Chapter 435: Thousand-year God-Investiture, Preparing to Attack
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Changsheng had already made plans for the arrangement of Jiang Xiu and the other descendants. After the Heavenly Court became stronger, the hierarchy would not be as simple as it was now. Instead, it would only increase. That was also the reason why he only opened up to the Tenth Heaven. Every level was a symbol of status.
Moreover, in Jiang Changsheng’s opinion, the Heavenly Court was far from being able to completely control the Kunlun Field. The number of Immortal Gods was too small, far from reaching a saturated state.
At present, Jiang Ziyu and Jiang Xiu’s main problem was the position of Celestial Emperor.
Jiang Changsheng no longer paid any attention to Bai Qi and stared at Hu Yuan.
Hu Yuan and Jiang Tiansheng had established a lot of karma between each other. After they parted ways in the Dragon Palace, the two of them left separately. Hu Yuan wandered around the Great Wilderness and experienced many things along the way. The karma on them became richer and richer. There was love, hatred, and regret.
Along the way, Hu Yuan had matured and was no longer that naive young man.
Jiang Changsheng retracted his gaze. He had high hopes for this old friend of his, and he paid even more attention to him than he did to Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Xiu. After all, the two of them had already obtained his protection. On the other hand, Wang Chen, who had accompanied him for his entire life, had been neglected for a long time.
He began to wander around and observe the Endless Void.
The inheritor of the Ancient Arts, MO Wang, had said that he wanted to collaborate with the inheritors of other Great Daos, but there was still no news. This made Jiang Changsheng worried about this plan.
In addition, he had to guard against the Divine Martial Realm.
The Spirit Energy World and the ancient world could all be considered near the Kunlun Field. If the Divine Martial Realm really wanted to investigate Kunlun Field, they could do so too. However, the Kunlun Field was not the Divine Martial Realm’s primary target for the time being.
His consciousness drifted all the way back to the void where the Kunlun Field was at the beginning. As expected, there were a large number of martial artists from the Divine Martial Realm wandering around. Some of the nearby worlds had been turned upside down by them.
Half a day passed.
Jiang Changsheng retracted his consciousness and opened his eyes.
The area of activity in the Divine Martial Realm was getting larger and larger. Sooner or later, it would affect the Kunlun Field. At this point, he could either hide or invade the Divine Martial Realm to divert their attention.
He could only wait for MO Wang’s news in peace.
He looked at Mu Lingluo, who was training at the side, and said, “The number of legitimate gods in the Heavenly Court is about to expand. Take note of this and tell Ziyu to build more dojos and the heavenly palaces in advance.”
Hearing this, Mu Lingluo opened her eyes and looked at him with joy and expectation.
The Investiture of the Gods had been getting stronger, and the number of legitimate gods had naturally increased. It was just that it was not revealed. Even though Jiang Ziyu was in charge of the Investiture of the Gods, all he could see was what Jiang Changsheng wanted him to see, not everything about the Investiture of the Gods.
Bai Qi also opened her eyes and stared at Jiang Changsheng curiously.
The two women were moved when they heard Jiang Changsheng’s tireless explanation. They did not expect the system of the Heavenly Court to be so huge. They finally understood why the 11th to 32nd Heavens were kept empty.
It had to be said that it was indeed attractive to distinguish the difference in status based on the height of the dojo.
Time flew by like an arrow. While the Heavenly Court and Heavenly Jing were at odds with each other, the new God -Investiture Ceremony was about to begin. News about the expanding number of legitimate gods spread throughout the Mental Wander Realm.
The Three Imperials, Five Emperors, Four Extreme Emperors, Nine Divisions, Three Provinces, Four Saints of the North Pole, Heavenly Officials, Virtuous and Blessed Kings, the Star Gods, and so on!
The position of the original legitimate gods of the original departments would be expanded and refined. In the future, above the first nine heavens, each increasing heaven would mean a higher status. The higher the heaven they lived in, the better the luck, treatment, and power they would enjoy.
The number of legitimate gods had increased to 1049, and it would continue to increase in the future!
Even though it was just gossip, the news spread very quickly.
In the imperial study in Jingcheng, the human world.
Jiang Xiu sat on the dragon throne and listened to the prime ministers’ discussion about the upcoming apotheosis.
The Crown Prince also stood at the side with a yearning expression. He looked at Jiang Xiu and said, “Father, with your identity and achievements, you can become one of the three imperials, right?”
The other prime ministers also agreed. The higher Jiang Xiu’s rank was, the more benefits they could obtain. If Jiang Xiu’s rank was not high, then naturally, theirs would not be high either.
Jiang Xiu calmly said, “The Three Imperials and Five Emperors require merits, and they might not necessarily be the Emperor of Heavenly Jing. I should be able to become one of the Four Extreme Emperors.”
Some time ago, Mu Lingluo personally came to him and told him the detailed information of the empyrean experts, which filled his heart with expectations.
In fact, he also understood that the position of Celestial Emperor could not fall into his hands. The Heavenly Court was not a dynasty in the human world. As long as he obtained the title of emperor, he could still accept it.
“Now that the Kunlun Field is peaceful, it is impossible for the Human Race to encounter a calamity. I’m afraid it will be difficult for the Three Imperials and Five Emperors to be established.”
An old official shook his head and smiled. The others also felt that it made sense.
Jiang Xiu said, “Don’t be naive. When the Myriad Worlds Gate of the Heavenly Court restarts or the Kunlun Field is no longer sealed, disasters will naturally arise. Moreover, sometimes crises are not only from outside, but also from within. Perhaps there will be internal strife in the Heavenly Court one day. If there is internal strife in the Heavenly Court, how can the human world not be in chaos? Once that happens, the Heavenly Court will take hundreds of years to calm down. For the Heavenly Court, it is a short time, but for the human world, it will be a dark period.”
His tone was filled with vicissitudes, and he could not explain his emotions.
He loved the common people like his son, but once he ascended, he would be at odds with them. It was impossible for him to consider everything from the perspective of the common people.
He could not help but look at the Crown Prince. He wondered if his crown prince could lead Heavenly Jing to complete the distant goal of unifying the Kunlun Field.
The prime ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that. In any case, they could tell that Jiang Xiu was prepared to become a god and was no longer competing with the Celestial Emperor.
If Heavenly Jing were to become enemies with the Heavenly Court, to be honest, they were not confident.
How could the human world fight against the Heavenly Court?
Not to mention the entire court, at least most of the officials were worried that Jiang Xiu would cause trouble.
When Jiang Xiu saw their expressions, his heart ached.
How could he not understand that it was impossible for the fate of the human world to resist the Heavenly Court?
At the very least, he did not know if he could do it in the future.
All of this depended on how long his grandfather would stay in the Heavenly City.
As long as the Dao Ancestor was in the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court would not fall into chaos!
It had been a thousand years since the Inherited Heaven Era started. Now that Heavenly Jing was holding a God -Investiture Ceremony, all the dynasties in the world had sent envoys to spectate. It was the same for all the races. There were also various sects and holy lands in the cultivation world. This God-Investiture Ceremony was much larger than the previous two.
At the edge of the mountain forest, Hu Yuan, who was riding on a green cow, revealed a look of joy. He was amazed by Jingcheng’s appearance.
There were countless cultivators flying on swords and treasures in the sky.
There were also many mounts and figures of foreign races. The city gates of Jingcheng in the distance were a thousand feet high. Spirit Mountain stood towering as it pierced through the clouds. The vast spiritual energy formed wind dragons that hovered around. It was a spectacular sight.
“Is this the center of the world?”
Hu Yuan muttered to himself. Naturally, he came here to watch the
God-Investiture Ceremony. This matter had become the focus of attention in the Mental Wander Realm.
For some reason, Hu Yuan felt a sense of deja vu as he looked at Jingcheng.
Especially the two mountains behind Jingcheng. Even though they were far apart and he could only see the peak of the mountain, his heart inexplicably throbbed.
It seemed like he had dreamed of this place a long time ago.
He laughed at himself. Perhaps he was too obsessed with the myths and legends of the Dao Ancestor. In a certain dream, he dreamed that he appeared at Longqi Mountain, the mountain where the Dao Ancestor originated from.
He composed himself and rode the cow forward.
The man and the cow disappeared into the forest, and Jingcheng stood in the distance.
When the God-Investiture Ceremony was about to begin, the Heavenly Court also became lively. Immortal Gods were all curious about which heaven the Immortal Gods of this God-Investiture Ceremony would stay in. Over the years, the Celestial Emperor had moved to the Eighteenth Heaven, while the
Four Saint Marshals and the Three Heavenly Lords occupied the Seventeenth Heaven. The other immortals were also moving their heavenly palaces one after another.
Even Immortal Gods had pride and did not want to be easily surpassed by their juniors.
Jiang Changsheng also woke up and chatted with Mu Lingluo about the
Heavenly Court.
“That Seventh Wisdom King has been unable to find the Mental Wander Realm and is about to go crazy. When will you accept him? I think he is indeed obsessed with the Immortal Dao.”
Mu Lingluo covered her mouth and laughed. The mention of the Seventh Wisdom King made her want to laugh.
In the entire Heavenly Court, only the Seventh Wisdom King had yet to enter the Mental Wander Realm. However, no one would directly reveal the existence of the Mental Wander Realm.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “He only advocates strength. Let him think about it.”
In fact, whether he could enter the Mental Wander Realm was not under his control. After all, the Seventh Wisdom King had yet to reach the level of a believer.
From this, it could be seen how proud the Seventh Wisdom King was. In his heart, he would always believe in himself. As for the Dao Ancestor, in his opinion, he was only extremely powerful.
After she finished talking about the Seventh Wisdom King, Mu Lingluo continued to talk about Jiang Tiansheng. As their most talented descendant, Mu Lingluo had always paid attention to Jiang Tiansheng. Jiang Tiansheng often received her care when he went out to train. She often transformed into a mortal and gave Jiang Tiansheng opportunities or took action from time to time.
That was also the reason why Jiang Xiu was willing to restrain his unwillingness. Mu Lingluo took such good care of Jiang Tiansheng, so he could accept it when she tried to talk him out of being the Celestial Emperor.
Even so, Jiang Tiansheng did not leave Hu Yuan far behind. The latter even showed signs of overtaking him.
Behind Jiang Tiansheng was Mu Lingluo, and behind Hu Yuan was Jiang Changsheng.
As they chatted, Jiang Changsheng suddenly sensed something and immediately looked outside the Kunlun Field.
“What’s wrong?”
Mu Lingluo asked in surprise. Her heart tightened. Did something happen outside?
Jiang Changsheng used the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth to spy on MO
Wang. Then, he cast the Dao Heart Clone and said, “It’s just a small matter.”
When Mu Lingluo heard that, she did not ask any more questions and merely said nothing else to disturb him.
In the void.
The Dao Heart Clone faced MO Wang. In this frozen void, the two of them were so insignificant.
“Hahaha, Dao Ancestor, I have already reached an agreement with the others. You can prepare to attack the Divine Martial Realm now. This is an ancient jade that I built according to the martial jades. With it, we can contact each other. The inheritors of the other Great Daos have already set off. I am also prepared to gather my subordinates.”
MO Wang handed a piece of yellow jade to the Dao Heart Clone and turned to leave.
The Dao Heart Clone held the ancient jade and was secretly curious.
As expected, the ancient sects were still alive. How many more worlds were hidden?
After MO Wang’s aura disappeared, he rushed to the Kunlun Field.
The Dao Heart Clone sent the ancient jade to the Purple Cloud Palace and handed it to Jiang Changsheng before disappearing.
Mu Lingluo looked at the jade in his hand with curiosity.
Jiang Changsheng played with the ancient jade and said, “Someone invited me to attack the Divine Martial Realm together, and I agreed.”
Hearing this, Mu Lingluo widened her eyes and Bai Qi, who was training, also turned to look at him..
