Translator: 549690339
Xuanming Master's face turned extremely ugly.

He discovered a terrible thing – he was completely suppressed by his opponent and confined within this area.

Jiang Ming's comprehension of true meaning was even more terrifying and powerful, giving him a sense of oppression. What was even harder for him to accept was that his opponent had successively comprehended three kinds of true meaning.

So be it, if he comprehended them.

Damn it, he could even freely switch between the three kinds of true meanings, forming a perfect cycle: frost turns into mist, mist condenses into rain, rain becomes ice, and ice creates mist again.

He was trapped in this small cycle, unable to break free.

Xuanming Master also discovered that these three true meanings were rapidly integrating and transforming; it seemed like small streams were winding and large rivers were surging.

“The power of water?”

He let out an exclaimed.

“That's right, the power of water.” Jiang Ming nodded. “Whether it's ice, mist, or rainfall, they all belong to different states of water's evolution. Now, I'm going against the flow, integrating the three true meanings in reverse, thus forming the power of water. Xuanming Master, coincidentally, I also deduced a sword technique from it, so please appraise it.”

“A stream plunges down three thousand feet, like the Silver River falling from the Ninth Sky!”

“With the power of water transforming into a river, incorporating it into the sword technique, I call it the Great River Sword Intent!”

As Jiang Ming's voice fell, his long sword drew an arc in mid-air. The power of ice, mist, and rain all converged together, forming a stream. However, it gave people a feeling of surging and vast torrent.

Descending from the sky, it was indeed like a silver river crashing down, unstoppable.

The condensed supreme power made Xuanming Master's body sank, giving him the feeling of being unable to catch his breath.

“My Ice Essence is actually being suppressed. How could this be? Between true meanings, there shouldn't be a distinction between superior and inferior, only different levels, right?” His face turned extremely ugly, showing a look of horror.

Under the influence of this Dao Resonance, he could hardly maintain the power of his Ice Essence.

“Xuanming Absorption, Boundless Calamity Finger!” Xuanming Master knew that danger was imminent, so he activated his ultimate move that he had comprehended. His body seemingly turned into a black hole, absorbing and condensing endless power and focusing it into a sharp point at his fingertip.

Boom…

There was a massive explosion in the sky, shaking heaven and earth.

“I am finished!” In the instant they collided, Xuanming Master completely despaired as his Ice Essence was shattered by the opponent's power.

The power of the opponent was even beyond his imagination.

In a trance, he seemed to see the old Elder Zhang from the past.

The long sword fell, and Xuanming Master's fingers were crushed, his arm exploded, and then his body was split in two.

The dignified Great Grandmaster and former sect leader were killed on the spot.

Jiang Ming just glanced indifferently and then looked towards the other side of the battle. Perhaps sensing Xuanming Master's death, Situ Ming quickly retreated after pushing Chong Erliang away.

Another powerhouse concealed in the dark also left quietly as the focus shifted.

He didn't pursue and instead closed his eyes, integrating his heart with heaven and earth, and experiencing the changes in the realm of comprehension.

As he comprehended the realm of water, his own body – from flesh and blood, bones, internal organs, to the soul and will, all underwent the baptism of the heavenly powers.

His True Qi quality also increased.

Even his comprehension was improving, and his spirit became more refined.

His vitality was vigorous, full of energy, and even his resilience improved greatly.

These were the enormous benefits brought by the realm of comprehension.

“The way of the realm is vast and profound, and I've only just entered the door.”

The more he comprehended, the more he felt the vastness of heaven and earth and the breadth of nature.

All those who had been watching the battle were dumbfounded.

At first, no one had high hopes for Jiang Ming. After all, he had fought several battles in a row and must have consumed a lot of energy. Moreover, his opponent was a Great Grandmaster, a veteran among the strong, who had once competed with Elder Zhang.

But what was the result?

Jiang Ming not only held his own but also comprehended the power of true meaning, stepping into the realm of the Great Grandmaster.

“Unbelievable!” Bai Yunfei's mouth and tongue went dry, but his eyes burned with excitement. “Did he really kill Xuanming Master? Brother He, Brother Tang, am I dreaming?”

“Not only are you dreaming, but I am also dreaming.” Tang Xiaotian said blankly.

“We're all dreaming together, dreaming the same dream.” He Qianshan murmured and then shuddered. “The world's situation will change. The youngest Great Grandmaster, the most terrifying of the Great Grandmasters, the invincible Great Grandmaster?”

“Although he's monstrously gifted beyond all reason, as long as our old man is still around, he can't be called invincible in this world.” Bai Yunfei curled his lips but sighed, “In the face of such genius, the rest of us… will all be overshadowed.”

It wasn't just being overshadowed, they didn't even have the qualifications to serve as mere foil.

On the other side.

“Is he a human or a ghost?” The black-clothed woman was extremely astonished, “Can a person really be this much of a genius?”

“Of course he can!” Lu Yuan smiled bitterly. He had seen how monstrous Jiang Ming was all along. Although he had grown accustomed to it, his heart was still very shocked.

Unexpectedly, he had broken through during the battle into the Great Grandmaster Realm, even cutting down Xuanming Master, as if in a myth.

“I've truly broadened my horizons.” The black-clothed woman removed her kerchief, revealing her stunning beauty with a hint of rarely seen, compelling aura. “Brother Lu, you must introduce me.”

“He's definitely very happy to meet you, Miss Yan!” A weird look flashed across Lu Yuan's face.

Chang Qing's face was full of admiration.

Their commander had actually slain a Great Grandmaster, an incredible accomplishment against the heaven.

“Commander!” Seeing Jiang Ming open his eyes, Changqing hurriedly walked over.

Lu Yuan and the black-clothed woman also approached.

Constable Jin also came over and bowed to the woman.

“Congratulations, Brother Jiang, for not only becoming a Great Grandmaster but also slaying a big demon head. From now on, there is truly a place for you in this world.” Lu Yuan congratulated them and also returned the two secret methods.

“Brother Lu, you are wrong!” Miss Yan exclaimed, “Brother Jiang has already reached the peak of martial arts. It's not a matter of a place, but controlling the world. Given time, it's not impossible to be invincible in the world.”

“Brother Jiang, she is Yan Feng, titled Fengwu, Princess Fengwu, and is also called Ninth Princess due to her ninth rank.” Lu Yuan introduced, “She has just arrived to deal with Zhang Tong and then the Xiao and Liang families, but happened to run into you. By the way, when the Black Iron Army was dealing with the Xiao family previously, the Ninth Princess had helped with her forces, preventing significant losses. Haha, it's fate.”

“Thank you, Ninth Princess!” Jiang Ming bowed his hand. Her appearance was so beautiful that it made his heart beat faster, “Please, let's sit and talk inside the city.”

“Alright!” The Ninth Princess was very happy, showing no airs of being a princess.

“Everyone!” Jiang Ming looked around at Bai Yunfei and the others, “I will be staying at the Wangyue Lake in the city. How about drinking a glass of water and wine together?”

“It's our honor to be invited by a Great Grandmaster!” Bai Yunfei and the others were overjoyed.

They couldn't even imagine that Jiang Ming was already a Grandmaster and was still inviting them without airs. Who wouldn't agree, who dared not agree!

Everyone immediately stepped forward.

“Chang Qing, arrange someone to clean up the battlefield.!” After making simple arrangements, Jiang Ming entered Mount Dependence City under the escort of everyone.

Liang Dashan sighed as he watched the departing figure, “I still remember the ancestral teachings. No matter how large the family is or how strong they are, they must be humble and prudent, because no one can predict whether there are any rising stars among the people they offend. If there isn't, it's nothing, but once they appear, it could bring disaster for the entire family. For many years, with the help of the Xiao family, we built Mount Dependence City like an iron bucket, even winning over Zhang Tong and controlling the lives and deaths of the people within. Unknowingly, we have forgotten the teachings and thus caused today's disaster.”

While sighing, he cursed in his heart: Damn it, how could we have offended such an extraordinary monster who may not appear once in a thousand years? It's not a man-made disaster, but the heavens do not allow our Liang family to exist!

Inside the city, the side of Wangyue Lake.

This place was meticulously maintained by the Xiao family. The lake was surrounded by weeping willows, white jade railings, pavilions everywhere, flowers competing for beauty, and birds singing.

The lake was clear, and lotus leaves were swaying.

In the center of the lake, there was a small island. From afar, one could see the bamboo garden surrounded by green bamboos, Wangyue Pavilion, fishing platforms, and a courtyard.

On the north side of the lake, there was a large estate where Jiang Ming was staying.

Despite gaining this estate without any expectation, he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Inside the estate, there were servants provided by the Xiao family, food, etc., and a large number of servants sent by the Liang family to manage everything temporarily.

After washing and changing into a white shirt, he had an extraordinary flair.

The feast was over, and the wine and dishes were replaced with fragrant tea.

Jiang Ming took a sip, put down the teacup, looked around, and said with a smile, “Everyone, you are all disciples of a great school with a profound heritage, and all of you practice excellent cultivation methods. I have obtained the Shaoyin Scripture and Shaoyang Scripture, and I am willing to exchange them with you, especially the heart methods.”

Seeing that they were all frowning, he continued, “I just need the general outline of the beginning, and the specific cultivation methods can be left out.”

“In addition, I have more than ten other excellent cultivation methods, including fist, palm, leg, knife, sword, and others.”

“Are you willing to exchange them?”

Jiang Ming took out the Shaoyin Scripture and Shaoyang Scripture and placed them on the table.

“I often wonder if there's a higher realm above the Great Grandmaster level. What was the realm of the two predecessors who comprehended the Nine Yin Divine Art and Nine Yang True Scripture? Can martial arts reach the extreme and shatter the void?”

“However, the current martial world places great importance on tradition, and many people cherish their own methods, even if they are lost, and are unwilling to pass them to outsiders.”

“If this continues, how can the martial arts world flourish? How can it surpass the blue and outperform the blue?”

“What I hope for is to have a glimpse of the scenery above the realm of the Great Grandmaster.”

“And I hope that the powerful warriors of the world can come together, take out their learnings, jointly comprehend them, and create an unprecedented martial arts event.”

“Today, I am bringing these two books and more than ten other cultivation methods to be used as a starting point, a declaration to you, and to all the powerful warriors in the world. I hope to attract some like-minded people.”

“After consolidating my cultivation level, I will deduce a few more martial arts methods that can directly reach the realm of comprehension, and I will also bring them out.”

Jiang Ming's words greatly shocked Bai Yunfei and the others.

“Brother Jiang has an incredible spirit and ambition!” The Ninth Princess was even more amazed, her beautiful eyes flashing with admiration, curiosity, and an inquisitive look.
