Chapter 1085: Treasure of the Protector Clans
“There are countless ancient secret techniques, as well as many that share the sa na. So are extrely simple while others are extraordinarily profound. Xiangtian, let’s check and see what ancient secret technique it is first,” said Changyang Yuan Wuji.
Jian Chen left the ancestral hall with the seven great elders and invited Huang Luan inside. They gathered in the discussion hall on the first floor.
The seven great elders gathered around Huang Luan as they all pointed a finger at her head. They used a secret technique to sense the technique imbedded in Huang Luan’s soul.
A while later, the seven of them opened their eyes simultaneously. They all began to frown slightly.
“This ancient secret technique is quite complicated. It was planted directly onto her soul and has almost fused with it. It’s extrely difficult to remove,” Changyang Yuan Zhenghua gently sighed. He was filled with a sense of helplessness.
“Does that an even you cannot help remove this secret technique?” Jian Chen beca rather flustered inside.
Everyone fell silent for a while before Changyang Zu Xiao said, “I rember an ancient secret technique called the Void Soul Transcendence that can remove this secret technique. Though, the ancient secret technique is just too profound, so I don’t know it.”
A sliver of despair appeared in Jian Chen’s eyes.
“I just happen to know the Void Soul Transcendence. Xiangtian, why don’t you let try it?” Changyang Qing Yun suddenly said. He was very calm right now as he gently smiled. He seed to have completely forgotten about the displeasures from before.
Jian Chen hesitated slightly, before allowing Changyang Qing Yun to try as he had no other choice in the end. However, he ntioned that he wanted to watch over the entire process.
“Jian Chen, breaking ancient secret techniques planted directly on the soul is extrely dangerous. I need to devote all my focus onto it, and I cannot risk any disturbances, or the consequences will be unthinkable. It’s best if you wait outside for the safety of your beloved. Moreover, you’re a great elder of the clan now. We’re all one big family, and I’m your great-grandfather by seniority as well. Don’t you trust your great-grandfather?” Changyang Qing Yun turned down Jian Chen’s request to watch over on one side, before entering a room in the divine hall with Huang Luan.
Jian Chen worried for Huang Luan, so he imdiately extended his presence beyond his body to follow Changyang Qing Yun. However, every inch off the divine hall was filled with the divine hall’s power, so Jian Chen’s presence could not extend past the obstructions. It was suppressed.
Helpless inside, Jian Chen could only sit and wait there. The other great elders also stayed there with him. Only Changyang Qing Jueri left due to so matters.
“Xiangtian, don’t worry. Great elder Qing Yun’s abilities are fantastic. He’s reached Great Perfection for many years already, so he can be described as soone with a foot planted in Saint Emperor already. With him acting personally, even if Huang Luan’s seal can’t be broken, she’ll still co out unscathed,” comforted Changyang Yuan Zhenghua. He had no negative opinion of Jian Chen.
Jian Chen waited for three days, but Huang Luan and Changyang Qing Yun did not erge. He did not even receive a single piece of news, so, in the end, out of boredom, he was taken around the clan again by Changyang Zu Yunxiao.
Changyang Zu Yunxiao lead Jian Chen around on the floating piece of earth, explaining to him a few rules of the clan as well as so interesting events that occurred in the past. The two of them ca across many clansn of the inner clan, who call out and bowed to Changyang Zu Yunxiao. Although Jian Chen was also a great elder, no one showed any respect to him.
Jian Chen did not care at all. He continued beside Changyang Zu Yunxiao and listened to his explanations.
“Mum, is that person beside great elder Yunxiao the outsider, Changyang Xiangtian?” Jian Chen heard a young voice at this mont. Several hundred ters to his left, there was a boy, roughly six or seven years of age, pointing at Jian Chen as he spoke to a middle-aged woman.
“Shhh! Qing Lin, be quiet, or you’ll suffer a similar severe punishnt.” The middle-aged woman quickly covered the boy’s mouth before glancing in Jian Chen’s direction in fear.
The boy was young and fearless, so he rejected what his woman said. He righteously said, “Mum, I’m not scared. Great-grandfather Tianying was injured by Changyang Xiangtian, and then locked up. Changyang Xiangtian is a bad guy. He’s a big bad guy! He’s not good... Mmm... Mmm..” The boy got louder as he spoke, but the woman beca quite terrified. She quickly covered his mouth and left with him in a hurry.
Jian Chen glanced at the boy before sighing inside.
In front, there were a few young Heaven Saint Masters that walked past as well. They seed to be roughly Jian Chen’s age.
“I greet the great elder,” the young man all bowed courteously to Changyang Zu Yunxiao, but their gazes toward Jian Chen were not so kind.
The protector clan was separated from the world, so almost all the younger mbers of the clan had not stepped upon the Tian Yuan Continent. Only a portion of the senior mbers had gone out, so they had no clue about the brutality and laws of survival outside. As a result, they did not accept that strength reigned supre. With their understanding, respect was based on seniority and had nothing to do with personal strength.
They all disagreed very much with the fact that Jian Chen had beco a great elder at such a young age. At Jian Chen’s age, any single person in the inner clan was his senior.
“Great-grandson, don’t get too mad. The protector clan has been separated from the world for too long, which has caused the mbers of the younger generation to deteriorate. Looks like choosing to beco a hermit clan was not a smart choice. We should let these juniors wander the Tian Yuan Continent more often and witness the brutal world.” Changyang Zu Yunxiao sighed.
Jian Chen paid no mind to them. Although he was soone who would always collect his debts, he was not petty.
“What’s that place?” Suddenly, Jian Chen’s eyes froze, and he focused on sothing in the distance. Within a mountain range beyond the floating island, the space constantly twisted as a vast, devastating aura radiated.
“That’s the forbidden grounds of our clan, the place where the Emperor Armant is nourished. There are no clansn that can approach it except for the great elders. Let’s go and have a look.” With that, Changyang Zu Yunxiao lead Jian Chen in that direction.
“The forbidden grounds are surrounded by layer upon layer of formations for protection. They were cast down by previous Saint Emperors, used specifically restraining the Emperor Armant as well as the powerful sword Qi and pressure that radiates from it all year round,” Changyang Zu Yunxiao explained as he moved.
Jian Chen passed through the many formations, and as soon as he arrived inside, a vast pressure swept forward. Coupled with it was surging sword Qi, which made him shudder inside.
At the center of the forbidden grounds was a huge ancient sword stabbed into the ground. The tip of the sword was buried and the hilt pointed to the sky. It possessed a supre presence, as if it could split the sky and rival the heavens. It was filled with a domineering presence.
Jian Chen beca extrely serious as he stood before the Emperor Armant. He said with a deep voice, “What a powerful Emperor Armant. My Emperor Armant is just too, too weak. Before it, I even feel that I have already been defeated. Unbelievable.”
Changyang Zu Yunxiao examined the Emperor Armant with mixed emotions and sighed, “This Emperor Armant existed when our clan was first founded. It was left behind by the founder, our first Saint Emperor. It has already existed for more than a million years.”
“An extrely ancient technique was left behind with the founder’s Emperor Armant. It recorded the thod to nourish the Emperor Armant. Once every Saint Emperor of our clan passes away from cultivation, they will leave behind their Emperor Armants and fuse them with the Emperor Armant through the thod left behind by the founder.
“After countless years, we have never been without Saint Emperors except in recent years. At our peak, we even had more than ten of them existing at the sa ti, so over a hundred Saint Emperors have appeared in our clan’s history. That ans that over a hundred Emperor Armants have been fused with the founder’s Emperor Armant. Its power is unimaginable now and requires multiple Saint Emperors to control it, but even with that, it’s impossible to use all of its power. At the sa ti, they will sustain extrely severe backlash that’s extrely difficult to recover from. If we control it for too long, everyone’s life may even fall into danger, and we might even die as a result.”
Jian Chen was deeply shocked with that. He felt extrely fearful of the Emperor Armants of the protector clans. They could only be controlled by multiple Saint Kings, and even with all those Saint Kings, not all of its power could be used. The controllers would even suffer severe backlashes, so Jian Chen struggled to imagine just how powerful the Emperor Armants really were.
His own Emperor Armant imdiately paled in comparison. They were both Emperor Armants, but the disparity in power was just too vast.
“These Emperor Armants are the treasure of the protector clans. They are the trump cards of the protector clans, as well as our ability to deal with Saint Emperors. It is also what protects us,” Changyang Zu Yunxiao sighed emotionally.
“I wonder if the origin energy armor on Rui Jin and Hei Yu can withstand the Emperor Armants if the protector clans use it despite the consequences.” Jian Chen wondered inside. He had no idea, but he made up his mind at that mont. He would never, ever agitate the Emperor Armants of the protector clans unless he had no other choice.
Jian Chen felt a lot of fear for the Emperor Armants of the protector clans. Before them, even divine halls could be cleaved into two. Only Saint Emperors could withstand the power.
Jian Chen left the forbidden grounds with Changyang Zu Yunxiao, returning to the divine hall once more. Huang Luan remained in the room with Changyang Qing Yun. No one knew whether the secret technique in her could be removed.
Jian Chen entered the library all by himself and made his way through the section where the cultivation thods and Saint Tier Battle Skills were stored. He was heading to where the ancient records were kept.
