The establishment of the Kunlun Field did not affect the survival of the common people. Instead, it gave some powerful beings the chance to seek opportunities.
With the establishment of the Kunlun Field, the God of the Three Mountains and the Five Peaks needed to increase the number of their subordinates. The Heavenly Court was getting larger and larger, and all the Immortal Gods began to get busy. The more Immortal Gods there were, the stronger the luck of the Investiture of the Gods would be, causing the Investiture of the Gods to transform.
Perhaps there would be more than 365 legitimate gods in the future!
Jiang Changsheng had inspected the Investiture of the Gods and found that there was a trace of the power of creation in it. Creation represented variables, hope, and transformation.
Looking at it, the Investiture of the Gods would not be far from transforming.
At present, he did not need any more legitimate gods. The Investiture of the Gods could already accept countless beings and provide them with luck to work for him. They only could not enjoy the benefits of being a legitimate god.
Every year, a large number of new gods would join the Heavenly Court, and the 33 Layered Heavens had also been completely revealed. The legitimate gods moved to the Twentieth Heaven and handed the Lower Realm over to the Heavenly Soldiers, Heavenly Generals, and God Attendants to guard.
The Heavenly Court also became livelier.
Time flew by, and twenty years passed in the blink of an eye.
It was the 221st year of the Dingtian Era, and Heavenly Jing had set off another round of war. The length of the battlefront was far longer than before.
For Jiang Changsheng, twenty years passed like a day.
It was easy to lose track of time when one was immersed in cultivation. Jiang Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and checked his incense and luck.
[Current incense points: 398,444,012,231]
[Current luck points: 1,970,077,001,138]
The number of incense points increased very quickly, far exceeding the past. Especially when the Heavenly Court recruited Mountain Gods to serve the legitimate gods, the number of incense points ushered in an explosion.
As for his luck points, even though he had activated the Divine Weapon of Luck Function, it was useless. He could not develop a habit of squandering and wasting.
Jiang Changsheng looked to his side. Mu Lingluo was still meditating. She had not left for a long time, and her strength had been improving by leaps and bounds. However, she still had a long way to go before she could become a Martial Emperor.
Things were different now. The martial arts spiritual energy in the air far exceeded the past. Now, the limiting factor of becoming strong was talent and comprehension. But with the 33 Layered Heavens and the Purple Cloud Palace that could increase comprehension, Mu Lingluo was considered to be blessed by the heavens. Only Bai Qi and White Dragon could compare to her luck.
Jiang Changsheng did not disturb her. Instead, he began to observe the world.
First, he conducted calculations for various ranges. After ensuring that there was no danger, his mind wandered outside the world and his consciousness jumped directly into the Xuanhuang Great World.
As he had been to the Xuanhuang Great World before, he could find it even without the source of the Celestial River.
The Xuanhuang Great World was not directly above the universe in the Lower Realm. Instead, it was two separate universes. If it were an ordinary martial artist, it would be hard to find them, but Jiang Changsheng’s consciousness could easily cross over.
His consciousness landed in the void of the Xuanhuang Great World that was connected to the source of the Celestial River. He focused his gaze and saw a huge ship that stretched as the eye could see docked in the void. A large number of martial artists like flying insects were constructing a formation. It was vast and mighty, and the number of people was immeasurable.
That huge ship was more like a pagoda. It was divided into nine levels, and each level was as huge as a martial arts world. On each level, there were huge cities with towering buildings. It was a spectacular sight.
Jiang Changsheng could sense that this huge ship contained many powerful auras that overpowered even Chang Yueqian. He could even sense several auras that were not inferior to Celestial Venerable Bu. There were no less than a hundred powerful auras who were equal to that of Palace Master Ji, and there were countless auras of people in the Heavenly Origin Extreme Martial Realm. The weakest among them was in the Heaven and Earth Emperor Realm.
The foundation of the Divine Martial Realm was indeed terrifying.
There were more martial artists here than there were in the entire Heavenly Jing…
Furthermore, this did not represent the strength of the entire Divine Martial Realm!
Jiang Changsheng turned his head and looked over. In the vast starry sky in the distance, continents emitted spiral clouds of light that were similar to galaxies. Many people were wandering around as if the actions of the Divine Martial Realm did not affect them at all.
Jiang Changsheng’s consciousness flew towards the huge ship, wanting to pry for information.
His consciousness quickly entered the huge ship. He listened to the discussions of the martial artists along the way.
It turned out that this ship was called the Nine Realms Sky Boat, and it was the most famous treasure in the Divine Martial Realm. It contained many powerful formations. Additionally, it had formed its own rules of heaven and earth. It was said that the nine ancient existences in the Divine Martial Realm were the manifestations of the nine realms on it, which made Jiang Changsheng more doubtful about the realms in the Martial Dao.
When in the Grotto-Heaven Realm and the Martial King Realm, one would already show signs of developing a small world, even though it was just a mirage. Those in the Ultimate Void Realm could transform into the void, which was also an extension of the power of heaven and earth.
After roughly understanding the situation of the Nine Realms Sky Boat, Jiang Changsheng approached the most powerful auras.
Some were in seclusion, while others were discussing the source of the Celestial River.
Jiang Changsheng’s consciousness came to a hall where a group of people were having a meeting. The three people in the lead were not weaker than Celestial Venerable Bu. They sat on the high platform with powerful auras, and the group of people standing in the hall were not weak either.
Jiang Changsheng listened attentively as they talked about the details of the construction of the source of the Celestial River. The study of Martial Dao was as rigorous and complicated as science in his previous life. The formation that was about to be activated was not inferior to some immortal formation. All of this made Jiang Changsheng think highly of the Divine Martial Realm.
After listening for a while, Jiang Changsheng finally heard some key information.
“Celestial Venerables, when will Lu Shenzhou come out of seclusion?”
An old man asked. His face was weathered and full of scars. His words had also aroused the curiosity of others.
The Celestial Venerable seated in the middle answered, “It should be soon. As for when, we can’t predict it. However, the Divine Martial Realm has already given the order. At that time, Lu Shenzhou will rush over at the first instance and break through the spatial barrier. First, we will kill the Dao Ancestor of the Heavenly Court before repairing the source of the Celestial River.”
As soon as he said that, everyone in the hall revealed a curious expression.
Jiang Changsheng was puzzled. The name of the Heavenly Court had spread to the Divine Martial Realm?
It seemed like the Kunlun Field had spies from the Divine Martial Realm, just like the relationship between the Great Wilderness Divine Lord and some races in the Great Wilderness. However, the Kunlun Field had cut off contact with the Celestial River, so it should be hard for the Divine Martial Realm to contact them again.
Jiang Changsheng was curious about Lu Shenzhou. Unfortunately, they did not chat much about him. After all, they were already familiar with each other.
Several hours later, Jiang Changsheng’s consciousness returned to his body.
He stood up and walked out of the Purple Cloud Palace. At the same time, he took a breath of fresh air and relaxed for a while.
In the Third Heaven, Taishi Changce was training in a stone pavilion on a cloud. He did not notice Jiang Changsheng appearing beside him out of nowhere.
Jiang Changsheng walked to the stone table and sat down before pouring himself a cup of wine.
Taishi Changce only opened his eyes when he heard the noise. When he saw Jiang Changsheng, he was shocked and hastily stood up to salute.
“There’s no need to be so polite. Sit down. How has your training been?”
Taishi Changce was not reserved. He immediately sat down and answered with a smile, “Not bad. The Heavenly Court is indeed not simple. I feel that my brain is much clearer than before when I trained here.’
Jiang Changsheng teased, “In that case, you have to cherish it and strive to become a prodigy whose name will shock the Xuanhuang Great World.” Taishi Changce lamented, “It’s not easy to become that kind of prodigy.” It’s coming!
“Oh? Are there any famous prodigies in the Xuanhuang Great World? Tell me about it.” Jiang Changsheng followed Taishi Changce’s lead and asked.
Even though he had read Taishi Changce’s memories and changed them, he had paid attention to Taishi Changce himself. Naturally, he did not investigate what Taishi Changce had experienced in his life. Of course, he could continue to read his memories, but it was too troublesome. He might as well chat and relax.
A person might have little experience, but all the information a person gathered together was absolutely huge and complicated.
A simple and boring life, with occasional detours, was also fun.
Taishi Changce pondered for a moment and said, “There are many levels of prodigies. The one standing at the peak is the legendary Supreme Kunlun. That person is as talented as one can be. However, the Supreme Kunlun is no longer considered a prodigy. Instead, the Supreme Kunlun is already considered as a peerless expert that awes the world. Below the Supreme Kunlun are Ye Shenkong, Lu Shenzhou, Dugu Wangtian, the Infinite Divine Monk…”
He listed many names in one breath. Ye Shenkong had indeed amazed the Xuanhuang Great World, but he was not unique. The Xuanhuang Great World was too vast, and geniuses were like fish in the sea.
Taishi Changce listed a total of 13 names. These people were not all from the same generation. They were merely prodigies that had shocked the Xuanhuang Great World in the past million years.
Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, “Lu Shenzhou. I guess he is not simple to be ranked behind Ye Shenkong.”
Speaking of Lu Shenzhou, Taishi Changce revealed an envious expression and said, “Lu Shenzhou is the opposite of Ye Shenkong. His family supported him with all their might and he joined the Divine Martial Realm. He was also nurtured by the Divine Martial Realm to become the youngest Divine Martial Venerable. The moment he became a Divine Martial Venerable, his name shook the Divine Martial Realm. It is said that he defeated many experts in the Divine Martial Realm and obtained their trust and expectations.”
“In addition, his physique is the Superior Primordial Spirit Body, a physique that is as famous as the Eternal Killing Star. In the Xuanhuang Great World,
anything that comes into contact with the word ‘primordial’ is not simple. It is said that the Superior Primordial Spirit Body has the Divine Power to reverse everything. I have yet to encounter it, so I don’t know much.”
Jiang Changsheng became interested in Lu Shenzhou.
For such a powerful opponent, he could give him a go.
He decided to move the Kunlun Field away in advance and leave a clone to spar with Lu Shenzhou.
As long as the opponent was strong enough and clearly wanted to deal with him, the clone could also obtain a survival reward.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Changsheng left.
Taishi Changce was encouraged and trained with fighting spirit.
Ever since the Chang Clan arrived, he had been under a lot of pressure. That was because there were many geniuses in the Chang Clan. In the past, he was the most powerful Heavenly Soldier, but that might not be the case now.
Jiang Changsheng went to visit Jiang Tianming, Jiang Shan, Jiang Jian, Ping’an, Lin Haotian, and the others. Everyone was very excited about his arrival. Ever since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, they felt that the distance between them and the Dao Ancestor was getting further and further apart.
They even felt that they were no longer so special and outstanding. After Jiang Changsheng encouraged them one by one, all of them felt their blood boiling.
Several days later.
Jiang Changsheng jumped out of the Kunlun Field and came to the void.
He looked down at the vast Kunlun Field. His spiritual will instantly covered the entire Kunlun Field, including the Celestial River and the surrounding stars. Then, he raised his right hand.
Divine Power, Universe Palm!
A figure appeared out of thin air from a palace of the Chang Clan. It was Chang Yueqian. He sensed that something was amiss and immediately came out. He looked up and widened his eyes..
