Chapter 215 Immortal Scripture
Chapter 215 Immortal Scripture
The Jiang family was wiped out overnight.
This is a very important matter.
The next day, the entire Jiangnan region was shocked.
The news spread rapidly around the world.
Meanwhile, the other three major families were utterly shocked.
With the Jiang family destroyed, will they be next?
Who made this?
This is something that cannot be done with ordinary force.
Even martial arts organizations wouldn't have such methods.
It's important to understand how powerful the Jiang family is; they are capable of establishing a country directly outside of China. In other words, they hold the power to decide the lives and deaths of countless ordinary Chinese people.
Even the authorities would find it difficult to deal with.
And that's how it ended.
Who exactly has this ability?
Even many powerful and influential figures are unaware that the Jiang family actually has the Dragon Group backing them up.
The news of the Jiang family's destruction reached Longjing and also the Dragon Group, causing the faces of the cultivators and elders to darken.
They already knew who did it.
They must be cultivators from Kunlun Mountain. For the Dragon Group, cultivators from Kunlun Mountain are the biggest threat!
The two sides are arch-enemies who are constantly fighting each other in secret.
These are two forces secretly vying for supremacy.
Kunlun Mountain doesn't have a specific gate. The key is those mysterious immortal elders who travel the world. Wherever they go, that's Kunlun Mountain. Even the Dragon Group's experts can't find their base and uproot them.
The Dragon Group's base is located in Longjing.
The big boss behind the Dragon Group is called Lord Ding.
This is a Golden Core cultivator.
His true identity is that of a descendant of the second-generation Flood Dragon King.
Two hundred years ago, after being reborn as a human, he devoted himself to cultivation on a small island in Japan. A hundred years ago, he entered the Golden Core Realm, entered China, and took over the Dragon Group, which was in chaos and infighting. He suppressed all those who disobeyed him with his powerful strength.
Now, he controls a large army of cultivators, not only monopolizing all the scriptures available for cultivation in the world, but also supporting four major families in the secular world. They specifically oppress ordinary people in China, raising large numbers of ordinary people like livestock and cattle, and using the corrupted immortals to conduct all sorts of inhumane experiments. They not only exert various forms of mental oppression, but also create various forms of conflict. The real purpose of all this is to prevent the immortals from awakening and rising.
The three generations of the Flood Dragon King, of course, always knew who he was; it's just that now he had only taken on a human form in his womb.
Nowadays, he spends most of his time in seclusion. He has a monopoly on all ancient scriptures and cultivation resources, and all cultivators in the Dragon Group must obey him.
The news of the Jiang family's annihilation jolted him awake, and information on Yun Chen, Ye Mo, and others was delivered to him.
"Five Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivators, so young, they must be immortal prodigies trained by those guys from Kunlun Mountain."
"There are some things you'd better not do that cross the line, otherwise even if you come from the Kunlun Mountains, I won't let you off the hook."
Lord Ding conjured a flame in his palm, burning all the documents to ashes. He then left the elders with the words, "Completely nothing to worry about. If the Jiang family is destroyed, we can simply support another one. Sending a few pets to guard the area will be enough to handle most of the immortal cultivators from Kunlun Mountain!"
The Dragon Group knew of Yun Chen and his group's existence, and Lord Ding also learned of their situation. It wasn't that they didn't value them enough, but rather that after so many years of fighting, no one had been able to shake the Dragon Group's dominant position.
Furthermore, Lord Ding's most pressing task now is to find a way to break through. He wants to break through from the initial stage of the Golden Core realm to the middle stage, and from the third level to the fourth level. This is extremely difficult for him, and each advancement of a small realm is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Yun Chen had been in seclusion for seven days.
To avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he did not choose to seclude himself in the city, but instead went into the mountains near Cangcheng, cut open a cave with his longsword, sat cross-legged inside, studied the scriptures, and cultivated his spiritual path.
His magical power was as mighty as mountains and rivers, and he pushed it to its peak. At the same time, his vast true energy began to circulate wildly, turning into countless vortexes. His power was running wildly at this moment, converging towards one point, breaking through that invisible shackle, and trying to transform into a golden core in one fell swoop.
"roar!"
Yun Chen roared, his aura surging wildly, causing the energy of heaven and earth to tremble. His black hair flew wildly as he condensed his golden core, preparing to advance to this realm in one fell swoop—a substantial transformation in his cultivation and spiritual power.
However, he failed many times.
There's always that slight feeling that's missing.
He couldn't understand why, given his current level, having reached the pinnacle in all aspects of the Foundation Establishment Realm and with no further advancement possible, he was still unable to achieve a natural breakthrough.
During Yun Chen's seclusion, Qin Xi, Chu Miaomiao, and the others were not idle. While improving their own cultivation, they were also searching for the truth of the past, to find out what earth-shattering events had happened in the past and why the Immortal Clan had fallen into obscurity.
All they know now is that the demon race is harming China, while the immortal race is in disgrace, and China is the last ancestral home of the immortal race.
Ultimately, after a long search.
They found some scattered clues.
"The Dragon King!"
Three words came into their view, and they began frantically digging for information related to them.
They uncovered some clues about the Jiaolong clan.
The Jiaolong race is now extinct.
This monstrous race originated more than a thousand years ago and was the leading group of the entire sea beast demon race. It was in great opposition to the former Huaxia immortal race. Due to the drastic changes in the environment, it was destroyed.
That's all the information available.
The gaps in historical records are so severe that even cultivators with supernatural powers and techniques cannot fully grasp the truth.
To obtain more information, they can only try to decipher clues by searching for scriptures in various ancient caves. Otherwise, they will have no choice but to confront the Dragon Group head-on, storm the Dragon Group, and search for the large number of scriptures that are monopolized by them.
Seven days later, Yun Chen emerged from seclusion and returned to the city.
Unfortunately, he failed to condense the Golden Core.
However, this seclusion brought him unexpected gains, because as he approached the end of his seclusion, his blood surged and a scripture inexplicably appeared in his mind.
"The Willow Tree Technique, soaring lightly straight up to the ninth heaven."
Yun Chen was filled with surprise because this scripture had suddenly appeared in his mind during his seclusion. It was not one of the scriptures he had studied before. It was as if it was imprinted deep within his primordial spirit and had broken free from its seal after this seclusion. Moreover, this scripture was very special because it consisted of only a short rune.
Upon seeing Yun Chen return from seclusion, Qin Xi and the other two eagerly surrounded him. Chen Qinglan, who had gone out to investigate, did not stay with them.
"How did it go? Did you break through?"
Yun Chen shook his head: "It's not that easy."
Seeing this, no one asked any more questions.
Yun Chen shared this passage with everyone; it was only a short sentence: "The willow branches sway gently, soaring straight up to the ninth heaven."
Everyone looked at each other.
Ye Mo's expression changed slightly. He looked at everyone and said, "Just yesterday, my blood surged, and a passage of scripture suddenly appeared in my mind, which reads, 'Today, the long spear is drawn to bind the dragon.'"
Chu Miaomiao's expression was a little strange. She looked at them and said incredulously, "Me too. A passage of scripture came to mind: 'A bridge spans the north and south, turning a natural barrier into a thoroughfare.'"
Everyone looked at each other, utterly astonished.
They quickly wrote down the three passages of scripture.
Afterwards, everyone began to contemplate and deduce based on the scriptures.
However, they did not reach any conclusions.
"Willow branches sway gently, soaring straight up to the ninth heaven?"
"Has the long spear been drawn today to bind the dragon?"
"The bridge spans the north and south, turning a natural barrier into a thoroughfare."
These three lines of scripture had troubled them for a long time, and everyone was earnestly trying to understand the supreme truth contained within them.
Unfortunately, they always fell just short of understanding.
In the blink of an eye, spring has arrived, and all things are flourishing.
Zhao Ming had also mastered his skills and, with the help of Yun Chen and others, learned the truth about the Immortal Clan's obscurity.
Furthermore, Chen Qinglan gave him a mission: to go to the mortal world to begin his own trials, to use his strength to enlighten and inspire the immortals, and to unite them closely.
Zhao Ming only had the cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining, which was considered very weak among cultivators. Although he encountered many cultivators and faced danger, he still left without hesitation.
After so much time and cultivating alongside everyone, he has taken it upon himself to enlighten the Immortal Clan. He also wants to help the Immortal Clan achieve a great revival and liberate every member of the Immortal Clan from this invisible oppression.
