Chapter 2169: Chapter 2213: Martial Vault’s Shock
Jiang Fan lay in the pit for a long time before he managed to gather enough strength to sit up.
He only then began to feel the pain coursing through his entire body.
The pain was on a soul level, a physical level.
On the surface, and deep in the bones.
He hadn’t felt it during the battle, but now that he had calmed down, the pain came rushing in like a tide.
He had lost track of how many injuries he sustained during the battle, or what kind of injuries they were.
In any case, his whole body was wounded.
Enduring the pain, he looked inwardly at his body. He hadn’t known what to expect, but what he saw startled him.
His body was riddled with unhealable injuries inflicted by Laws!
Even on the soul level!
His body was in utter disarray!
If he didn’t repair it quickly, the consequences would be severe.
He clutched the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths, feeling the nearby heartbeats, and discovered a place with an extremely dense heartbeat pulse located several days’ journey from here.
It seemed to be a bustling area south of the Martial Vault.
There should be Great Pills or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures there that could heal him.
At the center of the Martial Vault.
Above a great hall.
A number of Great Sages at the Three Calamities Realm and dozens of Sages rose into the sky, gazing intently beyond the heavens.
Jian Qingmei was among them.
She looked up toward beyond the heavens, vaguely seeing a terrifying shadow in a black cloak billowing in the wind, racing across the sky above the Martial Vault.
Her expression was extremely serious.
Shortly after.
A young man emanating a powerful aura materialized from the void beside her.
His cultivation was mighty, and it felt as if a fierce sword resided within his body, giving off an extremely dangerous sensation.
It was none other than Jian Wuchou!
An exceptional prodigy of void, who had opened eight meridians, with cultivation comparable to the mid-stage Three Calamities Realm!
"What happened? Why is the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis outside my Martial Vault?"
His gaze locked onto the trajectory of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s actions, and his expression changed.
This ancient monster, having lived for ten thousand years, seemed like a forbidden relic to him.
Jian Qingmei replied, "Three days ago, someone fought a great battle with the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis outside our Martial Vault."
Hmm?
Jian Wuchou was surprised, "Someone could actually fight the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis?"
"He must be some old monster at the Late Stage Three Calamities Realm or even at Perfection, right?"
If it were the latter, it wouldn’t be surprising.
Though rare, such ancient monsters do exist within the worlds of the All Heavens.
Jian Qingmei shook her head, "No, according to nearby observers at the time, it was a young man."
"His cultivation age is likely less than sixty years."
Jian Wuchou’s gaze suddenly became sharp, "Less than sixty years?"
"To battle the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, one would at least need a Late Stage Three Calamities Realm cultivation!"
"When did such an unparalleled prodigy appear in the Hundred Realms of All Heavens?"
However, he was more curious than anything.
He didn’t take the other person too seriously.
As the most outstanding of the young generation in the Martial Vault, he had abandoned the legacy created by the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation and retraced the old path of bloodline inheritance.
In just twenty years, he had successfully reached the Realm of Eight Meridians.
Given another ten years, why would reaching the Nine Veins Realm be difficult?
The other person took sixty years to cultivate to the Late Stage Three Calamities Realm, quite far behind him.
Jian Qingmei pondered, the image of the Champion Marquis Jiang Fan flashed through her mind.
The prodigies of the Hundred Realms of All Heavens had long made their names known.
Where could a new prodigy suddenly emerge?
The only possibility was Jiang Fan, a being that defied conventional logic.
However, recalling their last parting, he was still in the Heavenly Human Two Declines, and would even address her as senior.
That thought was immediately extinguished in her mind.
No matter how defiant Jiang Fan was, it was impossible for him to become someone capable of battling the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis in just a month or two, right?
Jian Wuchou asked again, "What was the final result of the battle? Most likely that person was severely injured by the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, right?"
"To survive a direct clash with the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis is already an immense skill."
Jian Qingmei hesitated for a moment, then said, "It was the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis who was severely injured, and the person left calmly."
What?
The Sword Qi in Jian Wuchou’s body stirred, he was incredulous, "How is that possible?"
"Among the current prodigies of the Hundred Realms of All Heavens, only the top two could possibly injure the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, no one else could!"
The thought that a new person could injure the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, someone he didn’t even have the courage to face, disturbed him greatly.
Jian Qingmei rubbed her temple, "I also found it hard to believe when I first heard it."
"But, according to our observers, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis was indeed severely injured and has not yet recovered."
Jian Wuchou clenched his fists tightly, his eyes burning with jealousy.
He could accept that those two might have the power to injure the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis because their identities were special.
But this newfound person from who-knows-where, how could they tread over him?
"Who is he?"
Jian Qingmei said, "Many people want to know."
Jian Wuchou angrily said, "He came to our Martial Vault, why didn’t those monitoring the battle track him?"
Jian Qingmei gave a mysterious glance at the sky, clasped her hands in prayer, and said:
"The King of the Weapon Vault... forbade us from investigating."
Jian Wuchou trembled all over, immediately extinguishing the jealousy in his eyes, and became humble and respectful.
Southern Martial Vault.
A magnificent, ancient giant city so immense it left Jiang Fan speechless unfolded before him.
He couldn’t find a unit to describe its immensity.
Because it couldn’t be measured.
He could only rely on the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths to sense that its size was about the same as all of Central Earth...
What shocked him even more.
Was that within this central southern city, there were actually seven beings with exceedingly powerful auras.
He had only seen such heartbeats in those at the Three Calamities Realm!
"How many Three Calamities Realm does the Martial Vault have?" Jiang Fan muttered to himself in amazement.
In this central southern city alone, there were seven, so, in the north, east, west, and central, were there also seven each?
Wouldn’t that add up to over thirty Three Calamities Realm beings?
Thinking of his journey, where the majority of smaller worlds had only one Three Calamities Realm being.
He profoundly realized the power of the Four Great Worlds!
If they wished, the surrounding smaller worlds wouldn’t be able to withstand their invasion at all.
No,
Smaller worlds, apart from a World Embryo, have nothing worth their notice!
They disdain to invade, they fear the creatures from smaller worlds coming to their world to vie for resources instead.
After marveling for a while, Jiang Fan gazed at the giant city ahead, casually using Instantaneous Movement to appear at the city’s gate.
The entrance to this city was engraved with giant characters.
"Divine Strategy City!"
Jiang Fan mouthed the words "Divine Strategy" to himself, unsure of their meaning.
But suddenly, a deafening explosive sound was heard.
Looking closely.
From the center of the city, a terrifying red beam shot out, smashing through the void, melting the indestructible world barrier into a huge hole.
Jiang Fan gasped sharply.
Such a massive gap, the One Calamity Realm couldn’t create it!
What was this thing, with such immense power?
