Chapter 18

Talisman Technique, Martial Arts Sovereign

There were also four rooms in the courtyard where Jiang Changsheng lived, so it was not difficult for the Devil Lord and Hua Jianxin to stay there. There were often guests coming to Longqi Temple to stay for the time being, so it was not a problem. Usually, only Wanli and Mingyue would come to him, making it easy to hide them.

In any case, Daoist Master Qingxu already knew that he had subdued the Devil Lord, so it was not difficult for him to arrange his identity.

Hua Jianxin also needed to recuperate. Jiang Changsheng went into the room to get her medicine. Looking at the Demon Lord in a Daoist robe, her expression was complicated. She did not say anything and took the bottle to the next room.

The Devil Lord smiled and said, “That woman is pretty good, better than most men. The Devil Sect has been killing people all night long, but she’s the only one among the White-robed Guards who came.”

The White-robed Guards was founded in the second year after the founding of the country, and it was directly under the Emperor’s control. As for the exact number of guards, no one knew. They did intelligence, abduction, assassination, escort, and other missions. In the past dozens of years, the White Guard had captured countless experts in the pugilistic world, including the Ghost-Eyed Evil King. Therefore, their name was famous in the pugilistic world.

Great Jing white robes, protecting the country and the people!

These words caused countless hot-blooded children to devote themselves to this cause. However, the White-robed Guard’s test was extremely strict, and those who could stand out were at least first-rate experts.

Jiang Changsheng nodded slightly and then meditated in his room.

He did not hide himself, because it was impossible for the Devil Lord to secretly learn his cultivation technique and natural skills just by looking.

More than half of the Devil Sect had been lost, the Devil Lord was missing, and the remaining disciples had also fled the capital. Of course, there were also some unlucky people who had been captured by the imperial guards. The crisis in the capital had finally ended, and what was left was the plague, which would take time to solve.

In this ancient world, the best way to deal with a plague was to detain the sick. After they died, they would burn their clothes and the plague would naturally end. This was the sadness of the times.

Even though Jiang Changsheng had learned the Spring and Autumn Medical Manual, he did not have the heart to help the world. He did not want to go down the mountain.

He had wronged the Emperor. He originally thought that the plague was man-made, but the Devil Lord said that was not the case. It was only when the plague broke out that they took the opportunity to act.

That night, peace returned to the capital.

The next morning, Jiang Changsheng trained in the courtyard and led White Dragon to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon.

“In the eighteenth year of the founding of the dynasty, the Devil Sect wreaked havoc in the capital. You relied on your own strength to successfully survive the calamity and obtained a survival reward—spell, Jade Pure Meridian Cutting Needle.”

Seeing this line of words, Jiang Changsheng smiled.

When the plague was over, he should be able to obtain another reward.

He began to learn the Jade Pure Meridian Cutting Needle. This spell was not used in medicine, but as a needle to kill enemies. Using this spell, true qi would turn into a needle that would break a person’s meridians once it entered their body. It was extremely domineering.

Overall, this spell did not really increase Jiang Changsheng’s strength.

Jiang Changsheng summarized. The more dangerous a calamity was for oneself, the greater the reward. Just like when he received his cultivation technique and natural skills. He was truly powerless when he was born. At that time, he was in the most dangerous situation.

As he became stronger, the danger he could get into should also be lower, but this was also good.

If he was really immortal, then what he wanted to pursue was absolute invincibility.

As long as he was invincible, he could do whatever he wanted!

At present, he could not see through the world. It was hard to say who was the strongest in the world. According to the Devil Lord, there were many great figures in the martial arts world and many grandmasters. There were also talented youngsters. Jiang Changsheng still needed to work hard.

His pursuit of invincibility was not to be invincible in a one-on-one fight, but invincibility when facing the world. If he could destroy the entire world alone, then he would be truly invincible

The Great Jing Dynasty was not the only dynasty in the world. The world was vast and the martial arts were boundless. God knew how many experts there were!

Perhaps if he cultivated to become an immortal, he would be invincible!

As Jiang Changsheng thought, he began to cultivate the Jade Pure Meridian Cutting Needle.

At that moment, the door of the nearby house was pushed open and Hua Jianxin walked out. She had changed into a Daoist robe and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She had a beautiful face. Even though she was not devastatingly beautiful, she was still a top-notch beauty.

Her left arm was wrapped in a piece of cloth. It seemed it would be difficult for her arm to recover in a short period of time.

When she saw Jiang Changsheng, she was slightly lost in thought.

This was the first time she had seriously observed Jiang Changsheng in broad daylight.

The first time she saw Jiang Changsheng, she was stunned. However, the current Jiang Changsheng had the aura of an enlightened expert. Under the sunlight, he looked as if he would ascend and become an immortal at any time.

Hua Jianxin suddenly saw a white snake on Jiang Changsheng’s shoulder. The white snake seemed to have sensed her gaze and crawled down its body towards her.

Seeing this snake, Hua Jianxin had goosebumps. She was most afraid of snakes in her life.

“White Dragon, don’t approach her in the future.”

Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded. He felt Hua Jianxin’s fear.

When White Dragon heard that, it could only turn its head and look at Hua Jianxin from time to time, which made Hua Jiaxin feel absurd.

This snake was human?

Jiang Changsheng did not open his eyes and said, “Recover first. Once your injuries are healed, I will teach you how to become stronger.”

Hua Jianxin nodded respectfully.

The sky was blue and cloudless for tens of thousands of miles. There was a large river flowing between the mountains and a huge ship was moving forward. Dozens of wooden ships followed it, and all of them were filled with White-robed Guards and imperial guards.

Jiang Yuan, who was dressed in a dragon robe, stood at the bow. The wind blew against his white temples. A White-robed Guard leaped onto the deck and quickly came behind him. He half-knelt and handed over a roll of letters with both hands.

Jiang Yuan raised his hand and with his back facing the White-robed Guards, he sucked the letter into his palm and began to read it.

After he finished reading it, he condensed true qi in his palms and minced the letter into pieces before letting it fall into the river.

Jiang Yuan put his hands behind his back but said nothing.

The White-robed Guard waited for a while before leaving quietly.

Soon after, the Crown Prince, Jiang Qian, and the Second Prince, Jiang Ming, came and bowed behind Jiang Yuan.

“Father, I made a bet with my second brother. He said that the martial arts recruitment order you issued could attract powerful figures in the martial arts world. I bet that it would not work. At most, it would attract many top experts.”

Jiang Qian chuckled. He was in a good mood.

Jiang Yuan turned around and looked at him with a smile. “Oh? Do you think I am not worthy of the attention of the martial arts world?”

Jiang Qian shook his head and said, “Of course not. It’s just that if an existence of the martial arts world enters the court, the martial arts world will reject them. Compared to to status and salary, they care more about their status in the martial arts world.”

Jiang Ming snorted and said, “The Great Jing Dynasty is not the Chu Dynasty. We have the ambition to devour the world. This is only the beginning. When the Great Jing annexes other dynasties, the Great Jing Dynasty can also expand its territory. They should join us as soon as possible so that their status will be higher in the future.”

Jiang Qian replied, “That’s a fantasy. Taking everything into consideration, it’s very hard for anyone to dare to gamble on us.”

Seeing that the two brothers were about to start a fight again, Jiang Yuan said helplessly, “Alright, you’re giving me a headache.”

The two brothers immediately shut their mouths, not daring to say anything else.

Jiang Yuan stared at them and said, “One of you is rational and clear-headed, but underestimate the strength of a martial artist. The other is valiant, but is too arrogant. If your strengths can combine together, that would be great.”

Jiang Qian smiled and said, “Father is right. Speaking of which, Seventh Brother has brought together our strengths. Even though he is young, he has trained in the sacred land. When he returned last year, he had matured a lot.”

Jiang Ming frowned. No one knew what he was thinking.

Jiang Yuan turned his head and looked ahead. “Little Seven is good, but he is too young. It is impossible for him to have his turn on the throne.”

Jiang Qian could no longer smile. He did not understand what his father meant.

On the other hand, Jiang Ming became excited and said, “Father, since we established our own country and the martial arts world has recovered, those hidden sects have successively opened their doors to accept disciples. Next month, at Jiangnan’s Pine Lake, a supreme martial artist will appear. Father, are you willing to go and take a look?”

Jiang Qian frowned and said, “No, it’s too dangerous to gather all the experts in the martial arts world!”

Jiang Yuan stroked his beard and said with a smile, “I am the Emperor, the Great Emperor who unified the thirteen prefectures. How can I be afraid of the martial arts world? Let’s go to Pine Lake!”

When Jiang Ming heard that, he smiled even more proudly.

After two months, autumn and winter were about to arrive.

The plague in the capital had also completely disappeared.

“In the eighteenth year of the founding of the dynasty, a plague broke out in the capital. You have lived on the mountain for a long time and avoided a calamity. You have obtained a survival reward—Miscellaneous Skill, Talisman Technique.”

A line of words suddenly appeared before Jiang Changsheng’s eyes. He did not think much of it and directly began to inherit the art of talismans.

Talisman techniques could imprint spells into paper talismans as incantations. This was a pretty good spell. In the future, when he made magic talismans and handed them over to his subordinates, they could still save their life with it.

Not bad, not bad!

After Jiang Changsheng inherited the memories of the Talisman Technique, he stood up and walked out of the house to the courtyard.

The Devil Lord was training under the tree while Hua Jianxin was training her sword not far away. Their injuries were about to recover, thanks to Jiang Changsheng’s medicinal pills.

Seeing Jiang Changsheng appear, Hua Jianxin retracted her sword and quickly walked to him before bowing.

The Devil Lord also opened his eyes and rushed over to salute.

His eyes were filled with anticipation. Even though he had not learned much after spending two months with him, he could sense that Jiang Changsheng was indeed extraordinary. Even the snake he raised was very human-like.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Since your injuries have healed, from today onwards, I will teach each of you a unique skill.”

Hearing this, the two of them thanked him in pleasant surprise.

Jiang Changsheng decided to impart the Overlord Body of Xuan Nei to the Devil Lord and the Jade Pure Meridian Cutting Needle to Hua Jianxin. As for the immortal cultivation technique, it was temporarily impossible for him to pass it over for the time being.

He did not want to see the act of starving the master to death.

Seven days later, Jiang Changsheng was done imparting. The rest required them to work hard on their own, as he still had to spend his time on his own cultivation.

Cultivating forces was only the second goal. The first goal must be one’s own cultivation.

The fifth level of the Dao Technique was imperative and could not be delayed!

He could easily defeat a Heaven Arrival realm expert on the fourth level, but he would not slack off.

Another half a month passed.

When Chen Li came to visit, Jiang Changsheng told the Devil Lord to hide in his room and not show his face.

Jiang Changsheng, Hua Jianxin, and Chen Li gathered in the room.

Chen Li’s expression was weak. When he saw that Hua Jianxin had recovered, he could not help but smile, but it was a forced smile.

“His Majesty is about to return to the capital. Even though His Majesty has been acting ridiculously in recent years, the might of a true dragon still exists. Other than investigating the people’s feelings and pursuing immortality, His Majesty has actually roped in a new supreme expert of the martial arts world. The supreme expert of the martial arts world will follow His Majesty back to the capital, so we don’t have to worry about the attack of the Devil Sect in the future.”

Speaking of the supreme expert of the martial arts world, Chen Li was very excited. The strength of the Devil Sect had deeply stimulated him. If it were not for the protection of the Chen family, he would have died long ago.

Jiang Changsheng asked curiously, “The supreme expert of the martial arts world? Is he very strong? How many moves can the Devil Lord withstand against him?”

“How many moves? The Martial Arts Grandmaster is naturally stronger than the Devil Lord, but speaking of how many moves is too humiliating for the Devil Lord.”

Chen Li said helplessly as he looked at Hua Jianxin.

Hua Jianxin nodded and said, “The Devil Lord is indeed powerful. Daoist Master Changsheng never leaves the mountain, so it’s normal that he doesn’t know.”
