Free Web NovelChapter 313: Chapter 311: The World Is Shaken
The entrance to the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace suddenly burst open.
The Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace was built entirely from Cyan Radiance Stone, making it incredibly sturdy. Even Yinn Tianzong had previously tried to attack it, yet he couldn’t break through the entrance gate.
But now...
Aided by the God-Devouring Realm, Jiang Chen’s cultivation temporarily surged to the Heavenly Destiny Realm Ninth Stage, and his combat power skyrocketed once again.
Combined with the astonishing power of the Demon Sword Spirit Slayer!
The gate that had sealed the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace for countless ages was finally forced open by Jiang Chen.
WHOOSH—
Waves of opulent, gem-like radiance streamed out from within the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace.
Within the incomparably brilliant light was a dense concentration of Spiritual Qi!
The moment the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace opened, the Spiritual Qi throughout the Celestial Cloud Cave seemed to multiply, growing incredibly dense. It condensed into Spirit Liquid that slowly drifted and bobbed through the air.
"Benefactor!"
Wu Hao walked up to Jiang Chen’s side, a look of shock and uncertainty on his face as he hesitated.
Earlier, Jiang Chen had unleashed that terrifying domain, devouring the Essence Blood and souls of over a thousand experts from the Nine Sins Hall, which filled Wu Hao with immense fear and awe.
Jiang Chen smiled. "Wu Hao, there’s no need to be so anxious. I only kill those who wish me harm—only my enemies. As for my friends, I would never hurt a single hair on their heads!"
"Yes, I understand!" Wu Hao said quickly.
Jiang Chen nodded and glanced at the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace. The immense Spiritual Qi was still erupting from it, making it temporarily impossible to enter.
He then began to clean up the battlefield.
With a sweep of his Divine Thought, he covered a radius of nine hundred zhang!
One by one, Storage Rings flew off the bodies of the dead Nine Sins Hall experts. Jiang Chen gave them a quick scan, taking the Cyan Radiance Stones and Celestial Fate Orders, then tossed the remaining miscellaneous treasures to Wu Hao. "These should be of some use to you!"
"Thank you, Benefactor! For your kindness, I would lay down my life!" Wu Hao was moved to tears.
Jiang Chen waved his hand dismissively.
His gaze fell upon the Storage Ring in his palm. It was Yinn Tianzong’s.
The points in Yinn Tianzong’s Celestial Fate Order alone, plus the Cyan Radiance Stones he possessed, were already worth a fortune. Not to mention the many precious materials for Artifact Refining and Alchemy, numerous Spirit Crystals, and more... freeweɓnovel.cѳm
’Tsk tsk, this Yinn Tianzong was quite the rich man. 980 million points, and Cyan Radiance Stones worth 300 million. Add to that the points from the thousand-plus Nine Sins Hall experts, and this trip to the Celestial Cloud Cave has already netted me over a billion points. More importantly, I still have this Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace!’ Jiang Chen’s gaze swept toward the palace before him.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
’This Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace is worth at least two billion points!’
’Once I redeem this Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace, I’ll definitely be able to surpass Lan Haichen and claim the number one spot on the Venerable List!’
’I can’t wait to see the look on Lan Haichen’s face when he sees that I’ve taken his number one spot on the Venerable List!’ Jiang Chen was already getting impatient!
However...
He wasn’t planning on taking the top spot on the Venerable List right away.
’I’ll wait until Celestial Fate Island is about to open, then surpass him at the very last moment. I’ll let him suffer the most painful blow amidst his greatest joy!’ A cold glint flickered in Jiang Chen’s eyes.
’So, Lan Haichen, you’ve always fancied yourself the number one prodigy, haven’t you?’
’You look down on everyone, don’t you?’
’You think you’re above it all, don’t you?’
’Just as you’re about to reach the peak, I’ll be the one to drag you down from your divine altar!’
The corners of Jiang Chen’s mouth lifted into a chilling smirk.
BOOM—
At that moment, the Spiritual Qi that had gathered inside the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace finally dissipated.
The inside of the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace was completely empty.
There were no treasures inside, but for the experts participating in the Celestial Fate Hunting, the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace itself was the greatest treasure of all!
Cyan Radiance Stone worth at least two billion points!
’This Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace is too large; even a Storage Ring can’t hold it. Looks like I’ll have to use a Secret Technique to refine it!’ A certain Artifact Refining Technique taught by the Celestial Demon Emperor Venerable surfaced in Jiang Chen’s mind. It was called the "Nine Demons Forging Technique," a Secret Technique that could, in theory, refine anything in the world into an artifact.
Jiang Chen placed his palm on the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace, and black runes began to spread across its surface.
The moment they covered the entire Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace would be the moment the refining process was complete!
...
While Jiang Chen was refining the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace, news of Yinn Tianzong’s death had already spread throughout the entire Celestial Fate Ancient Realm.
An expert on the Venerable List had fallen!
For everyone in the Celestial Fate Ancient Realm, this was a massive shock, an alarm that rang like a morning bell and evening drum in their minds.
"The young venerable Yinn Tianzong... he actually fell?"
"Who on earth killed him? Could it have been one of the invincible powerhouses in the top three of the Venerable List?"
"The second-ranked venerable, Xuue Yinhao?"
"Or maybe the number one, Lan Haichen?"
Everyone was speculating.
But no one could be certain who the killer was.
「Celestial Fate Ancient Realm.」
In the Thirteenth State, within a bottomless lake, a five-hundred-meter-long black jiao-snake was brutally hacked into dozens of pieces by the sweep of a young man’s Battle Halberd. The young man flicked a spark from his fingertip to light a bonfire. While roasting snake meat, he glanced at his Communication Token and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. "Yinn Tianzong is dead? Did one of those two make a move? Lan Haichen? Or maybe Tuoba Lie?"
This was none other than the peerless genius ranked second on the Venerable List, the Sword Monarch from the Daqian Dynasty, Xuue Yinhao!
His gaze seemed to pierce the void, like two sharp swords. "To think a young venerable would fall before Celestial Fate Island has even opened. It seems this year’s Celestial Fate Hunting will be even more exciting than usual!"
「Meanwhile...」
「Third State.」
An expert stood atop a Dark Demon Dragon, wielding a Golden Holy Spear. His gaze burned like a torch, seemingly capable of incinerating the heavens.
This was none other than the Saint Martial Sword Sect’s Holy Dragon Knight, Di Tian!
He gazed into the distant sky as the Communication Token in his hand vibrated faintly. The golden-armored young man frowned slightly. "Yinn Tianzong, ninth on the Venerable List, has fallen? Someone’s already making moves on the young venerables before Celestial Fate Island has opened? In that case, I suppose it’s time for me to stretch my muscles!"
"Mu Tiexin of the Iron Wood Dynasty, ranked sixth on the Venerable List... I choose you!"
A cold smirk formed on Di Tian’s lips.
Standing on his Demon Dragon, he soared into the sky. freeweɓnovel.cøm
In the Fifth State, a figure pulsed with black light, a black halo seeming to float behind him. His hands were clasped behind his back. His robes were adorned with a black and white Yin and Yang diagram, and he exuded an unfathomable aura, as deep as the starry sky. His sharp gaze swept the horizon. "A venerable falls, and chaos begins. It is time for I, the Night Emperor, to make my move!"
「Seventh State...」
A figure in a long blue robe had eyes as deep as the stars, which flickered with a sharp light that seemed to see through the void and across eternity.
"Yinn Tianzong? Hmph. Just a piece of trash who relied on possessing someone else’s body. Still, whoever killed a young venerable would make for a decent opponent." After a pause, the blue-robed young man murmured, "I wonder where that Jiang Chen is. To dare provoke my authority... I will tear you to pieces!"
BOOM—
Where his gaze landed, a thousand-zhang-tall mountain peak vanished into thin air.
Only after his figure had retreated into the distance did a terrifying roar erupt from where the mountain had been. The earth shook, the sky lost its color, and a mushroom cloud fully ten thousand meters high shot into the sky...
The number one on the Venerable List, Lan Haichen!
With a single glance, he had razed everything within a ten-li radius to the ground!
While Yinn Tianzong’s death sent monstrous waves through the Celestial Fate Ancient Realm, within the Nine Sins Hall of the Cyan Yang Dynasty, a majestic being abruptly opened his eyes, which radiated an extreme coldness. "My son, Tianzong, is dead? No matter who killed him, I will make you pay a terrible price... Someone! Take my card to the Celestial Secret Pavilion. I want the identity of my son’s killer, no matter the cost!"
"Yes, sir!"
A figure in the shadows quietly withdrew.
The majestic being’s eyes were sharp and stern, his killing intent soaring to the heavens. "No matter who you are, I will tear you to pieces and avenge my son!"
