Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1045: Formation, Taboo Calamity!

Soon, Ye Chen, Liu Mubai, and Xu Yanran entered the forbidden area of the Martial Alliance together.

The three of them stayed at the exit position.

No need to spend so much effort searching for the Token fragments; let the other three groups search for them.

The most convenient thing in the world is to snatch something.

Although it doesn’t sound so good.

But it brings joy.

Snatching from enemies doesn’t carry any guilt.

After chatting for a while, Ye Chen learned that Liu Mubai’s Martial Dao had swiftly entered the Emperor Realm thanks to the Celestial Blade Emperor’s assistance.

Xu Yanran’s Martial Dao also entered the Emperor Realm as a result of the Celestial Blade Emperor’s handiwork.

Obviously, the Celestial Blade Emperor paid a significant price to help Liu Mubai and Xu Yanran enter the Emperor Realm, preparing them to lift the coffin lid, knowing full well that he wouldn’t return.

”The other three groups don’t have a Great Emperor, but they all have veteran Emperor Realm warriors, making it hard to snatch. So, it will certainly be a tough battle. Uncle, are you okay?” Ye Chen asked.

Liu Mubai felt depressed enough to spit blood.

His nephew always loved to tease him from time to time.

A bad habit fostered over time.

If he had known earlier, he would have disciplined him more; now it’s too late to do so.

”No problem. As long as they aren’t Great Emperors, I can fight!”

Ye Chen nodded, then looked at Xu Yanran, saying, ”Aunt Master, you...”

Xu Yanran: ”As long as they aren’t Great Emperors, I can also fight.”

As she spoke, with a swish, a long saber appeared in Xu Yanran’s hand.

The saber’s light was chilling, and the tip was stained with what seemed like corrosion marks.

Ye Chen stared at this saber.

Even stronger than the Emperor’s Long Saber used to set up the Sword Mountain Purgatory by Tong Dabao, the aura emanating from just the blade itself made Ye Chen’s heart palpitate.

”Is this... the Celestial Blade Emperor’s saber?”

Xu Yanran nodded, ”It’s my father’s saber. It has transcended the Emperor’s weapon level, yet hasn’t reached the Divine Weapon level, but it is enough. With my first level of Emperor Realm strength, wielding this saber with the Two-Cut Saber Technique, I can fight anyone below a Great Emperor!”

Ye Chen: ”Why is the saber tip damaged?”

Xu Yanran: ”When my father slashed toward the heavens back in the days, one saber split the sky. After retracting the saber, the tip was stained with blood—blood from a creature of the Divine Realm. This trace of blood can’t be wiped off, causing corrosion to my father’s saber.

However, despite this bit of corrosion affecting its sharpness, it gives the saber a more terrifying power.

Even an Emperor Realm warrior, once their flesh is torn by this saber, won’t recover easily.”

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow.

The Celestial Blade Emperor was indeed formidable!

Luckily, he isn’t truly dead and there’s hope for rescue.

Of course, Ye Chen didn’t reveal the news that the Celestial Blade Emperor was still alive.

Being trapped in the First Generation Celestial Burial Coffin, the rescue effort would be extremely challenging, with little certainty of success.

Ye Chen: ”To be cautious, I need to set up the Divine Stone Array. After all, we must guard against all three groups coming out simultaneously. The three of us will face one veteran Emperor Realm each, and we’ll use the Divine Stone Array to trap the others, preventing them from escaping!”

Liu Mubai: ”You just advanced to Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser not long ago? And you already know how to set up the Divine Stone Array?”

Ye Chen: ”Uncle, why don’t you ask me how long I’ve been in contact with the path of Divine Appraisers? Just a Divine Stone Array, what’s there to be surprised about?”

Liu Mubai was left speechless.

Indeed, Ye Chen only became involved with the path of Divine Appraisal after arriving at the Celestial Burial Sea.

And he had been at the Celestial Burial Sea...for less than a year when he advanced to Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser.

Thinking about it, Ye Chen’s ability to set up the Divine Stone Array wasn’t that surprising.

”Swish!”

Liu Mubai drew his sword from its sheath and silently walked to the side.

Filling with pent-up anger.

Later will vent it by slashing at the enemy!

Xu Yanran: ”Ye Chen, your uncle has dignity too...save him some face.”

Ye Chen: ”...Aunt Master, I know. Indeed, I’ve been tempering my uncle’s mindset, giving him a bit of anger so that he’ll have more energy later to slash the enemy.

Unpolished jade isn’t useful.

I have to take care of my uncle and help him to become successful.”

Xu Yanran couldn’t hold back and giggled.

This was the first time she smiled since the Celestial Blade Emperor’s incident.

Not far away.

Liu Mubai’s face was black as coal.

Ye Chen chuckled: ”Aunt Master, go accompany my uncle; I’ll get busy now.”

...

The Divine Stone Array is very complex and is entirely different in concept from arrays set up by Spirit Masters.

Ye Chen hadn’t set up a Divine Stone Array before, but he had destroyed the Divine Stone Array of Old Thief Mingkong on the Celestial Child Divine Island, gaining a certain understanding from it.

While on the Celestial Child Divine Island, he acquired an Ancient Divine Array and gleaned some insights from it.

Now, fiddling with it shouldn’t pose much of a problem.

Several hours passed.

Ye Chen finally finished setting up the Divine Stone Array.

Though it lacked rules and the power was chaotic, Ye Chen tested it, and it worked well. Even several Emperor Realm warriors together wouldn’t easily break through in a short time.

As for the offensive and killing power of the Divine Stone Array, Ye Chen didn’t manage to set it up.

He really didn’t comprehend it, his reference was mainly the Divine Stone Array from the Celestial Child Divine Island, and that array only had defensive and trapping effects.

Ye Chen was quite exhausted.

Liu Mubai and Xu Yanran, the couple, walked to the edge of the activated Divine Stone Array.

”Ye Chen, although the Martial Alliance has a Divine Stone Array, it seems intrinsically different from the one you’ve set up.” Xu Yanran said.

Liu Mubai looked at Ye Chen suspiciously: ”Did you just mess this up?”

”Don’t worry about the details; as long as it works, it’s fine.”

Ye Chen said casually, immediately shifting the topic, ”By the way, doesn’t the Martial Alliance also have a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser? With such upheaval happening at the Martial Alliance, hasn’t that Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser made any statements?”

Xu Yanran shook her head, ”Before my father’s accident, Celestial Master Zhang went into closed seclusion. I have an uneasy feeling, but my father wouldn’t tell me the reason, only instructing us not to disturb Celestial Master Zhang at any cost...”

Liu Mubai also said: ”I also can’t understand this matter, and lately, unusual happenings frequently occur around Celestial Master Zhang’s closed seclusion area, with constant eerie winds and sometimes chilling laughs... putting everyone on edge.”

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed.

Divine Appraiser Taboo!

The Martial Alliance’s Celestial Master Zhang must have already encountered a taboo, with calamity looming!

Earlier, on Divine Mirror Island, Island Master Sikong Zhaixing told Ye Chen that Divine Appraisers would attract taboo calamities, but regular Divine Appraisers have a very low likelihood of inciting taboos; it’s the Celestial-tier Divine Appraisers who have a high chance of facing disaster.

Ye Chen had inherited the Secret Technique to combat taboos from the Sikong Clan’s ancestor on Divine Mirror Island.

Originally intending to wait until he himself encountered taboos to try out the effectiveness of the Secret Technique.

Now... he has the opportunity!

If the Sikong Clan’s ancestor’s Secret Technique proves ineffective, he must prepare early for alternatives.

After all, it is still an incomplete Secret Technique that needs testing.

This time, a trial can take place!

Ye Chen: ”Uncle, Aunt Master, once matters here are settled, take me to where Celestial Master Zhang is secluded at the Martial Alliance—I need to take significant action!”

Xu Yanran: ”But my father instructed...”

Ye Chen: ”If I don’t go, Celestial Master Zhang is doomed. If I go, there might be a chance to save him.”

Liu Mubai: ”Do you know something?”

Ye Chen: ”Uncle, don’t ask anymore; this is a matter concerning Celestial-tier Divine Appraisers.”

Liu Mubai: ”...”

His heart was stabbed again!

Xu Yanran bit her lip and said, ”Alright, after finishing here, I’ll take you.”

Ye Chen grinned, saying, ”Get ready for action; someone’s coming to deliver the Token fragments to us!”
