Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Respected Great Martial’s voice pierced through the sky and entered Jiang Changsheng’s ears.
Jiang Changsheng was enjoying the battle between Ye Xun and the gray-robed old man. From the looks of it, Ye Xun’s opponent was indeed strong, but he could not display his strength in front of him.
He glanced at the Respected Great Martial in the distance and nodded.
This indifferent attitude made the Respected Great Martial frown.
Those who did not know better would think that they were here to watch a show, as if they were acquaintances that happened to meet and greet each other.
The Respected Great Martial’s eyes flickered with killing intent. He shouted,
“Dao Ancestor, leave Great Jing and I will spare your life today.”
The martial artists behind him all looked at Jiang Changsheng with fear in their eyes. Even though they could not see through Jiang Changsheng’s strength, the Dao Ancestor’s achievements had spread throughout the ocean. No one dared to belittle him, especially when the Respected Great Martial said that the Dao Ancestor was in the Four Grotto-heaven realm!
A fierce battle was bound to come!
Jiang Changsheng replied, “I’m sorry, I don’t want to leave, and you can’t beat me.”
When Ye Xun heard the Dao Ancestor’s voice, his fighting spirit became even stronger.
He was willing to admit defeat in the hands of the Dao Ancestor, but how could he possibly lose to an ordinary Three Grotto-heaven realm expert?
Boom!
Ye Xun’s true Qi exploded and forced the grav-robed old man back. Then, he soared into the sky and drew a perfect arc in the air between Jiang Changsheng and the Respected Great Martial. He suddenly fell and his true qi accelerated. His right foot was like a blade as he transformed into a white light and swooped down.
The gray-robed old man drew a circle with his palms and pushed them forward. Boundless true qi condensed into the head of a huge flood dragon. Then, it opened its bloody mouth, wanting to devour Ye Xun.
The martial arts techniques of both sides collided and their true qi exploded, raising a terrifying impact that swept across the land. Both of them were forced back.
Ye Xun steadied himself and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He wiped it casually and swallowed the blood in his throat before rushing towards the gray-robed old man again.
At that moment, the Respected Great Martial flew towards Jiang Changsheng with the two other experts in the Three Grotto-heaven realm. The aura of the three of them exploded at the same time, dominating the area. Even Ye Xun and his opponent turned to look at them.
So… so powerful!
Ye Xun looked at the Respected Great Martial in horror. This person was definitely not in the Three Grotto-heaven realm.
Could it be that he had also reached the Four Grotto-heaven realm?
Ye Xun panicked. He had always believed that Jiang Changsheng was in the Four Grotto-heaven realm. If the enemy was also in the Four Grotto-heaven realm, then they would not have a 100% chance of winning.
Even though he was frightened, he did not stop. He just fought the gray-robed old man to the death.
“Ye Xun, you may leave.”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice suddenly came, startling Ye Xun. Before he could react, an invisible force pulled him away. He looked down and saw a purple silk wrapped around his waist that dragged him to Jiang Changsheng’s side.
“What was that?”
Ye Xun widened his eyes and stared at the God Binding Silk on Jiang Changsheng’s waist in disbelief.
He did not understand why a man would hang a purple ribbon…
The Respected Great Martial and the other two could see it more clearly. The purple ribbon had just lengthened…
“How is that possible…”
“Am I seeing things?”
“It must be an illusion!”
“Is that martial arts? Or demonic arts?”
The martial artists on Luoyu’s head cried out in surprise. They had seen divine weapons, but they had never seen such a weapon.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the Respected Great Martial and said, “All of you, come at me together. Otherwise, you won’t have a chance.”
His voice echoed between heaven and earth. His tone was casual and even had a teasing undertone, but it gave the Limitless Sea Alliance a lot of pressure.
The gray-robed old man came to the Respected Great Martial’s side and looked at Jiang Changsheng vigilantly.
“Dao Ancestor, you are exaggerating. The four of us have joined hands, and you are still disdainful?”
The Respected Great Martial frowned and said. He tried his best to restrain his anger, but he felt that the other party was teasing and mocking him.
Jiang Changsheng curled his lips and said, “Ye Xun, watch carefully. This is the strength you should spend your life chasing.”
Hearing this, Ye Xun’s expression brightened and he immediately became nervous.
Was it coming?
The Chen Family’s Qi Finger!
At that moment, Jiang Changsheng suddenly cast a spell and his body rapidly enlarged. Ye Xun felt something beneath his feet. Soon after, he widened his eyes and revealed a horrified expression as his mouth subconsciously opened.
The Respected Great Martial and the three experts in the Three Grotto-heaven realm also widened their eyes and trembled. The elites of the Limitless Sea Alliance behind them were all shocked silly.
Under their gazes, Jiang Changsheng’s feet landed on the ground, causing the earth to tremble and dust to fly.
He had become ten thousand feet tall!
Even his robe had enlarged!
Divine Power, Heavenly Elephant Dharma!
Ye Xun, who stood on Jiang Changsheng’s shoulder, trembled. He looked at Jiang Changsheng’s side profile in shock and could not calm down.
“Demon… demon…”
The gray-robed old man’s voice trembled. The courage of this expert in the Three Grotto-heaven realm had been crushed to bits. How could a martial artist become so huge?
The Luoyu opened its fish eyes and stared at Jiang Changsheng as if it was facing a great enemy.
At that moment, Jiang Changsheng looked even larger than it. He was ten thousand feet long, while Jiang Changsheng was ten thousand feet tall!
Jiang Changsheng slowly raised his right palm, and his eyes became extremely cold. He slowly said, “After you enter the netherworld, you must remember that this Great Jing is not someone ordinary people can provoke!”
“Attack!”
The Respected Great Martial shouted angrily and the four Grotto-heaven realm experts condensed their true qi.
Jiang Changsheng struck out with his palm. Purple light flickered and illuminated the world, causing Ye Xun’s shocked expression to change.
Rumble—
As Jiang Changsheng pushed out his palm, the land shook and a strong wind descended from the sky. Ye Xun was forced to half kneel while the Luoyu fell.
The Respected Great Martial and the others looked up and saw a shocking scene. What made them feel the most despair was that they discovered that they could not move, including the Respected Great Martial.
Surrounded by a sea of clouds, an incomparable purple palm descended from the sky. It was as if it was from an immortal god from beyond the heavens. It covered the sky and blotted out the sun, making everything in the world feel insignificant. At that moment, even the citizens of the Si Province and the surrounding states saw it.
They saw a huge and dazzling purple palm shadow appear on the horizon. As it pressed down from the sky, the world was illuminated by purple light. A world-destroying gale blew from all directions, and a terrifying earthquake spread for thousands of miles.
The earth shook and the sky darkened!
Ye Xun, who stood on Jiang Changsheng’s shoulder, felt his heart beating extremely fast as he looked at the Respected Great Martial and the others being drowned by the purple palm shadow.
“This martial arts technique…
Ye Xun was convinced. He knelt on Jiang Changsheng’s shoulder and looked ahead in a daze.
A huge pit was created in a radius of ten miles, and the mountain forests within dozens of miles collapsed. Jiang Changsheng had investigated this place before and found that there was no one nearby, so he was not afraid of accidental injuries.
As the purple palm shadow dissipated, dust rose between heaven and earth, similar to the scene of an apocalypse.
The Luoyu laid motionless in the pit. The martial artists above its head had all turned into blood paste.
The Respected Great Martial and the other three were also lying on the ground, covered in blood. They could not be more dead.
A single palm to end the battle!
Ye Xun gulped.
He suddenly felt extremely fortunate that he could survive challenging the Dao Ancestor!
Jiang Changsheng deactivated his Divine Power and quickly recovered his normal body. He swooped down and landed in front of the Respected Great Martial.
Ye Xun followed suit.
Soon after, he saw Jiang Changsheng stretch out his hand and a green light fell from his palm, shining on the Respected Great Martial.
Revival!
Ye Xun seemed to have thought of something and his expression was complicated.
The Respected Great Martial’s fingers began to move. Jiang Changsheng crouched down and raised his hand to grab his bloody hair. He lifted his head and used the Phantom God’s Eyes. The Respected Great Martial’s pupils turned golden and his eyes became dazed.
Ye Xun stood behind Jiang Changsheng and did not see the abnormality in his eyes. As for the changes in the Respected Great Martial’s pupils, he did not think much about it.
Jiang Changsheng began to ask questions, and the Respected Great Martial’s vitality continuously recovered. He answered truthfully, and his voice gradually recovered its strength.
“Why do you have to obtain the Demon Gathering Pearl?”
“The Sacred Dynasty is about to be destroyed and the calamity of demons is about to sweep through the human world. Obtaining the Demon Gathering Pearl can protect the Limitless Sea Alliance.”
“Then why help the Donghai Dynasty?”
“If we help the Donghai Dynasty seize the continent, the Limitless Sea Alliance can open the nine dragon veins and resurrect the legendary demon beast before subduing it with the Demon Gathering Pearl.”
“What is the rumored demon beast?”
“I’m not sure. I heard that the dragon veins are some kind of sealing technique.
Where there is a dragon vein, there must be a demon beast sealed…”
Jiang Changsheng continued to ask, and the Respected Great Martial answered in a daze.
Ye Xun did not care about being shocked. He was shocked by the Respected Great Martial’s words.
There were demon beasts under the dragon veins?
What kind of demon beast needed a continent to suppress it?
He could not imagine it.
Soon after, Jiang Changsheng learned that the Limitless Sea Alliance had launched a full-scale attack. Even if they were defeated, Emperor Shuntian and the experts of Great Jing would die tragically. Once that happened, Great Jing’s vitality would be greatly damaged, and perhaps he, the Dao Ancestor, would leave, and he would think of ways to obtain the dragon veins in the future. What a joke.
Jiang Changsheng asked for the location of the headquarters of the Limitless Sea Alliance and various martial arts techniques from his mind.
After a long time, he deactivated the Phantom God’s Eye and used the Chen Family’s Qi Finger to end the Respected Great Martial once again.
But he did not leave after that. Instead, he took out the Sun Shooting Divine Bow.
This was the first time Ye Xun had seen the Sun Shooting Divine Bow, and he thought to himself, ‘What a handsome bow!’
Under his gaze, Jiang Changsheng drew his bow and shot arrows in different directions. Streaks of light shot out, deafening and powerful before quickly disappearing into the horizon.
“What kind of archery technique is that?”
Ye Xun was shocked again. This was the first time he had seen such a terrifying archery technique. How many other terrifying ultimate techniques did the Dao Ancestor know?
Jiang Changsheng kept the Sun Shooting Divine Bow into his Giant Spirit Ring and looked at Ye Xun with a smile. “What you heard today is between you and me. There can be no third person, including Bai Qi and Yang Zhou. Do you understand?”
Ye Xun immediately nodded when he heard that.
Jiang Changsheng walked towards the Luoyu and said, “Take their bodies with you.”
Ye Xun endured his nausea and carried the four Grotto-heaven realm corpses on his shoulders before following Jiang Changsheng.
“Dao Ancestor, was it really a martial arts technique that allowed you to grow ten thousand feet tall?”
“Of course. You don’t believe me?”
“I do not believe it. Besides… can martial arts techniques really reach such a level?”
“Haven’t you already seen it?”
“You’re amazing. Also, what’s the name of that palm technique?”
“Ziwei Imprisoning Heaven Divine Dao Palm.”
“Ziwei Imprisoning Heaven Divine Dao Palm… what a domineering name…”
Ye Xun held it in for a long time, but he did not dare to say the words “I want to learn”.
However, he was not stupid. The Dao Ancestor clearly thought highly of him.
First, he did not kill him. Then, he let him see all sorts of ultimate techniques and not allowing him to speak out about it.
What did that mean?
Ye Xun’s heart beat faster as he looked at Jiang Changsheng’s back with fanaticism..
