Bankruptcy beast.

Jiang Chen asked the Red Water Qilin clone to follow the imperial team all the way, but failed to find any clues.

After burying the Sky-Opening Cone, the team returned all the way back to the natural ravine as if they were out for a normal adventure.

They did not show any suspicious behavior throughout the whole process, and from their conversation, it can be heard that they didn't even know what they had done before.

"No wonder there was no news in the Federation. It seems that those who planted the Sky-Splitting Cone themselves didn't know what they were doing."

Jiang Chen's expression was solemn. He roughly understood the burial method of the Kaitian Cone. At the same time, a new doubt arose in his mind.

Xiling is adjacent to Wuxinzhe, so it is reasonable for Wuxinzhe and Avalanche to carry out such an operation here, but what about Lingyin City?

It's extremely far away from Xiling. Even if there was any trouble, it should be done by destroying the Thunder Armor. It has nothing to do with Wuxin.

Could it be that Avalanche has some other plans?
Jiang Chen was a little confused, but he had no choice but to give up.

The imperial envoy team had already returned to the Federation, and Jiang Chen no longer had the desire to hang around outside, so he also crossed the natural barrier and returned to the Federation.

After entering the Federation, all of Jiang Chen's equipment returned to normal. Jiang Chen did not waste any time and directly informed Cao Xiong of his findings through a dedicated phone.

"Understand, be careful, and don't act rashly."

Unlike in the past, Cao Xiong replied to the message very quickly, but then there was no further response.

Jiang Chen was not surprised. The teacher had always been elusive, and seemed even busier after he recovered from his injuries.

Who knows, the teacher might be beating up the people from the Avalanche Organization right now.

"We have to deal with these Sky-Opening Cones first."

Jiang Chen looked at the surrounding environment. He didn't feel anything when he was in the natural chasm before, but as soon as he entered the natural chasm, he felt the temperature drop sharply.

What caused all this was the towering snow-capped mountain in the distance.

"Silent Snow Mountain? We have arrived in Yujia City."

Although Yujia City is not the core city of Xiling, its popularity is no less than that of Cyber ​​City where the Su Group’s headquarters is located.

The reason is simple. It has the most beautiful and mysterious Silent Snow Mountain in Xiling. It is also the location of Feixue University, one of the top ten universities.

Whether it is sightseeing or studying, this city remains popular.

At least it is much better than Lingyin City.

However, this year, Yunyin University ranked third overall, and its popularity will be higher in the future.

(Although Jiang Chen won both the individual and team championships in the evaluation competition and defeated Tianqi University, the other aspects of Tianqi University and Tianqing University were too outstanding, and Yunyin University still failed to defeat Tiangang.)
"Take a break first, and then study the Sky-Opening Cone."

Jiang Chen found a secluded corner and then went straight into the manor.

Since entering the third stage, Jiang Chen's stay in the manor is almost unlimited, and this place has naturally become Jiang Chen's best resting area.

At least I don't have to worry about being ambushed or anything like that.

Jiang Chen came to the wooden house, placed the seven Kaitian Cones he had dug up before on the table, and examined them carefully.

Perhaps because they have not been activated, there is nothing special about these Sky-Opening Cones, and not even a single rune line can be seen.

Jiang Chen dared to say that if he had not seen it before, he would probably have ignored it as an ordinary crystal cone ornament.

However, after Jiang Chen activated the Palm of the Universe, he could feel a faint spatial fluctuation from it.

Moreover, the feeling of this fluctuation is very similar to the coordinate flame of the stone gate.

"The Sky-Opening Cone itself is equivalent to a positioning anchor point, and it can attract small worlds to descend. This is really similar to the Stone Gate."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

Back in the Elemental Forest, Avalanche used demonic energy to pollute the elemental spirits and the elemental gates. Perhaps his purpose was to seize the elemental gates and then use them to attract the small world?

After all, compared to these Sky-Opening Cones, the functions of the Elemental Gate are obviously more powerful.

If Avalanche had not wanted to pollute the elemental spirits and seize the elemental gates at the same time, there might not have been enough time for the Sky Patroller to intervene.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen felt that he had connected all the things that had happened recently, and some seemingly unrelated things were also related to the Avalanche Organization.

White meat, Apophis, demonic energy, magic tools, [Ashes] life core, Sky-opening cone...

All of this was caused by the Avalanche organization's attempt to gain control of a more powerful legion.

Although it is unclear why the other party is doing this, it is definitely not a good thing for the crisis that the Federation will face in a year.

One demon army is already troublesome enough. If Avalanche creates a mutant army, a demonized army, an undead army or a small world army, the trouble will be even greater.

Of course, if we could resolve the avalanche in advance, or even take control of the power, the meaning might be completely different.

In order to keep the country safe and stable, Jiang Chen seemed to understand a little more about Zishu's final warning.

only……

Jiang Chen sighed. He was only at C level, and the highest combat power level of the little guys was only gold level. He was not worthy of thinking about these fancy operations.

All he could do was to collect as much information as possible and put some pressure on the avalanche.

Of course, it would be even better if you could take advantage of the opportunity to make some money.

Jiang Chen picked up a Kaitian Cone and shook it. The unactivated Kaitian Cone could only be used as a coordinate, and it was a one-way coordinate at that. There was no such thing as a World Crystal. Apart from handing it over to Wen Quan for research later, it was of no use at all.

In fact, it would be good news if Wen Quan could activate the Sky-Opening Cone. In addition to obtaining the World Crystal, he could also harvest a wave of Life Cores.

After all, the extraordinary creatures from the small world are uncontrollable. Instead of letting them come out to cause destruction, it is better to contribute yourself.

Tsk... a very villainous thought, but Jiang Chen said it suits him now.

Wait, out of control?!

At this moment, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed something unusual.

Or a hint of disharmony.

These actions regarding the avalanche are jarringly connected.

As for the current events, at first glance it seems that the Avalanche Organization is trying to gain control of the Legion's power, but upon closer inspection, there is a clear sense of disconnection between this Sky-Splitting Cone and the previous events.

control.

That’s right, control!
Whether it is white meat or demonic energy, although both will cause extraordinary creatures to lose control, there is a way to control them.

For example, Apophis, for example, magic tools.

Only the Creation Cone was the only one, the creatures summoned were completely out of control, and some were even beyond control.

Just like the time in Chunluo Valley, the poisonous world was about to descend completely, but Jiang Chen did not see even the slightest prop for controlling it appear.

This is not consistent with Avalanche's usual style.

"Is there another voice within the Avalanche organization, or is there another force trying to take advantage of the situation?"

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more headache he got. He simply gave up these ideas, picked up the Sky-Splitting Cone and walked towards the stone gate.

Since the ability of this Kaitian Cone is similar to that of the Stone Gate, perhaps some chemical reaction will occur when the two meet?
After all, the things produced by the Avalanche Organization have always been popular in the manor, so maybe there will really be a surprise.

With some hope in mind, Jiang Chen brought the Sky-Splitting Cone to the stone gate and injected mental power into it just like he would when using a forbidden artifact.

The stone gate was completely silent, with only a few coordinate flames burning there. Apart from that, there was no other movement.

"Am I really overthinking it?"

Jiang Chen sighed, put away the Kaitian Cone and prepared to leave.

There are seven in total. I will keep one for the patrol envoy and give the rest to Wen Quan for research.

As long as one of these two people finds the way to activate the Cone of Creation, he can go and get the World Crystal.

Although he felt that he didn't need to fill up the ten elements to get rich and advance to the Star Light, Jiang Chen didn't mind if it could be completed ahead of time.

But just as Jiang Chen was about to leave, the coordinate flames representing [Rat] and Devil's Island suddenly shook at the same time, and rarely conveyed a hint of desire.

And the desired target is exactly the Kaitian Cone in Jiang Chen's hand!

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, took out a Sky-Splitting Cone and carefully approached the coordinate flame of Devil Island, and his desire grew stronger.

"The Sky-Opening Cone is indeed useful against the stone gate, but it seems to be a little different from what I expected?"

Jiang Chen hesitated for a while and pushed the Kaitian Cone forward again.

At this time, the Kaitian Cone had already touched the outer circle of the Devil Island coordinate flame. Before Jiang Chen could perceive the changes, the flame suddenly burned violently, covering the entire Kaitian Cone.

Jiang Chen immediately let go of his hand and watched the Sky-Opening Cone being melted and swallowed by the flames of the Devil Island coordinates, and then...

Gone?

After absorbing a Sky-Opening Cone, the color of the Devil Island flame became noticeably darker, but other than that there were no other changes.

"Is it because you haven't swallowed enough?"

Jiang Chen took out another Sky-Splitting Cone and threw it at the flames of Devil Island, but this time the flames did not respond, and even pushed it back, looking as if they were full.

"It's not a matter of quantity, so this Sky-Opening Cone is just painted?"

Jiang Chen was speechless and turned to look at the [Rat] flame.

Just now, only these two flames reacted. Now there is no movement from Devil's Island, so we can only try using the rat.

Sure enough, after Jiang Chen took out the Sky-Splitting Cone, the [Rat] flame also showed considerable desire and directly swallowed it.

Moreover, after swallowing one, [Rat] continued to swallow the second, the third...

Until there was only one Kaitian Cone left in Jiang Chen's hand, the desire of [Rat] still did not diminish, nor did it change color like Devil's Island.

"This desperate place really has a big appetite, but does it mean that the flames of [Devil's Island] are full?"

Jiang Chen stroked his chin and sensed the flames of [Devil's Island] again, but still gained nothing.

"It seems that I can only study it slowly later."

Jiang Chen studied it for a long time and finally gave up. But when he was about to leave, he saw that the weapon plants in the flowerbed next to the manor suddenly trembled and pointed their blades outside the manor.

Jiang Chen looked in the direction the blade was pointing, and when he saw several sea beasts slowly swimming out of the fog, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't tell whether he was surprised or happy.

There are monsters outside the manor! (End of this chapter)
