Realm-Hopping Martial Master

"Greetings, Venerable, Greetings, Your Highness."

Yu Tianming quickly bowed and saluted, his tone filled with unconcealable joy.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on achieving the Realm of Venerable!"

Her expression was respectful, and every word she spoke was imbued with disbelief and shock.

Luo Venerable restrained his laughter, but the smile and pride in his eyes were not diminished in the slightest, "You came just in time, go and prepare a banquet!"

Even though Luo Venerable was always calm by nature, he couldn’t suppress the smile on his face at this moment.

He knew too well what Jiang Shu’s ascension to the Venerable meant.

Although their Jiuyu Commerce Alliance had entered the Inner Circle of the Star Ruins Realm this time, their foundation was still unstable.

Now, as long as Jiang Shu’s ascension to the Realm of Venerable is spread, even if it doesn’t bring new expansion, it can at least stabilize the basics of Jiuyu Commerce Alliance.

More importantly, given Jiang Shu’s talent, aptitude, and fortune, as long as they are willing to protect his path and give him enough time.

Perhaps, in a few thousand years, their Jiuyu Commerce Alliance could have a Saint to hold the fort!

Truly becoming a super-power in the entire cosmos.

At the banquet, Jiang Shu sat down unceremoniously and first exchanged insights on key points of laws with Luo Venerable.

Later, he briefly recounted his journey with the War Alliance and the thrilling encounters within the Saint Tomb.

Of course, he chose to keep the core secret of the mysterious Black Stone.

He focused on describing the Saint’s lectures, encounters with the Insect Emperor’s Guards, the contention with the Mechanical Clan, and finally the process of breaking the realm with the help of the Black Stone.

Even so, Luo Venerable and Yu Tianming were enraptured, their minds stirred.

"Clearly, you possess fortune that ordinary people do not have; even I have never heard a Saint’s lecture."

"Of course, such great fortune is not something ordinary people can bear. Even the geniuses in our Business Association, if they enter such a dangerous place, they would likely meet their end."

Luo Venerable clicked his tongue twice.

It’s only due to his stable mind, being in the Realm of Venerable; were it an ordinary Tenth Realm, they would be swayed, wanting to follow Jiang Shu and hear a Saint’s lecture.

If even Luo Venerable is like this, let alone Yu Tianming beside him, she was more surprised, while also feeling a bit of urgency.

The speed at which His Highness breaks through realms is so fast, it even gives her a sense of despair.

If she remains stagnant in her current realm, her position might soon be replaced by newcomers.

Judging from His Highness Jiang Shu’s realm breakthrough, it seems that his ascension within the Realm of Venerable might not be slow either.

Perhaps it won’t be long before even some Venerables may have to follow His Highness’s lead.

By that time, what would she be as just a Tenth Realm?

"Venerable, the War Alliance has aided me greatly, and this breakthrough was also advised by the Supreme Elder of the War Alliance. After this gathering, I will head to the Business Association to inform them."

Upon hearing Jiang Shu say this, Luo Venerable nodded and said:

"It’s necessary to inform them."

"After all, there are Saints in the War Alliance, and only at our level of the Venerable Realm will you understand that although it’s just a big realm, the gap cannot be simply described."

Upon reaching Venerable, the cultivation of the realm is considerably slow.

The gap between Venerable and Saint is larger than even between the Tenth Realm and Venerable.

Even he wouldn’t easily imagine himself stepping into the Saint Realm.

Unlike Jiang Shu, who has a great possibility.

The help Jiuyu Commerce Alliance can offer to Jiang Shu in the future will get increasingly smaller.

Therefore, for Jiang Shu, the earlier he can establish a foothold in the War Alliance, the more resources he can obtain, quicker paving his way to the Saint Realm.

Jiang Shu was in no rush, leisurely chatting with Luo Venerable, occasionally demonstrating the laws he had mastered.

Some laws had been comprehended by Yu Tianming as well.

From the first moment, Yu Tianming recognized His Highness’s intention, immersing her entire mind in the scene.

The Dao Yun around her grew increasingly dense.

When she finally regained her senses, the banquet was already over.

Jiang Shu sat calmly, sent a message to Zhan Feng, far away in the War Alliance.

Soon after sending the message, a simple Jade Pendant on Jiang Shu’s waist suddenly lit up with blinding light, an almost shattering voice of laughter and shouting came from within the Jade Talisman:

"Venerable!"

"I knew it, I knew you could do it!"

"Are you in the Eternal Tower? My brother and I will be there soon!"

"Such a joyous event, how could we not come to the Eternal Tower Base to share a drink of Ten Thousand Stars Brew?!"

"Wait for us!"

Jiang Shu’s bond with Zhan Feng and Zhan Yun was one that had stood the test of life, and Zhan Feng was genuinely happy.

He had been sealed for far too long; to them, reaching the Realm of Venerable was not the final goal.

If it were merely seeking the Venerable Realm, they wouldn’t have needed to seal themselves. With time and resources from the War Alliance, they could have achieved this realm.

However, in doing so, their upper limit would be set.

They would never reach the Saint Realm in this lifetime.

They were constantly refining themselves, just a hair’s breadth from the Realm of Venerable.

Though they knew from the beginning that Jiang Shu’s seclusion was for breaking into the realm and becoming a Venerable.

They didn’t expect this day to come so quickly.

Following this was Zhan Yun’s cool yet excited voice.

"Brother Dao, congratulations, my brother and I are already on our way."

The voice was crisp and clear, yet carried an added warmth that was hard to detect than usual.

"I’ll speak no more, the two of us are already en route."

The communication ended. Before Jiang Shu could get up to leave, Luo Venerable spoke:

"Go ahead, I’ll inform the Business Association of this event, arranging continued cultivation resources for you without letting them inform others."

"Just be careful on the road; after all, the Mechanical Clan and Insect Clan suffered a loss at your hands. From what I know of them, they certainly won’t let it rest."

After pondering for a moment, he waved his hand, and a fully dark-gold Jade Token with intricate defense runes flew into Jiang Shu’s hand.

"Take this Mystic Jade Talisman, infused with Dao Yun, it’s enough to withstand a full force attack of a Middle Stage Venerable."

"Keep it on you as a precaution."

Jiang Shu was not pretentious, directly accepting the Jade Token.

Even though he had ascended to Venerable, if faced with a powerful Venerable’s assault, he might not fare well.

With this Jade Token, his chances of success would significantly increase.

"Thank you, Venerable."

Jiang Shu cupped his hands.

He knew this Jade Token required prolonged infusion of Dao Yun and likely cost Luo Venerable a lot of effort. This protective gesture was something he had to remember.

"Your Highness, should your subordinate accompany you?"

Seeing Jiang Shu seemingly about to leave, Yu Tianming hurriedly asked.

"No need, I must personally tear through space for this journey and am not yet skilled enough to bring others."

"You should cultivate well here. I obtained some opportunities from the Saint Tomb; take them."

Saying so, with a wave of his hand, a mountain-like pile of cultivation resources appeared.

These were resources he gained from the Saint Tomb, which were no longer of great use for his current realm, but for Yu Tianming and others, they were of great value.

"Your Heavenly Snake Law is aggressive yet gentle, with great potential."

"During this time, learn more from the Venerable, build a strong foundation without haste."

"Tianming will not disappoint Your Highness’ expectations!"

Yu Tianming solemnly pledged.

Jiang Shu nodded, bidding farewell to Luo Venerable once more before his figure flickered and he vanished, heading towards the vicinity of the Eternal Tower.

Days later, two immensely powerful auras arrived, complementing each other, riding a Star Artifact to tear space, it was none other than Zhan Feng and Zhan Yun siblings.

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Reaching the Venerable Realm is indeed a whole new world!"

Zhan Feng still maintained his brawny and unrestrained appearance, seemingly unchanged.

Yet Jiang Shu could immediately see the Law of Power within him had advanced to a completely new level.

Evidently, during this time, Zhan Feng had made further breakthroughs.
