Jiang Chen took a deep breath. All of a sudden, he felt tremendous pressure and a strong sense of urgency. The secret of Desolate Palace was beyond his imagination and the power of Desolate Family was beyond his imagination. So many Immortals had yet to ascend to the Immortal World. No one knew how many geniuses had been secretly cultivated by Desolate Palace in the past hundred years.
All these geniuses were hidden from the other seven major families. Geniuses were born with extraordinary innate talents. Coupled with the enlightenment of Immortals and the cleansing of Immortal Qi day after day, year after year, it was hard to imagine how terrifying they had grown.
If Desolate Palace were to release these killer weapons, it would be even harder to imagine how much damage they would cause to the other seven major families. This was the ambition and secret of Desolate Palace.
But immediately, a surge of hot blood and fighting spirit overflowed from Jiang Chen's body. The stronger the enemy and the more difficult the situation, the more excited he would be. The confrontation with Desolate Palace was destined to be a hot-blooded battle. He couldn't wait to see the hidden secret weapons of Desolate Palace.
"Old friend, I can feel that you are much more terrifying than your previous life, but your current cultivation base is still far from enough to deal with Desolate Palace. In order to deal with this catastrophe, you have to grow stronger as soon as possible. There isn't much time left. Plus, the present Saint Origin World is no longer the same as before. It's not enough to rely on the means of the Greatest Saint. What you are facing now is no longer the mighty Great Saint, but the more terrifying Immortals."
Ancestor Green Lotus said solemnly.
"I know that in the eyes of I, Jiang Chen, all my enemies are the same. The strength and terror of my enemies won't be a hindrance to my progress, but a driving force. To me, the present Saint Origin World is no different from the Saint Origin World a hundred years ago. I was able to step on it in my previous life and I can still do it now. Even if there are Immortals in front of me, I will still crush them without mercy."
Jiang Chen's heart was burning with ambition. His whole body emitted the aura of a king. Every word that came out of his mouth was so confident and powerful. His casual expression could affect the minds of the people around him. This was Jiang Chen, unchanging.
"Haha! Jiang Chen is still the same Jiang Chen. The one who can fight against Desolate Palace has finally appeared. I originally wanted to let you refine the Immortal Mark, but now is not the time. If you take the Immortal Mark away, Desolate Palace will find out about it. At that time, both you and I will die tragically and the other seven major families will be doomed eternally."
Ancestor Greenlotus said.
"You are right. Now is not the right time to deal with Desolate Palace. It is already a great harvest to be able to find you and know the secrets and ambitions of Desolate Palace. Greenlotus, I will be leaving soon. If I stay here for too long, I'm afraid that the higher ups of Desolate Palace will be alerted. You have to stay here for a little longer. One day, I will personally rescue you and restore your former glory."
Jiang Chen stood up from the ground. Today, he had found Ancestor Greenlotus but he couldn't rescue him. To Jiang Chen, it was undoubtedly a depressing thing, but considering the overall situation, Ancestor Greenlotus had to stay here. Jiang Chen needed time to improve his strength. The last thing he could do was to alert the enemy.
"By the way, how is the little monk that Ran Feng's disciple that you told me about?"
Ancestor Greenlotus asked. The disciple of Ran Feng was considered as his descendant. Naturally, he would be very concerned about him.
"This boy has excellent talent and a deep affinity with Buddha. He has obtained great benefits last time and is now meditating in Greenlotus Mountain. Even if he hasn't broken through to the Great Saint realm yet, I'm afraid that he is close to it. Great Master Ran Feng's foresight is very good. He has been trying his best to cultivate Tyrant and put all his hopes on him, hoping that one day, Tyrant will truly grow up and inquire about your whereabouts."
Jiang Chen said with a smile. It had been a long time since he last saw that shameless monk, and he was starting to miss him. As for Tyrant's talent, it was no exaggeration. Tyrant had a deep affinity with the Buddha, and he would definitely become a supreme Buddha in the future. Currently, Tyrant was in Greenlotus Mountain, and he should be constantly improving.
"En, I have an Immortal Relic here. It was left behind when I failed to transcend the tribulation."
Ancestor Greenlotus flipped his palm and a golden relic appeared. The relic was surrounded by mist, which was the smell of Immortal Qi. Compared to ordinary relics, this relic was countless times more powerful. There was a fundamental difference between them.
"Although I failed to transcend the tribulation, I had already touched the threshold of the Immortal Dao. A part of the Battle Spirit in my body had evolved into an Immortal Soul. I have fused the fragments of the Immortal Soul into this Relic. Give this Relic to Tyrant as a token of my sincerity."
Ancestor Greenlotus handed the Relic to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's expression froze. He felt that the Relic in his hand was extremely heavy. Jiang Chen knew better than anyone else how precious this Relic was. A Relic that contained Immortal Soul was basically equivalent to a Dao legacy left behind by a half-step Human Immortal expert. Putting aside the Immortal Soul, the powerful energy and Buddha nature contained within it were incomparable to an ordinary Ninth Grade Great Saint's Relic.
If Tyrant could get his hands on this Relic, he would immediately undergo earth-shaking changes. He would be reborn and his cultivation base would advance by leaps and bounds. He was afraid that it would be possible for him to surpass Jiang Chen. Such a great opportunity was simply unimaginable. Even a meat pie that fell from the sky wouldn't be as good as this.
"Greenlotus, you have fused the Immortal Soul into this Relic. What about yourself?"
Jiang Chen frowned. His tone was full of worry. A Relic was the most important thing to a Buddhist Sect. Moreover, Ancestor Greenlotus had fused his Immortal Soul into it. Losing the Immortal Soul was like losing an ordinary cultivator's Battle Spirit. He was no different from a cripple.
"I'm fine. As long as I can get out of this prison, my strength will be restored to its peak. Don't judge me by my feeble appearance. I'm still far from death. I have cultivated the supreme scripture of Buddha Sect, the Great Compassion Mantra. A new Battle Spirit has been formed in my body."
Ancestor Greenlotus said with a smile.
"Good. I knew you weren't that weak."
Jiang Chen was relieved. He had never admired anyone in his previous life. Ancestor Greenlotus was the only one. As the most powerful Buddha in Buddha Sect, how could he not have some powerful means?
"Let's go. I hope that the next time I see you, I can get out of this prison."
Ancestor Greenlotus waved his hand.
"Take care of yourself."
Jiang Chen cupped his fists towards Ancestor Greenlotus. Then, he summoned the Zulong Tower again and disappeared in the blink of an eye. He came and went without a trace like a ghost.
Not long after that, Jiang Chen returned to where he was standing. His face was covered with sweat, and he looked exhausted.
"Damn it. This Zulong Tower is really a vampire. I only used the ancient tower to travel through space and it consumed so much energy. If I wait until the Zulong Tower reaches the tenth or eighth floor, I'm afraid the consumption will be unimaginable if I use it to fight."
Jiang Chen sighed. His foundation was already incomparably tyrannical. His Qi Sea was filled with Dragon Marks. His Origin Force was as abundant as the ocean. Even when he used the most powerful True Dragon Combat Skill, he had never exhausted his Origin Force.
But now, using the three floors of the Zulong Tower to travel through space had consumed more than half of his Origin Force. How terrifying was that?
"But the harvest this time is really great. The fragment of the Heavenly Saint Sword is enough to advance my cultivation to the Third Grade Great Saint. I also found the location of Ancestor Greenlotus and learned about the great secret and ambition of Desolate Palace. The most important thing now is to improve my cultivation. After I advance to the Third Grade Great Saint, I will find a way to return to the Pure Land and give this sarira to Tyrant."
Jiang Chen thought to himself. Without any delay, he began to refine the fragment of the Heavenly Saint Sword on the spot.
To Jiang Chen, the fragment of the Heavenly Saint Sword was his natal combat weapon. Refining it was an incomparably easy and effortless task. In less than ten minutes, Jiang Chen had completely merged with the Heavenly Saint Sword.
* Howl! *
The Heavenly Saint Sword let out an ear-piercing howl. The power of the Heavenly Saint Sword that had merged with six fragments was many times stronger than before. As long as he could find the last fragment of the Heavenly Saint Sword and merge it completely, the Heavenly Saint Sword would be restored to its peak state. At that time, it would become the number one Saint Weapon in the world.
Stimulated by the fusion of the Heavenly Saint Sword, Jiang Chen's cultivation had improved once again. He condensed another two thousand dragon marks, increasing the total number of dragon marks in his body to eighty-five thousand, completely stabilizing his cultivation in the Third Grade Great Saint realm.
Waves of powerful energy overflowed from the surface of Jiang Chen's body. Feeling his own power, Jiang Chen couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. To a cultivator, the feeling of being powerful was always so fascinating.
Given Jiang Chen's current ability, he could even kill a Seventh Grade Great Saint in his dragon-form. If it was a powerful genius, he could even kill a Sixth Grade Great Saint. Even if he didn't use his dragon-form, he could easily kill a Fifth Grade Great Saint genius. An ordinary Sixth Grade Great Saint wouldn't be a match for him.
In the entire Saint Origin World, he was afraid that only Jiang Chen had such a heaven defying combat technique.
In the following time, Jiang Chen didn't return to Pure Land immediately. After all, he had just arrived in Saint Origin Palace. There was no reason for him to return immediately. Furthermore, Gu Palace needed him for the time being. The internal conflict of Gu Palace had just been resolved. It was necessary for Jiang Chen to have more contact with the geniuses of Gu Palace and Demon Palace.
