Chapter 1844: Chapter 1659: The Third Holy Body Bloodline
This day was the fifteenth of the seventh month.
The day the Eternal Conference was to be held.
On the Pill Emperor Star, countless strong people had long craned their necks in anticipation, awaiting the arrival of this day.
And they had known long in advance that the venue would be the Central Continent, so the many strong people rushing in from every corner of the cosmos all dove one after another into the Central Continent, coming from the various continents and even from the vaster, mightier oceans.
Yet, strangely, when the Sunrise came and the first ray of Chenxi fell, the entire Central Continent was boiling with excitement, countless strong people gathering like clouds, but the Eternal Conference that should have been held on this very day had yet to begin.
Even the five Ancient Monarchs who had descended from the Outer Domain did not make a move, arousing shock and suspicion in people’s hearts.
Could it be that the Eternal Conference was not going to continue after all?
That made no sense. For this Eternal Conference, the Five Ancient Sovereigns had not hesitated to face the Primordial Emperor Clan, and a most terrifying monarch-level war had almost broken out; how could they shrink back at this critical moment?
Many people did not understand.
Only some who were strong enough knew that it was not that the Eternal Conference would not be held, but that the time had not yet come.
Though it was this date, it was not to be held in the daytime, but under the full moon.
This had been deduced by the Nine Great Heavenly Masters: only at that time could they better divine the location of the Fiftieth Pass.
Only at the correct time and the correct place could they truly find the Fiftieth Pass, which was hidden within the grand era.
Only then could they truly find the Great Emperor Reincarnation.
The others quickly learned the truth as well and silently awaited the coming of night.
Ye Chen, bringing Nine Snakes with him, arrived on the Central Continent for the second time.
Ever since he had learned some ancient tales about the Pill Emperor Star in the Empire Ruins of the Ancient Empire, his expression had carried a trace of gravity.
And now, seeing the heavens and earth filled with countless strong people, his unease grew stronger.
This so‑called Eternal Conference—he felt that in the end it was very likely to be an empty farce.
He very much wanted to leave, but the will that belonged to a Warrior would not let him go. He ought to face the unknown head‑on, and he was also quite eager to witness, with his own eyes, what the true Great Emperor Reincarnation would be like.
Moreover, for some reason, here on the distant Central Continent he had a special kind of sensation, as if it came from his Bloodline, giving him a feeling of great closeness and intimacy, making it impossible for him to leave. He had returned to the Central Continent wanting to search for the source of that special sensation.
Sadly, there were too many strong people on the Central Continent, their Qi Mechanisms crisscrossing. Even someone as powerful as he was could not, at this very moment, accurately sense the source of that special Qi Mechanism.
Was it War Saint Qian Xun?
A mutual resonance of the Holy Body Bloodline?
But he immediately shook his head, because this feeling was more like something thicker than blood, as if a family member, a closest kin, was calling to him through the bloodline. It made the blood in his body respond from afar and made his heart tremble.
"What exactly is it?" Ye Chen furrowed his brows, his gaze deep as he activated the Heavenly Eye and looked out over the entire Central Continent.
After pondering for a while, he ultimately gained nothing.
The other party was hidden far too deeply.
Only, during this time, he sensed one after another Qi Mechanism that was powerful and terrifying enough circulating and hiding in this place—extremely strong.
Their strength even absolutely surpassed ordinary Great Power Level experts. To the extent that quite a few of them even gave Ye Chen himself a sense of danger.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. "As expected of something that concerns the Great Emperor Reincarnation; it truly has attracted enough strong people. I’m afraid some peerless beings whom many in the past thought to have perished will all show their faces again."
This time, as it concerned the Eternal Conference, the water ran very deep. He even felt that many existences whom the world believed to have passed away and sat in death would jump out in this event.
On the other side, a young man who could be called valiant and towering tore open the void and walked out, accompanied by blazing golden light. Riding a Golden Feathered Roc and holding a Golden Battle Spear in hand, he was precisely War Saint Qian Xun.
He appeared in the center of the Central Continent, where many Outer Domain Strong People had gathered. Yet the instant he appeared, he directly alarmed everyone present.
For his Combat Energy was boundless, and he was not an ordinary Great Power. A sharp killing intent clung to him, and his eyes blazed as he fearlessly swept his gaze over the many strong people in this heaven and earth, not worrying in the slightest that such unbridled behavior would incite the fury of these equally arrogant Outer Domain Strong People.
Naturally, faced with this Great Slaughter God who was so renowned on the Ultimate Ancient Road, many strong people were wary. Fully aware of his cultivation, they glared at him but did not dare voice their anger.
"Combat Saint King, get out here!"
War Saint Qian Xun’s voice was enormous, directly echoing across the wilds, and under the effect of Dao Power it resounded over the entire Central Continent’s sky, rumbling on like thunder, extremely terrifying.
It likewise drew the gaze of strong people from all sides.
Again!
Everyone knew that this War Saint Qian Xun, who on the Ancient Road possessed the potential to be a future Overlord, though also a Combat Saint, seemed particularly targeted toward the other Combat Saint of the same lineage—the Combat Saint King—something many people could not understand.
Many speculated that there was some deep‑seated hatred between these two Combat Saints, such that this War Saint Qian Xun had all along been bitterly pursuing the Combat Saint King in order to hunt him down.
Far away on the other side, Ye Chen likewise saw the War Saint Qian Xun upon whom all gazes were focused.
There was no doubt that, with two Great Power Level Combat Saints on the same continent, for beings as incomparably powerful as they were, this distance was no different from meeting at close range. Ye Chen could clearly feel the Bloodline Power of his Holy Body Bloodline surging of its own accord, just like when he had entered that wasteland on the Eastern Barbaric Continent before.
This was the resonance between Holy Body Bloodlines.
And more importantly, Ye Chen could distinctly sense from this War Saint Qian Xun a special Qi Mechanism, drowned beneath the Holy Body Qi Mechanism and hidden very deeply. Ordinary Great Powers could not detect it at all, yet it could not be completely concealed from his Divine Sense as a Chaos Young Supreme and was thus detected.
This special Qi Mechanism made his heart tremble; it was familiar, yet however hard he racked his brains, he could not recall where he had encountered it before.
"Just who is this Qian Xun, and why does he give me such a familiar Qi Mechanism?"
However, the instant the blood in his body surged, Ye Chen immediately circulated his will and directly suppressed it, returning everything to normal.
He did not want to expose himself too early. He was used to hiding in the dark, quietly waiting for the moment to strike.
Yet at that instant, his eyes shone brilliantly as he swept his gaze across the entire Central Continent.
Because he sensed that it was not only he and War Saint Qian Xun who possessed the Holy Body Bloodline—there was a third.
PS: I still can’t make up the Chapters today; I’ll make it up later. I spent more than half the day in the hospital today. As for the suffering involved, I’m afraid only those who share the same illness can really understand. Sigh!
