Destined Antagonist: I Refuse To Annul The Engagement!

The two geniuses' eyelids twitched, their hearts already consumed by fear.

They were well aware of Jiang Xuan's strength. Although they were both at the mid-stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, they could barely suppress Jiang Xuan when they joined forces.

In other words, even someone as strong as Jiang Xuan had no power to fight back against Jiang Xuan and was mercilessly crushed.

The result would be the same for the two of them.

In fact, they might even die faster.

They glanced at each other and the two geniuses struggled to speak, their trembling bodies making it difficult, "We... we... only hope that Senior Jiang can spare our lives..."

"You are not worthy to negotiate with me."

A cold voice sounded, and Jiang Xuan had already turned into a divine light, flashing in front of the two of them. With one hand each, he grabbed their necks.

"Crack!"

With the crisp sound of bones breaking, the vitality of the two geniuses rapidly faded away in Jiang Xuan's hands.

The profound and mysterious Dao circulated in his palm, forcefully invading their sea of consciousness, tearing apart their souls, and reading their memories.

Soul-searching!

After a moment, a deep and profound cold light flashed in Jiang Xuan's eyes.

"Jiang Qiankun..."

He raised his eyes slightly and looked towards the sky, where the projection of the light curtain recorded the points of all the geniuses.

In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Qiankun had already obtained sixty-two points, temporarily ranking first.

Jiang Haoming with fifty-six points, Jiang Feng with fifty-three points, and Jiang Bei with forty-nine points followed closely behind.

Jiang Xuan's eyes deepened, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. Then he turned around and flew towards the central area at high speed.

Half an hour later.

Jiang Xuan's figure appeared above the ten-thousand-foot gorge in the center of the wasteland.

Clusters of eerie black mist floated like flowing water, enveloping the gorge, making it impossible for anyone to see the scenery inside the gorge.

Even divine consciousness couldn't penetrate the black mist.

An indescribable aura invaded their minds, heavy and oppressive, as if there was a terrifying horror that couldn't be directly faced inside.

Jiang Xuan frowned, feeling a sense of unease, as if he was being suppressed from a level of life.

Thinking of the records of the True Dragon Egg, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but speculate, "The True Dragon Egg is probably about to hatch..."

Jiang Xuan's heart suddenly burned with excitement. Without hesitation, he directly crossed the black mist and entered the gorge, falling rapidly towards the bottom of the gorge.

"Huh?"

Outside the Great River, standing on the God's Tomb, the Mountain Ancestor noticed this scene and couldn't help but reveal a surprised smile.

"This kid is interesting."

Buzz...

The God's Tomb trembled slightly, and a heavy aura surged out, gradually transforming into a burly figure.

Ancient Ancestor.

The first Body Refining expert of the Jiang family since ancient times.

It is said that the Ancient Ancestor's physical body has already reached the realm of a divine being, tearing apart true gods and easily traversing the galaxy.

"Is this kid lucky, or did he already obtain the secret of the True Dragon Egg in advance?" The Ancient Ancestor's tone carried a hint of surprise and doubt.

The Mountain Ancestor chuckled, "After this kid entered the wasteland, he didn't even kill a single exotic beast. He went straight for the True Dragon Egg. Obviously, he knew in advance."

"But... being able to obtain the secret of the True Dragon Egg is also his luck."

"This is his opportunity."

The Ancient Ancestor raised an eyebrow, pondering, "Could it be... he is the disciple who achieved a bloodline reversion to ninety-five?"

"If that's the case, then we can continue to sleep peacefully and wait for the arrival of the great era."

Since ancient times, the strongest experts of the Jiang family would bury themselves in the God's Tomb at the end of the era, like prisoners, only to contribute their last bit of strength when the Jiang family faced a disaster.

He was like this, and so was the Mountain Ancestor.

Now, they are still in deep sleep, only revealing a trace of their soul consciousness, witnessing the genius of the Jiang family in this generation.

After all... the great era that will sweep through Profound Heaven and even the entire heavens is about to come, and the catastrophe that will engulf the myriad realms will inevitably return.

"It's unlikely," the ancestral mountain gently shook his head and said, "Jiang Xuan's bloodline concentration is only seventy-five, so he obtained the position of a junior lord. If he had the chance to revert his bloodline concentration to ninety-five, he would have done so long ago and it's unlikely to wait until now."

The ancient ancestor's brows slightly furrowed as he looked at the other geniuses who were hunting down the exotic beasts. One by one, he observed their talents and combat power, a hint of disappointment quietly passed through, and he felt worried about the future of the Jiang family.

He sighed lightly and said, "After all, the Celestial Wonders Realm has been silent for so long, it should also revive. The succession of the great dao, the cycle of reincarnation, in this era... is destined to open a new era that will overturn Opening Heaven and change the world."

"These disciples may seem like once-in-a-millennium geniuses, but they are ultimately the inevitable products under the influence of the general trend."

"We have them in the Jiang family, and other forces will naturally have them, even... more."

"Relying solely on these disciples, the future of the Jiang family is worrying!"

The ancestral mountain nodded in agreement, "If our Jiang family wants to remain unshakable in the turbulent times, relying solely on these geniuses is definitely not enough."

"If we want to maintain our position as a long-standing family in Profound Heaven for another million years, we must produce a monstrous talent."

"If we want to go further... we must create an unparalleled talent, invincible in this era."

The ancient ancestor's brows furrowed tightly. After pondering for a moment, he slowly spoke with a hint of uncertainty in his tone, "I heard that the four lords of our Jiang family in this generation all have the potential to achieve enlightenment. If they obtain our inheritance, they will definitely be able to go further. Isn't that enough to be called monstrous talents?"

The ancestral mountain shook his head and smiled, "In the past, it would have been enough."

"But in this era... it's too forced."

"What about the kid who entered the gorge? Since he is one of the four lords, if he can subdue a true dragon, he will surely rise above the rest and be known as a monstrous talent," the ancient ancestor's tone grew slightly heavy.

The ancestral mountain nodded slightly, "If he successfully subdues a true dragon, then naturally."

"But, a true dragon is ultimately just an external object. Aside from Jiang Xuan's bloodline concentration of seventy-five, his physique, talent, and comprehension are not outstanding. Even with the assistance of a true dragon, he is likely to be inferior to those monstrous talents cultivated by the ancient divine sects."

"This..."

The ancient ancestor's face showed a worried expression that couldn't be dispelled. "According to what you're saying, is it inevitable for our Jiang family in this era to face a great calamity?"

The ancestral mountain looked down at the great river, observing the geniuses hunting down the exotic beasts. His profound eyes were as deep as an abyss, and he chuckled, "It's not that hopeless."

"That disciple who has returned to the bloodline up to the age of ninety-five, and that recently born divine bone, both of them possess extraordinary talent. With full cultivation, they have the opportunity to become unparalleled geniuses and dominate the younger generation of Profound Heaven."

"As long as those two grow up successfully, our Jiang family will have a bright future in this generation!"

The ancient ancestor's expression became serious as he nodded solemnly.

The mountain ancestor also nodded, then withdrew his gaze and continued to observe the various young talents in the wasteland, hoping to find the prodigy with the bloodline returning to its roots.

Perhaps the other party is intentionally hiding, to the point that even though he has reached the supreme realm, he still cannot see any clues and cannot lock onto him.

"Does this disciple with the bloodline returning to its roots have some concerns in his heart? Why does he have to hide himself? Otherwise, we wouldn't have to search so desperately."

There was a deep sense of helplessness in his tone.

He didn't hesitate to expend a small amount of his remaining lifeblood to allocate a strand of divine consciousness to oversee this ancestral trial, all for the purpose of finding that disciple with the bloodline returning to its roots, and passing on his inheritance to him, helping him advance further.

Never did he expect that the other party would be so cautious, clearly being in the Jiang family's ancestral land, yet still hiding and concealing himself.

The ancient ancestor couldn't figure out the reason, and after spending a long time searching, he still gained nothing, so he could only temporarily give up.

His gaze once again fell on Jiang Xuan in the gorge, and he jokingly said to the mountain ancestor, "If Jiang Xuan is the one with the bloodline returning to its roots, and he manages to subdue a true dragon, he will definitely be hailed as an unparalleled genius and dominate an era."

"Even if the golden age arrives, he can easily reign supreme!"

The mountain ancestor knew that the ancient ancestor was joking, so he scolded him with a bad temper, "If he really is, I'll crawl out of the divine tomb right now and serve as his bodyguard!"

The ancient ancestor also laughed.

They were buried in the divine tomb to avoid the erosion of time, allowing them to survive until now.

Once they crawl out, the rules of time will take effect, and their lifeblood will quickly diminish. Even if they seal themselves and do nothing, they can only live for a maximum of three months.

They slept in the divine tomb like prisoners, all for the sake of protecting the Jiang family.

It's not for the sake of serving as a bodyguard for a junior.

After all, in every era, the Jiang family will select four young lords.

Having lived for so long, they have seen countless young lords. Among these many young lords, Jiang Xuan is not the most outstanding one.

Even if he has the possibility of subduing a newly hatched true dragon.
