Chapter 867: The Second Dao Origin Land, Meeting Saint Skywhite Again
Editor: Henyee Translations
Without further hesitation, Saint Zenith immediately sent a message to Leng Yuehua and Stormwrath, informing them of the discovery in this new world.
There were a total of 10 Dao Integration Saints who had entered this new world.
Saint Zenith planned for Leng Yuehua and Stormwrath to join them, knowing that with three Dao Integration Saints present, they could maximize the defensive array’s potential.
This would ensure they had sufficient power to handle any unexpected situations that might arise at this crucial site.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were aware of the significance of consolidating their hold on this Dao Origin Land.
Therefore, the couple was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, they waited for Leng Yuehua and the others to arrive before bidding farewell.
After all, their primary goal besides securing a Dao Origin Land was to find opportunities for themselves.
Now, they had found one Dao Origin land
Next, they only needed to find another, and their mission would be completed.
Furthermore, it was completed perfectly.
Of course.
With the current situation, even if they didn’t look for the other Dao Origin
Land, there wouldn’t be any problem.
However, if you don’t do this, someone will naturally do it for you.
Should it fall into the hands of another sect, it would be a considerable loss for the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan naturally did not want that to happen.
So.
Determined to prevent such an outcome, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan bid farewell to Saint Zenith and Leng Yuehua, setting off towards the general vicinity of the second Dao Origin Land.
However, this search proved far more time-consuming, taking them several years before they finally sensed traces of Dao rhythm above a grand river.
To their surprise, they were not the first to arrive. Saint Skywhite from the Qiankun Hall, along with other cultivators from his sect, were already present. Fortunately, the defensive array had not yet been established, implying that this land was not officially claimed by the Qiankun Hall.
The arrival of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan evidently unsettled Saint Skywhite and his companions, whose expressions darkened at the sight of familiar faces.
It was clear that both parties understood the profound value and significance of the Dao Origin Land.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had no intention of wasting words with Saint Skywhite and his companions, ready to take action immediately.
Previously, facing a Dao Integration Saint like Saint Skywhite would have demanded their utmost caution.
However, after centuries of secluded cultivation, especially after Jiang Chengxuan’s physical cultivation broke through to the late-stage of Level 7 and his intrinsic spiritual treasure was elevated to a heaven-connecting spiritual treasure, their apprehension towards Saint Skywhite significantly diminished.
Furthermore, Saint Skywhite had suffered a major setback when Qin Shenwu stripped him of thirty thousand years of his cultivation, severely impairing his strength.
Now, he was incapable of unleashing the full power of a Dao Integration Saint.
Just as the situation was about to escalate, numerous lights of rapid flight approached from the distant sky, belonging to several different sects.
The appearance of these new arrivals caused the expressions of Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Saint Skywhite to shift subtly.
It didn’t take long for these figures to close the distance, revealing their identities, including some familiar faces.
Gao Baiyue from the pantheon Sect was among them, alongside some from the Divine Shadow Gate, Qian Family, and Sacred Skeleton Sect.
Realizing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan understood that claiming this Dao Origin Land for themselves had become unlikely.
Fortunately, they had already secured another Dao Origin Land earlier, and not just any ordinary one, which somewhat mitigated their disappointment.
Otherwise, it would be a huge loss.
“Ha ha! Brother Jiang, I knew we’d encounter each other on this journey to the new world,” Gao Baiyue laughed heartily, stopping a few miles away from Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan with his companions from the Pantheon Sect.
The cultivators from other sects kept a bit more distance, all of them noticing the anomaly of the area and looking on with intense interest.
Suddenly, a cultivator from the Divine Shadow Sect spoke up,
“Could this place be the legendary Dao Origin Land?”
“Dao Origin Land?”
The mention of the term caused everyone present, including Gao Baiyue, to narrow their eyes in anticipation.
Everyone present was sharp enough to have already sensed the anomaly of this location even before the Divine Shadow Sect’s cultivator mentioned it.
Now, with the situation out in the open, all had quickly pieced together the significance of this place.
At this moment, the one wearing the gloomiest expression was undoubtedly Saint Skywhite.
His sect, the Qiankun Hall, was the first to arrive here with the expectation of clandestinely claiming this Dao Origin Land for themselves.
Yet, not only had the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley arrived before them, but now numerous other sects had as well.
Clearly, with the current situation, the Qiankun Hall’s hope of monopolizing this Dao Origin Land was no longer feasible.
At that moment, he suddenly looked at everyone present and said in a low voice,
“Everyone, our Universe Hall was the first to discover this place.
I can give up this place, but I need 50% of the ownership. What do you think?” By suggesting to cede the location but retain fifty percent of the ownership, he aimed for a compromise that would at least offer some consolation.
However, Jiang Chengxuan’s response was a scoff of disdain.
“Saint Skywhite, have you not awoken fully yet?
Why should your Qiankun Hall alone claim fifty percent of this place just because you discovered it first?
I don’t agree!”
Jiang Chengxuan was clear in his intentions. Given the enmity between them and the Qiankun Hall, he would seize every opportunity to oppose them.
50%…
What a joke.
The idea of allowing the Qiankun Hall even a fraction of control over this land was ludicrous to him.
“Jiang! Cheng! Xuan!”
Saint Skywhite spat out Jiang Chengxuan’s name through gritted teeth, his murderous intent towards Jiang Chengxuan no longer concealed..
