My Descendant Begged Me To Help Him Just After I Became A God-Chapter 41 - : What Ultimate Technique Is This?
Chapter 41: What Ultimate Technique Is This?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After being educated by Jiang Changsheng, Jiang Ziyu could only give up on the idea of joining the army. After that, he cultivated even more diligently.
That month, the Emperor ordered the granddaughter of the Minister of Justice, Yang Che, to marry King Wei. The news spread throughout the city, causing the people to discuss. Over the years, the Emperor’s presence had been very weak, and the Crown Prince could be said to be in charge of the court. Suprisingly, the Emperor actually arranged a marriage for King Wei, making people’s imagination run wild.
“His Highness the Crown Prince is getting more and more overboard and rude. His Majesty is still here, but he actually dares to say that he wants to personally lead the expedition. Why didn’t he name himself?”
Chen Li said indignantly, “The previous crown prince was still best. Although he did not practice martial arts, he was a genius of a ruler.”
When Wang Chen, who was sweeping the floor, heard this, his heart ached, but he was not unwilling. He was already used to cultivating in the temple. It was leisure but not boring, and there was less scheming.
Jiang Ziyu was studying in the palace, so Chen Li ridiculed Jiang Yu even more brazenly.
Jiang Changsheng meditated under the Earth Spirit Tree and said casually without opening his eyes, “Since you’re so dissatisfied, work for Ziyu in the future. You should be able to figure out the reason behind the marriage His
Majesty has set for Ziyu, right?”
Chen Li frowned and said, “His Majesty wants to rope in a faction for King Wei? I’m afraid His Highness will be dissatisfied when he comes back.”
Other than the two of them, only Wang Chen was left in the courtyard. Xu Tianji and Ping’an were practicing martial arts with the other disciples in the martial arts arena. Chen Li was already familiar with Wang Chen. Although he did not know Wang Chen’s background, Wang Chen was too ugly and lived in seclusion, so there was no need to worry about him spreading rumors. Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said, “I support King Wei.”
After breaking through to the sixth level of the Dao Technique, he stopped pretending.
The Empress and the Yang Family were already roped in. Next was the Chen Family.
Even though Jiang Changsheng’s strength was outstanding, if he wanted Jiang Ziyu to successfully ascend the throne, he still had to nurture some forces for him. Jiang Changsheng did not want to guard him for the rest of his life.
Moreover, no matter how strong he was, the world was huge. How could he just rely on himself to consolidate the imperial power?
Chen Li’s heart beat faster. He had sensed the change in Jiang Changsheng’s attitude previously, but he did not expect him to be so thorough this time.
Wang Chen did not have any thoughts. He also felt that Jiang Ziyu had the talent of an emperor.
Chen Li hesitated and said, “Now that the Great Jing is on the verge of collapse,
I’m afraid it’s not good for us to seize power now, right?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Then do you think there’s really hope for the Great
Jing under the current crown prince’s lead?”
Chen Li’s expression changed. He was indeed very dissatisfied with the Crown Prince, but this matter was too important.
“Right now, Ziyu is still growing. If the Chen family joins us, how can the Chen family’s treatment be inferior to now when he ascends the throne in the future? Chen Li, there’s not much time left. The Chen family chose too late back then,” Jiang Changsheng stared into his eyes and said meaningfully.
After knowing him for nearly 30 years, this was the first time Chen Li had seen such ambition in Jiang Changsheng’s eyes.
He could not help but suspect Jiang Changsheng’s motive and could not help but ask, “Changsheng, is it just because King Wei is your disciple?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “I pursue the Immortal Dao and understand destiny. The destiny is not in the Crown Prince, but in Ziyu.”
What nonsense!
Chen Li wanted to question it, but when he thought of how Jiang Changsheng had transcended the lightning tribulation twice and was now over 40 years old, but still looked like an 18-year-old young man, all kinds of signs indicated that Jiang Changsheng might really not be an ordinary person.
“Is there really destiny?” Chen Li gulped and asked.
Jiang Changsheng said, “Other than destiny, everything else depends on man. The Crown Prince doesn’t have any ambitions, while Ziyu has ambitions comparable to His Majesty. I’ve deduced that the future will far exceed the present. The true prosperity will be lifted after Ziyu ascends the throne. This is also the reason why I’m willing to take him in as my disciple.”
Chen Li was silent.
Wang Chen recalled how extraordinary Jiang Ziyu was and felt even more reverence for Jiang Changsheng.
King Wei was indeed impressive!
After five minutes, Chen Li took a deep breath, and his eyes became firm as he said, “Changsheng, the Chen family will now be tied to King Wei. If we lose, you have to protect the Chen family’s bloodline.”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Brother Chen, in the future, you will think that your words are very laughable. The Chen family’s prosperity is coming.”
The head of the Chen family was the Minister of Revenue, and he had many subordinates. With their support, Jiang Ziyu would have more trump cards.
After Chen Li made up his mind, he felt relieved and became excited. He began to discuss with Jiang Changsheng how to pave the way for King Wei.
Two of the six ministries supported the King of Wei. They now had the support of the literature faction and just lacking the martial arts faction, which was the Factions without an army were all paper tigers!
In the 41st year of the Jing Dynasty, the Crown Prince, Jiang Yu, personally led an army of 300,000 soldiers to the Shenzhou Province with irresistible force. Jiang Yu pursued the victory and advanced for a few months. In the end, he was surrounded by nearly 500,000 troops of Ancient Han. A tragic battle that was rarely seen in 50 years erupted, and it was known as the Battle of Blood Plains.
The two dynasties had invested nearly a million soldiers one after another. After fighting for a few days, more than 500,000 people had died. It could be said that both sides were severely injured.
It was only after King Qin led 50,000 iron cavalry to escort the Crown Prince away that the battle ended.
This battle made the surrounding dynasties restless. Great Jing and Ancient Han had fought for more than ten years. After this battle, their vitality was probably greatly damaged.
In the Great Jing, the thirteen prefectures were restless. The remnants of the previous dynasty took action again, and all kinds of rumors spread throughout the world.
The Great King was in even more danger!
This year, Jiang Ziyu was 12 years old and Ping’an was 12 years old.
In Longqi Temple.
The Minister of Justice, Yang Che, the Minister of Revenue, Chen Yu, and Chen Li were discussing important matters in the courtyard. Jiang Ziyu and Ping’an were also there, while Xu Tianji brought Huang Chuan to avoid suspicion.
“My Yang Family has already recruited private soldiers in the Qian Province, the Yu Province, and the Fang Province. Now that the north is in chaos, the Imperial Court’s attention to the south is extremely low. Other than us, the other aristocratic families are also secretly gathering troops. I’m afraid chaos is coming.” Yang Che sighed.
Chen Yu sighed as if he expected it and said, “Chaotic times are inevitable. I heard that the remnants of the Chu Dynasty have started to move again and are gathering the forces of the martial arts world. I heard that the grandmasters in the martial arts world are also going to move out.”
Jiang Ziyu scoffed. “When I grow up, I’ll definitely suppress the universe and expel the barbarians!”
At the age of twelve, he was already in high spirits. There was no lack of young monarchs in history, so he was very ambitious and wished he could leave the mountain immediately.
Ping’an, who was not far away, was even more exaggerated. Although he was only twelve years old, his figure was already comparable to an adult. After Xuan Nei’s Overlord Body reached Large Accomplishment, his physique grew at an exaggerated speed in just a year. He looked like a human-shaped ferocious beast.
Ping’an was now a genuine top expert. He was only twelve years old, and he would definitely step into the Heaven Arrival realm in the future. Moreover, he would be a Heaven Arrival realm expert who was suitable for fighting on the battlefield!
Chen Li looked at Jiang Changsheng and frowned. “Changsheng, when will we start?”
Jiang Changsheng was looking at the incense points. It had already exceeded a thousand. He was hesitating if he should deduce the strength of the Mahayana Dragon Tower, but it cost 1,000 incense points. He could only transcend half of the tribulation after consuming more than 2,000 incense points. This meant that the Mahayana Dragon Tower was far less dangerous than the lightning tribulation to him.
Forget it, it was safer!
He began to deduce!
Can I easily defeat the Mahayana Dragon Tower?
A peace of mind was of utmost importance.
Jiang Changsheng said, “It’s not time yet. The number of troops you have is too little. We need at least 100,000 iron cavalry.”
[Requires 1,000 incense points. Do you wish to continue?]
Continue!
“100,000 iron cavalry is not easy to train. For 100,000 fierce horses, we still have to prepare the carriage to escort the food and grass, which alone require at least 300,000 horses, and the cavalry also requires long-term training.” Yang Che frowned and said.
A word appeared in front of Jiang Changsheng.
[Yes]
This word was filled with weight, making Jiang Changsheng smile. He said, “There are still four years. I hope everyone can prepare well when you are 16 years old. At that time, the hidden dragon will emerge from the abyss, and the universe will change. Before that, I will also nurture Ping’an into a Heaven Arrival realm expert.”
Yang Che, Chen Zuo, and Chen Li could not help but look at Ping’an. Their eyelids twitched.
What kind of freak was this kid!
A sixteen-year-old Heaven Arrival realm expert sounded impossible, but with Ping’an’s physique and the Spiritual Qi of the Spirit Gathering Pill and the Earth Spirit Tree, it was not impossible!
The four of them chatted for a while more before Chen Li and the other two left.
Jiang Changsheng began to guide Jiang Ziyu in cultivating the Heavenly Scripture of the Universe. The stronger Jiang Ziyu’s martial arts were, the safer he would be in the future.
Spring passed and autumn came.
Two years passed.
In the 43rd year of the Jing Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty to the east of the Great Jing allied with Ancient Han and invaded the northern regions of Shenzhou and Hongzhou. Crown Prince Jiang Yu had no choice but to retreat and return to the capital.
Everyone in the world could tell that the Great Jing was already at the end of its rope. Order was becoming more and more chaotic everywhere, and bandits were rampant. The commoners were struggling to survive.
It was August that year, and it was scorching hot.
Another peerless expert came to challenge Longqi Temple.
“Ji Que of Tianshan Mountain has come to challenge you. If I die, I wish to enter the Hero’s Tomb!”
A domineering shout resounded throughout Longqi Temple like a loud bell, shocking everyone.
Xu Tianji was moved. He turned to look at Jiang Changsheng and said, “Tianshan Ji Que is one of the five Grandmasters. He retired from the martial arts world 50 years ago and is almost a hundred years old. Daoist Master, you have to be careful.
One of the five Grandmasters!
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes. The strongest grandmaster of the martial arts world of Great Jing had finally appeared. He sensed that the other party should have already stepped into the Divine realm and his true qi was stronger than Xu Tianji’s.
He stood up and said, “Looks like the reputation of the Hero’s Tomb has completely spread. Prepare to unearth it!”
Everyone followed him excitedly. The five Grandmasters were all legendary figures, and they could be considered martial arts legends.
A martial arts legend versus a martial arts legend!
This was a battle that was hard to come by in decades!
Jiang Changsheng brought everyone to the entrance of the mountain. Some devotees also came to join in the fun.
Ji Que was dressed in a white robe and had his hands behind his back. His body was strong, but his face was weathered and his hair was white. He looked to be in his sixties or seventies, but he was actually nearly a hundred years old. The aura of a Grandmaster could be seen with the naked eye, as if he could withstand the sky even if it collapsed.
Seeing Jiang Changsheng, Ji Que narrowed his eyes and sized him up carefully. “Daoist Master Changsheng, it seems that you are proficient in the art of preserving your looks.”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Who doesn’t want to be younger? Thank you for coming to strengthen the reputation of the Hero’s Tomb today, senior.”
Ji Que snorted and said, “My lifespan is coming to an end. Instead of dying deep in the mountains, it’s better to fight against the current legend of the martial arts world. You’re very strong, and I can’t see through you. With someone like you in the martial arts world of Great Jing, we old farts can leave in peace.”
He raised his right palm and slapped the ground. His true qi erupted, and twelve green sword shadows condensed behind him. They fanned out and had a sharp aura that made people shiver.
He did not waste his breath and slapped Jiang Changsheng. Twelve green sword shadows shot out, tearing through the air. Sword light flashed, and even the citizens in the capital could see it.
Jiang Changsheng waved the Qilin Horsetail Whisk and flung its long whiskers, scattering the twelve sword shadows.
If Ji Que was domineering, then Jiang Changsheng was carefree. He had already shown who was strong and who was weak.
‘He held back back then,’ Xu Tianji thought to himself.
He had stayed in Longqi Temple for nine years and had not stopped cultivating. He was already stronger than before, but compared to Ji Que, he was still much inferior. However, such a powerful Ji Que did not have any strength in front of Jiang Changsheng.
Ji Que was moved. He did not expect his ultimate technique to be so weak. His eyes were cold as he placed his right hand behind his back and rushed towards Jiang Changsheng.
Boom!
His true qi erupted, and Ji Que actually transformed into a green sword that was about to penetrate Jiang Changsheng in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and extended his index finger with his left hand. Spiritual energy shot out.
Ping—
The green sword was shattered, and Ji Que fell to the ground. He took a few steps back, and blood could not help but gush out of his mouth. His eyes widened, and his body swayed. He stared at Jiang Changsheng and asked, “This is… what… ultimate technique…”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Chen family, Qi Finger.”
Thump!
Ji Que fell to the ground and died with grievances. A pool of blood flowed out from under him.
Before he died, his last thought was, who was the Chen family? There was actually such a peerless ultimate technique!
