Terran Guardian - Chapter 4014

Chapter 3989: The Great Void Creation Fruit

“No, this won’t work!”

In the void of a celestial abode, Qin Shan held the token in his hand, his face grim.

No matter how he activated the token, he couldn’t break the celestial abode’s restrictions.

But the problem was…

the token clearly pointed to this place.

This situation surprised him.

Then,

Qin Shan realized something, his eyes darkening.

“Someone beat me to it. This place has restrictions left by my Qin family ancestor. Who can break these restrictions and set up new ones—”

He tried to attack, wanting to destroy the restrictions with his strength.

But unfortunately ,

Qin Shan found that the restrictions here were stronger than he had expected. Even with his full strength, he could barely budge them.

Half an hour later,

Qin Shan gave up the idea of breaking the formation.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but that his strength was insufficient.

“The person who left this formation, even if not an eighth-level Grandmaster, is probably close!”

Qin Shan took a deep breath, his face filled with resentment.

With his current strength, although he couldn’t compare to the geniuses on the Immortal Emperor Stele, he was definitely among the top tier below the Immortal Emperor Stele.

Even so, he couldn’t shake the formation. This

shows

the sheer power of such a formation.

Only a Grandmaster with one foot in the eighth rank could set up such a massive formation.

Moreover, even if he broke the formation, it would be useless.

Since the opponent had broken the original formation’s restrictions and then set up a new one, it meant that nothing inside the Immortal Abode could remain.

Breaking the formation now would probably only reveal an empty Immortal Abode secret realm.

Therefore,

Qin Shan saw no need to fight to the death here.

He turned and left,

continuing towards the next Immortal Abode secret realm.

Many ancestors of the Qin family had entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, and each generation of ancestors who entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace left behind one or more Immortal Abode secret realms.

As a cultivator of the Qin family who entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace in this generation, Qin Shan’s task was to take away the legacy of his predecessors and leave some opportunities for future generations.

Speaking of which…

The Crimson Jade Dao Palace is filled with numerous opportunities. These so-called opportunities are not entirely left behind by the original Crimson Jade Dao Venerable; a large part is related to the powerful individuals who entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace in the past. The

Crimson Jade Dao Palace has existed for an extremely long time, and countless cultivators have entered this place throughout the ages. Generation after generation of cultivators have entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, taking away the opportunities within and leaving some things behind as well.

In the end, after

the passage of time,

the opportunities within the Crimson Jade Dao Palace are still plentiful.

After the first secret realm immortal abode was attacked first, Qin Shan dared not delay and immediately headed for the next immortal abode.

Over several months,

Qin Shan found a total of thirteen immortal abodes left behind by the Qin family, but only three immortal abodes remained unaffected; the remaining ten immortal abodes had all been looted.

Even though he had expected it, when he actually faced it, he still felt a heart-wrenching pain that made it hard to breathe.

“Ten immortal abodes… Don’t let this humble Daoist know who did this, otherwise this matter will never end!”

Qin Shan said bitterly.

His anger subsided, and he could only abandon the matter.

The Qin family had left behind far more than thirteen immortal abodes and secret realms, but Qin Shan didn’t continue exploring the remaining ones. The reason was simple:

not enough time!

Any immortal herb needs time to mature.

Without enough time,

a half-mature herb is useless.

The thirteen immortal abodes and secret realms Qin Shan had visited were left by Qin family ancestors at least a hundred billion years ago.

As for the remaining immortal abodes and secret realms, there wasn’t enough time, so there was no need to waste time.

And as for immortal abodes and secret realms from even earlier times, they no longer existed.

After all, before Qin Shan entered the Crimson Jade Immortal Abode, many Qin family cultivators had entered this place, and those more ancient immortal abodes and secret realms had all been looted; they couldn’t possibly have survived until now.

Otherwise,

it would be like doing all the work for someone else.

Understanding this, Qin Shan simply stopped searching for Qin family immortal abodes and secret realms and instead looked for immortal abodes left behind by other forces.

…

In the vast void, numerous immortal mansions and secret realms emerged, and cultivators from all sides fought endlessly.

Some immortal emperors were severely injured and fled, some died and their cultivation dissipated, while others swept away everything, seizing all opportunities.

At the same time ,

as time went by,

more and more Longevity Tokens appeared.

Every appearance of a Longevity Token would cause a frenzy among all sides.

After all, the Longevity Token was the most important thing to obtain for reaching the Longevity Immortal City, which was the greatest opportunity for the Crimson Jade Dao Palace.

Who could resist such a treasure?

On the other side,

Shen Changqing was also traveling through the void, casually taking two more Longevity Tokens into his pocket. He didn’t care much about the quantity of such things.

But when he saw them, he naturally took them.

On this day,

Shen Changqing had just taken a rare and precious herb into his pocket when he sensed the vibration of the Jiang family token.

He moved his divine sense slightly, and then followed the token’s guidance, traversing the void.

Having been inside the Crimson Jade Dao Palace for so long, this was the first time the Jiang family token had reacted, indicating that a Jiang family prodigy was pleading for help.

Naturally

, Shen Changqing wouldn’t stand idly by.

He had owed Jiang Daoxuan a favor and promised to help the Jiang family prodigy; how could he go back on his word?

…

In the chaotic void

, a ten-thousand-foot-tall ancient tree was rooted, its roots coiled like dragons, disappearing into the vast void, seemingly nourishing itself with the power of the entire void. And on this ten-thousand-foot-tall ancient tree, a lone fruit hung there.

A rich Daoist aura emanated from the fruit, accompanied by a refreshing fragrance that soothed the soul; even a single breath was invigorating.

“The Void Creation Fruit!”

“The Crimson Jade Dao Palace truly nurtures such a rare and precious treasure!”

Many cultivators gazed at the fruit, their eyes burning with undisguised fervor, a fierce greed surging within them.

However—

no one dared to act rashly.

The reason was simple.

News of the Void Creation Fruit had spread, attracting numerous powerful figures.

Among them

were many top-tier forces.

These powerful figures coveted the Void Creation Fruit, making it far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. Despite understanding this, none left.

Although their chances of obtaining the Void Creation Fruit seemed slim at present, even a one in ten thousand possibility was worth the gamble.

“The Taixu Creation Fruit… We must obtain this. Even if we gain nothing else from this trip to the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, it will have been worthwhile!”

Jiang Yunchuan spoke slowly, his words revealing his determination to acquire the Taixu Creation Fruit.

Beside him stood a man and a woman.

Both bore a resemblance to Jiang Yunchuan in their features. These were the other two prodigies of the Jiang family: Jiang Yunwang and Jiang Yuntang. Upon hearing

this , the latter frowned, her bright eyes sweeping across the void before finally settling on the Taiyi Immortal Sect’s camp. “Now that news of the Taixu Creation Fruit has spread, other forces may be alright, but the Taiyi Immortal Sect will definitely not let us succeed. Right now, the Taiyi Immortal Sect has many members and is powerful enough to be difficult to deal with. Not to mention… there’s also Luo Xinghe!” Unlike the Jiang family, the Taiyi Immortal Sect is currently at its peak. Over the years, the Jiang family has only possessed four Crimson Jade Tokens. Looking at the Taiyi Immortal Sect, excluding Luo Xinghe, there are twelve other Immortal Emperors who have entered. While these Immortal Emperors are not as strong as Luo Xinghe, they are still formidable. In terms of strength, they are at least among the top tier of Immortal Emperors. As for the Jiang family, three entered the Crimson Jade Dao Palace. Jiang Yuntang and Jiang Yunwang’s strength is barely enough to handle one true disciple of the Taiyi Immortal Sect. As for the remaining ten, Jiang Yunchuan’s chances of suppressing them all single-handedly are slim. And there’s one more crucial point: Luo Xinghe! Although he hasn’t appeared yet, the news of the Taixu Creation Fruit has spread, and he will inevitably come; it’s only a matter of time. If Luo Xinghe arrives, the Jiang family will be even more hopeless. No— if it really comes to that , let alone competing for the Taixu Creation Fruit, whether the Jiang family can even escape is a question. Therefore, in Jiang Yuntang’s view, abandoning the Taixu Creation Fruit was the most reasonable course of action in this situation. However, Jiang Yunchuan’s expression was icy, and he directly transmitted his thoughts: “The Taixu Creation Fruit could never fall into the hands of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, otherwise the Taiyi Immortal Sect would surely produce another genius on the Immortal Emperor Stele. As for Luo Xinghe… I have already used the token given by the Ancestor to send a message, and if nothing unexpected happens, the cultivator the Ancestor mentioned should be on his way. The Ancestor once said that this person’s strength is unfathomable. If what the Ancestor said is true, this person might be able to contend with Luo Xinghe!” Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuntang and Jiang Yunwang exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of doubt in each other’s eyes. It wasn’t that they didn’t believe their Ancestor’s words. It was just that Luo Xinghe’s strength was undeniable. The fourth strongest on the Immortal Emperor Stele. Throughout the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, there were very few Immortal Emperors who could truly contend with him. Thinking of this… Jiang Yunwang couldn’t help but ask telepathically, “Brother Yunchuan, do you really think the cultivator the Ancestor spoke of can deal with Luo Xinghe? After all, to contend with a powerhouse of Luo Xinghe’s level, one would need to be at least among the top ten on the Immortal Emperor Stele. But right now, our Jiang family has very few among the top ten on the Immortal Emperor Stele that we can win over!” Most of the top ten geniuses on the Immortal Emperor Stele have top-tier forces backing them. It’s impossible for the Jiang family to win them over. Jiang Yunchuan’s expression was calm: “The ranking on the Immortal Emperor Stele isn’t absolute. There are also some cultivators in the world who dislike fame and have never made a name for themselves. Since that person is valued by the Ancestor, their strength is definitely not simple. Do you not even believe the Ancestor?” Upon hearing this, both of them fell silent. They dared not disbelieve the Ancestor’s words. After all, that person was currently the strongest in the Jiang family, and what he said was certainly true. Hearing Jiang Yunchuan’s words now, the two dispelled their concerns. Just then… Jiang Yunchuan stepped forward and spoke in a loud voice, “Everyone—”
