Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 280

Chapter 280: The Secondary Gates Open Chapter 280: The Secondary Gates Open As the three souls fused completely, Jiang Chen quickly mastered the spatial technique shared by Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning.

However, he chose not to use it immediately to unlock the cave dwelling’s entrance.

Instead, he activated his transmission jade token to contact Liu Xiong, instructing him to intercept Gu Ran, who might be heading toward a secondary gate.

To ensure secrecy, Jiang Chen concealed his actions using the Heavenly Demon Hidden Heart Ring, keeping Wu Qian, who was nearby, completely unaware.

On Three Mountains Island, Liu Xiong was momentarily stunned when he received Jiang Chen’s message: A cave dwelling with a chance for a Transcendence-level opportunity?

And I need to stop Gu Ran from reaching a possible secondary gate?

The shock quickly gave way to excitement.

Unbelievable!

If Holy Son Jiang Chen seizes this opportunity, his path to the Transcendence realm will surely be unstoppable!

He moved stealthily toward Gu Ran’s location, staying alert and ready.

If a secondary gate appeared, Liu Xiong was fully prepared to block Gu Ran from getting through.

…

After sending instructions to Liu Xiong, Jiang Chen also transmitted a message to Ji Mingxiu.

Without delay, he stepped before the golden-red main gate.

The gate began to hum with faint spatial vibrations, its glowing surface pulsating in steady waves.

Raising both hands, Jiang Chen called out, “Vast Void Spiritual Art!” Instantly, Dao Origin Power surged wildly through his body.

Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning lent their full energy to support him.

Together, their combined strength created a shimmering light between Jiang Chen’s outstretched palms.

Within the light, a concentrated spatial force began to take shape.

The Vast Void Spiritual Art, a mysterious technique tied to the Dao of Space, was a skill that only cultivators at the Third Step could comprehend.

Yet, Jiang Chen wielded it as though it were second nature.

What!

He’s using a spatial technique!

Wu Qian was utterly shocked as he observed Jiang Chen.  Unbelievable!

Holy Son Jiang Chen has actually mastered a spatial secret art!

For a moment, Wu Qian could only stare in awe.

For someone in the Dao Palace realm to control a technique that even some Transcendence realm experts struggle with…

it’s beyond extraordinary.

Boom!

Suddenly, the spatial force within Jiang Chen’s hands exploded in intensity, surging with overwhelming power.

“Go!” Jiang Chen shouted firmly, releasing the spatial energy in his hands.

The swirling force shot forward, merging perfectly with the golden-red entrance of the cave dwelling.  In an instant, the entrance reacted like paper catching fire.

A fiery glow spread outward from the center, and in a flash, the doorway transformed into a swirling gray void.  A powerful suction force emerged from the void, causing their hair to whip wildly and their robes to flutter.  “It’s open!

Holy Son Jiang Chen, you’re incredible!” Wu Qian exclaimed, his eyes lighting up with excitement.

He had spent countless hours trying and failing to unlock this entrance, but Jiang Chen had done it with a single move.  “The passage isn’t stable yet,” Jiang Chen cautioned, his calm focus unwavering.

He stared at the gray void, watching as turbulent spatial forces swirled inside.

These forces were strong enough to tear apart anyone below the Dao Palace realm in seconds.

He understood that this instability was caused by the ancient mechanism of the cave dwelling, which was still opening its secondary gates.

Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s transmission jade token buzzed.

Using his divine sense, he checked the message from Liu Xiong: “Holy Son!

A strong spatial fluctuation is emerging on Three Mountains Island!” “Stop Gu Ran!” Jiang Chen responded immediately, his divine sense transmitting the directive.

But before he could relax, the main gate of the cave dwelling stabilized, expanding into a massive gray vortex.  Another message from Liu Xiong flashed on Jiang Chen’s transmission jade token: “I will certainly…

Oh no!

The spatial secondary gate has appeared at…” The message cut off abruptly.  What?

It appeared where?

Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered with surprise.

Could it have materialized right above Gu Ran?

His heart sank.

Is this another twist from Heavenly Fate?

With a sigh, he steadied his thoughts.

Stopping Gu Ran might not be possible now, but at least Liu Xiong is there to keep an eye on him.

I just hope Liu Xiong doesn’t end up as fodder.

“Holy Son Jiang Chen!

The entrance is now stable.

Shall we go in?” Wu Qian asked eagerly, his voice full of anticipation.

Jiang Chen gave a small nod.

“Let’s proceed.

Enter.” With a light step, he rose into the air and glided smoothly into the gray vortex.

Wu Qian, his face glowing with excitement, quickly followed behind him.

…

At the same time, secondary gates to the cave dwelling began appearing in different regions of the Immortal Martial Continent.

One gate emerged right above Gu Ran’s head in the Lustrous Yang Domain, pulling him inside without warning.

Other gates appeared across the four major domains: the Everflowing Truth Domain, the Vibrant Blaze Domain, the Ninth Heaven Domain, and the Wind Gold Domain.

Unexpectedly, the secondary gate in the Everflowing Truth Domain appeared near the Purple Heaven Holy Land.

When Ji Mingxiu received Jiang Chen’s message, he had already mobilized his operatives to monitor various areas within the domain.

Yet, he hadn’t anticipated that a gate would appear so close to his own territory.

It’s here!

Ji Mingxiu thought, astonished.

A Cave Heaven with potential Transcendence-level opportunities, right on our doorstep!

He couldn’t help but marvel.

How did Jiang Chen discover such a massive opportunity?

His fortune is truly extraordinary!

Though he felt an overwhelming urge to explore the gate immediately, Ji Mingxiu restrained himself.

Instead, he called for an urgent meeting of the Purple Heaven Holy Land’s high-ranking members.

Within moments, Supreme Elders and other senior figures gathered, their faces filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Ji Mingxiu stood before them and announced, “As you’ve all seen, a spatial passage has appeared just outside our Holy Land.” “This is the Cave Heaven Secret Realm, discovered and activated by Holy Son Jiang Chen,” he continued, his voice steady yet charged with excitement.

“This realm could hold opportunities to ascend to the Transcendence realm!” The Purple Heaven Grand Hall buzzed with energy, and one Dao Comprehension-realm Elder couldn’t hold back.

“Holy Son Jiang Chen is truly our destined savior!” he exclaimed.

“In these challenging times-when the Immortal Martial Continent is plagued by demonic invasions and chaos-Jiang Chen has brought us a beacon of hope,” another Elder added, his tone filled with reverence.

“Indeed, this is monumental news,” another Elder said, his expression sincere.

“I don’t seek this opportunity for myself.

As long as it helps Holy Son Jiang Chen grow stronger, that’s enough for me.” The Purple Heaven Grand Hall was electric with optimism, and for the first time in a long while, the cultivators of the Purple Heaven Holy Land felt as if the Immortal Martial Continent’s future had gained a spark of hope.
