Chapter 243: What

Just as Jiang Chen and Yi Ning dealt with the Crimson Moon Demon.

In the Dragon Race's world, a massive cluster of palaces exhaled a huge aura.

The aura burst through the clouds, as if tearing a gigantic opening in the sky.

A roar echoed from the palaces: "Who is it! Who is targeting our Dragon Race!"

"Why have our Dragon Warriors been suffering so many losses lately!"

"Go investigate what exactly happened on the Ancient Battlefield."

After the roar fell, another voice replied immediately: "As you command, Great King!"

A multitude of Dragon Warriors flew out of the palaces, heading off in one direction.

The Dragon Race's world returned to tranquility, yet that powerful aura lingered.

Soon, the Dragon Warriors who went to investigate rushed back.

Moments later, a command rang out from the palace: "Relay this, in the Upper Space of the Ancient Battlefield, Dragon Warriors, combine to find Jiang Chen and kill him!"

"Also, accelerate the search for the Space-time Portal."

"Dragon Race warriors must not die in vain!"

"I demand the Human Race repay blood with blood!"

The Dragon Race's world was instantly shrouded in murderous intent, and even the space trembled.

The Dragon King's command quickly reached the Ancient Battlefield, and the Dragon Race Professionals in the Upper Space Core Area all received the Dragon King's orders.

On the other side, Succubus Luluna reestablished contact with the Enchantress Demon King.

Luluna's panic had not fully faded from her eyes.

"Demon King Sir, we have failed!" Luluna dared not look up, her voice so light it evoked pity.

The Enchantress Demon King's illusion appeared before Luluna: "This is not your fault; I didn't expect even the Crimson Moon Demon could not defeat him."

"I know you cannot enter the Core Area; go to the deepest part of the Central Area, deliver my orders, and have those guys act to eliminate Jiang Chen."

"Compared to the Primordial Rune, killing Jiang Chen is more important."

"The specific method, you should do it like this..."

The Enchantress Demon King's voice remained melodious and alluring, yet it also harbored immense murderous intent.

Having received the Enchantress Demon King's new command, Luluna sped toward the depths of the Central Area.

The rest of the day passed peacefully.

Neither the Dragon Race nor the Abyss Demon came to trouble Jiang Chen.

The Primordial Rune finally completed its fusion with him.

The red pillar vanished, and Jiang Chen was enveloped entirely by red light.

In the instant the fusion finished, Jiang Chen learned the location of the Primordial Space.

In his mind, a map formed naturally.

The Primordial Space was not in the Upper Layer of the Ancient Battlefield, but in the Lower Layer.

Simultaneously, Jiang Chen's back of the hand tingled slightly, revealing a rune.

"Skill acquired: Strong Soldier."

"Strong Soldier: For 30 seconds, self and summoned entities gain all basic attributes increased by 200%, and all attack damage increased an additional 500%. Cooldown: 1 hour."

Yi Ning, seeing the rune on Jiang Chen's hand, asked repeatedly, "Where is the Primordial Space?"

"Lower Layer!"

Hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Yi Ning's pretty face instantly frowned.

She, with disappointment, said, "How could it be in the Lower Layer? It seems there will be no chance to go there anytime soon."

The Primordial Space appears in a different location each time.

Sometimes in the Upper Layer, sometimes in the Lower Layer, and sometimes it even runs to the Deep Layer.

Only those recognized by the Primordial Rune can know the exact location, and only then are they qualified to enter.

This time the Primordial

Space appears in the Lower Layer; one must be Level 70 and complete the Third Transcendence to go there.

At their current levels, they cannot pass it at all.

Even if they could go, Yi Ning would not dare to.

She is only Level 41, and Jiang Chen is even only Level 30.

No matter how strong Jiang Chen is, he cannot defeat a Level 70 Third Transcendence professional, or a Top-level Demon above Level 70.

Then there may be no chance to even escape.

Yi Ning sighed, consoling herself, "At least it's not in the Deep Layer; there's always a chance."

Hong Jishi had spoken to Jiang Chen about some matters concerning the Primordial Rune, but did not elaborate.

Perhaps he never considered that Jiang Chen would obtain the Primordial Rune upon coming to the Ancient Battlefield this time.

"Is there a Space-time Portal to the Lower Layer?" Jiang Chen looked over, his gaze asking.

Yi Ning shook her head, saying, "The Space-time Portal can only go from the Lower Layer to the Upper Layer, and without taking action it can linger for about an hour."

"If you engage a person, the lingering time shortens further, possibly only a few minutes."

Jiang Chen guessed this was the rule, "Is there no other way?"

Yi Ning tilted her head, thinking for a moment, "Besides reaching Level 70, it seems there is another way to go to the Lower Layer early..."

"It is said that at the center of the Core Area, there is a passage leading to the Lower Layer."

"However, a BOSS guards it; to enter the passage, one must kill that World BOSS."

Jiang Chen asked, "What level is it?"

Yi Ning said softly, "There's a Level 68 one, and it's said no one has ever killed it; it's also the only BOSS in the Ancient Battlefield that has never been killed."

"There once was a top‑tier Divine-level Strongman who passed through a Space-time Portal from the lower"

"layer to the Upper Layer, specifically to kill it."

"In the end, he still couldn't kill it. Moreover, that Divine-level Strongman was also wounded, with injuries that are hard to heal."

At this point, Yi Ning's eyes changed, as if she had witnessed that great battle herself.

Her voice grew deeper, "That BOSS is terrifying; many practitioners have died at its hands."

"Over time, hardly anyone goes to that area. As for the portal, I've only heard rumors; perhaps it doesn't exist at all."

"Wait until you reach Level 70 and complete the Third Transcendence, then go to the Lower Space. Anyway, the Primordial Space doesn't move; the last migration was 26 years ago, and the next is 74 years away."

Yi Ning's words still meant that Jiang Chen shouldn't think about going to fight the BOSS.

Just honestly reach Level 70, then go to the Lower Space.

After each migration of the Primordial Space, nine Primordial Runes are emitted.

These nine Primordial Runes can scatter across the Ancient Battlefield—in the Upper Layer, Lower Layer, or Deep Layer.

Likewise, the Primordial Space can appear randomly somewhere.

Only by obtaining one of those Primordial Runes, enduring ten days, and fully fusing with it can one qualify to enter the Primordial Space.

Migrations occur once every hundred years; if you obtain a Rune but don't enter the Primordial Space.

When the time comes, the Rune will also disappear.

There was once someone who got a Rune six months before the Primordial Space migrated, but couldn't reach it in time, and it migrated away.

That Rune naturally became void, wasting a great opportunity.

Jiang Chen understood Yi Ning's meaning and said, "I know the situation."

Yi Ning seemed to sigh in relief and changed the subject

, "Now that your Primordial Rune fusion is complete, what Skill did you obtain? I've heard the Skills from Primordial Runes are very strong."

Jiang Chen didn't hide anything and listed his Skill.

Yi Ning's understanding of the Primordial Rune far exceeds Jiang Chen's.

Hong Jishi didn't explain it to Jiang Chen in such detail.

"The Primordial Rune is especially wondrous; the Skill it grants changes according to each profession."

"The same Rune yields different Skills on different professions."

"This Rune of yours suits you perfectly. A 30‑second full‑force burst; if used well, the effect will be extremely, extremely astonishing."

Yi Ning imagined for a moment.

If this Skill were on her, it would deal roughly ten times the damage within 30 seconds.

It's unnecessary for fighting small monsters.

It's insufficient for fighting a BOSS.

The effect is extremely limited.

Only professions like Jiang Chen's, which have a Sea of Summoned Entities, can deal considerable damage in 30 seconds.

She exclaimed with awe, saying "very" twice.

Jiang Chen naturally understood it better than she did.

Yi Ning continued her exclamation, "The Primordial Rune is too wondrous; over the years, countless Divine-level Strongmen have tried to study it thoroughly, but unfortunately they can't comprehend it at all."

"Every stroke of the Primordial Rune seems to carry the deepest principles, captivating anyone who sees it."

"If I could fully decipher a single Primordial Rune in this lifetime, I would have no regrets."

At that moment, Yi Ning's eyes reflected sincere yearning, expressing her dream.

Looking at her, Jiang Chen glanced at the back of his hand and said, "It's just a single 'bing' character; what's so wondrous…"

No!

Jiang Chen shivered.

And was greatly startled!

It's not that simple!!!
