Chapter 481: 441 The Origin of Zixiao Palace, A Different Haotian_3

"Back then, when the Master had just attained the sainthood, he took me and Yaochi from Jade Capital Mountain to the Chaos beyond the heavens, preparing to open up a great multitude of worlds to establish a new Dao Field."

"It was during our journey in the Chaos beyond the heavens that Or Master discovered a gigantic severed hand."

"The size of the severed hand was simply beyond my imagination, even the most massive Innate Saint in their true form was not as large as a finger of that hand. Its five fingers were genuinely like five heavenly pillars."

"Even till now, I have never seen a creature that could compare in size to that severed hand. The North Sea Mystic Turtle, which is known as the largest creature in the Prehistoric World, was still far smaller than that severed hand."

"In the Prehistoric World, only Mount Buzhou was even more massive than that gigantic hand."

At this point, the tone of the Jade Emperor carried a hint of deep astonishment. It was evident how shocking the incident was for him back then; even now as he recalled it, it felt as if he was reliving the experience.

"At that time, I had already cultivated the Five Qi, formed the Three Flowers, and achieved the Dao Fruit of the Great Luo, that is the current Innate Dao Sovereign."

"My strength, throughout the entire Prehistoric world, although was not the top, was still considered first-rate, even the current great Divine Transcendents and saints were at that level back then."

"Given my strength, I shouldn’t have been shocked, but after seeing that severed hand, I was astounded. I couldn’t imagine what kind of being left it behind; it must be more potent than a Saint."

Jiang Chen was not surprised that the Jade Emperor was at the realm of Dao Venerable back then. He remembered that the Jade Emperor originated from an Innate Saint, transformed from a Primordial jade stone. Coupled with being continuously at the side of the Dao Venerable, achieving Dao Venerable would not have been difficult for him.

If the Jade Emperor had not been an Innate Dao Sovereign, Hongjun Daizu wouldn’t have taken him to the Chaos beyond the heavens. Those below Dao Venerable could not stay long in the Chaos beyond the heavens.

The Jade Emperor continued, "Afterwards, the Master informed us that this was the palm of a Chaos Demigod, which was sliced off by the Pangu Great God with one swing of his axe."

"When he said this, the Master took Yaochi and myself to the wound of the severed hand to examine the residual glimmers of the Pangu Axe."

"It was at that moment that I truly realized how powerful the Chaos Demigod and the Pangu Great God were, their strength was far beyond my imagination."

"After discovering the palm of the Five Elements Demon God, the Master stopped wandering in the Chaos, but stayed in place, continuously studying the palm of the Demon God."

"In the end, I do not know what divine ability the Master had used, but he extracted the bone of the palm and most of the flesh and blood essence."

"Next, the Master used the Chaos as a furnace, the power of Heavenly Dao as a fire, and smelted the bones of the Demon God. He added various precious divine objects and refined it into a great hall."

"This, is the origin of Zixiao Palace!"

To be honest, the remarks of the Jade Emperor truly shocked Jiang Chen. He did not expect the origin of Zixiao Palace to be so extraordinary; it was actually refined from the bone of the Five Elements Demon God’s hand.

The bones of the Chaos Demon God, especially a Chaos Demon God like the Five Elements Demon God - whose name alone indicates its immense power, his bones would definitely be materials for refining Innate Treasures.

Adding the divine objects collected by the Dao Venerable, the Zixiao Palace, once refined, would undeniably be an Innate Treasure. Jiang Chen would never believe otherwise.

To refine treasures from the bones of a Chaos Demon God, the audacious actions of the Dao Venerable are indeed frightening. However, the resultant palace, once activated, would undoubtedly showcase a fearsome power.

The Five Elements encompass all things in Heaven and Earth, combined with the might of the Chaos Demon God, the power of the Zixiao Palace would be enough to rival the Five Elements Demon God. It would possess the ability to envelop all things and suppress the vast universe.

Besides, with the addition of the Dao Rhyme of the Five Elements, cultivating inside the Zixiao Palace would definitely be many times faster than outside.

This is what a true treasure is.

Although Jiang Chen admired the Zixiao Palace, his admiration was only a longing for beautiful things, without too much jealousy.

What need was there for him to envy Innate Treasures? After all, he already had his own. The Dao Judge was an Innate Treasure. Although it was damaged, it was still an Innate Treasure, and would be restored sooner or later.

Furthermore, he had his Divine Artifacts. This path had a great potential. Having a Divine Artifact in his possession that could grow to the level of Primordial meant that its potential would not be inferior to Innate Treasures.

With all sorts of treasures in his possession, why would Jiang Chen envy others’ Magic Treasures? In the future, he would be the number one person with Magic Treasures in the Prehistoric world.

The future is his!

...

Seeing Jiang Chen seemingly stunned by his own words, a smug look flashed across the Jade Emperor’s eyes. He quickly returned to his normal state, then continued:

"Although the bones and most of the flesh and blood essence from the hand of the Five Elements Demon God were extracted by the Master, some essence and skin were still left behind."

"The Master didn’t waste them but instead set up an Innate Five Elements Formation, transforming them with the aura of the Chaos to create a Five Elements Secret Realm."

"Numerous years later, according to the Master’s orders, I succeeded Di Jun as the new Heaven Emperor of the Prehistoric World. Before leaving Zixiao Palace, the Master gave me this Five Elements Secret Realm, and said that if I really couldn’t cultivate to the realm of a Daluo Golden Immortal of the Primordial, I could refine the Five Elements Secret Realm to breakthrough."

"Although the Master had entered the Dao, he was still worried about me. Before parting, he gave me an astonishing creation that could allow a Greatly Divine Transcendent to achieve the Dao Fruit of the Primordial all at once, which is even more precious than an Innate Treasure."

"However..."

Suddenly, the Jade Emperor’s aura changed, becoming incredibly domineering, overflowing with confidence, and emitting a breathtaking radiance and an indescribable charm.

For the Jade Emperor eloquently declared: "But, in my life as Haotian, when have I ever been inferior to others? Di Jun was able to achieve the realm of Daluo Jinxian on his own, I, Haotian, hold the same title as him, why can’t I?"

"As Heaven Emperors, would I, Haotian, be less than Di Jun? Do I have to live in his shadow forever?"

"I have my pride, I refuse to be inferior to others. Therefore, even though the Master has given me the chance to achieve the Dao, I didn’t take it. I made a vow that I would never touch the Five Elements Secret Realm in this life."

"I, Haotian, will rely on my own ability, to cultivate to the realm of a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial, to become the supreme ruler of the Primordial."

PS: Tenth day of 10,000 words per day.

PS: The wound isn’t big, I just bled a little. I got hurt when I was cutting a packing tape with a pull-tab from a coke can, and the force was too strong, I ended up hurting myself. I was so dumb I cried, I didn’t want to say it originally, it’s kind of embarrassing.

Also, I’m not in a good mood today, the two down jackets that I bought on November 11th messed up. I never thought that Bosideng, such a big brand has such poor quality. Detached threads could’ve been ignored, but the buttons on the clothes just fell off.

It’s better to go to a physical store, should not have been lazy.
