A prop card worth three hundred million points, Jiang Che had never used one before, not even for that Two-Calamity Evil God Demonic Ape.
The desperate ancestral dragon's lingering soul mobilized the essence of the Great Dao, forcibly elevating the power of his spectral form. Within this Dragon Pearl space, he was the one and only true god!
Even an immortal arriving here would be at a loss.
"Demon Ancestor!!! Why won't you let me go? I have already abandoned all dignity... why must you still press me so relentlessly!"
"Since it has come to this, then let none of us live! Your current reincarnated body is merely at the Half-Step Nirvana stage... I want to see just what tricks you have up your sleeve?"
"Taking the Demon Ancestor with me before death, that would be a profit, haha!"
As the saying goes, do not pursue a desperate foe, yet Jiang Che precisely drove him onto the path of death!
The ancestral dragon simply chose to explode!
However... the next second!
Another terrifying power appeared within the entire Dragon Pearl space. This power seemed to be the Great Dao itself, vast and magnificent!
Even the ancestral dragon's lingering soul was stunned, followed by uncontrollable trembling.
This... this familiar power!
The next moment, a colossal pitch-black hand materialized out of the void, enveloped in terrifying demonic energy.
The hand swatted directly at the dragon body of the ancestral dragon's lingering soul!
This ancestral dragon had no chance to resist whatsoever. It was directly sent flying by the terrifying force, thrown out for who knows how many tens of thousands of miles, seemingly crashing against the true dragon skeleton at the horizon.
Then, all signs of life completely dissipated.
Originally a weakened lingering soul, and having forcibly mobilized the power of the Great Dao essence, after being slapped away by Jiang Che, he also suffered the backlash from the Great Dao essence... and just died like that!
Behind Jiang Che, in Long Qianqiu's eyes, there was no emotion of fear or shock. Instead, her gaze carried a sense of madness.
...
After the dragon soul perished, the Supreme Great Dao essence, now ownerless, instantly began to fade from its spot, seeking to vanish into the formless Great Dao.
But it was halted by Jiang Che.
That's right, Jiang Che directly forcibly restrained the Great Dao essence.
His goal was precisely this Supreme Dao essence. If it really escaped today... he would have to spend tens of billions of points to exchange for it later. How could Jiang Che be willing to take such a loss?
Jiang Che slowly approached this translucent orb of light.
The orb emanated profoundly mysterious power. After the death of the one who had merged with the Dao, it should have dissipated between heaven and earth, returning to the Great Dao.
But its path was blocked by the man before it.
The Great Dao essence originally prepared to leave, but it was drawn to this human.
The Supreme Great Dao essence circled Jiang Che's body a few times.
Jiang Che had long since activated all four of his Immortal Physiques within his body, like a male peacock displaying its feathers to attract a mate.
But this Great Dao essence didn't seem interested in Jiang Che's four Immortal Physiques. It finally came to hover beside Jiang Che's finger.
In Jiang Che's hand, the aura of the item card he had just crushed had not completely dissipated yet. Tiny specks of starlight lingered in the air—a power somewhat akin to the aura of the Great Dao.
The Supreme Great Dao seemed to make a decision. It directly plunged into Jiang Che's chest and disappeared!
No, to be precise, it concealed itself within his dantian area.
"Oh? Have I gained the recognition of the Great Dao essence?" Jiang Che laughed. He already felt a strange connection with this Supreme Great Dao essence, though it wasn't very strong yet.
The status of a Great Dao essence is too high. Generally, only those at the immortal level attempt to refine and merge with a Dao. For someone like Jiang Che, merely at the Half-Step Nirvana stage, to already gain the recognition of a Great Dao... he was probably the only one in all the Nine Heavens.
"Heh, ancestral dragon? You can consider your death worthwhile!"
Jiang Che slowly stretched his limbs. This trip was an absolute bloody jackpot!
With the fall of the ancestral dragon, the entire Dragon Pearl space began to collapse.
Jiang Che carried Long Qianqiu and left the Dragon Pearl.
"Crack—"
After the two emerged, the Dragon Pearl shattered, then turned into countless particles of dust and vanished.
Long Qianqiu lowered her eyes slightly, looking at the pulverized Dragon Pearl, lost in thought.
Logically speaking, she had absolutely suffered a massive loss!
The Dragon Pearl did contain the "True Dragon Method," the entire dragon clan's treasure trove, and even the Supreme Great Dao essence!!!
Her deductions had been completely correct.
But now... the Great Dao essence recognized Jiang Che, the dragon clan's treasure also fell into Jiang Che's pocket. She only obtained the "True Dragon Method," and she might even have to make a copy of it for Jiang Che later.
"Jiang Che... oh no, I should address you as Demon Ancestor now!"
Long Qianqiu spoke, neither subservient nor arrogant.
"Demon Ancestor? No, no, no... I am not the Demon Ancestor!" Jiang Che smiled mysteriously.
Long Qianqiu was very surprised. "Why not? Didn't that dragon soul address you as Demon Ancestor? And your methods are so bizarrely powerful, you could even suppress the ancestral dragon!"
Long Qianqiu's words became more numerous.
She knew very well that Jiang Che possessed the power of "Clairaudience." She had no privacy before him, so she might as well ask any questions directly.
"Heh, guess?"
Jiang Che made an inscrutable expression.
He raised his hand and tossed out the treasure token. "Take whatever you want. Since you've become my woman, I naturally won't treat you poorly."
Long Qianqiu looked down at the token.
For some reason, this dragon clan treasure, which had been almost half her life's pursuit, now when Jiang Che threw it before her... her heart felt no ripple at all.
She had suddenly lost interest!
Instead, she began to grow interested in Jiang Che.
Obtaining the Dragon Pearl, at most she could have gotten a vast amount of dragon clan treasure. With her own abilities, she likely couldn't have controlled the Great Dao essence anyway. Although the Dragon Pearl's treasures were plentiful, they would eventually run out one day. Moreover, "a common man's wealth is his own ruin"—possessing the Dragon Pearl would have meant a life on the run.
But obtaining Jiang Che was different. She would possess countless possibilities!
Long Qianqiu raised her eyes, meeting Jiang Che's gaze seriously.
"Heh..." Jiang Che laughed. Long Qianqiu also laughed, a charming and captivating smile.
She, of course, knew Jiang Che had the Clairaudience ability, so those inner thoughts just now were deliberately revealed to him.
"A smart woman. But... aren't you afraid I'll grow tired of you?"
Long Qianqiu's expression was calm. Before, she would have wished for Jiang Che to tire of her soon for the sake of liberation, but now...
"If you dare betray me, even if I must fall into the Nine Springs and have my soul scattered, I will make you pay the price!"
After saying this, Long Qianqiu directly pushed Jiang Che down.
Jiang Che lay on his back, looking up at the madwoman before him. "Now, do you still think I'd be afraid of that so-called Vast Heaven Immortal Emperor?"
The dragon girl didn't speak. Leaving aside whether Jiang Che was the Demon Ancestor's reincarnation or not, just based on his methods... handling the Vast Heaven Immortal Emperor shouldn't be a problem!
So... she was ready to go all in!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
