Chapter 1459: Jialan City

Xiao Hua, Long Kun, and Ling Yao had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Xu Yang return safe and sound filled them with joy.

"Boss, hurry and tell us what secrets are hidden in the First Saint's exclusive space. If you hadn't gone in ahead of us, we would have been eager to rush in ourselves and see what was there."

Xu Yang naturally held nothing back from these three comrades who had been through thick and thin with him. He openly shared every clue he had found in the First Saint's exclusive space.

"Holy moly, is that true? Law fragments are sealed in the First Saint's exclusive space? But Boss, have you considered that these Saints directly provide spiritual energy to the Supreme God? The First Saint's exclusive space is incredibly important, and the Supreme God's will must be paying close attention to everything inside. Aren't you afraid of prematurely alerting the Supreme God's will of the Heavenly Eye Divine Path by simply devouring all those law fragments?"

Xu Yang gently shook his head. "If I hadn't taken precautions, alarming the Supreme God's will would have been inevitable. But I used my phantom body to perfectly conceal my soul's aura. I'm also absolutely certain that the Supreme God's will wasn't alarmed because his cultivation level and strength haven't surpassed mine. He holds no advantage over me and thus couldn't see through the methods I employed."

After Xu Yang's explanation, everyone nodded, completely convinced. They knew all too well the extent of their boss's strength.

Moreover, Xu Yang now controls the supreme divine artifact of the Reincarnation Seal Angel lineage. In terms of overall strength, he fears no opponent. The mere will of a Supreme God might sound daunting, but it's nothing to Xu Yang.

The current issue isn't that the Supreme God's consciousness could threaten Xu Yang. Rather, Xu Yang lacked the absolute certainty to completely eliminate all Supreme Gods in a single strike. This is why he had to devise a more long-term strategy.

It wasn't that he couldn't defeat them; he simply lacked absolute certainty. This stable approach of strategizing for guaranteed victory perfectly suited Xu Yang's character. He never fought a battle without complete assurance, which naturally allowed him to remain undefeated throughout his life.

This was the necessary prerequisite for Xu Yang to become the greatest figure of all time, an eternal monument. For him, the word "failure" could never appear in his life.

Whether his opponent was a powerful law or a terrifying life form, as long as they dared to stand against Xu Yang as his enemy, they would all meet the same end.

"Alright, all our campaigns within the Heavenly Eye Divine Path are now concluded. Each of you has also begun to bind your aura with the Supreme God's will of the Heavenly Eye Divine Path. This makes you our most important hidden assets in this strategy. If we are to contend against all the Supreme Gods on the entire continent in the future, your current saintly aura will be our most crucial hidden advantage."

Long Kun burst out laughing. "So Boss, what are our next plans? Should we leave the Heavenly Eye Divine Path's vicinity immediately?"

Xu Yang gently shook his head. "No rush. Let's travel around the Heavenly Eye Divine Path for a while; consider it a vacation for you all. After all, this journey of campaigns has been incredibly busy. It's good to release some stress when appropriate, which will also help your future cultivation. Also, during this time, we should give those two youngsters a chance. If they can complete the riddle challenge I left for them and successfully join our team, that would be a great outcome."

Xiao Hua smiled. "I knew you wouldn't give up on those two promising talents so easily. I also hope they can successfully pass your test. After all, our team needs new members and fresh energy; otherwise, this journey will truly be dull."

Xu Yang chuckled in response. "Boring is definitely not an option. From what I've gathered from the law fragments, there are significant differences in civilization between the major divine path regions. This means that each divine path space will be a completely new, independent mini-world for us to explore, with entirely different civilizations. Therefore, I have a premonition that our journey to other divine path regions will be filled with more excitement and many unforeseen opportunities. These experiences will be greatly beneficial for enhancing our power. Don't think you're strong enough yet; in unknown systems, even I wouldn't dare claim to be invincible. Our greatest reliance right now is our perfect mastery of spacetime laws, which allows us to retreat safely and protect ourselves even when encountering unknown forces in critical moments. However, this doesn't mean that spacetime laws alone can destroy all opponents. You're all familiar with the Eternal Sword Dao I cultivate; it can completely ignore the power of spacetime laws. I believe that in subsequent divine path regions, you will encounter eternal power with similar properties, and that will be your greatest counter to opponents."

Hearing Xu Yang's reminder, Ling Yao and the other two gradually calmed their restless hearts. They had indeed been feeling a bit too confident.

Their confidence had soared, especially after their recent sweep through the Heavenly Eye Divine Path's temple, where they challenged and secured spots among the top ten percent of the hundred saint seats.

But in reality, as Xu Yang stated, their strength was far from perfectly mastered. There was no end to their growth; only the potential for their progress to halt one day. Yet, in Xu Yang's view, as long as one's life continued, so too should their cultivation. This was the resilient spirit a true powerhouse ought to possess.

In the blink of an eye, the group of four left the most solemn divine city of the Heavenly Eye Divine Path, heading toward Jialan City, the outermost border city within the Heavenly Eye Divine Path region.

This city was a city-state of paramount military importance within the Heavenly Eye Divine Path region, and one of its five most renowned strategic strongholds. This was because it connected to the Kunlun Divine Path in the south.

The Kunlun Divine Path had always been one of the top three supreme legacies among all divine path regions in the Great World. Its comprehensive strength virtually overwhelmed that of the Heavenly Eye Divine Path.

Were it not for the pact of peace, development, and non-aggression signed between the wills of their Supreme Gods, the Kunlun Divine Path's power would have long since completely absorbed its neighbor, the Heavenly Eye Divine Path.

Even with the pact in place, Jialan City, serving as the outer border between the two divine path regions, was a frequent site of various skirmishes. Undoubtedly, this city-state housed a significant number of the Heavenly Eye Divine Path's most skilled and combat-ready cultivators.

The arrival of Xu Yang and his group of four might even bring some more unexpected elements of surprise to the city.
