Chapter 3396: Success and Failure

"treasure."To be honest, Jiang Yun had never considered it a treasure. He thought it was just Jiang Yue'er's childish words. But since it was given by Jiang Yue'er, it represented a connection betwee...At this moment, Jiang Yun, although he simultaneously cast the Nine Sacrificial Heaven Art and the Art of Mastering Reincarnation, allowing his strength to be enhanced to two levels, in fact, strictly speaking, he is not at his strongest state in this lifetime.

After all, before he performed the two secret techniques, his cultivation realm had fallen to the peak of the Treading Void Realm.

His strongest state should be able to reach the invincible realm of defying heaven.

And now, the most he can exert is perhaps the seventh or eighth level of the Heavenly Defying Realm.

However, this is indeed the limit of Jiang Yun's current abilities. His soul and life force have been reduced to the very last sliver; there is simply no way to increase his power even by a fraction anymore.

Therefore, as the winds of nine forces entered his body, Ginger Cloud didn't have a moment to hesitate or contemplate. Seizing the opportunity provided by this borrowed power, he charged straight towards his acupoint with all his might.

I have to say, Ginger Cloud's actions were so bold and her punching speed was incredibly fast, it truly caught the thirteen powerful beings including the Angel of Patrol off guard.

Although Jiang Yun even borrowed the power of nine winds, the fist he wielded was, in their eyes, not a threat at all.

But at this moment, they also involuntarily held their breath and stared intently at the ten-thousand zhang life gate.

After all, it's better to be safe than sorry!

If Jiang Yun's punch really shattered his lifeline, then he would have taken another step closer to transforming his life gate into a door of death.

And besides, outside the Heavenly Domains, who knows how many powerful beings are secretly waiting to protect Jian Yun.

If Jiang Yun successfully entered the Zhutian Gathering Domain, it is very likely that he would disappear among the vast heavens and earth, making it impossible for him and others to find him again.

It wasn't just the celestial sentinels who watched, their gazes fixed. Within the ancient domain, even those ancient beings like Fu Yi and others of his ilk, the elders of the Five Spirits Clan and Wu Yao Hua, as well as figures like Gu Bu Lao from beyond the realm of myriad heavens, all intently observed Jiang Yun's fist.

Especially on the face of Gu Bulao, a rare hint of nervousness appeared.

Although this wasn't about them trying to shatter the life gate, whether or not Jiang Yun could do so would bring different impacts and results for each of them.

As for Ji Kongfan and the others, although they were clueless before, after Guan Zhuang's introduction, they already understood the concept of transforming fate into a sect.

Ji Kongfan was even more aware that this was the only chance for Jiang Yun to escape from the hands of thirteen top-tier powerhouses, so he was also somewhat tense.

Although he couldn't see Jiang Yun's figure, he could see the gate of ten thousand lives. Their gazes were all focused on the gate of life, waiting expectantly.

However, at this moment, Ginger Cloud has cast all her thoughts aside.

In his eyes, there was only his own Ten Thousand Gates of Life. His mind held but a single thought: to shatter this gate at any cost!

With white hair flying, a similar towering figure of the annihilation Dao body appeared behind him. He stood side by side, clenched his fist tightly, and in an instant, arrived before the acupoint of life and death, smashing it fiercely downwards.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar shook the heavens and earth, causing the gates of life to tremble violently!

Jiang Yun and Ji Mie Dao Ti were both sent flying backward by the force of the counter-shock that came from above their dantian. It was like they had been struck with a heavy blow, causing blood to surge within them.

The state of extinction, the path to annihilation, simply vanishes into thin air without a trace.

All of this, Jiang Yun didn't pay attention to. He quickly retreated, his eyes widening to their limit, staring fixedly at the pulsating acupoint!

Everyone was also staring at the Gate of Life.

"Boom!"

Finally, as Jiang Yun's figure that had been knocked back stopped, the tightly closed acupoint at his life gate slowly opened towards both sides!

"Success!"

Gǔ bù lǎo's eyes gleamed, and when he uttered these three words, his palm couldn't help but wave heavily in the air, expressing his inner excitement and enthusiasm.

Ji Kongfan also smiled and gently nodded.

And Xueqing and the others behind him, seeing that opened gate of life, unexpectedly felt a surge of excitement and anticipation in their hearts!

Compared to the excitement of people like Gu Bulao, the expressions of thirteen powerful beings like the Heavenly Patrol Angels naturally sank.

Gu Yang said coldly: "I didn't expect him to succeed!"

"Aside, Lord Zhen Que's face was gloomy as he said: 'Only a mere shattering of the acupoint. We are still one step away from true success!'"

"Good!" The Heavenly Venerable Leiyin clasped his hands together and said: "This last step is something he simply cannot take."

Jiang Yun's chest heaved violently, his gaze fixed just as intently on his own life gate.

The Gate of Life and Death, is slowly opening. Although the speed isn't fast, it's steady and unhurried, seeming as if nothing can stop its opening.

Just a short while ago, it had already opened over 20%, and it is still continuing to open.

Three times!

40%!

Nine out of ten!

When the 命門 (life gate) opens to ninety percent, everyone who cares about Jiang Yun lets out a sigh of relief.

Because they were almost certain that Jiang Yun had successfully completed the second condition of transforming fate into a gate, he had opened the gate of life with his own power in one go!

However, Ginger Cloud herself didn't think so!

Perhaps it was because he had been staring at the point of vulnerability for too long, causing his eyes to play tricks on him, but he felt that the point of vulnerability was gradually slowing down as it opened outwards.

"

Boom!

"

Finally, after another slight tremor, Jiang Yun's acupoint of life ceased to move.

However, the gate of life was not fully opened, but stopped at 95% position!

At this moment, the Linggu Domain and the Zhutian Gathering Domain both fell silent once more. Everyone was stunned into silence.

Even the patrolling angels were somewhat incredulous, that Jiang Yun's life gate was still half-short of being fully opened.

Gu Bulao's eyes were almost bulging out of their sockets. He wished he could rush into the Linggu Domain right now to help Jiang Yun deliver another punch to that life gate, completely opening it.

After a long time had passed, the Void Heavenly Venerable murmured, "Does anyone know if this level of life gate is considered successful or a failure"

"Of course it was a failure!"

The Heavenly Venerable burst into laughter and said, "Don't even say it's half short, even if it's just a sliver away from being opened, it's considered a failure!"

Standing still, a bitter expression appeared on Ginger Cloud's face. Her eyes stared blankly at her dantian, and a feeling of helplessness arose in her heart.

He, of course, was far clearer than anyone else that his punch hadn't fully opened his own life gate.

I, failed!

He paid with his soul and his offering, he paid with everything he had, and in the end, this was the result of his failure.

"Yikes!"

Just when everyone thought that Jiang Yun at this moment must be very unwilling, Jiang Yun suddenly let out a long sigh from his mouth, and the bitterness on his face turned into relief.

Although he didn't succeed, he tried his best and therefore accepted the result calmly.

Next, he was about to face the torment of those thirteen top-tier powerhouses.

As expected, before Jiang Yun could finish his breath, Zhen Que Tian Zun had already let out a cold smile and took a step towards Jiang Yun, reaching out to grab him.

Meanwhile, Gu Bulao suddenly raised his leg, apparently preparing to rush into the Linggu Realm to save his disciples.

...and in his rage, he had forgotten his agreement with Jiang Li and the others, not bothering to inform them at all.

"No!"

The old man beside him was worried that if Jiang Yun failed to transform his life into the Gate, Gu Bulao, with his overprotective personality, would recklessly rush into the Linggu Realm. Therefore, he always kept an eye on Gu Bulao's reaction.

Now seeing it was indeed as he had guessed, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed Gu Bulao's arm.

Let go!

Gu Bulao didn't look back. As he coldly spoke, power began to gather in his arms, preparing to break free.

However, at that very moment, within the Linggu Domain, as the palm of Zhèn Qiē Tiān Zūn was about to touch Jiāng Yún's shoulder, a sudden cry erupted from his mouth.

Immediately following that, his figure flew backwards in a stunning display!n reason, he imprisoned all the demon cultivators and his brothers in the Dao Prison.But the demon tamer managed to escape, successively rescuing Man Shang and Hei Lao Gui and others. He even founded...
