Chapter 869: 670 Opportunity

"Emperor Lord speaks the truth!" Jiang Chen spoke ambiguously, yet the seasoned elder from the Jiang Family still discerned his intent and immediately refrained from saying more.

Jiang Chen was right; stabilizing the basic ground was of utmost importance at present. Compared to that, forming alliances with foreign races was secondary. Conversely, if necessary to secure the base, they could even take action against these foreign races.

On the other side, the three demons listened, drenched in cold sweat—understanding Jiang Chen’s meaning all too well. At the moment, they were secretly relieved that they hadn’t attacked the Human Race in the distant past.

Otherwise, they might have been Jiang Chen’s targets for attack today.

"Within Dongsheng Divine Continent, I’ve already slain all the top experts of the Demon Immortal lineage. The rest are mere ants, not worth my effort."

"It just so happens that I can leave them to the Demon Suppression Heavenly Soldiers for training purposes. Previously, the Gouchen Demon Soldiers had shown their might, but now, it’s time for the Demon Suppression Heavenly Soldiers to take action."

Jiang Chen smiled, using his Divine Thought to sense that the remaining Demon Immortals, even the strongest among them, were merely at the level of the Distant Ancient Daluo, and couldn’t withstand the Demon Suppression Heavenly Soldiers at all. Therefore, he decided not to take action himself and to leave these Demon Immortals to the Demon Suppression Heavenly Soldiers.

A military trained for a thousand days is used for a moment. Having maintained the Demon Suppression Heavenly Soldiers for so long, it was time for them to be blooded. How could they grow rapidly without regularly battling experts?

"We still need the two seniors and three Taoist friends to take some care and keep an eye on these Demon Immortals, lest they escape from Dongsheng Divine Continent."

Worried that the Demon Immortals might take the chance to flee after he decided against acting personally, Jiang Chen addressed the five people beside him.

"That is only natural!"

The five people nodded and agreed.

In fact, even without the five people monitoring them, the group of Demon Immortals wouldn’t be able to escape from Dongsheng Divine Continent. After all, outside of Dongsheng Divine Continent, countless Quasi-Saint experts from innumerable races were firmly watching. Should they dare to escape, their fate would be even more miserable than falling into Jiang Chen’s hands.

"Then I’ll trouble the two seniors and three friends for this. I have an insight that requires me to leave this place for a while, farewell!"

Seeing that the five had agreed, Jiang Chen hastily bade them farewell and headed towards the Sea of Space.

Just then, he had suddenly had an epiphany; within the boundless Sea of Space, it seemed that some opportunity was waiting for him.

As a great Merit Holder, Jiang Chen was extremely sensitive to opportunity. Since he had a premonition, it meant that there definitely was some fortune in the Sea of Space.

With the issue of the Demon Immortals settled for now, and Jiang Chen having time to spare, there was no reason to let go of the chance he had discovered. Thus, he hurriedly said farewell to everyone and left.

...

"Opportunity, what could it be?"

In the Sea of Space, Jiang Chen followed his intuition to hasten his pace, wondering about the nature of the opportunity.

The so-called Sea of Space is an immense expanse of void, not naturally formed, but rather a rupture of the Prehistoric World when it shattered, space torn apart by destructive forces and infinitely stretched, resulting in the creation of the Sea of Space.

In the Distant Ancient Era, when the Sea of Space first formed, it was not very big. However, the eruption of the Enshrinement Calamity in Ancient Times once again shattered Heaven and Earth, affecting the Sea of Space, which extended once more, assuming its current vast and endless form, where no end is in sight.

This place, much like the far reaches of the Eastern Sea, serves as a passage to the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds. By crossing the vast Sea of Space, one can reach the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

"This space is indeed strange."

While on the move, Jiang Chen perceived the condition of the Sea of Space, gradually showing signs of interest.

Jiang Chen discovered that the deeper he went, the thinner and flatter the space became—it was as if a three-dimensional space was being stretched into a sheet of paper, all matter annihilating in the process, converging into Nothingness.

Also, this made the void here extremely fragile, seemingly as if a mere breath from a mortal could puncture it.

It’s not an exaggeration; such is the reality here: the space is as delicate as paper, shattering upon touch.

"This place is unusual; without the guidance of an Innate Dao Sovereign or the protection of an Innate Spiritual Treasure, ordinary Cultivators would find it difficult to traverse it."

Space was extended too far; even an Innate Dao Monarch coming here would be affected, their bodies stretched longer and longer, from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, and then gradually vanishing into Nothingness.

Should one attempt to resist, the void would break immediately, triggering a chain reaction and unleashing endless space storms that destroy everything, reducing it to Nothingness.

"This is a treasure land for comprehending the Tao of Space; if I were to meditate here for a while, I could elevate the Tao of Space to a very high realm."

Jiang Chen felt some admiration; extending space from three dimensions to a plane, stretching it infinitely, was beyond his capability. Comprehending it could undoubtedly deepen his understanding of the Tao of Space.

However, he didn’t have the time to meditate here now, which was quite regrettable.

Shaking his head, Jiang Chen continued forward, and before he knew it, he reached the depths of the Sea of Space, where the void had entirely turned into Nothingness, devoid of any matter.

Any being less powerful than the Innate Dao Sovereign reaching this point would be devoured by Nothingness in an instant, leaving nothing behind.

As he proceeded, the space began to contract, becoming stronger and stronger, and matter began to reemerge.
