Cultivation Helped by Ancestors

Chapter 654: Chapter 473: The More the Righteous, the Greater the Aid (4,000 Words)

With the opportunity at hand, how could anyone tolerate others disrupting it?

If an Innate Emperor were to grow and then achieve the Saint King Dao Fruit,

the Tongshan Dao Lineage’s influence in the Celestial Court would significantly increase.

That is more important than anything else.

It’s not just about controlling the East Suspended Divine Continent; even the entire heritage of the Tongshan Dao Lineage in this realm would be worth offering, and the Tongshan Immortals in the Celestial Realm would be willing.

Ji Ning sighed softly and said,

"The body of an Innate Emperor is indeed naturally powerful, and more importantly, he has transformed from a human. Even the Ancient Saints hiding away wouldn’t trouble him for this, so he truly has the potential to achieve great deeds!"

He personally witnessed Zhang Jian suppress Madam Yun’s Celestial Immortal, so he was well aware that the rumors outside might not be false.

"Great Elder, what should we do now?"

Ji Canglan and Ji Ning both directed their gazes towards Ji Tianyun.

There was a hint of peculiarity in Ji Canglan’s eyes.

The Ji Family is now at a critical turning point. The consequences of a misstep in decision-making could be fatal, potentially leading the Ji Family from prosperity to decline, or ensuring its steadfast position in the coming era.

Ji Tianyun’s eyes wavered; even someone as formidable as him couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

In fact, when choosing to align with the Zhang Family of the East Continent through marriage, a part of his pride had already begun to waver.

The recent upheavals in the Barbaric Region’s Three Saints Palace, and the attitude of the Second Generation Ancestor Masters from the Tongshan Dao Lineage, became the last straw, breaking his persistence.

"Canglan, you make the decision!"

He gently flicked his sleeve and turned to leave.

Watching this scene, Ji Canglan’s eyes revealed a hint of relief, along with a touch of peculiarity.

It’s truly rare in millions of years to see someone as proud and obstinate as Ji Tianyun concede.

Of course, it could also be that the Saint King Dao Fruit’s allure was too ’tempting,’ causing this Great Elder to forsake his inner convictions.

Ji Canglan then smiled at Ji Ning.

"Second Elder, since it’s like this, when Xueqiong marries, the dowry from our Ji Family should be even more substantial to express our respect for Xueqiong and the marriage alliance!"

Ji Ning nodded slightly, a hint of joy in his eyes.

He could finally appreciate the feeling of having an Innate Emperor on his side.

This feeling was entirely different from standing opposite an Innate Emperor.

...

In Haojing City, when the Celestial Will Sect’s group entered the city, they also received news about the Celestial Will Sect through special channels.

Everyone was amazed by the changes.

Nothing is stranger than the vicissitudes of life.

In the elegant room of an inn, many disciples of the Celestial Will Sect directed their gaze towards the three leading women.

Ji Zi Yao, Yun Jiang, and Ji Xueqiong, who always had her face covered with white gauze.

Regardless, the Zhang Family of the East Continent, with the full support of the Tongshan Dao Lineage, uniting the Divine Land, was a massive achievement.

And marrying into the Great Xia Dynasty, Ji Xueqiong, and Yun Jiang wasn’t shamed at all.

After all, the opposite party is an Emperor poised to unite the Divine Land.

Countless female cultivators yearned to be embraced but were unable to gain what they sought.

Yun Jiang sat in place, her expression unchanged. Yet beside her, Ji Zi Yao noticed Yun Jiang’s hand gripping the chair arm under her wide sleeves, her eyes slightly wavering.

Ji Xueqiong’s gaze fluctuated, with her eyes barely changing, and at this moment she dismissed the idea of close-range Qi observation!

"Master, since this Great Xia Emperor could suppress the Zhu Yan Demon Monarch, there’s probably a risk of our methods being detected by him. A misstep might cause a misunderstanding!"

Deep in her Primordial Spirit, a grand Dao Map circulated, akin to countless black energies of the world gathering, containing boundless Divine Power.

At her remark, a cold voice answered.

"As you wish!"

Even so, Ji Xueqiong decided she needed to meet this legendary Great Xia Emperor.

She would go to meet him under the guise of a Celestial Will Sect envoy.

At this time, many strong figures of the Ji family and Celestial Will Sect had observed the development model of this fertile land in the East Continent and planned to lead a portion of the sect’s disciples to try establishing businesses and branch offices in the East Continent.

Ji Xueqiong wanted to meet this Great Xia Emperor in person.

...

In Haojing City, within the Imperial Palace, a new palace was recently completed.

It’s called Wusi Hall.

Its name has an inherent Zen essence.

Within Wusi Hall lies a new cultivation secret realm.

This secret realm is centered around the Bodhi Treasure Tree.

Beneath the Bodhi Treasure Tree, Zhang Jian exuded grand halos of light, which were the brilliance of thought and the radiance of wisdom. These fantastic phenomena are similar to the various signs formed by Buddhist Dao cultivators upon realizing certain realms.

Zhang Jian’s current state closely resembled this.

His comprehension was naturally formidable.

Over the years, he had insight into countless classics of Ancient Saints, including various runes from Ancient Gods and Demons, and even the Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman, alongside ancient texts. His eyes beamed with a glow akin to that found in the eyes of those supreme powers who have attained the Dao.

As if he understood the ultimate truth of the world.

His cultivation had reached a realm where one understands one technique to understand all techniques.

In truth, Zhang Jian was not far from this realm.

His Innate Divine Body had early on possessed a portion of Ancestral Qi Origin.

Possessing Dao Qi and Ancestral Qi—such root sources of the Great Dao—are characteristics only a few Dao Fruit Great Powers own.

At this moment, he was comprehending the "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal" brought back from the Tongshan Dao Lineage, and more than a dozen powerful Divine Dao Techniques and four Immortal Dao Techniques.

Time was precious to him.

The "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal" Earth Chapter was vast and profound, containing various Divine Dao mysteries, providing Zhang Jian with a tremendous supplement.

After deep contemplation of the "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal," Zhang Jian found it incredibly rewarding.

This cultivation technique was inherently prepared for deities, elaborating on various Great Dao concepts and offering an exceptional comprehension of the Divine Dao from an exceedingly high vantage point.

The genius of it lay in its progressive nature, constantly evolving rather than rigid.

It seemed to have been refined by many divinities within the Tongshan Dao Lineage, resembling a perfected "Divine Dao Treasure Manual!"

Zhang Jian felt that the offering from the Zhu Yan Demon Monarch was worthwhile!

After thoroughly reading the "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal," Zhang Jian clearly sensed changes in his understanding and application of the Innate Divine Realm.

"The Divine Dao, like the Immortal Dao, is often advancing with the times, not stagnant!"

Zhang Jian pondered inwardly.

He only absorbed the concepts of divine cultivation from the "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal," learning about the orthodox Divine Dao cultivation pathway, without attempting to practice any Dharma Gate within, such as forming a Divine Body or cultivating into a Star Monarch or Celestial God’s body.

Practicing some of the foundational techniques from all stages was more than enough.

After internalizing the essence of the "Nine Heavens Divine Palace Golden Seal," Zhang Jian focused on various Divine Dao Techniques, beginning with practicing the Tier Four Divine Technique "Earth Decree!"

Mastering the Earth is the fundamental domain of the Sheji Emperor.

The Tier Four Divine Technique "Royal Path Subjugation" was also on Zhang Jian’s cultivation agenda. Even if he couldn’t cultivate them to the fourth tier, just reaching the second or third tiers would significantly enhance his strength.

Additionally, he also focused on the Tier Three Immortal Techniques "Nine Nether Life and Death Golden Seal," "Wood Virtue Creation Scripture," and "Eight Extremes Space-Time!"

These three Immortal Techniques could effectively compensate for the Map of Mountains and Rivers’ shortcomings in the areas of life and death, and creation.

The "Eight Extremes Space-Time" enhanced Zhang Jian’s mastery over space-time.

During the process of understanding techniques, the Immortal Dao Law Origin within Zhang Jian’s Primordial Spirit Sea of Consciousness began to expand.

A single point of Origin Immortal Light surged, starting to merge with the power of the Ancestral Qi, exuding the force of a grand root source of the Great Dao.

As this transformation emerged, Zhang Jian knew that his accumulation in the Primordial Spirit True Monarch realm was nearing perfection.

Decades of arduous cultivation rivaled the accumulation of other True Immortals over hundreds of thousands of years; Zhang Jian’s progress was undoubtedly astounding.

He was drawing ever closer to the dream of Ascension!

Zhang Jian planned to remain in secluded cultivation until just before his grand wedding.

Naturally, Zhang Jian’s actions thwarted the expectations of the Celestial Will Sect folks.

The person in charge of receiving the Celestial Will Sect group was the Crown Prince Zhang Zhao and the Crown Prince Consort Si Li’Er.

Si Li’Er was quite familiar with the people of the Celestial Will Sect.
