So.
Before you know it, Jiang Chengxuan had stealthily positioned himself right behind the Nine-tailed Civet.
This immediately shocked Nine-tailed Civet.
It let out a shrill cry, “Jiang Chengxuan, if you dare kill me, Golden Wolf will never forgive you!”
“Threatening me with Golden Wolf at this point?” A cold glint flashed in Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.
Without a moment’s hesitation, the phantom images of a dragon and an elephant flickered behind him. A terrifying power erupted from his being.
In the sky, a fist as large as a mountain appeared out of nowhere, carrying a terrifying momentum that threatened to obliterate everything, and it plummeted fiercely towards the civet.
“Roar!” Realizing the imminent danger, the Nine-tailed Civet fought back desperately. It began burning its demon core, causing its body to expand rapidly.
300 feet, 400 feet, 500 feet, 600 feet, 800 feet…
Its massive body, now eight hundred feet tall, opened its mouth wide as if wanting to swallow the gigantic fist.
Boom!
The world changed color.
Everyone witnessing this scene was left dumbstruck, eyes wide with shock.
High above, the mountain-like fist smashed directly into the mouth of the demon.
Finally, with a thunderous crash, the fist pierced through the demon’s chest emerging from its back.
Whoosh—
Like a shattered mirror, the civet, as large as a mountain, disintegrated into countless flickering light particles and vanished.
Rumble!
It was only after a long while that a series of earth-shaking rumbles reached the ears of the onlookers. The ground beneath their feet trembled.
In the distance, dozens of mountains, affected by the aftermath of the collision, exploded into dust and scattered into the air.
Swoosh, swoosh—
Simultaneously, the Golden Winged Eagle and Green Flood Dragon, entangled m battle with Shen Ruyan and Earth Walker, didn’t hesitate for a second and fled frantically.
You gotta be kidding me, they thought.
Nine-tailed Civet was really killed by Jiang Chengxuan.
One had to know that the civet was best at preserving its life.
With it dead, how could the other two continue to fight?
In their battle against Shen Ruyan and Earth Walker, they hadn’t gained any upper hand.
Now with Jiang Chengxuan, a monstrously powerful being, joining the fray, the two demon emperors might very well meet the same fate.
Run, they must run!
As the two demon emperors sped away, Shen Ruyan let out a cold snort.
In the next moment, terrifying thunderbolts gathered in her jade-like hand
Above the sky, seven beams of starlight fell instantaneously.
These seven beams of starlight merged with the thunderbolts, ultimately forming a thunderous spear, several feet long, in her hand.
Crackle! Crackle! Crackle!
With a flick of her wrist, Shen Ruyan released the spear.
There was a buzz.
The spear transformed into a lightning afterimage, leaving a trail of char marks in the sky.
“Arghhhh!”
At the same time, a scream from Golden Winged Eagle echoed through the sky followed by a downpour of golden blood. However, though barely surviving this attack, Golden Winged Eagle still managed to escape with the help of Green Dragon Flood.
Earth Walker, observing from a short distance, was inwardly shocked.
It seemed Shen Ruyan hadn’t been using her full strength.
He had a strong premonition that if Shen Ruyan truly exerted her full strength, both of the demon emperors would meet their fate today.
No wonder his senior brother, Perfected Lord Xuan Yang, held this couple in such high esteem.
Perhaps, in the not-too-distant future, there may be two more grand cultivator-level existence in their northern border.
The so-called grand cultivator referred to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm.
At such a level, one could easily overpower and even effortlessly kill mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
The disparity between the early-stage and mid-stage of Nascent Soul might still be manageable, but the gap between the late stage and the former two was worlds apart.
Although they were still in the same realm, in terms of true combat strength, they were no longer on the same level.
This was the main reason why Green Flood Dragon, Golden Winged Eagle and the Nine-tailed Civet, though all Level 5 beings themselves, had to obey ’ Golden Wolf, who was not just any ordinary demon emperor but had reached the late-stage Level 5.
At this moment.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Earth Walker had returned to the state-establishing ceremony.
After the battle, everyone present felt a deep sense of awe for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Jiang Chengxuan had declared that he would celebrate the founding of the state of Jiang and Jiang Nation with the blood of a Level 5 Demon Emperor, and he had made good on his word.
This is really…
Shocking.
Glancing at the crowd, Jiang Chengxuan smiled faintly and announced the continuation of the founding ceremony.
He also took this opportunity to lay down several rules, one of which targeted those who practiced robbery and plunder.
Unless undiscovered, anyone daring to commit such acts within the Jiang Nation would face severe punishment, far worse than death.
This instilled a deep fear in many cultivators present, especially when they recalled how Jiang Chengxuan had dealt with his own family members who committed murder and robbery outside their market town. He had them executed and hung their bodies outside the family gate for a long time.
If he could be so ruthless with his own kin, there was no doubt about the seriousness of the rules he had just announced. Anyone caught violating them would surely face a grim fate.
As the ceremony finally came to an end, Earth Walker prepared to bid farewell to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Before leaving, he informed them of a Nascent Soul-level trade fair to be held by Hidden Sword Palace in ten years. Cultivators from the state of Zhou and its surrounding regions, including Nascent Soul cultivators, were expected to attend.
If the couple needed it, they could go to the Hidden Sword Palace ten years later to participate in the trade fair.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan expressed their gratitude for the information and promised to attend the trade fair at the Hidden Sword Palace in ten years if circumstances allowed.
After bidding Earth Walker farewell, the couple didn’t linger and soon returned to Xuanming Peak on Mount Mystic Tai.
Back at Xuanming Peak, Jiang Chengxuan planned to use the Eternal Heaven Crystal given by Earth Walker, the Sun Crystal he had collected, and various other materials to try forging the Eternal Sun Furnace.
Before embarking on the creation of this fire-attribute intrinsic Dharma treasure, Jiang Chengxuan intended to use the opportunity to observe a weapon Master he had obtained from the system to deepen his understanding and gam more experience in artifact refining.
His goal was to forge the Eternal Sun Furnace into a Level 5 True Treasure in one go.
So.
He needed to further improve his artifact refining skills.
This time, he planned not to refine alone but to invite Shen Ruyan to assist him.
Soon, Jiang Chengxuan told Shen Ruyan his plan.
Naturally, Shen Ruyan agreed with a smile.
After a while, the couple entered Jiang Chengxuan’s seclusion cave abode..
