High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System Chapter 1019 - 471: Venerables Shocked! Jiang Ye, the Source Healer? (Double-Length)

The second ring is the territory of affiliated tribes.

All tribes survive by relying on the Nine Great Divine Races, with mansions densely packed, frequent exchanges, diverse and thriving atmospheres, hiding many intersecting forces—a buffer zone between the core and the outskirts.

Beyond the third ring is the activity range for foreign tribes. It is a place where all kinds gather, a hub for information flow, and an excellent hiding place for those lurking.

Hui He’s figure is hidden in a dilapidated loft in the third ring.

He wears a gray robe, blending into the surroundings, his aura restrained to the utmost, akin to a stone that has been silent for ages.

His gaze pierces through the gaps in the loft, firmly locked in the direction of the core heartland, a hint of sinister patience flashing in his eyes.

"Bright Heart Hall."

"The core of the Crimson Divine Race’s core." Hui He murmured softly, his fingertips rubbing a pitch-black venomous thorn in his palm.

This thorn is surrounded by a faint black mist, carrying a poison potent enough to instantly shatter the body of a demigod.

Having lurked on Huanglong Main Star for three hundred years, he knows its rules inside out.

The core heartland is surrounded by layers of divine thought from the Nine Great Divine Races. Not to mention assassination, even approaching within a kilometer would result in immediate detection and no place for burial.

Though the second ring is sheltered by affiliated tribes, there are many surveillance blind spots, the only place where action can be taken.

Since Hui He contacted Venerable Bei Cang, he has been lurking here, quietly waiting for the moment to strike.

But as time passes.

One day.

Ten days.

One hundred days.

Ye Jiang has already stayed in Bright Heart Hall for a full one hundred days.

The hall gate of Bright Heart Hall remained closed with no sign of activity, as if those inside had become isolated from the world, focused solely on cultivation, ignoring worldly affairs.

"Could it be he is going to stay inside forever?"

Hui He felt restless in his heart, yet forcibly restrained himself.

He knows that impatience is the greatest taboo for demigod cultivation; Ye Jiang, achieving Tier Three Demigod at age thirty, must have a temperament far beyond ordinary people and be able to remain calm.

But he doesn’t believe Ye Jiang will remain in Bright Heart Hall forever.

"The Nine Great Divine Races of Huanglong never work behind closed doors." Hui He’s eyes flash with certainty.

Having lurked here for many years, he deeply understands the rules of the Nine Great Divine Races.

Every so often, each tribe organizes gatherings for the young generation, known as discussing the Dao and sparring, essentially resource exchange and networking events.

At the meetings, one can gain a substantial amount of merit through exchanges and discuss the mysteries of the law with talents of extraordinary talent.

This is crucial to the path of the demigod, and nearly no demigod will miss it.

"This Ye Jiang."

"Being of extraordinary talent, and apprenticed under Venerable Bai." Hui He thought to himself, "Ambitious, he cannot possibly miss such an opportunity."

Hui He patiently waited, pressing his aura even lower, like a shadow merging with darkness, silently lurking.

He must endure.

After all, he doesn’t have much time left to live, and this task is his last chance.

...

Within Bright Heart Hall.

Jiang Ye sat cross-legged, surrounded by a faint golden airflow.

"Huala-la~" Heaven and Earth Power surged into his body like a tide, nourishing the Five Great Mysteries and Two Great Laws.

During these hundred days, he has not stood still.

With the dense Heaven and Earth Power within Bright Heart Hall, aided by the Tier Three Enlightenment Divine Jade, his cultivation steadily advanced towards the late period of the Tier Three Demigod level, and his understanding of the mysteries of the law grew deeper.

"Buzz~"

The identity bracelet on his wrist suddenly vibrated, a crisp and pleasant voice entered his mind, carrying a hint of excitement.

"Ye Jiang, my friend?"

It was the voice of Chi Jiuxin.

"Friend Jiuxin." Jiang Ye opened his eyes, responding with divine thought, his tone calm.

"I have good news for you!" Chi Jiuxin’s voice was filled with unconcealable excitement: "The Red Mansion Gathering is starting in three days, would you like to come?"

"Red Mansion Gathering?" Jiang Ye’s eyebrows slightly moved, revealing a hint of doubt.

"Yes!" Chi Jiuxin quickly explained: "It is the routine gathering of the young generation of the Nine Great Divine Races, held at our Crimson Divine Race’s Red Mansion."

"At the event, you can discuss the Dao and spar, exchange treasures, and most importantly, the winner will receive an enormous amount of merit points!"

Mentioning merit points made Jiang Ye’s eyes instantly brighten.

Although he has the protection of a Venerable, the resources needed for cultivation are immense, whether advancing to Tier Four Demigod or preparing for the Hundred-Star Divine War, he needs a large amount of merit points for exchanging treasures.

"Is there really such a great opportunity?" Jiang Ye’s tone carried a hint of interest.

"Of course!"

Chi Jiuxin laughed, "Last time I exchanged idle law crystals for a lot of merit points and even shared insights on the Ashen Law with a few talents, reaping tremendous gains."

"Moreover, quite a few big figures are coming to this small gathering this time, and some geniuses with extraordinary talent will also be present. It will be beneficial for you to advance to an extraordinary talent."

Jiang Ye quickly calculated in his mind.

With the Hundred-Star Divine War approaching, accumulating more merit points, exchanging insights, and getting familiar with the strength of other talents are indeed good things.

"Alright, I’ll go," Jiang Ye agreed immediately, without any hesitation.

"Great!" Chi Jiuxin was overjoyed, "Three days later at morning, I’ll meet you at the outer gate of the Crimson Divine Race and lead you inside."

"Alright." Jiang Ye nodded and cut off the sound transmission.

He closed his eyes again, but a trace of expectation lingered at the corners of his mouth.

Huanglong merit points, he is determined to obtain them.

And those geniuses with extraordinary talent will serve as his rehearsal opponents on his path during the Hundred-Star Divine War.

...

Huanglong Main Star, Bai Race’s sacred ground.

Venerable Bai sat crossed-legged on the cloud bed, surrounded by a hazy glow that was incomparably sacred.

Yet, piercing through the glow, one could see the Venerable, standing at the pinnacle of Huanglong Civilization, with furrowed brows at this moment.

The scenes of the Divine Map’s disturbance on that day kept replaying in the Venerable’s mind.

"Who was it?"

Since the day the Divine Map trembled and Huanglong’s origin was nourished, Venerable Bai had been investigating the person behind it.

No matter how much deduction was done, not a single clue could be found.

The rules inside the Divine Map Tower were special, blocking any tracing, even preventing a Venerable like Bai from peering into the situation at the time.

"Could it be Bai Cantian?"

Venerable Bai murmured, then shook his head.

Although Bai Cantian’s skill of [Heavenly Repair] was powerful, it focused more on repairing one’s own foundation rather than the origin of heaven and earth, making such efforts impossible.

"Prince Huang? Or other talents?"

One name after another flashed in the Venerable’s mind, but each was dismissed in turn.

While those individuals were exceptionally talented, none had the capability to repair origins.

Just when the Venerable was baffled, filled with doubts.

"Buzz—"

An immense, boundless will suddenly enveloped the entire Huanglong Main Star.

This will was ancient and majestic, seemingly existing since the birth of the universe, carrying endless authority and vitality, it was none other than the Will of Huanglong!

"Awake?"

Venerable Bai abruptly opened his eyes, a mix of surprise and gravity flashing through them.

After the Civilization Struggle ended, the Will of Huanglong fell asleep, digesting the universe’s gifts.

Now awakened, it meant Huanglong Civilization’s foundation had deepened further, bringing it one step closer to the birth of another god.

"Huanglong." Venerable Bai bowed in greeting, conveying divine thoughts with respect.

"Congratulations on your awakening, the origin now more superior than before."

Mentioning the origin was actually an attempt to probe the truth about the Divine Map’s tremor.

The Will of Huanglong transmitted a gentle wave, carrying a trace of joy and gratification.

[You were concerned, this awakening, thanks to a slight replenishment of the origin.]

"Indeed, someone supplemented the origin!" Venerable Bai’s heart stirred, quickly asking, "May I know which fellow Daoist helped, so that I may personally express my thanks and offer abundant rewards?"

The Will of Huanglong was silent for a moment, then a crystal clear wave entered Venerable Bai’s mind without any ambiguity.

[Ye Jiang.]

"What?"

Venerable Bai’s body shook violently, stunned on the spot, until after a moment, a look of incredulity appeared on the face.

Ye Jiang?

The thirty-year-old Tier Three Demigod?

How could he have the ability to repair Huanglong’s origin?

This was something even a Venerable couldn’t accomplish, requiring abilities at the universe origin level!

"Huanglong, are you sure?" Venerable Bai couldn’t help but ask for confirmation once more, his heart surging with waves.

Ye Jiang’s secrets seemed even more than imagined.

At thirty, achieving Tier Three Demigod status, sweeping through over a thousand with extraordinary talent... and now able to repair planetary origin?

[No mistake]

The Will of Huanglong’s wave was firm beyond doubt.

[He possesses a special ability to mend origin cracks, although he merely supplemented a trace, it is of great significance, laying the groundwork for my subsequent awakening.]
