Chapter 2121: A Grand Prime’s Legacy (1/2)

Now, Xiao Man completely listened to Jian Chen. She basically did whatever he told her to do, without any objections at all.

Afterwards, Jian Chen got Xiao Man to return to the Anatta Tower. He took Xiao Man’s pendant and a jade bottle with Xiao Man’s blood inside with him to the twelfth floor of the Neptunean Divine Palace.

The entrance to the twelfth floor was no longer some secret. Jian Chen had learnt about it long ago.

As a result, since he hurried along wholeheartedly and was not distracted by anything, he arrived on the twelfth floor very quickly.

As soon as he set foot on the twelfth floor, Jian Chen saw the four statues that stood in the distance, seemingly connecting the ground with the sky. He immediately felt shocked.

Apart from one of them that had dulled, all of them were surrounded by a hazy layer of light. Vaguely, the tremendous pressure of Grand Primes seemed to radiate out, enough to crush stars and surpass the heavens. It seemed to bear the presence of a supreme overlord of the world.

Jian Chen knew that these four statues were left here by the four ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Neptunean.

However, Jian Chen did not approach the statues. Instead, he stood very far away. He did not come here for the Grand Primes’ legacies but for awakening the artifact spirit.

There were many Godkings gathered in the surroundings of the three statues. Jian Chen did not want to raise their attention. As such, he would not expose himself, so not only did he completely conceal his presence when he arrived, he did not even use the senses of his soul.

Suddenly, Jian Chen’s eyes narrowed. He discovered a few familiar figures in the crowd far away. Immediately, he backed up far away without showing any intentions of doing so and also looked away. He did not dare to pay too much attention that way.

“It’s the fifth prince of the Sky Empire and mister Shu. I never thought they’d be here as well. Although I’ve changed my appearance and stature, it’s still nowhere near perfect. I can’t be certain that some of them won’t recognise me through some small hints and traces. It looks like I need to remain far away from there,” Jian Chen thought quickly. Like a ghost, he borrowed the forest and geography around to cover himself as he silently moved off into the distance.

A while later, Jian Chen arrived several hundred thousand kilometres away. In an extremely remote location, he took out Xiao Man’s pendant and the bottle of her blood. He dripped some of the blood onto the pendant without any hesitation.

As soon as the blood came in contact with the jade pendant, it was absorbed silently. All of it vanished into the jade pendant, and afterwards, a mysterious presence that even Jian Chen could not sense drifted out. It permeated the surroundings.

After doing all that, Jian Chen waited patiently. However, he waited for a very long time, yet the artifact spirit still did not awaken.

At the same time, a great net condensed entirely out of energy expanded over an unknown space within the Neptunean Divine Palace, enveloping the entire place. It seemed like a prison, trapping whatever was in there.

The energy net seemed to be alive. It changed at all times, gradually shrinking towards the centre. It became smaller and smaller.

“I’m the master here. I’m the existence who determines everything here. I have infinite power in this divine palace. You can’t trap me, nor can you assimilate with me and replace me…” At this moment, a furious mental pulse roared out, booming through the interior of the net.
