As night deepened, a ray of mysterious light dispelled the darkness, making the entire giant mountain shimmer with light.
Jiang Ping stood suspended in mid-air, surrounded by Chaos Aura, his figure ethereal and graceful, like a god.
Not far in front of him, a young man coughed up blood, the hole in his chest had not healed for a long time, his whole body was cracked, and his injuries were getting worse.
The howling wind disturbed everyone's peace of mind.
People stared at the scene before them, at that towering figure, and fell silent.
They were still processing what had just happened and found it unbelievable.
Long Ye, Child of Destiny, is usually aloof and unapproachable. His strength is top-notch among his Peers, and he has few rivals in the Same Realm.
Now he was bleeding profusely, his body swaying precariously.
Someone frowned, deep in thought.
So far, two of Jiang Ping's Fate Child have been defeated, and both met tragic ends. One was nearly knocked down from his cultivation level, and the other was seriously injured in just one exchange.
"Which realm is he in exactly?"
A monstrous genius couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
The group came to their senses, and then, upon closer reflection, felt a chill run down their spines, becoming increasingly terrified with each thought.
Whether it's Zuo Cheng, the two Female Monarch, or even the current Fate Child Long Ye.
None of these Mid-Rank Dao Monarch could withstand a single blow from Jiang Ping; this strength made their scalps tingle.
It's like...
"Yu Changqing the second?"
Many people stared wide-eyed and gasped for breath.
They seemed to see the shadow of that Chaos Dao Monarch in this person.
"Don't tell me Jiang Ping is already Dao Monarch..."
A Female Monarch murmured, then her beautiful eyes widened, stunned by her own words.
She didn't want to think about it that way; it was too... far-fetched.
"Is he really Dao Monarch?!"
Long Zhan, standing to the side, was deeply shocked, his lips twitching slightly.
He has always been cautious and has always overestimated his opponents.
For example, when facing the Chaos Body in front of him, he showed concern before coming, fearing that he might fail and be unable to defeat it.
However, at this moment, Long Zhan realized that he had greatly underestimated Jiang Ping.
The four Mid-Rank Dao Monarch were defeated so decisively, without even the ability to retaliate; it was no longer a question of whether they could contend with each other.
This is practically blasting fish! Jiang Ping, like a high-level cultivator, is attacking downwards with overwhelming force, instantly killing everyone.
And the frying of fish continues.
The cold wind was biting, Qi Tian, another Fate Child this fate, broke out in a cold sweat. He had considered many possibilities, but he never expected things to turn out like this.
Jiang Ping raised his eyes and looked at Qi Tian: "Am I guilty?"
The latter kept his head down and remained silent.
Having learned from Long Ye's experience, he resolved that he would never speak unless the other party named him.
With a bang, Qi Tian was caught off guard. His body was pierced by the mysterious light, leaving only his head groaning in agony in the Void.
Jiang Ping sneered, "Are you deaf when I ask you a question?"
Everyone: "..."
The world fell silent; they were speechless and trembling.
Just as Long Ye was about to answer, he was severely injured by this lightning-fast attack.
Even if Qi Tian chooses to remain silent, he will still be beheaded.
Whether you say it or not, the outcome is the same.
Call out!
Seeing that the situation was not good, some people immediately chose to flee.
Looking over, Long Zhan saw the Five Elements Dao Monarch, who had been patrolling the Medicine Garden with him. The one who had been shouting and threatening to kill earlier was the most aggressive.
"Ah..."
A piercing scream suddenly echoed in the distance, and blood once again stained the sky red.
Jiang Ping dusted off his clothes and said, "I didn't give any instructions. You try walking away and see what happens."
Although none of the remaining people were on the list, Lin Zhizhen took the initiative to tell him that several people had repeatedly ridiculed Heavenly Maiden behind her back and even spread rumors.
Jiang Ping immediately pressed forward; those were three Female Monarch, and their faces suggested a sinister nature.
Boom!
Chaos Aura spread, and everything exploded.
The three women immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Please forgive me, Dao Monarch."
"I was wrong."
Bang! Bang!
Three Flowers bright Blood Blossom bloomed, and everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Even their own Female Monarch Lingxi showed fear; this woman was too domineering. She would set off fireworks for the Heavenly Maiden at the slightest provocation—who could stand that?
Zhong Shenxiu raised her eyes and smiled faintly.
The buzzing sound became louder.
Long Ye's chest wound had healed, making him the least injured of the five Dao Monarch.
The next moment, the sound of an explosion boomed in his ears, his face contorted in a grimace, and he was completely torn apart.
Jiang Ping squinted at him. "Who gave you permission to recover?"
In an instant, the True Spirits that had gathered high in the sky dispersed somewhat.
Qi Tian's head ceased its struggle and hung itself from a southeast branch.
Long Zhan kept his head down the whole time, and even though his younger brother had been seriously injured twice, he dared not show the slightest emotion.
Da da da.
Jiang Ping strode through the Void, and the surrounding Monarch dared not even breathe loudly, bowing their heads.
This scene was exceptionally awe-inspiring; he was like an emperor descending to earth, surveying his royal domain, with all the Dao Monarch bowing their heads.
"Shenxiu, I'm here to help you!"
Just then, a graceful figure arrived, unleashing a terrifying Dao Light that suppressed the Long Zhan lineage.
Lin Zhizhen looked over, then frowned.
The person who arrived was none other than Lin Yun, the Female Monarch- in-waiting she had most longed for, the Fate Child of the Initial Lands, a woman of noble status.
Jiang Ping turned around, his expression calm.
However, Lin Yun sensed a chill beneath those clear eyes, and she immediately stopped, her face stiffening.
Lingxi sneered, "You've been watching the show from the sidelines all along, haven't you? Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"
It's nothing more than wanting to win over and befriend Jiang Ping, who seems to be Chaos Dao Monarch.
"Shenxiu, are you alright?"
Lin Yun called out to the Heavenly Maiden.
Zhong Shenxiu did not turn around, but only looked at Jiang Ping.
Lin Zhizhen noticed a hint of disappointment in her young mistress's eyes.
Speaking of which, Lin Yun was the only one in the Initial Land who was willing to Fate Child the Heavenly Maiden.
At the time, she thought it was two stunning women attracted to each other.
At present, it all seems to be a calculation of interests. The Heavenly Maiden brewed many Dao Wine for Lin Yun with her unique brewing techniques, but when the two Fate Child attacked, she chose to stand by and watch.
Seeing that Zhong Shenxiu, who used to be at her beck and call, was no longer paying attention to her, Lin Yun's expression was somewhat complicated, and her thoughts were in turmoil.
The conflict finally came to an end.
Jiang Ping did not go on a killing spree; punishing a few key figures was enough.
However, these people must repair the magic Magic Array for the Heavenly Maiden and compensate for the damaged flowers and plants before they can leave.
The Heavenly Maiden smiled and invited Jiang Ping to come into the mountain for another chat, as they hadn't finished their wine yet.
The Female Monarch Lingxi was not invited, but she shamelessly followed behind.
"The world has changed!"
In the distant sky, several figures stood.
The incident happened suddenly, and there were few bystanders.
However, most of the people who had heard the news came.
For example, Xu Yuan and Zhou Huang, Fate Child, as well as Jiang Youwei from the Flying Immortal Sacred Land and Ling Qinghe from the Kaiyang Sacred Land, are all Fate Child.
They remained silent, the atmosphere heavy.
"He actually has such strength!"
Zhou Huang was somewhat lost in thought, recalling the scene of her being injured several days ago.
Looking back now, Jiang Ping was very restrained; he was extremely lenient.
Ling Qinghe remained silent, her heart churning with turmoil.
She was evenly matched with Qi Tian, but the latter couldn't withstand Jiang Ping's sword strike, which speaks volumes about the man's strength.
The image of Lei Fang introducing Jiang Ping to her flashed through her mind.
If she had humbled herself and engaged in philosophical discussions at that time, could her faction have secured more benefits in the Initial Land?
"Everyone says he's arrogant and domineering, acting recklessly and offending all sorts of heroes along the way. Now I think he has the right to be so. If I had his power, I'd be even more outrageous."
A woman with delicate features sighed.
After this battle, who in Initial Land would dare to underestimate Jiang Ping?
Xu Yuan suddenly looked up, but the figure in his eyes had disappeared. He said in a deep voice:
"Did you see clearly whether that person truly stood in the Supreme Domain?"
Jiang Youwei said, "It's impossible to be sure. Chaos Body is different from an ordinary person. A True Saint has the aura of Dao Monarch, but based on the strength he has shown, he is probably at this level."
The group remained silent, unwilling to delve deeper into the matter, yet the truth seemed undeniable.
"If he were a Dao Monarch, he would be far more terrifying than Yu Changqing."
The only Dao Monarch at the sixth level in the arena spoke in a solemn voice.
Since there is already Yu Changqing in Initial Land, the emergence of another Jiang Ping will inevitably affect the overall situation in Initial Land, and their interests will definitely be affected.
Heavenly Maiden's Dao Ground.
Female Monarch Lingxi was completely drunk; she had never felt more exhilarated than today.
Like Zhong Shenxiu, she is also a reincarnation. As a result, her True Spirit is damaged, and the possibility of her recovering to her Peak today is reduced. Many people are not optimistic about her, and she is a marginal figure in the core area.
But today, she witnessed yet another Chaos Dao Monarch emerge from nowhere, suppressing enemies from all directions with a flick of his finger.
The scenes that had just unfolded were still vivid in her mind, deeply etched in her memory, and would likely remain unforgettable for the rest of her life.
The crucial point is that this Chaos Dao Monarch is currently clinking glasses with him.
Thinking of this, Lingxi's eyes reddened. "Those bitter days are finally over. The Yin and Yang Vine, the Chaos Root, and the Fruit of Life-Death should all belong to me."
Zhong Shenxiu rolled his eyes several times, thinking, "She really dares to say that."
Lin Zhizhen, who was helping to pour the wine, nodded in agreement.
With Jiang Ping by her side, who would dare to bully her Heavenly Maiden from now on?
Zhong Shenxiu turned around, looked down at the foot of the mountain, and frowned slightly.
Lingxi glanced at her and chuckled, "She hasn't left yet. A Fate Child, she's always been high and mighty, bossing us around. Why is she acting so humble today?"
"With the Chaos Dao Monarch in person, the prestige of this appointment is beyond doubt."
Lin Zhizhen said.
Sulfuric acid!
A beam of mysterious light burst forth, tearing open the Sky Curtain, as if the dome were about to collapse.
Lin Yun's face turned pale instantly, and she immediately slunk away without daring to look back.
The banquet didn't end until late into the night.
Lingxi, looking quite drunk, wanted to stay the night, but was slapped out of the mountain by the Heavenly Maiden.
Lin Zhizhen withdrew and closed the door.
Inside the room, Zhong Shenxiu and Jiang Ping sat facing each other.
The Heavenly Maiden's cheeks flushed slightly, as if she were intoxicated. She suddenly moved closer to Jiang Ping, her eyes somewhat unfocused.
Their faces were inches apart, and her long black hair fell onto Jiang Ping's arm.
She exhaled, the scent of alcohol wafting across her face, mingling with a refreshing, subtle fragrance, and Jiang Ping felt a smooth sensation on his fingertips.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Ping was about to speak when Zhong Shenxiu instantly moved away, raising her snow-white chin and laughing:
"You don't really intend to spend the night here, do you?"
Jiang Ping shook his head slightly, took out a book, and placed it on the table:
"Please take a look, senior. If you have ambitions, it's worth a try."
Zhong Shenxiu was puzzled; were there scriptures in the world that she hadn't seen before?
She picked up the book and raised an eyebrow:
"The Time Sword Scripture"?
A moment later, Zhong Shenxiu was astonished. This Daoist technique combined the "Time Scripture" and the "Years Sword Scripture," making it a complete General Outline the laws of time.
She was awestruck by the young man's masterpiece, but also somewhat puzzled.
The two major time branches Xuanhuang Cauldron, and are also notoriously difficult to master. Why would the other party want her to study them as well?
A short while later, the Heavenly Maiden closed the book and took a deep breath.
"Reverse Effect into Cause!!"
"Yes, that's the core of this method."
Jiang Ping nodded.
Zhong Shenxiu's talent is not weak; he is an absolute monster-level genius. If he can cultivate the Dao-Self Body, let alone High-Rank Dao Monarch, he may even have a chance to become Dao Ancestor.
Seeing her remain silent for a long time, he couldn't help but say, "Do you have any ideas? Dao Ancestor Realm isn't impossible."
Zhong Shenxiu looked up, hugged the book tightly, and nodded:
I want to give it a try.
The Ancestral Realm is too far away, but if it truly reflects my Dao Self Body, even if my True Spirit Flawed, High-Rank Dao Monarch can cross over it.
"Um."
Jiang Ping didn't say much. Having lived through two lifetimes, the Heavenly Maiden certainly wouldn't get stuck on a rut.
The Heavenly Maiden opened the book again and began to study it meticulously from the beginning.
He didn't disturb them and walked out of the house.
Lin Zhizhen, who had been waiting outside the door, felt a little disappointed. The Heavenly Maiden was too self-possessed. If it were her, she would have already clung to her coattails.
Call out!
Jiang Ping left and embarked on his journey home.
As they headed outwards, no one dared to block their way.
Although there were few people at the time, after a night of fermentation, the news had spread, and no one dared to stand in his way.
Soon after, he returned to Azure Peace Peak, where the group of seven was already waiting at the foot of the mountain. Their eyes lit up instantly when they saw him.
Li Li approached, holding an umbrella, staring intently at Jiang Ping, and asked directly:
"Have you truly established yourself in the Dao Monarch realm?"
The other six people also turned their gazes toward them, none of them daring to blink.
Jiang Ping smiled and nodded slightly.
"Hiss~"
Breathing sounds rose and fell, not only from the seven people in front of them, but also from various directions in the distance.
Fang Xin looked back and realized that there were already many people lying in wait near Azure Peace Peak, obviously trying to find out something.
Now that Jiang Ping has personally admitted it, everyone is getting restless.
"He's really at the Monarch Realm!"
Wang Ping was lost in thought, a storm brewing in his heart, and he could no longer suppress his turbulent emotions.
Zhu Xuan's fingertips dug into his flesh, unsure whether he resented Jiang Ping's strength or his own failure to seize the opportunity.
Xu Haoran was stunned for a long time, feeling that the revenge for his brother and friend was a distant prospect.
Xie Wen squinted. "It seems only High-Rank Dao Monarch can suppress him."
"Hmm, I heard that the one in the core area was trying to break through a barrier a few days ago. I wonder if he succeeded."
Humanity is a virtue.
The Initial Land is the Initial Land of all people under heaven, and it cannot be controlled entirely by two Chaos Dao Monarch.
"I've received word that several Dao Monarch at the sixth level in the core area have begun their seclusion."
Xu Qing, from the Xu Imperial Dynasty.
With just Yu Changqing, the various factions could still contend with him by joining forces, but if Jiang Ping were to emerge, no one would be willing to accept it.
If Mid-Rank Dao Monarch isn't enough, then High Rank will do.
The Initial Land has no shortage of resources, and with the potential of those Fate Child, breaking through levels one after another is not difficult.
Yu Mountain.
Yu Xi gazed in the direction of Azure Peace Peak, remaining motionless.
Unlike others who needed Jiang Ping to confirm it personally, she went to see her brother immediately after learning about what happened last night.
Jiang Ping being at the True Saint stage has become a low-probability event, making him undoubtedly Dao Monarch.
Only Chaos Dao Monarch possesses such grandeur, suppressing Mid-Rank Dao Monarch as easily as killing a chicken.
He attained enlightenment more than fifty years earlier than his elder brother.
Yu Xi murmured, unwilling to believe it.
She had previously considered fighting Jiang Ping several times, but now she had given up on that idea. To actually fight him would only bring her humiliation.
Yu Xi suddenly turned her head and looked at the Black Sword beside her:
"Ancestor, didn't you see this person's true potential back then?"
If I had known Jiang Ping possessed such talent, I should have tried to cultivate a closer relationship with him.
The two sides already have a history, and if they become friends, they will inevitably be the closest allies, and could even stand by her brother's side, forming a chaotic Twin Stars.
The Black Sword unleashed a stunning rain of light, influencing a region of space Time and Space.
It remained silent for a long time, deathly still.
