When Jiang Liu thought of this, he suddenly felt extremely frustrated.
If what I've guessed is true, then it means that my path to the Saint Realm is completely cut off.
It seems that the decline of the Saint Heaven Sect must be related to the loss of the Heavenly Dao in this world.
After all, it's impossible to cultivate and advance in the Saintly Sky Art without those Special Essence Particles.
Wait a minute, Jiang Liu suddenly remembered that he could now cultivate the Saintly Sky Art, which meant that the Heavenly Dao was not completely dead.
Moreover, the prying eyes that appeared when the oath was made also proved that the Heavenly Dao was not dead.
What's going on? Could it be that the Heavenly Dao has already abandoned this world?
Therefore, it is forbidden for any more Saint Realm realms to appear in this world?
However, Jiang Liu's spirits soon lifted.
Because he thought that martial arts cultivation is about fighting against the heavens and constantly cultivating oneself to break through the limits of life.
How could I possibly give up so easily?
Since the Heavenly Dao of this world have already rejected and abandoned this place.
Then I'll break its cage myself and see how it can control and manipulate this place.
As soon as Jiang Liu had this thought, the sky suddenly changed color. The sky, which had been sunny just moments before, was now suddenly covered with dark clouds.
Among them, a flash of lightning struck directly at Jiang Liu.
The lightning bolt struck directly at Jiang Liu's Divine Sense sea, seemingly aiming to completely annihilate Jiang Liu consciousness.
However, the moment the lightning entered Jiang Liu's Divine Sense, it vanished without a trace.
As if he had never been there, Jiang Liu not only felt no pain, but also felt extremely comfortable, as if he had taken a powerful tonic.
The Data Panel appeared automatically without Jiang Liu even having to use his mind.
Name: Jiang Liu
Realm: Grandmaster (Peak Grandmaster 6556/)
Divine Sense: 11.01 kilometers (Characteristic: Devour)
Alchemy (Minor Success 25/500)
Medical Skills (Mastery 32/5000)
Cultivation Technique: Annihilation by Thought (Heaven Grade, Peak Rank)
Saintly Sky Art (Saint Grade Mastery) Holy Skill: Saintly Sky Strike
Nebula Art (Saint Grade Mastery) Saint Skill: Nebula Extinction
Jiang Liu was overjoyed to see this, because the Data Panel had blocked the lightning bolt for him.
Moreover, this thunderous strike directly increased his Divine Sense by one thousand meters.
Could there be anything better than this?
Jiang Liu quickly continued to chant silently in his mind, trying to break through this Heavenly Dao.
Unfortunately, Jiang Liu chanted for a long time, but the lightning never appeared again.
Jiang Liu was so angry he wanted to curse out loud. What kind of nonsense is this? Is it really that weak?
After that one blow, he was out of strength? Couldn't he land a few more?
A while later, not only did the thunder not return, but even the dark clouds had dispersed.
It seems that the Heavenly Dao of this world is truly dead.
Jiang Liu was filled with resentment. Only now did he realize that he seemed to be truly being targeted.
Jiang Liu turned to Murong Yin and Feng Yue, who were practicing together, and asked, "Didn't you see the strange phenomenon that happened here just now?"
Murong Yin and Feng Yue stopped. Murong Yin asked, "What kind of strange phenomenon is this? It's been scorching hot all the time! There's been no change."
Feng Yue, who was standing to the side, also nodded.
"It's nothing, maybe I was just imagining things. You guys continue your cultivation!" Jiang Liu said with a hint of helplessness.
The two women nodded and then began sparring again. They usually practiced their moves during the day and cultivated their martial arts at night.
Jiang Liu now knows for certain that he is indeed being targeted.
Because that strange phenomenon was only directed at him; even Murong Yin and Feng Yue, who were right next to him, were unaware of it.
So what he felt just now was definitely not fake.
That's why I often feel that this world is full of malice towards me.
However, I'm lucky to have this Auxiliary Data Panel, because it can block attacks from the Heavenly Dao! No matter what it is.
After saying that, Jiang Liu mentally gave the Heavenly Dao the middle finger, thinking, "Go ahead and chop me down if you dare."
As a result, the Heavenly Dao was incredibly cowardly and didn't react at all.
Now we know that the Heavenly Dao seems to be dead, yet it also seems not to be dead.
That makes things easier. At least Jiang Liu knows that the two states now produce Special Essence Particles for cultivating the Saintly Sky Art.
Therefore, there are still ways to advance to the Saint Realm, it's just a bit difficult.
However, Jiang Liu is no longer discouraged or frustrated.
Moreover, he was also thinking about whether there was a chance to overthrow this inhuman Heavenly Dao.
As a result, Jiang Liu silently chanted in his heart many times, "I will destroy this damned Heavenly Dao."
But no thunderbolt appeared, leaving Jiang Liu, who wanted to exploit the bug, without getting a single benefit.
At this moment, the messenger from the Listening Wind Pavilion who was standing outside the door walked in, cupped his hands towards Jiang Liu and said, "Lord, Lin Chi and Chen Qiansong request an audience."
"Let them go to the council hall! I'll be there soon," Jiang Liu said.
"Yes!" The messenger from the Listening Wind Pavilion bowed and left.
Since Murong Yin and Feng Yue were cultivating here, Jiang Liu decided to receive them in the council hall so as not to disturb them.
Jiang Liu greeted Murong Yin and Feng Yue, washed up, and headed towards the council hall.
As soon as Jiang Liu stepped into the council hall, Lin Chi and Chen Qiansong immediately stood up and bowed to Jiang Liu, saying, "My lord."
"Sit down! Is there something you need?" Jiang Liu waved his hand and said.
Neither of them were in Yuncheng yesterday, so they didn't come to Jiang Liu's place.
"My lord, there is something I need to report to you," Lin Chi said after sitting down.
"Oh? Tell me, what is it?" Jiang Liu asked with a hint of interest.
"We've located Corpse Valley's lair, and the last Minor Grandmaster Corpse Valley has been eliminated," Lin Chi replied.
Jiang Liu nodded. It seemed that Dark Star Hall was quite effective under Lin Chi's management.
You should know that the remnants of Corpse Valley have been tracking him for several years, and it has only now been completely found. It seems that he was hiding very well.
"Furthermore, that Minor Grandmaster has confessed and provided evidence of their transactions with the Lotus Sect," Lin Chi continued.
"My lord, shall we?" Lin Chi asked, making a gesture.
"Sir, recently, several unfamiliar faces have appeared among the assassins accepting orders on the Assassination List," Chen Qiansong said from the side.
Jiang Liu laughed upon hearing this and said, "Then let those unfamiliar faces on the Assassination List handle this. If they can't accomplish it, they have no reason to exist."
"Even if it's finished, you can decide what to do with it! As for Kuang Qianzi, if you can't touch her, then leave her for now."
Jiang Liu didn't need to speculate much about the unfamiliar assassins who appeared on the Assassination List; they were either remnants of the Haotian Sect or remnants of the Great Qian Imperial Family.
It seems they're planning to cause trouble here.
Unfortunately, they had no idea that they were now in control of the Assassination List and would not give them any chance.
