Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3370: Strength Recovery

“Ancestor…”

Gazing at where the first ancester vanished, the nine experts of the Wood Spirits all called out mournfully. They were in grief.

Even though they had absolutely no contact with the first ancestor and had never met her, nor any particular feelings regarding her, that still was their ancestor after all, as well as the first ancestor in the Wood Spirits World.

The connection from their bloodlines forbade them from remaining calm. They felt the same grief as losing someone close.

“Ancestor, we don’t even know your name yet!” the Mayhemless Heavenly King cried out as he gazed at where the first ancestor once sat with a trembling gaze.

However, her figure was already gone from there.

The body she left behind turned into a rain of light that enveloped this region, leaving behind her remaining life energy and laws for the people of this generation.

“Quick, absorb the energy left behind by the ancestor. It can drastically increase our strength. Quick, or it’ll dissipate if we take too long.” At this moment, the Jade Heaven Ruler called out. She discarded her sorrow and immediately dismissed her thoughts, sitting down on the ground and absorbing the green rain of light as quickly as possible.

Seeing how the Jade Heaven Ruler had already taken action, the eight other rulers no longer hesitated, all dismissing their thoughts before absorbing the green rain of light as quickly as possible.

The rain of light contained a tremendous amount of life energy and fragments of ways. It was extremely helpful to them and could increase their strength rapidly.

As a result, none of them could resist the temptation to grow stronger. They basically fought over every droplet of it as they wolfed it down, afraid they would fall behind.

Jian Chen did not hold back either. He sat in the air using the Laws of Space and also began absorbing the life essence and fragments of laws.

Immediately, the sky full of green light surged towards the ten of them. They absorbed the gushing life energy and fragments of laws at an unprecedented rate.

The gathering of the light filled the area with colossal swirls with them sitting at the centre of all of it.

However, these swirls varied in size, which represented how quickly they absorbed everything. The swirl around Jian Chen was without a doubt the largest among the ten. He was on a completely different level when it came to his absorption speed.

Not only was he the strongest out of everyone present, but there was another important reason too—the Chaotic Body. The speed at which he absorbed the energy of the world could not be rivalled by cultivators of the same level.

Beneath Jian Chen was the Jade Heaven Ruler, followed by the Heaven Fighting Ruler.

As the life energy and fragments of laws were absorbed, everyone’s presence began to rise steadily, including Jian Chen’s. Their strength was increasing at a visible rate.

Particularly with Jian Chen, as he absorbed the life energy, as he refined the fragments of laws, he gradually became excited.

His Chaotic Body had been destroyed by the Anatta Grand Exalt in the past. Even though the Wind Venerable had managed to save him through impossible methods, his Chaotic Body had fallen by a level, going from the sixteenth layer to the fifteenth.

Even though the cracks in his soul had already been repaired and his physical injuries had healed, his Chaotic Body remained at the fifteenth layer.

Now, with the absorption of the life energy, his Chaotic Body was actually slowly growing stronger once again, gradually advancing towards the sixteenth layer.

It was not just his Chaotic Body. Even his soul was strengthening.

The life energy contained the first ancestors’ vital energies.

She was an Eighth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, or maybe even the Ninth Heavenly Layer. Even after all this time that had passed, such that very little of her life energy and fragments of laws remained, it was still at a very high quality.

As a result, although the bit of energy remaining from the first ancestor was perhaps nothing to a Grand Prime, it was definitely powerful enough to a group of juniors that were only Chaotic Primes.

As they absorbed it as quickly as they could, the life energy and fragments of laws left behind by the ancestor became thinner and thinner.

Finally, a month later, the rain of light that filled this place was completely depleted.

At this moment, a tremendous presence suddenly erupted. The Jade Heaven Ruler sat solemnly with her eyes gently closed as she shone with dazzling light. She was wrapped in the Laws of Life, turning her into something like a goddess, both beautiful and sacred. She was inviolable.

After absorbing the bestowments from the first ancestor, the Jade Heaven Ruler had formally broken through to the Third Heavenly Layer. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

The Heaven Fighting Ruler and the new Chaotic Primes had only broken through recently. Their cultivation was not consolidated enough. Coupled with various reasons like insufficient life energy and fragments of ways left by the first ancestor, they did not break through again, remaining at their current cultivation.

However, they were already extremely close, or perhaps already at, the peak of their current realms.

Of course, Jian Chen was still the one who benefitted the most. He alone absorbed almost half of the life energy and fragments of laws left behind by the first ancestor.

Such tremendous life energy directly allowed his Chaotic Body to return to prime condition, the sixteenth layer.

The cracks in his soul had all healed already, while his soul had returned to that of a Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime’s.

That was not all. After absorbing the fragments of laws left behind by the first ancestor, his Way of the Sword also experienced evident increases. It had already reached the highest peak of the major achievement of Sword Immortal.

His Laws of the Sword were only a step away from the great completion of Sword Immortal now.

Once his Laws of the Sword broke through again, he would reach the great completion; his Chaotic Body would also reach the seventeenth layer!

Silently sensing his current situation, Jian Chen opened his eyes slowly in satisfaction. He smiled faintly.

Now, he had basically returned to his prime condition. All that remained was the Dao Union Saint’s curse.

The bestowments from the first ancestor had been far too helpful to him. It drastically reduced the amount of time he needed to recover, saving him several years of arduous effort.

Jian Chen turned towards where the first ancestor previously sat and gradually became solemn. He slowly lowered his head and bowed deeply.

However, because his legs were immobilised, he bowed in a seated position, which seemed extremely strange.

“Thank you for your bestowments, ancestor!’

After Jian Chen, the other experts of the Wood Spirits all bowed towards the first ancestor’s position as well, apart from the Jade Heaven Ruler who was still breaking through. They were all sorrowful. Some of them even shed tears.

The lingering will of the first ancestor had existed for all these years, just to wait for them to enter here. In the end, she vanished from the world without even leaving her name behind after bestowing them with this fortune.

Her selfless sacrifices for the Wood Spirits deeply touched them. ????????????????????????????. ????????????

“We must follow the will left behind by the ancestor and awaken the spirit of the ancestral artifact,” an expert of the Wood Spirits said with determination.

He was from one of the peak clans of the Wood Spirits World, the ancestor of the Yongxi clan. His name was Yongxi Lantian.

“B-but how are we supposed to awaken the spirit of the ancestral artifact? The first ancestor never told us how to,” said a middle-aged man. He came from the Grand Heaven Domain and served as the head caretaker of the Divine Palace of Grand Heaven. He was also the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s subordinate, Jiang Zhantian.

“The first ancestor never told us the precise way. D-don’t tell me the way for us to awaken the spirit of the ancestral artifact is also through sacrifice?” A ruddy old man also spoke up among the seven new rulers.

He was an independent cultivator who lived as a recluse within the mountains. He was known as the Deep Mountain Elder.
