After Jiang Zongheng left Duan Shuyu behind to wrap things up, he led Han Ronglu towards the capital of the dynasty.
“Uncle Master Jiang, the jade slip with the Hidden Dragon Pill was appraised by this prince.”
At this moment, Han Ronglu saw Zhao Gui not far away and recalled that he also had a share in the credit, so he spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zongheng waved to Zhao Gui, who immediately came over and performed a grand salute: “Prince Zhao Gui greets Grandmaster Jiang!”
“Come back with us; it has been a long time since I last saw His Majesty.”
Speaking thus, Jiang Zongheng waved his sleeve lightly, and a verdant leaf, like a flying boat, fell to the ground and expanded. Under Han Ronglu’s guidance, Zhao Gui trembled as he stepped onto it.
The capital, the royal palace!
The once young and vigorous King Zhao now had a head full of white hair. Upon seeing Jiang Zongheng, he personally led his ministers to welcome him.
After the formalities, only two remained in the grand hall.
“Grandmaster, it has been a long time. You haven’t changed at all.”
King Zhao spoke with emotion upon seeing Jiang Zongheng, whose appearance was unchanged with no sign of aging.
“Your Majesty is also as impressive as ever.”
Jiang Zongheng responded with polite small talk, then took out the Jade Scroll Scripture obtained from the cave and spoke of his findings.
Due to the complexity of the matters of the Eastern Emperor Court, he didn’t mention them to King Zhao, only saying it was indeed something left by a cultivator that might be useful to the Five Elements Sect, so it needed to be taken back.
“Thank you for your hard work, Grandmaster.”
King Zhao listened with a smile on his face.
He was the one closest to the Five Elements Sect in the mortal dynasty. After all, being the great king, if something arose in the Eastern Wilderness Domain that the ordinary could not resolve, he would inform Jiang Zongheng immediately.
This time, it was the same. As soon as Zhao Gui’s people took out the items from the cave, King Zhao received the news and dispatched his army to surround it, then notified Jiang Zongheng.
Because he alone understood how terrifying cultivators could be to mortals.
If a cave dwelling left by a demon path cultivator were to fall into the hands of ignorant mortals, it would indeed lead to endless trouble.
“Your Majesty, stay; I’ll first return to Northern Abyss.”
Jiang Zongheng rose to take his leave, but King Zhao escorted him to the main gates.
“Grandmaster, I feel my body failing, yet this vast land still weighs on my mind. I wonder if the Immortal Sect could grant some elixirs for prolonging life or even a cultivation technique?”
Just about to leave, Jiang Zongheng paused upon hearing King Zhao’s words, looked back at him, and saw that the once resolute young man’s skin was now loose and spotted, with only his eyes still hinting at the vigor of his youth.
Indeed, it was the sign of approaching life’s end.
“Your Majesty, birth and death are part of the Great Tao. Even for us cultivators, there comes a day of aging and death. But the Great Zhao Dynasty you established is an immortal monument over the years of the Eastern Wilderness, making your name already a part of eternity.”
Jiang Zongheng gently conveyed the message, and King Zhao understood, sighing as his once upright back bent.
Jiang Zongheng left behind a bottle of elixirs to regulate elemental energy, then rode the leaf flying boat, departing from above the capital.
A half-hour later, once the sky no longer bore any trace of Jiang Zongheng, King Zhao slowly turned back to his throne in the grand hall.
After another incense stick’s worth of time, a tall, square-faced black-robed cultivator silently entered the grand hall.
“Immortal Master Mu, just as you predicted!”
Upon seeing the black-robed cultivator, King Zhao spoke with a face full of sorrow.
“The Five Elements Sect only needs an obedient mortal dynasty; who sits on the throne doesn’t matter. If you die, your son, being even more obedient, naturally won’t be taught the cultivation method.”
The black-robed cultivator, named Mu Xiaotian, was an East Dawn Demon Dao cultivator. Following a treasure map obtained as a rogue cultivator, he ventured across the East Continent, risking his way to the Eastern Wilderness to find that cave dwelling.
Though there were restrictions there, they had become damaged over the long years, allowing easy entry.
But Mu Xiaotian was greatly disappointed with what he found inside. Over the ages, all elixirs and magic artifacts had weathered away, rendered unusable.
The treasure cauldron was decent, having only fallen from Rank-4 to Rank-3, but to activate and control it, the Eastern Emperor Court’s cultivation technique was required.
There was indeed a cultivation technique on the Jade Scroll Scripture, known as the renowned “Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture.”
Though incomplete, it could still allow cultivation to the Nascent Soul Realm.
Yet, he couldn’t practice it and wouldn’t choose to convert to it.
Back when the Eastern Emperor Court declined, it was the Demon Path that struck mercilessly. The Holy Land at least maintained the righteous path’s facade, merely assisting the Dao Morale Sect in slaying the dragon. The Demon Path, however, spared no effort, seeking to exterminate the bloodline descendants of the Eastern Emperor Court, fearing the emergence of another Human Emperor who could suppress the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, subduing all demons and monsters.
Nevertheless, Mu Xiaotian wasn’t without gain; he found bones within the cauldron and a peculiarly shaped jade pendant.
Its grade was unclear, but after the long ages, the jade pendant still emitted a faint halo, signaling its mysterious and extraordinary nature. He cautiously used a puppet to remove the jade pendant, placing it into a storage bag, planning to have it appraised by an expert at an upcoming exchange meeting.
