Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1557: Chapter 1595: The Second Connecting Sky Black Pillar

Battlefield.

Jiang Fan turned all the materials he had obtained into two types of Spirit Pills.

He kept ten for himself and distributed all the rest.

The amount of Heavenly Clothes Divine Water was limited and not enough to treat everyone’s injuries, so only the severely wounded were prioritized.

"Great Wine Sacrifice, how should their bodies be dealt with?"

At this moment, someone asked a question.

Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Fan looked over and discovered that while he was practicing alchemy, the strong individuals from various sects had collected all the Human Clan remains from the battlefield.

As for the sects that were still around, they had their own disciples take care of them.

But the remains of the medium and small sects that were annihilated had no one to manage them.

Jiang Fan walked over, face clouded with grief, and said, "Let me offer them blessings first."

He took out the Prison Suppressing Soul Scripture and recited its obscure and profound scriptures from memory.

One by one, black Sanskrit characters flew out from the scripture book.

From innumerable corpses, fragments of soul spots flew out, and under the guidance of the Sanskrit, they flew into Cangming, entering an unknown realm.

Once the last soul fragment disappeared, Jiang Fan closed the scripture.

He pressed his palms together and silently chanted, "Thank you all for guarding Taicang’s mountains and rivers with your lives. May you live without pain or disaster in your next life, peacefully forever."

Finally, he looked at the countless remains and said, "Great Wine Sacrifice."

"Leave some people here to establish a mausoleum."

"They deserve the eternal tributes of posterity."

Great Wine Sacrifice nodded slightly and said, "Six Paths, Bai Xin, select some injured who can no longer fight from various sects to stay."

"Establish Taicang Mausoleum."

Six-Path Masters and Bai Xin were also severely injured, but fortunately, with the Heavenly Clothes Divine Water’s help, their injuries had recovered.

The two cupped their hands and immediately began organizing personnel.

Jiang Fan then looked up at the Connecting Sky Black Pillar; after hesitating for a moment, he took out the Moon Realm.

Before supporting Hunyuan State, he needed to confirm one last thing.

That is, the battle situation between the Black Sun King and Red Sleeves.

If Red Sleeves was not faring well and could not continue to delay him, then they needed to resolve the Black Sun King themselves.

He immediately wrote on the Moon Realm:

"Red Sleeves, how’s the battle going?"

If the battle between Red Sleeves and the Black Sun King was fierce, she should have no time to respond.

Conversely, if Red Sleeves had slain the Black Sun King, she could quickly send a reply.

Beep beep~

The Moon Realm immediately showed a message.

"Glasses: Did your Taicang State win? Unbelievable!"

Clever as Red Sleeves was, she immediately understood that since Jiang Fan had leisure to inquire about the Heavenly Realm’s situation,

it must signify that the Taicang State’s battle front had stabilized completely, perhaps even with a major victory.

What? Red Sleeves replied so fast?

Jiang Fan’s heart raced, excitement spurting forth instinctively.

Could it be that Red Sleeves killed the Black Sun King?

But then he pondered; if Red Sleeves had succeeded in killing him, she would have already notified through the Moon Realm.

"Take a good name: How are things between you and the Black Sun King?"

He was somewhat puzzled.

The Black Sun King had not descended, obviously delayed.

If Red Sleeves hadn’t killed him, she should still be engaged in fierce combat, why was she so free to reply?

He couldn’t figure out the battle situation between the two.

"Glasses: I haven’t engaged him."

Thud!

Jiang Fan’s heart suddenly stopped, his eyes widening gradually.

He wrote incredulously:

"Take a good name: You didn’t keep the promise?"

"Glasses: I’m at the Black Sun Royal Court, but the Five-Star Giant King isn’t here."

What?

Jiang Fan was horrified!

The Five-Star Giant King had not descended and wasn’t delayed by Red Sleeves?

Where is he?

An immense ominous threat enveloped his heart, making him shiver.

Such a terrifying being, left unchecked for so long?

He quickly looked at the Connecting Sky Black Pillar and decisively took out the Sky Observation Treasure to investigate.

Even with the detection range expanded to the limit, the Connecting Sky Black Pillar showed no trace of the Five-Star Giant King.

Jiang Fan’s expression showed anxiety.

Could the Black Sun King have quietly descended onto the continent already?

Where would he be?

On the continent? At Qingli Mountain? Or has he gone to capture the Qintian Bureau, taking over the State-level Teleportation Array?

His mind was a chaotic mess, forcing himself to take several deep breaths to calm down.

"It shouldn’t be, if the Black Sun King descended, would he watch idly as his Giant King and giants were annihilated without a care?"

"Or is he wary of the Great Wine Sacrifice and descended on Taicang State from an unknown place?"

"But, the only link between Taicang State and the Black Sun Royal Court is this Connecting Sky Black Pillar..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan’s expression suddenly froze.

A huge question that had lingered in his mind for a long time resurfaced.

That is... how did that Two-star Giant King, able to freely shrink and expand, descend into Taicang State?

At that time, the Connecting Sky Black Pillar was in Black Cloud Village.

According to Heavenly Realm’s rules, he couldn’t enter, nor could he descend through the Connecting Sky Black Pillar!

Unless!

There was another Connecting Sky Black Pillar linking to Taicang State!

Realizing this, Jiang Fan’s heart pounded fiercely, cold sweat trickling down his face.

If that’s true, doesn’t it mean there’s another place for giants to descend?

There, at any moment, could... or already might have Ancient Giants descending?

He dared not make a sound.

Without another word, he took out Venerate Xinnie’s Little Black Bottle.

The Remnant Soul of the Hell Beast struggled painfully inside.

Jiang Fan took hold of it and coldly said, "Answer me one question, and I’ll give you peace!"

The tormented Hell Beast craved death long ago.

It glared venomously at Jiang Fan, voice hoarse, "Speak!"

Jiang Fan said coldly, "I want to know, if you weren’t released from the Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion."

"Would Taicang State have no Connecting Sky Black Pillar?"

At this moment, he realized he had overlooked a monumental issue.

That is, the Hell Beast was originally imprisoned in the Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion.

Only through the accidental intrusion by him, Fairy Yun Shang, and Yan Dao’an was the Hell Beast released.

Then it unleashed the Connecting Sky Black Pillar.

But if they hadn’t released the Hell Beast, would there be no Connecting Sky Black Pillar?

Looking over the millennial history, Taicang State’s Ancient Giant descents consistently occurred as expected.

Except for one time when it did not happen.

How did the Ancient Giants ensure their imprisoned Hell Beast in the Lower Realm could timely release the Connecting Sky Black Pillar?

Such as the present Hell Beast, it was once subdued.

Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to unleash the Connecting Sky Black Pillar.

"Hehehe...hahahahaha..."

The Hell Beast laughed, throwing its head back in mocking laughter, wild and unrestrained.

Jiang Fan said coldly, "You don’t want to be tortured any longer, do you?"

The Hell Beast ceased laughing, its face showing a mocking expression, speaking with playfulness:

"Who told you that Taicang State only has one Hell Beast?"

What?

Jiang Fan’s pupils vibrated fiercely.

The whole time, everyone assumed there was only this one Hell Beast!

But only now, did he learn differently from the Hell Beast’s mouth.

This wasn’t true!

Doesn’t this mean another Hell Beast can also release the Connecting Sky Black Pillar?

And that Two-star Giant King that could shrink and expand freely.

Indicating a second Connecting Sky Black Pillar had been released long ago!
