Translator: 549690339
Back when the battle at the Sunset Mountain erupted, Chen Luoyang had sent his clone, Daoist Banhai, to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty’s imperial capital, Tianfeng City, to make preparations.
Regardless of the outcome of the battle at the Sunset Mountain, he planned to take advantage of the chaos to enter the city while the Empress of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty left Tianfeng and Xu Peng went to investigate the Netherworld God. He would first find the treasure of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty that Han Shang, the King of Fuyao, had been eyeing.
Although he didn’t know what it was exactly, his intuition told him that it should be quite beneficial.
After the battle at Sunset Mountain and the battle that followed, he had won a complete victory. Naturally, he had swept through the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
If there were any twists and turns in the middle, Chen Luoyang would first obtain the things in Tianfeng City for future use.
But then again, after he really got his hands on the items, he felt that there was something mysterious about the copper plate and the Thousand Soul Pearl.
At this moment, as the copper plate spun, wisps of illusory smoke seemed to leak out of the Thousand Soul Pearl.
Chen Luoyang stared at the cloud and mist and carefully sensed and analyzed it. After confirming that there were no traps, he stepped into the cloud and mist.
As the acupoints all over his body opened and closed, the smoke disappeared into Chen Luoyang’s body.
He closed his eyes and sensed carefully. After a moment, he suddenly shook his head.
Sure enough, it was something left behind by Chen Chuhua again, just like the black coffin back then…
Chen Luoyang had full suspicions that if the Han merchants had succeeded in snatching the items from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, they would have been killed by Chen Chuhua using Ji Tianqiong’s identity in the blink of an eye. Then, they would have left the Thousand Soul Pearl and copper plate in the Black Water Palace to wait for Chen Luoyang to come.
Of course, that would be too obvious. She might think of another way to make it less obvious, just like how she left the Thousand Soul Pearl and the copper plate at Yanran Mountain and Dongzhou.
Chen Luoyang exhaled slowly and separated the Thousand-Soul Pearl from the copper plate. He didn’t continue to absorb and refine the spirit essence contained within.
It was harmless and could help him quickly advance to the 21st realm, the realm of the utmost man.
Han Shang had noticed the value of the Thousand Soul Pearl, but the true value of the pearl might be beyond his expectations.
If Han Shang could absorb it steadily, he would probably be able to break through to the twentieth realm in an instant.
To the current Chen Luoyang, this was a great supplement.
However, there was no rush. He still needed to continue observing and studying.
After Chen Luoyang put away the treasure, his eyes flashed and reflected the image of Fuxi.
He took out the Great Sky Spear left behind by the Human Emperor and started to deduce it carefully.
Chen Luoyang had always been suspicious as to why the Demon Venerable of the Mountain and Sea Realm had been thinking about this treasure.
He had a feeling that the other party was not as simple as cultivating.
It wasn’t impossible for the demons to borrow the treasures left behind by the Human Emperor to cultivate, but Chen Luoyang’s intuition told him that something wasn’t right.
Before this, he had been trying to figure out the Jun Tian Ge, but he didn’t gain anything. Now that his cultivation had increased, he seemed to be different when he tried to figure out the Jun Tian Ge.
Chen Luoyang carefully pondered over the principles and tried to figure out the clues. After a long while, he stood up and left his place of cultivation.
After instructing Su Wei and the others to complete their tasks, Chen Luoyang went straight into the void and exited the Mortal Dust World.
In the void, Chen Luoyang studied the Jun Tian Spear while paying attention to his surroundings.
He vaguely felt that the Jun Tian Spear seemed to contain some kind of guidance that pointed to a certain place.
This made Chen Luoyang have a plan in his heart.
His previous intuition was right. The Jun Tian Ge really had a hidden secret. Perhaps this was the real reason why the Demon Venerable wanted the Jun Tian Ge.
However, how did the Demon Venerable know?
Did the Demon Lord discover the profundity of it?
Chen Luoyang couldn’t be sure at the moment, so he could only follow the guidance of the Jun Tian Spear and roam the vast void, hoping to discover something.
Unfortunately, perhaps because his current cultivation level was not high enough, he still could not find anything valuable after exploring for a long time.
Chen Luoyang frowned in his heart, but he wasn’t discouraged. He continued to search carefully.
After an unknown period of time, his heart suddenly moved.
However, it wasn’t a flash of inspiration. Instead, he was even more confused.
The guidance in the Jun Tian Ge seemed to become chaotic.
Chen Luoyang analyzed it carefully and discovered that this thing seemed to be pointing in two different directions.
Did this mean that one was right and one was wrong, or both were right, or both were wrong?
Chen Luoyang didn’t know at the moment. He could only stabilize his mind and try one by one.
In the end, after spending a lot of time, he still couldn’t get to the point of one, and the other made him feel like he was being obstructed.
This was better than not having any gains, and Chen Luoyang’s spirit was roused.
He temporarily put the first one aside and focused on the second one.
After constant contemplation and pursuit, Chen Luoyang felt that the fog in front of him was gradually dispersing.
It was not necessarily someone who was blocking his perception. It was more like the other party was moving and constantly changing positions.
Was it some kind of life?
Chen Luoyang wasn’t certain, but he patiently continued to probe. He gradually discovered that although the other party was highly elusive and erratic, it seemed to follow a certain pattern and maintain a certain connection with certain existences.
.. It was like maintaining a certain connection with the mortal world?
Furthermore, Chen Luoyang felt that this existence was becoming more and more familiar.
He stood in mid-air and pondered for a long time without saying a word. His mind kept going through all kinds of memories like lightning.
Finally, he matched the familiarity with the shallow impression in his memory.
However, the result surprised him.
That sword?
The Mingguang Ancient Sword that was related to Ying Qingqing and hung outside the Human Realm?
How could this thing be related to the Jun Tian Spear left behind by the Human Emperor?
Or was Ying Qingqing related to the Human Sovereign Realm?
It didn’t make sense. If it had something to do with the Human Sovereign Realm, then the Supremacies of the other realms shouldn’t have no reaction at all.
Back then, Ying Qingqing had summoned her sword intent at the moment of life and death, and her opponent who had died in battle was a Martial Saint at the sixteenth realm.
In the eyes of the Supremes of the Six Realms, it was not worth mentioning. However, the sword light that pierced through the mortal world from the outside to the inside and then descended into the Divine Shining Vast Land was at least at the level of a Martial Venerable. If it was related to the Human Sovereign or the Jun Tian Ge, at least the Demon Venerable would care, right?
Even if they didn’t arrest him or check him, it was inevitable for them to ask a few questions during the conversation. However, the Supremacies of the other realms, including the Demon Venerable, didn’t have any reaction at all, as if it was just a very ordinary battle between the Martial Venerables in the Red Dust.
However, it seemed that it was not the case at all. It might have been an underestimation to say that the sword was at the level of a Supreme Realm expert.
Chen Luoyang was filled with doubts. He forced himself to calm down and recall carefully.
Unlike Xu Ruotong, he was not the direct descendant of the Human Emperor. However, he had absorbed the essence of the Human Emperor’s Mausoleum, wielded the Juntian Dagger, the Earth Overturning Seal, and the three hand-written decrees of wood, metal, and earth. His understanding of the Human Emperor’s martial arts inheritance should be second only to Xu Ruotong.
Logically speaking, that mysterious Mingguang Ancient Sword had nothing to do with the inheritance of Renhuang…
It was said to be another treasure that the Human Emperor had secretly refined when he was alive, but there was no trace of the intent of the Human Emperor’s martial arts inheritance on the sword at all. This was obviously illogical.
If there was a possibility, perhaps this ancient sword had come into contact with the Jun Tian Ge or the Human Sovereign Realm.
Of course, a simple contact would not be like this. It should be a secret but deep contact.
In other words, the Jun Tian Dagger pointed in two directions. On one side was the Mingguang Ancient Sword, and on the other side was what?
Chen Luoyang didn’t stay in the void any longer. He pondered as he returned to the Mortal Dust World.
The Jun Tian Spear alone was not enough to lock onto the position of the Mingguang Ancient Sword.
Since that’s the case, the person who tied the bell has to solve it. Let’s just leave the problem to the professionals.
After returning to the Mortal Dust World, Chen Luoyang headed to the Dark Grotto-heaven.
“Is there a way to find that ancient sword?” Ying Qingqing looked at Chen Luoyang in astonishment.
” Yes. ” Chen Luoyang nodded slightly. ” That’s right. However, I need you to travel with me. ”
Ying Qingqing took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She didn’t answer immediately.
After she calmed down, she nodded.”I’ll go with you.”
“Relax.” Chen Luoyang flicked his sleeves and swept Ying Qingqing up, bringing her out of the mortal world.
With his care, Ying Qingqing could also walk in the void.
Chen Luoyang handed the Jun Tian Spear to Ying Qingqing.
After Ying Qingqing received the Jun Tian Ge, she focused her mind and calmed her heart.
After a long time, a light seemed to gradually appear between her eyebrows.
When Chen Luoyang saw this, he pointed at the other party’s glabella.
The scattered light began to gather and finally gathered into a point, no longer dissipating.
Chen Luoyang withdrew his hand, and Ying Qingqing opened her eyes. Her gaze was a little dazed and dazed, but she quickly regained her clarity.
“I can roughly find the location.” she said softly.
“Let’s go.” Chen Luoyang nodded.
He followed Ying Qingqing’s instructions and teleported in the void.
The mysterious Mingguang Ancient Sword hung in the sky. It seemed far away, but after finding the right ” door ” and pushing it open, everything was right in front of him.
A bright radiance soon appeared in Chen Luoyang and Ying Qingqing’s line of sight, illuminating the surroundings.
It was like the first beam of light in the universe.
At the same time, it was pure, but it also repelled all other things. It did not contain warmth and heat. It was just the purest light.
In the light, there seemed to be an ancient sword flashing with bright light.
This time, it wasn’t through Ying Qingqing’s illusory perception, but face to face.
Ying Qingqing stared at the sword light in a daze. Her gaze was blank, but she could not help but reveal a pained expression.
In the distance, the Mingguang Ancient Sword in the void seemed to tremble slightly.
Chen Luoyang stretched out his palm and placed it on the back of her heart to help her stabilize her soul and body.
Ying Qingqing regained her senses and was about to speak when Chen Luoyang’s expression changed slightly.
With the fastest speed, he pointed at Ying Qingqing’s forehead and dispelled the light there. Then, he snatched the Jun Tian Spear and cut off Ying Qingqing’s connection with the treasure.
The light faded away and the Jun Tian Spear left their hands. The scene in front of the two people suddenly changed, as if they had retreated from an invisible “door”.
Ying Qingqing looked at the world in front of her in astonishment as it returned to the appearance of the void outside the mortal world. She was puzzled.
Chen Luoyang didn’t say a word as he brought her back to the mortal world.
On the other side of the void, a demonic wind suddenly blew.
An incomparably terrifying will appeared in the dark void of the universe along with a bloody storm.
“Is it Old Devil Tang and Jun Tian Ge? Or someone else?” The Demon Venerable’s voice echoed in the void as he muttered to himself.
