Several hours later, Shen Jian's breakthrough finally came to a successful end. As the powerful aura around his body slowly withdrew, his tightly shut eyes abruptly opened at this moment.
The moment Shen Jian opened his eyes, a light that seemed almost tangible flashed through his eyes. It possessed an extremely sharp sword intent. When the six elders of the Mo clan met his gaze, all of them could not help but shudder uncontrollably. Just from Shen Jian's gaze, the six of them felt an invisible pressure.
The patriarch's eyes narrowed as well. His gaze towards Shen Jian immediately underwent a drastic change. There was even some sternness in his eyes.
"This person is not weak. Although he has only just broken through to early Deity, there's probably very few early Deities who are his opponent," thought the patriarch. Before Shen Jian could reply, he clasped his fist towards Shen Jian with a smile and said, "I am the patriarch of the Mo clan, Mo Yan. Congratulations on breaking through to Godhood, brother Shen Jian. From today onwards, our Dong An Prefecture will have another Godhood expert."
The patriarch of the Mo clan spoke extremely politely. Coupled with his current expression and attitude, people who did not know better would really believe that the two of them knew each other long ago, and that their relationship was quite deep.
Shen Jian also clasped his fist towards the patriarch, "You're being too polite. There are quite a few Godhood experts in the Dong An Prefecture. I've only just reached Godhood, so I'm not worth mentioning. It's just that we've caused quite a lot of trouble in the past few days that we've been healing in your clan. "
The patriarch waved his hand and said without minding at all, "What trouble? Brother Shen Jian is far too polite. It's just that my daughter, Yan 'er, doesn't know any better. She actually didn't inform me beforehand that brother Shen Jian would be visiting my Mo clan so that I could properly entertain brother Shen Jian." With that, the patriarch glared at Mo Yan viciously.
Mo Yan stuck out her tongue and made a funny face at the patriarch. However, she was overjoyed inside. She had never thought that she would end up like her father, saving a Godhood expert from outside.
After exchanging some pleasantries with the patriarch, the patriarch straightened his face and said, "I truly feel apologetic for my lack of hospitality this time. May I ask which sect or clan brother Shen Jian comes from? I will definitely pay a visit in the future and personally apologise to brother Shen Jian."
Whether it was Jianchen or Shen Jian, they both understood that the patriarch wanted to investigate their backgrounds.
"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint the patriarch. We've only just arrived in the Saints' World, so we don't belong to any organisation," Shen Jian said.
The patriarch was surprised when he heard that. He asked in surprise, "You've only just arrived in the Saints' World? Have you come up from a lower world? "
"Yes," Shen Jian replied.
Xi Yu's gaze narrowed as well. Clearly, there was a trace of doubt in her eyes. On the other hand, the other elders looked at Shen Jian with a trace of surprise as well.
The patriarch was overjoyed. He clasped his fist towards Jianchen and Shen Jian and said, "If you think highly of me, why don't you stay in my Mo clan for now? My Mo clan is small, but we do have a God. We still have a place to stand in the Andong province."
Jianchen had never thought about staying in the Mo clan. Now that Shen Jian had recovered and reached Godhood, he was already prepared to leave the Mo clan with Shen Jian. Just when Jianchen wanted to turn down the patriarch's invitation, Shen Jian beat him to it, "We just happen to have nowhere else to go, and we're not familiar with the Saints' World either. If the patriarch doesn't mind, we can only trouble you for a few more days."
The patriarch rejoiced inside. He waved his hand without minding it at all, "It's no trouble at all. Brother Shen Jian and brother Jianchen can stay in my Mo clan for as long as you want …"
Just like that, Shen Jian and Jianchen stayed in the Mo clan for now. Now that Shen Jian had reached Godhood, his status in the Mo clan was no longer the same as before. In order to show how much importance he attached to Shen Jian, the patriarch constructed a seventh, majestic hall in the Mo clan for Shen Jian to cultivate in. Normally, only the elders of the Mo clan could possess such a hall.
Aside from that, the patriarch also arranged for a group of Origin realm experts to guard the surroundings of the hall for Shen Jian. Of course, this was not for surveillance. Instead, it was to show off the supreme status of Godhood experts in the Mo clan.
At this moment, Jianchen and Shen Jian sat before each other in the seventh hall of the Mo clan.
"Originally, I planned on leaving the Mo clan after you recovered so that I could venture out, but why did you choose to stay? Our comprehension of laws far exceeds our personal strength. As long as we have enough cultivation resources, our strength can rapidly increase. Staying in the Mo clan will only hinder our cultivation, "Jianchen asked in confusion. Every step after Godhood required a corresponding comprehension of laws. Both he and Shen Jian had reached the major achievement of Sword Origin. That was enough for the two of them to cultivate to God without any obstructions. All they lacked was a tremendous amount of cultivation resources.
Although they could also absorb the Origin Energy between heaven and earth to increase their strength, the speed would be much slower.
"Jianchen, the reason why I chose to stay in the Mo clan is because there are still people waiting for us in the lower world. Aside from increasing our strength, we need to gain a firm foothold in the Saints' World in the next ten thousand years so that we can pave the way for the people behind us. The Mo clan is a good choice." Shen Jian said. He looked at Jianchen and said, "And you still have some problems with you. Once you lose your mind, you won't be able to distinguish between friend and foe. I won't be able to stop you, and I might even die to your hands."
Jianchen fell silent when he heard that. He thought about the people waiting for him in the lower world. Not only was there his wife, but there were also his parents and many good friends. Although he could come across some fortuitous encounters in the outside world, it was also life-threatening. He could die at any time. It did not matter if he died, but if he did, it would be even more difficult for his wife, children, and parents to survive when they came to the Saints' World.
Aside from that, the lives of Shangguan Mu 'er, Nubis, Xiao Ling, Xiao Jin, the White Tiger, Ruijin, Honglian, Black Fish, and so on in the Bright Moon Divine Hall rested on his shoulders. If he died, all of them could die as well.
Jianchen sighed inside. With a flip of his hand, a Space Ring appeared in his hand. He took out all the low quality Godhood crystals he had obtained from Lu Fei and said, "If I want to break through again with my Chaotic Body, I need an extremely tremendous amount of energy. These divine crystals are completely useless to me, so take them. We need to increase our strength as quickly as possible right now."
Shen Jian held the thumb-sized divine crystals and sensed the pure origin energy within them. His eyes immediately lit up, and he said, "If I have enough divine crystals, I can reach mid Deity in the shortest amount of time possible."
