Three Enclosures and Four Symbols

Chapter 42 The Top Expert of This Life

"What mysterious energy. It can actually merge with Dharma power, divine soul, and physical body, thereby greatly increasing strength."

After careful comprehension, Jiang Xuan realized just how astonishing the energy surging from the Death Gate was. It not only nourished and augmented the physical body, but could even fuse into Dharma power and the divine soul, causing the power of precious techniques, divine abilities, and soul-killing techniques to surge dramatically in a short period.

This was similar to immortal energy, but different. Immortal energy manifested outside the body, while this mysterious energy fused into the divine soul, Dharma power, and physical body, thereby strengthening them.

It could be said that this mysterious energy and immortal energy were similar yet opposite, one manifesting externally and the other internally, both being fundamental forces of heaven and earth.

"In the Martial Extremes World, opening the Death Gate yields Gang Yuan, one of the three great fundamental energies of the universe. And in my world, opening the Death Gate also brings forth this mysterious energy..." Jiang Xuan pondered, "Humans follow the Earth, the Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows nature. The human body is a microcosm, the heavens and earth are a macrocosm. It seems our previous deduction was correct."

Before deducing the Death Gate technique, they had speculated that the Death Gate was actually a bridge between the human body and the heavens and earth. Once opened, it could draw upon the fundamental forces of heaven and earth.

The mysterious energy he had obtained now was perhaps one of the fundamental energies of heaven and earth in the Perfect World, representing the Dao and Dharma of the heavens and earth, and that was precisely why it could merge with the three treasures of essence, qi, and spirit.

"In that case, I shall call it Divine Power."

Divine, in opposition to immortal, and since this energy originated from the sea of consciousness, calling it Divine Power was fitting.

"A pleasant surprise. Even without cultivating immortal energy, it was definitely worth it." Jiang Xuan thought. The effect of Divine Power was no less than that of immortal energy. Although its boost to combat strength might not be as astonishing as immortal energy, it was permanent and continuous.

More importantly, drawing Divine Power from the Death Gate did not attract strangeness or misfortune. Of course, that didn't mean it was simple. To be reborn from death, the difficulty was no less than refining immortal energy.

"Next, I should seek opportunities and then try to open up an internal world." The appearance of Divine Power was a pleasant surprise, but Jiang Xuan's true path was the internal world.

Previously, they had deduced a path with a chance of success, but the energy required would be very astonishing. Now, he had to go to the Immortal Ancient to find other opportunities.

Now his physical body had been completely reforged, like a treasured body, shining brightly, with boundless power hidden within, even more terrifying than a primordial ferocious beast.

After adapting to his body, Jiang Xuan also began to loot the corpses. He found many treasures on Luo Fantian and Che Yu, but they were of little use. These two had ignited their divine flames, and the truly valuable treasures had certainly already been used. How could Jiang Xuan get his hands on them?

"The Fierce Nest. It seems you were truly destined to die. With this little strength, you dared to run to this ghostly place."

From them, Jiang Xuan also gleaned some information. Their original destination was not this pure land, but the Fierce Nest.

That's right, the Fierce Nest that the exiled immortal, that old schemer, had been planning for countless years. During the last Immortal Dao bloom, even Huang, Shi Yi, the Six Crown King, and others could only be chased away.

Although it wasn't the last Immortal Dao bloom now, the exiled immortal had been planning for six or seven lifetimes. If you said he wasn't around now, Jiang Xuan wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death. Going to him now meant you were dead even if you didn't want to be.

"However, the exiled immortal shouldn't leave the Fierce Nest in this life. What he wants to do is absorb all kinds of divine blood and runes. Now is not yet the most brilliant era, so he definitely won't expose himself."

Jiang Xuan thought, and a wicked idea suddenly surged into his mind: "Hehe, it seems there's hope to swindle him."

The exiled immortal was a fat sheep, suspected of mastering the True Phoenix precious technique and the Heavenly Horned Ant precious technique. Although those things would definitely be difficult to obtain, other things might not be.

The reason he had laid out the Fierce Nest was to complete his own Dao, to lie dormant, all for the sake of sublimating to the extreme in the last life.

This was equivalent to his Dao path. If Jiang Xuan threatened him with this, he might be able to extort some benefits.

"But I can't go now. Let's treat it as a backup plan."

Jiang Xuan thought. The Fierce Nest was full of dangers, and the exiled immortal had already mastered some of it, so before going there, Jiang Xuan had to take another step forward and ignite his divine flame.

"In addition to that, there's also the Fallen Divine Child..."

Among the information he found, the name of the Fallen Divine Child was also mentioned.

Jiang Xuan also had an impression of the Fallen Divine Child. He was hailed as the strongest monstrous talent of this era, and also the champion of this Immortal Ancient. The number one in the world of this era!

He had killed ancient freaks in the Immortal Ancient, including even a Three Crown King, which was extremely amazing.

Of course, what impressed Jiang Xuan the most was that he defeated the two inheritors of the Supreme Dojo of this era, and later showed off in front of Huang, and was then beaten to a pulp by Huang.

"The inheritors of the Supreme Dojo, I remember their names were Qin Heng and Yu Changkong."

Jiang Xuan came from the Heavenly Immortal Academy, which was adjacent to the Supreme Dojo. He naturally knew the reputation of Qi Daolin, so he also knew these two unlucky fellows who had become disciples under him and were regarded as enemies by all the monstrous talents of the Three Thousand Provinces.

But knowing was one thing. There was still a big gap between him and these two before. After all, they were top monstrous talents of the Three Thousand Provinces, while Jiang Xuan was not very famous before.

It could be said that there was a fundamental gap between him and these two in terms of status. They were geniuses who were famous throughout the Three Thousand Provinces, comparable to the strongest first generation, while Jiang Xuan was just a disciple of the Heavenly Immortal Academy.

Of course, as the saying goes, thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Now, if he really encountered them, he would not be afraid at all, and even had the confidence to suppress them.

"In other words, the biggest opponent in this Immortal Ancient should be the Fallen Divine Child, right? That unknown Three Crown King should also be considered one of the formidable enemies."

Jiang Xuan thought. Although there was an old schemer like the exiled immortal lurking in the dark, in general, there wouldn't be too many powerful monstrous talents in this Immortal Ancient. Now, Jiang Xuan's strength was definitely at the top.

After analyzing the top combat power of this life, Jiang Xuan also had a bottom line in his heart. Although he had not yet become a god, even if the strongest first generation ignited their divine flame, they might not be able to defeat him. As long as he didn't provoke those heavenly gods who already existed in the Immortal Ancient, he would have nothing to fear.

"Now, it's time to go there."

Jiang Xuan gazed into the distance. Every time the Immortal Ancient was opened, the strongest first generation and the ancient freaks would rush there to seek opportunities.

The Six Crown King had obtained a hand bone of an immortal there, and the Ten Crown King had obtained a sapling of a world tree there.

These words were spoken by Cao Yisheng's master, a big shot who was suspected to be an immortal king. Jiang Xuan naturally remembered them clearly. Now that his strength had greatly increased and he stood at the peak of this life in the Immortal Ancient, he naturally had to go.
