The excitement comes and goes quickly.

Three days after Jiang Ping unleashed the Changshi Fist, the Imperial City gradually returned to peace.

He's now willing to come out and meet people.

That evening.

A unique banquet was held at the Jiang Saint Mansion.

Jiang Ping didn't join Jiang Saint and the others at their table. After meeting the group of visitors, he gathered with old acquaintances to drink and chat.

"I never expected you to be so unparalleled; you've only been a Saint for a short time, yet you're already nearly invincible."

Murong Shu drank her wine, her face flushed, somewhat excited.

"It is also thanks to Brother Murong's help that I have Becoming a Saint so quickly."

Jiang Ping raised his glass, expressing his gratitude to the Murong Family for their proactive assistance when he desperately needed resources back then.

"It's mainly because you have amazing talent."

Murong Shu smiled, then sighed, with a hint of resentment. "Only you, even if you were invincible, would be willing to drink with us."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ping asked.

"Martial Saint Murong once visited Lightning and Thunder Martial Saint in the Brilliant Dynasty with a large amount of resources, showing great interest in that Jimie Heavenly Technique, but he couldn't even cross the threshold."

Shangguan Hong recounted an old story.

In fact, the reason why the Lightning and Thunder Martial Saint was able to become the Number One Under Heaven was because of the ancestral Thunder Method of the Murong Family.

Although the Murong Clan later used their favor, Martial Saint Murong's visit was clearly intended to exchange resources. Even if the other party was unwilling, at least they could meet, since he was, after all, a Peerless Wusheng.

However, Martial Saint Murong didn't even manage to set foot in the opponent's dojo, and afterwards he became the subject of gossip among the powerful figures from all sides.

Jiang Ping was strange. He had encountered a similar situation when he first came out of Dao Mountain, but he never expected that person to be Martial Saint Murong.

"Perhaps our Old Ancestor was being presumptuous. After all, that person even killed someone at the Half-Step Seventh Heaven, clearly indicating they were unwilling to reveal their abilities."

Murong Shu continued.

"That's all in the past. We have the Void Palm Technique and the Changshi Fist Technique, why would we need the Jimie Heavenly Technique?" Gu Ling laughed.

Jiang Saint also passed on the subsequent concepts of the Void Palm to her, which involved Divine Intent and were very powerful.

She was stunned. She had never imagined that Jiang Saint would also put this Heavenly Art into practice with Divine Intent. Her clan's Old Ancestor was so excited that he shed tears. He was overjoyed.

Nowadays, with the two Heavenly Art of Great Li, one can Becoming a Saint. It can be guaranteed that the world's geniuses are not afraid of overflowing talent. As long as one is exceptionally gifted, one need not fear the senior figures who have accumulated experience.

"But it's also difficult to master. My ancestor studied the Void Palm for a long time after obtaining it and bluntly said that Martial Bone Talent would find it difficult to master such a divine Heavenly Art," Jiang Jun said.

"Is it that difficult?" Gu Ling raised an eyebrow. She had also read the palm technique's concept, but she didn't feel anything.

"Several Peerless martial arts masters have compared and discussed this, Void Palm is a level more difficult than the Changshi Fist."

Murong Shu spoke, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ping.

Even Jiang Saint, a man of Martial Bone Talent, considered the Heavenly Art extremely difficult to master, yet he directly put it into Divine Intent.

Is Jiang Ping's mind filled with Immortal Dew and Jade Liquor?

The banquet was in full swing, but before it ended, Jiang Ping was invited to the innermost private table where no one would disturb him.

Here, Jiang Ping met several martial arts masters from the Ancient Aristocratic Family, Shangguan and Murong, as well as the Old Ancestor of Gu Ling.

Today, he is able to stand on equal footing with such Peerless martial saints who reign supreme over the world.

No, he sat in the main seat, and all the saints offered him wine.

"Throughout the entire history of Xuanxin Island, your talent is comparable only to that Matchless Strong Person who once ventured into the Near Dao," Shangguan Chun praised.

The implication is that if Jiang Ping can achieve the same, he has a good chance of entering the Near-Dao Realm.

"Undoubtedly, our clan's most illustrious ancestor came incredibly close to this realm, but ultimately failed to achieve it; otherwise, he wouldn't have only reached the Half-Step Heavenly Technique."

Martial Saint Murong said.

Although Heavenly Might Technique are strong, they are only considered Half-Step Heavenly Technique. This was created by his ancestors who spent their entire lives to achieve it.

That Peerless Figures from his clan left behind a few words, saying that to create a complete Heavenly Art, one must at least be Near-Dao Being, or possess Dao Seed with the Near-Dao Talent.

It's obvious that Jiang Ping is this kind of person.

"I once thought I could walk the same path as you, but now it seems I can only follow in your footsteps; I'll learn from wherever you deduce the future."

"The Martial Saint Changchun laughed."

She read about the Changshi Fist) and became enamored with the classic text, believing that mastering it might grant her Eternal Youth.

Similarly, the deeper she went, the more she felt the reality of Jiang Ping's talent. There were some things she had imagined before, but she was ultimately unable to complete them herself. Until she saw the concepts that Jiang Ping added, she always had a sense of "Oh, so that's how it is."

"I won't say much more; it's all in the wine."

Jiang Saint raised his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Compared to others, he had spent time with Jiang Ping day and night and was already aware of the junior's exceptional comprehension.

"By the way, I'm very curious."

At this moment, Martial Saint Murong spoke again, saying:

"If we use the Void Divine Intent, could we open a Spatial Channel leading to the Xuanxin Island?"

He read about the subsequent concepts of the Void Palm and learned about many methods related to this Invincible Technique, including the ability to teleport over long distances using the Void Divine Intent.

Jiang Ping must have also relied on this skill to leave Dao Mountain unharmed.

If this Divine Intent is followed, will it be possible to leave Xuanxin Island?

Upon hearing this, all the saints looked at Jiang Ping.

In the world today, or even for the next hundred years, there is only one person who can grasp the Void Divine Intent.

What exactly is around Xuanxin Island?

Jiang Ping countered with a question.

To this day, he still doesn't know what kind of blockade Xuanxin Island is under.

However, even the saints did not know the answer to this question.

"On that day, mist blew in from all directions around Xuanxin Island, and ever since then, no one has been able to leave the island."

Jiang Saint said.

This is the ultimate problem that has trapped millions of Martial Artist on Xuanxin Island.

Many remarkable figures could have entered a state of divine transcendence, or even approached the highest realm.

In the end, however, he could only grow old and sigh longingly as he looked out over the island.

"The last one possessed extremely high talent in the Divine Travel realm. He also cultivated Lightning Technique and reached the peak of the Divine Peak realm. He was ambitious and wanted to open a path for Martial Artist all over the world. He set sail with high spirits, but ended up with indelible Dao Injury. His later years were unknown."

"That's what Martial Saint Murong said."

"However, you have given me hope!"

Martial Saint Murong looked at Jiang Ping with anticipation.

This was also the main reason why he took action against Shang Mingyuan in anger after learning about the other party's true talent.

Some martial arts masters only thought about relying on Jiang Ping to practice the Changshi Fist to prolong their lives, but he hoped that this young man could do something even more shocking, such as...

Break free from the cage!

"I'm afraid it will be very difficult," Jiang Ping pondered.

He had thought about this problem before.

However, even when he used his Void Divine Intent to cross the Yin Yang Millstone before, he was still affected. Now, if he wants to use this method to leave Xuanxin Island, it probably won't be smooth sailing.

"Give it a try. Just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you can't in the future."

Jiang Saint smiled broadly, clearly interested.

If the Great Dao were not obscure and its Dao Rhythm insufficient, he would not have needed Jiang Ping to attain sainthood; he would have killed Shang Mingyuan long ago.

The other party was simply a hundred years older than him, and his strength was honed over time.

"Can."

Jiang Ping finally nodded. He also wanted to try and see if he could leave the island in an alternative way to solve the problems for his seniors.

Three days later.

Jiang Ping and the other saints headed north towards the northernmost part of Xuanxin Island.
