740 The Dao Mark Is About to Condense (2)

When he was still in service of the country, he had once insisted to let Great Zhao attack Great Xia in the north and recover their lost land. Therefore, he knew very well that this was definitely not a weak country. If the Great Xia was weak, there would not be so many people objecting to his proposal to attack.

But what was going on now? Even someone as powerful as the Great Xia was actually fighting the barbarians in the extreme north.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t the Great Xia crush these barbarian tribes in the four northern states with ease?

After all, in the eyes of the four countries of the Central Plains, the four northern states were bitter and cold places. It was almost impossible for the people to survive normally. The barbarians there were also weak and could be bullied by others.

“When did these barbarians become so powerful?” Chen Tangwen stared at the battle below. The more he looked, the more shocked he became. He did not even notice that Cui Heng had stopped flying on the cloud.

At this moment, both sides had already begun to fight. With the advantage of the cavalry, the barbarians actually had the absolute advantage and suppressed Great Xia’s army.

After a few rounds of cavalry charge, the Great Xia army actually began to collapse. A large number of soldiers scattered in all directions and fled with all their might.

“How, how is this possible?!” Chen Tangwen was shocked and almost could not believe his eyes. He muttered, “This is the Great Xia army. This is Great Xia…”

All along, Great Zhao and Great Xia were like old enemies. The two sides would fight frequently.

In the end, although both sides enjoyed some wins and losses, Great Xia was still slightly stronger. They even relied on a few key victories to occupy a few of Great Zhao’s territory.

Now, the Great Xia soldiers who could defeat Great Zhao were actually defeated so quickly by this group of barbarians. If it were the Great Zhao army…

“No, no, how did this happen?!” Chen Tangwen shook his head, his face slightly pale.

Actually, he already had an answer in his heart.

If this group of barbarians attacked Great Zhao’s army, the outcome would definitely be much easier than attacking Great Xia’s army.

If one day, these ignorant people broke through Great Xia and continued to attack Great Zhao from the south, it would probably be impossible for Great Zhao to resist.

“What do you think?” Cui Heng’s voice sounded from the side.

“…” Chen Tangwen suddenly woke up. After regaining his senses, he hurriedly bowed to Cui Heng and said, “Ancestral Master, disciple was in a daze.”

“You were still the Minister of War of Great Zhao previously. It would be strange if you didn’t become dazed when you saw this situation.” Cui Heng chuckled and said, “Let’s go. Cultivate well in the temple in the future.

After you transcend the mortal world, you will discover that the changes in the dynasties of the mortal world are just fleeting clouds. It’s not worth your attention.”

“Ancestral Master, I’m afraid I can’t ignore these things for the rest of my life,” Chen Tangwen said solemnly. “Even if it’s not for Great Zhao, it’s for the people.”

“I’ll ask you again after your cultivation is successful,” Cui Heng said with a smile.

Actually, he had already guessed what Chen Tangwen would do in the future. This matched his concept of molding Immortal Wind Monastery into a hidden sect.

Then, Cui Heng brought Chen Tangwen, Jue Xin, Jiang Xi, and the old man to continue flying northeast. After arriving at a quiet valley, they landed.

He raised his hand gently and waved it. A large empty space appeared in the valley. Immediately after, an ancient Daoist temple was built out of thin air.

The words written on the plaque in front of this Daoist temple were “Immortal Wind Monastery”.

“In the future, this will be the base of the Immortal Wind Monastery.” Cui Heng smiled and said, “I’ll teach you the martial techniques of the Immortal Wind Monastery here. Just cultivate properly.”

With that, he took out three more little tomatoes from the Grotto-Heaven and threw them to Chen Tangwen, Juexin, and Jiang Xi. “You can plant these three fruits and take good care of them in the future. You can obtain three fruit trees.”

Chen Tangwen, Juexin, and Jiang Xi hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

“Thank you for your gift, Ancestral Master!”

“Thank you for your gift, Ancestral Master!”

“Thank you for your gift, Ancestral Master!”

… .

After Cui Heng brought the three people from Immortal Wind Monastery here.

In the next ten years, he never left this valley. He taught the three of them martial cultivation all day long, guiding them in their cultivation doubts and teaching them carefully.

Monk Jue Xin had already unlocked the divine treasures in his body and possessed several powerful special abilities. He had successfully stepped into the Deity Realm.

Chen Tangwen had already established a small world and stepped into the Inner World realm. He had become a top expert in the world that was rarely seen.

Jiang Xi, this little girl, had also improved at lightning speed. In just ten years, she had already reached the peak of the Qi Transformation realm and was about to open the Profound Gate between her brows and become a Grandmaster.

The days seemed to continue peacefully without any waves.

However, on this day, Chen Tangwen suddenly found Cui Heng. As soon as they met, he knelt on the ground and said respectfully, “Ancestral Master, I want to leave the temple for a period of time.”

“Oh?” Cui Heng raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard that. He said calmly, “As expected, you still can’t let go. Did you hear the news when you were out shopping?”

The valley where the Immortal Wind Monastery was located was isolated from the world, but the people here were not completely cut off from the outside world.

Every seven days, Chen Tangwen would go out to buy some food. At the same time, he would inquire about the outside world and understand the situation outside.

Just a few days ago, there was news from the Great Zhao that the barbarians had marched south and were about to reach Linjing City.

If this continued, Great Zhao’s Linjing City would be breached.

At that time, the last Central Plains dynasty would be destroyed by the barbarians of the extreme north, and countless commoners would be slaughtered.

This was something Chen Tangwen could not accept.

“Ancestral Master, please fulfill my wish.” Chen Tangwen lowered his head and said extremely sincerely, “I promise not to reveal my identity as a disciple of the Immortal Wind Monastery and not let incur the rage of the barbarians against us…”

“No.” Cui Heng interrupted Chen Tangwen’s words and said in a low voice, “I can allow you to go out, but you don’t have to hide your identity as a disciple of the Immortal Wind Monastery. If the barbarians dare to come here, there’s no need for them to go back.” “Yes! Thank you, Ancestral Master!” Chen Tangwen immediately revealed an ecstatic expression. In his opinion, obtaining the Ancestral Master’s support was more important than anything else.

Then, after some preparation, Chen Tangwen left the calm valley and the peaceful Immortal Wind Monastery, embarking on the path back to the capital.

He had gone to relieve the regret in his heart, and also to protect the countless citizens of Linjing and even Great Zhao so that they would not be slaughtered by the barbarians.

A month later, news about Chen Tangwen spread throughout the world.

When the barbarian army besieged the capital of Great Zhao, Chen Tangwen, who had been stripped of his position and exiled to the Southern Border, suddenly returned.

At this moment, Chen Tangwen claimed to be a disciple of the Immortal Wind Monastery and possessed extremely powerful strength. When he was guarding the city, he actually used his top-notch martial technique to rush into the middle of the army and took the head of the barbarian general as if he had entered an uninhabited place.

Such an action caused chaos in the barbarian army. They could only retreat helplessly, allowing Great Zhao to regain a chance to breathe.

As soon as the news was released, the world was shocked.

The discussion about Chen Tangwen and Immortal Wind Monastery suddenly became the most popular topic in the world.

At the same time, Cui Heng, who was in the Immortal Wind Monastery, could clearly feel that his Dao mark as the Ancestral Master of the Immortal Wind Monastery had become more corporeal. Soon, he could go back in time.

The Late-stage Return to Void Realm was right in front of him.
