"How is this possible? How is this possible …"
The Eternal Sage King, who had been dragged out of Li Xingchen's body by the Soul Retriever, was in disbelief. He could feel that the Soul Retriever was constantly releasing a chilling aura to numb his Sage spirit.
"This is a weapon that targets the soul! And it's of a very high grade. How did you get something like this?! "The Eternal Sage King roared.
Weapons that targeted the soul were too rare. Even he had never seen one before. He had only heard of it.
Chu Kuangren had such a weapon on him, and it just so happened to be used against him, who had just successfully taken over his body!
The Eternal Sage King was so angry that his Sage spirit was trembling. "Destiny, is this destiny? Do you really want me dead?!"
"No, no, not even that Sage War could kill me. I refuse to believe that a mere chain can do anything to me!!"
The Eternal Sage King struggled with all his might as his Sage spirit trembled violently.
Chu Kuangren gently tugged on the Soul Retriever, and the chilling aura on the Soul Retriever intensified. The Eternal Sage King was corroded by that energy, and his Sage spirit was frozen into an ice sculpture.
"Chu Kuangren, what … what do you want?!"
The Eternal Sage King said weakly.
"I'm a little curious. What do you mean by Sage War? Tell me, and I might spare your life, "Chu Kuangren said.
The Eternal Sage King's expression changed. However, he was now on Chu Kuangren's chopping block. He had no choice but to listen to him if he did not want to die.
"The Sage War was a great war that took place fifty thousand years ago. All the participants were Sages, which is why it's called the Sage War!"
"Wait, all the participants were Sages?!"
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.
He glanced at Lan Yu, who was beside him. Lan Yu was also quite surprised.
"Fifty thousand years ago, all the participants were Sages. It seems that this was the war that the Sage Ruler Light participated in."
Lan Yu said. When she obtained the Scepter of Light, she had obtained some memory fragments of the Sage Ruler Light.
One of them was a terrifying war that also took place fifty thousand years ago. If she was not mistaken, it was the Sage War that the Eternal Sage King mentioned.
"Sage Ruler Light? There was indeed a Sage Ruler who participated in the Sage War. I have some impression of him, "the Eternal Sage King said.
"Continue. What is the Sage War's purpose?"
"To become a Martial Emperor!"
"In that Age of Chaos, the Great Dao did not appear. In order to become Emperors, the Saints set up a great formation and let the Saints fight inside, causing the Saints' Daos to interweave and collide. They tried to use this method to stimulate the Great Dao and make the Great Dao manifest, making the opportunity to become Emperors appear!"
The Eternal Sage King explained.
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised to hear that. "I didn't know there was such a method. To become an Emperor, you guys really put in a lot of effort. Did you guys succeed?"
"I don't know. I didn't make it to the end in the Sacred War. However, before my physical body perished, I saw the Sages' Daos interweave into golden auspicious clouds in the sky. The Great Dao manifested and the Emperor's Qi appeared …"
"Wait, Emperor Qi?"
"Yes."
The corner of Chu Kuangren's mouth twitched. "Did you guys create such a huge commotion just for one or two streams of Primordial Emperor's Essences?"
"I know what you're thinking. It's not worth it."
The Eternal Sage mocked himself. He now had forty-nine streams of Primordial Emperor's Essences, and he did not even need to start a Sacred War.
"This is the benefit of being in this era. Chu Kuangren, you weren't born during the Dharma Decline Era, so you don't know how crazy the people of that era were to become Emperors. The Sacred War was just one of the many experiments."
The Eternal Sage King said calmly.
"Alright, since the Sacred War was started and the Emperor's Essences appeared, there must be a winner in the end, right? Who was it?"
"I don't know. I've already said that my physical body perished midway. It was not until recently that my Sage Spirit awakened. As for what happened in the tens of thousands of years in between, I have no idea." The Eternal Sage King shook his head.
"I see. Where is the battlefield of the Sacred War?"
Chu Kuangren asked the last question.
"In the past, we called it the Tali Desert, but now, you guys call it … the Ancient Battlefield!"
"Oh, one of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas, the Ancient Battlefield!"
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.
The Ten Great Forbidden Areas were the most dangerous places in Firmament Star. Even a Sage might not come out alive after entering one of them.
The Ancient Battlefield was one of them. It was said that countless battles had taken place in the Ancient Battlefield. It was surrounded by ferocious qi all year round, making it extremely dangerous.
"I should go take a look when I have the chance."
Chu Kuangren felt an urge to take a risk.
He suppressed this impulse and tugged on the Soul Retriever.
The Eternal Sage King let out a scream as the Soul Retriever unleashed a terrifying chilling energy that tore at his Remnant Spirit.
"Chu Kuangren, you went back on your word!"
The Eternal Sage King stared at Chu Kuangren with hatred.
"Did I promise you anything? I said that I might be able to keep you here, but it was just a possibility, not a certainty. "
"Besides, what use is a Remnant Spirit like you to me? You even tried to harm my friend. If I don't kill you, do you think I'll keep you alive for the new year?"
Chu Kuangren curled his lips and pulled hard on the Soul Retriever.
The Eternal Sage King's Remnant Spirit instantly shattered and disappeared!
Chu Kuangren used the Eye of Revelation to check on Li Xingchen. He only felt relieved when he did not find the Eternal Sage King.
"As long as the demonic heart is not destroyed, the Eternal Sage King will not die?"
"This Eternal Soul Transference Technique can only give the Eternal Sage King one chance to possess someone else. This time, he's dead."
Chu Kuangren kept the Soul Retriever.
Li Xingchen, who was lying on the ground, slowly regained consciousness. He looked around in confusion before he jumped up and screamed while holding his head, "Eternal Sage King, get out of my body!"
"Stop yelling. He's dead."
Chu Kuangren rolled his eyes beside him.
"Brother Chu, why are you here?"
"It's all because of you."
Chu Kuangren then told him about how he found the Eternal Sage King.
"I thought this old man was your Golden Finger, but I didn't expect him to be an old man who wants your life."
Chu Kuangren said.
Although Li Xingchen did not understand what Chu Kuangren meant by Golden Finger, he knew that Chu Kuangren had saved his life.
"It's all thanks to you, Brother Chu. From now on, my life belongs to you. If you need anything, just let me know."
Chu Kuangren patted him on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to be so polite if I'm your friend."
"Brother Chu." Li Xingchen was so touched.
After settling the Eternal Sage King's matter, Chu Kuangren and the others stayed in the palace for another two days before they left.
…
"Congratulations, Host. You've drawn a Gold-Grade item, the Verdant Emperor Sword!"
On the Fairy boat, Chu Kuangren had drawn a Gold-Grade treasure sword. According to the cultivation world's classification, it was a supreme weapon.
"Why is it a sword again?" Chu Kuangren muttered to himself as he placed the Honorable Grade sword into the Sacred Emerald Sword Case. This was the seventh sword that he had drawn this month.
Although each of them was a rare treasure sword, and he had the Sacred Emerald Sword Case to nurture them, the Descendant Self Sword was more than enough for him. He did not know what to do with so many swords out of the blue.
Was he going to use them as hidden weapons?
One supreme sword at a time. Tsk, what a tycoon.
