Yun Che only discovered that the entire sect knew about what exactly had happened at the Devil Sword Conference after he had returned to Frozen Cloud Asgard… Furthermore, they were not the only ones who knew. In fact, the entire Profound Sky Continent now knew about what had happened at the Devil Sword Conference. Even the engagement ceremony that was being held for him and Princess Snow was something that had been announced to the entire Profound Sky Continent… Furthermore, this announcement carried such weight and prestige that it was completely unprecedented in the Profound Sky Continent. This led the nobility of the Seven Nations and the other powers to mobilize all their manpower to feverishly prepare for the event, regardless of whether they received an invitation or not. The only thing they feared was that they might be even the slightest bit negligent.
This event created such a huge impact in the Profound Sky Continent that it was practically equivalent to the Illusory Demon Realm after his impending marriage to the Little Demon Empress had been announced—and this was merely an engagement ceremony at that.
However, Yun Che was not the least bit surprised when he heard the news. Because in a world where power was king and the Four Great Sacred Grounds were held up as insurmountable existences, anyone would be able to understand what it meant if an existence that could completely suppress the Four Great Sacred Grounds appeared.
It would be this world’s unconditional king!!
An existence that could not be slighted or offended at any cost! An existence that one had to curry favor with and fawn over at all times!
In addition to this, the great powers and the nobility of the other six nations and all of the big sects in the Divine Phoenix Nation itself were historically under the thumb of the Divine Phoenix Sect as well. So this time, they would not allow themselves to show any sign of neglect.
Furthermore, the Divine Phoenix Sect, which was secretly in great peril as well, would definitely not pass up this opportunity. They would spare no effort or cost to make this engagement ceremony as grand as possible so they could build momentum for this event and make it even more well-known. They wanted every single person who lived in the Profound Sky Continent to know about it—With Yun Che’s master around, they had a huge support who had frightened the Four Great Sacred Grounds into complete silence. They no longer needed to be constantly worried about whether the death of the Phoenix God would be leaked to the world.
Yun Che first examined the profound strength of the Frozen Cloud disciples one by one in order to confirm that there were no negative side-effects left behind by the Overlord Pellets. After he was finished with that, he began to concentrate fully on his recovery.
In Frozen Cloud Asgard’s environment, his injuries, profound strength and his Phoenix and Golden Crow blood were recovering at a fast rate. However, Jasmine could tell with a single glance that he had not yet been able to enter a state of true focus.
“What nonsense are you thinking about now? Could it be that you’re afraid that someone will suddenly descend from the heavens and attack you?”
Jasmine said as she suddenly appeared, catching Yun Che unawares.
Yun Che opened his eyes and hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, “Jasmine, your current power vastly exceeds the power that your soul body had, correct? So it should also be possible for you to easily find where Little Fairy is currently, right?”
“…” Jasmine calmly averted her staring eyes away from Yun Che as she spoke in an apathetic voice, “I said before that my current power is not even one-tenth of my full power. Chu Yuechan’s profound energy aura is too weak and there are far too many living creatures on the Profound Sky Continent. Given my current state, I will not be able to differentiate her aura from all the others so I can find her… at least, I will need to wait until I recover about half of my power.”
“…Oh,” Yun Che did not continue any further, he merely gave a simple grunt of assent.
Jasmine did not let Yun Che see the look in her eyes, so she also did not see the change that occurred in his eyes.
Yun Che had always remembered that Jasmine had initially said that as long as the devilish poison was purged from her body, she could easily divine Chu Yuechan’s location… Furthermore, she was very clearly referring to the power of her soul body at that time.
But after the devilish poison had been cleansed, Jasmine, who was able to use the power of her soul body at will, said that she had overestimated her power once she gave it a shot and that she did not have the ability to find her. She also said that she would be able to do so once her body was reconstituted.
But now that she had reconstituted her body, she once again said that she needed at least half of her power to do so…
He did not call her on this, he did not dare. Instead, he used the greatest determination he could muster to force himself to believe that Jasmine really did not have the power to do so at the moment… If he did not call her on it, he could still strive to hold on to that beautiful hope. Once he did call her on it, it was possible… that the dream would be completely shattered.
As the person who understood Yun Che the best, how could Jasmine not sense what Yun Che was thinking? For the past few years, Yun Che’s greatest desire was to find Chu Yuechan. But a full seven days had passed since Jasmine had reconstituted her body and during these past seven days, Yun Che had not once taken the initiative to ask her to use her current power to find Chu Yuechan… so it was clear that he had sensed it as well.
Jasmine’s heart felt strangely heavy and this heavy feeling made her feel like it was hard to even breathe. She took a small breather before speaking in a relaxed voice, “Even though I still am not able to locate a person amongst billions of living creatures, I will still be able to easily lock on to the location of the Azure Cloud Continent.”
“So it might just be possible for me to directly find the place that you went to previously under the power of the remnants of the Evil God’s soul… If I remember correctly, it was a place called the Country of Supwake in the Azure Cloud Continent. To be specific, it is a place in the Country of Supwake called the Grandwake Mountain.”
“…” Yun Che gave a faint nod of his head. Jasmine had recalled it perfectly. The place that he had visited the last time when he and Xia Qingyue had entered that “dreamscape” was indeed under the Grandwake Mountain in the Country of Supwake… Su Ling’er was the daughter of the sect master of the Grandwake Sect, Su Hengshan.
Jasmine did not finish her sentence. Instead she closed her eyes and her incomparably strong sense instantly spread out as it enveloped this huge world with a strength that Yun Che would not be able to comprehend… fifty thousand kilometers… several hundred thousand kilometers… five hundred thousand kilometers… several million kilometers.
Right now, she would find out the location of the Azure Cloud Continent and also provide some “comfort” to Yun Che.
Jasmine’s consciousness swept across the huge ocean before finally coming into contact with another continent that was located on this planet and was not the Illusory Demon Realm or the Profound Sky Continent.
When it came to their proportions, the Illusory Demon Realm was bigger than the Profound Sky Continent, whereas this continent was smaller than the Profound Sky Continent. As for the elemental laws, laws of nature and laws of order… she especially remembered them as they had aroused her suspicions the last time around and they were exactly the same as the laws she had sensed all those years ago.
Azure Cloud Continent!!
Its distance from the Profound Sky Continent far exceeded Jasmine’s expectations. It was also no wonder that nearly no records of the Azure Cloud Continent could be found on the Profound Sky Continent.
Jasmine did not withdraw her sense once she had found the Azure Cloud Continent’s location. Instead she focused her sense on this continent because she had said that she wanted to find the location of the Grandwake Mountain in the Country of Supwake. Yun Che had always desired to go to the Azure Cloud Conti
nent and Su Ling’er, who as if in a fantasy seemed to still be alive in this world, this was the only reason for his desire.
Time silently flowed by. Yun Che could not feel any profound energy flowing from Jasmine’s body and he did not dare to disturb her while she was in an extremely focused state.
Fifteen minutes passed by and Yun Che’s eyes were fixed on Jasmine… At this moment, he suddenly saw Jasmine’s body shudder as her eyes flew open. Within those enlarged pupils, he saw to his astonishment a deep shock…
And fear!!
“What happened?” Yun Che asked in an urgent and shocked voice. He was not mistaken, he had clearly seen the shock and fear in Jasmine’s eyes… But what in this world could cause Jasmine to feel fear!?
“…” Jasmine remained silent for a long time, her small bosom heaving violently. She finally sucked in a long breath after a long period of time had passed before speaking in an incredibly somber voice, “Yun Che, you told me before that you had ended your life in the Azure Cloud Continent by jumping off a place called ‘Cloud’s End Cliff’, correct!?”
“Yes.” Yun Che replied as he nodded his head in a stupefied manner, “Why are you asking though?”
“Where is this ‘Cloud’s End Cliff’ located in the Azure Cloud Continent!?” Jasmine’s voice was still somber and grave as she spoke, “Is it located somewhere to north-east of the continent?”
chinachu Notice
:
I know I stated that I was going to China with mommychu to visit grannychu and was hoping to return sometime June or so, but mommychu struck again, pushing our flight to June 1st. My trip to China is also now extended from June to the middle of July. Due to this trip, the planned double daily month releases for MEN will now be even more delayed. They WILL still come out after my trip though! Any regular chapters for every one of our series will still be coming out when I’m there (MEN 7, ATG 7, SR *TBD by Patreon*). I will try my best to get them out according to schedule, but if any chapters are missed due to chinachu problems, all of them will be made up when I get home.
I know some people do not read the chapter posts in their haste to read the chapter so I’ll be leaving this message at the bottom of each chapter as a reminder!
Chapter 818: Death God’s Graveyard
“Yes, Cloud’s End Cliff is located in the Mythical Abode Mountain Range north-east of the Azure Cloud Continent. The Mythical Abode Mountain Range is located at the border between the Country of Supwake and the Southern Sky Nation. Supwake is to the north and Southern Sky is to the south.”
Yun Che still held clear memories of his life in the Azure Cloud Continent. After all, he had only left that place seven years ago.
“Jasmine, what happened? Why did you suddenly ask me about Cloud’s End Cliff?” Yun Che asked with furrowed brows. Over the intervening years, he had told Jasmine bits and pieces of what had happened to him in the Azure Cloud Continent. He also told her that he had been chased by countless huge sects within the Azure Cloud Continent to Cloud’s End Cliff. As he was not content to sit there and be killed, he forced himself to swallow the Sky Poison Pearl before jumping off Cloud’s End Cliff to his death.
He was not puzzled as to why Jasmine would mention the name “Cloud’s End Cliff,” because he had told Jasmine before that Cloud’s End Cliff was the highest and most treacherous cliff in the entire Azure Cloud Continent. Jasmine’s sense had definitely discovered the tallest cliff in all of Azure Cloud Continent so the three words “Cloud’s End Cliff” would naturally come to mind. But what had grabbed his attention was the look in Jasmine’s eyes when they had sprung open.
“…The aura that place was giving off was rather strange,” Jasmine said in a low voice.
“Strange?”
Jasmine turned around, her furrowed brows not relaxing in the slightest, “Tell me in detail everything you know about Cloud’s End Cliff.”
Yun Che chewed on it for a while before replying, “Cloud’s End Cliff is the most dangerous of the Four Deadly Regions. Once you fell into it, your death was assured. Everyone who had attempted to explore Cloud’s End Cliff did not live to tell the tale, no matter how strong the individual was. So, Cloud’s End Cliff was also known as the Death God’s cemetery. Its notoriety was known by everyone who lived in the Azure Cloud Continent and very few people would even go near that area. When I had been forced into that desperate situation all those years ago, I had escaped to Cloud’s End Cliff with the resolve to die.”
“That is also to say that no one has ever seen what the bottom of Cloud’s End Cliff looks like?”
“Nobody ever has.” Yun Che said as he nodded his head in affirmation, “This is also why Cloud’s End Cliff is known as the Death God’s Graveyard. According to common logic, once someone reaches the Emperor or Tyrant Profound Realm, even if it was a fathomless abyss, they should still be able to scale it by traveling down the side of the cliff’s wall until they reach the bottom. Furthermore, once you reach the level of a Monarch, you can simply jump down and there isn’t a chance that you will fall to your death. But in the history of the Azure Cloud Continent, many strong individuals have attempted to find out what is at the bottom of Cloud’s End Cliff and there were no lack of Thrones or Overlords among these participants. But the moment they embarked on their expedition, not a single one returned alive. After that, there were even three Monarchs who attempted to scale the walls of the cliff and reach the bottom, but they were never heard from again.”
“From that time onward, no one dared to try to search the depths of Cloud’s End Cliff.”
Jasmine, “…”
“What’s wrong?” Yun Che asked once again.
Jasmine did not reply him but she asked her own question in a low voice instead, “After you jumped off the edge of Cloud’s End Cliff all those years ago, did you notice anything strange? In other words, did you happen to see what the bottom of Cloud’s End Cliff looked like in that moment?”
“…” Even though it had not left any impression, Yun Che tried his best to recall something. In the end, he shook his head and said, “Not at all, I had lost consciousness as I was falling and my eyes were closed even before I had lost consciousness. When I woke up after that, I had once again returned to the Profound Sky Continent.”
“…” Jasmine descended into silence once more. After that, her eyes shone with suspicion as she said, “It looks like I have no choice but to personally pay that place a visit.”
“You want to go… to Cloud’s End Cliff?” Yun Che asked in a shocked voice.
Jasmine had already made her decision, “The aura being given off by that place is definitely abnormal, so I need to go and take a look. You don’t need to ask me any more questions right now. After I have paid that place a visit, I will naturally return and tell you about it.”
Before Yun Che even had a chance to reply, a red light flashed before his eyes and Jasmine’s figure had disappeared from his sight.
Icy winds blew gustily in the air above the Snow Region of Extreme Ice. Jasmine, who was wrapped up in the snowy winds, had a grim expression on her face. When she had initially arrived on this planet, the only impression it had given her was that it was an extremely low-level and inferior world. If not for the fragments of memories in the Evil God’s Indestructible Blood that stated that the Evil God’s Seeds had fallen on this planet, she would never have condescended to visit this place.
But not long after she had arrived, the devilish poison on her body violently acted up and both her body and soul were nearly destroyed… it was then that she met Yun Che.
After that, as she spent more and more time on this world, she began to realize that this world was far less simple than she had initially thought.
This was a world that was created by the Evil God… It contained the legacies and inheritances of many gods… The Sky Poison Pearl and Mirror of Samsara, two of the Heavenly Profound Treasures, were on this planet as well… The Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign… and even the Evil Infant�
��s Wheel of Myriad Tribulations were sealed in this world.
Even if the other facts were disregarded, three of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures had been found on this planet. Just this fact alone would cause all the God Realms to stumble over themselves from this world-shaking shock.
Furthermore, when she was suddenly inspired to delve further into the Azure Cloud Continent, she discovered an extremely strange aura… The shock it gave her was no less than the shock she experienced when she realized that the Profound Sky Continent was hiding a primordial true devil, the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign.
“The distance is too far, so it looks like I’ll need to expend some energy this time.”
Jasmine muttered to herself in a low voice as a cluster of red light gathered on the tip of her finger before she thrust that finger forward.
A soft ring filled the air as the red light that flashed through the sky cut open a neat and flat rift in space. Jasmine walked into this rift as the space instantly changed. Once she had emerged from the spatial rift, she was already above a dark blue ocean… which was five hundred thousand kilometers away from the Snowy Region of Extreme Ice.
Jasmine’s finger flashed forward again as that red glow sprang forth once again and a second spatial rift appeared before her. Jasmine silently entered it and the moment she appeared again, she had once more traversed five hundred thousand kilometers.
She made three consecutive spatial rifts in this manner. After crossing a distance that would be unfathomable by the profound practitioners of the Profound Sky Continent seven times, Jasmine no longer saw the blue ocean in front of her. Instead, she saw a gloomy mountain range that seemed to extend into the very heavens.
The mountain range was huge but there were very few profound beasts and there was very little life in the area. Jasmine could not see a single human figure even though she looked into the distance.
Jasmine’s eyes swept across her surroundings before she looked down and muttered in a low voice, “Cloud’s… End… Cliff…”
