Chapter 1 Opportunity Arrives, the Battle for the Top Ten Begins

With opportunities in hand, the various prodigies continued on with the competition, and the battle for the top ten officially began.

And just as the God Realm First Martial Meet was being held in full swing, within the Asura Road, Jiang Xuan's clone also encountered some trouble.

Within the Asura Road, there were many great Tianzun-level (Heavenly Lord) powers. In the past, the Soul Race had also established two great divine kingdoms within the Asura Road, namely the Divine Void and Divine Illusory Divine Kingdoms. However, the difference was that the Divine Illusory Tianzun of the Divine Illusory Divine Kingdom mysteriously disappeared, eventually leading to its decline.

As for the ruler of the Divine Void Divine Kingdom, he had crossed the boundary of Tianzun and become a True God. The current Divine Void Divine Kingdom held an extremely high position within the Asura Road, and even transcendent forces like the Divine Inscription Master Guild were unwilling to antagonize it.

Now, within the Asura Road, Soul Race martial artists originating from the Divine Void Divine Kingdom were like imperial relatives from the capital city's imperial family compared to ordinary disciples of large families in the capital. Their status was clearly a level higher and could not be judged by ordinary standards.

Of course, Jiang Xuan also knew some other secrets. For example, millions of years ago, the current Divine Void Kingdom Ruler once had a brother, who was the Divine Illusory Tianzun. At that time, the Divine Illusory Tianzun was even stronger and had become a top-tier Tianzun early on. However, later, for some reason, he was hunted down by his older brother, the Divine Void Tianzun, who was now the Divine Void Divine Kingdom Ruler, and forced to enter the Valley of Wrongful Death within the Asura Road.

Afterwards, the Divine Illusory Tianzun was trapped in the Valley of Wrongful Death for millions of years before encountering Lin Ming, thus finding an opportunity to escape from it.

Of course, that was already a matter of the distant past. Although Jiang Xuan knew that the Divine Illusory Tianzun was trapped in the Valley of Wrongful Death, he had no intention of saving him. Firstly, it would not benefit him, and secondly, he did not have the time to deal with such matters.

Originally, that was indeed what he thought, but unfortunately, he didn't seek trouble, yet trouble came seeking him.

Now, Jiang Xuan was already a seventh-grade Divine Inscription Master of the Divine Inscription Master Guild, and also held the position of Vice President. This was not surprising. Anyone who became a seventh-grade Divine Inscription Master, if they intended to join the Divine Inscription Master Guild, would be given the title of Vice President.

Of course, this did not mean that the position of Vice President was rampant. Throughout the entire Divine Inscription Master Guild, there were no more than ten people who had reached the realm of seventh-grade Divine Inscription Master, and several of them were not fully integrated into the Divine Inscription Master Guild, merely serving as honorary elders of the Guild.

Those who truly held the position of Vice President, including Jiang Xuan, numbered only four, and the others were often not in Divine Inscription City.

Currently, the one with the highest status in the entire Divine Inscription Master Guild was Jiang Xuan, the one who had joined most recently.

It was precisely because of this position that he was ultimately brought trouble.

All of this had to start with Divine Inscription Arts. The essence of Divine Inscription Arts was actually an inscription art that incorporated the Asura Heavenly Dao. It was a special manifestation of the Asura Road Master's comprehension of the Thirty-Three Heavens Heavenly Dao, and also a kind of rune rule derived from the Asura Road Heavenly Dao.

The Asura Road was inseparable from runes, whether divine runes or primordial qi runes. This was the manifestation of the Asura Road's laws.

In terms of inscription art level alone, the Divine Void Divine Kingdom could not compare to the Divine Inscription Master Guild. However, in terms of understanding the Asura Heavenly Dao, the Divine Void Divine Kingdom, with a True God presiding over it, surpassed the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

It was precisely by relying on this point that the Divine Void Divine Kingdom dared to claim that they were not inferior to the Divine Inscription Master Guild in terms of Divine Inscription Master experts. In fact, this was indeed the case. The famous Divine Inscription Art experts within the Divine Void Divine Kingdom were even no weaker than the current Guild Master of the Divine Inscription Master Guild.

Therefore, these two major forces seemed to be at peace on the surface, but in reality, there was no lack of secret struggles.

After Jiang Xuan joined the Divine Inscription Master Guild, he also received invitations from the Divine Void Divine Kingdom multiple times. Such blatant poaching was definitely not uncommon in the past countless years.

However, for Jiang Xuan, all he needed was a place to comprehend Divine Inscription Arts. As for the struggle between forces, he had no interest in it and no intention to get involved. Therefore, he directly refused every time.

But this also brought him a lot of trouble. For example, now, a seventh-grade Divine Inscription Master from the Divine Void Divine Kingdom had personally come to compete with Jiang Xuan.

Moreover, Jiang Xuan felt that this was definitely not the last one. As long as he won the first one, there would definitely be more people coming to challenge him later. It was impossible to avoid it even if he wanted to. Gu

Furthermore, the Divine Void Divine Kingdom had a True God presiding over it, and might not be unconnected to the Soul Race from the outside world. Although Jiang Xuan was not afraid of the Divine Void Kingdom Ruler, he did not want to stir up trouble.

If the Soul Race's Soul Emperor was prepared in advance, or if the calamity of the Dark Abyss descended prematurely, it would be a great loss.

Therefore, Jiang Xuan really had to accept this competition, and he could not lose too much, otherwise the Divine Void Divine Kingdom would definitely spread rumors and create trouble.

After all, Jiang Xuan did not think that there could be many sensible good people under the command of a cultivator who would even hunt down his own younger brother.

"Master, Divine Inscription Master Fu Xian from the Divine Void Divine Kingdom has already left the Divine Kingdom and will arrive at Divine Inscription City in three days." Before Jiang Xuan, a woman's green hair fluttered in the wind, and her bright pupils were actually light red, like a blood moon in the sky. Her mouth carried a smile, revealing a hint of妖邪 (yāoxié - demonic, evil) intent. She was beautiful, yet gave people an incomparably dangerous feeling.

She was precisely Mu Lingyue. Jiang Xuan's 《苍穹霸典》 (Cang Qiong Ba Dian - Azure Skies Overlord Canon) second half was obtained from her hands. The request she made at that time was to become a disciple of Jiang Xuan and cultivate with him.

Jiang Xuan also gave her a chance, setting up several tests. Although they were difficult, Mu Lingyue carried a blood feud, which was also the driving force that supported her continuous cultivation and advancement. In the end, she spent a great deal of effort and finally completed the tests set by Jiang Xuan, becoming a disciple of Jiang Xuan.

"Mm, I know, inform Master Su and the others, prepare to welcome Divine Inscription Master Fu Xian," Jiang Xuan instructed. Since he couldn't avoid it anyway, he simply didn't hide. It was a good opportunity to test his current level of Divine Inscription Arts.

"Yes," Mu Lingyue said respectfully. Jiang Xuan had helped her a lot. In the past, she had lived in anonymity, training herself in the Asura Road, and eventually becoming one of the leader of the Tianluo organization killers, all because of Tian Mingzi.

In the past, Tian Mingzi had caused her family to be destroyed, and even her elder sister had ultimately "died and her Dao dissipated." Therefore, she wanted revenge, but according to her understanding, Tian Mingzi had already reached the Great World King realm. With her current strength, she was not his opponent at all.

But it was precisely at this time that Jiang Xuan sent someone to find her, telling her that he was willing to trade the 《苍穹霸典》 (Cang Qiong Ba Dian - Azure Skies Overlord Canon) with her. At that moment, she immediately decided.

She wanted to become a Tianzun disciple. Only by becoming a Tianzun disciple could she come into contact with higher-level martial arts, obtain guidance from stronger individuals, progress faster, and seek revenge on Tian Mingzi.

Therefore, she proposed that condition that changed her life, and eventually successfully completed the test left by Jiang Xuan, becoming Jiang Xuan's disciple.

After that, Jiang Xuan truly regarded her as his disciple, and taught her supreme divine martial arts, and also the supreme divine martial arts of both the Dharma and Body paths, which were exactly suitable for her cultivation.

At the same time, in these decades, under Jiang Xuan's guidance, her progress was also extraordinary. Although she had not yet become a Great World King, her strength was definitely not weaker than an ordinary Great World King. Even against Tian Mingzi, she dared to confront him.

If she added some of the trump cards that Jiang Xuan had given her, she might not be able to kill Tian Mingzi.

"By the way, after this competition, I will send you to the God Realm. Go and bring your fellow disciples into the Asura Road," Jiang Xuan said to Mu Lingyue. He could see that Mu Lingyue had always held hatred in her heart. This was also a good opportunity for her to go to the God Realm and completely resolve the matter of Tian Mingzi.

"Fellow disciples?" Mu Lingyue was stunned. She had never heard that Jiang Xuan had other disciples, and that they were in the God Realm.

"That's right," Jiang Xuan smiled, "Besides you, I have three other disciples, two of whom are your senior brothers, and one is your junior brother. However, their strength is not as good as yours. This time, you will bring them to the Asura Road, which can be considered a training for them."

When Mu Lingyue was accepted as a disciple, Ling Yu and another disciple, Xuan Yun, had already become disciples of Jiang Xuan. Therefore, although Mu Lingyue's strength was stronger, she was only the third disciple under Jiang Xuan.

"Two senior brothers, one junior brother?" The corners of Mu Lingyue's mouth curled into an arc, and her eyes were full of curiosity. She also wanted to know what Jiang Xuan's disciples in the God Realm would be like.
