Chapter 330 – Xuan Yi gives medicine, Jian Chen returns home!
But even Bing Yu, back then, did not deduce the Extreme Emperor Scripture to perfection.
According to her, it was only able to reach the level of thirty-two spiritual nodes, and then could not improve anymore, and could only break through the Heavenly King barrier. However, Xuan Yi was able to perceive that as long as the divine source was sufficient thirty-two spiritual nodes, was not his limit!
“There’s no more Divine Source …”
Looking at the empty storage bag, Xuan Yi’s state of mind, even if extraordinary, could not help but show some helplessness.
The system rewarded him with the Divine Source adding with the Origin Domain war’s loot. He let Bing Yu take the Divine Source collected by sweeping the Ancient Alliance of the legacy clans.
He left the Xuan family about five thousand jins for the future development of the family’s disciples.
Other Divine Sources were sent to Xuan Yi.
All in all, 120,000 jins of Divine Source were poured into Xuan Yi’s cultivation of the Extreme Emperor Scripture (Sutra).
Such a huge amount of Divine Source was unexpectedly swept away by him in three months.
And he hadn’t even broken through the Heavenly King barrier!
If it spread to the outside world, it would cause another considerable shock.
“The System also hasn’t given out any new side quests, as for the mainline …”
Xuan Yi shook his head.
It seems that leaving the Southern Continent was imperative.
Just as Xuan Yi was pondering, Jian Chen’s figure, in a flash, arrived in the hall where he was cultivating.
Bowing towards Xuan Yi, he said.
“Master, those outsiders have been driven away, in addition, there is a God-Emperor’s edict passed down. It informs about the Southern Continent Grand Competition, and invites you for a discussion.”
A sharp light flashed in Xuan Yi’s eyes. This was not the first time he had heard this news. Back in the Origin Domain, after he slew the first Ancient Alliance Sovereign, King Zhang Ji had mentioned it briefly.
During the previous battle at the Endless Sea, among the four present-day God Emperors of the Southern Continent, one had fallen. The other God-Emperors had also suffered varying degrees of injuries.
Not only did the Great Yan Empire have a Heavenly King overseeing it, but it also had a half-step God-King ancestor from the Primordial Battlefield.
It became the largest power in the Swallow Region.
God-King wasn’t a realm. Instead, it was a respectful title referring to the half-step God-Emeperor realm!
Even though they weren’t as strong as God-Emperors, their spiritual energy nodes were already solid, turning towards the undying platform.
They could already use some divine abilities that were unique to God Kings. Their combat strength was many times greater than that of a perfected Heavenly King!
A sharp light flashed in Xuan Yi’s eyes.
This was not the first time he had heard this news.
Back in the Source Domain, after he slew the first Ancient Alliance Sovereign, King Zhang Ji had mentioned it briefly.
During the previous battle at the Endless Sea, among the four present-day God Emperors of the Southern Continent, one had fallen.
The other three God Emperors had also suffered varying degrees of injuries.
The Ancient Yuan God Emperor, who had fought Lei Ren, had fared relatively well.
Among the remaining two, one had only recently begun recovering from his injuries.
The other, the Nine Sword God Emperor, had sustained damage to the very foundation of his Immortal Divine Platform—his lifespan was running out.
Unlike the other two God Emperors, the Nine Sword God Emperor had no sect or family—he stood alone.
He had created the Nine Sword Technique, a cultivation method that directly pointed to the Imperial Realm.
Before Xuan Yi emerged, the Nine Sword God Emperor had been the strongest sword cultivator in the entire Southern Continent.
The Nine Sword Sword Intent he comprehended had already reached the pinnacle of the Third Layer of Sword Intent.
Such a God Emperor was about to leave behind his inheritance—not to mention Yuan Kings, even Heavenly Kings and Divine Kings would be tempted.
However, according to King Zhang Ji, this was merely a proposal at the time, and whether it would be carried out remained uncertain.
But now, it seemed that the decision had already been made.
After a moment of contemplation, Xuan Yi nodded and said, “I understand. I will make a trip to the Dragon Domain to see the situation there.”
Jian Chen nodded in acknowledgment, but Xuan Yi turned his gaze back to him and asked, “You mentioned before that you wished to return home. What is the reason?”
Jian Chen had already made this request the day before, hoping to end his seclusion early and return to the Azure Domain.
After a brief silence, he finally revealed the truth.
The Sword Master of the Haotian Sword Sect—the very master he had once apprenticed under in the Azure Domain—had suffered a grievous injury while exploring a secret realm and was now on the brink of death.
Jian Chen wanted to go back and see his first master one last time.
It was not an easy thing to say, considering that Jian Chen was now under Xuan Yi’s tutelage.
However, Xuan Yi did not mind in the slightest.
Let alone the fact that many prodigies from smaller domains sought out greater domains and renowned masters as they grew stronger to continue their cultivation,
Even without such customs, as a transmigrator himself, Xuan Yi did not think that visiting one’s first master had anything to do with betrayal.
If anything, Jian Chen’s behavior only made Xuan Yi more satisfied with him.
Patting his disciple’s shoulder lightly, Xuan Yi said warmly,
“So, the condition of that Sword Master is very dire?”
Be it the Haotian Sword Sect or the Azure Domain, although not much time had passed,
To Xuan Yi, they already felt somewhat distant and unfamiliar. Hearing Jian Chen mention them again even made him feel a trace of nostalgia.
Seeing Jian Chen nod, Xuan Yi pondered for a moment before raising his hand, and a streak of light flashed by.
A fiery red spiritual herb appeared.
The herb had three leaves, each adorned with patterns resembling stars.
Under the illumination of spiritual light, it reflected a profound and mysterious radiance.
“This is … Mysterious Flame Three-Star Grass?”
