“Oh really? Is he the one who saved us?”
One of the Hierarch Realm experts said with a look of disbelief.
“That is true. Believe it or not, he is your life savior.”
Qian Renji said coldly.
“So, it seems like you are from the Outer Palace, but there is nothing ordinary about your strength. The five of us nearly died just now but you are still able to save us. Haha. That’s interesting.”
“If someone tries to bully you in the future, just call out my name, Chi Haifeng. I am sure that they’ll lose their nerve upon hearing my name.”
“Don’t hesitate to look for me when someone tries to make things difficult for you. I am one of the elders of the Inner House, Yang Xikuan.”
“I am a disciple from the Inner Palace, my name is Sheng Kun.”
“I am from the Inner Palace too, you can call me Sheng Bing.”
Even though the four of them did not talk much about it, they were very obliged by Jiang Chen’s help. Apparently, Jiang Chen took great comfort from their words.
“I am Jiang Chen, a disciple from the Outer Palace.”
Jiang Chen said without a change in expression. He was able to look calm and fearless even when facing the Inner Palace’s elders and Half-step Hierarch Realm disciples, which was quite impressive. They then left the Spectre Valley swiftly as it was not a safe place to stay. They had to report this to the Palace Lord as soon as possible.
“So your name is Qian Renji?”
Jiang Chen fixed his eyes on Qian Renji with a surprised look.
“Do you know me?”
Qian Renji wrinkled her brows and looked at Jiang Chen curiously.
“Someone mentioned your name before.”
Qian Renji’s body was trembling violently, giving a significant glance at Jiang Chen.
“Who?”
“Zi Qingtian, he told me to send his regards to you.”
Jiang Chen answered.
“As the years went on, even dust and ashes disappeared. Perhaps you managed to escape now, do you think that you could hide forever? I am certain that you would be overcome by a guilty conscience.”
Qian Renji said with a cold smile. Jiang Chen found a shade of sorrow and loneliness on her face. It seemed like there were some subtle emotions between Qian Renji and Zi Qingtian, it was not an ordinary teacher-student relations.h.i.+p.
“You should leave now. I guess the second Palace Lord will arrive soon, if I am not mistaken.”
Qian Renji avoided getting entangled with this issue again. It was meaningless and fruitless to pursue it when something had happened.
“What happened to the Storm of Soul?”
Jiang Chen knitted his brows and asked in a deep voice.
“I am not supposed to tell you this but since you saved my life and you’re his friend, I will not keep it from you then. The Spectre Valley was actually transformed from an ancient beast, its name is the Nine Void Beast which could soar up into the sky and descend into the earth easily. It was trapped here by a Hierarch expert from the Profound Connection Divine Palace, and turned into a valley in those years. Unfortunately, the Nine Void Beast would run rampant after some time even though it was already sealed. There were already more than ten people who died under the Storm of Soul. However, the Profound Connection Divine Palace did not shut down this place completely as the Spectre Valley is an attractive place for cultivation after all.”
“Nine Void Beast……”
Jiang Chen murmured under his breath. It seemed like the Nine Void Beast was not an ordinary beast, only a Hierarch expert was capable of sealing it here. He even failed to kill it.
“Is the Nine Void Beast still alive?”
“Millions of years have pa.s.sed, I think only its soul would be left even if it is still alive. However, all of us will die if it is not eliminated completely. It is still incomparable and unbeatable for us.”
Qian Renji shook her head, her eyes were filled with anxiety.
At this moment, countless shadows broke through the sky and entered the Spectre Valley rapidly.
“Master Ji, why are you still here? This place is going to be sealed again, you have to leave immediately.”
A gigantic figure, who was standing above the void, said in a deep voice. Jiang Chen could feel the terrifying aura and extraordinarily strong oppression, even his glance was irresistible and formidable.
“Is he a Divine Emperor expert? His dignity is just remarkable and imposing.”
Jiang Chen was impressed. He realized that there were another two figures. One of them is Master Lin whom he had met once when he entered the Profound Connection Divine Palace and the other person is a white-haired elder, whom he had not seen before. The strength of the white-haired elder was comparable with Master Lin.
“Yes, Second Palace Lord.”
Qian Renji answered softly and nodded slightly.
“So he is the Second Palace Lord? Who is he trying to imprison under the Eighteenth floor of the Earthly Fire h.e.l.l?”
Jiang Chen darted a glance at the Second Palace Lord. The latter also stared at Jiang Chen with a cold gaze at the same time.
“Get out of here.”
The Second Palace Lord looked extremely cold and powerful. The might of a Divine Emperor was sacred and inviolable. When the Second Palace Lord realized that Jiang Chen looked at him with a fearless glance, he simmered in rage.
It was merely a glance, but Jiang Chen felt like the world was falling apart. This guy was incredibly strong.
“Please calm down, Second Palace Lord. I am taking him out of here now.”
Qian Renji took Jiang Chen by the hand and brought him out of the Spectre Valley rapidly.
“Why are you getting so mad about that? It is not necessary to get angry as he is merely a Divine King disciple.”
Master Lin burst into laughter.
“I don’t like his glance. That kind of person is not just an ordinary person. Perhaps I might’ve killed him if Qian Renji did not beg for him.”
The Second Palace Lord said with a dignified look. The might of a Divine Emperor could rule over the entire world and hold the power of life and death over the humans!
Jiang Chen looked back in front of the Spectre Valley. He could see the eyes of the Second PalaceLord which was filled with killing intent.
“I will make you submit to my command one day.”
Jiang Chen said coldly.
“That’s nonsense, stop acting recklessly. The Second Palace Lord had broken through to the Divine Emperor Realm, I think no one is capable of surpa.s.sing him in a million years. Stop talking nonsense, or else you will get yourself into hot water.”
Qian Renji offered Jiang Chen well-intentioned advice. Jiang Chen knew well that the Second Palace Lord was full of killing intent but he could hardly ignore it. That kind of person tends to be driven by jealousy and envy, he could not stand any humiliation, even with just a glance.
“You’re right. Do you know what the first prize for the qualifying battle is? I will just give up if there is nothing special.”
Jiang Chen looked at Qian RenJi curiously.
“You are such a smart guy. How did you know that I know that?”
Qian Renji said smilingly. She looked elegant and charming.
“The first prize will be a king of supreme medicine which is extremely effective. Even some of us seem to covet it, but Master Lin will be the final decision maker.”
“What kind of medicine is that?”
“It is called the Purple Devil Taro, which is effective in enhancing one’s Soul Realm.”
Qian Renji answered.
Jiang Chen heaved a deep sigh. He had never thought of encountering the Purple Devil Taro in the Profound Connection Divine Palace effortlessly. It was just destined to happen. Once he obtained the Purple Devil Taro, he was confident that he would be able to refine the Nine Supreme Saint Bones Pill. However, he had no certainty of success as the Nine Supreme Saint Bones Pill was a Supreme Grade Immortal Pill and it was even close to the Divine Grade. The degree of difficulty was extremely high.
But the most important mission of Jiang Chen was to obtain the Purple Devil Taro as it was the only way to refine the Nine Supreme Saint Bones Pill.
