Chapter 3413: Secret of the Sacred Mountain (1)

This time, Jian Chen spoke three days and nights with the successors of the Martial Soul lineage. During this period, he told them many important pieces of information that only he knew up until that point and the Martial Soul lineage was unaware of.

When they heard these secretive pieces of news, it did not lead to deeper thought but more shock and surprise than anything else.

I really didnt think that the Tower of Radiance from the Radiant Saint Hall actually belongs to eighth junior brother. Thats truly unbelievable

Its just a pity that the Tower of Radiance has been locked up in the Radiant Saint Hall by the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths formation. Unless the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths removes the formation, it cant be taken away. Otherwise, you could bring it over and fiddle around with it

The change of possession of the Tower of Radiance left them quite excited. Even though the Tower of Radiance was technically under Jian Chens control, from the way they behaved, it was as if the Tower of Radiance had become theirs.

At the same time, the seven of them were won over by Jian Chens capabilities. He actually managed to switch the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance without raising any attention.

Just how many people in the Saints World possessed such impossible abilities to do something like that?

Senior brothers and sisters, how much about the Martial Soul lineages history do you know? Jian Chen suddenly asked. He began searching for any stories of the past regarding the Martial Soul lineage.

When they heard that, they all sank into their thoughts. Only after a moment of recollection did Hun Zang say, We do know a little about the Martial Soul lineages history, but we dont know much. After all, many ancient records have already been lost, and our succession has been interrupted multiple times too. Though, why are you suddenly asking this, eighth junior brother?

Jian Chen suddenly became stern. He glanced at the interior s.p.a.ce of the Martial Soul lineage and only said slowly after a moment of thought, Our Martial Soul lineage has produced a Grand Exalt before. First senior brother, do you know much about the matters of that aeon?

Hun Zang furrowed his brows when he heard that. It was not just him. Even Chu Jian, Yue Chao, Yun Ziting, and Su Qi furrowed their brows.

What we know is extremely limited, given how distant it is. The ancient records only mention it in a couple of sentences. Eighth brother, youve suddenly mentioned such a distant matter for no good reason. Do you know something about it? Chu Jian asked suspiciously.

Eighth junior brother, did you learn something through the Tower of Radiance? Something to do with the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage? Yue Chao stared at Jian Chen brightly with some excitement and eagerness, but there was more intrigue and curiosity.

Jian Chen had abruptly begun asking about the sovereign of the Martial Soul lineage without reason. That was far too long ago. They were certain that Jian Chen had not asked these questions without any purpose in mind.

Jian Chen nodded and said sternly, Senior brothers and sisters, I did indeed learn a little back then through the Tower of Radiance. This matter is just too shocking. I didnt plan on telling you this so soon, but Im afraid that I wont have the opportunity any more if I dont tell you now.

As a result, while Im still here, I plan on telling you everything that I know.

Afterwards, Jian Chen told them everything he had seen from the scene that the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance had described to him, without hiding anything.

He was about to leave the Saints World for the Immortals World. The path that lay ahead of him in the Immortals World was hazy. Even he had no idea just how many dangers lay in waiting.

He was afraid that he could never return once he left, so he did not hope that these secrets he knew would vanish into the dust.

Sure enough, without any surprise, Hun Zang and the others all s.h.i.+vered in fright when they heard about how the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage had perished. They stiffened as their faces immediately became pale-white.

Even the three Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes, Hun Zang, Chu Jian, and Yue Chao, felt a chill run down their spine. They perspired out of fright.

The details that Jian Chen told them about were just too chilling and just too shocking.

A great hand condensed from the three thousand laws had descended from above and instantly erased the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage.

A figure as powerful as the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineage was actually unable to put up any resistance before the hand at all. He could not even withstand a single strike.

That was a sovereign of a world after all, a terrifying sovereign who reigned invincible, yet he died without being able to put up a fight at all.

If news of this broke out, just who among the six worlds of this day and age would believe it?

After all, Grand Exalt was already the highest point reachable in terms of battle prowess. They were basically omnipotent as existence akin to the heavenly ways.

Yet in the end, he had died from a single attack. Just who would believe that a sovereign of a world was actually so feeble?

Among the eight successors of the Martial Soul lineage, one of them was a sovereign of the world, while the seven others were Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes. Such a powerful arrangement had actually been destroyed in the blink of an eye.

The Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineages partner was also a Grand Exalt who had comprehended a way to completion. In the end, among the Two Grand Exalts, one of them perished right off the bat. T-t-this cant be real.

What kind of existence was that hand condensed from the three thousand ways? Dont tell me there really is a terrifying existence who has comprehended all three thousand laws completely?

Everyone from the Martial Soul lineage was frightened out of their wits. It took them a good moment before they could recover.

Jian Chen sucked in a deep breath and said, Apart from that, theres the Martial Soul Mountain that we currently reside in. Senior brothers and sisters, I feel like weve all underestimated the Martial Soul Mountain a little. No, I should say that none of us have truly understood the Martial Soul Mountain.

Everyone looked at Jian Chen numbly, having yet to recover from the terrifying sight of the Grand Exalt of the Martial Soul lineages death.

From the sight that I saw, the Martial Soul Mountain remained undamaged after taking on the giant hand condensed from the three thousand laws attack. However, the Martial Soul Mountain back then was a little different from now.

The Martial Soul Mountain now has an additional, thick layer of substance on the surface, which forms the current rock layer. As a result, the Martial Soul Mountain we see from outside is not the true Martial Soul Mountain. Where we reside right now is the true Martial Soul Mountain, Jian Chen said as he constantly looked around. His gaze deepened.

Hun Zang and the others all fell silent. Only after quite a while did they emerge from their shock and say with mixed emotions, Only Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes can freely enter our Martial Soul Mountain, while Grand Exalts can come and go as they please. However, without any exception, those Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes or Grand Exalts can only move about on the surface. They cant enter the interior of the Martial Soul Mountain.

With eighth junior brothers explanation, I finally understand that the exterior of the Martial Soul Mountain is just rock that slowly acc.u.mulated over time.

Apart from us successors of the Martial Soul lineage, no outsider can enter the true Martial Soul Mountain!

Jian Chen said in thought, Perhaps thats not rock acc.u.mulated over time, but energy thats leaked out of the sacred mountain, which slowly turned into a substance. However, none of it is important, whether its rock or from the energy of the sacred mountain. What is important is that something else is hidden inside the sacred mountain.

Something else is hidden inside? They were all stunned by that. They became uncertain and surprised.

Thats right. The Martial Soul Mountain is hiding other things, but that place can only be accessed when nine successors are a.s.sembled. Otherwise, if our Martial Soul lineage produces a Grand Exalt and seven Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, we can also force our way in, Jian Chen said in thought.

We only know that when nine successors of the Martial Soul lineage a.s.semble, that will be an age of utmost glory. It can give our Martial Soul lineage enough confidence to not even need to fear Grand Exalts. As for whether its hiding anything, the records never made note of that, Su Qi said in a slight daze. This time, the impact from their little junior brothers return had truly been quite substantial.
