Chapter 410 - Return from the Chaos, the Wine Clan
Chapter 410: Return from the Chaos, the Wine Clan
Along with the great improvement of his inner world, and the great increment of its origin, Jiang Ming’s own strength had been improving exponentially too. Therefore the Return of Infinite Law Finger Technique which Jiang Ming had just evoked, was far stronger than before.
Long Jingang was forced to retreat to 100-meters away, leaving a long crack on the iceberg under him that stretched into the distance. However, it didn’t take long before the iceberg quickly returned to its original state.
Rather than being annoyed, Long Jingang was instead in euphoria. He even laughed out loud due to pure joy.
“Haha! Jiang Ming, they all said that you’ve had a breakthrough on your cultivation. Yet now, you are showing me with your actions that you absolutely haven’t broken through. There are absolutely no traces of the supreme Dao fluctuation, techniques and secrets emitting from your body that a Supreme Expert should have had.” Long Jingang’s fighting spirit rose to a monstrous level. “I’ve seen so many Supreme Experts in the past, yet you don’t have the slightest characteristic of a Supreme Expert. I’m guessing that you probably have a type of Supreme Treasure related to soul that allows you to be so overwhelming over others. However, with me as your current opponent, what can you do against me when I have a Supreme Treasure myself?”
The treasured Pagoda on top of his head hung down with rays of luminance, protecting him within. There was also the silhouette of a bell in between his eyebrows. This was a treasure at the pinnacle of the Cosmic Realm, a special Soul Defensive Dao Vessel.
“You’re again thinking that you are capable of taking me down.” Jiang Ming smiled. “Well, since you are so eager to die, I will fulfill you!”
In order to go for a one-hit kill, Jiang Ming combined his consciousness with the World Tree as he evoked the Celestial Heart Sword technique. A blinding sword luminance could be seen coming out between his eyebrows as it directly penetrated the defensive barrier of Long Jingang’s Zhentian Pagoda.
“This is the power of the Saint Soul!” It was at this moment that Long Jingang realized that he was very wrong about Jiang Ming. He was so very wrong that despair was all that was left.
“I should’ve believed the rumors from the outside world. After all, he killed dozens of Cosmic Experts already. If he were not of the Supreme Expert, how could he have killed them in the first place? The moment I saw him, I should’ve fled...”
As such thoughts ran through Long Jingang’s mind, the bell protecting his soul did not manage to block off this sword luminance from Jiang Ming as the attack penetrated the barrier easily and slashed apart his soul.
With one blow, Long Jingang was now dead.
His soul had been annihilated, yet his body seemed to be normal from the outside. However, the will of the body was wiped out.
Zhentian Pagoda trembled and just when it was about to turn into a streak of luminance and flee the scene, Jiang Ming suppressed the treasure using his will and transferred the treasure into the Human Path Record, to be refined later on.
Such a defensive treasure was exactly what he needed at the time.
Jiang Ming went over to Long Jingang’s corpse and scraped out all of his many treasures. There were quite a few Demi-Sage Weapons such as the armor, gloves, ax and a divine bell.
Coupled with the Zhentian Tower, these treasures were extremely luxurious to say the least.
If it wasn’t for the power from the Chaos World Tree, Jiang Ming didn’t have the confidence to kill his opponent with one blow.
“Brother Jiang, did you kill him in one blow?” Luo Heng widened his eyes in shock as his mouth was opened in awe.
He had long heard of Jiang Ming’s capability. However, no matter how good Jiang Ming’s combative records were before, nothing would compare to seeing him in combat first hand.
To think that he had just killed Long Jingang, an expert with a Supreme Treasure, right in front of him. This feeling that Luo Heng experienced was unprecedentedly strong.
“Brother Jiang, I’m amazed!” Zhao Changkong also said in a shock, “From now on, our Human Race finally has the fourth Supreme Expert! Hence, we are going to become mightier. Such a wonderful occasion really requires at least 30,000 toasts of celebration.”
He then took out three bottles of wine and threw them over to Jiang Ming and Luo Heng each.
“Is this the Boundless Spiritual Wine?” As soon as Luo Heng caught the bottle of wine in his hand and took a closer look, his face was filled with a shocked expression. “Rumor has it that this wine is brewed using 10,000 types of the universe’s spiritual objects for 10,000 years. Such a wine is one of the three most famous wines of the universe. There are even more rumors that the taste of this wine not only gives off an endless aftertaste, but also can enhance the level of a person’s genetics with just a pint.”
“Yes, this is the Boundless Spiritual Wine!” Zhao Changkong nodded and continued, “This is the reward that Pan Wang had given me when I advanced into the Cosmic level. He gave me nine bottles but now, these are the last three.”
“This… This is too precious!” Luo Heng hesitated to accept the wine.
“Haha!” Zhao Changkong laughed, “No matter how precious it is, it’s still a beverage to be drunk. Today, I witnessed Brother Jiang killing Long Jingang, marking the emergence of the fourth Supreme Expert of our Human Race. Is there even anything happier than this? No. Only such a wine can add to such a prosperous moment. You don’t have to be too courteous about it.”
“Alright!” Luo Heng didn’t refuse his offer.
On the other hand, Jiang Ming directly opened the bottle of wine and took a sniff. As the countless types of aromas came rushing into his nostril, it circulated within his body and even caused his body to emanate the fragrance of the wine.
.
“Good wine!” Jiang Ming exclaimed in amazement. “Just smelling it makes me feel intoxicated. There are many kinds of aromas within this wine, but they are harmoniously matched and do not conflict with each other at all. The taste is absolutely amazing! As for the other effects that come with it, it didn’t even matter anymore.”
“The good thing about this wine is that it can stimulate the aroma of all kinds of spirits, and the fusion is just right. As for purifying the soul and improving the level of genes of an expert, such effects are useless for the strong like us!” Zhao Changkong laughed, “Brother Jiang, please!”
“Please!”
The three drank with each other.
The boundless smell of wine and its rich aromatic essence caused even a person’s soul to flutter. It was as if the wine was clearing the thousands of troubles and even gave the person a feeling as if he was witnessing the sanctification of a great Dao.
The flow of essence of great fortune contained within the wine circulated the whole body, causing even Jiang Ming’s physique to slightly improve. This showed how terrific the wine was.
“Not bad! This is not bad at all!” It took a while before Jiang Ming recollected himself from the aftertaste. He looked at Zhao Changkong and asked, “Where can I find more of such wine?”
“There is a clan in the universe that is best at brewing wine.” Zhao Changkong laughed, “They are called the Wine Clan, but they are actually a kind of plant life. They were originally known as the Wine Vine Clan. But because the wines they brewed became famous throughout the universe, they began calling themselves the Wine Clan. The Boundless Spiritual Wine is one of their products. However, it’s very difficult to get your hands on them. No, that’s not it. It might be very hard for people like us, but it shouldn’t be that difficult for Brother Jiang. After all, you’re now a Supreme Expert. The Wine Clan will definitely treat you well. If Brother Jiang enjoys fine wines, then go to the Wine Clan. You will definitely be able to get a lot of them.”
“Alright! I’ll remember this!” Jiang Ming remembered this at heart.
To Jiang Ming, fine wine was a kind of enjoyment. Alas, his lifespan was a long journey. Hence, how could he not have any hobbies of some sort? If he could drink and have sex together with his Junior Sister! He wondered how enjoyable that would be.
After the three continued to chat for a while, the three of them began their exploration of this space to reap more treasures together.
However, when they saw Jiang Ming’s terrifying treasure hunting capability, they were really astonished.
“At this rate, it won’t be long before Brother Jiang scrapes all the treasures of the Specter Secret Realm.” Zhao Changkong said with surprise.
With Zhao Changkong’s ability, it would take him more than ten years of effort to completely search through a space of the Specter Secret Realm.
What’s more, there were powerful beasts, many of which were comparable to the Cosmic level, and even the occasional appearance of terrifying beings comparable to the pinnacle of the Cosmic level. In addition to guarding himself against foreign clans, it would take a long time to search through a space.
However, Jiang Ming had obviously broken the norm.
The three of them began to traverse the space non-stop.
At the edge of the universe, a middle-aged man clad in a golden robe had just returned from the Chaos. Upon his return, he was immediately stunned.
“Jingang’s life imprint has actually disappeared.”
“He died?”
“How could he have died?”
“Who among those with the capability of killing him within this universe dare to not give face to me? Even Pan Wang, the strongest of the universe, would not dare lay hands on him if he were to stumble upon Jingang!”
“Who among those below the Supreme level would be capable of killing him?”
“He even has the Supreme Treasure Zhentian Pagoda that I gave him. Its defense is impeccable, and its offensive capability is not far off.”
“No matter who killed my son, he must die!”
“I’ll not only slaughter all your relatives and friends, I’ll also massacre your clan! I’ll then confine and refine you for tens of billions of years! I’ll let you taste all the tortures the universe has to offer.”
The middle-aged expert looked indifferent. Finally, an extremely cold smile hung on his face as he started to collect information on what happened to Jingang.
This person was none other than Jingang’s father, Long Qian, the strongest expert of the Demon Clan. He had been around for billions of years and was terrifyingly powerful.
“Specter Secret Realm, Human Race, Jiang Ming. It’s most likely him. Good! Great! This is very great!”
It didn’t take long for Long Qian to obtain all the information he wanted. He then tore through the void and left the scene, heading towards his destination, the entrance into the Specter Secret Realm.
