[Note: This is the treasure of the One-Eyed Clan. It was forged from the eyeball of a fallen ninth-tier ancestor of the One-Eyed Clan. It seals the strongest innate divine power of that ancestor in life. When fully activated, it is enough to instantly kill any being below the ninth tier, and can even briefly contend with a true ninth-tier supreme powerhouse.]

This thing can actually threaten a ninth-tier supreme expert?

Jiang Chuan felt a slight flutter in his heart.

I'm also somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, the One-Eyed Clan didn't take him seriously and didn't send a true ninth-tier expert. Instead, they sent Meteor King, a peak eighth-tier king.

Perhaps in the eyes of the other side, an eighth-tier king wielding a top-tier divine artifact is enough to sweep away a race from a remote area.

And that is indeed the case.

If it weren't for the existence of Jiang Chuan, this freak, even if the entire human race were to gather all its strength, they would not be able to contend with him.

And now.

He only needed to send two servants to deal with the enemy.

With the attribute enhancements they received, Mo Yuan and Quan Huang Wang's strength was already close to the ninth rank, catching Meteor King completely off guard.

The power of this ultimate artifact was not even fully unleashed.

The treasure eventually ended up in his hands.

Not bad.

Jiang Chuan had no worries at all. This thing had obvious characteristics, and even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to use it outside.

He possesses the bug-level ability to extract everything.

They also possess a natural talent for creating things.

Restoring this treasure to its original state would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?

"Well done."

Jiang Chuan put the Eye of Thunder into his backpack and, unusually, praised Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "I'm glad my master is satisfied! This old servant would go through fire and water for my master, even unto death!"

"There's one more thing."

Jiang Chuan changed the subject, "Tell me again about the Meteor King in detail. How did it cross the Endless Wilderness to come to the Corpse Dog Clan?"

Mo Yuan quickly replied solemnly, "Master, this old servant has investigated the matter thoroughly. It was using a divine-level artifact."

"Teleportation Rune!"

"Oh?"

Mo Yuan took out a palm-sized jade talisman from his robes and respectfully presented it to Jiang Chuan: "This old servant doesn't know the specific name, but I know it's a one-time use spatial teleportation item that can instantly teleport the user to a preset coordinate point across extremely long distances. The Meteor King used it to teleport directly from the One-Eyed Clan's territory to the vicinity of the Corpse Dog Clan!"

"This is the last teleportation talisman on the Meteor King's body."

"It had two with it at the time."

"One was used."

"The old servant found this last one among its belongings."

"However, the coordinates of this teleportation talisman's landing point are definitely within the territory of the Cyclops Clan. Master, please be extremely careful if you intend to use it!"

Jiang Chuan took the talisman and examined it in his palm.

The talisman was made of a very special material, resembling neither jade nor gold, and its surface was covered with densely packed runes, emitting a spatial fluctuation that he was very familiar with.

[Boundary-Breaking Talisman]

[Grade: Divine Artifact]

【Effect: After activation, it will teleport the user to the specified coordinates - Molten City. This item will be destroyed immediately after use. Current usage count: 1】

After reading the description, Jiang Chuan immediately asked, "Is there any record of this 'Molten City' in the Corpse Dog Royal Court?"

Mo Yuan shook his head: "Reporting to Master, this old servant has not found any relevant records."

"All right."

Jiang Chuan pondered to himself.

This was an unexpected gain.

With this boundary-breaking talisman, he had a second way to the outside world.

The only problem.

He can't guarantee that he'll be able to teleport back in the future.

but.

This is at least much better than him aimlessly wandering into the vast wilderness.

Moreover, since the talisman landed in a city, someone would inevitably know about the human race, so he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to go home in the future...

"Of course, this is only the second option besides the teleportation array. If the teleportation array works fine, there's no need for me to risk going to the territory of the Cyclops."

Jiang Chuan thought to himself.

……

Soon, news of the victory reached Tianque City.

The whole country was shocked.

Du Beiheng personally signed the commendation order, his words so excited he was almost out of control. Tiange held a meeting overnight, and Marshal Zhou Tianyan made the final decision.

The entire officers and soldiers of the Mighty Dragon Special Operations Brigade were awarded the title of "Heroes of the North" and Jiang Chuan was awarded the highest honor medal of the Federation.

Before him.

Only three human heroes have ever received this honor.

They were all great sages of humanity who saved the entire race from peril during times of crisis.

In reality...

Jiang Chuan's contributions were even more impressive than those of the three legendary heroes.

He completely resolved the crisis in the North and eliminated the core strength of the Corpse Dog Clan. It was only a matter of time before the human race launched a counterattack, occupied the entire Corpse Dog Clan, and expanded its territory.

But no way.

His honors are beyond measure.

Even if he were to be appointed as the Marshal of the Heavenly Pavilion right now, there wouldn't be much opposition within the Federation!

The distance from the pinnacle of human power.

He only needs one sentence.

However, the question now is not whether Jiang Chuan wants to be the Heavenly Marshal, but whether he looks down on the position!

So what if you become a Heavenly General? You still can't find a way to break through to the ninth rank.

Once the Cyclops realizes what's happening and sends out a true ninth-tier expert to seek revenge, he'll still be doomed.

Moreover, for Jiang Chuan, the allure of power was not that strong.

What he wants is strength.

It's immortality!

The position of Heavenly General will only bring him the constraints that bind the future of the entire human race.

That's not what he wanted.

three days later.

Qin Tianheng's encrypted communication was connected to Jiang Chuan's contact.

"The Marshal has personally approved the formal appointment procedures you requested." Qin Tianheng's voice carried an indescribable emotion: "From today onwards, you are the thirteenth official Heavenly General of the Federation. The conferment ceremony will be held when you return to Tianque City, but all your privileges have already been activated."

Jiang Chuan had anticipated this; he only cared about one thing:

"Where's the teleportation array?"

"I knew you'd ask that." Qin Tianheng chuckled, but his voice suddenly deepened. "The Marshal has agreed, but you'll have to go back to Tianque City in person to discuss the details. That teleportation array is no small matter, and there are some things that can't be said over the phone."

"Okay, I'll set off immediately."
