Chapter 385
The Northern Domain was bustling, still crowded with many people.
Many had not even entered the ruins yet.
For instance, Shi Yadie and the Little Green Bird had both withdrawn early.
This was thanks to the overbearing nature of the various Holy Lands, which had sealed off the good spots inside, while the ordinary areas outside had been explored countless times by countless people.
There was nothing of interest there, so many people had left, escaping a disaster.
Then there were those who had just arrived from other domains, not having caught the heat of the moment.
While still feeling lingering fear, they were also relieved, and incidentally, took some pleasure in others' misfortune.
Those who ran fast and were arrogant about their strength must have all perished inside.
Once the affair at the ruins ended, this place became lively with all sorts of news, gossip, and nonsense.
Jiang Nan had slaughtered the Feathered Holy Son, slaughtered Great Experts, and slaughtered Feathered experts who had Cut the Dao.
The Feathered Divine Dynasty issued a Heavenly Court Punishment Immortal Decree, ordering all cultivators in the universe to hunt him down, with bounties that even made Great Experts burn with desire.
Of course, some remained skeptical about whether they could actually collect them.
These Holy Lands were used to being tyrannical and overbearing; they could find any excuse to wipe you out, and if you died, you died in vain.
Or, after collecting the massive bounty, you might be killed the moment you stepped out of the city—who would know who did it? It might even be them internally.
The Feathered Divine Dynasty was the most overbearing and powerful among the human Holy Lands.
But regardless, those bounties were truly tempting.
If that didn't work, one could forgo the bounty and take the chance to join the Feathered Divine Dynasty as an inner disciple or even an elder, which would also be a meteoric rise.
"The Feathered Holy Son was a Half-Step Great Expert, right? That Xu Longyang seemed to say he was almost a Great Expert too."
"And he didn't lose even when fighting a Great Expert."
"What does that count for? Jiang Nan can already insta-kill Great Experts."
"That's a Great Expert..." They listened as if it were a heavenly book; wasn't he just a young talent not long ago?
And among the young talents, his realm was at the bottom.
How could he possibly take down a Great Expert?
"Great Expert" was just the surface meaning; it meant a super powerhouse, a hegemon-level existence of a domain.
"Forget the Great Expert, what's that next piece of news? He killed someone who Cut the Dao?"
"Someone who Cut the Dao is much stronger than a Great Expert, right? They are existences we usually never even see."
Usually, on the surface, the heads of various families were all Holy Lords and Great Experts.
They were all at the strength of the Immortal Platform's Second Secret Realm.
Those who had Cut the Dao had already transcended once and could charge toward even higher existences.
Their pursuits were also higher, reaching realms they couldn't understand.
They had no interest in mundane affairs and couldn't be bothered to pay much attention.
"Don't tell me the next news is that he killed a Divine King."
"Oh, inside the ruins, there seemed to be such a claim; some say he already killed one."
"But later, when the ruins had an incident, most people died inside. The few who didn't die also ran away injured; not many were left to confirm anything."
"What's a Divine King? I just heard something even more explosive, or perhaps more ridiculous: Jiang Nan became a Saint and killed a Half-Saint powerhouse of the Feathered Divine Dynasty carrying a great killing weapon beyond the heavens."
"Can you get any more ridiculous?"
"Don't tell me the next news is that he became an Emperor."
"Oh, and don't tell me he's actually like the Chaos Dragon Nest's Wan Longhuang, an Ancient Emperor Supreme who came out to pretend to be young and chase girls."
"Cough, cough, it's possible," someone laughed.
Talking nonsense—who couldn't do that?
"So, all those previous battle records—the Southern Ridge ruins, the Cang Kong Holy Land side—where Jiang Nan or An Daye killed Half-Step Great Experts, Great Experts... they were all true?"
"Definitely true."
"Before, everyone said they were fake."
"I just felt everything was true."
"What about the Wanfu Holy Land gambling stone workshop? That wouldn't be him too, would it?"
"That's stretching it a bit far. Back then he was only in the Four Extremes Second Secret Realm, and at that time, the Tiangang Holy Land's old Saint intervened."
"That old Saint—he was the one who lured him there, right?"
"The white-clad youth Xiao Yu is very arrogant; perhaps he tried to intercept and kill him, but given Jiang Nan's strength, he was definitely counter-killed, which then drew out an old Saint."
"Put that way, it really makes sense."
"I was wondering why that annoying, cocky white-clothed kid stopped showing up. So he died long ago."
"This news is quite satisfying." ===== CHAPTER 386 =====
