Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!

Jiang Chen's body began trembling once again.

Rays of golden radiance and bloody radiance emerged from within his body, intertwining around him. A gray and hazy strand of Soul Power emanated from his brow, linking the two radiances together.

Whir! Whir! Whir!

Holy Light surged within Jiang Chen's body once more, immediately enveloping the tri-colored radiance.

Roar!

A dragon's roar echoed from within Jiang Chen's body.

Buzz!

Golden Radiance, Bloody Radiance, Soul Power, Holy Light—these four forces began aligning under the influence of the dragon's roar, as if soldiers obeying the command of their general and assembling into formation.

At the top was Soul Power. Golden Radiance and Bloody Radiance contended briefly, with Bloody Radiance begrudgingly settling in third place, and Golden Radiance taking second. Meanwhile, Holy Light remained at the bottom, entirely devoid of competitive intent.

The sight of the forces' arrangement caused the Pope's pupils to contract, his expression shifting drastically!

This wasn't merely a competition between four forces; it represented a contention between the entities behind those forces.

But now, with Holy Light not even attempting to vie for supremacy, what did this imply? The Pope knew clearly in his heart. It didn't mean that the entity represented by Holy Light had yielded; rather, it indicated that the tier of Holy Light's power paled in comparison to the other three forces.

The most shocking part to the Pope was that the force at the very top turned out to be Jiang Chen's Soul Power. This made him once again realize how extraordinary Jiang Chen was.

And this extraordinariness was indirectly brought forth by the other three entities!

"A'erfa, remember when I first arrived, you still retained a sliver of consciousness and asked me why I valued Mr. Jiang so highly—so highly that it bordered on reverence? Now, you have your answer, don't you?" The Dragon Saint turned to the Pope.

The Pope nodded with a stunned expression.

Then, after casting a glance at Jiang Chen, he turned his gaze toward the entrance of the pavilion.

There stood Xi'er and others. After their arrival, Mi Jiaro also waited at the doorway.

"I only hope his destiny can find redemption through Mr. Jiang," the Pope murmured as he sighed deeply, his eyes filled with expectation as they returned to Jiang Chen.

The Dragon Saint smiled faintly. "You can look forward to it. With Mr. Jiang, no miracle should ever feel too surprising. He himself is the very embodiment of miracles!"

Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!

The room began quaking. The Dragon Saint and the others had their emitted auras abruptly forced out of the bedroom.

"What's going on!?"

"That's such a potent aura!"

"It's Lord Dragon Saint's pavilion! What's happening?!"

"Did they… start fighting again?"

The people within the Holy Court could feel the presence unleashed by the Dragon Saint and the others. They cried out in alarm, their gazes all turning toward the pavilion where the Dragon Saint resided.

The Dragon Saint and the others were also taken aback. They looked at Jiang Chen in astonishment.

"To think that the aura produced by Mr. Jiang's energy fusion would be this… proud and lofty, even rejecting our presence!"

The Dragon Saint chuckled wryly. "Everyone, keep your auras confined around the pavilion. Maintain a boundary outside it."

The group exchanged glances, spotting the shock mirrored in one another's eyes. Was their Saint Realm pressure just dismissed by the aura of someone barely in the Early Stage Venerable Realm? This...!

Speechless with mutual understanding, the group followed the Dragon Saint's advice, enveloping the pavilion in their collective aura to block any further leaking of the energy within.

Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!

Once the four forces were aligned, Jiang Chen's Soul Power suddenly enveloped the other three radiances. Gradually, the four forces began to merge into one.

The fusion carried on for a full hour!

Whir!

After an hour, pure Heaven and Earth Vital Energy emerged. Surprisingly, Jiang Chen's fused power had transformed directly into Heaven and Earth Vital Energy.

Roar!

A dragon's roar resounded as a surge of immense power burst forth from Jiang Chen's body.

The Heaven and Earth Dragon Origin Qi manifested as a Divine Dragon in the air, swallowing the fused Heaven and Earth Vital Energy in one gulp before diving back into Jiang Chen's body.

Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!

Jiang Chen's body quaked as impurities seeped out from every pore on his body.

The Dragon Saint looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment, his gaze momentarily dazed as he muttered incredulously, "The Heaven and Earth Dragon Origin Qi… is actually on a higher tier than Heaven and Earth Vital Energy?! This…"

Everyone stared at Jiang Chen in shock, their hearts pounding violently!

In everyone's understanding, Heaven and Earth Vital Energy was the most supreme force in existence. Yet now, there appeared a power capable of consuming even that, utterly overturning their perceptions!

"After Mr. Jiang's internal aura fused, it turned into an ancient primordial force. Moreover, the rest of the fused Inner Qi transformed directly into Heaven and Earth Vital Energy under the influence of Jiang Chen's Soul Power. However, that Heaven and Earth Dragon Origin Qi swallowed the Vital Energy whole! Doesn't this mean… Mr. Jiang himself…"

Elder Long's eyes widened with shock as he stammered.

Whew!

The Dragon Saint exhaled a long breath, sighing in admiration. "I finally understand! I understand why those two value Mr. Jiang so much! It's because… he represents the future! Truly, Mr. Jiang signifies hope for what's to come!"

Everyone looked at the Dragon Saint in confusion, their eyes seeking confirmation.

"Do not ask me, for even I cannot explain it," the Dragon Saint shook his head. "Some truths are unspeakable. As for Mr. Jiang, just think of him as humanity's beacon of hope for the era to come."

Their hearts trembled at those words, and all eyes turned toward Jiang Chen in astonishment.

By now, Jiang Chen's overwhelming aura had gradually withdrawn. His body, however, was covered in impurities, though these impurities didn't exude any foul odor—on the contrary, they gave off a faint, refreshing fragrance.

The Dragon Saint smiled bitterly. "The impurities expelled from Mr. Jiang's body are actually leftover Inner Qi scabs of a tier equal to ours. This… this means the Inner Qi of our level was deemed unworthy by the Heaven and Earth Dragon Origin Qi!"

"I suddenly have this urge to scrape off those Inner Qi scabs from Mr. Jiang's body and refine them into elixirs. These are pure crystallized energy!" The former Emperor spoke with an odd expression.

"I'm tempted too!"

Yue Tianzheng remarked earnestly, "With these crystallized energies turned into elixirs, my family's descendants could see an unprecedented rise in their strength!"

Prompted by the former Emperor's suggestion, everyone's eyes fell upon the layer of impurities coating Jiang Chen's body. To them, those were equivalent to the Inner Qi of a Saint Realm expert—pure and unparalleled energy!

However, none of the powerful experts had the face to step forward and take the crystallized essence.

After all, these were the impurities expelled from Jiang Chen's pores, rejected by his own body. In layman's terms, it was Jiang Chen's "waste."

Though this "waste" was immensely tempting, they were Saint Realm experts, and pride mattered. Who among them would stoop so low?

What's more, they personally witnessed it being excreted from Jiang Chen's body!

"None of you should even think about it—I'll refine it myself!"

A playful voice rang out as Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.
