Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, not saying much, though there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

"No need to pity me!"

The Shadowless Sword Emperor seemed to see through what Jiang Chen was thinking, and chuckled, "In my life, I have been unrivaled in my realm, and at the moment of my death, I created the Primordial Spirit Technique. I am content!"

"Primordial Spirit Technique!?"

"Is it really the Primordial Spirit Technique?"

Several people from Jian Cangqiong exclaimed.

Jiang Chen’s heart couldn’t help but tremble fiercely.

The Primordial Spirit Technique, as the name implies, is a combat skill carried out using Primordial Spirit Power. In the past, only Saints could perform such techniques, as only they possessed the powerful primordial spirit necessary to wield them.

Yet at this moment, the Shadowless Sword Emperor was not a Saint, but he still executed the Primordial Spirit Technique, pioneering a path for cultivators, at least for those on the Canglan Continent!

"Young man, I am about to dissipate, and you are my only successor. I can pass on this Primordial Spirit Technique to you. However, listen well, my technique is not for the mediocre. I don’t mind if you pass it to others, but it cannot be transmitted to anyone under thirty who cannot condense their own primordial spirit!"

The Shadowless Sword Emperor glanced at Jian Cangqiong and the others, speaking solemnly.

The expressions of Jian Cangqiong and the others changed, and they forced a bitter smile.

Condensing one’s own primordial spirit is only possible for ordinary cultivators at the Unity Realm Stage, even those at the Void Refinement Realm can only form an illusory shadow.

"Yes!"

Jiang Chen respectfully bowed to the Shadowless Sword Emperor.

"Young man, I hope you do not bring shame upon this technique!"

Crash!

Without any unnecessary words, after giving his final instructions, the body of the Shadowless Sword Emperor dissipated, leaving only a streak of bloody radiance which rushed into Jiang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness.

"Young man, the Saint Severing Slash, with great power, can sever Saints, even the Saint Monarch, depending on how you cultivate it.

I see that your primordial spirit is extremely refined, and you also possess the intense Blood Fiend Force. If you can fully merge your primordial spirit with this Blood Fiend Force, severing a Saint is no longer a concern!

Remember! You are my student, the disciple of the Shadowless Sword Emperor. Although you did not wish to join another sect, I do not blame you, but I am even more delighted!

In my life, I never accepted a disciple, but after I died, I accepted you as my only student, so you cannot bring shame to me. I was invincible in my realm, and you must achieve the same.

I know you have always done so before, but I hope you continue on this path, at least until you reach the Integration Realm Peak.

Because I achieved it, my student must achieve it too!"

A voice echoed in his mind.

"Yes! I will surely achieve it as your student!"

Came the reply from Jiang Chen amidst the words.

Crash!

A flash of bloody light appeared, and a technique emerged in the Sea of Consciousness, followed by the dispersal of a mysterious wave.

Jiang Chen’s eyes were slightly wet, he looked up at the sky, clasped his fists and shouted, "Farewell, Teacher!"

"Farewell to the Shadowless Sword Emperor!"

"Farewell to the Shadowless Sword Emperor!"

Jian Cangqiong and the others immediately understood and solemnly looked up, clasping their fists and shouting loudly.

At this moment, the strongest in the Mingqian Realm, the Shadowless Sword Emperor, had completely fallen!

Boom!

Simultaneously, a loud sound erupted, and a golden light swiftly descended from high above, stopping by Jiang Chen and the others.

The golden light scattered, revealing Jin Ang’s figure.

"Alas! It’s a pity not to have met such a genius!"

Jin Ang sighed softly, his eyes full of regret.

At this moment he was covered in blood, his face pale, his breath uneven, clearly showing evidence of a particularly fierce battle!

"Senior Jin, Lucifer might have something in his body..." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Jiang Chen’s expression changed and he spoke quickly.

"Worry leads to confusion, Mr. Jiang, you also obtained a source fire from the Golden Devouring Flame!"

Jin Ang chuckled and said.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, then relieved.

The Golden Devouring Flame is much like Long Yan, both are nemeses of primordial spirits!

"Greetings to both seniors, I am Jian Cangqiong, the Dean of Changlin Academy. Thank you for coming to our rescue!"

Jian Cangqiong bowed to Jin Ang and Jin Ming.

Jin Ang waved his hand and said indifferently, "We are here to support Mr. Jiang, as for Changlin Academy, its survival is irrelevant to us!"

Jian Cangqiong was slightly taken aback but smiled nonchalantly, not minding.

"Thank you, Senior Jin and Great Elder!"

Jiang Chen bowed to express his gratitude.

"Mr. Jiang, our clan has already sealed the space. The Clan Leader has ordered us to accompany you to Canglan City to participate in the competition until the grand competition among the realms arrives."

Jin Ang chuckled and looked at Jiang Chen: "Along the way, if Mr. Jiang has any questions, feel free to ask us. We in the Gold-devouring Rat Clan have some research on primordial spirits."

"Thank you!"

Jiang Chen was overjoyed and thanked him once more.

"The Gold-devouring Rat Clan!?"

"Gold..."

Jian Cangqiong and the others were surprised, looking at Jin Ang and Jin Ming.

Jin Ang and Jin Ming ignored them and just looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen turned to Jian Cangqiong and the others: "Teachers and seniors, I’ll explain this later. Please first reassure the students, is the cabin at Southern Maniac Mountain still there?"

"It is!"

Tong Hai nodded, now one of the four Great Elders of Changlin Academy: "Since you and your companions left, we three brothers... moved into Southern Maniac Mountain as acting elders, the cabins at the peak are still kept, we reside at the mountainside!"

"Thank you, senior!"

Jiang Chen thanked him, sensing the hesitation in Tong Hai’s words, glanced around but did not see Tong Hu, and immediately understood: "Condolences!"

"Haha, cultivators follow the path, who doesn’t die!"

Tong Hai laughed heartily, but the sadness in his eyes did not diminish.

"Jiang Chen, you take the two seniors to rest at Southern Maniac Mountain, and we will come later!"

Jian Cangqiong said softly.

"Alright!"

Jiang Chen nodded, then turned to Jin Ming and Jin Ang: "Senior Jin and Great Elder, let me show you where I used to stay at the academy."

"Alright!"

Jin Ming and Jin Ang nodded.

Jian Cangqiong decisively took out a talisman, handing it over to Yan Hu, who had silently stood by Jiang Chen since his disengagement from battle.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The four of them soared towards Southern Maniac Mountain.

"Thank you, seniors! Thank you, Senior Jiang!"

"Thank you, Junior Jiang!"

Voices of gratitude echoed from below.

Jiang Chen paused slightly, hovering and looking down at everyone, with a slight curve of the mouth: "Everyone, Jiang Chen will always be part of Changlin Academy, it will never change in this life!"

After a pause, Jiang Chen continued: "Later, I’d like to invite the five heads of the Five Elements Academy to Southern Maniac Mountain to receive some gifts for the elders, instructors, and students."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen wasted no more time and headed towards Southern Maniac Mountain.

"Gifts?"

"What gifts?"

"Senior Jiang’s gifts, how exciting!"

The students’ eyes lit up, murmuring in low voices.

Jian Cangqiong and the others had a look of relief in their eyes, as Jiang Chen’s intention to give gifts to everyone was likely something that could help them enhance their strength.

With this in mind, they exchanged glances, all with a sense of relief in their eyes.
