I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

Everyone else was startled by this sudden scene. The white crocodile ignored Jiang Changkong and charged towards Shen Ming.

"how so?!"

"Perhaps it's the effect of the imperial decree, but the white crocodile still can't harm the Jiang family disciples!"

This view is widely accepted; no matter what, Shen Ming is an outsider.

Even Jiang Changkong thought so.

“Mysterious Heavenly Son, you can’t blame me for this.”

He was somewhat gloating and didn't miss the opportunity to contemplate the power of the heavens.

"wrong!"

Jiang Churan knew that Shen Ming was not only a disciple of the Jiang family, but also the heir apparent, and there must be some hidden story behind it!

The enormous white crocodile, like an ancient ferocious beast, stirred up massive waves and rode them in with its gaping maw wide open.

Shen Ming remained unfazed, flicked his wrist, and a round halo flew out, shimmering with dazzling golden light.

"Mysterious Heavenly Wheel!"

Jiang Yan was the first to recognize the Xuan Tian Supreme Treasure, a Dao Weapon!

No wonder Xuan Yuan dared to send Xuan Tian Shen Zi to take action; Dao soldiers are indeed capable of killing fourth-order demons.

However, Shen Ming was not the supreme ruler of heaven, and if he was not careful, he would be doomed.

The Xuan Tian Wheel unleashed a dazzling light, hurtling towards the white crocodile with a whooshing sound.

Sensing the threat posed by the Xuan Tian Wheel, the white crocodile roared to the sky and swung its massive tail, attempting to knock the Xuan Tian Wheel away.

The Xuan Tian Wheel moved with incredible speed, instantly bypassing the white crocodile's attack and precisely looping around its neck.

The Xuan Tian Wheel shone brightly, and an overwhelming force surged forth, tightly binding the white crocodile.

The white crocodile struggled frantically, its massive body twisting and turning as it tried to break free from the Xuan Tian Lun's restraints.

"disease!"

Shen Ming formed hand seals, activating the Dao weapon.

The Xuan Tian Wheel tightened continuously, and the scales on the white crocodile's neck began to crack, gushing out blood.

The white crocodile let out a desperate roar and collapsed with a thud.

The Xuan Tian Wheel did not retract; instead, it sensed something.

From the white crocodile's corpse, wisps of pale blue water-attribute energy rose up like silk threads.

These water-based energies are pure and powerful.

The Xuan Tian Wheel slowly rotated, releasing a powerful suction force.

As if summoned, those strands of water-attribute energy rushed rapidly toward the Xuan Tian Wheel.

It traces graceful arcs in the air before being continuously absorbed by the Xuan Tian Wheel.

As water-attribute energy continues to flow in, the ring representing the water attribute on the outside of the Xuan Tian Wheel becomes dazzlingly bright.

"Be careful!" Jiang Yan warned.

It turned out that while the Xuan Tian Lun was fully absorbing the water-attribute energy released after the white crocodile died, the giant python with black horns suddenly attacked.

Amidst the towering waves, a glint of anger and vigilance flashed in its eerie green eyes.

Suddenly, the giant python raised its head, and the black horns on its head began to gleam with an eerie light.

In an instant, a deadly water arrow shot out from that dark corner.

The water arrow was like a blue lightning bolt; wherever it passed, space seemed to be torn apart, emitting a sharp sound.

The water arrow was extremely fast, and it was already close in the blink of an eye.

Its powerful water-attribute energy is enough to penetrate everything.

This was exactly what Jiang Yan had been worried about: the Xuan Tian Wheel could deal with fourth-order demons, but Shen Ming himself was too fragile.

"Aren't you going to take action yet?"

He found that Xuan Yuan remained unmoved.

As the deadly water arrow hurtled towards him like a blue lightning bolt, Shen Ming's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He suddenly swung his right fist, the wind from which was fierce, carrying an indomitable momentum.

The fist struck the water arrow like a small mountain, and at the moment of impact, a deafening roar erupted.

The powerful impact spread outwards, creating a spray of water everywhere.

The surrounding space seemed to be distorted by this force, emitting a series of buzzing sounds.

Amidst the dazzling light, the water arrows were forced back little by little.

The water arrow gradually deformed under Shen Ming's powerful strength, and finally shattered with a crash, turning into countless water droplets that splashed in all directions.

"this?!"

Jiang Yanhe and the Jiang family disciples who witnessed this scene were dumbfounded.

Is this still the Earthly Sovereign? What kind of physical power is this?

Xuan Yuan grinned and leaned back, saying, "This is what it means to be the Supreme Dragon God."

Jiang Churan couldn't help but smile, but thankfully everyone else's attention was on Shen Ming.

Suddenly, Xuan Yuan sensed an unusual aura.

The giant python was enraged when it saw that Shen Ming had withstood its fatal blow.

The giant python writhed violently, churning the surrounding water into a frenzied upheaval.

The black horns on its head rapidly transformed like burning flames, changing color from black to red, until they became a bright red like blood.

As Black Horn undergoes its transformation, the giant python's aura also surges wildly.

Its body began to swell, its scales shimmered with an eerie blood-red light, and its eyes were filled with rage and slaughter.

"No, this is a transformation into a dragon! A fifth-order demon!" Jiang Yan exclaimed.

Xuan Yuan couldn't sit still any longer. A fifth-tier demon was comparable to a Sovereign Realm expert, and he might not even be able to handle it underwater.

Just as he was about to make a move, the blood dragon stirred up a monstrous wave, carrying Shen Ming into the riverbed and disappearing from everyone's sight.

"Brother Xuanyuan, don't be impulsive, we're in the water..."

Jiang Yan had just tried to dissuade him, saying it was unwise to confront a fifth-tier demon underwater, but before he could finish speaking, Xuan Yuan had already rushed down.

……

On Void Island, the Jiang family's higher-ups are still diligently refining the Dragon-Slaying Platform.

Although the Dragon-Slaying Platform is for recognizing a master, necessary attempts must be made before the rightful master appears.

The Demon-Slaying Platform still stands like a sacred monument in the center of the Void Island.

Void Island is the main base of the main lineage, and under normal circumstances, other lineages are not allowed to enter or leave it.

However, refining the Demon-Slaying Platform requires gathering all the power of the Jiang family, which only Void Island can do.

The Dragon-Slaying Platform was forged from azure-gold divine stone, radiating pure and dazzling light.

The golden runes on the sacred stone danced like flames, auspicious energy wafted around it, colorful rays of light shimmered, and golden clouds drifted leisurely.

Before it awoke, the Dragon-Slaying Platform was rusty and dull.

The space where the Dragon-Slaying Platform is located is filled with runes that resemble blazing flames.

The refining fire of the Jiang family gathers the power of all the ancestors of the ancestral court.

When everyone was nearing their limit, one person on the Dragon-Slaying Platform remained unmoved.

"All right."

The First Ancestor sighed and waved his hand.

The others were already exhausted and dispirited.

"If the method remains the same, it won't work even if you try ten thousand times. Give up."

The First Ancestor said helplessly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Dragon-Slaying Platform shook violently, almost shaking the entire Void Island.

In an instant, the Jiang family's top brass cast fervent glances.

The blades on the Dragon-Slaying Platform gleamed with an indestructible, cold light.

With a snap, the blade fell, splitting the space itself.

The members of the Jiang family couldn't help but stand up, their eyes wide open.

They had been refining it for months without any such effect, but this happened after they gave up.

"The Dragon-Slaying Platform has sensed the chosen one! Quickly, open the Void Island and check the surrounding area!" the First Ancestor exclaimed excitedly.
