Chapter 55: Martial Dao Blood Garment — Two Destinies Who Cherish Each Other!

~7 min read 1,376 words

As the crowd's cheers rang out, Jiang Daoxuan looked toward Jiang Yan, casually pulling out a Marrow Cleansing Pill and handing it over: "Take it."

Staring at the scene, Jiang Yan was somewhat bewildered, but thinking that the Clan Leader my lord would not harm him, he immediately reached out to take it, then swallowed it in one gulp.

In an instant, his lower abdomen grew warm, and the medicinal power transformed into streams of warmth that swept through his entire body, greatly easing the feeling of weakness throughout him.

Feeling the marvel within his body, Jiang Yan hurriedly expressed his thanks: "Thank the Clan Leader my lord for this gracious gift!"

Jiang Daoxuan nodded, then took out copies of the Pure Yang Art and the Great Sun Body Tempering Art and handed them over: "Regarding your situation, I've already learned of it from your grandfather. It's just that my Jiang family has never had a fallen genius! Take these two arts and cultivate them well. In the future, it may not be impossible to rise again....."

Listening to Jiang Daoxuan's comfort, Jiang Yan neither agreed nor disagreed, smiling helplessly.

Of course he knew exactly what his own body was like.

If nothing unexpected happened, he had no hope of ever stepping onto the path of cultivation in this life, and could only resign himself to being an ordinary person.

Although he thought this way, so as not to waste the Clan Leader my lord's kind intentions, Jiang Yan still accepted the two arts: "Thank the Clan Leader my lord for bestowing these arts!"

Gripping the two arts tightly in his hands, he did not intend to read through them immediately, only planning to look at them when he had time.

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations to the host on obtaining ten jin of Divine Liquid】

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations to the host on obtaining a Heaven-grade supreme magic treasure: Martial Dao Blood Garment】

【Martial Dao Blood Garment: Transformed from a single drop of blood of a certain mysterious existence, it can stretch and shrink freely, attach itself to the skin of the entire body, conceal one's appearance, and comes with the abilities to enhance a portion of physical strength and automatically repair the wearer's injuries. Depending on the realm gap, it can offset a portion of attack damage from cultivators at the Heavenly Being realm and below, and can withstand a full-power strike from a Sage realm cultivator!】

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations to the host on obtaining a Heaven-grade strange fire: Cangyan Spiritual Fire】

【Cangyan Spiritual Fire: Can transform the owner's constitution, making them a Cangyan Treasure Body, with recovery ability far surpassing ordinary people, possessing various mysteries】

Looking at the rewards above, Jiang Daoxuan's eyes lit up.

Setting aside the preciousness of the two Heaven-grade supreme treasures, the value of this Divine Liquid alone was extremely precious, being something countless cultivators dreamed of!

Divine Liquid was the currency of trade among high-level cultivators, containing extremely pure essence of heaven and earth. Once absorbed, the benefits to a cultivator were boundless.

By market price, one jin of Divine Liquid was enough to exchange for a thousand top-grade spirit stones!

Yet even with such a terrifying ratio, it was still priced but unavailable on the market!

One could imagine just how great the value of the ten jin of Divine Liquid he had obtained truly was.

Once converted into spirit stones, it would be a thousand top-grade spirit stones, that is, ten million low-grade spirit stones!

Just what kind of terrifying number was this?

Probably even buying out the entire Tiandou Prefecture would be no difficult matter.

After his shock, Jiang Daoxuan quickly came back to his senses.

Then he raised his head, faced the crowd, and began issuing orders, telling all the Jiang clan members to start packing their belongings and prepare to follow him to Wudan City.

Under Jiang Daoxuan's command.

In an instant, the entire Jiang clan was in an uproar, bustling with activity!

Watching the clan members constantly passing before him, each one caught up in their busyness, Jiang Yan was somewhat dazed.

Jiang Chen noticed this scene and immediately hugged his treasured sword as he walked over.

Arriving beside Jiang Yan, he suddenly spoke: "Still thinking about something?"

His thoughts interrupted, Jiang Yan instinctively raised his head and glanced toward the source of the voice.

Upon noticing that the one who came was Jiang Chen, he hurriedly cupped his hands in salute: "Jiang Yan greets Clan Brother Jiang Chen."

"We're all family, no need for such courtesy. But what are you troubled about now?"

"I....."

Jiang Yan's expression dimmed as he silently lowered his head.

Facing Jiang Chen, this family genius, a strong sense of inferiority suddenly arose deep within his heart.

He hated why the heavens had opened a window for him, only to then close and lock it shut!

He could have endured an ordinary life, so why must they first let him experience a script that belonged to a genius?

The gap within, only he himself could know, far beyond what ordinary people could understand.

Looking at Jiang Yan's dispirited appearance, Jiang Chen could not help but think of himself. Before meeting the Clan Leader my lord, when had he not been the same?

It's just that only after one has been rained on oneself will one think to hold an umbrella for others.

To help this clan brother regain his fighting spirit and confidence, Jiang Chen slowly extended his palm and lightly patted Jiang Yan's shoulder.

When Jiang Yan raised his head again and looked over, Jiang Chen smiled warmly: "On the road rushing to Xuancheng, I heard your grandfather mention your situation, so I understand your feelings now. However, the Clan Leader my lord once said that as long as the burning heart within is not extinguished, one can turn the worst into the best. Even breaking before establishing is not impossible....."

"Looking at that look in your eyes, I can tell you still don't quite believe it, and even feel that I'm fooling you? Hahaha, don't look at me with such a strange gaze. Let me tell you a secret that isn't quite a secret. Back then, my situation was far worse than yours. At that time, my dantian wasn't just crippled, I was also expelled from Qianshan Sect. Yes, you heard right, the same sect as Kou Qing and Tantai Yu'er."

"But Clan Brother, you now?"

Jiang Yan was completely stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

If Jiang Chen's dantian had been crippled, then how had he cultivated his current cultivation base?

He had never heard of anyone being able to continue cultivating after their dantian shattered.

Jiang Chen smiled: "It's still what I just said, four words: break before establishing!

"Precisely because a miracle happened to me, I am firm in my belief. I believe that as long as you don't give up on yourself, you too will be able to turn your luck around and wait for a miracle to happen!"

"Borrowing words the Clan Leader my lord once told me, I now pass these words on to you."

"What truly defeats you is never others' criticism and mockery, but your own denial of yourself!"

As the last words fell, it was like a beam of warm sunlight shining into the depths of Jiang Yan's heart, dispelling all the gloom!

Jiang Chen's words kept echoing in his mind, and the light in Jiang Yan's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

He had originally thought this clan brother was the family's dazzling pride of heaven, which was why he felt inferior and found it hard to face him.

He never expected that the other had actually encountered such a calamity. No wonder he was full of resentment toward Qianshan Sect and showed no mercy at all toward Kou Qing.

At the same time, Jiang Yan gradually empathized, and quietly accepted this genius clan brother in his heart.

Even with his dantian shattered, Clan Brother Jiang Chen did not give up, and thus waited for his own miracle, managing to step back onto the path of cultivation!

Then what about me? My dantian is still completely intact, so what reason do I have to give up?!
