Chapter 27 to 28: Qi Yun Seal and Impression
nyone sensed this power, their faces turned pale with alarm.“Half-step God King!”Ji Ying spat out a word with great difficulty from her mouth.Such powerful individuals are considered mid-to-high level..."Peak Master!"
Within the Qiong Peak, Shen Changqing had just finished his cultivation and planned to take a temporary rest when he saw Cui Fu waiting outside the hall.
"What's the matter"
"There's news coming in that the Heavenly Divine King of Jiushan Sect has fallen, and fragments of the Divine Kingdom have scattered everywhere. Many powerful figures are heading to the vicinity of Jiushan Sect, hoping to obtain some fragments of the Divine Kingdom. I wonder, Headmaster, if you have any plans to go"
Cui Fu respectfully replied.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Wherever a God King falls, many strong individuals will flock to the scene.
That's all there is to it.
The fragments of the divine kingdom are tempting.
Especially those at the level of gods, are extremely eager for fragments of the divine kingdom.
In his view.
If the head of our own sect were to go, there would likely be a chance to obtain some divine country fragments. Even if it wasn't much, it wouldn't be a loss in the end.
> “Another God King has fallen”
Please provide the content you would like me to translate. I'm ready!
Shen Changqing's face was filled with astonishment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In the current era of the Eternal Continent, the God King is considered the most powerful being in the open. Although there are beings even stronger than the God King, they have long since disappeared from the world.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
That is why.
Beings of the God King level, almost never fall.
Unless it is like the former Sun and Moon God King, entering the Death Forbidden Zone during the Tide of Death, there is a possibility of falling.
Otherwise.
By the power of the gods king.
Unless during a tidal wave of death, venturing into the Death Zone normally wouldn't pose much danger.
Although this time it wasn't the Sun Moon God King who fell, but only a Heaven and Earth God King, belonging to a powerful being who had just ascended to the level of God King, even so, he was still considered an existence above the divine realm.
However.
Shen Changqing wasn't very interested in the fragments of the Divine Kingdom from the Heavenly God King.
I still have two pieces of the Yiyuan Riyue Divine Nation fragments unused. Getting another Heavenly God Nation fragment won't be very helpful.
And.
Now that the news has reached Cui Fu's hands, it's likely that other powerful individuals have already learned of it.
If you were truly to get there, don't even talk about getting a share. Even the shadow of a fragment of the Divine Kingdom would be out of sight.
That's all.
Then he thought of something else.
"If I recall correctly, the Nine Mountains Sect is behind the Nine Mountains Clan. It's not a clan and there are no powerful figures at the God King level stationed there. Why would a Heaven-Earth God King fall there"
It is rumored that a Heavenly King descended upon the Jiushan Sect. The Sect Master of Jiushan Sect and several divine realm experts sacrificed themselves to have the sect's founding artifact, the Divine Mountain, forcibly promoted to the seventh rank. By utilizing the power of the artifact's tribulation from heaven, they managed to slay the Heavenly King.
As for the celestial soldier, it was not destroyed during the tribulation. Instead, it devoured the divine blood of the God King and successfully survived the ordeal.
Cui Fu spoke in a low voice.
Upon hearing this.
It was then that Shen Changqing understood why the Nine Mountains Sect would have a Heavenly God King fall.
If five-rank Dao Soldiers are comparable to mid-stage divine realm powerhouses, then six-rank Dao Soldiers are equivalent to complete divine realm existences. As for seven-rank Dao Soldiers, they have already reached the level of a Divine King.
This is the translation of your request:
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
However.
The Dao soldiers referred to here are genuine offensive Dao soldiers, not the ordinary auxiliary type.
Of course.
>
Even as auxiliary troops, their value is not low.
Just like the Empty Space Shuttle that Zhong Shan Qiu Yuan previously possessed, it was an extremely valuable item even just sitting there.
It's naturally impossible to obtain something through ordinary passing down.
According to my memory, the Sky Piercer was a relic left behind by the opponent's deceased father.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Also fortunate was that the pursuing void shuttle was only a fifth-grade Dao soldier, and still a supporting one. If it were an attacking Dao soldier, even if it was a direct descendant of the Candlelight Sect, it might not have been able to keep him.
After all—
The Dao soldiers move back, every breakthrough in rank is a terrifying metamorphosis.
Take the five-rank Dao soldiers and seven-rank Dao soldiers as an example. On the surface, they only differ by two ranks. In reality, the gap is huge. Even ten five-rank Dao soldiers cannot be compared to a single seven-rank Dao soldier.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“The Nine Mountains Sect relies on the Bei Yue clan behind it. Now that a God King is targeting the Nine Mountains Sect, there must be something else going on here—”
Shen Changqing's eyes flickered.
Please provide the text you'd like me to translate. I missed that part in your original request!
Upon hearing this.
Cui Fu shook his head. "Currently, there's too much information, and I haven't been able to get any yet. For now, all I know is that all the Divine Realm experts from Jiushan Sect have perished, and the Heavenly God King who made the move also fell."
However, with the promotion of that Dao Soldier, the strength of Jiushan Sect did not diminish but rather increased.
“Possessing a seventh-rank Dao weapon, his strength has naturally increased instead of decreased!”
Shen Changqing scoffed.
>
That was equivalent to a living god-king, certainly not an ordinary existence.
Using all the divine realm lives to exchange for a god king level powerhouse sitting in command, when you think about it seriously, it's actually not a loss at all.
That's all.
The growth of a dao soldier is inferior to that of a cultivator. It's very difficult for a seventh-rank dao soldier to grow to an eighth rank, let alone higher.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
By comparison.
Advancement for cultivators of the same level is actually easier.
I casually asked about the situation, and he didn't pay much attention to it.
The affairs of the Jiushan Sect don't concern me much.
>
It wouldn't matter if the entire Nine Mountains Sect divine realm perished, or even if the Northern Yue Clan behind them was wiped out. It would have no impact on him whatsoever.
What truly piqued Shen Changqing's curiosity was the newly acquired seventh-rank Dao weapon from Jiushan Sect.
If one were to obtain it, the problems posed by the demonic race would be negligible.
Though that demon god also possesses a seventh-rank artifact, it is not an offensive weapon. Compared to a true offensive artifact, it pales in comparison.
But he was just thinking about it.
It is impossible to recover a seventh-rank Dao weapon without absolute strength.
Having put aside the matters of Jiushan Sect, Shen Changqing didn't think about them anymore.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Three days later.
He came back to the Qifeng clan.
Now.
The Qīngfēng clan originally belonged to two other hereditary divinities, which have since been completely destroyed. Consequently, most of the statues have been replaced with those of Zhōngshān Chòu.
The remaining parts of the statue depict Qingyang and two other deputy clan chiefs.
It is obvious.
20% belief.
Qingyang didn't have exclusive possession, but only occupied 10%, leaving the remaining 10% of faith to be shared equally by the two deputy clan chiefs.
Thus, it is.
Having gained a certain belief, though it doesn't have the same efficacy as having two-tenths of a belief, there is still hope for ascension to the Divine Realm.
When Shen Changqing saw the other party, he could clearly feel that there was a faint power of faith surrounding the patriarch of the Qingfeng clan.
"It seems that Chief Qingyang will be able to ignite the divine fire soon and officially ascend to the Divine Realm!"
"It is all thanks to your grace that I have been able to ascend to the divine realm. Otherwise, I would never have had such an opportunity!"
Qingyang bowed his head respectfully, his face showing deference.
He is also in high spirits now.
After being stuck at the Saint rank for so long, I can finally obtain the power of faith. Although the amount of faith I receive isn't much, with this faith, I will be able to ascend to the divine realm within the next few decades.
And.
Even after decades of estimates, the most conservative approach still prevails.
If you're aggressive, there's a possibility of promotion within ten years.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
As for Qinggang and Qingying, they received slightly less faith. However, there is still a possibility of them being promoted within the next hundred years.
By that time.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Though the Qingfeng clan is only considered to be at the bottom of the ranks among powerful clans, with just three Gods in residence, it's much stronger than before.
How is everything progressing
Shen Changqing asked faintly.
Qiyáng's heart was clear, and he replied in a low voice: "Reporting to Your Excellency, everything has been arranged properly. Just wait for Your Excellency to arrive, and my Qīngfēng clan will be able to proclaim it to the world."
"Great!"
The former main city of the Qingyang tribe is now in the center of the entire Qifeng clan's imperial city. In just a few days, a high platform has been built.
The platform was ninety-nine feet and nine inches high.
Below the high platform.
All the powerful individuals from the Green Bee Clan have gathered there.
Suddenly.
Please note that the original content was empty. The translation reflects this.
The void trembles.
The figures of Qingyang and Shen Changqing appeared there directly.
In an instant.
All the strong ones of the Qīngfēng clan were bowing in respect.
"I have seen your Majesty, I have seen our Emperor!"
"No need for formalities!"
Qingyang waved his hand, his majestic voice echoing throughout the imperial city.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Next.
>
And so he continued to speak aloud.
"For countless generations, my Green Bee Clan has been divided. Today, thanks to your leadership, we are finally united. You, revered one, are a direct descendant of the Candle Sect, blessed with exceptional talent. In time, you may even become a Divine King. Therefore, I have decided that the Green Bee Clan will pledge its loyalty to you. From this day forward, our fortunes shall be intertwined - when one prospers, we both prosper; when one suffers, we both suffer!"
And then he was finished speaking.
Qingyang took two steps forward, then turned to face Shen Changqing and bowed deeply.
And then.
All the other members of the Green Hornet's clan followed suit and bowed deeply.
In an instant.
The vast heavens roared, and the immense aura gathered completely, transforming into a seal that fell.
"This is the token of our Qingfeng clan's good fortune. Please accept it, honored guest!"
This is a request to translate text within specific HTML tags. Please provide the text you'd like me to translate, and I'll do my best! For example: `
This is some text I want translated.
` Let me know what you need help with!
Qingyang's expression was solemn.
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing's gaze fell on the seal in front of him. He had a sudden realization. His divine sense landed on the seal, and soon left a unique mark belonging to him there.
Then, with a thought, the seal fell into his sea of consciousness.
Near the divine fire.
The air-transport seal is quietly stored.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
The qi of the Green Hornet Clan surged in and out, making the sea of consciousness more solid. At the same time, the divine fire seemed to burn even brighter.
At that moment.
He had a feeling.
The vast Qingfeng clan is now entirely under their control.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Once the seal in one's mind is destroyed, the fortune of the Qingfeng Clan will vanish instantly.
For any race.
The understanding of one's Qi is particularly important.
Once the auspicious Qi dissipates, a catastrophic calamity will inevitably descend from the heavens, reducing a vast race to ashes.
>
After understanding the role of Qi Yun Yin Xi, Shen Changqing showed a faint smile on his face: "As long as I live for a day, I will surely ensure the prosperity and immortality of the Qingfeng Clan!"
"Greetings, esteemed one!"
The spirits of the praying mantis clan spoke in unison, their voices shaking heaven and earth.
Inside the Candle Sect.
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan sat cross-legged on the throne, his figure wavering slightly. The moment his eyes turned towards the sky, it was as if he could see the Qi of Zhu Chong emitting joyous sounds.
Then, he quietly calculated for a moment, and subsequently a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Not bad!"
Upon hearing this.
Below, an elder asked: "I dare to ask the Sect Master, what exactly happened"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Just now, my Qizhong's aura surged. I calculated it and found that it was due to the allegiance of the Qingfeng clan.
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan said.
Good fortune.
Even for a God King, it is an incredibly mysterious thing.
Any race or even a sect possesses powerful Qi.
Besides.
This is a simple example of how to use HTML tags in text. The `
` tag creates a paragraph, and the `
` tag closes it.
The growth of qi fortune is also related to the subsequent growth of sects and races.
Like Shen Changqing now borrowing the origin of Zhong Shan Chou, his Qi Yun is connected to Zhu Zong. Now that he has recovered the Qingfeng clan and obtained the Qi Yun seal of the Qingfeng clan, then Zhu Zong, in some aspects, is equivalent to annexing the Qi Yun of the Qingfeng clan.
In this way, the Zhú Zong’s aura naturally increased.
But.
It is not an easy task to make a clan surrender their Qi Yun Seal.
Although the Zhúzong has many subordinate races, there are few that truly willingly pledge their allegiance to it.
As for this.
Even the Candle Sect shouldn't force him.
After all, as this involves matters of spiritual energy, forcefully compelling other races to pledge their loyalty would only harm the reputation of the Candle Sect if it were to spread.
That way, no more small tribes will flock to us afterwards.
There were no small tribes who sought refuge.
Please note that the input "
" is already in English. If you'd like me to translate something else, please provide it within the tags.
Naturally, the amount of faith that Zhu Zong could receive decreased.
As time goes by.
It is like excavating the foundation of the ancestral temple.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
That's exactly why.
Right now, seeing the rise of Zhu Chong's energy, Zhong Shan Dong Xuan would feel happy about it.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That's all.
It's just that the qi運 is too difficult to improve.
Although the Qingfeng clan is weak in strength, their luck is not low. Now that my Zhuzong has integrated the Qingfeng clan's luck, we are one step closer to breaking through the shackles of clan luck!
He was in high spirits.
The stronger the Qi of the Candle Sect, the stronger its foundation.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
That's all I have to say on that.
tags. The HTML tags themselves were not translated.
Zhong Shan Xia spoke in a low voice: "Zhong Shan Chou made the Qing Feng clan pledge allegiance, causing the Qi of the Zhu Chong sect to rise. This is a good thing. I think the sect should reward him."
This way, it would also allow other disciples to follow suit. Over time, who knows, perhaps my Zhu Chong sect could experience a surge in fortune.
"Elder Xia is right."
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan nodded slightly.
His gaze swept over all the elders one by one.
"Those who make mistakes must be punished, and those who accomplish great feats must be rewarded. Zhong Shan's recovery of the Qingfeng clan is a boon to both the Qi of our Zhú Sect and our reputation. Considering he now possesses the faith of an entire clan, there will undoubtedly be issues with his subsequent refinement."
Therefore, the sect decided to bestow upon him a piece of pure stone.
...and then he spoke.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Most of the elders turned pale.
To the pure stone!
That was a priceless treasure that could refine impurities in faith and increase the speed of faith absorption.
Such a precious treasure.
It is something that any divine realm needs.
Even within the Zhuzong, the number of pure spirit stones possessed is relatively small. After all, such treasures are only produced in the Death Forbidden Zone, and the Death Forbidden Zone comes with various risks. To delve deep into it, one must be prepared to pay a certain price.
Even the God-King is bleeding.
>
For other gods' realms, the danger of the Death Zone is self-evident.
However.
Even so, no one spoke up in opposition.
It was obvious to everyone that Zhong Shandonghuan was in a good mood today. The reward from Zhì Jìngshí was a sure thing.
Who will speak up
As long as it doesn't offend the other person.
If so, why would they bother doing something so pointless and tiring
After the matter of Zijing Stone was settled, Zhong Shan Dongxuan's expression became solemn.
News about the Nine Mountains Sect has surely reached you all. The Divine King who attacked the Nine Mountains Sect is a newly ascended Divine King from the Baiyu Clan. Now, after the battle at the Nine Mountains Sect, all Divine Realm cultivators have perished. Even the Heaven and Earth Divine King died during a heavenly tribulation.
What are your thoughts on this matter
...and then he spoke.
Zhong Shan Ren said calmly, "Jiushan Sect's foundation is not weak. Although it doesn't belong to the aristocratic clans, it possesses a top-grade sixth-rank Dao weapon guarding it, and with a Perfect Realm expert in charge, there are few opponents for them among the Divine Realm."
Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags:
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
The only pity is that Jiushan Sect has completely pledged allegiance to the Bei Yue clan, failing to utilize its celestial energy against its enemies. Otherwise, a newly ascended Heavenly God King wouldn't necessarily have been able to force Jiushan Sect to this point.
He hesitated for a moment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He continued to speak.
Although all the divine realms of Jiushan Sect have perished now, they possess a seventh-rank Dao artifact that sits in their place. It is effectively equivalent to a living God King, its power even increasing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However, this attack was not limited to Jiushan Sect, other sects were also targeted.
These attacked sects all shared one striking characteristic: they were vassals of the Beiyue clan.
>
In my opinion, there seems to be another force targeting the Bei Yue clan!
>
Let him finish speaking.
Another elder spoke up: "The Bei Yue clan has a rich history, but their influence has declined over the past ten thousand years. Nevertheless, they are an established clan, and their willingness to confront such a powerful force is rather intriguing."
Luckily, the Bei Yue clan doesn't have much to do with my Zhong Shan clan. As long as they don't interfere on their own accord, I think they won't be affected.
This involves a powerful clan with a deep foundation. We cannot afford to be careless in any way.
Watching the discussion of the elders below, Zhong Shandonghuan remained silent.
After they had finished speaking, he opened his mouth again.
"What you said is right. The Bei Yue clan has declined in strength over the millennia. Furthermore, more than a year ago, the Divine King Ren Huai fell in the Forbidden Zone of Death, causing the Bei Yue clan to lose an old-school Sun and Moon God King. Their strength has decreased significantly."
Now that the Bei Yue clan and its vassal families are under attack, other clans see an opportunity to strike while they are vulnerable, aiming to wipe them out completely and then divide up their possessions.
Although the ancient continent of Ganzhi appears calm, there are already undercurrents swirling beneath the surface. The incident with the Beiyue clan was just a prelude; greater upheavals are sure to follow.
If one wishes to preserve oneself amidst this turmoil, one must possess absolute power.
Upon hearing this.
Zhong Shanren's eyes flashed.
Here is the translation:
"What the sect leader means is, we should also take this opportunity to get a share of the pie"
As the other party said, the Bei Yue clan has a strong foundation. If they can get a share of the pie, it would be a good thing for the Zhong Shan clan.
Hearing this, the other elders were also somewhat moved.
They are quite strong.
If one were to really make a move, there might be an opportunity to get a share of the pie.
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan shook his head: "No, this battle the Zhong Shan clan is not going to fight against the Bei Yue clan, but to help the Bei Yue clan and help them through this crisis."
As his words fell.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Many elders turned pale.
"Master, the Bei Yue clan is now surrounded on all sides. If our Zhong Shan clan were to lend a hand, we would surely invite disaster upon ourselves."
The Seventh Elder is right, our Zhongshan clan could completely divide the Bei Yue clan. Why would we go against that
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
"I believe this is too risky—"
In their view, the Zhongshan clan should not have helped the Beiyue clan at all.
It is obvious.
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The power of the Bei Yue clan is not just that of a simple clan.
At this time.
The Zhōngshān clan stood on the side of the Běiyue clan, and the risks involved were self-evident.
Zhōng Shān Dōng Xuán Píng calmly stated, "Going against the current, if you don't advance, you retreat. Five hundred years ago, Zhōng Shān Báiyüe met his demise, already indicating that our Zhōng Shān clan is not as peaceful as it appears on the surface."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Back then, the one who stopped Zhōng Shān Bái Yuè from breaking through wasn't just a single clan.
>
The Zhongshan clan is feared by certain factions. Whenever there's a chance, they will treat us like the Beiyue clan.
At that time, what would become of my Zhongshan clan
“So—”
"The Zhongshan clan actually has no other choice. We must unite with other clans to have a chance of breaking the current stalemate, and the Bei Yue clan is an ideal choice."
The Beiyue clan is currently surrounded on all sides. They have formed an alliance with the Zhongshan clan, and in the future they will be able to use their strength.
However.
This also has a premise.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
That is how the Beiyue clan managed to overcome this crisis.
Otherwise.
The Zhōngshān clan doesn't need to talk about borrowing the other side's strength; they can barely avoid being dragged down by the Běiyué clan. That's already considered good enough.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Therefore, there is a significant undercurrent to this alliance.
But in Zhong Shan Dong Xuan's view, any choice carries risks, and this is the only hope for the Zhong Shan clan to break the deadlock.
Therefore.
As for the request of the Beiyue clan, he did not directly refuse.
Silence fell in the hall for a long while.
Zong Shan Xia Ping said calmly, "What the Sect Master said is also true. The fall of Zhongshan Bai Yue shows that other clans are afraid of our Zhongshan clan and don't want another Divine King to appear among us."
Now that we have united with the Beiyue clan, there is a chance to break through this impasse.
>
Otherwise, a scene five hundred years ago will surely be reenacted in the future.
"Since the Sect Master has already made a decision, this old man has no objections."
After the summer tales of Zhongshan ended, Zhongshan Ren looked at the figure on the throne and shook his head slightly.
Five hundred years ago, the matter of Zhongshan's defeat on Yue Mountain was no secret among these elders.
The other party has fallen.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
There are many reasons involved.
But one thing cannot be denied is that the Zhongshan clan is now in crisis, with many forces secretly watching them, preventing any new divine kings from emerging.
If they can't find a way to break the deadlock, they are very likely to meet the same fate as the Beiyue clan.
Now.
If cooperation with the Beiyue clan were to take place, there would be great risks involved. However, it would also present an opportunity for the Zhongshan clan.
The essence of it.
Zhong Shanren's heart also understood.
When Zhōng Shān Dōng Xuán spoke, Zhōng Shān Rèn and Zhōng Shān Xià readily agreed. The remaining elders, even if some privately disagreed, remained silent.
That's it.
So, the alliance is settled.ities, it also harbors many dangers. Before you reach the middle ranks of the shrine's hierarchy, there's no need to rush there.The Venerable Qixing spoke.>Shen Changqing nodded: "Thank you, Master,...
