The Heavens: One World, One Superpower

The half-step Great Power watched Su Chen roast food in the divine furnace, his beard practically bristling with rage. "That scoundrel really does have a divine furnace."

The other powerful figures from the Dragon Transformation Realm also sighed with regret, saying, "Supreme Elder, are we just going to watch him like this and let him insult the Divine Furnace?"

The half-step Great Power glared at the speaker and said, "What else do you want to do? Let him crush my grandson to death?"

The man bowed his head repeatedly and said, "I wouldn't dare."

As the pressure from the half-step Great Power was withdrawn, the man gasped for breath, his clothes soaked with cold sweat. At that moment, he felt as if he had seen the Ten Kings of Hell.

The group waited in place, while a powerful expert at the Dragon Transformation Realm, who was proficient in array formations, set up array patterns around them. According to this half-step Great Power, once the array patterns sealed the space, he would use his own methods to bring Jiang Lianshan back.

At that point, we'll be trapped like turtles in a jar, and they can trample on us at will.

Su Chen looked at the array patterns in the air, which were almost completed, and couldn't help but sigh, "If only I understood the Dao of Arrays, I could draw an array experience point and directly transform into an Array Emperor."

Jiang Lianshan couldn't understand Su Chen's words, but he knew what the Array Emperor meant. He said, "The art of array formations is profound and extensive. The Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, who was once known as the supreme master of array formations, created the Secret of Combining Characters, which is said to have expounded the highest principles of array formations. It is truly something to aspire to."

Su Chen asked, "Do you know where the secret of character formation is hidden now?"

Jiang Lianshan laughed and said, "If I had known about this divine technique, I would have notified the family to retrieve it long ago."

Su Chen chuckled and said, "I know."

Jiang Lianshan bit his lip, quickly spitting out the Golden-Winged Roc meat from his mouth. He found that he had bitten his lip until it bled, and couldn't help but gasp, saying, "If you hadn't sealed my divine power, I wouldn't have had to bite my lip."

Su Chen said, "You eat too fast and have terrible table manners, how can you blame others?"

Jiang Lianshan knew this was his problem and asked, "Do you really know where the secret to character formation lies?"

Su Chen said, "What? Are you trying to trick me into telling me something?"

Jiang Lianshan said excitedly, "Here's what I'll do: as long as you hand over the location of the Character Formation Secret to the Jiang family, I can guarantee you won't be hunted down. Moreover, I'll introduce you to my cousin, the second young lady of the Jiang family. She's the jewel of our family, exceptionally talented. If she marries into our family, you can still use the divine furnace. How about it?"

Su Chen was somewhat surprised and said, "Are you just making empty promises to me in order to save your life?"

Jiang Lianshan said solemnly, "I had no such intention. It's just that my Jiang family has always upheld the mission of protecting the human race. Tens of thousands of years have passed since the Dark Ages. Who knows when the supreme beings of those forbidden zones will launch another Dark Rebellion? And now there is no Great Emperor to guard it."

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh, and even the golden-winged roc meat in his hand no longer tasted sweet.

He continued, "Nowadays, all the major families and holy lands are seeking greater power, hoping to stop the scourge of darkness and turmoil. But the results are minimal. If we can obtain the Secret of Combining Characters, we can acquire the Four Swords of Zhuxian from Lingbao Tianzun, set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation, and at the same time evolve the Four Spirits Formation, the Zhou Tian Star Formation, the Yin Yang Formation, and other formations whose power can shake even the Supreme One."

His tone became excited, "This is an extremely powerful help. What's wrong with my Jiang family arranging a marriage between our eldest daughter and you in order to protect the human race? Besides, your strength is extraordinary, definitely surpassing that of a Dao-Slaying King, and you are fully worthy of my Jiang family's eldest daughter."

Su Chen slapped his thigh and said, "Let me ask you a question, isn't the eldest daughter of the Jiang family beautiful?"

Jiang Lianshan coughed and said, "Is there any need to say it? Of course, she is stunningly beautiful, flawless, and incomparably gorgeous."

Su Chen exclaimed excitedly, "Great! If I marry the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, won't I have a powerful backer?"

Jiang Lianshan also said excitedly, "That's right, not only is the Jiang family your backer, but they will also provide you with cultivation resources. It's a win-win situation."

Su Chen's expression returned to calm as he said, "But I still cannot marry into your Jiang family."

Jiang Lianshan asked in surprise, "Why?" The atmosphere had clearly reached that point, but you suddenly stopped?

Su Chen said, "Is marrying into a family something a man should do?"

Jiang Lianshan said, "It's fine if you don't marry into the family, but you can no longer use the divine furnace."

Su Chen said, "Besides, as a man, how can you give up the whole forest for one tree? Don't you agree?"

Jiang Lianshan nodded and said, "You're right." But he quickly realized something and said, "No, my Jiang family's eldest daughter has an extraordinary status, outstanding talent, and unparalleled beauty. She comes with a wealth of resources. You've got the Jiang family's eldest daughter, and all other women are just ordinary mortals. How can they be compared?"

Su Chen laughed and said, "I've heard that there are three beauties in the Eastern Wilderness: first, Yan Ruyu, the descendant of the Demon Emperor; second, An Miaoyi, the Holy Maiden of the Miaoyu Nunnery; and third, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi. These three women are truly goddesses descended to earth, and are stunningly beautiful."

Jiang Lianshan frowned and said, "Descendants of the Demon Emperor and the Miaoyu Nunnery? I've never heard of them."

Su Chen glanced around.

A faint white light flickered in the sky, and runes hung in the void, eventually forming a circle.

At this moment, the array patterns in the void resonated together, forming a deadly array.

Su Chen said, "Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. As for the Demon Emperor's descendant and the Myriad Desires Nunnery, you can investigate them yourself later. The great formation is complete; it's probably going to burn us both to death."
