Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 94

Chapter 94: A Tremor in the Swamp Chapter 94: A Tremor in the Swamp When the Heavenly Star Crossing Calamity Precious Ginseng entered Jiang Chen’s stomach, its immense medicinal power flowed towards his Dantian, where the Burning World Red Lotus fully absorbed it.

Once it had taken in all the medicinal strength, the Burning World Red Lotus began to tremble gently.

Its drooping petals now showed patterns that throbbed with life.

Despite still looking a bit wilted on the whole, it was clearly rejuvenated compared to before.

The proof was undeniable; the Burning World Red Lotus had truly progressed to the Inquiring Journey realm!

With this advancement, a powerful, mysterious energy radiated from the Burning World Red Lotus, quickly spreading throughout Jiang Chen’s body and soul.

In an instant, Jiang Chen experienced a sensation of expansion throughout his body, as though every cell was striving for elevation, transforming into a superior state of being.

This was the clear indicator of an imminent breakthrough!

Deciding quickly, Jiang Chen immediately started channeling his Origin Power following the instructions of the Starry Abyss Heavenly Scripture, temporarily locking his cultivation base at the Half-step Heavenly Origin realm.

If he aimed for a breakthrough, the remarkable powers of the Ten-Turn Harmonious Spirit Pill would make it happen almost instantly!

“Great!

The Heavenly Origin realm is now just a step away!” Jiang Chen whispered, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.

Without hesitation, he extended his right hand, and a crimson flame burst forth.

Crackle!

Crackle!

The small but mighty flames danced, their power concealed.

This weapon, which Jiang Chen had never used in battle before, had grown significantly, now more than double its original strength.

If Jiang Chen chose to attack with full force, he could unleash tremendous power, matching the level of the Heavenly Origin realm.

This meant that any future encounters with Ye Fan would be significantly easier.

‘Let’s see what Ye Fan is up to now,’ Jiang Chen thought, his eyes, enhanced by his divine sense, cutting through the depths of the swamp where Ye Fan was hiding, shining with a cold scorn.

…

Ye Fan, having just finished healing his injuries, was considering his next move.

But suddenly, an unexpected tremor shook the entire swamp!

Driven by an invisible power, the exceptionally thick mud began to swirl, slowly creating a massive whirlpool!

“What on earth is going on!?

What’s happening to this swamp?” Ye Fan cried out, his face twisted in surprise.

His eyes searched everywhere but couldn’t pinpoint the reason behind the swamp’s strange behavior.

However, having survived many crises with minimal harm, he managed to stay composed in the midst of the turmoil.

…

At the same time, high above, Jiang Chen, observing this abrupt shift, had an intuition that the disturbance in the swamp was triggered by Heavenly Fate.

“Is this like those typical stories where someone falls off a cliff, finds a cave, and stumbles upon treasures?” he suspected, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

After all, the swamp had been peaceful for ages.

Why did it suddenly descend into turmoil right after Ye Fan took shelter in it?

As Jiang Chen rolled his eyes, irritated by the ridiculous fortune of the protagonist, suddenly, an aura full of majesty and tinged with an indescribable mystery quietly filled the air around him.

Paying close attention to this aura, Jiang Chen realized it was coming from deep below the ground.

‘It looks like this isn’t just any chance, but something special, similar to the mysterious giant egg,’ Jiang Chen contemplated, his eyebrows raised in surprise, his eyes shining with an indescribable look.

Ye Fan had found yet another incredible opportunity.

The rate at which these occurred was truly astonishing!

Yet, Jiang Chen also realized that this could be related to the environment surrounding Ye Fan.

The Cave Heaven Secret Realm, filled with numerous chances for fortune, was like a huge dungeon, and according to the original plot, it was where Ye Fan proved himself!

…

Right then, Ye Fan, wrapped in his glowing protective barrier, saw the mud around him quickly disappearing downward, and he felt himself being dragged down with it.

But he didn’t fight against the pull of the sinking mud.

He believed that the deeper he went underground, the better his chances were of escaping Jiang Chen’s chase.

‘I just hope the disturbance in the swamp stays low-key enough not to catch Jiang Chen’s eye,’ Ye Fan pondered quietly, just as the entire swamp transformed into a huge whirlpool, with countless bubbles appearing on the surface.

Right after that, the dark water level of the swamp dropped a bit, and then everything became still.

Underground, swept along by the relentless pull of the mud, Ye Fan was carried down into a fissure with a deep rumbling sound.

The next instant, his feet hit solid ground, the mud above stopped moving downward, while the surrounding muck kept flowing sideways.

Turns out, he was standing on a suspended stone bridge, with a passage stretching out in front of him and the inner wall of a mountain behind him.

“What is this place!?” Ye Fan wondered out loud, looking around in awe.

“Could it be some kind of ancient underground palace?” “Also, this stone bridge,” he pondered, “Just by looking at it, it’s clear it’s a relic from the Cave Heaven Secret Realm.

Maybe, there are some opportunities for me here!” With this thought, a burst of excitement surged in Ye Fan’s chest.

But then, the next moment, remembering the more than ten Monster Cores that Jiang Chen had taken, along with the mysterious giant egg, a wave of anger flared up in Ye Fan’s heart, making him involuntarily clench his fists.

“This time, I’ve made a quick and wide escape, and purely by luck, I’ve ended up here.

Jiang Chen won’t take my chance away again!” he told himself firmly, gritting his teeth.

Then, extending his divine sense as far as it could go, he moved forward across the stone bridge.

…

Above ground, Jiang Chen’s expression became serious when he realized his divine sense could no longer detect Ye Fan.

‘It seems Ye Fan has fallen into a place far below the surface,’ he figured, eager to search for Ye Fan right away.

But his cautious side stopped him from rushing in.

Knowing the risks, he understood he needed to get ready before facing any potential dangers.

Taking a deep breath to steady his slightly agitated heart, Jiang Chen started to channel his Origin Power to fully engage his protective artifact, the Carefree Heavenly Extreme Robe, that he wore.

He decided to give it his all for a while, making use of all the treasures he had gathered recently.

Moreover, Jiang Chen also dedicated part of his focus to his Dantian and the meridians flowing throughout his body, ready to activate his Starry Abyss Heavenly Scripture instantly and achieve a breakthrough to the true Heavenly Origin realm.

With everything in place, Jiang Chen exclaimed, “Let’s go!” as he maneuvered the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle, diving straight into the swamp.

Quickly, he descended to the deepest parts of the swamp until he landed on a solid stone slab.

“Hmm?

This seems like some sort of device,” Jiang Chen noted thoughtfully.

“But it doesn’t look like Ye Fan was the one who triggered it.” “It might have been set off by other disciples, probably those escaping from the three-headed monster.” After pausing to think, he chose not to immediately tamper with the device.

Instead, he looked around and found a narrow crack.

The device was engineered to open and close, moving from both ends towards the middle, leaving a very thin, narrow gap at the center.

With just a thought, Jiang Chen used the Spirit Condensation Bianstone Jade to enhance his divine sense, making it stronger before he sent it through the gap.

Instantly, the view below became visible-a stone bridge and some footprints, unmistakably Ye Fan’s doing.

Following Ye Fan’s trail with his divine sense, Jiang Chen quickly spotted Ye Fan’s figure.

He watched as Ye Fan entered a passageway, carefully making his way through the surrounding darkness.

‘I’ll let him get a bit ahead, then I’ll find a way to follow,’ Jiang Chen decided silently, waiting patiently for the right moment.
