Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Xiao Chen Heads to the Venerable Secret Treasure, Ancient Blue Dragon Emperor Lineage, Dragon Jade Pool

Jun Zhangjian’s expression was filled with excitement.

The Primordial Heaven Venerable Order, which he had obtained several years ago, had never found a place to be used.

And now, finally, news of the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure had emerged.

”Oh, is the secret treasure about to appear?” Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze was calm.

He wasn’t too surprised, as this was within his expectations.

”Indeed,” Jun Zhangjian nodded, ”There are reports that an anomaly has appeared in the Southern Origin Dao Realm, with a pervasive Venerable Aura. It must be the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure.”

Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly and said, ”Very well, prepare for a bit, then we can set off.”

Jun Zhangjian continued, ”Divine Son, our Jun Family seems to have four Celestial Prides who have obtained the Primordial Heaven Venerable Orders.”

”Four?” Jun Xiaoyao was puzzled.

”You, the Divine Son, myself, Jun Xuehuang, and...” Jun Zhangjian hesitated, pausing slightly.

”Who?” Jun Xiaoyao asked indifferently.

”Jun Wanjie.” Jun Zhangjian exhaled and said.

He knew that Jun Wanjie didn’t really get along with Jun Xiaoyao.

”So it’s him, then it’s nothing.” Jun Xiaoyao said casually.

He possessed an invincible demeanor and was revered by his peers. A mere Jun Wanjie was nothing in his eyes.

In a few days, news of the appearance of the Venerable Secret Treasure in the Southern Origin Dao Realm began to spread across the Three Thousand Dao Realms.

The Venerable Secret Treasure, the treasure of a Supreme Venerable Powerhouse, was attractive even to Immortal Dao Lineages, let alone the lesser forces.

In no time, the entire Desolate Celestial Immortal Realm’s Three Thousand Dao Realms were in tumult.

It was to be expected that this would be a grand gathering of Celestial Prides and a stage for power struggles among various forces.

...

Outside a mountain range in Kunzhou.

The figures of Xiao Chen and Wu Mingyue appeared.

Previously, Xiao Chen had already found out that the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure had appeared in the Southern Origin Dao Realm.

Cyan Dragon Ascendant had also been urging him to obtain the ancient dragon bones within the secret treasure.

So he was preparing to head to the Southern Origin Dao Realm.

”Mingyue, do you want to accompany me to the Southern Origin Dao Realm?” Xiao Chen looked at Wu Mingyue with gentle eyes, filled with tenderness.

During this time, although he and Wu Mingyue had no substantial interactions,

their relationship had already become very harmonious.

This made Xiao Chen believe he was close to winning over Wu Mingyue.

Wu Mingyue’s face was covered with a white veil, her autumn water bright gaze looking at Xiao Chen with a hint of tenderness.

However, she still gently shook her head and said, ”I’m sorry, Xiao Chen. With the four powers gathering for the appearance of the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure, if I show up, my identity could easily be exposed, leading to my capture.”

Wu Mingyue’s words caused Xiao Chen’s expression to dim slightly.

He now knew Wu Mingyue’s true identity.

She was the Eldest Princess of the Panwu Divine Dynasty, with a status that was astonishingly high.

And the reason she escaped alone was that she didn’t want to face the matter of selecting a Prince Consort later.

She didn’t want her lifelong affairs intermingled with interests, manipulated by others.

”Mingyue, one day, I’ll go to the Panwu Divine Dynasty to marry you!”

For some reason, Xiao Chen, in a moment of heated emotion, suddenly blurted out.

Upon hearing this, Wu Mingyue’s jade complexion blushed like two patches of morning glow in the snow, stunningly beautiful.

”Xiao Chen, what nonsense are you saying?” Wu Mingyue showed a rare hint of shyness.

It’s often said that women in love are brainless.

Though Wu Mingyue hadn’t outright fallen, she indeed had developed feelings for Xiao Chen.

However, she also understood that although Xiao Chen was capable, he was not of an equal status.

The Panwu Divine Dynasty would never allow their Eldest Princess to marry a mere prince of the Cyan Dragon Ancient Country.

”Haha, rest assured, I, Xiao Chen, keep my word and will never renege!” Xiao Chen replied with a straightforward smile, exuding confidence.

That confident and sunny smile gave Wu Mingyue a special feeling.

Xiao Chen was different from all the young elites she had met, resilient and genuine.

Subsequently, despite his reluctance, Xiao Chen bid farewell to Wu Mingyue.

”Xiao Chen, although Mingyue cannot openly accompany you, I can still help you secretly. If you encounter any danger within the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure, Mingyue will surely assist you.”

Wu Mingyue whispered in her heart. She had already decided to follow Xiao Chen from the shadows.

The reason was an inexplicable premonition she had.

She felt Xiao Chen’s journey to the Primordial Heaven Venerable Secret Treasure would likely be extremely perilous.

...

The Ancestral Dragon Nest’s headquarters, Hongzhou.

Within a range of mountains stretching for thousands of miles, where Dragon Qi converged.

A majestic voice resonated.

”Jade Pool, back then, that Primordial Heaven Venerable was domineering and took several invaluable ancient dragon bones from our Ancestral Dragon Nest. With the secret treasure opening, go retrieve those dragon bones.”

As the words fell silent, another woman clad in green armor revealed herself.

Her face was delicately beautiful, her figure tall and slender, the green armor enveloping her balanced physique. She appeared heroic, like a woman of valor.

However, what caught the most attention about this woman were the two green dragon horns emerging between her lustrous black hair, signaling that she wasn’t of the Human Race but of the Ancient Royal Family.

This woman, named Dragon Jade Pool, was a dragon maiden of extraordinary talent from the Ancestral Dragon Nest.

In the Ancestral Dragon Nest, the status of dragon maidens equaled that of dragon sons.

In some regard, Dragon Jade Pool was even more formidable than Long Haotian.

Her lineage’s ancestor was once a Canglong Ancient Emperor.

An Ancient Emperor of the Taigu Royal Family was a Supreme Being on par with the Great Emperors of the Human Race.

Therefore, Dragon Jade Pool was said to possess a trace of Ancient Emperor Blood.

Although, over time, her Ancient Emperor Blood had become too diluted to be extracted,

she was, after all, a descendant of the Canglong Ancient Emperor’s lineage, and her talents went without saying.

”Yes, Jade Pool obeys the ancestor’s command and will definitely bring back the ancient dragon bones.” Dragon Jade Pool saluted with a heroic spirit, comparable to any man.

”By the way, you must be cautious of the Jun Family’s Divine Son. There’s a chance he will join the competition during the secret treasure’s opening.” The majestic voice advised.

”Is the Jun Family’s Divine Son that powerful?” Dragon Jade Pool furrowed her brows lightly.

She had heard much about the achievements of the Jun Family’s Divine Son these days, to the point that her ears were getting calluses.

”The entity that effortlessly killed Long Haotian, what do you think?” the voice replied.

”Long Haotian may have fused with a piece of Dragon Essence, but I have already fused with two Dragon Essences and have thoroughly refined them. In terms of power, he definitely can’t match me.”

Dragon Jade Pool’s snow-white chin raised slightly with a hint of self-assuredness.

Among unparalleled talents, who would yield to whom?

Until witnessing Jun Xiaoyao’s might firsthand, even their own, like Jun Zhangjian, would somewhat overlook and underestimate him.

Let alone Dragon Jade Pool, belonging to a rival faction.

Often, until truly defeated, these proud Celestial Prides never admit defeat in their hearts.

If they feared from the onset, their Dao Hearts would shatter, and there would be no point in continuing their cultivation.

”In any case, caution is paramount.” The voice warned.

”As you command, Jade Pool takes her leave,” Dragon Jade Pool gave a slight bow, not heeding the words, and departed, preparing to set off.

The majestic voice sighed, ”Ah, to think that our Canglong Ancient Emperor lineage originally had a direct descendant sealed within the Divine Origin, but she has now vanished, and the complete Cyan Heaven Dragon Transformation Technique has also been lost.”

”If we could find that direct descendant and break her seal, our Ancestral Dragon Nest would once again have an existence like Long Aotian.”

”By then, with the Forbidden Dragon Son and Forbidden Dragon Maiden appearing, what would the Jun Family’s Divine Son count for?”
