I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 576-1: The scapegoat should take the blame, The old man in the mysterious jade seal (1)

After hearing Jiang Chen’s words, the several ancient beings present looked at each other. Some thoughts flashed across their eyes, but they did not directly agree. This place was extremely dangerous, and they actually didn’t really trust Jiang Chen.

What if he messed with it and harmed everyone?

No matter what time it was, they couldn’t be too wary of people.

“Since Jiang Chen has the means, this old man will trust you once, okay? As long as you can help my family rescue our Ancestor, you can place any condition you want.”

At this time, several Ancestors of the Ji family stepped forward and added, with very serious faces. On the way here, they already knew Jiang Chen’s methods, and they were quite at ease about it.

Now that the road was just ahead, and their Ancestor would be rescued soon, they naturally agreed immediately regardless of the consequences.

“I hope you will keep your word.” Jiang Chen nodded with a calm and authentic expression.

He had a thorough understanding of the Ancestors from the Ji family. This was a group of old guys who were stalking him. They didn’t look at their good promise now, if they didn’t need him, they would definitely kick him to death. So Jiang Chen also had a detailed plan in mind, and he would not let everyone present play him.

Seeing that several Ancestors of the Ji family had agreed, the ancient existences of Heavenly Emperor Mountain and Ancient Ye Clan also nodded in agreement.

Afterward, a sneer suddenly crossed the corner of Jiang Chen’s mouth as he looked at Gu Changge behind him and said, “Young master Changge is so powerful, and his strength is unfathomable, even the Enlightened being is no match for you. I think that if the Young Master Changge helps, the chance of success in rescuing the Ancestor of the Ji family will be much greater. I wonder what Young Master Changge’s idea is?”

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed slightly, and they looked at Jiang Chen in shock. Unexpectedly, he planned to ask Gu Changge to help him at this time. How brave was this?

A few Enlightened beings were not enough, he even wanted to pull down Gu Changge.

Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chu Yue’s expressions changed slightly, they were worried in their hearts, afraid that Gu Changge would slap Jiang Chen to death at this time.

“Oh, since there is something this Gu can help with, then Gu will not hesitate to help.” Gu Changge withdrew his gaze from looking at Mount Kun and smiled lightly when he heard the words. He was not as angry as everyone thought, appearing to be an understanding.

Jiang Chen snorted coldly in his heart, he couldn’t understand Gu Changge’s calm expression. It was as if everything was under his control.

“You will feel better and regret it later.” He sneered in his heart, but there was still no abnormality on the surface.

Then, after investigating, he began his explanation to several ancient beings on how to avoid encountering the dragon’s breath. Everyone listened very carefully, for fear of missing a word, fearing that it would lead to a life-and-death crisis.

Soon, several Enlightened beings obeyed Jiang Chen’s words and unleashed their respective Enlightenment artifacts before hitting a certain place ahead. Amidst a rumbling sound, the sun rose to the sky as if a true dragon had rolled under the feet of everyone, making the surrounding mountains tremble.

“Let’s go.” Jiang Chen looked at the intersection with a crack and said in a deep voice  as he walked in the front first.

Seeing this, everyone did not dare to stay any longer and followed him one after another, not daring to stay too far away.

“This guy is already on the verge of death, and he is still trying to figure out how to plot against me.” Gu Changge shook his head lightly, staring at Jiang Chen with a strange look in his eyes.

He knew Jiang Chen’s plan, but Jiang Chen still needed to find Ji Sheng Chu’s location for him, so he was not in a hurry to make a move. After walking for tens of miles, there was no danger at all, but a strange fragrance suddenly filled the air.

“What is this smell? Why is it so fragrant?” A young Supreme from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain asked, displaying a look of surprise.

“It’s probably because some natural treasures are about to mature.” An old man’s face was fixed, he looked around, and also showed a surprised expression.

As soon as they heard about the treasures of heaven and earth, everyone here became a little fiery and began to look around. Even a few Enlightened beings couldn’t help but inform their clansmen with their spiritual thoughts that they shouldn’t miss the treasures of heaven and earth.

Finally, in a cold pool before them emitted an extremely strong fragrance. What surprised everyone was that wisps of dragon energy hovered around the cold pool. There were also many strange kinds of spiritual plants growing in the pool’s border, spraying out lavender brilliance, each bearing a fruit.

“This is an Earth Dragon fruit. It is said that it can grow only after being nourished by dragon energy. It only matures once every 30 million years. There are actually nine fruits here,” An ancient existence said with surprise on his face, recognizing these strange fruits.

It was said that the Earth Dragon fruit contained a touch of true dragon energy, which could even help the transformation of creatures with dragon blood, and its value was indescribable.

“For this reason, let’s divide the forces together.” Right then, the ancient existence from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain spoke out, trying to pick it.

But just when he was about to get close to that cold pool, a terrifying cold air suddenly gushed out and submerged him in an instant. Such a scene alarmed everyone, causing many young supreme beings to retreat together, not daring to approach.

An extremely ferocious phoenix poked its head out of the pool, its eyes were scarlet with a bloodthirsty look. It opened its mouth, and a vast, chaotic cold air rushed towards everyone.

“The Cold Dragon at the level of the Enlightened being that has existed for thousands of years…” An ancestor from the Ji family gasped, looking extremely shocked. He hurriedly unleashed his own Enlightenment artifact, trying to resist.

The rest of the Enlightened beings also took action one after another, trying to suppress them. But this cold jellyfish had already been born with spiritual wisdom. Seeing that there were so many strong people, it let out an unwilling roar and then turned into a stream of light, which went straight to the deeper part of Mount Kun and disappeared in an instant.

“It’s smart, otherwise the body of the Cold Dragon at the level of the Enlightened being is full of treasures.” Many Enlightened beings shook their heads with some regret and then began to pick those dragon fruits.

Gu Changge didn’t do anything and obtained two fruits. To be honest, it didn’t do much for him. He looked in the direction where it fled, feeling a little thoughtful. Since living beings at the level of Enlightened beings could survive here, didn’t that mean that there might be other living beings?

In this way, it gave him inspiration that maybe he could create an accident of Mount Kun’s riot. Following the next few days, everyone continued to rush to the depths. They could hear the strange dull sound coming from the depths more and more clearly.

It was as if an ancient heart was beating. But until now, no one had sensed the location of the Ancestor of the Ji family, and they hadn’t even heard the slightest movement. This made everyone from the Ji family start to wonder whether the summoning voice that Ji Chu Yue heard back then was real or fake.

Or maybe the Ancestor of the Ji family had exhausted his life, and it was difficult to spread any news.

“What is that?”

At the end, within the depths of the mountain, everyone was shocked when they saw a strange place exuding a radiant light. It looked like a vast waterfall hanging down from the sky, and it looked like a big hole like a divine well, leading directly to the depths of the ground.

It seemed to be connected to the legendary Nine Netherlands. But at the entrance of the cave, there was a piece of deep blue jade sealed as if it had existed for thousands of years.

Within that piece of profound jade, everyone could vaguely see a figure sitting cross-legged in it. It was a man, dressed in feathers and a star crown, meditating with his eyes closed. He seemed so lifelike, but no one knew how many years he had existed.

Even though they were separated by the mysterious jade seal, everyone could still feel the extraordinariness of this man, it was a kind of aura of Dao. It seemed that he had merged with the world, making it difficult to judge his life or death.

“Could it be that the strength of this Enlightened being has surpassed the Realm of a Daoist and reached the Immortal Realm?”

Many Enlightened beings opened their mouths in shock, and looked at the person carefully. Feeling the aura coming from it, made people tremble and shudder. This was definitely an indescribable peerless powerhouse, who was sealed here for some reason.

“Brother Jiang, can we only get in by breaking through the jade seal in front of us?”

No one dared to act rashly to smash this piece of profound jade, so they could only ask Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was also very puzzled, he was talking with Creation Immortal Boat Artifact Spirit, and wanted to know how to pass. It was completely beyond his expectation that such a piece of jade seal would block the way.

And at this time, he didn’t know if it was the illusion of everyone but they always felt that the Enlightened being in the jade seal was looking at them. Even if the man was meditating with his eyes closed, they always felt that there were eyes on them.

“Don’t touch him…” Just when everyone was hesitating and unable to judge, a weak and ethereal voice suddenly came from under the waterfall directly in front of them.
