Chapter 266

Qin Jiang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, but without the Dao Lands included, it couldn't be considered too outrageous.

However, he always felt that the Imperial Ancestor Emperor was still being modest; I am afraid that among the Dao Lands, not to mention controlling a few, at least a few are on good terms with the Imperial Ancestor Dynasty.

And the most interesting point is whether these Immortal Sects know about the Imperial Ancestor Emperor's plan.

He re-examined the Imperial Ancestor Emperor; achieving this step in his mouth is no longer something that can be done by the Imperial Ancestor Dynasty having a deep foundation.

By comparison, I am afraid that even some Immortal Kings in ancient history could not do this during their Immortal Monarch period.

"Fellow Daoist is a great talent, Qin admires you," he said with a smile.

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor looked at Qin Jiang, seemingly not getting the answer he wanted.

"Fellow Daoist, what I said is true. All these years, although I have expanded the number of Heavenly Soldiers on a large scale, it is not to dominate the world, but because I am afraid of dying in this Difu catastrophe.

In fact, I have already arranged for the aftermath; if I die, the Imperial Teacher will assist Mingluo in ascending the throne.

Although Mingluo's methods are a bit radical, the troubled times are coming, and perhaps it is indeed time to use heavy codes.

However, after he ascends the throne, perhaps he will change like me."

Qin Jiang did not speak upon hearing this, and after a moment of silence, he nodded slightly. "Since this is the case, then you can take the five dragon scale arts and use them."

People cannot stand from the perspective of later generations to judge those who stand in the past. The vision of the Imperial Ancestor Emperor has already crossed eras.

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor showed joy upon hearing this and bowed heavily to Qin Jiang. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist."

Standing up, he sat directly on the ground, put the dragon spear aside, and with a casual wave, a stone low table appeared in front of him.

Tea was placed on the low table, still steaming.

"I have heard that Fellow Daoist likes tea; this was personally planted by the Ancestor King, although it is a mortal product, it is stained with a trace of Immortal King aura."

Qin Jiang also sat down and took a light sip of the tea.

Bitter, very bitter.

"Fellow Daoist, I still have one thing I want to ask Fellow Daoist for advice, it is about the Eastern Tour," the Imperial Ancestor Emperor said.

Qin Jiang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this; the Eastern Tour was a joint effort of the Imperial Ancestor Dynasty and the Linglong Dao Land, what is there to ask him for advice?

"Fellow Daoist, please speak."

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor nodded and looked directly at Qin Jiang. "Does Fellow Daoist know the true purpose of the Eastern Tour?"

True purpose?

Qin Jiang put down the teacup. "Isn't it the opportunity to break through to the Immortal King?"

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor shook his head with a smile. "Not so, the true purpose of the Eastern Tour is to let the Imperial Zuxian King reappear in the world."

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Let the Imperial Zuxian King reappear in the world? You mean, the Imperial Zuxian King is dead?"

"I don't know, but every generation of Emperors will know one thing after contacting the Imperial Ancestor Immortal Seal, and that is: the Heavenly Mandate descends, the Ancestor King collapses."

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor said; in fact, at the beginning, he didn't believe it, but after the Heavenly Mandate person was born, the Imperial Ancestor Immortal Seal seemed to fall into silence, sitting quietly in the Ancestral Temple.

This abnormal phenomenon, whether he believes it or not, the Eastern Tour must begin.

"This matter is known to few, except for the Imperial Teacher and Linglong Xianjun, and now only I and Fellow Daoist know it, so please don't spread it outside."

If people know that the Imperial Zuxian King is dead, the Imperial Ancestor Dynasty might have a major crisis in the future.

Qin Jiang nodded slightly. "That is to say, the opportunity for the Imperial Zuxian King to reappear in the world lies in this Heavenly Mandate person?"

"Not bad, that's exactly it. However, the so-called Heavenly Mandate person is not Tang Sanzang, but Sun Wukong; he is the true Heavenly Mandate person."

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor revealed this secret; if the Immortal Sects on the continent knew this, they would probably be so angry that their teeth would itch, wishing they could drag Tang Sanzang over and beat him up.

"It's Sun Wukong? The root of intention, is it the root of intention, right? What did the Imperial Zuxian King leave behind? The root of intention that Sun Wukong lacks will be completed by what the Imperial Zuxian King left behind after the Eastern Tour.

At that time, there will be no more Sun Wukong, only the newly born Imperial Zuxian King suppressing the world."

Qin Jiang suddenly realized; at this moment, he finally figured it out. No wonder when he observed the master and apprentice, only Sun Wukong gave him a weird feeling.

It turns out the root is here; Sun Wukong himself is actually just a container for the Imperial Zuxian King to live another life.

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor's face changed drastically upon hearing this. "Fellow Daoist, you! You!"

He didn't know what to say; back at Heifeng Ling, this guy had stripped the master and apprentice of their bottoms, right?

Picking up the teapot and drinking it like a cow, he gulped down a few mouthfuls, his face changed slightly, and he remembered that this was a pot of bitter tea.

Planted by an Immortal King, even if it is a mortal product, it is by no means something an ordinary True Immortal can bear.

Enduring the bitterness in his mouth, he said, "It is indeed as Fellow Daoist said. However, there is one point that is not the same.

After they arrive at the Linglong Dao Land, Linglong Xianjun will use the secret artifact left by the Ancestor King to enlighten Sun Wukong.

This secret artifact has always existed in the Eastern Region; even I don't know where it is or what it is.

It was not until Linglong Xianjun opened up the Dao Land that this secret artifact was obtained by her.

Back then, when I wanted to flatten the Five Domains, it was she who found me with a stone box containing the Ancestor King's secret artifact, and I gave up the idea of flattening the Five Domains.

Because once the enlightenment is successful with the secret artifact, Sun Wukong will become the new generation of Imperial Zuxian King, rather than the rebirth of the Ancestor King.

The Ancestor King's life... uh, there is no record of the Ancestor King's life, but since you have already read the Immortal King Scripture, you should know the character of the Ancestor King; he would never do the act of seizing a body to be reborn."

Qin Jiang was stunned upon hearing this, and then nodded slowly. "Indeed, the Great Wind Book is the orthodox path; if one seizes a body to be reborn, the Dao heart will collapse."

As he spoke, he looked at the Imperial Ancestor Emperor. "So, what does Fellow Daoist want to ask for advice?"

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor slightly withdrew his gaze upon hearing this, looking at Qin Jiang with an inexplicable smile.

"I want to become the new Imperial Zuxian King."

Qin Jiang's pupils shrank. "Are you sure? One wrong move and the whole game is lost; are you willing? With your aptitude, you may not have no chance to attain the Dao in the future."

Even if it is only his strength on the surface, the Imperial Ancestor Emperor is already one of the top Immortal Monarchs in millions of years, not to mention that the other party also secretly condensed an Immortal King Body.

His strength is definitely one of the top existences below the Immortal King since near-ancient times.

Even some Immortal Kings might not be better than the Imperial Ancestor Emperor during their Immortal Monarch period.

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor shook his head gently. "The Central Origin Continent... no, the vast starry sea is really too big; it is difficult to reach even if I exhaust my life.

Only an Immortal King, only by becoming an Immortal King can I do it. And I have no more time to wait.

The Difu catastrophe is approaching; just this Huangtian Shenmu that has not fully revived is already beyond my power, if it fully erupts, who knows what monsters will jump out?

At that time, if there is no Immortal King power, how can I protect the people of this vast territory?"

"Sun Wukong is too young; if he goes straight to the Supreme Realm of the Immortal King, no one can guarantee whether he will act willfully.

The willfulness of an Immortal King is destructive to the continent.

Only I have the opportunity to seize this Immortal King position with the Ancestor King's bloodline."

If time moved forward a few thousand years, he would not do this, and even, he would not have this idea after seeing Yan Jibai.

But now it is different; with the Dragon Scale Art, he has already seen that future, and he will not allow anyone to obstruct its arrival, even if it is only possible.

Qin Jiang remained silent upon hearing this, and only spoke after a moment. "I will not help you, but I will not stop you either."

The Imperial Ancestor Emperor laughed loudly upon hearing this. "Haha! That's enough! If that little monkey really has the ability, I am not someone who can't afford to lose!"
