After absorbing the Luoyu’s soul, another page of the Classic of Mountains and Seas was added. It was the Luoyu’s figure without any color, making it look ancient and long-standing.
Jiang Changsheng held the Classic of Mountains and Seas in his hand and probed it with his spiritual energy. Unexpectedly, he condensed the phantoms of the Taisui and the Luoyu. With the help of his spiritual force, the phantoms materialized into form. With the enhancement of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the effect of his spiritual energy doubled. He clearly felt that he had a spiritual connection with the two phantoms of strange beasts and could command them to fight.
Then, he cut off his spiritual energy and retracted the two shadows.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas had great potential. If he were to subdue all the strange beasts in the world, it was hard to imagine how powerful the Classic of Mountains and Seas could be.
He stood up and began to use the Classic of Mountains and Seas to imprint the Jade Bone Green Bamboo Forest. For non-living objects, he only needed to absorb a portion of it to imprint it in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Very soon, he succeeded!
He tried to imprint ordinary trees and stones, but he failed.
The Cloud Sky Divine Tree in the Dao World was also successfully imprinted in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, causing it to have four pages of images. With each additional page, the Classic of Mountains and Seas would form an additional connate restriction.
After some research, he finally understood that it could only be engraved with a strange object that contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and it could not be repeated.
He closed the Classic of Mountains and Seas and returned to the courtyard. He absorbed a portion of the branches of the Earth Spirit Tree, causing another page of the Classic of Mountains and Seas to be enhanced.
Bai Qi stared at the stone book in his hand and curiously asked, “Master, what is this?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “A treasure I refined, but it is useless for the time being.”
Bai Qi did not believe it and felt that it must be extraordinary. However, Jiang Changsheng clearly did not want to say anything else, so she could only shut her mouth and observe in silence.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly looked at Bai Qi, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian.
In order to strengthen the Classic of Mountains and Seas, they would have to suffer.
After the time for an incense stick to burn.
Bai Qi, Huang Tian, and Hei Tian trembled as they looked at him.
Jiang Changsheng stared at the Classic of Mountains and Seas in his hand. There was an image of Huang Tian and Hei Tian on it, but not Bai Qi.
It seemed like not all demon beasts could be imprinted. It depended on one’s talent and bloodline.
Huang Tian and Hei Tian had talents comparable to the Luoyu and the Taisui. Perhaps their bloodlines were extraordinary and they were not ordinary demon beasts.
Most importantly, these two little guys were not of the same species, which surprised him.
Every image of the Classic of Mountains and Seas had a certain object attached to it, and it was based on Jiang Changsheng’s knowledge.
He put away the Classic of Mountains and Seas and said, “I am imprinting your souls in this book. In the future, even if you die outside, I can resurrect you.”
As soon as he said that, the originally nervous Huang Tian and Hei Tian were pleasantly surprised and jumped up and down excitedly.
Bai Qi asked gloomily, “Master, why didn’t I enter the book?”
Jiang Changsheng glanced at her and said, “Maybe you are too mediocre.”
Bai Qi felt even worse. She covered her head with her claws and wailed repeatedly, forming a sharp contrast with the jubilation of the two cat demons.
Jiang Changsheng was not lying. As long as they left half of their soul in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it was not impossible for him to resurrect them in the future. He believed that he would master the mystical ability to resurrect from one’s soul sooner or later.
What was the Immortal Dao? It was omnipotent!
Jiang Changsheng kept the Classic of Mountains and Seas into his Giant Spirit Ring and meditated under the Earth Spirit Tree.
As he cultivated, his imagination ran wild.
He fantasized about subduing all the ancient beasts in the world. At that time, a book could form an army, and it would be an army of ancient beasts!
Thinking about it, it was quite exciting.
However, this could only be done in passing and could not be set as his main goal.
One’s own cultivation was the key!
That night, Jiang Changsheng entered Mu Lingluo’s dream and learned that the Mu family was preparing to enter an extremely dangerous strait. Mu Lingluo hoped to obtain his protection, and he agreed immediately.
Helping the Mu family was also helping Great Jing accumulate strength. Moreover, he could also obtain survival rewards during the process. So why not?
Jiang Changsheng began to look forward to the Mu Family encountering other ancient beasts.
The next day, the Mu family set off.
Knowing that he had the protection of that mysterious immortal, the pressure on Mu Xuangang greatly decreased, and the mighty fleet began to move forward.
On the other side.
Ye Xun and the Sword God had arrived at Great Jing’s army fleet one after another and were moving forward with the ships.
Jiang Jian and Song Li were extremely happy with their arrival.
This news had also spread to the navy of Great Qi. The Sword God’s name was known throughout the Dragon Vein Continent, and his arrival had also increased the morale of Great Qi.
The two armies continued to advance, getting closer and closer to the small continent that Fengtian had occupied.
A month later.
“In the 31st year of the Shuntian Era, Mu Lingluo and the Mu Family were attacked by an ancient beast, Laotuo. Fortunately, you took action in time and cut off this karma. You received a survival reward—Magical Treasure, ‘Golden-scaled Jade Leaf’ x3.”
The Laotuo was an extremely huge fish, even larger than the Luoyu. Its body could burn with blue flames, and it directly blocked a strait. In the vast fog, it was like a sea god, making it extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, Mu Lingluo resolved it with a Golden-scaled Jade Leaf. After Jiang
Changsheng’s modification, the spatial restriction contained in the Golden-scaled Jade Leaf was stronger. With this change, it absorbed the Laotuo’s huge body and sent it all the way back to Great Jing.
With so many magical treasures in his hands and his proficiency in weapon refinement, Jiang Changsheng could already refine magical treasures.
However, he could not refine a magical treasure like the Golden-scaled Jade Leaf, so he was usually too lazy to refine magical treasures.
Even if it was successfully produced, he was the only one who could use it, so there was no need to waste time.
In less than four hours, the Golden-scaled Jade Leaf flew back to the courtyard. Jiang Changsheng entered the house and kept the Golden-scaled Jade Leaf into the Dao World before releasing the Laotuo. A huge fish landed in the water, setting off huge waves. The Classic of Mountains and Seas floated above the water and began to absorb its soul.
Without any obstruction, another page was added to the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
It was worth mentioning that the Luoyu, the Taisui, and the Laotuo were all in the Grotto-heaven realm. If these three were released, they would be enough to sweep across the Dragon Vein Continent.
After subduing the Laotuo, Jiang Changsheng threw out three more Golden-scaled Jade Leaves towards Mu Lingluo’s location while he began to refine the three newly obtained Golden-scaled Jade Leaves.
At night, three pieces of Golden-scaled Jade Leaf flew into Mu Lingluo’s room. Seeing this, Mu Lingluo smiled.
Coupled with these three pieces, she had four Golden-scaled Jade Leaves in her hands, which was enough to save the Mu family four times.
She sighed with emotion. “How powerful is Brother Changsheng? A single leaf can destroy a huge beast in the Grotto-heaven realm.”
Today, the Laotuo gave the Mu family a great deal of pressure. The Taisui brought them disgust and fear, while the Laotuo’s blue flames brought them extreme shock in the dim strait.
Even so, the powerful ancient beasts were easily taken away by the Immortal God behind Mu Lingluo, making Jiang Changsheng’s position in their hearts noble.
In the days to come, the Mu family began to carve Jiang Changsheng’s wooden sculpture and placed it in their rooms for worship.
All of this was spontaneous, in the hopes that the Immortal God could protect them until they arrived at the distant Great Jing.
Mu Lingluo even provided them with advice, and soon a simple statue of Jiang Changsheng appeared on every ship.
Soon after, the Mu family left this dangerous strait. Other than the Laotuo, the other sea beasts they encountered were not too strong, enough for them to deal with on their own.
In the blink of an eye.
It was the 32nd year of the Shuntian Era, during the transition between spring and summer. Within Shuntian City.
Bang!
Emperor Shuntian slammed the table and stood up, glaring at the envoys of Great Qi in front of the table. The Head of Punishment stood motionless on one side.
“Give it to Great Qi? Dream on. It was Great Jing who defeated the Dragon of
Luck of Fengtian. In the face of the Grotto-heaven realm, it was also relying on Great Jing’s experts. On what basis does Great Qi want the continent? Isn’t the island enough for you to eat?”
“Tell the Great Qi Emperor that if he dares to push his luck, I will not be restrained by the alliance agreement. Great Qi can consider whether to seize it by force! ”
Emperor Shuntian laughed angrily. He was not Jing Renzong, so he would not make the same mistake as the latter did against the Hongxuan Dynasty.
The envoy of Great Qi had an ugly expression on his face. He did not expect Emperor Shuntian to be so unyielding.
They originally thought that Great Jing was more worried about the Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty and had no choice but to give in to Great Qi. Unexpectedly, they were wrong.
Emperor Shuntian snorted and said, “Go back. I won’t snatch the island that Great Qi has conquered, but don’t even think about taking the territory that Great Jing has conquered. If the two dynasties want a long-term collaboration, they have to show their sincerity and don’t have any designs!”
The envoy of Great Qi wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he bowed and left.
After he left, Emperor Shuntian’s eyes revealed killing intent. “Before I die of old age, I must take down Great Qi.”
Emperor Shuntian muttered to himself with determination.
The Head of Punishment said, “After defeating Fengtian, it will be easy to take down Great Qi. The existence of Great Qi can also reassure the people of Great Jing. After all, we are facing an extremely powerful Fengtian.”
Emperor Shuntian nodded. Just as he was about to speak, a White-robed Guard ran in and presented a secret letter.
He took the letter and opened it, frowning.
“Second Brother, I didn’t expect you to be restless. Hmph.”
In June, the Emperor issued an edict ordering the Tang King, Jiang Tianqi, to go overseas to manage the first overseas continent of Great Jing, which made the entire Great Jing jubilant.
A new continent meant more resources and space for power. Other than Jiang Tianqi, many martial arts sects and merchant families began to send people there.
In the courtyard.
Jiang Che had just finished learning martial arts from Yang Zhou and was currently talking to Jiang Changsheng about Jiang Tianqi.
It turned out that from this year onwards, the Tang King began to win over the aristocrats in the capital, which made Jiang Che extremely uneasy. With the Emperor absent, even though he was the Crown Prince, he had no experience in such a fight. Therefore, he had no choice but to seek Jiang Changsheng’s opinion.
Jiang Changsheng directly asked him to write a letter to Emperor Shuntian, which resulted in the Tang King being transferred away.
The Tang King was also Jiang Changsheng’s descendant. Naturally, he would not kill him directly when his descendants were fighting for power. Moreover, the Tang King was only ambitious and did not go too far.
“Your father can still reign for many years. Sometimes, relying on his strength will not make you seem incompetent. An emperor has to use all available strength. ”
Jiang Che felt that it made sense.
So what if he relied on his own methods to suppress the Tang King? Great Jing was currently at war and if he were to fight with the Tang King, wouldn’t he be dragging Great Jing down?
Jiang Che began to talk about the strange news he had learned during this period of time.
As Great Jing fought overseas and even repelled the army fleet of the Fengtian
Sovereign Dynasty, more and more overseas forces came to befriend Great Jing. Jiang Che, who supervised the country, was responsible for receiving them.
“Recently, a group of mysterious martial artists has appeared in the ocean. They specialize in killing demon beasts and when they encounter unfair internal disputes between humans, they will also take action.. People in the ocean call them Demon-Slaying Heroes…
