Chapter 680: Thousands of Changes
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When entering the Desolate Forbidden Land, the two people were extrely
nervous, but fortunately, they wouldn’t necessarily die in there.
It was just everyone knew it was dangerous, and over ti, no one had the
nerve to approach it anymore.
However, in fact, as they went deep, they didn’t see anything special about it,
except the light was too dazzling.
Jiang Chen was right there, not very far away. It seed they could catch up
with him imdiately.
“Stop. Stop now!”
Jiang Chi shrieked.
“What’s wrong?”
Frowning at her, Jiang Yao didn’t know what had happened, but when he
looked over, he tumbled to why Jiang Chi had asked him to stop.
He saw Jiang Chi’s soft smooth hair was drying up and turning white from hair
root.
Sothing occurred to Jiang Yao. And he touched his own hair. The sa
thing was happening to him.
They were losing their vigor and vitality in here!
“Retreat, now!”
They had to leave the ancient sword behind. For the mont, their only goal
was to survive.
Fortunately, they hadn’t gone too deep. Since they left in ti, the changes in
them were recovering slowly.
“The Desolate Forbidden Land is really horrible.”
“That Jiang Chen is so annoying. He would rather die than give us the ancient
sword,” Jiang Yao cursed in anger.
Jiang Yu might get angry, Jiang Chi thought helplessly.
She was right. When they had brought this news back, Jiang Yu kept staring
at them.
“If Jiang Yao had gone alone, I wouldn’t be surprised that it would have ended
up this way, but Jiang Chi, how could you allow this to happen?” he said, quite
puzzled.
“He didn’t give any chance. He entered the Desolate Forbidden Land very
decisively,” Jiang Chi said helplessly.
Observing the two carefully, Jiang Yu made sure they weren’t acting in
collusion to cheat him. Then he shook his head helplessly.
“This kind of people is the scariest. No one will be able to stop him if he
makes up his mind to take revenge,” Jiang Yu said.
Recalling what Jiang Chen had said, the two sohow felt a little uneasy.
“Even we almost couldn’t leave there. Not to ntion him. He dashed into
there like a crazy man. He must be dead now.”
“Whatever. Tell the elders about what happened when we go back. Let’s see
whether they’d like to take risk for the Ancient Sword’s sake.”
...
There was a reason that the Desolate Forbidden Land was called a forbidden
land for living creatures. It was grotesque in there. There was no sun, and
even the land had disappeared.
Flying there, Jiang Chen felt awful.
To offset the influences of the Desolate Forbidden Land, he kept lightning
flashing and thunders rumbling around him, and tried his best to make his
divine body function.
However, even though he was trying so hard, his body was still heavily
wrecked, but he hadn’t realized it himself.
Jiang Chen sotis felt extrely cold, as cold as ice. When he had
reached the limit of coldness, he started to feel warm instead, as if he was
bathing in hot milk.
Soon, he realized this was the illusion that people frozen to death could have
before their death. He struggled to activate the genuine blood of celestial
phoenix. The crisis was finally resolved for the mont.
He thought the two disciples of the Jiangs must have left, so he started to look
for the exit.
However, it didn’t take long for him to realize he couldn’t even find the sa
way he had gone in. He couldn’t even orientate, as if he had lost on a sea.
He felt he was closer to death than last ti when he fell from height.
“Why didn’t you just stay in the Realm of Nine Heavens? It’s not good enough
for you? As long as you beco a great Venerable, you’ll be the lord of the
world, and the whole Realm of Nine Heavens will be yours.”
He heard one and another unreal voices. These voices reminded him of no
one, but he felt them very familiar.
“You strive to climb up, but what for? You keep running into people who look
down on you, try to crack you down or even kill you every ti you arrive in a
new world.”
“Can’t you just stop for a break? You got great achievents in the Realm of
True Force. You could have stayed there. Why did you have to co here to
court death?”
The voices put Jiang Chen dizzy. He wanted to puke, but couldn’t puke
anything.
“Break. I need a break.”
He lost consciousness gradually as the vision got more and more blurred. He
started to stumble like a drunkard.
He was moving up and down at first, but in the end, he started to fall.
He didn’t know how much ti had passed when his back had hit onto so
solid thing.
He made an effort to open his eyes and found himself in a mountain.
Outside the mountain, he could still see the illusory images of the Desolate
Forbidden Land. Overhead were so bizarre lights. This mountain was the
only place where he felt safe.
“He is great. Thanks to the divine body and the holy pulse, he has managed
to survive in the Desolate Forbidden Land!”
He heard a voice when he was wondering what had happened.
He thought it was his illusion again, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a
black-clothed man standing not far away. He couldn’t see the man’s face,
since the latter had his back to him.
“Senior, where am I?” Jiang Chen asked.
“The Desolate Forbidden Land is dangerous, but it has so relatively safe
places, too. You found here on your own.”
“But you won’t be able to leave here anymore.”
The black-clothed man said to him. Jiang Chen found the voice familiar, as if
he had heard it sowhere before.
However, he was too perplexed to recall whose voice it was.
He hurried to check his body, and felt relieved when he had found he hadn’t
got any severe injuries.
“You thought working on your martial arts techniques could make you one of
the best among those in the sa state as you. However, now you’ve found
as long as one’s state is higher, martial arts techniques aren’t important
anymore. You feel frustrated, don’t you?” the black-clothed man said.
It was their first encounter, but the black-clothed man seed to know Jiang
Chen very well. He knew a lot about Jiang Chen.
“Exactly. Senior, what do you think? Is this right or wrong?” Jiang Chen said.
“You are not wrong. It’s the world that has gone wrong.”
His answer evoked an odd feeling in Jiang Chen. He felt there was sothing
wrong, but he had to admit he felt quite relieved.
If he took the long view, he would surely gain higher achievents than
Young Master Blood Moon in the near future.
“Besides, who told you Spiritual Venerables couldn’t be a match for Celestial
Venerables?”
“Are you only using a holy thod like the Nine Clouds Divine Lightning
Formula to work on the core of thunder in you?”
Jiang Chen couldn’t sit still anymore. He walked towards the black-clothed
man.
“Senior, who on earth are you? Why do you know so many things about ?”
“You want to know who I am?”
He turned around, so Jiang Chen didn’t have to walk over to see his face.
It was a face beyond Jiang Chen’s imagination.
It was himself!
It was him in a black robe.
The black-clothed man and he were looking at each other, as if he was
looking at himself in the mirror.
All of a sudden, it dawned on Jiang Chen what had happened.
Right at this mont, the black-clothed man turned into a black smoke,
vanishing in the world.
The black-clothed man was his devil inside. He had never existed. Jiang Chen
had been talking to himself, recounting the sense of unfairness and his
puzzles.
Fortunately, he realized it in ti. By then he had identified himself.
It was at the sa ti that the mountain disappeared. He started to float in
the air. What he saw was once again the changes of the Desolate Forbidden
Land.
He was more heavily injured than he had thought. He felt a part of him had
been torn off him, like how a piece of paper was torn apart.
“Survive. I must survive.”
Jiang Chen shouted, trying his best to fly ahead.
He didn’t know how much ti had passed when he saw a giant black
shadow lurking behind a light wall ahead of him. The shadow gave him a
good scare.
However, he was pleasantly surprised when he had recognized what it was.
