The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

After resolving the matter of Taotie being insulted, Jiang Chuan went to Qing Yinyan's residence.

There, the spirit scroll sensed the last bit of power from its clone.

Jiang Chuan's trip was for this very reason.

"You came."

Qing Yinyan's beautiful eyes lit up with a warm smile when she saw Jiang Chuan arrive.

She got up and personally led Jiang Chuan to her beauty and skincare center.

She has meticulously maintained this coastline, with soft sand on the beach, a gentle sea breeze, and the air filled with the salty dampness of the sea and the fragrance of coconuts.

"The environment here is perfect for relaxing."

As Qing Yinyan spoke, she pointed to a coconut tree not far away, "There are edible coconuts on this coast. I'll get you one to try."

Jiang Chuan accepted the coconut fruit offered by Qing Yinyan. Although he hesitated, he knew that it was Qing Yinyan's kindness and he could not refuse.

He gently peeled open the coconut shell, revealing the tender flesh inside.

The juice from the coconut dripped from his fingertips, releasing an enticing aroma.

Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment, but finally took a big gulp.

The coconut juice is cool and sweet, with a hint of coconut fragrance. It melts in your mouth, making you want to keep drinking it.

Close your eyes and savor this moment of tranquility and delicious taste.

Qing Yinyan stood to the side, smiling as she watched Jiang Chuan. Then she gently walked to Jiang Chuan's side, placed a coconut in his hand, and said, "Jiang Chuan, do you know why I brought you here?"

Jiang Chuan raised his head warily, his gaze sharp, and met Qing Yinyan's eyes.

He knew in his heart that Qing Yinyan had already seen through his identity, and that the invitation at this moment probably had a deeper meaning.

"When did you find out?"

Jiang Chuan asked warily, his aura subtly gathering. He and she were mortal enemies, and he could not afford to be careless.

Qing Yinyan chuckled twice, a hint of smugness in her laughter: "I suspected you when you were treating my athlete's foot. Who would call someone by their name backwards?"

Jiang Chuan was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Qing Yinyan would discover his identity from this detail.

He said nonchalantly, "So what?"

Qing Yinyan walked to the coconut tree and gently shook the branches, causing coconuts to fall one after another.

She picked up a coconut, peeled off the shell, and handed it to Jiang Chuan: "The place where I truly confirmed your identity was the seal at the entrance to the Land of Extreme Tranquility. On that seal, I sensed a faint aura fluctuation that was exactly the same as yours on its surface. Although it was subtle, I still noticed it. I was quite surprised at the time."

Jiang Chuan took the coconut, secretly surprised. He hadn't expected Qing Yinyan to be so powerful, able to sense his aura from the seal. He said calmly, "Surprised? I didn't see it."

Qing Yinyan smiled and shook his head: "You are too confident, Jiang Chuan. You think you are hiding it well, but nothing in this world is absolute. Since I can find out your identity, I can also find your weakness."

"Then tell me what my weaknesses are?" Jiang Chuan asked.

Upon hearing this, Qing Yinyan slowly spoke, her voice like a whisper in the night wind: "Jiang Chuan, your weakness is not actually in your strength or your wisdom, but in your emotions."

Jiang Chuan was taken aback, not expecting Qing Yinyan to analyze his weakness from the perspective of emotions. He sneered, "Emotions? I, Jiang Chuan, have long since become indifferent to worldly affairs. What emotions could possibly affect me?"

Qing Yinyan smiled gently, a hint of pity in her smile: "You're wrong, Jiang Chuan. Your emotions are the softest spot in your heart, the truth you least want to face. To protect yourself, you've buried your emotions deep inside, but they're like an undercurrent, ready to devour you at any moment."

Jiang Chuan fell silent, reflecting on Qing Yinyan's words. He knew he was not a heartless person, but since entering the martial world, he had deliberately hidden his emotions to avoid becoming a weakness for others.

Qing Yinyan's words made him realize that emotions cannot be completely controlled; they can sometimes be revealed unintentionally.

"The reason you are angry about Taotie being insulted is because of your deep loyalty and righteousness towards your friends. The reason you risk your life to protect others is because of your deep respect and appreciation for life."

Qing Yinyan continued, "These emotions, though powerful, could also become your weakness."

"Nonsense! This will only make me stronger!" Jiang Chuan's voice rose a few decibels.

A hint of surprise flashed in Qing Yinyan's eyes; she hadn't expected Jiang Chuan to refute her so directly.

She had assumed that Jiang Chuan would agree with her as usual, or at least not refute her so vehemently.

Jiang Chuan's tone was firm, and his eyes revealed an undeniable confidence.

But she quickly regained her composure, her smile carrying a hint of tolerance: "Jiang Chuan, it's certainly a good thing that you're so confident, but the world is a dangerous place, and people's hearts are unpredictable. Sometimes, excessive confidence can put you in danger."

Jiang Chuan ignored Qing Yinyan's warning, his gaze sharp as he looked directly into Qing Yinyan's eyes: "I have always acted with integrity and a clear conscience. I believe that as long as I stay true to myself, I can overcome any difficulties I encounter."

Qing Yinyan sighed softly. She knew Jiang Chuan's personality; once he made up his mind, he wouldn't change it easily.

She stopped arguing about the topic and changed the subject: "You came here for your friend, am I right?"

Jiang Chuan felt very uncomfortable with Qing Yinyan's calm and unhurried tone, which gave him a sense of superiority.

No, he has to regain his home turf.

Jiang Chuan's tone then turned serious: "Qing Yinyan, you are too presumptuous. I came here for my friends, not for you. As for the Spirit Scroll, it is my brother, so naturally I will protect it."

At this moment, Ling Juan's body appeared, and she said in a serious tone: "It was you who forcibly tore me open without my permission and spied on my inner thoughts."

Qing Yinyan rolled her eyes at Ling Juan's words, agreeing.

She recognized Ling Juan and said, "So it was you. No wonder Jiang Chuan became so strong in such a short time. You must have passed on the secret technique of the Supreme Mythical Sword Art to him."

Jiang Chuan smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of pride: "That's right, I did obtain the secret technique of the Supreme Mythical Sword Art, but all of this was achieved through my own efforts. I did not rely on any external forces, nor did I take any shortcuts. Every step I took was solid and down-to-earth."

Qing Yinyan spoke more gently, saying, "The last wisp of your friend Ling Juan's soul is here."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Qing Yinyan's divine weapon, the Danqing Sword, appeared out of nowhere.

The sword's blade emanates six primordial energies, containing the mysteries of the universe. Each energy seems to be the most original power in the world, serene and profound.

Around the sword, six rays of light intertwined, like six winding dragons and snakes, rotating around the sword to form a perfect circle.

These six rays of light are not ordinary rays of light; they contain different laws and powers, intertwining to form a strange harmony.

The sky instantly darkened, enveloped by an invisible barrier.

The aura emanating from the Danqing Sword was so powerful that it was impossible to look directly at it, and even time seemed to stand still.

Those six primordial auras, like a vortex of reincarnation, inspired awe, as if one were facing the birth and end of the universe.

Qing Yinyan gently wielded the Danqing Sword, its blade slicing through the sky and leaving behind trails of flowing light and color.

Her movements were elegant and fluid, as if she were performing an ancient sword dance.

Each sword strike contains profound internal energy, and each move reveals supreme sword intent.

"This Danqing Sword contains a wisp of your friend's soul. How do you intend to retrieve it?"

"Qing Yinyan said mockingly, her eyes filled with provocation towards Jiang Chuan. Jiang Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly, unmoved by Qing Yinyan's provocation."

Instead, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes: "To retrieve it? Of course, I will rely on my own strength."

His words were firm and authoritative, leaving no room for doubt.

As soon as Jiang Chuan finished speaking, the Dragon Roar Sword emerged from an unexpected place from Qing Yinyan.

The sword, like a giant dragon awakening, leaped out from Jiang Chuan's sleeve, instantly slicing through the air and letting out a deafening dragon's roar.

The dragon's roar echoed through the valley, stirring up waves and proclaiming Jiangchuan's determination to the world.

As Jiang Chuan's natal artifact appeared, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

The Dragon's Roar Sword, a sword that embodies his countless efforts and combat experience.

At this moment, life is in his hands.

Jiang Chuan nodded in satisfaction. The Dragon Roar Sword was an indispensable weapon against an opponent like Qing Yinyan.

The Dragon Roar Sword shimmered with golden light, its blade covered in ancient runes, each rune containing immense power.

Jiang Chuan's fingers gently traced the blade, feeling the temperature and power emanating from it, his gaze sharpening.

“Qing Yinyan, since you have mentioned the spirit scroll’s soul, I will not let go of the secrets within the Danqing Sword.”

Jiang Chuan's voice was firm and powerful, his eyes fixed on the Danqing Sword in Qing Yinyan's hand.

The sword shimmered with intense light, containing boundless energy and mystery.

Jiang Chuan was drawn to the intense heat emanating from Qing Yinyan's Danqing Sword.

It was a power originating from the sword itself, a kind of oppressive force that could make one's soul tremble.

He sensed not only the sharpness of the sword, but also an unfathomable intent within it.

This sword can see into people's hearts and know all secrets.

On the surface of the Danqing sword, the red patterns resemble flowing flames, and each swing is accompanied by a surge of heat.

The flame-like patterns form an invisible barrier around the sword, warning any enemy who dares to approach.

Jiang Chuan knew that this sword was no ordinary object. It was not only a powerful divine weapon, but also a treasure containing ancient heritage. Every inch of it was filled with the sedimentation of history and mysterious power.

Every line on the sword is key to solving an ancient mystery.

These patterns were not carved randomly, but rather formed through the wisdom and effort of countless sages.

Each one contains profound swordsmanship principles and the mysteries of the universe.

Jiang Chuan knew that in order to master the full power of this sword, he had to unravel the secrets behind these patterns.

"Three wisps of primordial energy? Haha..." Qing Yinyan's lips curled into a smug smile, mocking Jiang Chuan's naiveté.

She continued, "Your amateurish skills are no match for mine."

Her eyes revealed a sense of superiority, as if she stood at the top of the food chain, and Jiang Chuan was just a speck of dust beneath her feet.

His words were full of provocation, spoken with ease and confidence.

"Whether it's our own strength or our weaponry, we're far superior to you. What do you have to fight me with?"

Qing Yinyan's words were like sharp swords, piercing Jiang Chuan's pride.

Her strength has reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm.

Jiang Chuan, however, was still at the early stage of the Heavenly Rank, a whole rank apart from the other two.

Jiang Chuan knew that Qing Yinyan was telling the truth.

In this world where strength reigns supreme, what does a difference of one rank mean?

He knows better than anyone.

A mid-stage Heavenly Realm expert not only possesses greater internal strength but is also proficient in various advanced martial arts techniques and combat strategies. In contrast, a mid-stage Heavenly Realm expert like him appears somewhat insignificant in front of Qing Yinyan.

Jiang Chuan did not feel frustrated or desperate because he was already used to finding breakthroughs in adversity.

In his eyes, every battle is an opportunity to surpass himself.

A stage to prove my strength.

He often challenges opponents of higher levels, and against those of similar strength, he is always able to turn the tide with his wisdom and courage, even when at a disadvantage.

In his view, a battle that loses its challenge is like a battle that has lost its soul, becoming utterly tasteless.

Every time Jiang Chuan faces a formidable enemy, he sees it as an opportunity to hone himself, a process that allows him to continuously grow.

He believes that only through continuous challenges and breakthroughs can one truly improve their strength and go further on the path to becoming a strong person.

"I am not alone."

Jiang Chuan's body slowly rose into the air, his clothes moving without wind, as if supported by an invisible force, making him appear exceptionally calm and composed.

As soon as he finished speaking, an incomparably powerful energy surged out from the void rift.

This force, like a surging wave, instantly filled the entire space.

It was Jiangchuan's trump card, which he had never used.

The reason is simple: he has never encountered an opponent worthy of his serious attention.

But Qing Yinyan's appearance changed everything.

Her abilities and knowledge are on par with Jiang Chuan's, and in some aspects she may even be superior.

This forced Jiang Chuan to take this battle seriously.

The spiritual energy transmitted from the void to Jiang Chuan's skull was the result of the wholehearted work of the members of the divination alliance he maintained.

That was a place he had meticulously maintained, all for this moment today.

He knew that only by uniting as one could they unleash their greatest strength when facing a powerful enemy.

Faced with Jiang Chuan's ever-increasing aura, Qing Yinyan's relaxed expression began to waver.

She couldn't understand why the man in front of her could be so arrogant.

He was constantly surprising her.

Every move he made shattered her understanding and shocked her. (End of Chapter)
