The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1968: Chapter 1968: Blessing of the Primordial Chaos Tree

Thinking of the Void Divine Hall, Jing Yan couldn’t help but frown.

Nowadays, the Void Divine Hall really wants to kill him, and the relationship between the Void Divine Hall and the Hongjun Heavenly Palace is becoming increasingly tense. This made Jing Yan start to consider whether to return to the Endless Chaos. Because if he returns to the Endless Chaos, it might likely trigger a large-scale war between the two ultimate forces.

The Void Divine Hall wants him dead, while the Hongjun Heavenly Palace definitely wants to protect him. At this rate, the outbreak of war is not impossible.

Moreover, Ancestor Hong Jun is currently nowhere to be found. If war breaks out, the Hongjun Heavenly Palace would obviously be at a disadvantage. So even if Jing Yan were to return to the Endless Chaos, he must at least have the strength to protect himself and withstand a frontal attack from a Title Controller.

”Brother Gute, my current strength is still very low, I’m not even a Controller. Although I have already mastered the Seventh Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance, this strength is far inferior even to a relatively strong Controller. Moreover, I’ve offended the Void Divine Hall, and the entire Void Divine Hall probably wants me dead.” Jing Yan sighed helplessly.

”The Void Divine Hall?” Brother Gute’s aura condensed.

”That damn bastard!” As he said this, Brother Gute’s eyes turned sharp.

”Brother Gute, who are you talking about?” Jing Yan instinctively asked.

”Young master, you must be careful of the Void Divine Palace Master He Ming. During my master’s investigations, he discovered something off about He Ming. My master once said he might be a traitor.” Brother Gute said gritting his teeth, ”It’s just a pity, my master couldn’t confirm this. If it was certain, my master would have killed He Ming with his own hands.”

Jing Yan’s eyes widened.

Previously, when he used the Fate Dao, he vaguely sensed that something was off with the Void Divine Hall, but he couldn’t be certain.

Now, hearing Brother Gute say this, Jing Yan was a bit more convinced.

”Young master, this relic left by my master now belongs to you.” Brother Gute said, ”All the resources here, the young master can use freely. You can control the entire relic. Hehe, to control this relic, you actually need to have at least mastered the Seventh Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance.”

Jing Yan spread his Divine Thought, probing the relic. Indeed, one seal after another loosened naturally under Jing Yan’s Divine Thought. Those places that originally contained treasures were also all open to Jing Yan. Jing Yan could take any treasure at will.

The resources left by the Ancient Tree Elder were indeed many. However, Jing Yan had previously emptied a resource warehouse where a Heaven Devouring Clan Mother was hiding, acquiring massive resources. He has only used some during the cultivation of the Sixth and Seventh Layers of the Ancient Tree Inheritance. Cultivation Resources are not what Jing Yan currently needs most, except for things like Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves.

Jing Yan quickly became excited, as he had already discovered a room containing the most precious resources. In this room, there were as many as seven Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves stored. Besides the Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves, there were other extremely precious resources as well. These resources being placed together with the Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves indicate that their value, even if not as high, wouldn’t differ much.

With a thought, Jing Yan entered the room, and Brother Gute followed.

Seeing Jing Yan’s gaze on the Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves, Brother Gute said, ”Young master, there were originally more leaves. But over the long years, whenever I found a promising genius to inherit the guardian status, I’d send out one or two leaves, so now there are only seven left.”

Jing Yan naturally understood.

The last time he came here, he was chosen by Brother Gute and received two Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves, right?

”However, young master need not be disappointed. In the Ancient Tree Space, there are things better than leaves. For example, the direct blessing of the Primordial Ancient Tree itself.” Brother Gute continued.

”Brother Gute, what do you mean?” Jing Yan looked at Brother Gute.

”Young master is already a guardian and can enter the Ancient Tree Space at any time. There, young master should receive a blessing from the Primordial Ancient Tree, which might directly elevate the ancient tree inheritance to the Eighth Layer or even the Ninth Layer.” Brother Gute said slowly.

A direct elevation to the Eighth Layer of Ancient Tree Inheritance? Possibly even mastering the Ninth Layer?

Jing Yan was almost doubtful if he heard correctly.

Training the Seventh Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance, Jing Yan felt was largely due to luck that he succeeded.

But according to Brother Gute, if he enters the Ancient Tree Space, it is very possible to receive the blessing of the Primordial Ancient Tree and thereby grasp the Eighth Layer or even the Ninth Layer of Ancient Tree Inheritance.

”Brother Gute, I am not a life form from the Primordial Chaos Tree Space, can I still receive the blessing?” Jing Yan asked.

”Young master, in fact, all life in Chaos originates from the Primordial Chaos Tree. Of course, this does not include the foreign Devouring Sky Clan.” Brother Gute chuckled.

”Brother, is the Ancient Tree Space far from here? With my current strength, there are certain limitations in establishing a wormhole over a long distance...” Jing Yan took a deep breath, calming himself, and then said.

What he meant was that he might need to create multiple wormholes successively to reach the Ancient Tree Space.

”Young master, within the relic, you can directly transport to the Ancient Tree Space. My master, back then, left a passage. Young master only needs to perform the Seventh Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance to know how to control it.” Brother Gute said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jing Yan quickly performed the Seventh Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance.

Immediately, he understood what Brother Gute meant.

From here, indeed, one could directly reach the Ancient Tree Space. Moreover, it was bringing the entire relic into the Ancient Tree Space.

”Brother Gute, there’s something else I want to know. Why did Emperor Chenyuan show me so much care after knowing I practiced the Ancient Tree Inheritance?” Jing Yan turned his gaze to ask.

Back in front of Emperor Chenyuan, Jing Yan had asked directly, but Emperor Chenyuan did not tell Jing Yan why he did so.

”Emperor Chenyuan? Young master is referring to Chenyuan?”

”This I actually know. When Chenyuan was still weak, my master once saved his life and guided him in cultivation. He might have somewhat regarded my master as his master, at least as his teacher. And young master practiced my master’s Ancient Tree Inheritance, so it’s natural for Chenyuan to treat young master kindly.” Brother Gute squinted and said.

Although the Ancient Tree Elder is a life form from the Ancient Tree Space, his understanding of the laws is also very powerful, as evident from the power of Gravity Magic. Although Gravity Magic does not belong to the category of Secret Techniques, its essence is still Dao Skill, not Physical Body Power. To be precise, the source Dao Skill of Gravity Magic surpasses numerous laws in the Endless Chaos, as even Space-Time cannot escape the bindings of Gravity Magic.
