Chapter 520

Gasps rang out, confirming some people's suspicions.

Wang Yi? Isn't that a high cultivator of Star Wheel Realm ninth layer? How could he have perished here? Could there really have been a battle among several Star Wheel cultivators?

Yet, just as they believed this was the truth of the matter.

Another voice suddenly rang out, shattering this truth instantly: "Look quickly! That's Elder Yang of the Falling Sword Sect! I once had the fortune to glimpse his true visage—I'm certain it's him!"

At these words, everyone's pupils shrank sharply, struck with terror!

Elder Yang of the Falling Sword Sect—Yang Ying?

Even this legendary figure of Moon Wheel Realm eighth layer has perished here?

Damn it, what kind of terrifying battle occurred here?!

Could a Sun Wheel cultivator have intervened?!

At this moment, everyone realized the situation here was far more complex than they'd imagined.

In fact, it was even more severe!

Yet, what truly terrified them was still far from over!

Suddenly, a piercing, shrill cry rang out!

Everyone quickly turned their heads toward the source of the sound.

There, a female cultivator lay sprawled on the ground, pale-faced and trembling uncontrollably from fear.

Strange—how could she be frightened so badly? What had she seen?

Confused, everyone immediately followed the direction of her gaze.

There, lying motionless, was a blood-soaked upper torso.

The face was strangely familiar...

Just as some hadn't yet reacted, still silently guessing the identity.

A startled cry sounded from beside them: "Is that... Lord Mo?!"

These words struck like thunder!

With their companion's reminder, they quickly recalled the Lord of the Mountain Sea Mansion—Mo Wenfeng!

The moment they realized even the Lord, a Sun Wheel Realm cultivator, had perished here.

Everyone recoiled in terror, stumbling backward!

At this moment, everyone grasped the severity of the matter!

Remember, this was an imperial court official—the supreme ruler of an entire province!

Now, such a towering figure had died here, and in an utterly gruesome manner.

Imagine how furious the imperial court would be once it learned of this!

The last person who dared defy the imperial court and kill a local lord was the Heavenly Demon Cult's leader centuries ago!

Of course, his final fate was also extremely tragic.

Many speculated that the sects and clans had united to strike at the Heavenly Demon Cult and kill Jiang Mingsheng.

Behind the scenes, it was precisely because the imperial court had stoked the flames.

So, upon witnessing someone dare to do the same, all were utterly terrified, marveling at the audacity and utter foolishness of the perpetrator!

Soon after, those who realized the gravity of the situation fled the place, unwilling to wade into this murky water!

On the other side.

Cangwu Mountain.

Clan Grand Hall.

At this moment, Jiang Daoxuan sat cross-legged on the ground, eyes closed, inhaling and exhaling the surrounding heavenly and earthly spiritual energy!

Simultaneously, he used the Nüwa Visualization Map to enhance his soul strength and employed the Sword Saint's power to comprehend the Sword Dao.

Just as he remained immersed in cultivation, savoring the joy of his growing strength.

The system's cold voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

【Ding~ Detected that the clan's destined one, Jiang Han, has slain the rival destined one, Tang Shan】

【Hidden assassination mission completed. Reward being distributed...】

【Ding~ Congratulations! You have received: Clan Destiny*1500, Advanced Hundred Treasures Blind Box*1, Common Hundred Treasures Blind Box*3】

Oh?

Jiang Daoxuan halted his actions, opened his eyes, and a hint of surprise flashed across them.

He hadn't expected Jiang Han, who had been away for months, to suddenly bring him this surprise today.

Slaying a rival destined one? I wonder what big thing he's done lately.

Jiang Daoxuan chuckled softly, feeling a flicker of curiosity about Jiang Han's experiences.

Still, he wasn't in a hurry—after all, given Jiang Han's fate of turning misfortune into fortune, there was no need for anyone to worry.

Even if worry were warranted, it should be directed at those who stood against Jiang Han.

Jiang Daoxuan shook his head, casting aside these scattered thoughts.

He then shifted his gaze back to the rewards before him.

The Hundred Treasures Blind Boxes were valuable items—he hadn't drawn from one in a long time.

Jiang Daoxuan rubbed his hands together, preparing to open a common Beginner Hundred Treasures Blind Box first to prime his luck.

He immediately clicked open the first box.

A flash of bright light appeared.

A brilliant golden light materialized before his eyes!

【Congratulations! You have obtained a special physique: Jin Lingti!】

【Metal governs slaughter and warfare; it can condense metal-attribute spiritual energy, enhancing the power of slaughter and warfare. Once acquired by a sword cultivator, its might grows even greater!】

【Note: There is an extremely small chance of mutation, giving birth to Geng Metal Qi!】

Jin Lingti?

Jiang Daoxuan's gaze shifted slightly; he had not expected to draw a Lingti on his very first pull.

As for who should use this Lingti, he only deliberated briefly before forming a plan.

If it were merely an ordinary Jin Lingti, its might could only be considered average compared to the other Five Element Lingti.

But if a powerful sword cultivator were to wield the Jin Lingti, its might would be no less than that of the Lei Lingti!

Since only by having a sword cultivator wield it could its full power be unleashed,

then aside from Jiang Zhiwei, the one with the strongest sword Dao attainments on Cangwu Mountain—Gu Xingjian—became the best candidate!

More importantly, that Geng Metal Qi that could mutate out with an extremely small probability!

Geng Metal Qi, even more lethal in slaughter and warfare, even speaking purely of destructive power, would surpass the Wu Wangti that Zhao Hu carried!

As for the others, perhaps the chance of mutating into Geng Metal Qi was truly minuscule.

But Jiang Daoxuan had not forgotten the purple qi fortune that Gu Xingjian carried!

With purple qi fortune upon him, he could be said to be a hidden dragon in the abyss.

Now he needed only a touch of opportunity, and he could soar from the abyss, rising to the nine heavens!

"Gu Xingjian... lately he has indeed devoted himself wholeheartedly to the clan. This Jin Lingti, for him, is well deserved..."

Jiang Daoxuan nodded.

During these past days, he had already heard quite a few things about Gu Xingjian from the Grand Elder Jiang Hongguang.
