Bai Qi opened his eyes and angrily said, “Of course not. Master, could it be that you have taken a fancy to another genius?”

Hearing this, Ji Wujun also looked at Jiang Changsheng.

She was very convinced by Jiang Changsheng’s ability to uncover geniuses.

Jiang Changsheng glanced at Bai Qi in surprise.

Could it be that this guy was also a lucky ferocious beast who could see through his thoughts?

That was not right. If it was really a luck species, how could Bai Qi not be able to be recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?

Huang Tian shouted, “I am also a genius. Why can’t it be me?”

“We’ll talk about it when you grow up.” “I can beat you right now.” “You dare to attack me? Are you rebelling?”

“I’m just talking about strength..

Bai Qi started to lecture Huang Tian again, and the courtyard became noisy again.

No matter how many people there were, as long as the three demons were here, it would always become lively.

Jiang Changsheng did not feel annoyed when he saw them fooling around. Instead, he found it interesting.

Li Yi had become a god envoy of incense, but it was difficult for him to bring a large number of incense offerings in a short time. He was not in a hurry. In any case, he could afford to wait.

Jiang Changsheng continued to cultivate.

Even though he was comparable to the supreme demon, he could not fall behind in his training.

Next was to break through to the next level of the Dao Technique and become a true free and unfettered immortal god. Then, he would break the rules of the martial arts world and let the people around him ascend to the heavens, allowing the worshipers to follow him.

If martial arts could not pacify the world and eliminate the conflicts between myriad races, the Immortal Dao would take the responsibility!

With such aspirations, Jiang Changsheng was overwhelmed with emotions.

Even though his real goal was to become invincible and live forever, he would not be stingy if he could help the people and believers around him on this path.

Time flew by like an arrow. Three years had passed, and the 40th year of the Taihe Era had arrived.

While the humans in the endless ocean were suffering and busy fighting, Great Jing was still developing steadily.

As the luck of the dynasty became stronger, many geniuses appeared in Great Jing. The disciple of the former Minister of Luck, Han Tianji, founded the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets to collect information about the martial arts world. At the beginning of this year, he established the Genius List, which listed the thirty most talented people on the land. To be ranked on the list, it would depend on their speed of breakthrough and their fighting strength at the same level, regardless of what realm they were in.

Lin Haotian was ranked first, followed by Jiang Jian. Ye Xun and Mu Lingluo were also on the list.

The Dao Ancestor, Guan Tongyou, Zhu Tianzhi, and the other top experts were not on the list. The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had also provided an explanation. They did not know the strength of experts who were in the Three Grotto-heaven realm or higher, so they were not included. Therefore, this explanation was recognized by everyone in the world.

The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had also released many ranking boards, completely mobilizing the enthusiasm of all the martial artists to practice martial arts. The high-spiritedness of the children of the martial arts world had spread throughout the land, causing the citizens at the bottom to yearn for the martial arts world.

“Dao Ancestor, your suggestions are pretty good. The number of new martial artists in the Martial House has increased by 30% this year.”

Chen Li said with a smile. Then, he raised his glass and respectfully toasted.

Jiang Changsheng swirled his wine glass and said, “I just gave a suggestion. It’s all thanks to you that it can be realized.”

Looking at Chen Li in this life, Jiang Changsheng felt a sense of accomplishment.

His only good friend was doing well in this life and did not have to die prematurely. He really wanted to meet Chen Li from his previous life and see his reaction.

After Chen Li said a lot of flattery, he went straight to the point and said, “Dao Ancestor, I would like to ask Senior Ji for help. Great Qi has discovered an underground palace that contains powerful demons that even the Dragon Transformation Mansion can’t do anything to. And I heard that Senior Ji is even stronger than Manor Head Zhu.”

Jiang Changsheng looked at Ji Wujun and said, “You can decide for yourself.”

Ji Wujun hesitated for a moment and said, “Alright, I’ll take a look.” Chen Li beamed with joy and hastily toasted her.

Bai Qi curiously asked, “Guan Tongyou is not going to take action?”

Chen Li said, “After Senior Guan broke through to a higher realm, he went to the depths of the Great Wilderness to hunt, so we happened to miss him.”

Guan Tongyou’s net worth had exceeded 50 million incense points, and he had officially stepped into the Martial King realm!

He had been stuck in the Nine Grotto-heaven realm for quite a while. So, he was using the Heaven-Deriving Martial Law to absorb the tendons and bones of ferocious beasts, ushering in another period of soaring growth in strength.

Jiang Changsheng was also filled with expectations for Guan Tongyou. If Great Jing wanted to be powerful, it could not rely on just one person. Moreover, he was busy cultivating.

Guan Tongyou was already his die-hard believer. No matter how powerful he was, he would never betray Jiang Changsheng. Moreover, no matter how powerful his Heaven-Deriving Martial Law was, it was impossible for him to surpass Jiang Changsheng.

After the time for an incense stick to burn, Ji Wujun left with Chen Li.

Bai Qi came over and licked the back of Jiang Changsheng’s hand. She smiled and said, “Master, look. In the end, I am the one who has always accompanied you. I am the most loyal to you.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and asked, “Is that so?”

“Of course, I will follow you for the rest of my life. I will do whatever you want me to do.”

Bai Qi immediately promised. She wanted Jiang Changsheng to modify her bloodline and transform into a dragon like White Dragon.

Jiang Changsheng pinched her head and rubbed it hard, making her dizzy.

“Don’t be so cheeky. Train well. I will help you improve your bloodline, but not yet. You are not strong enough. If I do it now, I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold on.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled. Even though Bai Qi would not die for him, she was the person who had accompanied him the longest.

Although she did not dare to die for him, it was not that he was disloyal. Just like him, he would not die for anyone. He could tolerate the people around him because he was strong enough. He would never forget his original goal of cultivation.

When Bai Qi heard that, she immediately beamed with joy and hurried back to cultivate.

Huang Tian looked at Bai Qi with contempt. It had been raised by Bai Qi since it was young, so even if it was stronger than Bai Qi, it did not dare to retaliate. However, Bai Qi’s personality made it hard for it to respect her.

Jiang Changsheng thought for a moment and sent out a clone to leave with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.

His clone had half of his magic power, which was enough to run wild in the Great Wilderness. The clone could help him expand the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror so that he could cultivate in peace.

Bai Qi and the two cat demons were no longer surprised by his clone, so they did not exclaim or discuss it.

The courtyard soon fell into silence.

The wasteland was boundless. Reddish-brown soil covered the earth, making it look desolate.

Jiang Jian, Lin Haotian, and Ping’an walked side by side in a canyon while the Sky Thunder Eagle hovered above the sky.

Pingan held a roasted piece of meat in his hand and ate it with his mouth full of oil and a smile on his face.

Lin Haotian turned his head and asked, “Do you feel it?”

Jiang Jian opened his third eye and answered, “It should be right ahead. The luck is getting stronger and stronger. The other party did not move, and the luck is not fluctuating. It seems like it’s a rare treasure.”

Lin Haotian’s eyes brightened when he heard that, and he looked forward to it even more.

The three of them walked along the winding canyon. After a long time, they stopped.

Following their line of sight, a huge cave entrance appeared on a mountain wall in front of them. It was bottomless and from time to time, wind would howl out, forming the illusionary sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling.

“Is it inside?” Lin Haotian asked.

Jiang Jian nodded and said, “Be careful. I feel that there is danger inside. There are often powerful ferocious beasts waiting near the rare treasure.”

“Understood!”

The three of them walked towards the entrance of the cave. Ping’an seemed to have sensed something and threw the roasted meat in his hand into the sky. The Sky Thunder Eagle quickly caught it.

Then, the three of them walked into the cave and disappeared into the darkness.

The 41st year of the Taihe Era, a new spring had arrived.

Ye Xun and the Sword God had returned. Both of them had broken through. Ye

Xun had already stepped into the Three Grotto-heaven realm while the Sword God was in the Two Grotto-heaven realm.

“Guan Tongyou’s Heaven-Deriving Martial Law is really amazing. It’s too suitable for practicing martial arts in the Great Wilderness.” Ye Xun smiled.

The Heaven-Deriving Martial Law had spread to every corner of the Skyview Land. Together with Saint Qi’s Dao of Civil and Martial Arts, it was known as Great Jing’s national martial arts techniques. Everyone could learn them. There were even a large number of scholars who tried to study deeply about the two national martial arts techniques.

Bai Qi asked, “In that case, why did you come back?”

Ye Xun glared at it and said, “What are you talking about? Can’t we come back and see the Dao Ancestor?”

The Sword God chuckled and said, “That’s right.”

Jiang Changsheng was also satisfied with their progress. He could see that the two of them finally recovered their spirits.

Ever since Ji Wujun and Lin Haotian joined, they had not been confident. After all, the talents of these newcomers were terrifying.

Ye Xun took out a stone slab from his storage ring and said, “Dao Ancestor, this is something the two of us obtained by chance. I’ll give it to you. Take a look and see what’s so special about it.”

With the discovery of a large number of space stones, storage rings were no longer rare. Now, storage rings had become a standard item for exploring the Great Wilderness.

Jiang Changsheng took the slab. He could sense the mysterious luck hidden inside.

His spiritual will directly entered the stone slab.

Boom!

Jiang Changsheng’s spiritual will suffered an impact, but his spiritual will was so powerful that it was not affected at all. He forcefully resisted the impact and entered the deeper layer of the slab. As he delved deeper, he felt a layer of seals.

In the Martial Dao, there were sealing techniques. For example, dragon veins were some kind of powerful seal.

He forcefully broke the seals and his spiritual will was pulled into a memory.

His spiritual will suddenly appeared in an underground space. The rock ceiling here was ten thousand feet high, forming a world of its own. Different ferocious beasts crawled on all sides.

Among them, there were several ferocious beasts who had been recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Jiang Changsheng looked in the direction the ferocious beasts were facing. Hundreds of miles away, a figure stood on a huge stone platform. It was a Naga similar to Tai Wa and Tai Xi. She was only a hundred feet tall and looked very short compared to other ferocious beasts. However, her temperament was extremely powerful and her eyes were cold.

It was a female Naga. She was beautiful and cold. Her long hair was tied up with a bone hairpin. Three stone slabs floated in her hand. They were the slabs Ye Xun had given to Jiang Changsheng, but they were not that big.

The female Naga slowly said, “A new era is coming, and the imperial family of the Great Wilderness is about to make a comeback. Tell your compatriots to go to the temple of the imperial family of the Great Wilderness and prepare for the sacrifice.’

This was the first time Jiang Changsheng had heard of the imperial family of the Great Wilderness.

At the front, an old rock turtle as large as a mountain asked, “May I ask what we can obtain from the resurrection of the imperial family?”

The female Naga glanced at it and said, “The right to follow the imperial family.”

The old rock turtle was silent. The other ferocious beasts spoke one after another, all of them dissatisfied.

The entire underground space became extremely noisy.

After a long wait.

The female Naga waited for them to finish before she said, “The sky is about to break. If the imperial family does not recover, the Great Wilderness will usher in a calamity. No, the entire world will usher in a calamity. Either you sacrifice some of your compatriots in exchange for the imperial family to mend the sky, or you wait for the sky to break open and for the Outerworld Devil River to drown all living beings in the Great Wilderness.”

The old rock turtle asked, “When will the sky break?”

“In less than ten thousand years at the latest, and sacrificing for the imperial family also takes time. There’s not much time left.”

The female Naga said unhurriedly. As soon as she finished speaking, this memory ended.

Jiang Changsheng narrowed his eyes and carefully sensed the luck in the slab. He could sense that it had existed for thousands of years, but he could not accurately estimate..
