Chapter 475: Imperial Court Assembly Discussions

From this side of the mountain range, Chen Jin combed through everything the whole way. He walked across valleys, crossed over mountain ridges, and turned over mountain tops to arrive at this side.

He found that this side was the “front,” where there was an even more majestic palace. Looking further, he saw the boundless sea. It was a big villa with a sea view, you couldn’t deny it.

Though he had combed through everything as he traveled, he had only gained that one double-edged sword. Those palaces either had magical elixirs or cultivation exercises, but a ban had been placed on them, preventing Chen Jin from taking them. He preferred that there wasn’t anything at all in the first place. Seeing them but not being able to take them; it was very difficult to bear.

He would cut his speech here and fly into the palace.

The palace was very unique, it was much like the kind of houses in southern China. He entered into the grand foyer, then took a turn around a screen to the patio. Behind the patio was another grand foyer, with rooms and kitchens on both sides.

This palace was relatively larger, and upon entering, he could see that it was similarly a great hall too. Inside the hall was a large, open altar. The altar was densely covered with glowing runes that were suddenly bright one moment and dark the next.

However, it had been badly damaged and was no longer whole. The brilliance that was faintly emitted by the runes seemed to be struggling still.

Chen Jin worked his spiritual power, wanting to fly up to get a peep and see what was going on, but he found that his body had become exceptionally heavy. His feet could not leave the ground.

But he experienced no abnormality in walking. There were no problems when he tried hopping and jumping,

He did not know what was happening, but since there was no threat to his safety or his life, he shelved his concern.

Then, he continued to walk inside. It was an ancestral hall, and at the top of the hall, there were a few memorial tablets placed in a scattered manner. Chen Jin did not recognize any of the names on the tablets.

Not only did he not recognize the people, he could not even recognize the script.

Chen Jin had never seen this kind of script before, which meant that there was another civilization here.

However, there was no one here, not even one intelligent life form, only a bunch of animals.

That civilization was either destroyed or they had abandoned this place.

He was not going to think so much about it now, he would take a look at the altar first.

He could not fly in this space, but he could move around, so Chen Jin climbed up the altar.

The entire altar was a circular platform. After climbing up, he could see that part of the platform was badly damaged, and the runes there were melted.

In the middle of the circular platform was a pool of clear water, he described it as a pool of clear water, but in fact, this altar was very big, so the pool was more like a swimming pool.

Chen Jin jumped in even as he was still thinking about it.

He never imagined that a gale would rip through the island at this moment. Spiritual power poured into the altar for a time, and brilliant light erupted from the runes.

The gale stopped in the next moment and the runes dimmed completely.

On the surface, it seemed that nothing happened on the island, but most of the spiritual energy had disappeared.

Chen Jin was in a disaster. He had been sinking further down since jumping into the water. It seems that there was no buoyancy with this water. In his mind, he thought that he was finished. This was impulsive of him. Fortunately, with his cultivation, it was unlikely that he could die from drowning.

As he continued sinking, his surroundings grew increasingly darker. Suddenly, a scene appeared in front of his eyes.

There was a man in white clothing and a high crown on his head. He grasped a double-edged sword in one hand, and a wine gourd in the other as he sat on a pitch-black coffin. The coffin floated on the river, and the man drank as the coffin moved ahead.

The scene quickly disappeared and his surroundings grew dark again.

Then Chen Jin felt the water pressure around him getting heavier. The water seemed to want to drill into his body. His body became hot again. It grew hotter and hotter. He felt as if his clothes had decomposed at the bottom of the pool. Chen Jin’s eyes closed and he passed out.

When he next opened his eyes, he found himself surrounded by trees. He did not know where he was.

He checked himself over. His cultivation had entered a new realm. He was not a Sage anymore. He had no impurities in his body. His whole body was elegant as a jade carving, and he had great depths of spiritual power in his body, it was like a vast, inexhaustible ocean. His very own fundamental essence of life sat with the spirits of heavens.

There were additional memories in his mind, including a method of practice called the Emperor’s Scripture. There was also some general knowledge about cultivation, such as the divisions of the cultivation realms, after which he found out that he had stopped at the Mahayana phase. He would attain immortality in the following phase.

However, becoming an immortal was indeed an extremely difficult task. The most important part of this was Dujie–the process of gaining special powers via cultivation. However, because this is against the Heavens, the cultivator would be struck with disasters. After he rode out the worst of these disasters, he would be able to ascend to the Immortal World.

Chen Jin thought that this was the so-called “inheritance.” He had found a treasure, and he was elated.

He looked at the sky, it was almost dark. He had to find a place to reorganize.

He had just checked the condition of his body. But there was nothing on of his body. He had no clothes or anything like that. There was a sword stuck into the ground beside him and a little monkey sleeping away.

The little monkey had awakened too and it looked around vacant eyes. It found itself in a strange environment. When he saw Chen Jin, its eyes that had dimmed brightened again. Obviously, it knew this unlucky wretch.

The Ancestor of the Wei dynasty changed himself into a stream of light, heading to the forest in the west. There was nothing there. The transmission array was still there, but there were no changes to it. There were no signs of even a single person crossing through the array.

The transmission array could not be used because there was no spiritual power on the other end. Even the Ancestor, with cultivation that was at the pinnacle as a powerful immortal, could not cross over into the other world using the array.

The Ancestor of the Wei dynasty frowned, then turned into a stream of light and left.

After a few days, the young man named Zhang Jin also brought a few men with him here. They left after staying for a few days.

The Wei Ancestor did not say anything when he returned to the palace. He went to the place where he usually secluded himself.

Zhang Jin of the Wu state returned and during court assembly the next morning.

Zhang Jin took a step forward to present his account, “Reporting to Your Majesty, no abnormality has been found in the border between Wu and Wei. I think that it’s only a case of someone with great power passing through, hence causing the spiritual fluctuations of the transmission array.”

“If that is so, then there is no need to take keep an eye on it. Esteemed officials, do you have any documents to present?”

....

“Then I will mention one thing. Yesterday, the messenger from Shu came to confer with me about formalizing the alliance treaty. I strongly agree with this. My esteemed officials, what are your thoughts on this?”

“The land under the Heavens has existed for a hundred years. Today, Wei has nursed the vitality of their state back to health, built up troops and stored up energy. Wei Wudi is ambitious as a wolf. He will undoubtedly raise troops and sent them to the south. The Wu-Shu alliance will certainly be left to their own accord,” The Prime Minister said.

“Also, the Wu State is currently on its third generation of emperors and they are adored by the commoners. Their sects, both large and small agree with us. Every influential family stands united in heart and mind, they are not afraid of Wei,” The head of the Zhou family said.

“The Shu State has fertile land stretching thousands of miles, it is also a rising power. They have several cultivators at the Mahayana phase which means they can go on long campaigns and perfect their warfare. They also train their soldiers with the correct methods. Their Mentors of State are so wise and knowledgeable that they nearly seem to be demons. If we form an alliance with Shu, we will be able to resist Wei!” The head of the Yunxia Sect said.

“Then the matter of the alliance is thus concluded. I will send people on a diplomatic mission to Shu tomorrow. Which of my esteemed officials are willing to go?” The King of Wu asked.

“I recommend someone for this mission. He will achieve success!” The Prime Minister said.

“Who?”

“He is the Director of the Board of Rites, Zhang Jin!”

“Is the esteemed official Zhang willing to do this?”

“I will not disappoint your expectations. I will return with news of success,” Zhang Jin said

“Good.”

......

Besides, Chen Jin went to a small village, and with his Mahayana cultivation, stole a linen garment. Wearing the garment, he could finally walk on the road.

The monkey saw that he was wearing clothes and wanted to wear it too. It grabbed and pulled at Chen Jin with no sign of stopping. What surprised Chen Jin was that this monkey has a Mahayana phase cultivation too. It was no wonder that this monkey appeared to have considerable intelligence. Moreover, it had also gone into that pond of water with Chen Jin and had its essence “washed” and its energy refined.

Hence, we saw a swordsman clad in white and a monkey with golden fur, clad in red walking together on the road. It looked very strange.
