Myriad Daos of the Heaven

"One."

Jiang Jichen spoke coolly, Red Copper Sword in hand.

His voice drifted over the silent Ancient Jade Battle Platform.

Everyone heard it and was instantly stunned!

It was shocking, astonishing, utterly unbelievable...

A Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm had been killed just like that, with a single Sword Skill!

Was this the same Jiang Jichen they once knew?

In their memory, Jiang Jichen always had to rely on various tricks and Great Killing Artifacts to slaughter those in realms far higher than his own.

But now, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Jiang Jichen had taken the initiative to attack, felling a formidable Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm Cultivator with a single Sword Technique.

This was a true Supreme Transcender!

"This...!"

The disciples from the Noble Families and Sects who had been about to charge forward just a moment ago quietly wiped away their cold sweat.

They were among the weakest here, not much stronger than the Cultivator Jiang Jichen had just killed.

Just then, Kong Ming of the Kong Family drifted over, his gaze fixed malevolently on Jiang Jichen. "You’re nothing but a mere Loose Cultivator. It’s one thing for my Kong Family to kill you, but what right do you have to kill a member of my family?"

Jiang Jichen looked at Kong Ming as if he were a complete moron. ’This guy must have a screw loose,’ he thought. ’He’s clearly been on his high horse for so long that he doesn’t even see Loose Cultivators as human beings.’

’I’ve lost count of how many disciples from Noble Families and Sects I’ve killed. Why would I care about the Kong Family?’

Jiang Jichen was speechless. He couldn’t be bothered to waste words on him and simply raised his sword and charged.

How could Kong Ming not understand the look in Jiang Jichen’s eyes? He felt utterly humiliated and seethed with rage.

And the man had actually dared to attack him first!

’So arrogant! So utterly clueless about his own limitations!’

Facing Jiang Jichen’s sword strike, Kong Ming raised a hand and sent a palm strike of his own.

Void Palm!

It was one of the Kong Family’s ultimate techniques. The Palm Intent was one of emptiness, like the Void itself—boundless and omnipresent!

Although Kong Ming’s Void Palm was far from reaching such a Supreme Realm, it was still extraordinary and immensely powerful.

A section of the Void suddenly trembled, as if seized by a formless, giant hand, completely under its control.

The Sword Qi from Jiang Jichen’s strike was completely annihilated, dissolving into the Void.

At the same time, Kong Ming moved. He took a single step... Void Step!

With that one step, space and time seemed to warp. In an instant, he appeared beside Jiang Jichen, a silent Killing Technique already blasting toward his vitals.

A chill ran through Jiang Jichen’s heart. He realized he had truly misjudged his opponent.

He never expected Kong Ming’s combat awareness to be so sharp. Once a fight began, the man wouldn’t waste a single word, attacking with lethal precision.

Calm, ruthless, and incredibly strong on his own!

Fortunately, Jiang Jichen had fought Kong Chu before and had studied the Void Step to some extent.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to dodge this move and would have been severely wounded.

But now, Jiang Jichen’s Seven-Colored Divine Soul consciousness was even stronger, allowing him to grasp the trajectory of his opponent’s Step Technique with greater precision.

Even though Kong Ming’s Void Step was far superior to Kong Chu’s, Jiang Jichen could still track it with ease.

In fact, the very reason Jiang Jichen dared to stay and fight was... his Seven-Colored Divine Soul!

He had discovered that with his Seven-Colored Divine Soul, he could sense and track his opponent’s attacks and Step Technique trajectories a step ahead of time!

Of course, at his current Divine Soul Realm, he could only see through the movements of those at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Against Spirit Infant Realm Cultivators, he feared that even if he could see their moves, his own speed would be too slow to react.

Facing Kong Ming’s ultimate killing blow, Jiang Jichen executed Illusory Indeterminacy, narrowly dodging the attack.

"Huh!"

Kong Ming was astonished, not expecting his attack to miss and be dodged by his opponent.

At that very moment, Nangong Jinjie, Ling Dong, the second senior brother of the Flowing Cloud Sect, and the others all charged forward as well, delaying no longer!

If Jiang Jichen could dodge a killing blow from Kong Ming, then... how could they dare to be careless?

"Jiang Jichen, I’ll be the one to kill you!"

Ling Dong’s hatred for Jiang Jichen ran bone-deep. As he attacked, he flipped his hand, and a frenzy of Daoist Skills surged forth, transforming into lightning, talismans, and astral winds that descended from the sky, threatening to engulf Jiang Jichen.

But the one who hated Jiang Jichen even more than Ling Dong was, without a doubt, Nangong Jinjie.

He laughed furiously. "Jiang Jichen, today is the day you die!"

As he spoke, his palms were already moving like the wind, sweeping toward Jiang Jichen’s vital points.

Then there was the sword of the Flowing Cloud Sect’s second senior brother, the Divine Rune Condensation Array of Su Hao from the Su Family, the Life Killing Technique of the Cang Family, and the talisman blockade of the Wei Family!

In a single instant, just after dodging Kong Ming’s ultimate killing blow, Jiang Jichen found himself plunged into an even greater, more perilous crisis.

But Jiang Jichen remained exceptionally composed, his eyes blazing with a ferocious will to fight.

Before falling into the Forbidden Land, Jiang Jichen wouldn’t have dared to face these geniuses from the Noble Families and Sects.

But now... his physical body had been tempered by the Forbidden Force, his Great Innate Acupoints shone with a seven-colored treasure light, and strands of lightning-like Undying Power coursed beneath his skin. Furthermore, his Spirit Body was perfected, and his Divine Soul was seven-colored!

If he didn’t even dare to face these geniuses from the Noble Families and Sects for a great battle after all this, then he could forget about ever getting far on his path of cultivation.

"Life and death is cultivation, the Great Dao faces the heavens! How can an ant dare to overturn the sky? How easy is it for a mayfly to shake a tree? I shall ride the winds and strike! The four seas churn as clouds and water rage, the Five Domains tremble as wind and thunder stir! I will sweep through heaven and earth, completely invincible!"

With the Ancient Medicine Cauldron on his back, a sword in one hand and condensing a palm strike in the other, Jiang Jichen’s steps became a blur as he charged forward to kill.

The stronger the enemy, the stronger I become! My will to fight shakes the heavens! Kill!

At this moment, Jiang Jichen seemed to have entered a frenzy, completely immersed in his strongest combat state. He was invincible, ready to kill to his heart’s content!

PFFT!

Dodging the vast majority of the attacks, Jiang Jichen flashed in front of a weaker Foundation Establishment Cultivator and lopped off his head with a single slash.

Of course, he took a sword blow himself, which pierced his chest.

But Jiang Jichen paid it no mind. With a surge of power from within, he forcibly blasted the longsword out of his body, letting his blood spray into the air.

"Two."

His voice was devoid of all emotion, utterly calm.

But just then, from a distance, the sword of the Flowing Cloud Sect’s second senior brother, the Daoist Skills of Ling Dong from Lingxu Temple, the Divine Rune Condensation Array of Su Hao from the Su Family, and the Life Killing Technique of the Cang Family once again descended to kill him.

Among all these attacks, the one Jiang Jichen perceived as the greatest threat was the Surprise Rainbow Sword of the Flowing Cloud Sect’s second senior brother, which had now been unsealed to its third layer.

This strike was none other than the One Thought Life and Death Sword!

Jiang Jichen’s expression turned grave. He could already feel that this sword strike had the power to kill him, and what’s more... he couldn’t dodge it!

’If I can’t dodge it, then there’s no need to. To survive, I just have to be stronger than it.’

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Jichen’s eyes, and he unleashed a Sword Skill.

Thoughtless Rebirth, Thoughtless Reincarnation, Thoughtless Emptiness... Thoughtless Life and Death Sword!

The moment this sword appeared, terror struck everyone. For an instant, everything was plunged into a state of absolute emptiness.

PFFT! PFFT!

Jiang Jichen flashed forward, swung his sword, and severed the heads of the four closest disciples from the Noble Families and Sects.

"Six."

When everything returned to normal, Jiang Jichen was already floating in the distance, his cool voice echoing across the entire platform.
