Chapter 1771: Three Major Forces

had slain many powerful beings now, all the resources collected would not even be a fraction of his opponent's wealth if converted into divine crystals.Looking at Shen Changqing's changing expression,...Then.

Shen Changqing learned about the identities of these arriving forces from Duan Jing again.

Due to the events that transpired in Kyushu, numerous scattered cultivators from various factions were living in fear. Even the desolate and barren Ancient Wastelands saw the arrival of over a hundred large and small factions seeking refuge here.

Over a hundred forces exist, with some as weak as having only a god presiding over them, while others are powerful enough to have a god emperor living among them.

among.

The situation is primarily dominated by three major factions.

Mysterious Void Sect!

Greetings, members of the Imperial Family!

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Lingyan Sect!

These three forces are all led by powerhouses at the level of the Divine Emperor. Even within the Nine Regions, they are top-tier powers that have established themselves firmly.

It's a pity.

Even the top three forces, when faced with the dominance of the two major factions, could only retreat tail between their legs.

No way.

Even if the Emperor were incredibly strong, he would still be nothing but an ant before a Divine Venerable.

How many Divine Emperors are there in each of the three major forces

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Shen Changqing asked.

Even among top forces with a powerful divine emperor at their helm, the number and realm of these emperors are crucial factors to consider.

Like the ancient Sacred Land of Guhuang in the past, it was also a top power with a god emperor sitting in charge, but Ji Yan was just a newly promoted god emperor. Such a force was obviously at the bottom among the top powers at the god emperor level.

Among the three major forces, the imperial family should have the most Divine Emperors. It is rumored that there are five Divine Emperors in the imperial family, while the Xuanming Sect and the Lingyan Sect each have three Divine Emperors in existence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But as for which of the three major powers, the Divine Emperor, is stronger or weaker, this subordinate cannot yet determine!

Duan Jing said solemnly.

Three major forces!

Eleven Divine Emperors!

For Gu Huang, this was an extremely terrifying power.

After all, in the past, there wasn't even one Divine Emperor in the ancient wilderness. Now, eleven Divine Emperors have appeared all at once, you can imagine how much the entire situation has changed.

Shen Changqing heard this, and once again inquired about some intelligence from the three major forces, as well as understanding the changes in Hongshan City over the past five hundred years. Then he let the other party leave.

“The Xuanming Sect originates from Dashouzhou, and the Shangguan family also hails from Dashouzhou. It's possible that there's some connection between them. The Gong family having five Divine Emperors as protectors shows that their foundation is also extremely deep.”

But even forces of this level chose to come to the Ancient Desolate Land, rather than the other seven desolate lands, which shows that the forces going to the other seven desolate lands are very likely even more powerful than the Palace Clan!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

The fact that the three major powers chose to come to Guhuang instead of other places speaks volumes.

From this, one can further see the depth of the Netherworld.

After all, there are so many Divine Emperor forces in Guhuang. Then in other places that are much richer than Guhuang, it is destined that there will be even more Divine Emperor forces intervening.

Even without thinking, Shen Changqing could imagine how intense the fighting would be in regions beyond Gu Huang.

This is the end of a paragraph.

>But... did the Underworld Camp really give up on the Ancient Desolate Nine Cities

Chen Changqing inwardly questioned the news.

According to Duànjǐng's statement, both sides are now clashing fiercely. The Netherworld camp doesn't want to waste strength in Gǔhuāng and intends to concentrate all its forces to fight a decisive battle with the Dark camp, which is also reasonable.

But.

Gu Huang is different from other places.

Here lies the entrance to the myriad heavens.

Whoever controls the entrance to heaven has an extra way out.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However.

Given the current situation, it's possible that the Netherworld camp is truly facing its last stand and might not have any other options left.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Shen Changqing shook his head, temporarily putting this thought aside.

The Nether camp's withdrawal from the Ancient Wasteland is good news regardless, after all, without major factions watching, the chances of exposure are greatly reduced.

Then.

Shen Changqing's divine sense spread.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In a moment, the entire Red Mountain City was enveloped within his divine consciousness.

Within the range of Shen Changqing's divine sense, he could 'see' a large number of cultivators, as well as the aura contained in each cultivator.

compared with five hundred years ago.

Five hundred years later, Hongshan City had changed a lot.

This is the end of a paragraph.

First of all.

That is the Red Mountain Army.

Shen Changqing had originally only called upon one hundred thousand Hongshan troops, but now the Hongshan army has expanded to one million.

Not bad!

That's one million!

One million Crimson Mountain Army soldiers, the weakest are Divine Kings, and the strong can become Divine Lords. This is an extremely astonishing force. If it were placed among the myriad heavens, it would already be qualified to wage war against ten thousand races.

Since the ancient catastrophe, the heavens have gradually lost their ability to contend with the underworld.

Neither the number of top-tier powerhouses nor the number of mid-level powerhouses are on the same level.

This is a translation of the text you provided:

Before the great tribulation.

All the celestial gods and kings hold high positions, but rarely are they seen.

After the great tribulation, although the number of deities and divine masters increased considerably, it was still quite limited.

Even now.

Whether there could be millions of divine kings in the heavens is a question.

Based on just one Hongshan City, the power it wields can be compared to, or even surpass, the strength of mid-level forces in the heavens.

If there hadn't been some top-tier powerhouses stationed in the myriad heavens, when the Four Great Empires invaded, the myriad heavens would have completely collapsed and fallen.

“Hongshan Chamber of Commerce!”

Shen Changqing's gaze fell on the Chamber of Commerce.

The former Hongling Merchant Association, now renamed the Hongshan Merchant Association, is the largest force in Hongshan City and is frequented by many cultivators.

The nine talisman masters who joined the Chamber of Commerce back then are now all stalwarts who hold down one side of the Chamber of Commerce.

In the locked room.

At this moment, Zhuang Daizi was intently drawing talismans. The talisman paper emitted a faint divine light, and the brush was stained with ferocious beast blood. It danced across the talisman paper, its movements as natural as flowing water.

Suddenly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The brush trembled slightly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The originally radiant talismans suddenly burst into flames, turning to ashes and vanishing in an instant.

"Another failure!"

Zhuang Daozi sighed.

He no longer remembers how many times he has failed.

Every time.

They are all just one step away from success.

This is a simple example.

But even with this final blow, making Zhuang Daozi's efforts fall short, he had been stuck at this level for almost a century. He was just one step away from breaking through the limit and ascending to the rank of a second-rank mid-grade talisman master.

It is a pity.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

I've always been unable to grasp it.

Zhuang Daozi asked himself that his talismans' aptitude was also quite good, otherwise he wouldn't have achieved the rank of a second-rank lower-grade talisman master as a wandering cultivator.

After listening to Shen Changqing explain the Dao of talismans, and feeling it deeply himself, he was finally able to touch the threshold of a second-rank middle-grade talisman master.

Please note that the original text was empty. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

I thought I had been in seclusion for hundreds of years, and was about to break through this threshold.

But now.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhuang Daozi found that he had overthought it.

It is not so easy for a second-rank medium-grade talisman master to break through.

Even if it's just a step away from success, truly wanting to break through still requires timing and the accumulation of time.

>

"It's a pity that the city lord is still in seclusion. If I could consult with him, I would certainly be able to break through to the realm of a second-rank middle-grade talisman master with this opportunity!"

Zhuang Daozi couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing Shen Changqing speak twice gave him a lot of benefit. If he could often hear the other party speak, the benefits would be self-evident.

But unfortunately.

Sheng Changqing has been in seclusion for nearly five hundred years, and he has rarely appeared. Zhuang Daozi couldn't disturb him either.

After all, the strong ones retreat in seclusion. They practice for thousands or even millions of years. Five hundred years is nothing to them.

It was at that moment.

A voice reached Zhuang Daozi's ears, causing his expression to flicker slightly before erupting into boundless joy.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"The city lord has left the city!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Immediately.

Zhuang Daozi didn't have time to pack anything, and hurriedly went towards Shen Changqing's mansion.

Several other masters of the Fudao sect also set out at the same time.

Shen Changqing left the customs.

This was a huge deal for them.

Even the cultivators who were in seclusion are now disregarding everything and leaving their retreats.

Inside the mansion.

Master Zhuang Daozi and nine other masters of the Fu Dao Sect arrived.

"Greetings, Lord Mayor!"

"Your Majesty, please be seated."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing nodded, his gaze fell on the nine masters of Fudaozong in front of him. His divine sense could see through all of them completely.

A master of the Nine-Character Divine Path.

All are at the level of a god master.

Moreover.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even the weakest have reached the middle stage of Divine Lord.

Like Zhuang Daozi, who was originally a Divine Master sixth-level cultivator, after five hundred years of changes, he has broken through to the Divine Master eighth level, and his aura is extremely stable, with the potential to strike the Divine Master ninth level.

As a wandering cultivator, it would be impossible to break through two or three minor realms within five hundred years.

In Shen Changqing's view, Zhuang Daozi's ability to break through so quickly was inseparable from the connection with Hongshan Merchant.

After all, the Hongshan Merchant Guild is quite generous in its treatment of these talisman masters. Entering the Hongshan Merchant Guild for five hundred years allows them to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources, and it's not impossible to forcefully elevate their cultivation level.

However.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing didn't really care about these people's cultivation levels.

Just a god.

Right now, he could crush a bunch of them with just one slap.

What truly mattered to Shen Changqing was the cultivation level of these people in talismanry.

Nine masters of the Fu Dao Sect.

That year, only three people reached the second level of attainment. The rest were all first-level Rune Dao Masters.

But now.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

Nine masters of the Fu Dao Sect had all broken through to the second rank, which was considered good news.

As early as when Shen Changqing had enveloped the entire Hongshan City with his divine sense, he had seen through all nine Fu Dao masters in front of him.

Therefore, when Zhuang Daozi and his companions arrived, Shen Changqing wasted no time and went straight to the point.

"Over the past five hundred years, you have all joined the Hongshan Merchant Guild and have diligently worked for the guild. This seat has seen it with its own eyes."

"Today, I summon you all here to expound upon the Dao of Talismans. I hope that you will all gain something from it!"

Thank you, Lord Mayor!

All nine were visibly excited.

They came here in such a rush for one reason: they wanted to learn about the Way of Talismanry from Shen Changqing, hoping to find further breakthroughs in their own practice.

Especially Zhuang Daozi, he had been stuck at the second-rank lower grade Fu Dao master for many years, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through. Now that Shen Changqing spoke, even if it was just a glimmer of hope, it gave him a chance to break through.

And then.

Shen Changqing simply explained the Dao directly.

Heavens and earth manifest wondrous visions, the rules of the Dao appear in myriad forms. Sentences of profound language enter a few people's ears, causing them to be involuntarily immersed in it.
