Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse

The form of the Sword Beast exploded completely, akin to dazzling, multicolored fireworks. With the Sword Beast’s obstruction gone, Jiang Chen moved unimpeded. He led the two to a magnificent palace!

This was the sword dao inheritance of a quasi-Emperor, carrying the quasi-Emperor’s sword dao insights and also possessing the quasi-Emperor’s cultivation secret techniques and divine weapons!

In the original story, a disciple of the Sword Palace rapidly rose to power with this sword dao inheritance, becoming a formidable figure. Even in the later stages of the Nine Heavens Realm, he was a well-known existence.

Although his talent was decent, it was several grades below that of Jing Muyu. Despite already having Mu Jianxue as her master, having another inheritance was like having an additional trump card. No one would complain about having too many trump cards!

“Muyu, you go in and receive the inheritance!” Jiang Chen said slowly, pointing at the palace in front of them.

“Brother Jiang Chen, aren’t you coming in too?” Jing Muyu looked at the palace nearby, slightly hesitant.

“The inheritance can only be received by one person!” “If I go in, then you won’t be able to receive this inheritance!” Jiang Chen explained.

This kind of inheritance palace was unique, allowing only one person to enter. If more entered, it would likely choose the one with higher cultivation or talent.

“Then let Brother Jiang Chen receive it! Or let Sister Ruyu do it!” Jing Muyu knew the significance of the treasure before her and felt it would be a waste on her.

“This inheritance isn’t suitable for us, it suits you the best! And haven’t you always wanted to become stronger?”

“This is the best opportunity! If you don’t seize it today, it will be hard to catch up with us later!” Jiang Chen patiently persuaded.

He understood Jing Muyu’s temperament and character. Her reluctance was because she wanted to give them the good stuff.

“Go, Muyu! This is the Holy Son’s arrangement, and he surely has better plans ahead!” Yan Ruyu gently said, touching Jing Muyu’s head.

Seeing this, Jing Muyu no longer hesitated, nodded, and walked into the palace.

Hum.

The palace emitted a divine light, enveloping Jing Muyu, seemingly performing some kind of test.

Moments later, the doors opened wide, revealing a golden and resplendent sight, with an immortal sword intent lingering in its depths.

Seeing this, Jing Muyu looked back at Jiang Chen and the others, then briskly walked inside. As Jing Muyu entered, the entire palace closed.

Looking at the closed palace, Jiang Chen said, “Muyu won’t come out for a while, let’s go find some opportunities and collect some points!”

The ranking in the Supreme Palace was very special. It wasn’t just about being powerful or talented.

One needed to complete special tasks to gain points. For example, obtaining certain inheritances or slaying ferocious beasts could earn points.

It wasn’t solely based on talent and cultivation. But often, the top ten were the strongest, as greater strength made it easier to earn points.

The easiest way to earn points was to slay beings in the Supreme Palace, where the weakest started at the True King level, and the strongest reached the quasi-Saint or even Saint level.

Ordinary disciples found it difficult to kill such ferocious beasts and naturally couldn’t earn better points. Therefore, the top ten were usually the most powerful.

Perhaps there were deviations, but they wouldn’t be too outrageous.

Rumble.

As the crowd surged out, there were intense explosions and vibrations all around, like endless fireworks, extremely piercing.

The rules here weren’t difficult to grasp, one could figure them out with a bit of exploration. Most people knew that the islands with palaces were where opportunities lay.

Although there were many islands, they were few compared to the number of people who entered. Naturally, for these opportunities, beings of all factions would fight.

Jiang Chen was ready to seize another opportunity. This one was very suitable for Yan Ruyu, belonging to the Yin-Yang Dao opportunity!

It was clearly visible, like a divine sword, easy to recognize at a glance. The Yin-Yang inheritance for Yan Ruyu was the same.

The whole island resembled a Yin-Yang diagram, and though it appeared to be two islands, it was actually one, connected by small land bridges.

When Jiang Chen arrived, there were already many people gathered on the Yin-Yang Island.

There were different races and humans. There were about dozens of people, all vying for the entire Yin-Yang Dao.

Their appearance also activated the fierce beast inside. It was a tiger-like beast, with black and white fur and heterochromatic pupils, like a Yin-Yang diagram engraved within.

The black and white tiger roared heaven-shakingly, spreading black and white divine light, containing terrifying power, like a divine knife tearing the void apart. Some cultivators couldn’t resist and were directly slain.

“Damn it, this beast is so strong!”

“An eighth-level Grand Sovereign guarding, when did the Supreme Palace become so terrifying!”

“So many people, yet unable to leave a wound on it!”

“Damn it!”

“It seems that to seize this opportunity, only an extraordinary genius can do it!”

Many beings were on the verge of spitting blood, as dozens of them couldn’t handle this beast. Even among them, there were Grand Sovereigns.

However, facing this beast, they were easily defeated, as if made of paper, effortlessly slain.

At the same time.

Boom!!

A terrifying oppressive force swept through. Immediately following, a huge tiger’s paw tore through the void, coming with a sharp howl, its fierce metallic Qi ravaging all directions.

With a thud, the Yin Yang Beast was directly sent flying, harshly crashing onto the ground below.

It must be said, the quality of these islands are incredibly terrifying. The attacks of the crowd couldn’t leave even a scratch on the islands.

“Bai Chen, the White Tiger Divine Son!”

“It’s actually him!”

“We’re doomed, with him here, this opportunity is destined to be out of our reach!”

“Ah, it’s finally impossible to compete with these monsters!”

“Well, it’s not like we could do anything to that fierce beast anyway!”

Seeing Bai Chen’s arrival, many felt despair. A tiger in front of them was already unbeatable, and now another one?

And it’s the monstrous White Tiger God Son, no less. He’s much stronger than the tiger in front of us.

If it were just the Yin Yang Tiger, they might have had a chance, but with Bai Chen, they had absolutely no hope left.

Whoosh.

Bai Chen soared into the sky, his body radiant, with his flowing hair enveloped in divine light, as if made from gold, resembling a sun god descending to earth, dazzling like the sun, spirited and vibrant.

Seeing Bai Chen’s arrival, everyone was shocked, their eyes filled with awe. This White Tiger Divine Son was too monstrous, just the pressure he casually emitted made them feel suffocated!

Just as Bai Chen was about to make a move, a gentle voice suddenly sounded.

“Fellow daoists, this place is fated for me! I hope you can show me some face and leave this place to me!”

The gentle voice, though soft, contained divine power, reverberating in everyone’s ears. Moreover, this voice was very familiar.
