The boundless clouds were torn apart, and a divine rainbow pierced through the endless Void.
Gu Cang stood on it, his figure upright, his eyes deep, his heroic spirit Unrivaled, as if the whole world was at his feet.
He traversed Mountains and Seas in one step, and Time and Space seemed to flow backward. The grand Dao Sound chant resounded throughout the world, like the gods singing, or like the Dao itself rejoicing.
No Dao Monarch Unrivaled more unparalleled than this.
Behind Gu Cang followed a large group of martial arts practitioners.
Some came because of its reputation, hoping to see the Supreme Monarch, while others were just there to join the fun, as they loved gossip all their lives.
Most of the group consisted of martial arts practitioners from Yu Province. They were filled with pride, having come to observe their Monarch perform something of extraordinary significance.
What is it?
Someone couldn't help but ask a question.
"Unseal Three Thousand Solitary Graves!!"
This inside story had already been revealed when Gu Cang set off.
The Three Thousand Islands have been sealed away for thousands of years, becoming a desolate land where spiritual energy and the Dao are destroyed. It is long ago that the Shackles have been broken and the Three Thousand Islands have been given a bright future.
What is meant by "Three Thousand Solitary Graves"?
Compared to the martial arts practitioners of the North Nether, many people in the inland areas pay little attention to the barren lands of the Four Seas, and this is the first time they have heard of such a name.
However, after some knowledgeable people explained it to them, many people finally understood.
"I never imagined that in this brilliant era, there would still be people living in the Age of Doomsday. The Martial Artists there must be powerless against the heavens."
"Yes, to be confined to a small island your whole life, See Heaven and Earth, what a regret."
"Golden Great Era indeed! Many extraordinary talents will surely emerge from these Three Thousand Islands, yet they will be forever regretful, unable to rise to prominence."
A martial arts practitioner from the North Nether sighed with regret.
However, these words did not resonate with the martial arts practitioners in the interior.
It's ultimately a barren land; what kind of unparalleled genius could it produce?
In thousands of years, only Li Buyu and Zhong Shenxiu have emerged, but the latter was a reincarnation of Dao Monarch, so he can only be considered half a native prodigy.
"And then there's Jiang Pingping, who got lost."
The martial arts practitioner from the South Heaven added a sentence, which made the martial arts practitioners from several other places frown.
Who is that?
The martial arts practitioners from the South Heaven were embarrassed. They knew that in the inland areas, Divine Continent was the most prestigious, and people like Li Buyu and Zhong Shenxiu had risen to fame in that region.
Jiang Pingping is only somewhat famous in South Heaven's local area.
"I've heard of him; he's supposedly quite remarkable, but he took the Path of Ten Thousand Laws, and even my elders lamented his fate."
"This is what the martial arts practitioners of Yu Province, which borders South Heaven, said."
"The Path of Ten Thousand Laws? That's quite audacious! Only a martial arts fanatic obsessed with demonic possession would do something like that, just like Lei Fang, who abruptly stopped at a certain stage."
A young man exuding an air of nobility looked on with disdain.
However, the name he mentioned surprised many people.
Lei Fang!
This is an unparalleled genius of the Divine Continent, who has been famous for many years. It is said that he takes the Chaos Sutra as his main scripture and integrates many supreme Dao principles.
"Wasn't it said that he was already Peerless True Saint, with Gu Shuo throughout history, and had the potential to become the only Ten Thousand Laws Dao Monarch?"
"What 'Ten Thousand Laws Dao Monarch's nothing but a reflection in the water and a flower in a mirror. Lei Fang stuck at the Peerless the realm for nearly a hundred years, while his contemporaries have all become Unrivaled Monarch."
The young man shook his head, his tone filled with disappointment.
Lei Fang a god in his time, hailed as the leader of the Divine Continent, with talent unmatched in thousands of years.
But what happened? They became the most successful geniuses, even more so than the less brilliant ones.
Clearly, he was referring to the Void Dao Monarch, a Monarch from the same era as Lei Fang.
At the time, the Void Monarch was not as famous as Lei Fang, but now his achievements far surpass those of the latter.
That's a pity.
Thump!
The Dao Sound spread North Nether, and countless golden lotuses rose from the boundless sea, while Dao flowers bloomed in the sky.
Like a dragon's roar echoing through the heavens, as the emperor toured the land, all the martial arts practitioners of the North Nether were alarmed.
Within a magnificent island.
A beautiful woman in a blue dress gazed at the magnificent scene on the horizon, her face filled with awe.
"Mother!"
Behind her, a lively and energetic-looking woman hurried over, also looked up, and then her face showed surprise:
"Mother, what is this?"
"Dao Monarch!!"
Chen Qingyan spoke with absolute certainty; she was no longer the young woman who had been raising children on Xuanxin Island and Lingchuan Island.
Having lived on an island with a True Saint overseeing it for many years, her knowledge had broadened considerably, and the scene before her was something no True Saint could have created.
At that moment, a noblewoman in white appeared.
"Senior Ye!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Jiang Yirou immediately approached and asked with a face full of curiosity, "Senior Ye, why has this Dao Monarch come to North Nether?"
Chen Qingyan bowed and nodded in return. It was thanks to this person's protection that her family had been able to live peacefully all these years.
Ye Xinyi nodded, then said in a deep voice, "I have already received the news. This Monarch has descended upon North Nether to unseal the Three Thousand Islands. Your homeland will see the light of day again!"
"Unlock the Three Thousand Islands!"
Both mother and daughter were shocked.
Jiang Yirou was overjoyed and couldn't help but exclaim, "I'll get to see all my seniors and old friends from Xuanxin Island!"
Speaking of this, she thought of someone and felt quite resentful. That person had promised to bring his fellow villagers out of the village within twenty years, but the timeframe had passed and nothing had happened.
"Mother, let's go to Xuanxin Island right now!"
Jiang Yirou couldn't wait any longer. Relying on her family's connections and resources, she had already passed the Primordial Spirit Tribulation and was a genuine Spirit Wander Expert.
With such strength, he could easily become king on Xuanxin Island.
That Zhou Tianming of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the former number one on Xuanxin Island, is probably still stuck at the threshold of the Divine Travel stage. She felt she could slap him to death.
The saying goes, "Wealth and honor should not be returned to one's hometown; it is like wearing fine clothes at night." She had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Chen Qingyan was somewhat tempted. Once the Three Thousand Islands were unsealed, although they would see the light again, there would also be dangers, as they would definitely attract some unscrupulous people to the islands to search for treasure.
Her strength is quite good; she has already reached the "Supreme God Riding Light" level after Divine Wandering Sixth Heaven. Although she only Palm Control Dao Light, it is definitely enough for the area around Golden Cloud Island.
Ye Xinyi looked at the mother and daughter who were about to set off and shook her head, saying, "No rush, someone asked you to wait a moment."
"Waiting for whom?"
Jiang Yirou was puzzled, then her pupils contracted and she exclaimed, "Old Father's coming back?"
To be honest, she hadn't seen her father for many years since he went south.
My younger siblings have all passed their coming-of-age ceremony and are almost twenty.
Chen Qingyan suddenly gazed towards the South Heaven, lost in thought.
Soon, her eyes lit up, and a familiar figure gradually became clear.
"Father!"
Jiang Yirou shouted and excitedly ran over.
The King in the Northern Border... her father has returned.
"You're forty years old, why are you still acting like a little girl?"
Jiang Ping looked at his eldest daughter; the girl hadn't changed at all, just like she had back then.
"Father, where is the medicine to unlock my potential?"
Jiang Yirou stretched out her hand, demanding resources on the spot, looking like she wouldn't give up until she got something in return.
Ye Qingyun, standing to the side, had a strange expression. Jiang Ping was quite reserved, and it was said that his wife was also a quiet person, yet they had such an outgoing daughter.
Moreover, the way this father and daughter interact is also peculiar. The father has been away from home for many years, and when he returns, there is no warm greeting. Instead, he immediately asks "Old Deng" to give him a lot of gold coins.
"No rush. When we return to South Heaven, you'll have plenty of Martial Dao supplies."
Jiang Ping smiled.
In fact, in recent years, he has also asked people to send bone-strengthening medicine to several children.
This is also why the eldest daughter was able to reach the Spirit Wander Realm so quickly.
"South Heaven! Qingling Palace!"
Jiang Yirou was overjoyed; she had long wanted to go to the inland areas.
But my Old Father rejected the request several times, so now I can finally go.
It is said that the Eight Lands are the center of the world, a paradise for martial arts practitioners, teeming with countless geniuses and a gathering place for heroes...
Jiang Ping walked past his daughter and toward his wife.
Chen Qingyan also came over, saying little, only softly, "It's good that you're back."
The couple didn't exchange many words; everything was understood without being spoken.
Jiang Ping asked, "Where are Xiao Hao and Ayao?"
"These two children are still in seclusion; I will summon them here immediately."
Ye Xinyi, standing to the side, said with a smile.
Unlike the outgoing and sociable Jiang Yirou, Jiang Hao and Jiang Yao are both very down-to-earth.
Jiang Yao, in particular, was very diligent in her cultivation and, more importantly, possessed an exceptionally high aptitude. Even she was secretly astonished and had considered taking her as a disciple several times.
However, since that person's father was Jiang Ping, she had no choice but to abandon such thoughts and dare not overstep her bounds.
"Senior Ye!"
Jiang Ping solemnly performed the junior's greeting.
To be honest, when he first set foot in this place, he didn't dare to meet the other party.
Later, they provoked a powerful enemy, and it was only through the protection of this True Saint of Cause and Effect that their family survived the most difficult time.
He was still very grateful to the other party.
Jiang Ping walked over, now holding a weapon in his hand.
"True Saint Artifact!"
Jiang Yirou was also very knowledgeable and immediately recognized that this item was extraordinary.
Ye Xinyi was also greatly shocked. She was just an ordinary True Saint, while the artifact that Jiang Ping gave her contained more than 90% of the Origin Laws.
And it's the law of Causality!!
For her, this was not only a wonderful weapon for defending against enemies, but also helpful for her cultivation.
"This gift is too precious!"
Ye Xinyi's eyes held a complex expression, and she hesitated.
Jiang Ping smiled and said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation, nothing to mention. Please accept it, senior."
Back on the Moon Star, he killed Wei Huaide and obtained a Cause and Effect Artifact. At that time, he wanted to prepare such an artifact for this senior.
Of course, it wasn't that ancient zither. That zither came from the Wendaomeng, and if it were given to Ye Xinyi, it would surely attract murderous intent. He had already sold it to the Qingling Palace and re-collected the weapon he had now, which was a Turtle Shell. Its design was very similar to the old Turtle Shell in his ring.
"Father, do you have any weapons for your daughter?"
Jiang Yirou's eyes burned with desire; she also wanted a special item to show off to her friends and make a name for herself.
Sulfuric acid!
Jiang Ping drew an ancient-looking sword and handed it over, saying, "If you can make this sword recognize you as its master, I'll give it to you."
"Don't want!"
The Life-Death Sword immediately disagreed.
This little girl is somewhat lacking in talent.
Jiang Yirou completely ignored the resistance of the Life-Death Sword, and instead stared in disbelief, stunned into a daze.
An object that can speak!
Artifact Spirit?
Supreme Dao Soldier?!
"Monarch weapon!"
Ye Xinyi felt a chill run down her spine. A terrifyingly Supreme Artifact had been casually given to her daughter, who was just beginning her journey into the Divine Realm?
Jiang Yirou realized what was happening, then her face fell. It seemed that Senior Sword had disliked her?!
"That girl is quite good, Little Jiang. I'll take charge of teaching her!"
The Life-Death Sword suddenly spoke, its words more numerous than ever before.
"Father."
In the distance, a cool and aloof young woman in a black dress appeared; it was none other than the youngest daughter Jiang Yao.
She has grown into a beautiful young woman, and her abilities surpass those of her Peers.
"Little Jiang, your genes are quite good; you're a promising candidate for Dao Monarch!"
The Turtle Shell also appeared, landing on Jiang Ping's head.
Jiang Ping was somewhat surprised. To receive praise from the old tortoise, one must at least be a peerless genius with exceptional talent like Fang Xinli.
