Chapter 700 – A Plot (2/2)

Nonetheless, he wasn’t in a hurry. He was firm and calm as he knew that he couldn’t be careless or hasty while dealing with such a dark soul. It was fated that this battle would be a lengthy one.

He was trapped in this endless battle while the others were already seeking for potential treasures. However, to Jiang Chen there was no treasure that could attract him now, the giant dark soul in front of him was the most attractive to him.

If Jiang Chen could edify this Minor Saint dark soul and totally subdue it. It would become another trump card of his that could be used without limits―unlike the Talisman of Origin Combat Power of Great Master Ran Feng, which only could be used once.

…….

At the top of a huge castle in the Freedom Palace, Freedom King was sitting on his precious throne. He closed his eyes slightly, traces of golden light was shimmering between his eyebrows. The surrounding was filled with a strong aura with him at the centre. This shapeless aura was of a Minor Saint grade, anyone who stepped into this area would be totally manipulated by him.

At the bottom of the hall, a sturdy White Tiger was lying on the floor with its indifferent look, but Freedom King didn’t dare to provoke it. If the White Tiger goes mad, he wouldn’t stand a chance―the White Tiger was a lot stronger than him.

At this moment, the air in the hall trembled, followed by a ray of golden light. It turned into a man, Nan Bei Chao.

Nan Bei Chao’s face screamed murder. His Qi was slightly unstable and his eyes were insidious.

“Prince Nan Bei, how was it? Have you killed that Jiang Chen?”

Freedom King saw Nan Bei Chao appear and asked promptly.

“Humph! That bastard was already a Fourth Grade Combat Emperor but his combat strength is on par with mine. And he still has a scary weapon in his hand that can unleash a terrifying magma. If I wasn’t strong enough, I would have been incinerated in our battle.”

Nan Bei Chao made a cold humph. He felt very gloomy and aggrieved when he thought of the battle in the Death Mountain. This is the second time that he had failed to kill Jiang Chen. He swore that he wouldn’t let another failure happen.

“What? Fourth Grade Combat Emperor? He was merely a Second Grade Combat Emperor when he entered the mountain. How long has it been for him to reach the Fourth Grade? This Jiang Chen is truly scary, he needs to be killed as soon as possible.”

Freedom King’s face changed slightly. Jiang Chen’s speed of advancement was too quick and scary. He thought that Jiang Chen’s death would be certain when Nan Bei Chao attacked, but Nan Bei Chao was the one who suffered instead.

The fact was that Nan Bei Chao possessed the true Immortal Physique. An extraordinary genius like him was one of a kind, but Jiang Chen was way too scary when they were compared. Jiang Chen, a Fourth Grade Combat Emperor, was on par with Nan Bei Chao―a Sixth Grade Combat Emperor.

“That man will die under my hands sooner or later. Tomorrow, I will go to the Immortal Possessive Mountain to obtain the Immortal legacy. By that time, my progress of advancement will be astonishing. A mere Jiang Chen won’t be worthy enough to be put in my eyes.”

Nan Bei Chao said.

“Alright. If Prince Nan Bei really obtained the legacy, I believe you will become more powerful. Our plan for conquering the Mysterious Domain can be executed ahead of time.”

Freedom King’s face was full of surprise. He knew what kind of benefits Nan Bei Chao would get if he entered the Immortal Possessive Mountain.

The Immortal Possessive Mountain was one of the forbidden areas in the Divine Continent. The legend said that the Immortal’s possession lied beneath the mountain but those who entered in search for the Immortal’s treasure died within. Only a few of them came out, but they had all turned mad.

Therefore, this mountain had become forbidden. However, Nan Bei Chao was a reincarnation of an Immortal Soul, which carried the will of the Immortals. Thus, he could go in or out of the mountain as he pleased.

“Not just the Mysterious Domain, there are also a few large domains that must be under my control. Our first step towards conquering the Mysterious Domain is to eliminate the four major powers’ geniuses.”

Nan Bei Chao revealed a cold smile.

Freedom King was startled for a few seconds, he couldn’t grasp what Nan Bei Chao meant.

“Most of the geniuses of the major powers are currently in the Death Mountain and the highest grade to enter was only an Eighth Grade Combat Emperor. If we secretly send a Ninth Grade Combat Emperor into it and allowed him to release his power, it could possibly ignite the reformation of the seal―bringing disaster to everyone under the mountain.”

Nan Bei Chao said coldly.

*Hiss*

Such words had rendered Freedom King to heave a cold sigh. This method was too sinister. If such an accident were to happen in the Death Mountain, no one would be able to escape from the mountain. To the whole Mysterious Domain, it would be a disaster.
