Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3407: Myriad Source Qi

Jian Chen did not get an answer from the Wind Venerable about the Infinite Cataclysm, but he continued to think about it uncontrollably. He had already developed numerous doubts.

At this moment, many thoughts that had never occurred to him now crossed his mind, which was about the Grand Exalts that the Saints’ World had once produced.

At the very least, up until now, he knew there were many historical Grand Exalts. The ancient Skywolf was one of them.

Among these Grand Exalts, he was certain that the Grand Exalt of the Darkstar race had been slain by the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits. He was the type that had fallen in battle.

Then why did the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits perish? Was it also due to battle?

Even if he set aside these Grand Exalts that experienced battle, he still knew some historical Grand Exalts that did not have any records of them becoming involved. The Saints’ World had no record of their deaths.

Of course, he could not eliminate the possibility that information just happened to be lost. However, if the mystery of Grand Exalts perishing was only missing an example or two, that was not enough to raise people’s attention.

However, the disappearance of the other Grand Exalts happened to become a mystery, aside from ones that fell in battle, which encouraged deeper thought.

“After reaching Godhood, you completely break free from the restraints of lifespan and truly thrive with the world, so how do Grand Exalts that are clearly stronger than Godhood cultivators pass away in meditation?”

For a moment, Jian Chen’s imaginations ran wild, but since the Wind Venerable refused to divulge anything, he could not force him to answer. He could only suppress his thoughts and take out the Divine Armour of Heavenflight he had obtained from the Wood Spirits.

With a flip of Jian Chen’s hand, the damaged Divine Armour of Heavenflight appeared from thin air. It was dim, without any of the might that a high quality god artifact was supposed to possess.

“There are many records regarding the Divine Armour of Heavenflight in our clan. During that age, it possessed extremely great renown, basically only second to the sovereign god artifacts.” The Wind Venerable’s expression was mixed as he gazed at the Divine Armour of Heavenflight in Jian Chen’s hands.

“The quality of the Divine Armour of Heavenflight has already reached the peak of high quality god artifact. Its past owner was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime. However, its most powerful aspect is not its defence but its concealing ability.”

“You’ve witnessed this ability from Bloodslaughter before, but just Bloodslaughter’s strength is obviously insufficient to push its true functions to the limit. Moreover, coupled with the fact that the Divine Armour of Heavenflight has already shattered, what you saw in the past was less than a hundredth of what the armour was capable of.”

“When in perfect condition, even Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes will struggle to detect the Divine Armour of Heavenflight once it turns invisible. Since you’re turning to the Immortals’ World, Jian Chen, the Divine Armour of Heavenflight will be of extremely great assistance to you. When it matters, it might even help you survive numerous difficulties.”

Jian Chen’s heart immediately began to burn with enthusiasm when he heard the Wind Venerable’s description of the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. “Senior Feng, the Divine Armour of Heavenflight has already become so damaged. It should be very difficult to repair, right?”

“The Divine Armour of Heavenflight is no regular high quality god artifact, so repairing it is obviously difficult. However, it might be difficult for others, but it’s much easier for you.” The Wind Venerable smiled mysteriously. He gazed into Jian Chen as if he could see through everything in his body. His gaze directly landed on the Source of Life in Jian Chen’s body.

“Source of Life, this shouldn’t be difficult for you to achieve.” The Wind Venerable stared at the Source of Life.

In the next moment, the Source of Life appeared above Jian Chen’s head. It only seemed like a shining green bead right now. All of its pressure was self-contained.

“Don’t even think about it. That’s impossible. I’m too feeble right now. That’s very difficult for me to do- no, I’m incapable of that,” the artifact spirit’s illusionary figure appeared and said firmly and resolutely, filled with a sense of caution.

Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly when he heard the conversation between the Wind Venerable and the artifact spirit. He was surprised.

He had already realised that the Source of Life seemed to be capable of repairing the Divine Armour of Heavenflight?

“God artifacts can repair god artifacts?” Jian Chen was in disbelief.

The Wind Venerable smiled mysteriously. In the next moment, he turned into the force of the world and forcefully entered the Source of Life.

“Ah! Without my permission, you can’t just enter my world like this. Ahhh! Y-y-you’re going too far!” The artifact spirit of the Source of Life screamed. The pressure of the sovereign god artifact suddenly erupted and turbulent energy rushed through the surroundings. It began to put up a desperate resistance.

The Wind Venerable used the fetal membrane of the world to seal up this space, completely blocking the Source of Life’s presence, such that none of it spilt out.

He turned into the force of the world and directly penetrated all of the Source of Life’s efforts at resisting, forcing his way into the interior of the Source of Life. He left the artifact spirit so exasperated from the injustice that it seemed like it was about to burst into tears.

The Source of Life was only in an illusionary state right now. Its power could not compare to its peak state, so it obviously could not stop the Wind Venerable’s infiltration.

The Wind Venerable stood above a small pool within the Source of Life, staring at the fluid in there.

The small pool was only thirty metres wide. It was filled with some milky-white fluid. It was impossible to gauge the depth.

Jian Chen stood beside the Wind Venerable, also gazing at the fluid in the pool curiously.

The artifact spirit of the Source of Life appeared above the fluid, spreading its arms and blocking the Wind Venerable and Jian Chen with a face filled with determination. Clearly, it wanted to stop the two of them.

“Don’t even think about this place. I will never agree to it!” the artifact spirit of the Source of Life said almost frigidly.

The Wind Venerable ignored the artifact spirit of the Source of Life. Instead, he explained to Jian Chen, “The fluid in the pool is called Myriad Source Qi. It is a special energy that only the Source of Life can condense through absorbing the essence of a myriad of substances in the world.”

“This energy encompasses everything, from plants and trees to metal and rocks, as well as the various essences of other substances that have appeared in the world before. As a result, the Myriad Source Qi can serve many purposes, possessing wondrous effects for both refining pills and forging artifacts.”

“However, its most wondrous aspect is not that, but its ability to repair any god artifact beneath sovereign god artifacts.”

Jian Chen’s heart began to thump heavily when he heard that explanation. He asked, “Senior Feng, are you saying to use the Myriad Source Qi to repair the Divine Armour of Heavenflight?”

When it heard that question, the artifact spirit of the Source of Life leapt up immediately like a cat that had its tail trodden on. It reacted extremely violently. “No, definitely not. Jian Chen, you better give up on that thought right now. I will never use the Myriad Source Qi to repair your Divine Armour of Heavenflight.”

After saying that, the artifact spirit secretly glanced at the Wind Venerable on the side and immediately deflated like a balloon. It immediately lost all of its courage and said in an aggrieved manner, “I’m already very feeble. I still have to rely on the Myriad Source Qi. I-if you use it all up, I’ll be severely weakened.”

“Source of Life, repair the Divine Armour of Heavenflight for me and I’ll give you a strand of Primeval Qi in the future. How’s that?” Jian Chen suddenly said.
