Chapter 937: The Northern Xuan Divine Scripture and the Northern Ming Sword Dao!

Then, the system interface before Jiang Daoxuan began to change.

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained a strand of Sword Emperor power.】

【Sword Emperor Power: Contains a strand of Sword Realm law left behind by a Sword Emperor. Can be cultivated and contemplated by a cultivator, or released to unleash a single Sword Emperor strike capable of severely wounding a Semi-Emperor. Once released, the Sword Emperor Power will dissipate on its own.】

Jiang Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction.

Originally, after reaching the Sword Saint realm, he had been troubled by how slow his progress was.

Yet now, sleep brought a pillow—just what he needed appeared.

The system was simply too considerate.

Jiang Daoxuan felt a pang of emotion, then lowered his gaze to the second reward.

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Emperor-grade supreme combat technique: The Northern Xuan Divine Scripture.】

In the previous timeline, Jiang Beixuan synthesized and fused thirty-three Emperor-grade martial arts to create this ultimate technique, encompassing all categories—fist techniques, palm techniques, finger techniques, leg techniques, footwork, and more—divided into thirty-three layers!

Once cultivated to the thirty-third layer, it can slay immortals!

Simultaneously, one's understanding of martial techniques will reach an extraordinarily powerful level!

With this mastery, one insight unlocks all methods!

One can easily learn all Emperor-grade martial techniques, and one's comprehension of Immortal-grade techniques will grow geometrically!

In battle, one can effortlessly discern the weaknesses within an opponent's martial techniques.

Gazing at the description of the Northern Xuan Divine Scripture, Jiang Daoxuan's eyes lit up.

Without exaggeration, this technique is the strongest martial art he has ever seen—without exception!

All these extraordinary traits fully deserve its title as the ultimate technique!

"Thirty-three layers total, with every three layers forming one section, totaling eleven sections."

"If I ever get the chance, I might discuss it with him and decide whether to teach it in sections to the clan members..."

Jiang Daoxuan's expression turned thoughtful.

Though he wished to divide and transmit the Northern Xuan Divine Scripture to his clan, he wished even more to respect his clan members' own wishes.

If Jiang Beixuan himself did not wish to reveal it, he would never force it.

It was so before, it is so now, and it will be so in the future.

Jiang Daoxuan shook his head and set the thoughts aside for now.

He then turned his gaze back to the system interface.

【Ding~ Investment successful. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Emperor-grade supreme sword scripture: The Northern Ming Sword Dao.】

In the previous timeline, Jiang Beiming created this ultimate sword scripture centered on five supreme sword intentions, containing fragments of the Dao principles of these five sword intentions, divided into five forms:

First Form—Yin-Yang Sword Intention (group defense)

Second Form—Dripping Blood Sword Intention (penetrating attack)

Third Form—Shadowless Sword Intention (elusive, agile attack)

Fourth Form—Heaven-Cracking Sword Intention (frontal crushing attack)

Fifth Form—Mind-Only Sword Intention (single-target defense)

Once all five forms are mastered and cultivated to the pinnacle, one can comprehend the path of fusion, merging the five into one, and slay immortals with a single sword strike!

Hm?

Jiang Daoxuan felt a sudden surprise.

He had never expected this sword scripture to contain cultivation methods for five supreme sword intentions.

In the world's understanding, mastering supreme sword intentions requires only one's own contemplation.

Yet this Northern Ming Sword Scripture contains the Dao fragments of five supreme sword intentions, allowing him to contemplate them directly.

"If merging five forms can slay immortals, what power would eight forms fused together possess?"

Jiang Daoxuan murmured.

If he successfully mastered the Northern Ming Sword Scripture,

he would possess eight supreme sword intentions: Yin-Yang, Dripping Blood, Shadowless, Heaven-Cracking, Mind-Only, Time, Space, and Killing.

A total of eight!

At that time, using the path of fusion, he could merge them all.

Concentrating eight supreme sword intentions into a single sword strike—how immense would its power become?

Thinking of this, Jiang Daoxuan could not help but feel immense anticipation.

Then, he set aside his thoughts and looked again at the three characters above: Jiang Beiming.

"To have created an Emperor-grade supreme sword scripture... it seems that in the previous timeline, he had already advanced far within the Sword Emperor realm..."

Jiang Daoxuan suddenly sighed.

Not long ago, he had used the Haotian Mirror to calculate the fate of the candidate for the Hidden Dragon Academy,

and since then, he had known that the man's destiny was full of change and extraordinarily remarkable.

Yet he still underestimated him.

"But once the academy is officially established, I can begin identifying the talents of these individuals early—there will be no shortage of the next generation..."

Thinking of the list he had compiled, Jiang Daoxuan couldn't help but smile.

This generation includes Jiang Chen, Jiang Han, Jiang Yan, Jiang Beixuan, Jiang Zhiwei... and others.

The next generation includes Jiang Hao, Jiang Qi, Jiang Lei, Jiang Beiming, Jiang Chungang... and others.

It is foreseeable that in the future, the Jiang clan will never lack geniuses or prodigies in any field.

All that remains for their peers is the distant, unreachable silhouette of one who has surged far ahead.

"For now, you simply need to grow well."

"Before my wings are fully grown and I can stand alone, all dangers shall be borne by me alone..."

Jiang Daoxuan slowly closed his eyes and sank once more into cultivation.

To provide all his clansmen with a carefree environment in which to grow.

He still needed to become stronger!

Strong enough to be invincible in this age, immortal and eternally free!

Several days later.

Yuehua Empire.

After this time had fermented.

The various details surrounding the downfall of the Heart Sword Sect and the Medicine King Valley gradually came to light before the world.

Wang Jizhou and Zhou Tianhan's actions were indeed detestable and contemptible.

Yet Jiang Daoxuan's strength as clan chief of the Cangwu Jiang clan inspired awe—and no small measure of dread!

He effortlessly slew Zhou Tianhan, who had reached the peak of the Heavenly Human realm, within a few strikes.

With such immense power, who in all of Yuehua could possibly balance this Jiang clan chief?

Had the era arrived, when the great sun blazes in the sky and all stars are hidden?!

Just as countless cultivators wore expressions of despair, feeling their future shrouded in darkness.

Within the Xuan Dan Sect, once one of the Four Top Alchemy Sects, now ranked among the Three Top Alchemy Sects.

The sect's grand hall.

Dozens of figures gathered here.

At their head stood a middle-aged man clad in a blue robe.

He was none other than the Xuan Dan Sect's ancestral elder, an Alchemy Master.

His name: Yunyangzi!

Beside him stood a young man in white robes, his expression complex.
