Chapter 609: Four Nine One: The Path to the Divine Artifact’s Promotion

Inexhaustible Mountain River Formation!

After refining Thunder Marsh, Jiang Chen arranged the Inexhaustible Mountain River Formation on the vast territory of the Divine Race.

Once this formation was set, it could gather the boundless might of endless mountains and rivers, seal the earth veins, oppress the spiritual veins, and suppress all the spiritual mechanisms of tens of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

Jiang Chen laid down this formation not for any other purpose, but because he knew that he simply couldn’t take away the mining veins controlled by the Divine Race.

The veins were accumulated by the essence of mountains and rivers. If he rashly drained it, it would inevitably lead to the loss of essence. At that time, the endless mountains and rivers would become wasteland, and such consequences would all be attributed to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen naturally didn’t want to do this.

But he couldn’t take away the veins, nor did he want to leave them to others. Therefore, Jiang Chen used the endless mountains and rivers as the base, gathered the mighty trend to create an unmatched formation, thoroughly sealed off the spiritual mechanisms of this place.

After the formation took shape, the surrounding forces couldn’t even reach the territories left by the Divine Race, let alone seize them. The might of the mountains and rivers would repel all outsiders.

Moreover, under the influence of the formation, the spiritual energy of this place would slowly dissipate until it became a degenerate land.

This was hibernation, quietly accumulating strength until the right moment when it would soar into the sky. Then, the spiritual energy of this place would revive and become more dense than before, directly transforming into a blessed land.

Then, by that time, Jiang Chen should have attained the realm of a Dao Venerable and could come here to reap the fruits.

...

"Bastard!"

"Jiang Chen is really ruthless, not satisfied with eating the meat, he even wants to drink all the soup, he really isn’t leaving us anything."

The crowd watched for a while, figured out a bit about this formation, and then their faces immediately grew gloomy, unspeakably scary.

They initially thought they could enjoy some benefits after Jiang Chen left, but they didn’t expect Jiang Chen to be so absolute in his actions, smashing the pot after finishing the meat, without leaving them a bit of soup.

He is really destructive!

"What shall we do?"

Someone unwillingly asked the crowd.

"What to do? Besides each going home, what else can we do?"

"Putting aside the fact that we can’t beat Jiang Chen, even if we could, what of it? He is a Emperor Lord of Heaven Court, he could kill us, and it wouldn’t matter."

"But if we dare to harm him, that would be big trouble, Heaven Court will never let us off. If we killed him, do you believe that the Heavenly Dao could strike us dead with a thunderbolt on the spot?"

Someone saw through everything, knowing that no matter what, they could never compete with Jiang Chen.

There is a saying that the common people shouldn’t fight with officials, they are the common people, Jiang Chen is the official, to fight with Jiang Chen, isn’t that courting death?

"Sigh, let’s go back, report the situation here truthfully to the ancestor. What to do next will be entirely up to the ancestor."

They all felt helpless and each went their own way.

As for Jiang Chen, he didn’t care about their thoughts, he only took his spoils of war and went back to Cang Mountain.

...

...

Before rushing to Nine Heavens, Jiang Chen first came to the foot of Cang Mountain, told his clan people that the Divine Race has become a thing of the past, and from now on, there will no longer be a Divine Race in the Three Realms.

Then, Jiang Chen comforted those clan people for a while and arranged for someone to send them home. After this, Jiang Chen took the Divine Race members and headed to Nine Heavens.

To the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree, the flesh and blood of the Divine Race is a great tonic, and since Jiang Chen had capture the entire Divine Race, he naturally intended to make use of them and let them contribute their own strength to the growth of the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree.

Without a word on the way, Jiang Chen traversed the void and arrived at the first heaven of Nine Heavens, Taixiao Huiming Heaven.

The Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree was rooted in this heaven, rising all the way up, supporting the whole Nine Heavens.

Upon arriving here, Jiang Chen waved his wide sleeves, a ray of light flew out, which grew from small to large, transforming into tens of millions of figures.

Tens of millions, this was the total number of people of the Divine Race.

The bloodline of the Innate Divine Demon was extremely difficult to breed descendants, and after nearly four eras, it had only produced tens of millions of clan people, the number was really frighteningly low.

He didn’t know, once he devoured the flesh and blood of the Divine Race, what level could the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree grow into.

Thinking about this, Jiang Chen turned his head to the Divine Race people behind him and said, "I have troubled all the Dao friends. I hope you can spare your lives to lend me a helping hand."

Those Divine Race people had long been enlightened by Jiang Chen, even if Jiang Chen asked them to die, they wouldn’t frown.

So, at this moment, Jiang Chen asked them to give up their lives, they didn’t show any hesitation, but zealously said, "Being able to die for the Emperor Lord is what we’ve been seeking, there’s no need for you to thank us, Emperor Lord."

Tsk, tsk, tsk...

Seeing this scene, even Jiang Chen was inwardly taken aback. Such divine ability was truly demonic, even more so than the Demonic Way itself.

"Emperor Lord, I’m going!"

Not long after, a Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Divine Race stepped forward, sacrificed his physical body, and transformed into a wisp of innate thunder, which entered the body of the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree.

Boom!

To the naked eyes, the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree shook slightly, and the thunder light on its body seemed even brighter.

After the Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Divine Race sacrificed his physical body, he did not die. Instead, he remained in the void in the form of his soul.

For advanced cultivators, soul is the foundation. As long as the soul is fine, the loss of the physical body is dismissed. Although regrettable, it will not threaten their lives. It only takes some time to condense a new physical body.

Of course, this newly condensed body could not compare with the previous body, and it would take a lot of energy to polish it to return it to its peak levels.

"Thank you, Dao friend!"

After bowing to the soul of the Divine Race’s Taiyi Golden Immortal, Jiang Chen took it into the Chaos Divine Palace, prepared to use the innate spiritual energy within it to aid him in recondensing his physical body, ready for any uncertain needs.

If consuming all the Divine Race’s physical bodies still failed to make the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree grow, even if Jiang Chen felt hesitant, he would have to try again.

The actions of the God’s Taiyi Golden Immortal seemed to inspire the Divine Race’s enthusiasm. One after another, members of the Divine Race stepped forward, sacrificing their entire flesh and blood, transforming into innate thunder, and aiding in the growth of the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Visible to the naked eyes, the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree began to grow larger, taller, and thicker. Its patterns became even more mysterious. The amount of vital energy summoned from the Thunder Marsh also skyrocketed.

One by one, the vital energy pills were formed under the tempering of the thunder light, and quickly covered a layer in the sky like pouring rain.

Seeing this scene, a smile unconsciously appeared on Jiang Chen’s face. With these resources at hand, why would he worry about not being able to achieve the status of Innate Dao Sovereign?

"Huh!"

Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s expression changed, showing a look of surprise, and he turned his head to look at the Chaos Divine Palace next to him.

He wasn’t sure if it was his illusion, but he suddenly found that the power of the Chaos Divine Palace seemed to be stronger than before.

During his hesitation, the power of the Chaos Divine Palace become stronger again. It was then that Jiang Chen saw it. It was after a member of the Divine Race, a Great Luo Golden Immortal’s soul, entered the Chaos Divine Palace, his power began to strengthen.

Could it be that... "

Having glimpsed this, Jiang Chen had a vague guess in his heart. He then asked the Divine Race to stop and not to continue sacrificing their physical bodies. Instead, he himself entered the Chaos Divine Palace to verify his guess.

The Chaos World, a small world nurtured by the Chaos Divine Palace, and also the source of its power. With a thought, Jiang Chen arrived in this realm.

At the same time, the deity of the Chaos Divine Palace, Chaos, appeared beside Jiang Chen.

"Chaos, have you noticed anything?"

Jiang Chen turned his head and asked Chaos beside him. As the deity nurtured by the Chaos Divine Palace, Chaos must be very familiar with everything about the Chaos Divine Palace, and any changes could not escape his perception.

Chaos respectfully replied: "The power of the Chaos World is becoming stronger, and it is due to those Divine Race souls. After they entered the Chaos World, the aura emitted by their souls fused with this world, causing it to gradually change and become stronger."

Jiang Chen nodded: "It is almost the same as my guess."

Having said that, Jiang Chen ordered a Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Divine Race to dissolve his soul and the imprint of his original source into the Chaos World, transforming them into creatures of this realm.

The Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Divine Race did so, and then, Jiang Chen found that the power of the Chaos World started to skyrocket, and the rules of Heaven and Earth became more perfect.

"Good, very good, it seems I have found a way to quickly promote the Divine Artifact." The scene before him made Jiang Chen extremely excited, and a conjecture emerged uncontrollably in his mind.

Then, Jiang Chen took out a skull and a headless corpse. This was the Dao Monarch he had killed earlier.

Except for the True Spirit that the Taichu Divine Sword had obliterated, his physical body, and even his soul, were well-preserved and the perfect materials for refining innate magic treasures. Therefore, Jiang Chen preserved them.

Throwing Dao Monarch’s body to Chaos, Jiang Chen ordered, "Chaos, refine this Dao Monarch’s corpse and merge it into the Chaos World."

Without ceremony, Chaos directly summoned the original source of the world, transforming it into a colossal millstone, covering Dao Monarch’s body, and began refining it bit by bit.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Strands of innate spiritual energy were refined and integrated into the Chaos World, causing the Heaven and Earth here to tremble violently.

It was an excited trembling, and Jiang Chen could clearly feel that every time Heaven and Earth trembled, their power became stronger.

A desperate Innate Dao Monarch could open up a complete small world. In other words, the original source of an Innate Dao Monarch could be on par with a small world.

The Chaos World devouring an Innate Dao Monarch was equivalent to devouring a small world, and the transformation was naturally astonishing.

The original source became more substantial, the rules of Heaven and Earth became more complete, the overarching framework also became more rigorous, and strands of the Great Dao radiance flickered in the void, emitting an immortal aura.

At this moment, the Chaos World had moved a big step towards a middle thousand world. If several hundred Innate Dao Monarchs were devoured again, perhaps the Chaos World could directly ascend to a middle thousand world.
