"Hai Zongming, fifty-four years old, tall, one of the twenty-four elders with real power in the Fishing Sea Tower. He's at the peak of the Outer Tower and has already established the Four Saints Tower. There's no record of him obtaining a Theurgy. Nine years ago, he fought with the cultivators of the Tian Family's Outer Tower. Both sides were on the brink of death, but no Theurgy was seen. Therefore, we can basically confirm that he didn't obtain a Theurgy when he was in the Inner Mansion Stage. "
"His main technique is the Dragon Fishing Code. This technique was passed down by the founder of the Fishing Sea Tower, the Dragon Fisherman. He uses his own body as a pole to fish everything. "
"He's good at wind and water elemental Daoist techniques. The strongest technique he's shown is the A-grade wind elemental Nine Slashes of the Grey Green. I'll write you the details of its power and Uncle Chu Liang's suggestions later. The last time Hai Zongming fought in front of people was last year, so we don't know if he's mastered any new Daoist techniques. However, it's basically impossible for him to make a big leap before breaking through. Furthermore, Hai Zongming's close combat style is fierce and his weapon is a pair of water-splitting thorns. "
"His strongest revealed artifact is the Dragon-imprisoning Rope, which binds the target upon contact. Therefore, we must not let it touch you. "
…
"Finally, Hai Zongming is no longer in the Fishing Sea Tower."
Hai Zongming's absence meant that he had already set off.
This meant that he already knew that Jiang Wang had left the Qi Region and was on his way to hunt him down!
Chung Geng Sheng's information was extremely detailed. He almost told Jiang Wang what kind of tea Hai Zongming drank every day.
It took a lot of effort to gather this information, which involved the nearby islands. Chung Geng Sheng's power alone couldn't gather the complete information. Therefore, his fourth uncle, Chongxuan Minghe, must've contributed to it.
In fact, because of the previous generation, Chung Geng Sheng was only close to his uncle, Chongxuan Chu Liang. Needless to say, Chongxuan Mingguang, Chongxuan Minghe stayed in the nearby islands all year round and almost never returned to Linzi. They didn't interact much with each other.
However, Chung Geng Sheng still went to find him for Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang could guess these things, but he didn't say anything. He only nodded. "I know what to do."
"Don't be careless. You must not be careless." Chung Geng Sheng said seriously, "No matter how much the Doorless Hell offers, I can afford it."
He knew about the relationship between Jiang Wang and Yin Guan, and agreed that asking the Gateless Hell to help was the best choice.
Because Hai Zongming had already set off, even if Jiang Wang turned back now, he might not be able to return to Qi Jing before Hai Zongming intercepted him.
"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing," Jiang Wang said.
…
After learning that Hai Zongming had yet to pluck his divine ability, Jiang Wang had already made up his mind.
He wanted to rely on himself to kill Hai Zongming!
The Inner Mansion versus the Outer Mansion was probably the most common type of cross-realm challenge between cultivators. It was mainly because of the existence of the Divine Ability Inner Palace.
In fact, in ancient times, the Inner Mansion Realm was known as the Transcendent Realm. If one did not obtain the Transcendent Seed, one could not be considered in this realm. However, because divine abilities were hard to come by, there were too many cultivators who were stuck in this realm, unable to advance even an inch.
Under the improvement of generations of genius cultivators, today's cultivators could surpass divine abilities and advance to the Outer Mansion from the ordinary Inner Mansion Realm. This way, the number of cultivators in the Outer Mansion and beyond could rapidly increase.
This was one of the proofs of the continuous development of the cultivation world.
From then on, divine abilities were no longer a barrier. Even with divine abilities, one might not be able to achieve God's Arrival. Without divine abilities, one might not necessarily be unable to reach Truth Understanding, or even cultivate to the peak of Transcendence.
However, in the specific realm, there was one undeniable fact — the Inner Mansion of the Divine Ability Inner Palace was qualified to fight with the ordinary Outer Mansion.
That was why the Inner Mansion of the Divine Ability Inner Palace was so respected. Even the qualifications of Qi's Prefectural Governor were originally at the Outer Mansion, but they were also open to the Inner Mansion of the Divine Ability Inner Palace.
Hai Zongming was at the peak of the Outer Mansion with four Star Buildings side by side. His combat strength could roughly be compared to Lei Zhanqian after perfecting the Five Mansion.
There was definitely a gap, but it was not the kind of gap that could not be crossed.
Especially now, Jiang Wang had a comprehensive advantage in terms of intelligence. He could make arrangements in advance for all aspects of Hai Zongming.
This was a huge advantage. It could even be said that he had the opportunity to close the gap in strength!
If he could not grasp this opportunity well, Jiang Wang would not be worthy of being called Tianjiao.
Of course, he would not directly confront him and completely entrust his life and death to the deduction of the battle.
After making a thorough deduction of the battle and making up his mind, he still went to the nearest big city and found a way to contact the Doorless Hell.
The Doorless Hell only accepted assassination missions, not protection missions.
Therefore, Jiang Wang issued a mission to kill Hai Zongming. However, if Hai Zongming died before the Doorless Hell made a move, the mission would be canceled. He only needed to pay a deposit.
This way, he was prepared for both sides. It would be better if he could directly kill Hai Zongming. If he could not, he would wait for the Doorless Hell to make a move. However, to kill a peak Outer Mansion Realm cultivator, just the deposit alone would cost 500,000 Primordial Stones, which was equivalent to a second-class Meridian Unlocking Pill.
…
After leaving Zheng State, Jiang Wang and Xiang Qian continued westward.
Jiang Wang's Fire Source Totem was a combination of the Bone Lotus Flower and the Flame Totem of the Qing Huo Tribe, which produced a change that Jiang Wang still could not understand. It had the ability to accumulate the star power of the Nether Heaven Starbeast, but it could not directly absorb the star power of the firmament.
The situation had changed in Star Moon Plain. As Guan Yan had said, Star Moon Plain was one of the places in the Present World closest to the starry sky. Moreover, Guan Yan had intentionally gathered it, so he could accumulate some star power in Star Moon Plain.
Jiang Wang chose to store the star power in the Bone Lotus Flower part, while the Flame Totem part continued to accumulate totem power.
However, the star power mainly from the Alioth Starbeast was not as pure as the star power from the Nether Heaven Starbeast, and there was a difference in quantity. It was far from full after one night.
The star power of the sword in the Life and Death Chess filled the whole totem, which was far from the scale now. Given the speed at which Star Moon Plain accumulated star power, it would take at least a month to fill it up. Jiang Wang could not wait that long, so he left after one night.
Now that he had decided to fight Hai Zongming, he should have returned to Star Moon Plain to accumulate more star power and increase his chances of winning the battle.
However, if they suddenly returned to Star Moon Plain while hurrying along, it would definitely arouse Hai Zongming's vigilance. They would lose their biggest advantage, which was not worth the loss. Therefore, Jiang Wang chose to keep going.
"Since Hai Zongming has set out, it means that he has a way to track me down."
Jiang Wang analyzed as he hurried along, "But I don't know what method he used. Maybe he went to Qingyang Town or Linzi and got something related to me, or maybe someone sent him information. But he must be able to track me down, which can still be exploited. I can make him misjudge my speed and thus misjudge my strength. The most he knows about me is the battle between me and Lei Zhanqian. "
"Then there's time. According to the judgment of the Junggenjia masters, with his strength, he can catch up to me in about two to three days. We have to pretend that we know nothing and hurry along. We can't stop on the way, but we can control our speed to achieve the possibility of setting up the battlefield. "
"I tentatively set the battlefield at Camel Peak Mountain. There are few people there, and it's impossible to get out in a day. It's the perfect place to set up an ambush. Besides, there's no water nearby, so the environment is very restrictive to Hai Zongming. I can't stop or turn back, so I'll leave the matter of setting up an ambush to you. Traps, formations, poisons … use everything you can. "
"I only know how to use a sword, but I can prepare a few sword formations." Xiang Qian thought for a while and asked, "What if we don't meet him at Camel Peak Mountain?"
"It's not a good chance, and he's too cautious. Then we can only pay for our meat. "
Jiang Wang sighed. "The information I provided to the Doorless Hell was at Camel Peak Mountain. We only have to wait for one day, and the assassins of the Doorless Hell should have arrived by then … What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that? "
Xiang Qian retracted his listless gaze. "I suddenly feel some sympathy for you!"
