The river was torrential. They were soon separated after jumping into it, losing control of their bodies. Water kept pouring into their mouths and noses.

“This is bad. The demons are following us!”

That was the worst thing. Those demons were also jumping from the coffin into the water.

Most of the demons didn’t know how to swim, but they couldn’t drown, either. When they made it onto the bank and woke up, they would go on doing harm to people.

Those who could fly certainly wouldn’t let the human beings in the water off easily. They tried to prey on those people. However, the torrential water helped them and saved them from the demons’ attack this time.

Jiang Chen was pulling Meng Hao with one hand and Wen Xin with the other. At the same time, he was looking back at the demons behind them.

“Watch out!” Wen Xin suddenly shouted.

Jiang Chen turned his head and saw a giant rock in the water ahead of them.

“Go!” Jiang Chen pushed Meng Hao and Wen Xin away and took out the Redcloud Sword to aim at the rock.

Taken by the torrent, he crashed into the rock like a chariot. The rock immediately exploded. However, he also paid the price and was injured.

Jiang Chen felt a huge pain in his chest and blacked out. The Redcloud Sword was carried away by the water. He also disappeared from the surface of the river.

“Jiang Chen!” Wen Xin and Meng Hao were worried, but they couldn’t do anything to help, only praying for him silently.

Jiang Chen felt dizzy. He couldn’t even breathe and almost drowned in the water. His body was whirling. His life was hanging by a thread.

Unfortunately, he hit a demon at this moment and fainted instantly.

When he woke up, he found himself lying in a soft bed.

The sun, which he hadn’t seen for a long time, was shining through the window. Jiang Chen was delighted with the warmth and the brightness of the sunbeam. He had been staying in the dark for too long.

“Young lord!”

He heard Chu Luo’s pleasant voice coming from beside the bed.

Jiang Chen shook his head. He vaguely remembered he had been saved by her after he washed ashore, and Wen Xin and Meng Hao had taken him back to the Vermillion Bird City.

But these memories were vague and incomplete.

“How long have I been lying here?” Jiang Chen asked.

“Three days.”

“Not bad.” Jiang Chen felt lucky. Then something occurred to him and he asked, “My sword! Did you see my sword?”

“It’s here. My apprentice sisters and I found it on the river bank.” Chu Luo took the Redcloud Sword out.

Then he learned from Chu Luo that they had been driven by the water to a plain on the other side of the mine.

News regarding the mine and the imperial mausoleum had spread throughout the whole Fire Field. It attracted powerful people of all forces there.

Those in the Gathering Yuan State might have been afraid of the demons and traps in the imperial mausoleum, but those were a piece of cake for powerful people. The treasure in the imperial mausoleum beckoned to them, especially the stone coffins in the Supreme Underground Palace.

However, the entrance couldn’t be found anymore. It was even more difficult if they tried to find the exit through the subterranean river.

They would have no way to enter the imperial mausoleum, unless they dug through the whole mountain.

In fact, some people really did that. A powerful man in the Reaching Heaven State was eager to get the treasure, so he exerted his remarkable power in the pit. He almost collapsed the whole mountain without finding anything.

But with the ability of those in the Reaching Heaven State, they would find the mausoleum sooner or later. It was only a matter of time.

At the same time, Gao Chenyi’s story was also being widely discussed.

At first, the people of the Fire Field had refused to believe that Gao Chenyi had played so dirty. He was on the Prince List!

But the four groups that had survived were all telling the same story. They all accused Gao Chenyi of his cruelty and shamelessness.

What’s more, those who had died in the hands of the demons were actually victims of Gao Chenyi. The bad deeds performed by the demons that had fled from the mausoleum also had a direct relationship with Gao Chenyi, since it was him who had opened the cells.

The royal family of the Grand Qi State was publicly condemning the Gaos.

The Gaos kept their silence and hadn’t responded.

Besides, Gao Chenyi had already died in the imperial mausoleum and paid the price for his actions, so no one had really looked for trouble at the Gaos’ door.

People also knew it was Jiang Chen, a disciple of the Natural Law School, who had killed Gao Chenyi, but the Gaos didn’t have the nerve to challenge the Natural Law School.

Not only because Gao Chenyi had deserved his death, but also due to the Natural Law School’s power.

“Did Dorchid go back to the Grand Qi State? And Wen Xin and Meng Hao are out hunting demons?”

“Yes. Those demons that got out are doing evil, but fortunately, there are many practitioners around the Vermillion Bird City. Thousands of demons seemed horrifying in the imperial mausoleum, but in the outside world, they’re just prey,” Chu Luo said.

“Fine.”

In the next few days, Jiang Chen digested the blood bead of the demon lord and recovered from his injury.

Once he fully recovered and enhanced his state to the completed late stage, only one step away from the peak, it would be time for him to go back to practicing in seclusion in order to break through to the Mental Wander State.

In the meantime, he had come to know the advantages of the holy awareness from his experience at the imperial mausoleum, so he spent some time on strengthening his holy awareness.

Wen Xin and Meng Hao came back as soon as they heard Jiang Chen had woken up.

After confirming Jiang Chen was already out of danger, Meng Hao told him excitedly what had happened while he was unconscious.

Demon blood was acquired at a high price in the outside world. Meng Hao had lots of demon blood and sold it to the demon blood shop of the Vermillion Bird City. That was how he made a small fortune.

Meng Hao was afraid it could be robbed, so he put it into Jiang Chen’s mustardseed ring.

Jiang Chen smiled. The others had gained nothing from the imperial mausoleum, but he had obtained the Universal Darkfire Lamp and the general statue, which were used as tools in the mausoleum. To him, they were priceless treasures.

“Even if I’m facing a Mental Wander State, I won’t be afraid of him if I have the Universal Darkfire Lamp and the general statue!” Jiang Chen thought to himself confidently.

However, one shouldn’t count their eggs before they hatch.

Jiang Chen didn’t know a guy in the Mental Wander State had come to the Vermillion Bird City to kill him!

The following day, Chu Luo told Jiang Chen sadly, “Young lord, our group is going back to the Isle of Sky.”

“All right. Go back. The Fire Field isn’t big. We’ll see each other again,” Jiang Chen said.

“Young lord, I see you’ve been worrying about enhancing your state to the Mental Wander State these days. Chu Luo’s martial arts master said one should retain some strength when they felt it was time to break through their state. You have to be well-grounded. Otherwise, it won’t do any good to your future practice,” Chu Luo said.

“Yeah, I know. Don’t worry about it,” Jiang Chen answered her thoughtlessly. This was a problem with martial arts methods. Since he was practicing sky-level methods, he didn’t have to pay it any mind.

“But, young lord, I know a way to make the best out of the situation for us both. If I practice Dedicating Jade Method and then...” Chu Luo lowered her head shyly.

Jiang Chen was surprised. He didn’t know how to reply to her.

Dedicating Jade Method was a secret method that borrowed feminine force to strengthen male health. Through sex, the woman dedicated her essence yuan to the man so that his state would be greatly enhanced.

The benefits he could get from this secret method were far more than panaceas, demon blood, or any other treasure.

“My apprentice sisters are willing to do it, too,” Chu Luo added.

“This kind of low-level method will cause you lasting harm. If you’re stuck in the Gathering Yuan State, how will you help me in the future?” Jiang Chen hesitated for a while and declined her gently.

“But young lord, you didn’t accept my panacea. Nor did you accept my help. Are you giving us the cold shoulder?” Chu Luo was sad that Jiang Chen had refused her. Tears were beading on her cheeks.

Jiang Chen scratched his head and said, “No, it’s not like that. It’s because your method isn’t good enough. Let’s do it this way. I’ll teach you a high-class method of the same type which will help your practice. In the future, even if we practice through sex in the future, it’ll benefit both of us.”

Jiang Chen had no other choice but to lie to her.
