Cultivation Helped by Ancestors-Chapter 346 - 284: Saint King Dao Skill (4k)

"What has happened?"

Zhang Jian slightly furrowed his brows.

Jingming Daoist promptly narrated the entire sequence of events in the Imperial City from start to finish.

Finally, he also included the solution he envisaged.

"Mr. Zhang, your sect should have arrays and methods to suppress the dragon vein backlash. I implore you not to hesitate to assist in rescuing His Majesty!"

Jingming Daoist’s expression was earnest!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian glanced at Jingming Daoist with a contemplative look.

He had previously speculated that something unexpected might have happened to Emperor Jingwu within the Imperial City, but he hadn’t anticipated it was the dragon vein backlash from Former Shu affecting Emperor Jingwu.

As for the Dharma Gate to suppress the dragon vein backlash, the Tongshan Dao Lineage indeed possessed such methods.

He himself had practiced them.

Both the "King’s Cauldron Demon-Vanquishing Secret Record" and his lifebound treasure, the Qianyuan Golden Tripod, could suppress the dragon vein, as they belonged to the Sheji Dharma Artifacts.

The Qianyuan Golden Tripod was currently being nurtured within the dragon vein at Vermilion Phoenix Mountain and couldn’t be relocated.

However, the Five-Formed King Tripod visualized from the King’s Cauldron Demon-Vanquishing Secret Record possessed the mystery of suppressing the dragon vein.

If needed, this could be used as a basis to borrow part of the power of the Sheji King Tripod, Tongshan’s Ultimate Treasure, and, with the aid of auxiliary secret techniques, there is hope to suppress the dragon vein.

After all, each profession has its specialization.

Zhang Jian glanced at Jingming Daoist; since Jingming Daoist wished to invite a cultivator from the Tongshan Dao Lineage, he naturally needed to meet the other party’s request.

He could act as the ’middleman’ to introduce several sect elders to step forward; perhaps someone would like to do this ’business’.

At that moment, Zhang Jian said, "Since the State Preceptor requests it, I will give it a try, although I am uncertain whether the sect elders would be willing to proceed...!"

"But I implore you to try your best!"

Hearing this, Jingming Daoist’s face turned solemn.

Zhang Jian nodded, indicating he would give Jingming Daoist a definite answer within three days.

After sending off Jingming Daoist, Zhang Jian looked in the direction of the Imperial City, his eyes deep with ripples.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn’t want anything to happen to Emperor Jingwu.

Although he held significant influence in the Court presently, he hadn’t fully developed his wings yet. If Emperor Jingwu fell, the entire Court would likely be plunged into turmoil.

This would not be beneficial for his growth.

Admittedly, Zhang’s School had now matured, and there was An Ruming commanding the Divine Strategy Army in the military, along with the Qi Family’s influence. If something happened in the Court, with the Zhang Family’s current resources and power, it wouldn’t be difficult to secure a foothold.

However, this is not the optimal way.

For Zhang Jian, the best approach is to first follow the normal path to marquisate, stepping into the central hub of the Court step by step, becoming a marquis and prime minister, and ultimately controlling the Daqian Court. By then, even if Daqian collapses, his mature wings would enable him to restore the realm promptly.

Of course, by then, it would be best if he had already achieved the Primordial Spirit Master realm, only then could he suppress many powerful figures within and outside of Daqian, smoothly completing the process of replacement.

Now is not the time!

Moreover, if someone tried to rebel, he would still need to help the Daqian Court suppress them.

With this thought, Zhang Jian immediately made up his mind.

Emperor Jingwu must not die; at least he should hold on for a few more years.

...

After sending off Jingming Daoist, Zhang Jian first had dinner with Qi Yuhua, Zhang Zhao, and Zhang Chang’an; he noticed a hint of worry in Qi Yuhua’s expression.

At this time, Qi Yuhua’s belly was already very large, seven or eight months pregnant, appearing somewhat laborious.

Seeing her expression, Zhang Jian pretended to ask nonchalantly, "Madam, has the Empress recently sent anyone to find you?"

Qi Yuhua, seeing that she couldn’t hide it, replied.

"Husband, Yu Zhu’s carriage came yesterday; she was a bit worried and even cried!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jian nodded.

After marrying into the Imperial Family, Qi Yuzhu’s mindset eventually inclined toward Emperor Jingwu, which was expected.

In order to win over him and Qi Yuhua, Emperor Jingwu would certainly have put some effort into the Qi Family.

Qi Yuzhu, initially having some insecurity due to marrying late, now being treated sincerely by Emperor Jingwu, was inevitably moved.

Even some past thoughts appeared to have been set aside.

Thinking of this, Qi Yuhua couldn’t help but say, "Husband, if you think it’s possible, could you save His Majesty?"

"Feeling soft-hearted?"

Zhang Jian’s eyes flickered with ripples.

The wife’s diplomatic means do indeed have some effect.

Qi Yuhua shook her head and said, "It’s not about being soft-hearted; anyone in Daqian can see that His Majesty is a capable and bright monarch, always trying to alleviate the burden of the common people, striving to make people’s lives better!"

"Of course, if it’s really difficult for you, I won’t insist, anyway, in my eyes, you are the most important!"

Initially, there was a trace of displeasure in Zhang Jian’s heart, but upon hearing Qi Yuhua’s latter words, his mood improved instantly.

He then smiled and said, "Rest assured, Madam, since he is a wise monarch, he is naturally blessed by providence!"

...

Within the Ancestral Hall, Zhang Jian circulated the Treasure Record Magical Power to summon the Heaven and Earth Profound Sect.

The Heaven and Earth Profound Sect stood tall in the profound void, and Zhang Jian’s Yang Spirit instantly tore through the void. Moments later, following the lead of this Spirit Treasure, his figure emerged deep within the Body God Mountain.

Having cultivated spatial techniques, Zhang Jian became more sensitive to the mysteries of the powerful Spirit Treasure, Heaven and Earth Profound Sect.

The power is indeed immense.

Spirit Treasures also constitute a part of one’s strength, and with Heavenly Purity Fire, such a great powerful Divine Fire in his possession, Zhang Jian could more clearly discern the aid a Spirit Treasure provides to oneself.

Within Demon-slaying Peak, Tie Xin Daoist was closed in cultivation, using a Taoist poem gifted by Zhang Jian to harmonize his Dao Heart and perfect his Dao Practice. Knowing Zhang Jian had entered the mountain, he promptly exited his seclusion to meet him.
