Chapter 564 - 562: Purple Jade Map

Chapter 564: Chapter 562: Purple Jade Map

Treasured light illuminated the world as anomalies appeared one after another.

Exotic Treasures were shooting out from the Sky Pit Vortex.

There were at least a hundred of them, their treasured light glittering dazzlingly, appearing utterly extraordinary.

Although they couldn’t compare to the Ancient Sword Scripture or the Black Tortoise Pearl, they were all Supreme Treasures capable of inciting a mad scramble among the crowd.

Before, the Exotic Treasures had only emerged from the Sky Pit Vortex one by one.

But now, it was like a riot of treasures. They scrambled over one another to surge into the sky and fall in all directions.

However, this was only the first Anomaly. ℯℯ𝑙.

The next moment, a beam of purple light that filled the entire Sky Pit Vortex shot out, piercing through the heavens.

A square, purple-colored piece of jade slowly emerged from the pillar of light.

Its radiance was so resplendent that it stripped all other treasured lights of their color, making them dim in comparison.

And it was accompanied by its own Anomaly!

A scene materialized above the Purple Jade.

Spirit Trees covered the land, with Spirit Mountains and great rivers. Peaks stood as dense as a forest, silver waterfalls hung in the air, and mist swirled about, creating a scene like an Immortal Realm.

Ore veins coiled like dragons, their treasured light soaring to the sky. Spirit Medicines covered the mountainsides, a dazzling array as far as the eye could see. Strange beasts and exotic birds leaped through the forests and flew through the air.

This was undoubtedly an undeveloped, pristine Holy Land with infinite Cultivation Resources.

It was the scene of the treasured land depicted on the supreme map.

It was simply astonishing, utterly breathtaking.

For a mere map to be accompanied by such an Anomaly, one could only imagine its value.

Generally speaking, the more Supreme an item, the more stunning the Anomaly it produced.

Moreover, for the next one hundred years, it would be protected by the rules of the Six Paths Illusion Realm.

As long as one held the map, no one could invade or seize it.

"It’s... it’s the Map of the Supreme New Domain!"

"That’s a pure and treasured land, a place that could rival the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain!"

"Quick, grab it! I have to get it."

"If I get this map, I’ll instantly become the second greatest transcendental power in the Six Paths Illusion Realm, second only to the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain."

...

The nine peaks surrounding the Sky Pit Vortex were home to Peak Masters who could no longer remain calm.

Their gazes were all fixed on the center of the Sky Pit Vortex.

The Purple Jade slowly emerged, unlike the hundred other Exotic Treasures.

By now, the light from the hundred Exotic Treasures had already scattered in all directions, and people had begun to fight and kill over them.

However, most of them landed on the nine peaks.

Jiang Jichen released Little Haas, Han Qing, and everyone else from his Spiritual Space.

They too joined the scramble for the Exotic Treasures.

They had already obtained five Exotic Treasures.

All of them had fallen automatically onto their peak.

The other peaks had fared similarly, with about five Exotic Treasures landing on each.

Over fifty more shot toward the giant peak.

But only ten were intercepted, fought over in endless, bloody battles.

"You’re not needed here. You can’t help with this fight, so go and contend for the other Exotic Treasures!"

Jiang Jichen said to Tang Han and the others.

The remaining Exotic Treasures had all shot down from Six Paths Peak, and many people were chasing after them to fight for them.

Meanwhile, inside the Sky Pit Vortex, there was only the single Map of the Supreme New Domain.

The battle for this treasure would be confined to a select few Peak Masters.

Anyone else who tried would just be throwing their life away.

Everyone basically understood this, so they all leaped off the peak and charged down the mountain in pursuit of the Exotic Treasures.

Tang Han, Suotu, Fang Ying, and the others clearly knew this as well, so they also rushed down from the peak to chase after the treasures.

Only Han Qing and Little Gray remained. Youu also naturally stayed behind Jiang Jichen, though she had yet to make a move.

Hua Xiaoling, Qing Xun, and Blood Hand didn’t go after the treasures; they remained in the Spiritual Space.

Jiang Jichen had them focus on comprehending the Ancient Sword Scripture!

As for Tang Han, the Bald Man, Fang Ying, the Two Beauties of Yunshui, and the others, they had just obtained five powerful Exotic Treasures.

They were very strong when they worked together, which was why Jiang Jichen felt at ease letting them go after the treasures.

On the other peaks, figures flickered and rushed down Six Paths Mountain.

Finally, the summit of Six Paths Peak quieted down, with fewer than a hundred people remaining.

And in the Sky Pit Vortex, only the single Purple Jade continued to bob up and down.

It hadn’t shot out yet; only the Anomaly it projected now filled the sky.

Furthermore, everything on the summit of Six Paths Peak was being reflected onto the void by a mysterious power, visible to anyone who looked up.

Everyone could sense the heavy, oppressive atmosphere on the summit of Six Paths Peak.

A great battle was on the verge of erupting.

The moment the Purple Jade shot out of the Sky Pit Vortex would be the moment the battle began.

"This time, aside from the Nascent Soul Ancestors and the Sixth Young Venerable, all the strongest people in the Six Paths Illusion Realm have appeared on Six Paths Peak. When dragons and tigers fight for food, the casualties will be horrific. But I wonder who will ultimately obtain the Purple Jade Map and become the second transcendental power under the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain?"

"We can rule out Jiang Jichen first. He’s only in the Spirit Infant Realm, has used up all his tricks, is the weakest of the nine peaks, and has made an enemy of all the other Peak Masters. He’s a dead man for sure!"

"I think Xuanyuan Qingyi and the Young Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall are the most likely to get it!"

"Not necessarily. That mysterious woman hasn’t made a move, and the four old men behind her are terrifyingly powerful. I bet their strength isn’t much weaker than Xuanyuan Qingyi’s or the Young Hall Master’s."

"Yeah, and there’s that one mysterious peak where no one has shown themselves. I heard that its master is an absolute expert from the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain. The Holy Mountain is probably determined to get the Purple Jade, too. They don’t want a second transcendental power to emerge."

"Hmph, if the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain gets the Purple Jade Map, then this Six Paths Illusion Realm might as well just be called the Heavenly Dao Illusion Realm."

...

The people of the Six Paths Illusion Realm, seeing this scene, were not only shocked but also broke out into various discussions.

Clearly, Jiang Jichen was almost completely overlooked.

「Meanwhile, inside an Ancient Hall on the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain...」

A figure sat cross-legged upon a Chaos Cyan Lotus, eyes slightly closed. The aura and majesty emanating from him were like the Celestial Dao itself, astonishing to the extreme.

Outside the Chaos Pool, two figures with power approaching that of Nascent Soul Ancestors stood guard.

From this, one could imagine just how noble the status of the person on the Chaos Cyan Lotus was.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes!

BOOM!

His gaze seemed to pierce through the river of time, seeing all the secrets of the Celestial Dao.

"The Purple Jade Map must not be lost!"

A voice filled with majesty rang out.

"We have already sent the Eighteenth Envoy of the Holy Mountain. The Purple Jade is as good as ours."

One of the beings close to the Nascent Soul Ancestor level replied.

"Not enough. Teleport the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Envoys over as well!"

"Yes, Mountain Master!"

Following that, two beams of light shot up from the Holy Mountain.

Those in the know understood that the Holy Mountain had paid a great price to directly teleport two even more terrifying experts to Six Paths Peak.

’It seems the Purple Jade Map falling into the hands of the Heavenly Dao Holy Mountain is now a foregone conclusion!’

Many people sighed in resignation.

As for Xuanyuan Qingyi, his expression turned ugly as he watched the sudden appearance of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Envoys of the Holy Mountain. "Hmph," he muttered, "I’m afraid the Purple Jade Map is going to fall into the Holy Mountain’s hands this time. To think they’d be willing to pay such a steep price to teleport Successor Saint Envoys here directly."
