Chapter 383: Chapter 381: First Hearing of the Holy Mountain Immortal Stele
What a magnificent sight it was.
The youth, calm and indifferent, lifted a finger. With a single touch, the genius from the Heavenly Dao Realm was turned to ash!
Yes, that was exactly the feeling.
Everyone was momentarily stunned into silence!
In a battle between those of the same realm, was a genius from the Heavenly Dao Realm truly as weak as a mortal ant in that human youth’s eyes?
The few beings of Royal Lineage from the Six Paths Realm stared, dumbfounded.
They couldn’t believe it, couldn’t accept it.
Was that youth the same person they had ignored, the one they had treated as mere spoils of war?
He... was actually that powerful!
He... he should be qualified to enter the Six Paths Illusion Realm, right?
The entire scene fell silent. Jiang Jichen, however, was busy experiencing the power of the Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm.
Even without unsealing his Seven-Colored Spiritual Vein and completing the final step of Spiritual Power conversion, he was confident he could sweep away any opponent in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Within his body, his four-tiered Dao Platform was fully constructed, having reached perfection.
It now floated restlessly within his Qi Sea Spirit Mist, appearing and disappearing, seeming incomparably mysterious.
With but a thought, the four-tiered perfect Dao Platform would tremble, and infinite power would instantly flood his entire body.
He could truly make his power manifest wherever his thoughts went. It was an incredibly powerful feeling!
Of course, if he were to unseal his Seven-Colored Spiritual Vein and complete the final step of his transformation...
The level of power he would reach was something even he dared not imagine!
After briefly savoring the feeling of his breakthrough, Jiang Jichen’s gaze fell upon the few Royal Lineage beings from the Six Paths Realm, a grim killing intent appearing on his face.
"Brother, this is all just a misunderstanding! I don’t want the Inner Core anymore. I’ll leave now!"
The Royal Lineage youth from the Dark Race sensed the killing intent in Jiang Jichen’s eyes and quickly spoke in a panic. Not a trace of his previous arrogance remained; his posture was utterly submissive.
There was even a hint of pleading and surrender in his tone.
’As for things like pride and integrity?’
’What a joke. Even a genius from the Heavenly Dao Realm was obliterated by a single finger. Resisting would be suicide.’
’If I lose my life, what damn use are pride and integrity?’
"Brother of the Human Race, that was just a joke earlier. Please don’t mind it!"
The Royal Lineage Undead youth also spoke up, hoping to let the matter drop. He was genuinely terrified.
Even the loud, booming Royal Lineage Lion Beastman lowered his voice and said, "Um, just now, just now... I must have been possessed by an Illusion Beast! I don’t even know what the hell I was doing. If I offended you in any way, brother of the Human Race, please be magnanimous!"
Hearing the Royal Lineage Lion Beastman’s words, everyone was left speechless.
’Possessed by an Illusion Beast?’
’Damn, he could even come up with such a bizarre excuse!’
’It was clear he was really desperate to live!’
However, Jiang Jichen’s expression didn’t change in the slightest. He just gave a cold, indifferent sneer.
"Leave now?"
"Don’t mind it?"
"Be magnanimous?"
"Heh heh..."
Jiang Jichen’s final dry laugh made the faces of all the Royal Lineage beings change drastically. They knew this matter would not be resolved easily.
As expected, Jiang Jichen’s voice suddenly turned cold. "Then why didn’t you think to take the Inner Core, not mind it, be magnanimous, and just let us leave? Instead, you treated us like spoils of war to be divided up as you pleased, and you even wanted to kill me?"
"Only you are allowed to enslave and slaughter others, but others aren’t allowed to kill you? Since when is there such a convenient rule in this world?"
"So, today, you all must die!"
With that last sentence, Jiang Jichen pronounced their fate with an air of finality.
Just as they had pronounced the fate of Jiang Jichen and the women with him the moment they appeared.
The Royal Lineage Undead youth’s face fell. The deathly aura around him surged as he said, "We know that you killed a genius from the Heavenly Dao Realm. I have a Secret Technique that can transmit this information to the Heavenly Dao Realm. When that happens, anyone who steps out of the Six Paths Illusion Realm could kill you a thousand times over with a flick of their hand. Human brat, I hope you don’t bring disaster upon yourself!"
When begging failed, he could only resort to threats.
The Royal Lineage Undead youth hoped Jiang Jichen would fear the Heavenly Dao Realm and let them go.
This wasn’t the first time Jiang Jichen had heard them mention the Six Paths Illusion Realm. From the sound of it, the Six Paths Illusion Realm was an incredibly formidable place.
’Anyone at all could kill me ten million times with a flick of their hand?’
Jiang Jichen remained expressionless and said nonchalantly, "The Six Paths Illusion Realm? I’d love to know where it is, so I can see how I’ll go over and sweep through it."
However, no sooner had Jiang Jichen spoken than the Royal Lineage youth from the Dark Race sneered, "Sweep through it? What do you think the Six Paths Illusion Realm is? No one below the Spirit Infant Realm can enter. You don’t even have the qualifications to get in right now, yet you dare make such an outrageous claim. Truly ignorant!"
"But with your talent, you’ll inevitably have to enter the Six Paths Illusion Realm eventually. If you want to achieve the Great Dao, you must go!"
Seeing that the killing intent around Jiang Jichen had vanished, the few Royal Lineage youths from the Six Paths Realm thought their words had stunned him, so they spoke with even more vigor.
The Royal Lineage Undead youth continued, "The Six Paths Illusion Realm is the only place where beings from all Six Paths can enter, unimpeded by world barriers. However, there are conditions. The weakest must be at least at the Spirit Infant level, and the strongest no higher than the Saint Realm. To enter, one must also climb the Extreme Celestial Tier, which has nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine steps. Only those who ascend more than one-third of the way can get in. Therefore, everyone in the Six Paths Illusion Realm is a peerless genius among geniuses. There are even old monsters at the Spirit Infant Perfection Realm or Nascent Soul Perfection who have lived for eons. They are all the strongest experts within their respective realms. Any single Spirit Infant Realm Cultivator from the Six Paths Illusion Realm could easily sweep through the Spirit Infant Level sections of the Heavenly Refining Ancient Road."
"And within the Six Paths Illusion Realm, the most powerful faction is... the Heavenly Dao Realm!"
"They have the most names of prodigies engraved on the Holy Mountain Immortal Stele’s list!"
"And anyone whose name can make it onto the Holy Mountain Immortal Stele’s list is a renowned, invincible genius in the Six Paths Realm!"
Finally, the Royal Lineage Undead youth deliberately emphasized that the Heavenly Dao Realm was the strongest in the Six Paths Illusion Realm, because Jiang Jichen had killed one of their geniuses.
If Jiang Jichen wanted to achieve the Great Dao and walk a longer path, he would eventually have to step into the Six Paths Illusion Realm, where he would inevitably have to face people from the Heavenly Dao Realm.
And if the people of the Heavenly Dao Realm learned now that Jiang Jichen had killed one of their own, he would surely be branded their enemy.
In the future, when he entered the Six Paths Illusion Realm, there would be no place for him to hide.
This was the threat that the few Royal Lineage beings wanted to convey.
Unless Jiang Jichen didn’t want to achieve the Great Dao and never set foot in the Six Paths Illusion Realm!
In that case... they would truly be out of options.
However, in their eyes, the human youth before them possessed terrifyingly immense talent. Once he stepped into the Spirit Infant Realm, his power would be unimaginable.
A person like that would never give up the chance to enter the Six Paths Illusion Realm.
And just as they guessed, Jiang Jichen would definitely enter the Six Paths Illusion Realm.
But what he was thinking about right now wasn’t the Six Paths Illusion Realm, but rather what the Royal Lineage Undead youth had mentioned... the Holy Mountain Immortal Stele.
’Isn’t that what I’ve been searching for all this time?’
