Chapter 84: Everyone in the World Knows the Dao Ancestor

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The 18th year of the Qianwu Era!

The Chen Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty surrendered. With this victory, the Jing Dynasty expanded and recaptured the invaded lands. In the past few months, heads continued to fall from various places and the Emperor began to settle accounts.

Those officials who had surrendered were beheaded or sent to the border. From the prime ministers of the three provinces to the ordinary county officers, none of them were spared.

No one dared to rebel against such cruelty!

In order to expand the dynasty’s military strength and recruit more civil servants, Jiang Ziyu announced to the world that merchants could open up their wallents and those who contributed greatly could be promoted to a noble. The state treasury that was originally in a deficit became rich in a short period of time. Not only were the merchants of the dynasty was doing this, but merchant families from other dynasties also came to surrender.

Be it inside or outside, everyone knew that an unprecedented dynasty was about to rise and the dynasties surrounding it would definitely be annexed.

Having learned his lesson, Jiang Ziyu was not in a hurry to start a war. Instead, he first stabilized his territory.

Tian Gang, Nan Yuan, and Wei surrendered. The imperial family of those dynasties were demoted to become just a royal family. If they did not surrender, they would be slaughtered sooner or later.

With Great Jing’s Dao Ancestor’s reputation, Great Jing ushered in a period of rapid expansion.

At night.

Jiang Changsheng sat on a tree and looked at the brightly lit capital. After half a year, the capital had become extremely prosperous. The lights were always on all night, making it feel like a nightless city.

He felt as if he had come to an ancient city in the Tang Dynasty in his previous life.

In terms of national strength and territory, Great Jing far exceeded the Great Tang Dynasty. However, this was the world of martial arts, and such a world far exceeded the strength limit on Earth. The strength of martial artists was even more incalculable.

This was all his credit!

Jiang Changsheng sighed with emotion and felt rather complacent.

Even though it was not in the court, it was a wonderful feeling to have made great contributions to the dynasty.

There should be no calamity in the next twenty years, right?

Jiang Changsheng thought to himself. It was too outrageous to think that twenty dynasties would besiege Great Jing. As long as Great Jing was not arrogant, that would not happen.

After watching for a while, Jiang Changsheng got down and sat under a tree to cultivate.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Under a huge waterfall, a lake was covered with mist, making this area look like a paradise. A figure sat on a rock, enduring the impact of the water falling down on him. His body was surrounded by a faint Blood Qi.

It was a young man. Upon closer inspection, he looked exactly the same as Jiang Xiu. However, the birthmark between his eyebrows was blood-red, making him look rather aggresive.

Several miles away, the Four Seas Sage was lying on a huge rock by the lake as he basked in the sun. A figure leaped off an eagle and landed beside him. This person wore a wide feather robe with an iron whip tied to his waist. He smiled and said, “Four Seas, why have you been guarding your precious disciple here? Are you afraid that we will snatch him away?”

The Four Seas Sage opened one of his eyes and looked at the person who came. “Senior Brother Heng Feng, what are you doing here?”

Senior Brother Heng Feng smiled and said, “Something big happened outside the grotto-heaven, and you just happened to have returned from Great Jing, so I came to ask you.”

Hearing this, the Four Seas Sage sat up and began to pick his ears with one finger. He impatiently asked, “What’s the matter?”

“The Martial Comprehension Valley and the Star Gathering Tower led a total of nine dynasties to besiege Great Jing. The Martial Comprehension Valley even invited an old monster at the Golden Body realm. However, they were completely defeated. That old monster at the Golden Body realm evem died on the battlefield without a complete corpse. And it was all because of one person, Immortal Master Changsheng of Great Jing who was called the Dao Ancestor by the Emperor of Jing.”

Senior Brother Heng Feng chuckled. When he heard the first half of the sentence, the expression of the Four Seas Sage changed drastically. However, the more he heard, the stranger his expression became.

The Demonic Priest was still so terrifying!

He could even kill those at the Golden Body realm?

Oh my god…

Senior Brother Heng Feng sighed and said, “The corporeal body of a Golden

Body realm expert is extremely powerful. Even if they die, their skin will not wither and their golden bones will not decay. However, it is said that such a powerful Golden Body realm expert was cut in half by the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing. Right now, many disciples are discussing it in the Xiansheng

Grotto-heaven. Even the seniors of the previous generation are curious.”

“He really became famous after that battle. Great Jing is located in a small corner in the south of this continent. Even though there is a dragon vein there, it is extremely far from the center of the continent and the Xiansheng

Grotto-heaven. To think that his reputation could spread here. Impressive.”

The Four Seas Sage said angrily, “Of course. If you can kill an old monster at the Golden Body realm, won’t your name also shake the world?”

Senior Brother Heng Feng sighed and said, “I was just wondering how could someone reach the Golden Body realm so easily. By the way, have you ever seen the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing?”

“Of course I’ve seen him before. I’ve even fought him before.”

The Four Seas Sage pinched his beard and said proudly.

Senior Brother Heng Feng carefully sized him up and questioned, “Your strength is so weak, how can you survive under his hands?”

The Four Seas Sage said in disdain, “You don’t understand. This is the charm of my personality. Even though my martial arts are lacking, my elegance had convinced the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing. He even invited me to drink.”

“Really?”

“Really!”

“Quick, tell me what kind of person the Dao Ancestor is.”

“Do you have any wine?”

“I knew it. Come with me.”

“Hehe.”

After the new spring, the capital became more and more prosperous. There were even foreign caravans appearing, and the number of martial artists in the land was also increasing. Because of these reasons, the Emperor issued a major decision to expand the capital!

The citizens did not have any objections. Compared to the construction of the canal by the Martial Ancestor, the expansion of the capital was nothing.

On this day.

Jiang Changsheng was cultivating when a notification appeared before his eyes.

[18th year of the Qianwu Era, Li Taichun, whom you had marked, was successfully reincarnated and born in the North Zhou Dynasty.]

Li Taichun was Eunuch Li.

Jiang Changsheng had left a reincarnation mark on all the people he was familiar with. Although he was not going to personally find them, at the very least, he could have more fun and see how they turned out.

Meng Qiushuang reincarnated the second year after her death, but Eunuch Li only reincarnated after a few years. The Empress had yet to reincarnate, so the matter of reincarnation was really unpredictable.

Jiang Changsheng was slightly lost in thought before he continued to cultivate.

At the same time.

In a courtyard in the capital, Yu Yanyi sat opposite someone. The other party was also a woman who looked older than her. She looked to be in her thirties and was dressed in purple clothes.

Yu Yanyi forced a smile and said, “From what you said, he became famous after that battle?”

The purple-robed woman sighed and said, “Not to mention that he has killed more than four million mortal soldiers, killing an old monster who was the

Golden Body realm is enough to make his name resound throughout the world. Even the top three Chao Sects are probing for information about him.” Yu Yanyi’s eyes were filled with fear and joy.

Fortunately, she was not rude when she met Jiang Changsheng. Otherwise, wouldn’t the Fuyue Family follow in the footsteps of the Martial Comprehension Valley and the Star Gathering Tower?

“God Blade Tian has already started to kill the disciples of the Star Gathering Tower. The two sects are adjacent to each other, so God Blade Tian naturally would not miss such a good opportunity. Even without God Blade Tian, it would be hard for the Star Gathering Tower to recover its strength within the next two hundred years.” The purple-robed woman sighed.

Yu Yanyi asked, “Will the God Blade Tian target the thirteen prefectures?”

The purple-robed woman shook her head and laughed. “How is that possible? They probably have to get their dynasties to pay tributes to Great Jing for peace. As long as the Dao Ancestor is alive, no one would dare to touch Great Jing. Besides, no one knows how old he is.”

Yu Yanyi recalled Jiang Changsheng’s appearance, but she could not put out a guess. However, she was in the impression that Jiang Changsheng was not old. Compared to those old farts, his temperament was completely different.

“The Family Head asked me to tell you to think of a way to befriend Longqi Temple. Longqi Temple has the possibility of becoming a Chao Sect, so take this as a meeting gift.”

The purple-robed woman took out a wooden box from her bosom. Yu Yanyi took it and opened it. When she saw what was inside, she was stunned and her expression became complicated.

March.

The martial arts examination was once again held. But this time, it was different from previous years. There were now more martial artists who registered, including martial artists from the Chen Dynasty, the North Zhou Dynasty, and the Nan Yuan Dynasty. As a result, many inns were temporarily set up outside the capital for martial artists to stay.

In Longqi Temple.

Wan Li was currently reporting the recent situation of Longqi Temple to Jiang

Changsheng. As Longqi Temple was established as a holy land, a large number of nobles wanted to send their disciples into the mountain.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Longqi Temple is only so big. You don’t have to accept too many disciples. You don’t have to worry about offending the nobles. Right now, Longqi Temple is the most noble existence in the capital.’

Wan Li nodded and felt that it made sense. He thought for a moment and said, “Then I will limit the number to a thousand. In the future, the disciples will no longer have to travel the world to take in orphans.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded in agreement.

After that, Wan Li asked for more instructions before he left.

Jiang Changsheng sighed. He missed his Eldest Senior Sister. If Meng Qiushuang were here, Wan Li would not have to ask him everything.

Bai Qi asked, “Is it not good to have many disciples?”

“Too noisy.”

At that moment, Huang Chuan entered the courtyard with news that a person named Yu Yanyi who was a disciple of a Chao Sect had come to visit with generous gifts.

Jiang Changsheng immediately agreed for Yu Yanyi to enter.

Not long after, Yu Yanyi entered the courtyard. She came to Jiang Changsheng and bowed respectfully. Next, she took out a wooden box and placed it on the table. “Senior, this is a 3000-year-old Flame Ginseng given by the Family Head. It is suitable for martial artists who cultivate Extreme Yang martial arts, as this would allow their strength to increase as if they had practiced for 100 years.”

Bai Qi widened her wolf-like eyes and almost drooled.

Jiang Changsheng could sense the rich and scorching spiritual energy in the Flame Ginseng. It was indeed not an ordinary item. This was the first time he had encountered such a treasure.

He asked, “Say thank you to your Family Head for me, but don’t tell me your

Family Head is giving this away for free?”

Yu Yanyi smiled and said, “How can you say that it’s a free gift? Just treat it as the Fuyue Family being on good terms with the Dao Ancestor from now on.”

In reality, she was reluctant to part with it. She was also envious of such a treasure. Even the Chao Sects would fight for such a treasure. When her father gave her this treasure to give as a gift, she was extremely shocked.

Jiang Changsheng accepted the box and said with a smile, “If it’s just to be on good terms, I naturally won’t reject it. I’m just afraid that the Fuyue Family will insist on taking over Grand Jing.”

Hearing this, Yu Yanyi smiled awkwardly and said, “How could we dare? Everyone in the world knows the name of the Dao Ancestor. The dragon vein is under the control of Senior. The Fuyue Family is convinced.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded in satisfaction. That was more like it.

The two of them chatted for a while, but Yu Yanyi did not dare to disturb him for too long and quickly left.

Jiang Changsheng played with the Flame Ginseng in deep thought.

Bai Qi stared at the Flame Ginseng and said, “Daoist Master, if such a treasure were given to a Divine realm expert, as long as their true qi is compatible, it would not be difficult for them to become a True God.

Hearing this, Jiang Changsheng put it into his Giant Spirit Ring. Bai Qi thought that he was hiding it in his sleeve, so she could only reluctantly look away.

There was no point in Jiang Changsheng taking the Flame Ginseng. After all, he was about to break through, so it would be better to add another True God to Longqi Temple.

Since it was a holy land, it could not just rely on him to support its reputation!
