After a while, Jiang Yuan arrived at the peak.

“Young friend, sit here!” Kong Nian said with a smile.

Jiang Yuan came up to him: “Greetings, Senior, thank you for the Life Elixir you gave me the other day, which healed my injuries.”

Jiang Yuan said, then took his seat calmly.

He was somewhat excited, seeing the golden strands of the merging energy swirling around Kong Nian at the moment!

Then, he set his mind to it within.

The Luck Power concentrated on Kong Nian’s body was taken away by him strand by strand instantly.

Jiang Yuan noticed the Luck Power on his Personal Dashboard surged rapidly all of a sudden.

Just as he expected!

The higher a person’s cultivation, the more Luck Power he can store on his body.

No wonder when he first met Kong Nian, he had fifty-three strands of Luck Power on his body.

When he first met Gu MO, however, he only had merely a dozen strands.

Kong Nian looked at Jiang Yuan and scrutinized him thoroughly, then his expression slightly changed.

The third stage of the meridian breaking realm?

This rate of cultivation… it’s so fast!

It has only been two months since our last meeting.

Even if he had my Life Elixir, he shouldn’t have been able to cultivate within a month.

This means he only had a month of cultivation time. How could he break through to the third stage of the meridian breaking realm?

Even with abundant resources, how could his meridians withstand such intense and frequent wear and tear?

Moreover, didn’t a rumor circulate before that he had achieved grand success in the Surging Wave Palm technique?

How did he achieve all of this within a month?

Did I underestimate him? His talent is far more terrifying than I imagined!

After seeing Jiang Yuan, endless questions arose in Kong Nian’s mind.

One thing he was sure of was that he had underestimated Jiang Yuan’s talent.

While he was pondering over this.

Jiang Yuan took out the Biyu Spring Tea he had just bought.

“Senior, this is the best wine I can afford, it’s my way of expressing my gratitude to you! Thank you for your support last time and for your kindness, which moved me deeply!”

Jiang Yuan said sincerely, then poured a glass of wine for Kong Nian.

Although his goal has been achieved and his speculation was confirmed, Jiang Yuan wasn’t in a hurry to leave. He wanted to strengthen his relationship with Kong Nian to facilitate his periodic visits to harvest Luck Power.

Otherwise, if their relationship became strained, wouldn’t it be impossible for him to enter Heaven Lead Peak?

Looking at the green wine in front of him, Kong Nian said with a laugh, “Great!

Seeing your sincerity, I’ll drink this cup of wine you’ve poured.” Having said this, he raised his cup and finished the drink in one gulp.

“If it weren’t for you, lad, I definitely wouldn’t drink such inferior wine.”

After finishing his statement, he waved his hand and a white jade-colored jar of wine appeared on the stone table.

“Come, let’s drink my fine collection!”

“Alright!” Jiang Yuan showed a smile and immediately picked up the wine jar to pour wine for Kong Nian.

“Young Master, let me do it!” Shu Xiao suddenly said.

Jiang Yuan gave a faint nod of his head.

Shu Xiao immediately took over the wine jar and poured a cup of wine for each of them.

An elder and a youth, both had the intention of closing in their relationship, so they started drinking rounds of each other’s cups.

After the third round of drinks, Kong Nian noticed that Jiang Yuan was looking somewhat drowsy.

Then he opened his mouth: “I’ll tell you, lad, I’m the Strongest in Supreme Mystery Sect, have you heard of the ninth stage of the Divine Bridge Realm before?”

Jiang Yuan shook his head.

“Alright, let me show you how powerful I am! See this cloud above my head? If I want it to disperse, it will.”

As he finished speaking.

He extended his five fingers towards the sky, and a giant palm instantly formed in the sky.

As he clenched his fist, the palm above his head also slowly clenched.

The turbulent air waves rolled above his head, and mist turned into flowing water flowing through that towering palm.

Under this pressure, it instantly turned into rainfall.

In a blink of an eye, the sky above was incredibly blue, without a single cloud in sight.

“Did you see that? This is my power. At the ninth stage of the Divine Bridge Realm, I am capable of harnessing the power of Heaven and Earth for my own use! I am much more powerful than the other Chiefs, even the Sect Leader was spanked by me in his childhood!”

After laying the groundwork, he slowly said: “With me having your back, no one in the Supreme Mystery Sect dares to touch you. Do you want to become my disciple?”

Jiang Yuan shook his head slowly: “Senior, I’m sorry!”

“Well, never mind!” Kong Nian seemed somewhat disheartened, then asked again: “Are you refusing because you’ve secretly taken another Peak Master as your master?”

“Not at all!” Jiang Yuan shook his head.

Hearing his decisive answer, Kong Nian felt somewhat relieved.

Then he said again: “I heard your Surging Wave Palm technique has reached great success?”

“Senior, to be completely honest with you, it’s not just great success, it’s perfect completion!”

“Perfect Completion?” Kong Nian was instantly surprised: “You’d better not be fooling me! You’ve only been cultivating for a short time, how could you have mastered the perfectly completed Surging Wave Palm!”

“Senior doesn’t believe it?”

“Not believing it!” Kong Nian shook his head.

“Alright then, Senior, please watch!” said Jiang Yuan.

He raised his hand and aimed a palm strike at the distance.

Whizz——

The sound of surging waves suddenly sounded in their ears.

With this palm strike from Jiang Yuan, a surging river appeared out of nowhere, with overwhelming waves.

It rolled forward until it reached the woods. Suddenly, illuminated patterns appeared, and strands of sword light emerged out of thin air. Only then did this surging river disperse.

Jiang Yuan was quite confident about this palm strike.

That day, he was at the bottom of the Cangjiang River, unable to comprehend the perfect completion.

Until his mind flashed with insight, he felt as though he had become one with the Cangjiang River.

He could feel the majestic waves, the endless rushing river water, each splash of a wave, all appearing in his mind.

Only then did he suddenly understand the meaning of The Surging Wave Palm.

Then, witnessing the scene before him, waves of shock rolled throughout Kong Nian’s heart — utterly astounded.

Where is this a complete level of Surging Wave Palm? This clearly surpasses the complete level and infuses the palm with spirit.

How is this possible!

How could his insight into the Surging Wave Palm reach such a realm?

Above completion, there’s life infusion, imparting the move with spirit.

Any martial technique that surpasses completion, that is an entirely different level.

Not the difference of minor success and great success to completion, but another world altogether.

One can say, the level above completion, imparts the technique with spirit. Unparalleled might, just like the river that was formed from that one palm strike he just executed.

Each splash of a wave is equivalent to the complete level of the Surging Wave Palm.

This exaggeration, countless heaven geniuses, spent their lives unable to reach this realm, the realm of infusing life into their moves.

Enlightenment isn’t like other things, if it doesn’t work, it simply doesn’t.

If it can’t be done, it can’t be done. Time spent accumulating it has extremely weak effects.

He deeply looked at Jiang Yuan.

Unbelievably, he actually, in such a short span of over a month, went from nothing to fully understanding the Surging Wave Palm and even surpassed its completion.

Just how high is his enlightenment? At this moment, he couldn’t imagine, because he has never seen such a heaven genius before.

Heaven geniuses with decent enlightenment are one in a million, extremely rare.

This kind of talent is also impossible to measure.

That’s why the Techniques Vault contains mid-level replicas meant to screen for heaven geniuses with decent enlightenment.

As for enlightenment high to the extent of his display, Kong Nian has never seen it before, only heard of it.

The heaven genius who led the rise of the Heaven Lead Peak back then, was said to have reached saintly enlightenment.

Any technique in his hands, no matter how much time it takes, would be fully comprehended by him, and amongst them, includes some attack techniques beyond completion.

He even could absorb the strengths of a hundred families, stood on the shoulders of predecessors to create his own techniques.

The body refining technique he created was but a legacy from that man. He stood on his shoulders, constantly perfecting it, and now, it can only be considered minimally perfected.

If such a technique was in that man’s hands, it wouldn’t take long for it to reach the level of pointing directly to the Great Dao.

That cannot be quantified by mortal, earthly, or heavenly grades.

Thinking to this point, Kong Nian valued Jiang Yuan even more.

Strong divine soul, unparalleled physical body, extraordinary enlightenment.

Where can he find such a heaven genius disciple?

It doesn’t matter he refuses to become a disciple once, even if he eventually doesn’t become a disciple, it doesn’t matter. Master and disciple are but a handle, after all!

The inheritance is everlasting!

After thinking it through, his mood instantly improved, looking at Jiang Yuan with a satisfied smile.

But when Jiang Yuan saw Kong Nian’s expression, he couldn’t help but shudder.

This old man, surely he doesn’t have some strange proclivity, does he!?

Just then, a voice suddenly came to both their ears.

“You old fellow, why aren’t you in seclusion today tweaking your techniques?” The next moment, he exclaimed, somewhat astonished: “It’s you!”

Jiang Yuan turned his head, and immediately an elderly figure appeared in his eyes.

It’s him!

The senior who guards the entrance of Technique Vault!

Why isn’t he guarding the door today?

Jiang Yuan promptly paid his respects: “I pay my respects to senior!”

Then Jiang Yuan glanced at Kong Nian again: “Since both seniors are here, this junior will take his leave first!”

“Good!” Kong Nian kindly said: “next time when you have time, remember to come find me!”

“Definitely next time!”

Jiang Yuan cupped his hands, then, with Shu Xiaoxiao, went down the

mountain.

After the two disappeared from the mountain trail.

Bai Chi suddenly said: “Old fellow, why are you so kind to him? There is no need to be courteous to this ungrateful youngster!”

Kong Nian laughed and shook his head: “You don’t understand!”

“I don’t understand? I think you’re possessed, the Supreme Mystery Sect has no lack of heaven geniuses, why put all your hopes on one tree!”

Bai Chi felt somewhat exasperated.

“What heaven geniuses, they are merely mediocre!” Kong Nian lazily said.

Then he said: “I know you want to refute! Look at this!”

After he finished speaking, he swung up his hand.

The scene of Jiang Yuan’s recent palm strike slowly appeared before their eyes.

Bai Chi looked at the water curtain in front of him, slightly curious.

The next moment, his pupils constricted, he slowly said: “Surging Wave Palm beyond completion!”

Kong Nian raised his hand to withdraw the water curtain.

“Get it now! It hasn’t been long since he borrowed the Surging Wave Palm replica from the Techniques Vault, and he has already reached the level beyond completion! You now know how extraordinary his comprehension is!” Bai Chi solemnly nodded his head: “Indeed very high, unexpectedly high!”

Kong Nian further said: “And also, I don’t know if you noticed, his realm has already reached meridian breaking realm’s third stage!”

“Third stage!” Bai Chi muttered: “No wonder you old fellow can’t get him out of your mind! Hearing what you’ve said, even I am tempted!”

“What is the use of being tempted!” Kong Nian shook his head and sighed:

“This kid is impervious to oil and salt! He stubbornly refuses to acknowledge a master, I don’t know what he’s thinking.”

At this moment, Bai Chi said: “If he, as you said, had almost saintly enlightenment, an unrivaled physical body, a powerful divine soul, this kind of heaven genius, do you think the Supreme Mystery Sect can restrict him?”

Kong Nian fell into deep thought, after a while, he slowly said: “You have a point, back in the day, the heaven genius from Heaven Lead Peak who made the Supreme Gold List, in fact, the Supreme Mystery Sect had restricted him.”

“If he hadn’t come from the Supreme Mystery Sect, with a shallow base and no guardian, he probably wouldn’t have died at the hands of that great demon!”

Kong Nian, as he was speaking, suddenly snapped out of it, returning to his senses..
