"What are you so excited about? If you have the ability, go slay an Integration Realm Peak expert for me to see, and then his space ring will be yours!"

Hu Yiqiu glared at Yun Tao, then grumbled discontentedly, "Cang Qiong is too stingy. Young Jiang has helped the academy so much, and yet he only got the spoils, not even a bit of reward."

"Elder Wine, it's not good to speak ill of people behind their backs!"

A light laugh rang out as Jian Cangqiong descended from the sky.

"Teacher!"

"Greetings, Dean!"

Jiang Chen and the others cupped their fists in salute.

"If I hadn't sensed you coming, I wouldn't have bothered saying anything."

Hu Yiqiu rolled his eyes at Jian Cangqiong, "Forget about the old man's share, but young Jiang's reward is a must. Hand it over immediately! Don't forget, you're still young Jiang's teacher, and a teacher can't pocket the student's belongings!"

Hearing this, Jian Cangqiong was slightly taken aback and shook his head in amusement. He turned to look at Jiang Chen, his eyes showing gratitude and relief, "Jiang Chen, we owe you a great deal this time, otherwise, the academy might not have survived!"

"There's no need to be polite, Dean. I'm just a part of the academy."

Jiang Chen said with a light smile, waving his hand.

"There's no need for politeness, but a reward is still necessary!"

Hu Yiqiu, with the demeanor of a mother hen protecting her chicks, glared at Jian Cangqiong as if he really wasn't going to give a reward.

"Elder Wine, I'm here to give out the reward!"

Jian Cangqiong sighed helplessly, glanced at the protective Hu Yiqiu, and then turned back to Jiang Chen, "Your contribution is immense this time. After discussing with Elder Sang and Elder Hu, the two supervising elders, we've decided to reward you with a combat skill!"

"Combat skill?"

Jiang Chen was slightly puzzled, looking quizzically at Jian Cangqiong.

"You don't know about combat skills?"

Jian Cangqiong gave Jiang Chen an incredulous look and turned to Hu Yiqiu.

Hu Yiqiu was also taken aback, looking at Jiang Chen with a face full of confusion, "Young Jiang, don't you already know combat skills? How come you don't know?"

"I already know combat skills?"

Jiang Chen was baffled, his face full of confusion.

"Isn't your Gentle Water Sword a kind of combat skill?"

Hu Yiqiu's eyes revealed a peculiar expression.

"Oh, that! That's not it!"

Jiang Chen shook his head gently, "That's a cultivation technique I practice to help comprehend the Great Dao. When I was comprehending the Great Dao, I directly used the operational method of the Gentle Water Sword to comprehend the Way of Water and the Golden Path."

"What!?"

"Using the operational method of a cultivation technique to comprehend and integrate the Great Dao!?"

Hu Yiqiu and the others widened their eyes, looking at Jiang Chen in shock.

"Yeah, what about it? Isn't this how you guys comprehend it?"

Jiang Chen looked at the two of them with a face of confusion.

"Junior brother, you... you... you're a monster, and your cultivation techniques are monstrous too!"

Yun Tao exclaimed, full of admiration.

"Young Jiang, who have you told about this matter?"

Hu Yiqiu suddenly spoke with a serious expression.

"I haven't told anyone, why?"

Jiang Chen shook his head gently.

"You really don't know how to describe you!"

Hu Yiqiu looked at Jiang Chen helplessly, "What you're describing is collectively called 'Great Dao Cultivation Technique'. It's the dream cultivation technique of all cultivators. If news of you having this technique spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar in the entire Canglan Continent. There are less than twenty known Great Dao Cultivation Techniques in the entire Canglan Continent."

"And most of these techniques only help to comprehend a single Great Dao. Only a few can help comprehend two Great Daos, and only Canglan Great Emperor has a technique that helps to comprehend three Great Daos!"

"Judging from your appearance, your cultivation technique might..."

At this point, Hu Yiqiu hesitated for a moment before changing the subject, "A technique that can help you comprehend two Great Daos is something even the Integration Realm Peak would fight over, especially for those strong in the Golden Path or the Way of Water. Who wouldn't want to comprehend more Great Daos?"

Jiang Chen faltered for a moment. Two? Isn't my cultivation technique...

He was about to explain but noticed the deeper meaning in Hu Yiqiu's eyes and came to an understanding.

"Jiang Chen, this matter of the cultivation technique must not be spread!"

Jian Cangqiong also looked at Jiang Chen with a serious expression.

"Yes, I understand!"

Jiang Chen nodded, muttering inwardly, "Is this cultivation technique really so rare? Well, I guess a cultivation technique left by Lord Ancestral Dragon and that mysterious old man wouldn't be ordinary. But it's rare that I have three such techniques, and they complement each other."

Wait!

Not three, two!

Jiang Chen squinted, a trace of contemplation in his eyes.

The Tome of Dao is a cultivation technique, and the Nameless Sword Art is the cultivation insight of that old man. However, Lord Ancestral Dragon also called the Nameless Sword Art the Holy Dragon Sword Art. What's the deal with that?

Also, the old man's words, not wanting the Nameless Sword Art to affect me—what does that mean? Is it to say he doesn't want me to follow his old path?

The nine moves of the Nameless Sword Art all involve integrating two Great Daos together. Is the old man implying I shouldn't just combine two Daos but learn to fully integrate them?

But when I was integrating just now...

No!

While integrating within the formation, it was because the formation acted as a catalyst. Then, if I want to integrate the Five Elements Great Path into one, would it also require some sort of catalyst?

Catalyst...

The Spatial Path, the foundation of the original Great Dao!

Based on the Spatial Path, using the nine fundamental original Great Daos as beams, Great Dao Fusion can unify into one and transform all the ways of heaven and earth!

Just then, the message from the True Dragon Martial Spirit about condensing the Great Dao Wheel of Light flashed through his mind. Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly brightened, and he slowly closed them, with traces of Great Dao Divine Light beginning to emerge around him.

"This..."

Hu Yiqiu and the others looked at Jiang Chen in astonishment.

Initially, when Jiang Chen became silent, the group thought he was just surprised at the rarity of his cultivation technique, but unexpectedly, after waiting a moment, they witnessed...

"An epiphany? This... this... what's happening with junior brother? How did he suddenly have an epiphany?"

Yun Tao's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Quiet!"

Hu Yiqiu softly but sternly hissed, glancing at Yun Tao.

Yun Tao hurriedly shut his mouth, his gaze on Jiang Chen full of envy.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The Great Dao Divine Light on Jiang Chen's body became increasingly bright, and an immense Great Dao aura emanated from his body.

"This is..."

Jian Cangqiong's eyes revealed a trace of surprise, looking at Hu Yiqiu beside him.

Hu Yiqiu gently nodded, looking hopeful as he stared at Jiang Chen.

Cultivating during an epiphany moves much faster. Right now, the Great Dao aura exuding from Jiang Chen was a combination of the Five Elements Great Path and the Spatial Path, reminding Hu Yiqiu of Jiang Chen's earlier experiment, and he began to feel a vague sense of expectation.
