No wonder Wu Jiu had such a huge reaction. A mission like this was impossible for anyone below the Combat King realm to complete. Without comprehending the Dimensional Force, there was no way they could fix the dimensional crack. If they got too close to it, they would be devoured by the dimensional crack and dragged into the turbulent space. Even if they weren't killed by the turbulent space, they would still be trapped there.
Furthermore, there were powerful dimensional beasts that were ferocious, brutal, and extremely dangerous. In the past one hundred years, a few dimensional cracks had appeared in the Eastern Continent, but the appearance of dimensional beasts was very rare, and there weren't many of them. All of them were repaired by the Combat King warriors of the Martial Saint Dynasty.
The situation this time was obviously more serious than before. Even a Combat Soul dimensional beast had appeared, and this was something that had never happened before. From this, one could tell that repairing the dimensional crack wasn't an easy task. Under such circumstances, only the Imperial Emperor or a Combat King warrior of the Martial Saint Dynasty could fix it. Even Wu Jiu himself couldn't do anything to the dimensional crack. But now, the Imperial Emperor had given Jiang Chen such an impossible mission. This was no different than asking Jiang Chen to die.
"Old Jiu, the Imperial Emperor is a benevolent man. He didn't punish Jiang Chen directly, he just asked him to complete a mission. He has given you enough face, don't tell me you're still not satisfied?"
The Seventh Emperor said with a loud voice. A sneer emerged on his face. Obviously, he knew better than anyone how difficult this mission was. With Jiang Chen's mere Late Divine Core cultivation base, there was no way he could fix the dimensional crack. If he got too close to it, he would immediately be devoured by the dimensional crack, and die a graveless death.
"Just a mission? Old Seventh, if I ask you to do it, can you complete it? "
Wu Jiu was furious.
"Since the Imperial Emperor has decided to do this, the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect won't say anything. As long as Jiang Chen can complete this mission, all the resentment between us will be written off."
Shangguan Sheng said. It looked like the Imperial Emperor was still on their side.
"No, there is no way to complete this mission, I beg the Imperial Emperor to take back the order."
Wu Jiu once again cupped his fist toward the Imperial Emperor. He could never accept this mission, because no matter how powerful Jiang Chen was, he would never be able to complete it.
"Old Ninth, I've made my promise, there's no way I can take it back. As long as Jiang Chen completes this mission, everything that happened in the past will be written off. Of course, Jiang Chen can also choose not to accept this mission. If he does that, I'll give justice to the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect."
The Imperial Emperor said slowly while sitting on his dragon throne.
"Your Majesty …"
Wu Jiu still wanted to say something, but Jiang Chen grabbed his arm and stopped him. If they continued arguing, it would only increase the conflict between the Imperial Emperor and the Ninth Emperor. On the surface, it seemed like Wu Jiu and the Imperial Emperor were like brothers, and they treated each other with respect. Perhaps Wu Jiu thought the same way, but Jiang Chen knew that the Imperial Emperor had a grudge against Wu Jiu since a long time ago. If this grudge was dug up and magnified, it wouldn't do Wu Jiu any good.
After all, the Imperial Emperor was a Combat King warrior, the tycoon who ruled the Eastern Continent. His dignity couldn't be challenged by anyone, not even Wu Jiu. Although the Imperial Emperor didn't show it on the surface, he was definitely not satisfied with it, just like how Jiang Chen refused to kneel down before him.
"Imperial Emperor, do you know where this dimensional crack is located?"
Jiang Chen asked. He didn't have the ability to repair the dimensional crack right now, but he had to agree to it first. Once he left the Martial Saint Dynasty, he would travel to a faraway place, and come back after he achieved some achievements in his cultivation.
"It's located in a remote area of the Eastern Continent, a place called Mount Origin."
The Imperial Emperor said.
"What? Mount Origin? "
When the calm Jiang Chen heard the name Mount Origin, he immediately cried out in shock.
"That's right, those dimensional beasts are wreaking havoc everywhere, and according to the latest news, the entire Mount Origin is about to be destroyed. Therefore, Jiang Chen, if you want to go there, you have to be quick."
The Imperial Emperor said.
"Alright, I'll go now. I promise I'll complete this mission."
Jiang Chen put on a serious expression, then he turned around and walked towards the exit of the Martial Saint Palace. The appearance of the dimensional crack originally had nothing to do with him, but now, it had become an urgent matter. The reason was simple, it was because of Mount Origin, because it was his hometown.
Jiang Chen knew how remote Mount Origin was. In that area, a Heavenly Core warrior was a mighty existence, and if those ferocious dimensional beasts invaded the Red City and Fragrant Sky City, how could the Yan family and Jiang family defend against them?
Therefore, not only would he not blame the Imperial Emperor, he would be grateful to the Imperial Emperor for telling him such an important news. Even if this wasn't a mission, Jiang Chen still had to return to the Martial Saint Palace. He had to return immediately, without any delay, because he couldn't afford to waste any time. His family was there, his most important family, and he couldn't allow anything bad to happen to them. If anything bad happened to them, Jiang Chen wouldn't be able to bear it.
"Wait."
The Imperial Emperor's voice sounded out once again.
"Does the Imperial Emperor have anything else to say?"
Jiang Chen furrowed his brows.
"I want to make it clear, the Martial Saint Dynasty and the Martial Palace will not give you any help for this mission, you will have to complete it yourself."
The Imperial Emperor said. His words were meant for Wu Jiu, he didn't want him to interfere with this mission.
"Alright."
Jiang Chen replied, then he strode out of the Martial Saint Palace. Wu Jiu glanced around, then left angrily, chasing after Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen's straightforward reply had shocked everyone in the Martial Saint Palace. No one had expected Jiang Chen's attitude to change so quickly.
"Alright, you guys can leave now. If Jiang Chen can complete this mission, all the grudges between you all will be written off."
The Imperial Emperor said to the crowd. After that, he slowly stood up from the throne, and his body slowly faded away before disappearing completely.
"I never thought that guy would really accept this mission, he's simply courting death."
The Seventh Emperor said with a sneer.
"The Imperial Emperor said that if he can complete this mission, all the grudges between us will be written off. But, can he really complete this mission? Hehe. "
The Tenth Emperor also had a complacent expression on his face.
"Only Combat King warriors can mend the dimensional crack. Even if all of us work together, we still won't be able to do it. If Jiang Chen really tries to mend the dimensional crack, he will definitely be devoured by it, and die a horrible death."
Shangguan Sheng burst into laughter.
"Don't tell me that guy is going to use this opportunity to escape?"
Shangguan Ying said worriedly.
"Don't worry, no one dares disobey the Imperial Emperor's order, unless he really wants to die. Otherwise, there is no place in the entire Eastern Continent for him to hide."
The Seventh Emperor said confidently.
… …
On the other side, when Wu Jiu walked out of the Martial Saint Palace, Jiang Chen had already flown out of the Martial Saint Dynasty.
"Why is Brother Jiang in such a hurry?"
Wu Jiu was puzzled. He quickly chased after Jiang Chen.
"Brother, why did you agree to this? It's impossible for you to complete this mission. I think you should just leave this place. I'll protect Little Yu and the others for you. "
Wu Jiu arrived next to Jiang Chen and said.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Jiu, but I have to get to Mount Origin as soon as possible."
Jiang Chen said with a serious expression.
"Why? Are you sure you can complete this mission? "
Wu Jiu was surprised. In his eyes, Jiang Chen had always been a calm and collected man. He could remain calm even when facing the Imperial Emperor. But now, he was behaving in such a hurry. This wasn't like Jiang Chen at all.
"I don't have any confidence, but I have to go back, because I came from Mount Origin. My home is there, my family is there, and I have to go back. I can't afford any loss."
Jiang Chen said.
"What?!"
Wu Jiu cried out in shock. Only now did he understand why Jiang Chen was in such a hurry. Not many people knew about Jiang Chen's background, and Wu Jiu was no exception. Mount Origin was just too remote, so remote that no one would know that a peerless genius like Jiang Chen came from such a remote place.
Wu Jiu finally understood why Jiang Chen was in such a hurry to complete this impossible mission.
"Mount Origin is just too remote. Even with your speed, it will take you at least a few days to get there. The Dimensional Beasts have already started destroying Mount Origin, and by the time you get there, it will be too late."
Wu Jiu said. After knowing that Jiang Chen came from Mount Origin, Wu Jiu couldn't stop Jiang Chen anymore. He hadn't been with Jiang Chen for a long time, but he knew that Jiang Chen was a man who valued his friends and family. Besides, Mount Origin was where Jiang Chen's family was. If something bad happened to them, Jiang Chen might go berserk immediately.
Jiang Chen knitted his brows and didn't say anything. He knew what Wu Jiu said. Even if he used the Dimensional Shift, it would still take him a few days to get to Mount Origin from the Martial Saint Dynasty. By that time, everything would be over. Mount Origin would fall, and the people in the Red City region would be plunged into misery and suffering. The consequences would be unimaginable.
What should I do? Jiang Chen's heart was burning with anxiety!
However, the only thing he could do now was to return to Mount Origin as soon as possible and fly as fast as possible.
"Brother, I have a Dimensional Talisman here. It can't teleport you to Mount Origin, but it can teleport you to the border of the Qi Province."
Wu Jiu said.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes instantly lit up. As the Ninth Emperor, Wu Jiu had a noble status, so it was normal for him to have a Dimensional Talisman. Only Combat King warriors could make Dimensional Talismans, but it consumed a lot of their energy. Therefore, ordinary Combat King warriors wouldn't waste their energy to make Dimensional Talismans. That was why they were so precious, and their teleportation distance was limited.
However, if Jiang Chen could get his hands on Wu Jiu's Dimensional Talisman, it would be a different story. If he could teleport himself to the border of the Qi Province, Jiang Chen would only need half an hour to cross Mount Origin and return to the Red City region.
"Thank you, brother Jiu."
Jiang Chen cupped his fist toward Wu Jiu. Since this was an emergency, he would not be polite to Wu Jiu.
"Those Dimensional Beasts are brutal and brutal, so I can't go with you. However, you will need some help. Follow me back to the Martial Palace and bring your help."
