Chapter 1401: Chapter 643: Back from the Dead!
"So, it’s not just the Molan Mansion, but several other mansions have also witnessed high-skilled individuals appearing."
"It seems these people are up to something, but the Three Judicial Departments haven’t figured it out yet?"
The Chen Sheng brothers, who had come back, arrived at Qiuyuan once again.
They roughly explained the situation they uncovered.
"No killing, no robbing, so what exactly are they doing?"
Chen Xuan slightly frowned, then released a stream of Spiritual Power into the air. Moments later, the Spiritual Power outlined a map.
This was the entire Eastern Continent.
"Which mansions, mark them out."
"Yes, Grandpa!"
Chen Sheng flicked out several streams of Spiritual Power, marking a total of ten mansions, including Molan Mansion.
"Hmm?"
Chen Xuan let out a sound of puzzlement, then, under his control, the ten mansions connected with each other, immediately revealing a pattern.
"Why does this look so familiar?"
He looked at the outlined pattern, searching his memory.
"The Stone Tribe’s totem!"
Chen Xuan suddenly remembered; he had seen it in the main hall of the Stone Race Sacred Land before.
"Stone Tribe?!"
"That’s not right!"
Back then, Qin Yu had refined all ten perilous lands; only the Celestial Eye Forest of the Tree-man Race was saved by him in the end.
What was going on?
"Grandpa...."
Chen Sheng softly called out seeing he hadn’t spoken.
"Alright, you two don’t worry about this matter."
"Ah... Grandpa, are you going to investigate personally?" Chen Jin was very surprised. Did this matter really require Grandpa’s involvement?
"Didn’t you say you couldn’t find out? Grandpa has nothing better to do anyway, just to pass the time." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
He then sent the two away.
"Really?"
Su Wanqiu, who knew him best, questioned. Pass the time out of boredom? How could that be possible!
"You always see through me; something’s not right, but it’s not a big problem." He had some confidence in this, as he was currently invincible in the Supreme Domain.
Even if someone came from the Upper Domain... one-on-one, he feared nothing!
...
Chen Xuan patrolled Molan Mansion.
He didn’t miss any county or village, yet there was no discovery.
He then patrolled the other nine mansions one after another.
The result remained the same.
In mid-air, Chen Xuan frowned deeply, feeling as though everything had vanished completely.
Among the ten mansions, he did not sense any abnormal aura, nor was there anything unusual.
However, the more it seemed like this, the more Chen Xuan felt that things were not simple.
"You want to play? Well, I’ll accompany you thoroughly!"
A cold gleam flashed in Chen Xuan’s eyes.
...
Night!
In a detached courtyard within the Jiuyue Mansion.
"It seems the Great Chen has taken action. Should we pause for now?"
A bald man spoke in a deep voice.
"No, the higher-ups can’t wait any longer. We must complete the ten totems swiftly; only then can we weaken the spatial barriers between the Upper and Lower Domains."
The man speaking had a sinister face, and particularly, his eyes were blood-red.
There were ten people present, but only this sinister man had connections with the Upper Domain.
His strength was also the strongest among the ten, at the Ninth Layer of the Dao Realm, but no one knew which level exactly within the ninth.
"It’s fortunate that many of the Stone Tribe’s totem’s spatial nodes overlap with other totems."
"Be cautious afterward, and there won’t be major issues."
While speaking, he glared at a slightly green-skinned man, "From now on, you don’t need to take action, just specialize in concealing auras."
The green-skinned man nodded, "That will work."
The three of them made the final decision, while the other seven did not even have the right to speak.
Their only contribution might be their own blood essence.
...
Half a month swiftly passed.
Chen Xuan left his Spiritual Power clones in each mansion, but those people never appeared again.
As for them avoiding his perception, he didn’t believe it.
In Molan Mansion, inside the study of Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
Chen Xuan looked at his two sons.
"I didn’t expect An’Er to be faster."
To be honest, he was quite surprised.
After all, Xiaoqi was cultivating his Nine Elements Dao Skill and Myriad Manifestation Skill; the Supreme Dao Skill was derived from these two Cultivation Techniques, although more profound, there were still some similarities.
Logically, Xiaoqi should have found it easier to get started.
However, the result was Chen An.
"No wonder he is considered the genius of the subrealm for hundreds of thousands of years."
Even in such circumstances, Chen Xuan had to admit, talent is an invisible yet tangible presence.
However, for both, it would still take several big years to cultivate the Supreme Dao Skill to the entry level.
The Pseudo Emperor realm wasn’t easily overcome.
After staying for a while longer, he left the study.
...
In the Imperial City of Great Chen.
"Now there’s only one final spatial node left."
In half a month, under the concealment of the green-skinned man, they had silently set up all spatial nodes except for the one in the Imperial City.
Once the final node in the Imperial City was completed.
Everything will activate, and by then, the impact of the ten totems will weaken the barriers between the Upper and Lower Domains, potentially shortening the time by at least half, or even more.
The World Tree grows weaker day by day, and the higher-ups can no longer wait.
The ten perilous lands’ tribes were initially the Upper Domain’s fallback plan.
They hadn’t expected Qin Yu to wipe them out.
Finally, using supreme methods, the Upper Domain merged the remaining ten tribes’ auras in the cores of the ten perilous lands, creating these ten individuals.
And the sinister man was born in the Blood Pool of the Blood Race.
Only due to the Blood Pool’s power did he achieve mid-Ninth Layer strength.
"However, the node seems to be inside the Imperial Palace, which is troublesome."
The speaker was that brawny man, who was born among the Stone Tribe.
