Chapter 1199 - The Divination Map
Spiritual Intelligence > Spiritual Wisdom
Jiang Chen saluted Tianji Zi and went into seclusion. He couldn’t wait to explore the Great Divination Art. Although Tianji Mountain wasn’t any kind of fancy summit, it had the necessary conditions for cultivation. Being a true disciple, he had his own private place of cultivation – a courtyard with a beautiful scenic view.
After entering the courtyard, Big Yellow flew over and joined. Tianji Zi knew about the relationship between these two, so he didn’t stop them. It wasn’t anything strange as there were also plenty of disciples who liked to keep demonic pets.
Tianji Zi didn’t find Jiang Chen to avoid interrupting his cultivation. In his point of view, it was extremely hard for Jiang Chen to comprehend the content of the Great Divination Art with just three days, let alone stepping into the stage of Spiritual Wisdom. He knew how important time was to Jiang Chen now, so he had decided to create the most serene condition for Jiang Chen.
“Little Chen, have you really promised to go to the Evil Abyss?”
Big Yellow asked immediately after entering the room.
“Apparently, yes. Why? Do you know anything about this Evil Abyss?”
Jiang Chen looked at Big Yellow with curiosity. Big Yellow seemed to have a certain understanding of the Immortal World. He might have knowledge that was far beyond Jiang Chen’s imagination.
“I don’t know, but judging from that old man’s reaction, this Evil Abyss must be an extremely dangerous place.” Big Yellow shook his head.
“When have we ever been afraid of danger? We even went to the Devil World back then despite the danger and what happened eventually? We gained full control of that place.”
Jiang Chen shrugged and showed a who-cares-look.
“It’s true that we have never been afraid of anything. The more dangerous the place, the more exciting it is. It would be extremely boring to let master dog continue staying in Skycloud Pavilion. However, that Tian Muyun sure was ruthless for sentencing such a heavy punishment on you. Could it be that he has already guessed that you are going to be a threat to him?”
Said Big Yellow curiously. It was the first time that Tian Muyun saw Jiang Chen, but that didn’t make him less hostile to this new disciple. As the master of Skycloud Pavilion, Tian Muyun was supposed to feel happy for having such a genius in the sect. If one thought that Tian Muyu could detect Jiang Chen’s ulterior motive and hostility towards him, it was a serious mistake because Jiang Chen had never shown even the slightest hostility to Tian Muyun. He had never told anyone about the secret of Ouyang He. So, no matter how smart Tian Muyun was, it would be impossible for him to figure out the connection between Jiang Chen and Ouyang He.
“He was just trying to find a sense of superiority from me, which is basically one of the similarities amongst geniuses. However, I’m afraid that not even he would think that I would accept this punishment.”
Jiang Chen smiled. Given his intelligence, he was crystal clear about Tian Muyun’s thought process. Unfortunately, Tian Muyun was destined to be disappointed, there was no way that he could obtain the sense of superiority from Jiang Chen.
“Okay, okay. I can see that your passion for the Divination Art is running high. Master dog won’t disturb you anymore, but give master dog a piece of lotus leaf for my seclusion in preparation for the Evil Abyss adventure.” Big Yellow extended his paw in front of Jiang Chen.
Generously, Jiang Chen took out another piece of lotus leaf and gave it to him. As Big Yellow had helped him repair the Iron Dummy Array, he deserved such a reward.
After receiving the lotus leaf, he swaggered into one of the rooms and started his seclusion. This time, they were heading into the Evil Abyss that was full of evil and killings that it could turned people’s face pale at the mention of it. Thus, even Big Yellow didn’t dare show neglect to this and wanted to enhance his cultivation base as much as possible within these three days. In order to survive well in this menacing Immortal World, one had to have a strong cultivation base. Everything else besides that would be as insignificant as floating clouds.
As Big Yellow had already gone into seclusion, Jiang Chen naturally wouldn’t delay anymore. Despite the simplicity of his room, every essential items and equipment needed for cultivation could be found inside. At the centre of the room was a golden cushion. The concentration of Immortal Qi in here was many folds better compared to the previous places and it was definitely greater than the level of Immortal Qi in the outer sect’s Martial Palace. Additionally, with golden cushion acting as the convergence point of the Immortal Qi flow, it made the cultivation process very efficient and effective.
Jiang Chen sat cross-legged on top of the cushion and quickly adjusted his state to the best condition. His pair of bright eyes had fallen on the scripture of the Great Divination Art.
Richly endowed by nature, start circulating the Divination Art.
These charming nine words were written on top of the ancient paper. Below them was the densely written chant. Every chant was profound and difficult for people to understand. After the chant about the Spiritual Wisdom realm, there were the chants of Heavenly Vision and Heavenly Will realm, however, there was no chant of the Divination realm that could be found, except for an imprinted picture of a starry sky.
Jiang Chen certainly wouldn’t underestimate this starry sky. The strong aura of divination made him feel that it wasn’t similar to any kind of ordinary technique.
“This is a divination map. I would like to know how powerful the secrets of this map has.”
Jiang Chen placed all of his attention on the divination map, circulating his Great Soul Derivation Technique that moved like tides across the divination map back and forth. At the same time, he circulated the dragon transformation skill to assist his searching. All along, he succeeded in any kind of combat techniques and cultivation law without encountering any bottlenecks or obstacle during the process with the help of both the dragon transformation skill and the Great Soul Derivation Technique.
*Hu…* *Hu…*
Jiang Chen’s soul power drifted across for nearly ten minutes. The supposedly stationary divination map began to circulate all of a sudden as if it had been stimulated. Then, he saw a vast expanse of ethereal storm, sweeping marks and colourful luminous spots that looked either real or unreal. They were boundless and were everywhere.
He felt as if his soul had landed on a vast expanse of sea, continuously being overturned and ripped apart.
*Barf!*
Jiang Chen’s body shook, then coughed up a mouthful of blood. Immediately, he withdrew his soul power from it.
“That’s a very profound realm that not even I can touch it.”
Jiang Chen was shocked. His face was pale, he could feel as if his soul was going to be crushed. Although it was only for a brief moment, his clothes were already drenched in sweat. Thinking back about that dangerous situation, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat frightened. The divination map had turned into a whirlpool that almost sucked in his entire soul. If it wasn’t because of his quick response, his soul would have been devoured. After losing his soul, he would end up like a true idiot and faced inconceivable consequences.
“It was my mistake to comprehend the divination map first before even reaching the Spiritual Wisdom stage. This can only work by taking one step at a time. Otherwise, I will enter into a state of Qi Deviation and end up hurting myself.”
Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief, he immediately found the key reason of the encounter.
