"Hmph! Staying so calm even when your own father is being held hostage, the higher your status, the colder your heart!"
Heber snorted coldly with malice in his voice.
"It's precisely because of a higher status that one must be calm, isn't it?"
Jiang Chen said calmly, "Stop dawdling, just say it, what do you want me to do?"
"I want all the Dao Seeds!"
Heber laughed coldly, "With the rebirth of the Heavenly Dao, there are bound to be flaws, and the seven fundamental Dao Seeds along with the two fundamental Extreme Dao Seeds can mend these flaws. I want those nine Dao Seeds!"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned. So that's how it is. The nine Dao Seeds are the key to mending the flaws in the Heavenly Dao. This means, using the nine Dao Seeds to activate the Formation not only protects Yuan Star, but is also a procedure to mend the Heavenly Dao's flaws, right? Lord True Dragon has calculated everything!
"I don't have nine Dao Seeds."
Jiang Chen said calmly.
"You have them! At the very least, you have the Dao Seed of Fire Path and the Dao Seed of Earth Path."
Heber glanced at Second Elder and Fourth Elder beside him, "The Great Dao Aura they emit is nearly complete. They must have consumed Dao Fruits; otherwise, it's impossible for such a complete Great Dao to appear in such a short time. The newly-born Heavenly Dao can't condense Dao Fruits on its own. They must be Dao Fruits accompanying Dao Seeds. You are their leader, if the Dao Seeds aren't with you, then who has them?"
"Consuming Dao Fruits leads to understanding a nearly complete Great Dao. Does this mean that everyone's self-comprehended Great Dao is incomplete?"
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, astonished.
"Nonsense, understanding a complete Great Dao isn't easy! Comprehending a complete Great Dao and condensing your Dao Seed is something only a Hegemon of the Integration Realm can accomplish!"
Heber taunted, "I didn't expect the number one in this world to be such an ignoramus! No wonder you had the audacity to lie that you had no Dao Seeds."
"I wasn't lying to you. I said I didn't have nine Dao Seeds, not that I didn't have a single one!"
Jiang Chen argued.
"You… I don't care how many Dao Seeds you have, give them all to me!"
Heber was losing patience.
"You don't care how many Dao Seeds I have, what if I give you fewer?"
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, motioning to Jiang Minglong with a hand on his waist.
Jiang Minglong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he blinked.
"You… dare not give me all the Dao Seeds? Do you believe I won't kill your father?"
Heber shouted angrily.
"I think you... can't do it!"
Jiang Chen deliberately drew out his words to attract Heber's attention. As the last three words were spoken, Jiang Chen's figure flashed, charging directly toward Heber.
Buzz!
A majestic Great Dao Aura suddenly appeared between Heber and Jiang Minglong, and the space between them started to fold.
"What? You dare make a move?!"
Heber exclaimed in surprise, reaching out to grab Jiang Minglong's neck.
However, due to the Spatial Fold, and since Jiang Minglong offered no resistance, the folding space dragged him back, pulling his neck from Heber's grasp.
"Spatial Path?!"
Missing his target, Heber's expression changed, turning his grab into a slap aimed at Jiang Minglong.
Swish!
Five meters is but a blink for Jiang Chen!
The moment Heber missed, Jiang Chen had already rushed to Jiang Minglong's side, breaking the Spatial Fold attack, grabbing Jiang Minglong's arm and throwing him forcefully into the distance, while raising his other hand to confront Heber's slap, an icy frost spreading in his palm.
Boom!
A blast of Qi Force echoed as Jiang Chen and Heber both flew backward, the violent Qi Force scattering around.
"Kill!"
A furious roar erupted as You Xuan charged at Heber, Long Dingtian and others burning with rage charged forward too.
"Dad, are you okay?"
Jiang Chen ignored Heber, appearing beside the thrown Jiang Minglong, his voice full of concern.
"You brat, I thought you weren't worried about your old man's life or death!"
Jiang Minglong chuckled lightly.
"How could I not be? Even though you're not the best father, you're still my dad!"
As Jiang Minglong replied, Jiang Chen quickly checked him all over, confirming he was fine, and joking as he spoke.
Only Jiang Chen's family and a few of his closest brothers like Yan Hu could make him talk this way!
"You brat."
Jiang Minglong rolled his eyes at Jiang Chen, glanced at the battle beside him, and whispered, "That guy seems strong, Elder You and the others are struggling, go help them! Be careful!"
"Alright! But spit out what's in your mouth, you can't eat that recklessly!"
Jiang Chen nodded, instructed him, extended his hand, and the Saint Dragon Sword appeared. In a flash, he charged at Heber.
Watching Jiang Chen's back, a sense of relief surfaced in Jiang Minglong's eyes as he spat out a crimson elixir, the Blood Demon Pill he'd kept safe!
Swish!
The departing Jiang Chen suddenly turned back, grabbed the Blood Demon Pill, then rushed towards Heber again.
"Little devil! Snatching things!"
Jiang Minglong was taken aback, cursed with a smile, and descended lightly, a warmth flowing through his heart.
He knew well that Jiang Chen snatched the Blood Demon Pill out of concern that he might recklessly endanger himself relying on it again!
At this moment, a monumental battle erupted in the sky, violent momentum clashing incessantly, oppressive Great Dao Auras ravaging the heavens, splendid lights blossoming continuously, the next thousand meters enveloped in an overwhelming violent aura. Semi Divine Infant Realm experts in the distance had to retreat another thousand meters!
Heber, alone, faced You Xuan and nine others without falling into a definite disadvantage, his body shielded by a mysterious aura-filled water curtain, blocking most of their Great Dao attacks. The only attack forcing him to dodge was You Xuan's Shadow Sword Path!
"Clear the area, seal the surroundings, don't let him escape, I'll deal with him myself!"
A furious voice rang out as Jiang Chen charged with his sword.
He assessed the situation, understanding that only You Xuan's attacks had any effect while others' attacks were futile, only causing embarrassment. So, he had everyone withdraw, leaving them a bit of dignity.
Long Dingtian and others retreated with anger, sealing the void within a thousand-meter radius, intensely focusing on Heber in the center, suppressed frustration welling up. Who would have thought that their first battle after breaking into the Divine Infant Realm would be like this, so many of them couldn't defeat a single opponent!
"Gentle Water Sword!"
A roaring voice erupted, as gentle Great Dao Aura surged from Jiang Chen, his Saint Dragon Sword slashing down fiercely.
