Chapter 1391: Emperor Shrine

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Zhang Ruochen put away the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron and Golden Dragon Carriage, and swallowed a spring pill to recover while walking into the Emperor Shrine.

The more he walked, the more solid the time and s.p.a.ce structure became.

There were more and more inscriptions left by the supreme saints of the Zhang family. Some of them were carved underground while others were carved in the air.

He might get killed if he took one wrong step.

Zhang Ruochen had been to the Emperor Shrine to wors.h.i.+p his ancestors, so he knew how to get in.

Every mile he walked, he would stop by a nameless stele and bow. “Zhang Ruochen, the descendant of the seven hundred and seventy-fourth generation.”

Every time he finished that sentence, he could feel a mysterious trace of power sweeping through his entire body.

Zhang Ruochen had been a bit scared when he first entered the shrine as he thought there were ghosts pa.s.sing through his body.

Now, the fear was gone.

Emperor Ming told Zhang Ruochen that the mind power was the saint intent left by all the ancestors.

When someone became a supreme saint, he or she could create lots of abstruse mysteries. Even after supreme saints died, their saint intent would still remain. If they put their saint intent somewhere special, they would remain forever.

The Emperor Shrine was built to store the saint intent of all the ancestors.

Gradually, a towering saint mountain emerged in front of him.

Each emperor that was made of jade represented a supreme saint of the Zhang family, and there were dozens of them in front of Zhang Ruochen now.

If someone became a supreme saint, his or her family would become a giant, or even an empire. The resources and skills left by a supreme saint could help the family last for tens of thousands of years.

Zhang family was created by a G.o.d, and there were dozens of supreme saints throughout their history. Ancient families and ancient races were no match for it.

Guarding Dragon Pavilion was one of the resources of the Zhang family.

Ordinary ancient families and ancient races wouldn’t be able to cultivate a power like Guarding Dragon Pavilion or some other mysterious organizations to guard the families eternally.

Only the ancestors who became supreme saints were qualified to leave their saint jade statues and spirit tablets in the saint mountain.

Zhang Ruochen walked past all the emperors and deep into the saint mountain.

There was thick saint mist in front of him, and traces of saint light surged to the sky.

The spirit tablets of each ancestor were put on an altar.

“According to father, the royal grave is Yin, and the Emperor Shrine is Yang. One stands for death and the other stands for life. They’re located on two special spots in Sacred City, and they reinforce each other, bearing the fate Qi of Zhang family. As long as the ancestors’ saint intent is still around, Zhang family will live forever. However, Zhang family declined and fell eight hundred years ago. What happened?”

Zhang Ruochen put his hands together and bowed at the spirit tablets above.

Just as he bowed, he saw a coffin floating in the area covered by saint light.

“How come? All the coffins of Zhang family have been buried in the grave or Emperor Shrine. Why is there a coffin? Whose is it?”

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and used his heavenly eyes to look at it again.

This time, he could see the coffin more clearly this time, and he saw a name, ‘Chen,’ at the top of the coffin.

Seeing that word, Zhang Ruochen came up with an a.s.sumption that was irritating.

Could it be…

Zhang Ruochen immediately abandoned that thought. He didn’t want to overthink, nor did he go open the coffin. Instead, he prepared to trigger the supreme saint inscriptions to fight the palace-guarding ancient formation in Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.

Finis.h.i.+ng this battle was the priority.

“Unmovable Emperor Ming Saintly Look.”

Zhang Ruochen immediately mobilized his techniques and brought out a saint look from his lower abdomen, and that saint shadow looked exactly like Zhang Ruochen.

The white saint shadow rushed into the altar, and all of a sudden, every spirit table started to gleam with saint light.

And then, supreme saint inscriptions emerged, centering on the altar, and they spread everywhere like humans’ veins.

Supreme saint inscriptions were activated, and they spread toward Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.

The Sacred armies and the armies from the imperial government all looked to the Emperor Shrine. They could see the contour of that saint mountain where supreme saint sculptures stood, and they were giving off divine forces.

“All the emperors from the Sacred Central Empire have woken up. The empire will s.h.i.+ne again! Chi’s rule will be ended!”

“The palace-guarding formation has been suppressed by supreme saint inscriptions. Attack!”

“Destroy Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.”

“Long live his highness the crown prince!”
