Blinded by Greed and Obsessed with Infinite Desire

“Did the Peach Blossom Formation collapse? It’s really destroyed.”

Every cloud has a silver lining. Yu Er’niang shed tears of delight. The Peach Blossom Spring was not an illusion anymore, but was now a garden that was filled with the beauty of spring. The Peach Blossoms were all in full bloom, relaxing and relieving.

“Jiang Chen, you’re amazing! Hahaha.”

Yu Huafan was bursting with joy as he had never expected that Jiang Chen could really make it. Jiang Chen was their life savior. He turned things around again and again, and made them get back their determination and faith. Even though their desire and obsession was fatal in the Peach Blossom Formation, it was their determination of winning after getting out of it.

Yu Er’niang had never thought that he would be able to complete the impossible task in that critical moment. No one had thought that Jiang Chen could make them feel alive again after they were struck in despair. He was the one who gave them a new life and with a new glimmer of hope.

Yu Er’niang could hardly express her grat.i.tude and appreciation to Jiang Chen at this moment.

“We are in trouble now. It is true that Jiang Chen destroyed the Peach Blossom Formation, but he not only saved the few of us.”

Yu Jingfan whispered while his face was rigid and serious. They were surrounded by countless strong experts which made them feel startled and frightened. Even an old man who had lived for more than ten thousand years was there. Followed by the collapse of the Peach Blossom Formation, those humans and beasts who had been trapped here previously were all released and felt relieved. At this moment, Wu Dong Luo Xia Mountain was like a place full of wild demons and monsters.

“These guys should not be treated lightly, even some of them are Half-step Divine Kings experts. Some of them are probably trapped here since the last maturation of the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. Look at the bones around us, those humans and beasts who had been trapped for ten thousand years are mostly dead. Who can achieve immortality in the Heavenly G.o.d Realm? Those who are still alive were the Half-step Divine Kings that are all on death’s door.”

Jiang Chen sighed heavily.

Some of them were blinded by greed and obsessed with infinite desire. They only had eyes for the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart, however, they were unable to find the way out of the formation. That was the reason they had been trapped here for thousands of years, unable to escape. If they could not make their way out of the Peach Blossom Formation, they would have their bones buried here and they’d fade away completely. None of them could resist the wear and tear of time, and would all die eventually. Everything changes over the years, even making them eternal and immortal.

However, it was true that Jiang Chen had broken through the rules of the Peach Blossom Formation and released countless humans and beasts. In other words, Jiang Chen had made them his opponents. And all of them would never be grateful to Jiang Chen as all they wanted the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart.

All of these were out of Jiang Chen’s expectation but it was just too late for regret now. However, it was his only way to save Yu Er’niang and the others. He had no other choice but to do it.

“It seems like we have gained more opponents now. I thought the battle wouldn’t be intense but it seems like we’re wrong.”

Xue Liang said lightly. The Peach Blossom Spring had become a sea of happiness and the people here ran wildly, wis.h.i.+ng to escape from the death cage that had trapped them for more than thousands of years.

“Let’s just play it by ear.”

A wry smile spread over Jiang Chen’s face. This was not what he had expected but it was no use crying over spilt milk. They could only hope that they could stand out and win in this battle. Unfortunately, the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart could not be obtained easily. Those who wanted to get it kept increasing but there was only one Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart, for the one who truly deserved it.

“The Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart is thousands of miles away from Wu Dong Luo Xia Mountain. However, its location kept on changing so it was not easy to get it. We have to fight with our all to find the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. Even though we may not defeat all of them, we could still beat them to it by staying a step ahead.”

Yu Jingfan said in a low voice. After years of studying, he knew the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart well like the back of his hand. But this was not the major factor to determine the victory. Only the strongest one could obtain it.

“There were less than five of them that had reached the Half-step Divine King Realm, more than ten of them were peak Heavenly G.o.d Realm experts while thousands of them were at the Heavenly G.o.d Realm. Some of the humans and beasts were trapped in the formation for over thousands of years and no one knew who they were and where they’re from. It means that this will be a fierce battle and all of them are enemies now.”

Yu Jingfan went on.

“Well. Undeniably, getting the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart became more difficult. It seems like our success and failure is all in the hands of Jiang Chen.”

Yu Huafan shrugged and laughed. However, he was just joking around, he did not mean to blame Jiang Chen. After all, without Jiang Chen, they would still be trapped in the Peach Blossom Formation.

“Brother, please stop talking nonsense.”

Yu Er’niang whispered. Jiang Chen was their benefactor, she was afraid that her brother would insult Jiang Chen.

“It’s fine. I think you guys should know the way to find the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart.” Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Yu Jingfan nodded silently.

“To be honest, it is true that we know the way to find the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. After a hundred years of effort, failure will not be forgiven this time.”

Yu Jingfan looked extremely serious and his determination impressed Jiang Chen. Their desire for the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart was beyond Jiang Chen’s imagination.

“The Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart is a sacred and spiritual relic. It is really difficult to find it. However, there is a kind of Jade-faced Spiritual Fox that could sense it, which is miraculously acute. If we can find the Jade-faced Spiritual Fox in Wu Dong Luo Xia Mountain within three days, then we can definitely find the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart in advance.”

Yu Er’niang fixed her glance on Jiang Chen.

“They are looking for the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart but we’re trying to find the Jade-faced Spiritual Fox . It sounds interesting.”

Xue Liang smiled.

“Without further ado, we have to hurry and find the Jade-faced Spiritual Fox.” Jiang Chen said.

They left the Peach Blossom Spring and started looking for Jade-faced Spiritual Fox. The Jade-faced Spiritual Fox could decide their success or failure among those opponents.

Jiang Chen realized that they wouldn’t be able to find the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart easily as it was a sacred and spiritual relic, which was not any different to an elf.

……………….

There was a long shadow that came from the darkness. His eyes were extremely cold.

“Jiang Chen, it’s just amazing that you were able to break the Peach Blossom Formation. It seems like I have underestimated you. Unfortunately, those demons are going wild and you will die miserably. You have no other choice at this moment.”

The dark shadow held his fist and his eyes looked sharp. He had come prepared, showing a cold and overbearing aura.
