Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“A whole continent disappeared. Could it be that it was sunk by a Demon Saint? No, if that were to happen, the Dao Ancestor would have definitely taken action. The battle would definitely be earth-shattering. How could there be no news?”
Venerable Bai frowned and muttered to himself. He was puzzled.
The masked man looked up and said, “I heard a rumor…”
Venerable Bai’s eyes turned cold as he said in a deep voice, “Speak! Why are you hesitating?”
The masked man gritted his teeth and said, “I heard that someone saw the Dragon Vein Continent riding the waves to the morth. It’s not only the Dragon Vein Continent, but also the East Continent!”
“Bullshit! That’s a continent, not an island!”
“Maybe the Dao Ancestor has the ability to turn continents into islands?”
Venerable Bai was silent. Even though he found it unbelievable, there was only one explaination, which meant it could only be true.
The masked man gritted his teeth and said, “My Lord, we just sent the Heaven Entrance there, but Great Jing disappeared. What should we do? That is a sacred object of the Sacred Dynasty!”
Venerable Bai said in a deep voice, “Send someone to that area to take a look and see if there are any remains of Great Jing at the bottom of the sea. If there are none, then send someone north to investigate.”
“Alright!”
The masked man immediately stood up and disappeared.
Venerable Bai took a deep breath and turned to look at the sun in the distance. He said in a low voice, “Dao Ancestor, what exactly do you want to do? Where did you go…”
The disappearance of the Dragon Vein Continent, the East Continent, and the Tianhai Sea had caused panic in the surrounding seas. Meanwhile, the civil and military officials of Great Qi overseas began to look for Great Qi everywhere.
Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty.
After Emperor Li Ya finished reading the secret letter, he frowned.
The old official standing beside him said, “Your Majesty, we have to be careful about this. Perhaps it was the demons who did it. Not long ago, the seven Demon Saints broke through the dragon vein seals. Perhaps it was because of this that Great Jing collapsed or provoked the attack of the Demon Saints. In any case, the demon calamity has arrived. Fengtian has to make preparations.”
When Li Ya thought of the Dao Ancestor, he felt that Great Jing would not perish just like that. However, it was impossible for Fengtian to find Great Jing, so he could only think of ways to protect himself.
“Damn it, time is too short. Even though my Dao of Martial Luck have become popularized, we still need more time.”
Li Ya tightly gripped the secret letter in his hand and felt an unprecedented amount of pressure on him.
The thought of the Demon Saints’ terrifying strength made him tremble in fear.
He suddenly thought of something.
If the Dragon Vein Continent was not sunk by the Demon Saints, then it was the doing of the Dao Ancestor. In his heart, the Dao Ancestor was already an Immortal God. Since he was an Immortal God, he was omnipotent.
“Pass down my decree and have all the cities on the continent build stone statues of the Dao Ancestor so that the citizens of Fengtian can worship him. No, gather all the officials. I will say it myself!”
Li Ya said in a deep voice and stood up. He was afraid that someone would be perfunctory, so he was prepared to explain the matter clearly.
The old official was stunned. He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Thinking of the various deeds of the Dao Ancestor, he immediately understood the Emperor’s thoughts.
However, could they really obtain the protection of the Dao Ancestor if they did that?
After more than half a year of publicity, everyone on the Dragon Vein
Continent knew the name of the Great Wilderness and the dangers it posed. Some panicked, while others did not believe it. However, in the end, they had to accept the fact that the Dragon Vein Continent had come to the Great Wilderness.
In April, after Jiang Che stabilized the affairs of the dynasty, he began to organize the Shuntian Army to explore the Great Wilderness. Not only the imperial court, but the martial arts world had also set off a trend of exploration. This was because someone had discovered a ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in the Great Wilderness, and they had encountered it as soon as they left the border. As soon as the news spread, all the martial artists in the world went crazy.
Even Longqi Temple could not help but send their disciples to explore.
Jiang Changsheng did not stop them. Currently, the Dragon Vein Continent was extremely far from the area where ferocious beasts were active. In the next few years ago, it would be very difficult for martial artists to encounter powerful ferocious beasts. Even if they did, it would be their fate.
Since they had come to the Great Wilderness, they would have to face everything sooner or later.
At the very least, there was no intrigue here, and the current dynasties could not threaten the ferocious beasts.
Jiang Changsheng had spent half a day spying on the Great Wilderness. He covered an incomparably vast area and he could not see any traces of other humans or demons. What he saw was just ferocious beasts that lived like wild beasts.
The humans of the Dragon Vein Continent were very likely the only humans on the Great Wilderness!
Jiang Changsheng’s scope of prying had reached the level of his previous prying into the endless ocean. At the moment, there was no trace of any other force on such a vast land.
However, he saw some terrifying beasts that were even larger than a Demon Saint.
When he broke through to the ninth level of the Dao Technique, he was prepared to go out and fill up the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Right now, he focused on his cultivation!
On this day, Ji Wujun, Lin Haotian, Ye Xun, Jiang Jian, Ping’an, and the Sword God all wanted to stroll around the Great Wilderness. With the six of them joining hands, Jiang Changsheng was relieved, so he agreed.
Only he, Mu Lingluo, Bai Qi, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian were left in the courtyard.
It was not easy for Mu Lingluo to see Jiang Changsheng, and she could not bear to leave. As for Bai Qi, she wanted to keep an eye on her as she did not want to lose her position in Jiang Changsheng’s heart.
Huang Tian and Hei Tian wanted to go out, but Jiang Changsheng was worried that their bloodline would attract the attention of ferocious beasts. After all, these two guys were talented enough to be added into the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Mu Lingluo sat beside Jiang Changsheng, meditating and training together.
Feeling her by his side, Jiang Changsheng felt as if he had returned to a hundred years ago. However, Hua Jianxin did not like to train at that time and preferred to take care of their grandson.
Bai Qi came over and licked Jiang Changsheng’s hand. “Master, are you not interested in the Great Wilderness?”
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and said, “My eyes have already seen the scenery of the Great Wilderness. Why do I need to go again?”
Bai Qi rolled his eyes and asked, “Master, when can my bloodline transform, just like White Dragon? No one else is here now. Can you reveal it to me?”
“It’s not time yet.”
Jiang Changsheng’s words made Bai Qi over the moon.
As long as it was not a direct rejection, she was happy.
She had waited for so many years, so she was not afraid to wait.
Mu Lingluo opened her eyes and curiously asked, “Bloodline transformation? What’s that?”
Bai Qi smiled proudly and said, “Previously, Master raised a snake and later turned it into a True Dragon. This is real. You can go down the mountain and inquire about it. Everyone in the capital has seen it.”
Huang Tian and Hei Tian ran over and asked about their transformation as well. They also wanted to transform their bloodlines. Even though they had extraordinary talent, they looked similar to domestic cats, especially Huang Tian. It felt that it was not domineering enough.
Jiang Changsheng did not say anything else. Bai Qi was furious and began to pat the two cat demons. For a moment, the courtyard became noisy again.
Mu Lingluo could not help but laugh when she saw that.
She whispered, “Brother Changsheng, these days are really good. You can train in peace and not be bored. Most importantly, I have you by my side.”
Jiang Changsheng smiled. It was fine as long as she could adapt to her current life.
The atmosphere of exploring the Great Wilderness had lasted for a long time.
According to the game in his previous life, this was probably called pioneering.
The desire for the exploration was very high, and it was difficult to stop for a short time.
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
In the 17th year of the Taihe Era, in these past three years, a total of eight dynasties chose to join Great Jing. As Great Jing expanded, the citizens were accustomed to it. Great Jing was busy developing the surrounding territory of the Great Wilderness, and it was tolerant of other dynasties. If they were willing to join, they would be able to join. If they were unwilling, Great Jing would not force them.
Gradually, the various dynasties showed signs of becoming one.
Early in September, noon.
After Ji Wujun returned, the others were still wandering around the Great Wilderness.
Bai Qi curiously asked, “Why are you back?”
Ji Wujun said, “After walking around, I found that there was indeed no trace of humans in the Great Wilderness, nor were there any inheritances left behind by humans. This must be a place that humans have never set foot in, so I came back. For me, those rare treasures are not attractive.”
Her talent was already outstanding, and she could not feel any bottlenecks for the time being. All this while, her strength had been increasing steadily.
After Ji Wujun said that, she looked at Jiang Changsheng and saw him sitting on a tree branch with two fingers of his right hand in front of him, as if he was casting a spell.
She then looked at Mu Lingluo and asked in a low voice, “What is the Dao Ancestor doing?”
Mu Lingluo said, “I don’t know either. It has been a while.”
Bai Qi also looked at Jiang Changsheng.
At that moment, Jiang Changsheng was using the Inviting God with Incense function to help a believer.
Even though he was in the Great Wilderness, he could still take care of the believers scattered in the endless ocean.
On a distant continent, the demonic aura turned into dark clouds that blotted out the sky and covered the sun as it surged.
Countless demon beasts were entrenched in the air. Leading them was a huge lion covered in flames. Its shoulders were a thousand feet tall and it had three heads. The wings on its back were nearly three thousand feet wide and there was a bone spike that was similar to a curved sword at the end of its tail. As it waved it, it flickered with a cold glint.
It was spitting fire crazily, and the boundless sea of fire sprinkled on the city below. However, the city was isolated by a mysterious force, stopping the sea of fire from falling on them.
Beneath the sea of fire, there was a middle-aged man in iron armor floating in the air. He held a shield in his left hand and a spear in his right. He was floating in the air alone, resisting the sea of fire.
“Titan Pangu, please give me more strength!”
The middle-aged man’s expression was ferocious as he roared in his heart. His muscles tensed and true qi covered the entire city. He had reached his limit and his figure was slowly falling.
Jiang Changsheng immediately possessed his body, but the power of the Inviting God with Incense depended on the possessor’s endurance. Even with the help of the incense function, it was impossible for an ordinary person to withstand the full power of a Martial King realm expert. The strongest power this middle-aged man could withstand was only within the Eight Grotto-heaven realm.
The three-headed demon lion that was acting recklessly above them had reached the strength of a Nine Grotto-heaven realm expert!
Furthermore, it was the subordinate of a Demon Saint!
“Foolish human martial artist, do you want to rely on your strength to block this king’s anger?”
The three-headed demon lion released a muffled roar that echoed between heaven and earth. The power of the sea of fire that enveloped the city increased greatly.
The middle-aged man was pressed down and more and more martial artists flew out of the city. All of them circulated their true qi and assisted the middle-aged man to resist, but their combined strength was not enough.
Jiang Changsheng frowned. If this continued, everyone in this city would die. The density of his worshippers in this city was one of the highest in the entire continent.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and sent out a clone to land in the courtyard. The Sun Shooting Divine Bow appeared out of thin air and landed in the hands of his clone.
The clone drew the bow and aimed at the sky.
The Da Yi World Piercing Arrow could prevent the enemy from finding the direction the arrow came from. Previously, Sky Crow Clan could track his aura, but now that he was no longer afraid, he could now hide his location.
Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian widened their eyes and looked at Jiang Changsheng’s clone in disbelief.
Why were there two Dao Ancestors?
