This was the first time Jiang Chen heard this statement.
Is this the main reason why even if there are masters in the real world, they have never appeared in front of others?
Or is this little monk trying to fool people?
"At present, the vitality of heaven and earth in the real world is only initially recovering, and it is far from reaching the level of recovery of Taoism. Therefore, when we use Taoism in the real world, we will be weakened."
"After I broke through the visualization realm, I cultivated divine thoughts. This is something that does not exist in the real world at present. Therefore, the known energy in the real world will reject divine thoughts, which resulted in my strength being sealed."
"I think as the vitality of heaven and earth continues to recover, spiritual particles will appear. By that time, my cultivation will naturally be unlocked!"
Seeing that Jiang Chen still looked suspicious, Xuan Xin explained further.
"All monastic methods have been sealed?"
"Can't you even show your strength in the Qi Refining Realm?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Yes, except for the fact that the body of the health-preserving state is still there, the rest is basically the same as ordinary people!"
"I see that fellow Taoist has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining and is about to enter the visualization realm. When fellow Taoist breaks through the visualization realm and returns to the real world, he should be able to feel my pain."
Xuan Xin said seriously.
"Will martial arts cultivation also be sealed?"
Jiang Chen asked again.
"This...should not happen!"
"I have never practiced martial arts, and I don't know much about it."
"But since my body in the health-preserving realm is still there, my martial arts should not be affected too much."
"After all, the ancient martial arts have revived in the real world!"
Xuan Xin said with some uncertainty.
Jiang Chen was relieved after hearing this.
If he really breaks through the visualization realm and returns to the real world and will be suppressed, then he will really be grateful!
If only the realm of monasticism is suppressed and there is no problem with the realm of martial arts, then that would be okay.
After all, his martial arts level is now very high, and in the real world, his martial arts level alone is enough to stand alone.
Everyone's expressions changed as they watched Jiang Chen and Xuan Xin chatting enthusiastically.
They really didn't expect that a little-known Taoist priest would be related to Namo Temple. It's true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured!
After everyone arrived, Wang Jinglue prepared a sumptuous lunch for everyone. After lunch, Wang Jinglue introduced the situation of the Changling River to everyone.
"In ancient times, demons invaded this continent. Later, all races joined forces to drive out the demons. However, even today, there are still people who take risks to practice demons or worship demon gods."
"The Ancient Demon Kingdom is one of them."
"They practiced demonic ways, worshiped the demon gods, acted as female agents for the demons, and conveyed information about our continent to the demons. Later, true dragons descended from the sky and obeyed the orders of the human king to destroy the ancient kingdom of the emperor and demons."
"Later, the ancient kingdom of Emperor Demon was completely wiped out, and the true dragon also completely disappeared."
"According to recent intelligence, the floating corpses of the people of the Imperial Demon Ancient Kingdom appeared in the Changling River, and then the Changling River cut off. This shows that the Changling River cut off may have disappeared in the long river of history.
The ancient kingdom of Emperor Demon is even related to that real dragon!"
"So this time I invite all the experts to come here because I want everyone to work together to find out the root cause of the Changling River's drying up and restore the Changling River to its former glory."
"Jinglue would like to thank you all!"
Wang Jinglue stood up and bowed to everyone again and again!
"Your Majesty Wang is serious. We are all cultivators in the three cities. The cutoff of the Changling River has affected the three major cities of Jiangcheng, Huacheng, and Shancheng, as well as countless people in the surrounding areas. It also has a great impact on us."
"Whether it is for public or private purposes, we will of course not allow you to investigate the matter of the Changling River being cut off!"
Everyone stood up and returned the greeting.
"In this case, I'll leave the matter of the Changling River to everyone!"
"If you have any needs, please let me know and I will do my best!"
"In addition, no matter whether the matter succeeds or fails, the Jialing County Yamen is willing to pay you five hundred taels of silver."
"If any of you unfortunately dies in this incident, the Jialing County Yamen will pay a thousand taels of silver to your faction as a pension."
"Of course, I still hope that you can do your best and never waste your life because of this matter. If this is the case, it is really the manager's fault!"
Wang Jinglue said in a sincere tone.
He wrote seventeen handwritten letters and sent them to seventeen monastic forces in Jialing County. They all sent people to help and issued recruitment orders, and sixteen people came one after another.
There were a total of thirty-three people on this trip, most of whom were in the Qi Refining Realm, and there were only nine Visualization Realm monks.
There are also a few people who only possess special skills and are not orthodox cultivators at all.
Thirty-three people came from different forces, so naturally they were not of the same mind. After leaving the governor's house, they used their own methods and demonstrated their magical powers to start investigating the Changling River cutoff incident.
Most people choose to go to the place where the flow is cut off to have a look. Some people go upstream, and some people go downstream.
Jiang Chen and Xuan Xin walked together, crossed the void in the sky, and headed straight to the upper reaches of the Changling River.
Standing on the sky and overlooking the direction of the Changling River, it is really like a dragon coiling around.
"Fellow Taoist Xuanxin, look at the Changling River like a giant dragon crawling on the ground. It's truly spectacular!"
"And where the flow is cut off, there is a fault due to geological changes. Looking down from the sky, it feels like a butcher's knife has cut the Changling River in two!"
Jiang Chen said.
"It is said that the Changling River is a water dragon vein. A real dragon once fell here and turned into the Changling River, which has flowed for thousands of years."
"Now someone has cut off the water dragon veins, so the Changling River has stopped flowing."
"There was a knife cut upstream, and there should be a knife cut downstream. Two cuts cut off a water dragon vein."
"This method of dividing a river into a land is truly terrifying, and the strength of the person who did it is simply breathtaking."
Xuan Xin said with emotion when she saw this.
"Then what is his purpose in doing this?"
"Is it just to cut off the water dragon vein? The water dragon vein is not the earth dragon vein. It cannot seal the king, split the earth, and condense the destiny of humanity. What is he doing?"
"And he cut off the Changling River for no reason. Doesn't the river god of the Changling River care about it?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Fellow Taoist Chunyang doesn't know that there is no River God in the Changling River!"
"Many years ago, there was a river god in the Changling River. It was a golden carp spirit. Because of its powerful magic, the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty named him the Changling River God."
"But later, because he caused trouble and harmed the people on both sides of the strait, at the expense of the good weather on both sides of the Changling River, he threatened Jialing County to pay him a monthly salary of a pair of boys and girls for his food, and was later ordered to be executed by the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty!
"
"And from now on, there will be no more river gods in the Changling River!"
Xuan Xin spoke up.
Most of the gods in the world are human grass-headed gods. In addition, they are the Yin gods of the underworld. As for the gods of heaven, there are very few.
In the past, the mountain gods and water gods of some famous mountains and rivers were consecrated by heaven, and even some land gods in plain areas were consecrated by heaven.
But now it is rare for Heaven to grant the title of Righteous God.
Some people say that this is the further decline of Heaven's control over the human world, while others say that this is because Heaven has completely lost confidence in the human world and is no longer willing to protect the human world.
However, although heaven rarely enshrines righteous gods, there are never a few incense gods in the human world.
There is no river god in the Changling River, so Jiang Chen and others have one less channel to get information, so the two of them simply flew down from the sky and went to the cutoff point to find out in person.
