Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1901: Chapter 1944: His Majesty

Amidst the humming sound, the massive pirate battleship swiftly set sail, but didn’t completely leave.

It maintained a certain distance, observing, waiting for Jiang Fan to be smashed, to come back and pick up things from Jiang Fan’s body.

How could Jiang Fan dare to hesitate?

He decisively activated the bronze ladder in front of him.

Strands of Power of Laws surged from the bronze ladder, transforming it from palm-sized to three zhang high.

At the end of the ladder was a void black hole.

Jiang Fan hurriedly climbed up, drilled into it, and before his body disappeared, hooked the ladder with his toe and dragged it inside.

Then the space black hole disappeared.

Jiang Fan had already instantaneously moved to a rather distant place, at least he couldn’t see the blood light of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis behind him.

"Senior, the rest is up to you."

The Nine Nether Demon Venerable appeared, took over the bronze ladder, and revealed a hint of a smile:

"With this ladder, our safe return to Central Earth should not be a problem."

On the battleship.

Butterfly Fairy stood with her hands behind her back, sensing with closed eyes: "He has already used up his chance to escape."

"Prepare to follow, wait for him to be taken by the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis..."

"Wait a moment!"

Butterfly Fairy suddenly sensed something, and abruptly opened her eyes: "How can he use it a second time?"

"That’s not right, a third time, a fourth time..."

"This damned bastard, how can he continuously use my bronze ladder?"

A sage with a scar on his forehead froze slightly: "Young lady, will you still be able to retrieve this ladder?"

Butterfly Fairy’s heart bled; this was a treasure she had struggled to snatch in the past, and now it’s like a meat bun thrown to a dog!

She roared angrily: "Chase, chase him for me!"

"Even to the ends of the earth, you must chase him down!"

But just then.

A surge of strong clear light suddenly emerged from the pirate battleship, and a vague phantom gathered in mid-air.

Butterfly Fairy and the four sages’ expressions changed, and they hurriedly knelt down.

"Greetings, leader!"

It turned out to be the leader of the Dead Sound Pirates, who manifested a projection through the battleship.

"Suspend all trials, all Dead Sound Pirates, execute another mission with full force."

Ninth Master’s trial suspended?

Everyone was astonished, what mission could be so important that such a grand operation is forcibly suspended?

And also, it startled the leader to personally make an announcement to everyone.

The leader’s shadow shattered and re-gathered into a painting, depicting the image of a handsome young man in the painting.

"His Majesty Nanqian disappeared, a reward has been offered across the Hundred Realms of All Heavens, find and return him to Nanqian, and a Saint’s Opportunity will be rewarded!"

"From today, Dead Sound Pirates put full effort into tracing His Majesty Nanqian’s whereabouts, without error!"

Then, the painting broke apart.

Butterfly Fairy and the four sages were shocked at the scene, unable to speak for a long time.

"Saint’s Opportunity?" Butterfly Fairy swallowed, unable to imagine what such an opportunity could be.

The three sages also sighed repeatedly, but only the sage with the scar on his forehead stared at the dissipating painting, with an expression of pondering:

"Don’t you think His Majesty Nanqian and Jiang Yitian look a bit alike?"

Eh?

All three sages froze, even Butterfly Fairy’s gaze became odd.

Butterfly Fairy: "No kidding, they really do look alike."

"Except for the eyes being quite different, they do look similar in various aspects, especially the facial features."

"But he shouldn’t be His Majesty Nanqian, right?"

The sage with the scar shook his head: "That’s unlikely, His Majesty Nanqian has been famous in the Virtuous Realm for years, Jiang Yitian is only at the Divinity Transformation Realm."

"It should just be a resemblance."

"It’s just, looking like His Majesty Nanqian is really quite a coincidence."

Butterfly Fairy stood up, looked in the direction where Jiang Fan escaped, and clenched her fists:

"First let this dog live, find His Majesty Nanqian, then I’ll deal with him!"

"I won’t swallow this loss quietly!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

On the other side.

The Nine Nether Demon Venerable continuously activated the bronze ladder, rapidly instantaneously moving towards Central Earth.

"At this rate, a half-day journey can be reached in one two-hour period." The Nine Nether Demon Venerable estimated.

"Provided this bronze ladder can withstand it."

He looked down at the bronze ladder in his hand, slightly frowning.

After tens of uses, the bronze ladder had evidently begun to crack, ultimately only a top-grade Spiritual Artifact, it couldn’t endure Power of Laws like a Quasi-Realm Artifact for too long.

It’s unknown how much longer it can last.

Jiang Fan also noticed the anomaly of the bronze ladder, and said seriously: "What junk does Butterfly Fairy use?"

"She can’t bear to give it to me!"

Realizing relying solely on this ladder might not enable him to escape, he decisively took out the set of Quasi-Realm Artifact Wang Chongxiao had obtained from the Heavenly Realm.

One white Array Stone, along with six black Array Stones.

Wang Chongxiao had said, this array is both attack and defense.

Attack is to control the six black Array Stones with the white Array Stone, paralyzing the enemy’s soul with its Array Power.

The Heavenly Human Five Declines caught off guard would be struck instantly.

This ability Wang Chongxiao had already demonstrated.

Then what about the defense?

When all six Array Stones are activated, even the arrays that trap Saint Realm can be melted, so the defense couldn’t be that poor, right?

Thinking of this, he hurried to start refining.

Two quarters later.

Jiang Fan slowly opened his eyes, revealing a look of surprise.

"Turns out this complete set of Quasi-Realm Artifact has eighteen black Array Stones."

"It’s claimed to be the strongest defensive Quasi-Realm Artifact from the Heavenly Realm back in the days!"

He showed a regretful look in his eyes, Wang Chongxiao only took out six black Array Stones, the remaining twelve, who knows whether they were lost or in his Space Storage Device.

If all were obtained, he probably wouldn’t fear a strike from the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

Just wondering how the complete set of array stacks up against the Immortal King’s Undying Bell.

Thinking of the Immortal King’s Undying Bell, Jiang Fan felt heartache, it was eventually destroyed by the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’ spearman, shattered into pieces.

Although Jiang Fan collected all, thinking to repair it seems unlikely.

Crack!

Suddenly, a crisp sound came, the bronze ladder ultimately couldn’t hold up and burst on the spot, unable to be used anymore.

Jiang Fan’s eyebrows lightly furrowed, saying: "How much longer can senior’s speed take to return to Central Earth?"

"Two two-hour periods." The Nine Nether Demon Venerable said, he continued:

"We have already put sufficient distance, even the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis cannot easily catch up."

"Barring any accidents, we should return safely to Central Earth."

Jiang Fan’s heart was still anxious.

Returning to Central Earth, is it truly safe?

The scene of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis piercing through Central Earth with a single strike was vivid in his mind, how would escaping back to Central Earth help?

As long as the blood seal on his forehead remains, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis can still lock onto him across worlds, delivering an annihilating strike.

Could it be, he must forever hide beside the nine Great Wine Sacrifice, relying on them to fend off this strike?

With anxiety.

One two-hour period later.

Approaching Central Earth, in the dark void suddenly flickered a cluster of stars and seven suns.

Familiar Barbaric Wilderness aura swept over with the void turbulence, becoming a familiar presence for Central Earth’s beings.

Ancient Giants!

A Giant Emperor led a group of Giant Kings rampaging through the void ahead.

Moreover, that Giant Emperor was the Seven-Day Giant Emperor!

Are they Ancient Giants from the Southern Heavenly Realm?

What is their reason for treading into the void?

Surely, they’re not heading towards him?
