Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Chapter 242: The Three Lords Meet and Finalize the Agreement! The Most Difficult Prefecture Examination in History!
Jiangyin Prefecture.

The immense fluctuations of this grand spectacle shocked almost every force with a renowned martial arts master in command.

Thirty-six trades, dojo masters, and schools of martial arts on overseas islands.
One by one, the Qi Refining masters watched from afar as the powerful immortal 'Yin Yang Daoist' who had broken through the boundary gate fought against the 'Dharma Image Phantom' that suddenly appeared from the Eastern Canghai Sea.

His expression was one of utter astonishment.

In the past, even the title of "Jiangyin Prefecture" was rarely seen for decades, so how could one have witnessed such a scene that resembled a "natural disaster"?

With every gesture, he could overturn the heavens!

this.
Even the titles bestowed upon those in the three higher realms pale in comparison to this divine power, which is akin to the might of heaven.

Who exactly is this person? And why did he come to Jiangyin Prefecture? What is buried in that 'Yuanfu Ancient Site' that suddenly appeared from the sea?
These former powerful figures of the prefecture were filled with doubts, and they seemed to vaguely sense a message.

That is.
The current situation in Jiangyin Prefecture may be completely overturned after what happened today!

And at this time.

Jin'ao Island.

Ji Xiu boarded the flying boat piloted by Daoist Chijing and immediately saw his younger sister Ji Wei and Fan Nansong, the abbot of Feixian Temple.

Before he could even speak, the Crimson Sky Daoist saw that after the 'Yin-Yang Daoist' struck the Yuanfu Ancient Ruins, not only did it fail to succeed, but it was also directly defeated by a phantom image of a Dharma image that emerged from within, falling into the sea and suffering Dao injuries.

His eyes widened in surprise:
"The 'True Venerable Xuanxiao,' one of the living fossils of the Xuanfu Sect who wields a lineage of authentic great supernatural powers, personally took action, and actually managed to repel the master of the Yuan Mansion!?"

"This is a living fossil-level existence on par with the True Venerable of the Myriad Laws Sect, who took charge of the lineage during the years when the 'Great Supernatural Beings' had not yet been revived."

"Such a person, without even meeting that Dao Lord in person, was forced into such a predicament by the contingency plan he left behind?"

"Hiss! Just who was this 'Lord of Impermanence of All Laws' at his peak? Why are there so few records of him in the Flying Immortal Sect's scriptures!"

"That shouldn't be the case. Such a supreme being is probably already infinitely close to, or even has already touched, the 'Immortal' level."

"Logically speaking, even if one is not a member of an ancient lineage, one should still leave a significant mark in the annals of heaven and earth, be passed down by various lineages, and be recorded in detail, thus serving as a manifestation of the long history and numerous testimonies of the 'lineage'."

"But why is it that within the sect, it's as if they've deliberately buried and hidden it, without mentioning it at all?"

Daoist Chijing muttered to himself, seemingly puzzled.

Then, as if struck by a thought, he flicked his sleeve, and a terrifying conjecture gradually surfaced in his mind:

"But then again..."

"An ancient site that could revive one of the few ancient ancestors of the Xuanfu Sect after a long period of slumber, and even cause them to suffer a loss in silence."

"Isn't the Yuan Mansion of the 'Lord of Impermanence of All Laws' more than just a simple separate mansion?"

"Could it be that"

It is his original mantle, or even the place where he was buried after his death!?
Daoist Chijing swallowed hard.

If that's the case, then everything can actually be explained.

I have heard that when Lord Zhufa Wuchang was young, he came from the Xuanfu Sect and had a long-standing connection with it.

The Xuanfu Sect went so far as to revive an ancient ancestor who came personally.
It's hard to say that it wasn't for the purpose of scheming for some kind of 'thing'.

Of course, as a junior cultivator, he wouldn't know so much about these key points.

But if he can't afford to offend them, he can at least avoid them!
Cultivators from humble backgrounds and martial artists who risk their lives for the Great Profound Realm both admire the idea of ​​seizing any opportunity they see.

But in reality, those born into high-ranking families and with connections often emphasize 'avoiding calamity'.

As long as you follow the steps and reach the threshold, you can avoid disasters and difficulties when you re-enter the world, eliminating 99% of the obstacles.

Especially in places like these, where the waters are so deep they are 'unfathomable,' unless there are things in there that must be fought over, things that are crucial to one's path, then it is best to stay far away from them.

Otherwise, if things go wrong, you could die and your life would be over, and then you would have nothing left!

What a pity.

A mere phantom image of Dharma was enough to repel a True Venerable!
Even if that 'Lord of Impermanence of All Laws' wasn't at the level of an Immortal during his peak, he was probably not far off.

The fact that he could bury such a grand Yuan Dynasty mansion.
In this vast territory of Xuan, there is only one such case, and that is—

'The soldiers dismantle the Great Tomb'!
Legend has it that this is the 'immortal tomb' where true immortals, great supernatural beings, and Buddhas fought and perished. Laws swirl within it at all times, and those at the upper three realms cannot even set foot inside!
The Great Xuan people even regarded it as a place of inheritance. As long as it was opened, martial artists at the peak of the Qi Dao from the Three Mountains and Five Lakes and the Eighteen Garrisons would travel over mountains and rivers to compete for the opportunity to be granted a title.

Legend has it that the place is full of opportunities and chances. If you are lucky, you can find rare elixirs and secret techniques that are hard to find outside, as if you found them on the ground.

Those who manage to survive it almost always undergo a transformative metamorphosis.

In the past, there were many warriors who seized the opportunity and became the 'strongest of the era' during that brief period, with each generation able to reach the top of the 'Young Dragon Stele'.

One of the Ten Pillars of Heaven in the present era, almost the leader of the pillars, the next generation of the Sword Master of Jiangnan Sword Mountain, whom all sword practitioners in the world worship. He was the number one on the previous generation's Rising Dragon List, known as "the most invincible in the present era, who emerged from the Tomb of Disintegration".

Even the Yuan Palace of the Dao Lord of Impermanence of All Laws cannot compare to the mystery and tragedy of the Tomb of Disintegration.
That would probably be enough to make people all over the world flock to it.

Within the White Jade Capital, there are eighteen regional military governors!

All eyes will be fixed on this corner of the 'East China Sea'.

At that time, it will become the focus of the world!
compare to.

These so-called "prodigies of Jiangyin Prefecture" probably wouldn't even have the chance to serve tea and water.

Only those sons of high-ranking families from a single prefecture might be able to take advantage of a time difference and have a chance to go in.

Daoist Chijing held several Dao coins in his hand, intending to perform the 'Six Lines Divination' technique.

However, this divination method is only considered a "side path" and cannot be regarded as a "true and great supernatural power," so its techniques are limited.

Secondly, he himself has not yet achieved the status of a true master of supernatural powers, and has not imprinted it into his destiny so that he can exert its full effects; his skill is not yet up to par.

Therefore, he has not yet put his plan into action, but wants to calculate the ups and downs and fortunes of Jiangyin Prefecture.

Then the coin cracked into pieces with a 'crack', immediately causing a deep sense of apprehension to appear on the face of Daoist Chijing.

In addition, Ji Xiu carries the key to his practice of supernatural powers and divination, as well as the extraordinary and powerful destiny of 'four lives and five lifetimes' that he relies on.

The two combined caused the Taoist priest to become anxious, and he couldn't help but say a few more words:
“Young friend Ji, I am about to follow the decree of my lineage and take the Venerable Master’s disciple to another residence to bestow the ordination certificate and the true teachings.”

"In my opinion, you might as well come with me. You have a profound Daoist nature, while my lineage is connected to the heavens. You can cultivate in seclusion for several years, and then you will be more than qualified to go to the 'Red Sky Heaven' Wanfa Sect to study the true teachings of the immortals."

"There's no need to stay in this volatile Jiangyin Prefecture and risk your life. Your life is precious."

However, Ji Xiu was gazing at the East Sea at this moment. Although he heard Chi Jing Dao Ren's words clearly, they did not enter his heart at all.

At this moment.

Ji Xiu's entire mind was focused on that 'Yuan Mansion'. He had only one thought: to step inside and explore the 'secrets' left behind by this ancient site!
'The Lord of Impermanence' Jiang Jing.

But he once embodied the 'Yellow Millet Dream'!
In other words, now that you've seen the 'traces' you left behind in the past, why would you avoid them?

Even with countless dangers.

But as long as I can once again access the medium related to 'river view', allowing myself to escape the illusion and return to the time when I glimpsed the true teachings in the 'Sumeru Cave'...
Then it was all worth it!

Just as 'The King's Power Never Fades' embodies his cultivation as a martial artist.

江景
That was the breakthrough point that enabled him to overpower all the gods and immortals of the world in the realm of immortals and divine souls!
Only by glimpsing what lies beyond the Sumeru Cave can he make leaps in his cultivation and magic after reaching the 'Purple Mansion'.

Rather than placing these hopes on the 'Teach of Ten Thousand Laws'... Ji Xiu
He wanted to realize his dream of wealth and power, using his identity as "Jiang Jing" to explore and acquire knowledge!

compare to.

Prefectural examination official, high-ranking official in charge of a region.
It's already insignificant!

"I appreciate your kind offer, Master Chijing."

"but."

"Please steer the flying boat and take me to Jiangyin Wharf."

"I want to stand beside my masters of the Heavenly Blade True Sect and the Dragon Elephant True Sect and witness this storm."

"Although I know very little about the 'Lord of Impermanence of All Things,' the lineage of such a title is right beside me, and there have been rumors in the state that the upcoming examination for prefectural officials will be held at an 'ancient site.'"

"We should go and fight for it."

"You're unworthy of being called a warrior!"

Seeing Ji Xiu standing at the bow of the boat, his double pupils gleaming, he was almost completely captivated by this sudden turn of events, unable to extricate himself.

Daoist Chijing choked, about to say something more.
At this moment.

Ji Wei's bright eyes sparkled as she tugged at his sleeve, her gaze towards Ji Xiu filled with joy.

“Senior, my brother and I were homeless in a poor cave dwelling in Anning County a few years ago. The reason we have come this far is because he has this kind of ‘spirit’!”

"Even the three trials of a martial artist with strong muscles and skin couldn't stop him. After he became a master of Qi cultivation and established his own foundation, my brother's spirit never diminished in the slightest!"

"That's how he got here before, and he has his own path to walk in the future!"

"Unlike many of the senior disciples and elder brothers in the sect who cultivate in seclusion without ever leaving their homes."

Seeing the girl's serious face, her expression conveyed only one meaning: "My brother is different from yours," which made Daoist Chijing's face darken.

No, I understand the logic, but what does this little darling mean by saying that?
To his face, he pointed his finger at him and said he was not as good as his brother.

Even if he had grievances in his heart, the brother and sister were single-minded and worked together in the same direction, leaving Daoist Chijing helpless and with no way to stop them.

Only flying boats can be piloted
We've arrived at Jiangyin Wharf!

Jiangyin Prefecture.

At this moment, the sky darkened, dark clouds gathered, the sea wind howled, and huge waves surged!

Qi Zhao, the ferry captain, was quite frightened by the scene that resembled a natural disaster. Just when he was at a loss, all the important figures in Jiangyin Prefecture arrived.

Xu Longxiang, Wang Xuanyang, and Xiao Pingnan, who came from the prefectural government office.

The three of them worked together to directly quell the aftershocks left by the illusory image of 'The Dao Lord of Impermanence' and the 'True Venerable Xuanxiao' who had crossed the boundary gate.

Then, with a heavy frown, he looked at the undulating sea.

at this time.

The illusory image of the Dharma that appeared above the ancient Yuan Mansion vanished into countless stardust after its successful strike.

But the magnificent sound he left behind echoed throughout the entire Jiangyin Prefecture, making it impossible for anyone to ignore.

As for that cross-realm 'True Venerable Xuanxiao'...
After a very long time, it finally emerged from the other side of the Eastern Sea, blood trickling from the corner of its mouth, its hair ornament disheveled, looking as if it were about to collapse.

He gazed intently at the Yuan Mansion of the 'Impermanent Lord of All Laws,' a flicker of resentment crossing his eyes. But as he looked at the tribulation lightning brewing in the sky, a deep sense of dread washed over him as his heart churned.
Just as he took a step forward, summoning the jade ruyi with its cracks, and was about to force his way in once again!
Suddenly!
A magnificent, shimmering palace, radiating a bluish-green light, suddenly appeared, galloping from the edge of the Eastern Sea.

As a carefree chuckle echoed, the face of the Xuanxiao True Venerable who had broken through the boundary immediately darkened, and he felt displeased.

“Brother Dao, didn’t we, the Xuanfu Sect, the Water Lord’s Mansion, and the official feudal lord’s mansion of the Great Xuan Beicang, reach an agreement beforehand?”

"Is it true that if there are restrictions on the ancient site of the Yuan Mansion of the Daoist Lord of Impermanence of All Laws, then one can simply let one's own descendants enter and find their own opportunities?"

"Once it appeared in the world, you noticed something amiss. It wasn't one of the seventy-two fake tombs that 'Jiang Daojun' casually arranged back then. It seemed to be the real Yuan Mansion. So you couldn't resist taking the initiative and trying to force your way in?"

"Even if you want to attack, why don't you wait for me, the Dragon Lord, to join you? I can lend you a hand."

"Now look what's happened, I'm covered in Dao injuries, and even such a superior Dao artifact has been damaged. It won't be able to be repaired in a hundred or two hundred years. Isn't that a huge loss?"

The words that echoed through heaven and earth have faded away.

Suddenly, a dazzling array of colorful clouds appeared, auspicious clouds gathered, and extraordinary phenomena were illuminated.

Immediately afterwards, a young man wearing a Qingli jade crown and a gleaming dragon king's crown stepped out of the palace, a smile on his face, seemingly without any airs.

But behind it all was a colossal, azure-scaled dragon, its scales gleaming brightly, soaring above the vast ocean like a king.

He looked straight at the Xuanxiao True Venerable, whose hair was disheveled and who remained silent, and at the Great Xuanjiang Yin Mansion overlooking him. He spoke softly, but his voice was firm and clear, and could be heard from hundreds of miles away.

At the end of the Eastern Sea.

He was the master of the Water Lord's Palace, who fell from another 'celestial realm' and was appointed by the Great Xuan.
The Dragon King of the East Sea personally rode his magical water palace here because of the birth of this 'Yuanfu Ancient Site'!

And looking at these successive fluctuations.

The three officials of Jiangyin Prefecture, especially Xiao Pingnan who represented the government, found the situation very difficult.

However----

Hu Mao, the Prefect of Jiangyin, was running alongside him, his brow beaded with sweat.
However, he personally brought over the 'Prefectural Garrison Map' that was displayed in the prefectural government office.

Its surface is covered with interwoven patterns that vibrate and tremble.
Less than a few breaths!

Then the phantom of 'Chen Xuanque' emerged from the mountains and rivers, and when it saw the immortals who had crossed the boundary gate and the Lord of the Dragon King personally arrive.

Despite the significant difference in cultivation level, he still maintained the dignity of a Great Xuan Lord, behaving neither servile nor arrogant. He merely bowed and spoke:

"Everyone."

"Regardless of the circumstances."

"This place is all part of my 'Great Xuan Territory'."

"Since Your Excellency cannot break through the barrier..."

"As we said before, let the talented disciples of each sect step into it and take what they need, as a kind of trial, shall we?"

He finished speaking.

The Dragon King of the East Sea smiled:

"good."

The Yin-Yang Daoist pursed his lips:
"."

After a long while, he flicked his sleeves and hurriedly darted back into the 'Gateway to the Realm,' as if afraid of being plotted against by some scheming person who might take advantage of his Dao injury to ambush him halfway.

Before stepping in with one foot, he left behind a sentence:
"Can!"

All of a sudden.

The three powerful figures revealed their identities and jointly finalized the agreement!
