Chapter 1440 - The Enhanced Holy Pagoda (2/2)

The pagoda had changed not only in size but also in color. Its original crystal-clear color now had more gravity as it exuded a wisp of ancient charm. The Holy Pagoda no longer seemed to be formed from spiritual energy but was condensed to the extreme. It was like a true crystal tower on which a halo of light flowed, emanating a mystical aura. Moreover, there was an extremely strong fluctuation of spiritual energy on the pagoda, as if it were a true Rare Divine Artifact.

According to Qing Yanjing's estimate, Mu Chen's Holy Pagoda should have attained the quality of a Spiritual Grade Rare Divine Artifact. However, this was not the ultimate form… For Qing Yanjing could feel that the Holy Pagoda was constantly shaking as it inhaled the wisps of ancient aura, which was a sign that it wanted to grow stronger again. However, its further strengthening was slowed down by the fact that the ancient aura that had befallen it was not too strong.

Qing Yanjing smiled and said, ”Since Chen'er has such capabilities, I will do everything I can to help you.” She would naturally ignore the circumstances if it were the ordinary elders, because the Ancestral Aura of the Ancestor Pagoda was so precious that it would not have been obtained if it had not been for a man of great merit.

However, Qing Yanjing was not a stickler who was too strict with the rules. In her view, although the Ancestral Aura was precious, it would be a pity if it remained here without anyone to use it. She might as well make good use of it, so she pointed to a spot, only to see a spark in the nothingness. The original wisps of ancient aura suddenly became a lot more powerful, constantly descending and pouring into the palm-sized crystal pagoda.

Buzz!

As this great amount of Ancestral Aura poured into it, the pagoda suddenly vibrated violently. The tiny pagoda burst out with endless divine light as thick as the earth, as if it could suppress all things. Qing Yanjing could also see ancient inscriptions begin to emerge on the pagoda, cryptic and mysterious.

Boom!

When the ancient inscriptions had covered the pagoda's surface, the crystal pagoda suddenly shook. The sudden flash of light caused even Qing Yanjing to close her eyes momentarily. The light glimmered for a long time and then finally faded away.

The pagoda was suspended quietly over Mu Chen's head as the light grew more subtle. The ancient inscriptions emanated an indescribable aura, permeating the space and causing it to shake.

Mu Chen opened his eyes that had been closed for a month, and as he stretched out his palm, the pagoda over his head fell into his palm. He held the crystal pagoda in his hand, and his gaze was burning. He could feel the astonishing power of the crystal pagoda. By his estimate, this pagoda was not much weaker than the Celestial Emperor Sword he had obtained from the Heavenly Emperor.

The power that remained in the Celestial Emperor Sword was one of his ace cards. But now his Holy Pagoda, even though it was not comparable to the Celestial Emperor Sword in its heyday, might still be able to approach it. Most importantly, over the course of the month, the Holy Pagoda had fed him vast powers. When they were incorporated into his body, he found that his own strength had once again advanced, and he was now in the middle stage of Spiritual Grade.

Beside him, Qing Yanjing exclaimed, ”It is the Holy Pagoda, indeed! Borrowing from the Ancestral Aura, it can be strengthened to this extent.” At this time, the Holy Pagoda had reached the quality of a God Grade Rare Divine Artifact.

It was very difficult to possess a God Grade Rare Divine Artifact, even if one was a God Grade Heavenly Sovereign. Some Divine Heavenly Sovereigns still had God Grade Rare Divine Artifacts, demonstrating their precious value. This class of Rare Divine Artifacts, even held by a Complete Earthly Sovereign, was capable of dealing with a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

”It's all thanks to you, mother.” Mu Chen laughed heartily. He knew that if his mother had not controlled the Ancestor Pagoda and provided him with a great deal of precious Ancestral Aura, it would have taken him a long time to enhance the Holy Pagoda to this extent.

Qing Yanjing smiled and said, ”It is useless for the Ancestral Aura to remain here. Since you have this ability, there is no harm in giving it to you, but after all, this is owned by the Budur Ancient Clan. Since you have used this opportunity, if the Budur Ancient Clan meets with trouble in the future, you should help.”

Qing Yanjing knew that Mu Chen disliked the Budur Ancient Clan and held a grudge against them, but it was not what she wanted to see, so she wanted to alleviate some of Mu Chen's grievances.

Hearing this, Mu Chen nodded and said, ”As long as you are safe, there is no grudge that cannot be resolved between me and the Budur Ancient Clan,” he said. ”My techniques come from your bloodline, and mother, you are from the Budur Ancient Clan. I will certainly help them if they encounter trouble in the future.”

Qing Yanjing nodded with a pleased expression on her face. She patted Mu Chen's head lovingly and smiled. ”Since you have finished your cultivation, let's get ready to leave.”

Hearing this, elation emerged on Mu Chen's face. ”Yes!”

Looking at the joy that flitted across Mu Chen's usually calm face, Qing Yanjing was also influenced by his infectious happiness. She smiled as immense longing surfaced in her gaze.
