen.

The clone looked exactly like him. The two of them meditated side by side, and it was impossible to tell who was the real one.

In two months, Jiang Changsheng had cultivated the Clone Technique to perfection. It could be said he was using it at ease.

His avatar stood up and leaped. He rode the clouds and left, quickly disappearing into the horizon.

Bai Qi trembled and asked carefully, “Daoist Master, that was…”

Jiang Changsheng glanced at her and said meaningfully, “You didn’t see anything, right?”

Bai Qi was so frightened that her entire body trembled. She nodded with all her might.

Was this really a f*cking martial arts technique?

It was definitely not an illusion. Even Bai Qi could sense the aura of the avatar. It was exactly the same as Jiang Changsheng.

Hang cnangsneng sent ms avatar to searcn tor tne ctragon vein. HIS avatar was undoubtedly the main body and it also had a divine sense. It was more convenient for him to search than the White-robed Guards.

16th year of the Qianwu Era, Spring March.

Great Jing suddenly received the declaration of war from various dynasties, and the surrounding dynasties rejected Great Jing’s trade request. A large number of troops appeared at the borders of the various dynasties, but they did not attack Great Jing. Instead, they waited solemnly for orders.

“North Zhou, Wei, Chen, Tiangang, and Nanyuan have all declared war on Great Jing. Very good, very good!”

Jiang Ziyu stood in front of the dragon throne and said in a deep voice. There was a cold smile filled with killing intent on his face.

The civil and military officials discussed among themselves nervously. The thirteen prefectures had never encountered such a situation. In the past, although they had fought with the surrounding dynasties, they were rarely surrounded by so many dynasties. After all, the other dynasties had feuds and conflicts of interests with each other.

Chen Li said, “Your Majesty, the five dynasties declared war at the same time, but they did not attack. Perhaps they are just afraid of the might of Great Jing and want to resist together.”

Xu Tianji shook his head and said, “I don’t think so. Perhaps they are waiting for the order to attack at the same time.”

The officials voiced their opinions one after another.

Jiang Ziyu also calmed down. Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid. With the five dynasties joining forces, no matter which dynasty Great Jing attacked, it would directly trigger a war between the six dynasties. At that time, all the borders of Great Jing would be at war!

This was extremely disadvantageous to Great Jing.

The current Great Jing was equivalent to the fusion of three dynasties, but Ancient Han and the Jin Dynasty were still in the process of fusing. Once the war showed their flaws, the people from the Ancient Han and the Jin Dynasty might rebel. That would be too fatal.

.

“Your Majesty, for now, it’s best to remain unchanged and deal with the changes. With the five dynasties working together, no one would dare to be the first to fight. Great Jing also needs time to digest the Jin Dynasty and produce more troops.” Yang Che stood up and said. His words were approved by many people.

Jiang Ziyu scoffed. “Then I’ll see who dares to attack Great Jing first. I’ll be the first to destroy him!”

He began to issue a decree and sent a large number of generals to various borders to be on guard at any time. He did not even leave a general in the capital. All generals above the fifth-grade were sent out.

In Longqi Temple, Jiang Changsheng also learned of this through Li Jun. After the five dynasties declared war together, they spread the news wantonly. The news had already spread in Great Jing, causing everyone to panic.

The siege of five dynasties sounded terrifying.

This was one of the reasons why the five dynasties declared war and did not attack.

When Jiang Changsheng heard this, he sighed in his heart. Before he could find the dragon vein, the enemy had already begun to take action.

He even suspected that the Chao Sects of both sides knew about the dragon vein and deliberately caused trouble at this juncture.

After searching for three months, Jiang Changshengs avatar and the White-robed Guards could not find the entrance to the dragon vein. Clearly, the dragon vein was hidden deep underground and might not even be found even if he used his Soul Out of Body technique to search. It was even possible that it was not underground in the Si Province at all. Jiang Changsheng could only give up and take things as they came.

“Yes, I know everything.”

Jiang Changsheng responded and listened to all the news before Li Jun bowed and left.

Bai Qi came over and said, “With the five dynasties joining forces, the Chao

Sects must be plotting behind the scenes.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded. He also knew about this, but he did not feel annoyed. Instead, he looked forward to the other party giving him survival rewards.

They were all chives.

Bai Qi also asked, “Great Jing will definitely not be able to defend the siege of five dynasties. Do you want to take action?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “Let’s talk about it when we can’t win.”

He rarely interfered in the matters of the dynasty. Only if Great Jing was really to the point where the mountains and rivers were shattered, he would take action. After all, his gaze was never on the present.

Perhaps many people would die because of his actions, but hundreds of years later, people still had to die. It was all in the past. He did not want to be a Bodhisattva. Even a real Bodhisattva would not really grant this request.

He was willing to become the pillar of support for Great Jing, but he was unwilling to protect it alone and take action for everything. If he really wanted to establish a thousand-year dynasty, his own development was especially important.

Jiang Changsheng took out a bottle of Spirit Boosting Pills and continued to circulate his energy after consuming it.

Although he had not met any opponents for the time being, he still yearned for the seventh level of the Dao Technique. He had to continuously become stronger to prevent his life from being in danger when an expert surpassing the Universe realm appeared.

According to his estimation, he should be able to reach the seventh level of the Dao Technique in five years!

This was only his realm. Every year, his strength would increase!

The cycle of the sun and moon passed day by day.

One month passed, and more and more troops were stationed at the border of Great Jing. Jiang Ziyu was still recruiting troops without restraint, as if he did not care about the treasury and wanted to fight to the death with the five dynasties.

Great Jing’s attitude also surprised the surrounding five dynasties. They thought that Great Jing would be frightened, but they did not expect it to be even more domineering and prepare to accept the war.

August.

The war finally broke out. First, Northern Zhou launched an attack on Great Jing. On the same day, the Tiangang Dynasty in the north raised their troops to attack the former Jin Dynasty. In the next seven days, the Wei Dynasty sent troops to reinforce Northern Zhou. The Chen Dynasty and the Nanyuan Dynasty also sent troops one after another. Within a month, wars broke out at the borders of Great Jing.

This was an unprecedented battle. The five dynasties had invested more than two million troops and were still recruiting.

The Emperor issued an edict, calling for martial artists to freely go to various battlefields to provide support. After the war, they would be rewarded based on their contributions, and they might even be promoted to nobles. He would also not ask about their background or past.

The moment this edict was released, Great Jing’s martial arts world was excited!

On this day, someone came to visit Jiang Changsheng.

Huang Chuan stood in front of Jiang Changsheng and bent down. “The other party claims to be from the Chao Sect and wants to see you..”
