The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1973: Chapter 1973: Storms and Turmoil

Luoshui Divine Palace, Yihua Palace Master in a white dress, silently returned from the outside world.

Yihua’s Liu Mei slightly frowned, her face covered with frost. She had just received news that Ancestor Hong Jun of the Hongjun Heavenly Palace had fallen. Originally, she was traveling at the edge of Chaos, and upon hearing this, she immediately established a wormhole to return to Luoshui Divine Palace.

Luoshui Divine Palace, Boundaryless Spirit Mountain, Wansheng Valley, and Hongjun Heavenly Palace all have their headquarters in the Ultimate Land. However, the Ultimate Land is also very vast, and the Four Ultimate Forces are situated in the southeast, southwest, and north. Among the Four Ultimate Forces, Luoshui Divine Palace is quite special; within it, the vast majority of strong individuals are women.

The complex of Luoshui Divine Palace is located beneath a sheet of ice river.

Upon returning to Luoshui Divine Palace, Yihua Palace Master immediately summoned the strong individuals of Controller Level in the Luoshui Divine Palace, instructing them to closely monitor the developments in Chaos.

The fall of a Title Controller must be hiding something behind it. Furthermore, the fallen person is a Chaos Giant like Ancestor Hong Jun.

Besides these ultimate forces obtaining the news and taking action promptly, top chaos countries like Shelun Country are also in turmoil.

If Ancestor Hong Jun has indeed fallen, then something major is about to happen in Endless Chaos.

Throughout the long years of Endless Chaos, the fall of a Title Controller is rare. Moreover, almost every time a Title Controller has fallen, it is followed by a chaotic disturbance.

Besides, the strength of a Title Controller is immense; under normal circumstances, they cannot fall. Killing a Title Controller is exceedingly difficult. Even when the Devouring Heaven Clan’s army attacked the Ultimate Land, they did not cause any Title Controller to fall. Title Controllers stand at the peak of Endless Chaos. The dangers in Chaos, for Title Controllers, pose very little true threat.

As the news of Ancestor Hong Jun’s fall gradually spread, not only forces of the Five Lands and Seven Countries tremble but even Controller Level strong individuals within Chaos who have not joined major forces foresee an imminent major event.

Hongjun Heavenly Palace can become an ultimate force because it has a Title Controller like Ancestor Hong Jun. Without Ancestor Hong Jun at the helm, on what basis can Hongjun Heavenly Palace stand on equal footing with ultimatum forces like Void Divine Hall?

For a force without a Title Controller, the strongest level is similar to Shelun Country. Within forces like Shelun Country, there are strong individuals capable of confronting a Title Controller directly, such as Chenyuan Emperor of Shelun Country. But lacking a Title Controller means they still fall short of the Five Ultimate Forces by a tier in the eyes of outsiders.

For Hongjun Heavenly Palace, if Ancestor Hong Jun is no more, their situation becomes even more precarious. Void Divine Hall has been targeting Hongjun Heavenly Palace recently. Without Ancestor Hong Jun’s stabilizing force, how could Void Divine Hall miss the opportunity on Hongjun Heavenly Palace? It can be imagined that Void Divine Hall’s actions will only become more numerous and greater.

Time flows continuously.

Within Hongjun Heavenly Palace, Vice Palace Masters Ye Zhen and Quin along with Chaos Hall Masters are gathering more frequently.

Adverse news is constantly arriving from various corners of Chaos, impacting Hongjun Heavenly Palace.

Hongjun Heavenly Palace, being one of the ultimate forces, also holds many resources within Endless Chaos, such as some commercial institutions and numerous ore veins. Now, Void Divine Hall is already taking action on Hongjun Heavenly Palace’s industries.

Hongjun Heavenly Palace retreats step by step, forced to shrink comprehensively. Even so, Void Divine Hall continues to pursue tightly.

During this period, Vice Palace Masters Ye Zhen and Quin have not been idle either. They are continuously sending out messages, seeking aid from strong individuals and forces that previously had good relations with Hongjun Heavenly Palace.

But this plea for help has not been very effective. Even if Hongjun Heavenly Palace promises those strong individuals and forces many resources and benefits, not many respond. As the news of Ancestor Hong Jun’s fall has spread, everyone knows Void Divine Hall’s actions are relentless. Helping Hongjun Heavenly Palace now is essentially going against Void Divine Hall. They also have to consider the possibility that if Hongjun Heavenly Palace collapses, Void Divine Hall might turn its attention to them.

Therefore, most strong individuals and forces adopt a cautious attitude towards aiding Hongjun Heavenly Palace. Even if there are those willing to help Hongjun Heavenly Palace, they don’t take immediate action. They need to wait until they can see more clearly.

One troubling issue is that not only Hongjun Heavenly Palace is sending messages everywhere, Void Divine Hall is also sending out messages. Moreover, many messages to strong individuals and forces are personally issued by Void Divine Hall Master He Ming. A message directly from a Chaos Giant Title Controller cannot be ignored by anyone.

In summary, the situation for Hongjun Heavenly Palace is perilous, giving a feeling of being on the verge.

At this moment, Jing Yan is still secluded within the Ancient Tree Space, cultivating. He is unaware of the news in Chaos.

After receiving the blessing from the Primordial Chaos Tree, Jing Yan’s progress in Ancient Tree Inheritance has been immense, almost mastering the Ninth Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance. In this retreat, Jing Yan plans to make a concerted effort to fully master the Ninth Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance.

He now possesses abundant resources and with the assistance of Primordial Ancient Tree Leaves, his cultivation progresses swiftly, improving rapidly.

On this day!

Jing Yan wielded the Ancient Tree Inheritance, shattering the final barrier of this Secret Technique.

Boom!

The Ninth Layer of Ancient Tree Inheritance is finally mastered.

With a slight thought, Jing Yan’s body surface emitted a purple radiance. These purple rays, seemingly tangible, covered Jing Yan’s skin. He appeared as if he was a purple person. The purple radiance contained a terrifying fluctuation of power.

”Such powerful strength!”

”Ancient Tree Inheritance, truly the pinnacle Chaotic Level Secret Skill!” Jing Yan felt the might of Ancient Tree Inheritance.

”Now, solely relying on the power of Ancient Tree Inheritance, I should be able to surpass most Controller Level strong individuals in Chaos.” Jing Yan clenched his palm, observing the purple radiance on its surface.

Jing Yan felt unparalleled power surging through his entire being.

”But...”

”Although I have mastered the Ninth Layer of the Ancient Tree Inheritance, there is a lingering sense of incompleteness. It seems something is still lacking.” Jing Yan slightly frowned.

He repeatedly cycled through the complete content of this Secret Technique in his mind, seemingly mastering the Ancient Tree Inheritance thoroughly. Yet, through the evolution of Fate Dao, he faintly sensed that there might still be some parts of the Secret Technique that remain elusive.
