Chapter 916: 692 Devouring Demon God_2

However, Jiang Chen was growing impatient, because soon after, he would face off against a Mystic Sect expert and needed to use the Star Array Divine Palace, so he could not afford to wait for it to slowly assimilate those demon gods and Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Swish~~

Threads of Innate Primordial Light burst forth, surging out from the Star Array Divine Palace and toward Jiang Chen’s body, beginning to rapidly heal his previous injuries.

"Is this a Divine Artifact nourishing in return?"

Previously, Jiang Chen had been severely injured by a mysterious strongman’s punch, his Original Source almost dissipated, and his vitality could be said to be weakened to an extreme, arguably the most severe wound he had suffered since he began his journey.

But at this moment, with the aid of the Innate Primordial Light, his injuries were healing quickly, and the demonic energy and Dao marks lingering in his body were also being rapidly erased.

Before long, Jiang Chen’s complexion regained its rosy hue, the strength within his body surged once again, and the Chaos Spiritual Treasure, Chaos Green Lotus, swayed in turn, shedding strands of Primordial Source, combining efforts with the Innate Primordial Light to fully restore his injuries.

"I have a way now!"

With a thought, Jiang Chen turned to look at those Human Race strongmen, his mind now filled with a method to help the Star Array Divine Palace accelerate the assimilation of the demon gods and Innate Spiritual Treasures.

His own strength had been severely injured, let alone these Human Race strongmen, all of whom were gravely wounded, no better off than he was.

Innate Dao Sovereigns rarely get injured, but once they do, recovery is possible only by finding top-level Innate spiritual substances; otherwise, they must rely on the long passage of time to self-heal.

According to Jiang Chen’s estimate, without external help, his own injuries would take at least a thousand years to heal naturally.

He is a cultivator of the Tao of Primordial Chaos and needs a millennium to recuperate, let alone these Human Race strongmen, whose recovery time would require at least ten times more.

Tens of thousands of years, ah!

To be struck by a Chaos Strongman and only need to recover for ten thousand years was already a fortunate outcome. But in the current situation, these Human Race strongmen definitely did not wish to spend ten thousand years healing.

And Jiang Chen here, happened to have a method that could help them recover quickly.

"Elders, how are your injuries?"

Jiang Chen stepped forward, diverting a portion of the Primordial force into the bodies of these Human Race strongmen to assist in healing their injuries.

However, although the Innate Primordial Light was strong, being split into one hundred and eight segments, how much power could remain? To these Innate Dao Sovereigns, it was nothing but a drop in the bucket, doing little other than easing their pain.

"Not very good, unless there is a top-level Innate spiritual substance, otherwise, without tens of thousands of years, these injuries cannot be healed."

An elder from the Jiang Family furrowed his brows and spoke. The mysterious strongman might have disappeared, but the force of his strike had not vanished with him and was still wreaking havoc within everyone’s bodies, continuously damaging them.

Top-level Innate spiritual substances were available to the Human Race, but they were strategic materials, to be used only during major wars to be distributed to the Innate Dao Sovereigns.

However, with the world at peace, the high echelons of the Human Race surely would not agree to open the treasury and retrieve the top-level Innate spiritual substances to heal these Innate Dao Sovereigns.

As for Jiang Chen, he indeed possessed top-level Innate spiritual substances, but even if he used all his treasures, he could only heal a dozen or so people at best. For one hundred and eight people, it truly exceeded his capacity.

"Emperor Lord, there’s no need to trouble yourself. Although the injuries are serious, we can go to Fire Cloud Cave to recuperate. It is the number one Cave Heaven in the Prehistoric World. Healing there, it’s estimated that it will only take a hundred years for us to regain mobility, and a thousand years to fully recover."

One of the Human Race strongmen spoke up, telling Jiang Chen not to worry about them as they could go to Fire Cloud Cave to heal. It was the number one Cave Heaven in the Prehistoric World, teeming with Chaotic energy, making it an excellent place for recovery.

Jiang Chen has only been born for a few centuries; how much could he possibly have? The Human Race strongmen, fearing he would deplete all his resources to heal everyone, deliberately mentioned this to avoid making him feel guilty.

"Actually, speaking of healing, I do have a good place here, where you don’t need a hundred years to help you, elders, to recover from your injuries."

Fire Cloud Cave was indeed good, but a thousand years was still too slow. Jiang Chen had a better place in mind, where they could all be healed without needing a hundred years.

"What, a better place than Fire Cloud Cave, is it Kunlun Mountain?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately unsettled. Speaking of the Ancient Era, there indeed were many places better than Fire Cloud Cave, such as the Heaven Court of the Demon Clan, the Pangu Palace of the Witch Clan, and various other holy lands.

However, now, those holy lands lay in ruins, disappeared, only Kunlun Mountain remained the same as in bygone days, as the foremost holy land of the Prehistoric World, firmly surpassing Fire Cloud Cave. The others, even the saints’ Taoist fields, could not necessarily match Fire Cloud Cave.

"It’s not Kunlun Mountain, but this Divine Palace," Jiang Chen turned around and pointed to the Cycle Divine Palace, "This treasure is called the Cycle Divine Palace, it is the supreme artifact of our Divine Dao, created with my endless efforts."

"If the elders enter it and use themselves as the pivot for the Star Array, then the power of the treasure would become much stronger, easily refining the demon gods inside."

"Once the Divine Palace has refined the demon gods, it will generate Innate creation divine light to nourish the elders, not only helping you recover from your injuries but also further advancing your cultivation."

This was the strategy Jiang Chen had come up with. As long as these Human Race strongmen entered the Cycle Divine Palace, the might of the treasure would surge, naturally speeding up the refining of demon gods and Innate Spiritual Treasures.

And the Human Race elders would be able to recover from their injuries quickly with the nourishment from the Divine Artifact.

"Divine Artifact? Divine Dao?"

"Is this the legendary Divine Artifact?"

"And the mysterious Divine Dao, was it also founded by the Emperor Lord?"

"No wonder the Emperor Lord was so confident earlier, considering himself not inferior to the Three Sovereigns. So that’s why, founding his own path, indeed he has the capital to feel proud, a master of a path, no less than the Three Sovereigns."

The Human Race Taoist Masters all suddenly realized, and understood why Jiang Chen was so confident earlier, certain that he would become the Human Emperor.

A master of a path is indeed outstanding, looking back through history, there have been very few such figures, he has already surpassed both Emperor Yu and Emperor Qin.

Though the Divine Artifact and Divine Dao have not been witnessed in person by everyone, they knew of their extraordinariness. Could a system that made the Heavenly Dao take proactive action to conceal all providence be simple?

Ever since the Divine Dao appeared, it has attracted the attention of many strongmen in the Prehistoric World, with numerous strongmen pursuing its trace. It had not occurred to everyone that such an extraordinary Dao, a system that even the Heavenly Dao took notice of, was pioneered by Jiang Chen himself.

This thought suddenly made everyone excited. With Jiang Chen being so extraordinary, as a master of a path, his qualifications even outshining Emperor Yu and Emperor Qin, perhaps he indeed could defy the heavens and succeed in becoming the ninth Human Emperor of the Human Race.

For a moment, everyone was filled with confidence in Jiang Chen. Founding his own path, not to mention Emperor Yu and Emperor Qin, even the Three Sovereigns had not achieved such a feat; it was too transcendental and dazzling, beyond description.

Jiang Chen, of course, was aware of everyone’s reaction. He did it on purpose, intentionally revealing some of his trump cards to give these people a dose of confidence and morale.

Otherwise, if they were not optimistic about him, always feeling that his future was doomed, it would really dampen the spirits. Only by giving them some confidence could they be spirited and exhibit their strongest stance.

After reaching the level of an Innate Taoist Master, the changes in one’s state of mind greatly affect strength; the more confident one is, the more they can exert their full power, and vice versa.

"I’ve long heard of the mysterious nature of Divine Artifacts; it’s a pity we have never had the chance to witness them. Now that the opportunity has arisen, naturally we will not refuse, we should see for ourselves just how wondrous this Divine Artifact is."

Nobody refused Jiang Chen’s suggestion, because they were all extremely curious about the Divine Artifact; they wanted to observe the mystery of this Dao and see if it could aid their own cultivation.

"I’m glad you elders agree; during your recovery, you can slowly comprehend the mysteries of the Divine Dao and Divine Artifact."

"However, entering the Cycle Divine Palace is not urgent, there’s still another matter I need to settle," Jiang Chen said with a smile to everyone, then his expression suddenly turned grave as he looked down towards the Beijulu Continent below.

He had not forgotten that on the Beijulu Continent below, there were countless members of the Demon Clan waiting for him to deal with.

"What do the elders think should be done with these members of the Demon Clan?" Jiang Chen asked everyone. Even without the demon gods, the power of the Demon Clan should not be underestimated; there were still numerous Half-step Taoist Masters and peak-level Dao Monarchs. If they joined forces, they could definitely kill a Taoist Master.
