The recent explosive move executed by Li San, the Badao, through so ans, appeared extrely powerful and terrifying to him.
Just sensing that formidable force from afar, he knew that the power of that finger had already surpassed the scope of a Third Grade Grandmaster.
It must have reached the scope of a Second Grade Great Grandmaster.
If one hadn’t entered the Second Grade Divine Realm Great Grandmaster level, it would be impossible to unleash such a real and astonishing finger intent.
The power of that finger is enough to breach the city gates of Dongling City.
While he was pondering, Jiang Ning had already disappeared from his sight.
...
A mont later.
Jiang Ning arranged for his family properly.
He advised Linglong to be more cautious, and then he left Dongling City.
In less than thirty minutes, he had arrived at the city gates of Guangning City.
Subsequently, with a movent of his body, he directly entered the city from above the city walls.
A mont later.
He descended from above to the front of the Marquis Mansion.
"Who is it!!"
The guards in front of the mansion saw a figure suddenly falling from above.
Hurriedly drawing their swords, they shouted loudly.
The next mont.
The two guards recognized Jiang Ning’s face.
"Greetings, Mr. Jiang!" The two hurriedly sheathed their swords and bowed to Jiang Ning.
Both of them had t Jiang Ning several tis before and had secretly morized his face.
Upon careful inspection, they imdiately recognized Jiang Ning.
"Please help inform the Marquis!" Jiang Ning said, cupping his fists.
"Mr. Jiang, please wait a mont, I will go right away!" One of them replied politely, then turned and left.
In less than a quarter of a cup of tea’s ti.
A steward walked briskly with the guard.
"Mr. Jiang, the Marquis invites you!"
Jiang Ning nodded, and thus entered the Marquis Mansion.
...
The back garden of the Marquis Mansion.
While it was drizzling in Dongling City, the place sunned gloriously.
"Marquis!" Seeing Shen Wenyan seated in the pavilion, Jiang Ning stepped forward and cupped his hands.
At this mont, Shen Wenyan chuckled and got up.
"The servants just reported your visit; I almost couldn’t believe it!"
Jiang Ning said, "I ca to visit today because I have so matters to discuss with the Marquis."
"What matters?" Shen Wenyan asked.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning recounted the recent events almost truthfully.
After hearing Jiang Ning’s recount, Shen Wenyan’s brow furrowed deeply.
"Based on your description, that finger might be the Mountain and River Finger."
"Mountain and River Finger?" Jiang Ning’s gaze intensified.
Shen Wenyan nodded heavily.
"The mastery skill of Yun Shanhe, the Mountain Master of Zhi Xuan Mountain, is the Mountain and River Finger, integrating the conception of mountains and rivers—capable of transforming into mountains and rivers, penetrating mountains, and severing rivers!"
"Is that Mountain Master Yun Shanhe very strong?" Jiang Ning asked with furrowed brows.
He had previously tried to investigate information about Zhi Xuan Mountain.
But he couldn’t find much.
Only knowing that the Mountain Master of Zhi Xuan Mountain is Yun Shanhe, who achieved Second Grade Great Grandmaster status in his early years.
Including simple introductions about the Zhi Xuan Mountain related powerhouses.
As for more in-depth understanding, he failed to uncover.
Powers and strong individuals of such levels are difficult to investigate clearly.
Shen Wenyan nodded: "Very strong!"
"How do they compare to the Marquis?" Jiang Ning asked.
Shen Wenyan shook his head: "Not the sa level!"
He then added, "I attained the Divine Realm Great Grandmaster status with Four Seasons Conception, and in the Second Grade Great Grandmaster category, I am just the weakest, similar to Li Sixiang of the Cross Immortal Gate."
"And Yun Shanhe, the Mountain Master of Zhi Xuan Mountain, achieved Second Grade Great Grandmaster status upon completing six blood exchanges with Three Rivers and Three Mountains!"
"Moreover, Yun Shanhe has surpassed one Jiazi since becoming a Second Grade Great Grandmaster, earning the title."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning felt puzzled.
"Title?"
Shen Wenyan nodded.
"A Great Grandmaster with a title and one without are not on the sa level! Titles are earned through battles, recognized by Grandmasters worldwide."
Jiang Ning said, "What is the Mountain Master’s title of Zhi Xuan Mountain?"
"Marquis Shanhe!" Shen Wenyan replied.
"Marquis Shanhe?" Jiang Ning expressed surprise.
Shen Wenyan nodded: "Since Yun Shanhe’s mastery skill is the Mountain and River Finger, his title embodies that. The world calls him Marquis Shanhe!"
"Why is the title Marquis?" Jiang Ning seed puzzled.
Shen Wenyan chuckled: "Because if one joins the court at Second Grade, they can be sealed as a Marquis! Marquis is an acknowledgnt of the status and strength of a Second Grade Great Grandmaster! Therefore, Second Grade titled Grandmasters are all nad Marquis! So Second Grades even earn the title of King."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning suddenly understood.
Second Grade Great Grandmasters, though not having distinct divisions between strengths like Third Grades, such as top-tier or invincible Grandmasters.
There is still a division of strength.
This division leans more towards practical combat effectiveness.
Ordinary Second Grade Great Grandmasters are like Shen Wenyan, Li Sixiang.
Those stronger, with impressive battle records, renowned throughout the world, obtain titles.
The Mountain Master of Zhi Xuan Mountain, Yun Shanhe.
Is one such titled Grandmaster.
Marquis Shanhe!
Is Yun Shanhe’s title.
From Shen Wenyan’s words, he also understood that the Mountain Master of Zhi Xuan Mountain far surpasses Shen Wenyan in strength.
The two are not on the sa level.
One has just entered Second Grade, not long achieved Second Grade Great Grandmaster.
One is long-established, stepping into Second Grade Great Grandmaster for over sixty years, and achieved a Marquis title, a title-level powerhouse.
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
Jiang Ning subsequently handed over the segnt of finger bone he brought to Shen Wenyan.
"Marquis, please take a look at this item!"
"Is this the item you ntioned earlier?" Shen Wenyan accepted the finger bone Jiang Ning handed, his brow imdiately furrowing.
Jiang Ning then nodded.
"Precisely!"
Shen Wenyan’s brow furrowed tightly: "This item is a piece of Divine Bone."
"Divine Bone?" Jiang Ning appeared surprised.
"Yes!" Shen Wenyan nodded, then continued: "In Ancient Tis, there existed many gods! Gods bear the authority of heaven and earth, born with nurous powers, holding envious positions."
"However, with the upheaval during Ancient Tis, gods fell and transford into remains."
"This segnt of finger bone cos from the Divine Remains of a certain god, hence it can carry the Mountain and River Finger from Yun Shanhe!"
Looking at the piece of finger bone in hand, Shen Wenyan beca more certain of his previous judgnt.
Because within this piece of finger bone, he sensed the residual aura of the Mountain and River Finger.
The retention of intention, enough for him to confirm his earlier judgnt.
At this mont.
Jiang Ning cupped his hands towards Shen Wenyan.
"Thank you, Marquis, for clearing my doubts!"
Shen Wenyan looked at Jiang Ning and nodded.
Then said: "You are very formidable! You exceed my expectations! The intention embedded in the Divine Bone can unleash an attack parallel to that of Marquis Shanhe’s full-force blow!"
"Is that true?" Jiang Ning seriously looked at Shen Wenyan.
"Certainly!" Shen Wenyan nodded, then with emotion, said: "Hard intercepting a Title-level Grandmaster’s full blow, you are invincible in the Blood Exchange Realm!"
At this mont.
Jiang Ning did not resonate emotionally with Shen Wenyan’s praise.
For his attention was captivated by Shen Wenyan’s remarks.
The Mountain and River Finger hidden within the Divine Bone, capable of matching Marquis Shanhe’s full-force blow.
Marquis Shanhe, bearing Yun Shanhe’s title.
This also indicates, he might be able to duel Yun Shanhe.
Even if truly fighting against.
Yun Shanhe couldn’t defeat him.
Various thoughts passed through his mind.
"What plans do you have for the future?" Shen Wenyan saw Jiang Ning was lost in thought and asked.
Jiang Ning imdiately looked up: "Marquis, how is the current situation in the Five Mountains Prefecture? Can it suppress the forces of the sects?"
Shen Wenyan shook his head: "Very difficult, the presence of Zhi Xuan Mountain is far more oppressive than you imagined! Currently, in the Five Mountains Prefecture, no one, neither the original forces of the court nor the newly established Inspection Office, can match that Marquis Shanhe!"
"Is the disparity in strength substantial?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Not extrely substantial!" Shen Wenyan shook his head, then said: "The Residence Master of the Five Mountains Prefecture is much stronger than I am, also of title-level existence. Compared to Marquis Shanhe, just a minor gap!"
"Just a minor gap?" Jiang Ning murmured.
"Yes! Just a minor gap!" Shen Wenyan nodded, continued: "The existence of the Mountain Master from Zhi Xuan Mountain makes the top-tier Grandmaster previously sent to the Five Mountains Prefecture a title-level existence as well."
