Chapter 954: 706 Ruined Land’s End, Supreme Treasure

The hide scroll was enormous, after all, the legacy of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou was too vast. If the hide scroll were not large enough, how could it have recorded all he learned in his lifetime?

Regrettably, although the contents on the hide scroll were abundant, Jiang Chen could only see a fraction of it. Most of the content was blurred, obscured by the power of time.

The part of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou’s legacy that Jiang Chen could see was only related to the Immortal Slaying Swords. The hide scroll by his side resonated with the remnants of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou’s mark, allowing it to cross the river of time and space, projecting the inheritance of the Immortal Slaying Swords clearly before his eyes.

Although curious about other inheritances, Jiang Chen also knew that, for the moment, completing the Immortal Slaying Swords’ inheritance was most important for him.

Thus, he immersed himself wholeheartedly in the ancient scenery around him, staring unblinkingly at Demon Ancestor Luo Hou’s brush strokes, witnessing the formation of the Immortal Slaying Swords’ inheritance with his own eyes.

Time slowly passed, and after an unknown period, the scene beside Jiang Chen suddenly shattered, dissipating into smoke and dust in an instant. Then, Jiang Chen came back to his senses, his face showing a look of lingering yearning.

The inheritance of the Immortal Slaying Swords was indeed profound, arguably the most essential legacy of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, whose implications had already transcended this world and were related to the Chaos Demigods. Observing this part of the inheritance provided great enlightenment to Jiang Chen.

"In this case, I am confident that I can recreate the complete Immortal Slaying Sword Formation," he said.

Jiang Chen was very excited; this opportunity was important for him, having replenished the Immortal Slaying Swords’ inheritance, he felt assured that he could reforge this treasure. In other words, as long as he had enough materials, he could reforge a set of Immortal Slaying Swords.

Creak...

Suddenly, the demon palace where Jiang Chen was began to shake, small cracks appearing on its surface, which then rapidly expanded, soon covering the entire palace.

Before Jiang Chen could react, a thunderous boom sounded, and the demon palace collapsed into countless fragments. However, before these pieces even hit the ground, they turned into dust and disappeared.

In just a moment, the supreme Divine Palace of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had vanished completely from the world. Perhaps, after countless years, with the resurgence of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, this palace might reappear in the world.

"What a pity," he sighed.

Jiang Chen knew what had happened. Earlier, when he had recreated the past, he had drained the last of the demon palace’s power. Now without that final support, the palace naturally dissipated into nothingness.

Upon leaving Sumeru Mountain, Jiang Chen stood in the Ruined Land, summoning his Tao Mirror, and gently shone it upon the mountain. A multitude of radiant lights burst forth, and he collected Sumeru Mountain right away.

With the best treasure in hand, Jiang Chen had no need to waste time here. As for the other treasures on the mountain, he could take his time searching for them after leaving this place.

...

After that, Jiang Chen’s luck seemed to run out; walking for a long time in the depths of the Ruined Land, he didn’t encounter any more treasures. However, he did not lose heart and continued forward, moving toward the end of the Ruined Land.

There might be no treasures nearby, but there must be some at the end of the Ruined Land.

"Hmm? What is that...?"

All of a sudden, Jiang Chen’s pupils shrank, and his face filled with shock as he stared ahead.

Tens of thousands of miles away from him, boundless Chaos Qi surged like a flowing lake, emitting an aura that could destroy everything.

This was a lake, a body of water composed entirely of Chaos Qi, but this was not what shocked Jiang Chen. What stunned him was something in the Chaos Lake.

It was a gigantic arm, so immeasurably vast that it seemed to have broken the bounds of greatness, giving a sense of infinite magnitude. This arm, half submerged in the Chaos Lake, with the other half exposed, looked like a Great Ancient divine mountain from a distance, even larger than the stars; Chaos Qi circulated around it. Just one glance, and Jiang Chen felt an endless oppression, trembling in spirit.

The arm of the Chaos Demigod! Without a doubt, this was an arm of the Chaos Demigod, and at the same time, it was the most precious treasure in the Ruined Land, so precious that even if one searched the Prehistoric World, hardly any treasures could be found that were more valuable than this one.

Just this segment of the arm alone was worth more than an Innate Supreme Treasure. If refined into a pill, one could obtain the Chaos Origin Pill, which could help a Great Divine Transcendent break through to the realm of a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial.

If forged into a magic treasure, it could become an Innate Supreme Treasure!

This was a defiant transformation against the heavens!

Shaken at heart, Jiang Chen subconsciously lifted his feet, walking towards the Chaos Lake.

However, he had only covered half the distance when the five-colored brilliance on Jiang Chen’s body suddenly flickered intensely. He abruptly stopped walking and looked at the Five Elements charm in his hand, feeling it vibrating as if it were enduring an extremely terrifying pressure.

After a moment of thought, Jiang Chen took a few more steps forward. The five-colored brilliance on his body suddenly dimmed as a terrifying pressure came crashing down, making his body instantly feel heavy.

"Am I reaching my limit?"

As powerful as the Five Elements charm was, it had a limit. Its limit was to bring Jiang Chen here, a place very close to the end of the Ruined Land.

The Chaos Lake ahead was the very end of the Ruined Land, yet Jiang Chen could not approach it. His level was too low; if he were a Great Divine Transcendent, then with the aid of the Five Elements charm in his hand, he might be able to reach that place, but now, he could not.

"Just a little further!"

Approaching the limit was not the same as reaching it. Jiang Chen, bracing against the pressure, walked another distance forward.

Boom!

At that moment, the Five Elements charm burst forth suddenly with a blazing five-colored radiance. It firmly rooted Jiang Chen’s steps in place, preventing him from taking another step forward.

He had truly reached the limit. Worried that Jiang Chen would continue forward into unknown danger, the Five Elements charm spontaneously revived to stop his advance.

Jiang Chen knew that the Five Elements charm had reached its limit as well because the powerful suction force that had disappeared since he activated the charm was now back again, pulling at him incessantly, trying to drag him into the end of the Ruined Land.

Had it not been for the protection of the Five Elements charm, at this moment, he would have been sucked into the end of the Ruined Land and erased by the Chaos Qi.

"Have I reached the limit?"

"But I’m not willing to give up!"

Jiang Chen really was not willing to give up; he was now very close to the Chaos Lake, just a hundred yards away.

A hundred yards, a distance Jiang Chen could easily cover in a single step in normal times, but now, that simple step was impossible for him to take.

Upon glancing at the treasure within the Chaos Lake, Jiang Chen felt even less willing to give up. Earlier, when he was farther away, he couldn’t see it clearly and only noticed a huge arm, but now, as he was closer, the true scene within the Chaos Lake also came into view.

At the center of the Chaos Lake, directly behind the arm, there was an island, no, it should be called a mountain—Mount Buzhou!

No wonder Jiang Chen could not find any fragments of Mount Buzhou; it turned out all the fragments were at the end of the Ruined Land, inside the Chaos Lake.

ps: The Ruined Land storyline is nearing its end, I’ll smooth out the following plot.
