As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills-Novel2

608 The Feather King’s Ambition

The Qing emperor?

According to An Daoran, Zhan Lingfeng had followed the Qing emperor to the Upper Realm.

Then what right did the Qing emperor have to go to the Upper Realm?

Did he become an immortal?

“Impossible. According to the historical records, as early as the later period of the Yuan Wei Dynasty, which was ten thousand years ago, no one could ascend to the Upper Realm, let alone become an immortal.”

Normally, it was impossible to ascend to the Upper Realm, unless one was selected by the powerful people of the upper realm. However, in most cases, the people of the upper realm could not enter the Lower Realm.

“Unless they’re from a powerful faction that has the qualifications to do so… I need to figure this out. What’s going on?”

Jiang Ming’s mind kept racing, but he could not find an answer.

“Alright,” the black sword said. “Don’t think about it for now. You’re going to the Long family anyway. Give them the Dragon Sword. You’ll naturally learn more secrets when the time comes.”

“Don’t think that you’ve gotten everything figured out. It’s possible that everything you know is just what some people want you to know. After all, the most powerful people in the world are the ones who control everything. Only those ancient sects, holy lands, and prosperous families know the truth. You have to establish a connection with them to learn the truth.”

“But didn’t you say that you wouldn’t let me join any faction?”

Jiang Ming frowned. What did the black sword mean?

“I won’t allow you to join any holy land or ancient sect and become their successor, but I didn’t say that I wouldn’t allow you to join those aristocratic families. There’s still a gap between the orthodoxy and the aristocratic families. You can even join forces like the Hall of Slaughter. There are many things you want. However, only with knowledge and experience can you achieve what you want.”

The black sword spoke in a particularly serious tone. As an ancient existence that had survived countless eras ago, its insights in many aspects were incomparable to Jiang Ming’s. Even some existences that had lived for tens of thousands of years might not be comparable to him.

All of this was just the tip of the iceberg of the black sword’s understanding.

Jiang Ming suddenly felt lucky that he did not insist on rejecting the black sword when he met it. Otherwise, how could he learn so many things?

“Friend, thank you.”

Jiang Ming thanked him sincerely, which stunned the black sword. It did not understand what was wrong with Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming did not explain. He led the black sword to Gongye Jiu’s side.

“Master Jiu, are you planning to go to the Long family with us?”

Although Jiang Ming had something to hide from Gongye Jiu, it was related to himself. It was even related to the black sword’s previous life. He did not want the black sword’s secret to be discovered by others. Otherwise, he would be in trouble and the black sword would be in a desperate situation.

In other matters, Jiang Ming had unconditional trust in Gongye Jiu.

Gongye Jiu rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice, “I won’t be going. Back then, I went to the Long family and caused a little trouble. I guess the Long family dislikes me.”

A little trouble?

Jiang Ming frowned subconsciously and looked at him in disbelief. In fact, he really could not believe it. What kind of disaster could make Gongye Jiu, the grandson of a Saint, not be welcomed by the Long family?

Gongye Jiu was revered wherever he went. How could there be any force that would not welcome him?

“Unless the disaster that Master Jiu caused is very extraordinary… It seems that I have underestimated Master Jiu. He must have a lot of secrets.”

Jiang Ming thought to himself. He knew that Gongye Jiu and the Long family definitely had some bad blood, but that was Gongye Jiu’s personal affair. Jiang Ming could not continue asking and could only change the topic.

“Master Jiu, do you know the current situation in the Qing Kingdom?”

In this strictly hierarchical world, especially in the vast world of immortal cultivation, the strength of a force that could be called a kingdom would definitely not be weak.

Even though it was no longer an empire, and the Qing royal family’s prestige was far from what it had been in the past, it was still a powerful existence that no one could underestimate.

Upon hearing Jiang Ming’s question, Gongye Jiu pondered for a while before he slowly said, “Trust me. Although the current Qing royal family is far from what it used to be, there are definitely many powerful people hidden among them. It’s better for you to be careful. Without enough power, don’t get involved in the conflict between the Long family and other forces and the Qing royal family. Of course, you’ll get involved sooner or later, so you have to be careful! It also requires you to continuously improve your foundation and increase your strength. Only then can you become stronger and better control a country, understand?”

At that moment, Jiang Ming was listening attentively. When Gongye Jiu finished speaking, Jiang Ming immediately said, “Then I’ll prepare to set off now… But before that, should I let An’an break through to the Soul Formation Realm in advance?” action

If she could break through to the Soul Formation Realm, Zhu Anan’s strength would rise to a whole new level. She would be able to crush all early-stage Soul Formation Realm experts, and even many mid-stage Soul Formation Realm experts would not be her match.

In the vast world of immortal cultivation, the Nascent Soul Realm was nothing, and there were indeed many Soul Formation Realm cultivators. However, in a single force, the strength of the Soul Formation Realm was still not to be underestimated.

Especially with the Qing royal family’s current situation, it was hard to say if there would be a few Deity Transformation Realm experts among them. Thus, for now, breaking through to the Soul Formation Realm was enough.

At this moment, in the Feather Kingdom, the Feather King sat on the throne. He was high and mighty like a god.

He was constantly building his image. He wanted to become the supreme ruler.

The supreme ruler was a being who wielded the two great powers of theocracy and royalty!

Since ancient times, theocracy and royal power were mostly separated, but in some prosperous countries, the supreme ruler could often gather theocracy and royal power.

The Feather King used a large amount of time to eliminate groups of dissidents and condense his own powerful strength, thus allowing his combat strength to rise steadily.

“He’s so strong!”

When many people saw this scene, their expressions changed wildly. They realized that their ruler’s strength was constantly increasing.

“The royal family, which has been declining for many years and has gradually lost control of the Feather Kingdom, is now growing stronger and rising up with the ambition of the king!”

“It seems that one day, the king really has a chance to regain his former glory, but it will still be very difficult to defeat Reverend Mo.”

“I don’t know if the king will fight with Reverend Mo in the final stage. Without Reverend Mo’s intervention, the Mo family alone is not a match for the king.”

Many people thought to themselves.

Of course, the current Feather King was only gradually establishing his own divine authority. Otherwise, he would not be able to compete with those sects and forces.
