Chapter 1 Inner Shura Road

Although the Inner Shura Road is more dangerous, that is for ordinary martial artists. In Jiang Xuan's eyes, there is no difference between the Inner Shura Road and the Outer Shura Road, at least in the parts he has encountered.

Therefore, he did not encounter any danger. He just inadvertently stepped on some Saint Lord-level ferocious beasts along the way, and arrived at Divine Inscription City very smoothly.

As the sacred land of the Divine Inscription system, Divine Inscription City is different from other cities. There are no city walls here. Instead, there is a super-large defensive formation. This defensive formation is difficult to break even for Great World Realm Kings, and even weaker Celestial Venerables can resist it for a short time.

Moreover, this great formation also has the effect of gathering the vitality of heaven and earth. The vitality of heaven and earth within a radius of tens of thousands of miles is slowly attracted by this great formation, and finally gathers near Divine Inscription City.

Ordinary martial artists will get twice the result with half the effort when cultivating here. It is no wonder that this place can attract many powerful people. Of course, such a formation also requires immeasurable energy to support it, otherwise it would not be able to operate at all. Jiang Xuan felt that even a Celestial Venerable sacred land would be stretched to maintain a formation of this scale for a long time.

Of course, the long time he was talking about was calculated in hundreds of millions of years.

However, it is precisely because of this that the wealth of Divine Inscription City is even more evident. This is just a large formation used to protect Divine Inscription City. The true foundation of Divine Inscription City is definitely more than that.

Moreover, in the Shura Road, you need to pay a certain fee to enter other cities, but you do not need to enter Divine Inscription City. However, there are also tests. Either you are a genius, or a strong person, or a Divine Inscription Master, or an Alchemist, or a Refiner to enter it.

Apart from not being a Divine Inscription Master, Jiang Xuan meets the other points, and he is already a Celestial Venerable. Those guards guarding Divine Inscription City are only Divine Lords, so who would dare to stop him?

Entering Divine Inscription City, one can see the Divine Inscription Master Guild at a glance. It is the most conspicuous and tallest building in the entire Divine Inscription City.

It is a tall tower, blooming with sacred brilliance, in which you can see mysterious patterns, which resonate faintly with this world.

"Junior Song Wen, greetings, Senior."

Just as Jiang Xuan entered Divine Inscription City, three figures appeared in front of Jiang Xuan. The first to speak was a tall and straight middle-aged man, wearing an immaculate dress. He had a high nose and deep eyes, with deep contours and a deep aura, giving people a very calm feeling.

Besides him, there were also two old men standing beside him. These two old men were both Realm King cultivators. Under Song Wen's introduction, Jiang Xuan also learned their identities. The three of them were all elders of the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

Among them, the two old men were both Rank 6 Divine Inscription Masters. It should be known that in today's Divine Inscription Master Guild, Rank 8 Divine Inscription Masters are already legends, and Rank 9 Divine Inscription Masters only exist in the Primordial myths tens of billions of years ago. It can be said that Rank 7 Divine Inscription Masters are the highest, and the best among them are enough to serve as the president of the Divine Inscription Master Guild!

If we have to compare the cultivation of Divine Inscription Masters with that of martial artists, then Rank 7 Divine Inscription Masters are equivalent to Celestial Venerable-level figures. In fact, there are indeed many Rank 7 Divine Inscription Masters who truly have the strength of Celestial Venerables!

And Rank 6 Divine Inscription Masters are equivalent to Realm Kings, and the best among them are equivalent to Great World Realm Kings.

Being able to become elders of the Divine Inscription Master Guild, Elder Su and Elder Xue are already considered the best among Divine Inscription Masters. Although their martial arts cultivation is at the Great World Realm King level, as Rank 6 Divine Inscription Masters, they are both strong enough to be comparable to half-step Celestial Venerables.

As for Song Wen, he is also a legendary figure. This person is the president of the Divine Inscription Pill Chamber of Commerce in Divine Inscription City, but he is also one of the high-level elders of the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

Of course, the reason why he is said to be a legend is because Song Wen is the only person in the entire Divine Inscription Master Guild who is not a Divine Inscription Master, but has become an elder of the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

Moreover, not only does he not have much attainment in Divine Inscription techniques, but even his own strength is only at the early stage of the Saint Lord realm. However, in the Divine Inscription Master Guild, no one will underestimate him, because he has excellent capital operation abilities. He was able to become an elder for this reason.

As for the president and vice president of the Divine Inscription Master Guild, they are generally held by Rank 7 Divine Inscription Masters, and they are generally Celestial Venerable cultivators. They generally do not show up in the Divine Inscription Master Guild, so the ones who came to receive Jiang Xuan are already considered the top of the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

"Yes, no need to be polite." Jiang Xuan said with a smile.

"May I ask what brings Senior to my Divine Inscription City?" Elder Xue asked. He was extremely unfamiliar with Jiang Xuan, and he was not the Celestial Venerable in his memory. It was likely that he came from the outside world.

"I heard that Divine Inscription City is the sacred land of the Divine Inscription system. I want to cultivate the Divine Inscription system, so I naturally have to come here." Jiang Xuan said with a smile, looking very easy-going.

Song Wen and the other two exchanged glances. This kind of thing is rare, after all, although Divine Inscription City is a sacred land for Divine Inscription Masters, it is not the only place where one can learn the Divine Inscription system.

In the Inner Shura Road, many forces have cultivation methods for the Divine Inscription system, which are not uncommon at all. If Jiang Xuan just wanted to cultivate the Divine Inscription system, he would not need to come to Divine Inscription City specifically.

Of course, as a Celestial Venerable, they did not dare to ask too much, so Song Wen and the others could only act as tour guides and explain the various landscapes in Divine Inscription City to Jiang Xuan.

After Jiang Xuan wandered around Divine Inscription City, he casually found a place to stay, and then bought a lot of Divine Inscription system books from Song Wen and asked him to send them to his residence.

In fact, Divine Inscription Art is a fusion of Divine Runes and Inscription Art. Divine Runes are unique products in the Shura Road, while Inscription Art is divided into twelve ranks in the Shura Road, and Divine Inscription Art is divided into nine ranks. It is not difficult to improve the rank of an Inscription Master, but it is too difficult to improve the rank of a Divine Inscription Master.

However, in the Inner Shura Road, I have heard of Rank 12 Inscription Masters, but I have never heard of Rank 9 Divine Inscription Masters. That is a legendary existence, and perhaps only beings at the True God level can achieve it.

Therefore, Song Wen sent many methods, which encompassed everything and included many knowledge of the Divine Inscription system.

However, Jiang Xuan's divine sense is astonishing. In just a few days, he memorized all the knowledge of the Divine Inscription system. At the same time, he also cultivated the fused Heavenly Eye Divine Power, which is equivalent to cultivating several methods close to the Supreme Divine Martial or even the Supreme Divine Martial level.

Breaking through falsehood and illusions is too simple for him, and he can easily see the flaws and shortcomings in the Divine Inscriptions. It is precisely because of this that his progress in the Divine Inscription system is extremely rapid.

…

A year later, Jiang Xuan finally left seclusion and prepared to participate in the Divine Inscription Master assessment of the Divine Inscription Master Guild. This assessment is held every year. In order to select talents, the Divine Inscription Master Guild has always spared no effort.

For this assessment, a large number of young martial artists flock to Divine Inscription City every year, hoping to be recognized by the Divine Inscription Master Guild and wear the Divine Inscription Master badge that makes people proud on their chest.

Of course, this year is an exception.

After all, when a Celestial Venerable is standing among the examinees, it is estimated that no one can remain calm. The area where Jiang Xuan was located was directly a vacuum area, and only Song Wen and several elders of the Divine Inscription Master Guild were there to entertain him.

However, in fact, Song Wen and the others were also confused. Although they sent many books on the Divine Inscription system to Jiang Xuan, only a year had passed.

Divine Inscription Art is not like other methods. It also requires understanding of Divine Runes, and Divine Runes are manifestations of the power of the Shura Road's Heavenly Dao rules. Cultivating Divine Inscription Art is actually a kind of understanding of the Shura Road's Heavenly Dao. The deeper the understanding, the greater the achievement in cultivating Divine Inscription Art.

It's just that Celestial Venerables act in ways they cannot stop, and they can only try to avoid Jiang Xuan from running into other examinees.

After all, although it has only been a year, Jiang Xuan is a Celestial Venerable. In a year, even if he cannot cultivate Divine Inscription Art to a high level, he is definitely stronger than ordinary examinees.

Those examinees are only seeking a formal Rank 1 Divine Inscription Master position, and not all examinees are confident. If they take the exam with a Celestial Venerable, one can imagine how much pressure they will be under.

More importantly, if the Celestial Venerable makes a mistake and loses face, it will be even worse for their Divine Inscription Master Guild.

Therefore, in the past, when Celestial Venerables came to take the Divine Inscription Art examination, they were all assessed separately for the Celestial Venerable. Under the leadership of Elder Xue, Jiang Xuan also came to a separate space. His assessment will begin here.

"Senior, for the Rank 1 Divine Inscription Master assessment, there is no limit to the number of failures for each person. As long as you complete a Rank 1 Divine Inscription Talisman within five hours, you will pass."

Jiang Xuan's assessment was personally presided over by Elder Xue. He is a Rank 6 Divine Inscription Master, and only those who have reached their level can remain calm in front of a Celestial Venerable.

Jiang Xuan nodded, then took out a Divine Inscription brush and began to draw a complex Divine Inscription.

Only a few dozen breaths passed, and Jiang Xuan successfully drew it. Although his current Divine Inscription Art is not the top level, a Rank 1 Divine Inscription Talisman is still very simple for him.

"As expected of a Celestial Venerable, starting from scratch, a year is enough."

Elder Xue sighed in his heart. This is the power of a Celestial Venerable. To a certain extent, a Celestial Venerable is already an existence on par with the Heavenly Dao of the universe. Only this kind of existence can master Divine Inscription Art in such a short period of time.

It is unknown how long it will take for ordinary beings to reach this level. Even those geniuses will not easily get started in ten years. This is still under the guidance of a famous teacher. Under normal circumstances, a Rank 1 Divine Inscription Master needs decades of accumulation. Getting started within a year, even Elder Xue has never heard of it.

Moreover, in his opinion, Jiang Xuan is definitely not as simple as a Rank 1 Divine Inscription Master. He successfully drew a Rank 1 Divine Inscription Talisman in dozens of breaths. His true strength is likely to be a Rank 3 or Rank 4 Divine Inscription Master, or even higher.

Therefore, he can only sigh that only a Celestial Venerable can have such abilities, but this is also normal. A Celestial Venerable has cultivated for an unknown number of years, and his realm is even higher and can be compared to the Heavenly Dao. Under such high vantage point, learning the Divine Inscription system is naturally very fast.
