9: Chapter 9: Unparalleled dominance and shocking changes!

In the clouds, the white-haired Elder, while shocked by the talent Jiang Xuan displayed, suddenly felt an evil aura. "This is...? The Demon Race's Soul-Devouring Great Art!" A hint of solemnity flashed in the Elder's eyes.

On the high platform, Elder Chen Fan suddenly received a voice transmission in his ear, and his expression immediately changed drastically, looking at Jiang Xuan with killing intent.

"So it was him." Afterwards, he adjusted his emotions, and his face returned to its previous appearance, as if nothing had happened.

The pillar of light in the Nine-Colored Stone had returned to normal, and the scene once again became quiet. However, the hearts of those present could not be calmed for a long time; the scene just now was too shocking.

Jiang Xuan looked at the Nine-Colored Stone in front of him with a strange expression. "It seems this isn't my limit yet."

He always felt that the reason it lit up with nine colors was because its highest Rank was only nine colors. If he used a higher-Rank one, perhaps it could light up even more.

"Hahahahaha!" A loud laugh broke the silence. Chen Fan walked over to Jiang Xuan, laughing heartily.

"Young Master, your talent is extraordinary, one in a million, one could say. From today onwards, you are the Hegemon Sect's First Disciple.

In the future, the position of Sect Master of my Hegemon Sect will be yours." After speaking, his eyes turned cold, and his hands reached out to grab Jiang Xuan's shoulders.

Jiang Xuan tapped his foot and instantly vanished from his original spot, reappearing a few meters away.

He looked at Chen Fan with a playful glint in his eyes, mocking, "Alright, stop acting. Tell those few behind you to come out too. You alone can't do anything to This Young Master."

Everyone around was dumbfounded. How did he get into a fight with the Elder again in the blink of an eye?

"Clap, clap, clap." A round of applause came from the front. In the air above the Hegemon Sect, eight figures had appeared at some unknown time. There were men and women, all exuding powerful auras.

Especially the leader in the middle, who was the most unfathomable. All eight looked down at Jiang Xuan, their expressions icy cold.

"What's going on? Void Realm, those few people, they are all in the Qi Sea Realm! Could they be the Hegemon Sect's renowned Elders?"

"Greetings, Sect Master! Greetings, Elders!" The Hegemon Sect Disciples instantly knelt on the ground to pay their respects.

"Hiss~ Sect Master, is that person in the middle Sect Master Lu Yuan? I heard he's someone who has one foot in the Spirit Infant Realm.

It's just, why does he look so strange? His lips are black, and his eyelids are red," someone in the crowd wondered.

Lu Yuan flew forward, his tone filled with emotion, "Jiang Xuan, I have to say, you are the most Prodigy person I have ever seen. Given time, you will surely shake the continent.

To be honest, if I had known you were such a Prodigy earlier, perhaps I wouldn't have instigated Ziming to dig out your Spirit Bone through Cheng Yuan. Instead, I would have tried my best to befriend you. Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs' in this world."

"You and my Hegemon Sect are already mortal enemies. If I let you grow for a few more years, my Hegemon Sect will definitely be destroyed by your hands. Therefore, for the sake of my Hegemon Sect, today, you must die."

"I know your combat power is unmatched, and Elder Li Wuji died by your hand.

However, no matter how powerful you are, can you withstand the combined efforts of us few? If you know what's good for you, surrender quickly, and I'll let you die a quick death!"

The people participating in the assessment around them were already stunned. "Does anyone know who this person is? Jiang Xuan? Never heard of him."

"I've heard a little. It seems he's the Young Clan Leader of the Jiang Family in Qinglin City, a sixteen-year-old Qi Sea Realm Great Perfection cultivator. Not long ago, he even annihilated the other Three Great Families, who were also among the Four Great Families, and even killed Elder Li Wuji."

"Right, right. Now that you mention it, I think I heard my Family mention it too. At first, I thought someone was spreading rumors, but who would have thought it was actually true?"

Liu Yong had already woken up when Jiang Xuan tested his talent. Listening to the discussions around him, a hint of lingering fear flashed across his face. "Is he that Jiang Xuan? Those legends are actually true."

"Good thing I didn't form too deep a grudge with him; otherwise, my entire Family wouldn't be enough for him to kill." He swore that if he ever encountered Jiang Xuan again, he would immediately hide far away.

Jiang Xuan's eyes were icy cold, and he said sharply, "You want me to die? Just with you bunch of trash?

"After speaking, Spiritual Qi surged around him, and an extremely strong pressure instantly pressed towards Lu Yuan and the others: "Get down here, This Young Master!"

"Boom!!" A roar of Spiritual Qi echoed in the air. Lu Yuan and the others felt as if tens of thousands of pounds of immense force were pressing down on them, like giant waves fiercely slamming them towards the ground.

The surrounding buildings instantly collapsed, trees were uprooted, and some Hegemon Sect Disciples who were closer were even sent flying backward under the pressure, bleeding from all seven orifices.

"How is this possible? We're all in the Qi Sea Realm, how can the gap be so huge!" Lu Yuan and the others half-knelt in the air, their eyes filled with disbelief. They struggled to resist, and blood had already begun to seep from the corners of their mouths.

"No, I can't hold on!" A short Elder could no longer resist, letting out an unwilling roar, and his body fell from the sky.

The defenses of the few instantly lost balance. One, two... Before long, including Lu Yuan, all of them were pressed to the ground, unable to move.

At this moment, Jiang Xuan retracted his pressure, slowly rising into the air, looking down at Lu Yuan and the others.

"Standing so high, making This Young Master look up at you, do you even deserve it? Is that a position you can stand in? All of you, lie down!"

After speaking, he clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping around, his tone incomparably domineering, "Today, I, Jiang Xuan, intend to annihilate the Hegemon Sect here. Those not involved, quickly retreat, otherwise, do not blame This Young Master for being merciless!"

"Swish, swish, swish." In the crowd, those few people from Qinglin City took off running, wishing they had two more legs. They had guessed correctly; Jiang Xuan was here to cause trouble.

Knowing Jiang Xuan's character, they had wanted to leave long ago, but Jiang Xuan hadn't spoken, so they didn't dare to move. With a few people taking the lead, those who came for the assessment also rushed towards the mountain gate.

Although they also wanted to stay and watch Jiang Xuan unleash his Divine Might, their own lives were more important.

Instantly, only the people of the Hegemon Sect remained on the scene.

The Elder in the clouds stroked his grizzled beard and nodded slightly, "This Young Master is a restless one, but he suits This Old Man's taste. Moreover, he is clear about grievances and does not kill indiscriminately. Not bad."

"Hehe, a Rank Nine talent, the entire Great Li Dynasty doesn't have one. Now, let's see how those old fellows from the other prefectures contend with me, hmph hmph."

Below, the Hegemon Sect Disciples were all flustered. They looked at their Sect Master with expectant eyes, hoping for a miracle.

Lu Yuan's eyes widened in anger, his black lips trembling, "Jiang Xuan, do you think you've won? I'm telling you, my son Lu Ziming has already been accepted as a Disciple by Sir Situ, a teacher in the Inner Courtyard of Donglin Prefecture's Martial Dao Academy.

That Elder is a Spirit Connection mighty expert! If you dare to destroy my Hegemon Sect, he will definitely not let you go. At that time, you won't escape death either!"

Jiang Xuan's expression was icy cold, his tone chilling, "Forget Spirit Connection, today, even if the King of Heaven came, your Hegemon Sect is destined to be destroyed!"

After speaking, crimson Spiritual Qi surged around him, and the crimson Dragon in his Qi Sea continuously churned and roared. Jiang Xuan clenched his single hand into a fist.

A colossal Spiritual Qi fist gathered above, runes swirling around it, exuding terrifying fluctuations. "Go!" With a loud shout, it instantly descended towards Lu Yuan and the others.

The faces of the few changed drastically. Feeling the terrifying power contained within the fist, they didn't even have a thought of resistance, only able to wait for death where they stood.

"Jiang Xuan, you forced my hand! Sir, I am willing to sacrifice myself, I only ask that you help me kill the person in front of me." At this moment, Lu Yuan's expression was furious and resolute.

"Alright," As an evil voice sounded, Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly turned pitch black, and a violent, evil aura emanated from his entire body.

Jiang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "Exactly the same aura as Wu Si just now. Finally decided to come out, have you?"
