283: Chapter 283 The one who truly understands me is not you.

Jiang Han and Leng Qingqiu flew across the wasteland and stopped outside a desolate forest of scattered stones.

Looking out, hundreds of giant stones stood surrounding the area.

The surroundings were empty, with no Cultivators from other factions having set foot here.

Jiang Han spread out his Divine Sense, sweeping across the entire forest of scattered stones.

His brows furrowed bit by bit.

The System indicated that the world-suppressing pagoda was right here in this forest of scattered stones.

He released his Divine Sense to investigate and indeed captured a wave of extremely powerful Magic Treasure fluctuations.

But strangely.

This aura was erratic; no matter how he searched, he could not lock onto the specific location of the world-suppressing pagoda.

"Didn't find it?" Leng Qingqiu turned her head, looking at Jiang Han.

Jiang Han shook his head.

How could this be?

Jiang Han felt something was amiss.

Just as he was preparing to change direction and continue his investigation, several auras suddenly came from the sky not far away.

"Someone is coming," Jiang Han said.

He backhanded and grabbed Leng Qingqiu's wrist, stepping back two paces.

The Great Void Technique was immediately activated.

Their figures instantly merged into the Void Realm, and along with them, all their auras and Law fluctuations were wiped clean.

A few breaths later.

Several figures landed not far from where Jiang Han had just been standing.

As the light dissipated, several female Cultivators wearing light blue long dresses appeared.

The woman in the lead had a beautiful and refined appearance; it was the Moon God Palace Saintess, Saintess Chu Xinyan.

They had been wandering around the Abyss of Buried Immortals and had encountered the pursuit of several powerful Vicious Beasts along the way.

After a fierce fight, they had fled in panic and hid in this forest of scattered stones.

A Moon God Palace female Disciple put away her long sword, patted her chest, and gasped for breath.

She raised her head and looked around.

"Saintess."

This female Disciple curled her lips and complained, "The Spiritual Qi here is exhausted, and it's so desolate. How does it look like there's any Opportunity here?"

Another Disciple chimed in, "That's right."

"We can't even see a living thing. Let's go elsewhere; let's not waste time here."

Saintess Chu Xinyan raised her hand and shook her head.

"Since we are here, we must at least take a look at the deeper parts."

Saintess Chu Xinyan said, "If an Opportunity were so easy to see and placed out in the open everywhere, could it still be called an Opportunity?"

"Search carefully; perhaps there is some hidden Formation or Restriction."

Saintess Chu Xinyan took the lead and walked towards the depths of the forest of scattered stones.

Those few Moon God Palace female Disciples looked at each other and had no choice but to follow.

Just as Saintess Chu Xinyan and the others were looking around, they suddenly heard a commotion.

All the women turned their heads in unison, looking vigilantly at this person who had suddenly appeared.

Jiang Xun had just run into the forest of scattered stones when he ran head-on into these female Cultivators.

His footsteps faltered.

Looking at the attire of this group of female Cultivators, he recognized that they were from the Moon God Palace.

Jiang Xun breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The Moon God Palace consisted entirely of female Cultivators, which could be considered a relatively safe faction in this Genius Assembly.

He cleared his throat and put on a friendly expression.

"Greetings, Fairies."

Jiang Xun cupped his hands and took a small step forward, "Do not be nervous."

"My name is Jiang Xun, and I am from the Everlasting Jiang Family."

"I arrived here unintentionally and have no malicious intent."

As soon as the name Jiang Xun was spoken.

Saintess Chu Xinyan's willow-leaf brows immediately furrowed.

She stared at the disheveled young man in front of her.

Jiang Xun?

That Jiang Xun from the Everlasting Jiang Family?

The words Jiang Han had said to her that day at the Moon God Palace instantly flashed through her mind.

Saintess Chu Xinyan looked the person before her up and down.

A person from a dignified Everlasting Family, he really had shamed the face of the Everlasting Family completely.

The disgust in Saintess Chu Xinyan's eyes could not be hidden at all; her face was full of disdain.

Jiang Xun lowered his hands, looking at Saintess Chu Xinyan's face.

He felt it was somewhat inexplicable.

This was his first time seeing this Moon God Palace Saintess; he hadn't provoked or bothered her, so why was this woman looking at him with such eyes?

Jiang Xun felt uncomfortable being stared at.

However, he didn't think much of it; the most important thing right now was to sign in and obtain the Opportunity.

He shouted in his heart.

"System!"

"Sign in for me!"

[Ding!]

[Warning! Sign-in failed!]

[Warning! Unknown power interference detected, unable to obtain rewards!]

The System's prompt echoed in Jiang Xun's mind.

Jiang Xun's body swayed.

Sign-in failed?!

Failed again?!

When he failed at Empress Guqin's tomb, he thought it was just an accident, believing that the trouble Jiang Han had caused had interfered with the System's judgment.

Now in this godforsaken place, except for these few Moon God Palace female Cultivators, there was nothing else at all.

How could it still fail?!

"Is your broken System broken?!"

"I'm working myself to death, and you tell me the sign-in failed?!"

Saintess Chu Xinyan on the opposite side looked at Jiang Xun.

Watching him smile for a moment, then get angry, then have his face twitch, it was like he was having a fit of hysteria.

This person was not only afraid of death, but his brain also didn't seem quite right.

Saintess Chu Xinyan turned around and waved to the Disciples behind her.

"Let's go."

She didn't want to waste another moment on this Jiang Xun, and she especially didn't want to have any connection with him.

Just as Saintess Chu Xinyan had turned around.

Hum!

The entire forest of scattered stones suddenly began to shake.

A vast, primordial aura, as if spanning across endless epochs, shot straight up from beneath the forest of scattered stones!

Under the scouring of this aura, the stone skin on the surface of the surrounding stone pillars, which were dozens of zhang high, began to peel off layer by layer.

Lines of Formation patterns lit up on every single stone pillar.

The powerful Magic Treasure pressure swept towards the surroundings like a landslide or tidal wave.

Saintess Chu Xinyan and the few Moon God Palace Disciples were forced to retreat repeatedly by this pressure, and in the end, they could only circulate their Immortal power to resist with all their might.

Jiang Xun was also shaken back a few steps, but when he felt that Magic Treasure aura, the anger in his eyes instantly dissipated.

Opportunity!

This was definitely a top-tier Opportunity!

In the shadows.

Jiang Han watched this sudden change and connected everything together.

No wonder he had searched for a long time and couldn't find the location of the world-suppressing pagoda; it seemed it was because this world-suppressing pagoda simply wasn't meant to appear at this time.

It was waiting.

It was waiting for Jiang Xun, the Child of Destiny, to step into this forest of scattered stones, and only then did this Magic Treasure hidden in the Void Realm reveal its true traces!

Jiang Han looked at Jiang Xun in the center of the pressure.

He remembered another prompt from the System.

Previously, the panel had clearly stated that Saintess Chu Xinyan would be besieged and killed, and Jiang Xun would step forward to save the damsel in distress, from which point the two would travel together.

Only then would there be the subsequent events where Saintess Chu Xinyan would be attracted to Jiang Xun, offer him the great Opportunity with both hands, and finally even use her own Primordial Yin to help him complete his Physique.

Jiang Han looked at the current scene.

These people from the Moon God Palace.

Jiang Xun.

The top-grade Magic Treasure that had appeared.

Isn't this just a ready-made script?

As long as someone is attracted by the commotion of this Magic Treasure appearing, and they see these people, it will inevitably lead to a fight for it.

That so-called siege, presumably, happens at this time.

Leng Qingqiu stood beside Jiang Han.

She watched Jiang Han smiling as he looked at the forest of scattered stones outside, and she couldn't help but chuckle along with him.

She knew Jiang Han too well.

Every time Jiang Han showed this expression, it meant that someone was definitely going to suffer.

Leng Qingqiu stretched out her hand and poked Jiang Han gently on the side of his waist, lowering her voice as she spoke, "Husband."

"What bad idea are you cooking up again?"

Jiang Han took Leng Qingqiu's hand.

"Those who know me, none compare to Sister Qingqiu."
