Chapter Forty-Four: One Step to Heaven

ere cold numbers, allowing them to gauge the situation but not affecting their emotions.Yang Jiande entrusted the battlefield to the veteran Ji Cheng, but he himself only kept his eyes on Chong Xuan a...Since the old dragon Morihei was locked in the Yuheng Star Tower, three years have passed.

For the past three years, he has been seizing every opportunity to make a move, stirring up trouble whenever there's something or nothing at all. Although he has never succeeded, he has already made Jiang Wang accustomed to his presence, accustomed to his helplessness.

For a whole three years!

Now everything should be cooked through.

He also looked like a world-weary, jaded man.

From threats and insults to gentle persuasion, and finally, taking a positive attitude and enthusiastically planning the landlord's life for them.

His posture was so graceful, perhaps Jiang Wang was already planning how to use him as a mount. He wanted to emulate the past world-honored one and become the first dragon tamer in the present world.

Before he revealed his true intentions, he still acted nonchalantly, discussing the art of seduction with Jiang Wang and even explaining how he had seduced a nun at Tianfo Temple.

The boy was listening with relish.

And just like that, in a casual and nonchalant chat, the true name was casually brought up.

Prior to this, he had never revealed his real name...Who would have thought that a name couldn't even be uttered

This is not some kind of Pánwǔ clan, Yuánhóng clan, or Xīhún clan!

Actually, a real name is also called that.

During those years he fled the East China Sea, countless sea clan compatriots cursed and berated him, but it didn't affect him at all.

But after the profound structure of the celestial map was revealed, when the gate to the universe's myriad wonders opened, this true name became a great key, unlocking the path he had meticulously prepared many years ago.

Here, in the Xingyue Origin, the closest place to the Starry Sky in this world, this road has become so near!

Even if he didn't say it today, Jiang Wang would one day investigate the dragon that was involved in the dispute between the Haizu and Tai Yong. He could learn this name naturally that way.

Imagine such a day, the cautious Xia Jiang Wang quietly went to investigate his old man's story and learned his real name. Suddenly, one day he shouted out, wanting to startle his old man, and as a result...

It's just that Jiang Wang's cultivation progress is too fast, and the recent atmosphere is so good that he doesn't dare or want to wait any longer.

The moment his true name was revealed, Jiang Wang's soul manifested in its divine form and was swept into the cosmic gateway of myriad wonders.

And now, under the starry night sky, starlight flows like a waterfall, and every star shines brightly.

Stars shimmer over the Jade Capital.

Jiang Wang sat cross-legged on the top floor of Baiyu Jing Wine House in his physical body, and was enveloped by starlight in an instant. His figure flickered and disappeared.

Jingli, lying on the bed next to him, was awakened abruptly from a blissful dream. In an instant, the vajra body manifested, his whole being radiant with Buddha light. Even though he was still half asleep, the sound of Sanskrit chanting had already begun. Without even thinking, he jumped up and rushed to Jiang Wang's side, reaching out to grab his arm—but only grasped handfuls of starlight.

Even the starlight touched him.

And he disappeared too!

On a night in Starmoon Plains, one often feels dazed because the darkness hangs so low, as if stars could be plucked from the sky with a hand's reach. But for the strong, this is not an illusion.

Tonight, someone opened the gate to the universe's wonders. With this one step, one can ascend to heaven!

On this ordinary night, it wasn't just Jiang Wang who left, nor was it just Jing Li.

When something happened in their bedroom, the first to notice was Xi Mie, a master of the Mo family who lived on the same floor as them.

Jiang Wang arranged for him to live on the twelfth floor, intending to supervise him and Jingli closely himself, thereby controlling the risk.

Of course, Xi Ming could also feel Jiang Wang's vigilance towards him.

When such a surging stellar wave came from next door, his first reaction was——in order to celebrate the union of Wei and Huang Jinmo, Jiang Wang wanted to make a move against me!

The first question in his mind was—what was the point of doing this besides courting death

Then comes the counterattack.

Even as powerful as he was, to dare reside in the Baiyu Pavilion during such a time, and even after Jiang Wang clearly stated that he couldn't mediate between Wei and Huang Yin's situation, he still insisted on staying for the last night... He naturally didn't harbor any fear.

He didn't bother to think about Jiang Wang's motives; he just wanted to teach him a lesson.

>

The other side has formed their battle lines with starlight. I imagine the outside of this building is now filled with killers.

He decisively walked in the opposite direction.

With a single hand, he formed a seal and drew out a menacing crossbow from the void. The moment he leapt into the air, armor covered his body, and azure flames erupted around him. Instead of fleeing, he charged headfirst into Jiang Wang's room —

He crashed into a dazzling shower of stars!

Like a stone sinking into the sea, it disappears without a trace.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

What kind of trap is this!

The surging starlight abruptly invaded perception, disturbing not only Qing Meng.

At the same time on the twelfth floor, Lian Yuchang leaped from her position, holding both swords upside down. Her steps landed silently as she rushed towards Jiang Wang's room, like a colorful butterfly entering a sea of light.

But within those beautiful eyes, there was no trace of Jiang Wang. All she saw was an ancient and mysterious portal standing in the boundless starry sea.

She leaped backward, wanting to observe more and make a move when the opportunity arose. But she was already out of control, caught by the starlight, and blindly rushed into this door.

The sudden thunderclap echoed through the building. The two prodigious talents living downstairs couldn't possibly remain oblivious to it.

Bai Yu Xia perceived the commotion upstairs earlier, but Lin Xian Zhi's carefree nature caused him to rush into Jiang Wang's room first... and vanish into the starry sea before anyone else.

The white jade Bi Xu, her sword glowing with ethereal energy, followed closely behind. She tried to resist the overwhelming starlight, searching for Jiang Wang within the starry river, but was swept away by the celestial light.

A boundless expanse of starlight filled nearly the entire Jade Palace Pavilion.

From the top it surged to the bottom, then rolled back up to the top. A sudden flash, and then it vanished.

Tonight, the stars and moon shine brightly in a calm sky.

Tonight, the Baiyu Jing Restaurant is deserted.

>

The kitchen in the back yard was still warm with simmering porridge and stews, making gurgling noises.

...Xia Guo refugee Han Shao, who hadn't yet figured out where to go or what to do, had been sponging off others for a few days. Tonight, after eating and drinking his fill, he was still curled up in the firewood shed, sleeping soundly...

A good day begins with a crisp earlobe.

Han Shao, with his rather burly appearance, was having the dream of successfully restoring his country and taking revenge on Tian Anping. The searing pain on his face, like a sudden steel blade, brutally shattered his dream.

He woke up, covering his face innocently, opening his eyes to see a crowd of faces huddled together.

The waiters and cooks from the Baiyu Jing Restaurant, a motley crew of all sorts, gathered around him, chattering incessantly.

"Where has the host gone"

"Where is Bai the shopkeeper"

Where is Dr. Lin

"The scoundrel, return my beloved girl!!"

“Where is everyone in the building! What happened”

Han Shao was filled with confusion - I want to know too!

But seeing the crowd in such disarray, he knew that if he didn't give an explanation, he might have to explain himself here today.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

“Stop shouting! I’m so annoyed!” He yelled angrily, startling everyone.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

He cast his sharp eyes around, a flash of reckless anger in them, and roared, "Where my East Family went has nothing to do with you lot! You've turned the world upside down!"

He sat down on the ground with his legs spread wide, poking at the sky with his fingers: "Are you the head of the household Are you Or are you"

Here is the translation:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment. How did this scoundrel become like a trusted confidant of the master Wasn't he an assassin

Han Shao didn't wait for these people to react, and he got up again. With his burly physique and arrogant attitude, he was indeed intimidating: "The master has something urgent to attend to, so he took Bai Guanshi and the others out. Before leaving, he instructed me to tell you that everything in the shop is as usual. They'll be back soon, don't even think about taking advantage of the situation or making trouble – understand"

He casually pulled out a twig and pretended to strike someone: "Go do your own thing!"

The crowd dispersed in a flurry.

“Darn it!” Han Shao tossed the firewood aside and lay back down, grumbling, “Can’t even get a decent sleep!”

But half-curled on the ground, his eyes were impossible to close.

So many people... where did they go

What can I do if it doesn't come back

Jiang Wang also wanted to know where he came from and what to do!

You scoundrel Ao Kui, you old rascal Long!

Though I was cautious, extremely careful, and never trusted him, I still fell for his trick!

The technique is fine, the Void Illusionary Realm has risen to the twelfth level of the Dao Platform which can be witnessed.

The cultivation process went smoothly, he had studied each step repeatedly.

The seal on Old Thief Dragon shouldn't be a problem, it was left by Senior Guan Yan's Star Deity methods.

Where is the problem

Combining the cultivation methods of celestial charts and esoteric diagrams, he had a vague guess in his heart.

Please note that I can only translate the text content within the tags. I cannot interpret or modify the HTML tags themselves. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The problem probably lies in the real name that Morihei Ryu told!

This treacherous and vile old rogue, Long, uses his true name as the key to Xuan Gu.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Within one's own Xuan Gu star chart, upon successfully constructing one's personal cosmic gateway of wonders, one induces oneself to chant its true name and release this key. By leveraging one's own power, one successfully summons the cosmic gateway of wonders named "Ao Kui"!

... while the cosmic gate of wonders of Lao Long Ao Kui was obviously established in the world repeatedly described by him, a world that retained Wu Han Gong's legacy!

The Buddhist artifact he had stolen through seducing Lao Ni, is clearly also here.

...is not in the Sea of Source!

Old Dragon Ao Kui when he was escaping, in order to evade the pursuers, apparently separated the Heaven Buddha artifact and himself into two different paths. He hid the Heaven Buddha artifact in one place, and hid his dragon body in another.

Perhaps this is why he was unable to borrow power from the Quan Yan senior during their struggle, that Heavenly Buddha artifact was not in the Sen Hai Yuan Realm at all, he hadn't had time to take it out yet.

With these thoughts racing through his mind, Jiang Wang, after entering the cosmic gate of his own wondrous realm, quickly communicated with his Starry Palace. His voice was laced with shock and anger as he asked, "Senior Ao Kui, what's going on Why did I suddenly lose control and be swept up by the galaxy here I trusted you so much, did you set me up to harm me Where do you want to take me"

The ancient dragon Sen-Ei, locked in the basement cell, returned a gaze of even greater bewilderment, calling out to Kutsu: "I don't know! What happened I was imprisoned, both body and soul, how could I have harmed you"

He shook the chain, which rattled loudly: "Was it your Xuan Gu that went wrong Or did you accidentally bump into the cosmic gate with the tide of stars Don't worry, little friend, tell me in detail how you did it, and I'll see where the problem lies!"

The physical body is swept away by the starry sea in the vast universe, and for now, it can only drift with the waves.

The incarnation of the soul fell into the Jade Heng Star Pavilion, Jiang Wang's voice was dazed: "I don't know either, every step followed your method, come and have a look—"

He tapped the floor with his toes, making it transparent so he could look at the old dragon. Then he flipped his palm and produced a star chart, handing it to the old dragon locked in the base stone chamber.

When looking at the old dragon raising its head.

Suddenly manifesting the bearing of a sword immortal, his whole body shimmering with light, he poured the power of the Jade Ruler Star Pavilion into a single sword strike that cleaved through the foundation stone chamber!

At the same time, he mobilized the restrictions left by Guan Yan's predecessors, frantically plundering the power of the old dragon to drain it into a desiccated corpse.

He didn't want to hear any more about the truth or seek answers. No matter where the starlight took him, he would just find his own way back.

But for this old dragon, there truly cannot be another chance given to it. If possible, kill it immediately!

"You little scoundrel! How wicked you are! We've lived together for so long, and you just flip out on me like this Do you even have any humanity!"

The old dragon Ao Kuei roared furiously, but his golden eyes remained cruel and cold.

>

The restriction left by Xing Jun Guanyan, he was indeed unable to break it.

He lured Jiang Wang here, using his own strength against him.

The celestial chart's mystical arrangement was genuine and true. Every martial art technique he bestowed upon Jiang Wang was real, without any concealed methods. Over these years, every clumsy performance, every exposed deception, every ignored lie, was merely a setup, a way to make the young Jiang Wang believe that his breakthrough in dragon-awakening was near success.

It's just that, in this critical moment tonight, it feels natural to have a relaxed and easy conversation.

What is three years

Given the circumstances, he wouldn't mind laying out another five hundred years.

Of course, he couldn't resist Guanyan's restrictions. In an environment like Yuhengxinglou, Jiang Wang, who had gradually grown to his current strength, was indeed capable of killing him.

>

But this is no longer the world.

>

This place is no longer at the Yu Heng.

He painstakingly plotted to lure Jiang Wang over, to a place he had prepared as an escape route for himself many years ago. Relying on the sealed Heavenly Buddha artifact, his universe's wondrous gate was located right here!

“Young friend, we've met briefly. Why be so ruthless Let us forgive each other and live our lives freely.”

Old Dragon Ao Kui roared repeatedly, but he couldn't stop his dragon body from being mercilessly dissolved. Within the prison cell, flesh and blood peeled away.

>

This cell was furnished by the late Senior Guanyin. Jiang Wang could enter and exit, as could Sha Zhuo, but Lao Long could not.

Jiang Wang sadly pleaded, “We’ve known each other for years, and it hurts to see you leave. Why don’t you stay a little longer and keep company with your old friends”

The chains tightened, constricting the dragon's body and relentlessly crushing its scales. Golden scales flew everywhere as the old dragon roared in agony.

Under the blessing of starlight, the sword energy, terrifying in its might, mingled with the unyielding storm of Heaven's Will, assuming an extremely sharp form that nearly filled every corner of the prison cell.

However, in the process of dissolving this magnificent dragon's body, a silhouette flew across Ao Kui's gigantic golden dragon eyes, becoming clearer and more vibrant—

A golden little dragon came into existence out of nothing, gradually revealing its full form, with sharp horns and claws!

Old Dragon Ao Kui roared to the sky: "With my true name, I call upon Longmen. With Longmen, I summon myself! Who knew that today, I would dream of the past!"

At this time, the starlight surged like a flood, engulfing Jiang Wang's true form. It had pierced through the gate of wonders of his own universe and was racing through the vast cosmos.

And on the far side, another cosmic wonder portal stands tall, becoming increasingly visible.

>

The two Daoist characters "Ao Kui" glowed with golden light, imprinted upon them. He pushed open the heavy door of this gate.

Stars flow like a rainbow bridge, connecting this gate to the other.

The old dragon imprisoned in the stone chamber beneath the Yu Heng Tower, a tiny golden dragon swimming within its eye, suddenly leaped. It surged from the dragon's eye like it had jumped out of a sea of gold—

With an unparalleled freedom, it lightly flew out of the azure seven-layered stone pagoda and plunged into the starry and mysterious gate.

The Golden Cicada has shed its shell, the dragon body enters the Dragon Gate!

Seeing that this guy was about to run, Jiang Wang immediately unleashed his ultimate move -

He suddenly urged the Yu Heng Star Tower, with its majestic stellar power, calling out to the eternally brilliant Yu Heng Main Star deep in the universe.

It sounded like a wooden mallet striking a bronze bell.

In the mysterious and long-lasting sound, the seven stars faded.

In the depths of this vast universe, somehow a phantom copper bowl emerged, gently tapped—

The vast expanse of stars, all gathered into one bowl.
