Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3372: Awakening the Artifact Spirit (2)

Watching as the nine of them rapidly grew more feeble, Jian Chen became helpless. In the next moment, he opened the space in his soul without any hesitation.

The space in his soul stored a large quantity of precious resources. Not only were there various God Tier heavenly resources, but there were even various resources from the Xuanhuang Microcosm that possessed pure Xuanhuang Qi.

Jian Chen directly skipped past these heavenly resources, making his way to the very depths.

There was a spine stored there.

It was a spine, but it seemed more like a piece of wood. ????????????re????????. ????o????

This was the spine of the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits that he had obtained from the Darkstar race.

Not only did the spine contain the presence of the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirits, but it also contained an extremely tremendous energy. This dense life essence seemed to be enough to nourish the entire cosmos and support all of life.

“The Source of Life is the sovereign of the Wood Spirits’ lifebound god artifact, while this spine belongs to the sovereign of the Wood Spirits. All I can do now is hope that it can be of some use.” Jian Chen prayed inside as he stared at the spine in the space in his soul silently.

This was the only item on him that was related to the sovereign of the Wood Spirits. If even it was useless, then there was really nothing else he could do.

Sucking in a deep breath uneasily, Jian Chen took out the spine of the sovereign of the Wood Spirits resolutely.

Immediately, an immense presence of life emanated out. It was tremendous and grand, filling the space and present everywhere.

Laying on the ground and still offering up their lives, the Jade Heaven Ruler and everyone else immediately became reinvigorated when they sensed this tremendous presence of life. Their ashen faces immediately lit up.

“There’s a response. There’s a response. Only the spirit of the ancestral artifact can give off such an immense presence of life.”

“Is this a sign of the spirit of the ancestral artifact’s awakening? Fantastic, this is just fantastic. The spirit of the ancestral artifact is finally awakening.”

“The first ancestor didn’t lie. We really awakened the spirit of the ancestral artifact. Hahahaha, once the spirit of the ancestral artifact awakens, our Wood Spirits will welcome a new age of glory.”

“Many of the ancestors in the past were legendary Grand Primes. From today onwards, we will also have the chance to reach that realm.”

“Quick, everyone put in a bit more effort. The spirit of the ancestral artifact has only responded. It hasn’t awakened completely. We need to strike while the iron is hot!”

The experts of the Wood Spirits called out excitedly. They were extremely emotional.

The sovereign’s spine in Jian Chen’s hand rapidly gave off a presence of life. This presence merged perfectly with the surroundings, so the Wood Spirits kneeling on the ground completely failed to realise that the presence of life originated from his hands.

According to their senses, this unimaginably pure presence of life came from the surroundings. It originated from every inch of space there, so they subconsciously connected it to the spirit of the ancestral artifact.

They all believed that this was a sign of the spirit of the ancestral artifact’s awakening.

At this moment, Jian Chen’s expression suddenly changed, and he stared dead straight at the Grand Exalt’s spine in his hand. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NovelEnglish.net

The Grand Exalt’s spine in his hand dissipated at a visible rate. All of the life energy within merged with the surrounding space.

Watching the shrinking spine in his hand, Jian Chen felt like his heart was bleeding inside.

He had obtained the sovereign of the Wood Spirits’ spine from the Darkstar Emperor after great difficulty. However, before he could even use it, he had to give it up to the artifact spirit of the ancestral artifact for nothing.

That left him extremely conflicted. He wanted to keep the spine for himself, but as long as the artifact spirit remained in slumber, not only would he be unable to leave this place, but even the curse from the Dao Saint Union would remain. As a result, he could only give up on it painfully and use the sovereign’s spine.

“Source of Life, I’m giving up a sovereign’s spine for you. You better not disappoint me,” Jian Chen thought.

He had basically thought everything through now. When the first ancestor said the spirit of the ancestral artifact would awaken with this generation, she was not actually referring to the Wood Spirits of this generation awakening it.

The person who would awaken the spirit of the ancestral artifact would not be experts of the Wood Spirits, but him, Jian Chen.

More accurately, it would be due to the sovereign’s spine that he had brought in with him.

The nine rulers of the Wood Spirits only served as the door-openers at most.

The first ancestor was unable to see Jian Chen, but she could see the nine rulers, which was why she had said that the spirit of the ancestral artifact would awaken from its slumber during the age of these nine rulers.

“The first ancestor sure was capable, to actually see today from countless years ago.” Jian Chen sighed in amazement over the first ancestor’s strength.

Right now, he even began to suspect that the first ancestor was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime.

Very soon, the sovereign’s spine in Jian Chen’s hand completely vanished. It completely turned into tremendous and surging life energy that filled the surroundings, absorbed by the world.

The nine experts of the Wood Spirits ravished with joy. They could already see the hope of the artifact spirit awakening, so they all began to offer up themselves at a faster rate.

Very soon, their presences plummeted from the remaining thirty percent to twenty percent.

The loss of their life left them extremely feeble.

At this moment, there was a great ripple from the hill. A giant swirl suddenly appeared around the small wooden hut at the top. All the energy that permeated the surroundings rushed towards the swirl furiously.

As the energy was rapidly absorbed, all of them could clearly sense a powerful consciousness gradually awakening from slumber within this swirl.

“This consciousness is the spirit of the ancestral artifact. It must be the spirit of the ancestral artifact!”

At this moment, all nine experts trembled from excitement. Their hearts were filled with jubilation.

Even Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly. He sat in the air and stared straight at the small wooden hut.

“I-it’s master’s presence… M-master hasn’t passed away?”

At this moment, a faint voice echoed in the surroundings, immediately causing the entire world to shake violently.

At that moment, the ground heaved as the sky reversed. All of the plants that grew in this world seemed to gain a spiritual nature, morphing into heavenly resources and radiating with powerful presences.

Laws materialised clearly as nets, filling every inch of space, creating new laws.

“No, master has already passed away. Why would master’s presence appear here?” The faint voice rang out again. It was a woman’s voice, filled with a sense of indiscriminate love within the gentleness, but there was also some confusion and suspicion.

But in the next moment, she seemed to sense something. Icy-cold killing intent immediately filled the surroundings.

Whether it was Jian Chen or the nine experts of the Wood Spirits, they all felt like they had been plunged into icy-cold water the moment the killing intent appeared. They shivered all over.

“It’s actually an outsider and the wretched presence of the Saints’ World! How dare you!” This time, the faint voice rang out again, but all of the gentleness and love had vanished. It turned into biting coldness. Murderousness filled the air.

It was as if it had just been triggered, leading to a drastic change in mood.

At that moment, an illusionary mountain appeared over Jian Chen’s head, crushing down with a mighty pressure.

Jian Chen’s expression changed drastically. Before the pressure, he was actually unable to move at all. His entire body was pinned down.

He could only stay put and let the illusionary mountain fall on him.

He obviously would not just wait for that to happen. He let out a great bellow, and his presence poured out. He pushed the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space to the limits, and his Chaotic Force no longer suppressed the Dao Union Saint’s curse either, mobilising it completely.

He gathered the greatest powers in him and launched a strike upwards. The surging energy rushed into the sky and forcefully slammed against the illusionary mountain.

However, this was a sovereign god artifact’s power after all. Jian Chen stood no chance at all. As soon as the two collided, his full-powered attack collapsed.

Meanwhile, the illusionary mountain continued onwards, falling down on Jian Chen with a great boom and pinning him underneath firmly.
