Shrouding the Sky: The System Arrived Thirty Years Early

Cession of territory and reparations

The sudden sound startled everyone, and when they looked in the direction of the sound, their shock was beyond words.

The divine source that appeared beside Luo Qianqiu was actually a flawless block of divine source, without even a single crack, clearly formed from divine source liquid!

Among them was a burly man who looked to be in his thirties, with a full head of black hair and an air of domineering charisma.

At this moment, the people of the Purple Mansion were horrified, and their previous joy was gone.

The reason is that the Jiang family's foundation is that they can seal themselves with divine source liquid, so that they are immune to the passage of time and will not die when exposed to light. This method of self-sealing is many times more perfect than that of Master Ziyang.

Moreover, the aura emanating from the other party was clearly that of an ancient sage, whose vitality was obviously at its peak.

A sage with a long lifespan is practically invincible in this world!

"Brother Qingzhi, it has been nine thousand years since we last met. I never thought we would meet again." Master Ziyang's divine sense emanated from the Divine Source Block, and he was somewhat moved.

"So it was him, Jiang Qingzhi, the prodigy of the Jiang family nine thousand years ago. He was one of the most outstanding prodigies in the Eastern Wilderness during that era, and his combat strength was no less than that of Master Ziyang."

Outside the Purple Mansion, an old antique who was watching the battle straightened up and revealed Jiang Qingzhi's background.

Suddenly, the crowd stirred; it was yet another peerless figure from nine thousand years ago.

"This is the power of aristocratic families and holy lands. It is never just about their combat strength on the surface, but also about the powerful foundation hidden beneath the surface."

At the edge of the Purple Mansion Divine Land, Jiang Qingzhi confronted True Man Ziyang and slowly said, "Ziyang, you are old, your life force is depleted, and you only have the strength to prolong your life. Once you are born, you will surely perish."

"Indeed, that's why I don't want to fight the Jiang family; I only want to resolve our past grievances," said Master Ziyang.

"Heh, that's not up to me to decide," Jiang Qingzhi chuckled, looking at Luo Qianqiu and asking, "What does Little Ancestor think?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on that young man; his attitude would determine the course of this great battle.

It can be said that Luo Qianqiu could change the power structure of the Eastern Wilderness in the blink of an eye.

"Little Ancestor, you don't need to worry too much. Just follow your heart and do whatever you want," Jiang Qingzhi said, showing no regard for the Purple Mansion and displaying a very domineering attitude.

"Zi Yang is very strong. Back then, we were evenly matched, but times have changed. His blood and energy have dried up, and he no longer has the strength to fight. If our little ancestor wants to fight, I, Jiang Qingzhi, can destroy the entire Zi Mansion by myself."

"But then you'd have to be born?" Luo Qianqiu was a little puzzled. People with deep inner strength usually don't want to be born, but Jiang Qingzhi's attitude gave him a feeling of eagerness.

"Hahaha, little ancestor, you don't know, but whether we go to war or not, I am going to be born today. You have a long road ahead, and you need an old guy like me to protect you for a while," Jiang Qingzhi said.

During this time, the Jiang family's resources have also been busy. With the birth of the ancestor's son, someone had to be born to protect him.

However, the question of who should be born remained a subject of endless debate among the family members until Luo Qianqiu was about to leave the Jiang family to embark on a distant expedition to the Purple Mansion. It was then that the choice was finally made, and that person was Jiang Qingzhi.

He is considered to be in the best condition among all the members of the Jiang family. Even if he is born, he will not die upon exposure to the light and will live for a period of time.

By the time their lifespans were exhausted, Luo Qianqiu had grown up, and Jiang Qingzhi had completed his mission.

No one knew this news except for a group of powerful figures, including Lord Jiang. That's why he didn't even think of using the Jiang family's resources when the imperial weapon was being held back.

Luo Qianqiu nodded, but did not immediately give the order. Instead, he looked at Master Ziyang and said in a deep voice, "Tell me your conditions. What price are you willing to pay to resolve this grudge?"

Master Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing there was still room for discussion.

Whether the Purple Mansion can continue depends on his sincerity.

"All the treasures in the Purple Mansion Sacred Land's treasury—pure sources, exotic sources, divine sources, various precious medicines, and refined elixirs—will belong entirely to the Jiang family. We will leave nothing behind. What do you think, Prince Jiang?" True Person Ziyang's sincerity was overflowing, offering the entire sect's wealth.

The wealth of the gate was handed over without hesitation.

The onlookers were astonished. The Purple Mansion Holy Land had stood in the Eastern Wilderness for hundreds of thousands of years, enduring through the ages and accumulating countless resources. Yet now it was abandoning them all. This decisiveness was beyond the expectations of ordinary people.

Everyone thought the matter was settled; the Jiang family couldn't possibly refuse, and the Purple Mansion's sincerity was evident.

But Luo Qianqiu shook his head decisively and said, "It's not enough. If I give the order to destroy the Purple Mansion, these resources will be mine. I don't need you to give them to me."

People were shocked. They hadn't expected Luo Qianqiu to have such a big appetite. That was the entire accumulation of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, and he still wasn't satisfied!

"If Emperor Jiang says this, I'm afraid he already has a plan in mind. Please speak frankly," said Master Ziyang calmly.

Clearly, he was prepared to give everything; as long as the other party didn't go to extremes, there was nothing he couldn't accept.

As for the lost resources, they will come back sooner or later as long as the people are still alive.

Luo Qianqiu crossed his arms, tapped his fingers on his arms a few times, and said in a deep voice, "In addition to the conditions you just mentioned, I also want everyone in Yang Jie's lineage, including all his subordinates. Furthermore, the source mine outside the Primordial Ancient Mine of the Purple Mansion should also be allocated to the Jiang family."

These words immediately shocked everyone present.

The fate of Yang Jie's lineage was not a big deal, as people had expected it. However, the source mine outside the Primordial Ancient Mine was somewhat beyond expectations.

It should be noted that the Northern Region is rich in mineral resources, with the area around the Primordial Ancient Mine being the most important. It is one of the lifebloods of the major holy lands and a treasure trove that continuously produces source stones.

That source mine is a strategic resource point that no holy land family can afford to lose.

Now, however, Luo Qianqiu has set his sights on that source mine, truly intending to seize the lifeblood of the Purple Mansion.

The high-ranking members of the Purple Mansion were all startled and quickly looked at True Person Ziyang. They wanted to dissuade him, but before they could speak, True Person Ziyang agreed directly.

"Yes, that source mine purple mansion can be handed over at any time."

"Ancestor—" The Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion hesitated, as he felt the price was far too high.

"Alright, let's broaden our horizons. As long as we're still alive, we'll be able to make a comeback sooner or later. We can give up all other material possessions."

Master Ziyang was very decisive and made the decision immediately.

After saying those words, he looked at Yang Jie and sighed, "Don't blame me. For the sake of the entire Purple Mansion, I have to make a choice."

"Master, please don't do this, save me—" Yang Jie knelt down in fear, his voice filled with sorrow.

His pleas were to no avail. Although the people of the Purple Mansion felt sorry for him, no one stepped forward to plead for him.

Ultimately, the great calamity that befell the Purple Mansion Holy Land this time was entirely caused by Yang Jie's lineage.

It's reasonable for whoever caused the trouble to bear the consequences.

"Seal his divine power and hand him over to the Jiang family," Master Ziyang indifferently ordered.

"No----"

Yang Jieteng stood up abruptly, trying to resist, but in an instant, he was subdued by the group, and his vast and terrifying divine power was sealed.

"Junior brother, don't blame me. If we don't compromise, the entire Purple Mansion will be destroyed." The Purple Mansion Saint Master felt reluctant, but still carried the person to the front of the Jiang family's camp and threw him over.

Then, Yang Jie's lineage was detained and personally delivered to Luo Qianqiu by the Purple Mansion Holy Land.

There were several thousand people in total, including men and women, young and old, with cultivation levels ranging from the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm to the Sendai Secret Realm.

Their divine powers were sealed away, and now they knelt on the ground like mortals, awaiting the judgment of fate.

Luo Qianqiu felt no pity for these people. He used his divine power to activate the armor on his body, and the supreme holy might spread, covering the sky and destroying the ten directions of the heavens.

"boom!"

Blood surged forth; the power of the holy weapon's single strike annihilated thousands, their crimson blood staining the divine soil of the Purple Mansion.

At the same time, Luo Qianqiu's mind stirred, and he brought up the task panel. It showed that the task was completed, and the reward was two units of Divine Source Liquid.

This is absolutely a supreme treasure. Just look at the difference between Jiang Qingzhi and Master Ziyang to know how precious the Divine Source Liquid is.

Nine thousand years ago, the two were evenly matched, but as time has passed, the former is still at the height of his power, while the latter has become depleted and can only barely survive.

The difference between the two is that the former uses divine source liquid to seal itself and remain immortal, while the latter uses divine source blocks to build up and then engrave Dao patterns to barely slow down the loss of life force.

Luo Qianqiu closed the panel and did not claim the reward immediately.

Divine Source Liquid, a rare and wondrous substance, is formed from the very essence of heaven and earth. Initially a liquid, it quickly solidifies into Divine Source Blocks if not properly stored. While still precious, its value drops dramatically and it can no longer compare to Divine Source Liquid.

Therefore, Luo Qianqiu planned to find a way to preserve the Divine Source Liquid after returning to the Jiang family before claiming the reward.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the handover of resources between the Jiang family and the Zi Mansion went very smoothly without any unpleasantness.

This incident caused a great sensation in the five major domains, and the Jiang family became the center of discussion.

Luo Qianqiu, in particular, is mentioned repeatedly by people.

But all of this was irrelevant to Luo Qianqiu; he paid no attention to the turmoil outside.

After returning to the Jiang family, Luo Qianqiu immediately immersed himself in the library, where he found a method for preserving the Divine Source Liquid.

After half a month, he finally succeeded in sealing the Divine Source Liquid in a jade bottle.

As you claim your reward, the tasks on the panel will be updated.

"Collect three of the Nine Secrets before the age of one hundred. Reward: A copy of the Secret Technique Creator's Insights."

It must be said that this reward is quite amazing, equivalent to the creator of the secret technique personally teaching you how to cultivate this secret method.

The moment Luo Qianqiu saw the reward, he was determined to get it.

"I have already collected the three Nine Secrets. I now possess the Battle Saint Technique. I only need two more to complete the mission."

As for the remaining two of the Nine Secrets, Luo Qianqiu already had ideas in mind.
