Chapter 664: High Odds Betting
“Sh*t!” Jiang Feng said speechlessly as he looked at the sky filled with dark clouds.
He did not expect that the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals would come for him in less than half an hour.
As the dark clouds dispersed, several hundred Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals stood on the clouds, staring right at him.
In front of the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals, several monks and Guanyin floated in the air, all staring at him.
‘Damn it, even Guanyin is here! I didn’t expect that they would pay so much attention to me!” Jiang Feng could feel his heart skip a beat when he saw Guanyin.
Guanyin’s power was a Divine Saint, and she could kill him with just her thumb.
Most of the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals were at the peak of Greater Sacred Masters and Heavenly Saint, and they were not someone that he could handle.
Thinking back, Sun Wukong was extremely bold when he took on the Heavenly Palace on Dragonquarry.
While he was facing a troupe of extremely powerful enemies, he was not afraid and he did not listen to Sun Wukong about running away.
Currently, he was at his best and there were plenty of skills that he could use. There was no need to be nervous.
“Shifter Emperor, come with me for a bit!” Guanyin said to Jiang Feng softly as she held her White Jade Vase.
“Why isn’t Tathagata here if he wants to take care of me?” Jiang Feng asked coldly.
“Do you think you are worth his time?” An ugly monk behind Guanyin took a step forward and said coldly.
Jiang Feng glanced at the ugly monk and said, “If Tathagata were to hear that, he would kill you, baldie!”
Guanyin glared at the ugly monk.
His words were indeed problematic.
If Jiang Feng was truly not worth his time, then why did Tathagata attack him on so many occasions? Even this assault of theirs happened because of Tathagata’s orders.
If there were not any special reason, Tathagata would have already attacked him himself.
That was why not only did the ugly monk fail at jeering at Jiang Feng, he was, in truth, sneering at Tathagata.
“Guanyin! You are a good woman! Why are you helping that fake Tathagata?!” Guanyin was just about to say something when Sun Wukong shouted out at her.
‘Guanyin’s a good woman? Tathagata is fake?’ Jiang Feng turned around and looked at Sun Wukong, his expression was one of shock.
Sun Wukong then said in a low voice, “The Dragonquarry is full of intrigue. We can talk about it after you survive this.”
He nodded.
It seemed like Dragonquarry was not as simple as he had thought.
He glanced at Guanyin and the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals that were beginning to surround him, he then smiled. In the next moment, the Demesne of Time appeared from his body and warped the time around him.
“Guanyin, it’s not that I don’t want to go with you, but there are some things that I believe that even you are still unsure of. I will take my leave this time, we’ll see each other again next time!”
When the ugly monk saw what was happening, he roared and rushed toward Jiang Feng, “Stop him!”
Guanyin then took out the willow branch from her White Jade Vase and waved it at him.
In the next moment, plenty of willow branches appeared around him, and they were all trying to entangle him.
He noticed that the willow branches all contained the power of Demesnes. Unfortunately, he could not identify what Demesne they were. They looked like the Demesne of Wood, but it also looked like multiple Demesnes melded together, just like his Chaos Demesne.
The ugly monk and the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals appeared next to Jiang Feng in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, as time around Jiang Feng began to warp, they could not go any closer to him despite standing right next to him.
When Guanyin’s willow branches quickly attacked him, he smiled at Guanyin as a space tunnel appeared next to him, and he immediately jumped in.
After he entered the space tunnel, it slowly closed as he disappeared in front of everyone.
When she saw Jiang Feng disappear, Guanyin closed her eyes. After three seconds, she reopened her eyes and said to everyone, “He is in Uttarakuru!”
***
Uttarakuru, the coldest place in Dragonquarry.
Whoosh!
Jiang Feng was thrown out of the space tunnel as he fell on a snowy plain.
He opened his map and gave it a look before muttering, “Looks like a portion of the map in Dragonquarry was created according to the background and cities in Journey to the West.”
“With my current power level, I won’t be able to stay in Dragonquarry. I guess I have to hide in the Nirvana Auction House and get some helpers!” He said to himself helplessly as he glanced around and then looked at the slowly darkening skies.
He had not been to the Nirvana Auction House recently.
Once he teleported back to the home he bought in Nirvana, a series of knocks on the door came from outside before he could even leave the room.
Bang! Bang!
“Shifter Emperor! I know you’re back! Open the door and let me in now!” It was Bobo’s voice.
Jiang Feng went over and opened the door. The moment he opened it, Bobo then rushed into the room and grabbed his hand excitedly.
He then asked him, “How did you know I’m back? And why are you so excited?”
Bobo then waved the carrot in his hand and said excitedly, “Of course I am excited! Do you know that there is a new bet today? If I can win this bet, I am going to be the richest in the world!”
“What bet?” Jiang Feng asked curiously.
“Can the Shifter Emperor kill Tathagata!”
“Sh*t! What are the odds?!”
“10,000 to 1!”
“How much did you bet?”
“3.5 billion purple pieces all on you able to kill Tathagata!”
“Seriously?!”
“Are you confident?”
“Confidence my ass!”
Bobo trusted him so much to have put down such a huge amount on him!
Tathagata must be killed, but he had to think of a way to increase his power. He could not keep on hiding.
His guess was that Tathagata wanted to suppress his growth by pursuing him so that he could not grow.
As long as he could not grow, Tathagata could do whatever he wanted during the Great Divine-Infernal War.
Bobo pulled Jiang Feng’s hand and said, “Brother, I’m betting everything on you this time.”
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at him and said, “The reason that I came here is to first avoid the pursuit of the Celestial Soldiers and Celestial Generals. The second reason is to look for you. If you are hoping that I would win, then you have to help me escape Tathagata’s pursuit. Otherwise, I can’t strengthen myself. If I can’t strengthen myself, how am I supposed to kill him?”
“True,” Bobo nodded as he munched the carrot. He began to think with his head hung low.
After thinking for a bit, he suddenly thought of something and then said to Jiang Feng as he raised his head, “I know of a place where you can avoid Tathagata’s pursuit, and increase your power!”
“Where?” Jiang Feng asked.
“The Bottomless Pit!” Bobo said.
“Bottomless Pit? There is a Bottomless Pit in Dragonquarry too?” Jiang Feng asked curiously.
“Yes, but the Bottomless Pit has been sealed. All you need to do is to bypass the seal.”
After hearing what Bobo said, Jiang Feng nodded.
He understood what Bobo meant.
He had the Demesne of Time, Law of Chaos, as well as other Demesne Skills. It was simple for him to pass through the seal.
Not to mention that the Bottomless Pit was indeed a great place for him to increase his power.
The last time when he entered the Bottomless Pit, he was yet King Zhou’s match. Instead, King Zhou could easily defeat him. But after he left the Bottomless Pit, he had gained the ability to fight King Zhou head to head.
This time, he was not looking to have the power to fight Tathagata. He only wanted to have the power to resist Guanyin.
