"There are quite a few Mid-Rank Dao Monarch in the Initial Land?"

Fang Xin inquired.

She had met Zhong Shenxiu and they had discussed the Dao together. That Heavenly Maiden was highly gifted and her comprehension surpassed ordinary understanding. In addition, she was a reincarnated being, so it was only natural that she could stand at this level in a short time.

However, judging from Lei Fang's words, most of the Mid-Rank Dao Monarch are heroes of their time.

Daozhen Fairy picked up the conversation, saying, "It's said there are quite a few, and all of them attained enlightenment in the last few decades."

Only three Dao Monarch have appeared in the Xuanhuang Hall on the surface, but in reality, quite a few people have also broken through during this period, though they keep it a secret.

There are even more in the Xuanhuang First Land; since accepting geniuses into it, Mid-Rank Dao Monarch have appeared.

"To advance so quickly at the Dao Monarch level, the Initial Land is even more desirable than imagined."

Xiao Ran's eyes held a hint of longing.

"That's not entirely true. Of the first group of geniuses to set foot in the Xuanhuang First Land, only a few broke through to the Mid-Rank Dao Monarch; the majority remained at the initial level."

Lei Fang shook his head.

Although he had never set foot in the Initial Land, he was born in the holy land and was Super Genius who knew a lot of inside information.

Those who can reach the Mid-Rank Dao Monarch in such a short time are nothing short of monsters.

Many people say that Jiang Ping's talent is as high as a mountain in the world, unattainable by most, and comparable to the Great Saint sites.

However, in the eyes of some old monsters in the Divine Continent, there are still some people whose true talent Peerless, even more so than Ren Ran and Xu Qing.

Like Yu Xi, who is hailed as the second "Years Monarch," she is merely at the threshold of that circle.

"Could there really be such a prodigy hidden in this world?"

Xiao Ran was shocked. In his eyes, Yu Xi and Jiang Ping already possessed the potential of Dao Ancestors, but Xuanhuang still harbored beings with even greater potential?

"Um."

Another female prodigy from Kaiyang nodded and said, "Our Kaiyang Sacred Land has such a person. She was one of the first to be selected to enter the Initial Land, and now she is Mid-Rank Dao Monarch, yet she is just over a hundred years old."

"My elders once said that such a being would be incredibly dazzling even if placed in the entire Starry Sky; it is truly Child of Destiny, born to face calamity."

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

Mid-Rank Dao Monarch who's just over a hundred years old is truly astonishing; just how terrifying must his potential be?

"Child of Destiny, born to face calamity, and there are more than just two or three of them?"

Fang Xin felt a chill run down her spine.

What kind of creatures are they, living to be over a hundred years old yet achieving this? Just hearing about it sends chills down your spine.

She finally understood why Zhong Shenxiu was being targeted; in the eyes of these terrifying beings, a reincarnated person was indeed not worth their attention.

"Normally speaking, such a being with limitless potential is extremely rare, appearing only once in a thousand years."

Lei Fang explained, "Based on the fragments revealed by my Kaiyang Ancestral Artifact, this is the final gamble of the entire Xuanhuang Will, a desperate struggle against the utmost of the entire world."

"If we cannot win in the future and cannot exterminate the alien races, even if we only barely manage to withstand the calamity as before, Xuanhuang will surely perish."

It can be said that Xuanhuang is gambling with the fate of the entire world.

If they succeed, Xuanhuang will never have another bloody battle; if they fail, even if it's just a draw, Xuanhuang will have no future.

At that time, even without the intervention of the alien races, Xuanhuang itself will encounter problems.

The sudden emergence of numerous geniuses with boundless potential has created an unprecedented Golden Great Era, a spectacle unlikely to be repeated in later generations. It may even Earth-Severing Heaven-Penetration, ushering in the Age of Doomsday.

Jiang Ping was puzzled. In the past, they had encountered many attacks from extraterrestrial beings and had always managed to repel them. Why was he determined to fight to the death this time?

"I'm not entirely sure about that either."

Lei Fang his head. This involved the Xuanhuang's top secrets, and perhaps only those chosen ones, seen as the hope of Child of Destiny, knew about it.

Then, he privately reminded Jiang Ping that the Ziwei Sacred Land was the most illustrious place in the world and also had such a monster with great potential. It was said that he had been by the side of the Ancestral Artifact since he was very young, and now he was definitely a member of the Mid-Rank Dao Monarch, and might even be close to the High Rank realm.

"Your Qingling Ancestral Artifact disappeared into the annals of history, most likely shattered completely. In the future, when you encounter geniuses from holy lands, it would be best if you could avoid drawing blood."

Lei Fang already knew this man's temperament well; he was ruthless and decisive. He was afraid that this man would clash with some holy land again, causing Blood Case.

In response, Jiang Ping stated, "I have always kept a low profile and have never actively sought trouble."

Lei Fang noncommittal, but hoped so; he genuinely wanted to witness the magnificence of the first Chaos Dao Monarch.

Thinking of this, he suddenly said, "I, Lei, have come to visit Brother Jiang to exchange some pointers."

There are only two Chaos Bodies in the world at present, Lei Fang naturally wants to discuss the Dao with his kind, as this may be of great enlightenment and help to him.

"Can."

Jiang Ping readily agreed and was about to warm up his muscles when Chen Qingyan suddenly said, "If you want to fight, go outside."

Lei Fang looked at the unique little courtyard in front of him and nodded. "We definitely need to find a spacious place."

The clash between two Chaos Body will surely be earth-shattering; the entire Qingdi Mountain may even collapse.

Jiang Ping replied, "There's no need for a big fuss; a little provocation will suffice."

However, despite saying that, he still decided to move to another place; his little courtyard couldn't withstand any more disturbances.

Right next to Qingdi City, there was a relatively spacious and secluded forest.

The Turtle Shell was summoned to set up Causality barrier for the two of them, mainly to prevent the barrier from being breached and affecting the surrounding creatures.

Lei Fang a burly man with well-defined muscles. He stood in the middle of the forest, where the surrounding vegetation was largely withered and yellow, and the once vibrant woodland had faded in the blink of an eye.

He is displaying his Chaos Body, which possesses the miraculous ability to devour all spirits, thereby absorbing the spiritual essence of all things to strengthen himself.

It is visible to the naked eye that the entire mountain range is withering and the greenery is disappearing.

"What a terrifying Chaos Body!"

Upon first seeing the Chaos Body, Xiao Ran Fang Xin, and the others felt their scalps tingle; the sheer power it exuded was enough to make them feel like they had thorns in their backs.

In their eyes, Lei Fang was like a bottomless Black Abyss, capable of swallowing everything, from which even light could not escape.

"Is my father this terrifying too?" Jiang Yirou shuddered. Uncle Lei was more frightening than Demon; he seemed born to destroy the world.

Thump!

At this moment, Lei Fang struck first, unleashing an Unrivaled Qi Mechanism that caused the Cause and Effect Field to boil, and the world to collapse in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, he emitted a black light, and the entire area gradually turned dark. Lei Fang Universe as nourishment for himself.

The Life-Death Sword that Jiang Yao carried was constantly ringing out, as it sensed a great threat.

It seemed to have grasped some of the essence: that person was no longer satisfied with devouring all spirits, but needed to devour Myriad Dao, and a Dao soldier like itself was a superior resource.

"Did the Lord also develop this kind of physique?" Chen Qingyan asked, her Jade hairpin trembling. If Jiang Ping was also like this, she was truly somewhat wary.

With a loud boom, the pitch-black heavens and earth suddenly burst forth with two streams of energy, and then the Universe was once again filled with vitality.

Jiang Ping was like the only light in the darkness. He exhaled black and white energy, and Chaos Profound Light surrounded him. With each step he took, the earth was renewed and turned green.

"Each is an extreme; one destroys everything, the other evolves everything."

The tortoise Turtle Shell that suppressed the region said casually.

With a bang, in the blink of an eye, Jiang Ping and Lei Fang fought hundreds of rounds.

He did not employ All Laws profound techniques, but fought solely based on the instincts of his Chaos Body. In Fang Xin Daozhen's eyes, the two appeared to be engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

However, the Dao soldiers were alarmed, as they all sensed an immense threat, Cause and Effect Fields were constantly boiling.

These Supreme Artifact secretly communicated and came to the conclusion that the Chaos Body's basic attack is its ultimate move, and even a casual strike can be described as earth-shattering.

With a bang, Jiang Ping threw a punch, and the surging airflow bombarded the ground.

Lei Fang the attack, and at the same time, his Chaos Body activated, unleashing its instinctive devouring power, as if to swallow the vast vitality within Jiang Ping's body.

However, he soon encountered an obstacle: an equally terrifying power awakened, and from the pitch-black domain, beams of Yin and Yang energy pierced the sky.

At first, the two were evenly matched, but soon Lei Fang was horrified. His Devouring Domain had a gap, and his fists were splattered with blood and he was injured.

With a whoosh, Lei Fang quickly retreated, stood to one side, and said strangely:

"I urge Brother Jiang to relinquish his Supernatural power of time; if it were Past Self returning to me, I, Lei, would be inferior."

The Years Sword Scripture is renowned throughout history; it is incredibly powerful. Its Dharma Body can continuously feed back to the physical body, a terrifying ability he has never explored before.

In a duel between masters, victory hinges on the smallest details; even if the opponent is only slightly stronger, the advantage can be continuously expanded.

Moreover, he hoped that this battle would be a clash of the purest Chaos Body, so that it could be both a friendly exchange and a source of inspiration.

Jiang Ping smiled and shook his head, "I did not use the Power of Time."

Upon hearing this, Lei Fang was visibly taken aback. He was clearly ahead of Jiang Ping in terms of progress in the Chaos Body, yet his strength was inferior?

He refused to accept defeat, swallowing Mountains and Rivers with his mouth, drawing all the spiritual energy from all directions into his body. Lei Fang swooped down, but he was quickly sent flying.

This scene made everyone's blood boil and they were in an uproar.

"We're both Chaos Bodies, but my dad is the strongest?!" Jiang Yirou exclaimed excitedly. She was right; her own father was the Child of Destiny.

Daozhen Li Li were also extremely shocked. They had originally favored their senior brother, but he had ended up losing.

In the arena, Jiang Ping inhaled and exhaled Chaos Aura, and behind him, all things and scenes unfolded. Then, he unleashed a destructive intent, and all things gradually perished. He said:

"Brother Lei, do you understand?"

Lei Fang responded, "It has two sides to the same coin; it has the power to evolve all things, and it can also destroy all things."

Then, he lost his composure.

Lei Fang originally thought that he and Jiang Ping were each at their extremes, and had gone to the extremes.

Only today did I realize that the other party not only integrates All Laws to create all things, but is also gradually pushing towards the annihilation of all things.

"Chaos is two sides of the same coin; that is the right path. Brother Lei has gone to extremes."

Jiang Ping spoke.

This exchange appeared to be a mutual exploration and competition between the two parties in order to improve.

Little did he know that Jiang Ping had forged the "Time Sword Scripture," Dao-Self Body in the future and had been guiding him down the most correct path.

For him, it was merely a comparison, offering no enlightenment whatsoever.

Dao Self Shang, he had long since clearly seen the path ahead in the chaos. He had also been gradually exploring and delving into Lei Fang's pursuit of the Devouring Dao Body, but he did not yet possess the ability to devour.

At this moment, the Turtle Shell above suddenly trembled.

It stared at the mysterious Dao-Self Body that no one had noticed, and a raging storm swept through my mind:

"Reverse Effect into Cause?!"

"Yes, you've already walked this path."

Lei Fang immediately relieved. He recalled that when Jiang Ping killed Li Buyu and Yao Jiuzhou, he used the ability to destroy all things. Otherwise, Li Buyu's Dao weapon would not have been mistaken for his.

In short, he went to extremes, aiming to devour everything, while Jiang Ping balanced the two, representing two sides of the same coin, making him even more profound and terrifying.

Lei Fang couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jiang, do you think I should also explore the ability to evolve the Myriad Dao, in order to pursue the balance of Yin and Yang?"

"Forehead..."

Jiang Ping paused slightly.

Pursuing both sides is certainly good, but it also depends on talent, and Lei Fang didn't Dao Self was giving feedback to myself.

"Since you've chosen this path, you might as well go all the way to the end. But I think you can..."

The scene shifted abruptly; the two Chaos Body withdrew their imposing presence, ceased their fighting, and stood together to discuss the path of devouring.

"My father didn't even learn the Devouring Dao, how come he seems to know more than Reber?"

Jiang Yirou looked at the scene before her and found it rather strange.

At this moment, Lei Fang was like a student seeking guidance, asking many questions that troubled him, and Jiang Ping was always ready to answer them, analyzing every problem in a logical and reasonable way.

"Truly an extraordinary person."

As Li Li approached, she sighed inwardly. If Jiang Ping hadn't been prevented from being taken to the Initial Land by the Ancestral Artifact, she would have thought he was also Child of Destiny.

Daozhen couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ping a few more times. Both were Chaos Bodies, but this one was even more terrifying. Senior Brother Lei Fang's three hundred years of accumulation was not as good as this young prodigy who was not even a hundred years old.

Jiang Yao came to his side, glanced at Li Li, then at the beautiful Daozhen, and tugged at Jiang Ping's arm:

"Father, Senior Cui Yue has sent word that a banquet has been prepared for everyone."

Lei Fang suddenly suggested a friendly sparring match, so none of us had a chance to drink to our hearts' content.

"Let's go have a drink," Tang Sheng said.

He felt extremely pleased. This attempt to ease tensions was absolutely the right thing to do. Jiang Ping was even slightly better than his senior brother, and this was without using the <Years Sword Scripture>. His true strength was unimaginable; he was truly invincible in the same field!

In the evening, Qingling hosted a special banquet, attended by all the most talented and extraordinary individuals.

The True Disciple Pei Kong walked in and was immediately stunned when he saw the multiple figures in the main seat.

A monster-level Daozhen fairy, Lei Fang, the first Chaos Body in the world.

Even Tang Sheng, who had once been vehemently opposed to Jiang Ping, was now incredibly obsequious, engaging in enthusiastic conversation with Jiang Ping's son, Jiang Hao, without a trace of the arrogance of a True Saint.

He could only be in a lower position; even Jiang Ping's underling, Ye Qingyun, was in a higher position than him.

Qingling little monster Shen Mingyue was flushed from drinking, and her senior brother Ji Wushuang couldn't stop her.

"This magnificent event should be held many more times in the future."

Elder Ming stood at a distance, not disturbing the young people's refined enjoyment, and secretly watched with a smug look.

"It's probably going to be difficult. In a few years, Jiang Ping and the others should reach the Initial Land."

Cui Yue said.

He learned the secrets of the Initial Land from Xiao Ran and knew very well that the ultimate destination of these peerless geniuses was the Xuanhuang First Land.

The banquet ended in a lively and harmonious atmosphere.

Daozhen, Li Li, and the others returned to the Divine Continent after visiting Qingling for several days, while Lei Fang stayed behind alone, constantly seeking advice from Jiang Ping.

Even Jiang Yirou was a little annoyed. She wanted Lao Deng to contribute some points, but the two elders were so engrossed in their conversation that they would chat for a long time, and she didn't want to disturb them.

Half a month later, a loud explosion startled Qingdi Mountain.

Jiang Ping rushed over upon hearing the commotion and witnessed a horrific scene.

Lei Fang covered in blood, and the Black Abyss he devoured spread out, becoming somewhat chaotic.

"Brother Lei has made progress!"

Jiang Ping instantly understood: Lei Fang's Chaos Body had increased its progress and exploded once.

Lei Fang sighed, "Constructing Chaos Body is too difficult. Sometimes I even feel that I might actually die because of it."

Jiang Ping remained silent. He had initially forged the rudimentary form of the Chaos Body, which had also exploded. He knew that this kind of physique was too heaven-defying, and forging it would inevitably be accompanied by danger.

Fortunately, the outcome was good; Lei Fang successfully pulled through and his strength increased significantly.

Then, Lei Fang stared intently at Jiang Ping with burning eyes, his intention to spar was obvious.

Judging solely from the Chaos Body itself, he felt that his current Combat strength surpassed Jiang Ping's from half a month ago, and he wanted to avenge his previous defeat.
