Chapter 978: 717 Human Race Ancestral Artifact (5000)_3

"How is this possible? Isn’t this object long extinct? Why would it appear in your hands?"

Suddenly, Huang Jiao the Immortal recognized the origins of the clump of earthy yellow qi in Jiang Chen’s hand; it was unmistakably the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens, which had long vanished from the Prehistoric World. He couldn’t help but his face changed drastically, and he cried out in shock.

The Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens is a true creation divine object, possessing the great ability to turn decay into magic. Its value is comparable to the ten top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasures of the Prehistoric World.

Of course, that wasn’t what shocked Huang Jiao the Immortal the most. What truly astonished him was the significance of the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens to the Human Race. To some extent, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens was like the Ancestral Whip of Humanity, both ancestral artifacts of the Human Race.

However, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens had long disappeared, leaving only the Ancestral Whip in existence; hence, the sole ancestral artifact of the Human Race was the Ancestral Whip. But should the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens emerge, it would immediately replace the Ancestral Whip’s position.

Because compared to the Ancestral Whip, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens better represented the Human Race. The reason the Human Race stands out from the numerous acquired races and even surpasses the Innate races is precisely because the Human Race was molded by Empress Nuwa using the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens.

The Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens is indeed the womb of the Human Race, its very foundation, and the well-deserved ancestral artifact of the Human Race.

The Xuanyuan Cauldrons, however powerful, how could they contend with the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens? Even if Jiang Chen’s Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens hadn’t yet reached its peak state and was only a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, it could still suppress the Xuanyuan Cauldrons.

The Mystic Sect calculated everything, but they didn’t account for Jiang Chen possessing that long extinct Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens. This led to their plan, which was considered perfect, completely falling apart.

It’s not the Mystic Sect’s fault, after all, who could have predicted such a thing?

Moreover, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens that Jiang Chen obtained was related to the Taoist Ancestors; not even the great Divine Transcendents of the Mystic Sect could have divined a hint of it, even if they tried their hardest.

In the past, Jiang Chen accepted the Jade Emperor’s invitation to accompany the Seven Fairies to the secret realm of the Five Elements, transformed from the palm of the Demon God of the Five Elements. It was there that he obtained the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens. And that secret realm was left by the Ancestor Hongjun.

The initial Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens bestowed to Empress Nuwa by Ancestor Hongjun was obtained there.

Without Jiang Chen revealing it, who could have guessed?

It can only be said that the Mystic Sect was unlucky to have encountered Jiang Chen. They calculated everything but ultimately could not triumph over Jiang Chen’s fate, which just happened to land in his hands.

If there were no Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens, Jiang Chen would indeed be in trouble today; he might not necessarily have been able to break the Xuanyuan Cauldrons. As it is said, fate is ordinary, and there is nothing beyond that.

...

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Jiang Chen did not answer Huang Jiao the Immortal’s question; instead, he continued to throw punches enveloped with the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens.

Jiang Chen unleashed Pangu’s divine might to its limit, mixing the power of the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens with his own. With every movement, he carried an overwhelming momentum as if countless divine mountains were pressing down, suppressing all.

At first, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens Jiang Chen obtained was only nine granules, the lowest grade of Innate Treasures, not even qualifying as Innate Spiritual Treasures.

But later, as Jiang Chen’s cultivation constantly improved, the quantity of Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens increased. By the time he fought the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord, it had evolved into a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

And now, with Jiang Chen becoming the Human King and nurtured by the fate of the Human Race, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens underwent further transformation. Although still a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, it had reached the peak of high-grade and could ascend to a supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure at any moment.

Rumbling!

Jiang Chen threw his punches, the eighty thousand granules of Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens rolling like a myriad of stars, crushing towards the Xuanyuan Cauldrons with overwhelming force.

The more granules of Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens, the stronger its power. Eighty thousand granules represented the limit of a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Once the number reached eighty-four thousand, it would signify the ascension of the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens to a supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Should it reach the number of one Yuan, one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred granules, it would indicate that the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens had returned to its peak state, becoming one of the top Innate Spiritual Treasures among the ten great treasures of the Prehistoric World.

If it exceeds the number of one Yuan, then the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens would advance to an Innate Treasure. But that is extremely difficult; even in the hands of the Taoist Ancestors for countless years, it never reached this point. Afterward, it was in the hands of Empress Nuwa for countless years and still did not ascend.

If it weren’t for this, when the Human Race was born, they wouldn’t have been an acquired race, but an Innate race with an Innate Dao body. An Innate Treasure and an Innate Spiritual Treasure are two entirely different concepts.

If the initial Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens used to create humanity had been an Innate Treasure rather than an Innate Spiritual Treasure, then the Human Race would certainly be more prosperous today.

But there’s no rush. If it’s not innate, it can still be compensated in later stages. As long as Jiang Chen elevates the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens in his hands to an Innate Treasure, he can then reflect it back onto the Human Race, immediately improving the constitution of the Human Race as a whole, stepping up a level.

At that time, the Human Race will usher in a new golden age.

...

...

"Break!"

In just a short moment, Jiang Chen unleashed countless punches, and the Xuanyuan Cauldrons collided with the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens numerous times.

Finally, with a loud bang, the Xuanyuan Cauldrons were defeated by the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens and were sent flying away from Huang Jiao the Immortal’s side.

And at this moment, without the protection of the Xuanyuan Cauldrons, Huang Jiao the Immortal’s true form was finally exposed to Jiang Chen.

"Next, please enlighten me, great immortal." Jiang Chen retracted his fists and stood opposite Huang Jiao the Immortal, speaking to him politely.

Repelling the Xuanyuan Cauldrons didn’t mean the battle was over; on the contrary, it had just begun. Without the protection of the Xuanyuan Cauldrons, it simply meant that Jiang Chen had earned the right to fight Huang Jiao the Immortal.

As for the outcome of the Mystic Sect’s plan, whether it was a success or a failure, it still depended on the result of this battle.

Of course, without the interference of the Xuanyuan Cauldrons, Jiang Chen had far fewer concerns. He no longer needed to hold back, could unleash all his Divine Abilities, and could go all out in his battle against Huang Jiao the Immortal.
