I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

”Before declaring war officially, we must resolve the worries of the various vassal states.”

Han Zhan suddenly remembered something and spoke up.

Currently, this world is controlled by the Celestial Gods, most regions are like this, if the problem of the Celestial Gods is not resolved, sending troops is just empty talk.

”Moreover, if there is a way to solve these Celestial Gods before Emperor Xin does, it would be a situation with double benefits.”

As soon as Han Zhan finished speaking, Jiang Ziya had already taken out something with a smile.

”I went on this journey precisely for this moment.”

”This is...”

This time, it was Han Zhan’s turn to be surprised.

He looked at the item in Jiang Ziya’s hand, which seemed a bit familiar, resembling a rolled-up brocade flag.

Even in its rolled-up state, he could see a faint glow emanating from it.

Han Zhan opened his mouth, but temporarily couldn’t think of a word he should be very familiar with.

At this moment, Jiang Ziya spoke: ”This item is—Investiture of the Gods.”

”Investiture of the Gods!” Han Zhan suddenly realized and instinctively repeated.

Seeing his reaction, Jiang Ziya curiously asked: ”Why, from your tone, have you heard of this item?”

Han Zhan shook his head.

He indeed had heard of it, but it should not be the same as the one in Jiang Ziya’s hand.

They just happen to have the same name.

”What is the function of the Investiture of the Gods?”

”It can seal the Celestial Gods, a permanent seal,” Jiang Ziya explained.

The Celestial Gods are not easy to target, and the means to deal with them are extremely limited.

Jhin counts as one, the Investiture of the Gods counts as the second.

”How does one seal the Celestial Gods?” Han Zhan asked again.

”Take it with you, and go to the regions controlled by Celestial Gods, open the Investiture of the Gods, it will forcibly pull the Celestial God and the holder of the Investiture into a special space.”

”As long as you can shatter the original Divine Spirit of the Celestial God in the special space, you can seal it inside.”

Having heard Jiang Ziya’s words, Han Zhan nodded knowingly.

Investiture of the Gods, sealing Celestial Gods, it truly lives up to its name.

”The master’s intention is for me to step forward, carry the Investiture of the Gods to various vassal states, and seal the Celestial Gods?”

Han Zhan had already understood Jiang Ziya’s intentions.

First, it’s about gathering people’s hearts, by Han Zhan tackling the Celestial God problem, he can gain more faith Wish Power.

Secondly, considering his current cultivation, Celestial Gods are just right for him to hone his skills in the Divine Realm, swiftly familiarizing and solidifying his realm, preparing for the final battle against Emperor Xin.

Finally, it can demonstrate the strength of the new king, convincing those wavering vassals to genuinely pledge their allegiance, unite for a common cause, and together depose the Shang Dynasty’s Emperor Xin.

”Exactly, I’ve had the Investiture of the Gods for quite some time, and I’m bringing it out now because the timing is perfect.”

”Helping voluntarily is far less effective than having someone ask for assistance.”

Embellishing the lily is not as good as providing timely help... Han Zhan thought of this, nodding his head.

During the time the two were talking,

Apart from the monarch of Yong Kingdom, indeed there were several other vassal state monarchs arriving at Xiqi one after another.

Just like the monarch of Yong Kingdom, they were persecuted by Jhin, Emperor Xin, their countries destroyed, and fled here.

There were even some worse off, where the monarchs were killed, not even able to escape.

Watching this scene, Jiang Ziya handed the item in his hand to Han Zhan, ”Take up the Investiture of the Gods and go. The opportunity for Xiqi has arrived.”

”Understood.” Han Zhan received the Investiture of the Gods from Jiang Ziya, his expression unprecedentedly serious.

From now on, every second counts!

...

Emperor Xin stood alone on the spot, eyes closed, as if savoring the taste of the Celestial God’s fate.

Behind him lay a sea of fire.

Yet another vassal state, along with the Celestial God controlling it, was buried at the hands of Jhin.

In just one day, several vassal states and Celestial Gods became his food successively.

With the more fates he devoured, his cultivation soared as well.

Like a snowball effect, the higher his cultivation, the faster he devoured fate, and the faster he devoured, the higher his cultivation.

Give Emperor Xin a few more days, he could exterminate all the world’s Celestial Gods.

Then, he would be the sole god of this world, a true deity!

When Jiang Ziya said Emperor Xin had ambition, he wasn’t wrong.

After a while, as Emperor Xin finished digesting the fate of a kingdom, he began heading towards his next target.

When he reached the target location, the sight before him left him stunned.

Empty.

Not a single person.

In the vast vassal territory, not a single shadow could be seen.

Furthermore, even the Celestial God high above had disappeared without a trace.

”Why?” The smile always present on Emperor Xin’s face vanished, ”Could another Jhin have interfered?”

No, absolutely not.

Emperor Xin could confirm that he was the world’s sole Fate Eater, there would not be a second coming.

Eliminating the possibility of another Fate Eater, Emperor Xin swiftly considered one potential, his gaze falling towards the distant direction of Xiqi.

”Master...”

Indeed, Jiang Ziya.

No matter how much he had transformed into Lu Tao, spending so many years by Jiang Ziya’s side, Emperor Xin as a Fate Eater had never found where his master’s Line of Destiny lay.

Jiang Ziya’s unfathomable nature had never made Emperor Xin underestimate him.

”However, solely relying on Jiang Ziya is not enough.”

The Celestial God’s realm is Divine Realm, Jiang Ziya hasn’t merged the four Supreme Treasures of the Ancestral Temple, should not be in the Divine Realm.

Another figure quickly surfaced in Emperor Xin’s mind.

”Ji Fa...”

Emperor Xin murmured, chuckling grimly, surprised that Xiqi dared truly to oppose him.

He slightly squinted his eyes, raising his hands, manifesting lines of destiny only visible to the Fate Eater appeared before him.

Most of these lines were severed.

This meant that the owners of these destiny lines had completely deviated from their respective fates, walking down a different road.

Emperor Xin did not speak, he silently continued forward.

Finally, in the central region of the deserted vassal state, he discovered the one intact Line of Destiny!

That most certainly belonged to Ji Fa’s Line of Destiny!

Upon finding this line, Emperor Xin’s face broke into a smile.

”If you want to snatch food from my mouth, you better be prepared to be consumed together.”

”Do you think this time, you can still escape?”

Emperor Xin said, extending his right hand, threading through numerous severed Lines of Destiny, grasping the line leading to the unknown.

Just like grabbing the Line of Destiny of the Celestial Gods.

Then, Emperor Xin used his Fate Eater talent, intending to repeat old tricks, completely devour Han Zhan’s fate.

After consecutively devouring several Celestial Gods’ fate, his Fate Eater realm saw a substantial advancement, brimming with confidence.

However, an accident occurred.

Emperor Xin forcefully tugged at Han Zhan’s Line of Destiny.

Only to find the line remained completely immovable!
