the Spoils of War Gao Lu was scared witless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The primordial energy in Jing Yan was far more robust than his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Jing Yan’s energy was an angry sea, then his own energy was like a boat amidst that stormy ocean; the discrepancy between them was enormous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Lu, with a face full of shock, noticed that the energy he had released had also dissipated without him realizing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, only one thought was whirling in his mind: why is Jing Yan so strong?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His strength was overwhelming, crushing even; Gao Lu felt utterly devoid of any courage to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After glancing at Gao Lu, Jing Yan snorted softly and then turned his gaze toward the other battleground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three Golden-eyed Bears were still locked in combat with Lin Ru and her four companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Lin Ru, each of the other three had already sustained injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Dong and a skinny martial artist were teaming up to fight a Golden-eyed Bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bear had many wounds covering its body, but both Ye Dong and the skinny martial artist were also injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Ru, do you need my help?” Jing Yan asked Lin Ru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please help us!” Lin Ru’s voice came back quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been a few moments earlier that Lin Ru had thought of seeking Jing Yan’s help, but considering her previous attitude towards Jing Yan, she felt ashamed to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, the four of them were not in fatal danger at that point, so she hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Jing Yan’s question, Lin Ru couldn’t hold back any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright!” After responding, Jing Yan quickly dashed into the fray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Jing Yan’s involvement, the three Golden-eyed Bears were swiftly slaughtered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle concluded, leaving the massive bodies of four Golden-eyed Bears on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the first Golden-eyed Bear produced a Soul Crystal, the other three did not yield any.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan glanced at the bear corpses, already formulating a plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having obtained a Golden Pattern Soul Crystal himself, he figured he would let this set of bear bodies go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they were of immense value, they were not particularly significant to Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be generous to let Lin Ru’s team take them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought in mind, Jing Yan was about to speak up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Senior Tianshui’s voice resonated in Jing Yan’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Tianshui, what is it?” Jing Yan’s thoughts revolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t rush to give away the Golden-eyed Bears just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Check their bodies for any Divine Beast essence blood,” Tianshui instructed Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Pattern Spiritual Beasts were descendants of Divine Beasts, so it was possible for them to possess essence blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the probability was extremely low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s what Bai Xue had discovered after slaying a Golden Throne Guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had mentioned this to Jing Yan at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Tianshui’s suggestion, Jing Yan’s heart stirred slightly, then he frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Tianshui, to check for Divine Beast essence blood, do I need to bring back these Golden-eyed Bear corpses?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t that be a bit excessive?” Jing Yan asked with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just place your palm on the body of the Golden-eyed Bear and circulate the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there is any Divine Beast essence blood inside the Golden-eyed Bear, you will sense it,” Tianshui’s voice continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, you shouldn’t get your hopes up too high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These low-level Golden Pattern Spiritual Beasts have an extremely low chance of containing Divine Beast essence blood, much lower than the chance of a Soul Crystal appearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But checking it out won’t be a bad thing, and it won’t take much time,” Tianshui added before Jing Yan began his check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay,” Jing Yan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Jing Yan didn’t hold out much hope either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a true Divine Beast might not have essence blood in its body, let alone these lower-level descendants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jing Yan, thank you!” At this time, Lin Ru approached Jing Yan and thanked him with a hint of guilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s nothing,” Jing Yan waved his hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not nothing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without you, our team would have definitely suffered deaths or injuries,” Lin Ru said earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was absolutely right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could not have completely dealt with four Golden-eyed Bears on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jing Yan, what cultivation realm are you at?” Ye Dong was still catching his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Jing Ziqi, none of them had considered that Jing Yan could be a strong martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even before they fought the Golden-eyed Bears, when Jing Yan warned them about the appearance of four Second Level Golden Pattern Spiritual Beasts, they had been unaware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they realized that Jing Yan truly had sensed the presence of the four Golden-eyed Bears ahead of time with his strength alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was laughable that at the moment, they had dismissed it, thinking Jing Yan was spouting nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Peak of Innate Realm,” Jing Yan said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ru and the others subconsciously frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had seen many martial artists at the Peak of the Innate Realm, but they had never come across any who could kill Golden-eyed Bears so effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ziqi, Jing Yan is so powerful, and you didn’t tell us?” Lin Ru turned to Jing Ziqi, feigning anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister, you didn’t ask,” Jing Ziqi smiled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I remember now!” Lin Ru suddenly screamed, “Jing Yan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That name seemed familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have you guys thought about it, the martial artist who won the Golden Order at the Three Major Academies’ assessment not long ago?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The one who won the Golden Order?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wasn’t it someone named Jing Yan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, everyone was exclaiming; they had all heard about this incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A martial artist winning the Golden Order was a rare event in Lanqu County City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being high-level students of the Outer Court at Red Lotus Academy, they naturally knew of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they hadn’t paid much attention, after all, Jing Yan had joined the Dao Yi Academy, not their Red Lotus Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they met Jing Yan, they might have found his name somewhat familiar, but no one connected this young man with the martial artist who had seized the Golden Order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jing Yan, was it really you who passed the Heaven Array and obtained the Golden Order?” Lin Ru asked with shining eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was indeed me,” Jing Yan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Three Major Academies’ assessment, he was the only person to have passed the Heaven Array and acquired the Golden Order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s first discuss how to divide these four Golden-eyed Bears,” Jing Yan took a deep breath and spoke to Lin Ru and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jing Yan, without you, some of us would have died here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take all four Golden-eyed Bear corpses,” Lin Ru immediately said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How can that be right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We all put in a great deal of effort fighting these Golden-eyed Bears too!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look, my arm has been ripped open by one of them,” Gao Lu immediately frowned and objected, “And besides, Jing Yan has already obtained a Golden Pattern Soul Crystal; he’s gained a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can he still take all the profits for himself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Lu was somewhat intimidated by Jing Yan, yet when he heard Lin Ru suggesting giving all the Golden-eyed Bears to Jing Yan, he couldn’t help but jump out in protest.\u003C\u002Fp>",1240,"2026-06-03T10:25:51.819Z",1,"novelbin.me","d949e92d23aa9231c4f733814ec528e39de28a75446bef585e32c71fb3c1bbf6","the-sword-god-of-the-universe-chapter-338","the-sword-god-of-the-universe-chapter-336",2108,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sword-god-of-the-universe-cover.jpg"]
