Chapter 1741: Chapter 1780: Supreme Ancient Saint (Fourth Update)
He was secretly anxious, wondering if the woman had really succeeded in controlling the Saint’s corpse.
A flash of murderous intent appeared deep in his eyes, but after sweeping over the white-clothed young man, he hesitated again.
Now is not the time to act!
He stayed put, silently following them across the vast land of the Eleventh Layer.
That stone pillar seemed just within reach.
But it took Tian Ge half a day to reach it at his speed.
From up close, Jiang Fan could see the true face of the stone pillar.
Its diameter was as large as the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, and it stretched several hundred zhang long and wide!
The top part pierced into the Tenth Layer.
The bottom part reached all the way to the Hell Realm!
Strangely enough.
On this land, where the dense Yin Qi made it difficult even for a Human Clan Divinity Transformation to stay for long, there grew a sky-reaching ancient tree!
Its entire body was lush green, exuding a dense Spiritual Energy that nourished the ground within a thousand zhang around it, turning it into a lush grassy meadow.
Clusters of butterflies and little insects lived happily in a world centered around the grass and the tree.
They formed a serene Small World, completely different from the outside world filled with Yin Qi.
Jiang Fan looked up, his pupils trembling.
Under the sky-reaching ancient tree sat a man in white.
He leaned against the trunk, as if asleep.
His long black hair fluttered lightly in the breeze, with a butterfly perched quietly on his shoulder, its wings folded.
The swaying shadows of the trees gently swept across him, lifting his white clothes slightly.
Jiang Fan swallowed hard.
Is that the Ancient Saint of Central Earth?
He tried to look at the man’s face, yet found he couldn’t see it clearly; even when he focused his gaze, the features would blur.
It seemed as if invisible rules were preventing him.
The white-clothed young man slightly nodded: "So it is the Supreme Ancient Saint."
"Fallen, and it turns out to be him."
Tian Ge’s eyes were aglow with expectation: "You know him?"
The white-clothed youth’s voice was soft, filled with nostalgia for ancient times, "Ten thousand years ago, he was the most brilliant talent, who didn’t know him?"
"His sudden rise once illuminated All Heavens, making all beings think the era of gods had returned."
"I never thought, after ten thousand years, seeing him again, he has also fallen just like me."
"Heh, heh~ Sometimes heaven is most heartless."
Tian Ge’s eyes shone even brighter, his excitement uncontrollable: "In that case, will I possess an invincible body that dominates the Saint Realm?"
The white-clothed youth coughed and said, "With him, you can truly be invincible across the Three Realms."
Tian Ge impatiently gripped the black Crystal, saying, "Senior, please lend me a hand."
"With my Soul Power alone, it’s hard to unleash the full power of the World Artifact."
"Once the task is complete, I will personally send your Remnant Soul back to the Hell Realm."
The white-clothed youth nodded slightly, raised his hand, and caught the black Crystal in his palm.
He quietly examined the World Artifact and said, "It’s indeed the Eye of Hell of the Dark Shura Clan, even a Saint could be affected at its peak."
"With just my Remnant Soul, I can only exert a tenth of its power, enough to barely control a Sage, or the Saint’s corpse."
Tian Ge urged impatiently, "Senior, please act quickly."
The white-clothed youth put down the Eye of Hell, hands behind his back, and said calmly:
"No haste, before making a move, we should first deal with any hidden dangers."
"My friend, having followed us for so long, it’s time to show yourself."
What?
Tian Ge’s expression changed, surprised: "Someone’s been following us? Is it the Asura King you mentioned?"
The white-clothed youth shook his head, "No, someone more formidable than the Asura King."
His gaze shifted, looking toward where Jiang Fan was hiding.
Just one look, and Jiang Fan felt his soul about to shatter, his entire body turning icy cold as if plunged into an ice cellar.
His Invisibility Technique was instantly broken, revealing his presence!
"It’s you?" Tian Ge immediately recognized Jiang Fan, shocked.
In her mind flashed memories of Jiang Fan tormenting her, especially with that black stick hitting her head, causing days and nights of unbearable pain.
Her eyes instantly ignited with fury, "Kill him! This Human Clan deserves a thousand deaths!"
Jiang Fan gritted his teeth, enduring the soul-searing pain, activating the Flawless Domain, allowing his torn soul to heal.
The expression of agony on his face finally eased a little.
His eyes were filled with suspicion, certain that the white-clothed youth in his past life was definitely the Boundary Master of the Hell Realm!
Very likely one of the two Hell Realm Masters who fell during the expedition to the Heavenly Realm ten thousand years ago.
A strand of his Remnant Soul landed in the Heavenly Realm, unexpectedly discovered by Tian Ge.
One wanted to return to the Hell Realm, the other desired limitless power.
Thus, the two easily formed an alliance and devised a plan to seize the Saint’s corpse!
"A peculiar Domain." The white-clothed youth seemed slightly surprised, clearly understanding the Domain’s uniqueness.
Tian Ge urged, "Senior, quickly kill him!"
"He cannot learn my secrets!"
Jiang Fan recovered and gave her a cold sidelong glance: "Foolishly clever!"
"Being manipulated without knowing it!"
Tian Ge laughed softly, "Why do you say so?"
Jiang Fan said lightly:
"You want the Saint’s corpse, but he desires it even more!"
"A Boundary Master’s Remnant Soul, searching the world, won’t find a better possession target than the Supreme Ancient Saint’s corpse, how could he let you have it?"
"You stole a clan treasure to protect him here, yet it’s all part of his manipulation."
"Now, your value has been exhausted, and there’s no future for you."
Upon hearing, Tian Ge’s smile widened.
She shook her head, "Hehe, you are the foolishly clever one. Such a simple principle, if you can think of it, how could I not?"
She took out a trace of blue soul, which was actually the white-clothed youth’s!
This trace of blue soul was enveloped by the Curse Power of the Giant Emperor.
With just a thought, Tian Ge could terminate the white-clothed youth’s Remnant Soul body through this strand of soul.
Tian Ge displayed the strand of soul to Jiang Fan, confident and fearless, "Senior, this man is trying to sow discord."
"But his means are not very clever, hehe."
The white-clothed youth coughed once and said calmly, "He’s not exactly sowing discord; most of what he said is true."
Hmm?
Tian Ge’s expression stiffened, instinctively clutching the soul strand, "Senior, what do you mean?"
The white-clothed youth looked over, meeting Tian Ge’s gaze.
The next moment, a captivating aura enveloped everything.
Tian Ge’s skeptical gaze transformed into an emotionless infatuation, staring at the white-clothed youth, like a girl waiting for her beloved.
The white-clothed youth extended his palm: "Give it to me."
Without any hesitation, Tian Ge returned the strand of soul to the white-clothed youth.
The latter flicked his finger, dispelling the Curse Power surrounding the soul, then swallowed it back, reintegrating it into his body.
At that moment, Tian Ge regained clarity, finding her hand empty, and quickly looked up, her eyes trembling, as her heart sank.
