Chapter 1431: Chapter 1455: Ice Butterfly
The eyes of the Golden Scale Venerate lit up, but then he shook his head again:
"Among the sages left in Central Earth, none can move freely."
"Either they’re injured or there’s some special situation limiting their actions."
"But aside from a sage taking action, who else could frighten away all the Hell Creatures of the East Road?"
Not to mention him.
Even the Young Emperor had stopped pursuing the Hell Creatures and paused to look at the projection of the Ice Heart Venerate.
Under the gaze of the three Great Venerates, after half a cup of tea’s time.
The endless Beast Tide finally reached its end.
Their gaze focused, looking behind the Beast Tide to see exactly who it was.
However, the scene before them left the three experiencing the Heavenly Human Five Declines in silence.
They saw a woman in palace attire, panting heavily as she chased the Hell Creatures, shouting:
"Brother Hell Creatures ahead, you dropped your money."
The running Hell Creatures turned back with a fierce glare at her.
As if saying, do you take us for fools?
The pursuit had left everyone in Taicang State exhausted, gradually unable to keep up with the escape speed of the Hell Creatures.
They could only think of ways to make them stop.
Jiang Fan also took a deep breath.
After non-stop slaughter for half a cup of tea, he couldn’t count how many he’d killed.
He only knew that his entire body was depleted of strength, his hands trembling.
He couldn’t even wield his three Top-grade Spirit Swords.
Seeing the Beast Tide about to reach the rift, he knew he had to kill now or it would be too late.
He opened his mouth and spoke in the Hell language: "Brother ahead, your damn thing fell off!"
A few of the running Hell Creatures instinctively tightened their legs and slowed down.
Jiang Fan seized the chance to rush forward, gathering his last thread of Thunder Power into a Hell Lotus and threw it among them.
With a booming explosion, three Hell Creatures were blasted upside down on the spot.
With open mouths, they gurgled Hell language.
Apparently, it was a cordial and friendly greeting to Jiang Fan.
Awaiting them were the strong from Taicang State, who rushed forward together, obliterating their corpses and bones under wild bombardment.
The three Great Venerates stood in astonishment.
The Golden Scale Venerate’s eyelids twitched as he said, "Is this a powerhouse from the Heavenly State?"
"They’re... quite distinctive."
The Young Emperor’s speech was faster than usual: "Not from our Heavenly State!"
The Ice Heart Venerate looked at Jiang Fan’s middle-aged face, somewhat speechless:
"A person of such age, yet still so improper?"
However, she still couldn’t understand why the Hell Creatures scrambled in panic.
Could it be that someone had done something to instill fear in the Hell Creatures?
Her gaze fell back on Jiang Fan, thinking, "It must be his doing."
"The only variable in the defense line is his presence."
But she did not speak out.
A single person’s power driving endless Hell Creatures was an alarming event across Central Earth.
It could easily attract attention from those with intentions who might want to control the Hell Creatures through him.
Moreover, he only possessed an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul, akin to a child flaunting a golden ingot.
She calmly said to the Young Emperor and the Golden Scale Venerate, "Let’s not worry about why the Hell Creatures mutated for now."
"The priority is to quell the chaos."
"Golden Scale Venerate, hold the West Road."
"Once we clear the Hell Creatures on the East Road, we’ll come to assist you."
The Golden Scale Venerate’s eyes showed a glimmer of hope.
Finally, there was a ray of hope!
He nodded and said, "Waiting for your good news!!"
The Ice Heart Venerate put away the scales, closed the communication, and flew to Jiang Fan’s side, accompanying him in driving away the Hell Creatures.
"You’re not called Wang Chongxiao, are you?"
Lately, in the various states, the names Wang Chongxiao and Jiang Fan had sprung up like bamboo shoots after the rain.
The main difference was.
Those impersonating Wang Chongxiao mostly did shady deeds and dared not show their true faces.
Conversely, those claiming to be Jiang Fan often did righteous and proud deeds, proudly calling themselves Jiang Fan.
The Wang Chongxiao in front of her was undoubtedly a fake name.
Just not sure what dishonest deed he was about to do, impersonating Wang Chongxiao.
Jiang Fan moved aside, keeping a distance from this terrifying Heavenly Human Five Declines, and politely said:
"Senior, you are wise. Junior is the Crown Prince of the West Sea Demon Clan in Taicang State."
The Ice Heart Venerate nodded slightly: "West Sea Crown Prince, is it?"
"Thanks to you this time, otherwise it would’ve been hard to resolve."
She lightly flicked her sleeve.
An ice butterfly flew out from the sleeve and landed on Jiang Fan’s shoulder.
"This is a Magical Treasure I crafted in my leisure time; once activated, it can shield against Domain influence."
"It can only be used three times, make good use of it."
Is there such a good thing in the world?
Jiang Fan was overjoyed, quickly catching it, gratefully saying, "Thank you for the gift, Senior!"
Pausing, Jiang Fan asked again, "Besides the Domain in Central Earth, can it also block the Giant King’s source?"
The Ice Heart Venerate pondered, "I’ve never tried, but the Domain in Central Earth and the Giant King’s source are both forms of heavenly power, ultimately the same."
"It should also work."
Jiang Fan cherished it even more.
He remembered when he was cursed by the Luck Giant King, crashing through Green Pearl’s bath.
With the Ice Butterfly, at least he could avoid strange and unknown source manipulation.
Jiang Wuya and other strong individuals from Taicang State frowned secretly.
West Sea Crown Prince?
Among them, although none had seen the West Sea Crown Prince, they knew the situation in the West Sea.
Just an Old Demon Emperor at the Initial Period realm holding the fort.
Where did a Late-stage Nascent Soul elder monster come from?
Clearly, he was deceiving the Ice Heart Venerate.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wuya secretly wiped a cold sweat.
Good heavens, who is this person really?
Daring to fool a Heavenly Human Five Declines Venerate!
Aren’t they afraid of being exposed?
In their bewilderment, the running speed of the Hell Creatures suddenly slowed down and became more crowded.
Looking up.
At the end of the underground world was a golden mountain mass, the underground extension of the Spiritual Snake Mountain.
On the mountain body was a thousand-zhang wide and hundred-zhang high black fissure.
Endless Yin Qi gushed out like a flood from the fissure.
The Hell Creatures crowded to squeeze back into the fissure, thus crowding near the fissure.
"This place is the so-called rift, right?"
Jiang Fan stared at the fissure, his eyes slowly narrowing.
The shape of the fissure looked as if it had been torn open by a colossal claw.
And such a claw, he had seen once before.
It was the demonic claw of the Asura Saint Son!
Furthermore, there should be a strong world barrier between the interlayer world and the Demon Continent.
To tear apart the barrier and connect the two realms, only a Sage or higher could possibly achieve that.
"What are you looking at?"
The Ice Heart Venerate noticed Jiang Fan suddenly stopping, and couldn’t help but ask.
Jiang Fan thought for a moment. Since he finally had a chance to talk with a Great Venerate, he should ask some questions.
"Senior, may I ask how many sages have emerged in the past millennium?"
That Asura Saint Son escaped from the underground world of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion eight hundred years ago.
So his ascension to sagehood should have happened within the last millennium.
