Chapter 2551 - Location of the Fane of Origin
The Blossoms Brew was brewed by the first drop of dew on the petals of hundreds of saint flowers that Ji Fanxin collected every morning.
It was not strong, but it was incredibly fragrant and mellow.
After drinking three bottles in a row, Zhang Ruochen took out a supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin and moved it in front of Ji Fanxin.
Ji Fanxin sensed the pure power of Origin from the Divine Crystal and picked it up with a soft exclamation, “It’s a supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin. It seems that my perception is correct. The Fane of Origin is really about to come into being after disappearing for countless years.”
“You sensed it long ago?”
“I sensed it, but it’s feeble. The Fane of Origin should be very far from me,” she said.
Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly. Very far?
The Fane of Origin wasn’t in the Royal City of Hundred Clans?
What happened with the Light of Origin coming from Night Ocean, the sacred land of the Yakshas?
Zhang Ruochen said, “Can you sense the location of the Fane of Origin with the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin?”
“I can try.”
Ji Fanxin held the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin with both hands and closed her beautiful eyes. Her body emitted an increasingly bright white light, making her skin as sparkling as jade and adding to her unworldly charm.
Zhang Ruochen had already questioned the Seven-Armed Elder, but the elder was very stubborn. He claimed he had won all the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin and had never been to the Fane of Origin.
Taking this opportunity, Zhang Ruochen sent a Spirit into the Qiankun Realm.
The Seven-Armed Elder sat cross-legged under the Divine Sky-connecting Tree like an old monk meditating. He practiced an ancient spiritual power technique. He mobilized all the saint Qi from heaven and earth around him to form a unique domain.
The energy contained in the domain was so strong that ordinary Supreme Saint couldn’t get close.
The Seven-Armed Elder immediately sensed it when Zhang Ruochen appeared at the edge of his spiritual power domain. He put away the spell and opened his old eyes. He sighed, “Ruochen, you’ve imprisoned me for so long. I’ve agreed to all your conditions. Why can’t you let me go?”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to argue with him, “I’ve found a powerful Master of Origin,” he said. “She’s sensing the direction of the Fane of Origin. It’s not too late for you to tell me the truth. If you wait a little longer, you’ll be worthless!”
The Seven-Armed Elder’s eyes narrowed. He smiled and said, “Everything I’ve said to you is the truth.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. He waved his sleeve and opened the door between the Qiankun Realm and the World Gate. He let the Seven-Armed Elder see Ji Fanxin was carefully sensing the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin in her hand.
The smile on the Seven-Armed Elder’s face couldn’t hold back anymore. He quickly realized that his value was minimal.
A cultivator with no value had no meaning to be alive.
He looked slightly anxious and said, “Your Highness, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers is just a little girl. How could she sense the exact location of the Fane of Origin?”
“Actually, I’ve been to the Fane of Origin long ago. All the treasures in Fane of Origin will belong to Xue Jue Family as long as I lead the way.”
Zhang Ruochen ignored him. He looked at the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers through the World Gate.
The Seven-Armed Elder was even more anxious. He said, “Your Highness, are you blaming me for deceiving you? “Your Highness, I’ve no choice. I’m just trying to save my life. “If I had told you everything, would you have let me be alive?”
“Where is the Fane of Origin?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
The Seven-Armed Elder wanted to fight for some benefits. “Your Highness, you have to promise to spare my life. Besides, I have admired the Wargod Bloodximius for many years. I have nothing else to ask for. I just want to ask for your recommendation to let me be his apprentice, Your Highness,” he said.
“You won’t have a chance to talk anymore if you continue to talk nonsense!” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Seven-Armed Elder said, “The Fane of Origin is in a hidden macroworld. That world used to be very glorious. However, a terrible disaster happened for unknown reasons at a certain time in history. Almost all lives were wiped out. “There were more living things born millions of years later, but the inheritance was cut off. Now, it’s in decline. It had become an inferior and weak world.”
“Where exactly?”
“The Southern Sword Realm.”
Zhang Ruochen was stunned. He thought he had misheard. He asked again, “Where did you say?”
“The Southern Sword Realm! It was a macroworld hidden in the universe calculated by the Fane of Destiny Divination Division. Then, the Death Palace sent a Deathwraith Legion to attack it. “It’s a vast macroworld. Unfortunately, there aren’t many Saint Kings-level creatures. The Death Palace is disappointed,” said the Seven-Armed Elder.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “How do you know so much?”
“I…”
The Seven-Armed Elder smiled awkwardly and said, “I have some ability, and at least I’m well-informed. I received the news that the Southern Sword Realm was discovered, so I secretly followed the Deathwraith Legion of Death Palace. I plan to be the first to go there and get some benefits.”
“I was as disappointed as the Deathwraith Legion after I went there. But such a vast macroworld is comparable to some eternal and indestructible Macroworld. How could it be so barren?”
“I wasn’t willing to give up, so I used my powerful spiritual power to carefully explore that macroworld for months. Finally, I found the Fane of Origin in the ocean’s depths when I was about to give up.”
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Have you been inside?”
“Your Highness, don’t worry. Listen to me.”
He said suddenly, “Can you promise to spare my life now?”
“I won’t kill you as long as you’re telling the truth,” Zhang Ruochen said with a friendly smile.
The Seven-Armed Elder was delighted and asked, “What about being the apprentice of Wargod Bloodximius?”
“Don’t even think about it,” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Seven-Armed Elder was disappointed and a little unwilling. He said, “What about becoming the apprentice of Blood Empress?”
Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment. The Seven-Armed Elder was a top master with 69th-level spiritual power, and his gambling skills were unparalleled. He could accept it if the elder really wanted to join the Xue Jue family.
The three gods of the Xue Jue family lived side by side. They were not afraid of his betrayal.
Zhang Ruochen said, “We can discuss with Blood Empress.”
A superior like the Seven-Armed Elder could get high status and treatment by joining any force.
There are a few reasons why he chose to join the Xue Jue family. First, he had become Zhang Ruochen’s prisoner. He had no choice but to do it to save his life.
The second reason was he didn’t have much time left, but there were many Springs of Life beneath the Divine Sky-connecting Tree.
He had joined Zhang Ruochen if he joined the Blood Empress.
How could Zhang Ruochen not extend his life?
Third, everyone knew the Xue Jue family was rising. He would not suffer if he joined the Xue Jue family. Perhaps he could gain more benefits and success like others in the Xue Jue family.
Previously, the Seven-Armed Elder didn’t tell Zhang Ruochen the truth because he felt Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was too low and his status was not high enough.
If one of the gods of the Xue Jue family asked him personally, he would have told him the position of the Fane of Origin long ago to exchange for his lofty status in the Xue Jue family.
Of course, there was also a part of the reason because he still had a fantasy that Zhang Ruochen was easy to deceive and he should have a chance to escape.
Such a fantasy was naturally shattered.
The Seven-Armed Elder began to tell the story. He said, “Actually, I’m still unsure it’s the Fane of Origin. I saw many ancient ruins after I dived into the ocean’s depths. Indeed, there was an extremely magnificent fane at the densest part of the ruins.”
“That fane was extremely dilapidated. It was filled with countless strange flowers and plants I had never heard of or seen before. Some stars in that space were floating in the ocean, giving off a strange brilliance.”
Zhang Ruochen interrupted him and said, “Are you saying that stars are floating in the ocean? And there are more than one?”
“Yes! They are real stars, and they are really floating in the ocean. The biggest one is probably 30,000 miles in diameter,” the Seven-Armed Elder said with conviction.
Zhang Ruochen said, “How deep and wide is the ocean? Isn’t the ocean’s density the same as the stars’ density? How high is the water pressure at the bottom of the ocean?”
“Your Highness, you’re right. The bottom of the ocean is not a place ordinary cultivators can go. “That’s why the cultivators of the Southern Sword Realm entitle it as the Ocean of Demon. It’s difficult to enter and see the secrets inside.”
The Seven-Armed Elder continued, “The stars floating in the water should be an array. “I spent a lot of effort to break in. I triggered the array and almost died inside before I found the fane entrance. “So, I quickly went back the way I came. I didn’t dare to go any deeper.”
“Where did you get the five supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin since you haven’t entered the fane?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
“I found a Stone Fane when I passed by one of the stars. Not only did I find the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin, but I also found a treasure.”
The Seven-Armed Elder pointed to his left eye.
Suddenly, a circle of Light of Origin appeared in the eyeball of his left eye, and it emitted pure life power.
“I found a pearl in the Stone Fane and refined it into my eyeball. So, my eye can see through the Origin of Life,” The Seven-Armed Elder smiled proudly.
Zhang Ruochen said, “That’s why you were so sure the Rainbow Viburnum was alive at the Citadel Casino of the House of Enchanteurs?”
The Seven-Armed Elder smiled shamefully. “Unfortunately, I still made a mistake and lost to you.”
“You didn’t lose to me but Bai Qing’er. It was a trap she set up for you.”
Then Zhang Ruochen said, “You wouldn’t have suffered so much, and I wouldn’t have suffered so many setbacks if you had been so honest earlier.”
“It isn’t too late to know now. Your Highness, you should rush back to Xue Jue Family and ask the gods to take the treasures from the Fane of Origin in advance. Things will change if you delay!” The Seven-Armed Elder reminded him carefully.
The Seven-Armed Elder had such powerful spiritual power, but he almost died before entering the fane.
It seemed like he really needed help from the gods if he wanted to break into the Fane of Origin and take the treasures.
However, it was an extraordinary period now. Every single God in the Infernal Court was closely monitored. Lord Ming was definitely the main target of the monitor.
Lord Ming would definitely leak the news once he rushed to the Southern Sword Realm.
He needed to consider carefully what to do for the next.
