Jiangnan Base City, Jiangnan Shanshui Community — Huayaofeng Villa.
"Since the first day of this month, he's dominated the Black Dragon List and held first place without wavering. Jiang Yan has created a legend."
Venina's exquisite face was filled with a relaxed smile. She leaned back on the sofa, a crystal wineglass swirling lightly in her hand. Her long, snow-white legs crossed elegantly, the golden, form-fitting battle armor outlining her flawless curves.
"His potential far exceeds our expectations. It's almost certain that he'll grow into an existence beyond the God of War."
She was genuinely pleased.
Investing in Jiang Yan early was, without question, the most correct decision she had ever made.
Opposite her, Li Yao sat in a training uniform, his expression equally satisfied.
"You really do have sharp eyes, Venina," Li Yao said with a chuckle. "You invested early and secured a powerful backer for us. With someone like him behind us, even if we encounter something we can't handle in the future, we'll still have a way out."
Venina smiled faintly but did not deny it.
After a brief pause, Li Yao continued seriously, "Jiang Yan has only been in the elite training camp for a month, yet his growth rate is already terrifying. Give it a few more months and his strength may surpass ours entirely. I think that before he truly reaches a level beyond the God of War, we should deepen our contact with him. Otherwise, once he stands at that height, even meeting him will be difficult."
Venina nodded slowly.
"You're right." She thought for a moment, then said, "The elite training camp is basically in its rest period for the next two or three days. I happen to be free as well. I'll go see Jiang Yan—and visit Wei'er while I'm at it."
At the global headquarters of the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.
That night, Hong personally contacted Jiang Yan.
The two spoke at length about Luo Feng's current situation. After offering several suggestions, Jiang Yan took the opportunity to ask Hong about his own cultivation experiences, particularly regarding domains and higher-level applications of power. Only after a long discussion did the call finally end.
Back in the cultivation room, Jiang Yan exhaled softly.
"So domains are divided into four stages—foundation, artistic conception, domain, and world… I haven't even stepped into the foundation stage yet."
A domain was formed through the fusion of genetic energy, physical power, spiritual power, and consciousness, inducing resonance with the universe itself. Once formed, it could suppress opponents while greatly amplifying one's own combat power.
"Slow and steady," Jiang Yan muttered with a faint smile.
His mind moved, and dozens of flying knives rose into the air, weaving through a complex, twisting trajectory like living things. This was a specialized method of cultivating spiritual power, demanding both precision and endurance.
When the spiritual power in his sea of consciousness was completely exhausted, Jiang Yan finally stopped.
A system prompt appeared:
[Spiritual Master Progress +1]
Jiang Yan smiled.
As long as he continued to cultivate, progress would accumulate day by day—occasionally accompanied by critical breakthroughs. At this pace, breaking into the God of War–level spiritual realm was only a matter of time.
After leaving the cultivation room, he found Jiang Fang and Janet already waiting for him.
These days, he essentially lived here. The environment was excellent, and it was convenient for the three of them to study cultivation methods and the mysteries of life's origin together.
The next day.
Jiang Yan sat at a roundtable meeting alongside Wang Yu and the other global inspectors. The topic was Luo Feng's formal recruitment into the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.
In the end, Hong personally drafted the contract.
"Before August this year," Jiang Yan said with a smile as he handed it to Luo Feng, "if your combat power amplification reaches twelve, you'll receive a drop of dragon blood worth eighty billion."
This was one of Hong's rewards—generous and sincere.
"Brother Jiang," Luo Feng asked excitedly, "is dragon blood really that powerful?"
He had seen it mentioned in the student manual, but had never truly understood its effects.
"It is," Jiang Yan replied with a nod. "I've used it myself. It greatly enhances physical fitness. But its greatest effect is on warriors like you, whose physical body is still at the general level. If you use it now, your physical fitness can jump directly to near high-level war general territory."
Luo Feng's eyes widened.
A high-level war general!
His current physical fitness was only at the junior general level. To leap two major tiers at once—it was almost unbelievable.
No wonder it was worth eighty billion.
Jiang Yan patted Luo Feng on the shoulder. "Train hard. Try to raise your physical fitness to at least the intermediate—or even high-level—war general stage before August."
What Jiang Yan wanted most was for Luo Feng to grow as quickly as possible.
Because there was a long-standing tradition in the elite training camp: every August, all members would participate in a life-and-death adventure test.
And this year's location… was the Australian continent.
Kirishima.
In the original timeline, when Luo Feng first went to Kirishima, Babata was still dormant and failed to discover his talent. Only after the adventure, the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins, and nearly two more years of twists and turns did Luo Feng finally uncover the Meteorite Star legacy.
Jiang Yan had no intention of waiting that long.
This time, during the life-and-death adventure, he planned to take Luo Feng straight to Kirishima—and dig.
As long as there was enough disturbance, Babata would inevitably awaken.
"I will," Luo Feng said seriously, his eyes burning with determination.
Jiang Yan nodded and turned to leave.
"Brother Jiang Yan, wait!"
Li Wei rushed out from his attic in Jiangnan Pavilion and called after him.
Jiang Yan stopped and turned around. "What's wrong?"
Catching his breath, Li Wei said quickly, "My mother just arrived in Hongning Base City. She wants to invite you to dinner. Do you have time?"
There was a trace of nervous anticipation in his eyes.
Jiang Yan was now someone countless forces wanted to meet. Invitations lined up all the way from the elite training camp to Hongning Base City—and most had been politely rejected.
"Oh?" Jiang Yan's interest was piqued. "Venina is in Hongning Base City?"
He smiled. "I have some acquaintance with your mother. Since she's invited me, of course I'll go. After all, she once gave me equipment—I haven't properly thanked her in person yet."
Li Wei's face lit up instantly.
"Then let's go now! My mother has already booked the hotel and made all the arrangements!"
A meeting long planned… was finally about to happen.
