Chapter 1486

It had been a month since Jiang Chen emerged from the Chu Manor. Throughout this month, he had remained in the mountain ranges outside the manor, watching as countless beings emerged from the depths of the Great Wilderness and entered the Chu Manor. Yet, once they crossed that threshold, none ever came back out. By a conservative estimate, at least ten million beings had entered the Chu Manor by now. Jiang Chen looked at the massive mountain range ahead, wondering just how vast the manor was and why so many had entered without a single one returning. Could something have gone wrong? The thought flickered through his mind, but he dismissed it—so many had entered; it was impossible for them all to have met with disaster. Meanwhile, in the Southern Wasteland, at the Southern Academy—one of the five great academies of the True Spirit Realm and a supreme power—the atmosphere was tense. The Southern Academy possessed no Great Emperor, but it had many quasi-emperors and even the Southern Venerable, a figure whose power was infinitely close to that of a Great Emperor. At this moment, many powerful figures from across the True Spirit Realm had gathered there.
