Book 7: Chapter 005: Call for Help

Divine Farmer City, former Yan Heavenly Dynasty’s capital:

After Jiang Lianshan died, the Yan Heavenly Dynasty’s blessings should have scattered. However, the blessings strangely reappeared.

Divine Yan Hall:

The doors were tightly shut. Only two people were in the palace hall: Jingwei and the Flame Monarch.

Jingwei sat on the throne with a long face.

“My excellent elder brother? Hahahaha! The moment he returned, he wanted to vie for the throne? Also, Ji Dihong? The Huang Heavenly Dynasty has already separated from us; there’s even the Myriad Age Daoist Sect between us. To think you dare to return to snatch territory? Do you think my Yan Nation is a battlefield where you can slaughter people at will?” Jingwei grimaced in anger.

“Jiang Gautama is the crown prince. The Huang Heavenly Emperor has connections. They do not just want to snatch territory and manpower; more importantly, they want the blessings, right?” The Flame Monarch frowned.

Jingwei’s expression changed. “I have Eminent Father’s Nation Overseeing Mandate. Since Eminent Father died, only I can use the Nation Overseeing Mandate to regather the scattered blessings for a short time. If they try to snatch the throne, they can gather a new batch of blessings themselves. Why do they want me to use the Nation Overseeing Mandate to regather the old blessings? Unless…unless Eminent Father placed that thing in the blessings cloud sea?”

“What thing?” The Flame Monarch felt startled.

“The most valuable treasure of the Yan Nation. Hahahaha! I wondered why they supported me to take over and even helped me manage the land and regather the old blessings. It turns out they need the Yan Heavenly Dynasty’s original blessings. They want that thing!” Jingwei laughed while appearing incredibly upset.

“If they help Princess regather the blessings, Princess might be able to inherit the Yan Nation. At that time…” Anticipation flashed in the Flame Monarch’s eyes.

“Hah! Can you not see? Jiang Gautama and Ji Dihong came looking for trouble, bringing plenty of experts. If I fight them, I won’t get anything. Once they get what they want, they won’t need to leave me alive. They are already keeping me trapped here. What can I use to fight them?” Jingwei said, distraught.

“Hah… I’m too incapable!” the Flame Monarch said bitterly.

“No, Uncle Flame Monarch, you are not to blame. You were loyal to Eminent Father and even gave your Flame Pearl to Eminent Father before you left. You have already done very well. Jiang Gautama? Ji Dihong? Those two ingrates. Eminent Father put so much effort into nurturing you, yet you actually kicked him when he was down!” Jingwei said, glowering.

“What should we do now?” the Flame Monarch asked worriedly.

“Elder Sister? I can only ask Elder Sister to return. Elder Sister can take revenge for Eminent Father if she returns; that’s the only way to make these bastards pay with their lives!” Jingwei said, her face dark with hatred.

“The first princess?” The Flame Monarch’s face twitched.

“That’s right.”

“The first princess, Jiang Ba? No. When freed, she was unwilling to acknowledge His Holy Eminence and even abandoned the Jiang family name. She changed her name to just Ba out of overwhelming resentment for His Holy Eminence!” the Flame Monarch said worriedly.

“All grudges are settled after death. Eminent Father has already died. No matter how great the resentment, it should have dissipated by now. Furthermore, Elder Sister treated me the best when I was young. I’ll coax her. She will return,” Jingwei said confidently.

“However, the first princess is in the nether realm. Furthermore, Lifespan Dongfang is on the fence and refuses to obey us,” the Flame Monarch said worriedly.

“I know. It is not just that. Not to mention finding my elder sister, I can’t even leave this place. Ji Dihong and Jiang Gautama will not let me leave,” Jingwei said seriously.

“Then…?”

“We call for help,” Jingwei said seriously.

“Call for help? Who in the land of the living would help us oppose the Huang Heavenly Dynasty and the Spirit Mountain Holy Land?” the Flame Monarch asked worriedly.

“The Han Imperial Dynasty’s Gu Hai!” Jingwei said seriously.

“Ah?”

“You said that Gu Hai and Old Mister Guan Qi fought on an even footing during their final battle? Doesn’t that mean Gu Hai is as capable as Old Mister Guan Qi? He is a second Old Mister Guan Qi?” Jingwei said solemnly.

“However… However, Gu Hai is only in the Middle Heavenly Palace Realm, not even the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm. His cultivation is too weak. With the Go Dao laws gone, his abilities are useless,” the Flame Monarch said worriedly.

“Cultivation? Haha! What do you think of Old Mister Guan Qi’s cultivation?” Jingwei asked with a cold smile.

“Huh?”

“Old Mister Guan Qi’s martial prowess was not comparable to Jiang Gautama’s, Ji Dihong’s, Eminent Father’s, Sect Master Heavenly Access’s, or the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s. However, he toyed with everyone in the palm of his hand. He uses his intellect, not strength. This is the same for Gu Hai. Back when he killed the Azure Emperor, was his cultivation higher than the Azure Emperor’s? Do you not recall how he cultivated? When has he ever lost to someone with a higher cultivation? He is a second Old Mister Guan Qi. So what if the Go Dao laws are gone? Old Mister Guan Qi did not have the Go Dao laws, either, yet he caused such a vast commotion in the world. Even without the Go Dao laws, he could move the battlefield to eight hundred thousand years in the past,” Jingwei said gravely.

“But—”

“No buts. I just want him to bring me away from here. He will have a way. Find him. Find the Embroidered Uniform Guards that the Han Nation planted in Divine Farmer City. Use the zither puppets to inform Borderless Heavenly Capital and directly invite Gu Hai to come and help me,” Jingwei ordered.

“But we do not have any friendship with Gu Hai.”

“We won’t use friendship. We will trade.”

“Huh? Trade?”

“Gu Hai is in the Middle Heavenly Palace Realm. Can’t you guess why he has not broken into the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm?”

“Could it be because of lifespan? Oh! I recall now. When he advanced to the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm, his mortal soul was one hundred sixty-three meters tall, reaching perfection. Could his heavenly soul have reached perfection too? No, that’s impossible! How much lifespan would he need to break through? Might he never be able to break through?” the Flame Monarch exclaimed.

“Tell him that if he can rescue me and bring me out, I can give him boundless lifespan,” Jingwei said seriously.

“This…how can this be possible?”

“Nothing is impossible. Of the five types of cultivations in the world—lifespan, blessings, divine, cultural, and spiritual—lifespan cultivation can plunder lifespan from the world and others. Lifespan cultivation came from Fuxi. Fuxi created the eight trigrams. Naturally, the eight trigrams are connected to lifespan cultivation. Eminent Father studied the eight trigrams and the sixty-four hexagrams. He had boundless lifespan stored away. What is impossible? Just tell Gu Hai exactly what I said; as long as he can rescue me and bring me out, I will give him all of Eminent Father’s stored lifespan. Even if he has not reached the consummation of the Middle Heavenly Palace Realm yet, he can use it in the future,” Jingwei said.

“Alright!” The Flame Monarch nodded.

“Uncle Flame Monarch, I’ll have to depend on you. My movements are restricted. I do not dare trust the White Emperor or the Scarlet Emperor. I ask that you help me. Once my elder sister returns, those evil bandits can forget about fleeing!” Jingwei bowed.

“Princess, there’s no need for this. I will do my best.” The Flame Monarch shook his head.

Myriad Age Daoist Sect:

After Sha obtained the Supreme Pure One Sword Dao Consolidated Record, he comprehended it after a few hours. Although he had instinctively done his best to avoid similar sword Dao all these years, this sword Dao felt like it belonged to him, integrating with him in an instant.

After the sword Dao merged with his body, Sha’s sword Dao advanced significantly.

The stronger sword Dao allowed Sha to surpass Sect Master Heavenly Access by a hair when they clashed with sword conceptions.

This infuriated Sect Master Heavenly Access into drawing his Immortal Executioner Sword.

Heavenly Access felt confident in his sword Dao. At the same time, it made him conceited. He should have the strongest sword Dao; no one else could compare. Sha’s rise inspired panic and fluster in his heart, which gave rise to thoughts of destroying Sha.

Sha’s sword conception was stronger, but his cultivation was far from comparable. Thus, he lost in an instant. It looked like he would die to the Immortal Executioner Sword.

The strong sword Dao also caused Sha to spew a mouthful of blood.

Everyone in the distance believed Sha would die.

Just then, a palm-sized jade stele fell out from Sha’s chest. This was the inheritance jade stele of the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance. Lin Waner had passed it to Sha when she asked him to rescue Gu Hai. At this moment, blood stained the jade stele.

Buzz!

Smoke came out from the jade stele.

“Humph! No one can save you now! All who oppose me will die!” A ferocious look flashed in Heavenly Access’s eyes; he seemed determined to kill Sha.

Then, that clump of smoke transformed, manifesting a white-robed figure.

At this point, the Immortal Executioner Sword had already approached with a destructive might. When Sect Master Heavenly Access saw the figure that the white smoke took, his expression changed dramatically.

The Immortal Executioner Sword immediately veered, brushing by Sha.

Boom!

A thunderous report rang out as ten-odd mountains exploded.

The shock waves had countless nearby disciples spewing blood continuously.

“What’s going on?”

“Who is that old man in front of Sha?”

“Shut up! That’s Sect Master Supreme Ascendant!”

The countless disciples in the surroundings appeared shocked.

Sect Master Heavenly Access also gazed at the white smoke in shock, as the smoke had taken the appearance of Sect Master Supreme Ascendant. Sect Master Supreme Ascendant stood in front of Sha. If Sect Master Heavenly Access swung his sword down, the smoke would disappear.

After the smoke took form, Sect Master Supreme Ascendant looked behind himself at Sha before turning to the nearby Sect Master Heavenly Access.

“Third Junior Brother, are you causing trouble again?” Sect Master Supreme Ascendant asked reproachfully.

“First…First Senior Brother?” Heavenly Access’s expression changed, and his eyes turned bloodshot as he flew over.

“I am just a remnant will separated from my true body. Back then, my true body wanted to comprehend the Supreme Ascendant Longevity Piece but worried that history would repeat itself, that you would do something crazy because of my true body. That’s why he left me behind to persuade you,” Sect Master Supreme Ascendant explained.

“Persuade me? Why?” Heavenly Access’s eyes were red.

“I don’t know what you did. Back then, Sha received my favor and was willing to help correct your errant ways. If he did something that goes against my will or the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, you can deal with him as you please. If he did not and only acted to stop you, killing him would be wronging him. Third Junior Brother, don’t kill him on my account. He only angered you to help me, right?” Sect Master Supreme Ascendant persuaded.

“Don’t kill him? Based on what? First Senior Brother, I find it unfair to you. Furthermore, what if I must kill him today?” Sect Master Heavenly Access asked with bloodshot eyes.

“If you must kill him, I will not stop you. I am just a remnant will and will vanish soon. I just don’t want innocents to die because of me. Third Junior Brother, this might be my final request. Don’t grieve for me, and don’t take revenge for me. I chose my path by myself; no one else should be blamed. Take good care of yourself. Treasure yourself!” Sect Master Supreme Ascendant smiled faintly.

Sect Master Supreme Ascendant’s remnant will scattered as he smiled faintly, disappearing slowly.

“First Senior Brother! First Senior Brother!” Heavenly Access reached out to grab. However, the smoke vanished in the blink of an eye. He could not keep Sect Master Supreme Ascendant around.

“Ah!” Heavenly Access suddenly roared in suffering. As he did so, the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s surroundings shuddered. Countless disciples covered their ears in pain.

After that, Sect Master Heavenly Access lowered his head and glared ferociously at Sha.

“Since this is First Senior Brother’s final request, I will not kill you. However, there will be no exceptions next time. If you dare cross the line again after I recapture Gu Hai, only death will await you, no matter who pleads for you. Humph!” Sect Master Heavenly Access snorted coldly as he soared into the sky.

Whoosh! Heavenly Access vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye, chasing after Gu Hai.

Sha wiped the blood off his lips as he got up from the ground. As he watched Sect Master Heavenly Access leave, he frowned slightly. “That won’t happen. Now that my sword conception has surpassed yours, my cultivation will quickly catch up. Sect Master, you won’t be able to kill me the next time.”
