Chapter 311: Xu Mang's shock on the eve of the breakthrough
Jiang Changsheng looked at the emperor for a while and then looked away.
He continued to calculate the strongest people in other ranges to determine his own strength level. At present, there was not much danger for the time being, which was enough for him to practice with peace of mind and break through as soon as possible.
He has secretly decided that after reaching the tenth level of the Dao Fa Zi Ran Gong, he will make adjustments to Da Jing. The first is to allow the people of Da Jing to live a more stable life and put the government on the right track, and the second is to effectively increase the growth of incense value.
Jiang Changsheng never avoids his own heart. He attaches great importance to the value of incense. His heart is not so compassionate, but if he can bring a better life to the people in the process of strengthening himself, he will not be stingy.
After finishing the calculation, Jiang Changsheng continued to practice.
The transformation of the Eye of the Avenue allowed him to begin to feel the opportunity for a breakthrough, and he felt that he was not far from a breakthrough.
He has begun to look forward to the changes after the breakthrough.
As for the internal fighting within Dajing during this period, just let them fight and see what they can come up with.
…
In the twelfth year of Dinghe, just after the New Year, the emperor carried out a series of rewards and dismissed many old ministers, including appointing Yang Yuanhong as the General of Cavalry and dismissing a prime minister who had served three dynasties.
The bloody storm in Shuntian City continues.
In the 13th year of Dinghe, the Marquis of Zhengfa and his generals were transferred to the northern border, and An Chang appeared to be all-powerful in the court.
At the end of the year, Emperor Jiang Ci announced his abdication and Crown Prince Jiang Xuannian ascended the throne. The news spread throughout the world.
The following year, Jiang Xuannian ascended the throne and changed the reign title to Yanwu. During the first year of Yanwu, Jiang Xuannian emphasized military affairs and promoted many generals, most of whom were from the Yang family. However, in November of the same year, a race of ferocious beasts attacked from the north. This race was not an intelligent race, but they were huge in size, and their group invasion was unstoppable. Jiang Xuannian had to mobilize the Tiance Army and the northern states to resist.
March, the second year of Yanwu.
In the Shuntianzong Palace, Jiang Xuannian sat beside the bed, looking at Emperor Dinghe Jiang Ci who was lying on the bed.
Jiang Ci was very weak. He half-opened his eyes and breathed very slowly. He said, "Xuan Nian... The world has changed. The imperial power is no longer supreme. Including me, three emperors have been assassinated. They are getting bolder and bolder. You have to be careful..."
Jiang Xuannian was still holding the small tripod in his hand. The Heavenly and Earthly Treasure Toad was a rare treasure in heaven and earth, and he dared not let it go for a moment.
Listening to his father's words, Jiang Xuannian sighed and said, "Father, the fate of the Jiang family is already determined. What if I am careful?"
After ascending the throne, he found that many things were no longer decided by the emperor.
It all started when Jiang Ci allowed An Chang and Yang Zheng to fight each other. The two forces used the name of fighting to take over many of the emperor's confidants. The Yang family controlled the defense of Shuntian city. An Chang was protected by a mysterious strong man, and the Yang family could not do anything to him. The emperor was in a dilemma, realizing that both forces could take his life, and did not dare to dismiss An Chang and Yang Zheng easily.
After that battle, the situation in Shuntian reversed. An Chang and Yang Zheng seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. On the surface, they were still fighting, but in fact they had been assassinating the White Guards and weakening the emperor's strength.
Two years ago, the emperor was assassinated by a mysterious master, who did not kill him but only seriously injured him, forcing him to abdicate.
During the transfer of imperial power, the emperor was afraid that something might happen to Jiang Xuannian, so he transferred the Yang family away. After Jiang Xuannian ascended the throne, he was controlled by An Chang and had to call the Yang family back.
At this time, Jiang Xuannian realized that the court was no longer the Jiang family's court, but that of An Chang and the Yang family.
The Yang family could not do anything to An Chang, and An Chang acted strangely, making it difficult to figure out what he wanted to do. He did not suppress the Yang family excessively, but only made money.
Jiang Ci gritted his teeth and said, "If you can't hold on, then go find Daozu... Even if he has become estranged from us, we are still related by blood. Your grandfather wants us to be strong, but we are powerless. I have seen clearly that the fate of the Emperor of Yun Dynasty is predetermined, just like the limit of life span."
Jiang Xuannian shook his head and said, "Asking Daozu for help cannot cure the problem completely. I feel that the fate of the Jiang family has been determined, and it is my line that is determined. I plan to support Xuanzhen, stir up a rebellion among the princes, and let Xuanzhen seek the throne of the Son of Heaven and reshape Dajing!"
The more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became. He said excitedly, "Since ancient times, there has never been an immortal dynasty. Those dynasties that have survived for hundreds of years have all experienced turmoil in the imperial power. The clan members have turned the tide and continued the country's fortune . The reason why they were able to continue was that they turned the country upside down in the chaos. Only through chaos can order be established."
Jiang Ci looked at Jiang Xuannian with complicated eyes and asked, "Are you willing to give it up?"
Jiang Ci had also thought about it, but such a plan was too shameful and would inevitably be infamous for eternity and become a joke in future history books.
"Xuan Zhen has the potential to become an emperor of the ages. I am willing to make wedding clothes for him."
Jiang Xuannian said seriously, with some anticipation in his eyes.
Jiang Ci sighed and said, "You have been doting on Xuan Zhen since you were a child. This affection will harm you."
Jiang Xuannian smiled and said, "As an elder brother, I have to take care of my younger brother. Even if he becomes the emperor, he is still your descendant, and I believe he will treat my heir well."
…
At the end of the year, Emperor Dinghe Jiang Ci passed away and was posthumously named Emperor Xuan. Because he had no achievements during his reign and there was internal strife, Jiang Xuannian could not withstand the pressure and sent Jiang Ci to the Taimiao.
In the third year of Yanwu, the emperor appointed his younger brother Jiang Xuanzhen as King of Wei and sent him to serve in a state in the northern border. This incident did not cause much response. As vassal kings were born every year, people all over the world were no longer surprised by this.
In the same year, the ferocious beasts in the north were finally killed, and the armies in various states fought openly and secretly for the corpses of the ferocious beasts.
In the fourth year of Yanwu, the queen died of poisoning. The whole court was shocked, the emperor was furious, and the Yang family was also furious. So they gathered a large army to besiege Shuntian City. They determined that it was An Chang who did it. A war broke out, resulting in countless casualties in Shuntian City. The mysterious strong man behind An Chang took action and repelled the Yang army. Afterwards, Yang Zheng issued the emperor's secret decree to the world, asking all parts of the world to come to attack An Chang. Whoever kills An Chang can be made king.
The world is in chaos again!
This year, Jiang Changsheng was 321 years old.
Inside the Taoist temple, he opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashing in them.
"I'm finally going to break through, but I'm afraid this breakthrough will take some time."
Jiang Changsheng muttered to himself, he stood up and walked out of the Taoist temple. Everyone in the courtyard was leaving, and when they saw him appear, they all stood up and saluted.
"Master, has the breakthrough been successful?"
Bai Qi asked excitedly, his words full of anticipation.
Jiang Changsheng said: "Not yet, but soon, I have something to tell you."
Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, Jiang Tianming, Ye Xundi, Sword God, Jinwu, Bailong, Taiwa, and Taixi were all curious.
Daozu hadn't told them what to do for a long time.
Not long after, Chen Li arrived, and seeing that everyone was waiting eagerly, he also became nervous.
Jiang Changsheng motioned him to sit down, and then said: "Next, I will prepare for enlightenment and breakthrough, and I will not come out again in a short time. This world is left to you to take care of. Chen Li, I allow your plan to proceed, but there is one thing, Dajing cannot be lost."
Upon hearing this, Chen Li nodded quickly.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the others and said, "If the Jiang family is in trouble, you can also help them, but Tianming cannot help."
Jiang Tianming heard this and asked wailingly, "What if you reach the realm of martial arts saint king?"
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, "Then let's see who breaks through first."
"OK!"
Jiang Tianming's eyes lit up. He was very excited to be able to compete with his grandfather in breakthrough speed.
Mu Lingluo said: "Don't worry, I will ask the Mu family to help. This Jiangshan will always be named Jiang, and Dajing will not perish."
Others gave assurances one after another, including Ji Wujun.
Although the world is in chaos, they really don't take it seriously.
Jiang Changsheng gave each of them a strand of hair, saying it could save their lives in critical moments, and then he got up and returned to Zixiao Palace.
"Could it be a magic spell like throwing beans to create soldiers?" Ye Xundi asked excitedly.
Ji Wujun smiled and said, "Perhaps, but there is no way I will be in danger."
She really didn't take the strong men in the world of Dajing seriously. Only Guan Sheng could beat her. Besides, Guan Sheng was one of her own.
"Give it to me, then."
"No."
Faced with Ye Xundi's request, Ji Wujun directly refused and then put Jiang Changsheng's hair away.
Mu Lingluo looked at her with a meaningful look, but didn't say anything.
Inside the Zixiao Palace.
Jiang Changsheng sat down, looked at the 300 million worth being accompanying Xu Mang, and murmured: "I have waited for you for so long, and you are still dormant, so go to the underworld."
The Eye of the Great Dao between his brows opened, shining with golden light.
At this time, the clone came back with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Mirror of Heaven and Earth and merged into his body.
A golden light suddenly shot out from the Eye of the Avenue and disappeared into thin air.
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes as well. Since he wanted to break through, he had to break through with peace of mind. Although a net worth of 300 million was not important to him, there was really no one in Dajing who could match him.
…
Among the mountains, Xu Mang was sitting in meditation with his upper body naked by the lake. The lake was surrounded by mountains and the scenery was picturesque.
Next to Xu Mang, there was a man lying on the ground with his legs crossed and a piece of grass in his mouth. He was wearing a cloth shirt and his hair was casually disheveled, looking very out of place.
Xu Mang opened his eyes and asked, "Master, how long do I have to practice?"
The cloth-clothed man closed his eyes and said lazily, "When you can attract the stars from the sky, you can leave the mountain."
Xu Mang frowned and asked, "Can this unique skill really reach that level?"
Upon hearing this, the cloth-clothed man immediately sat up and said seriously, "Are you questioning your master? Our Tianxu clan is a powerful clan in Taihuang. With the power of heaven and earth, we swept across Taihuang and almost became the royal clan of Taihuang!"
Xu Mang’s brows furrowed even deeper.
"Just continue to practice. Besides, you are not fit to go out now. Wait a little longer."
The man in plain clothes lay down again and changed into a comfortable position.
Xu Mang looked at the man in plain clothes and became alert.
The other party saved him and was a foreigner, so there must be a conspiracy. But he needed the other party's help, so even if it was a conspiracy, he had to step into it.
Xu Mang asked, "Master, can the strongest being of your Tianxu clan compare to the Daozu of our Dajing?"
The cloth-clothed man heard this and said disdainfully: "Daozu? Who is he? Our Tianxiu clan is stronger than the Qiangliang clan..."
boom!
A golden light fell from the sky and hit the man in cloth. The terrifying impact force sent Xu Mang flying.
Xu Mang somersaulted and slid on the surface of the lake, quickly steadying his body . He looked closely with a dull expression, and saw that the cloth-clothed man was blown into charred bones. The breeze blew away and his body was blown away by the wind. There was no trace of his body left.
"How is it possible..."
