Vast seawater surged out from the holes and rose to a height of thousands of feet, forming a huge arched bridge. The other end surged towards the capital, similar to a celestial river that was nearly a thousand feet wide. It was a spectacular sight.
The citizens, White-robed Guards, martial artists, soldiers, and merchants along the way were all shocked.
Their gazes followed the celestial bridge and landed on the dazzling figure above the capital. Their eyes turned fanatical and respectful.
Jiang Changsheng raised his hands and seawater condensed above his palms, forming a huge lake that floated above the capital. What’s more, not a single drop of water spilled.
Looking at the lake above the Dao Ancestor getting larger and larger, the capital fell into a commotion.
“That is definitely an immortal technique. No martial arts technique can do that. ”
“What does the Dao Ancestor want to do?”
“Look at the water. Without the Dao Ancestor, it would definitely flood the Si Province. Countless crops and houses would be washed away.”
“More than that. I just came back from outside the city. I heard that the water is extremely corrosive.”
“It must be because of that huge demon!”
The commoners’ gaze followed the huge flood dragon head in the sky. The huge flood dragon head was still hovering in the sky, breathing in and out the martial arts spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Its body was surrounded by surging demonic mist, and a figure was pestering it. However, no matter how he attacked, he could not hurt the dragon head.
The flood dragon head did not have any intelligence, so it did not retaliate against Ye Xun. However, it was precisely because of this that Ye Xun felt humiliated.
He used all sorts of ultimate techniques and even activated the Great Vajra Divine Body, but he was still unable to break through its defenses.
He had no choice but to stop and turn to look at the Dao Ancestor.
Jiang Changsheng was currently concentrating on casting the Great Freedom Ocean Support. For the time being, he could not care less about the nine flood dragon heads scattered above the Dragon Vein Continent. He had calculated the strength of the nine flood dragon heads, but he could not calculate it. Evidently, these dragon heads were still dead.
If they absorbed enough martial arts spiritual energy, they would probably come back to life.
However, if that was the case, Jiang Changsheng had other methods to restrain them.
Minutes and seconds passed.
A celestial river appeared in the western horizon and was surging towards the capital. Seeing this scene, the citizens in the capital knew that this disaster did not only occur in the Si Province, but also in other provinces.
That was indeed the case. Jiang Changsheng used his spiritual will to calculate. There were 73 water pillars coming out of the entire Dragon Vein Continent, all of which were distributed in the territory of the dynasties with dragon veins.
At present, all the water pillars were surging towards Jiang Changsheng at an extremely fast speed.
The other eight dragon heads also caused panic in all the dynasties of the continent. These dragon heads flew around wantonly and absorbed the martial arts spirit energy along the way. It was extremely terrifying.
No one on the continent had ever seen such a huge demon beast, and it was only a head. Despair and fear spread throughout the Dragon Vein Continent.
Jiang Changsheng did not have the time to comfort the public. He focused on using his Divine Power.
After the time for an incense stick to burn, another celestial river flew over. Three celestial rivers were connected to the lake above his palms, making the lake larger and larger. Many streets in the capital were covered by the celestial rivers. Everyone nervously looked up at this scene.
Bai Qi and the others stood by the cliff of Longqi Mountain and looked up at Jiang Changsheng.
“Previously, it was moving mountains. Is this considered moving seas?” Bai Qi sighed.
Jiang Jian said, “I think it’s more like holding a sea on the top of one’s palm.” He looked at Jiang Changsheng’s figure with admiration.
No matter where he went or what kind of experts he met, his grandfather would always be the strongest person he had ever seen.
The Sword God looked in another direction and saw Ye Xun flying back with a depressed expression.
“Forget it. Leave this demon to the Dao Ancestor.” The Sword God persuaded.
Ye Xun nodded. He felt extremely aggrieved. He had never fought such an uncomfortable fight. He did not even feel this way when facing the Dao Ancestor. In the face of the Dao Ancestor, he only felt fear. In the face of the flood dragon head, it was simply wasting his energy.
Time continued to pass.
More and more celestial rivers surged over, covering the sky and the sun, causing the entire capital to be covered by the shadow of the huge lake.
It could no longer be described as a lake. It was a water ball that flickered with a silver-blue light. Its size was larger than the entire capital.
It was hard to imagine what a terrifying scene it would be if such a large amount of water were to hit a city.
The length of the huge celestial river exceeded 200,000 miles, and there were even more celestial rivers flying towards Great Jing. All the humans and demons along the way were dumbfounded as they looked at the celestial rivers hanging in the sky, as if they were looking at a miracle.
Those from other dynasties and overseas forces in the capital recorded this scene. They were reassessing the strength of the Dao Ancestor.
A Great Jing with the Dao Ancestor could not be contended against!
When the 73 celestial rivers in the world gathered, it covered the sky and the sun. The diameter of the huge water ball in Jiang Changsheng’s hands had reached a point where it could not be calculated with his eyesight.
“It consumes a lot of energy.”
Jiang Changsheng thought silently. Not only did it consume a lot of spiritual energy, but it also consumed a lot of soul energy. He needed to use his spiritual will to cover the mysterious caves around the continent. The furthest distance he could cover was more than 600,000 miles. That was a distance that ordinary people could not reach in their entire lives.
Fortunately, all the water pillars had steadily flowed towards him and did not cause a monstrous disaster.
He looked at the horizon.
The huge flood dragon head had already left. It was not the only one. All the flood dragon heads in the world flew towards the west, wanting to leave Great Jing.
Jiang Changsheng used the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth and looked to the west.
He saw sections of bodies gathering towards the West Sea. Looking at the surface of their bodies, they were very similar to the nine dragon heads. Could they be of the same origin?
Jiang Changsheng frowned. He did not have the time to stop them for the time being. He had to protect Great Jing first.
He looked down and saw that the seawater in the underground space had decreased by more than half. The World Destruction Tree had successfully propped up the ground, and its vines had countless roots that extended to the ground, covering the soil of countless dynasties. Even though it had successfully completed its mission, it was still strenuous.
Even for an expert in the Eight Grotto-heaven realm, it was extremely difficult to hold up a continent.
Ji Wujun helped the World Destruction Tree withstand the corrosion of the sea water. She looked at the tree with admiration.
In any case, the World Destruction Tree could support the vast land of a continent. This power was enough for her to respect it.
At the same time, she admired Jiang Changsheng for thinking of using the World Destruction Tree to protect the Dragon Vein Continent.
She previously believed that after the seal of the dragon veins was broken, the provinces of Great Jing would collapse and it might even cause the entire continent to crack and sink to the bottom of the sea.
Now, the disaster of the Dragon Vein Continent had been resolved, and the Dragon Vein Continent was still there.
“Saving the world again. If fateful Martial Emperor is not the Dao Ancestor, who else could it be?”
Ji Wujun thought silently. She thought of the prophecy described by the Sacred Dynasty, and her heart was filled with unprecedented expectations.
Several hours later, the seawater in the underground space had completely dried up.
However, the celestial river on land still needed time to come to Jiang Changsheng. Soon, the sun set, the moon rose, and night fell.
Tonight, the citizens of the cities in the Si Province could not fall asleep because they could still see the mighty celestial river when they looked up, fearing that it would fall.
The capital was even more noisy.
Through the White-robed Guards, Jiang Che investigated the situation of the continent. It turned out that these celestial rivers were not only from other provinces in Great Jing, but also from other dynasties.
The Dao Ancestor did not only save Great Jing, but also the entire continent.
This was different from the Dao Ancestor’s previous attitude.
“Since everyone in the world is indebted to you, this kindness cannot be buried.”
Jiang Che picked up his brush and ink and began to write an imperial decree, preparing to announce it to the world. Not only did he want the people of Great Jing to know the truth, but he also wanted the people of the continent to understand the kindness of the Dao Ancestor.
That night, it was destined that many people would find it hard to fall asleep.
The bright moon slowly descended.
The first ray of sunlight streaked across the sky in the morning. The citizens of the cities in the Si Province walked out of their houses one after another. They were sleepy, but the moment they saw the scene in the sky, their drowsiness instantly disappeared and all of them opened their mouths wide.
They saw an incomparably huge water ball floating in the sky. The size of the water ball made it impossible for them to fully see its size. More than half of the outline of the water ball was blocked by the city and the mountains. It was as if the bright moon in the sky was about to fall.
At that moment, everyone who saw the water ball felt how insignificant they were.
“The seal of the dragon veins was broken and a demon beasts broke out. A sea filled with demonic energy wanted to drown the continent. Fortunately, the Dao Ancestor used the power of an immortal to gather the water and lifted it in his hand. He sought to protect the integrity of the Dragon Vein Continent and protect everyone on it!”
A White-robed Guard galloped on his horse on the streets of the city, shouting and repeating these words.
Such a scene also appeared in the cities of all the provinces. Overnight, relying on the teleportation array, the news quickly spread throughout the 149 provinces of Great Jing on the Dragon Vein Continent. As for spreading to the other dynasties, it would take more time.
Above the capital, Jiang Changsheng frowned.
The water ball above was larger than the entire Si Province and towered into the clouds. It was hard to measure its height, and its weight was unimaginable. Even when he cast the Great Freedom Ocean Support, he still felt the heaviness.
Through his spiritual will, he knew that the remaining celestial river was about to completely integrate into the water ball. At that time, he could leave the Dragon Vein Continent and send it to the land of demons.
Jiang Changsheng looked in the direction of the West Sea. The nine flood dragon heads had gathered together with their bodies. It was a nine-headed huge flood dragon with the body of a python. It was covered with black and red snake scales and had a pair of huge wings. It was quietly floating above the ocean. The martial arts spiritual energy between heaven and earth entered its body to help its remnant body fuse.
It seemed like it would take a long time for it to be resurrected.
Jiang Changsheng retracted his gaze and focused on gathering the remaining water.
By noon, all the celestial rivers had merged into the water ball, and there was no more celestial river in the sky.
Jiang Changsheng left with the water ball and quickly flew out of the Si Province towards the south. Demon beasts were mostly concentrated in the south. By doing this, he could use the corrosive seawater to eliminate a large group of demon beasts.
Jiang Che stood in front of the imperial study and calmly looked at Jiang Changsheng’s departing back. He could not see Jiang Changsheng’s figure clearly, but he could see the shocking huge water ball.
There was no mountain in the world that was larger than this water ball. At least, there was no such mountain on the Dragon Vein Continent! “Father, the Dao Ancestor is amazing. He’s an immortal, right?”
A young man standing beside Jiang Che asked excitedly.
His name was Jiang Qing, and he had obtained Emperor Shuntian’s Human King Inheritance. He was powerful, and even though he was still a young man, the aura he displayed was still filled with oppression.
“Yes, he is an immortal, an immortal who protects Great Jing, and the most important elder to the Jiang Family.”
Jiang Che answered with a calm tone and a complicated look in his eyes.
Jiang Qing excitedly asked, “When this is over, can Father bring me to meet him? I want to acknowledge him as my teacher!”
