Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“The Budur Ancient Clan?” When Mu Chen heard the name, his heart began thumping hard.
He had a hunch that the Great Pagoda Art that he practiced was somehow connected to this clan. In fact, if he had guessed correctly, the culprit who held his mother captive belonged to this Budur Ancient Clan!
At this point, he finally understood why his mother, who was a Spiritual Array Ancestral Master with a strength equivalent to a Heavenly Sovereign, would have left when he was a baby in order to protect him and his father.
He might not know the Budur Ancient clan very well, but he knew how daunting it was, since it was known for being one of the most ancient clans in the Great Thousand World! Even an ordinary Heavenly Sovereign would need to be cautious when facing such a dominating force!
“No wonder my mom wanted me to avoid displaying the Great Pagoda Art. She was afraid that the Budur Ancient Clan would discover it, thus putting me in danger!” Mu Chen pursed his lips tightly.
Mu Chen had not practiced much of the Great Pagoda Art for this very reason. After all, Mu Chen could not help his mother escape, but he also did not want to cause her any more troubles due to any reckless acts on his part.
The Heavenly Emperor watched Mu Chen, his expression becoming complicated. He assumed that Mu Chen was feeling nervous, since he needed to go to the Maha Ancient Clan for his Primordial Immortal Body.
He immediately smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry too much. Even though the Maha Ancient Clan is the protector of the Primordial Immortal Body, they do not have the rights to hold onto it, as the Primitive Celestial Body will choose its own master. Hence, if you have the confidence, you can go there and give it a shot.”
The Heavenly Emperor then added a warning. “But, of course, you need to be capable of accomplishing your mission! Otherwise, it would be wise to avoid the Maha Ancient Clan altogether.”
Mu Chen nodded his head quietly. He was not a fool. Given the extraordinary value of the Primordial Immortal Body, even the Maha Ancient Clan would treat it as an absolute treasure.
Although they were its protectors, they each had been coveting it for the longest time. Hence, it would be no small surprise if one of their own members were to snatch it. But, it would take much more effort for anyone outside of the clan to be able to sneak in and obtain it.
“Why didn’t you try to practice the Primordial Immortal Body in the past?” asked Mu Chen curiously. He had thought of this suddenly. Since the Heavenly Emperor had already cultivated his Immortal Golden Body, he should also be qualified to practice the Primordial Immortal Body.
Despite the fact that the Maha Ancient Clan was formidable, the Heavenly Emperor and his Ancient Celestial Palace were no ordinary forces to be reckoned with either. Hence, it was quite evident that the Heavenly Emperor could give it a shot as well.
The Heavenly Emperor shook his head with a smile, then spoke with regret, “I thought of this before, but unfortunately, someone owned the Primordial Immortal Body during my time. So, I could only yearn for it from afar back then.”
“Oh?” Mu Chen was slightly stunned by his words. After all, if even a hero like the Heavenly Emperor could not get the Primordial Immortal Body, he wondered what his own chances were!
“Hehe, he’s quite a remarkable man. He was one of the greatest existences in the Great Thousand World at that time. I couldn’t help but admit that I was slightly weaker than him. Otherwise, I would have tried to practice the Primordial Immortal Body. After all, if I managed to do so, not even the Nine Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor could kill me!” The Heavenly Emperor gave another wide smile, revealing a look of admiration for the first time.
The person who could draw an emotion of admiration from someone like the Heavenly Emperor must indeed be a remarkable person. As such, even Mu Chen could not help but reveal his curiosity.
He asked, “Who is this person?”
“In those days, he was known as the Immortal Emperor in the Great Thousand World. He was one of the leaders who fought against the Extraterritorial Race. In fact, he even defeated a few of the top ten Heaven Demon Emperors of the Extraterritorial Race on his own,” said the Heavenly Emperor.
“Immortal Emperor…” Mu Chen mumbled the ancient name continuously.
Apparently, this title had come from the Primordial Immortal Body. As such, the body should be his primary cultivation as well. As he thought of it, Mu Chen was looking more and more forward to having the Primordial Immortal Body!
“That is still far down the road for you. The most important thing for you to do now is to cultivate your current Immortal Golden Body to its maximum peak.” The Heavenly Emperor reminded him.
Mu Chen nodded with respect. He was not someone who craved anything that was beyond his reach. Even though he did look forward to owning the Primordial Immortal Body, at the same time, he knew that he needed to take things one step at a time. Besides, given his current strength, he could not cultivate the body, even if he had it right in front of him!
