Chapter 224: Incense Function, Shocking the World
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint was missing. Even though they were worried about the world, Ji Wuiun and the others had no choice but to concentrate on their training. As long as they continued to become stronger, they could withstand the impending calamity.
In the next month, the news of the dragon veins collapsing and the Dao Ancestor holding a sea spread throughout the entire Dragon Vein Continent and to the seas in the four cardinal directions.
Expectedly, Jiang Changsheng’s incense value skyrocketed again.
This time, more than eighty percent of the people on the Dragon Vein Continent had seen the spectacular celestial rivers and personally witnessed the miracle created by the Dao Ancestor. Now, they were no longer doubtful of his legends.
This trip to the sea reminded the people of the continent of his past, such as moving mountains, resurrecting the dead, turning beans into soldiers, and so on. The Dao Ancestor had completely become a god, at least in their hearts.
The growth of the incense offerings was no longer inferior to the increase brought about by the appearance of the Xuan Bird.
It had been a long time since Great Jing annexed other dynasties on the continent, so the dynasties’ impression of him had improved. Now that the Dao Ancestor had saved the continent, no matter which dynasty it was, a large number of commoners would appear to worship him and burn incense for him.
Time flew by.
Year 4 of the Taihe Era.
It was the middle of February, and the new spring had just passed.
[Current incense points: 698,094,998]
It was about to reach 700 million incense points!
At this rate, it could exceed one billion in five years.
This was still the lowest expectation. At the current speed of increase, it could only be higher.
When Jiang Changsheng designed the game in his previous life, he had put in a lot of thought into it. When a player exceeded one billion incense points, a new incense function would be activated.
The survival system had activated many functions for the incense points. The previous incense functions were not designed by him, so he did not have absolute confidence in the function.
In any case, it was a good thing to have expectations.
Jiang Changsheng looked at his incense points and was in a good mood as he waited for the guests.
Emperor Fengtian was here!
The real Emperor, this guy actually dared to reveal his name to Qing’er. He was really bold.
Seeing his boldness, Jiang Changsheng agreed to meet him.
Great Jing and Fengtian had always been enemies. However, the reason why they had stopped fighting all these years was because they were too far apart. Otherwise, Great Jing would have fought them long ago.
Ye Xun, the Sword God, and Jiang Jian were also very interested in Emperor Fengtian and were currently discussing why he had come.
Very soon, Qing’er came with Emperor Fengtian. Emperor Fengtian was dressed like a young master from a wealthy family. He was handsome and held a fan in his hand with a smile on his face. He was not nervous at all.
He entered the courtyard and swept his gaze around. Then, he walked to Jiang
Changsheng and bowed. “I am Emperor Fengtian, Li Ya. I am here to visit the
Dao Ancestor. Thank you for being willing to meet me.”
In the face of Jiang Changsheng, he did not call himself ‘This Emperor’ and his attitude was very low.
Jiang Changsheng did not say anything and merely stared at him calmly.
The Dao Ancestor’s silence made Li Ya nervous.
Fortunately, Jiang Jian spoke at this time. He asked, “You are the new emperor, right? Have you forgotten the grudge between Great Jing and Fengtian?”
Li Ya turned his head and said with a smile, “The battle for the luck between dynasties is a battle for the fate. How can it be considered a grudge? Right now, I am here as Li Ya not for the sake of the dynasty, but for my own business. I wish to establish a martial arts path and I hope that the Dao Ancestor can guide me. If the Dao Ancestor is willing, I am willing to leave behind a cultivation path after I succeed and let Great Jing carry out this martial arts path.”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Using luck to mobilize the spiritual energy of martial arts to display martial arts techniques is indeed an innovation. However, the reason why martial artists are martial artists is to strengthen their physique. Breaking through the limits of the physical body is called martial arts.”
Hearing this, Li Ya looked at Jiang Changsheng again and said, “Dao Ancestor is right, but hard work is not enough. The same is true of martial arts. Aptitude is similar to fate, limiting the future of too many martial artists. My martial arts are created for those with insufficient physical aptitude and let them borrow the luck of the dynasty. After all, the luck of the dynasty is accumulated by every commoner and they are qualified to use it.”
His words made everyone look at him in a new light.
This was the first time they had seen an emperor with such aspirations. The past emperors of Great Jing worked hard for the land and had never provided such thoughts.
Ji Wujun opened his mouth and said, “There was also a minister in the Sacred Dynasty who mentioned this idea. Unfortunately, it was suppressed by the generals. If you want to promote this kind of martial arts path, it will inevitably affect those powerful martial artists. After all, there is only so much luck. When you distribute it evenly, it will be a suppression for those martial artists who have grasped a lot of luck.”
Li Ya said, “It is naturally not suitable for a peaceful world. However, the demon calamity is about to come. Humans, from the civil servants and generals to the commoners, have to participate in the war. I only hope that they can have some fighting strength. Furthermore, my path can also make the strong stronger. If we encounter a demon that we cannot defeat, numbers are useless. If this path is created, isn’t it also a glimmer of hope for the strongest of a generation to gather the luck of an entire dynasty and double their strength
After Ji Wujun heard it, a trace of appreciation appeared in her eyes.
Jiang Changsheng also saw the word righteousness in Li Ya.
Perhaps he had his own selfish motives, but what he said could indeed increase the vitality of the human race.
Luck was mysterious. Humans and demons used luck to temper their physiques. One of the advantages of humans was that they could establish a Luck Dynasty and gather luck to protect the country and reduce disasters. Li Ya suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Changsheng. “Dao Ancestor, please guide me.”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Go to the Tiangang Province and find the Sect Master of the Dao Ancestor Sect, Saint Qi. When you see him, you will have an epiphany.”
Hearing this, Li Ya raised his head and revealed a hesitant expression. He helplessly said, “My identity has been exposed…”
“I will ask the Daoist Master of Longqi Temple to hide your arrival.”
“Thank you, Dao Ancestor. If I succeed, I will definitely visit you again before I leave and leave behind my cultivation method.” Li Ya said excitedly. ‘Saint Qi’ sounded like an expert.
He bowed again and left in a hurry.
Ye Xun said, “Do we really have to trust him? If he succeeds, Fengtian will become Great Jing’s rival again.”
Jiang Changsheng said calmly, “There are always things that should exceed the scope of dynasties. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the entire human race to advance.”
Ji Wujun praised, “The Dao Ancestor has a great plan. In the end, the essence of Luck Dynasties is still the ambition of a few people. It just so happens that it can benefit more people.”
Jiang Changsheng did not say anything else and focused on his cultivation.
Right now, he only had one goal, and that was to cultivate diligently to welcome the arrival of the Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint.
Even though the Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint might not necessarily come, he had to at least cultivate with it as his goal.
Of course, if the Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint were to come and he could not defeat it, he would not fight to the death.
But at present, he should be able to win.
The new Nine Absolute Flood Dragon Saint only had a powerful physique. Just a powerful physique, it could not unleash its full strength.
Blue sky with white clouds and a refreshing sea breeze.
Lin Haotian, who was dressed in black, sat on the back of the Sky Thunder Eagle. After so many years, his temperament had matured and there was a faint stubble on his face. Even the Sky Thunder Eagle had more scars and had become much larger.
“I wonder how far away Great Jing is. However, the people I met previously have heard of the name Tianhai. It should be close.
Lin Haotian muttered to himself as anticipation surfaced in his eyes.
However, he was also nervous.
He wondered what status Senior had in the Great Jing and what kind of people was by his side. How should he get along?
Ever since he experienced the Chenlan Sect, Lin Haotian had become more and more withdrawn. As a result, he almost could not make friends, and he no longer had his usual carefreeness and spirit.
Ming—
The Sky Thunder Eagle let out a cry, as if it was comforting Lin Haotian.
Lin Haotian smiled and patted its head. He was not lonely with it by his side.
At that moment, the Sky Thunder Eagle seemed to have sensed something and it was forced to stop.
Lin Haotian frowned and immediately stood up. He pulled out a huge sword from his back and prepared for a fight.
The sea breeze blew against his black clothes. He looked around but did not find any danger.
Just as he was about to speak, the end of the sea suddenly exploded and a huge beast rose like a huge mountain emerging from the bottom of the sea. The scene was shocking.
“That is…”
Lin Haotian looked over and could not help but open his mouth wide.
He saw a huge creature that looked like a huge whale floating at the end of the sea. Its body covered the sun, like a mountain range that was thousands of feet tall.
Along the way, Lin Haotian had seen many ancient mythical beasts, but he had never seen such a huge beast. Moreover, he could tell that the other party only revealed half of its body and the rest was hidden in the water.
Lin Haotian subconsciously wanted to retreat, but he suddenly noticed something and revealed a surprised expression.
After cultivating the Invincible Reincarnation Scripture, he was extremely sensitive to life. He could sense that the beast was lifeless, which meant that it was dead.
Such a huge beast had died…
There would not be an even more terrifying existence, right?
Lin Haotian told the Sky Thunder Eagle to fly high and stay away from the sea.
They did not leave immediately. Instead, they quietly watched.
This observation lasted for several days.
No more terrifying existences appeared, and no demon beasts approached.
Lin Haotian gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s go and take a look. What if there’s a huge opportunity!”
He had demon blood in his body, and devouring the flesh and blood of some powerful demon beasts could make him stronger. Even though the huge beast in front of him was dead, there was no rotten smell.
On a certain cliff, a white-robed man quietly meditated.
The mysterious man in the white bone mask appeared behind him. He half-knelt and said in a deep voice, “The Seven Great Demon Saints have all broken out of their seals and are sleeping in various sea areas. That existence has rushed to subdue them, but…
“But what?”
“This subordinate has heard of a strange matter.”
“Speak.”
The white-robed man did not open his eyes, as if he did not care.
The masked man said, “The continents with dragon veins all collapsed in on itself, and there were countless casualties. Some continents even directly split into archipelagos. However, only one continent is fine. That continent is located to the north of Tianhai, and it is known as the Dragon Vein Continent. A powerful existence named Dao Ancestor appeared on the continent. He actually lifted up the demonic sea formed by the demonic power of the Demon Saint and prevented the continent from collapsing. As a result, the entire Dragon Vein Continent was not affected by the broken seals of the Demon Saint.”
The white-robed man opened his eyes and frowned.
“It is said that the people of Tianhai and many other islands saw the Dao Ancestor leaving towards the south sea. When he left, boiling seawater and a large number of demon corpses appeared behind him, and this news has spread throughout dozens of sea areas. The Dao Ancestor’s name is now famous in the boundless ocean.
After the masked man finished speaking, his body trembled. It was obvious that his heart was not calm.
The white-robed man stood up and asked, “Lifted a sea? Did he really lift up the demonic sea?”
