Chapter 265: Great God of Salvation, Lord of Hell

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Year 50 of the Taihe Era. It had been two years since the fall of the Seven Great Demon Saints.

In two years, Jiang Changsheng’s incense value skyrocketed. The group of humans he saved went around proclaiming his strength and merit. As they did not know his name, they respectfully called him the Great God of Salvation.

In the past two years, he did not let his clone go out to expand the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror. Instead, he focused on his cultivation and let his clone refine medicinal pills.

He was mainly worried that the demons would attack on a large scale, so it would be safer to have two supreme treasures with him.

Finally, after two years, the clone was finally able to refine the flesh and blood of Demon Saints into a pill suitable for martial artists to temper their bodies.

The seven huge corpses were still in the Dao World and had been frozen by the Great Ice Seal.

Jiang Changsheng called Mu Lingluo and Qing’er over and asked them to temper their bodies together. At the same time, he also refined many Demon Saint Body Tempering Pills and distributed them to Longqi Temple and Jiang Che.

Jiang Che was nurturing the Jiang Family’s strength. Even though the Jiang Family controlled the imperial power, they could not be weak in terms of strength. Once the difference in martial arts strength between the imperial family and the martial arts families was too great and the Dao Ancestor was suddenly absent, the imperial power could be easily overturned.

The ambition of humans was immeasurable. Jiang Che believed that as long as the Dao Ancestor disappeared for a period of time, those ambitious people would not be able to restrain themselves.

On this day.

Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and looked to the south as he started to calculate.

The most powerful existence in the endless ocean was still worth 1.3 billion incense points, which was Emperor Wu Ren.

This meant that the demons had not investigated him for the time being. The death of the Seven Great Demon Saints was enough to intimidate all the demon beasts other than the Demon Supreme.

As for the Demon Supreme, he did not take any action. It was unknown if he had yet to recover from his injuries or if he was afraid of him.

In any case, this was a good thing. He could cultivate in peace and constantly strengthen his helpers.

The demon race would not be his only enemy in the future. The Sacred Dynasty had prophesied that all races would rise, and the real struggle had yet to begin. He still had to work hard to become stronger.

Through the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth, Jiang Changsheng did not see the demon army heading north. It was made since he was covered in treasures, so the demons did not know who he was or where he came from.

After the fall of the Seven Great Demon Saints, the forces of the demon race at sea collapsed and countless demon beasts fled, fearing that they would be punished by that Great God who saved suffering humans. Precisely because of this, the dynasties in the endless ocean obtained breathing space and the name of the Great God of Salvation became more and more widespread. It even overshadowed Pangu and Xuan Bird. As for the name of the Dao Ancestor, it had yet to spread throughout the endless ocean and only people in the sea near the Dragon Vein Continent knew about him.

Jiang Changsheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the six medicinal cauldrons in the courtyard. The medicinal cauldrons where Ji Wujun and the other two girls were located were all frozen, making it impossible to peek inside.

He arranged his clone to continue concocting medicinal pills, while he used the Five Elements Evasion Technique to burrow underground.

After burrowing all the way down, he came to a vast underground world.

The surface of the area was embedded with many gems, bringing light to the underground world. The World Destruction Tree that supported the earth was now even larger than before.

As it absorbed the luck of Skyview Land, it continued to grow stronger.

Jiang Changsheng came to it. It had yet to notice as it was still sleeping soundly.

Staying underground was extremely boring, so it usually slept most of the time. Even when it slept, it was steadily getting stronger.

Jiang Changsheng released Hell and placed it in front of the World Destruction Tree before waking it up.

The face of the World Destruction Tree opened its eyes. When it saw that it was Jiang Changsheng, it hastily spoke respectfully.

Its gaze then landed on Hell. After Hell landed on the ground, it became extremely huge, similar to a mountain. Waves of black gas emerged from Hell and spread to the ground.

What an evil thing!

The World Destruction Tree thought to itself. When it saw Hell, it felt inexplicably flustered.

“This is Hell. It will gather all the souls in the world. You are responsible for protecting it, ” Jiang Changsheng said.

Gathering souls?

The World Destruction Tree could not help but be curious.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Hell will establish the order of reincarnation and will rule life and death. If you can protect it, you might become one of the immortals who manages the reincarnation cycle in the future.”

The moment he said that, the World Destruction Tree was instantly ignited with passion. It said excitedly, “Don’t worry, I will protect it with my life!”

In its heart, Jiang Changsheng had always been an immortal god, so it would not question his words.

Demons could also become gods?

The World Destruction Tree was looking forward to it. The way it looked at Hell had changed, becoming fiery.

Jiang Changsheng walked into Hell. From the outside, Hell looked like a palace building. In fact, there was a world of its own inside. There were many palaces and buildings scattered inside. There was a dazzling lineup of stone statues and bronze statues.

He could sense that the karmic power of Hell had been activated and spread throughout the entire Skyview Land.

There were many souls in the world that had yet to reincarnate for various reasons and remained in the world. These entities were called evil spirits, and the Head of Punishment and Yin Skeleton were such evil spirits.

“We have to find a Lord of Hell to control the order of Hell.

Jiang Changsheng thought silently. The first person he thought of was the Head of Punishment.

The Head of Punishment had assisted the Jiang Family for more than two hundred years and was proficient in the management of power. He was very suitable to manage such a place.

After strolling around for a while, Jiang Changsheng left Hell and returned to the surface.

He sent a voice transmission to the Head of Punishment and asked him to prepare to hand over his power and position before looking for him.

Even though the Head of Punishment was puzzled, he did not dare to question him. He immediately found Jiang Che and brought up the matter.

“What? You want to leave? You want me to find someone else to replace you? But who can I find?”

Jiang Che frowned. The Head of Punishment was the most perfect and loyal subordinate. He could help him resolve many things in the open and in the dark. Furthermore, he did not have to worry about the Head of Punishment betraying him.

The Head of Punishment said, “The Dao Ancestor has ordered that from now on, I no longer have to assist the Jiang Family. He wants to assign me a greater mission.”

When he heard that the order was from the Dao Ancestor, Jiang Che’s brows relaxed, but he was still reluctant. He sighed and said, “If you leave, who should I rely on?”

The Head of Punishment said, “You are the Emperor, everyone under the sky is under your command.”

The ruler and official began to reminisce about the past. The Head of Punishment was not in a hurry. Jiang Changsheng did not ask him to rush to Longqi Mountain immediately.

The next morning, Jiang Che came with the box that carried the Head of Punishment and handed it to Jiang Changsheng.

The three ice sculptures in the courtyard did not attract Jiang Che’s interest, but Jiang Changsheng’s clone made his eyelids twitch. He looked at Jiang

Changsheng and could not help but ask, “Dao Ancestor, what do you want the

Head of Punishment to do?”

Jiang Changsheng took the box and said, “He has contributed to the Jiang Family for more than two hundred years. His merits have been fulfilled, so he should ascend.”

Ascend?

Those who were quenching their bodies in the medicinal cauldron opened their eyes and listened.

Jiang Che was also stunned, and his heart was in turmoil. He carefully asked, “Is the Head of Punishment going to become an immortal like you?”

“That’s right.”

“Then 1…”

“You are an Emperor of Luck. This is not a form of training, but a blessing for you.”

Jiang Changsheng interrupted Jiang Che. Jiang Che smiled bitterly and felt that he had gone too far.

Even though he was tired, he knew that no matter how tired he was, he was

still above millions of people. He stood at the peak of Skyview Land and controlled the life and death of everyone on this land. No one had a better life than him, and his complaints were based on ambitions that countless people did not dare to imagine.

After a while, Jiang Che left.

Bai Qi could not help but ask, “Are you being serious?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “The truth is not that important. Immortal encounters cannot be forced. Don’t think too much about it.

Then, he picked up the box and burrowed underground.

Arriving in Hell, Jiang Changsheng released the Head of Punishment. He used his magic power to integrate the karmic power of Hell with the Head of Punishment, which was equivalent to giving the Head of Punishment the power to control Hell.

This process required time because the Head of Punishment was not strong enough, so it could not be rushed.

During the process of integrating the power of cause and effect, the Head of Punishment received many memories of Hell. From shock to expectation, from fear to pleasant surprise.

So what the Dao Ancestor said was true!

Controlling the souls of the dead of the world and manipulating the cycle of reincarnation. If this was not the ability of an immortal god, then what was?

A full two months passed.

The Head of Punishment had finally become the Lord of Hell, and the first batch of souls from Skyview Land had also entered Hell one after another.

Jiang Changsheng’s main body returned to the courtyard, and everything in Hell was handed over to the Head of Punishment.

At present, Hell did not have the ability to reincarnate the dead. It still needed to accumulate a certain number of dead souls and increase the power of cause and effect before it could integrate with the rules of reincarnation in the martial arts world.

Mu Lingluo and Ji Wujun had finished tempering their bodies, and Qing’er had returned to Longqi Temple.

The two women came to Jiang Changsheng and curiously asked where could the Head of Punishment become an immortal god.

Jiang Changsheng said, “I can’t say. The heavenly secrets cannot be revealed.”

Ji Wujun lamented, “In that case, there is more than one immortal god. Don’t other races also have the protection of immortal gods?”

Jiang Changsheng could not answer that question. Even though he was the only one who cultivated in this world, he did not know the situation outside the heavens. Even if other races did not have the protection of immortal gods, they might have the protection of stronger ancestors.

The existence of the Outerworld Devil River forced him to have reservations about the outside world.

Seeing that Jiang Changsheng stayed silent, Ji Wujun felt that his silence was another form of answer.

“Don’t tell anyone about this. Continue with your training.”

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and went to the Earth Spirit Tree to meditate.

His clone walked into his body and fused with him. He then created another clone and let it leave with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.

Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, and Bai Qi began to fantasize about the world of immortal gods. Even though Jiang Changsheng was cultivating with his eyes closed, he was also quietly listening.

If he was really the only immortal cultivator in the world, then he could construct the system of immortal gods in the future. Now, he was just listening to the thoughts of mortals to act as a reference for the future.

Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty, inside the palace hall.

Emperor Li Ya had a strange expression on his face as he listened to the officials’ report.

“The Great God of Salvation? Don’t tell me it’s the Dao Ancestor?”

Li Ya had an inexplicable thought. In his opinion, how could there be so many immortal gods in the world? It would be good enough if there was even one.

It was also in line with the image of the Dao Ancestor. The Dao Ancestor also relied on a mysterious sun to cover his face.

An old official excitedly said, “The fall of the Seven Great Demon Saints will curb the invasion of the demon race. For the next few decades, Fengtian will not have to worry about the invasion of the demon race. Fengtian still has a chance to become a Sacred Dynasty!”

Not only him, but the other civil and military officials were also very excited.

If Fengtian could succeed, why would they have to surrender to other Sovereign Dynasties? Previously, they were only afraid that Fengtian would not be able to withstand the demons’ invasion.

Li Ya slowly said, “It seems like there are really immortals in this world. I can use this matter to publicize Lightning God Li Yi and let the people know that Fengtian is also protected by immortal gods..”
