Chapter 1005: 734 Nine Tripods, World_2

When the Nine Tripods become one, they project the phantom of the Nine States, allowing surveillance of everything within the Nine States, big or small, as long as one is willing, it can all be seen.

If this is not a great instrument, what is it?

Whenever an opportunity arises, even before it is discovered by others, it has already been captured by the Nine Tripods and presented before the master.

Within the Nine States, any unusual movement of people is immediately detected by the Nine Tripods, projected out—how then can chaos be wrought?

"With such a treasure, it’s no wonder that monarchs of all dynasties have wanted to keep it in their hands."

Having learned the significance of the Nine Tripods, Jiang Chen was full of emotion, finally understanding why the monarchs of all ages were tirelessly in pursuit of the Nine Tripods.

The Nine Tripods are equivalent to the world; this is not just a saying, but a fact.

...

"What a pity for the Dragon Veins of our Nine States."

After examining the Nine Tripods, Jiang Chen didn’t rush to put them back in their place; instead, he looked toward the Dragon Veins beneath the Nine Tripods.

Compared to the Nine Tripods, the Dragon Veins had a much closer connection to the living beings of the Nine States. After all, the more prosperous the Dragon Veins, the greater the benefits the living beings of the Nine States would receive.

In the records of the Jiang Family, during ancient times, the Dragon Veins of the Nine States were like an ancestral dragon, with an extremely vast body, stretching for countless miles. But now, although the size of the Dragon Veins had not changed, it had been severed into several pieces in the middle.

With its body broken into several pieces, it was evident that it had been seriously injured. Jiang Chen could clearly sense that the aura emitted by the Dragon Veins was extremely weak, and at the head of the dragon, there was an even denser feeling of decay and decline.

This was akin to a person exuding the aura of death, not far from dying.

This was a major issue; if the Dragon Veins of the Nine States were to fall, the impact on the Nine States would be no less than that of the heavens shattering and the earth splitting.

Simply put, after the Dragon Veins perish, the spiritual energy of the Nine States would gradually deplete, and then step by step, enter the Age of Dharma Decline, or even a state of nothingness.

"Someone has attempted to heal the Dragon Veins before, but the results were not very good."

After studying for a while, Jiang Chen discovered that the anomaly of the Dragon Veins had in fact been noticed by others, and there had even been attempts to remedy it.

There were no shortage of capable people among the Human Race; something as significant as the withering of the Dragon Veins couldn’t possibly go unnoticed, and it was only natural that some had tried to mend it.

However, it was clear that this remedial measure did work at the beginning, but later, for some unknown reason, as time went by, the measure gradually began losing its effectiveness.

"To connect the Nine Tripods with the Fate of the Human Path Dynasty, in this way, the more prosperous the Human Path Dynasty, the more powerful the Nine Tripods become, and they can even nourish the Dragon Veins of the Nine States, rejuvenating them."

"But similarly, doing so has significant drawbacks; if the Human Path Dynasty declines, the power of the Nine Tripods also weakens, becoming unable to nourish the Dragon Veins. At that time, the aura of calamity will rise, leading to all kinds of catastrophic events."

Jiang Chen had an epiphany, understanding why during the golden age of a dynasty, the world was peaceful without any demons causing trouble, nor deities showing their sanctity. That was because all extraordinary powers were suppressed by the Nine Tripods.

But by the end of the dynasty, when the power of the Nine Tripods weakened to the bottom, they could no longer suppress Heaven and Earth. Then, having lost their restraint, naturally, all sorts of demons and evil spirits emerged.

A kingdom on the brink of downfall is always accompanied by omens and evil presences; there are always signs.

"Relying on the Fate of a dynasty can only treat the symptoms, not cure the root cause. The best solution is to revive the Dragon Veins of the Nine States."

Although the damages to the Dragon Veins of the Nine States were severe, it would not be difficult for the Human Race to repair them. Jiang Chen couldn’t understand why the masters of the Human Race didn’t take action to fix the Dragon Veins, wondering if there were any taboos they feared, but he couldn’t care about those now.

Because he had already started to repair the Dragon Veins. The Innate Yuan Qi devoured by the Nine Tripods was being used to repair the Dragon Veins of the Nine States. As for any taboos, Jiang Chen had already acted, so what was there to fear?

He just didn’t believe that in today’s Prehistoric World, there was still anything worth his trepidation.

"Divide!"

With a thought, Jiang Chen manifested eight avatars, each heading to the other eight Tripods’ locations.

He planned to move the Nine Tripods back into their rightful positions, a task not difficult for Jiang Chen, for he was the Human King, linked with the Fate of the Human Race. He could clearly see the arrangement of the great Nine Tripod formation and needed only to move the Tripods to restore the Nine States barrier.

But since there were nine Tripods, they all had to be moved simultaneously, hence he created eight avatars.

...

...

"King Yu above, today the junior of the Human Race, Jiang Chen, wishes to reinstate the Nine States barrier and needs to move the Nine Tripods. I hope that King Yu will grant this favor!"

Before the Nine Tripods, Jiang Chen didn’t rush to act but instead paid homage to King Yu. He held great respect for the predecessors of the Human Race.

Boom!

Perhaps sensing the Dao Fruit of the Human Race within Jiang Chen, after he finished paying homage to King Yu, the Nine Tripods vibrated thunderously, interweaving countless rays of spiritual light, and an immense will began to revive.

Then, without waiting for Jiang Chen to take action, the Nine Tripods spontaneously merged with Heaven and Earth, shifting their positions to align once more.

In an instant, the Nine States underwent a transformation: nine dazzling rays of light burst forth from the depths of the earth, soaring into the clouds, exploding above the firmament and weaving into countless divine lights, gradually evolving into a vast barrier that enshrouded the entire Nine States.

At the same time, within the land of the Nine States, the endless mountains and rivers trembled as streams of spiritual energy emerged from their depths, merging into the Nine States barrier to enhance its might.

The strength of the Nine States barrier lay not only in the Nine Tripods but also in the blessing of the mountains and lands. Their combined powers suppressed demons from creating chaos in the Nine States.

It was regrettable that the dragon veins of the Nine States were significantly damaged and couldn’t exert their full potential. Otherwise, if the power of the Nine States’ dragon veins was added, the Nine States barrier would undoubtedly become even more formidable.

Boom!

With the repositioning of the Nine Tripods, the grand array of the Nine States was reactivated. The exterior saw the resurgence of the Nine States barrier, and the interior was anything but calm.

The power of the Nine Tripods coalesced, becoming stronger. The Chaos Yuan Qi they had previously absorbed was now rapidly being refined by them.

Jiang Chen could clearly see strands of mysterious Yuan Qi, mixed with a unique force of creation, gushing out from the mouths of the Nine Tripods, flowing into the dragon veins of the Nine States beneath them.

This power, considered as the most original source, was a grand tonic for the dragon veins, capable of replenishing their source.

After absorbing this special Innate Yuan Qi, the aura of death on the dragon veins of the Nine States diminished at a visible rate, a rich, vibrant life force emanating from them, replacing the aura of death.

The dragon veins of the Nine States were rejuvenated; they had truly come back to life from the stillness, bursting forth with new vitality.

As the dragon veins fostered life, the Nine States were as if granted new hope. All awaited the complete revival of the Dragon Clan, signaling the advent of a golden age. A time when all people could practice cultivation was no longer just a dream.

Boom!

Sensing the revival of the dragon veins, the land trembled, and a torrential surge of earth’s energy gushed forth, nourishing everything on the land.

One could see on the cliffs and precipices, vast fields of spiritual herbs sprouting, growing at a pace beyond the ordinary, one day equaling a year.

The great rivers, in their mighty flow, seemed to have gained a spirit of their own. The water now contained spiritual energy, drinking from these rivers year-round would be enough to improve one’s physique and prevent all diseases.

With irrigation from this water, crops would not only yield abundantly but might also undergo a mutation, transforming into spiritual rice.

The whole Nine States was developing in every positive direction.

...

...

"The Nine States barrier!"

"His Majesty has truly restarted the Nine States barrier. Who would have thought that in my lifetime, I would witness the reappearance of the Nine States barrier."

"Truly, Heaven blesses our Human Race!"

"Our Human Race shall prosper!"

Watching the gigantic barrier that enveloped the entire Nine States, many powerful beings of the Human Race were so moved that they couldn’t contain themselves, some even shedding tears of excitement.

The first function of the Nine States barrier was to gather Qi. The Nine Tripods acted like a huge spiritual array, which once activated, would spontaneously gather the spiritual energy from the void.
