Chapter 317

Zhang Cang and the others stared at the scene before them.

They could not help but feel greatly shocked!

That overwhelming, suffocating, heaven-rising might.

Just a wisp of power leaking out was enough to make their very souls tremble!

They did not doubt it in the slightest.

That single sword-finger strike alone would be enough to bury every one of them right here, leaving not even their bones behind!

This was not false modesty on their part—it was a genuine, utter inability to resist, with no power to parry at all!

Then, the four Star Wheel cultivators all looked at one another and silently turned their gazes to Zhang Cang's back.

Originally, after listening to the other's account along the way,

they still had no rough impression of just how strong and terrifying the White-Robed Sword Marquis truly was.

But at this moment, that impression had become incomparably clear—and deeply etched!

They would likely never forget this utterly horrifying scene for the rest of their lives!

Then, the group could not help but sigh inwardly:

Alliance Leader Jiang possesses such terrifying strength, far beyond what the rumors suggest, and few people even know of it.

Once the day of the Alliance Grand Competition arrives,

once Alliance Leader Jiang so much as makes a slight move, Sima Nan is bound to feel utterly shocked and unable to sit still, isn't he?

Thinking of this, they could not help but begin to look forward to that day arriving sooner.

And at this moment, under the group's reverent gazes,

Jiang Daoxuan faced the mountain peak, his back to the crowd.

"From this day forth, this mountain shall be named: Big Dipper!"

"When the day of the Alliance Grand Competition arrives, may this mountain serve as the place of contest..."

Jiang Daoxuan said slowly.

In his heart, aside from serving as the venue for the Alliance Grand Competition, Big Dipper Mountain could also serve as the venue for the Seven Veins Grand Competition!

After all, during contests, it was inevitable that some damage would be done to the surrounding environment.

For Cangwu Mountain, this was a loss that could be avoided.

And the name Big Dipper—

perfectly matched the number of the Seven Stars, corresponding to the Seven Veins.

The Seven Veins gathered, a constellation blazing, each vying to outshine the rest!

On the other side.

As Jiang Daoxuan finished speaking,

the group hurriedly nodded and saluted, saying: "Alliance Leader Jiang, this is an excellent idea. It just so happens that the team building Cangwu City is right at the foot of the mountain. Our four houses wish to do some further repairs and improvements to this Big Dipper Mountain for you—what do you think?"

"After all, this place is far too desolate. By the time the Grand Competition begins and the great powers gather from all sides, I'm afraid the surroundings here would be a slight to your dignity..."

After personally witnessing the terrifying power Jiang Daoxuan possessed,

the group had been thoroughly won over by him!

They understood that their own houses had truly, solidly latched onto a thick, powerful leg.

Immediately, they began to kneel and lick, currying favor.

Face? Dignity?

Before absolute, overwhelming power, these were all nothing more than trivial matters of no consequence.

At this moment, faced with the group's proposal, Jiang Daoxuan did not refuse outright.

After all, it didn't require his clansmen to lift a finger—why refuse?

Of course, regarding such a matter, he felt no burden in his heart whatsoever; it was entirely a matter of clear conscience.

After all, the day the Alliance was established also meant the four houses had placed themselves on the fire to roast.

It was just that his current strength was sufficient.

At full power, he could even crush Sun Wheel cultivators, so he simply couldn't be bothered to care about such trifling matters.

Thus, he gave a slight nod and said casually: "Then I'll trouble you with it."

With those words,

the group hurriedly waved their hands: "No trouble at all, no trouble at all—these are all things we ought to do."

Jiang Daoxuan smiled and said no more: "For the specific matters concerning the Alliance, you may seek out the Grand Elder of my clan to discuss them. Should you encounter anything that cannot be decided, then come find me."

"We understand!"

the group immediately responded in unison.

His words, in fact, suited their wishes perfectly.

After all, staying around Alliance Leader Jiang, the pressure was simply too intense.

If it were someone else, the situation would undoubtedly be much better.

Then, Jiang Daoxuan no longer lingered and immediately set off to leave.

Compared to these trivial matters, he preferred to devote his time to cultivate.

He had never forgotten.

The current Jiang clan might appear brilliant and powerful,

but because its development had been too short, its clansmen had never truly grown up.

Not even a single Star Wheel realm clansman had been born.

Therefore, all of this was nothing more than a castle in the air, still inseparable from the support of his own strength.

If one's own strength is not strong enough.

Should they encounter a powerful enemy, the Jiang family's glory would only be fleeting, ultimately turning into dust of history!

Therefore, he cannot afford the slightest slackness, let alone grow complacent or arrogant!

Accompanied by Jiang Daoxuan's departure.

The crowd watched until his figure vanished completely.

They sensed that the terrifying pressure had finally dissipated.

Only then did they exhale in relief, feeling their bodies loosen.

They exchanged glances, still shaken: "Grandmaster Jiang truly possesses boundless strength—no one knows how he cultivated to this level at such a young age."

"That's right—don't laugh at me, but when I was his age, my cultivation base was only Purple Mansion Realm. Compared to him, I feel all these centuries of cultivation were wasted—wasted on dogs!"

"Sigh, I have to admit: sometimes the gap between people is even greater than the gap between a person and a chicken."

"His rise has been so swift—he emerged at the peak, his name resounding throughout Tiandou Prefecture. Such an unbelievable journey feels like listening to a legend..."
