Capital City.
Whenever there is a change of dynasties, there will always be people who rise to the top overnight, and there will also be noble families who are reduced to prisoners in an instant. Life is full of unpredictable ups and downs, just like this.
However, as long as the common people do not get involved in the struggle, their lives will remain unchanged once the dynasty is settled.
For example, Old Zhang from the north of the city, even if Dayan has become Great Ming, he still sells his steamed buns in the north of the city as before, except that due to the chaos, his property has shrunk a lot.
In his spare time selling steamed buns, he occasionally looks across the street, where Peaceful Mind Studio has been replaced by another business.
During the night of chaos in the capital city, Liang Sheng disappeared after the establishment of the new dynasty. Old Zhang did not know whether Liang Sheng had suffered from military disasters or not.
As for this, Old Zhang only hoped that Liang Sheng was safe and sound, and that he had left the Capital City in a hurry to avoid disaster.
Three hundred miles outside the Capital City.
Dangyang Mountain.
On the night of Dayan’s upheaval, Liang Sheng forcefully killed two innate grandmasters and left the capital with the Nine Provinces Tripod that very night.
The tripod of the Nine Provinces looked somewhat black, engraved with flowers, birds, insects, and fish. At first glance, it did not seem to have anything special about it, but at this moment, Liang Sheng’s heart was surging with excitement.
180-Year Lifespan!
An innate grandmaster’s lifespan was capped at this amount, but Liang Sheng lost 180 years of his lifespan just by stealing the Nine Provinces Tripod.
Name: Liang Sheng
Age: 112
Talent: Innocent Foolishness (Top-Grade)
Techniques: Golden Dragon Technique (11th level), Twenty Life-Nurturing Techniques (14th level) Unmoving Ming King Seal (5th level)
Realm: Innate
Lifespan: 4146
This is the price Liang Sheng paid for seizing the Nine Provinces Tripod at the most appropriate moment. If it weren’t for Ye Kai removing the last trace of the old dynasty’s king’s aura and the new dynasty’s dragon aura not yet formed, the backlash Liang Sheng would suffer would be even more severe.
Even so, after all, the Nine Provinces Tripod was once a sacred treasure of the Dayan Kingdom. Liang Sheng paid a heavy price of 180 years of his lifespan for his actions.
But it was all worth it. After exchanging his lifespan, the Nine Provinces Tripod was no longer connected to the Dayan Kingdom and the Nine Provinces.
It is now just a cauldron containing the secrets of cultivation. After two years of waiting after exploring Mount Kunwu, Liang Sheng finally got the result he wanted.
If it weren’t for the change of dynasties or the fact that the person stealing the tripod was Liang Sheng, perhaps no one could have done this, because, in the mortal world, who could have a lifespan as long as Liang Sheng’s?
Liang Sheng usually keeps his emotions in check, but at this moment, he is full of excitement. After all, he has taken another step closer to the path of cultivating immortality. How can he not be happy?
He recalls the murals in Mount Kunwu and confirms that there are no omissions. Without any hesitation, he places his hands on the Nine Provinces Tripod, and his innate true energy, which is almost condensed into a liquid form, follows the patterns on the tripod.
Liang Sheng sits and refines the tripod for an entire night. When the sun rises and the morning sun shines on him, the golden light spreads, staining Dangyang Mountain red.
At this moment, Liang Sheng opens his eyes, exhales gently, and sighs in his heart that the Nine Provinces Tripod, as a national treasure, is truly extraordinary. To fully refine the tripod, he will need to spend some time.
Liang Sheng has been in this world for nearly a hundred years and has long learned to endure loneliness. If everything goes as smoothly as the murals in Mount Kunwu say, refining the Nine Provinces Tripod will be just a matter of time, and he can wait patiently.
Thinking of this, Liang Sheng can’t help but feel fortunate. He has prepared himself in advance and placed living supplies on Dangyang Mountain, allowing him to stay on the mountain for a while.
In fact, not only Dangyang Mountain, but also several safe houses prepared by Liang Sheng in the suburbs of the Capital City, for who would put all their eggs in one basket?
Since then, Liang Sheng’s life has been very regular. He wakes up early to refine the Nine Provinces Tripod, then cultivates to recover his internal energy before starting to refine the Nine Provinces Tripod again. During his spare time, he also plays with the mysterious little sword.
Although it’s only a half-artifact and doesn’t need refinement, the sword is quite useless. After all, Liang Sheng’s strength is already no less than the sword, and using it still consumes his lifespan. So why bother?
Since then, life has continued in a cycle. Liang Sheng has stayed on Dangyang Mountain for half a year, unaware that it has already become winter. Wearing only a single layer of clothes on the mountain, Liang Sheng doesn’t feel the cold at all.
Today, Liang Sheng’s heart is slightly excited. His palms repeatedly strike the Nine Provinces Tripod, and the sound of metal ringing is endless. Indeed, the tripod is quite resistant.
However, even with such a sturdy Tripod, it is likely to be completely refined under Liang Sheng’s uninterrupted attacks today. At that time, the last resort of the Ye Family and the secret of cultivation will appear before his eyes.
As time goes by, the refining process reaches its final stage, and even Liang Sheng has a slight sweat on his forehead.
He stares intently at the Nine Provinces Tripod, his hands striking faster and faster. What seems like a terrifying force is, in fact, very light and entirely focused on the tripod’s body.
Boom!
Suddenly, a crisp sound, and the next moment, Liang Sheng’s face finally shows an expression, the corners of his mouth involuntarily rising.
Numerous cracks appear on the Nine Provinces Tripod, and then the tripod collapses with a loud bang, leaving only a black iron command.
The Black Iron Command is covered with lines, and next to it are the archaic characters for “Hua Tian.” Liang Sheng can’t help but feel overjoyed upon seeing this.
The murals in Mount Kunwu did not lie. This is the symbol of the Hua Tian Sect, the hidden power behind the Ye Family in the cultivation world.
The mortal world is just a tiny speck to the cultivation world. They are like numerous stars surrounding the cultivation world, providing offerings to the cultivation world..
