Chapter 2013 - 82: Imprint Begins

Huan Cai was feeling a bit lost; she didn’t know where she had ended up. The surroundings had a feeling of both strangeness and familiarity.

After a brief moment of distraction, Huan Cai’s eyes suddenly widened, showing an expression of unbelievable astonishment.

A gray space, an indiscernible mist, and an overwhelming sense of oppression. This place is...

"Chaotic Void!?"

Huan Cai was truly frightened; she never imagined Zhang Xiaoman would bring her here. It’s known to be the extremity of extremes, even beings like her at the Middle-level Transcendent don’t dare to easily venture here.

Chaotic Void is quite a terrifying place; Huan Cai had been here once long ago, and that journey almost cost her half her life. Since then, she has never returned.

Although she hasn’t returned, Huan Cai still remembers the features of this place. She originally thought Zhang Xiaoman was bringing her to a location with relatively dense Spiritual Power for imprinting, but she never expected it to be here.

Indeed, the edge of the Chaotic Void does have quite a decent density of Spiritual Power, but compared to other places, this is far too dangerous. Besides the frequent presence of powerful Wild Beasts, the harshness of the environment is the main issue. One careless move and you could be swallowed by that gray mist; even a Middle-level Transcendent would be doomed.

"Ji Xing, why did you bring me here?"

Huan Cai quickly turned around, wanting to leave, but the teleportation door Zhang Xiaoman opened had already closed.

Just as she was planning to teleport herself away, a voice suddenly reached her ears.

"Since you’re here, you should get started quickly."

The speaker was the Demon Princess.

Huan Cai then noticed there were two other figures not far away. She hadn’t really seen them before; all her focus was on being amazed by her current location, only now did she have the time to take a closer look.

"Such pure Water attribute ability! This level of strength... this Green Little Dragon’s power might even surpass mine!"

Huan Cai first looked at Ni Yang. At this moment, Ni Yang had already transformed into its form within the Sect Leader Jade; its appearance looked like a Q-version petite dragon, with a big head and a small body, its eyes blinking cutely.

Then she focused her attention on the white-clothed woman beside her, the one who had spoken earlier.

"Incredible... completely imperceptible Spiritual Power fluctuations... how is this possible... could she be..."

Huan Cai’s eyes suddenly widened in disbelief as she looked at the Demon Princess.

She clearly understood that not being able to detect Spiritual Power fluctuations means something significant. Knowing the other could appear here, she realized the person was definitely not ordinary, therefore there was only one conclusion.

"Upper Transcendent Level!?"

Huan Cai suddenly found herself at a loss for words; her mind was now blank. She never imagined she would encounter the legendary Upper Transcendent Level big shot just by coming to imprint a Star Imprint.

In this current era, even in the most ancient Aigus Star Domain, such an Upper Transcendent Level presence had never been seen. No one could theorize what was really happening, not even the Observer, but there’s one thing everyone knows: apart from that one individual, there seem to be no Upper Transcendent Level entities left in the universe.

"Wait! Apart from that one... could it be..."

Huan Cai looked at the Demon Princess with increasing terror, and her mind was already churned with turmoil.

"Don’t worry, Huan Cai, she’s here to help us. We’ll just do the Star Imprint here; you don’t need to worry about anything else. Just assist me in successfully imprinting that fifth Star Imprint, and I’ll give you the subsequent rewards."

Huan Cai secretly swallowed, her heart somewhat bitter.

"Can I not do it... I’ll return the Life Seed to you, okay..."

Of course, she only dared to think this; not to mention she has no ability to find another Life Seed for Zhang Xiaoman, considering the latter’s relationship with that notable figure must be extraordinary. If she dared to back out, her fate wouldn’t be pleasant.

Huan Cai now felt like crying without tears; her initial confidence had completely evaporated. She never imagined Ji Xing had such a powerful figure behind him; had she known, she wouldn’t have come.

Indeed, with such a mighty supporter behind Ji Xing, no wonder his strength was so formidable. Those Supreme Sequence abilities must have been wielded through High Order Divine Artifacts.

It infuriates her to think that comparing themselves is infuriating; there are only two High Order Divine Artifacts in the entire Aigus Star Domain, and none are in her hands. Yet this guy uses them as if they’re free, so of course, his people aren’t her match.

Huan Cai felt she had found the truth of the matter, thinking Ji Xing might be the Demon Lord’s successor from a certain standpoint, but guessing like this wasn’t wrong.

"Ji Xing, have you gathered all the materials? I mean... the Chaos Spirit Flower, that thing is notoriously hard to find..."

If you’ve come, you may as well settle down; since there’s no resistance, Huan Cai reluctantly accepts fate.

She no longer hopes to receive subsequent rewards, as long as the other promises she can leave after the task is completed, facing an Upper Transcendent Level being offers her no resistance at all.
