Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 4004: Four Divine Mountains

Daowei Chengqing sat in outer space peacefully as he quietly gazed at the three servants nearby.

By now, the three old servants had already gathered together. The two others erupted with a tremendous presence, using great might to suppress the servant who was breaking through, trying their best to stop him.

These kinds of breakthroughs were like instantaneous enlightenment. They were extremely swift and difficult to control. If it were only the one servant’s power alone, he would probably struggle to last until the elder princess had arrived.

After all, everything they possessed originated from the treasure from the Hole of Reincarnation. Under the effects of this exotic treasure, their situation could not be understood through regular logic.

Finally, the elder princess of the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance, Fang Jing, arrived after several hours. She wielded the Dominion’s Brush in her hand with over a dozen laws coiled around it like raging dragons. She shattered the space around her along the way, rushing over as quickly as possible.

“Brother!” Fang Jing immediately looked at Daowei Chengqing who sat on the side with a smile. She was extremely friendly.

Daowei Chengqing nodded gently in response. He pointed at the three servants and said, “Jing’er, I’ll have to rely on you for the matters here.”

Fang Jing looked at the three servants and seemed to see the issue with a single glance. “Brother, have you still not recalled the method to resolve this yet?”

Daowei Chengqing shook his head quietly.

Fang Jing sighed gently and said, “Your worries from back then really did end up happening. Before you reincarnated, you were worried that you would not be able to recover your memories completely or some accident would happen and prevent your memories from returning. They might even end up as incomplete. As a result, you specially instructed me to use the power of the Dominion’s Brush to resolve their issues when the need arose.”

“However, this is a method that only deals with the symptoms and not the underlying cause. The power of the Dominion’s Brush can indeed control their cultivation and prevent them from breaking through to the Eighth Heavenly Layer.”

“However, if they do want to reach the Eighth Heavenly Layer of Immortal Exalt, it’ll still have to be you who deals with it in the end.”

With that, Fang Jing appeared before the three old servants. With a casual toss, the Dominion’s Brush levitated above the head of the old servant. It produced a hazy glow as an ancient and profound presence pervaded the surroundings.

As Fang Jing produced a series of seals with her hand, the Dominion’s Brush immediately glowed brightly. Afterwards, a tremendous energy fell from it like a flood, turning into a curtain of energy that enveloped the servant.

Enveloped by the power of the Dominion’s Brush, a white bead slowly appeared above the servant’s head. It was only the size of a thumb. It was like white jade, shining with a hazy light as if it was some kind of ornamental gemstone.

When the white bead appeared, a presence unique to the Hole of Reincarnation filled the surroundings. It was very profound and bore the aura of the ways, which was very vague and difficult to describe.

But at this moment, the white bead began to tremble gently under the power of the Dominion’s Brush as if it feared something.

In the end, a seal fell down and stuck firmly onto the white bead. The white bead returned to the old servant’s body.

The white bead fell quiet, and the servant’s breakthrough came to a sudden halt. It had immediately deflated like a balloon.

“It’s finally been dealt with.” The two other servants who took part in suppressing him both let out sighs of relief before thanking Fang Jing.

Fang Jing stowed the Dominion’s Brush away and said without minding, “We’re all one family. Being so polite with one another instead makes us seem more like outsiders.” After a pause, Fang Jing gradually became stern and said to the three of them, “However, there is something that you must remember. The power of the Dominion’s Brush can only temporarily suppress your breakthrough. Your problem still has not been completely resolved. As a result, before my brother recovers his memories, you cannot try and break through. You even have to do your best to suppress any growth in your cultivation.”

“If you can’t keep it under control, remember to contact me immediately when you break through. In the present Immortals’ World, there’s probably no one else aside from me that can help you.”

“Thank you for your warning, your highness. We understand!” The three servants answered together.

However, one of the servants’ eyes shone with uncertainty. He said hesitantly, “Your highness, didn’t our master say that the Book of the Populace could also stop us from breaking through back then?”

“The Book of the Populace?” Fang Jing sneered as a hint of coldness flashed through her eyes. “The Book of the Populace can indeed stop it, given that the wielder knows the corresponding method and can wield the power of the Book of the Populace.”

“Without the corresponding method, without being able to wield the power of the Book of the Populace, it won’t be able to resolve anything even if it’s in the hands of a Grand Exalt.”

......

…

At this moment, in a foreign region of space far away from the Reverent Observance Heaven, Jian Chen sat on a damaged meteor. The mask from the Illusionary Daemon race and the Divine Armour of Heavenflight hid his presence flawlessly. None of it leaked out.

“I’ve finally gotten my hands on the most important Energy-gathering Divine Mountain out of the eighteen.” Jian Chen opened his hand slowly. The fist-sized Energy-gathering Divine Mountain appeared.

Gazing at the Energy-gathering Divine Mountain in his hand, Jian Chen was unable to hide his excitement.

This excitement was even greater than when he originally obtained the three Energy-gathering Divine Mountains from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

The Energy-gathering Divine Mountain in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was the most important one. In the past, he had managed to sense the whereabouts of the three divine mountains in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants through it.

“There were some risks, but it’s all worth it as long as I’ve recovered this Energy-gathering Divine Mountain.” Jian Chen was in a great mood. Now that he had obtained the most crucial mountain, he could gradually track down the whereabouts of the other ones.

Afterwards, Jian Chen placed the newly-obtained Energy-gathering Divine Mountain in the Primeval Divine Hall, combining it with the three other mountains.

With that, the formation assembled from the four Energy-gathering Divine Mountains immediately gathered spiritual Qi several times faster than before.

“The three divine mountains could gather spiritual Qi from three hundred million kilometres away. Now that I have four, the range has suddenly increased to a billion kilometres away…” Jian Chen could not help but click his tongue in amazement as he sensed how much stronger it had become.

With just an additional Energy-gathering Divine Mountain, the rate at which it gathered spiritual Qi had increased by over nine times. That was unexpected.

However, the increase only consolidated Jian Chen’s determination to find the other divine mountains.

He had already realised that with each additional Energy-gathering Divine Mountain, the rate at which he gathered spiritual Qi would multiply. Once he got his hands on a fifth divine mountain, it was very likely for the range to surpass two billion kilometres.

At this moment, Su Le called out in Jian Chen’s soul. However, he did not reply immediately. Instead, he continued to remain in hiding, travelling across a few more regions of space using the Laws of Space before stopping.

“I’m already extremely far away from the Reverent Observance Heaven now. Those people shouldn’t be able to find me here.” Jian Chen looked around at the surroundings before hiding inside a meteor and entering his sea of consciousness.
