Chapter 772 Confrontation, Lessons
Lingtian was once an immortal dynasty with a vast territory. Although Li Shanhe had many descendants, he had no pressure to be crowned king or marquis. However, after the spiritual energy was exhausted, the resistance was reduced, Lingtian was divided, and Li Shanhe died, so the remaining descendants became a burden.
When Li Shanhe knew that his end was near, he had a lot of private conversations with each of his children. They talked about childhood memories or future plans. He remembered every child's experience and personality clearly. When fathers and sons, fathers and daughters talked privately, the princes and princesses were moved to tears.
But there is one thing that Li Shanhe said to every prince and princess, that is, the Lingtian Dynasty only needs one emperor. If every prince is given a title of nobility, how can Lingtian survive after decades or hundreds of years? Wouldn't it be fragmented? The efforts and accumulation of countless generations of the Li family have been wasted here. During the Immortal Dynasty, many descendants were needed to rule. After becoming a mortal dynasty, it can no longer withstand the turmoil.
Although Li Shanhe did not say it explicitly, the implication was very clear. Li Shanhe had more than 400 children, and those who became emperors and kings were kept, and the rest were all gone. It was not only to preserve himself, but also the only way out.
The Lingtian Dynasty was a mortal state, and the treasury had countless magical medicines from the immortals. In addition, since the spiritual energy was exhausted, the princes and princesses had intended to collect longevity treasures from all over the world. The longevity-promoting Ganoderma lucidum alone had already piled up into a mountain. Li Shanhe asked each prince to go to the treasury to take a few items before leaving the dynasty. The shallower the cultivation, the more he would take, and the higher the cultivation, the less he would take.
The shallower the cultivation, the lower the life span, but the more effective it is to use life-extending items. After reaching the level of Lianxu, the life span of a cultivator is already very long. When the spiritual energy is at its peak, the methods of life extension for Lianxu cultivators are endless. But after the spiritual energy is exhausted, whether the Lianxu cultivators use new methods to extend their life or use life-extending items to extend their life, the effect is very shallow.
The two competitors, Li Tianyu and Li Tianxia, were not allowed to take a penny. Li Shanhe even made them swear that if one of them became the king in the future, he would not seek for a way to prolong his life, otherwise he would be struck by lightning and lose his life in vain.
It can be seen that this Lord of Mountains and Rivers has a truly magnanimous demeanor. Among the more than 400 princes of Lingtian, the lowest level of cultivation is the Golden Core, and most of them are at the Yuanying and Huashen stages. In fact, there are very few in the Yuanying stage, and most of them are in the middle and late stages of Huashen, or even at the peak of Huashen, one step away from Lianxu.
Thanks to Li Shanhe's final blessing, most of them are still alive, regardless of their cultivation level.
Li Shanhe died suddenly. Although in Li Changxiao's eyes, he died naturally as his life span was coming to an end, in the eyes of the Lingtian princes, it was very abrupt. However, at that time, many princes were already on their way to leave the court.
Li Tiansheng and Li Tianzhou left the dynasty and traveled around the world. They wanted to start a business, but they were unwilling to be lonely. They heard that the war in the South China Sea was fierce, so they rushed to the South China Sea.
On the way, they met several brothers, a total of five men and two women, passing through Dayu. It happened to be a grand festival today, so they joined in the fun. Who knew that when they were having fun, they saw a white shadow. Li Tiansheng and Li Tianzhou felt their hearts tugged at that time, and immediately looked for the figure in white. The strange thing was that the white shadow seemed to be right in front of them, but no matter how hard they looked, they could not touch it, like an invisible ghost.
The seven of them, full of resentment, finally found Li Changxiao in the center of a lake. They suddenly attacked him and wanted to kill him, but he was cleverly resolved with a casual slap.
At this moment, the two sides looked at each other. Although they could still be considered brothers in terms of blood relationship, their relationship was already a real life-and-death feud. As soon as Li Tiansheng opened his mouth, he accused him of "killing his brother and father". With such a serious crime, the sky immediately became gloomy. Thunder roared, as if the God of Heaven was angry when he heard that there was such a sinner in the world. He thought that justice could not be tolerated and wanted to enforce justice in the world.
Although Li Changxiao could sense the other party's deep murderous intention, he did not get angry. He said calmly: "There are too many people here, how about changing to another place and having a good chat?" Li Tianzhou said angrily: "There are too many people here, I just want to let the world know what kind of evil villain you are, Li Changxiao, who killed your brothers and sisters, your father and your brother!"
As he spoke, it was like thunder. The sound was like a thunder, reverberating in everyone's heart. Passersby climbed up the shore one after another, and saw the confrontation between the two sides. The momentum was so great that they were afraid that it was an immortal. So they did not dare to stay for long, and retreated far away. But Li Tianzhou deliberately raised his spiritual energy to his throat, so that it could be heard clearly within a thousand miles. The four words "killing my brother and my father" spread throughout everyone's heart, and everyone's heart trembled immediately, and they couldn't help thinking: "What a serious crime, there really is such a thief in this world."
Li Changxiao floated in the lake, staring blankly at the sky, his eyes seemed to penetrate the clouds and look directly at the sun. He floated by himself and did not speak. As Li Tianzhou finished speaking, more than ten monks appeared beside him one after another.
They were all descendants of Ling Tian who had arrived in the South Sea. Without exception, they hated Li Chang Xiao to the core. Previously, only Li Chang Xiao's temperament was erratic and his practice was profound, so those who had hatred or grudges against him could hardly detect his existence even if they passed by him. But now that he was exposed, naturally more and more Ling Tian princes and princesses recognized him. They came to his aid regardless of everything.
"You killed your brother and your father, what can you say?" Dozens of people asked at the same time, the momentum was so great that it was really shocking. The hatred in the words was real and not fake. Li Changxiao climbed out of the water. At this moment, more than ten people surrounded him. Li Tianzhou's face was happy. Seeing so many brothers helping him, he became more imposing.
They all shouted and asked questions. The gods cheered them on, and every word they said was accompanied by thunder. Many unrelated monks also showed up, trying to persuade them that in this time of crisis, the human monks should put aside their personal grudges and fight the enemy together. But they changed their minds and thought that killing one's father and brother was a serious crime in the world, so how could they just let it go? They were silent and just waited to see how the situation would develop.
Li Changxiao looked around and found that he was surrounded. If he had any killing intention, these princes would not survive for more than two breaths. He was no longer the same as before. He was chased in the past, but now he has seized the destiny of the world. But thinking of Ling Tian's past, once Li Shanhe died, in Li Changxiao's eyes, the hatred and grudges had been wiped out.
In this era, with a powerful enemy at hand, these dozens of princes rushed to the South China Sea with the intention of joining the cause. Just for these two reasons, Li Changxiao could spare their lives.
Li Changxiao looked at the "Thunder God" who was joining in the fun, and suddenly felt very annoyed. He slapped them away and said, "If you say you killed my brother, when did you ever treat me as a brother? If you say you killed my father, although he died because of me, I didn't kill him."
