Chapter 700

A Plot

“What? You said Little Chen had also obtained The Edifying Light?”

Tyrant couldn’t help but feel shock, then he rolled his eyes, admitting silently that Jiang Chen was a monster grade being . Jiang Chen had acquired The Edifying Light despite the fact that he wasn’t a member of the Buddha Sect . This was truly a miracle . Tyrant could also not stand Jiang Chen obtaining The Edifying Light earlier than him, this gave him quite a blow .

However, he still felt relieved about it as he had known Jiang Chen  for quite a while . Tyrant knew the miracles that Jiang Chen had created  all this while, it was senseless to be compared with him .

“But, why would a light beam rush out and take Little Chen away? Where did it brought him? Is it related to edifying?”

Tyrant had many doubts that needed to be answered . If there were peculiar things that happened, it should’ve happened to the both of them since they obtained The Edifying Light together . Instead, the light beam had only taken Jiang Chen away, it truly sounded strange .

“The Edifying Light is a supreme existence . Is it because junior Jiang isn’t a Buddha Sect’s disciple and the light beam is there to punish him for cultivating The Edifying Light?”

Guo Shao Fei said while frowning . Big Yellow and Nangong Wentian were silent for a moment . What Guo Shao Fei said wasn’t unreasonable . Jiang Chen wasn’t a member of Buddha Sect but Tyrant was, so it was natural that he wouldn’t encounter any problems while cultivating The Edifying Light, but only Jiang Chen disappeared without any reason .

“Don’t worry . That kid won’t die . He can deal with anything even if it is an extremely difficult problem . We don’t have to stay here worrying about him, even if we exhaust all our minds worrying for him, it will not solve anything . Moreover, we don’t even know where he has gone to, which makes it impossible for us to help him . ”

Big Yellow shook his head . Although he was also worried for Jiang Chen, he had confidence in him because he followed Jiang Chen  the longest . Thus, he naturally knew his friend’s capability . They had encountered many life threatening situations, but they still survived and continued on their path .

“That’s right, not even the lightning tribulation can kill Little Chen . He is a heaven defying being, he won’t die easily . We don’t have to worry . We should take care of ourselves now . We have been in this ancient tower for three days . Half of the period had already passed since the opening of the Death Mountain . We should continue moving into the deeper regions of the Death Mountain or we’ll be finished if we are not at the exit when the next opening comes . I don’t want to be trapped here for another thirty years . I think Little Chen will meet us there when that time comes . ”

Nangong Wentian said . He had already gotten bored of staying under this mountain, any longer would really drive him mad . He wanted to go out of the mountain so badly and look at the situation and environment of the Divine Continent . If he had to stay in this mountain for another thirty years, he would rather die .

“Hold on for a moment, let me advance first . ”

Tyrant sat down quickly . A wave of Qi started to fluctuate in his body . The scene rendered the three of them to have the urge to beat him up .

However, he was really abnormal . When he said advance, he really did advance . Buddha light glowed out from his body . Then, he reached the Fourth Grade Combat Emperor . However, his Qi didn’t pause after that, it continued to rise until he reached the peak of the Fourth Grade .

It was The Edifying Light that assisted Tyrant in his advancement . The Edifying Light originated from the Great Compassion Mantra, it could bring endless benefits to any disciple of Buddha Sect . Tyrant was different from Jiang Chen as he was a legitimate disciple of the Buddha Sect who was always filled with Buddha light and without a single impurity . That was why he could obtain such great benefits from it . It could be said that the first being that The Edifying Light cleansed after it was fully condensed was Tyrant’s soul .

“Alright, I have finished my advancement, we can go now . ”

Tyrant gently patted his backside and stood up . With a sway of his body, he flew out of the ancient tower . Big Yellow wasn’t affected by it but Nangong Wentian and Guo Shao Fei were totally speechless . The look of the monk really needed some beatings, he made the advancement look so simple as if it was something that could be done effortlessly . This truly gave them a blow .

…… . .

On the other side―in the spatial zone―Jiang Chen’s battle with the dark soul was still ongoing . The dark soul had gone ballistic, the entire spatial zone was filled with its howl . It was using its sharp claws to continuously pound its head―but too bad―he was disrupted by Jiang Chen’s flames and spiritual force, which gave it a hard time in focusing its efforts on forcing The Edifying Light out .

Jiang Chen was sitting cross-legged on the opposite side . His entire body was fully blanketed with a pure Buddha light . His eyes were tightly shut, focusing all of his attention in fighting the dark soul . This type of battle was the most dangerous, showing any signs of weaknesses would lead to death .

With the constant circulation of the Dragon Transformation Art and with the help of numerous powerful herbs and medicines, his injuries were being repaired at a very fast rate . The other thing that he felt joyful about was―that as his injuries were recovering―new dragon marks were also condensing in his Qi Sea .

Jiang Chen understood that this was a blessing in disguise . The previous battle with the dark soul had pushed him to his limits―once again activating a part of his potential strength . In the process of recovery, his body was also constantly absorbing the essences of the medicines . These essences were converted into pure energy and was absorbed by Jiang Chen .

Jiang Chen estimated that as long as he had completed recovering, he would be able to edify this dark soul successfully and advance his cultivation simultaneously .

Nonetheless, he wasn’t in a hurry . He was firm and calm as he knew that he couldn’t be careless or hasty while dealing with such a dark soul . It was fated that this battle would be a lengthy one .

He was trapped in this endless battle while the others were already seeking for potential treasures . However, to Jiang Chen there was no treasure that could attract him now, the giant dark soul in front of him was the most attractive to him .

If Jiang Chen could edify this Minor Saint dark soul and totally subdue it . It would become another trump card of his that could be used without limits―unlike the Talisman of Origin Combat Power of Great Master Ran Feng, which only could be used once .

…… .

At the top of a huge castle in the Freedom Palace, Freedom King was sitting on his precious throne . He closed his eyes slightly, traces of golden light was shimmering between his eyebrows . The surrounding was filled with a strong aura with him at the centre . This shapeless aura was of a Minor Saint grade, anyone who stepped into this area would be totally manipulated by him .

At the bottom of the hall, a sturdy White Tiger was lying on the floor with its indifferent look, but Freedom King didn’t dare to provoke it . If the White Tiger goes mad, he wouldn’t stand a chance―the White Tiger was a lot stronger than him .

At this moment, the air in the hall trembled, followed by a ray of golden light . It turned into a man, Nan Bei Chao .

Nan Bei Chao’s face screamed murder . His Qi was slightly unstable and his eyes were insidious .

“Prince Nan Bei, how was it? Have you killed that Jiang Chen?”

Freedom King saw Nan Bei Chao appear and asked promptly .

“Humph! That bastard was already a Fourth Grade Combat Emperor but his combat strength is on par with mine . And he still has a scary weapon in his hand that can unleash a terrifying magma . If I wasn’t strong enough, I would have been incinerated in our battle . ”

Nan Bei Chao made a cold humph . He felt very gloomy and aggrieved when he thought of the battle in the Death Mountain . This is the second time that he had failed to kill Jiang Chen . He swore that he wouldn’t let another failure happen .

“What? Fourth Grade Combat Emperor? He was merely a Second Grade Combat Emperor when he entered the mountain . How long has it been for him to reach the Fourth Grade? This Jiang Chen is truly scary, he needs to be killed as soon as possible . ”

Freedom King’s face changed slightly . Jiang Chen’s speed of advancement was too quick and scary . He thought that Jiang Chen’s death would be certain when Nan Bei Chao attacked, but Nan Bei Chao was the one who suffered instead .

The fact was that Nan Bei Chao possessed the true Immortal Physique . An extraordinary genius like him was one of a kind, but Jiang Chen was way too scary when they were compared . Jiang Chen, a Fourth Grade Combat Emperor, was on par with Nan Bei Chao―a Sixth Grade Combat Emperor .

“That man will die under my hands sooner or later . Tomorrow, I will go to the Immortal Possessive Mountain to obtain the Immortal legacy . By that time, my progress of advancement will be astonishing . A mere Jiang Chen won’t be worthy enough to be put in my eyes . ”

Nan Bei Chao said .

“Alright . If Prince Nan Bei really obtained the legacy, I believe you will become more powerful . Our plan for conquering the Mysterious Domain can be executed ahead of time . ”

Freedom King’s face was full of surprise . He knew what kind of benefits Nan Bei Chao would get if he entered the Immortal Possessive Mountain .

The Immortal Possessive Mountain was one of the forbidden areas in the Divine Continent . The legend said that the Immortal’s possession lied beneath the mountain but those who entered in search for the Immortal’s treasure died within . Only a few of them came out, but they had all turned mad .

Therefore, this mountain had become forbidden . However, Nan Bei Chao was a reincarnation of an Immortal Soul, which carried the will of the Immortals . Thus, he could go in or out of the mountain as he pleased .

“Not just the Mysterious Domain, there are also a few large domains that must be under my control . Our first step towards conquering the Mysterious Domain is to eliminate the four major powers’ geniuses . ”

Nan Bei Chao revealed a cold smile .

Freedom King was startled for a few seconds, he couldn’t grasp what Nan Bei Chao meant .

“Most of the geniuses of the major powers are currently in the Death Mountain and the highest grade to enter was only an Eighth Grade Combat Emperor . If we secretly send a Ninth Grade Combat Emperor into it and allowed him to release his power, it could possibly ignite the reformation of the seal―bringing disaster to everyone under the mountain . ”

Nan Bei Chao said coldly .

*Hiss*

Such words had rendered Freedom King to heave a cold sigh . This method was too sinister . If such an accident were to happen in the Death Mountain, no one would be able to escape from the mountain . To the whole Mysterious Domain, it would be a disaster .
