I Suggest You Cut Your Own Throat Now

"Finally out."

Que Jinling looked back at the crimson earth behind her, her heart still trembling with lingering fear.

The crimson ground resembled chunks of writhing flesh. Rivers of rushing blood, like swimming flood dragons, divided the land while making the entire expanse seem even more sinister and terrifying.

Ferocious beasts of every shape and form wandered and slaughtered one another amid the land and its rivers.

"What lies ahead is the real trial for us."

Jiang Chuan gazed into the distance, his brows slightly furrowed.

Golden flames surged from the seawater like magma from an erupting volcano, burning fiercely.

Faintly visible were towering mountains, magnificent palaces, sprawling medicinal fields, and countless other strange sights drifting ceaselessly amid the flames.

Que Jinling's eyes brimmed with curiosity and eagerness.

"Is this a spatial turbulence? I wonder whether we can obtain opportunities from it as the cultivators in the legends did."

During the Human-Demon War, the fighting had raged until the great sun fell from the heavens, and the ferocious battle had shattered the void.

Many sects and blessed grottoes that had originally existed here were blasted into the boundless void.

Throughout Qingyuan Realm's history, quite a few cultivators had come to Sunfall Sea, mistakenly entered spatial turbulences, and entered ancient ruins. They obtained inheritances and treasures, rose to prominence, and became mighty figures of their generation.

Of course, even more cultivators were swept into spatial turbulences and died without even leaving intact corpses behind.

"I often contemplate the changes of fate and observe the workings of the Heavenly Dao. I imagine some opportunities should come knocking on our door," Jiang Chuan said solemnly.

Well, if he failed to obtain an opportunity, he would blame Jiang Daode and Dragon Transformation Venerable.

Boom!

A tremendous sound shook the heavens.

It was as though an ancient demon god had awakened from its slumber and let out a roar at the sky.

Under Jiang Chuan's gaze, a pitch-black mountain shot out from the spatial turbulence like a meteor, tearing through the void.

Its direction was precisely where Jiang Chuan stood!

Que Jinling's almond eyes widened, her pretty face full of astonishment.

"An opportunity really came?!"

Jiang Chuan was somewhat stunned as well.

"I only said it casually. An opportunity really came? Could I truly be the child of destiny?"

At the same time, cultivators riding swords or transforming into rainbows flew toward Jiang Chuan's location.

"Another ancient ruin has emerged!"

"No ruins have emerged for a hundred years. We absolutely cannot miss this one."

"The ruin that emerged a century ago was taken by an elder of Ziwei Star City. Hopefully, no major force disrupts things this time."

"I came to Sunfall Sea to try my luck at Kun Tian Immortal Mansion, yet I encountered an ancient ruin emerging! Heaven is truly helping me!"

Crack! Crack! Crack!

As the mountain gradually approached Qingyuan Realm, cracks stretching for dozens of miles emerged in the void.

From afar, the entire sky resembled a shattered silver mirror, covered in cracks.

Jiang Chuan also saw the mountain's full appearance clearly.

Not a blade of grass grew upon the pitch-black mountain. It was covered in corpses.

The corpses varied in size. There were divine birds over a hundred zhang long, flood dragons covered in grim scales, and ethereal human cultivators.

Through those corpses, Jiang Chuan could sense the brutality of the Human-Demon War of old.

"My act of helping Que Jinling infiltrate Bamboo Immortal Island can already be called being a Human Traitor. Luckily, this is a simulation. Otherwise, everyone would be shouting and beating me."

Just as Jiang Chuan was pondering in secret, the demon cultivator seated atop the mountain peak, with golden horns upon his head and an eerie face, abruptly opened his eyes.

His blood-red eyes were like two blood suns.

In an instant, they illuminated the heavens. A chilling, terrifying killing intent swept across heaven and earth.

"Kill! All Future Buddha Successors must die!"

"Damn it! How is this an opportunity? This is clearly a death warrant!"

Jiang Chuan's scalp went numb.

The Future Star Sutra he cultivated had been created by Future Star Venerable Buddha.

And Future Star Venerable Buddha was the future leader of the Buddhist sect personally appointed by World Immeasurable Venerable Buddha, the leader of Buddhism.

Therefore, Jiang Chuan was a genuine Future Buddha Successor.

"Run!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Chuan grabbed Que Jinling and prepared to flee.

Boom!

The demon cultivator atop the mountain reached out toward Jiang Chuan.

His enormous hand was like rolling dark clouds, blotting out the sky as it grabbed toward Jiang Chuan and the many cultivators awaiting the emergence of an opportunity.

"An ancient demon with only a lingering remnant thought left dares to act so savagely?"

A delicate voice came from a female cultivator in pink robes, whose face was bewitchingly beautiful.

The next moment, a purple treasure pearl flew from the female cultivator's hand.

Like a purple Immortal Moon, the pearl rose into the sky and met the giant hand.

Rumble!

The giant hand exploded, turning into vast demon power that swept in all directions.

"I knew it. Among the cultivators daring to come to Sunfall Sea in search of opportunities, there had to be experts," Jiang Chuan thought, secretly letting out a breath of relief.

"I did not expect Fellow Daoist Jiang Lan to be here as well. It seems this ruin will be claimed by the Mortal World Demonic Sect," said an old man in a rain cape.

Jiang Lan covered her mouth and smiled. "Everyone may rely on their own abilities. But there are no fellow Daoists from Bodhi Temple here. Why did this old demon say he wanted to kill Future Buddha Successors?"

"It is not strange for the remnant thought of a dead demon to be mentally deranged," the old man in the rain cape said.

"You dare obstruct me? You are courting death!"

The demon cultivator atop the mountain spoke again, his voice like metal scraping against metal, unbearably harsh.

"Go!"

Jiang Chuan grabbed Que Jinling and charged straight toward Sunfall Sea.

Que Jinling looked confused. "Jiang Chuan, aren't we fighting for the opportunity?"

"I suggest you cut your own throat now. At least then you can leave behind an intact corpse," Jiang Chuan said irritably.

Que Jinling: "."

I'm your future Dao companion, after all.

Can't you speak a little more politely?

Jiang Chuan had heard Jiang Lan of the Mortal World Demonic Sect mentioned before. She was a bona fide sixth-realm expert.

He and Que Jinling were both third-realm cultivators. Even combined, they were not enough for Jiang Lan to swat with one hand.

Not to mention the old man in the rain cape and the many other cultivators, as well as the ancient demon seated atop the mountain who wanted to kill him.

If he truly stayed behind, Jiang Chuan felt that he would be dead beyond all hope!

You brought Que Jinling and fled into Sunfall Sea.

The mountain crashed from the spatial turbulence into Qingyuan Realm. The demon cultivator, left with only unwilling resentment, began a fierce battle with the many cultivators.

The violent battle made the heavens tremble chaotically and stirred towering waves within Sunfall Sea.

The golden sun flames scattered and surged in every direction.

You and Que Jinling were the first to be caught up in them, finding yourselves in constant peril for a time.

Fortunately, you used Darkness Space to continuously devour the golden sun flames, preserving both your life and Que Jinling's.

Relying on Shen Gongming's map, you brought Que Jinling to a sea region filled with islands scattered like stars across a board.

"The Bone Remolding Pill should be here," Que Jinling said excitedly.

Yet Jiang Chuan wore a grave expression. "Our trouble has arrived."

"Trouble? What—"

Before Que Jinling could finish speaking, she saw a golden rainbow pierce through the golden sun flames and shoot toward them.

Sensing that familiar aura, Que Jinling knew that the demon cultivator atop the mountain had likely controlled an incarnation to pursue and kill them.

"This incarnation is not strong. At most, it has just entered the fourth realm. We should be able to handle it."

"No. I'll do this myself."

A spark of battle intent appeared in Jiang Chuan's eyes. "I'm also curious now. Just how strong am I?"

Comprehending numerous sect-defining scriptures and divine abilities such as the Future Star Sutra, the Supreme Yang Limitless Body, and the Void Devouring Scripture had caused Jiang Chuan's strength to soar.

He would use the ancient demon's incarnation to test exactly how strong he had become.
