Chapter 1730 - 1730 1720 Five Pieces of Origin

1730: Chapter 1720: Five Pieces of Origin 1730: Chapter 1720: Five Pieces of Origin Red Lotus Saint nodded slightly, with Long Yan here, plus the Ghost-faced Ferocious Dragon and other Dark Beasts, even if some unforeseen events arose, they would be manageable.

The next moment, Red Lotus Saint soared out, stood towering in the Void ahead, and after calming his mind and spirit, an immense momentum was released from within, his robes fluttering as if a peerless celestial being was descending to the mortal world.

The vast aura swept through, space trembled, and around him, storm vortexes vanished into nothingness.

This aura surpassed the Three Divine Tribulations and vaguely, it seemed comparable to that of a Demigod.

At this moment, Red Lotus Saint’s mind was immersed in a profound state, exploring the mysteries of the Demigod level and striving for the supreme Great Dao.

Time passed slowly, and Long Yan standing at a distance could feel that Red Lotus Saint was undergoing a transformation, his soul ascending.

Gradually, an hour had passed, and Red Lotus Saint’s aura also climbed to its peak, stirring the winds and clouds.

Suddenly, the firmament changed color with oppressive breath pouring down from above, enveloping the entire Western Ice Field with magnificent Tianwei.

“What an immense oppressive force!”

Long Yan’s expression altered slightly, and under this Tianwei, even he was somewhat affected; had he been in the position of Red Lotus Saint, he likely couldn’t have withstood it.

The Ghost-faced Ferocious Dragon and other Dark Beasts also endured enormous pressure, crawling on the ground, bodies trembling uncontrollably.

All of a sudden, the firmament was torn apart, as if a void gate had appeared, from which countless rules of heaven and earth surged out like the waters of the Milky Way of the Nine Heavens, crashing down with each droplet heavy enough to collapse the firmament.

“Is this the flood of rules?”

Long Yan observed the overwhelming flood of rules, his gaze trembling slightly at the sight of these most pristine Origin Forces of heaven and earth.

Three Divine Dao, millions of rules, for a Martial Artist to find just one was to step into the highest realm and cultivate the power that could penetrate heaven and earth.

If Red Lotus Saint could find his own Dao within this flood of rules, he could successfully ascend to a Demigod.

The flood of rules battered down, and Red Lotus Saint was totally submerged, enduring tremendous impacts.

In this deluge of a million rules, it was no easy task for her to find the one belonging to herself.

Fortunately, without grave risks, after about the time taken to burn a stick of incense, Red Lotus Saint successfully found her own rule and quickly integrated it.

At the same moment, the flood of rules began to recede, and the fearsome Tianwei disappeared into nothingness.

Red Lotus Saint stood in the Void, having completed an ascension, no longer bound by the Three Divine Tribulations, but now a Demigod.

“Success!”

Long Yan’s expression brightened, and inwardly he also let out a sigh of relief.

Immediately after, he gathered the Ghost-faced Ferocious Dragon and other Dark Beasts back into the Azure Dragon Ring.

Shortly after, Red Lotus Saint’s aura finally stabilized at the Demigod realm, momentum retracted, and her stunning beauty flashed a smile that could make the world pale in comparison.

“Senior, congratulations on your ascension to Demigod.”

Long Yan approached, beaming as he offered his congratulations.

“Thank you for being my Law Protector.”

Red Lotus Saint still had a smile on her face, having fulfilled her many years’ ambition of ascending to Demigod.

“It’s what I should do,” Long Yan laughed.

“Let’s return to Zhenyang Sect.

Having just ascended to Demigod, I need to go into seclusion for some time.”

Following that, Red Lotus Saint and Long Yan left the Western Ice Field and returned to the Zhenyang Sect.

After arriving back at Zhenyang Sect, Red Lotus Saint entered the Secret Chamber to go into seclusion, and Long Yan was about to visit the Dark Hall to catch up on some news when Earth Dragon Truth found him first.

“Sect Leader, there is major news.”

Earth Dragon Truth spoke to Long Yan with a serious expression on his face.

“Is it about the Demon Clan?”

Long Yan inquired.

“Roughly.”

Earth Dragon Truth said, “We’ve just received word from the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance that the Demon Clan’s true goal is the Immortal Soul Jade.”

This piece of information was not available to the Zhenyang Sect with their current methods; it was deliberately revealed to them by the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance.

“Immortal Soul Jade?”

Long Yan’s brows furrowed slightly with confusion, and he asked, “Could it be that this Immortal Soul Jade is the origin of the Emperor Domain?”

This was the first time he heard the term “Immortal Soul Jade,” and he didn’t know what it was, but he had almost guessed that it must be something like the Heart of Divine Martial.

“Exactly, the Immortal Soul Jade is indeed the origin of the Emperor Domain.”

Earth Dragon Truth explained, “Legend has it that the Emperor Domain was whole, but after a War of Destruction, it was divided into the Five Great Territories, and the Immortal Soul Jade, the origin of the Emperor Domain, was also split into five pieces.

The specific locations are known to very few.”

“The Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance speculates that the Demon Clan’s aim is to seize these five pieces of Immortal Soul Jade.

By obtaining them, one would effectively control the entire imperial area.”

The Immortal Soul Jade was the true objective of the Demon Clan.

“As expected, the Demon Clan’s schemes in the shadows are not simple,” Long Yan said gravely.

Back then, with the help of the King of Lanling, he had obtained the Heart of Divine Martial, and by merging it, he gained full control of the Shenwu Continent.

Similarly, if the Demon Clan were to obtain and assimilate the five pieces of Immortal Soul Jade, then the Emperor Domain would be completely under the control of the Demon Clan.

It turned out that the Demon Clan’s emergence and sweeping assault across the entire imperial area were just a smokescreen.

“Is there any knowledge of the whereabouts of these five pieces of Immortal Soul Jade?” Long Yan asked.

Under no circumstances must the Immortal Soul Jade fall into the hands of the Demon Clan.

“For the time being, I do not know.

The Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance did not divulge that much.”

Earth Dragon Truth shook his head; the fact that the Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance had informed the Zhenyang Sect about the Immortal Soul Jade was already commendable.

“What’s the situation in the Four Great Territories?” Long Yan inquired.

“The Demon God Emperor Palace has already routed the Demon Clan, just like in the Southern Wasteland Continent.

The Demon God Domain no longer has a foothold for the Demon Clan, but the Demon God Emperor Palace has paid a significant price.

Two of the Demigod Giants have fallen,” Earth Dragon Truth explained.

“City of the Great Emperor and Beiming Star Sea are both in a deadlock for the time being,” he added.

Long Yan nodded slightly, thinking to himself, “The strength of the Demon God Emperor Palace is indeed formidable.”

The Demon God Emperor Palace’s dominance over the Demon God Domain was for a reason; their background was unquestionably profound.

However, losing two Demigods implied that the palace had paid a steep price.

“With the City of the Great Emperor’s three great forces allied, can they not suppress the Demon Clan?” Long Yan expressed some doubt.

He had thought that the City of the Great Emperor would be the most capable of combating the Demon Clan.

After all, the Supreme Hall, Three Gods Sect, and Fairy Pool Sky Mountain were forces with significant heritage.

“Originally, the combined forces of the Supreme Hall, Three Gods Sect, and Fairy Pool Sky Mountain would give the Demon Clan no advantage, but since Supreme Hall has ulterior motives and is intentionally conserving strength, Three Gods Sect and Fairy Pool Sky Mountain are wary and dare not commit their full might, resulting in this situation,” Earth Dragon Truth said.

“The Supreme Hall has always been ambitious to rule the City of the Great Emperor alone, forcing the Three Gods Sect and Fairy Pool Sky Mountain to be on guard.”
