Myriad Daos of the Heaven

Kill!

Jiang Jichen roared, channeling the power of the Wandering Dragon Holy Sword and swinging it in all directions.

Dragon Roaming the World!

As Jiang Jichen unleashed this strike, the Cultivators who had been charging forward to kill him suddenly felt an aura that could suppress the world.

It was like a True Dragon in the sky, weighing down upon the mountains and rivers.

Everyone’s minds were seized with terror, and they felt a horrifying sense of mortal danger.

They felt they were facing not a single man, but True Dragons roaming in every direction. When Jiang Jichen swung his sword, dragon phantoms appeared all around, coiling and killing the experts from the Noble Families who were attacking him.

"This is bad! Retreat! This is an exclusive skill of the Holy Sword! How... how is he able to use it?"

Someone was already screaming in terror while retreating at top speed.

But it was still too slow!

The world was filled with the phantoms of True Dragons. They roamed in every direction, annihilating everything in their path, their auras shaking the heavens.

"Ah, no!"

A Cang Family disciple at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage had his attack instantly swept away before his body was swatted into a bloody mist by a dragon phantom.

"I don’t want to die! Get away!"

An expert from the Guo Family at the Foundation Establishment Middle Realm was filled with terror. With nowhere to run, he was swallowed whole by a dragon phantom and refined into a mass of pure, immense Blood Qi.

Scenes like this were happening everywhere. Wherever the dragons roamed and the Holy Sword passed, everyone was slaughtered.

The area before the Ancient Ruined City West Gate had turned into a Purgatory, the stench of blood soaring to the sky.

And Jiang Jichen had undoubtedly transformed into a Killing God. With a single Wandering Dragon Holy Sword Technique, he had slaughtered eighty percent of the Noble Family Descendants.

Of course, Jiang Jichen had paid an enormous price for this one strike. His vast and unparalleled Blood Qi was nearly drained dry.

He likely wouldn’t have been able to use this technique, Wandering Dragon Under Heaven, without reaching the Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Realm.

Of course, even without using its exclusive Holy Sword Techniques, the might of the Wandering Dragon Holy Sword was world-shaking.

After that one strike, Jiang Jichen became incredibly weak. All the Blood Qi in the area was absorbed and refined by the One Corner of the Sky Killing Array.

Within his Divine Soul, because the Wandering Dragon Under Heaven Sword Form had consumed a massive amount of Blood Qi, the Resentful Souls lost their support and weakened.

Originally, Jiang Jichen’s Divine Soul had been at a disadvantage against the thousands of Resentful Souls. He’d been gritting his teeth, desperately holding on, nearly torn to shreds by them.

But now, Jiang Jichen seized this unparalleled opportunity. His Divine Soul Power erupted, and he began devouring the Resentful Souls with the force of a landslide.

And so, as Jiang Jichen continuously devoured the Resentful Souls to strengthen his own Divine Soul, their numbers dwindled. As they waned and he waxed, Jiang Jichen began to gain the upper hand, and his Divine Soul finally regained control of his physical body.

With his Divine Soul and body reunited, Jiang Jichen’s aura surged once more. His Blood Qi now supported his Divine Soul, allowing him to once again sweep through and devour the thousands upon thousands of Resentful Souls.

Only Jiang Jichen’s mutated Divine Soul was capable of increasing its Soul Power by devouring Resentful Souls.

Even Jiang Jichen himself was shocked by this!

If the world were to find out, he feared that a Supreme existence would come to erase him from existence.

Because increasing one’s Soul Power by devouring Resentful Souls was too heaven-defying—even more so than the heaven-defying breakthrough he had just achieved.

All Cultivators knew that the Divine Soul was the most difficult to cultivate. Its growth was excruciatingly slow. Only by breaking through to a new Great Enhancement Realm and undergoing the baptism of the Heaven and Earth Laws would one’s soul become significantly stronger.

But Jiang Jichen didn’t need any of that. He only needed to devour Resentful Souls, and his soul could grow continuously!

At this point, as Jiang Jichen’s Cultivation improved, the miraculous functions of his mutated Divine Soul were gradually being revealed.

Soon, Jiang Jichen had swept through and devoured all the Resentful Souls. His Divine Soul was now filled with immense power, but... he couldn’t use it yet. This Divine Soul Power was too impure and needed to be tempered and absorbed before he could wield it.

PFFT!

As his Divine Soul returned, Jiang Jichen’s body trembled and he nearly collapsed. Fortunately, he managed to support himself with the Wandering Dragon Holy Sword just in time to keep from falling.

He could now feel just how terrible his physical condition was!

A moment ago, the Thought of Slaughter had controlled his body, completely disregarding his well-being in its single-minded pursuit of killing more people.

The result was that right after his heaven-defying breakthrough, Jiang Jichen had to face his most perilous situation yet.

Because the people who remained were the strongest figures of the Noble Families.

Leaders of the Noble Family Descendants like Cang Lengshan, Cang Lengyun, Guo Qishan, Nangong Jinjie, and Wei Xiaolang.

The rest were Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators, as well as members of the Blood Refining Alliance and the people from the Sealed Ancient Land who hadn’t participated in the battle.

Ironically, the weakest people—those from the Sealed Ancient Land—were the ones who survived. The irony of it left one speechless.

"Jiang Jichen, you’re at the end of your rope. I will take your life with my own hands!"

Guo Qishan shouted coldly as he strode toward Jiang Jichen.

Jiang Jichen spat out a mouthful of bloody foam and laughed wildly. "With the Wandering Dragon Holy Sword in hand, slaughtering you will be as easy as killing a dog!"

Guo Qishan froze for a moment, a hesitant look in his eyes. "Your Blood Qi is exhausted! There’s no way you can use a Second Form of a Holy Sword Technique. What arrogant nonsense!"

Jiang Jichen’s Wandering Dragon Under Heaven had indeed shocked everyone. Even people like Guo Qishan and Cang Lengshan had been forced to use their Secret Artifacts to emerge unscathed from that Sword Form. But they were clearly terrified to the core, fearing they couldn’t withstand another strike like that.

Hearing Guo Qishan’s words, Jiang Jichen said indifferently, "Do I need a Holy Sword Technique to kill you? How ignorant. To kill a single person, a simple, ordinary killing strike from the Holy Sword is more than enough to take your dog head!"

Jiang Jichen looked incredibly frail, as if he might lose his footing and collapse at any moment. He appeared utterly exhausted.

However, no one dared to be careless anymore. They clearly remembered what happened before when they saw Jiang Jichen’s head slump, thought he was dead, and a crowd of them rushed forward to seize the Holy Sword. The result...

Guo Qishan’s expression turned incredibly ugly upon hearing Jiang Jichen’s words. After all, being called a dog at every turn was infuriating. But right now, he was also extremely wary and didn’t dare to attack immediately.

"Jiang Jichen, don’t you care if these people from the Hua Family live or die? I heard you’re the Hua Family’s son-in-law, you know!"

But just then, Nangong Jinjie’s voice rang out. Standing before him were eight disciples of the Hua Family, held captive by Hua Xiaojun, who had swords pressed against their necks.

Jiang Jichen’s eyes turned cold, and his voice was chilling. "What do their lives and deaths have to do with me? However, since you mentioned I’m the Hua Family’s son-in-law, then after they die, I will naturally avenge them. Especially the Hua Family traitor, Hua Xiaojun!"

At that moment, Jiang Jichen wasn’t looking at Nangong Jinjie. His gaze was locked firmly on Hua Xiaojun.

Hua Xiaojun had witnessed Jiang Jichen’s terrifying power from the sidelines. Now, being stared at like this, he was almost scared out of his wits. However, seeing how far away he was from Jiang Jichen, and how weak the man now was, he reasoned there was no way Jiang Jichen could kill him from there. His courage returned, and he declared, "Jiang Jichen, you’re weak and spent. A dying man still acting so arrogant! I’ll kill them right now. Let’s see what you can do about it!"

As he spoke, Hua Xiaojun swung his longsword, and the head of a Hua Family disciple fell to the ground.
