In the lower left corner of each of the Nine Eternal Sky Steles, where an author's signature or a painter's seal would typically appear in writing or artwork, there is such a mark that protrudes...
It is precious, solid, and unquestionable. Overall, it is a square seal impression, spanning heaven and earth, raised with lettering. The inscription reads:
"Eternal Majesty, Emperor Taizong of the Great Jing Dynasty".
These eight characters are very simple, yet each one is like a mountain, carrying the weight of millions. They do not have too complex meanings, only one direct explanation - they explain that these nine eternal steles are the masterpieces of Emperor Jingtian's Ji Fenghuo. The lines still being sketched on the steles are the personal strokes of Ji Fenghuo, who controls supreme power!
The emperor’s calligraphy, the brush dances like a dragon and a snake.
This grand campaign that stirs the vast sea, named "Yu Que Leads the Army," is in reality a personal expedition by the emperor himself!
Today's Phoenix Zhou, of course, cannot be compared to the Emperor of Lishan. Even though she rules the Central Imperial Empire and possesses unparalleled power, she is still far from that invincible sovereign. But the investment made by the Central Da Jing Empire for today's achievements is no less than in ancient times!
For example, the awakening of a bloodline beast like the imprisoned ox is an illustration. The people of Jing Guo collected nearly all the heartblood of renowned musicians and used secret methods to nurture and irrigate it. They entrusted "the best musician in Zhongyu" to care for it, playing the zither day and night for decades. Such preparations are countless, and these are merely the initial stages.
A tide of humanity, surging forward relentlessly.
No matter how underestimated or belittled as an "outdated relic," the Jingguo Empire, as the foremost empire in the world today, is unwilling to rest on its laurels or stagnate.
Without the ambition that surpasses all generations, one cannot be called "the first." Without the determination that transcends time, how can one remain at the center of the world

This "first empire in the world" wasn't given by anyone, nor did it claim its title itself. It was the result of countless heroic figures from all corners challenging it throughout history, yet none could shake its foundations.

To achieve eternal fame, one must possess an eternal heart.

Lands untrodden by former men, endeavors unfinished by predecessors, deeds yet to be accomplished... all that is now the task of us all.
The Great Emperor, born into brilliance, from the moment he ascended the throne, became "the First Ruler under Heaven," a status that inherently demanded even more potent validation.
While the current Emperor of Jingguo, Ji Fengzhou, does not seem as "brilliant". Or perhaps, his brilliance is eclipsed by the fame of Jingguo itself.
Ji Fengzhou's life seemed to be uneventful.
He wasn't like the emperor of Eastern Qi, who often wore armor to battle and personally faced arrows and stones. In the fiercely competitive eastern region, he always won battles, achieving an unchallenged empire; nor was he like the emperor of Northern Jing, who emerged from a power struggle among ten sons and ascended the throne. After his ascension, he constantly boasted about his martial prowess, claiming to be "the greatest warrior emperor throughout history," having killed countless demons in both the demonic and spirit realms; nor was he like the emperor of Northern 牧, who spent half his life establishing a vast empire on the grasslands, combining royal power with divine authority...
He was adored from birth, even when he was just a wobbly toddler, surrounded by adoration. He ascended to the position of crown prince smoothly and effortlessly, with almost no competition along the way. His siblings were incredibly deferential, and the newly ascended Emperor Jing's attitude was unambiguous... The entire nation had long since tacitly accepted his position as heir apparent.
He ascended to the throne of Emperor Jingguo with ease, his path to ascension seemingly free from any obstacles—at least none that were visible. No one found it amiss, as if he was destined from birth to become the ruler of this great empire. Everything felt so...natural, inevitable.
After his ascension, nothing earth-shattering happened.
Here's the text translated:

Or perhaps many things that should have been earth-shattering simply passed by quietly.
For many years, he sat quietly on the central throne, almost gently accepting every challenge. Much of the time, he was hidden behind the grand curtain known as the "Central First Empire," and his unique charm was not fully expressed, seeming only like a silhouette named "Emperor Jing." For millennia, it seemed anyone could… However, with one stroke of the pen, he would write an unparalleled feat!
To challenge the emperor!
The path of the Nine Sons' Unification, attracts attention from both humans and sea races. Across the myriad heavens and realms, it stands out prominently! However, outside this world, there's no possibility for immediate, powerful intervention. After all, the vast ocean is not like the Divine Thunder Palace, and this world still possesses a Celestial Gate.
In a certain sense, the near sea and the distant sea are connected here.
This ancient Sky Road, in terms of space, is a bridge spanning from the near sea to the vast ocean. In terms of time, it's a bridge crossing from ancient times to the present world. All concepts about "bridges" throughout history are interpreted to their fullest extent on this Sky Road.
The Netherworld, spanning between the Near Sea and the Far Sea, along with the tumultuous history of this world spanning hundreds of thousands of years, flows like a stream under the bridge, ever onward.

The world's foremost Dou E Army, with a hundred thousand soldiers, under the command of Que, was merely a garrison force ensuring the stability of the ancient celestial path.
The Azure-Wood Sword, lacking any hilt, slashed out swordlight, only to pave the way for this ancient celestial path.
It is itself of great significance, not something that can be achieved by individuals alone, but a feat accomplished in our time through the collective effort and resources of a nation!
The meticulously cultivated Nine-Headed True Being of the Cave Heaven, a ninth-tier bloodline monster, is merely an appetizer. The first true person in Zhongyu, holding the position of Mixed Cave Master, is only the opening stroke.
The full power of the Nine Children of the Dragon Emperor from the ancient era, is what constitutes the framework of this Heavenly Path.
And with this ancient celestial path as its foundation, the Great Scene Heavenly Emperor's own handwriting, nine replicas of the Eternal Sky Monument depicting the majestic feats of the Mount Fierce Human Emperor, how could it not be grand It truly and powerfully shook the hearts of the sea clan, and at the moment of its birth, with an unstoppable momentum, it forcefully suppressed the surging waves of the ocean!
That expanse of calm sea, spanning thousands of miles, is not just a verbal description. A clear sky dispelling the gloom, it's an event unfolding right before our eyes.
The Eternal Sky Monument is taking shape, and as it takes shape, it begins to exert its influence.
The Dragon Clan once co-ruled the world with humankind, and that great power was based on the river.
In the center of this world of myriad heavens, water and land once coexisted.
Before it was modernized, the long river was even more magnificent than it is today.
The number "Land Expanse" represents the grand river of all earthly water sources. While it may not be as vast in physical space as the boundless ocean, its grandeur surpasses even the treacherous depths of the sea in terms of transcendental significance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And such a long river was also suppressed!
That's why Longhe Jiuzhen is considered the supreme achievement created by the Emperor of Lieshan.
The content within " > " is empty. Therefore, the translated result is:
The Sea of Cang is the uncharted land beyond the Lie Mountain Range, where the human race's army advances today.
In the past, the Heavenly Emperor drew his sword and chased the Dragon Emperor eastward. He created something from nothing and fought his way out of a bewildering realm. This chaotic battleground, which defied all rules, brought an end to that war. The ensuing wars that lasted for hundreds of thousands of years were merely echoes of that single battle.
Today, the ancient road of Zhongguo spans history and transcends realms. The eternal Heavenly Monument will carry on its illustrious legacy.

How can intelligent people among the Sea Clan not be terrified
The sea race, which has been entangled with the human race for hundreds of thousands of years, is certainly not an insignificant group.
Despite the Jing Guo people's deep planning, the outbreak was extremely sudden. The ferocity of their attack and the breadth of their schemes far exceeded the usual scope of the Hai Clan's defenses, even piercing through emergency war plans. The Hai Clan still reacted as quickly as possible, implementing interception measures one after another.
The first to arrive on the battlefield was not just Chi Mei.
When the Ancient Heavenly Path descended for the first time, Ling Ming, the Imperial Sovereign, immediately activated his supreme power, causing all the stars to respond in unison, warning all powerful beings across the vast ocean.
But there are also some strong individuals who, even before the warning is transmitted, have already captured dangerous information.
For example...
At this very moment, upon the ancient Heavenly Road, a silhouette suddenly falls from the sky.
It possessed a unique divine power, silently piercing through the dense cloud of soldiers. Before Quet's gaze could land on it, it had already drifted ahead. It floated towards the nine sons running along the Heavenly Path...
She was tall and slender, her head crowned with a ceremonial headdress, her body draped in a sacred robe. In her hand she held a holy raven scepter, a symbol both divine and eerie.
The cult known as "Doomsday Ark" is renowned throughout the sea, its scale is vast and its influence is widespread. All of its followers are her disciples.
The beautiful nude statue of the saint, hands raised high above her head, fingers intertwined like branches, with a raven with red eyes perched on the tips. The moon-white crown and robes embroidered with strange patterns, all resonate harmoniously because of this staff's presence.
Her form was both real and illusory, her spirit noble and inviolable.
She seemed to hold the most sacred authority over this expanse of sea. With every breath, countless creatures of the ocean paid homage and prayed... The most devout power dwelling deep within her soul.
Scouring the vast ocean, in this world there is only one supreme being - the Xuan Shen Emperor, wise and revered!
When they first met, she had already arrived.
Just like seeking a vulnerability in the bloodline's depths, she too has been subtly plotting, preparing for divine confrontation, waiting for a possible breakthrough. But now, she can wait no longer.
Time has never been on the side of the Sea Clan—that is a painful truth.
The divine silhouette of Rui Chong drifted across the sky in a wondrous trajectory, evading both tangible and intangible obstructions. It moved with a deceptive swiftness, gracefully bending its path before landing upon the form of the dragon child resembling a furious lion.
The fifth son of the ancient Dragon Emperor, enjoys quietude and fireworks. He resembles a lion and is named Suan Ni.
The Suzaku is the culmination of dragon and Shinto deities from the ancient times, a terrifying existence with the potential to usher in an era of Shintoism.
As the current Sea Clan's highest achiever in Shinto, Rui Chong chose to start with the Suanni. By borrowing the incense of tens of millions of sea creatures, he shook the divine power of this dragon son, thus breaking the fusion of the Nine Children's strength and counteracting the disintegration of this ancient celestial road.
With a staff in hand, Ruichong exudes an unparalleled divine might. Her robe, embroidered with strange patterns, floats in the air like a beautiful rainbow never seen in the vast sea. Beneath the robe are straight and long legs, fair to the point of revealing blue veins.

She walked forward, stepping on the beating hearts of billions of creatures born in the vast ocean. Behind her were countless sea spirits bowing in phantom shadows.
Thus, with the Saint Crow statue atop the staff pointing towards its lion-like eyes, and lips so thin they were almost translucent, gently opening to utter—

"Imperial Decree, Three Paths Reversed, Divine Path, Spirits, Divine Faith!"
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Crackling, boom-boom-crash!
"Worship the gods! Worship the gods!" , "May you live long and peacefully!"
Between the heavens and sea, countless clamorous sounds arose, all echoing in response to the decree of the Profound God Sovereign.
The so-called "one god's action, ten thousand beliefs respond". Take the present as proof of the past, and invoke gods with gods!
The Sūan Ní running on the ancient path, is a concrete manifestation of its true power. With the support of the Ancient Heavenly Road, it grows stronger and clearer during the sacrifice of the nine children bloodline beast. Its surroundings are enveloped in ever-shifting, ethereal smoke that seems to possess a life of its own.
At this time, countless illusory figures also appeared. It was like a three-dimensional, realistic scroll of incense burning, with dragons, fish, and humans all worshipping, all devout. That was the medieval era, beings offering their faith to the Suzaku.
At the calling of the Xuan Shen Emperor, those beings indeed wavered. The worshipers slowly raised their heads, their devout and faithful eyes began to stir with emotion, as if asking - who is it they worship What do they seek
>Most importantly... What use is bowing to you!
What is the state of the sea today, and what is the fate of its inhabitants
Whoever receives incense offerings should bear the responsibility!
Between the heavens and sea, all faith power is manipulated by Ruichong at this moment. Myriad strands of faith power develop in countless ways, Ruichong uses Shinto power to its utmost, constantly exploring the infinite possibilities of divinity.
All those earnest whispers, in the end, mingled together, coalescing into a chaotic yet magnificent unison.
“Heaven and Earth spirits, Holy Venerable Gods. Dragon Emperor burns incense, Suzaku is born!”
The mythical beast of the ancient path, a gigantic creature resembling a lion with fiery eyes that instantly ignited, revealing red glow.
Under the divine guidance of Ruishen, the faith powers from modern seas and ancient waters resonated. The converging tide of immense faith even led to the birth of a true Suzaku will!
She wanted to borrow the power of this Suzaku descended upon the ancient celestial road, borrowing the faith of billions of sea creatures, so that the true Suzaku could be revived in faith.
This is indeed a brilliant way to break the deadlock and see possibilities!

"What a mighty Xuan Shen Sovereign!" At the end of the ancient celestial path, such a voice rang out.
It is extremely grand, reaching from heaven to earth, and spreading throughout the vast sea.
As soon as these words were uttered, Yu Que lowered his head in shame, and all the soldiers stood at attention.
This could only be the voice of Emperor Taizong, the sovereign ruler of the Great Jing Empire, and current emperor, Ji Fengzhou.
This voice said calmly, "To be able to achieve such a feat as taming the Sea God is something to be proud of."
As for a powerful figure like the Xuan Shen Emperor, he too was aloof and casually commented.
That eternal monument being outlined, the one with a lone statue of a Qilin carved on it, seems to have an invisible brush that lightly touches its eyes. That's all it takes...
"Roar!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The eyes of the snnnì seemed to open completely, "godly" opened, and the power of faith between heaven and sea surged suddenly, like a lion's roar!
Clank clank clank!
In Rui Chong's palm, the Holy Maiden's Raven Staff pulsed. From the red eyes of the raven head, a clear fissure erupted, snaking down to the end of the staff.
The Xuan Shen Emperor clutched the scepter in his hand, his fingers split open, blood flowing freely, watering the white bones.
And her figure, in an instant, became ethereal to the extreme, as if it were about to vanish completely!
The idea is great, but I'm not able to do it!
Compared to the heyday of the Aquatic Race, the Sea Clan that retreated to the Cang Hai after the Great Split was far less powerful. Although the Cang Hai Sea Clan has developed and progressed generation after generation, especially after completing the True Form of the Ocean Lord, they experienced a significant leap in life force. However, they are still very far from reaching the peak during their time when they divided the world.
To give an inappropriate example—the highest achiever in the Shinto path was once Suanni, a powerful figure who had the chance to open up the era of Shinto. Now, the highest achiever in the Shinto path is Ruichong, only considered the first in Shinto within the vast sea.
Of course, it's not that Ruichong is weak or incompetent. Her cultivation is also limited by the times and the plight of her clan. Especially since Shinto requires the support of incense, its decline compared to the past is inevitable.
It's just saying, the gap has been visible ever since.
Unlike...

Mount Lieshan's self-dissolution ushered in a flourishing era of a hundred schools of thought contending, with the rise of a new day and age. Generations of human beings have strived forward, and today surpasses all that came before.
The central figure, Emperor Ji Fenghuo of the country Jingguo, embodies the culmination of humanity's greatest power.
