Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 1234 - 161: Invincible Grandmaster, Jiang Ning!

Chapter 1234: Chapter 161: Invincible Grandmaster, Jiang Ning!

In the mountains and forests.

When Nan Zhiwei appeared again in front of Jiang Ning and Ye Zhengqi.

His hair was disheveled, his clothes ragged, and he was stained with blood.

Yet there wasn’t a single wound visible on his exposed skin.

Jiang Ning understood that it wasn’t that Nan Zhiwei wasn’t injured, but rather that his external injuries had all healed in that brief moment.

"Lord Jiang, what sword technique is this?" Nan Zhiwei looked at the unremarkable long sword in Jiang Ning’s hand and asked.

"Superior Sword Technique, Yin Yang Soft and Hard Sword!" Jiang Ning replied.

"Yin Yang Soft and Hard Sword? Such a profound sword technique, not something a normal superior sword technique can match!" Nan Zhiwei remarked with emotion.

Having recently confronted the explosion from Jiang Ning’s sword, he knew Jiang Ning’s strength had surpassed his, with the capability to defeat him.

That sword made him feel as if he were facing true heavenly power, the eruption of Sword Qi like a Heavenly River pouring down, beyond human resistance.

If not for having completed the Seven Blood Transfusions, making his physical body virtually indestructible, that sword could have taken half his life.

Even now, while his external wounds have healed due to the powerful vitality of his body, remnants of sword intent continued causing havoc internally.

"Lord Jiang, I’d like to experience that move from you again, akin to the Great Sun," Nan Zhiwei looked at Jiang Ning with a serious expression.

Seeing Nan Zhiwei’s earnest expression, Jiang Ning nodded.

"Alright!"

"Thank you!" Nan Zhiwei’s face immediately lit up with joy.

For him, having been stuck at the last step for ten years, if he didn’t break through soon, as he aged, he would be confined to this level for life.

This outcome was unacceptable to his proud and ambitious nature.

Without the opportunity to advance, he would rather die in pursuit of Martial Arts progress.

"Please instruct me!" Nan Zhiwei said seriously, gripping his long sword, his entire aura transforming as if he were a Divine Sword newly unsheathed, sharp and radiant.

Jiang Ning nodded.

The next moment.

It seemed as if a Great Sun rose within him.

Qi Blood Power boiled, his blood burned, terrifying heat erupted from within, and golden light burst from his pores.

In an instant, the surrounding air started to distort.

Jiang Ning was enveloped in endless golden light.

Then, a Great Sun seemed to rise in the forest, the golden light dazzling and glaring, as if the overhead sun descended to earth at that moment.

...

In the Royal Capital.

The Observatory.

"Quick, quickly invite the lord over! In the region of Zeshan State and Guangning Prefecture, an energy wave of an Invincible Grandmaster has appeared."

A startled exclamation resounded instantly on the second floor of the heart of the Observatory.

The next moment.

Several figures immediately gathered around, surrounding a Compass.

At the center of the Compass, there was an emblem of Yin Yang Tai Chi, surrounded by the Bagua patterns of heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, fire, mountain, and lake, as well as the Ten Heavenly Stems and the Twelve Earthly Branches.

As the Compass emitted a bright light.

A Great Xia Geographic Map hovered a foot above the Compass.

The outlines of the Thirty-six Prefectures of the Nine States were clearly visible.

The group quickly saw a bright and extraordinary wave appearing near Guangning Prefecture within the borders of Zeshan State.

At that moment.

An elderly man, white-haired and youthful, dressed in a long robe, appeared before the Compass.

"Greetings, Lord Si!"

"Greetings, Lord Si!"

"..."

Everyone bowed continuously.

The elderly man nodded slightly, his gaze firmly fixed on the geographic light-shadow map of the Thirty-six Prefectures of the Nine Provinces hovering above the Compass.

"Energy wave of an Invincible Grandmaster!" the elder narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp.

The next moment. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

He raised a finger, and a beam of light shot into the Compass.

Instantly.

The bright spot on the light-shadow map began rapidly expanding, quickly forming into a plane of interwoven light and shadow.

In the map, there appeared a blindingly bright golden Great Sun.

Under the intense rebounding light, no one could see clearly what was happening in the picture.

...

On the other side.

In the mountains and forests.

The sword of Jiang Ning descended.

Boom——

Nan Zhiwei immediately felt the fierce and dominant Great Sun descending, enveloping him.

On the other side.

Ye Zhengqi also immediately retreated, in an instant reaching a spot dozens of meters away.

Then he saw the golden light dissipate, observed Jiang Ning standing with his sword, and saw Nan Zhiwei’s entire body now charred black.

It was impossible to distinguish between the burnt flesh and the melted fabric of his clothes.

"What cultivation technique is this..." Nan Zhiwei opened his mouth slowly, speaking with difficulty.

"Great Sun Soaring Sky Realm!" Jiang Ning replied.

"Great Sun Soaring! What a... Great Sun Soaring!!" Nan Zhiwei spoke with difficulty.

Looking at Jiang Ning in front of him, his heart was filled with complex emotions.

Having personally experienced that sun descending to earth, he now understood the terror of Jiang Ning’s move.

At that moment, he almost felt he would dissolve in that Great Sun.

Had that feeling lasted even two or three more breaths, the outcome would not have been as it is now.

"I am defeated!" Nan Zhiwei spoke, his speech suddenly much smoother.

"Does Master Nan need help with his injuries?" Jiang Ning inquired.

"No need!" Nan Zhiwei shook his head.

Jiang Ning could clearly feel that Nan Zhiwei’s condition had improved significantly compared to just now.

The next moment.

A flash of light appeared in Nan Zhiwei’s hand, and a jade box appeared.

Accompanied by the opening of the jade box, a brightly glowing, yellow-orange pill appeared inside.

Then, Nan Zhiwei swallowed the pill from the jade box in one gulp, closing his eyes slightly.

At the same time.

Ye Zhengqi also walked back over.

Several breaths later.

Nan Zhiwei opened his eyes.

The freshly charred and curled hair on his head began to fall off, and new hair began to grow.
