Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse

Chapter 155: Convergence Flower

Banished Immortal Peak.

It had been two months since Jiang Chen stepped into the quasi-Saint realm.

As time passed, the entire Nine Heavens Realm was abuzz with discussions talking about Jiang Chen.

The reason for this was simply because Jiang Chen’s breakthrough caused such a massive stir, creating an unprecedented event.

Before him, no one had ever triggered a Heavenly Tribulation when breaking through to the quasi-Saint realm, but Jiang Chen did.

Because of this, he was hailed as the greatest prodigy in history. Some might refute this, but the Heavenly Tribulation was an irrefutable proof.

The Heavenly Tribulation was the greatest testament, the heavens’ way of giving a certificate of supreme value.

Even if someone wanted to bring up the God Son of the True Dragon Clan, they would be silenced by the Heavenly Tribulation and there would be no room for rebuttal.

However, the external commotion had nothing to do with Jiang Chen. Since his breakthrough, he had once again fallen into a state of idle rest.

The entire Banished Immortal Peak also followed Jiang Chen’s state, returning to tranquility. It was as if they were isolated from the world.

Suddenly, the Holy Master of the Primordial Holy Land and the Great Elder emerged from the void.

The Great Elder looked at Jiang Chen with a peculiar expression and said, “Holy Son, just as you predicted, news of the Convergence Flower has come from the Southern Region!”

“I believe the Taiching Dao Sect has already set off for the Southern Region!” The Great Elder’s eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief.

This was because Jiang Chen had mentioned it to him in advance. That was why he was so astonished. He couldn’t understand how Jiang Chen had foreseen this.

“It’s finally here!” Jiang Chen slowly got up, sat on the chair, and said calmly, “According to the plan, Great Elder, you should go to the Southern Region.”

“But this time, there may be some variables. It’s best to strike quickly and not drag it out for too long! If you can kill, then kill. Don’t waste time talking with the enemy!”

“Do not let the people of the Demon Sect capture Zi Qingyan!”

The Convergence Flower is an extremely special heavenly material and earthly treasure. No matter who consumes it, it can enhance their comprehension.

But it is most suitable for the innate Dao body. If refined, the innate Dao body’s comprehension will reach unimaginable heights. Comprehending Dao laws, any secret technique would be grasped at a glance!

In terms of comprehension, it is the strongest.

Because of this, Zi Qingyan has been targeted. Her powerful comprehension made the Demon Emperor desperate to obtain it.

Because if he could acquire this comprehension, it would greatly benefit his cultivation and allow him to decipher formations.

The Great Emperor’s killing array is incomparably powerful and being the array of an ancient emperor, it is almost impossible for anyone to crack it.

Even the Demon Emperor, who is of the same emperor level, cannot do it. Moreover, the Demon Emperor’s comprehension is not particularly outstanding among the emperors.

After researching for a long time without any breakthroughs, he is desperate for stronger comprehension. Although his comprehension is not much among the emperors, it is unparalleled for other beings.

Therefore, he does not value the comprehension of other beings. Only the comprehension of an innate Dao body refined with the Convergence Flower would move the Demon Emperor.

Because of the emergence of Zi Qingyan from the Supreme Palace, her innate Dao body was exposed, catching the Demon Emperor’s attention.

He planned to use the news of the Convergence Flower to attract Zi Qingyan, capture her, and have her refine the Convergence Flower, ultimately using secret techniques to completely devour her physique.

The Demon Emperor’s plan is quite good. Normally, Zi Qingyan would fall into a trap and be completely refined.

However, this is a novel, and such ancient tropes of heroes saving beauties are never lacking, which led to the protagonist Du Guyun’s appearance and the complete failure of the Demon Emperor’s plan.

In the original story, Cang Lao had already fully recovered, his physical body and soul completely restored to their peak state.

With Cang Lao’s assistance, Du Guyun naturally became the hero saving the beauty. Along with the Supreme Hall’s performance and companionship along the way, the two naturally fell in love.

However, Zi Qingyan is an extremely ethereal woman. Although she had feelings, they were not obvious until later when she completely fell for Du Guyun in some plot developments.

Because Cang Lao had been missing for many years, no one knew about the relationship between Du Guyun and Cang Lao, making it impossible for the Heavenly Demons to find out who the culprit was.

Coupled with Du Guxiong’s deliberate concealment, Du Guyun enjoyed a carefree period. If not for Du Guxiong’s existence, Du Guyun might have died long ago. The Demon Emperor would have exhausted all efforts to kill Du Guyun.

Jiang Chen intervened not for anything else but to prevent the Demon Emperor from achieving his goal. If the Demon Emperor obtained perfect comprehension, it wouldn’t be long before the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain was completely unsealed.

By that time, without the presence of emperors to guard the Nine Heavens Realm, the entire realm would fall.

Jiang Chen didn’t want to see this.

Of course, he had a backup plan. Devouring Dao Fruit was his greatest trump card, but unless absolutely necessary, Jiang Chen would not easily reveal this card.

“Yes! I understand!” The Great Elder nodded, sensing Jiang Chen’s seriousness.

Moreover, Jiang Chen had mentioned that this matter concerned the unsealing of the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain.

If they failed, the unsealing of the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain would be accelerated, and he definitely didn’t want to see that happen.

“One more thing!” The Great Elder glanced sideways and said softly, “We have received news that the Heavenly Domain organization has revived!”

“It is likely targeting you! You might not know about the Heavenly Domain organization!”

Jiang Chen interrupted, “Great Elder, you don’t need to say more. I understand the Heavenly Domain organization!”

“The revival of the Heavenly Domain was indeed unexpected, but it’s just a small organization, nothing to worry about!”

“Moreover, its revival is actually a good thing for us! I will deal with the Heavenly Domain organization later, but for now, there’s no need to rush!”

The appearance of the Heavenly Domain organization didn’t surprise Jiang Chen.

It was a tool of the Demon Emperor. Now that his reputation had spread, threatening the Demon Emperor, he would naturally deploy this tool.

Seeing this, the Great Elder said no more and disappeared into the void.

Almost simultaneously.

The surrounding void fluctuated slightly, and Dongfang Mingyue’s expression changed. A vast divine power erupted, “Jianxue, calm down!”

Hum.

Mu Jianxue emerged from the void, her usual calm demeanor gone, replaced by a boiling killing intent that spread, enveloping the entire Primordial Holy Land, making countless disciples tremble.
