Chapter 6472: Meeting

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jian Wushuang now could only rely on himself.

He planned to help Jiang Ni rescue Jiang Shang, then take them both away from this forsaken place and head to the Realm God Continent to reunite with Hui Qing.

After that, he would seek the help of the Star Spirit, to see if it was possible to resurrect Jiang Shang’s brother.

For such a small matter, if he were to ask the Giant Star Spirit, the latter would likely agree.

With this thought, Jian Wushuang nodded in satisfaction.

...

It wasn’t a bad idea.

Once he had repaid his debts, he could also venture into the Starry Sky for some time.

As for the Realm God Continent, he dared not stay any longer.

There was no choice—Gagarin had said too many terrifying things.

If the Great Realm King, “Jormungandr,” truly was an unrivaled existence, then he would certainly destroy him.

Jian Wushuang knew he had to escape quickly.

Venturing into the Starry Sky, with a Divine King at his side, he wouldn’t have to worry.

While thinking about these future matters, he had already arrived at the Ancient Court of Nine Heavens.

The majestic scenery above the clouds was mesmerizing.

Only Dao Lords were usually allowed to ascend here.

But with Jiang Ni’s arrival, not only had this rule been broken, but even the Immortal King of the Ancient Court had been replaced by Jiang Ni.

As the newly crowned Immortal King, Jiang Ni abolished all unnecessary rules and focused all her energy on strengthening the Ancient Realm.

Now, the Nine Heavens were no longer exclusive to the Dao Lords. One could even see many True Immortals busy working above the Nine Heavens.

“Hurry up! Don’t be careless with the materials being sent to the Abyss!”

“Yes, sir!”

An officer of the Ancient Court commanded his subordinates, who were transporting various materials, seemingly for some sort of formation.

“Sigh!”

Jian Wushuang recognized this officer as General Li, whom he had met once, a man closely associated with the Son of the Sword Pavilion.

General Li looked troubled at the moment.

Something major had happened in the Abyss.

The power within the Abyss had suddenly grown extremely violent. More and more demonic creatures had begun to pour out, each one stronger than the last.

Now, even the strongest beings of the Abyss had fled.

The entire Abyss had become a true den of demons.

The demonic creatures had occupied thousands of miles around the Abyss’s entrance.

Fortunately, these creatures required the environment near the Abyss to survive, or the entire Ancient Realm would have been doomed.

Even Jiang Ni herself could do nothing about it.

In the end, they had to seal the area with formations, temporarily suppressing the threat.

Jian Wushuang walked through the bustling crowd. While he could see others, no one could see him.

“The Abyss is in trouble?”

He frowned slightly, realizing he had almost forgotten about the Abyss entirely.

“Before I leave, I should take a look.”

He had always been curious about the Abyss.

Back when he was in the mid-level time-space, he had explored the Abyss and discovered a shocking secret at its bottom.

But now, such secrets meant little to him.

However, the Abyss in the Ancient Realm might be connected to the God Eye Clan.

Although Hei Qiu hadn’t mentioned it, Jian Wushuang’s attention had been focused on the universe-level secret realm.

Now that he’d heard about it again, he figured he might find some valuable information by entering the Abyss.

He walked slowly, lost in thought.

Before long, he arrived at the Tianzheng Hall of the Ancient Court!

This was where the Immortal King presided over the Ancient Court.

But Jiang Ni wasn’t here.

It was being managed by Yuan Zheng, the Honored Celestial Lord.

Now, everything was based on strength.

The daily affairs of the Ancient Court were handled by Yuan Zheng and Dragon Lord.

Dao Lords like Sancai and Baiyue had all retreated to train in seclusion.

As for Jiang Ni, she had been chosen as the Immortal King because of her unrivaled strength, setting a new benchmark for cultivators in the Ancient Realm.

But she didn’t involve herself in mundane affairs.

For example, Jiang Ni hadn’t interfered in the daily matters of the Ancient Court.

She had been hiding away in the Back Sea of the Nine Heavens, focusing on her cultivation.

Deep within the Nine Heavens was a vast purple sea of clouds.

This place was also known as the Back Sea.

Every Dao Lord of the Ancient Court had a cave dwelling here.

Jiang Ni was no exception.

After all, the Origin Source here was the densest.

It was the core of the entire Ancient Realm.

At the heart of the Back Sea stood a six-story pagoda.

On the top floor, where the wind blew from all directions, a carpet lay in the center.

At this moment, a peerless divine sword was lying flat on the carpet.

Next to the sword, a woman dressed in blue sat cross-legged.

Her eyes were closed, but a fierce killing intent emanated from her brow.

The aura of slaughter surrounding her made her appear extremely fierce, preventing anyone from daring to approach.

She was the strongest existence in the Ancient Court and even the Ancient Domain, “Jiang Ni.”

Her strength was at its peak.

With a single sword strike, she could split the world of the Ancient Domain.

This place was her exclusive cultivation ground, and no one would usually disturb her.

Unless the Ancient Domain itself was facing a life-or-death crisis.

At this moment, a young man dressed in black stood on the corridor of the pavilion, raising his eyes to gaze at Jiang Ni, who was sitting cross-legged in cultivation inside.

She hadn’t noticed him.

He didn’t rush to wake her either.

Instead, he used a strand of thought power to enter Jiang Ni’s sea of consciousness.

Whoosh!

“Oh, she’s already touched upon the truth of death!”

Jian Wushuang was somewhat surprised.

He saw that Jiang Ni was deep in cultivation, but he didn’t hurry and instead used his thought power to enter her sea of consciousness, curious to see how her cultivation had progressed.

To his surprise, he found that Jiang Ni’s thoughts were all focused on comprehending the truth of death.

This was the law of the Origin Source of death.

Though she hadn’t fully grasped it yet and had only touched upon the essence of death, it was a significant step.

She had entered the initial stage.

From this point onward, her comprehension would likely accelerate.

Earlier, Jian Wushuang had guessed that Jiang Ni would need millions of years. But now, it seemed that even without his guidance, she wouldn’t take that long—perhaps at most one hundred thousand years, and she could fully master the Origin Source of death.

“Death is the end of the physical body!”

“It is also the beginning of your transcendence over time!”

Jian Wushuang’s gentle words caused Jiang Ni’s entire body to tremble.

Her comprehension of the truth of death suddenly surged.

From touching upon it to entering the initial stage, and then rapidly advancing to the minor success stage, it all happened in one fluid motion.

“Impressive, truly impressive!” Jian Wushuang withdrew his thought power.

His true self clapped for Jiang Ni and said, “You haven’t slacked off all these years!”

Swish!

Jiang Ni instantly opened her eyes, staring at Jian Wushuang, who was leaning against the railing of the corridor. Her eyes immediately turned red.

It had been too long.

To her, the span of more than ten thousand years felt like an eternity.

It had consumed almost ninety-nine percent of her lifetime.

After all, she had only been born a little over ten thousand years ago.

She had spent the first few hundred years following Jian Wushuang, but the rest of that long time, she had ventured out on her own.

Not only was she searching for her trapped mother, but her thoughts were constantly with Jian Wushuang.

She had no information about her mother and had no choice but to temporarily give up that search.

But she had never given up on Jian Wushuang.

Back then, Jian Wushuang had turned the tide with his overwhelming power, casually suppressing even top Dao Lords.

There was no way he could have died at the hands of the Twin-Faced Buddha.

Even if the powerhouses from the Holy Land descended, Jian Wushuang should have been able to escape.

She had always believed this.

Until she learned the truth of the battle at Twin-Faced God Mountain, her certainty began to waver.

Because Jian Wushuang had never appeared at Twin-Faced God Mountain.

But Xiang Yang and Jiu Chen had died because of her.

And Jian Wushuang had vanished.
