Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 719
Chapter 717 A Perfect Plan
“My dear daughter, are you saying that after you came back this time, you have become more determined to become the Human Emperor?” Ji Zhi looked at Ji Kongkong’s stubborn expression, feeling a little distressed.
This child was so obedient when she was young, why did she change when she grew up?
She gave up the position of Emperor Zhou and insisted on becoming the Human Emperor.
Is the Human Emperor something a normal person can do? Your father was not even among the top three candidates at that time.
Look at who were the top three at that time, a female violent maniac and two henchmen.
Ji Kongkong nodded firmly: “This time I went to a place called Zhoutian World and met a man with the same name and surname as Uncle Jiang. He has fought for his ideals all his life. I want to be like him.”
“Becoming the Zhou Emperor can also realize your dream.” Ji Zhi hurriedly persuaded.
Other families are scrambling to become emperors, but their Great Zhou is different. They don’t want the throne even if it is given for free.
“That’s different. My dream is to establish universal order.”
Ji Zhi continued, “Father is old, and your brothers and sisters are insignificant. If you don’t become the Emperor of Zhou, who will?”
Ji Kongkong glanced at his father and said, “If you had said that before, I would have believed you. You’ve now reached the Fusion Stage, and your lifespan has greatly increased. When I step down from the throne of Human Emperor, you’ll still be in your prime.”
“In short, I’m determined. I must compete with my peers for the throne and prove that I’m the most suitable one!” Ji Kongkong said, turning and leaving, her high ponytail tossed in a dashing manner.
Watching her daughter retreat, Ji Zhi sighed. She knew she was right. After all, who doesn’t dream of becoming the Human Emperor of Jiang?
“So, Jiang Li, if I were to go back in time and teach you a lesson, you’d understand, right?”
Ji Zhi smiled strangely.
His plan was flawless. No matter how powerful Jiang Li was, he would be powerless against the attacks of the past.
…
Seeing Emperor Shun welcome him with such fanfare, Jiang Li was deeply moved.
“I thought the River of Time would reject me, but I didn’t expect you to welcome me so much. I’ll definitely come to the River of Time often.”
Emperor Shun quickly folded up the banner and drove the little white fish away.
“There’s nothing in the River of Time worth Emperor Jiang’s concern. It would be boring to come here. You should stay in Jiuzhou more.”
“I have important information to share with Emperor Jiang.”
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. “What information?”
Emperor Shun said mysteriously, “Ji Zhi is preparing to return to the past and embarrass your youth. As his ancestor, I have an obligation to correct the mistakes of my descendants. However, this also concerns you, so perhaps it is best to leave it to you to handle.”
Jiang Li immediately understood Emperor Shun’s earnest intentions.
“But wouldn’t Ji Zhi’s actions cause my younger self to have nonexistent memories, thus causing a distortion of time and space, creating a parallel world?”
A Yuanzu wouldn’t ask such a foolish question, but this was Jiang Li after all. Thinking of this, Emperor Shun replied, “No, such a minor deviation wouldn’t cause a parallel world to form. Furthermore, the Way of Time has self-healing abilities. After you’re beaten, the Way of Time will seal your memories. Once Ji Zhi is done and returns to normal time, the seal will automatically lift.”
“That’s right,” Jiang Li understood. “Then what do I need to do?”
Emperor Shun smiled. “Ji Zhi is going back to when you were eighteen. You just need to go back there and stop Ji Zhi’s actions, and try not to let anyone from that time know.”
Emperor Shun invited Jiang Li aboard and rowed the boat from the River of Time, representing the underworld, to the River of Time, representing the Nine Provinces.
“This is it,”
Jiang Li plopped down.
Emperor Shun smiled and waited a moment before a familiar figure arrived from downstream.
It was Ji Zhi.
Ji Zhi was stunned. He hadn’t expected to see his ancestor, Emperor Shun, here. For a moment, he was so excited that he didn’t know what to say.
Emperor Shun remained silent, his eyes, shrouded in the vicissitudes of life, as if they could speak. Ji Zhi understood his ancestor’s meaning—go ahead and teach Jiang Li a lesson, I’ll take care of you.
Ji Zhi also plopped down.
…
“Where… is this place?” Young Jiang Li awoke in the dilapidated house, bewilderedly surveying his surroundings.
“Where was I before? Why am I here again?” He recalled his experiences on Blue Star and the court verdict, but couldn’t remember what happened afterward, as if a memory had been snatched away.
Memories flooded into Jiang Li’s mind like a sea of water, the overwhelming weight of them giving him a splitting headache. As he sorted through his memories, the pain subsided.
“So I’ve traveled to a world of immortal cultivation, and this is the Jiuzhou Continent. I’m from the Jiang family of Qingcheng, in the Great Zhou Dynasty. My father was the previous clan leader.”
“Jiang Yixing is the son of the current clan leader. He loved to bully my predecessor, and my predecessor, unable to bear the bullying, died in anger.”
“This is truly…” Young Jiang Li was speechless. What kind of thing was this?
“In the world of immortal cultivation, you’re not cultivating, but constantly dwelling on the fact that you’re the son of the former clan leader?”
“Fortunately, judging by my memory, the Great Zhou is a country that respects the law. Everyone is outwardly reasonable. It’s not a bad start, but these relatives are a bit annoying.”
“I’m still practicing the ‘Spiritual Energy Diagram.’ According to my memory, this is how I should circulate the Qi?” Young Jiang Li attempted a small Qi cycle, finding it quite strenuous. It was obvious
he had neglected his cultivation in the past. “Even with the weakest Five Elements spiritual roots, it’s not a useless constitution. As long as I can cultivate,” the young Jiang Li smiled. He enjoyed the feeling of cultivation and found it quite comfortable.
Five Elements spiritual roots were within his acceptable range. After all, over 99% of people have them, so he was, at best, unremarkable.
Unremarkable was fine.
“The most important thing now is to see just how vast this Kyushu Continent is.” Young Jiang Li picked up a few books from his bedside table. They were covered in thick dust, suggesting the original Jiang Li hadn’t read much.
“‘Introduction to Cultivation,’ ‘A Prospect of Cultivation,’ ‘On the Customs and Folkways of Kyushu.’ The names are all quite ordinary.”
The young Jiang Li flipped through the book and soon immersed himself in it, attracted by the description of the magnificent Nine Provinces.
Several days passed, and he kept reading without even thinking of sleeping, as if he had slept for a long time before and would not need to sleep for the next few days.
The young Jiang Li closed the book and stretched: “The levels of
cultivation are similar to the novels I read in my previous life, with Qi training, Yuanying, tribulation, and Mahayana.” “The Mahayana stage and ascension are too far away from me, I dare not hope for it. Well, then I will set a small goal first and cultivate to the late stage of Qi training.”
“This Nine Provinces is so big, and the Great Zhou Dynasty alone is bigger than the Blue Star in my previous life. Why should I stay in the Jiang family in Qingcheng?”
Jiang Li looked at himself who had just traveled through time above Qingcheng and smiled.
He was really naive at that time.
