Chapter 741: Five Eight Nine, Heavenly Demon Attacks

A being like the Chaos Demigod, even if it has already fallen, still possesses unimaginable strength.

Jiang Chen felt that with his current cultivation level, if he really encountered the remains of the Chaos Demigod, he might not be able to match it.

In that case, roles would be reversed, the hunter would become the hunted, and that would be awkward.

Therefore, he will search for the remains of the Chaos Demigod after he becomes stronger. After all, the Nine Abysses are still there, and they aren’t going anywhere.

"Arise!"

Jiang Chen stretched out his right hand towards Han Yuan.

Boom!

All the acupuncture points in his body were trembling, an inexhaustible source of power surged forth, creating a massive palm in mid-air with his movements, grabbing the vast Han Yuan, trying to lift it.

However, the next moment, Jiang Chen awkwardly found that even with all his strength, he was still unable to make Han Yuan shake at all. It seemed as if it was anchored to the soup valley, immovable by external forces.

"Indeed, a divine ability left by Donghuang Taiyi is impressive, so that even if my strength has greatly increased, I still struggle to shake it."

Jiang Chen was quite familiar with the tactic of raising an opponent’s status to indirectly highlight his own power.

"The will of all living beings, the power of the Human Path, all into me, arise..."

After an awkward moment, Jiang Chen made his move again, this time he rallied the will of all beings and the power of the Human Path, immediately, between heaven and earth, countless torrents of golden willpower came rolling in, engulfing the vast Han Yuan.

Countless figures of gods and demons, monsters and humans of all races stood in the void, encircling the Human Path radiance, chanting loudly.

Upon careful listening, one could hear that the voices they were chanting were all the forty-eight great wishes recorded in the Great Wish Technique.

At this moment, it seemed as if countless people were simultaneously executing the Great Wish Technique, reciting the forty-eight great wishes over and over again—the enormous sounds vibrated across past, present, and future, causing heaven and earth to shudder.

Mysteriously, Jiang Chen felt that the Han Yuan in his hand had lightened by a third.

"HEAVE!"

This time, Jiang Chen let out a deep roar and with a slight effort, he lifted the immensely heavy Han Yuan.

Donghuang Taiyi may be powerful, but he is still no match for the power of all living beings. Under the support of the will of all beings, Han Yuan no longer carries its previous weight.

"Refine!"

After lifting Han Yuan, Jiang Chen didn’t hesitate, he immediately used his divine ability to infuse the incoming will of all beings into the heart of Han Yuan, urging it to transform into a divine crystal.

However, faced with the surging will of all living beings, a profound trace of Tao emerged within Han Yuan. It emitted faint rays of light and resisted the incoming will, making Han Yuan’s transformation process very slow.

"Turn, Human Path illumination!"

At this time, Jiang Chen had an idea, he did not let the will of all beings surge towards Han Yuan, instead, he manipulated the will to form vast rivers that drove the rotation of the Human Path halo.

Swipe...

As the Human Path halo rotated, brilliant Human Path illumination surged towards Han Yuan. The traces of Tao within Han Yuan might be profound, but they were no match for the Human Path illumination – each swipe left them looking more faded.

After several rounds, these traces of Tao became extremely elusive, seemingly fragile enough to shatter and disintegrate at the slightest touch.

But at this point, the will of Jiang Chen’s population was running out. Needless to say, driving such powerful Human Path illumination required a lot of willpower. In just a few moves, the willpower he had amassed over the years had been almost depleted.

Fortunately, the soup valley was located in the Eastern Sea and Cang Mountain was nearby. With Cang Mountain as a backup, Jiang Chen didn’t have to worry about running out of willpower.

"Come!"

Jiang Chen waved his robe and cast a formidable spell that shattered the void and created a void passage that led to Cang Mountain.

The next moment, an ocean-like amount of willpower surged from the other side of the passage, driving the rotation of the Human Path halo.

Swipe, swipe, swipe...

Even more splendid and powerful Human Path illumination fell down, and in an instant, the profound traces of Tao inside Han Yuan became dim, and shattered into countless light spots and disappeared.

Swipe...

The Human Path illumination fell again, and this time, wherever the Human Path illumination shone on Han Yuan, an immediate transformation began. The mysterious divine power circulated and turned into a wonderful crystal – the divine crystal.

"Keeping up with this pace, in about a hundred years, Han Yuan will be completely crystalized. By then, I can take action and open up an Ice World within this Han Yuan, elevating it to the level of a Quasi-Saint divine artifact."

A hundred years for the former Jiang Chen, who only had a lifespan of ten thousand years, was indeed a long time. But now, possessing an endless lifespan, a hundred years would pass in the blink of an eye and it meant nothing to him.

It had to be said, without the threat of lifespan, Jiang Chen’s attitude had changed, he no longer felt the urgency he had before and everything seemed unhurried.

If it were before, even if it took a hundred years, Jiang Chen would try every possible means to shorten this time, aiming to see the results in the shortest possible time.

"Ancestor God, the Heavenly Demon is attacking, hurry back..."

Suddenly, from the Realm of Nothingness in the Eastern Sea, Shangwu, who had been transformed by Jiang Chen, suddenly sent him a message, causing a drastic change in his expression.

"Heavenly Demon attacking?"

"Why would an expert of the Heavenly Demon clan suddenly come to the Eastern Sea? Could it be that they have discovered the changes in the Eastern Sea? But how could that be possible..."

Shangwu’s sudden message completely disrupted Jiang Chen’s plans. He had assumed that his strategies in the Eastern Sea were flawless and would not be discovered by the Heavenly Demons, and he could slowly accumulate resources and eventually crown himself king.

But never had he imagined that his plans would be discerned by a high-ranking member of the Heavenly Demon clan.

Initially, Jiang Chen thought there had been a mistake on Shangwu’s end, otherwise, how could his perfect plan be seen through by the Heavenly Demons?

But after a second thought, Jiang Chen realized that no one else was to blame for this situation – it was probably his own fault. His operations in the Eastern Sea were indeed elaborate, but they were based on the assumption that the Eastern Sea would remain peaceful and undisturbed.

Yet now, he had created such a spectacle in the Eastern Sea. First, he released the original source of the Eastern King who had been suppressed by Donghuang Taiyi, then caused the long-dormant soup valley to fully revive.

These events, each one bigger than the last, had attracted the eyes of all the mighty beings in the Three Realms. The Heavenly Demon clan also had their own experts and naturally, they wouldn’t miss out on such significant changes in the Eastern Sea.

Some of the mighty beings of the Demonic Way might even have plans to corrupt the original source of the Eastern King.

Therefore, most of the strong practitioners of the Demonic Way had turned their attention towards the Eastern Sea, to see if there were any opportunities for them to exploit.

One glance was all it took to spell trouble. No matter how sophisticated Jiang Chen’s arrangements were, how could they possibly fool these powerful practitioners of the Demonic Way? Naturally, they saw through it easily.
