Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate Chapter 320: Practicing Cultivation Methods, Late-Stage Transcendence Realm Combat Power
🕑 Added 2023-08-28 17:39:18 +0000 UTC
In this critical moment, Jiang Chen immediately activated the Wordless Heavenly Jade.
Though his existing strength could easily dispatch a Middle-stage Transcendence realm cultivator, it wasn't sufficient to defeat Mo Hao, who had temporarily ascended to Late-stage Transcendence realm combat power.
To ensure his safety, Jiang Chen felt compelled to elevate his peak combat abilities to the Late-stage Transcendence realm.
He had already eliminated Jiu Xiaoyin, along with other demon race experts, and the scar-faced man—a human cultivator in the Transcendence realm.
The qi and blood he'd absorbed gave him more than enough resources to practice multiple Transcendence realm cultivation methods.
'Wan'er, Ning'er, help me choose the cultivation methods with the highest cost-effectiveness for enhancing my combat power right now!' Jiang Chen mentally contacted Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning, the two beauties at the Void Tribulation realm.
He quickly received their suggestions in return.
Among the inheritance he had received from the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven, Jiang Chen identified four cultivation methods he had yet to practice.
He had already achieved great accomplishment-level theoretical knowledge for these methods, and the energy they required from the Wordless Heavenly Jade was relatively minimal.
Given the current energy levels of his Wordless Heavenly Jade, Jiang Chen had more than enough to fully practice all four methods—and even additional ones if he chose.
Heeding the advice of Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning, Jiang Chen decided to first focus on these four.
The methods in question were the 'Bright Spirit Pure Heart Art', the 'Mysterious Body Locking Primordial Technique', the 'Falling Sun Nine Heavens Mystic Art', and the 'Titan Body Forging Ancient Scroll'.
These covered a range of disciplines: one focused on soul cultivation, one on enhancing power temporarily, and two on diverse body-forging techniques.
'Wordless Heavenly Jade!' With a mere thought from Jiang Chen, the intricacies of the first cultivation method—the Bright Spirit Pure Heart Art—flashed vividly in his mind.
Instantly, a surge of wondrous energy burst forth from the Wordless Heavenly Jade, seamlessly merging into his soul and body.
In mere moments, Jiang Chen achieved perfect-level mastery in the Bright Spirit Pure Heart Art, dramatically extending his divine sense's detection range to an astonishing 2.6 million kilometers.
Wasting no time, Jiang Chen pressed on to master the remaining three Transcendence realm cultivation methods, each to perfect-level, in just a few moments.
The Titan Body Forging Ancient Scroll considerably bolstered his bodily strength. Coupled with enhancements from the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo, Jiang Chen had far surpassed the capabilities of a typical Middle-stage Transcendence realm cultivator.
Upon practicing the Mysterious Body Locking Primordial Technique, the quality and volume of Jiang Chen's Yuan Power surged exponentially.
Now, with his Dao Palace realm cultivation base, his Dao Yuan Power fully met the Immortal Yuan Power standard.
Lastly, the power-boosting secret art equipped him with a technique to unleash the full extent of his combat prowess in an instant.
After practicing these four cultivation methods, Jiang Chen didn't stop there.
He set his sights on another method—the 'Great Changes Celestial Sword Canon'.
Unlike the others, this Transcendence realm cultivation method, owned by Shangguan Ning, was renowned for its limitless variations. Although it bore similarities to the Myriad Changes Everlasting Sword, it was considerably more advanced.
As this particular cultivation method was not part of the inheritance he received from the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven, Jiang Chen relied solely on the Wordless Heavenly Jade to practice it from start to finish.
Consequently, the energy consumption from his pool of qi and blood was notably higher.
Upon completing his practice, Jiang Chen found the energy reserves of his Wordless Heavenly Jade almost entirely drained.
Yet, the result was an unmistakable rise in his combat power.
'System, display the detailed information!' Jiang Chen mentally commanded, proceeding to open his personal information panel.

'My combat power has now ascended to the Late-stage Transcendence realm,' Jiang Chen mused internally. 'Plus, I've amassed more than three hundred thousand points of Villain Value! With this much value, I could easily trade for a game-changing trump card.'
'But considering my present strength is already enough to alter the plot, I'll opt to continue accumulating my Villain Value.' His eyes then shifted towards Mo Hao and his assembled foes below.
Remarkably, although Jiang Chen had cultivated an entire array of five Transcendence realm methods, mere moments had elapsed in the real world—such was the overwhelming potency of the Wordless Heavenly Jade.
Below, Mo Hao found himself encircled by a battalion of enemies, and the air was thick with the tension of an imminent battle.
Yet Mo Hao appeared anything but perturbed; he was on the verge of laughter.
After all, his own combat power had temporarily spiked to the Late-stage Transcendence realm. Facing him were four Transcendence realm cultivators, the most formidable among them only reaching the Middle-stage Transcendence realm.
In the Transcendence realm, even minor realm disparities carried significant weight, far more than in the Second Step of the Cultivation Path.
So, as long as Shao Ji and his cohorts continued to underestimate him, dealing with them would be child's play.
"Hehe, so you dare to humiliate and even besiege me?" Mo Hao sneered, his body emanating an intense fighting spirit, ready to single-handedly confront the gathering foes.
Clang!
Weapons unsheathed, Shao Ji and his cohorts responded with disdainful laughter.
In a flash, the glint of blades and the shadow of swords danced through the air, their sharp edges forming a menacing forest of metal. The display sent a shiver down the spines of onlookers like Zhu Zhihai.
To Zhu Zhihai and his companions, if hostilities were to erupt, the odds would likely favor Shao Ji's group.
Consequently, Zhu Zhihai and his friends had essentially been reduced to spectators, mere extras in the grand spectacle that Mo Hao appeared set to stage.
Without Jiang Chen's intervention, Mo Hao's dramatic performance was sure to go off without a hitch.
But of course, Jiang Chen was never one to act without certainty.
Just as Shao Ji's crew and Mo Hao were poised for a brutal clash, a voice saturated with commanding authority suddenly echoed through the area. "Hold on!"
The voice was incisive, its resounding clarity signifying that its owner was someone of significant stature.
Accompanying this voice was an aura nearly matching that of a Middle-stage Transcendence realm cultivator.
Of course, it was Jiang Chen making this grand entrance, but he had deliberately suppressed his own aura to approximate that of the Middle-stage Transcendence realm.
Mo Hao wished to show off? Jiang Chen resolved to steal his thunder yet again. Let's see how Mo Hao would act now!
"Who is this interloper?" someone demanded, annoyance edging their voice.
"How dare you meddle in our affairs?"
The brows of Shao Ji and his four Transcendence realm compatriots furrowed, their attention abruptly shifting towards the source of the voice.
'Who dares to intervene at this moment?' Mo Hao's eyes likewise flashed with curiosity, as he, too, sought out the owner of the commanding voice.
What met their gaze was a beam of light descending from the heavens, metamorphosing into a young man adorned in lavish robes.
The young man was none other than Jiang Chen.

Yeah being the puppetmaster in the shadows is only so interesting. With Gu Ran it came down to JC is stealthed and intervenes for like 20 chapters. I'm really glad we aren't going to do that back to back. But one thing that makes me wonder is if JC is going to have a dialog with Mo Hao about being from Earth too?

Taking a personal step into things once again, I look forward to how things develop from here.
