Chapter 2811: An Unexpected Surprise (Two)
When the hall masters heard Jian Chen’s words, their eyes immediately lit up, but that was all, as it was merely a method to make use of the energy within the Godking grass. That was completely useless to people like them who were Infinite Primes.
Though, this would bring quite the assistance to clansmen below the Primordial realm. At the very least, they could stop treating Godking grass as virtually useless trash in their hands.
This was because what limited their breakthroughs was not energy, but their comprehension of the ways of the world.
The residual will of the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits influenced the laws of the world that the Darkstar race dwelled in to a certain degree, or perhaps it set some new laws, acting as a form of suppression against the Darkstar race and riddling their comprehension of the ways with difficulties.
However, the absorption of energy was unaffected!
“Kun Tian, surely you are aware that the thing inside Godking grass that truly benefits us is not the energy, but the fragments of laws inside. Have you obtained anything to do with the method for absorbing these fragments of laws from the planetary beast’s memories?” the tenth hall master Feng Xue asked. She stared at Jian Chen fixedly as her eyes shone eagerly.
With that, all the hall masters and vice hall masters turned their gazes towards Jian Chen too, all filled with scorching interest and anticipation.
They could all vaguely sense the laws within high grade Godking grass, but over all these years, people who had managed to benefit from high grade Godking grass were basically mythical existences. Even if they managed to benefit from it, the effects were minimal, unable to strengthen them much at all. As a result, high grade Godking grass basically became useless trash among the Darkstar race in the end. There was nothing they could do with the grass, yet it was also a pity to simply throw it away. They could only demonstrate some effects in the hands of the outsiders.
If the method that Kun Tian obtained from the planetary beast’s memories could uncover the high grade Godking grass and allow them to absorb the fragments of laws within, it would be a joyous matter worth celebrating over for not only them, but the entire Darkstar race.
Even though they still would not be able to break free from the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirit’s will, unable to reach Chaotic Prime for the rest of their lives, it could make their breakthroughs among the Nine Heavenly Layers of Infinite Prime easier.
As a result, Feng Xue’s question immediately ignited the desires of all the Primordial realm experts of the Darkstar race. Their eyes blazed brightly.
Having reached this point, the gloomy atmosphere that filled the hall due to Sen Ran’s fate had already been diluted. With their own interests presented right before them, the various hall masters and vice hall masters all chose to temporarily forget about Sen Ran’s death. The only thought in their heads currently was to quickly increase their strength.
Jian Chen smiled confidently. “Since I’ve purposefully brought up the Godking grass, it’ll obviously be beneficial to us. Hall master Feng Xue is completely correct. I have indeed obtained a method from the planetary beast’s memory fragments that allows us to successfully comprehend all the power of laws contained with Godking grass. However, this memory is incomplete, so I still need to play and experiment around with it.”
“Kun Tian, is that really the case…”
“Kun Tian, you mustn’t lie to us. I- If you really can do it, you’ll have done our Darkstar race a great service…”
…
As soon as Jian Chen stopped speaking, the Darkstar Divine Hall was immediately thrown into an uproar. The hall masters and vice hall masters there could no longer remain calm as they all ravished with joy.
Even the Darkstar Emperor’s eyes shone brightly as eagerness filled his face. He thought even further than everyone else. The Darkstar race was about to hold a great ceremony. Once the great ceremony succeeded, the Darkstar race should be able to break through this curse that prevented them from reaching Chaotic Prime if nothing went wrong. Once he reached Chaotic prime and had Kun Tian’s method assisting him, his cultivation would definitely surge ahead. He would reach the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime very soon.
Once he reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime, new abilities would emerge as an endless stream for him. By then, he would be able to completely grasp a few ancient forbidden techniques that he was unable to practise due to insufficient cultivation.
As a matter of fact, as his cultivation increased, he might even become able to guide the residual power left behind by the Grand Exalt of the Darkstar race alone and directly contend with the will left behind by the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits.
By then, it would only be a matter of time before their Darkstar race broke out of this cage.
But before all that, he had to reach the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime!
“Kun Tian, how many stalks of Godking grass do you need to experiment around with?” the Darkstar Emperor asked. He did not question Kun Tian either, as the Darkstar race had enjoyed peace for far too long, so long that even he, the emperor, had set aside all of his suspicions and vigilance.
Of course, the primary reason was because none of them could imagine that the Kun Tian they knew had already been replaced by someone else long ago.
“I need large quantities, preferably all high grade Godking grass. As for low grade and mid grade Godking grass, the effects might end up being negligible,” Jian Chen answered.
“Alright then. Since you’ve grasped a method like this from the planetary beast’s memories, you must do everything you can to complete this method. You mustn’t waste even a moment. The nine other divine halls must fully cooperate with Kun Tian,” ordered the Darkstar Emperor. By “fully cooperate” he obviously implied the nine other divine halls had to provide Jian Chen with what he needed.
That was because every single divine hall had stocked up quite a lot of high grade Godking grass.
“Yes, emperor!” the eight hall masters all answered together. They were extremely straightforward, without any reluctance at all. High grade Godking grass was not particularly rare among the Darkstar race. Moreover, there was nothing they could do with it either. If Kun Tian really managed to find a method to comprehend the laws within the Godking grass, then it would become a great opportunity for their strength to skyrocket.
Seeing how everything unfolded so smoothly, Jian Chen was overjoyed too. Originally, he had only come up with his story of obtaining more memories from the planetary beast in the depths of the Two World Mountains on the spot, but he never expected the Primordial realm experts of the Darkstar race to be so convinced by his words, giving him exactly what he wanted in such a simple manner. This was definitely an unexpected surprise.
However, as soon as he considered the limited value of high grade Godking grass among the Darkstar race, Jian Chen came to an understanding too. Perhaps they had agreed so happily, without the slightest objection or suspicion, because it had something to do with the fact that Godking grass was worth nothing in the eyes of these hall masters.
In the end, the sorrow and seriousness that came from Sen Ran’s death had been easily washed away by Jian Chen with the matter regarding the Godking grass.
After leaving the Darkstar Divine Hall, Jian Chen returned to the fifth divine hall and sat down on the hall master’s throne calmly.
Below him, Dou Wujin, Tarot, and Bing Yuan stood side by side, reporting the events of the past few days to him.
“Hall master, this is the God Tier heavenly resource offered up by the Heavenly Lightning clan of the Hundred Saint City. It’s called the Glazed Fruit of Scarlet Blood, and it’s a precious item specially for healing the soul.” Bing Yuan presented the Glazed Fruit of Scarlet Blood as soon as he had the opportunity.
