Chapter 710: Sleep, Sleep, When You Sleep There Are No Worries

Like Antares, Jiang Chen was also somewhat solemn at this moment.

If this step is not done properly, all the previous preparations would be wasted; Jiang Chen uses the Soul Pacifying Method, carefully splitting a strand of soul from his soul body.

Too much won't work, too little won't work either.

The Difficulty requirement is extremely high.

If it were in the past, when Jiang Chen had just mastered the Soul Splitting Method, he could not have done it.

But now, thanks to the cultivation of the Undead Wing Skill, his control over soul power has increased dramatically.

Consequently, his understanding of the Soul Pacifying Method is completely different from before.

Hence this plan can now be realized.

Strands of soul split from the body, forming a soul clone. The soul clone gradually solidified, becoming a second Jiang Chen.

The second Jiang Chen is noticeably smaller than the original, and due to insufficient soul power, appears somewhat ethereal.

Previously he could split out ten strands of soul, but those ten strands did not carry consciousness.

Now the split souls need to bear consciousness; the Difficulty is entirely different.

Jiang Chen proceeds very cautiously, little by little.

After spending a full half‑day, he finally split out a complete soul clone.

Antares continues to watch the whole process with the Divine Dragon's Insight, and only after Jiang Chen nods to it with his soul clone does Antares let out a long sigh of relief.

The Great World Rune still resides in Jiang Chen's soul body, showing no sign of activity.

Clearly, the Great World Rune has no interest in the soul clone.

The soul clone is too weak, less than one percent of the original, not worth noting.

Antares whispers, "Next I will use a secret technique to put your soul body into slumber,"

"your consciousness will be struck by the secret technique"

"if you cannot endure, your consciousness will fall asleep along with the soul body, and your soul clone will collapse as well."

Jiang Chen knows that deceiving the Great World Rune will not be easy.

Now he can only take one step and see.

Yet he is full of confidence, sharing Antares's emotion, a little excitement.

"Begin."

Jiang Chen takes a deep breath; the soul state does not require breathing, it's just his habit.

Both the original and the clone inhale simultaneously, which looks rather amusing.

Antares hums softly, and a Divine Dragon appears in the soul world.

The Divine Dragon spews swirling banquet qi, turning into pitch‑black clouds that drift toward Jiang Chen, completely enveloping his soul body.

Secret Art: Cloud of No Awareness.

According to Antares, the Cloud of No Awareness can seal all perception, causing the target to fall into slumber, hard to resist.

Moreover, the Cloud of No Awareness wielded by it surpasses Jiang Chen by an unknown number of levels.

Jiang Chen's soul body has no resistance, and almost instantly falls into sleep.

As the original sleeps, another segment of consciousness is also affected.

Jiang Chen's consciousness is chaotic, feeling as if about to tumble.

A strong wave of drowsiness assaults him.

At this moment, he desperately wants to sleep, to sleep until the ends of time; once trapped in the Cloud of No Awareness, the six consciousnesses are sealed, leading to total oblivion.

If no one awakens him, sleeping for thousands of years is merely ordinary.

Jiang Chen keeps Antares's words in mind, and the clone's consciousness strives to stay awake, fighting the drowsiness.

Antares also watches intently; as the original sleeps, the Great World Rune seems to lose any activity.

The result is as expected, and Antares also lets out a sigh of relief.

. Then its attention shifts to Jiang Chen's soul clone, which is battling the drowsiness transmitted from the original.

"Hold on!"

"You must hold on!"

Antares says softly, without much confidence, because this is too difficult. Jiang Chen's soul level is insufficient, his strength weak, making it hard.

Yet now he has no choice but to do it.

Jiang Chen's soul clone trembles continuously, showing his struggle. But the drowsiness from the Cloud of No Awareness is too strong, and Jiang Chen gradually cannot hold on.

The drowsiness intensifies, and in the void Jiang Chen seems to hear someone repeatedly say, "Sleep, sleep, once asleep there are no worries."

Suddenly a purple light shoots from deep within the soul, crossing time and space, landing on Jiang Chen's soul clone.

Jiang Chen jolts, snapping awake.

Antares shows a shocked expression; this purple light arrives very oddly, and the aura it contains is immense, not far behind the Great World Rune.

And the core of the purple light, Antares instantly sees, is a single spark, a purple spark.

Antares tries to locate the source of the purple light, but cannot find it.

Its appearance is extremely abrupt, and it disappears just as abruptly.

It can be said it left no trace, utterly mysterious,

even Antares does not know where it came from.

The purple light is merely a tiny spark, an insignificant spark.

After piercing the soul clone, the original drowsiness vanishes instantly, and Jiang Chen is fully awake.

The influence of the Cloud of No Awareness disappears completely.

"How is it?"

Antares asked in a deep voice.

Jiang Chen nodded. "We can proceed to the next step."

While he was in a deep sleep, Jiang Chen saw something flying toward him.

Purple light, and he vaguely guessed its origin.

The Talent World…

The most mysterious place within his own soul.

In the Talent World there are three violet Flames, representing his three unique talents.

Most importantly, the Talent World also contains his own system.

The spark that just turned into purple light should be related to them.

Whatever it is, now that he is fully awake, he must take the next step first.

Other matters can wait; Jiang Chen knows what's urgent.

Following the prearranged plan, Jiang Chen's Clone entered the Skill space.

Ten colorless Dragon Soul Crystals filled with Soul Energy followed closely. The Clone itself possessed very little Soul Energy, less than one percent of the main body.

However, at this moment the Clone was used only as a conduit.

The Clone interfaced with one Dragon Soul Crystal, and the Soul Energy stored inside surged out instantly, flooding the entire Skill space at astonishing speed.

Jiang Chen must seize the time; only Heaven knows how long the effect of the Unaware Cloud can last.

After all, the opponent is the Great World Rune, the most primordial force of the entire world.

It seems even the old men riding the green oxen have not noticed the Great World Rune within themselves.

If it awakens and intervenes again, he will have no chance at all.

A race against time?

No, even 0.01 seconds can decide future life and death.

The first Dragon Soul Crystal was activated, and its Soul Energy filled the Skill space in less than a second.

A sharp glint flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes.

"Found it!"

"There is indeed a Skill."

The Skill Star Core that he could not locate before has now truly been found. There are few of them—only three Skill Star Cores.

It also represents

His Level 80 three Skills.

Previously, the Skills were hidden by the Great World Rune in a way he could not comprehend.

Now, without the Great World Rune's interference, he found them with ease. Jiang Chen didn't dare to waste even 0.1 seconds; as he located them, the remaining Dragon Soul Crystals were already activated.

The massive Soul Energy surged forward, crashing into the Skill Star Cores to ignite them.

The Skill Star Cores began to glow as the laws of heaven and earth turned, and wondrous power descended from the sky, piercing Jiang Chen's body, passing through the Soul World into the Skill space.

Activating the Skill Star Cores inevitably triggers a resonance of the laws.

At the instant of the law resonance, Jiang Chen's Soul body suddenly opened its eyes.

The Great World Rune began to flash!
