Chapter 741: Chapter 299: Lacking a Guardian?
Jiao Yuan spoke.
"There’s no place for Divine Spirits anymore?"
Jiang Shi’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
"Yes, my lord, do you not know?"
Jiao Yuan continued, "After the Gate of the Fallen Emperor descended, it formed a powerful force that directly integrated with the law of the Great Heng World. It automatically suppresses and repels all Divine Level beings, which means the strongest beings that can descend here are only the Ancient Saints. Anything beyond an Ancient Saint that appears will be immediately annihilated. Thus, now is our greatest opportunity."
"Indeed, let’s go over there."
Ao Yan quickly added.
"Is that so?"
Jiang Shi’s eyes flickered, but inside he sneered, thinking, "You can go if you want, just leave one person here. I, for one, will not go."
"You’re not going?"
The three were stunned.
How could Jiang Shi not go for such a heaven-defying opportunity?
That was the Emperor’s Dao Inheritance!
An existence that could drive countless people mad!
Even if they couldn’t obtain the Emperor’s Dao Inheritance, just acquiring the legacy of any Ancient Saint would be enough to save them countless detours.
"Yes, I’m not going. Leave one person here, the rest can go if they want."
Jiang Shi replied, then turned around and left.
The appearance of the Gate of the Fallen Emperor meant the previous agreements of the Ancient Saints would automatically be broken.
Those Alien Race Ancient Saints would also directly descend upon the Great Heng!
With the spotlight on him now, going would be akin to courting death.
Whether it’s the Thousand Tribulations Sect or the All Stars Tower, there are plenty who want him dead.
Without the Ancient Saints appearing, he naturally wouldn’t regard those two factions as a concern.
But now he must be constantly cautious.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shi immediately sped up and quickly disappeared.
Behind him, the three looked surprised and once again glanced at Jiang Shi.
But they quickly understood Jiang Shi’s thinking.
"Human Race Saints are scarce, he has no Guardian, so he dares not approach..."
Jiao Yuan’s eyes flickered as he muttered.
"Then what should we do?"
Ao Tian’s face shifted, then he gritted his teeth and said, "I’ll stay, Ao Yan, you go!"
"Okay!"
Ao Yan did not refuse at all, nodding directly.
She turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.
Jiao Yuan also gritted his teeth and swiftly left.
Only Ao Tian was left, feeling unwilling, but he had no choice but to chase after Jiang Shi.
Thinking about Jiang Shi now, he indeed seemed quite pitiful.
Even though he had such heaven-defying power, without his own Guardian, he wasn’t even qualified to approach such a great opportunity arising in the East Sea...
No matter on whom such a thing happens, it would be difficult to accept.
"In the end, in this world, it still depends on background. The Human Race is weak, even if one or two prodigies emerge, without anyone to protect them, they quickly wither and die. The more high-profile they are, the quicker they die. Over time, the decline of the Human Race is inevitable..."
Ao Tian’s heart surged.
...
The world was in an uproar.
The news of the appearance of the Gate of the Fallen Emperor spread at an incredibly terrifying speed.
In just two days, it shook the entire world.
Within and outside the Great Heng, countless experts were alarmed.
Both the Alien Race and the Human Race went mad at this moment.
Countless experts swiftly gathered towards the East Sea Shore.
The initially defensive Undersea People couldn’t dare to stop them at all and had to let these experts approach.
In an instant, the entire East Sea Shore was packed with people, with countless figures gathered.
An ancient and vast portal under the sea became increasingly brighter, gradually showing signs of opening.
...
Celestial Demon Headquarters.
After returning, Jiang Shi sat alone cultivating as usual, his entire aura restrained, his mind calm, once again restoring to a state of unruffled tranquility.
It was as if nothing had happened before.
He tried hard to settle down, not giving a thought to outside matters.
Let him be strong, the moon shines over the great river.
Let him be fierce, the gentle breeze caresses the hill.
Now, for Jiang Shi, there was nothing else but cultivation.
In the face of true Ancient Saints, his strength was utterly insignificant.
"Jiang Shi, the Gate of the Fallen Emperor has appeared..."
Daoist Master Xuan appeared not far from him, his expression complex as he spoke.
"I know. Does senior also want to go take a look?"
Jiang Shi sat cross-legged, slowly speaking up.
"Me? I’ll pass."
Daoist Master Xuan bitterly smiled, sighing, "It’s a pity we have too few Human Race Saints to protect us. Otherwise, we would have a place at the East Sea right now!"
He pondered quietly, mumbling, "But, weren’t you looking for the Magic Technique of Tripartite Unity? I know a Half-Saint with high strength. Among other Half-Saints, he should be ranked in the top ten. I can take you to seek his guidance. Do you want to go?"
"Hmm?"
Jiang Shi raised an eyebrow, turning to ask, "Who is it?"
"A friend I was fortunate to know thousands of years ago."
Daoist Master Xuan replied.
Jiang Shi pondered slightly, "Alright, where is he?"
"In the Southern Border mountains."
Daoist Master Xuan replied.
"Okay, take me there."
Jiang Shi agreed.
Even though he had already killed several Half-Saints, he was still clueless about how to achieve the Saint Origin.
Without the guidance and advice of predecessors, exploring on his own would be an absolute waste of time.
Now, instead of sitting idly at the Celestial Demon Headquarters, it was better to explore the Southern Border.
This might help him avoid a lot of trouble.
For who could be sure if some Alien Race Ancient Saint might suddenly break into the Celestial Demon Headquarters looking for him?
Leaving the headquarters now, to avoid the limelight, would definitely be beneficial.
