Chapter 3001 – The Azure Dragon’s Aura and the Sword Qi of the Crystal Sword
Yue Changzhi’s face turned red, he found the situation funny and annoying at the same time. Jiang Chen’s action of forcing him to bow was out of his expectation. He had never bowed before the Inner Palace Elders, not even to the City Lord. Strong experts always maintained their own dignity as each of them could soar in the sky in one day. Hence, bowing down to someone was not a necessary etiquette anymore.
“Jiang Chen!”
Yue Changzhi gritted his teeth, his face looked ghastly pale.
“A man doesn’t kneel down easily, Third Elder.”
“A real man can deal with all setbacks and failures well. Bowing down doesn’t mean anything.”
Third Elder said in a low voice and Yue Changzhi knew that the elder was near the point of breakdown. He was left with no choice since Jiang Chen was the only person who could break the formation at the moment. He had no alternative but to sacrifice Yue Changzhi in this situation.
“Fine!”
Yue Changzhi fell heavily on the ground, bowed before Jiang Chen and said in a low voice, “Brother Jiang, please forgive me if I have offended you earlier.”
“Oh, that is great. The formation will break easily if I am in a good mood.”
Jiang Chen said calmly, making Yue Changzhi spurt out a mouthful of blood, he had suffered a great humiliation. Compared to the injury that he had suffered, the oppression of the elder had made him boil with rage from the unbearable torment he’s experiencing. To think that he, Yue Changzhi, was forced to bear such insults.
“Jiang Chen, I vow to fight you to the death!”
Yue Changzhi looked gloomy and pale. Huang Bo was trying to hold him back, slightly shaking his head.
“Break the formation now. I hope you’re not lying, or else, I will make you die miserably.”
Dou Tianhuang said in a low voice.
“If others can’t do it, it doesn’t mean that I also can’t.”
Jiang Chen answered and turned away. He headed straight for the sword platform.
“What are you going to do?”
The elder looked confused.
“Breaking the formation, of course.”
After saying so, he held the sword with both of his hands and lowered his body. He was concentrating with rapt attention. A moment later, the platform turned rapidly, filling the others with great astonishment. Especially the Third Elder and Dou Tianhuang, they knew well how powerful the Floating Stones were. Perhaps even a God Emperor would not be able to move them at all. However, Jiang Chen managed to do just that. How could he do it?
The Sword Platform made a 180 degree turn. At this moment, the Nine Dragons Jade Tower started moving at a constant rate and eventually lined up in a row. The Azure Stone Gate opened slowly.
“The Sword Platform is the foundation of the formation. If it is turned, the Azure Stone Gate will be opened as well. In fact, this Nine Dragons Exorcism Formation is just a way to fool us, the formation will be broken once the Sword Platform is turned over.”
Jiang Chen said with a serious look.
Being able to break the formation was amazing but what was most terrifying was being able to move the Sword Platform. Dou Tianhuang failed in all his attempts to move the platform but Jiang Chen was able to move it easily at once.
“How could you move the Sword Platform?”
Dou Tianhuang fixed his eyes on Jiang Chen.
It was not a difficult task for Jiang Chen; it was not as heavy as what they thought.
“Don’t you know that this Sword Platform is a Floating Stone?”
The Third Elder wore a frown on his face.
“Floating Stone? Are you talking about the stone from heaven?”
Jiang Chen was slightly startled. He suspected that this Sword Platform was extraordinary but he never thought that this was actually a Floating Stone. He had read it once in the ancient books of the Craftsman God. It was said that the Floating Stones were stones that fell from heaven and there were very few of them that remained in the Divine World. Moreover, each Floating Stone was as heavy as the Mountain Tai and only Great Emperor experts would be able to move it. Hence, it was also known as the ‘Divine Stone of Great Emperors’ which was the best material to make a Primal Origin Treasure.
“It seems like he’s not an ordinary person, I have to guard against him.” Third Elder thought.
Being able to break the formation successfully and with superb formation skills proved that Jiang Chen was special. He was even superior to Dou Tianhuang; it seemed like he should spare this kid’s life as he’s useful for them at the moment. However, he would kill him once they got out of there! The Third Elder realized that Jiang Chen did not have a sense of belonging to the Profound Connection Divine Palace and he would probably betray them in the future. Not only that, he even stood against the Second City Lord which showed that he was a stubborn and arrogant person. Therefore, this guy must be killed!
Although the Third Elder and Dou Tianhuang were unwilling to accept it, the fact was undeniable, they were unable to move that Sword Platform at all. They could not do anything about it. They stared at Jiang Chen and heaved a deep sigh in the distance.
“Oh, so the Sword Platform is a Floating Stone……is that great?”
Jiang Chen frowned. He wondered why he could move the Floating Stone so easily.
“What is that?”
Qian Renji looked at the huge Azure Stone Gate. The sky was full of green floating clouds, soaring into the sky constantly.
“That is the aura of the Azure Dragon which is beneficial for spiritual cultivation. It seems like the Great Emperor’s tomb is indeed extremely terrifying.”
Bing Yun answered. She had experienced the aura of the Azure Dragon that was raised by the Ancient Nine Region Emperor. Even if it's just the aura, it was already threatening and it was even stronger than the Divine Origin Qi.
“The Spiritual Water is the eye of the formation and there is the aura of the Azure Dragon as well. It is just impressive and remarkable.”
The Third Elder looked solemn. There was a dazzling sword on the Spiritual Water, it gleamed brightly like the Profound Ice Sword. Its sword Qi was bitterly cold and threatening.
“Terrifying!”
Everyone was greatly impressed with the sword. It was terrifying, which looked exactly like the sword that hurt Dou Tianhuang earlier on the Sword Platform.
At the moment, Dou Tianhuang dared not strike out nor seize the Crystal Sword. Even though the sword caught his eyes, he could not stare at it from a distance since he had learned a lesson before.
“It is unbelievable that this Primal Origin Treasure is actually used to protect the spiritual spring water. What is the Ancient Nine Region Emperor trying to hide? This is just too creepy and frightening.”
The Third Elder said under his breath. All of them fixed their eyes on the Crystal Sword on the Spiritual Water. Each of them was staring at the Primal Origin Treasure covetously!
“This is a Primal Origin Treasure. I will be an invincible Great Emperor if I can get it.”
The Third Elder thought, he’s filled with excitement. The Crystal Sword was extremely powerful, its sword Qi could disperse a dragon’s breath easily. He guessed this must be an unbeatable weapon of the Ancient Nine Region Emperor in those days.
“I will get this for sure.”
Xue Liang’s eyes were glittering with bright light, soaring high into the sky. He was showing great interest in the Crystal Sword. It was not inferior to Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword.
