Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1371: Chapter 1387: Ancient Token Activated

Half a day later.

Jiang Fan detoured around the route the Bodhisattva took, winding his way towards the continent.

At this moment, under the healing effects of the Revitalizing Pill, all his injuries had recovered.

The severed right arm had also regrown.

The only downside was that, due to taking a detour, he was still some distance from the continent.

But as long as nothing unexpected happened, arriving safely on the continent would not be a problem.

滴滴!

At this moment.

Something on his body made a sound.

At first, he thought it was the Moon Realm.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was a simple, pale-yellow Token, placed at the deepest part of the Space Storage Device.

On the Token, the words ”Ancient” were inscribed.

Jiang Fan was taken aback; he had almost forgotten about the Token’s existence.

This was the reward he received for coming first in the Heavenly Ascending Ancient Road.

Later, a Demon Mirage in the Divinity Transformation Realm tried to snatch the Token from him.

He managed to deceive it with a handful of Memory Silver Sand.

Then, during his breakthrough, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis wanted to cross realms to kill him precisely because he held the Ancient Token.

Since then, he had not paid attention to the Token.

To his surprise.

The Ancient Token unexpectedly began to show unusual movements.

Fixing his gaze, the Ancient Token flashed with a slight pale-yellow light, as if it was signifying something.

Jiang Fan frowned and said, ”What does this mean?”

”Does it mean the Ancient Wilderness Hunting is about to begin?”

He recalled what the Red-faced Elder in the Fire Worship Sect’s underground palace had said.

Once, in Central Earth, there was a chance to change fate through the Ancient Token.

Unfortunately, it was missed.

Now he thinks the real fate-changing opportunity should be the Ancient Wilderness Hunting, right?

But what exactly is the Ancient Wilderness Hunting?

Why can it change the fate of Central Earth?

What fate is being changed?

He rubbed his forehead with some annoyance: ”Can’t these old folks just speak clearly in one go?”

”They insist on making people guess with difficulty!”

Shifting his gaze, Jiang Fan took out the Moon Realm.

In such matters, he could ask Red Sleeves, and that deeply knowledgeable Flowers in Bloom.

He immediately used the Hell Language to ask questions in the Moon Realm.

”A Good Name: Red Sleeves, the Great Hunt has started, is your village alright?”

After a moment, a reply came from the Moon Realm.

”Glasses: Thanks for the belated concern.”

She sarcastically mocked Jiang Fan.

The Great Hunt had started a whole day, and only now did Jiang Fan remember to ask about her.

Jiang Fan detected the sarcasm and replied in a huff.

”A Good Name: I’ve been chased and screaming for my life, how do I have time to worry about you?”

”Glasses: Who’s chasing you?”

”A Good Name: A Two-star Giant King and a Human Clan Great Cultivator in the Heavenly Human Three Declines.”

”Glasses: You’re really lucky to be alive, but what’s a Two-star Giant King doing in Central Earth?”

Red Sleeves, sharp as ever, immediately pinpointed the crux of the problem.

”A Good Name: I also want to know how he got down here.”

”Glasses: His descent to the lower realm is very problematic, it’s best to capture him for interrogation.”

”A Good Name: No chance, already killed.”

”Glasses: You killed him?”

If a powerhouse from Taicang State took action, they would definitely try to capture the Two-star Giant King, not kill him.

So, Red Sleeves boldly guessed it was Jiang Fan who killed him.

”A Good Name: Yes.”

”Glasses: You... really are surprising.”

Despite having guessed, hearing it confirmed by Jiang Fan still shocked her deeply.

She knew how troublesome a Two-star Giant King was.

Even the combined strength of the Four Transformation Gods and One Bodhisattva from Taicang State might not kill him.

Yet Jiang Fan slaughtered him!

How did he do it?

Soon, Red Sleeves realized another problem.

”Glasses: And what about that Human Clan Great Cultivator in the Heavenly Human Three Declines?”

”A Good Name: Killed as well.”

”Glasses: ???”

If killing the Two-star Giant King astonished her, then killing the Heavenly Human Three Declines left her beyond imagination.

How exactly was this done?

”Flowers in Bloom: A Good Name, what is your cultivation really? Last time you were fighting the Red Demon Venerable in the Heavenly Realm and now you’ve slain a Two-star Giant King and a Heavenly Human Three Declines Cultivator.”

Flowers in Bloom, who hadn’t intended to join the conversation, was so startled that he couldn’t help but chime in with a question.

”A Good Name: Just a lowly Cultivator, let’s not talk about this, I want to ask you two something.”

”Glasses: I knew you wouldn’t climb to the Temple of Three Treasures without a reason! Speak!”

”A Good Name: Have you heard of the Ancient Token?”

”Glasses: Saw it in a book, only described in one sentence—defying the heavens to change fate, creating fortune for all beings, why do you ask? Do you have it?”

Jiang Fan was startled; Red Sleeves, this woman, had a frighteningly keen mind.

She could always capture the key from inadvertent information.

However, Red Sleeves’ words did provide evidence for the words of the Red-faced Elder and the Divinity Transformation Venerable at the end of the Heavenly Ascending Ancient Road.

The Ancient Token indeed holds an opportunity to alter fate.

”Flowers in Bloom: The Ancient Token, yes, I know a bit. Heard that someone in Taicang State obtained an Ancient Token.”

”Glasses: Taicang State?”

Apparently, Red Sleeves had already guessed that the Ancient Token was in Jiang Fan’s possession.

She too was curious about what exactly the Ancient Token was.

”Flowers in Bloom: According to ancient records, the holder of the Ancient Token can participate in Ancient Wilderness Hunting, which hides an opportunity to change the fate of a realm, said to be determined by rankings.”

”Flowers in Bloom: Three thousand years ago, someone in Taicang State obtained an Ancient Token. It’s said that because he participated in the Ancient Wilderness Hunting, Central Earth was spared from an ancient giant’s descent.”

What?

Jiang Fan’s heart raced.

He recalled a conversation with Ji Qingxuan once.

Ji Qingxuan had said she found records of ancient giant descents while going through historical books.

Every thousand years, an ancient giant would descend.

Except for once, three thousand and one thousand years ago, there was an empty slot.

At that time, neither of them understood why the ancient giants, who descended precisely every thousand years, were absent that time.

It turns out, it was due to the Ancient Token sparing Central Earth from a millennium calamity!

”Glasses: If I understand correctly, the Ancient Wilderness Hunting can influence the actions of ancient giants?”

”Flowers in Bloom: That’s right.

”Glasses: The ancient giants only take orders from the few Giant Emperors who stand shoulder to shoulder with Boundary Masters, why would a hunt influence them? Could the Ancient Wilderness Hunting be hosted by them?”

”Flowers in Bloom: That’s unknown, the origins of ancient giants are inherently mysterious, and the Heavenly Ascending Ancient Road is also filled with riddles. The relationship between the two is vague in the histories, probably only the Great Sage or even Ancient Saints would know.

Jiang Fan was deeply shocked.

Looking at the Ancient Token in his hand, his face was full of surprise.

No wonder those great figures repeatedly instructed him that this Token could change the fate of Central Earth.

If Ancient Wilderness Hunting could grant Central Earth a millennium respite, then in the next ancient giant descent, Central Earth would undoubtedly be stronger.

”Flowers in Bloom: I heard that this time a little guy got the Ancient Token, it’ll be hard for him to get a good ranking in the Ancient Wilderness Hunting. If I have time, I’ll go meet him and ask for the Ancient Token.”

”Glasses: Don’t!
