Chapter 29 to 30: Divine Path Breakthrough
tly, he was already sizing up everything around him.Those beasts.Actually, they aren't truly beasts. Each one is a spirit creature that has gained sentience.At a glance.The number of goblins is alread...The Hornet Clan.
Shen Changqing put the Qi Yun Yinxi into his sea of consciousness. He was clear about the various effects of the Qi Yun Yinxi in his heart.
Chi luck seal.
This is a manifestation of the clan's Qi.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Although.
As I am not a member of the Qingfeng Clan, I cannot use their Qi to fight against enemies.
But —
The Qi Yun Seal itself is a priceless treasure.
The stronger the aura, the more powerful the aura seal condensed will be.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
...like the Praying Mantis clan.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The gathered Qi Yun seal, in reality, already possessed the might equivalent to a third-grade Dao weapon.
>
As a consideration.
>
After pledging allegiance to a higher power, even the royal members of the Qīngfēng clan could no longer borrow their qi for combat. This was akin to handing over the entirety of the Qīngfēng clan's qi to someone else.
Having gotten an aura seal equivalent to a Tier 3 Dao weapon for no reason, Shen Changqing was in high spirits.
Moreover.
This is not an ordinary Third Grade Dao Soldier, but a Third Grade Dao Soldier that can grow.
In other words.
If one day, the Green Bee clan could completely transform from a small tribe into a powerful clan, then the Qi Luck Seal would also evolve further, transforming from a third-rank Dao weapon into a fourth-rank Dao weapon, and even a more powerful existence.
The only pity is.
Such celestial energy talismans are different from spirit soldiers. They do not possess their own intelligence or the ability to fight independently.
It must be controlled by a master to exert its full power.
Otherwise.
>
It was completely useless.
That's it.
It's very different from a real army.
However.
Even so, being able to obtain the Qiyun Seal is considered quite good.
The Qingfeng clan becoming a powerful clan in the future is inevitable. As for whether they can further improve, it remains to be seen.
Whatever the case may be.
The aura seal transformed into something comparable to a fourth-rank Dao weapon, and it could also bring itself significant benefits.
“My visit to the Qifeng clan this time is not only for this matter, but also to inquire about something else.”
After the concluding ceremony, Shen Changqing returned to the main hall.
Upon hearing this.
Qingyang's expression turned solemn: "Master, if you have anything to say, please speak directly!"
I would like to ask, did the Qingfeng Clan ever have an ancestral lineage in the world
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“Ancestry”
Qingyang was startled, then as if he had thought of something.
“As Your Excellency said, it refers to the Dragon Veins of Heaven and Earth, right!”
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Dragon veins
This time, Shen Changqing's mind was startled.
But after thinking about the appearance of the ancestral spirit, talking about the dragon vein doesn't seem to be a problem.
If what you say about the Dragon Veins is true, that they are the ancestor of all spiritual veins in the world, then there's nothing wrong.
“The dragon veins mentioned by my subordinates are indeed the ancestor of the world's spiritual veins. Although our Qingfeng clan is small, there are also dragon veins existing in the heaven and earth where we live.”
Qingyang answered truthfully without suspecting anything else.
He paused for a moment.
He continued speaking.
“Actually, any place in the world that has a heaven and earth or, to be more precise, any place with spiritual energy, will have dragon veins.”
Ultimately, this is because the dragon vein is referred to as the first spiritual meridian between heaven and earth, and also the ancestor of all other spiritual meridians.
If a certain world no longer possesses the dragon veins, that world will eventually face its demise.
Upon hearing this.
Chen Changqing nodded.
The dragon vein is the origin of the spirit vein, it is the root of all spirit veins in the world.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
If the dragon veins are gone, the spirit veins will lose their source, and spiritual energy will naturally cease to exist.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Once the vital energy is gone, heaven and earth will gradually enter a state of decay.
Finally.
Complete destruction.
Qingyang's words were a complete reflection of the most truthful aspects of the human world.
If the dragon veins are not repaired, the human race and the world will eventually perish.
To put it bluntly.
If the dragon veins weren't sealed by powerful beings in ancient times, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for the human race would have long since been depleted.
Then Shen Changqing continued to ask, "What kind of scene will it be when heaven and earth enter destruction Does Qinghuang understand"
The appearance of the Azure Emperor caused Azure Yang's face to break into a smile.
Qing Huang!
This is the end of a paragraph. Please note that I only translated the text within the > tags and did not modify any HTML tags. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The emperor of the Green Hornet clan!
This title, he wasn't qualified to bear before, but now, there is no problem.
And.
If this title were spoken by someone else, Qingyang wouldn't be so delighted. However, coming from Shen Changqing, it carries a different meaning.
Suppress the joy in your heart.
He let out a light cough and clasped his fists together, saying: "Actually, I haven't truly witnessed the scene of heaven and earth being destroyed. But according to the records of my Qifeng clan, there have been strong individuals who have witnessed the destruction of heaven and earth."
That was the apocalyptic scene of a great sun falling, mountains collapsing, and the power of heaven and earth being chaotic, destroying everything on its own.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Before that power, even those in the Divine Realm could potentially fall.
As for creatures below the divine realm, they possess absolutely no power to resist.
The heaven and earth will be destroyed.
No life remains.
If one can attain the realm of a god, there would still be a sliver of hope for survival. Conversely, those who haven't reached that level will only meet their demise in despair when heaven and earth are destroyed.
Upon hearing this.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Then Shen Changqing went straight to the point.
“If some of the celestial dragon veins were severed by powerful beings, wouldn't we just have to watch as heaven and earth crumbled into ruin with no way to stop it”
“Your Excellency jest,”
Qingyang shook his head.
“The dragon vein is a crucial point in the interaction between heaven and earth, so how could it be easily destroyed In fact, even if the dragon vein is cut off, it can still recover, but there is something very important needed in the process.”
"What is it"
"The Heart of the Dragon Vein."
"Dragon's Heart"
"Yes, the Dragon's Heart is the root of the dragon vein. As long as you can obtain the Dragon's Heart from other realms when there's a problem with celestial dragon veins in this world, you can solve it."
Even, some Heaven and Earth dragon veins were stolen by the strong. In order to avoid the destruction of heaven and earth, there would be those who are strong in that world, going to other worlds to forcibly take the dragon veins.
Qingyang said in a deep voice.
Speaking of this.
Even Shen Changqing understood now.
The method of dragon vein repair, simply put, is a one-for-one replacement.
>
In exchange for the destruction of one world, life is given to another.
After all.
The Heart of the Dragon Vein is the origin of the Dragon Vein.
Once the Dragon's Heart is lost, the Dragon Vein will lose its source. What the consequences would be goes without saying.
A simple question.
Even if he obtained the method to resolve the threat to the human race's existence from Qingyang's mouth.
Now there is a new problem.
That is——how to obtain the Dragon Vein Heart.
First time.
Shen Changqing immediately thought of the Green Hornet Clan.
But soon, he dismissed the idea.
The Qīngfēng clan now swears allegiance to me. If I were to take the dragon's heart from this world, the Qīngfēng clan would surely be doomed. That wouldn't benefit me in any way.
And.
There is one thing that is most important.
That is to say, although the Qīngfēng clan is loyal to themselves, they are also vassals of Zhúzōng.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Himself wanting to take the Dragon Vein Heart, it is feared that the Candle Sect will not agree.
Besides.
Shen Changqing felt that the Qingfeng clan was useful to him, and until the last moment, he still couldn't put this idea on them.
Of course.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
If it truly cannot be done, then the only option is to sacrifice the entire Qinfeng clan.
No matter what.
Humanity has always been its own source.
After a moment of thought.
He dispelled the inappropriate thoughts for the time being, and then looked at Qingyang again.
This time.
Shen Changqing did not ask any further questions.
He had already found the solution to the dragon vein, and for the rest, he would have to figure it out himself.
You asked too many questions.
It doesn't have much effect, and it might even cause some unnecessary trouble.
"As I promised before, besides giving your Qīngfēng clan 20% of my faith, I will also give you ten spots to enter the Zhúzōng every hundred years. Now you can select suitable candidates, and if you have any, I will bring them back to Zhúzōng with me."
Chen Changqing said.
Upon hearing this.
Qingyang's face lit up, and he no longer thought about what had just happened. He immediately spoke: "My subordinate has already made all the preparations. Since Your Lordship has spoken, I will have them come over."
"Hmm."
Less than a quarter of an hour.
There were ten disciples of the Qingfeng Clan who appeared before Shen Changqing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Unlike Qingyang who manifested a human form, these disciples, though also appearing as humans, were clearly using a superficial and crude illusion.
In other words.
In Shen Changqing's eyes, these ten members of the Qingfeng Clan were actually ten giant green bees. To ordinary people, however, they looked just like normal humans.
That's it.
He also has some understanding.
Among all the celestial races, only those who reach the Saint Realm can transcend tribulation and thus possess the ability to transform into an avatar.
The so-called Taoist body.
It is similar in form to the human race, and has more conveniences in its cultivation.
>
Before reaching the realm of saints, it is impossible to possess a Dao body.
>
But.
Although it cannot possess a Dao body, it can use certain means to transform into the appearance of a Dao body, being indistinguishable from a true Dao body on the surface.
However, what's inside has nothing to do with the physical body.
"They are the most outstanding geniuses among my Qinfeng clan. Although they haven't reached the Saint Realm, they have all entered the Transcendent Realm. I believe that with their entry into the Zhu Chong Sect, ascending to the Saint Realm will be no problem at all."
Qingyang explained briefly at the right moment.
That's it.
He looked again at the ten people.
"Hurry and see His Majesty!"
"I have seen your esteemed self!"
Upon hearing this, the ten men hurriedly bowed in respect.
Could they possibly not recognize Shen Changqing's identity The Qingfeng Clan had just declared their allegiance to him.
It's just that Qingyang is here, and these talented members of the Qingfeng Clan wouldn't dare to speak out of turn.
Upon seeing this.
Shen Changqing nodded. "No need for ceremony, from now on you will enter my Qiongfeng, and be disciples of my Qiongfeng!"
He is a direct disciple.
As a direct disciple, one also has the right to accept disciples.
However.
Each master who accepts disciples has a limit on the number of students they can take. If the number does not exceed this limit, the sect will provide all the resources needed for cultivation.
Conversely.
If the number of applicants exceeds the quota, participants will have to find their own solutions for training resources.
Zhong Shanqiu had devoted himself to cultivation in the past. Besides recruiting a few servants, he had never accepted any disciples at all, so there was no such thing as exceeding the quota.
Now, Shen Changqing can take advantage of this opportunity to recruit all the members of the Qifeng clan.
Anyway, the position is vacant anyway, it's better to fill it.
Each one is personally taught.
Each has the authority to recruit one hundred disciples.
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
With ten spots available every ten years, a single clan of the Green Hornets wouldn't have to worry about getting in for a thousand years.
Back to the Zhú Sect.
At first, Shen Changqing immediately reported to the high-level officials of his sect, enrolling all ten geniuses of the Qingfeng Clan under the command of Chou Feng and allowing them to enjoy certain resources.
The inner room.
A steward with a respectful expression.
"Descendant of the Enemy Clan, the ten genius members of the Azure Bee Clan you brought are all at the Transcendent Realm. According to the sect's regulations, they can temporarily be enrolled as outer sect disciples and enjoy the same treatment as other outer sect disciples."
If they can enter the Sacred Stage, then they can become inner disciples and enjoy the treatment of inner disciples.
"No problem."
Shen Changqing nodded.
He also has some understanding of this matter.
Inside the Zhúzōng.
Apart from the lowest-ranking attendants, there are outer sect disciples.
The term "Outer Sect Disciple" was a general classification for all beings below the Saint rank. Whether there were any further subdivisions within this category, Zhong Shan Qiu's remaining memories did not provide any relevant information.
>
It's understandable.
The other party at least is a direct disciple, so they wouldn't bother with an outer sect disciple's affairs.
Above the outer gate.
That is the inner gate.
All disciples who enter the Sacred Stage can become inner disciples.
That can be said.
Inner disciples are considered the backbone of any sect, serving as the reserve force for potential future gods.
Ascending from the Saintly Realm to the Divine Realm is extremely difficult.
If you say.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If one god realm can be achieved from a hundred sacred steps, then ten thousand sacred steps could produce a hundred god realms.
Therefore.
The larger the number of inner disciples, the more profound the foundation of the sect.
However, the consumption is also frightening.
However, compared to the subsequent benefits, this expenditure is negligible. Both the sect and the race behind it can afford it.
After becoming an inner disciple, if one can break through the Divine Realm, their status will transform further and become a true傳 disciple.
If one were to say.
Inner disciples are the backbone of a sect, serving as reserves for future gods. True傳 disciples, on the other hand, are the sect's main fighting force that faces the outside world.
As for the disciples who were personally taught by him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Those who stand out among the true disciples are eligible to become direct disciples.
Any one who was taught directly.
There is a possibility of becoming a God King in the future.
However.
The divine king is difficult to achieve.
Even among direct disciples, only a handful truly become divine kings.
But whatever.
Direct disciples are the focus of the sect's full effort. Among many direct disciples, if even one can become a God King, it would be considered a complete success.
>He came out of the Office of Internal Affairs.
Then Shen Changqing led the ten members of the Green Bee Clan back to Choufeng.
“In the future, you will all be my disciple, Heifeng's disciples. The corresponding resources can be obtained from the inner affairs hall of the sect. As for martial arts, you can choose to practice at the sect library or ask Cui Fu for guidance.”
In the middle of their conversation, he turned to Cui Fu beside him and introduced him as well.
"Cui Fu is the steward of my enemy, Feng. He's also a Saint-ranked expert himself. Having spent many years in the Candle Sect, he has rich cultivation experience and should be able to guide you well."
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"Besides—"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
They are the geniuses of the Qingfeng clan. Now they have entered my Choufeng as outer disciples. Cui Fu, if you have time, please give them some guidance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Lastly, Shen Changqing looked at Cui Fu and gave him a final piece of advice.
Teach the disciples.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
He definitely wouldn't waste that time.
If this were just a human, it wouldn't be a problem. But since he's already wearing the identity of Zhong Shanqiu and doing this again, it seems a bit redundant.
Anyway, given Chou Feng's experience managing people of the extraordinary realm, guiding some disciples at that level shouldn't be a big issue.
Cui Fu bowed deeply: "Master, please rest assured, I will do my best."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"That's best."
After settling the affairs of the Qīngfēng clan, Shen Changqing was planning to leave Zhúzōng and go to other places to dispose of the two pieces of divine kingdom fragments in his hand when Zhōng Shānxiǎ came knocking again.
"Elder Xia's sudden visit, I wonder what instructions you have"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
As for this powerful expert from the Candle Sect, he had a great deal of fear in his heart.
Dressed in a vest, infiltrating the Candle Sect, Shen Changqing really didn't want to face the strong cultivators of the Candle Sect.
Although the chances of being discovered are extremely slim, it's better to be safe than sorry.
If I were truly exposed, I might not even be able to escape.
Up to this day.
He also understood that although a First Rank divine ability was powerful, it wasn't strong enough to stand against a God King.
Even with the resources of the Zhú Zong, the probability of safely retreating even if they possessed a first-grade divine ability would not be high.
To put it simply.
The strength of supernatural powers still depends on one's ability.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Not enough strength.
The power that supernatural abilities can exert is also limited.
In Zhong Shanchou's memory, Elder Xia before him was no ordinary person.
Realm Complete!
And not an ordinary divine realm can compare with it.
Without noticing Shen Changqing's inner apprehension, Zhong Shanxia said calmly, "You did recover the Qingfeng clan"
"Not bad."
Shen Changqing nodded in agreement.
He hadn't thought that this matter would be able to conceal the candle sect.
Besides.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
There's no need to hide this.
“You did a great job!”
Zhong Shan's summer face rarely showed such a smile, he then took out a jade box.
"Recovering the Qingfeng clan has boosted our clan's fortune. This is a good thing. The sect specially awards you with a piece of Pure Stone."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
In the midst of their conversation.
The jade box in his hand automatically floated up and landed in front of the other person.
Seeing this.
Shen Changqing directly took the jade box.
“Thanks for the sect’s gift!”
"Train well."
Zhong Shanxia shook her head slightly and said a word, then turned and left.
Seeing this, Shen Changqing did not say anything, and then turned his gaze to the jade box in front of him.
Open the jade box.
Inside, there lay an irregular stone, like crystal, resting quietly.
>
To the Pure Stone!
A treasure that can refine impurities of faith, allowing cultivators to quickly absorb the power of faith.
“Zhong Shan Chou entered the Forbidden Zone of Death for the purpose of finding the Pure Stone. Never did he expect that the Pure Stone would end up in my hands in such a way. Truly, fate is a fickle thing!”
Shen Changqing felt a surge of emotion in his heart.
If Zhong Shanchou hadn't entered the Death Forbidden Zone, the other party might not have fallen at his hands.
Now.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He died, but the Pure Stone ended up in his own hands.
Things change constantly, that's just how it is.
"Now, I have gained the faith of eight out of ten blue bees. It is more than double the amount I received before. This way, I can use the Pure Stone to help me borrow my origin and enter the fourth level of the Divine Realm first!"
Shen Changqing had a plan in mind.
My own power is currently unusable. The main external force I have comes from Zhong Shanchou's original source.
But.
The third level of the divine realm is, after all, too weak.
If you can enter the fourth level of the Divine Realm, and reach the intermediate stage of the Divine Realm, then things will be much better.
The other party's origin has always been in the late stage of the third level of the divine realm, not much different from the fourth level of the divine realm.
If one obtains a piece of top-quality jade stone today, the chances of breaking through are almost 100%.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Make a decision.
Shen Changqing didn't waste any time and immediately announced that he was entering seclusion.
Inside the main hall.
He crossed his legs and sat down. The jade stone had already been taken out of the jade box by him and placed in front of him.
And then.
According to the thoughts in his mind about using the pure stone, he focused his soul power onto the stone and brought it into his sea of consciousness.
in the sea of knowledge.
The divine fire ignited, while the pure stone remained peacefully placed atop it.
And beside the flames of god, there is golden faith power surging.
That is the unique belief of the Praying Mantis clan.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Then.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing controlled that power of faith and channeled it into the Purifying Stone.
Only to see the golden faith, like a river, pouring madly into the Pure Stone. The palm-sized stone trembled violently.
Not long.
There is pure golden power, flowing out from the Pure Essence Stone and merging into the divine fire power.
Boom—
in an instant.
The divine fire seemed to have been stimulated by some kind of fuel. The originally calm and flickering flames suddenly intensified much more, and the heat was also significantly higher than before.
At that moment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing only felt a sense of comfort and self-awareness surging from the depths of his being, as if he had entered a state of pure bliss.
Time flies.
As the divine fire absorbed more and more faith, it gradually reached a critical point of transformation.
>
It could be an hour, or it could be a day.
Once the power of the divine fire was recorded to a certain extent, it seemed to break through a bottleneck and suddenly started to vibrate violently.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Only to see the original red divine fire gradually faded its original color, and then rendered a faint blue.
As the divine fire transformed into azure, a powerful force erupted from Shen Changqing's sea of consciousness. The vast main hall seemed to form a terrible storm.
Very soon.
Inside the main hall, each formation was activated, protecting everything within from being destroyed by that storm's power.
After a long while.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing opened his eyes. The Zhineng Stone, which had originally been in his sea of consciousness, was now taken out again.
Only to see the crystal-like jade, which was once pristine, now turned as black as ink.
"The Pure Cleansing Stone, truly worthy of being a treasure for divine realm cultivation!"
Looking at the stone before him, which had become as black as ink, he wore an expression of contemplation.
A flawless piece of stone.
Let oneself draw on the strength of faith, no need to waste time refining it, directly breaking through to the fourth level of the divine realm in terms of realm.
Shen Changqing believes.
If there were enough Pure Jade Stones, he was confident that within ten years, he could directly reach the state of completion in the Divine Realm.
But unfortunately.
The glazed stone is priceless.
>
It's already fortunate to be able to get one piece. It's impossible to obtain a large amount of pure stone.
Perhaps within the Zhúzong, there exists a Zhizhen Stone capable of allowing a deity to directly cultivate to perfection. However, it's impossible for Zhúzong to give all the Zhizhen Stones to themselves.
Therefore.
This idea, Shen Changqing was just thinking about it.
>
“No wonder Zhong Shanqiu was willing to enter the Death Forbidden Zone for a pure stone. If I were a Taoist, I would probably also be willing to take risks and enter there to find enough pure stones!”
He sighed inwardly.
Then, shifted his attention to the stone in front of him.
Now the purifying stone is blackened, indicating that it has been entirely polluted by impurities of faith and no longer serves the purpose of refining faith.was a Daoist soldier, it was not possible to keep him in one place forever.Staying for too long is actually no different from being in a form of imprisonment.So.When the martial arts scroll was opened...
