Clementine

Chapter 74 Clementine

In the realm of the God of Light, deep within the vast and boundless Divine Prison Sea lies a secluded island—Jade Flower Island.

This island is only a few dozen miles in circumference, but over the years, the surrounding bandit forces have reached a consensus—no one should approach this small island under any circumstances! Over the years, anyone who has dared to disturb the peace of Jade Flower Island, except for those who are old acquaintances of the island owner, has mostly lost their lives.

Two streaks of light chased each other, flying swiftly towards Jade Flower Island from afar.

The streak of light in front was a short-haired girl wearing a red robe, with bare feet and silver anklets.

The girl clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with anger and resentment, silently vowing, "Father, Mother, I will avenge you, I will!"

Not far behind the girl, closely following her was a burly man with two purple curved horns on his head.

"Wendy, you can't get away!" the burly man with the curved horn roared.

The short-haired girl "Wendy" has the strength of a six-star demon, which is not weak in any plane, but the horned giant is stronger, a seven-star demon, and faster than her. The distance between them is constantly closing.

Wendy glanced back and realized that if things continued like this, she would be caught up sooner or later. She looked at Jade Flower Island not far away, gritted her teeth, and charged straight towards it.

"Jade Flower Island!" The burly man with the curved horn's expression changed. He had also heard of the terrifying Jade Flower Island and did not want to get involved.

"Wendy, I don't believe you dare to set foot on the island!" The burly man with the curved horn did not slow down, his eyes fixed on Wendy's every move.

He only stopped when Wendy actually landed on the island, watching from a distance, not daring to approach.

"You madman, but you're still going to die." The burly man with the curved horns hovered in the air, a cold smile on his face.

He didn't dare to chase after her, but he didn't intend to leave directly either. He wanted to keep an eye on Wendy to prevent her from escaping in another direction.

Even with the eyesight of a Seven-Star Demon, he could see Wendy on the beach at the edge of the island, even from a considerable distance.

Wendy stood on the beach, her heart pounding. She had heard the rumors about Jade Flower Island more than once, but with the burly man chasing her, she had no choice but to risk going to the island.

"If I leave Yuhua Island now, he will definitely chase after me immediately. Only by crossing Yuhua Island can I have any hope of survival."

Wendy glanced back at the menacing, hunched-over giant in the distance, took a deep breath, and cautiously made her way deeper into Jade Flower Island.

Jade Flower Island is covered with many tall, ancient trees, lush and verdant. Wendy walked into the woods and disappeared from the sight of the burly man with the curved horn.

The burly man with the curved horn frowned. He was more than a thousand meters away from Jade Flower Island and could not detect her with his divine sense, so he did not know what had happened to Wendy after she entered the forest. However, he did not leave and continued to observe and wait.

"Whoosh"

Just then, a streak of light flew in from another direction and landed directly on Jade Flower Island.

"Where did this fearless person come from?" The burly man with the curved horns glared, noticing a young man in purple robes amidst the streaks of light.

"Could it be that he wandered here without hearing the terrifying rumors about Jade Flower Island and mistook this for an ordinary island?" the burly man with the curved horn wondered to himself.

"You're asking for it!" The burly man with the curved horn snorted coldly and then stopped thinking about it.

In the woods, Wendy stared in astonishment at the purple-robed youth who had descended from the sky.

"you……"

She never expected anyone to dare to set foot on Jade Flower Island. She herself was desperate, so why did the other party want to?

"Are you from Jade Flower Island?" Jag asked with a smile, looking at the short-haired girl in front of him.

He traveled from Sunrise Mountain to this place, a journey that took him over a hundred years. As he approached Jade Flower Island, he happened to see Wendy walking from the beach into the woods.

He remembered that in the original story, Clementine lived on this island with dozens of women, and assuming that Wendy was one of Clementine's people, he flew over directly to ask.

If Wendy could take him directly to see Clementine, that would be ideal.

"No, I'm not," Wendy admitted.

"No?" Jag asked in surprise.

Jade Flower Island was where Clementine lived, and he thought no outsiders would dare to come. However, he didn't think much of it. Since Wendy wasn't from the island, he decided to use the most direct method to find Clementine.

He released his divine sense, which spread out towards the depths of Jade Flower Island.

The range of a Great Perfection cultivator's divine sense is two hundred miles, while Jade Flower Island is only a few dozen miles in circumference, so it can completely cover the island.

After undergoing transformation, a soul at the Great Perfection stage can be probed by divine sense in a way that even a powerful leader cannot detect, provided one is careful.

However, Jaeger was not consciously controlling himself at the moment, so Wendy sensed Jaeger's consciousness.

"Brother, I've already used my divine sense to investigate, and I didn't find anything unusual. However, I must warn you, this Jade Flower Island is notoriously terrifying in the surrounding area. Even seven-star demon powerhouses who dared to set foot on the island have perished. Who knows what dangers are lurking on the island? You'd better leave quickly," Wendy advised.

Like the burly man with the curved horn, she assumed that Jag had never heard of the terrible rumors about Jade Flower Island.

Jag looked at her with surprise: "If it was dangerous, why did you come?"

"I..." Wendy's eyes dimmed, she shook her head, not wanting to say more.

Jag did not press further, because his divine sense had already detected Clementine.

Meanwhile, deep within Jade Flower Island, there is a castle built in the woods, which is Clementine's residence.

Clementine sensed Jag's divine sense and immediately transformed into a beam of light, flying towards Jag.

A dazzling white light shone down from the sky, even more blinding than the sun in the plane of the God of Light. Under this white light, the enormous ancient tree silently turned to ashes.

In the midst of the white light was a man dressed in a white robe, with loose golden hair and two whiskers that resembled eyebrows, his gaze deep and cold.

"Clementine?" Wendy's eyes widened in shock.

She had heard of Clementine, a powerful being that surpassed the Seven Star Demons millions of years ago.

"So Jade Flower Island was his residence." Wendy finally understood why all the powerful individuals who dared to trespass here had perished.

The white light spread towards the two of them.

"No, I can't die here! I must take revenge!"

Unwilling to perish, Wendy immediately fled backwards at top speed, simultaneously sending a telepathic message to Jag: "Run! That's Clementine, a Grand Perfection expert! We're no match for him!"

But to her astonishment, she found that Jag was standing motionless, as if he were stunned.

"Good luck to you," Wendy sighed. She was barely able to save herself, let alone anyone else.

Just as she was about to turn her head away, Jagger moved and burst into laughter.

"Ha, Clementine, you're attacking the moment you see me?"

A hazy gray mist emerged from Jag's body, spreading rapidly like a protective shield, blocking the white light in front of him.

The white light and the gray fog made a hissing sound when they came into contact, neither giving way to the other.

"It actually blocked it?" Wendy exclaimed incredulously.

"Who exactly is he who blocked the attack of a Great Perfection expert?"

Wendy kept a distance, her eyes fixed on the confrontation between the two powerful figures.

In mid-air, Clementine carefully examined Jag. After sensing Jag's divine sense, he realized that the soul power of that divine sense was no ordinary commander. If it was not a Great Perfection, it was a commander with a mutated soul.

So he directly tested the waters. Although he didn't use his full strength, even a leader with a mutated soul couldn't withstand his attack.

Seeing that Jugger had easily blocked his attack, he was now certain that Jugger must be at the Great Perfection stage.

"Another Great Perfection being has been added to countless planes. What is your name?" Clementine asked solemnly.

Great Perfection beings are all proud, and they may not even submit to the Supreme God.

Many Great Perfection cultivators harbored resentment towards the Supreme God: What's so great about the Supreme God? He's just lucky to have obtained the Supreme Godhood!

Only those who have achieved the Great Perfection can gain their attention.

"Jaeg Joyce, from the Hellish Bauhinia Continent," Jaeg said.

"Jeg?" Clementine frowned slightly. He had never heard of this name before. The Great Perfection of Hell, he only knew Dennington of the Chaotic Sea.

However, he didn't think much of it. Many Great Perfection cultivators are discreet and don't want others to know about them.

"Jeg, what are you doing on my Jade Flower Island?"

Jergi smiled and said, "I've just reached the Great Perfection stage and want to spar with other Great Perfection masters."

"Sparring? He's a battle maniac." Clementine couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

Such powerful individuals are the most troublesome. If Jeg were merely a commander, he could kill him directly, but since both are at the Great Perfection level, neither can defeat the other.

"Haha, let's not delay, come on!" Jag didn't want to wait any longer. As long as he fought Clementine with all his might, he could replicate his profound understanding of the laws and gain another perfect divine clone.

Jugger was enveloped in a layer of gray mist as he rushed into the white light. The dazzling white light was cut in half by the gray mist, like a fish swimming upstream, parting the river.

"In that case, let's fight."

Clementine sighed; he knew that against such a battle maniac, the opponent wouldn't give up without a fight.

The endless white light instantly contracted, only lingering around Clementine.

Clementine charged toward Jaeger.

"boom"

The gray fog and white light collided, and the space could not withstand the terrifying force, cracking open a fissure tens of meters wide.

Such a massive spatial rift possesses astonishing suction power; even a powerful leader could be drawn into it. However, the two Great Perfection experts were unconcerned. Under the influence of their willpower, the powerful suction of the spatial rift had no effect on them, and the two engaged in fierce close combat.

The Great Perfection has no weaknesses; this is not just empty talk.

Although neither the Law of Light nor the Law of Death is adept at physical attacks, the two of them can still easily tear apart spatial rifts tens of meters long with a single punch or kick.

"Boom!" "Boom!"... The two phantoms, moving at extreme speeds, clashed repeatedly, causing space to continuously shatter.

Black ravines appeared in the sky above Jade Flower Island, stretching across the heavens and earth. The speed at which the spatial rifts themselves healed and repaired were far slower than the speed at which the two Great Perfection experts destroyed them.

"This...this is the Great Perfection?"

Wendy retreated far to the edge of Jade Flower Island, not daring to approach it at all.

She looked at the battle high in the sky, her face pale. She was only a six-star demon, and even if she went all out, she could only barely tear open a spatial rift. Meanwhile, a Great Perfection Upper God could easily cause space to collapse. The difference was too great.

Many people have heard of the power of the Great Perfection realm, but few have actually witnessed it in action. Even many powerful leaders have only heard that the Great Perfection realm is very strong, but they don't know exactly how strong it is.

Wendy, a six-star demon, has never even seen a high-level god at the Great Perfection level take action.

"I... I actually reminded a Grandmaster?" Wendy blushed slightly, wishing she could disappear into the ground.

In the distance, the burly man with the curved horn saw the terrifying scene above Jade Flower Island and was shaken to his core.

He was some distance from Jade Flower Island, and the speed of a Great Perfection cultivator was too fast, with many spatial rifts blocking his view, so he couldn't see Jag and Clementine, but the terrifying battlefield still made his heart tremble.

He recalled a battle for the position of Lord of the Holy Light Palace that he had witnessed a hundred million years ago in the Divine Prison Sea. On that occasion, the Lord of the Holy Light Palace narrowly defeated a powerful challenger and retained his position.

At the time, the burly man with the curved horns thought that was a battle between peak god-level experts. Now he realizes that he was just ignorant.

"Great Perfection, even stronger than the Palace Master, they must be Great Perfection experts! It's actually two Great Perfection experts fighting!"

After the initial shock, the burly man with the curved horn began to get excited.

Even though he had cultivated to the level of a seven-star demon, he still possessed the heart of a powerful being. Even if he couldn't reach the peak himself, he still wanted to witness the battles of the strongest warriors.

He mustered his courage and slowly approached, wanting to see what the two powerful figures fighting looked like.

"It's him, Clementine!" He recognized Clementine first.

"The other one is that purple-robed youth from earlier, but I've never heard of him before?"

The burly man with the curved horns had some knowledge of the powerful rulers of the God of Light plane, but none of the powerful figures in his mind matched the person in front of him.

"Is he a powerful being from another plane? This information must be carefully recorded. Another Great Perfection Upper God."

The burly man with the curved horns watched the battle while recording this perfect fight with his Floating Image Crystal Ball.

"boom"

Two figures, one in gray and one in white, separated and confronted each other from a distance.

"Haha, Clementine, physical attacks don't work on you, try my soul attack!"

Jag laughed loudly, and a phantom giant scythe appeared in the air, its crescent-shaped blade slashing towards Clementine.

In the previous exchange, Jag was at a disadvantage because the rules of death are not good at physical attacks. In addition, Clementine has a physical defense artifact, which makes Jag's physical attacks completely ineffective against Clementine, allowing Clementine to attack without any scruples.

"Soul attack? Who's afraid of who?" Clementine smiled faintly, quite confident in his own soul attack.

A beam of transparent sword light shot out from Clementine's eyes.

The sickle and the sword light collided and silently canceled each other out.

"Great, let's do it again!"

A phantom gray mist emerged from Jag's body, coalescing into a skull with eerie white light emanating from its eye sockets and mouth.

The skull attacked Clementine.
