Chapter 339: Devil River Descends, Decisive Battle of the Immortal Gods

Translator: Henyee Translations       Editor: Henyee Translations

In the 57th year of the Immortal Era, the commotion of the Dao Ancestor rewarding his worshipers with the fates of immortal gods finally began to subside. The armies of Heavenly Jing also began to return. At present, Heavenly Jing did not have any plans to expand. Just the area between the northern region of the Juqiang Province and Heavenly Jing was enough for Heavenly Jing to digest. There was no need to continue expanding when there were sufficient resources.

The Crown Prince, Jiang Ziyu, also returned to Jingcheng to meet the Emperor.

Inside the Purple Cloud Palace.

Jiang Ziyu bowed and said with a smile, “Every time I come in, I feel refreshed. Father, your palace is not simple!”

Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said, “Of course not. But don’t even think about it. When I ascend, I will take this palace with me.”

Jiang Ziyu sat down as well and said with a smile, “I naturally don’t dare to ask for something so extravagant.”

The father and son began to chat. Jiang Changsheng asked him to tell him about his experiences during this period of time. As soon as he said that, Jiang Ziyu became excited. Evidently, he had been in high spirits all these years.

He was extremely talented. At the age of 55, he had already reached the Eight Grotto-Heaven Realm. His breakthrough speed was even faster than Jiang Tianming’s. He was indeed the number one talent of Heavenly Jing.

Other than Jiang Changsheng, he was the only one with the bloodline of an immortal in this world. Furthermore, he had the bloodline of an immortal that was integrated with martial arts. His comprehension and aptitude far exceeded ordinary people’s imagination.

Disregarding Jiang Changsheng’s immortal bloodline, the bloodline of ordinary Heavenly Origin Ultimate Martial Realm experts was already peerless in the martial world.

When Jiang Ziyu was strong enough, Jiang Changsheng would cede the throne and hand over Heavenly Jing to him again.

“I finally understand Taizong’s ambition. The world is so big. Wouldn’t it be a pity if it can’t all belong to Heavenly Jing?” Jiang Ziyu smiled.

Due to the fact that he had the same name and surname as Taizong, Bai Qi, Ye Xun, and the others often teased him about being similar to Taizong, making him increasingly interested in him. After he understood Taizong’s life experiences, he held him in high esteem. Even though Great Jing was very weak at that time, from Taizong’s choice in the face of that environment, he felt that if Taizong had lived until the end of the Great Jing Dynasty, there would not have been any internal strife.

Jiang Changsheng said, “The world will be yours in the future. Whether you can make up for your regrets will depend on you. However, it will be difficult to unify the Great Wilderness within your generation. You need to nurture your descendants well.”

Jiang Ziyu scratched his head and smiled. “I don’t have any children yet, and I don’t know how to nurture them.”

“There’s a first time for everything. When you break through to the Great Paragon Realm, prepare to ascend the throne.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled. His words made Jiang Ziyu’s blood boil.

Who would not want to be the emperor?

Ever since Jiang Changsheng ascended the throne, there was no limit to the emperor’s lifespan. At the very least, he would not die prematurely. Under such circumstances, the throne became even more attractive. However, everyone knew that the next emperor had been decided and no one could shake it.

The father and son chatted for a long time. When he learned that Jiang Ziyu had also begun to create his own martial arts techniques, Jiang Changsheng was rather gratified. The current Jiang Ziyu seemed to overlap with the former Jiang Ziyu.

It was not about his talent, but his unwillingness to admit defeat.

After Jiang Ziyu left, Jiang Changsheng slowly raised his head. His gaze pierced through the Purple Cloud Palace, the sky, and the outer world.

The vast Celestial River was approaching the Great Wilderness Martial World, which indicated that his decisive battle with the Great Wilderness Divine Lord was about to arrive.

This was a decisive battle that could not be lost!

Jiang Changsheng silently calculated the strongest expert the Great Wilderness Divine Lord could invite, but he still could not calculate it. Since he could not calculate it, it meant that it was an enemy he could not defeat.

“Let me have a good look at the power of a Divine Lord.”

The world was peaceful, and the people of Heavenly Jing were getting richer and richer. More and more ferocious beasts and people from foreign races began to enter various parts of Heavenly Jing. Some came to trade, some were captured and used as coolies. There were all kinds of situations. There were also foreign people that began to integrate into the luck of Heavenly Jing and become true citizens.

In the end, Di Chang, a descendant of the Imperial Race, chose to compromise and brought with him a large number of martial arts techniques from the Imperial Race. Jiang Changsheng asked Chen Li to receive him. In the next few years, the martial arts techniques of the Imperial Race quietly began to spread, causing all kinds of martial arts techniques to appear. There were even people who created puppet techniques, and they even planned to use a large number of wooden puppets to replace the work of the common people, so that they could relieve them of the burden of the common people. When this idea spread, they were regarded as gods by the common people. However, after the aristocratic families joined in and raised the price of wooden puppets and repair fees, the commoners gave up on the idea.

Even so, puppet techniques had begun to be widely used. More and more martial artists would carry puppets with them. Most of them were made from the bones of ferocious beasts.

In addition to the creation of puppets, formation techniques also began to rise. The representative figure of this was the Sword God. He controlled a sword formation alone and imparted his ideas to other formation martial artists, attracting many martial artists to study it, causing the study of formations to spread rapidly.

All kinds of techniques flourished and condensed on Spirit Mountain. Spirit Mountain was a place where experts and geniuses gathered. It was an absolute holy land.

Occasionally, Chang Yaoling would go to the Spirit Mountain to observe the development of martial arts of the Human Race. Sometimes, she would even give them some pointers. Gradually, her reputation spread. No one knew her real name or her background. They only knew that she could freely go to Spirit Mountain, so they called her the Goddess of Spirit Mountain. They all thought that she was sent by the Dao Ancestor to guide all living beings.

As time passed, Chang Yaoling’s favorable impression of humans became stronger and stronger, and she also admired Jiang Changsheng more and more.

Moreover, the mysteriousness of Spirit Mountain and its ability to enhance one’s comprehension were amazing. Spirit Mountain was considered a rare treasure even in the Xuanhuang Great World. She wondered where the Dao Ancestor had moved it from.

However, she remembered that Divine Lord Zi Huan said that the Dao Ancestor was an anomaly and not a mortal in this world. Therefore, she would not compare him to a mortal.

Over the years, she had been learning about the legends of the Dao Ancestor. She increasingly felt that the Dao Ancestor might really be the reincarnation of an immortal god. However, she did not dare to tell Divine Lord Zi Huan for fear of being mocked.

There had always been legends about immortal gods in the Xuanhuang Great World, but in fact, those powerful ‘immortals’ were only powerful martial artists.

Years passed.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

It was the 67th year of the Immortal Era. In that year, Jiang Changsheng was now 402 years old. As for Jiang Ziyu, he was 65 years old. At this age, he already began to break through to the Martial King Realm. If he was successful, he would break the record for the fastest speed to reach the Martial King Realm in the history of the Great Wilderness. This caused everyone to discuss it. His reputation also began to spread to the myriad races in the Great Wilderness.

The Dao Ancestor’s strength allowed the myriad races to know that the rise of the Human Race was unstoppable. Jiang Ziyu’s talents were the real reason why the myriad races were terrified.

Chang Yaoling was also frightened by Jiang Ziyu, so she had no choice but to contact Divine Emperor Zi Huan.

“He wants to break through to the Martial King Realm at the age of 65? Tsk tsk, he’s indeed amazing. Even though he can’t compare to the prodigies of those Eternal Giants, he’s definitely one of the best among the three thousand martial worlds. At the very least, I’ve never heard of anyone from the Lower

Realm with better talent than him.”

Divine Lord Zi Huan was surprised. She paused for a moment and said, “It seems like I made the right decision to bet on the Dao Ancestor. In the future, when Jiang Ziyu and Jiang Tianming ascend, they can also serve me.”

Chang Yaoling remembered the existence of the Heavenly Court, so she said it out loud.

Divine Lord Zi Huan said disapprovingly, “That’s only for the Lower Realm. If they stay in the Lower Realm, they won’t be able to improve after reaching the Martial Emperor Realm. As long as they want to become stronger, they will have to ascend sooner or later.”

“Tell him that the Celestial River is coming. The Great Wilderness Divine Lord has also brought his five Martial Gods and his men along.”

“Why did he mobilize so many people? Since the Great Wilderness Divine Lord has personally taken action, why did he also bring so many subordinates”Perhaps he has other plans.”

Divine Lord Zi Huan casually said while Chang Yaoling was deep in thought.

That day, she went to visit Jiang Changsheng to inform him of this matter. In order to thank her for her help, Jiang Changsheng conferred her the title-Goddess of Spirit Mountain. Previously, it was what the martial arts world called her. Now that it was an imperial decree, she was flattered.

Soon, she understood Jiang Changsheng’s intentions. He wanted to pull her into the luck of Heavenly Jing, and she did not reject it. In her opinion, she needed to stay in Heavenly Jing for many years to become the link between the Dao Ancestor and Divine Lord Zi Huan. It was also a good thing to integrate with the luck of Heavenly Jing.

Late at night.

Jiang Changsheng’s mind wandered and his consciousness arrived outside the

Great Wilderness Martial World. He focused his gaze and saw that the Celestial River that was originally extremely far away from the Great Wilderness Martial World was now very close. The vast Celestial River was moving forward with countless stars.

He sensed the auras of many experts, six of which far exceeded the auras of everyone in the Great Wilderness.

They were hidden in the Celestial River!

Jiang Changsheng looked at them for a while, but he could not see where they were hiding. It seemed like there was a spatial barrier in the Celestial River that was isolated by the power of laws.

“What kind of world are these stars?”

Jiang Changsheng thought silently. He realized that the stars that flowed with the Celestial River were not powerful. In fact, they could even be said to be weak. He wondered if they were within the three thousand worlds.

Perhaps the Martial Dao World was not the lowest level world.

He estimated the speed of the Celestial River. It would arrive at the Great Wilderness Martial World in three years at most.

At the same time.

In a hall.

The Great Wilderness Divine Lord slowly opened his eyes. He frowned and muttered to himself, “Strange, why do I feel like I am being stared at?”

He carefully sensed the aura around the Celestial River, but he did not detect the aura of other living beings.

Could it be an illusion?

The Great Wilderness Divine Lord did not believe that he was hallucinating. There was only one possibility. The Celestial River was being watched by a powerful existence. That was normal. After all, it was not time for the Celestial River to descend.

When the Great Wilderness Divine Lord thought of this, he was no longer worried. In any case, Divine Lord Zi Huan was there to deal with it.

“The Longevity Pill will definitely be successful this time!”

Madness appeared in the Great Wilderness Divine Lord’s eyes.

He had no way out!

How fast was three years, especially for Heavenly Jing during peacetime?

It was now the 70th year of the Immortal Era. From February onwards, the weather began to change, and natural disasters appeared repeatedly everywhere. Even with the suppression of luck, it could not be completely stopped, causing many people to curse out loud.

Until one day in March, someone from the Sand Race brought a piece of news into Heavenly Jing. The rumored Outerworld Devil River that destroyed the Imperial Race of the Great Wilderness and brought calamity to all living beings was about to descend!

For a moment, the world was in turmoil.

There was also a commotion in Jingcheng, and inns on all streets were talking about it.

The Prime Minister Pavilion led by Chen Li, Venerable Bai, and Yang Che had no choice but to visit Jiang Changsheng. Jiang Changsheng chose to meet the three prime ministers.

“I have already expected the arrival of the Outerworld Devil River. There is no need to panic. This is a great calamity caused by the God of Heaven and Earth in order to eliminate the Human Race. I will bear this calamity alone. You can pass down my orders and clarify this matter so that the people of the world will not panic.”

Jiang Changsheng said without opening his eyes.

The God of Heaven and Earth!

The three prime ministers’ eyelids twitched. However, they felt at ease when they heard that the Emperor wanted to take action alone. Even though Heavenly Jing was becoming stronger at a rapid pace, it could not withstand the attack of the Outerworld Devil River.

The decisive battle between the Dao Ancestor and the God of Heaven and Earth…

The Ancestor of All Immortals fighting against the God of a Martial Dao World?

The three prime ministers were secretly excited..
