Chapter 1424: The Fish That Got Away

boom!Ginger Cloud coldly glanced at the two elders below, her figure flickering again before leaving the boundless world and stepping into the interspace.But standing within the boundary, Jiang Yun's...Looking at Zhan Yuan, who had regained his freedom, Jiang Yun finally understood the reasons behind his previous doubts.

That so-called avatar of resentment that shattered on its own was not formed by him with his own power, but by the power of Wùdìng Hòuhuo!

This way, all of his attacks were unleashed without reservation onto the Wuding Soul Fire. This helped Zhan Yuan break free from the Wuding Soul Fire's suppression and finally escape!

No wonder Zhan Yuan's attacks lacked any real threat, no wonder he remained fearless when he saw himself appear!

Because he had already made up his mind, he would use his own power to help him break free from the shackles of the Wuding Soul Fire.

After all, with my current strength, I am absolutely capable of surpassing the combined efforts of many demon beasts like Wei Jiu.

After thinking everything through, Ginger Cloud's expression couldn't help but turn somewhat gloomy.

Logically, this is a mistake I absolutely should not have made.

Although he himself couldn't wield the power of the Soul Clan, as long as he paid a little attention, it shouldn't be difficult to notice that Zhan Yuan's split soul was condensed from the Unfixed Soul Fire.

But with the infusion of the Annihilation Demon Statue's power, his strength became immensely powerful. While his confidence soared, he also relaxed his vigilance.

But it's too late now, there's no way to turn back!

Although Jiang Yuan has recovered his freedom, Ginger Cloud still has confidence.

With my current strength, I should still be able to kill it.

But I have to hurry, because the power of this desolate demon statue won't last for long.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yun no longer wasted words. He took another step forward and appeared in front of Zhan Yuan. He stretched out his hand, condensing all his physical strength, and smashed a heavy punch toward Zhan Yuan.

"Boom!"

Jiāngyún's punch landed on Zhānyuàn's body, but Zhānyuàn's figure directly dissipated.

What Jiang Yun struck was just an illusion.

...behind Jiang Yun, Zhan Yuan's voice followed.

Although I don't know why you're able to borrow this power, I've always been curious about the original owner of this power and very much want to fight him.

"Unexpectedly, in that world, this wish I was unable to fulfill is now realized."

As soon as his voice fell, Jiang Yun immediately felt a powerful force surge up behind him.

And this power, even with the current state of my Annihilation Demon Body, I could still feel a heavy pressure covering me. It made my body feel like it was stuck in a swamp, making every step difficult.

Of course, he also couldn't escape Jian Yuan's attack.

"Bang!"

Zhan Yuan's strike landed heavily on Jiang Yun's back, causing him to stumble forward and crash straight past the boundless Soulfire.

After standing firm, Jiang Yun turned around and looked at Zhan Yuan trapped inside the soul fire. His eyes burst with immense fighting spirit.

Although he was hit, and although Gingercloud was astonished by the true strength of Zham Yan, this did not make Gingercloud afraid. Instead, he was very eager to fight Zham Yan.

This yearning, besides the longing within Jiang Yun himself, seemed to also contain the aspirations imbued by the borrowed power he possessed.

It seems, this power, also wishes to find a worthy opponent!

Jiang Yun and Zhan Yuan, separated by the soul fire, faced each other in battle. They stared at each other, their eyes filled with intense fighting spirit.

A moment later, Zhan Yuan smiled and said, "Although you are indeed very strong now, it doesn't mean you are invincible in the world!"

Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "You just said that you wanted to challenge the original owner of this power"

With a smirk spreading across her face, Zhan said, "It seems you know nothing about what's happening in our world."

"That power would be wasted on you. Instead, let me take your soul and claim that power for myself!"

Then you will know everything you want to know!

As the voice of Zhan Yuan fell, Jiang Yun suddenly took a step back and said: "Come on, I let you take my soul!"

Jiang Yun's actions and words caused the smile on Zhan Yuan's face to slowly fade, replaced by a sigh. "I didn't expect it," he said, "I underestimated you. You found out so quickly!"

"Alright, my soulfire chains have been broken, but I'm still unable to leave this area covered in soulfire. So, if you don't want to fight me, you can turn around and leave now."

After finishing his words, Zhan Yuan actually ignored Jiang Yun and walked toward his original seat.

Looking at Zhan Yuan's retreating figure, Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed into slits, and his mind raced with thoughts.

Zhan Yuan punched himself out of the Soulfire's coverage area. If it were me, I would definitely capitalize on the opportunity and pursue him relentlessly. However, Zhan Yuan stopped and even talked to me so much.

This proves that he should still be unable to leave the area covered by the Wúdìnghóu.

Although Jian Yuan admitted it personally and even let himself leave, I still feel something is off!

"What's wrong"

Just as Jiang Yun was lost in thought, the voice of the young soul suddenly rang out in his mind: “Actually, he doesn’t want to fight you right now!”

Ginger Cloud's heart skipped a beat. "Why"

Then the young soul continued, "When you saw that passage before, you actually said so yourself."

Jiang Yun frowned and said, "What did I say"

"You said that although the sacred objects of the three major clans were suppressing them in the passage, there would always be some fish that slipped through the net and were sent into this Nine Colors Realm."

"Then, why don't you think about it It's been so many years, what about those fish that got away"

Upon hearing this, Ginger Cloud's expression instantly stiffened, and a sudden realization dawned upon him.

Indeed, I have always overlooked this issue!

The Nine Realms, at its inception, was used solely to imprison the first batch of demonic beasts that entered this realm.

After knowing the existence of the passage, the Nine Clans not only placed the most aggressive artifacts of the Three Sacred Tribes within the passage to suppress it; outside the passage, they used Mirage as a bridge to connect with the Nine-Colored Realm, and furthermore, continued to reinforce this prison.

The goal is to send those escaped monsters back to prison and keep them locked up forever.

But now, after so many years, besides Zhan Yuan and Wei Jiu's combined eight demonic beasts, he has not seen any other demonic beasts.

Then, what about those monsters

As this thought occurred to him, and seeing Jian Yuan's retreating figure, Jiang Yun also remembered that the first time he saw Jian Yuan with the power of the stele, he had noticed a wisp of black air emanating from beneath him.

"That must be where those escaped monsters are being held!"

Although Zhan Yuan has gained some freedom now, he is still unable to cross the Wudeng Hunhuo because it not only imprisons him but also those escaped demonic beasts.

Therefore, Zhan Yuan now wishes I would leave immediately so that he can focus on completely shattering the Wudeng Soulfire and release all the remaining demonic beasts.

By that time, even if I borrowed the strength of three beings, I wouldn't be able to withstand the countless demonic beasts!

After figuring everything out, Ginger Cloud could only feel a chill run down her spine.

When the Soul Race set up the Undying Soulfire back then, they definitely left their divine consciousness within it. However, since they didn't notice it themselves, it must have been destroyed by Zhan Yuan.

Thanks to the predecessors of Yaoshén who left behind this young soul, otherwise, if anyone else came in, they probably wouldn't have guessed Zhan Yuan's true purpose.

"Zhan Yuan, our battle is not yet over!"

As Jiang Yun spoke, he also abruptly stepped forward, re-entering the boundless soul fire. Without hesitation, he raised his fist and smashed it into Zhan Yuan's back!
