Chapter 219: Overlord of the Far East, Hundred Threads of Heart Lamps, Yin Demon

Chapter 219: Overlord of the Far East, Hundred Threads of Heart Lamps, Yin Demon

"You guys are really something..." Ji Jingqiu sighed softly.

He never expected that Sen Luo and the others would be so capable. In the few months he was away, they directly occupied the south of the Ancient Path and continued their march north, about to join forces with several forbidden powers that he was about to subdue.

Were they trying to push him onto the throne of the Overlord of the Far East?

After listening to Zi Rixin's detailed report, Ji Jingqiu finally understood the current scale of the Sun Moon Alliance.

Including the allied forces that had formed pacts, the Sun Moon Alliance alone possessed nearly ten forbidden-level combat powers.

If they were to join forces with the Ten Thousand Phases Kingdom, the Unworry Heaven, and other powers in the north of the Ancient Path, the number of forbidden-level warriors would directly exceed half.

After the Sun Moon Alliance consecutively crushed several forbidden powers, almost all the forces on the Ancient Path that refused to bow down had united.

They could only go to certain forbidden grounds to fight mythical creatures.

[...]



Jiang Feng, who had experienced a failed marriage and bankruptcy, had an extremely severe psychological shadow from it.

"This is my Divine Form. If you have any matters, speak to it. It shares my consciousness, and when necessary, I can communicate with you through it."

Thinking about his past self, Qian Zhong couldn't help but feel ashamed. Jiang Feng's ability to enter the Heavenly Realm proved that he was undoubtedly a genius in his time, but compared to Ji Jingqiu, it seemed like they were from different worlds.

The other party was a warrior from the Heavenly Net Palace, left behind in Phantom City after the Heavenly Net Palace initially retreated. He had been lying in wait for a long time.

Now, Jiang Feng needed to complete the accommodation of all the Spirit Essences and open up the final third layer of the Divine Treasury. Even with the good fortune of the "Floating Cloud Boat" to shorten the refinement of the Spirit Essences, it would still take at least two months.

"What's wrong?"

"That means, until now, Ji Jingqiu has only practiced martial arts for a year?"

"Phantom City... Deep in my memory, there is a mark of this city. It was once a plane ruled by a disciple under a Heaven Venerable."

And now, this young man had already reached an extraordinary height. Qian Zhong beside him took a deep breath, feeling a chill.

The former decisively said, "I'll order the Death Array Army to patrol the city."

The constraints of heaven and earth on them seemed non-existent in the Nine Provinces.

The reason they were cooperating with this person was to drive away the wolves and swallow the tigers, intending to borrow his power to avenge Zhong Nanzhu.

[There is no need to go to the Great Red Heaven Palace, at that time, I will open the gate of the spirit world and watch the final trial.]



Currently, the two sides had their first formal meeting, exchanging gifts to show respect and friendship between the two nations.

Because when they finally left the Ancient Path, the warriors who left their names on the Ten Thousand Year Monument could choose to bring out some of their possessions from the Ancient Path! In the past few months, the Sun Moon Alliance had expanded its influence and successively surrounded several forbidden powers, and five Heavenly Herbs had already been transplanted into the treasure trove.

"Yin Demon?"

"Additionally, the Dark Mansion has somehow found a mysterious forbidden-level warrior, and we still haven't uncovered his background and origins. Last week, he alone stopped Yang Qu and Nu Sa, and it seemed like he wasn't even using his full strength."

"That's natural. With Ji Jingqiu entering the forbidden realm and the assistance of the Nine Palaces' warriors, he can absolutely dominate a region on the Ancient Path and become one of the few standing at the top, sharpening each other with other forbidden-level warriors!"

[...]



"I'll give you five hundred yuan per hour. Can you accompany me to the park to ride the carousel?"

He suddenly frowned, sensing a hidden gaze upon him. After planting the seed of the Heart Flame Omnipotent Lamp, his spiritual awareness had surged, and his inspiration was soaring.

Fortunately, this time's gift was provided by the Heavenly Deity Temple, otherwise, the Dragon Tiger Dojo would have to go bankrupt again.

"Unfortunately, the Dark Sea is overturned, and the great calamity has begun. Everything is an illusion."

Even though the Eastern Star had already been claimed by Ji Jingqiu and was under the control of the Dragon Tiger Dojo, it was still difficult to guard against everything.

Although there were no forbidden-level powers stationed in Phantom City at the moment, the gathering of the Death Array Army and the presence of several Kingly Apex warriors ensured the city's safety.

Thinking of those two Golden Pengs, Ji Jingqiu no longer insisted on going into seclusion before the appointed day. Instead, he began his transformation, determined to return and take revenge in the future.

"You came to me because there's news about Ji Jingqiu?" The young man was none other than the embodiment of the Ancient Path's will, who, through the Heavenly Net Palace, had sacrificed over a hundred warriors and finally managed to descend a divided soul in the Far East War Zone, where he had been cultivating until now, and his divine power had reached a minor level of success.

If it were just a level-one Yama Float Mist crisis, they would still have a way to overcome it. For example, some special areas in the Yama Float could produce a kind of bamboo called "Six Sense Purification Bamboo," which could help resist the mist's invasion to some extent.

Moreover, what surprised him the most was the distant departure of the Heavenly People's Five Decays.

"My name is Chen Jingyu, not Dead Fish."

A figure quietly entered the city, with blood-red eyes and a mysterious mental power emanating from his body, making him seemingly unnoticeable to others.

The Four Divine Lords had already established a sub-temple of the Divine Temple in the Eastern Star, with a new God-chosen Zhuang as the grand priest.

[...]



The Nine Provinces, the territory of the Jin Clan.

On one hand, led by the Dark Mansion, they directly confronted and resisted the Sun Moon Alliance.

Upon hearing that Ji Jingqiu had entered seclusion and was about to break through again, everyone was shocked, wondering what level of combat power he would reach after coming out of seclusion this time...

He calculated the time; when Ji Jingqiu first came to the Nine Provinces, he had only practiced martial arts for half a year!

With these resources, opening the third layer of the Divine Treasury was almost guaranteed.

At the top of a tall building, ten people sat in a circle, among whom five figures had powerful auras, all forbidden-level warriors, while the rest were mostly representatives of various forces.

[...]



According to Zi Rixin's description, Chi Ji, the forbidden-level warrior from the Dark Mansion, was clearly even stronger than that.

[...]



The man withdrew his gaze, slightly surprised that even an ordinary warrior from the Sun Moon Alliance could sense his surveillance. Just then—

The Heavenly Net Palace warrior shivered.

The strength of mythical creatures varies greatly, and they are difficult to control, such as the two Golden Phoenixes that combined their attacks.

A martial artist from the Heavenly Net Palace gritted his teeth and said, "And there's Sen Luo too!"

"I wonder which power the Heavenly Lord is from?" someone asked tentatively, even they were curious about this person's background.

Love, not even dogs talk about it? One day, he served a special customer.

He could tell that Long Qingyang was just a step away from becoming a Grandmaster, so he took the initiative to propose a friendly sparring match and addressed each other as brothers.

On the ancient path, what's the point of talking about benevolence? Only a strong fist is the true principle! "The Alliance Leader has returned! Currently, my big brother has gained insights from his journey on the ancient path and has already gone into seclusion in the Sun Moon dimension, preparing for another breakthrough."

He left Pang Hu with Zi Rixin.

"I wonder how this kid is doing on the ancient path," Long Qingyang muttered, voicing the thoughts of everyone, "I hope nothing unexpected happens, and it's more important for him to live safely to the end, rather than a moment of glory."

Zi Rixin stood up, her sharp eyes scanning the surroundings, while the Kingly Realm warrior who was always by her side as her personal bodyguard was alert.

Who would have thought that the Alliance Leader was so formidable, and he actually 'raised' such a lovable Divine Form.

...

Ji Jingqiu specifically instructed Zi Rixin to pass on a message to Sen Luo and the others—

Before entering the trial training ground, it would be difficult for him to find such pressure among his peers.

Zi Rixin directly retrieved all the available stocks for Ji Jingqiu.

The Imperial Heaven City leader smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are still people on your side who can match him, especially the female from the Holy King lineage. At that time, I'll take advantage of their confrontation and secretly make a move to kill him!"

"Oh, by the way, Alliance Leader, Sen Luo and I have discussed it, and currently, the ancient path is frequently shrouded in strange mist. We need you to provide some more Heart Lamp seeds." Zi Rixin looked at Ji Jingqiu expectantly, "Also, Jiang Tunhai, Yue Huansha, and the others, after witnessing the power of the Heart Lamp, they also want to request a strand from the Sun Moon Alliance."

Not long after, Lu Tong came to seek Long Qingyang in a personal capacity.

Long Qingyang couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

But as he stepped into the Nine Provinces, the five declines of the Heaven People he had vaguely sensed completely vanished!

Jiang Tunhai's eyes lit up, having already seen the power of the Mind Flame Omnipotent Lamp, and he was even more eager now with the frequent strange mist.

Everyone: "..."

"Oh?" Long Qingyang suddenly became interested. He did have plans to stay in the Nine Provinces for a long time.

Among the gifts from the Great Red Heaven Palace were three Heavenly Herbs, a gesture so grand that it left Long Qingyang speechless.

At this moment, receiving Lu Tong's invitation and learning that the Great Red Heaven Palace had the means to observe the scenes within the ancient path, Long Qingyang's heart stirred.

It was very subtle, a fleeting glimpse, but it left an indelible impression on him!

Forbidden Sequences are also hierarchical. The five from the Hanging Temple, except for Sheng Ya, basically entered the Forbidden Sequence on the ancient path, and only had the qualification to challenge the Ten Thousand Phases Monument within the top three hundred.

"Can the Red Princess of the Heavenly Deity Temple make a move?" The leader of the Dark Mansion, You Chengkong, looked at the World of Suffering.

Phantom City.

Unlike the Federation Martial Arts, the cultivation system in the Nine Provinces was like a hundred flowers blooming, and many of these systems did not have the restriction of starting cultivation at the age of sixteen.

A huge building stood at the end of the road, and few martial artists passed by.

The ancient path is so vast, and the Sun Moon Alliance doesn't have to force everyone to bow down. It's enough to just give them a warning, and all the Forbidden Sequences will back down.

Finally, Mu Qing made the final decision.

Under the lush canopy of the luxuriant tree, Long Qingyang raised his head and sighed sincerely in a low voice.

Zi Rixin couldn't help but tug at Pang Hu, who was being carried by Ji Jingqiu.

But if the strange mist continues to spread and the range keeps expanding... In the end, only a very small number of people will be able to freely travel and explore the ancient path.

The breeze blew, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a dappled pattern. Mu Qing's voice was gentle and full of confidence,

Long Qingyang stood with his hands behind his back, his spiritual will extending and merging with the entire world. His inner world was constantly communicating with the outside, and with a simple gesture, he could summon the mighty Heavenly Might and call forth rolling heavenly thunder with a single thought.

Zi Rixin exclaimed with joy, "One hundred strands are more than enough!"

This made him marvel at Ji Jingqiu's divine art, which was truly unbelievable. Although Ji Jingqiu was not skilled in combat, when it came to various divine anomalies, he had already secured the title of the strongest.

Although her true identity was not from the Federation, her special status and her role in guarding this place for ten thousand years meant that the Federation should treat her with respect. They had already sought the opinions of the Four Divine Lords and were prepared to open a divine seat for her.

Wind and Cloud City.

Zi Rixin smiled and said, "It's not necessary for now. We have the advantage in numbers, and overall, we're still in a better position. As of now, Yang Qu and the others are fighting quite well, and they view this war as a sharpening stone."

Ji Jingqiu understood.

"Not bad. If any of you sense something unusual with your spiritual awareness, it's best to be cautious."

After learning about the peculiarities of the Federation Martial Arts from Long Qingyang, Lu Tong was astonished.

He said, "If you encounter a strong opponent, don't take risks. Wait for me to come out of seclusion. Don't be greedy for achievements. If there's any situation, you can contact me at any time."

Zi Rixin waved her hand and summoned a person, handing him a list to be sent to the forward outpost, letting Sen Luo and the others verify if the people on the list were qualified to receive the Heart Lamp seeds.

"Hmm."

The man didn't pay much attention and quickly memorized the map. He quietly entered the depths of Phantom City, searching for Ji Jingqiu's aura.

The representative from the Heavenly Net Palace left the hall and returned to his residence, entering the lowest level.

With his insight, he immediately saw through the other party's nature, recognizing it as a Divine Form body, and it was even faintly shrouded in a familiar aura.

Zi Rixin said solemnly, "Your seclusion and breakthrough are more important. Currently, we have the upper hand in the battle, but the opponent seems to have two trump cards, so the situation is temporarily at a stalemate."

Although Lu Tong appeared young, his true age was much older than Long Qingyang.

Hearing that several Forbidden Sequences had taken the initiative to request the seeds, Ji Jingqiu had no reason to refuse. He had already planned to start promoting the Heart Lamp seeds on this trip.

You Chengkong shook his head and said, "Brother Tianjun is in a crucial transformation, and will not act unless it's absolutely necessary."

In his past life, as a big player in the catering industry, Jiang Feng always emphasized that the essence of the catering business was service, and the purpose of the service industry was ultimately to get the money out of the other party's pocket.

After the meeting ended,

Long qing yang personally stepped into this passage, representing the Federation, and formally exchanged with the representative of the nine palaces.

"This mind's mechanism is deep, and if I don't act, my next move will certainly be a thunderous strike. We will be cautious in the coming days, trying to coordinate as much as possible to ensure a timely response can be made."

Moreover, do not make it hard for the lone wanderers between the mountains and wilderness, the "scatter cultivators," or seek a seat and the world without contention, just cultivate the path of the warrior.

"Two months of taboo?" This has not been too much of a reverse against the heavens! enough to inscribe the cultivation history of the nine palaces, becoming a record of despair for all to see."

The man they called brother Tian jun, the one who held back last week at a crucial moment to intercept Nosasa and Yang qu's joint action at the dark mansion, whose strength was immeasurable, and identity a puzzle.

You cheng kong only smiled, without revealing anything.

Ji jing qiu thought for a moment, rejecting the suggestion, for he did not like having others wait outside while cultivating.

[These things are not urgent, I've already discussed them with little Zhuang.]



A light sigh, the man stepped deeper into the city, finding the person to respond.

He could communicate with a certain dimension's seat at any time, borrowing the power of a realm for his use.

...

[The heavenly people, regardless of which realm, can be called 'demigod,' with a natural lifespan far beyond a millennium, only the grand universe's rules suppress too harshly. Back then, many forces chose to escape the nine provinces, with this consideration of the truly main higher-ups of the heavenly people above all being the stronger.]



This means that, in the system of the nine provinces' heaven and earth rules, the heavenly martial's lifespan was far beyond a millennium!

Everyone nodded in agreement, at the same time revealing hidden worries, the invasion of the dark sea becoming increasingly severe, an unprecedented matter in history.

On one hand, the enlightenment of the heaven and earth's great way, on the other hand, the injuries from some dao in the past years, after entering the nine provinces, there was a sign of harmony.

It was the true way of the heaven and earth, the unrestrained.

The support person's hand, the establishment of a branch...

"Two days ago, Ji jing qiu appeared in the phantom city, after two months, this person finally appeared, not knowing how much his strength has surged," one person said in a low voice, with a clear hint of hesitation.

He took two months for this trip, calculating the time from stepping on the ancient path to now, half a year's light scenes having passed.

Zi rixin proposed a suggestion.

The heaven's net palace martial nodded without a problem, "There are no issues, the phantom city was once our territory, we still have some presence in the city, and can handle the response."

"Little brother Long, did the Federation martial arts only start at the age of sixteen?"

"Everyone needn't be overly worried, the sun moon alliance is strong, but we may not have a full strength, as long as we drag some time, when the mist shrouds the ancient path, then everyone will be preoccupied with their own concerns, who will have the heart of contention?"

Deep in the city.

Thinking of this, Ji jing qiu couldn't help but feel a bit envious of them.

Long Qing yang's body was followed by the ancient tree gently swaying, answering the doubt.

"Only when I came to the nine provinces did I realize that I have been held in a cage for so long, without freedom."

This half year, Long hu said field after field and continuously had warriors enter this passage, getting a lot of care from the bather.

Everyone looked at Sen lu behind, not knowing when the broad "benevolent" had been hung up.

Zi rixin nodded, "There's a woman powerhouse in the heaven's deity temple, named Chi ji, who has never shown her hand, but according to Jiang tun hai, this person's strength is immeasurable sen lu behind, a smile on his face, 'a forbidden warrior of the tian shen in front of her, taking care of himself!"

"What's behind you?" he stared at the young man's phantom shadow, hesitating for a moment, faintly sensing the light of the young man's phantom shadow, able to wipe him out."

Lu tong laughed loudly:

He had carefully prepared a map for the man, as for the specific move of Ji jing qiu, something he could not have come into contact with the secret.

Calculating the time, he left when he entered the ancient path's first stage.

"That's the bottom card?" ...

He nodded, "On this return trip, I deliberately refined a hundred times, you can take the second generation's heart lamp seed. Additionally, under these second generation's heart lamp seeds, they can coalesce the third generation's heart lamp seed to be taken out."

Sen lu's smile was radiant, he led the way to Jiang tun hai, "the promise to the few heart lamps, then can be followed up."

The heaven's net palace martial slightly frowned, noticing that the temperature here had dropped to at least ten degrees below zero, causing discomfort.

Someone frowned, "If that's the red princess and brother Tian jun, wish to coordinate and we can definitely take down a few forbidden ones from the sun moon alliance."

When discussing the time of this close passage, Ji jing qiu considered for a moment.

The Sun Moon Alliance must act with discretion and not be overly domineering. They should embody compassion and remember the four words, "Invincible Bodhimanda." They must not end up opposing countless ordinary warriors on the Ancient Path.

The warrior frowned, "Did your spirit sense detect something unusual?"

"Alliance Leader, do you want to find a reliable person to stand guard during your seclusion? It would facilitate communication between us."

"As long as Ji Jingqiu appears on the battlefield, His Highness will take action."

Perhaps he could locate Ji Jingqiu's seclusion location through this spirit incarnation.

"In our line of work, we can be passionate, but we must not involve any unnecessary emotions when dealing with customers."

As a peak Heaven and Man, only half a step away from the Grandmaster realm, he had achieved this level in the Grand Universe, but it was far from as effortless and carefree as it seemed now.

Only with pressure could he promote his own transformation.

Deep in the lower levels, a young man with tattoos on his face sat cross-legged, his eyes tightly closed. Behind him stood a transparent phantom with a sinister smile, neither human nor beast, exuding a chilling aura, invisible and formless, causing others to shudder.

This was the Sun Moon Alliance's front-line stronghold.

On the other hand, they were also engaging with the Ten Thousand Phenomena Heavenly Kingdom and other forces.

It was only recently that the passage connecting Dong 3 Huangxing to the Nine Provinces had officially opened for Heaven and Man-level powers to pass through.

Looking back through history, they were all formidable figures, and it was hard to imagine that one day they would gather together to confront a common enemy.

Could this be Ji Jingqiu's spirit incarnation? The man slowly revealed a bizarre smile and quietly followed behind.

[With Ji Jingqiu's potential, he will surely make a name for himself on the Ancient Path.]



Long Qingyang understood that the 'Little Different' mentioned by the other party referred to Zhuang Bu Tong.

"Are you sure you don't need my help?" Ji Jingqiu asked.

"That's right. We received news that he appeared in the Sun Moon Alliance's Phantom City. But he hasn't made any moves yet." The Heavenly Net Palace warrior clenched his teeth, "When will you take action?"

A beautiful girl with a dead fish face, like a rich madam, stared at him intently.

Long Qingyang turned around and respectfully greeted the companion of the Hero General, following proper etiquette.

At this moment...

Jin Chong, Jiang Tunhai, and others, who had broken through the limits on the Ancient Path, were significantly stronger than them, almost a whole level higher.

The man's eyes flashed.

The Great Red Heaven Palace was originally supposed to be under the responsibility of Qian Zhong, but Lu Tong's master insisted on getting involved, claiming that although they were not from the Hero General's lineage, they were still considered senior members of Ji Jingqiu's sect. It would be inappropriate for a junior like Qian Zhong to take charge.

"Brother Qingyang, why don't you come with me to the Great Red Heaven Palace? When the Ancient Path enters its second phase, you can see the trial grounds within the Spirit Realm, which is the final challenge for the Ten Thousand Year Monument. We can go together!"

According to seniority, this person was from the same generation as their Longhu Dojo's founder.

He was already over a thousand years old. If a Heaven and Man warrior did not employ longevity techniques, this age would be close to the normal lifespan limit of a Grand Universe Heaven and Man.

It had been less than a year since he first heard of Ji Jingqiu's name. Back then, Ji Jingqiu was merely a Body Tempering warrior who had not even reached the Heaven and Man realm, and the only remarkable thing about him was his choice of the Ten Thousand Year Blade as his limit-breaking technique.

After their conversation, Ji Jingqiu obtained some beneficial great herbs for body refinement and certain processed medicines derived from heavenly herbs from the Sun Moon Alliance's treasury.

"How much money would it take for you to be mine?"

The update was late again.

For the past six months, news of the passage on Dong 3 Huangxing had been spreading, especially after rumors connected it to the Hero General. Various forces were eager to get involved.

"I have a feeling that someone is secretly watching me," Xuan Ri Xin said with a frown.

"If Elder Mu is willing, the Federation can use the Divine Art to bring you back to the Grand Universe," Long Qingyang said solemnly.

The Ancient Path had been open for six months.

A small tiger cub ran past him and glanced back.

It is said that the heart form cannot be deceived...

This was not only related to the road system but also to racial talents.

Most heavenly herbs had domineering effects, and their potency was not something a Divine Roaming Realm warrior could handle directly. They required refinement and processing.

...

For Forbidden Warriors, it was difficult to find evenly matched opponents in daily life and experience the pressure of life-and-death battles.

Only a few, like the Beast Sea, were still undecided.

The most challenging aspect of the Ancient Path was information transmission. Ji Jingqiu had been out of contact with them for the two months of his journey.

"No need. On this trip back, I plan to go directly to the Sun Moon Plane's 'Floating Cloud' to seclude myself," Ji Jingqiu said. "Is there a need for me to take action in the upcoming battles?"

As expected, within the next two months, the sacred sites in the Far East War Zone would gradually open, marking the official start of the second phase of the Ancient Path. This would lead to the final trial grounds and the challenge for rankings on the Ten Thousand Year Monument.

"Should we call back Sen Luo and the others to meet you?"

A warrior's transformation was not solely about opportunity and fortune but also about experiencing evenly matched battles and life-and-death struggles, leading to a rebirth.

Jiang Feng wrote in his food and beverage journal, "In our line of work, the most taboo thing is to fall in love with a customer."

...

This is a story of rebirth in the food and beverage industry.
