Chapter 767: 610 Myriad Images Pearl

Asking the Three Emperors to help him collect the Chaos Bead and Pangu Axe fragments was a well-considered decision on Jiang Chen’s part.

These two treasures were scattered between heaven and earth. If Jiang Chen were to collect them himself, who knows how long it would take for him to gather enough for his Tao to recover to the level of the Innate Treasure.

If the Three Emperors were to help collect them, however, the speed would undoubtedly be much faster. After all, the status and power of the Three Emperors were incomparable.

As soon as Jiang Chen’s words fell, the faces of the Three Emperors were astonished, especially those of the Heavenly Emperor and the Human Emperor, who turned their heads to look at the Earth Emperor, their faces becoming extraordinarily strange.

"You want the Chaos Bead and Pangu Axe fragments? These are indeed hard to find. It’s possible to find fragments of the Pangu Axe even though they are scattered throughout heaven and earth; with extra effort, they can always be found."

"But the fragments of the Chaos Bead have mostly transformed into Innate Spiritual Treasures, falling into the hands of masters of all factions. They are essentially claimed. Finding them will be extraordinarily difficult."

The Earth Emperor started talking, and instead of directly addressing Jiang Chen’s request, he began to explain the difficulty of finding these two treasures to him.

Jiang Chen was well aware of what the Earth Emperor said. If that weren’t the case, why would he ask the Three Emperors to help him rather than doing it himself? Isn’t it because it’s too difficult?

Jiang Chen laughed, flattered: "This matter is indeed difficult for Jiang Chen. But Your Majesties have vast divine capabilities. Dealing with this minor matter will be effortless."

The Earth Emperor laughed and shook his head, pointing at Jiang Chen: "You little guy are quite the flatterer. How does this count as a minor matter? How can activities involving the Pangu Axe and the Chaos Bead be considered minor?"

"If the fragments of these two magic treasures were so easy to find, they would have been found by now. Why would we be waiting till today?"

"Cheeky lad, pushing difficult problems onto others!"

Jiang Chen laughed awkwardly, remaining silent. What the Earth Emperor said was true. These two treasures were indeed hard to find. If they were easy to find, they would have been discovered by now instead of waiting for him to find them today.

By Jiang Chen’s estimate, even if the Three Emperors agreed to help him find the fragments of the Pangu Axe, they wouldn’t scan the prehistoric world with their divine consciousness to search for this treasure - doing so is taboo. They would instead choose to borrow favors, seeking them from the Great Divine Transcendents of every direction.

Although the fragments of the Pangu Axe are useless, they have a high value as a collectible item. Every Great Divine Transcendent has collected several pieces to varying degrees.

If Jiang Chen were to ask for these fragments of the Pangu Axe directly, he would likely not even see the face of the Great Divine Transcendents. But if the Three Emperors were to ask, they would most likely be able to get them all. After all, very few people dare to ignore the Three Emperors’ prestige.

As for the fragments of the Chaos Bead, Jiang Chen thought even the Three Emperors would likely not be able to retrieve them. After all, the Three Emperors’ prestige, no matter how great, could not possibly extend to others willingly giving up their Innate Spiritual Treasures.

However, if they were to trade other Innate Spiritual Treasures for them, that might just be worth it. Therefore, giving Jiang Chen fragments of the Pangu Axe is the first option.

That’s what Jiang Chen was thinking, but the treasure that the Flame Emperor brought out next caught him by surprise.

"Your request indeed puts people in a difficult position. If it were anyone else, I may not necessarily agree. But you are lucky to have met me; I just happen to have the treasure you need."

The Flame Emperor laughed, extended his hand, and pulled out a bright pearl that glowed all around.

"This is..."

The moment he saw this pearl, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but reveal a shocked expression.

The aura that the pearl emitted was very similar to the Myriad Images Pearl he was wearing. The area around it was full of surging Innate Yuan energy, manifesting various phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder, and the sun, moon, and stars.

"The Myriad Images Pearl!"

"The top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Myriad Images Pearl, transformed from the fragments of the Chaos Treasure, the Chaos Bead."

The Flame Emperor revealed the name of this treasure, making it a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure. Then, he began to explain the origin of this treasure to Jiang Chen:

"When the Chaos Bead was raided and shattered into countless fragments scattered throughout the prehistoric world, twelve of these fragments fell into the Pangu Palace, mixed with twelve types of Innate Yuan energy, and evolved into twelve Original Source beads, all of which are mid-tier Innate Spiritual Treasures."

With that, Jiang Chen understood. The original source of this treasure was one of the twelve ancestral witches, but he didn’t know why an ancestral witch’s companion spiritual treasure would end up in the hands of the Flame Emperor.

The Flame Emperor continued: "These twelve Original Source beads have been the companion spiritual treasures of the twelve ancestral witches since birth, accompanying them at all times."

"Later, the decisive battle between witches and demons broke out. All twelve ancestral witches fell, and these twelve beads were obtained by Mother Earth, who combined them into one entity, transforming them into a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure - the Myriad Images Pearl!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen perked up, listening attentively because he knew that the Flame Emperor’s next words might be significant and could possibly reveal secrets about the humans and the Witch Clan.

Otherwise, why would Mother Earth easily give away the Myriad Images Pearl, a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure, to the Flame Emperor?

The Flame Emperor saw how Jiang Chen was reacting and a trace of a smile appeared in his eyes. He casually said, "During my reign, when I stumbled upon Mother Earth’s big mistake while combing the veins of the prehistoric world. She gifted me this treasure as a token of gratitude."

This was a disappointing answer. No matter how insouciant the Flame Emperor made it seem, it surely wasn’t that simple. To use a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure as a thanks gift, just how big of a favor did he do?

Jiang Chen was curious, but since the Flame Emperor did not expand on it, he dared not ask, no matter how curious he was.

Because the fact that the Flame Emperor didn’t elaborate meant this was something he wasn’t supposed to know. If he were to ask proactively, that would be disrespectful.
