Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate-Chapter 392: A World of His Own

Jiang Chen flew straight into the swirling spatial channel.

The Immortal Martial Cave Heaven was nothing like the small Cave Heaven left behind by Immortal Tian Cui. This place was huge—more like an entire hidden world than a pocket realm.

But before Jiang Chen could claim it as his own, he had to find its core—the very spot where the entire Cave Heaven was anchored to space. That place was called the spatial root node.

For him, tracking it down wasn't hard at all.

He had two powerful allies bound to his soul—Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning—both of them once mighty Void Tribulation realm cultivators. With just a thought, he connected his soul to theirs, and together, their combined divine sense swept across tens of millions of kilometers like a storm.

It didn't take long.

"There it is," Jiang Chen said quietly.

He dove underground, sending waves of his Earth Dao outward to clear the dirt and stone in his way. The earth crumbled and peeled back, revealing a deep, hidden chamber below.

And right in the middle of it was the spatial root node.

But that wasn't the only surprise.

Glowing softly in the dark were thousands of pale golden crystals, shimmering faintly with spatial power and sharp metal energy.

Shangguan Ning's voice echoed in his head, bright with excitement. "That's Space Essence Gold! Real Void Tribulation-level treasure! I can't believe there's this much just lying around!"

"Since this Cave Heaven was created, you're probably the first person to ever set foot here, Jiang Chen."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.

Space Essence Gold... and so much of it? That has to be my increased Black Heavenly Fate Value at work! What a haul!

Just then, Nangong Wan chimed in, her voice steady as always. "This treasure isn't just for show. It can help cultivators grasp the Dao of Space more easily. It's also used to make powerful spatial-type immortal weapons."

She paused, then added, "It can even be used to help Ying Luo grow faster."

That made Jiang Chen raise an eyebrow.

Make weapons... boost spatial comprehension... help Ying Luo evolve? This stuff is insane. He smirked to himself. Better keep it hidden. If that little glutton finds out, she'll never stop bugging me for it. I'll give her a piece now and then as a treat—that should keep her happy.

Without wasting time, he waved his hand and sent all the glowing crystals into his Cosmic Mustard Seed. That storage space was unique—it could swallow entire worlds—but it wouldn't absorb the treasure on its own unless Jiang Chen activated it.

When he finished counting, there were over thirty thousand pieces of Space Essence Gold.

Each one was incredibly rare. Having this many? It was enough to shake the entire cultivation world.

"Now for the main event," Jiang Chen said, eyes gleaming.

He opened five spatial channels leading to the Pure Frost Domain and gave the order: evacuate everyone from the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven.

The process took time, but the cultivators moved quickly. They gathered every living creature they could find and got them out safely.

Soon, the whole place was empty. Jiang Chen stood alone in the massive space.

Then, with a single thought, he activated the Cosmic Mustard Seed.

A strange energy burst out from him, locking onto the spatial root node.

Crack!

An invisible shockwave spread through the air. The ground trembled. Cracks started splitting open across the entire Cave Heaven like broken glass.

BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!

The whole space began falling apart. freewёbnoνel.com

Jiang Chen didn't stick around. He flicked his hand and stepped through a spatial portal, retreating back to the Immortal Martial Continent.

Behind him, the Immortal Martial Cave Heaven collapsed in on itself, sucked piece by piece into the Cosmic Mustard Seed—just like what happened with Immortal Tian Cui's secret realm.

By the time it was done, the inside of the Cosmic Mustard Seed had grown massively.

Chunks of land that were pulled in compressed into a single, enormous world. The total space inside had grown thousands of times larger. It was now the size of two entire Everflowing Truth Domains.

And even better, traces of Spiritual Qi had started to appear inside.

Jiang Chen smiled to himself. It's finally starting to feel like a real world in there. Once the Spiritual Qi fully develops, I won't need to pull energy from the outside anymore. I'll be able to fight while refueling straight from inside.

Not only that—cultivators below the Transcendence realm could now live in the Cosmic Mustard Seed for long periods. It would keep growing too, eventually becoming a true realm of its own. A world under his complete control.

He laughed softly. "Since it's mine now, let's call it the Immortal Martial Mustard Seed."

With a sweep of his divine sense, he checked in on everyone who had lived inside the old Cave Heaven.

His view filled with people.

Almost the entire population of the Immortal Martial Continent—ninety-nine percent of them—had made it out safely. Along with all the beasts and other creatures they'd rescued, the total number hit a mind-blowing one trillion.

People stretched as far as the eye could see. Cultivators moved among the crowd, keeping things in order. At the center, Jiang Chen spotted Ji Mingxiu and the others managing everything.

He also noticed Ji Ruxue, Ning Xian, Xie Xiaojing, Mu Tao, Miao Xiaoru—the women closest to him.

Jiang Chen's gaze sharpened. They've grown stronger... but still not enough.

His Villain Eye scanned them, analyzing their progress. Ji Ruxue and Xie Xiaojing had stepped into the Inquiring Journey realm, while Ning Xian, Mu Tao, and Miao Xiaoru had reached the Heavenly Origin realm.

For their age, their growth was impressive. But to Jiang Chen, they were still far behind.

When I head to the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star, they should stay inside the Immortal Martial Mustard Seed to cultivate. He thought for a moment. I've got tons of Villain Value now—I can use it in the System Mall to buy top-tier pills. With help from Wan'er and Ning'er and the Eternal Vows Binding Ring, they'll grow quickly and still keep their solid foundations.

He flew over the endless crowd.

In an instant, he appeared above them—hovering like a star in the sky.

BOOM!

A mighty aura swept over the entire area.

Cries rang out from below:

"My Lord!"

"It's the Immortal Martial Lord—Lord Jiang Chen!"

"Lord Jiang Chen's strength is beyond any Transcendence realm! This is divine power!"

"He saved the entire continent!"

"Long live the Immortal Martial Lord! We'll follow you forever!"

"I'd give my life for Lord Jiang Chen without hesitation!"

Tens of millions—hundreds of millions—of people dropped to their knees in awe.

Their voices were filled with devotion, love, and endless gratitude.

The wave of emotion pouring from them wasn't just noise. It was real, powerful energy—spiritual essence born from pure belief. It surged through the sky in brilliant streaks of multicolored light.

Jiang Chen saw it clearly with his divine sense.

That light... it wasn't just beautiful. It was powerful. Alive.
