"Even so, with this Emperor’s Coffin in hand, combined with your Hongng Body, if you’re in close combat, I fear even a Saint would have to retreat," Si Ruyan said.
It was not an exaggeration on her part, for Ji Chen’s Hongng Body was indeed extraordinary; otherwise, how could he possibly shake a Holy Weapon with his bare hands.
Moreover, with the Emperor’s Coffin, if he truly got close, even a Saint would find it troubleso.
However, that being said, with Ji Chen’s current cultivation, trying to get close to a Saint is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
At that level of existence, they would not allow any threat to their own lives to occur.
"Are you carrying the Emperor’s Coffin with you?" Si Ruyan suddenly asked.
Ji Chen was startled, then nodded, "Senior Ao found a special Spatial Treasure that can accommodate the Emperor’s Item."
Ordinary Spatial Treasures cannot withstand the presence of an Emperor’s Item, but that does not an it cannot be stored.
This special Spatial Treasure is extrely rare and is specifically used for storing Emperor’s Items and Holy Weapons.
With the connections Nangong Ao had in the past, he obtained one for Ji Chen, and now Ji Chen carries it with him.
"At the gathering between the two tribes, the Ancient Race will likely demand you return those Ancestral King’s Weapons," Si Ruyan said.
Ji Chen could think of this without her saying it.
After all, the Ancestral King’s Weapons are equivalent to the Human Race’s Sacred Artifacts, and in recent tis, the Ancient Race has been sending ssages to the Lingyun Sect almost daily, demanding their return. It’s only because of the gathering between the two tribes that they haven’t launched a massive army against the Lingyun Sect.
Otherwise, I fear that Ancestral King Level powerhouses would have already descended upon the Lingyun Sect.
...
In the southern part of the Eastern Desolation, within the Divine City.
Seven days later, Ji Chen and Si Ruyan arrived here.
This city is extrely prosperous and magnificent, being the most ancient great city existing within the Eastern Desolation for the longest ti.
It is said that the Divine City was established during the Desolate Ancient Era, and throughout history, many Ancient Saints have visited here.
Figures like the Night Emperor, the Bright Emperor, and others who shook the world in their ti have also left their footprints within the city.
Because of this, to this day, wisps of Emperor’s Essence still linger in the skies above the Divine City, like a great path shrouding it, greatly improving the environnt within the entire city.
With the approaching gathering of the two tribes, nurous cultivators have now gathered in the Divine City.
The Human Race and the Ancient Race each occupy half, both of whom are strong individuals who have co from all over the world.
Young kings rarely seen on ordinary days and Void Realm experts as elusive as dragons can now be found in abundance within this city.
"Eastern Desolation truly deserves to be the strongest land among the Celestial Martial Four Domains; the overall power of its sects and clans far surpasses that of the Beiyou, West Desert, and Southern Region’s three domains."
"After all, this is the heartland of the Dragon Race, where the Holy Dragon Qi is strong. Cultivating in such an environnt, the improvent in strength is naturally much faster."
In a tavern, on the second floor, Ji Chen and Si Ruyan arrived and chose a seat by the window.
Their ears were filled with the discussions of many cultivators, mostly from the three regions of Beiyou, West Desert, and the Southern Region. It was their first ti in the Eastern Desolation, and they couldn’t help being amazed.
"This grand gathering has attracted countless heroes; I wonder what kind of agreents can be reached in the end."
"The Dao Body of Beiyou arrived three days ago, and it’s said that upon his arrival, many young kings from Eastern Desolation wanted to challenge him. They were all elite disciples from the Human Race’s Sacred Land or young kings of the Ancient Race."
The na of Gu Hao, the Dao Body, is known to everyone under heaven. This constitution, many years ago, once shook the human world and is one of the nine great constitutions of the Desolate Ancient Era.
Equally renowned are the Sun Immortal Body of the Kunlun Saintess, the Taiyin Immortal Body of Qu Luoning, and Ji Chen’s Hongng Body, all rare and powerful special constitutions in the history of the Human Race.
Throughout history, the nine great constitutions of the Desolate Ancient Era had never appeared in the sa era, but in this era, the Dao Body, Taiyin, Sun’s two Immortal Bodies, and the Hongng Body have all appeared together, an unprecedented occurrence.
Any of the Desolate Ancient’s nine great constitutions possesses the potential to beco an emperor. These individuals, regardless of the era, could beco the peak of that ti.
Now that so many constitutions have appeared in the sa era, but only one can beco emperor, one can only imagine how fierce the competition will be on the road to emperorship in the future.
"Speaking of which... it’s truly incredible that the four Desolate Ancient constitutions that have erged this ti all co from Beiyou."
"Beiyou has always been a place where talent is abundant and has been so throughout history. Although its overall strength has never matched the Eastern Desolation, figures like the Night Emperor and the Bright Emperor were all born there."
"Besides the Human Race, the Ancient Race is also producing geniuses. The Dragon Race from the Eastern Desolation, the Phoenix Race from the Southern Region, and the Demon and Ape Races from the West Desert. In recent years, these Ancient Races have cultivated many young kings, all possessing strength comparable to the Saint Heirs of the Human Race."
"It’s said that the Divine Lady of the Phoenix Race has also co to this gathering. I wonder if we’ll be fortunate enough to see her this ti?"
The Phoenix Race Divine Lady, Huang Shuying, is said to have been born during the Desolate Ancient Era and was sealed in a Divine Source at the age of twenty. It wasn’t until the last couple of years that she awoke from within the Divine Source.
She is a favored daughter of the heavens from the Desolate Ancient Era, with the blood of the Divine Phoenix flowing in her veins, holding an extrely prestigious position within the Ancient Race. Even so Ancestral Kings don’t dare show any negligence in her presence.
It’s said that besides Divine Maiden Huang Shuying, in the Dragon Race and other powerful Ancient Races, there are also several princes born during the Desolate Ancient Era, who were sealed in Divine Sources for many years and have only recently awakened.
On the surface, figures like the Dragon Heir and the Demon Heir are next in line to be the rulers of their respective tribes. Yet, behind them stands a person of higher standing, akin to Huang Shuying, a son of the Ancestral Emperor born during the Desolate Ancient Era, wielding imnse power. Even the current Ancient Kings dare not defy them.
...
Soon, night fell.
Ji Chen and Si Ruyan left the tavern and headed northward in the city.
They learned of a gathering of young people happening tonight at an elegant pavilion sowhere in the northern part of the city.
Renowned figures like the Human Race’s Dao Body, and the Ape Prince of the Ancient Race were expected to make an appearance.
Even the legendary Phoenix Race Divine Lady might attend.
The Gathering Talent Pavilion.
It’s said that the Night Emperor and the Bright Emperor, these two Ancient Emperors from the Human Race, once visited this place, along with many other historically revered Saints.
The na of Gathering Talent Pavilion was given after their visits.
Ji Chen and Si Ruyan arrived here.
Looking around, they could see countless young figures gathered in the current Gathering Talent Pavilion, with Human and Ancient Race individuals each taking half, all exuding impressive auras and formidable strength.
