Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 2293: Chapter 2340: Shocking the Heavens

"Intercept someone?"

Bone Struggle Sage’s brain stalled for half a breath. The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, who had slaughtered billions of lives and hunted down countless giant figures of heaven and earth, was currently being hunted down? And he was even asking them, mere passersby, for help?

"Speak!" the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis shouted deeply.

Bone Struggle Sage snapped out of his daze. Without a second thought, he bowed and said excitedly, "If the Blood Marquis commands, we will not hesitate to go through fire and water! Please rest assured, Blood Marquis!"

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis said, "In half a year, come to the Sin Realm. This Marquis will kill a person for you." Then, he flapped his blood-red wings and departed via Instantaneous Movement.

The few experts of the Two Calamities Realm and One Calamity Realm who had followed Bone Struggle Sage were ecstatic.

"A promise to kill from the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis is worth more than a mountain of gold!"

"Senior Bone Struggle, you’ve stumbled upon a great fortune!"

Bone Struggle Sage’s expression changed drastically. "Shut up!" he shouted in a low voice. "Are you all drunk? Can’t you tell the difference between a great fortune and a Death Sentence? Do you really think we can stop someone capable of hunting down the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis?"

Recalling the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s severed arms, Bone Struggle Sage felt his hair stand on end. He couldn’t fathom who in the myriad worlds could hunt the Blood Marquis down to such a state. The others finally realized the truth. The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis wasn’t making a deal with them at all; he was clearly using them as scapegoats.

Bone Struggle Sage waved his sleeve, scattering a cloud of white bone powder that enveloped their group. Their figures gradually faded, entering a transparent state as his voice transmitted into everyone’s ears.

"We’ll just watch and admire the grace of this peerless supreme being! No one is allowed to make a move! Do not leak even a trace of hostility! If anyone attracts that almighty expert’s attention, I will kill them myself!"

The group was both nervous and excited. They were dying to know exactly what kind of existence could hunt the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis into such a miserable state.

Bone Struggle Sage continued, "I wonder if the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis has slaughtered that kid Jiang Fan yet. He sure knows how to run. To think he could flee all the way from Nanqian back to Central Earth. Such a feat will definitely make him famous across the myriad worlds."

The several Sages accompanying him nodded slightly. Jiang Fan was facing one of the most illustrious Gods of Killing in all the heavens. Even experts of the Three Calamities Realm couldn’t withstand a single encounter with him, yet Jiang Fan had actually managed to escape back to Central Earth. In the past ten thousand years, he was probably the first to do so!

SWISH.

Suddenly, an unimaginably massive paper crane traversed the Void, flashing past them and leaving behind endless afterimages. However, as a Three Calamities Realm expert, Bone Struggle Sage could still clearly capture the scene atop the paper crane. The figure of a young man with black hair and black clothes, wielding a battle axe and standing on the crane’s head with a face full of frosty intent, was clearly etched into his mind.

The awe that had just surfaced on his face instantly froze. His throat felt as if it were tightly gripped by a Ghost Hand, leaving his mouth hanging wide open without a single word coming out. That was... That was Jiang Fan! It was Jiang Fan who was hunting down the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis! He was that peerless supreme being?

"Senior Bone Struggle, did you see who that senior expert was?" an expert of the Two Calamities Realm, who had only caught a glimpse of a blurry figure, asked excitedly.

Bone Struggle Sage shuddered, every hair on his body standing on end. He had actually been trying to hunt down Jiang Fan? He shook his head and said, "N-no, I didn’t! Let’s go, we’re returning to Nanqian. No one is allowed to mention that we were ever here, and absolutely no one is to mention that we hunted Jiang Fan! Otherwise, I will destroy you!"

Bone Struggle Sage was thoroughly terrified.

Meanwhile, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis galloped madly along the way. Half a day later, his vitality and blood had been severely depleted, yet the Sin Realm was still nowhere in sight. Behind him, Jiang Fan bit onto his tail, refusing to let go.

Fortunately, a small-scale world appeared ahead. This world possessed a soaring Cloud Sea and beautiful mountains and rivers. During the once-in-a-millennium invasion of Dark Creatures, it had actually remained completely unscathed! Hope gleamed in the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s eyes as he leaped into it.

In the Dustless Realm’s Heavenly Immortal Palace.

A man and a woman sat facing each other inside the Immortal Palace. The woman was elegant with a tranquil aura, her bare, jade-like feet as exquisitely crafted as sculptures.

"Qingling Dao You truly has an extraordinary background. You even managed to obtain the supreme treasure of the Divine Capital Imperial Palace, the dragon bed of the Monarch of the Daqian Divine Kingdom." The person opposite her was a Three Calamities Realm Demon Venerable of the Wolf Clan, exuding a fierce and vicious aura. His vicious eyes flashed as he spoke meaningfully.

Qingling Great Sage held her teacup and said unhurriedly, "If Mad Wolf Sage’s injuries have healed, please leave at your convenience. The transaction between us has ended."

In front of her lay a Space Storage Device containing a portion of a World Embryo. After being severely injured by Qiqi, Mad Wolf Sage had not hesitated to use a portion of the Black Abyss Realm’s World Embryo to borrow the dragon bed from the Dustless Realm. This bed had indescribable healing properties. In just one month, it had completely repaired his injuries. This stirred up a trace of greed in Mad Wolf Sage’s heart. He wondered if a measly little Dustless Realm could really guard a myriad worlds’ supreme treasure like the dragon bed.

Mad Wolf Sage’s eyes glinted. He stood up and laughed heartily, "Alright, I won’t disturb you any longer."

At this moment, the world barrier of the Dustless Realm burst open with a boom. The armless Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis stepped into the Dustless Realm and shouted, "I am requisitioning your realm’s World Embryo!"

If there was anything left that could block that terrifying battle axe, it could only be a realm’s World Embryo. If he could hide inside it, he might be able to escape this calamity.

Qingling Great Sage’s pretty face changed slightly as she gasped, "The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis?" A trace of fear flashed through her beautiful eyes. No matter who it was, anyone who suddenly encountered this terrifying eternal God of Killing would find it hard to remain calm.

However, she wondered who was currently hunting him down. If she lent him the Dustless Realm’s World Embryo, wouldn’t she be drawing fire to herself? But if she refused, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis would unleash a massacre right here and now.

While she was hesitating, Mad Wolf Sage’s eyes filled with excitement. "Mad Wolf of the Black Abyss Realm is willing to serve the Blood Marquis!"

What kind of existence was the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis? Normally, he didn’t even have the qualifications to approach him. Providing timely help now would, firstly, earn him a precious friendship with the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, and secondly, provide an opportunity to redeem the Black Abyss Realm’s Three Calamities Realm expert who had been caught and sold to the Sin Realm by Qiqi. Who would refuse such a deal?

He immediately brought out a bubbling spring eye oozing with blood. "This is our Black Abyss Realm’s World Embryo, the Infinite Blood Spring. I wonder if it will be of use to you, Blood Marquis?"

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis swept his gaze over it and immediately saw the spring eye’s extraordinary nature. This spring eye had a chance of blocking the battle axe. He leaped forward, flashed in front of the spring eye, and said to Mad Wolf Sage, "This Marquis will remember you."

Then, he prepared to dive into it. But right at that moment, a paper crane forcefully broke into the Dustless Realm.

Before anyone could react, Jiang Fan, standing on the paper crane, raised his battle axe and swung a world-shattering Sky Opening strike aimed straight at the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis.

The latter’s eyelids twitched madly. Unable to hide in the spring eye in time, he could only reluctantly give it up. Instead, he shattered the world barrier beneath his feet and narrowly escaped the Dustless Realm.

The world-shattering Sky Opening strike slammed into the Blood Spring, slashing a shocking gash across it. A massive amount of bloody water poured out from within.

Mad Wolf Sage roared in heartache, but the next moment, his entire body went cold. Because Jiang Fan’s battle axe was raised once more.

And this time, it was aimed at him!
