Chapter 690: Chapter 689, Who the hell are you? I won’t indulge you_1
A yellow light burst forth from Qiaosu Huina’s hand, its speed so fast it was astonishing. Jiang Chen was not slow either, quickly using Instant Step to move away.
But Qiaosu Huina’s reaction was even faster. She appeared before Jiang Chen like a flash of light. Under the barrage of various light beams, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Dust billowed up, obscuring the ground.
Jiang Chen frowned deeply. This is the Seal of Light, the fastest God’s Seal. This woman actually possesses such a seal! Her attack speed is fast, her escape speed even faster, and her defensive power is exceptionally high. Although I have teleportation, compared to light, it still falls a little short. No one can escape something moving at the speed of light. My opponent is an Incubus, and here in the World of Dreams, her Seal of Dreams can replicate any seal.
Jiang Chen said coldly, "Enough. If you don’t back down, I won’t be polite anymore. I’ll kill every single Incubus in your World of Dreams."
"Do you even have that kind of power?" Qiaosu Huina scoffed, her expression one of utter disdain.
"Then let me show you what I’m capable of," Jiang Chen declared. "You can replicate the Seal of Light, but you can’t copy my power at all."
Jiang Chen immediately unleashed his Sword Qi—the Grand River Sword Intent.
WHOOSH...
The Grand River Sword Intent, carrying the Power of Termination and Destruction, surged towards Qiaosu Huina. She waved her hand, unleashing various rays of light to counter Jiang Chen’s Sword Qi. However, infused with the Power of Destruction and Termination, even light itself would be annihilated before his attack. Jiang Chen’s assault instantly shattered Qiaosu Huina’s light-based techniques.
Qiaosu Huina was greatly shocked. How can this be? What kind of power is this? It can even destroy light?
With a mere thought, Qiaosu Huina instantly teleported out of Jiang Chen’s AoE Attack range. "You can’t hurt me," she declared.
"You’re right about that," Jiang Chen replied. "However, you’re the only Lord here. If I can’t hurt you, surely I can hurt the remaining Incubi?"
Jiang Chen immediately changed direction and struck at the dozen or so Incubi. Qiaosu Huina was a Lord and very strong. Catching her would be extremely difficult for Jiang Chen.
But the Goddesses of Dreams were different. They were Divine beings, not Lords.
「At this moment」
The expressions of the dozen or so Goddesses of Dreams changed drastically. Facing this sudden turn of events, they were completely overwhelmed and could only attempt to flee. How could Jiang Chen give them a chance? Countless streams of Great River Sword Qi trapped the dozen figures within, all except for Loreida.
Loreida’s face changed dramatically. "Jiang Chen, let them go! I’ll take you out of here."
"Release them? Would your Lord agree to that?" Jiang Chen retorted.
Loreida looked at her Lord, pleading, "Lord, this matter has nothing to do with Jiang Chen. I believe him."
"Fine," Qiaosu Huina said. "Have him release them first."
"Release them? Impossible!" Jiang Chen scoffed. "Old woman, I’ll tell you the truth: I’m not afraid of you. I’m only sparing them for Loreida’s sake.
"Once, Loreida gave me 50,000,000 Destruction Method, which allowed me to upgrade my Realm and gave me the chance to ascend to Divine status. But now, that connection is gone.
"Don’t test my patience, or you might as well kill them yourself right now."
Release them? Such wishful thinking. He feared no one, let alone an Incubus.
Watching Jiang Chen, Qiaosu Huina felt so angry she could spit blood. He actually dared to call me an old woman? Am I that old?
Qiaosu Huina was silent for a long time before saying, "I’ll let you leave. Just release them."
Jiang Chen’s thoughts stirred, and he immediately retracted his Sword Qi. "My patience is limited. Don’t force my hand. I’ve never really cared about Incubi."
Qiaosu Huina glared coldly at Jiang Chen.
Loreida hurriedly said, "I’ll leave with you."
"Just escort me out," Jiang Chen said.
"No, I need to find the Origin Energy Orb! I must find Daphne and reclaim our world’s Origin Energy Orb!"
Jiang Chen shook his head. "It’s no use. Once you leave the World of Dreams, you won’t even have the power to protect yourself in the real world. I don’t want to be saddled with a burden. As for the Origin Energy Orb, don’t even think about it. Daphne won’t give it to you. Besides, she is now a Lord of the Defiled God Continent, where there are thirteen Lords. Even if you found it, you would face certain death."
Loreida fell silent. She had considered this. Unfortunately, the Origin Energy Orb was crucial to the very survival of the World of Dreams. She didn’t want to simply give up.
Qiaosu Huina said, "You retrieved the Origin Energy Orb last time. This time, you must help us too. That’s the only way you can clear your name."
Jiang Chen looked at Qiaosu Huina. Help you retrieve it again? Who on earth do you think you are?!
Jiang Chen laughed. "Old woman, are you going through menopause or something? Help you retrieve the Origin Energy Orb? Who do you think you are? Why should I help you?"
Qiaosu Huina erupted in fury. "What did you call me?"
"Old woman."
"You... Damn it, you truly deserve to die!"
"What, still thinking of fighting? You can’t kill me, and I can’t kill you. Don’t think you’re high and mighty just because you’re a Lord. Keep talking nonsense, and I’ll slaughter all your Incubi and destroy the World of Dreams itself." Jiang Chen shot back without holding anything back.
Qiaosu Huina clearly hadn’t recognized the current power dynamic, yet she was still thinking of getting Jiang Chen’s help. Without any benefit to him, this was impossible.
Qiaosu Huina said, "What will it take for you to help me?"
"If you want my help, you need to offer me something valuable."
"What do you need?"
"I need the Rule of Termination, or the Destiny Law would also work. Of course, besides those, ’Yuan’ energy would also be acceptable. In short, I need benefits. There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world."
Qiaosu Huina shook her head. "I don’t have any of those."
"Then there’s nothing to discuss. Your World of Dreams has nothing to do with me. If it’s destroyed, so be it; it’s bound to be destroyed sooner or later anyway. Your world has absolutely nothing to do with me."
Qiaosu Huina seethed with anger. But on reflection, it made sense; he wasn’t from the World of Dreams.
After pondering for a moment, Qiaosu Huina said, "The World of Dreams has many things. I’ll take you to see them. If there’s anything you like, you may take it."
Jiang Chen thought for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, take me to see. Let’s find out if there’s anything I need."
Jiang Chen followed Qiaosu Huina, heading into the depths of the World of Dreams.
Leaving now would be of no use anyway. It would be better to follow Qiaosu Huina and see if there are any treasures. If there are, I’ll simply take them. As for the Origin Energy Orb of the World of Dreams, I’ll retrieve it if I can. If not, there’s nothing I can do.
Jiang Chen asked, "What exactly is this Origin Energy Orb that it could make Daphne a Lord?"
Qiaosu Huina explained, "It’s the essence of a world. Only by obtaining the approval of a world’s essence can one ascend to the Sovereign Realm. You have the Power of Termination within you. All you need to do is go to the Nine Abyssal Abyss and find its Origin Energy Orb. Then, you can ascend to the Sovereign Realm."
Jiang Chen pondered. The Origin Energy Orb of the Nine Abyssal Abyss?
At that moment, Jiang Chen thought of The End of the God Tree. Could The End of the God Tree be the Origin Energy Orb?
"Is the Origin Energy Orb of the Nine Abyssal Abyss the same as yours?"
"I don’t know about that," Qiaosu Huina replied. "The nature of Origin Energy can vary; it might be an orb, something else entirely, or even a giant tree."
