Jiang Xundao waved his hand, signaling that he understood. Although a formal engagement couldn’t be arranged right now, it was still possible to let Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan interact more.
Watching his father hurriedly leave, Jiang Wang shook his head helplessly. He then gathered his focus and stopped thinking about such things.
He stepped into the deepest part of the Immortal Estate, where a small world existed—accessible only to Jiang Wang himself.
Within it grew countless immortal herbs and divine medicines. Treasures glowed everywhere, and spiritual Qi filled the entire space. Frightening Dao resonance descended, incredibly profound.
Just breathing the air here could extend a mortal’s life by a hundred years. Even the Nine Yang Mystic Herb was one of the most ordinary things in sight.
Jiang Wang stepped into the center of the immortal grasses and treasures, where a spiritual pool was located. This pool was filled with a special liquid brewed from matured immortal medicines. It could temper the body and greatly assist in merging the body with spiritual Qi.
He took out the vial of True Dragon Blood and slowly poured it into the pool. A majestic dragon roar echoed at once! As the blood merged with the medicinal pool, the liquid began to boil violently!
Without hesitation, Jiang Wang stepped in, sat cross-legged, and began cultivating, absorbing the essence of the True Dragon Blood. As he absorbed it, the medicinal pool gradually calmed. But around his body, several True Dragon phantoms swirled, and his aura grew immensely powerful!
No one knew how much time passed when he suddenly opened his eyes. Golden light flowed in his gaze, within which miniature worlds collapsed and reformed—sun and moon lost their glow. Judging by his aura, he had already reached the half-step Mysterious Spirit Realm!
“My physique can no longer be improved even slightly, but my strength has increased again. Right now, I should have a punching force of around 50 million kilograms! Shattering mountains or seas is no problem now. But more importantly…” Jiang Wang opened his palm, and a phantom of a True Dragon appeared—quiet and obedient in his hand. “Ancient Dragon Art! This blood really contained an immortal technique! It must’ve been prepared by Li Jingtian for Li Kun, but unexpectedly, Father intercepted it!”
A faint smile appeared on Jiang Wang’s lips as he dispersed the True Dragon phantom in his hand. Giving this blood to Li Kun would’ve been a waste. In his past life, Jiang Wang had never heard of Li Kun gaining any ancient dragon inheritance, so it was likely he failed to obtain it. It was better for him to carry on this ancient art instead.
He was just about to resume cultivation and stabilize his realm when he suddenly sensed someone outside the Immortal Estate.
Exiting the small world and returning to the main estate, he had already changed into a clean robe. With a thought, the gate of the Immortal Estate opened. The immortal servant he had previously ordered to monitor Ye Fan quickly knelt down upon seeing him.
“Forgive me, Divine Son! I’ve been watching Ye Fan closely, but somehow he blocked my senses. I only discovered this morning that he had disappeared!”
Ye Fan’s gone?
Jiang Wang quickly calculated the time. The maturity of the Profound Flame Dao Fruit was likely around now. As for the immortal servant, Jiang Wang waved his hand to dismiss him.
Even the lowest-ranked immortal servants of the Jiang Clan were at the Mysterious Spirit Realm, far stronger than Ye Fan. Under normal circumstances, Ye Fan couldn’t possibly escape their sight. New chapters come out on novelping(.)com first.
Unless… Jiang Wang suddenly remembered a tale from his past life—how Ye Fan, after becoming a Supreme, helped someone named Supreme Xuanming rebuild their body. According to Ye Fan himself, Supreme Xuanming had guided him throughout the journey and helped him rise so quickly.
It seemed likely that this so-called Supreme was the one who masked his aura and helped him escape the immortal servant’s surveillance!
Realizing this, Jiang Wang’s figure instantly vanished. When he reappeared, he was already above Li Qingxuan’s Immortal Estate. This luxurious estate, bathed in divine light, had originally been a gift from Jiang Wang for her cultivation and residence.
“I’ll let you enjoy it for a bit longer. Soon… it’ll be gone for good.”
Jiang Wang stared coldly at Li Qingxuan inside the estate. A quick scan with his divine sense confirmed that Ye Fan was no longer there.
“Looks like he’s already heading for Mystical Province.”
With that thought, Jiang Wang transformed into a streak of light and rushed toward Mystical Province.
Ye Fan had his Immortal Bone dug out and was suffering from Dao injuries—he couldn’t possibly move quickly. As long as Jiang Wang arrived before him and took the Profound Flame Dao Fruit, not only would he gain a massive amount of Fortune Points, but he could also drive a wedge between Ye Fan and Supreme Xuanming, depriving him of a major ally!
Immortal Domain, Changsheng Li Clan—
“Patriarch, our scouts report that Jiang Wang left the Jiang Clan and headed for Mystical Province about an hour ago,” reported an elder with snow-white hair and terrifying aura as he entered the Li Clan’s grand hall.
“Great Elder, are you certain this news is reliable?” Li Jingtian’s expression turned cold, his tone sharp.
Ever since he returned from the Jiang Clan, his mood had been sour. His only son, Li Kun, had suffered shattered bones across his whole body. Though his life wasn’t in danger, he would need three to five months of recovery. Worse, the Li Clan had lost a Supreme. The blood and feather could be replaced, but a fallen Supreme—that was a true loss.
“Patriarch, the news is absolutely true,” the Great Elder confirmed once more.
“If that’s the case… send a Supreme to hold off Jiang Wang’s protector. Then find a few Mysterious Spirit Realm rogue cultivators—cripple Jiang Wang!”
“Patriarch, Jiang Wang’s Talent is terrifying. Mysterious Spirit Realm might not be enough!”
“Then send a few Dao Entry Realm rogues! Don’t kill him—just keep it clean and leave no evidence. Otherwise, that mad dog Jiang Xundao could do something crazy!” Li Jingtian snapped impatiently. Read the latest chapters at g.com.

The Great Elder retreated, while Li Jingtian’s cold voice echoed through the grand hall. “Jiang Xundao, you humiliated my Li Clan—then I’ll make you suffer in agony! With your Divine Son crippled, let’s see who else in the Jiang Clan’s younger generation can hold the banner!”
Ten days later—
Jiang Wang tore open the void and arrived at Mystical Province. Looking around at the surroundings, he frowned slightly. The spiritual Qi here was far inferior to that of Heavenly Province, where the Jiang Clan resided.
“If I recall correctly, Ye Fan found a hidden paradise in Mystical Province during my past life. The Profound Flame Dao Fruit is likely within that place.”
As he thought about it, his eyes suddenly moved, and he instantly suppressed his aura, hiding in the shadows.
A ripple swept through space—Ye Fan appeared, tearing through the void to arrive.
From the shadows, Jiang Wang’s eyes narrowed. Despite having his Immortal Bone removed, Ye Fan had still arrived so quickly?
“Elder Ming, where exactly is the hidden paradise you mentioned?” Ye Fan looked at the desolate surroundings with doubt.
“Elder Ming?” Jiang Wang’s eyes gleamed. This Elder Ming was surely that Supreme!
Then he saw a phantom emerge from the necklace around Ye Fan’s neck. Supreme Xuanming calmed his spirit and said, “Don’t worry. Walk another 50 kilometers forward. You’ll see a waterfall. Behind it is a stone gate—beyond that is a small world. That’s where the Profound Flame Dao Fruit lies.”
Ye Fan’s eyes lit up. “Then, Elder Ming, please use your ability to teleport me there. Just in case something goes wrong.”
Supreme Xuanming sighed, “Walk the rest yourself. Sending you from Heavenly Province to Mystical Province already drained me quite a bit.”
Though disappointed, Ye Fan nodded without complaint.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wang, hiding in the shadows, had heard everything clearly. “50 kilometers ahead… a waterfall…”
With a flash, he vanished on the spot.
