Chapter 320: Chapter 214: The Spread of Martial Arts, Leaving Gracefully (Request for Monthly Pass)
A dragon claw, over fifteen meters long, tore through layers of dark clouds. Bolts of thunder coalesced around it, resembling the lines of a palm print.
Thirty-six Scale Armor plates radiated terrifying energy, each vibrating with immense Primordial Power and spiritual power.
The Break Limit-level Heavenly Gang Dragon Capturing Hand, in Jiang Shu’s hands, had even surpassed conventional Supreme Martial Arts.
BOOM!
One must press the advantage against a routed foe!
With a single palm strike, the surrounding space seemed to collapse instantaneously.
All was silent between heaven and earth!
The dragon claw permeated heaven and earth. Like a razor-sharp blade, it effortlessly sliced through all of Orochi’s struggles.
The surging blood orbs, the great tide formed by the dense venom, and the barrier of spiritual power—all were shattered by a single force!
ROAR!
Orochi let out its last, heart-rending half-roar.
With the descent of Jiang Shu’s Heavenly Gang Dragon Capturing Hand, its final head shattered completely, blood and flesh splattering everywhere.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Once Orochi’s spiritual power was obliterated, its eight necks, now completely unsupported, thunderously crashed from midair, raising waves tens of meters high.
The blood orbs that had formed on the snake necks also sloughed off, drifting into the sea.
Jiang Shu floated down and stood atop the tens of thousands of tons of Orochi’s carcass, his white robes stained with blood, wielding the power of life and death in his palm.
At that moment, the dark clouds dissipated, and rays of sunlight once again shone upon the ruins.
「Jiangnan University.」
It’s unknown who first cried out, "Jiang Tian is invincible!" Immediately, these words surged like a world-shaking tsunami, rippling out from the university!
All of Ji City was cheering Jiang Shu’s name.
And foreign viewers watching the live broadcast were left utterly stunned.
Jiang Shu’s god-like methods directly overturned their understanding of Martial Arts.
This was the Orochi that had instantly destroyed even Mechas!
This was the Orochi that even missiles had failed to destroy!
Before this man, merely about 1.8 meters tall, it had seemed so utterly fragile!
Is this... a man, or a god?!
「Xia Country’s Sea Domain.」
Helicopters quickly arrived. Armed soldiers rappelled down, attempting to rescue any survivors.
Meanwhile, more soldiers, accompanied by experts, began using cutters made of cosmic metal to segment Orochi’s enormous carcass, taking it away piece by piece.
"Is this... is this Jiang Tian? He single-handedly defeated Orochi! Even the formidable Freedom Country dares not approach! You have to understand, in this era of genetic research, Orochi’s carcass is priceless. In the eyes of Freedom Country, this is more valuable than oil! If they obtained it, they could undoubtedly produce a Sixth Rank Genetic Potion, greatly enhancing their nation’s power."
"Yes, and the previous nuclear-type hegemon was instantly obliterated. This indicates that the seemingly powerful Mechas possess extremely fatal flaws. If we could obtain some of Orochi’s flesh and blood, we might be able to analyze and uncover some of those secrets. Yet, Jiang Tian still stands atop Orochi’s head. Troops from Freedom Country can only approach under the guise of rescuing survivors; they don’t dare get close."
"It’s hilarious. They not only lost a nuclear-type hegemon and an aircraft carrier, but even their number one lackey’s nation is now in ruins. But Fusang is the most pitiful. They previously developed Martial Arts, only for Jiang Tian to break its spine. Now they’re relying on Freedom Country for genetic research, and in no time at all, their island is gone."
"His physical body can traverse the universe, and he can obliterate Orochi with a palm strike. Calling Jiang Tian’s abilities divine is no overstatement! By the way, do you remember when Jiang Tian said that upon his return, he would establish a new method and teach it to the masses? If that’s true, don’t we all have a chance to reach Jiang Tian’s current level?!"
"A new method... If that’s true, it would be a true earthquake on Xuanxing! Even citizens of Freedom Country might renounce their citizenship. After all, Martial Arts is truly a great path to becoming immortal."
"I don’t know when he’ll announce it. I’ve already bookmarked the live stream. I’ll stay up for the next few days if I have to, just to wait for Jiang Tian!"
"It definitely won’t be for a while. Orochi is a treasure trove, and Jiang Tian will surely take it back first. I can’t even imagine the commotion when Jiang Tian returns to Xia Country."
「Xia Country.」
A wave of excitement swept through the nation. On the streets, countless pedestrians danced and celebrated jubilantly.
Jiang Shu’s image was broadcast on skyscraper screens.
Countless reporters flooded Ji City and Jiangnan City, interviewing anyone and everyone connected to Jiang Shu.
Although Jiang Shu’s fame had been growing, his true power was only clearly understood within the Martial Artist community. Due to his low-key nature and special status, major media outlets hadn’t dared to report on him extensively.
But now, with Orochi slain, Jiang Shu’s fame soared to its absolute peak.
Among a population of over a billion, some might not know the wealthiest individual, but there wasn’t a soul who didn’t know of Jiang Shu, Jiang Tian!
「Ji City’s Fifth High School.」
Facing a sea of cameras, Principal Zhang Taining couldn’t stop smiling. In fact, after Jiang Shu won the university Martial Arts genius competition, he’d had the opportunity to leave Fifth High School and transfer directly to the Education Bureau. However, he had chosen to stay. What if the Education Bureau offered better benefits? How could that compare to maintaining a relationship with Jiang Shu? He wouldn’t trade that even for a city leadership position!
"Jiang Tian was one of the first students to switch to the Martial Arts track," Principal Zhang Taining began, a hint of shame in his voice. "To be honest, back then, our school didn’t provide him with much help. We could only grant him ample time and approve his request for a leave of absence..."
