Jiang Wang now made it his unshakable routine to absorb the Yang light into his pupils at noon, in addition to his morning and evening lessons. freewebnøvel.coɱ
The peak of cultivation was accumulated one handful of soil at a time; he never took it lightly.
Besides, he had developed another habit, which was to enter the Taixu Illusion Realm at the time of Xu.
"Ning Jianke" would certainly be there at this time.
It had almost become a tacit understanding; they would fight a battle every day at this time.
And then, depending on the situation, they would decide whether or not to fight another battle—usually when they felt they could perform better but hadn’t managed to.
Tonight was no different.
"Ning Jianke" once again presented a high-quality display of swordsmanship and was defeated again.
The score between them had reached eleven to six.
If Jiang Wang won another match, the ratio of their wins to losses would become two to one.
A victory counted in multiples like this meant a difference of an entire level; the significance of their sparring was not as great...
"Ning Jianke" was clearly aware of this, but his expression remained unchanged.
In her eyes, Jiang Wang could still only see the passion for the Sword Dao and the contemplation of combat.
In some sense, they were the same kind of people...
"Ning Jianke" had no intention of immediately fighting another battle and directly left the Taixu Illusion Realm.
Jiang Wang returned to his blessed land space, still mischievously challenging Zhongxuan Sheng to a duel—of course, the chubby one would not agree, but what if one day he slipped up or misread the invitation?
The duel invitation that was destined to sink without trace did not concern Jiang Wang.
Just as he was about to leave the Taixu Illusion Realm, suddenly a water-colored paper crane flew towards him.
It was a message from Zuo Guangshu. freewёbnoνel.com
Catching it in his hand and unfolding it, the letter read—
"The Dao Technique left by that person.
There’s one... that I also think suits you very well."
It was just this sentence, very much in Zuo Guangshu’s style.
Below that were the details of the Dao Technique...
Holding this piece of letter paper, Jiang Wang couldn’t help feeling a bit emotional.
This kid, Zuo Guangshu, really was a bit too proud.
Although he stubbornly claimed that he was researching the Fire Realm Art for Jiang Wang, in his heart he knew very well that Jiang Wang was looking for an opportunity to teach him.
He learned, but didn’t want to take advantage, hastily sending back a gift the very next day.
What particularly moved Jiang Wang was—
The Dao Technique sent by Zuo Guangshu...
Was named "Flame Flower Burning City."
Back on that day outside the outskirts of Fenglin City, when he lay dying in a pile of straw waiting for death... recalling it now seemed like another lifetime.
It was a truly supreme Dao Technique.
At the age of nineteen, Zuo Guanglie broke a city’s defenses with this technique, and outside Fenglin City, he nearly burned down the Nine Sha Xuanyin Formation with it—that was Qin’s ultimate killing formation, which even a formidable figure like Ying Wu had paid a tremendous price to mobilize.
Zuo Guanglie, who died outside the outskirts of Fenglin City, had wanted to leave the Tian Yuan Great Elixir to Zuo Guangshu before his death, but ultimately, it brought Jiang Wang new life.
And today, Zuo Guangshu gave Jiang Wang such a representative Dao Technique of Zuo Guanglie.
The trajectories of fate intersected in such a way after two years, which was truly wondrous...
Jiang Wang thought it over and replied to Zuo Guangshu—
"Taking the family’s secret technique at such a young age, have you obtained your grandfather’s permission?"
Deep down, he still saw Zuo Guangshu as a child, worried that the kid would carelessly take out anything for the sake of what he called face.
Could Zuo Guangshu truly decide about such a valuable and significant Dao Technique?
Zuo Guangshu was willing to give it to him, but he was not willing to just learn it like that.
He was originally guiding the other party in the construction of the Art of the Water Realm; it wasn’t to seek repayment at all.
Zuo Guangshu replied to the letter very quickly, but it wasn’t the annoyance-turned-to-anger Jiang Wang had expected.
The letter contained only one sentence—
"Everything of his has been left to me. I have full authority to deal with it."
The explanation of "Flame Flower Burning City" was still attached after the message.
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, unsure how to respond.
After a long while, he recorded this Dao Technique and then replied, "Alright."
The paper crane flew into the Star River.
Speaking of which, in terms of sheer might, the Flame Flower Burning City might not be more powerful than the future Fire Realm Art.
When Jiang Wang’s cultivation improved, and he gained more insight into the element of fire, and the Samadhi True Fire evolved to higher levels, the Fire Realm Art still had great potential for improvement.
It would definitely be beyond the superior grade.
However, the Fire Realm Art is based on the use of Divine Skills and cannot be taught to others. Unless it’s someone like Zuo Guangshu who happens to have the Divine Skills of the River Lord, doesn’t lack resources, and has a Practice Hall at home...
On the other hand, Flame Flower Burning City truly can be taught to any Cultivator.
Judging by the current value that can be seen, in reality, the Flame Flower Burning City is of greater worth.
Descendants of top noble families are mostly like this, with an innate pride. Most of the time, they would rather suffer a loss themselves than take advantage of others. And for these people, what is called a loss, doesn’t really count for anything. When does Yan Fu, who squanders gold like it’s dirt, ever feel at a loss? It’s just a trivial number.
Of course, Xu Xiangqian and Zhongxuan Sheng are probably two exceptions...
This "Detailed Explanation of Flame Flower Burning City," Jiang Wang could not yet cultivate now; his strength had not reached that level. Even though it’s precious, he could only put it high up in the library for now.
However, the detailed elaboration on the flame flower still brought many inspirations to Jiang Wang.
He was all too familiar with the Dao Technique of the flame flower. It was precisely the foundation of Flame Flower Burning City, and it could even be said that, in Zuo Guanglie’s palace of fire, the flame flower was one of the ornate tiles on the floor.
Based on the flame flower, Jiang Wang had developed the Sea of Flame Flowers and the Spirit Flame Flower and had also incorporated them into the Fire Realm. It can be said that he had mastered the flame flower to an extremely thorough degree.
Dong Ah’s initial insights on the flame flower were far from matching Jiang Wang’s current progress.
But after studying "Detailed Explanation of Flame Flower Burning City," he realized he could do even more...
...
...
The date for the Yellow River Gathering was set, and the person selected to lead the team from Qi Country to the Guanhe Platform had been confirmed.
Cao Jie.
One of the Nine Soldier Commanders of the Military Affairs Hall, he was in charge of an army that had recently made quite an impression—the Chun Si Army.
It was somewhat embarrassing to mention.
The Chun Si Army marched swiftly for two days, breaking through a hundred miles of territory in one day and capturing Jianfeng Mountain; afterwards, they stood undaunted in front of the Summer Country’s great army, their might shaking the world.
But what people remembered was how the War God Jiang Mengxiong was overwhelmingly imposing.
Even Wang Yiwu, the rising star of the army, shone brilliantly.
The strength of the Army of Spring Death was also mentioned repeatedly.
The only one unseen was the Commander of the Chun Si Army, Cao Jie...
Because he wasn’t on the battlefield at all. The Military Affairs Hall mobilized the Chun Si Army, but it was the War God Jiang Mengxiong who led them.
Probably to balance certain voices in the court and to show trust in Cao Jie, Emperor Qi ordered Cao Jie to lead the team and participate in the Yellow River Gathering—this was analyzed between Zhongxuan Sheng and Jiang Wang.
Having already held the ceremony for the great masters, the Yellow River Gathering was naturally a campaign, and moreover, a campaign of the highest standard.
To lead the team at this time, as if a commander going to war, is in itself an honor.
Of course, it’s also a weighty responsibility.
Therefore, only a powerful person could undertake this task.
After all, for Qi Country to send its number one from the Inner Mansion, its number one from the Outer Building, and its top figure under thirty to war—if something happened on the way and they couldn’t reach the Guanhe Platform...
Qi Country would indeed lose face to the extent that the whole world would know.
