Jun Moxie's transformation was like a meteor that suddenly appeared in the night sky, dazzling and unexpected, as if the rhythm of the whole world was disrupted by this sudden change.
"How can this be!"
Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi had their eyes wide open and their mouths slightly open, as if their thoughts were instantly frozen. Their bodies were as stiff as sculptures, and their dull gazes were fixed straight ahead. The shock in their hearts was beyond words.
"Uncle San, Grandpa, don't worry, this is my new Phoenix form." Jun Moye's voice sounded at the right time, with a hint of ease and confidence. Then, he spewed out a blue flame from his mouth. The flame seemed to have life, and in an instant it wrapped around Jun Wuyi's legs. The scene was both mysterious and terrifying.
When Jun Zhantian witnessed this scene, his face suddenly changed. He was about to mobilize the mysterious energy in his body to extinguish the seemingly dangerous fire, but was hurriedly stopped by Jun Wuyi.
"Father, don't do it! My legs... I can feel my legs! I can feel the pain!"
Jun Wuyi's face gradually blossomed with incredible ecstasy, his excitement was beyond words, his voice trembled slightly with excitement: "The energy contained in this flame seems to be repairing my legs that have been paralyzed for ten years!"
"What did you say? Can you feel pain?" Jun Zhantian's reaction was as if he had heard a fairy tale. His face was full of astonishment, as if he was questioning his own ears.
Jun Wuyi nodded heavily, with an unprecedented light flashing in his eyes: "Yes, this flame is really a miracle!"
The blue flames continued to hiss, and the joy on Jun Wuyi's face became more and more intense. The look in his eyes when he looked at Jun Moyue changed from initial disappointment and confusion to shock, and finally to deep relief and pride.
Time seemed to stand still until a loud roar broke the silence.
A majestic aura burst out from Jun Wuyi's body. He patted the wheelchair with both hands, and the wheelchair that had accompanied him for many years shattered. Then, he tapped the air with his feet, and like an eagle that had broken free from its restraints, he leaped into the air in the lobby, drawing an incredible arc.
"Haha, I never thought that my Jun Wuyi would be able to get out of the wheelchair and walk freely one day!"
He walked briskly back to Jun Zhantian, holding his father's arm tightly, his body trembling slightly with excitement: "Father, I'm fine, I'm really fine!"
Jun Zhantian's eyes were red. This general, who had once remained calm in the face of a million-strong army, could not hide his excitement at this moment. The iron-blooded and cruelty of the battlefield disappeared at this moment, leaving only the endless joy of a father seeing his disabled son regain a new life.
"Moye, how did you do it? And what's with this phoenix form?" After a brief surprise, Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi came back to their senses, their eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.
In their previous understanding, Jun Moyue was nothing more than an unlearned, idle dandy who was unsuccessful in studying and had no hope of practicing martial arts, but was only good at eating, drinking and having fun.
However, the scene just now completely overturned their perception. Jun Mo Xie seemed not as simple as they thought. At this moment, they found that they could not see through this young figure.
"Grandpa, Third Uncle, now that things have come to this, there is no need for me to hide it anymore."
Jun Moxie took a deep breath, looked into the distance, and said slowly with a bit of vicissitudes and helplessness: "When I was three years old, I met a hermit master, who accepted me as his disciple. But because of the special secret method of cultivation, I had to hide my strength in front of outsiders and pretend to be a waste. Until recently, I have made great progress in cultivation, and my master allowed me to show my true self."
At this point, Jun Mo Xie sighed softly, his tone revealing an unspeakable loneliness: "Grandpa, Third Uncle, do you know how lonely and lonely I have endured all these years?"
Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi listened to these words with regret in their eyes, as if they were blaming themselves for not noticing earlier that their grandson and nephew had been silently enduring the suffering.
Jiang Han, who was standing aside, twitched his lips, and his complicated eyes stayed on Jun Moyue for a moment, with mixed feelings in his heart.
"Moxie, grandpa has wronged you all these years!" Jun Zhantian stepped forward and hugged Jun Moxie, who had returned to his normal appearance.
"Mo Xie, what level of strength have you reached?" Jun Wuyi asked.
"The inheritance passed down by my master cannot be measured by ordinary cultivation systems. Therefore, I myself don't know what realm my current strength corresponds to." Jun Moyue shook his head.
"Then let your uncle help you test it!" As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Wuyi threw a punch, and powerful mysterious energy surged out from his fist.
Jun Moxie's eyes flashed, and he activated the power of the Fantasy Beast Fruit without hesitation, transforming into a phoenix and attacking with one claw.
Bang!
A dull crash sounded.
Although Jun Moxie, who transformed into a phoenix, was repelled, he was unharmed.
"Jin Xuan!" Jun Wuyi retracted his fist, widened his eyes, and looked at Jun Moyue in shock.
"Wu Yi, you are kidding! Mo Xie is already in the Jinxuan realm!"
Jun Wuyi nodded solemnly, while Jun Zhantian laughed like crazy: "God has eyes! Seventeen-year-old Jin Xuan is the number one in the Tianxiang Empire. Our Jun family has a successor!"
After Jun Moxie's fistfight with Jun Wuyi, he deeply realized the amazing power of the Fantasy Beast Fruit. Just by tasting the fruit for the first time, before it was fully developed, he already possessed the strength of Jin Xuan!
"Moye, where is your great master now? He has trained you so well over the years, we must thank him very much. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have the strength and means you have today, and Wuyi's leg wouldn't have recovered!" Jun Zhantian suddenly realized and said hurriedly.
"Grandpa, the master I mentioned is actually right in front of us." Jun Moyue pointed at Jiang Han who was standing aside.
Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi were both stunned when they heard this. Their eyes fell on Jiang Han and their mouths opened into an "O" shape.
"You... you are Moye's master!" Jun Zhantian's eyes were full of shock and his throat rolled. He looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief. The young man who looked to be only in his early twenties, could not connect him with the mysterious master that Jun Moye mentioned.
In his imagination, the person who could teach Jun Moyue such a heaven-defying method must be an old monster who is otherworldly and has lived in seclusion for hundreds of years.
Facing the gazes of the two, Jiang Han just nodded slightly without giving any further explanation.
"Uncle San, who injured your leg?" Jun Moxie asked Jun Wuyi and then turned to Jun Zhantian, "Also, what was the cause of my parents' death?"
Jun Moxie did not find the answers to these two mysteries in his predecessor's memories.
Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi exchanged glances, and after a silent communication, they finally shook their heads: "Moye, with your current strength, it is better for you not to know. Our enemy is too powerful, too powerful!" "Too strong? How strong is that!" Jun Moye's voice was mixed with disbelief and urgency, and his eyes flashed with desire for unknown power, as if to penetrate all the fog and reach that unreachable realm.
"In front of them, my strength is nothing." Jun Zhantian's tone was filled with helplessness, and his eyes were far-reaching, as if he was recalling those extraordinary beings. "If you want to know, then step into the Earth Profound Realm first." He still did not give a direct answer, but threw the question to Jun Moyue, as if implying that only by experiencing it personally could one understand the shock.
After saying that, Jun Zhantian turned his head and looked at Jiang Han with a gentle and respectful attitude: "Excuse me, but may I ask how strong you are?" His inquiry was full of deep curiosity about Jiang Han, and also revealed his respect for the unknown strong man.
Not only Jun Zhantian, but also Jun Wuyi beside him, had a look of inquiry in his eyes. Jun Moxie did not hide his curiosity at all, his eyes were fixed on Jiang Han, and he was full of doubts and expectations about this cheap master who suddenly appeared.
In Xuanxuan Continent, the path of cultivating Xuanqi is long and arduous. From the first grade to the ninth grade, each level is a test of will and perseverance. Above the ninth grade, there are silver Xuan, gold Xuan, jade Xuan, and even earth Xuan and sky Xuan. Each step forward is a qualitative leap. Above the sky Xuan is the legendary Shen Xuan, and above the Shen Xuan is the awe-inspiring supreme realm. There are also rumors that beyond the supreme, there are even more mysterious levels of cultivation, which is a realm that ordinary people can hardly reach.
When one's cultivation reaches the Earthly Mysterious Realm, one can prolong one's lifespan through the power of the Mysterious Qi. Those who reach the Heavenly Mysterious Realm can live up to 150 to 200 years. If one can go one step further and enter the Divine Mysterious Realm, the Tree of Life will bloom again, but even so, it is difficult to escape the 350-year limit. As for the Supreme Realm, living for 500 years is not impossible. As for those above the Supreme Realm, that is true immortality, and the years will hardly leave any traces.
Jun Zhantian vaguely sensed from Jiang Han's calm demeanor and otherworldly temperament that he had reached the state of rejuvenation, which made him more convinced that Jiang Han's strength was far beyond his imagination. He was still in the Tianxuan realm and could not achieve rejuvenation, so he could only respond with awe to Jiang Han's true strength.
"As for my cultivation, it is hard to describe without comparison." Jiang Han smiled calmly. His smile contained both mystery and some honesty. After all, true strength needs no words.
Jun Zhantian and Jun Wuyi exchanged glances and decided not to ask any further questions. They guessed that this question might have touched upon an area that Jiang Han was unwilling to mention.
At this moment, outside the lobby, hurried footsteps broke the silence, and a soldier rushed in with a panicked look, his breathing disordered, and he seemed extremely nervous.
"Can't you see there are guests here? It's so disobedient!" Jun Zhantian scolded sternly. He was dissatisfied with the soldiers' recklessness and was even more worried that it would disturb the distinguished guests.
"Master, something terrible has happened. Something has happened in the Tianfa Forest. It feels like the sky is falling!" The soldier took a deep breath and reported anxiously.
"Say it all in one breath." Jun Zhantian frowned and signaled the soldiers not to delay.
"It's a tide of mysterious beasts! Thousands of mysterious beasts are pouring out from the Heavenly Punishment Forest. They are attacking the city like crazy. It's chaos outside!" The soldiers' faces were filled with anxiety and fear.
"What? A tide of mysterious beasts! The mysterious beasts of our Tianxiang Empire and the Tianfa Forest have always been at peace with each other, so how could they suddenly attack us? Come with me to have a look!" Before Jun Zhantian finished speaking, the mysterious energy around him surged, and he flashed to the door, so fast that it was astonishing. Jun Wuyi followed closely behind him, and the two quickly rushed to the scene of the incident.
"Master, we..."
"How can we miss such a lively event?" Jiang Han interrupted Jun Moyue and waved his sleeves lightly. He instantly disappeared into the lobby with Jun Moyue, leaving behind only a faint smile, as if he had everything under control.
At this time, panicked screams and chaotic crowds were intertwined in the imperial city of Tianxiang Empire. The once quiet streets were now a sea of refugees, with people running in panic with their luggage on their backs. The elite army rushed eastward along the streets, trying to organize a defense line.
Jun Zhantian moved through the crowd at an astonishing speed. Whenever he overtook an army, the leader of the team would always salute him respectfully, showing his prestige in the army.
In less than a moment, Jun Zhantian arrived at the junction of Tianxiang Imperial City and Tianfa Forest.
Amidst loud rumbling noises, from the depths of the Tianfa Forest, countless mysterious beasts rushed towards the human territory like a black torrent. Their roars shook the heavens and the earth, as if they were driven by some mysterious force.
On the edge of the imperial city, well-trained soldiers armed with spears and shields bravely resisted the surging tide of mysterious beasts. Their figures appeared particularly resolute in the battle.
"Look! General Jun is here!"
"With General Jun here, these mysterious beasts are nothing to be afraid of!"
Jun Zhantian's arrival was like a shot in the arm, inspiring all the soldiers. Their morale instantly rose, as if they saw the dawn of victory.
Jun Zhantian soared into the air, and a powerful aura burst out instantly. He was like a tiger coming down the mountain. Every time he threw a heavy punch, several mysterious beasts were turned into bloody fragments.
The mysterious beasts seemed to sense the threat from Jun Zhantian and began to consciously avoid him, changing their route and continuing to rush towards the imperial city.
"His Majesty is here too!" At some point, the monarch of the Tianxiang Empire appeared at the edge of the imperial city with a solemn expression.
"General Dugu has also joined the battle!" As more powerful men from the imperial city joined in, the soldiers' morale became higher and higher, and the battle situation gradually stabilized.
"Uncle Wuyi, your legs...how come they're healed?" A cute and playful girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, named Dugu Xiaoyi, ran to Jun Wuyi and pointed at his legs in surprise.
"Xiaoyi, Uncle San will tell you later." Jun Wuyi touched her head lovingly, then jumped up and joined the battle.
"Jun family's trash, what are you doing here? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by the mysterious beast?" Dugu Xiaoyi glanced at Jun Moyue with disdain, then turned to Jiang Han, "Who is this? Is this a new dandy?"
Jun Moxie was about to refute, but was stunned by Jiang Han’s next words.
"Don't be angry, this is one of your future wives." Jiang Han's words were joking.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Bah! How could I, Dugu Xiaoyi, marry such a playboy! Even if I were blind and lame, it would be impossible! And he is one of the eight, you are really a toad wanting to eat swan meat!" Dugu Xiaoyi glared at Jiang Han fiercely, her face full of anger, as if she had been greatly insulted.
"Master, is what you said true?" Jun Moxie took a deep breath and looked at Dugu Xiaoyi. "This girl is indeed good-looking. If it is true as you said, then I will have to discipline her well in the future, so that she won't be rude to you again."
"You useless jerk from the Jun family, if you keep talking nonsense I will cut off your tongue!" Dugu Xiaoyi drew out the rapier from his waist and waved it in front of Jun Moyue, the sword light was fierce.
Jun Moxie chuckled and ignored Dugu Xiaoyi, turning his attention to the battlefield.
As more powerful men from the Imperial City joined in, the attack of the mysterious beast tide gradually slowed down. More and more mysterious beasts fell under the swords of the powerful men, and the balance of the battle began to tilt. (End of this chapter)
