Main text Chapter 302: Chatting with Jian Zan Cang Sheng

"Jian Zan Cang Sheng, how come you're alone?" Xiao Feng saw the person coming and went to meet them.

He held a staff in his hand and was used to wearing an elemental shield, never letting his guard down.

But Jian Zan Cang Sheng did not draw a weapon, obviously not intending to fight.

"Tian Ge is offline." Jian Zan Cang Sheng replied.

The "Tian Ge" he mentioned refers to Invincible Under Heaven.

Xiao Feng showed surprise upon hearing that, "Offline? Did I break your mindset?"

"A little." Jian Zan Cang Sheng's expression was relatively calm; being easily killed by Xiao Feng before didn't seem to have affected him much mentally.

He said, "I heard they want to find trouble for you offline. Moreover, Tianxia Wushuang seems to have already looked for you before, but didn't succeed."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but frown.

Again?

How long has it been?

If it's offline time, it seems Tianxia Wushuang was taken away by him less than three hours ago?

The night hasn't even ended yet!

Why are you telling me this? And… judging by what you're saying, it seems you're not that close to them?" Xiao Feng asked.

Jian Zhan Cangsheng nodded, "I'm a professional esports player; I met Tian Ge at a competition. He's a nice guy and has helped me a lot, so this time I joined Under Heaven. But I'm ultimately an outsider, still distant from them. The club members are very close-knit; if Peerless Under Heaven runs into trouble on your side, you'd better brace yourself."

"Tsk, these people are really overbearing, causing trouble without reason and then acting like they're justified." Xiao Feng curled his lip, showing disdain.

He then asked, "Are you telling me this now to warn me to stay safe, or are you waiting for me to fall into danger so you can laugh at me?"

"Laugh at me? I'm not that bad……"

Jian Zhan Cangsheng gave a bitter smile and said helplessly, "I think your account is really good; it'd be a shame if something happened to it. This game has too few top players from the Dragon Nation; without you, just me and Shashen and a few others can't compete with the international server."

So he should be considered as giving a friendly reminder.

"Thanks then." Xiao Feng nodded, accepting the goodwill.

He then chuckled lightly, "You really are quite pathetic; when we first met, your posture was arrogant to the heavens!"

"Uh……"

Jian Zhan Cangsheng rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

He then explained, "Back then I thought your skills were trash and you only looked strong because of good luck. Later in the arena, I found your technique is actually pretty good, so I stopped looking down on you."

"And some things, I wasn't showing off back then; I was telling the truth."

"Oh? Which aspect are you referring to?" Xiao Feng asked curiously.

"Shouldn't you go offline first and set up safety measures? We can talk about this later." Jian Zhan Cangsheng didn't say it directly, but gave a reminder.

Xiao Feng shook his head, "I can't set up better defenses right now. Let's chat; I've been fighting for a while and am a bit tired, so it's a good chance to relax and rest."

Saying that, he sat down directly on the steps of the nearby council hall's entrance.

Jian Zhan Cangsheng followed over, leaned against the wall, and said, "Do you still remember the term I mentioned back then—Nine Provinces?"

"I remember. Nine Provinces Sword Immortal—a really cool profession; I once envied you greatly." Xiao Feng nodded.

Back then, that guy was really full of himself; if it weren't for his slightly lacking combat skills, he could have completely stolen the spotlight from Xiao Feng himself!

Xiao Feng has always remembered this; he won't forget it anytime soon.

Jian Zhan Cangsheng said, "Nine Provinces is the immortal realm in Myriad Heavens. When I first launched the server, I drew the Ancient Sword Immortal profession in a lottery and also learned a lot of information about the high-level worlds in Myriad Heavens. From that information you can see that the Nine Provinces world wields great influence in Myriad Heavens, being one of the strongest high-level worlds, far stronger than Yuan Su Shen Yu we are currently in."

"Even Yuan Su Shen Yu can't compare to Nine Provinces, let alone Zhu Shen Da Lu. Therefore I inherited the Nine Provinces Ancient Sword Immortal profession; from the start I had the growth data of a 7th‑reincarnation warrior, with higher blood‑attack than ordinary people, able to reduce damage by 99% against non‑divine units under level 300, while boosting damage tenfold."

"This is merely the effect of the Ancient Sword Immortal's enlightenment stage, not its final form. Once we enter the Myriad Heavens world, this profession's potential can truly be unleashed. By then, you might not even be a match for me."

Xiao Feng listened, falling into thought.

"Nine Provinces, Nine Provinces—an ancient name for the Dragon Nation, I don't know whether it's due to translation or cultural borrowing, but it appears in Myriad Heavens."

"The Nine Provinces world is stronger than Yuan Su Shen Yu; as a Dragon Nation player, he's quite satisfied with this setting."

"But the problem is, if such a world exists, why is the Blue Star war zone placed under Yuan Su Shen Yu?"

"Foreigners' names are super hard to remember, okay!"

"Just to remember NPC names, he's killed off plenty of brain cells!"

"Even if it's for the sake of those foreigners on Blue Star, they could be assigned to Yuan Su Shen Yu while the Dragon Nation goes to the Nine Provinces world, right?"

"Judging by the technical level of Myriad Heavens, it's totally doable!"

"This setting really leaves Xiao Feng baffled."

Moreover, getting back to the point, Jian Zhan Cangsheng

After saying all that, it seems his purpose was to tell him…… the Ancient Sword Immortal is very strong, stronger than Xiao Feng!

Is that what you mean?

Yeah! Definitely!

"After we reach level 255 and go check, we'll know. The Myriad Heavens world is vast, you can play for a long time. If I get the chance later, I'd also like to go see that Nine Provinces world."

Although Xiao Feng also thinks the Sword Immortal profession is pretty cool, he still feels his own talent is stronger.

Even if Jian Zhan Cangsheng's profession can still advance, he's confident he can keep winning!

However, some things need to be saved for later to be convincing.

Saying it now is just like when Jian Zhan Cangsheng spoke at our first meeting—purely showing off too much!

"Your level should be about there soon. I'm still a bit off—my level and willpower aren't keeping up; I need to keep training for a few months."

"Take it slow; my willpower is also far behind."

The two exchanged a few polite remarks, and then it seemed there was nothing left to talk about.

Xiao Feng finally asked, "Why don't you go out and kill people? With your profession's strength, not making the top three on the kill leaderboard is truly a waste."

Ancient Sword Immortal should be considerably stronger than a Necromancer; the Lord of Darkness's Divine Punishment Undead Summon has a long cooldown, so it can't be spammed, and ordinary undead skills are nowhere near as fast as a Sword Immortal's killing speed.

If one really goes all out, besides Xiao Feng, only a level 210 Mang Mei could possibly match Jian Zhan Cang Sheng.

But Jian Zhan Cang Sheng replied, "I'm acting together with the World Guild; they'll only make a move at the last moment, and I can't be bothered to grind. With this time, I might as well practice swordsmanship."

Having said that, he added, "I'm leaving; if you want to tear down the base, go ahead. They prepared a bunch of backup flags long ago, so they're not afraid of you targeting them."

Afterward, he took the Teleportation Array and left the base.

Xiao Feng stared at the empty Teleportation Array, remaining silent for a long time.

Looking at this situation, Invincible Under Heaven must know they can't do anything to me in the game, so they can't be bothered to oppose me, they'll temporarily hide, appear at the final moment, and launch a sneak attack on a main city.

If they've already prepared many flags, then this really wouldn't be easy to stop.

After all, Xiao Feng needs to take War City himself and also help Shen Di take Thunder City, so he simply can't free himself to do a third thing.

Moreover, speaking of which, if the world could take a main city, that would also be Longguo's glory; he has no reason to stop it.

Well, of course, the base still needs to be torn down!

With no one around, Xiao Feng also couldn't be bothered to unleash his big move.

Two fireballs detonated the World Guild's base headquarters, reducing the enemy's base level by one, thus ending this battle with no opponents.
