Chapter 1834: Intimidation
When did it become barbarian territory"Shen Changqing sneered.That demonic spirit will say: "The desolate mansion that Shen Zhenzhou mentioned, was before my barbarian tribe arrived. Now that my barba..."Top-tier Divine Lord Inheritance!"
When news of Qingzong spread within the Shangguan family, all high-level members of the Shangguan family gathered together.
With the fall of Shangguan Kuangshi, a multitude of powerful warriors including Shangguan Xuanzhen perished in the ancient realm. Now, the Shangguan Clan is left with only one divine sovereign ruling over them, Shangguan Zong, who possesses the strength of a fourth-ranked divine sovereign.
Therefore.

In this way, Shangguan Zong naturally became the head of the Shangguan family today.
"The top-tier Celestial Sovereign inheritance, my Shangguan family must obtain it. Furthermore, this is also an opportunity for us to slightly improve relations with the Qingzong."
Since the fall of powerful figures like Ancestor in the ancient world, numerous forces have been secretly eyeing each other with greed.
If not for the consideration of Qingzong, whether my Shangguan family could preserve its ancestral foundation would be a question.
In the grand hall, Shangguan Zong looked at the many clan elders before him, his face unusually grave.
The remaining elders heard this and their expressions also became unpleasant.
Now, the Shangguan family is on the brink of ruin.
Back when powerful figures like Shangguan Xuanzhen hadn't fallen, although the Shangguan Clan had declined, they still possessed some foundation. On a mere three-tenths of an acre in the ancient desolate land, they weren't afraid of many forces.
But now things are different.
Many powerful figures from the Shangguan family fell in the ancient realm, and much of their heritage was also taken in, ultimately remaining in the ancient realm.
Now the ancient world is broken.
As for where these things went, the Shangguan family is also clueless.
It's possible that it perished along with the ancient world in the spatial turbulence, or perhaps it appeared somewhere else, becoming a cultivator's opportunity.
>
But regardless of the situation, it is not related to the current Guan's family.
The foundation is lost.
Moreover, with the demise of numerous powerful individuals, hereditary families also suffered significant losses in their lineages.
If the Shangguan clan does not make changes, then in a few years they will vanish like other declining forces, completely disappearing into the river of time.
Shangguan Zong did not want to be the last head of the Shangguan family, watching helplessly as his family perished under his watch.
That's all.
The Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce's Divine Sovereign inheritance, the Shangguan family must obtain it.
Moreover.
Shàngguān Zōng also intended to use this opportunity to make it clear to Qīngzōng what the Shàngguān family meant, and see if the other party was willing to accept the possibility of the Shàngguān family.
>
Once upon a time, the Shangguan family and Shen Changqing were allies. But now their identities and statuses have completely changed.
The former fell, leaving only one divine sovereign to preside over it, while the latter founded Qingzong and showed great signs of becoming the overlord of Guhuang.
"Does the head of the family want me to make the Shangguan Clan a vassal of the Qingzong"
The speaker was an elder from the Shangguan family, named Shangguan Xiong.
Shangguan Zong glanced at the other party and said calmly, "If it really comes to that, becoming a vassal of Qingzong wouldn't be so bad."
Speaking of which.
Shangguan Zong once again looked at the other elders and said in a loud voice, "You all should wake up. The glory of the Shangguan family has faded. With the fall of divine figures like Xuanzhen Ancestor in the ancient realm, our Shangguan family's only support has been completely broken."
If the Shangguan family wants to preserve its foundation and pass it down, then it can only bow its head and secretly accumulate strength in order to have a chance to climb to the peak again.
Otherwise, the family awaits only destruction!"
Hearing this.
The elders, such as Shangguan Xiong, fell silent again.
Although Shangguan Zong's words were harsh, they were the truth.
Now the Shangguan family, there is nothing to be proud of.
At this point, the ancient families are just a step away from extinction.
For a long time.
Shangguan Xiong sighed: "The patriarch is right, now we have no other way out!"
“To become a vassal of the Qingzong sect would be the best possible outcome, but I fear that the Qingzong of today may not even look down upon my Shangguan family.”
Once Qingzong cuts ties with the Shangguan family, then the Shangguan family will be the real trouble!
Shangguan Zong's expression grew serious.
It's still the same sentence.
The present-day Shangguan family is unlike any before it.
Whether the Qingzong would look down upon a declining ancient family is indeed a question.
or
The Shangguan clan wanted to make Qingzong take them seriously, they had to come up with something that would move him.
Otherwise.
The other party wouldn't waste their energy on a fallen family, would they

Hearing this.
Other elders were filled with sadness.

When did the Shangguan family fall to such a state, that even to become a vassal of other sects they had to consider whether the other party was willing
It wasn't that Shangguan Zong's words were problematic, they simply had to swallow their humiliation.
When the news of the divine ruler's succession spread.
Less than half a month.
The number of cultivators in Qingcheng suddenly increased several times over.

Most cultivators came out of curiosity, not expecting to receive a divine transmission from the deity. They simply wanted to witness the spectacle.

Additionally.
I just want to take this opportunity to see if I can find some opportunities.
There's no other way around this.
As for the divine master's inheritance, it goes without saying that once it is auctioned off, the price will inevitably be sky-high. If you don't have the corresponding foundation to take down the divine master's inheritance, wanting to do so is simply a pipe dream.
Let's step back a bit.
Even if one truly obtains the Divine Sovereign's inheritance, one must also have the ability to protect it.
Otherwise.
Even if you manage to get your hands on the inheritance, it's just making a wedding dress for someone else.
"Reporting to the Sect Leader, currently three-tenths of the forces from Ancient Wilderness have arrived. The remaining forces are also on their way. It is estimated that by the day of the auction, the number of Qingcheng cultivators will reach its peak."
Because of the presence of many cultivators recently, Qingcheng's tax revenue has also increased considerably.
Compared to usual times, it's about ten times the increase!
Inside the Qingcheng City Lord's Mansion, a refined middle-aged man was reporting to Shen Changqing about matters.
The other party's name was Jiang Mo, a deacon of the Qingzong and the current city lord of Qingcheng. He oversaw all the big and small affairs in Qingcheng.
Shen Changqing nodded slightly: "Now that there are many cultivators, there shouldn't be anyone causing trouble, right"
"The sect's reputation is well-known, and Qingcheng Mountain is guarded by numerous disciples. How dare the ancient wasteland forces cause trouble Even if there are some reckless ones, they have all been suppressed and haven't caused much of a stir."
Jiang Mo spoke in a low voice.
Shen Changqing raised his spirit tea, took a small sip, and then put the teacup down again.
In about ten days, there will be the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce auction. This seat does not want any trouble to arise. Anyone who causes trouble will be dealt with severely and sent straight to the Heavenly Prison. Notify their respective forces to come and pay a fine before they can be taken away.
If there's no influential party involved, then just imprison them for a hundred or eighty years and talk about it later.
"If the situation is serious, kill them on the spot and don't worry about offending other forces."
At last, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Shen Changqing's eyes.
The Qingcheng Merchant Guild's auction was related to whether he could obtain a large amount of Nether Spirit Stones, and then seize the opportunity to impact the realm of powerful cultivators.
Therefore.
Chen Changqing absolutely cannot tolerate anyone coming to destroy.
Jiang Mowen hearing this, naturally understood the other party's meaning, and solemnly said: "Sect Master can rest assured, I will manage everything myself. Otherwise, if any cultivator disrupts the Qingcheng order."
“Well, I let you command Qingcheng, which shows that I value you. If I'm not mistaken, you've been on the peak of the Divine Master for some time now, haven't you”

Once this matter is concluded, go to the Treasure Pavilion and seek a suitable divine inheritance for yourself.
>
The master's cultivation at its peak was still a bit lacking. The Azure Sect was destined to grow stronger and stronger, as would Qingcheng. If you want to secure your position as city lord, you'll need at least the cultivation of a God King.
"Many thanks, Master!"
Jiang Mo was overjoyed.
Shen Changqing's words were undoubtedly a great affirmation of himself.
Jiang Mo's single-minded focus on managing Qingcheng was naturally to advance further. Now that Shen Changqing had given him this opportunity, the city lord of Qingcheng felt deeply grateful in his heart.
Very soon.
Jiang Mo just stepped down.

Shen Changqing continued to savor the spiritual tea, leisurely watching the changes in Qingcheng.
He usually spends his time either in seclusion or battling powerful opponents, rarely having such leisurely moments.
Everyone says to practice a balance of work and leisure, Shen Changqing also understands this truth, but many times it's not that he wants to find a balance between work and leisure, but the ever-changing situation forces him to deal with various problems.
Now.
During his time in Qingcheng, Shen Changqing finally relaxed for the first time in many years since entering the underworld.
With a peaceful mind, he watched the rise and fall of tides, the flourishing and decline of beings, the transformation of the mortal world. Unknowingly, this caused some changes within him.
The progress of the original One Dao returned, advancing by an infinitesimal amount again.
This advancement may seem subtle, but if one were to seek it through seclusion, it would take at least several hundred years.
Noticing the changes in himself, Shen Changqing's lips curled into a smile, his heart feeling increasingly lighter.

"It's a pity that this kind of insight is rare, otherwise, drinking tea every day would be enough to break through. It would be a beautiful thing!"
Upon receiving Shen Changqing's order, Jiang Mo became much more ruthless in his actions. Any cultivator who dared to cause trouble, regardless of their background or status, was immediately thrown into the Heavenly Prison and notified that their backing force had to pay a fine.
Some were quite severe in their crimes, their plots particularly vicious, and they were instantly eliminated by Jiang Mo on the spot.
However.
Jiang Mo and the Qingcheng guards' strength was indeed a bit lacking. Dealing with ordinary cultivators causing trouble wouldn't be a problem.
But once a strong opponent wants to suppress them, it's not so easy.
Among them.
Just then, an old-school divine cultivator who had been causing trouble in the city appeared. He had even injured several disciples of the Qingzong sect. Just as he was gloating, Shen Changqing stepped forward directly and didn't give him a chance to explain himself. With one punch, he turned that divine cultivator into dust.
This battle terrified all the cultivators.
Only then did they remember, Qingzong was no good person. The other party built their power on the bones of the three ancient powers.
At the beginning of the First War, the number of cultivators who perished at the hands of the Qingzong sect was far more than hundreds of millions.
In ancient times, even powerful forces were eradicated. What more could be said of scattered cultivators and other factions
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
So.
After Shen Changqing took action personally, the entire Qingcheng became eerily quiet. Many cultivators who had acted recklessly due to their profound cultivation or powerful backgrounds were now shrinking their heads and dared not cause any trouble.ne were truly able to break the limitations of the Three Thousand Laws, then the ancient rules left behind would be able to enter the legendary realm of the Heavenly Cave.> Let me know if you have any...
