Within Jiang Chen's mind, thoughts raced, 'I've reached the Transcendence realm in true combat strength!'

'Now, on the Immortal Martial Continent, I can move without hindrance or fear.'

'The power of the Death Calamity Dark Blood Moon is immense. It let me advance a major realm in no time!' Feeling the surge of this power, a gleam of excitement lit his eyes.

Shortly, he pivoted and flew towards Ji Mingxiu and the rest.

Ji Mingxiu and the other nine Dao Palace realm elites stood, faces awash with disbelief, watching Jiang Chennow transformed into a dragon-human hybrid formapproach.

Earlier, these nine had joined forces against Ji Junhao and his team in a three-on-nine skirmish. It would have taken them longer to win without going all out, risking their very lives.

Yet, Jiang Chen, with his strength, dispatched all three from Ji Junhao's side effortlessly, as if swatting away insignificant ants.

"Is that truly you, Jiang Chen?" Ji Mingxiu inhaled deeply, his eyes reflecting both excitement and apprehension.

"It is indeed me," Jiang Chen replied, a faint smile on his face. "I carry the true dragon bloodline and have ascended to the Dao Palace realm."

Everyone present sharply inhaled, taken aback.

While they had seen Jiang Chen's dragon-like transformation and held their guesses, his open acknowledgment left them profoundly taken aback.

The true dragon bloodline is known to reach at least the Third Step of the Cultivation Path!

For someone with this bloodline, like Jiang Chen, the Immortal Martial Continent would seem like a mere puddle.

"In the cultivation world, Jiang Chen, we honor those who reach heights of greatness," Ji Mingxiu remarked, his voice filled with both joy and sentiment. "I'm no longer worthy to call myself your master."

"Yet, Teacher, it was you who showed me the way. That's something I'll always remember," Jiang Chen responded, his face earnest as he nodded.

"Hahahaha! Well said!" Ji Mingxiu erupted in hearty laughter, then became solemn, nodding his agreement.

Suddenly, voices echoed, "Lord Jiang Chen!"

"We let greed cloud our judgment and turned against our brethren from the Purple Heaven Holy Land."

"Given our earnest efforts in battling the demons and those who delve into demonic cultivation, we beseech you to show mercy!"

Bao Xunwu, along with others from the Golden Proud Cult, hastily knelt, bowing deeply to Jiang Chen.

With an indifferent look, Jiang Chen surveyed Bao Xunwu and his compatriots. "While I might spare you from the ultimate penalty," he began steadily, "you will not escape punishment."

"You must repay a hundredfold for the lives you took from the Purple Heaven Holy Land. Additionally, you are to make amends through meritorious deeds."

He finished, "The specifics? I'll entrust that to my teacher."

Taking in Jiang Chen's decision, Bao Xunwu bowed low, voice shaking, "Thank you, Lord Jiang Chen, for such grace! We vow to right our wrongs, confronting the demon race with all our might and guarding the Immortal Martial Continent!"

"Thank you, Lord Jiang Chen!" Simultaneously, the utterances of the other two Supreme Elders of the Golden Proud Cult mirrored Bao Xunwu's, with clear relief etched on their faces and evident gratitude shining in their eyes.

Being granted clemency by Jiang Chen meant they not only preserved their lives but also gained affiliation with Jiang Chen's potent influence. Even if they only held peripheral roles in Jiang Chen's close-knit group, it still indicated they had his favor.

Eyeing those around him, Jiang Chen spoke earnestly, "Currently, most of the elite demonic cultivators in the Vibrant Blaze Domain have been eradicated."

"Yet, the Vibrant Blaze Domain is now heavily dominated by the demon race. The taint runs deep, and the junior cultivators have endured unspeakable torment at the hands of the Demons. We need to save them."

"It's likely the remaining members of the Burning Blaze Ancient Sect are aware of Ji Junhao and his team's downfall and might be in retreat."

"Thus, it's imperative you all mobilize at once. As for this Cave Heaven, there will be plenty of time to delve into its depths later." He finished, emphasizing the immediate priorities.

"Lord Jiang Chen, if we're dispatched to the Vibrant Blaze Domain, where do you intend to go? You aren't contemplating a journey to the Pure Frost Domain, are you?" Si Zhangjian inquired, evident astonishment etched on his face.

Beyond the Vibrant Blaze Domain, the Pure Frost Domain was another territory that had succumbed in the Immortal Martial Continent.

Yet, regarding the machinations around the Doomsday Cave Heaven, the Pure Frost Domain remained uninvolved.

"I have no such plans. My intention is to keep preparing for the 'Number One Prodigy of the Immortal Martial Continent' conference," Jiang Chen responded, shaking his head and grinning.

Hearing Jiang Chen's plans, the expressions of everyone present froze in sheer astonishment.

Wouldn't the logical move for Jiang Chen be to concentrate on ousting the demons and demonic cultivators in the Pure Frost Domain?

Why then would he place greater importance on a mere title over such a pressing issue?

Such decisions didn't resonate with the foresight expected of a leader.

Had arrogance clouded Jiang Chen's judgment?

It wasn't just Bao Xunwu from the Golden Proud Cult who was left scratching his head. Ji Mingxiu, Lu An, and others too were deeply perplexed.

Jiang Chen responded evenly, "Don't jump to conclusions. The 'Number One Prodigy of the Immortal Martial Continent' conference isn't just a simple event, but a calculated strategy."

"The details of this plan will become clear to you in due time." His lips curved subtly, keeping the intricacies to himself.

From his deductions, even if the Pure Frost Domain hadn't engaged in the present plot, they were likely to enter the fray in the future.

The most plausible expectation was their orchestration of a surprise assault right as the 'Number One Prodigy of the Immortal Martial Continent' conference neared its end, aiming to wipe out the brightest talents of the Immortal Martial Continent in a single strike.

Such a plan was designed to cut the root of their lineage.

While these young talents might not yet match the battle prowess of the more seasoned warriors, they embody the Immortal Martial Continent's forthcoming era.

Should these promising figures face obliteration, the Immortal Martial Continent would confront a bleak horizon, possibly capitulating without putting up a fight.
