Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse

As the aura of the Origin Dao Body spread out, his body passed through the ancient gate and merged into it, disappearing in an instant.

This cave mansion of the Origin Dao Body did exist in the original work. However, it was mentioned much later, and only briefly.

At that time, the Primordial Holy Son had long since fallen. There was no mention of what was inside, making Jiang Chen extremely curious.

Passing through layers of void, Jiang Chen entered a brand-new world.

The azure sky, picturesque scenery, and the ethereal clouds slowly drifted by.

The towering peaks stood tall like divine swords.

In the center of the sky, countless peaks surrounded a floating palace like stars surrounding the moon.

The palace was not luxurious, nor did it have a grand, golden splendor. It looked like an ordinary palace.

Perhaps due to the maintenance of a formation, even after endless ages, the entire palace still shone brightly as if it were cleaned daily.

Whoosh.

Jiang Chen’s mind stirred, and a divine light, like a heavy hammer, struck the large gate in front of him.

With a bang, the entire gate was directly blasted open, like an ordinary gate, without any killing formations, Dao patterns, or extraordinary features.

Jiang Chen cautiously walked inside.

After confirming there was no danger, he proceeded slowly.

A so-called cave mansion like this might not necessarily be a fortuitous encounter; it was often a form of danger.

Some powerful beings, in order to survive, would expose their cave mansions and then wait for fated individuals to enter, only to seize their bodies and be reborn.

Such occurrences were common.

Many cultivators thought they had found a fortuitous encounter, only to fall into a trap and be possessed.

Unless you were the protagonist like Du Guyun, who never encountered such things. Every time he encountered a fortuitous encounter, it was as if they were there to give him money and resources.

Especially in cases like the aged ones, it was an exception. A powerful being like that, when extremely weak, would often seize a good body to recover, rather than becoming a teacher to help a weak cultivator progress.

Only the protagonist had such privileges.

If not the protagonist, then one would be possessed, losing their life.

“There’s really nothing here!” Jiang Chen looked around the palace.

The palace was just an ordinary one, somewhat like the sleeping quarters of a prince from a small dynasty.

Only the luxurious jewels decorated it. These would be extremely valuable in the mortal world, but they held no value for cultivators.

Although it looked luxurious, it actually had no value. Of course, this was for cultivators; for mortals, it would be a huge treasure trove.

The palace was not very large.

Jiang Chen walked around and finally reached the innermost part.

Under the illumination of countless luminous pearls, a majestic figure sat there. The body had no life force left, but the blood and qi within were still boiling, containing unimaginable fluctuations.

“This is the Origin Dao Body and it’s a great accomplishment physique!” Jiang Chen was astonished.

He felt a sense of resonance from the body before him. Only the same physique could have such resonance.

Moreover, the body before him possessed an unimaginable physical body. Even Jiang Chen’s small accomplishment physique was like a grain of sand on a beach compared to it, barely visible.

Clearly, this was a great accomplishment Origin Dao Body. In simple terms, it was a great accomplishment Origin Dao Body that had died.

Its lifespan had ended, the divine soul had perished, and the soul had returned to heaven and earth, leaving behind an indestructible body.

Even after endless ages, this body still contained terrifying power and still maintained strong might.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen walked forward.

In front of the great accomplishment Origin Dao Body, words filled with resentment were engraved.

“Unable to overturn heaven and earth, step into the supreme realm, unable to defy fate and be reborn!”

“What use is this saint elixir to me? I hate the heavens for being so unfair, why can’t a great accomplishment physique be reborn?”

“Hate, hate, hate!”

Through these cold words, it wasn’t hard to hear the resentment and sorrow of this great accomplishment physique in the past.

Having a great accomplishment physique, but unable to overturn heaven and earth and become the supreme. Having saint elixir, but unable to be reborn, seeking an opportunity!

“It’s a pity it’s a great accomplishment physique!” Jiang Chen sighed, his expression complex.

Although a great accomplishment physique was extremely powerful, even able to contend with a perfect Emperor, it had a drawback: it couldn’t use saint elixir to be reborn.

It needed an emperor elixir.

A great accomplishment physique was already considered a body that had reached the Emperor level, almost half of a quasi-Emperor.

If the soul could be elevated to the Emperor realm, it would be a perfect Emperor.

However, due to the incomplete laws of this world, without the Heavenly Heart Imprint, it was impossible to achieve an Emperor-level soul!

Only by refining the Heavenly Heart Imprint could the soul be elevated to the Emperor realm.

Aside from this, there was only one way.

Unless you went to a world with complete laws, or were extraordinary enough to reverse the world’s imperfections, forcibly elevating the soul.

But doing so also had a drawback.

Heaven’s will would not allow it. The world consciousness of this world wouldn’t allow such an existence to survive. This also meant facing a supreme heavenly tribulation.

And this was only a legend; no one had achieved it to date. Even in novels, no one had done it. Even the protagonist, Du Guyun, was the same. He also had to refine the Heavenly Heart Imprint to barely be called an Emperor.

“There’s actually a saint elixir?” Jiang Chen’s heart moved as he took the ring from the great accomplishment physique’s hand.

It was a space ring at the level of a saint weapon.

Opening it, he saw a pile of dazzling items stacked like a mountain. All sorts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, divine sources, and elixirs were piled up, almost blinding Jiang Chen.

There were even some extremely rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures inside.

This slightly surprised Jiang Chen; truly worthy of a great accomplishment physique, with so much stock.

Hmm.

Jiang Chen’s divine sense scanned and found a secret method extremely suitable for him.

“The Origin Dao Technique! It seems to be a secret method specifically for the Origin Dao Body? Unfortunately, it’s incomplete!” Jiang Chen glanced at it; this secret method could only be cultivated by the Origin Dao Body, the most suitable secret method for his physique.

This was undoubtedly a huge gain and he wondered how this great accomplishment physique obtained it. It was a pity it was an incomplete Dao technique, not perfect.

“What a pity! But it’s still very suitable for me and  the saint elixir is there, and it’s actually an an emperor elixir!” Jiang Chen was stunned.

Such a level of heavenly material and earthly treasure was extremely rare, often active only in legends.

Even an Emperor might not see it. Even in the Primordial Holy Land, in a million years, they had only once obtained an emperor elixir by luck.

From this, one could see the preciousness of an emperor elixir. As for an immortal elixir, it was even rarer. The Primordial Emperor had once obtained it.

“The Heavenly Domain are really good people!” Jiang Chen couldn’t help but praise the Heavenly Domain.

They had indeed provided great help to Jiang Chen by acting as bait. Fortunately, they couldn’t enter. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been Jiang Chen’s turn. They would have emptied this place long ago.

“Fortunately, it was the great accomplishment physique that set up the formation, allowing only the Origin Dao Body to enter. Otherwise, I would have suffered a great loss!”

Whether it was the Origin Dao Technique or the emperor elixir, these were unimaginable gains.

As for other items, Jiang Chen didn’t pay much attention; they were just some powerful secret methods or divine weapons. He didn’t lack these items, so he didn’t care.

“The book did mention that the same physique could enter here! I wonder if I can do it?” After pondering for a while, Jiang Chen tried to let his divine soul enter the great accomplishment physique.

At first, there was some resistance, but with the penetration of the same source, Jiang Chen’s divine soul gradually settled in.

Moments later, the once silent great accomplishment physique suddenly opened its eyes!
