Chapter 1123: Chapter 1123: Hope

Jiang Fan suddenly remembered.

Previously, the Giant King had said that Shan Feng stole something from the Ancient Giants.

"Please speak clearly, Village Chief."

Ming Ye’s eyes gleamed as he said:

"My grandson was once captured by the Ancient Giants and thrown into the Ancient Sky Pit."

"When normal Hell Creatures go in, they either transform into Ancient Giants if successful or dissolve into blood if they fail."

Jiang Fan looked at Shan Feng in surprise, who seemed completely fine.

How did he remain unharmed?

Ming Ye replied, "This is all because of the battle you Humans had in the Royal Court last time."

"When my grandson went to gather intelligence, he discovered a hidden underground chamber in the ruins of the shattered Royal Court."

"It is suspected to have been left by the citizens of the Heavenly Realm in ancient times."

"After countless years, the chamber still remained intact."

"Inside, there was a crystal emitting a faint holy light."

"It was thanks to this crystal that he was unaffected by the Ancient Sky Pit."

Jiang Fan stroked his chin in thought.

Even so, how does this help the Central Earth?

Ming Ye’s gaze turned profound as he said, "In addition to that..."

"There were more than a dozen others thrown in with my grandson."

"One of them has already transformed into an Ancient Giant."

"However, under the influence of this crystal, he reverted to a Hell Creature!"

What?

Jiang Fan suddenly sat up!

No wonder the Giant King personally pursued Shan Feng.

This thing essentially cuts off the root of the Ancient Giants!

Ming Ye smiled, "If you can make good use of these crystals."

"You can turn at least half of the Ancient Giants back to their original forms!"

"Once they revert to being Hell Creatures, I believe most of them will flee and no longer heed the orders of the Ancient Giants."

"Even those like Elder Defeng, without the huge bodies of Ancient Giants, pose a much less threat."

"At the Nascent Soul Level, you will have a chance to fight."

Jiang Fan’s eyes brightened.

His breathing grew slightly quicker.

But he remained calm, his eyes flickering as he said, "The village chief surely wouldn’t hand it over without a cost."

"What are your terms? Let’s hear them."

Ming Ye laughed heartily, not hiding anything and said:

"I have two conditions."

"First, I hope you can help us find the Connecting Sky Black Pillar."

"I don’t believe in the nonsense that the Connecting Sky Black Pillar is sealed."

"The Central Earth wouldn’t send you to die for no reason."

Jiang Fan nodded slightly, "I can consider that."

He did not reveal that the Connecting Sky Black Pillar was on his back.

This Ming Ye Village Chief is ruthless and cunning.

It’s best to stay cautious until the last moment.

Ming Ye’s eyes lit up.

He knew there was hope for the Connecting Sky Black Pillar.

"Secondly, I hope you can accompany me to the Black Sun Royal Court."

"There, they have taken a holy object from our Black Cloud Village."

Upon hearing this,

Shan Feng’s lips moved, wanting to protest, but was silenced by Ming Ye’s stern gaze.

Jiang Fan frowned, "The place where the Five-Star Giant King resides?"

"You must be joking?"

"If he shows up, we won’t stand a chance to escape."

Even with the Connecting Sky Black Pillar, it might not be possible to escape in time.

Ming Ye clasped his hands, "Please rest assured."

"Our Black Cloud Village still relies on you to seek refuge in the Central Earth."

"We wouldn’t dare to let you fall into a dangerous situation."

"I’ve already scouted. The Five-Star Giant King is not in the Black Sun Royal Court."

"Only a Luck Giant is stationed there."

"As long as we’re cautious, there will be no accidents."

Jiang Fan and Bai Xin briefly explained the disparity in forces and the presence of the Holy Crystal.

Bai Xin nodded, "Let’s make a trip."

"Even if not for the Holy Crystal, we need to personally scout the Black Sun Royal Court’s army."

"Relying solely on their word is insufficient for intelligence gathering."

The Dharma Seal Vajra also said, "If we can obtain the Holy Crystal, we can save countless lives."

"Venturing into the Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave is worth a try."

Gu Xin’er hurriedly said, "I want to go too!"

Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered, "You needn’t go."

"I’ve arranged another important task for you."

He turned to Ming Ye, "Village Chief, we have decided to accompany you to the Black Sun Royal Court."

"But before that, I have another deal I’d like to make with you."

"Before we leave the Southern Heavenly Realm, I hope you and your clansmen can gather as many resources as possible from the Southern Heavenly Realm."

Ming Ye frowned.

Going out is risky, encountering an Ancient Giant means certain death.

He didn’t want to help with this.

Until Jiang Fan took out a thick, black carrot.

It contained an astonishing amount of Yin Qi.

As soon as the carrot appeared, the Asura Clan members of the Black Cloud Village took notice.

It was as if the Human Clan encountered a Spiritual Energy-rich treasure.

Instantly, they emerged from everywhere, surrounding Jiang Fan with yearning in their eyes.

Ming Ye was shocked, "Yin Qi Vegetables?"

His old eyes flickered with excitement, "How many more do you have?"

"I’ll trade with you."

Jiang Fan said, "One carrot for ten tables of these dishes."

Ten tables?

Ming Ye’s mouth twitched, really steep!

But considering the Black Cloud Village soon needed to follow them to the Central Earth Realm, what use was there in keeping local resources?

He immediately ordered, "Did you all hear that?"

"All clansmen prepare, once the Giant King outside leaves, harvest all the spiritual objects within a thousand-mile radius!"

Jiang Fan also instructed Gu Xin’er, "You..."

Gu Xin’er’s eyes already shaped like gold ingots, nodded her head rapidly:

"Mmhmm."

"Leave it to me; just trust me with earning money!"

"I promise I won’t blacken your name."

Hearing this final unnecessary remark, Jiang Fan’s temple throbbed.

This girl, could she have turned into a black market dealer?

She used to be quite well-mannered.

Who corrupted her?

Shaking his head.

He looked up and noticed the Giant King was still squatting above, not leaving.

Jiang Fan smirked and pulled out the blood-stained burlap sack, "Seems unwilling to give up."

"Village Chief, any idea what’s in here?"

Ming Ye looked at the squirming bag with some apprehension, saying:

"It should be the prey captured by this Giant King."

"Judging by the size, it seems like some big bug or snake."

Oh~

Jiang Fan revealed a half-smile.

If it were any other beast, he’d be cautious.

But these two things are precisely the specialty of the big rooster, aren’t they?

He tried lifting the blood-stained bag to his chest.

Sure enough, a fierce heat came from his chest.

The big rooster’s combative nature was successfully ignited!

He leaped to the Black Cloud Village’s edge, shaking the blood-stained bag.

Pretended to open it.

The Stone Giant King’s vertical eyes showed anger, roaring, "Try opening it!"

His face showed this.

But deep in his vertical eyes, a sneer passed.

Inside was a rare poisonous snake capable of killing a Giant King.

When Jiang Fan seized it, his anger was from concern that the Asura Clan might obtain these items and use them against the Ancient Giants.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fan was asking for trouble.

He wanted to open it himself.

The poisonous snake inside was at the Nine Acupoints Level, indeed.

Jiang Fan couldn’t handle it.

If he faced it, he’d be bitten and die of poisoning instantly!
