Chapter 1012: Chapter 548: Forbidden Heavenly Pride of the Star Ruins Realm

The Piaomiao Star Alliance may lack the deep foundations of the mightiest factions, but it is still incomparable to ordinary forces.

Even Bei Jue couldn’t find the thing, which can basically be considered one of the greatest secrets in the cosmos.

"Lord Jiang."

The valiant woman named Yu Tianming walked in quickly, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes when she saw Bei Jue there. She then turned to Jiang Shu, who was seated at the head, and continued,

"Guests have come claiming to be from the War Alliance, named Zhan Feng and Zhan Yun, and are currently waiting in the side hall."

When her words fell, before Jiang Shu could reply, Bei Jue stood up with an extremely serious expression.

"Wind Cloud Pride?!"

Jiang Shu was unfamiliar with these ancient enigmas and thus didn’t know what these two represented. He looked at Bei Jue and asked, "Are they very strong?"

Bei Jue looked at Jiang Shu, nodded slowly, and said, "It’s not simply describable as very strong; more accurately, they are unbeatable in their realm!"

Wind Cloud Pride, born in the era before Bei Jue.

"These two hail from the War Alliance, direct bloodlines of one of the top three Vice Alliance Hierarchs of the War Alliance, with extremely long lifespans. They’ve sealed themselves since ancient times, emerging occasionally to challenge supreme geniuses from various factions, never tasting defeat until now."

"Were it not for their pursuit of higher realms, they could continue cultivating until reaching the Eleventh Realm."

A single sentence suffices to convey the power of this sibling duo.

In every era, geniuses emerge like salmon swimming up a river, but they can cross multiple eras and suppress all geniuses; indeed, they deserve the title ’unbeatable’.

"Looks like your recent reputation has attracted their attention."

Bei Jue gazed at Jiang Shu with a hint of curiosity.

"Wind Cloud Pride, both practitioners of the orthodox Law of Power. You’re likely not going to avoid their entanglement."

Previously mentioned was that the orthodox cultivation method of the Law of Power involves seeking breakthroughs between life and death — they are born cultivation lunatics.

Even one alone is headache-inducing.

Yet this duo is siblings, each more powerful than the other.

Others would undoubtedly feel overwhelmed, trying in every way to avoid conflict with these two, as any injury could greatly impact opportunities in the Deep Space Sea.

But in Bei Jue’s eyes, Jiang Shu’s gaze exploded with unprecedented excitement and joy.

"The Law of Power? Not bad."

With further cultivation, Jiang Shu increasingly feels the difficulty of walking his path. He urgently needs peers to verify one another, aiming to advance further before venturing into the Deep Space Sea. The arrival of Wind Cloud Pride might actually further his Power Dao.

Most importantly, the Power Dao he comprehends is different from other Daos.

He has a specialized Taoist Scripture for cultivation.

There’s a chance he might forge breakthroughs during battle.

Only then did Bei Jue recall that this man also cultivates the Law of Power, and judging by his demeanor, he too adheres to the orthodox cultivation method of the Law of Power.

In the Star Ruins Realm, those cultivating the same law.

If not enemies, they might become close allies.

"Then I shall take my leave for now; I’ve gained further insight in my recent cultivation, time to retreat for a while."

Bei Jue hadn’t been out for long, having witnessed several duels among prideful figures this time around, verifying some understanding of the law.

After speaking, and without waiting for Jiang Shu’s nod, she stepped into the void, disappearing.

...

"The rules outside are multiplying, making one uncomfortable."

In the side hall, Zhan Feng sat upright on a wide chair and suddenly said.

Zhan Yun coughed lightly twice, speaking softly, "Brother, while we’re outside, we need to follow their rules. As the saying goes, more courtesy is never a fault; we’re here to make friends, not to fight."

Zhan Feng waved his hand dismissively.

"Alright, alright."

Making friends is merely an excuse for sparring in the future, isn’t it?

Just as Zhan Feng finished speaking, a hearty laugh rang out from outside the hall: "Brother Zhan Feng, please feel free; we cultivators needn’t be bound by such things."

Upon hearing this voice, Zhan Feng instantly became excited, standing up and walking towards Jiang Shu, who walked into the great hall. He laughed loudly, "I’ve long heard of Brother Jiang’s renowned name; today, seeing you in person, indeed you’re different from ordinary folk."

His voice was extraordinarily loud, causing the palace to resonate with a buzzing sound.

Compared to her brother, Zhan Yun appeared slightly more reserved, standing up and cupping her fists in salute to Jiang Shu.

"Greetings, Brother Jiang."

Jiang Shu welcomed the pair to sit, instructing Yu Tianming to serve some fine delicacies.

Upon hearing Jiang Shu’s words, Yu Tianming snapped back to reality, forcibly suppressing her inner panic as she walked outside.

This entire life, Wind Cloud Pride has been amidst killings; though smiling now, the aura of slaughter surrounding them is indelible, and their blood and energy are like dragons, merely standing there exert a strong pressure.

She was merely at the Ninth Realm, not having started comprehending a law, making it naturally hard to resist.

Zhan Feng looked Jiang Shu up and down, then sighed with admiration, "Brother Jiang, your energy is abundant, hidden in your veins and dantian, usually unseen. But in a fight, it can instantly explode; truly remarkable."

His heart stirred, unable to contain the battle lust within.
