At the same moment, system prompts resonated within Jiang Chen's Sea of Consciousness, drawing a smile to his lips.
The great powerhouse who had conveniently 'passed by' the location of Gu Ran and Fu Huacan, was, of course, none other than him!
Throughout the entire event, he didn't show himself, nor did he reveal his aura, cultivation base, or even the slightest ripple of his divine sense.
The entire procedure was overseen by Nangong Wan!
That icy snort was also emitted by Nangong Wan!
In this manner, Gu Ran would remain oblivious to Jiang Chen's existence, thus maintaining the upper hand in information secrecy.
'By interfering, I managed to prevent the dandy cultivator, Fu Huacan, from successfully 'lending a helping hand' to Gu Ran, bringing this plotline to a temporary halt.'
'However, influenced by the Heavenly Fate, Fu Huacan and the others are destined to cross paths with Gu Ran again, eventually leading to hostility and their ultimate downfall.'
'After Gu Ran offends the Fu Clan of Black Wood Island, his path will intersect with the Feng Clan due to the ties between the Fu and Feng Clans, among other reasons...'
'Thus, I will head back to Black Wood Island to continue my covert interference in Gu Ran's 'storyline', aiming to halt his triumphant rise!' With this plan in mind, Jiang Chen readied himself to journey back to Black Wood Island.
"Roar!!" Yet, right at that instant, a profoundly terrifying roar erupted from the nearby seabed.
Following that, it felt as though an underwater volcano had erupted!
A massive column of seawater blasted up from the seabed, creating a monstrous wave, before plummeting down with a terrifying force!
Boom!
As if a giant peak in the ocean had collapsed, numerous massive waves radiated outward, sweeping across the vicinity!
During this event, an extraordinarily powerful aura blanketed a large section of the surrounding sea!
This aura... it undoubtedly belonged to the Dao Palace realm!!
Beyond this potent aura, a faint tinge of scarlet began to diffuse across the ocean and the sky.
'Holy smokes! Could this be the surge of the Nether Demon Spiritual Qi?' Sensing the subtle traces of Nether Demon Spiritual Qi in the air, Jiang Chen's eyes widened in disbelief.
'Incredibly, has the Nether Demon Spiritual Qi erupted here in the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea?!'
'The Purple Heaven Holy Land just overcame Long Tianlu and repelled the Nether Demon Clan. In such a brief time, could the Nether Demon Clan have initiated an invasion here in the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea?!'
Then, it dawned on him.
The reason for the Nether Demon Clan's invasion of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea undoubtedly had to do with the protagonist, Gu Ran!
'With such might, it's indeed plausible according to calculations that the Nether Demon Clan could take over the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea.'
'However, the arrival of the Nether Demon Clan is essentially a boon for Gu Ran.'
'Of course, it's possible that the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect might genuinely fall, after all, they are the adversaries of Gu Ran.'
Pondering this, Jiang Chen's musings were interrupted when another disturbance erupted from the seabed pit.
This explosion resulted in countless fissures instantaneously forming in the seabed of the surrounding sea area.
Within the tumultuous sea, a horde of demonic beasts tainted by the Nether Demon Spiritual Qi surged forth wildly, their objective being to assault the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect!
And standing as the initial line of defense against these demonic beasts was the susceptible Black Wood Island!
'Damn, there are so many!' Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed at the oncoming horde of demonic beasts.
'But then again, the more I can slaughter, the better!'
'Plus, these demonic beasts offer quite the opportunity for me, heh heh!' A sly grin began to form on his face.
Then, Jiang Chen unsheathed the Purple Sun Thousand-Mile Sword and slashed fiercely into the ocean below, 'Myriad Changes Everlasting Sword!'
Splash!
This mystical Sword Dao technique instantly split into numerous sword threads, slaying a multitude of demonic beasts in the blink of an eye!
However, this time, Jiang Chen specifically aimed for demonic beasts below the Heavenly Origin realm.
This was because these demonic beasts were the primary prey for Gu Ran, who currently could not handle advanced demonic beasts.
Swoosh!
Splatter!
With a single swing of Jiang Chen's sword, the area spanning tens of thousands of miles beneath him instantly transformed into a sea of blood!
