"Poof!" Jiang Xuan spat out fresh blood, thrown back a full hundred feet. He crashed into three towering trees in succession before finally flipping in mid-air and landing, sliding another ten feet. He gripped his sword tightly, then suddenly looked up at Lei Hong, his heart churning with waves of shock. "Is this the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm?! All he needs to do is stand there without moving, using the force of the heavens and earth. With just a thought, I can’t even get close. If I force my way through, it will only hurt myself!"
Jiang Xuan had just mastered the "Illusory Phantom Ghost Slash" and hadn’t even had ti to feel pride before Lei Hong taught him a harsh reality check.
"There must be a huge gap between different levels of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm," Jiang Xuan thought.
Lei Hong was equally shocked. Generally, those in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm don’t possess a real domain! This ability is sothing that one must comprehend in the process of advancing toward the path of gods and demons.
Lei Hong had a three-foot domain, and any god or demon would have a domain at least a thousand feet in size.
The "residual wave of the real domain" that suppressed the space was far more powerful than simply manipulating the force of the heavens and earth! Jiang Xuan had actually broken through it! He could actually touch his real domain!
This was sothing that so Heavenly Tribulation Realm cultivators couldn’t even accomplish!
"How could he have touched your real domain?!" Liao Wei still couldn’t comprehend.
Since he wasn’t the one receiving the strike, he didn’t fully understand the sensation of Jiang Xuan’s move.
"It’s his sword technique that’s the problem!"
Lei Hong suddenly seed to understand sothing. "That sword technique itself has a restraining effect on the crystallization of the heavens and earth, even on domains! To create such a sword technique, the one who did so must either be a peak Heavenly Tribulation cultivator, who has reached an extrely deep understanding of the real domain, or… it’s a god or demon who specializes in domain cultivation!"
"I’ve never seen this sword technique before, nor have I heard of it. It’s not a famous sword technique."
Liao Wei said, "And this technique, which has a 'breaking space' effect, whether it’s swordsmanship, swordplay, or spear techniques, to say it’s worth its weight in gold wouldn’t be an exaggeration! If we auctioned it at the Tongtian Pavilion in Flying Snow City, its price would often be several tis higher than other advanced Heavenly Tribulation sword techniques!"
"This sword technique isn’t famous yet, which can only an one thing! It must have been created in the last hundred years! And Jiang Xuan is the first person to successfully cultivate it after its creation!"
Jiang Xuan overheard Liao Wei and Lei Hong’s conversation from afar and couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration.
This senior Liao Wei was indeed the head of the Tongtian Pavilion in Flying Snow City! When it ca to knowledge and experience, even Lei Hong couldn’t compare to him.
To think he guessed almost everything right!
Jiang Xuan could confirm that, aside from Senior Qin Yuan, the creator of the God Demon Supre Blade, he was probably the first person to successfully cultivate this sword technique! The Blade of Tribulation had been with the three Ge brothers, but they didn’t have enough talent to master even the first move, "Illusory Phantom Ghost Slash."
"Breaking space effect..." Jiang Xuan felt a wave of excitent.
In fact, he had just learned that this sword technique had a "breaking space" effect. He only realized this after using it twice; it wasn’t ntioned in the Blade of Tribulation.
In other words... the Ge brothers, who had once possessed the Blade of Tribulation book, didn’t know its true value!
Jiang Xuan felt like he had so luck on his side.
He transford into an afterimage, flashing twice, and was soon in front of Lei Hong and Liao Wei.
"Jiang Xuan, I’ll ask you!" Lei Hong’s tone was serious. "Where did you get this sword technique?"
"The Ge brothers had it, Blade of Tribulation," Jiang Xuan answered directly. He knew Lei Hong was trying to help him, so there was nothing to hide. The only thing he couldn’t talk about was Senior Qi Shi, but everything else could be said.
"Trophies? That’s good!" Lei Hong nodded.
"The Ge brothers couldn’t have had a Blade of Tribulation like this." Liao Wei narrowed his eyes. "It must have been that devil, Lü Kong, who got it from sowhere, not realizing how powerful the sword technique was, nor having any idea to learn it. He just gave it to his disciple casually... Lü Kong’s evil deeds are too many; he deserves to lose such a treasure!"
When Lü Kong was ntioned, Liao Wei’s face darkened with anger.
He had a deep blood feud with Lü Kong! That’s why he had co to Flying Snow City’s Tongtian Pavilion from the Jiang Clan's Earth City! Lei Hong was the inspector responsible for capturing Lü Kong!
"Jiang Xuan, listen to ." Lei Hong looked at Jiang Xuan with a serious tone. "This sword technique, don’t show it to outsiders easily! In regular fights, don’t use it unless absolutely necessary! Only in life-and-death situations should you bring it out! You’ve always talked about your trump card, right? Well, that’s it! Keep it hidden!"
"My lord, do you think...?" Jiang Xuan hesitated and asked.
"I’ll explain." Liao Wei took over the conversation. "This sword technique’s 'breaking space effect' counters the suppression, freezing, and even the domains created by manipulating the force of the heavens and earth. It can tear apart space to a certain extent. Of course, you’re still at a low cultivation level, so you haven’t truly torn apart space, but even just so space wrinkles, so shifts in the spatial layer, are enough to destroy the crystallization of space..."
"In other words, this sword technique has a rare feature, making it particularly valuable, right?" Jiang Xuan asked directly.
"Exactly!" Liao Wei nodded. "And you’re just a tribal leader! If others in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm find out that you possess such a valuable sword technique, it will bring you danger! Many in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm will get greedy and take risks against you!"
"I understand." Jiang Xuan cupped his hands in gratitude. "Thank you, Lord Lei Hong, Senior Liao Wei, for the reminder!"
"Next." Lei Hong pulled out a bottle of pills from sowhere and tossed it to Jiang Xuan. "For healing."
"My lord, I’m fine."
Jiang Xuan smiled, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth but still accepted the pill bottle, uncorked it, and poured out a jade-green pill, swallowing it imdiately.
It dissolved in his mouth, and Jiang Xuan instantly felt extrely comfortable.
In fact, the reason he had spat out blood wasn’t just from the backlash; using the "Illusory Phantom Ghost Slash" itself caused injury. He had used it twice in a row, and combined with the backlash, that’s why he vomited blood.
There were three pills in the bottle, and Jiang Xuan only took one. In a few breaths, he felt his injuries heal.
These were probably healing pills for those in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, and Lei Hong must have used high-quality ones. For soone at the Innate stage, it was like using a cannon to shoot at a fly.
"That move of yours, no Innate stage cultivator can resist it." Lei Hong said again, "One force can overwhelm ten techniques. Even soone who has mastered 'returning to simplicity' cannot break your move with skill. Without a doubt, you are the strongest Innate cultivator in Flying Snow City’s jurisdiction."
Jiang Xuan felt a surge of excitent.
Chen Yuanxuan had told him that being the strongest in the Innate stage ca with great benefits! The imperial court would reward him, and he might even et the Lord of the God Demon City!
"But my lord, if I challenge the current number one Innate, won’t that expose this move...?" Jiang Xuan hesitated and asked.
"No need." Lei Hong waved his hand. "Your situation is special. To protect such a genius, I will directly explain the matter to the City Lord. You’re stronger than the others on the Innate rankings by more than just a little, so you don’t need to challenge anyone. You’ll be directly recognized as the strongest Innate! The rewards for being the strongest Innate... I’ll make arrangents for you. Don’t worry, you’ll get your due."
"Then can I et the City Lord?" Jiang Xuan eagerly asked.
"Yes." Lei Hong nodded.
Jiang Xuan was even more excited.
That’s the God Demon! Although he had communicated with Senior Qi Shi through voice, he had never t a God Demon in person. Only a few people in Flying Snow City’s jurisdiction had t the God Demon Lord.
Strictly speaking, the God Demon was no longer "human."
They were higher-level beings who surpassed ordinary mortals! Their lifespans were at least a thousand years! Every God Demon would beco an ancient existence, and the Lord of Flying Snow City... had been in power for over a thousand years since the day the Jiang Clan was born, and it hadn’t changed!
It was always the sa God Demon!
Would he finally et him?
The ruler of this land for over a thousand years, covering a hundred thousand miles!
Jiang Xuan wanted to beco a God Demon, and clearly, the sooner he t the true God Demon, the more beneficial it would be for his future cultivation!
"My lord, I have one more question!" Jiang Xuan looked at Lei Hong and asked.
