Chapter 151 The Golden Age is Coming, Hope Seen in the Body, Great Destiny Spell

Red lanterns are still hung on the pavilions, corridors, walls and palaces in the Xiangguo Mansion, creating a festive atmosphere.

Jiang Lan walked through several layers of courtyard corridors, and when he came back, his father Jiang Lintian and mother Li Qingshu were walking and chatting in the backyard garden, with smiles on their faces.

Jiang Lintian was holding fish food in his hand, and his mother grabbed a handful and sprinkled it into the pond, causing many exotic fish in the pond to scramble for it.

"Father, Mother." Jiang Lan came over and bowed.

"Lan'er, are you in such a hurry to return home? Why don't you stay in the palace for a few more days? Your grandfather thinks highly of Xia Junxi. It's a good opportunity for you to deepen your relationship since you are newly married."

"Besides, the ceremony has just ended. If you leave like this, aren't you afraid that Xia Junxi will be unhappy?"

Li Qingshu's eyes were gentle. As she spoke, she came over to help him smooth down his wrinkled collar and said, "Xia Junxi doesn't know how to take care of people. We need to let her learn when we have time. Let someone teach her a lesson."

"After all, Emperor Xia is the king of a country and the future ruler of the world. How could he possibly learn these things? Madam, if she hears what you said, her resentment will probably deepen." Hearing this, Jiang Lintian felt helpless.

Li Qingshu snorted coldly, "I don't care if she is the ruler of a country or not. Anyway, if she marries Lan'er now, she will be Lan'er's wife. She should learn how to take care of her husband and children and have fewer evil thoughts. I have treated her very well by not forcing her to give me a big fat grandson."

"Although I don't care about the affairs of the court, how much power has the Prime Minister's Mansion given her in the court now?"

"If it had been before, the loss of the national treasure would have caused a lot of uproar, and the entire Zhenbei Palace would have been implicated. With Ping Chaonu, how could he have been so accommodating to her like he is now?"

Jiang Lan's heart skipped a beat. His mother was extremely dissatisfied with Emperor Xia. If it wasn't for the family's plans, she would never let him marry Emperor Xia.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is really difficult to deal with, but fortunately it has no effect on him.

After all, marrying Emperor Xia was only for the sake of fortune and the plans of the Prime Minister's Mansion. In the future, the chances for my mother to meet Emperor Xia will probably be few and far between.

"Mother, don't be angry. These are just trivial matters. I will teach her well in the future." Jiang Lan played the role of a good person and persuaded.

"Mengning didn't know how to take care of others before, but now she has learned it well, hasn't she? How about Lan'er, you bring Mengning into the palace to take care of you? This is also a good opportunity for Emperor Xia to learn from her." Li Qingshu was still giving him advice.

Jiang Lan seemed to have a headache and said, "Mother, please don't say that anymore. I don't want Meng Ning to be wronged because of this."

Jiang Lintian also said at the right time, "Young people should handle their own affairs. Madam, please don't cause trouble for Lan'er."

Li Qingshu said this with a bit of joking. After all, Li Mengning was the true descendant of the current Li family and the Saintess of the Taiyi Sect. Her status was extremely noble.

Even if Li Mengning was willing, the old guys in Taiyi Sect would not agree.

"It's just right that Lan'er is back. I have something to talk to you about." Jiang Lintian put away the casual look on his face and became serious.

"Father, please speak." Jiang Lan looked at him.

In fact, he could vaguely guess what Jiang Lintian wanted to say to him because it involved the future trend.

Although the plot direction has been advanced a lot, and even some of the plots involving himself have become different, the main world trajectory of this world will definitely not change.

This is a general trend of the universe. It's like when a person dies, the sun will still rise. It won't change because of one person.

In the torrent of the times, a person is nothing but a speck of dust.

In the original plot, when the struggle between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the royal family was most intense, it was also the beginning of the golden age when the fortune of the entire era was the most prosperous and opportunities were bubbling.

Just as everything that rises must fall, during that period, the court was in turmoil and the situation was out of control.

Wars broke out all over the border. Princes of various counties and vassal states rose up in rebellion, prepared their troops, and established their own territories.

The order was in chaos, and all the immortal sects and aristocratic families were trying to protect themselves. Many people took advantage of the chaotic situation to seize opportunities and plunder resources.

The same is true for the other major states in the Kyushu land. Opportunities and adventures are bursting forth, which means that geniuses and prodigies are emerging in endlessly, and the whole world is ushering in a scene of brilliant contention.

The situation and order that were maintained in the past no longer exist, and Zhongtianzhou has become a battleground for various holy places.

"Your grandfather, Li Ran, is a saint of the time. Many years ago, he had a premonition that the great situation of heaven and earth would change. The entire world would usher in an unprecedented golden age. This is an unimaginable opportunity and destiny."

"In such an era, every practitioner and living being may reach a realm that was unattainable in previous eras and have a long lifespan..."

"So your grandfather made plans early on and asked me to assist the late emperor of Daxia, conquer various countries, and wipe out some countries that dominated Zhongtianzhou, restoring the former glory of Daxia when it shocked the world and hundreds of countries came to pay tribute."

"This is due to some far-reaching planning by your grandfather. Otherwise, with the foundation and strength of Daxia at that time, it would have been difficult to clear away many obstacles." Jiang Lintian talked freely and explained these things to Jiang Lan.

Although Daxia is powerful, it has only existed for a few thousand years. You should know that in Zhongtian Province, there is no shortage of extremely ancient aristocratic families, some of whose ancestors even gave birth to saints, and they have small worlds as their family foundation.

When the outside world is in turmoil and chaos and wars are endless, it can still remain aloof and unaffected. Even when thunder and lightning run out, it remains immortal. This shows how powerful it is.

The founding emperor of Daxia was able to intimidate all the major families and sects and achieve such great achievements.

But after his death, no one with comparable talent appeared in later generations, and the royal family was powerless and there was a lack of successors. Even the most powerful empire would eventually decay.

Originally, the fortunes of Da Xia had already declined to a certain extent under the rule of the previous Emperor Xia. If Jiang Lintian had not been born to assist him, it is estimated that Da Xia would not have lasted for more than a few hundred years.

In other words, the reason why Daxia can be as prosperous as it is today is entirely because there is a contemporary saint behind the scenes who has prolonged its life.

Why is the Prime Minister's Mansion so powerful that even the various immortal sects are wary of it? This is the main reason.

Jiang Lan was familiar with the original plot, so he was actually very clear about what Jiang Lintian was saying now.

But it is precisely because of this that, in the original plot, the protagonist Lin Fan was able to accumulate power like a snowball and push down a behemoth like the Prime Minister's Mansion, allowing Daxia to escape the fate of being a chess piece, and even challenge the saint, which is the most outrageous thing.

"Before the Middle Ages, the land of Jiuzhou was actually called the Divine Land. Even the overseas countries, those fairy mountains and islands, and the endless coastline were actually part of the Divine Land. During the last catastrophe of heaven and earth, it was shattered by boundless power. Since then, the ancient immortal sects, Buddhas, demons, and monsters have also disappeared."

"According to your grandfather's calculations, after the Golden Age arrives, those ancient immortal sects will return and begin to make plans."

"And the land of Jiuzhou has been the center of heaven and earth since ancient times. The land of Zhongtianzhou has bred many powerful people who dominate the world. If you control this land, you will hold the most confident card in the near future."

"The skills that my father practices are also closely related to the fortune of Daxia. When the fortune of the country is rising and opportunities are emerging, it will also be a chance for my father to become a saint."

Jiang Lintian's eyes also showed ambition.

Jiang Lan was well aware of the cultivators in this world's pursuit and yearning for the ninth level of Yuhua. Once they broke through the realm and became saints, they would immediately enjoy a lifespan of more than ten thousand years, live forever, and watch the great changes in the world and the passage of time.

Although Jiang Lintian holds great power and has sway over the world, he still has a deep obsession with this state.

The "sainthood" in transcendence is not just a simple talk. One can pick stars with a wave of the hand, tear the sky and split the earth, travel through time and space, and control the rules. He is omnipotent.

"If you, Lan'er, continue to enjoy pleasures as before, it would be easy for your father and mother to ensure that you live a life of wealth, safety, and peace without worries. But now you have embarked on a journey of cultivation again, washed away all worldly desires, and have reached such a state..."

"There are some things that you have to fight for even if I don't tell you. I see great hope in you." Jiang Lintian's eyes were more serious than ever before.

"Father, are you referring to the Golden Age?" Jiang Lan's heart moved slightly, and he understood something.

"Yes, your grandfather saw the hope of achieving Nirvana in you, so in this life your grandfather plans to pour all the family's resources into you." Jiang Lintian said.

"So, father, you said all this because you want me to prove my strength in the Li family in Suiji, instead of relying on your reputation, right?"

Jiang Lan had actually anticipated what would happen today. After the Southern Hunting Exercise ended that day, it was already destined that he would not be able to continue to keep a low profile as he had done in the past.

After the Fengjun Ceremony, the attention paid to him was much greater than before.

"The Suiji Li family is a family of saints. In addition to your grandfather, there was another saint who was born there. That saint once realized the way of the seasons of heaven and earth, and created another one besides the ancient four seasons, named Suiji. Thus, the five seasons were derived, and the Li family got its name from this."

"Your grandfather is a man of extraordinary talent, surpassing many of the Li family's ancestors. He reached the ninth step of the Jie Bridge thousands of years ago, and then secluded himself for a hundred years. In one fell swoop, he became a saint of heaven and earth in this world..."

“But with his talent, it is difficult for him to enter Nirvana and achieve the illusory Ten Realms Nirvana…” Li Qingshu also sighed slightly.

Jiang Lan nodded and said, "I understand, and I know what to do."

The larger and older the family, the more complicated its internal structure. Although his grandfather Li Ran is a saint, he cannot make all decisions on family affairs, and the family is not ruled by him alone.

Jiang Lintian and Li Qingshu said this to him because they actually wanted him to go back to the Li family in Suiji and prove his talent and potential openly and honestly to compete for the position of young master.

Jiang Lan actually had nothing to resist. With his current cultivation strength, he could easily defeat many young people without using the inheritance of the Blood Immortal Sect.

It is impossible for a family to waste resources on a useless person. If they want to get resources poured in, they must show that they have the ability to do so.

Sui Ji's Li family is different from the Xiangguo Mansion. After all, the Xiangguo Mansion was built by his father himself, and he is the only heir.

But to the Sui Ji Li family, his surname is not Li.

"I will have to go back to the Li family sooner or later this year. The position of young master is definitely in my pocket. My parents are overly worried." Jiang Lan was not worried at all about this.

In addition to Li Mengning, the Li family has several other young talents whose strength is at most comparable to Li Mengning, or even inferior to him.

Once he has completely condensed all of his innate magical powers, his strength will undergo a tremendous change.

After bidding farewell to her parents and returning to her own courtyard, You'er was practicing a footwork. Her black skirt was like a lotus, and she was shrouded in mist. Her figure was elusive, like a fleeting afterimage, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing, and it seemed that even her breath could not be seen at all.

If you close your eyes, what you see in front of you will seem like a real void.

"Owner……"

Seeing Jiang Lan coming back, she immediately showed up happily and came to greet him.

During this period of time, You'er's cultivation has broken through to the fourth level of Zhaoyou Realm, and she can do more things for Jiang Lan.

"You'er, were you slacking off when I was away? As soon as I came back, you rushed to practice your skills?" Jiang Lan smiled and reached out to stroke her black hair.

Li Mengning's cultivation had reached a bottleneck, so before the Fengjun Ceremony, she returned to Taiyi Sect and needed the help of several treasured sites in the sect to make a breakthrough.

It will take quite some time for his cultivation to break through and become more solid, so he is not at home now.

"You'er...didn't slack off..."

You'er raised her porcelain-white face and rubbed his warm palm. Hearing this, her face suddenly turned red with anxiety and she hurriedly explained.

Jiang Lan smiled and said, "If you lie to me, you will be punished."

"No...I didn't lie to my master..." You'er explained hesitantly.

"I'm glad you didn't lie to me."

Jiang Lan pinched her cheek and asked casually, "How is the woman I asked you to keep an eye on these days?"

"She...she wandered outside the mansion a few days ago, but when she learned that the master...you were under house arrest, she left. Since then, she has been living in Shaohua Tower in West City and has never left." As soon as the business was mentioned, You'er hurried to report.

Jiang Lan nodded, and it seemed that Fairy Miaoyin did not dare to attack Xiao Teng personally.

Although she suspected that there was something wrong with Xiao Teng, she had no evidence.

Right now Emperor Xia is planning to send Xiao Teng to investigate the loss of the Dragon Seal, which will also give Jiang Lan an opportunity.

The Imperial Master Ge Qixing is a very secretive person. If one wants to deal with him, one can only start with Xiao Teng. Currently, Emperor Xia is still unclear about the relationship between Xiao Teng and Ge Qixing.

Before the late emperor passed away, he left behind two wills. The former eunuch chief, Duke Wei, was ordered to guard the mausoleum, but in fact he took one of the wills away and found the sixth prince Qi Qingxuan, secretly protecting his safety.

The other copy of the will is in the hands of the national teacher Ge Qixing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

As for his father Jiang Lintian, his achievements were so great that they frightened the emperor. Although he assisted the late emperor in achieving great things, he did not have his trust.

Jiang Lintian was not aware of these two things yet.

"The late emperor was not a simple man. He had foresight and knew that Great Xia would become a battleground for all parties in the future. Regardless of whether Emperor Xia could control the government and stabilize the situation, there was a high possibility that he would become a pawn of others. That's why he deliberately kept this trick to cut off the source of trouble."

"Now that Song Youwei has left the imperial capital, and Ye Shiyan can't do anything for me, it seems that Fairy Miaoyin has a lot of secrets hidden in her, so I can just trick her."

Jiang Lan thought about the plan and decided to start with these two things.

Because of the brocade bag left by the Half-Immortal, Emperor Xia is now sending people to investigate everywhere, looking for relevant people, wanting to know who the heir left by the late emperor is.

At present, Jiang Lan has no intention of revealing this to her.

Although Emperor Xia had some good feelings towards him, he was not yet to the point of trusting and admiring him wholeheartedly.

After teasing You'er for a while, Jiang Lan returned to the palace and continued to condense his innate magical powers.

At present, in addition to the Three Thousand Phoenix Void Technique, he has also used the Four Saints Ancient Heavenly Skills as the source and condensed the Four Saints Killing Technique during this period of time.

Every great killing technique is created based on this, combined with the many experiences he has absorbed from Lin Fan. It can evolve into the true power of the Four Saints, and be combined and derived to create all kinds of powerful powers.

In addition, there is the Tianyuan Sword, which is based on the experience of swordsmanship, which means that once a sword is out, it can determine the four poles, as well as the Great Infinite Art inherited by the Blood Immortal Sect, and the Purple Cloud Immortal Light inherited by the Purple Cloud Taoist...

Every innate magical power represents the essence and mystery of the inherited experience.

Jiang Lan was like a furnace, melting all of these into one, turning them into his own use, drawing inferences from one instance, and deriving and deducing them to an extremely profound state.

Of course, being able to reach this point is all thanks to that mysterious ancient vine.

In this process, a huge amount of luck was also consumed.

"Now I only need the last two innate magical powers, and then I can start preparing the many materials needed to break through the Dharma Realm..."

Jiang Lan never encountered any bottlenecks or obstacles in his practice, and he didn't need to comprehend anything.

All kinds of instincts seem to be innate. Once accumulated enough, they will naturally break through.

When others reach the sixth realm of supernatural powers, in addition to condensing their innate supernatural powers, they also need to go through various perceptions, deductions, learning and honing, so that they can move beyond the embryonic form and approach perfection.

And each of the innate magical powers he had condensed was the most profound and mysterious level he could reach at his current level, and he could no longer advance any further.

Therefore, the realm of supernatural powers is just a transitional stage for him.

Just like the previous Zhaoyou Realm and Hungong Realm, only the Dharma Realm may take a little more time.

Apart from the fact that he had the dew of the immortal fetus, which enabled him to defy his innate nature and possess a flawless foundation, the vast majority of the reason came from the fruit of luck and destiny produced by that ancient vine.

The concept of luck is illusory, but it seems to contain all the mysteries and truths of the world, as well as many secrets of spiritual practice.

He has the fruit of luck and Taoism, and seems to have comprehended the essence of cultivation since birth. What he lacks is only the corresponding realm and magical power.

"The third stage of the Dao Fruit of Life has already involved the Long River of Destiny. Although it is only a vague shadow and is far from being comparable to the real Long River of All Things, it has already allowed me to touch upon some of the true meaning of fate..."

Jiang Lan planned to condense his own innate magical power of the Dao Fruit of Life, which he named the Great Destiny Art.

At this moment, many blurred lines seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

Some are very deep, as if extending into the boundless void, while others are very shallow and cannot be seen clearly unless you look carefully.

These lines and tracks are intricate and spread out from nothingness.

Some landed on something outside, like a plant, a stone, or a flapping insect.

Jiang Lan observed the lines carefully, then reached out to touch them.

Swoosh!!! From nowhere, there seemed to be a clear and cold cracking sound, as if the strings of a guitar were suddenly tightened and then broke.

Jiang Lan noticed that the line he touched finally fell on an ordinary little stone.

And at the moment his fingers fell, there was a buzzing sound in front of his eyes, a blurry image emerged, and then gradually became clear.

He saw dust all over the sky, falling from somewhere unknown.

Some of the dust was stone chips, some was flying sand, and some was rotten bones, floating all over the sky and falling from the sky.

I don’t know how long it took, but the floating dust accumulated into small hills like mounds of earth.

Over the years, these hills have changed their appearance and their outlines have been smoothed out...

Eventually small stones were formed.

"The past life, the future, and the present are all clearly visible under the reflection of fate. If one cultivates to a higher level, one can directly pluck and take away the future Dao fruit through the Great Fate Technique to strengthen oneself. As fate is involved, these causal traces are also extremely clear."

"Through these means, even if I'm thousands of miles away, I can still see through the people who are involved with me at any time and interfere with them..."

Jiang Lan used the Great Destiny Technique to search through the causal fate that was deeply involved with himself, and finally saw some more obvious traces.

He tried to mobilize his mental power, and his soul, misty as it flew out from between his eyebrows, seemed to be looking towards the unknown place following this cause and effect.

Soon, a blurry picture appeared in front of his eyes, and then the picture became clear.

Beside a pond with lush vegetation, a young man in a brown robe was feeding a group of horses. Not far away was a caravan carrying a large amount of goods. They seemed to be on the road and were preparing to take a rest.

"As long as we cross the border ahead, we will soon reach the territory of Nanmozhou. These porcelains, silks and teas are all scarce goods in Nanmozhou. We should be able to make a lot of money by reselling them."

"As soon as we leave Daxia, we need to worry about our safety. The security in Nanmozhou is not that good. It is adjacent to Nanhuangzhou, and barbarians often rob us. We still have to be careful and not be too careless..."

"Daxia will soon go to war with Nanhuangzhou. By then, how will those barbarians have time to plunder Nanmozhou?"

The people sitting in the carriage were drinking water and chatting, with a look of longing to make a lot of money on their faces, but also some worries about the dangers ahead.

By the pond, the young man who was feeding the horses had a calm demeanor, his eyes were peaceful and forbearing, and in the palms of his hands, there was a faint flickering breath of life.

Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky, but there was nothing except the azure blue sky and floating clouds.

"This is weird. Why did I just have the feeling that someone was observing and paying attention to me?"

"Is there a senior hiding here?"

He frowned slightly, and was secretly shaken.

"But maybe I was worrying too much. I have been worried and frightened all the way, and I have no peace day and night. I am finally leaving Daxia safely. When I reach Nanmozhou and find the disciple that the old ghost mentioned, I will be safe."

Then, thinking of something, he shook his head and slowly relaxed.

"I haven't paid attention to this guy for a while. He slipped away very quickly and is about to leave Daxia."

"But, Nanmozhou? It seems the plot has been advanced again."

Jiang Lan withdrew his probing gaze and smiled.

The power of fate and cause and effect is extremely mysterious. Even though he is more than a million miles away, he can still see the situation.

However, activating this method does consume one's energy and can't last long.

After all, Ye Ming was different from Su Qinghan, Chu Chan and others. They did not loyal to him, but hated him to the core. Therefore, he could not use the power of luck to spy on their situation.

Now, this great destiny technique gave him an unexpected surprise.

The next day, in the western part of the imperial capital, deep inside the Shaohua Tower, in a magnificent palace.

"Mr. Jiang's sudden visit is such a great honor to my humble home. You didn't even tell me in advance so that I could send someone to prepare and entertain him properly."

Fairy Miaoyin covered her face with a veil, and wore a loose crimson purple dress that concealed her exquisite and curvy figure and her snow-white and delicate skin, which made people imagine endlessly.

Her eyes are charming and watery, as if they can captivate people.

After Jiang Lan arrived, she came over personally and welcomed him in, with a smile on her face and a bit of surprise.
