69: Chapter 69: A Hundred Years' Promise
Everyone present felt the Divine Might and immediately exclaimed, "Oh my god, this is Saint's Might! A Saint has arrived!"
A Saint is truly an existence that, with a stomp of their foot, the entire Southern Barren Region would tremble. Every Saint is a Dominator of this world, their words become law, and they are indestructible!
"I wonder which Senior from the Holy Land has arrived," the Disciples speculated, their eyes filled with anticipation.
The ten core Elders looked solemn: "I didn't expect to alarm that one."
In the sky, a white-robed figure stepped on the Void Realm, with a slender posture, flowing black hair, and strands of Dao rhythm surrounding him. A faint smile, detached from the world, played on his lips.
"It's the Holy Lord!" the Disciples exclaimed in surprise.
Then, they all bowed in unison, "Greetings, Holy Lord!"
They hadn't expected the Holy Lord to emerge from seclusion. It was usually difficult to even catch a glimpse of him, yet he was alarmed by the commotion here.
The white-robed man nodded slightly, then looked at Jiang Xuan inside the Extreme Dao Tower with an expectant expression, secretly sighing in his heart, "Tens of thousands of years have passed; is my Holy Land finally about to produce a truly invincible Prodigy?"
Jiuli and the others who had come out earlier looked on with envy. Even a Saint had begun to pay attention to Jiang Xuan. From now on, throughout the Southern Barren Region, Jiang Xuan would be one of the most revered individuals.
However, despite their envy, they harbored no jealousy, because Jiang Xuan's talent far surpassed theirs, leaving them with only awe!
Inside the Tower, the two Jiang Xuans, both at the God Transformation Realm, had already battled for thousands of rounds, and their trump cards were almost exhausted.
"It's time to end this!" Jiang Xuan said, looking at the projection opposite him whose spiritual power was dissipating. Then, the chaos stone tablet within him rotated, and a terrifying Divine Sense power pressed down on the opponent.
"I refuse to believe you can still replicate the chaos stone tablet!" As expected, facing this massive Divine Sense attack, the projection was instantly annihilated and vanished into the starry sky.
The portal to the next level reappeared. Jiang Xuan stopped in place, sensing the aura beyond the light gate, and shook his head, "The Dharma Idol Limit is not something I can deal with right now."
Jiang Xuan thought for a moment and did not proceed to the next level. He could kill a Dharma Idol Early Stage, but he could only achieve an undefeated state against an ordinary Dharma Idol Perfection, let alone a Dharma Idol Limit. There was no need to continue. He would try again after his strength Breakthrough in the future.
Thinking this, he was about to speak to give up when, in the starry sky, the figure of a white-haired old man appeared.
"Young friend, wait a moment."
At the same time, the light screen outside suddenly disappeared, and the Artifact Spirit was also gone.
"What's going on? Why is the light screen gone?" everyone wondered. They still wanted to see Jiang Xuan display his Divine Might.
In the Void Realm, the white-robed Holy Lord looked thoughtful, murmuring in his heart, "Do you want to choose him?"
Inside the Tower, Jiang Xuan looked at the old man opposite him strangely. There was actually someone here? He wondered why the other party stopped him.
The old man saw the confusion in Jiang Xuan's Heart-Nature, stroked his gray beard, and said with a smile, "Young friend, you don't need to be confused. I am the Artifact Spirit of this Extreme Dao Tower. Your performance just now, from beginning to end, I saw with my own eyes.
"It's truly breathtaking. It's been many years since I've seen such an outstanding young man."
Jiang Xuan smiled in response, "Senior, you flatter me. May I ask why you stopped this Junior?"
Jiang Xuan was not carried away by the old man's praise. He knew that the other party stopping him would not be as simple as just praising him.
The old man nodded, his appreciation growing even stronger. So young, not only unparalleled in strength, but also so steady in Heart-Nature, truly rare.
"Since young friend says so, then I won't beat around the bush. I have a request, and I hope young friend will grant it."
"Here it comes," Jiang Xuan frowned, knowing that it was nothing good.
"Senior, this Junior is just a small God Transformation Realm cultivator. I'm afraid I can't be of much help." Jiang Xuan neither agreed nor refused.
"Hehe, I'm not asking you to help now. I just hope that when you have the ability in the future, you will come and challenge this Extreme Dao Tower again. As long as you can reach the top of the Tower, there will be an unexpected surprise for you."
"Surprise?" Jiang Xuan pondered in his heart, wondering whether to agree.
Seeing this, the old man smiled, and a ring appeared in the air, "This is your reward for embarking on the path of Extreme Dao."
Jiang Xuan picked up the storage ring in front of him and glanced at it. "Holy cow!"
He immediately widened his eyes and couldn't help but blurt out a curse.
Inside the ring, countless Top-Grade Spirit Stones were piled up like mountains, and numerous Heaven And Earth Treasures were casually placed in the corners. There were even a few glowing precious medicines; just a glance made the spiritual power in his body begin to boil.
"This is... Saint Medicine!" Jiang Xuan was greatly shocked. He had seen it in the System Mall, and its aura was identical to the few plants in front of him.
He quickly put away the ring with astonishing speed, his expression solemn, and patted his chest with a thumping sound, saying solemnly to the old man, "Senior, respecting the old and loving the young is my consistent style. Your business is my business. I'll help with this."
Sorry, integrity, he gave too much... With so many treasures, his Bloodline Realm points would definitely skyrocket. As long as he could improve his strength, Face and everything else were not important.
Moreover, even without the Artifact Spirit's request, he would still come to challenge the Tower in the future, so he might as well help out.
The old man's mouth twitched when he heard Jiang Xuan's words. You didn't say that just now.
Seeing Jiang Xuan agree, the old man instructed, "Young friend, you only have a hundred years. To reach the top of the Tower, you must have the cultivation of a Saint, and moreover, you must be an Extreme Dao Supreme Saint!"
Jiang Xuan pondered slightly, "A hundred years? That's enough."
As long as his limit points were sufficient, he could Breakthrough without any hesitation, without the slightest Bottleneck.
Breaking through to a Saint within a hundred years might be a fantasy for others, but for him, Jiang Xuan, as long as the System issued more tasks, it was entirely possible, and it might not even take a hundred years.
As for the Extreme Dao Supreme Saint, hehe, his limit was even stronger than the Extreme Dao!
Thinking this, he cupped his fists at the old man, "Senior, rest assured, within a hundred years, this Junior will definitely return to the Extreme Dao Tower and reach the top of the Extreme Dao path!"
"Good, then I will wait for young friend here," the old man said with a smile. Then, his body began to become ethereal until he disappeared.
In the starry sky, the gate to the outside world had also opened. Jiang Xuan no longer hesitated and stepped in.
Outside, a light shone on the twenty-sixth floor, and a white light gate appeared. Jiang Xuan's figure walked out from it.
"Finally out," he stretched, quite tired after fighting for so long inside.
He looked around, "Holy cow! What's going on?"
Hundreds of thousands of eyes were all staring at him, the men with admiration, the women with adoration. Jiang Xuan touched his nose, his tone sheepish, "Did I make too much of a commotion?"
Just then, nine figures instantly appeared in front of Jiang Xuan, all middle-aged men and old men, with only one appearing as a young woman.
Their eyes burned as they looked at Jiang Xuan, as if looking at a rare treasure!
