Chapter 421: Leader of the Earth Immortals, Xianxia
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After setting the sermon 100 years later, Jiang Changsheng asked Bai Qi to wake him up on time. After that, he began to cultivate and delve into the twelfth level of the Dao Technique.
Even though the Immortal Dao had been established, it was still in the early stages. These new cultivators had yet to experience the feeling of being in seclusion for thousands of years. Jiang Changsheng’s old friends were all experiencing their exciting lives while he enjoyed being above time. Time flew by like a shuttle, and the spring and autumn of the human world alternated.
Heavenly Jing, on the peak of Spirit Mountain outside Jingcheng, thunderclouds surged.
There were people everywhere on the mountain looking up. Their expressions were either expectant, envious, or jealous.
Figures flew out from Jingcheng, including the Emperor, Jiang Xiu. He wore a dragon robe and had a luck dragon coiled around him.
The group quickly arrived at the top of the mountain and saw a handsome man meditating in mid-air with his hands in front of his dantian. He was circulating his energy and the lightning tribulation above his head was ready to strike. However, he did not panic. He did not even look up.
That person was Jiang Xiu’s son, Jiang Tiansheng!
This child was about to reach the Nascent Soul Realm and would be the first Nascent Soul cultivator in Heavenly Jing, attracting the attention of many.
Even in the sky, there were Immortal Gods watching. Bai Qi, Ye Xun, the Sword God, and Qing’er stood side by side and looked down at Jiang Tiansheng as he transcended the tribulation.
“Tsk tsk, if he wasn’t Jing Tianzong, I would have cut off his head!” Bai Qi lamented, his words filled with nostalgia.
The Sword God nodded and said, “In that case, His Majesty the Celestial Emperor and the Emperor of Heavenly Jing were not just a whim of the Dao
Ancestor…”
Ye Xun and Qing’er also revealed looks of reverence.
Only after cultivating did they understand the profundity of the soul and the reincarnation cycles. The Dao Ancestor’s previous absurd actions were now understood by them and they were amazed.
“Wait, in that case…”
Qing’er suddenly thought of something and said in shock. Before she could finish her sentence, an aged face appeared in her mind. A memory from a thousand years ago surged into her mind, causing her emotions to surge. Bai Qi and the other two looked at her. They also thought of something and were stunned.
“So Master has never forgotten the people around him. I wonder where that ugly monk, Wang Chen, is…”
Bai Qi muttered to himself as she stared down.
Jiang Tiansheng began to transcend the tribulation!
On the other side, in the throne room, Jiang Ziyu was also paying attention to
Jiang Tiansheng. He was worried that his grandson would fail the tribulation,
so he was ready to take action at any time.
Since the establishment of the Immortal Dao, a large number of cultivators had begun to transcend their own tribulations. How to transcend their tribulations had become a lively topic in the Mental Wander Realm.
“It seems like the stronger this eye is, the higher the talent for cultivation.”
Jiang Ziyu thought silently. His right hand touched the Dao pattern on his forehead. His cultivation talent was greater than all the Immortal Gods. He could already hide his third eye under his skin, leaving only a Dao pattern.
He suddenly thought of his son, Jiang Shan. He wondered how talented Jiang Shan was in cultivation.
Unfortunately, that kid was busy killing in the Blood Realm and had not appeared in the Mental Wander Realm for a long time.
Jiang Tiansheng, who received the attention of the heavens and earth, began to transcend the tribulation. This tribulation was a close call, and Heavenly Jing officially gave birth to a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
A hundred years had passed, and Jiang Changsheng was awakened by Bai Qi. He opened his eyes and stretched.
Mu Lingluo had also returned and looked at him expectantly. She was not the only one. All the believers in the Mental Wander Realm were waiting for this day.
The last time the Dao Ancestor preached the Dao, he brought the Immortal Dao to all beings. What would he bring this time?
“Go in and prepare yourself.”
Jiang Changsheng said. The two women nodded and sat down.
He was not in a hurry. He stood up and stretched his muscles. At the same time, he sorted out his hundred years of comprehension.
He was still studying the laws of karma, and it was quite effective. Other than seeing the karmic connection between people, he could also calculate what was about to happen through karma, but for the time being, it could only be applied to mortals.
“See through fate and peer into the future…”
Jiang Changsheng sighed internally. The Dao of karma was vast and profound. He felt that he would need a long time to study it.
If the Dao of karma was already like this, then what about cultivating other Great Daos?
After the Heavenly Court completely quieted down, Jiang Changsheng sat down and entered the Mental Wander Realm.
He appeared above the Ninth Heaven and looked down at the earth. He found that all the believers were waiting on the ground. They were all very well-behaved. No believers were swaying in the air.
Jiang Changsheng released his pressure and enveloped the land, causing it to fall silent.
In the Mental Wander Realm, he was the only one who could exert his
pressure. This ability made it easier for him to manage the Mental Wander Realm.
“The last sermon was about stepping into the Immortal Dao. This time, it’s about spiritual roots. All beings have spiritual roots, but their individual talent is different and the attributes of their spiritual roots are different..
The Dao Ancestor’s voice was loud and clear, but his words brought great hope to most believers.
Ever since the Immortal Dao was established, the believers had been desperately cultivating, but not everyone had succeeded. Most of the believers were limited due to their talent. Now, the Dao Ancestor’s words gave them hope.
All beings had spiritual roots!
This sentence dispelled the darkness in the hearts of many believers.
Jiang Changsheng continued to talk about the different attributes of the spiritual root. This was also divided from the Dao Technique. He was prepared to distribute the basic cultivation methods of various attributes to his believers.
There was no distinction between attributes in the Dao Technique, as it emphasized comprehensiveness and tolerance for all spiritual energy. This was also the reason why he could establish the Dao World.
The sermon only lasted for three days, but it benefited the believers greatly. Those with outstanding cultivation talent also received different degrees of enlightenment.
However, that was not the only reason Jiang Changsheng was there.
“In a thousand years, I will choose a leader of the Earth Immortal Realm from the cultivators of the human world. He will be in charge of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror and enjoy the power of heaven and earth to protect the human world. Other than cultivation, the leader of the Earth Immortal Realm also needs great merit. He must care about all living beings in the world and have no racial prejudice.”
These words excited the countless believers in the human world. The Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court were stunned, but they soon adjusted their mentality. They felt that the Dao Ancestor wanted to give the human world a chance.
Powerful people like Jiang Ziyu and Chen Li only thought of checks and balances. They were secretly shocked that the Dao Ancestor wanted to dispel the power imbalance between the Heavenly Court and the human world. Could it be that their actions had dissatisfied the Dao Ancestor?
After the sermon ended, Jiang Changsheng left the Mental Wander Realm. After his pressure disappeared, the Mental Wander Realm seemed to have exploded as the discussions were constantly held.
After returning to the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng walked to the furnace and began to refine pills.
After Mu Lingluo woke up, she came to his side and curiously asked if he would choose Jiang Xiu as the leader of the Earth Immortals.
“The leader of the Earth Immortals cannot be chosen from the Jiang Family.
The Jiang Family has already obtained great power and cannot cover the sky with one hand.”
Jiang Changsheng answered. Right now, he was not governing the dynasty, so balance was the most important thing. Human hearts would change. He would not gamble that the Heavenly Court would always be just and fair.
Rather than letting the Heavenly Court rot, it was better to sound the alarm in advance!
Human nature had to be restrained by rules, not by respecting one’s heart.
Mu Lingluo nodded and said, “The Immortal Peach Forest has begun to bear fruits. When will the Immortal Peach Convention begin?”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Even though they have borne fruits, there aren’t many of them. You can publicize it in advance and let the Kunlun Field know about the Immortal Peach Convention, just like my sermon.”
Mu Lingluo’s eyes lit up and she said, “That’s a good idea. I’ll have the Heavenly
Court publicize that the Immortal Peach Convention will start 1000 years later. At that time, there will be enough Immortal Peaches.”
“The peaches of the Immortal Peach Convention are not just provided to the
Heavenly Court. Those with great merit can also participate in the convention.” Jiang Changsheng reminded, and Mu Lingluo expressed her understanding.
She sighed. “The Kunlun Field is lucky to have you. Even the Divine Martial
Realm cannot achieve your love for all beings.”
While controlling the Samadhi True Fire, Jiang Changsheng answered, “That’s only because the Divine Martial Realm has been passed down from generation to generation. Sooner or later, people will forget the founder’s original intentions. The Divine Martial Realm must have been the same as the Heavenly Court at the beginning. This is also the reason why I wanted to maintain a balance between the Heavenly Court and the Jiang Family. Different positions will naturally lead to different thoughts.”
Mu Lingluo nodded in agreement. When she mentioned the Mu Family, she felt that they had become unfamiliar to her, including her parents and grandfather.
Due to Mu Lingluo, the Mu Family’s status was also extremely high. It was second only to the Jiang Family and the Yang Family.
It was rare for the two of them to chat like this. The more Mu Lingluo talked, the more enthusiastic she became. She told him everything she had seen and heard over the years. Jiang Changsheng listened attentively. He should make time to accompany the people around him.
The leader of the Earth Immortals!
These words would spread throughout the entire Kunlun Field in the next few years, shocking all the races in the world.
The Dao Ancestor wanted to choose a leader of the Earth Immortals. Wasn’t this giving everyone in the world a chance?
For a moment, the trend of cultivation increased, and more and more chivalrous people were born.
What was merit? Being chivalrous was the simplest merit!
Saint Qi of the Heavenly Court even proposed the idea of Xianxia. He believed that cultivators should not only cultivate for themselves, but also contribute to the development of the Immortal Dao and the continuation of peace in the world.
Jiang Ziyu greatly encouraged this concept to be spread. He asked someone to memorize Saint Qi’s concept of Xianxia and copied it to all the immortals so that they could familiarize themselves with it.
In private, the Immortal Gods all knew that the Celestial Emperor had been stimulated by the leader of the Earth Immortals.
Even though they all knew the reason, there were still many Immortal Gods who were moved by the concept of Xianxia. The most famous one was Li Canghai. It was as if he had gone crazy as he wandered around the four heaven gates and recited Saint Qi’s Xianxia scriptures.
Year after year, the concept of Xianxia spread to the human world, attracting the pursuit of many cultivators. Of course, there were also cultivators who scoffed at it and felt that it was child’s play. Instead, they advocated the concept of every man for himself.
Slowly, the cultivation world began to be divided into good and evil.
“As expected, the rules and trends of the world are about the same.”
Jiang Changsheng sat on the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin and felt emotional.
The birth of Xianxia was not at his behest. The same was true for the difference between righteous and demonic.
He did not stop or suppress the demonic path. Everything had its uses. Without the demonic path, there would be no right. He wanted to see everything from the perspective of the Kunlun Field.
At the same time, someone knelt outside the Purple Cloud Palace.
It was the Seventh Wisdom King who had been subdued by the Tightening Spell.
He had been kneeling for several days and had not seen the Dao Ancestor. He did not know if he should leave or continue to kneel.
He was once a prodigy of the past, and he had never encountered such a humiliating situation. However, he couldn’t care less.
After coming to Kunlun Field for so many years, he had witnessed the birth of the Immortal Dao and the resplendent development of the Immortal Dao. He had also obtained the method to cultivate immortality through his own means. He was pleasantly surprised to discover that cultivating immortality would help him control his demonic techniques.
That was the reason why he knelt before the Dao Ancestor!
