Chapter 301: The Dragon Ascends from the Dao Lineage | Red Heart Survey [Translation]
Red Heart Survey [Translation] - Updated on April 24, 2025
The formless void mirrored reality, and the Gate of Heaven and Earth solidified into substance.
Amidst the five thousand-strong military formation, Jiang Wang, with the might of his divine soul, ripped the Gate of Heaven and Earth from the ether and slammed it down, shattering Shi Jing’s skull.
Yet, the man was not dead. He mustered his battle qi, roused his Dao Yuan, and with sheer force, held aloft that impossibly heavy gate.
Jiang Wang’s hand-sword did not cease. With swift strikes, he countered the onslaught of the Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array.
And his divine soul power once again lifted the Gate of Heaven and Earth, and once again, he brought it crashing down!
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
After three such repetitions, Shi Jing’s Dao Yuan and will finally scattered completely. His entire being was crushed from above, pounded into a pulpy mess!
Following this final impact, a prolonged silence fell.
Even the habitually dejected Forward showed shock in his eyes.
He, too, had traveled far and wide, seen much from a young age, but never had he witnessed someone actually wield the Gate of Heaven and Earth as a weapon!
Searching the annals of history, this was an unprecedented, unrecorded innovation.
Executor Qian rubbed his eyes even more vigorously, suspecting himself to be lost in an illusion. Shouldn’t one find an opportunity to push the gate and break through realms? How could one directly lift the Gate of Heaven and Earth?
Zhu Biqiong’s heart surged with emotion, and Zhang Hai was left speechless with shock.
Du Gu Xiao clenched his fists in excitement, biting down on his lip.
The entire Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array momentarily froze because of this.
And Jiang Wang simply sheathed his sword. His sleeves were ripped open by the explosive force, revealing bulging, streamlined muscles. He directly seized the Gate of Heaven and Earth with both hands and strode forward in large steps!
He charged like a savage beast, swinging the gate wildly left and right.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
At first, there was still scattered resistance. Under the organization of several city guard army leaders, the military formation revived.
But as Jiang Wang charged madly forward…
The fierce soldiers, their killing qi gathered, shattered in large batches. The two Yin Yang giant fish actually dispersed on the spot.
And in this process…
Jiang Wang’s momentum climbed higher and higher, becoming more and more solidified.
There was a clear cracking sound, echoing in everyone’s ears.
Then came a second sound, a third sound.
*Crack, crack, crack!*
The stone gate held in his hands, its horizontal patterns, successively broke open.
The Heaven Pattern opened.
The Earth Pattern opened.
The Human Pattern opened.
Seemingly endless Yuan Qi surged into it.
The Gate of Heaven and Earth, opened!
Within the Tongtian Palace, the nine great star river paths spun madly. Countless perfect Dao Yuan gushed forth like springs. And that single coiling star spirit snake, representing the true spirit of the Dao pulse, leaped up. Had its size not enlarged by more than ten times? It transformed into a coiling star strange python, roaming within the dome of the Tongtian Palace.
Suddenly, at this moment, a primal dragon’s roar resounded.
Jiang Wang felt as if his entire spine, like a great dragon, was being drawn out of his body. His essence, qi, and spirit formed the spine, his flesh body like shedding skin, as if it would peel off in the next moment—this, of course, was only an illusion.
What was leaving was not the spine, but the Tongtian Palace, which before breaking through, was almost overlapping with his spine!
The Dao pulse thus soared like a dragon. It turned once within his body and leaped into the ocean of his body trunk.
Jiang Wang could now glimpse the ocean of his body trunk—it was a vast, boundless sea, its waves surging turbulently, as if forever churning without end.
Above the sea surface, a vast, hazy fog covered the sky. That was the innate primordial fog. Its soul-damaging, spirit-grinding properties were not to be understated. How many cultivators in the Soaring Dragon Realm had their Dao pulse true dragons lost within it, dissolved by this fog, their bodies dead and their Dao vanished?
Within the entire body trunk ocean, besides the sea, was fog. Nothing else could be seen.
Heaven and Earth were a boundless expanse of haze.
Jiang Wang’s newly soaring Dao pulse true dragon felt so lonely in this state.
But just at this moment…
Within that vast, endless ocean, an isolated reef was born from the seabed, gradually protruding above the sea surface.
And in the vicinity of this reef, the surging sea surface actually slowly calmed.
The reef enlarged with extreme speed, expanding outwards.
This speed could be called frantic, because too many powers from heaven and earth were feeding back, almost surging in.
When it stopped enlarging, an island occupying a full hundred li square appeared in the original location.
Before Jiang Wang could even control it, the Dao pulse, transformed into a soaring dragon, had already leaped onto the island, only then shaking off the entanglement of the primordial fog.
This was none other than Jiang Wang’s Heaven and Earth Isolated Island!
Later, exploring the body trunk sea, this island would be the dwelling place of the soaring dragon Dao pulse. It was also the cultivator’s base, their great camp, against primordial influences.
This so-called hundred li distance, of course, had no relation to the real world. It was only a measurement existing within the body trunk ocean. But it did not affect its terrifying nature.
In the notes Jiang Wang had read, Heaven and Earth Isolated Islands typically did not exceed ten li square.
And at the instant the Heaven and Earth Isolated Island was formally completed, in the sky, the primordial fog instantly retreated by a hundred li.
Jiang Wang could perceive it very clearly.
Just within that vast, endless primordial fog, a strong summons was issuing forth. That was the location of his first inner mansion, and that kind of summons originated from the divine ability seed within the inner mansion.
As early as in the Tianfu Secret Realm, he had already pre-ordained a divine ability.
That is to say, if Jiang Wang was willing, he could now directly knock on the inner mansion, select a divine ability, and with the power of a divine ability inner mansion, appear horizontally!
The gap between a divine ability inner mansion and an ordinary inner mansion was like a realm difference. What Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array, what Sunlight County Governor—he could extinguish them with a flick of a finger!
But how could a divine ability be the end?
This temptation, though strong, was to Jiang Wang, so utterly insignificant.
The changes within his body, while complex to describe, in reality, were completed in only a few breaths’ time in the real world.
The Gate of Heaven and Earth, thus pushed open, disappeared from the real world. And Jiang Wang, who had formally achieved Dao pulse soaring dragon and stood upon his Heaven and Earth Isolated Island, was already a genuine cultivator of the Soaring Dragon Realm!
*Chirp, chirp, chirp!*
Precisely at this moment, within the Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array, a sharp bird cry suddenly resounded.
*Chirp, chirp, chirp!*
Fiery sparrows, their entire bodies ablaze, flew up from all around Jiang Wang, densely packed, chirping loudly, crashing towards the four directions!
This was the first-grade lower-quality Dao technique, Exploding Cry Flame Sparrow, which Jiang Wang had won from the Qi Country Prince Jiang Wuyong.
Jiang Wang had long been familiar with it, had long pondered it, yet it was only when he formally stepped into the Soaring Dragon Realm that he could finally display it.
As soon as it appeared, it instantly shocked the four corners!
Violent flame sparrows pecked and killed soldiers, bringing up rolling waves of flame.
The Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array, composed of a full five thousand city guard army soldiers, first had its main general smashed to death. Then it encountered the barbaric, ruthless sweep of the Gate of Heaven and Earth. Now, it was internally exploded by a premium secret transmission’s first-grade Dao technique.
The soldier array was chaotic for a time.
Forward, Zhu Biqiong, and Zhang Hai then, at this very moment, leading the three hundred warriors of the Qingyang Town Hall, like three sharp knives, neatly and directly inserted themselves into the heart of the Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array. This was the timing Jiang Wang had instructed beforehand.
Without the blessing of a military formation, with the power of the Qingyang Town Hall warriors, facing a Yin Yang Wandering Kill Array of five thousand soldiers, they would inevitably collapse upon contact.
But at this moment, it was the perfect timing.
The soldier array almost instantly scattered!
With the five thousand-strong military formation thus scattered, the Jiacheng city guard army ran about like headless chickens. Those who could escape, escaped; those who could charge, charged, utterly without order.
And under the targeted kills by the extraordinary cultivators of Qingyang Town, led by Jiang Wang, those leaders who could organize a counterattack were instantly dealt with.
They could only passively accept slaughter.
A defeated army is no better than chickens and dogs!
“Drop your weapons, kneel on the ground and surrender! You may be spared death!”
Jiang Wang held his long sword, walked on air, and shouted loudly!
For a time, the sound of weapons falling to the ground was endless, and kneeling figures were densely packed.
Even the dejected Forward, and the innocent Zhu Biqiong, couldn’t help but show joy on their faces.
Victory!
Just at this moment, a voice from a distant place resounded.
“This play wasn’t bad to watch!”
This voice sounded majestic, loud. When it first rose, it was still extremely far away. When it resounded again, it was already on the field.
“But even if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, you cannot escape death!”
