Chapter 181: Towards Cangwu
hed, "To Vie for Me!"He is Zhu Wei!This gun, the one known throughout Qinghe County as the Burning-Through Gun.The bear let out a strange, mournful howl, and suddenly, blood welled up in its eyes.From...Since ancient times, fame and objects have always been in the hands of cultivators. A gentleman is adept at using things, but they are not the fundamental essence.
All cultivators can nurture weapons, and powerful warriors often carry their own weapons that grow with them, gaining formidable power.

For instance, Jiang Wang's sword was first forged in Nan Yao City, initially showcasing the magnificence of a renowned artifact. However, as he grew alongside it over time, bathed in divine light day and night, enduring countless battles large and small, it has long since transcended its former self.

At first, the longing could have easily been shattered in the battle of divine descent. But today's longing can withstand the divine powers of the Ten Thousand Sword Techniques. Jiang Wang persevered and truly fought like a demon!
Today's longing for the past is no longer based on the materials collected by Jian Que in the beginning. Its essence lies in the sword master's will and spirit, accumulated day and night, in every detail shared with Jiang Wang, and in the ever-ascending memories of their journey together.
But speaking of which, even if Jiang Wang lost Chang Xiangsi, he would still be a peerless genius, the Marquis of Daqi. If Chang Xiangsi left Jiang Wang, she would gradually fade away with the passage of time, returning to an ordinary cultivator. She would need another cultivator to nurture her before she could once again shine brightly.
It's not just that Jiang Wangzhi's weaponry is so impressive.
Just like "普度", in Huangsheli's hands and in Huangfu's hands, there is a fundamental difference. Even the weapons of true immortals, once they leave their master, will gradually be eroded by time. Because the way of the instrument has been shattered! How can the Saha Dragon Staff be any exception

Because it belongs to the power beyond transcendence, it is already an instrument beyond transcendence!
At the pinnacle, transcending all. All worldly rules can no longer bind it.
Only such a magnificent transcendence artifact could make the Saha Realm remain unbreakable for hundreds of thousands of years. It is not an ordinary world at all. To truly destroy the Saha Realm, one must break the Saha Dragon Staff.
This staff transforms into a domain, suppressing the terror of the Illusory Realm for hundreds of thousands of years. It's truly awe-inspiring. Jiang Wang suppressed the shock in his heart and asked, "Compared to the World Honored One, how powerful is this Heavenly Buddha"
Yu Liyang said: "The level at the peak is beyond my judgment. But I think he and the World Honored One are not fundamentally different. The so-called 'Heavenly Buddha' is one who has reached the end of the word 'Buddha,' a position that the World Honored One can reach, and he can also reach it, which is called 'being on par with Heaven,' hence the title 'Heavenly Buddha.' Moreover, when he became a Heavenly Buddha, the war between the Human Emperor and the Dragon Emperor had not yet begun."
The unexpressed meaning in this Peach Blossom Fairy tale is that the existence written as "Dragon Buddha" in human history has a clear growth later... truly a terrifyingly powerful being!

Jiang Wang asked again: "Why is the Heavenly Buddha's weapon here Why was it born in the Dragon Domain"
"Like a sword in its sheath, it is both slow to the enemy and a tool for honing. " Elder Yu Liyang, with an air of profound wisdom, spoke softly, "This time, it was forced out prematurely, losing the advantage and wasting millennia... Step back."
As he spoke, with a sweep of his sleeve, the entire army and himself retreated thirty miles. Luckily, the "Jia You Battlefield" had already been cleared, so there was no obstruction to their vision. The Saha Dragon Staff on the other side of the river bank was still very conspicuous, firmly occupying people's field of vision.
Suddenly, Jiang looked out at the riverbank and realized what was so jarring.
With a single gesture from Yu Liyang, all three armies retreated, leaving only Cao Jie and the other three True Lords standing alone before the Boundary River. Jiang Wang looked at Yu Liyang with a questioning gaze.

"The sky is falling, a man's height tall." Yu Liyang didn't turn his head and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll stay here to protect you." Jiang Wang: ...
Yu Liyang said that the Shambhala Dragon Staff transforming into the Shambhala Dragon Realm was like a sword in its sheath. Just as a sword drawn from its sheath must be stained with blood, so too is the Shambhala Dragon Staff being forced out…
Therefore, Jiang Wang completely understood where Yu Liyang's "protection" came from. It's just that this Yu Shangqing was protecting himself or himself, it's hard to say for sure.
As they were speaking, change was taking place.
Please note that I only translated the content within the tags and left the HTML tags as they were.
Within that immense void, beside the ancient Shambhala Dragon Staff as if it had stood there since time immemorial, a hand appeared.
With five fingers spread, hold this staff upright.
When this hand fits perfectly with the vertical lines of the dragon staff, grasping this ancient silver staff, the crowned and robed Xuan Shen Emperor Ruichong appears in people's vision with incomparable clarity.

Although Xuan Shen Huangzhu was a powerful practitioner of the Dao, after all, she had been a descendant of the dragon race. After Tai Yong's death and disappearance, she became the most suitable person to wield this staff. At this moment, she held the staff, suspended in mid-air, like a holy maiden from the ancient times, walking out of the depths of time. For a moment, she stood alone, seemingly controlling the entire labyrinth!
...and behind her, the emperors Wu'an, Chimei, and Dayu, Zhongxi, stood in a line.
Though Xiyang had previously retreated after being gravely injured, and Zhongjia had almost been killed, the peak-level experts, after a brief moment of recovery, regained their boundless strength. With this respite, their injuries couldn't be healed, but they had recovered some of their combat power.
At this moment, the stars gathered around the moon, revealing infinite power.
Rui Chong spoke in a low, solemn voice, as if offering a devout prayer at some formal ceremony: "The heavens are old and the gods waning, life is long but love short. A fleeting century, how fragile it is!"
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Her hand gripping the staff was torn by tree veins, blood flowing through her fingers, winding along the staff.
She raised the dragon staff high, her voice growing louder, then filled with sorrow like a dragon's cry: "Descendants of little merit, disturbing ancestral artifacts. I pray with this staff, to punish those who come as enemies!" An ancient aura was spreading.
The colorful, all-dissolving river of boundaries, at this moment, also ceased flowing. The Ji You boundary domain trembled!
No, the entire ignorant and unknowing realm that encompasses countless battles, has fallen into great terror!
An indescribable terror, from across the river, thirty miles from the bank, with five true monarchs in between, caused Jiang Wang, even at such a distance, to feel his Dao Yuan stagnate and his breath grow difficult!
He was a powerful being of divine might, having slain countless gods. However, at this moment when the Xuan Shen Emperor raised the Sahasrara Dragon Staff, there was no possibility of resistance, no chance to face him, not even looking from afar was a dangerous proposition!
He couldn't help but concentrate, connecting with the five senses, and gripping his sword tightly with a powerful will, battling his instinctive fear. But facing such a terrifying change, Cao Jie and the other true immortals standing by the riverbank remained completely motionless, showing no intention of making a move.

...They stood, some hunched and some stoic, watching as the Jade Emperor raised his Samsara Dragon Staff, stirring the winds and clouds of the Mystic Realm. Then, in a blink, a sword light slashed through the sky!
It's not just the emptiness where the Saha World Staff resides, it's not just the boundary river, nor is it confined to the Jiyou Realm. It seems as if the entire Illusory World has cracked open. It felt like a sensation, yet it also seemed to have become reality.
In that instant when the sword light appeared in his vision, Jiang Wang clearly felt his divine light separate along with it, and his soul seemed to be split in two.
He seemed to have been dismembered, yet within that agony, he was aware of his own existence. A chill ran down his spine involuntarily, but even his sweat wouldn't flow! How fragile this golden body and jade marrow were, how insignificant the divine and bright were. What level of sword light was this From what kind of sword! It had no concrete shape, yet possessed a tangible sharpness.
It appeared in a manner that shattered the veil of illusion, and with its lofty posture atop the raised Staff of Samsara, it struck it down! *Boom!* A soft explosion rang out.
The right hand of the Xuan Shen Emperor, Rui Chong, holding his staff, burst apart instantly, shattered into countless infinitesimal fragments beyond human vision. Whether it was Dao Rules, Dao Territories, Dao Blood, or ceremonial robes, bones, or primordial energy, when broken down to such a degree, they all seemed so... close.
With an immortal heart stationed at the Five Palaces, Jiang Wang, with his blazing red eyes of Yang energy, gazed upon all this, and vaguely understood what "one" truly meant. What was the original form yet so subtle within the Source Sea! The might of a single sword had reached such a level!
The staff of Shambhala fell, and Rui Chong spun in mid-air. Her robe, with its strange patterns, bloomed like a vibrant flower. She caught the staff once more with a practiced hand, her grip tightening around it. With the tip, sharp as a lance, she drew across—a sound like tearing silk.
With a tearing sound ripping through the heavens, the boundary river that stretched across the sky before them, located in the Jiyou realm, suddenly expanded a thousandfold! The terrifying and chaotic currents of rules surged and raged at this moment, like a celestial river in turmoil. And Ruichong had let go.
The Staff of Tathāgata Dragon continued to descend, instantly spreading out and filling the immense void. The Saha World reappeared in this realm! However, mountains were shattered, rivers surged, leaving a scene of ruin.
"What's wrong" Zhū Bì Qióng's concerned voice pulled Jiāng Wàng out of his suffocating tension. He struggled to regain his sight,
Seeing the bamboo shoots stand across his path, they seemed to block something.
He was in a sorry state, looking around wildly. He realized that not only were Bamboo Biqiong and Zhu Qingru as calm as the wind and clouds, but even those soldiers behind him with lower cultivation levels stood firm and unyielding.
This is clearly Yu Liyang's masterpiece!
>
He said that protecting everyone is true protection. The battle involving the Shambhala Dragon Staff, even across the boundary river and even at a distance, was not something to be taken lightly.
But his suspicions about Jiang Wang were also true... He protected everyone, except for Jiang himself.
"It's nothing, don't worry," Jiang Wang responded to Zhu Biqiong, stepping aside and moving forward, just about to question Yu Liyang. "Do you know where this sword came from" Yu Liyang suddenly asked. His attention was immediately diverted: "Where"
"The Cangwu Realm," Yu Liyang said, gazing at the vast river that marked the boundary, without turning back. "The Cangwu Realm" Jiang Wang vaguely recalled something.
"That's the third sword of the Taoist School, Mount Penglai Daozhu's sword, 'Chao Cangwu,' is its name," Yu Liyang explained patiently. Jiang Wang was stunned: "Chao Cangwu This sword and that book... what connection" Yu Liyang apparently knew which book Jiang Wang was talking about, only saying, "It's unclear." The 'it's unclear' coming from the mouth of the Peach Blossom Fairy obviously proved the chaos of this matter.
"Regarding the book you mentioned, the 'Classic of Heavenly Cultivation,' there are many different accounts." Zhu Qingru said solemnly from the side, "Some say it was written by the master of the Penglai School. Others say it was written by a powerful cultivator who claimed to be the master of Penglai. There are also those who believe it was compiled by disciples of Penglai, gathering their cultivation knowledge into a book dedicated to 'Cangwu...'. Some even say it's simply a compilation of common sense about cultivation by several wandering cultivators, just coincidentally with a similar name."
Jiang Wang asked, "In this Zhaochangwu scripture, the character '朝' refers to either the sun rising or paying respects. Which is it" Zhu Qingru pondered for a moment, "I dare not make a definite conclusion. It's best to ask Yu Zhenjun."
Yu Liyang casually said, "Facing Cangwu Sword naturally means facing the sunrise. But as for the Cangwu Ritual, there is no definitive conclusion, so any name will do. Many people, in order to distinguish it from the sword of the Lord of Penglai Dao, insist on calling it 'facing worship.'"
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Jiang Wang seemed thoughtful: "So this standoff in the Illusory Realm that has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years is a confrontation between Chao Cangwu's sword and the Sapo Dragon Staff, that is, the clash between the master of Penglai Dao and the Heavenly Buddha"
"That's an understandable interpretation," Yu Liyang said. "This is a game that the Lord of Penglai and the Heavenly Buddha have been playing for hundreds of thousands of years. In the process of their game, the two transcendents also used the war between the two races in the realm of illusion to nurture this transcendent artifact."
"That just..."
Just now, the clash between Zhaocangwu Jian and Shapo Longzhu was something Jiang Wang didn't understand. All he knew was that Zhaocangwu Jian seemed to have the upper hand, but he couldn't tell how the battle ended or what its impact would be.
Could it be that it only reaches the level of Shen Huang, the Supreme Sovereign of Victory Xuan, with just one arm
Yu Liyang said: "There are two things you need to know. First, just now the Chao Cangwu Sword was not unsheathed, it only emitted sword energy, but the Saha Dragon Staff trembled at its root. Second, the Saha Dragon Staff was controlled by Ruichong just now, and it was the Penglai Island cultivator Mengyu who triggered the Chao Cangwu Sword."
Meng Yu was also a formidable expert, a true master of the world. But compared to the Xuan Shen Emperor, he paled in comparison.
Dao Chuang's pressure subdued the wavering foundation of Xing Po Long Zhang, and it also clearly reflected the gap in this battle. Chao Cang Wu Jian with a sword qi suppressed the wavering foundation of An An Long Xiao, a small but clear area... Rui Chong originally wanted to use Tuo Po Long Zhang to kill the enemy, but in the end, he only hastily expanded the boundary river and still returned to the Sa Po Long domain. This loss was extremely large. Yu Li Yang added: "And Chao Cang Wu Jian did not surpass the Sa Po Long Zhang, or at least there was no such gap." So this is the victory that the human race gained in this battle! Jiang Wang vaguely understood.
The victory in this battle ultimately fell to the nine words Yu Liyang mentioned at the beginning, "Having lost the first opportunity, and wasted a thousand years." What was lost
This is the first move in the confrontation that spanned hundreds of thousands of years between Tianfo and the Lord of Penglai! The Saha World Dragon Staff trembled, while the Azure Weng Sword remained sheathed. What was a millennium wasted for
It is the millennium accumulation of the Saha World Dragon Staff raised in the realm of illusion!
This great victory stemmed from its aid in securing the upper hand for the Lord of Penglai Dao in achieving transcendence! Therefore, Yue Jie's final overthrowing of the Heavenly Buddha Temple at Long Zen Ridge was not simply a temple; it was the shattering of the Sea Tribe's century-long "clan fortune"!
>
"So..." Jiang Wang hesitated, "The head of Penglai and the Heavenly Buddha...are they still..."
Yu Li Yangping stood with his hands flat, sleeves fluttering in the breeze, as if trying to catch something. He sighed wistfully and said, "As long as I haven't escaped this predicament, how can I possibly explain it clearly"
The Transcendentals' lifespans are unpredictable, even a brilliant genius like the Peach Blossom Immortal can only sigh in confusion. It's truly unimaginable! It's been ages since either the Lord of Penglai or the Heavenly Buddha have appeared. Their magnificent legacies are mostly buried under the dust of time. But at least here in the Mystic Realm, their game continues, their weapons still locked in confrontation. The aftermath of this match continues to influence the world's order.
Jiang Wang thought further and asked cautiously, "So the East Sea Dragon Palace and the Heavenly Pure Land..."
As for Jiang Wang's many questions, Yu Liyang didn't hide it, that was because he now had the qualifications to know these things, the qualifications to explore the truth of the world. And these words would not be heard by those who were not qualified to hear them.
“That’s even more important,” Yu Liyang said. Jiang Wang had already guessed, “The Dragon Emperor and the Human Emperor”
Yu Liyang gazed at the shattered Dragon Realm on the opposite bank, sighing, "That was the Dragon Emperor's palace, and this," he gestured to the ruins, "was Emperor Lieshan's ideal kingdom."
