Chapter 143 I Can See the Ends of the World
Hearing Jiang Changsheng's words, Emperor Shuntian's heart was filled with emotion. He suddenly understood the heroism of Emperor Jing Taizong and the tenacity of his father.
It feels so good to have someone to back you up!
Emperor Shuntian took a deep breath and said, "Then I will reject him. Dajing is growing stronger in all aspects, including martial arts. With the Zhenwu Pavilion you have established and the connections of Qiyuan Chamber of Commerce on the sea, we don't need Xuankong Island at all. Instead, they need us."
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said nothing more.
Bai Qi teased, "Little Emperor, when will we march into the ocean?"
Emperor Shuntian pondered and said, "Let's wait another ten years. I really want to gain a foothold in the ocean. Instead of fighting all the way up, it is better to develop a maritime army. It can not only collect marine resources, but also serve as a surprise force in the future. We can even surround the continent with the ocean and annex the world!"
He began to talk incessantly about his plan. In this courtyard, he felt at ease and was not afraid that his plan would be spread out. Even if it was spread out, it would not matter because his plan was an open conspiracy!
He wanted to build a large number of teleportation arrays and station troops on islands in the ocean, then surround the Dragon Vessel Continent, continuously oppress it, cut off the connection between the dynasties and the ocean forces, and finally surround and fight again to swallow up the world in one fell swoop.
Now it is a very obvious fact that the development on the ocean is stronger than that on the Dragon Vein Continent, not only in martial arts, but also in social production tools. As long as the connection between each dynasty and the ocean is cut off, the gap between each dynasty and Dajing will only get bigger and bigger.
Jiang Changsheng listened to Emperor Shuntian's wild ideas without giving any opinion. This plan sounded good, but it also had many shortcomings. However, this was true for any plan. Emperor Shuntian would spend decades laying the groundwork for this plan. Looking back decades later, perhaps many of the shortcomings would no longer exist.
As long as Emperor Shuntian dares to think, Dajing will have a future.
When Jiang Ziyu wanted to double the size of Dajing, how many people dared to believe it? Decades later, Dajing has grown from thirteen states to ninety-nine states, so many things cannot be judged from the current perspective.
Emperor Shuntian chatted for a long time before leaving with something to say.
A few days later, powerful bursts of true energy erupted in the capital, but soon disappeared.
The envoy from Hanging Island was extremely angry after being rejected, but he finally endured it and did not dare to take action in the capital.
Dajing is no longer the same as it used to be. There is no need for Jiang Changsheng to take action. If the gods cause trouble in the capital, they are seeking death.
As for those in the Golden Body Realm, they dare not come, as they all cherish their lives very much.
To common people, Daozu is like a living Bodhisattva, but in the eyes of warriors at the Golden Body Realm and above, Daozu is a killing god, and Dajingsizhou is a forbidden place on earth!
…
The third year of Shuntian.
On the New Year's Day, Emperor Shuntian did not follow Renzong's example and invite the lords of subordinate dynasties and holy places to visit the palace. Instead, he came to the Longqishan courtyard alone. He brought good wine, delicacies and snacks, filled the stone table, and even asked the White Guards to bring a large amount of specially fed beef to Bailong.
Jiang Changsheng naturally understood what he meant by deliberately showing his goodwill, but he had to admit that this boy was very thoughtful and made him feel very comfortable.
Unlike previous years, this year's New Year's Day was unusually lively. With Bai Qi and Emperor Shuntian present, the noise in the courtyard never stopped. Jiang Changsheng suddenly understood why the old man in his previous life was looking forward to the children returning home for the New Year.
I'm used to the quietness, so it's nice to have some fun occasionally.
Jiang Changsheng tasted the snack and found it delicious. It reminded him of the young Jiang Yu, but he had long forgotten what the snacks tasted like a hundred years ago.
The Sword God was also drinking and in a good mood, only because Emperor Shuntian was flattering him crazily, claiming that there were countless warriors in Dajing who admired him. Emperor Shuntian also listed some of the top martial arts champions. The Sword God was very happy to hear this, but he could only drink and pretend to be indifferent.
"In the future, if Senior Sword God is willing to come out, I will definitely hold a grand event for you, a sword contest for the whole country. How about it? This event is specially created for swordsmen. The winner will be personally decreed by me to be named Sword Saint, second only to Sword God..."
Emperor Shuntian spoke very excitedly. He was obviously a little drunk. He didn't even bother to maintain courtesy in front of Jiang Changsheng. He started to use his hands and feet. At this moment, he looked like a real teenager.
After all, he was only thirteen years old.
Jiang Changsheng looked at Emperor Shuntian with a smile and suddenly found him quite cute.
Fireworks were blooming in the capital, and the people in front of me were toasting each other, looking very happy.
In Jiang Changsheng's opinion, this night was the best night he had had in the past twenty years.
…
After the New Year, Emperor Shuntian was obviously more motivated. During the morning court, all the ministers found that he had a more domineering aura. Although he was still young, he had become more decisive in making decisions on many major events, unlike Emperor Renzong who was so hesitant.
Real dragon!
This name gradually spread, from the mouths of officials to the mouths of merchants, then to the mouths of ordinary people all over the world, and even to the ears of people from all dynasties.
I wonder how many dynasties secretly resented why the emperors of Dajing were always so outstanding and why there were no incompetent rulers.
Any dynasty will have incompetent rulers. However, Dajing has been around for more than a hundred years, and there seems to be no truly incompetent ruler. You should know that the reason why the originally expanding Da Qi stopped was because of the change of imperial power and the emergence of an emperor who only knew how to have fun.
The scenery is getting better and better, and so is Longqi Temple.
Under Qing'er's management, more and more talented martial artists have been discovered, and the overall martial arts strength of the disciples has steadily improved.
In a blink of an eye.
Half a year passed.
Song Li rushed over from Yuzhou to visit Emperor Shuntian.
In the imperial study.
Song Li looked grim, and said, "Your Majesty, my people found out at sea that Qiannanhai Sect is gathering a large number of disciples to rush to the East Sea Dynasty. It is said that there is also Luo Sect. Luo Sect, like Qiannanhai Sect, has masters in the Cave Heaven Realm. I even found out that the leader of Luo Sect visited the second-ranked Red Moon Patriarch in Tianhai. Red Moon Patriarch came out of retreat at the end of last year and is very likely to have reached the rumored Second Cave Heaven Realm. In other words, he is very likely to be the most powerful existence in Tianhai. If Red Moon Patriarch joins forces with Qiannanhai Sect and Luo Sect, Dajing will be in danger!"
Emperor Shuntian frowned, put down the memorial, and asked: "How big is the gap between the Second Cave Heaven and the First Cave Heaven? Do you think the Dao Ancestor who easily defeated the First Cave Heaven has reached the Second Cave Heaven, and can he withstand the combined efforts of the three Cave Heaven masters?"
Song Li smiled bitterly and said, "How would I know? I am only here to pass on information. I didn't use the Wanli Eagle because I was afraid it would be intercepted."
Recently, there have been occasional cases of Wanli Eagles being intercepted by mysterious masters. Zhang Ying can do nothing about this. If each city is guarded by a god, the probability of such incidents happening can be greatly reduced.
Of course, this is one reason. The second reason is that Song Li is afraid of death and wants to hide in the capital.
There are countless masters in Qiannan Haizong. He has already learned that Tianren Feng is sending people to search for him, and the fact that he is building a navy for Dajing cannot be hidden at all.
"I understand, you may go down." Emperor Shuntian waved his hand.
Song Li hesitated and said, "I have not been feeling well recently and would like to recuperate in my residence. I wonder..."
Emperor Shuntian rolled his eyes at him and nodded slightly.
Song Li hurriedly thanked Emperor Shuntian, then turned and left. He breathed a sigh of relief and a smile .
"Qiannan Haizong, come here and die!"
Song Li thought proudly in his heart, his eyes full of anticipation.
…
That day, Emperor Shuntian personally found Jiang Changsheng and informed him of the matter.
Jiang Changsheng said he understood, and Emperor Shuntian did not ask any further questions, choosing to believe the ancestor.
After he left, Jiang Changsheng looked in the direction of the East China Sea Dynasty and activated the Eye of Infinite Heaven and Earth. Almost instantly, he saw the East China Sea Dynasty and began to search quickly.
Being able to see the Donghai Dynasty is one thing, but searching it carefully is another.
He decided to search from the seaside and looked along the coastline. Soon, he saw a large number of ships and many figures floating in the air, which were the gods.
Jiang Changsheng hesitated whether to shoot them to death right now, but then he changed his mind and decided not to do so as it would easily alert the enemy.
He would wait for the three Cave Heaven Realm masters to take action, and then continue to reap the harvest.
He looked for a while before looking away.
Bai Qi asked curiously, "Your eyes are shining, what are you looking at? What kind of martial arts is this? Can you see far away?"
Jiang Changsheng said calmly: "I can see the ends of the earth, do you believe it?"
"Yes!"
Bai Qi answered immediately, then came over to lick Jiang Changsheng's hand. Jiang Changsheng immediately pushed it away. It was not sad or angry, but walked to the side and lay down obediently.
The Sword God rolled his eyes when he saw this scene. He felt that his swordsmanship was insulted.
Months passed by.
In the fourth year of Shuntian, another lively New Year has just passed.
One day, Jiang Changsheng was practicing martial arts when he suddenly realized something. He opened his eyes, stood up, and began to stretch his muscles.
Seeing his posture, Bai Qi asked curiously , "Could it be that the masters of the Cave Heaven Realm that the little emperor mentioned are about to arrive?"
Jiang Changsheng nodded slightly.
The Sword God then stood up, his face full of anticipation.
He was really looking forward to the battle in the cave.
Unlike the last battle with the Human King, Jiang Changsheng held back. This time, facing the enemy, Jiang Changsheng would definitely kill him. Moreover, there were more than one enemies, including a second-level cave-sky expert.
This battle will surely allow him to gain many insights.
At the end of the sky and earth, rolling dark clouds slowly swept towards the capital, covering the mountains and rivers, hiding the huge meteorite, and plunging half of the world into darkness.
Emperor Shuntian, who was dealing with various problems, suddenly felt a thorn between his eyebrows. It was his birthmark that hurt. He rubbed it subconsciously and began to feel uneasy.
He seemed to have thought of something, and immediately stood up and walked outside the imperial study.
Xing Shou appeared out of nowhere behind him and said, "It looks like the enemy is coming."
Emperor Shuntian was worried. Although Jiang Changsheng agreed, would the attack of three cave-heaven realm masters harm innocent people?
In the mansion next to the imperial palace, the white-haired and weak Human King walked out of the room. He looked up with difficulty, his eyes full of fear.
He felt an extremely terrifying murderous aura, which was even stronger than the aura that Daozu had felt when he faced him.
Could he be a master from overseas?
He began to worry about Dajing. He didn't want Dajing to die just after he passed on his skills to Emperor Dajing.
