Chapter 531: Reflecting the Past, Present, and Future
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For the past 10 years, Jiang Changsheng had not seen the master of Kunlun Valley, Jiang Xun’s son. However, when he first arrived, the fox demon clearly said that her master wanted to see him, but later on, he said that he was in seclusion. He guessed that something had happened midway that made the master of Kunlun Valley change his mind.
Nothing unexpected happened for the next ten years. Jiang Changsheng’s life was very peaceful, and there were no incidents of him being bullied by older geniuses. The children here were all from the Jiang Clan, and they all bore the heavy responsibility of reviving the Jiang Clan. They did not have the time to bully their people.
Thanks to his experience in reality, Jiang Changsheng’s speed of stepping into the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body Technique was even faster.
However, without the quenching of natural treasures, his current Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body was far inferior to his original body. However, compared to the immortal cultivators in the mortal world, he was already a human-shaped magical treasure with boundless strength and magic
power.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng, who was cultivating in his room, heard the bell of Kunlun Valley.
He immediately stood up and walked out of the wooden house. Sunlight sprinkled down. At the age of seventeen, he had already grown into his original appearance. He had a handsome face and looked in high spirits. Even though he was wearing cloth clothes, it could not hide his extraordinary bearing.
The other Jiang clansmen came out of the surrounding wooden houses and pavilions one after another. Unknowingly, Jiang Changsheng had become the oldest disciple.
All the disciples who had reached the age of 16 were either taken away to continue their cultivation or brought back to the human world by Jiang San and the other adopted sons of Kunlun Valley. Jiang Changsheng was special, so he was held back for an additional year.
Dozens of disciples came to the empty space in the center of the valley and all of them stood in a line. Jiang Changsheng stood at the leftmost side of the first row with a straight posture, attracting the attention of all the girls. Even though they were all from the Jiang Clan, Jiang Changsheng’s appearance was the most beautiful. Even the girls could not compare to him.
After a while, the fox demon descended from the sky. Just as she landed, another figure landed. This person wore a green Daoist robe and looked to be in his early forties. The strands of hair on his temples were slightly messy, and the long hair under the jade crown was black and white. His entire person seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of life.
“Let me introduce you. This is my master, the master of Kunlun Valley. You can call him the Kunlun Immortal.”
The fox demon introduced with a smile. As she spoke, she quietly approached the Kunlun Immortal.
The Kunlun Immortal was expressionless as he sized up all the children present. In the end, his gaze landed on Jiang Changsheng for a few seconds.
“You, you…”
The Kunlun Immortal raised his horsetail whisk and started to point. The first one to be pointed at was Jiang Changsheng.
He selected a total of five people and asked them to step aside.
Jiang Changsheng was very calm while the other four were very excited. This meant that they had passed and their years of bitter cultivation had been recognized.
“Everyone else, prepare to pack your bags and go home.”
The Kunlun Immortal calmly said. As soon as he said that, the remaining dozens of teenagers and young ladies exploded in anger and asked why. After all, most of them were not even sixteen years old yet. There were even two children who had only been here for less than half a year.
The fox demon also looked at the Kunlun Immortal in surprise.
The Kunlun Immortal said, “There’s a change in the plan. The existence that chased after the Jiang Clan has started to take action again. Even the previous Immortal Emperor of the Jiang Clan was severely injured by that existence. Next, I will erase your memories and seal your bloodline. From now on, you will be mortals.”
After hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Jiang Changsheng was curious. Who severely injured Jiang Nun?
The Kunlun Immortal stepped forward and began to erase their memories one by one. The young men and women he cast spells on fell unconscious one after another.
Not long after, the Kunlun Immortal turned around and left.
“The five of you, follow me.”
Jiang Changsheng and the others immediately followed. They walked into the depths of the valley. This was originally a restricted area, and the fox demon had forbade them from going here.
Passing through the winding mountain road, they came to a teleportation formation. The stone formation was broken and there were fallen leaves piled up around it. It was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time.
The Kunlun Immortal did not say anything and waved for Jiang Changsheng and the rest to follow him into the formation.
He waved his horsetail whisk and cast a spell. Spiritual energy descended and the stone formation was activated. A ray of light rose and shot into the sky. Jiang Changsheng and the rest suddenly felt weightless and their vision blurred.
About ten breaths later, they finally felt that everything had returned to normal. Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and looked over. What he saw was a magnificent world. The sky was high and the clouds were beautiful. Immortal cranes lined up in rows, and the continuous mountains undulated like the back of an azure dragon. They stood on the top of a mountain range, and the wind and grass made him feel relaxed and happy.
“Waa…”
A burly young man like a bear could not help but vomit on the ground. The other three were not much better. Only Jiang Changsheng and the Kunlun Immortal were unaffected.
The Kunlun Immortal shot him a glance and said, “Your Golden Body Art has reached the small success stage?”
The moment he said that, the other four turned to look at Jiang Changsheng in surprise. The oldest among them was only fifteen years old, and the youngest was twelve years old. They thought that they were geniuses for being able to master the Golden Core Art in advance, but they did not expect someone to have mastered the more difficult Golden Body Art. No wonder this person could stay in Kunlun Valley for another year.
The Golden Body Art was the most difficult of the three cultivation techniques. All of them cultivated the Golden Core Art, but they did not expect someone to successfully cultivate the Golden Body Art.
“I guess so,” Jiang Changsheng answered.
He was not cultivating the Golden Body Art, but the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body Technique!
The Kunlun Immortal added, “This is the land of the Jiang Clan, and it is the inner world of Immortal Emperor Jiang Xun. You don’t have to worry about your safety here. You can cultivate wholeheartedly here. Let’s go, I’ll bring you to your residence.”
With a wave of his hand, a gourd flew out from his sleeve and rapidly expanded. Following that, he waved his horsetail whisk and brought Jiang Changsheng and the others to land on the gourd, causing the other four young men and young ladies to shout.
The gourd flew at high speed and flew past the mountains. Jiang Changsheng saw many people meditating and cultivating in various places. Some were also cultivating spells. It was as if they had come to the land of immortals, making the other four descendants of the Jiang Clan excited. On the other hand, Jiang Changsheng felt lonely.
The strength of the Jiang clansmen here were not high, and their numbers were not as many as Heavenly Jing’s Jiang Clan.
“Immortal, are we the only ones left in the Jiang Clan? Are there any branches of the Jiang Clan still left outside?” Jiang Changsheng asked, interrupting the other four’s excitement.
A complicated expression appeared on the Kunlun Immortal’s face as he sighed and said, “Since you’ve already entered here, I’ll tell you more cruel facts. A long time ago, the Jiang Clan controlled the myriad worlds. Tens of thousands of immortals worshiped the Jiang Clan, and they only had themselves as their opponents at their peak. For example, our Immortal Emperor Jiang Xun was once chased by some Jiang clansmen. Perhaps it was because the Jiang Clan was too powerful that the heavens were jealous of them. Later on, a Heavenly Devil appeared and devoured many experts of the Jiang Clan, obtaining unprecedented good fortune. After that, he established the Heavenly Devil Clan and hunted down the Jiang Clan without restraint. Only our branch of the Jiang Clan was left in the myriad worlds. Right now, the Heavenly Devil race is still chasing after us.”
A young lady could not help but ask, “The Jiang Clan is already in such a sorry state, so why is the Heavenly Devil race still chasing after us? Are they afraid that we will take revenge?”
The Kunlun Immortal shook his head and said, “That is only one of the reasons. What they are afraid of is the power behind the Jiang Clan.”
“The power behind the Jiang Clan?”
Everyone was puzzled.
The Kunlun Immortal piloted the gourd and looked into the distance, his eyes filled with melancholy.
“Legend has it that the ancestor of the Jiang Clan was the Ancestor of All
Immortals, the Dao Ancestor who founded the Immortal Dao. The Dao Ancestor transcended everything and had tens of thousands of dharma bodies that reflected the past, present, and future. No one could find him. Not only the Dao Ancestor, but there was also the Heavenly Court. Another ancestor of the Jiang Clan was the leader of the Heavenly Court and was respectfully known as the Celestial Emperor. However, the Heavenly Court had ascended a long time ago and cut off contact with the Jiang Clan. The Heavenly Devil Race is afraid that the Heavenly Court and the Dao Ancestor will find out about this, so they want to eradicate us all.”
Jiang Changsheng frowned. He was attracted by a sentence from the Kunlun Immortal.
Tens of thousands of dharma bodies that reflected the past, present, and future?
Somehow, he seemed to have grasped something, but he could not think of anything when he thought about it carefully.
He felt that he had grasped the mystery of the time and space predicament he was in.
The other four were immersed in the powerful history of the Jiang Clan. They did not even know how big this world was for mortals like them. They did not know how vast the myriad worlds were. Moreover, how powerful was that illusory Dao Ancestor? However, when they heard the words of the Kunlun Immortal, flames still ignited in their hearts.
Their family clan was so powerful. How could it be destroyed in their generation?
Along the way, the Kunlun Immortal recounted the strength of the Jiang Clan in the past. They mainly relied on the imperial bloodline and were supplemented by countless branches. They spanned across countless realms and were practically an absolute overlord. However, even so, the Jiang Clan had fallen to this point.
However, they did not despair. According to the Perfected One, the Heavenly Devil had absorbed the flesh and blood of an expert from the imperial bloodline. That was why he possessed terrifying strength that could suppress everything. Even so, their ancestor, Immortal Emperor Jiang Xun, could
contend against him.
Over the long years, Immortal Emperor Jiang Xun had fought with that Heavenly Devil countless times. However, the latter lost more than he won. It seemed embarrassing, and it had become a thorn in the Heavenly Devil’s heart that he could not pull out.
An hour later, Jiang Changsheng was arranged to stay in a courtyard. The conditions here were much better than in Kunlun Valley.
He did not delay any longer and soon began to meditate.
According to the Kunlun Immortal, very few people could master the Golden Body Art that he had cultivated. In the future, the Jiang Clan would provide him with an endless stream of body tempering treasures so that he could cultivate in peace.
At night.
The Kunlun Immortal walked into a hall. He came to the steps and looked at a figure sitting on a lotus throne.
“Father, the lineage I taught has returned. There are five people in total, and one of them has even mastered the Golden Body Art.”
The Kunlun Immortal said. He frowned and his face was filled with concern and worry.
“Oh? What’s his name? I’ll remember it.
An old and weak voice sounded. It was from the father of the Kunlun Immortal, Immortal Emperor Jiang Xun.
Even though he could not see his true appearance, his figure was hunched like a candle in the wind.

“His name is Jiang Qian. He is only 17 years old this year, and he has a good temperament. No one can compare to him among this batch of disciples,” the Kunlun Immortal answered.
As soon as he said that, Jiang Xun trembled and coughed violently.
The Kunlun Immortal hastily asked, “Father, are you alright? Do you need me to call Eldest Brother and the rest to treat your injuries?”
“There’s no need. They were also severely injured in the previous battle with the Heavenly Devils. There’s no need to trouble them. I just remembered an old friend and was a little excited,” Jiang Xun stabilized his body and answered in a trembling voice.
The Kunlun Immortal frowned and said, “You mean the mysterious clansman who taught you Divine Powers? It was also because of this name that I observed him more and discovered that he is indeed more mature than his peers. He has been extraordinary since he was young. However, he is still a child after all and is just using his name..”
