Myriad Daos of the Heaven

He knew that Jiang Jichen had entered the Phoenix Nest.

Just moments ago, Jiang Jichen had used the Rebirth Undying Technique from the Demon Phoenix Remnant Technique to instantly recover to a near-peak state.

That was why he currently appeared unharmed, his combat prowess astonishing.

He had caught them by surprise, slaughtering eight Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Everyone gasped.

This time, they had finally witnessed Jiang Jichen’s true power.

His endless repertoire of techniques, his ability to come back from the brink of death—it was all too terrifying.

If not for the five Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators, he might have actually broken out of the Southern Continent and escaped to the Central State.

Just now, a single Sword Technique from the Ancient Wandering Dragon lineage had wiped out eight Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.

But the cost to Jiang Jichen was immense, and his face had become deathly pale.

While the Demon Phoenix Remnant Technique could grant him instantaneous recovery, his power was by no means truly at its peak.

At the very least, it couldn’t be sustained.

For instance, that single Sword Technique had consumed nearly half of Jiang Jichen’s remaining Spiritual Power.

Even if he continuously refined Spirit Pills, he could never keep up with the expenditure.

Now, despite having killed eight Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, he was still in mortal danger.

Because the most powerful enemies were standing right in front of him, having yet to make a move.

"Jiang Jichen, so that was your trump card. Now that you’ve used it, what else do you have to fight us with?"

Nangong Wanyu finally stepped forward.

She was exceedingly beautiful, possessing the mature charm of a married woman. Her graceful, lotus-like steps exuded an enchanting allure.

Moreover, she was aloof and cold, inspiring in others a desire to conquer her.

Looking at the beautiful woman across from him, Jiang Jichen chuckled. "Miss Wanyu, it seems your backside is itching again. Feeling the need for another spanking?"

Nangong Wanyu, who had stepped forward with a powerful and aloof aura, choked on her breath.

She had been fine until Jiang Jichen spoke. The moment he did, she could almost feel a fiery pain flaring up in that very spot.

The shame of it drove her mad, making it impossible to maintain her composure.

The surrounding crowd suddenly fell into a strange silence.

No one would have brought it up, but his words immediately reminded some of the scene they had witnessed on the Imaging Stone.

Nangong Wanyu’s spanked ass!

However, very few had actually seen this scene, as the Nangong Family had suppressed it and forbidden its circulation.

Of course, even if they couldn’t see it, the story had already spread. Everyone knew about it.

They just didn’t dare discuss it.

So, when Jiang Jichen brought up the old incident, everyone understood immediately, and strange expressions appeared on their faces.

Among them, Young Master Shan was one of the few who had seen the footage.

The memory of it, the sheer humiliation, was enough to drive him mad.

He had surely become an object of ridicule.

Even if no one dared to laugh out loud.

"Jiang Jichen, I will tear you to shreds!"

Nangong Wanyu shrieked, all thoughts of composure gone, and charged madly toward Jiang Jichen.

Space Splitting Technique!

She unleashed a Half-Immortal Technique from the very start.

Moreover, she wasn’t suppressing her Realm this time. The power of this technique was on a completely different level than before.

Jiang Jichen’s blood ran cold; he sensed mortal danger.

’Against these Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm experts, if I were at my peak, I could handle one of them.’

’But right now, my situation is dire.’

But just then, a large machete suddenly flew through the air.

A Purple Whip followed, striking through the air like a bolt of violet lightning.

Both were aimed at Nangong Wanyu.

The power of these attacks was no weaker than that of an ordinary Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Furthermore, the power contained within the attacks was extraordinary and profound.

PFFT!

The Light of Restriction was sliced open, unable to stop them in the slightest.

At that moment, the crowd saw that the large machete and the Purple Whip seemed to be imbued with a strange power that could shatter any defense.

At the same time, the large machete and the Purple Whip conjured infinite phantoms of blade and whip, actually sealing the surrounding space.

They blocked Nangong Wanyu’s Space Splitting Technique.

Then, two petite figures flashed through the opening they had cut in the Restriction, landing gracefully beside Jiang Jichen.

Yee Youmeng and Hua Xiaoling!

Jiang Jichen stared at the two girls, momentarily stunned.

He never imagined they would appear at a time like this.

He hadn’t seen them in over a year, and seeing them again now was a stunning experience.

Hua Xiaoling was still a pretty young girl, full of youthful vitality, but now she also seemed to carry an ancient Dao rhythm. It felt as though her entire being was fused with the Heaven and Earth Dao.

She had previously entered the Spirit Vein Secret Realm, which could completely unseal her bloodline.

Now, the seal on her bloodline had clearly been fully released, and her Spirit Vein had awakened. Otherwise, there was no way she could have appeared here.

And her Cultivation... Half-step Nascent Soul Realm!

This...

Jiang Jichen was almost scared stiff.

He never expected that once Hua Xiaoling’s bloodline was unsealed, her Cultivation would progress so terrifyingly fast, far surpassing his own.

Then there was Yee Youmeng. She had entered the Star Nether Secret Realm.

The night has stars, the stars have light; it allows one to explore the body’s mysteries and open its Divine Treasures. Such were the wonders of the Star Nether Secret Realm.

Yee Youmeng seemed to have opened a Divine Treasure within her body. Her Cultivation had also soared to the Initial Stage of Nascent Soul, far surpassing Jiang Jichen’s.

Her combat strength was absolutely unfathomable.

However, her face had not changed, which meant her Seal of Forgetting was still intact.

Yee Youmeng still had that same small, cold face, but her skin was even fairer, faintly glowing with a mystical luster.

She was beautiful and full of allure, making people feel an involuntary urge to draw closer.

The changes in the two girls could only be described as earth-shattering.

"Haha... Hua Girl, Little Youmeng, you’re just in time! Watch how I deal with that hag Nangong Wanyu!"

Seeing Hua Xiaoling and Yee Youmeng, Jiang Jichen was overjoyed and excited.

They hadn’t seen each other in over a year. To meet again now and see that they were both safe and sound—what could be better in this world?

So, he didn’t hesitate to share the proudest moment of his past year with them!

Seeing Jiang Jichen, Hua Xiaoling was also filled with excitement and joy. Just like before, her eyes sparkled with stars as she looked at him with utter adoration and infatuation. "Really? Little Chen, you’re so amazing! I... I really like you so much!"

"Haha... Hua Girl, I have even more amazing things to show you. We can... discuss them in private later."

Jiang Jichen said with a mischievous grin.

"Heh heh..."

However, Yee Youmeng, who was standing beside him, shot him a cool glance and let out a cold laugh.

"What are you ’heh’-ing about, Little Youmeng? What’s with that look? Forget it. Your big bro is happy today, so I won’t hold it against you. It’s been so long, come give me a hug!"

As he spoke, Jiang Jichen moved to hug Yee Youmeng.

But the large machete suddenly appeared in Yee Youmeng’s hand.

A frosty aura spread out. Jiang Jichen shivered, froze in place, and rubbed his nose. "Alright, I get it. Kill the enemies first, hug later!"

Jiang Jichen said shamelessly.

While the three of them were catching up as if no one else was there, the faces of Nangong Wanyu and the other four Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators had already turned livid.

Nangong Wanyu, in particular, was on the verge of going berserk.

Because Jiang Jichen had just casually shared her humiliation with the people beside him.
