Chapter 1440: The Enhanced Holy Pagoda

Inside the ancient Ancestor Pagoda.
Mu Chen sat in the air in the pagoda. It seemed as if the space within the pagoda was endless. He looked up, his gaze flickering as if he could see the nothingness beyond the twinkling of the ancient light. The whole space was filled with that kind of boundless aura.
”This Ancestor Pagoda is the Budur Ancient Clan's strongest heritage that has been passed on for hundreds of thousands of years. Before every Great Elder passed on, each of them would enter the area and scatter their spiritual energy, integrating it into the Ancestor Pagoda. Over time, it gave the Ancestor Pagoda infinite strength.”
Beside Mu Chen, Qing Yanjing's expression was solemn and dignified. ”If the Ancestor Pagoda were to unleash its full power, even a Divine Heavenly Sovereign would be killed. When the Extraterritorial Race invaded the Great Thousand World, they also attacked us. With the help of the Ancestor Pagoda, three Heavenly Demon Emperors were suppressed and killed.”
Mu Chen was shocked upon hearing that. Heavenly Demon Emperors were the equivalent of Divine Heavenly Sovereigns, and he did not expect that they had been killed by the Ancestor Pagoda. This showed how frightening its power was.
”To put it simply, this Ancestor Pagoda should be considered a Rare Divine Artifact. In fact, it is one of the top Divine Grade Rare Divine Artifacts.”
Mu Chen nodded, as he had seen the Eight Ancestral Glazed Bowl that the Martial Ancestor had cultivated. It was also a Divine Grade Rare Divine Artifact that could withstand Budur Xuan's furious blow. It only flew due to the impact but had not incurred any damage at all. Thus, this exemplified how powerful a Divine Grade Rare Divine Artifact was.
Apparently, the Ancestor Pagoda of the Budur Ancient Clan was even stronger than the Eight Ancestral Glazed Bowl. According to Mu Chen's estimation, perhaps this Ancestor Pagoda should be regarded as one of the strongest Divine Grade Rare Divine Artifacts in the Great Thousand World.
”I will summon the Ancestral Aura later, and you will try your best to accept it. Now, your Holy Pagoda can be regarded as the top of ordinary Rare Divine Artifacts, but in fact, it is not even a Spiritual Grade Rare Divine Artifact. I hope to use this enhancement to improve its quality.” Qing Yanjing smiled.
Hearing this, Mu Chen was moved. He was well aware of the Holy Pagoda's power. Not only did it have the power of sealing, but it had the ability to transform spiritual energy into a more pure and powerful crystal spiritual energy. This was the most fundamental spiritual technique he used to challenge a God Grade with his strength as a Spiritual Grade. Otherwise, he would have been crushed by a God Grade alone. The benefits were bountiful now that his Holy Pagoda could be strengthened again.
”Alright.” He nodded solemnly and expectantly.
Qing Yanjing conjured up seals, and the space suddenly shook. An ancient rumble seemed to pierce through multiple spaces as it descended toward them. Mu Chen looked up and saw a wisp of ancient aura penetrating through the nothingness as it descended.
When the ancient aura had just appeared, Mu Chen felt the Holy Pagoda vibrate madly in his body, like a starving man seeing delicacies. Without even waiting for Mu Chen to summon it, holy light surged on his forehead. The crystal-clear Holy Pagoda emerged and then quickly expanded, transforming into a massive pagoda tens of thousands of feet in size. The pagoda swayed as it emitted hundreds of millions of beams of holy light, sucking down the ancient wisps of aura and swallowing them into the pagoda.
As the wisps of ancient aura entered, the holy light flickered. Suddenly, it surged and became more profound and pure. At the same time, the original massive Holy Pagoda was as if it had been rid of impurities, and it began to shrink. As it shrank, the holy light that emanated from the pagoda became purer, and an ancient halo of light flowed out of the pagoda.
Mu Chen was aware of the changes in the Holy Pagoda as he gradually closed his eyes. He ventured directly into the deep state of practice, because he felt that when the Holy Pagoda was huffing and puffing with ancient aura, a magnificent spiritual energy flowed back into his body.
Beside him, Qing Yanjing looked at the scene with a smile and then slowly disappeared into the nothingness.
...
Mu Chen's cultivation lasted for a full month.
When Qing Yanjing appeared again in the space a month later, she looked at the scene before her as surprise and joy flitted across her face. At this time, Mu Chen was still sitting in the nothingness, but the original Holy Pagoda that had been tens of thousands of feet tall was now only palm-sized. It hovered above Mu Chen's head, continuously absorbing the wisps of ancient aura.
