Chapter 293 Ziwei's Nightfall
Because of Lao Tzu more than two thousand years ago, the ancient Ziwei Star today has a strong interest in visitors from outside the region, but at the same time is also very wary of them.

I'm afraid that another invincible Lao Tzu has come this time.

In response, Qin Sheng stated:
Don't be afraid, it's the righteous Tosen who's coming.

“The Jiang family has close ties with the Sun God Cult, so I came here specifically to take a look.”

Qin Sheng stared at Jiang Ming, "Master Jiang, do you have any guidance?"

He suspected that the deputy leader of this cult was a descendant of the Jiang family.

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Qin, what brings you from all this way from the Big Dipper to seek out the Jiang family?" Jiang Ming asked.
"Is it for the Emperor's legacy? If so, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."

"As is well known, Emperor Hengyu did not leave any legacy in Ziwei after he attained enlightenment."

That's true.

Many people covet the Taiyin and Taiyang in Ziwei, but no one explores the Hengyu lineage. This is because everyone knows that no Hengyu imperial way has been preserved in Ziwei, which has been tested by history.

After Emperor Hengyu attained enlightenment, he only returned to Ziwei once, did a few things there, and then left with a few members of the Jiang family who were willing to go to Beidou. He never appeared there again.

No one knows why he left and never returned.

"Vice Leader Jiang is indeed cautious," Qin Sheng chuckled.

"I come from another Hengyu Jiang family, representing the current sage of the Jiang family to visit my clansmen."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming's pupils contracted sharply.

That real emperor, the Jiang family?
"There is a token as proof."

Qin Sheng took out the Jiang family's token and activated it directly.

"The call of blood..." Jiang Ming's expression was complex, a mixture of excitement, disbelief, and longing.

"We traversed the universe via the ancient starry road, but there must have been a problem with the altar on the Ziwei side, which caused us to land in Luzhou."

Then Qin Sheng took out a jade slip, which was a letter written by the God King to the Jiang family of Ziwei, and also had the mark left by Hengyu Furnace, so it could not be faked.

Jiang Ming read through the information in the jade slip and felt the imprint of the Hengyu Furnace, and was extremely excited.

"It really is a member of the clan. How is the Jiang family of Beidou doing now?"

Qin Sheng nodded, "Very good, the bloodline is vigorous and extremely powerful."

As long as the imperial weapon is not lost, there will be no major problems with the Great Emperor's lineage; this is the ultimate guarantee.

"That's good, that's good. Fellow Daoist Qin, please come in." Jiang Ming led Qin Sheng and the others into the main hall.

"How is the Jiang family of Ziwei doing now? How could there be a problem with the Starry Sky Altar?" Qin Sheng asked.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming sighed heavily.

"The Jiang family currently has only a few descendants remaining, who have completely merged with the Sun God Cult, namely us, back then..."

Ten thousand years ago, the Jiang families of Beidou and Ziwei still had contact. Although the Ziwei Jiang family had declined at that time, it was still a considerable family.

But all of this changed thousands of years ago.

At that time, the Golden Crow Clan and the Sun God Cult clashed in their most intense conflict. During the great battle, the Jiang family did not stand idly by and did their utmost to support the Holy Emperor's lineage.

In the end, the long-declining Sun God Cult was no match for the powerful Golden Crow Cult, suffering heavy casualties and losing its ancestral sacred mountain and much territory. The Jiang family also suffered a severe blow and never recovered, retreating to the Sun God Cult together with the Holy Empress's descendants.

The Jiang family's ancestral lands were hidden away, and it was probably during this period that the Starry Sky Altar encountered problems.

"Ten thousand years have passed, and I never imagined so much has happened. The world has changed so much," Qin Sheng sighed.

“Perhaps in this era, there is truly no place left to carry on the legacy of the Holy Emperor,” Jiang Ming said with a forlorn expression.

He genuinely considered himself a member of the Sun God Cult.

Li Zhiyang, the leader of the Sun Cult, married Jiang Ming's daughter and they had a son and a daughter. The son even took the surname Jiang to continue the Jiang family bloodline.

The Holy Empress and the Jiang family have long been inseparable.

As for Xiao Tongtong, the Sun Body whom Ye Fan met in Ziwei in the original timeline, she is still a long way from being born.

"But I believe that there's always a way out," Qin Sheng said.

What goes up must come down, and what goes down must come up again; the cycle of destiny is ever-changing and never fixed.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you previously said that you came on behalf of the current sage of the Jiang family of the Big Dipper?" Jiang Ming asked.

Yi Qingwu, who had been quietly accompanying the little girl, was also shocked when she heard this.

Is the Big Dipper so powerful that it even has a contemporary sage?

Is the suppression of the Great Dao there very weak?
If that's the case, it would be great if I could go to Beidou to train...

"Yes, the Starry Sky Gate can only be opened by a saint. I was entrusted by the saint of the Jiang family to escort his Daoist companion, Fairy Caiyun, to Ziwei," Qin Sheng said.
"The sage had other important matters to attend to, so he was unable to come in person."

Yi Qingwu was somewhat relieved that the saint of this world hadn't come with this devil.

The master of the Eight Views Palace is only a powerful being, yet he dares to be so presumptuous. If he had a saint backing him up, one can't even imagine what he would do.

"I learned from the memories of the experts of Tianyang Sect that the situation of the Sun God Sect is not good. Could you tell me more about it?" Qin Sheng asked.

In that short time, Jiang Ming sighed several times. He said:
"My descendants are incompetent; please forgive my shortcomings, fellow Daoist."

"On the ancient star of Ziwei, the Golden Crow clan is now very powerful. This clan is born with a fire body and cultivates the way of the sun. They covet the inheritance of our sect and have always wanted to obtain the Holy Emperor's True Scripture of the Sun from us."

"That battle was also caused by this, but the True Scripture of the Sun was lost much earlier and no longer exists in the world."

Qin Sheng nodded slightly. This wasn't a lie; the Sun God Cult truly didn't have any authentic scriptures passed down.

Qin Sheng at least had the Dragon Transformation and Sendai chapters of the Sun True Scripture, but the Sun God Cult was not as good as him.

"The Golden Crow Clan does not believe that the true scripture has been lost and has been aggressive, especially in recent years, when they have gone too far in trying to obtain the ancient scripture by various means."

In the land of Shenzhou, the Golden Crow is currently the most revered clan, and many forces have submitted to this clan, becoming its pawns. The Sun God Cult is in a precarious situation, facing difficulties from all sides.

The hardships and humiliations involved are too numerous to describe in a few words.

"If it weren't for the protection of the Holy Emperor's legacy, my Sun God Cult would probably have been destroyed long ago."

Although the Sun God Cult has declined to this state, this place is still the former ancestral home of Ziwei Temple. Some sects care about their reputation and are not willing to openly exterminate them.

Most powers turned a blind eye to the actions of the Fusang Divine Tree Kingdom.

Even if someone wanted to help, they were powerless to do so. The Golden Crow Clan had a Great Accomplishment King and a legendary holy weapon, which made everyone wary. No one could compete with them.

It wasn't until more than ten years later, when the Golden Crow Clan suffered heavy casualties in the struggle for the Immortal Tree, even losing one of their sacred weapons, that they, in a fit of rage, completely disregarded everything and destroyed the Sun God Cult.

"Speaking of which, the Sun God Cult should thank that righteous Taoist who recently appeared," Jiang Ming said, trying to make light of the situation.

"If he hadn't been digging up the ancestral graves of the Golden Crow Clan everywhere, causing a large number of Golden Crow Clan members to hunt him down, then during the Golden Crow Conference, the Ancient City of the Sun would have been completely under their control, and my sect would have faced countless troubles."

In previous Golden Crow Conferences, the Fusang Divine Tree Kingdom would use various methods to humiliate the members of the Divine Cult within the Ancient City of the Sun.

The sudden appearance of the Righteous Daoist has diverted the Golden Crow's firepower to him, giving the Sun God Cult a chance to breathe.

"...The Righteous Taoist is indeed righteous." Qin Sheng couldn't hold back any longer.

It's a pity Duan De is in Beidou; otherwise, introducing this righteous Taoist to him would surely have given them something to talk about.

Furthermore, this righteous Taoist might be killed by the Golden Crow Clan at any time, so the two sides will likely never meet again.

"And there are also hidden worries within my Sun God Cult," Jiang Ming continued.

"The true gate of my sect is in the Sun King's Court, five thousand miles away, where the sect leader is stationed."

“But now, some people in the sect have other ideas and are constantly in contact with the Golden Crow Clan, putting pressure on us from both inside and outside.”

"Are they also from the Holy Empress's family?" Qin Sheng frowned.

"No, the Sun God Cult is inclusive and tolerant of all sides. They are highly skilled individuals trained by the cult from childhood, but now they have the intention to split the cult."

Qin Sheng understood; it was a treacherous act.

Jiang Ming felt ashamed, "We are incompetent and unable to protect the Holy Emperor's legacy. We have failed our ancestors."

The Sun God Cult also has powerful figures, and Jiang Ming himself is a cult leader, ranking at the eighth level of the second stage of the Immortal Realm.

If a normal sect possessed this kind of strength, it would actually be quite impressive. However, this is the lineage of the Human Emperor, and great success attracts unwanted attention.

Compared to their enemies, a few powerful beings were really no match for them; they didn't even have a single living fossil.

The loss of the Sun Scripture was a great blow to the Sun God Cult.

Without imperial weapons and imperial scriptures, and with its foundation exhausted, the once dignified Holy Emperor lineage has been reduced to mere ordinary.

"The fact that it has been passed down from the time of the Holy Emperor to the present day is the result of the painstaking efforts of the predecessors of the Sun God Sect. Sect Leader Jiang, there is no need to blame yourself."

“Fellow Daoist Qin, you have killed the people of Tianyang Sect. They will definitely not let this go. Tianyang Old Monster is a living fossil. He also has several sect leaders and many powerful figures under him.” Jiang Ming said with some concern.

"With your strength, the Heavenly Sun Sect is certainly not worth mentioning, but the Golden Crow Clan behind them..."

The Sun God Cult knows best the strength of the Golden Crow Clan, having been their enemy for far too long.

Even among the younger generation, there are five princes; one can imagine how many masters there are among the older generation of Golden Crows.

"Let them come," Qin Sheng said indifferently.

“I come from the Big Dipper. Although I am alone and outnumbered, I still have some skills.”

Jiang Ming was right. The people of Tianyang Sect were furious immediately after learning of the tragic death of their powerful member.

"This savage who appeared out of nowhere dares to be an enemy of my Tianyang Sect!"

The old monster of the Tianyang Sect said coldly, "I not only want him dead, but his entire clan and his lineage will be wiped out, never to be reincarnated!"

A young man came to the City of the Sun, and his bird was incredibly fierce.

A half-step great power and a cult leader were easily crushed like chicks, without any power to resist.

Furthermore, the fact that Jin Shanshan's battle record in Zhenxian Ancient City was also brought to light confirmed to everyone that this must be an ancient beast of the living fossil level.

It's not surprising that ancient beasts with such power exist in Ziwei, but what's truly terrifying is that this overlord among beasts is merely used to pull carts for humans!
Who exactly is the human being in that sun god chariot, whose voice is heard but whose face is never seen?

"Someone recognized that the Sun God Chariot was made from Sun God Bronze and the Dao Bone left behind by the Golden Crow Saint after his transformation. It was truly a grand undertaking."

Even the casual observers of Ziwei (a Chinese astrological system) have some skills.

"Even a saint would be tempted by such a chariot. Just who is the person inside?"

"The power of the chariot is somewhat similar to the power of the Sun God. Could it be a hidden trump card of the Sun God Cult?"

"Tianyang Sect will not let this go. Their old leader is incredibly powerful. We'll see soon enough."

"The Heavenly Sun Gate is secondary; the Sun God Copper and the Holy Golden Crow Dao Bone are things that can drive the Golden Crow Clan crazy."

"..."

Discussions resounded in every corner of the Sun City; everyone was paying attention to this matter.

The death of every cult leader is a major event. Before the emergence of that super-ruthless master of the Eight Views Palace, it would be many years before a cult leader-level figure died.

The events that have occurred in the Ancient City of the Sun are quite shocking, especially since they involve the lineage of the Human Emperor and the Golden Crow Overlord Clan.

Just a quarter of an hour later, the sky suddenly brightened, the temperature on earth rose, and an endless sea of ​​fire swept in from afar, as if heavenly fire had descended upon the earth.

"You beast who killed my Tianyang Sect members, come out here!"

The icy voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth, its sound waves endless, burning away the void.

A dozen or so figures appeared, some riding ancient beasts, some standing on magical artifacts, and others arriving with fire, like fire gods.

These dozen or so people possessed an incredibly terrifying aura; each of them was a powerful figure, especially the one in the very center, who was a renowned living fossil-level figure in the Divine Continent.

Tianyang Old Monster's Tianyang Great Technique is so masterful that he is a respected figure even in the Fusang Divine Tree Kingdom.

Ziwei Ancient Star does not possess supreme imperial weapons, yet it is extremely prosperous, with countless secret techniques and profound methods passed down through generations.

When none of the factions possess supreme imperial weapons, it is difficult for the holy lands and major sects to exterminate each other, since the highest level available here is a holy weapon, and everyone has one.

Unlike the Big Dipper, where an invincible god-king wielding an imperial weapon can sweep away a holy land.

The Ziwei sect has a long history of destroying sacred sites, resulting in a greater number of contemporary lineages. The competition among various sects allows the cultivation world to unleash even greater potential.

"Sun God Cult, are you trying to protect the murderer?" The old leader of the Tianyang Sect was wearing a fiery red Taoist robe embroidered with a picture of a golden crow soaring through the sky.

He stepped forward, his gaze as cold as lightning, staring intently at the Holy City of the Sun.

"It's no easy feat for the Sun God Cult to have survived to this day. Jiang Ming, don't ruin your own life!"

"Hand over the murderer, or you will be making an enemy of my Tianyang Sect, and the price you pay is not something your Sun God Sect can afford!"

"Alas, the Holy Emperor's lineage once ruled over the four seas and eight wastelands, how glorious it was! Now even a mere Tianyang Sect dares to attack our doorstep." Someone sighed.

"Yes, back when the Sun God Cult was at its peak, it would even pass on some cultivation techniques to outsiders and help various races. Many lineages of the Ziwei Sect have benefited from their kindness, but now..."

“The Sun God Cult has been glorious long enough; it’s time to relinquish the world. If they lack strength, they can’t blame others.” Some were indifferent.

"The favors done back then have long been repaid over the years, so why bring up the past again?"

As the cultivators of Tianyang Gate watched with predatory eyes and the heroes whispered amongst themselves, another sun rose from the ancient city.

"The mortals have come from millions of miles away to pay homage to the gods. Why do they not worship now?"

A haughty voice rang out as Jin Shanshan pulled the Sun God Chariot to the outside of the Holy City, standing in opposition to the powerful figures of the Tianyang Sect.

Even though his side was outnumbered and outmatched, Jin Shanshan still exuded an aura of arrogance that made him seem indifferent to the world.

I am the First General under Empress Nannan!
The old sect leader stared at the Sun God Chariot, his eyes flashing. It was indeed the Sun God Bronze and the Holy Golden Crow Dao Bone. If they offered it to the Golden Crow Clan, the Heavenly Sun Sect would surely receive tremendous benefits.

"This divine chariot is clearly a treasure of the Golden Crow clan. A vile beast, a petty thief, stole the Golden Crow's supreme treasure, killed Fellow Daoist Gu Jiu in Zhenxian Ancient City, and still dares to parade it around. Do you know that this is disrupting the peace between the human race and the Golden Crow clan, and has already caused a huge disaster?"

The old sect leader fabricated a story and pinned a huge accusation on Qin Sheng and his group.

"When the Golden Crow is enraged, blood will flow like rivers. Because of your mistakes, countless people will be implicated. You sinners of the human race, why don't you admit your wrongdoing!"

Even those who didn't care about the Holy Emperor's legacy couldn't help but frown at this moment.

What a treacherous person.

“Barking wildly.” Qin Sheng uttered four words, and one hand reached out from behind the divine curtain, like the hand of heaven.

Sometimes, traitors are more hateful than enemies of other races.

"Unrepentant, yet daring to resist."

The old cult leader also made a ruthless move, with a fiery world solidifying in the sky, creating the Heavenly Dao of Fire, and becoming the sole ruler of the world.

"For the sake of peace between the human race and the Golden Crow race, today not only you, you madman, but the Sun God Cult must also pay the price to appease the Golden Crow King's anger and beg for his forgiveness!"

As the fiery world pressed down, the other powerful figures of the Heavenly Sun Sect also joined forces, pouring their power into it to jointly evolve this world, creating countless layers of shadows and myriad transformations.

"Tianyang Ten Directions Realm, this is the secret technique of the Tianyang Sect, said to have evolved from a peerless sacred technique!"

"A combined attack from numerous powerful beings—even a fellow living fossil couldn't withstand it!"

This strike was incredibly powerful, enough to pierce through the laws and open up the darkness.

"Our ancestors provided a safe haven for humanity, allowing you to live with dignity."

Qin Sheng's voice came from inside the chariot, indifferent and calm.

"Now that you're willing to kneel, you don't need to get up."

A black divine tower emerged from Qin Sheng's hand, its black energy surging, and an endless dark world unfolded.

In this world, all laws and origins have been devoured, as if an infinite abyss has descended upon the human world, eroding everything.

The sky was obscured, the sun lost its color, and the world was plunged into ultimate darkness.

The fiery world swept over, but was swallowed by darkness, without causing the slightest ripple.

Then the dark abyss expanded, without any earth-shattering power, only a chilling cold that penetrated to the soul.

"A divine weapon of kings!" someone exclaimed.

In the Ziwei cultivation world, sacred weapons are treasures that protect the sect and rarely appear in the world. A king-level divine weapon is already a treasure among treasures, and one can be invincible with it.

Only Yi Qingwu and Jiang Ming felt a little strange. With the strength of the master of the Eight Views Palace, why would he need to use a king-level divine weapon to deal with Tianyang Old Monster?
What seemed like a long time was actually just a moment. The powerful figures of Tianyang Sect didn't even have a chance to run away. No matter what supernatural powers or secret treasures they displayed, it was all in vain, and they all fell into the dark abyss.

The king is unstoppable!
The next second, the power of the Dark Abyss entered their bodies, and their Dao principles, magic power, and primordial spirit were all swallowed up, causing their life force to suddenly disappear.

Then their bodies fell, crashing to the ground, each one kneeling.

The world was silent, and all sounds were still.

"Tianyang Sect, destroyed today."

The deities of Qin Sheng's Dao Palace emerged from the Sun God Chariot and soared into the void. Where they went is self-evident.

The dark realm gradually shrank, and light returned to the world, but the chill in people's hearts remained as solid as ice that had stood for millennia.

"More than ten powerful figures from the Tianyang Sect have died just like that. No wonder it is an invincible king-level divine weapon." Someone swallowed hard.

"He's too ruthless, second only to the master of the Eight Views Palace."

"How many powerful figures have died in the Ziwei cultivation world in just a few months?"

"First there was the master of the Eight Views Palace, then this master of the Dark Tower, blood flowed like a river."

The Sun God Chariot started moving, ignoring everyone else, and headed towards the Sun King's Court, leaving behind only a bunch of jaws.

"What do you want to do?" Yi Qingwu asked, puzzled.

Why use the King's Divine Weapon?

She doesn't understand.

"This is not something a maid like you should be asking."

Yi Qingwu: "..."

The distance of thousands of miles flashed by, and the Sun Court was already in sight.

This place is majestic and magnificent, with endless sacred mountains standing tall, and deep within it lies a continuous celestial palace, just like an ancient heavenly court.

"As expected of the Holy Emperor's Mountain Gate, hmm?"

Qin Sheng's expression shifted. In his perception, there was a handsome young man with a fair complexion, who was furtively observing the Sun King's Court, holding something in his hand, as if he were investigating something.

Under Qin Sheng's all-seeing eye, he could clearly see that this person's current appearance was a disguise; his true face was...

"Holy crap, Duan De?"

The crowd looked for him thousands of times, but suddenly looking back, he found that person in a dimly lit place.
