Jiang Yuan was truly terrifying back then, leaving a deep-seated inner demon in the younger generation of the Jiang family. The best way to defeat this inner demon is to confront the deepest fear in one's heart.
Jiang Yuanjun and Jiang Haizong remained silent, both eager to see what kind of abilities this legendary junior possessed that made him truly unparalleled.
"If you feel there's a gap between our cultivation levels, then I can suppress my cultivation level!" Jiang Chen was willing to suppress his cultivation level for the sake of fairness.
However, Jiang Yuan shook his head and chuckled, "Since we're going to fight, there's no need to suppress your strength. After all, your cultivation level is also part of your power."
"Alright, then let's fight with all our might!" Jiang Chen clenched his fist and assumed a fighting stance.
"Fight with all our might!"
Jiang Yuan became serious upon hearing these four words. He raised an eyebrow and nodded, saying, "Indeed, only by fighting with all our might can we show respect to our opponent."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaodi chuckled inwardly. This young master of the Jiang family was in trouble. After all, the only one who could make Jiang Yuan fight with all his might was at the Nascent Soul Realm, while Jiang Chen was only at the fifth stage of the Supreme God Realm.
"Then let's go!" Jiang Chen launched the first attack. His reputation was well-deserved, and Jiang Yuan's record spoke for itself. He was a killing god who made even the heavens tremble.
"Only those who can break through my cave heaven are qualified to fight me!"
Jiang Yuan shook his body, and the Eternal Cave Heaven of the Lower Three Levels directly sealed Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen, who had just taken a fighting stance, was completely frozen. Not only could he not make any movements, but he could not even circulate the energy in his body.
This is the Eternal Grotto-Heaven, where one can completely overwhelm those of the same level, and even those of a higher level, one still possesses absolute control.
Three seconds, five seconds, ten seconds, Jiang Chen remained motionless, leaving the three patriarchs of the Jiang family sighing in disbelief. Only now did they understand the path Jiang Yuan was taking. He was no longer a member of the younger generation; his targets were the semi-decaying beings, the most elite figures on the battlefield.
Jiang Chen is indeed a bit weak.
"receive!"
Jiang Yuan waited for half a minute, then absorbed the Eternal Cave Heaven into his body. He wasn't underestimating anyone; rather, he had absolute confidence that no one of his generation could rival him on the Imperial Star.
The moment the Eternal Cave Heaven vanished, Jiang Chen regained his mobility, but after regaining it, he collapsed to the ground, his mind becoming dazed. There was a hint of despair in his eyes. It was this action that made him realize the gap between himself and Jiang Yuan, a gap that could not be bridged by talent alone.
"The path has its order, but the pursuit is endless." Jiang Yuan said meaningfully. Although he couldn't say "don't judge a hero by temporary success or failure," he could still offer some comfort, at least to prevent a genius of the Jiang family from losing his fighting spirit.
"The pursuit never ends!"
Jiang Chen murmured the same word repeatedly, then his eyes cleared. "That's right, I was too simplistic. The path of pursuing the Dao can only be kept at the forefront by constantly breaking through limits."
"If there are no problems, the Soul Secret is mine."
Jiang Yuan walked towards the ancestral tablet, where the last of the nine human arts of the Middle Three Heavens was located—the Soul Secret. Once he obtained the Soul Secret, he could go to the predetermined place to make his final breakthrough.
Having learned from the experience of the Wenshan Dao Sect, he was determined not to seek out an ordinary mountain range this time, otherwise he wouldn't have a demigod-like earth dragon to provide him with energy next time. That was precisely why he sent the Tianfu Faith Army to help him conquer the Himalayas; he needed the world veins there.
"etc!"
Just as Jiang Yuan picked up the Soul Secret, Jiang Yuanjun walked over.
"Is there anything I can help you with, senior?" Jiang Yuan asked politely.
Jiang Yuanjun was so angry at the mention of "senior" that he gritted his teeth. He deliberately said, "I can give you the Soul Secret, but I heard that the Chen family and the Kongtong Daoist sect only handed over the Nine Arts under certain conditions. Wouldn't it be impolite for you to just take it like this?"
"What does the Jiang family want?" Jiang Yuan asked in a deep voice.
“Hmm…” Jiang Yuanjun pondered for a moment, glanced at Jiang Yuan’s current condition, and nodded, “I know you can’t treat more half-deceased people in your current state, but you have to write a commitment letter or something.”
"Or, you could let Zhao Di stay at the Jiang family's house for a while."
"impossible!"
Jiang Yuan refused outright. Letting Liu Zhaodi stay would be tantamount to taking her hostage. He would rather rob her than let her stay.
“Husband, you’ve misunderstood!” Liu Zhaodi whispered from the side. Anyone with eyes could see that the Jiang family wanted to curry favor with him, not to be his hostage.
"Kid, you're still as hot-tempered as ever." Jiang Yunchen looked at Jiang Yuan speechlessly and said, "Let your grandpa finish."
"The Jiang family's soul is Jiang, defying fate and changing destiny, a divine position can be obtained."
