63: Discussing only the Great Dao, a battle between those of the same realm.
Wang Tengxue's words were very soft, but falling into the ears of the crowd, it was as if ten thousand bolts of Purple Heaven True Thunder had exploded.
"The Northern Plains Wang Family Imperial Daughter actually wants to duel the Jiang Family Imperial Son using only the Dao?"
"And the stakes are so high! If she loses, she will be at the mercy of the Jiang Family Imperial Son? This Northern Plains Wang Family Imperial Daughter is too confident in herself!"
"Confident? She has the capital to be confident! Immaculate Body, second on the prodigy list! Legend says she is immune to all Laws, naturally suppressing all flashy Daos!"
"Not to mention she herself has cultivation near the Saint Realm. Although the Jiang Family Imperial Son is also a Saint Body and the Great Dao of Creation is extremely profound, against an Immaculate Body, it is really hard to say who will win!"
Princess Ji Yue looked at Wang Tengxue on the stage, who had an icy temperament yet was peerlessly domineering. Her lively big eyes were filled with complex emotions.
There was jealousy, there was envy, but more than that, it was a heartfelt admiration.
This was a true Prodigy!
Daring to face any challenge directly, using her own Dao to collide with the strongest Dao in this world!
Unfortunately, her Primordial Spirit Body was ultimately just a Dao Body. If it were not for it being extremely special, she might not even have been able to make it onto the heaven and earth golden ranking.
"Imperial Uncle, I think I... understand what a true powerhouse is now." She whispered to Imperial Uncle Yan beside her.
Imperial Uncle Yan also nodded with a grave expression, his eyes filled with wariness as he looked at Wang Tengxue.
"This girl is terrifying. Ji Yue, if you encounter her on the imperial path in the future, remember not to fight her head-on. Avoid her if you can!"
On the other side, Jade Pool Saintess Qin Mengyao locked her clear eyes tightly onto Wang Tengxue, her eyes flashing with unprecedented Battle Intent!
As a top Prodigy herself, she could naturally see where Wang Tengxue's strength lay.
Not using mana, not using cultivation, only dueling with the Dao.
This seemed fair, but in reality, it was extremely disadvantageous to Jiang Yuan!
Even if many people didn't know the full story, they could deduce that Jiang Yuan's cultivation likely relied on that extremely special Innate Fertility Saint Body to be forcibly pushed from a Mortal to the 6th Realm in just one month!
His Foundation must be unstable!
His comprehension of the Dao could not possibly compare to a peerless Prodigy like Wang Tengxue, who had cultivated step by step since childhood!
Wang Tengxue was using her strengths to attack Jiang Yuan's weaknesses!
Inside the Jiang Family's Deliberation Hall, facing Wang Tengxue's sudden challenge, some were nervous, but most didn't care.
Just as the First Ancestor said, everything would be decided by Jiang Yuan himself.
If he lost, they, the old guys, would cover for him.
If he won, Jiang Yuan would be the undisputed number one of the younger generation!
Either way, they wouldn't lose out.
If Jiang Yuan didn't want to accept, they cared even less.
... ... On the Dao Discussion Platform, Jiang Yuan looked at the battle-ready Wang Tengxue before him, feeling a surge of heat in his heart.
He knew everyone thought he would lose.
After all, his fast-tracked 6th Realm cultivation could not possibly compare to Wang Tengxue in terms of "Dao" comprehension.
But that was a quarter of an hour ago.
If he hadn't received Liu Shenyin's 'Fairy Spirit of the Zither', and the parsing progress of the "Primordial Chaos Creation Art" hadn't skyrocketed, he might not have accepted this challenge.
But now... With the Fairy Spirit of the Zither before, the Nine Orifices Exquisite Heart after, and the Primordial Chaos Creation Art and Innate Fertility Saint Body in between, he was confident that his Dao comprehension was not inferior to anyone.
Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Yuan spoke slowly, his voice not loud, but filled with endless confidence and dominance.
"Logically speaking," "An Imperial Daughter of the Northern Plains Wang Family of your level does not yet have the qualifications to challenge This Imperial Son," "But to let you recognize reality," "This Imperial Son can accept your challenge."
Arrogant.
Jiang Yuan's words were filled with extreme arrogance.
If even an Imperial Daughter with the bearing of a great emperor wasn't qualified, then who was?
In his words, it seemed as if no one in the whole world had that qualification!
Even with Wang Tengxue's state of mind, when she heard such arrogant words, a trace of anger flashed in her cold eyes.
She, Wang Tengxue, had been a Heavens Proud Daughter since birth, the only hope for the Northern Plains Wang Family for ages, hailed as having the bearing of a great emperor!
She had come all this way, sweeping through her peers, never having tasted defeat!
However, after a brief moment of anger, she quickly calmed down, her cold eyes returning to a state of stillness.
She looked at Jiang Yuan. "Then let us begin." "Good."
On the Dao Discussion Platform, as the wager was established, the atmosphere instantly became tense!
An invisible momentum clashed and surged crazily between the two!
"Please." Wang Tengxue made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Yuan.
"Ladies first." Jiang Yuan smiled and signaled for her to go first.
Wang Tengxue did not stand on ceremony. She took a deep breath, and her cold eyes slowly closed.
Hum— The next second, a white divine light, even purer and more flawless than before, erupted from her body!
That divine light seemed to be condensed from the purest Dao in the world, containing not a single trace of Impurities.
Enveloped in the divine light, Wang Tengxue's entire being seemed to become illusory, as if she were about to merge completely with this world.
A supreme Dao rhythm of "immunity to all Laws, dispelling all evil" swept out in all directions with her as the center!
Although the Jiang Family experts acted quickly to isolate the space, some Heavens Proud Daughters who were close by felt their own Daos being uncontrollably repelled and purified the moment they came into contact with this Dao rhythm!
Their Daos seemed to turn into the dirtiest, most filthy existences in this world, wishing they could immediately flee from this pure Domain!
Everyone was stunned by the strength Wang Tengxue revealed.
They realized the chasm-like gap between the top Prodigies from top-tier forces and themselves, the Prodigies from super-grade and first-grade forces!
As for Jiang Yuan, as the primary target of this Immaculate Dao rhythm, the pressure he felt was unimaginable.
He felt as if he were placed in an absolutely pure vacuum Domain.
Here, there were no Laws, no Daos, and even the most basic Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was completely repelled!
The Great Dao of Creation within his body, that power filled with the aura of life and procreation, appeared so out of place in this pure Domain, like a single candle flame in the darkness, ready to be swallowed by this endless pure white at any moment!
"Is this the Immaculate Body?" Jiang Yuan's eyes became unprecedentedly grave.
He felt real pressure! Not in terms of Realm, but on the Dao. This woman was indeed very strong!
Jiang Yuan took a deep breath, and his deep eyes ignited with raging Battle Intent!
Relying on the Family was great, but sometimes, he also wanted to fight hand-to-hand.
Since mastering his cultivation, he hadn't yet fought with all his might!
