Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2170: Chapter 2214: Encountering the Big Black Dog

The immense disturbance also attracted the attention of all the sages in Heavenly Mechanism City.

Waves of sage’s power resounded in various places of the vast city.

Jiang Fan also utilized the Heart of Ten Thousand Earths to teleport.

Yet, just as he was about to reach, an invisible array power bounced him away.

Even underground, there are defensive arrays?

Jiang Fan drilled out from underground, only to find himself at a gigantic black array, covering the vast earth for thousands of miles.

He tried to peer inside, but his vision was completely blocked.

With a thought, he teleported above the array, attempting to inspect the gap blasted open by the fiery beam.

However, the gap was also repaired.

”It’s really well-hidden!” A mumbling voice unexpectedly came from nearby.

Turning to look, it was a sage who had rushed over.

An array of translucent sage figures appeared around the formation.

They watched the black array with expressions of surprise.

Clearly, they were all startled by the terrifying scarlet beam from earlier.

”Damn it, what treasure has Martial Vault dug up from underground this time?”

A mumbling sound reached Jiang Fan’s ears.

He couldn’t help but pause.

This voice...

Turning to look, he was taken aback!

A three-eyed big black dog was digging the earth in front of the array, trying to get inside.

On the big black dog’s back sat a young girl in white, her eyes shining as she stared at the black array.

”Go, Big Black Dog, go!”

Behind them stood a stunning mature beauty, her presence towering over others.

She too was dressed in white, her robe fluttering, exuding an extraordinary aura.

The two beauties in white were both flawless.

One was playful and quirky, the other was aloof and proud.

Their temperaments were markedly different.

They were none other than Princess Yu Yan and Princess Yu Mian of the Fox Demon Clan from the Netherworld.

Jiang Fan was stunned for quite a while.

Could it be that the Big Black Dog didn’t die from a strike by the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis?

And why were the two princesses also here at Martial Vault?

Reflecting carefully, it suddenly came to mind.

The Snow Maiden once said she would send Princess Yu Yan to the Black Abyss Realm, firstly because Princess Yu Yan had matters to attend to, and secondly to remind the Black Abyss Realm to be wary of the Asura Saint Son.

Why did they detour to Martial Vault?

Regardless, this is a good thing!

His body was currently weak, and the Big Black Dog had voluntarily returned to protect its master.

What a loyal dog it was.

As if sensing his gaze, the Big Black Dog abruptly stopped digging, turned its head towards Jiang Fan.

Realizing it was just an old man, it couldn’t help but murmur, ”Why does this feel a bit familiar?”

Jiang Fan chuckled silently.

He was currently using the disguise mask of the Quasi-Realm Artifact, not even someone in the Three Calamities Realm could see through it.

Yet, the Big Black Dog vaguely sensed something.

Yu Mian turned her head to look, her bright eyes inspecting him from head to toe: ”Just an old man, isn’t it?”

”Could it be you didn’t wipe in the latrine, and this useless dog smelled something?”

Jiang Fan’s eyes widened.

This brat, how long has she spent with the Big Black Dog?

Even she’s become this filthy!

The Big Black Dog snorted, ”Am I that kind of dog?”

”I just feel that this old man has a bit of Jiang Fan’s scent.”

Oh?

Yu Mian perked up, jumped off the Big Black Dog, and stood not too close or too far in front of Jiang Fan, saying, ”Do you know my uncle?”

Jiang Fan smiled, ”Who is your uncle?”

Yu Mian said, ”His name is Jiang Fan, the famous Champion Marquis, surely you’ve heard of him.”

The Big Black Dog also walked over, sniffing repeatedly, ”Old man, do you perhaps have something of Jiang Fan’s on you?”

Jiang Fan glanced around, then took out the Life Pocket from his waist.

The Big Black Dog immediately recognized it, squinting its three dog eyes, ”This is the pocket Jiang Fan used to store his poison body! Why is it in your hands?”

Hearing this, even Yu Yan walked over.

Her cold and deep eyes stared at Jiang Fan as she subtly moved to his flank.

The three formed a semi-circle around him.

Clearly, they regarded him as someone with a grudge against Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan chuckled and hoarsely said, ”There’s been a misunderstanding, everyone.”

”This is the deposit Jiang Fan gave me.”

Deposit?

The Big Black Dog’s three eyes rolled around, rubbing its two dog legs, ”Old man, what happened to Jiang Fan?”

Its mind flashed with images of all of Jiang Fan’s treasures.

What Tai Chu Prison Sky Gourd, what Execution Pen, what Bronze Hall... so many... its dog brain could hardly contain them all.

Jiang Fan feigned caution, ”You are his...”

The Big Black Dog’s face turned solemn, ”I am his ever-loyal black dog, please quickly tell me how my master is doing.”

Jiang Fan stroked his beard, sighed, ”He is gravely injured, doesn’t have much time left, alas.”

Hearing this, Yu Mian’s pretty face turned pale, exclaiming, ”My uncle is seriously injured? Where is he?”

Even Yu Yan was slightly stunned.

The last time they saw Jiang Fan, he was the one who turned the tide and saved the Netherworld Divine Tree.

Such a powerful person, now severely injured and on the brink of death.

Her ruby lips moved slightly, her cold countenance softened a bit as she bowed, ”I apologize for the offense earlier, we humbly request the old gentleman to take us to see Jiang Dao You.”

The Big Black Dog nodded repeatedly, saying, ”Yes, yes, I need to inherit his legacy... oh oh, guard him till the end!”

Jiang Fan observed their reactions.

Yu Mian was not surprising.

Yu Yan, however, was not entirely the aloof and unlikable person she seemed before.

As for the Big Black Dog...

Find an opportunity, grill him with ginger and cumin.

Jiang Fan smiled, ”No need to worry, everyone, Little Friend Jiang is still holding on, and I came out to find pills for his healing.”

”However, I’m only in the Divinity Transformation Realm, my knowledge is limited.”

”Since you are his kin, why not help provide some advice?”

Yu Yan took over, gently asking, ”May I inquire about Jiang Dao You’s current injuries?”

Jiang Fan said, ”His body and soul are both wounded by laws, unable to heal.”

Yu Yan frowned, thinking deeply for a moment.

”Physical injuries from laws are easier to handle; Saint’s Blood, some Seventh Grade Great Pills, and sages’ own power of laws can all work, though the speed varies.”

”But injuries to the soul from laws are troublesome, often only extremely rare Supreme Treasures of Heaven and Earth, or seldom-seen Seventh Grade Great Pills can help.”

Jiang Fan nodded silently, similar to what he knew.

Once formed, injuries from laws are exceedingly difficult to heal.

He had Demon Race Holy Blood, Asura Holy Blood, and Angel Holy Blood, but not a single drop of Human Clan’s Holy Blood.

It’s impossible to quickly recover with Holy Blood alone.

Moreover, he had no laws of his own, making it impossible to slowly erode them away.

So, he could only seek out Seventh Grade Great Pills.

The soul aspect was even more challenging. So far, the only things he had seen that could heal a sage’s soul were the Bodhi Tree and the Five-Colored Purification Bottle from the Poisonous World.

Therefore, he still needed to find Seventh Grade Great Pills.

Ultimately, he must strive to obtain the Great Pills.

Jiang Fan said, ”In the worlds of all heavens, which Seventh Grade Great Pills are usually used to heal both types of injuries?”

Yu Yan frowned, ”For healing the body’s Seventh Grade Great Pill, I can think of a way to get one from Martial Vault.”

”But for the soul, I’m afraid none of us can do anything.”

Jiang Fan frowned, ”Is it too expensive?”

Yu Yan shook her head, ”No, it’s that it’s no longer available on the market.”

”The Nanqian State is recruiting troops, stirring, with the universe overshadowed by the threat of war, everyone is on edge, preparing for that day.”

”Who would sell the rare items needed to heal soul injuries?”

Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed.

The Nanqian State is recruiting troops?

No wonder Jian Sankuang appeared near Central Earth, his destination must have been Nanqian State, right?
