Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Are you saying that you were defeated by a Star Venerable?” In another region in the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm, there was a team of martial-grade experts. Their leader had an outstanding demeanor, was tall, heroic, and had sharp facial features. He seemed quite manly!
As for the person standing in front of him, it was Xie Wanting. “That’s right, the guy has a divine body and he has a Saint Aura,” Xie Wanting said.
“But, he’s still just a Star Venerable.” Xie Yu’s face was expressionless, and he spoke coldly, “Asking me to attack a Star Venerable is a great insult to me.”
Xie Wanting had expected that he would say this, and she quickly stated the main point, “Big brother, he can comprehend the lost techniques on the Firm Standing Mountain.”
Xie Yu’s expression changed drastically, and it wasn’t just the case for him alone—it was also the case for his team members.
The reason why the Sacred Spirits had chosen the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm as a trial land wasn’t just because it had Blood Clan members. The main reason was the objects left here in the past by apex experts. There were lost secret techniques and powerful Doctrine Methods among them, and they were all called lost techniques. Moreover, there were still divine weapons left here like the Human Emperor Bow and Divine Wind Fan.
“Is the person mentioned by you the one who has a Saint Aura?” Xie Yu finally got serious.
“That is right.”
“Since he has a Saint Aura, he will surely inherit something extraordinary. If we let him show us the way, we will make great profits.”
The team members were also quite excited.
“Does this mean you have all agreed on this and want to go look for that Star Venerable?” Xie Yu looked at his men and chuckled.
The others smiled sheepishly, nodded, and admitted it.
“Fine, let’s go have a look at that Star Venerable, who has defeated a Martial Emperor,” Xie Yu said with a smile. “I hope that he won’t end up wetting his pants upon seeing us.”
The team members started laughing, and Xie Wanting also laughed along with them. As long as her cousin was willing to intervene, that guy wasn’t going to have an easy time.
…..
All people in the Martial Emperor, Martial Saint, Martial Sovereign, and Martial G.o.d Realms were called martial-grade experts. Moreover, those four Realms were also divided into primary stage, intermediate stage, top stage, and apex stage.
Xie Wanting, who was defeated by Jiang Chen, was just at the Martial Emperor Realm’s primary stage. However, one’s Realm Level alone wasn’t enough to discern one’s fighting prowess, and it was the same as in the Star Venerable Realm. However, it still was not as exaggerated as in the Star Venerable Realm, and challenging one at a higher Realm Grade was more difficult.
When Jiang Chen was a three-star expert, he could depend upon his Constellation Palace’s Four Qi to defeat people at a higher level—he could defeat seven- and eight-star experts. In the Martial Realm, it was extremely difficult to overcome even two realm level’s disparity, and that was why Jiang Chen’s feat of defeating Xie Wanting was like a fantasy story.
…..
At this moment, Jiang Chen was walking around in a castle, and he was beginning to understand the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm’s situation. The Creation Divine Tree had recognized someone as its master just recently and wasn’t familiar with the b.l.o.o.d.y Sea Realm.
Jiang Chen found out an interesting rumor that many Hibernators were awakening at the same time. But such a rumor didn’t have high credibility. What was discussed the most now was related to the Saint Aura. Many people envied the guy, while there were also some full of expectations for him. They wanted to see what the person who got the Saint Aura looked like. Moreover, it was also rumored that the person who got a Saint Aura had gotten the world’s recognition, and he would soon have a fortuitous encounter. If they could accompany such a guy and form a team with him, they would surely manage to reap many benefits.
After a short while, Jiang Chen bought a map so that it would be easier for him to make a plan for his training.
“Young master, our young miss wants to invite you over.” A pretty woman, with a pleasant voice, came to Jiang Chen’s side. When Jiang Chen looked at her, he noticed that she wore a bright smile, and it didn’t seem like she harbored any malice toward him. He couldn’t help but be slightly curious about her.
“Divine Recluse Clan!”
The Wan family sisters noticed something, and their expressions changed. When Jiang Chen followed their gazes, he witnessed that there was a pattern on the back of the young girl’s hand. It was a picture of a group of clouds, and it seemed like it possessed a mystical power. Both Jiang Chen and the Wan family sisters managed to recognize the woman’s ident.i.ty. She was from the Divine Recluse Clan, whose members claimed to be descendants of the Divine Clan.
The Divine Clan was a special clan, and its status in people’s eyes wasn’t any different than the Dragon Clan. But it was still even more mysterious than the latter, and many people couldn’t help but wonder whether it really existed. The Divine Recluse Clan stated that they were the descendants of the Divine Clan and had divine blood flowing in their veins. But this clan always kept a low profile, and they created an independent world for themselves and didn’t have any interactions with the outside world.
“Show the way!” Jiang Chen wanted to know what they wanted. The Wan family sisters had also followed them because Jiang Chen didn’t give them any other instructions. After a short while, they reached a multi-story building. There was a woman sitting by a second floor window. She had snow-white skin and was wearing white clothes. The Wan family sisters, who had followed Jiang Chen, couldn’t help but envy her great beauty.
“Please take a seat!” When Jiang Chen approached the table, the white-clothed woman spoke, while the woman who showed the way led the Wan family sisters to the table.
After Jiang Chen sat down, he noticed that the white-clothed woman also had the Divine Recluse Clan’s special pattern on the back of her hand.
“Young Master, you have something which our clan wants,” the white-clothed woman spoke bluntly, without beating around the bush.
“Are you talking about this thing?” On the way, Jiang Chen had already realized what was going on, and so he immediately took the divine egg out of his Storage Spirit Artifact. This was the egg that he had gotten from the piece of amber. After Jiang Chen took out the divine egg, the while-clothed woman became quite excited, and, even though she tried to hide her excitement, it was still apparent because her pupils got wide.
“That is right!” The while-clothed woman extended her slim hand toward it.
Upon witnessing that she was empty-handed, Jiang Chen wondered whether she wanted to inspect it, and ,after he mulled this matter over, he decided to hand over the egg to her. After the while-clothed woman received the egg, she started caressing it gently and fondly.
“Young master, thank you!” The woman didn’t forget to thank Jiang Chen.
“Wait!” Jiang Chen realized that something was fishy, and he said, “Didn’t you want to make a deal with me?”
Upon hearing this, the while-clothed woman looked at him, while wearing a weird look, as if she just heard something rude. But she still revealed a smile, and spoke politely, “The divine egg belongs to our Divine Recluse Clan. So, what deal are you talking about?”
Jiang Chen took a look at the divine egg in her hand and chuckled bitterly.
“Does this mean that all divine eggs in the world belong to your clan, regardless of who possesses them?” Jiang Chen asked.
The while-clothed woman was confused, and she furrowed her brow. But she still nodded.
“If someone helped you look for it, wouldn’t you give him any reward?” Jiang Chen was surprised by her nod.
“Don’t you think that it’s an honor to serve the Divine Recluse Clan?” The while-clothed woman spoke earnestly.
“I don’t need such an honor. Please give me back my stuff.” Jiang Chen extended his hand. He had a.s.sumed that he could exchange the egg for something useful.
“It belongs to my clan.” The while-clothed woman placed the divine egg in her Storage Spirit Artifact warily and revealed a hostile look.
“He, he, it’s your Divine Recluse Clan alone who boasted that you are related to the Divine Clan, and you don’t have any proof,” Jiang Chen spoke while sneering coldly.
“How daring!” The while-clothed woman was displeased by such words and said, “You will suffer divine punishment.”
“I’m ready for it. Now, give me back my stuff.” Jiang Chen didn’t plan to continue arguing with her.
“Do you want to wage war against the Divine Recluse Clan?” The while-clothed woman spoke and flew out of the window.
Jiang Chen had a.s.sumed then that she wanted to escape. But he quickly heard her voice. “Big brother, there is someone who wants to steal my stuff.”
