Chapter 82 Is there any realm above the Golden Body Realm?
In a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
October.
A year had passed since that shocking decisive battle, and Dajing was still consolidating its territory and government. Jiang Xiu had not been to Longqi Temple for several months, as he was busy helping the emperor handle government affairs.
Now that Dajing's territory has doubled, the demand for civil and military manpower is far greater than before. Jiang Ziyu is busy until very late every day, and Hua Jianxin asks Jiang Changsheng for elixirs for him every month, for fear that he will get sick.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng refined the three thousand year old flaming ginseng into pills, which were more potent and could be better absorbed by his disciples.
He called Arakawa and gave him the pill.
Apart from him, the other disciples of Longqi Temple are very weak and not qualified to be used. Although Ling Xiao had a fortuitous encounter, it was only swordsmanship, and his skills barely reached the level of God's Heart, which was far from comparable to Arakawa.
When Arakawa learned about the efficacy of the pill, he was so excited that he immediately kowtowed to thank Jiang Changsheng.
Baiqi was extremely jealous, and his eyes were like knives, making Arakawa very uncomfortable.
Afterwards, Arakawa didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly slipped away.
I believe that within a few months, the first genius will be born in Longqi Temple. As for Ping An, he does not count because he was created by the imperial power. Now Ping An is the most powerful general in Dajing and does not count as a disciple of Longqi Temple.
Jiang Changsheng stretched lazily and checked the incense value.
[Current incense value: 490743]
Four hundred and ninety thousand!
This is a terrifying statistic, which means that there are 490,000 people burning incense for him in the world today.
In this world without technological civilization, where information transmission is opaque, the fact that he has gained the faith of so many people is enough to show Jiang Changsheng's current status in Dajing.
Is this considered a great and virtuous teacher?
No, he can't compare with me.
Jiang Changsheng thought proudly that it was not just the common people who believed in him. Many powerful people in the capital had his statue in their homes.
Hundreds of years from now, will he become a mythical figure?
Jiang Changsheng felt a little excited just thinking about it.
The incense value brings him not only a sense of accomplishment, but also a sense of security.
With so much incense value used to overcome the tribulation, it should be safe, right?
Jiang Changsheng didn't want to die not at the hands of the enemy, but from a natural calamity.
He closed his eyes and continued to practice. Recently, the emperor sent him a lot of medicinal herbs, including tributes from other dynasties, which allowed him to refine many pills and saved him a lot of practice time.
We are very close to a breakthrough!
Jiang Changsheng was full of expectations and decided to concentrate on cultivation and not worry about worldly affairs.
…
There is an inn at the junction of the beach and the woods. There are five tables. Fishermen are resting at two tables, and there is another table where two martial artists are sitting and drinking.
It was Xiao Buku, the son of Meng Qiuhe and Xiao Daotian, the owner of the Mahayana Dragon Tower.
Meng Qiuhe put down his wine bowl and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Xiao Buku buried his head in the wine and drank three bowls in a row before he said, "No need to think about it anymore. I have no choice."
Meng Qiuhe was silent.
Xiao Buku waved his hand and asked the waiter to bring three more jars of wine.
Meng Qiuhe said with emotion: "Everyone thinks that Daozu is an immortal being, but few people know that he is less than seventy years old. With his realm, he can suppress Dajing for another hundred years. It is really meaningless to stay. I heard that the current emperor is expanding the White Guards, perhaps to target the Mahayana Dragon Tower. You should really leave, but why do you want to go overseas?"
The ocean below Dajing is a restricted area. People only dare to salvage along the coast and dare not go too deep. Not only Dajing, but all dynasties did not dare to set foot in the deep sea.
Xiao Buku said sarcastically, "If not overseas, where should I go? Is there any place for me in this world? The Mahayana Dragon Tower is now a rat crossing the street. Those Chaozong who are on good terms with us are hunting down the disciples I sent to show our friendship. They are afraid that if they have anything to do with us, they will be held hostage by that demon."
His smile became more bitter, and his former confidence and elegance were no longer there.
When he learned that Jiang Changsheng had killed a Golden Body Realm cultivator, he knew that the Mahayana Dragon Tower could never be resurrected and would only become the dust of history.
If Jiang Changsheng was only at the Golden Body Realm, he still had a glimmer of hope. After all, the Golden Body Realm had appeared in the history of Mahayana Dragon Tower, but it was five hundred years apart.
How powerful must one be to be able to easily kill someone in the Golden Body Realm?
The most important thing is that he learned the real age of the demon from Meng Qiuhe. Although he could not understand how the demon practiced, he understood one thing, that he had no hope of revenge in this life, so he had to avoid the killing first. If an amazing genius appeared in the future, he could talk about restoring the dynasty.
Meng Qiuhe asked: "Then go, maybe there is a broader world overseas."
Xiao Bukui nodded and continued to drink.
Half an hour later.
Xiao Buku stood up, drew the sword from his waist, killed everyone in the inn, looted the fishing boats, and then moved all the food and drinks in the inn to the boats. He also tied five fishing boats together so that they could carry more food and wine.
Meng Qiuhe looked at him silently.
After doing all this, Xiao Buku stood on the fishing boat and used his true energy to push the boat away from the shore.
He shouted to Meng Qiuhe, "Old man Meng, I'm afraid this is our last farewell in this life. If there is an afterlife, we will be brothers, not just friends of different ages."
He regained his former carefree look, which made Meng Qiuhe laugh. He waved at him, signaling him to leave quickly.
Meng Qiuhe stood up only after watching Xiao Buku disappear in the fog at the end of the sea level.
Meng Qiuhe looked at the rolling green hills behind the inn and suddenly felt confused.
The world is so big, where should he go?
He thought of his sister Meng Qiushuang and his eyes dimmed. She was his only relative in the world, but he abandoned her. He suddenly felt that his life was a failure. Even if he had acquired peerless martial arts, what was the use? In the end, he was still alone.
…
Jiang Changsheng didn't know that he had scared the enemies and they fled from Dajing. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Only by becoming stronger and stronger can they defend their own territory. The biggest mistake of Dacheng Dragon Tower, Tongwu Valley and Juxing Tower is that they are not strong enough and are not as strong as him!
Jiang Changsheng wanted to keep himself secret and must not tell others about his own realm. From now on, he would regard himself as being in the Golden Body Realm. If some ignorant people came to cause trouble , it would be just a reward for his survival.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng summoned old disciples such as Qing Ku, Huang Chuan, Ling Xiao, Wan Li and others, filling the courtyard with seats. He told his disciples about the realm of martial arts.
"Above the first-rate is the true essence. The condensed true energy is the true essence."
"Above the true energy is the spiritual consciousness. When the true energy is released and the senses are heightened, it is the spiritual consciousness."
"Above the spiritual consciousness is Tongtian, where one can use the true energy freely. In this state, one can continuously accumulate power, and it is a transitional state in martial arts."
"Above Tongtian is the divine heart, and the divine heart is the martial arts master. At this level, one can understand the mind and communicate with the gods, and can already open up his own martial arts."
“Above the divine heart is the divine man. The divine man can break free from the constraints of the earth, step into the air, and move instantly. It goes without saying that his skills will undergo a transformation. This is the first major transformation of martial arts.”
The disciples listened carefully. Although Longqi Temple had Jiang Changsheng's martial arts, the disciples were generally only at the Zhenyuan realm, and only one-third had reached the Lingshi realm. If it were decades ago, Taoist Qingxu would not have dared to think about it, but in Jiang Changsheng's eyes, they were still too weak.
"Above the gods, there is the golden body. The body is made of gold, the skin and flesh are like steel, and are indestructible. The Dantian of the golden body realm is far superior to that of gods. It can compress the true energy, like a blazing flame. Every move has the power to destroy mountains and break cities."
Golden Body Realm!
There was fanaticism in the disciples' eyes. Now in Dajing, the Golden Body Realm was no longer a secret. When mentioning the Golden Body Realm, people would think of Daozu.
Arakawa couldn't help but ask, "Is there a realm above the Golden Body Realm?"
Ling Xiao also stared at Jiang Changsheng closely. They were also in that decisive battle. After the victory, they were awarded official positions and enjoyed court salaries. They felt that Jiang Changsheng must have surpassed the Golden Body Realm.
Jiang Changsheng showed a look of regret and said, "I also want to know what realm is above the Golden Body Realm. Unfortunately, I have been staying in Dajing all the time. How can I know what is going on in the world? I hope that some of my younger disciples can surpass the Golden Body Realm and step into the higher realm that I don't know now."
These words made the disciples' blood boil.
Arakawa and Ling Xiao even take this as their goal and pursue it throughout their lives.
Another stick of incense time passed and the disciples dispersed. Jiang Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. It was a bit tiring to talk so much at once.
Bai Qi couldn't help but ask, "Master, you really don't know the realm above the Golden Body Realm?"
Wang Chen picked up the broom and said with a smile: "You demon wolf, if the Taoist says you don't know, then you don't know. If you ask again, I will throw you into the medicine cauldron."
Hearing this, Bai Qi couldn't help but look at Jiang Changsheng. Seeing Jiang Changsheng's malicious look, he was so scared that he trembled all over and dared not ask any more questions.
Jiang Changsheng seemed to have thought of something and said, "Wangchen, ask Wanli and Mingyue to take care of Qing'er and teach her how to be the next eldest disciple. Of course, don't tell her this."
Wang Chen nodded, but was still a little confused, and asked: "Master, she is still so young, why do you think she can become the next eldest disciple?"
Longqi Temple is no longer what it used to be. It has nearly a thousand disciples and is involved in a lot of incense and candlelight business. The eldest disciple has to make friends with the powerful people in the capital, which is a test of his worldly wisdom, and he also has to have a certain strength to win over the people.
"I think she looks a lot like Meng Qiushuang."
Jiang Changsheng said with a smile, Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.
He left with the broom. Although he thought this reason was nonsense, Jiang Changsheng was not an ordinary person. Perhaps this woman really had extraordinary talent.
Jiang Changsheng continued to practice under the tree.
A few days later.
Hua Jianxin led a boy into the courtyard. The boy was only two or three years old, but his steps were steady, unlike other children of the same age.
"Bai Qi, please go out for a moment."
Hua Jianxin gave the order, Bai Qi opened his eyes, and although he was confused, he still left obediently.
There were only three of them left in the courtyard.
Hua Jianxin let the boy go and let him play by himself. The boy was not restrained and ran to the medicine cauldron with a curious expression on his face.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and looked at him.
Hua Jianxin smiled and said, "Did you see it?"
Jiang Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said, "There's something wrong with his birthmark."
Hua Jianxin nodded and whispered, "That's right, this kid is less than three years old, and his body is actually automatically condensing true energy. I have observed that the true energy is surging on his birthmark."
She was very excited and felt that this boy had inherited Jiang Changsheng's bloodline.
The birthmarks between the eyebrows of other princes, including Jiang Ziyu, seemed to be just for decoration, but this prince was different.
