Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate Chapter 294: Returning to the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect
🕑 Added 2023-08-15 12:09:27 +0000 UTC
At the Immortal Martial Continent's conference for the top prodigy, influential figures gathered, bringing together nearly all of the prominent powerhouses of the continent at that juncture.
Merely with the Pure Frost Domain's forces, the Demon Race would undeniably be ill-equipped for a covert assault.
Furthermore, considering the portion of the Transcendence realm's hidden underpinnings that humans had, the Demon Race would only act if they possessed a strength on par.
At this moment, other than the Demon Race Army faction in the Pure Frost Domain, the rest remained concealed.
The exact number and potential strength of these hidden forces remained a mystery.
Should Jiang Chen decide to engage, he would undoubtedly embark on a rampage. However, the adversaries he could meet afterward remain uncertain.
Simply put, the situation bore risks.
Additionally, concerning the segment of the Demon Race Army lurking unseen, if they opted to stay hidden, they would pose a continuous menace to the Immortal Martial Continent. Jiang Chen had no desire to be in a constant state of vigilance.
What's more, Jiang Chen couldn't predict when he might cross paths with a new protagonist.
If he failed to confront the Demon Race Army swiftly and then met a new protagonist, battling on dual fronts would escalate the challenges.
Hence, Jiang Chen had no plans to recklessly storm the enemy stronghold alone.
His strategy was to use their own tactics against them, devising a snare to draw them out and seal their doom, with the aim of wiping out the Demon Race Army in a single, defining stroke.
To Jiang Chen, even if his conjecture regarding the Demon Race's initial strategy was off the mark, it was inconsequential. He would still take the initiative to provoke the Demon Race into making a move.
This tactic is termed as luring the snake out of its hole!
"Strategy..." Ji Mingxiu's eyes gleamed with surprise, then he nodded, "Whatever assistance you require, we stand ready."
"We from the Golden Proud Cult pledge our support as well!" Bao Xunwu swiftly chimed in.
They were in the dark about Jiang Chen's plan, but they sensed it would be nothing short of remarkable.
"Very well. Begin by purifying the Vibrant Blaze Domain. Ensure you retrieve the remains of the powerful fallen." Jiang Chen offered a smile, and with a flourish of his right hand, a gray token materialized from nowhere.
Though the token was gray, its design mirrored the golden-red spatial entryway of the Doomsday Cave Heaven.
This was precisely what he had acquired from the legacy: the key to the entrance of Doomsday Cave Heaven!
It could activate one primary portal and five subsidiary portals simultaneously.
The primary portal was stationed at the Black Wood Island maritime zone.
The subsidiary portals could be positioned anywhere on the Immortal Martial Continent.
"Open!" Jiang Chen infused his Dao Yuan Power, and quickly, a potent disturbance emanated from the gray token.
Subsequently, two oscillations materialized behind Jiang Chen. These oscillations grew rapidly and in a mere moment, transformed into two gray whirlpools. These whirlpools soon solidified into two spatial gateways.
One gave access to the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect, while the other led to the Burning Blaze Ancient Sect.
Ji Mingxiu commanded, "Move out!"
Bao Xunwu prompted, "Make haste! Or the demon offspring of the Burning Blaze Ancient Sect may flee!"
Driven by fury, Lu An snarled, "Cursed Demon Race, for each one I seize, I will inflict ten million-fold pain."
United in their mission, Ji Mingxiu, Bao Xunwu, Lu An, and the remaining six Dao Palace realm elites promptly ventured into the portal directing them to the Burning Blaze Ancient Sect.
'Next, I'll address some other matters, get things ready, and then hold the "number one prodigy of the Immortal Martial Continent" conference!' Jiang Chen thought, stroking his chin. He then flew to the two spatial entrances, selecting one to go through.
Instantly, his surroundings changed. He transitioned from the vistas of the Doomsday Cave Heaven to a shimmering beach shoreline.
He was now on the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Island.
Jiang Chen extended his divine sense.
His soul realm was even more advanced than his cultivation level. With support from Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning, his sea of consciousness was greater than that of a typical Transcendence realm expert.
His divine sense spanned an astounding two million kilometers in radius!
On the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Island, Jiang Chen had a panoramic view of the entire Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea, even catching glimpses of the Everflowing Truth Domain.
The vastness of his viewpoint was incredibly invigorating.
'Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo, it's time.' With a gesture from Jiang Chen, the spatial channel behind him sealed shut.
In one stride, he was at the heart of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect. Using his divine sense, he relayed a message to Ji Yilan, Jing Chengwang, and others.
At that very moment, Jing Chengwang and his group were rallying their forces. They aimed for Three Mountains Island, planning to venture into the Cave Heaven for a search operation.
But upon getting Jiang Chen's message, they swiftly changed course and headed in his direction.
It wasn't long before Jing Chengwang and other senior members of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect stood before Jiang Chen. Among them was the enamored beauty, Jing Miaoyao.
"Brother Holy Son!" Jing Miaoyao's eyes lit up like twinkling stars upon seeing Jiang Chen.
"To all my daoist friends," Jiang Chen began, "I've taken care of Gu Ran. As for the other matters, this jade slip will explain everything." He handed the jade slip, which detailed the Doomsday Cave Heaven, to Jing Chengwang. "And I'm here for the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo."
A voice piped up in surprise, "Gu Ran has been dealt with?"
"Of course. Even though that young man mysteriously came back to life and managed to evade us all, he stood no chance against Lord Jiang Chen."
"As for the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo," another voice interjected, "we had planned to give it to you sooner, but then Gu Ran, that unusual individual, showed up."
"Now that matters are clear, the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo should rightfully be returned to you."
Ji Yilan, Jing Chengwang, and others chimed in one after the other.
Shortly after, Jing Chengwang presented a finely crafted jade box.
This box was a seamless piece, entirely shut. From its translucent surface, one could see the multiple layers inside, each having its distinct sealing property.
At its very heart, a faint silver gleam was visible – this was the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo.
"This holds the bloodline of the Ten Thousand Stars Dao Embryo," Jing Chengwang stated, holding the box with great respect before handing it over to Jiang Chen. "Lord Jiang Chen, please take it!"
Acknowledging with a brief nod, Jiang Chen said, "I appreciate it," and accepted the box. "Arrange a private chamber for me."
"Understood!" Jing Chengwang and the others responded promptly.
They prepared the most prestigious meditation chamber in the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect for Jiang Chen.
"I'll guide Brother Holy Son there," Jing Miaoyao offered enthusiastically.
"No need. I can find my way." Jiang Chen said with a smile, shaking his head. In an instant, he disappeared.
When he materialized again, he was already inside the top meditation chamber of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect.
The chamber was nestled within the heart of a mountain on the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Island. Beneath, there was a remarkable view — an ocean where spiritual Qi merged, creating a vast sea of spiritual energy!
The walls around were engraved with myriad runes, enhancing meditation and concentration.
Not long after, Jiang Chen positioned himself on a spirit-gathering stone and gently crushed the jade box he held.
Immediately, a relentless stream of shimmering starlight burst forth, lighting up the entire cavern with a dazzling glow.
