Realm-Hopping Martial Master-Chapter 490 - 291: Jiang Shu... Seeking Death, I’ll Fulfill You_2

Seventy Divine Skills were just the tip of the iceberg for him.

Even more terrifying was that Zhou Yan had become a disciple under an elder in the Late-stage Nihility Realm and already possessed a Heavenly Rank Treasure and a Heavenly Rank Formation. His methods and trump cards could be said to be extremely formidable among those in the Primordial Pill Realm.

Even among the True Martial Sect’s Inner Sect Disciples, he could compete for the top five. His power was extraordinarily frightening.

Jiang Shu, no matter how powerful and astonishing he was, what he currently displayed—be it Divine Skills or the rank of his Great Array—was slightly inferior to Zhou Yan’s.

From their perspective, Jiang Shu should now become a disciple under a powerful Nirvana Realm elder and cultivate for several more years; only then would he stand a chance in a fight.

"Senior Brother Jiang is so powerful, why can’t he stay patient? Senior Brother Zhou Yan isn’t just any Inner Sect Disciple; he could directly make it onto the True Inheritor Seed list."

An Inner Sect Disciple shook his head, clearly not optimistic about Jiang Shu.

No matter how strong Jiang Shu was, or how incredible his opportunities were, he had only just returned from outside the sect and lacked true cultivation depth.

In the sect, those disciples who could make it onto the True Inheritor Seed list weren’t as simple as they appeared on the surface.

If they weren’t competing for the positions of the Ten Great True Inheritors, each one of them would have a great chance to step into the Nirvana Realm and directly become elders of the True Martial Sect.

"I heard that not only has Senior Brother Zhou Yan mastered seventy Divine Skills, but under the guidance of his Master, Yunyan True Monarch, he has gained some comprehension of Heavenly Rank Divine Power and Samadhi True Fire. Several Earth Rank Divine Powers related to fire have even reached small success, or even Great Success."

"Once he succeeds, he will completely step into the Nirvana Realm, and then it will be time for him to compete for one of the Ten Great True Inheritor positions."

"Senior Brother Jiang is too impatient. Although he has received many opportunities, has Senior Brother Zhou Yan necessarily received fewer? Receiving the inheritance of a Nirvana Realm Monarch and receiving guidance from a Nirvana Realm Monarch as one’s Master are completely different."

"Not to mention, the Divine Skills cultivated within the sect are entirely different from those outside. The Divine Skills from outside the sect might form a complete system, but they are just a Nirvana Realm system. Inside the sect, the Divine Skills that Senior Brother Zhou Yan cultivates come from the Path of Fire, complementing and supporting each other, and their combined power far surpasses ordinary combinations of Divine Skills."

"That being said, I still think there’s a possibility that Senior Brother Jiang isn’t as he seems. As far as I know, he was still an Outer Disciple a year ago, and in just one year, he progressed from the Furnace Fire Realm to Late-stage Yuan Dan. Such a terrifying increase in strength isn’t something that an ordinary inheritance from a Nirvana Realm Monarch could bring about."

"What, an Outer Disciple a year ago?"

The Inner Sect Disciples were shocked, but more of them followed Jiang Shu’s gaze towards Sky Flame Peak.

They all wanted to see Zhou Yan’s reaction.

This act undoubtedly completely angered some of Sky Flame Peak’s Inner Sect Disciples.

Sky Flame Peak was considered quite cohesive. As Zhou Yan’s strength increased, some disciples became his followers, hoping to support Senior Brother Zhou Yan to become one of the sect’s Ten Great True Inheritors. How could they tolerate a newly promoted disciple openly challenging him, even if this new disciple’s performance was already terrifyingly strong?

"Jiang Shu! Do you think Senior Brother Zhou Yan is someone you can challenge whenever you please? Face my palm strike first!"

A hot-tempered Sky Flame Peak disciple stepped forward, a massive aura condensing in front of him, eventually forming five huge fingers. The fingers, like mountains, gathered together as if mountains were converging. It was the True Martial Sect’s Earth Rank Divine Power, the Five-finger Mountain Moving Seal.

In his view, even though Jiang Shu was strong, ultimately, he was just a lucky fellow who had gotten fortunate outside the sect.

No matter how many Divine Skills he possessed, one must have the capability to actually deploy them!

Out of those sixty-eight Divine Skills, how many had he truly cultivated himself? Perhaps most were just the result of refining other people’s Primordial Pills, lacking his own true understanding!

"If Zhou Yan doesn’t come, none of you are my opponents."

Besides this disciple, the rest of the Sky Flame Peak disciples were also restless, their Primordial Power surging around them. One after another, Divine Skills erupted with immense power in front of them.

Every one of them had cultivated more than fifty Divine Skills.

Their cultivation realms were all, without exception, in Late-stage Yuan Dan.

In Fuhai City, they could easily kill more than eighty percent of Primordial Pill Realm Loose Cultivators.

But facing the assault of these Sect Disciples, Jiang Shu did not even lift his eyelids.

He just stood there, his aura unmanifested, simply inhaling and exhaling.

And between these breaths, it was as if Treasure Patterns were condensing around him, and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, as if encountering their sovereign, continuously submitted to him.

From all directions, from the unseen void, it converged.

This Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi all coalesced into streams that circled around Jiang Shu.

All the disciples who wanted to strike at Jiang Shu suddenly realized that the power of the Divine Skills they had gathered was beginning to fade.

He simply said, "Go."

With two fingers pressed together, he flicked lightly, and a stream of air directly pierced through the great five-fingered mountain in the sky.

The Five-finger Mountain Moving Seal, which could kill an Early-stage Primordial Pill Realm cultivator with a single palm strike, shattered into several pieces from this flick of his fingers.

The Sky Flame Peak disciple, who had mastered more than fifty Divine Skills, spat out a mouthful of blood from the backlash of the Divine Power he had used.

His eyes were filled with shock, an expression of disbelief on his face as he looked towards the calm and composed Jiang Shu in the air.

It was only then that he fully realized Jiang Shu’s terrifying strength.

He defeated me without even deploying any Divine Skills. Such strength is indeed enough to qualify him for the True Inheritor Seed list.
