Chapter 243: Shen Ji Pavilion and Zhan Shen Palace
Thousands of years ago, people on this vast Douqi Continent have worshipped the use of force and believed that the strong are respected.
However, not everyone has the talent for cultivation and can embark on the path to transcendence.
In fact, even though the rulers at that time generally promoted the practice of qigong, only a few people were able to practice it, and most people were just ordinary people.
Ji En, the founder of Shen Ji Pavilion, was an ordinary person who could not practice cultivation.
Although he cannot practice, his understanding of technology and mechanics is extraordinary and insightful. With his extraordinary wisdom and superb skills, he has created many amazing inventions and exquisite devices.
In order to protect himself and his inventions, he surrendered to the ruler of the time and won the ruler's high praise and reuse. As a result, Ji Shang became famous and enjoyed a high status.
However, faced with the temptation of fame and fortune, he did not indulge in it, but instead focused more on his beloved invention career.
His unparalleled talent was like a magnet, attracting countless equally talented craftsmen and knowledgeable scholars to join the Shenji Pavilion.
As time went by, the Shenji Pavilion grew in size and influence, and it evolved into a powerful organization.
However, even though the Shenji Pavilion was growing in strength, Ji Shang devoted himself to serving the ruler and was loyal to the ruler at that time.
It is precisely because of this that, despite the growing strength of the Shenji Pavilion, it was not suppressed or attacked by the rulers. On the contrary, due to the loyalty of the leaders of the Shenji Pavilion and their great contributions, the country at that time was prosperous and strong, and the rulers gave the Shenji Pavilion a more respected status.
At that time, in addition to Ji Shang, there was another person who was highly valued by the rulers of the time because of his abilities. That person was Li Mingcheng!
Li Mingcheng has reached the pinnacle of the three arts of medicine, poison and witchcraft, and no one can match him. He is a very ambitious man, but unfortunately, he is not able to embark on the path of cultivation due to his limited talent.
So Li Mingcheng took a different approach and resolutely joined the powerful ruler who dominated the world at that time.
With the help of the ruler, he successfully created the dreaded Holy Poison Temple, and through a series of political tactics, he made this organization gradually grow and become a force to be reckoned with as the Shenji Pavilion.
The Holy Poison Hall is divided into three factions. One faction is the Holy Medical Hall, which focuses on medical skills. The doctors in the Holy Medical Hall are very skilled in healing. They treat patients equally regardless of their status or wealth, and do their best to save countless lives.
In addition to the Holy Medical Hall, there is also a sect called the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, which specializes in poison techniques. Their research on poisons has reached the pinnacle, and the poisons they make are colorless and odorless, making them hard to guard against.
There is also a sect called the Holy Gu Temple, which specializes in the study of Gu techniques and is mysterious.
Both organizations serve the rulers and have equal status, but they do not interfere with each other and have always lived in peace.
As time went by, Ji Shang and Li Mingcheng got married and had children. They were both ordinary people, but their children were very talented in cultivation and had outstanding martial arts at a young age.
How could the ruler not like such a gifted and outstanding child? Naturally, he valued him highly and entrusted him with important tasks.
Time flies, and hundreds of years pass in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the Shenji Pavilion and the Shengdu Temple continued to grow and develop in the hands of their descendants, and their power became increasingly powerful.
On the other hand, the royal rulers at that time were becoming less capable and weaker, and it was no longer possible to check and balance the Shenji Pavilion and the Holy Poison Palace. As a result, the relationship between the Shenji Pavilion, the Holy Poison Palace and the rulers became more subtle and confusing.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Only the strong can stand on the top and look down on the world.
For power and status, the Shenji Pavilion and the Holy Poison Palace began to fight openly and secretly. Not only did they fight fiercely for resources, but they also tried to win over various forces in an attempt to expand their influence.
As the fight intensified, the relationship between the two sides became increasingly tense, and the Holy Poison Palace even changed its name to the God-Slaying Palace, vowing to destroy the Shenji Pavilion.
The struggle between the two organizations reached its peak in the generation of Ji Wuxie and Li Yansheng!
Ji Wuxie and Li Yansheng are both extraordinary geniuses in cultivation. They are gifted with extraordinary talents. At a young age, they successfully broke through the 'ninth level of Rehmannia' and reached the Tianxuan level and entered the Xuan realm.
The royal rulers at the time coveted the power of these two organizations, but were helpless against these two extremely powerful teenagers.
After careful consideration, the royal ruler decided to choose one of the two outstanding young men to become the princess's consort.
In this way, the royal family can not only restrain the future prince consort through the marriage contract, but also cleverly take over the huge power in his hands and control it under their own banner to serve the royal family.
The previous Saint, Xu Yuexi, was the only princess of the royal family at that time. She was also a genius in cultivation, and she reached the initial stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm when she was a teenager.
Because there are close ties between these two organizations and the royal family, the three of them have known each other since childhood. They can be said to be childhood sweethearts.
However, as time went on, the contradictions between the two organizations became more and more acute, and the open and secret struggles continued to escalate. The relationship between Ji Wuxie and Li Yansheng became more and more tense, and eventually the two broke up completely and went their separate ways.
