The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 919: Chapter 919: Ancestor of Principles

Chu Hongnan indeed isn’t much.

But Jing Yan beside Chu Hongnan is truly terrifying. They all knew that Jing Yan was Chu Hongnan’s grandson. Although from Jing Yan’s attitude toward Chu Hongnan, it could be seen that Jing Yan and Chu Hongnan weren’t very close, as he directly called him Chu Clan Leader.

But the two of Sheng Jing still didn’t dare to show any contempt toward Chu Hongnan. Even if they elevated themselves high, with Chu Hongnan and Jing Yan having a rift, Jing Yan would still only have a negative impression of them.

The two of Sheng Jing also knew that with someone like Jing Yan backing them, it would be hard for the Chu family not to thrive. They could foresee that within the Five Great Divine Regions, the Chu family would become increasingly powerful, and in a few hundred to a thousand years, even without relying on Jing Yan, they would be able to compare with their two first-grade forces.

”Sect Master Sheng Jing, Clan Leader Liu Haiwei, you’re both too polite,” Chu Hongnan immediately responded with his gaze condensing slightly.

Both of them smiled.

”Lord Jing Yan, Chu Clan Leader, if there is nothing else, we will take our leave now,” the two of Sheng Jing, after exchanging glances, cupped their fists and said again.

Having received Jing Yan’s promise, they were reassured. They also understood that with Jing Yan’s strength, he wouldn’t intentionally deceive them, as there was no need for it. If Jing Yan wanted to eliminate their two forces, he could directly state it, and they wouldn’t have the capacity or means to resist.

”Please go ahead,” Jing Yan nodded and said.

The two of Sheng Jing quickly boarded the Liu Family Warship and left.

At this moment, the watching martial artists also left one after another with complex emotions. Naturally, they would spread the news of the defeat of the three major forces throughout the Five Great Divine Regions in a short time.

”Thank you, Mr. Zhong!” Jing Yan smiled and thanked upon seeing Mr. Zhong approach.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, there’s no need to be so polite. If I knew your strength was so formidable, I might not have come,” Mr. Zhong waved repeatedly.

When he saw Jing Yan kill Yin Shui, the half-step Void God, he was equally shocked. He knew Jing Yan’s martial arts cultivation was strong; he had seen Jing Yan kill two Saint Realm Third Stage martial artists with one palm strike outside Death Abyss. But he hadn’t expected Jing Yan to be strong enough to kill a top-tier Demigod like Yin Shui.

”Those jumping clowns like Dong Ze were just unlucky,” Mr. Zhong shook his head, ”The pattern of the Five Great Divine Regions will need to be reshuffled now. The Quicksand Divine Domain will definitely be controlled by the Chu family. As for the Tianxia Divine Domain and the Flame God Domain, the Fang Family and the Ten Thousand Sword Sect will soon be squeezed out.”

”If Mr. Zhong is interested, you could also control a Divine Domain,” Jing Yan suggested.

”Me? I’d better not. I’m quite comfortable in the buffer zone. Though resources are a bit scarce, no one competes with me,” Mr. Zhong shook his head.

Jing Yan also smiled.

”Clan Leader Chu, now that the gathering place of the Quicksand Divine Domain in the Chaotic Land is controlled by the Chu family, nothing major should go wrong. You should take people back to the Quicksand Divine Domain as soon as possible and seize the Netherworld Sect’s headquarters. The Netherworld Sect has controlled the Quicksand Divine Domain for over ten thousand years, so they must have accumulated a lot of wealth,” Jing Yan said, looking at Chu Hongnan.

”As for the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Fang Family headquarters, forget it for now. The Chu family is still relatively weak. If you try to take too much, you’ll bite off more than you can chew. Controlling the Quicksand Divine Domain is already enough for the Chu family’s development,” Jing Yan continued.

”I understand,” Chu Hongnan nodded.

He also coveted the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Fang Family. After all, who wouldn’t want to seize such fatty resources from two first-grade forces? But he understood that with the Chu family’s current abilities, taking over the Netherworld Sect using Jing Yan’s reputation was possible. But to take down the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Fang Family would be difficult unless Jing Yan intervened.

But from Jing Yan’s tone, it seemed unlikely he would help the Chu family seize the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

Besides, Jing Yan was right.

Just seizing the Netherworld Sect would be enough for the Chu family’s rapid development for a thousand years. Now, having completely controlled the gathering place in the Quicksand Divine Domain and found a new Divine Crystal vein—these resources were something the Chu family could only dream of before.

”I will arrange for a return to the Quicksand Divine Domain right away. Jing Yan, I request you to also go to the Quicksand Divine Domain,” said Chu Hongnan.

Taking over the Netherworld Sect still required Jing Yan’s intimidation. In the shadows, there were countless pairs of eyes coveting the Netherworld Sect. Chu Hongnan was worried that the Chu family’s strength alone might not suppress the greed of those people.

After all, the Quicksand Divine Domain also had more than ten Second Grade Forces, three of which had two Saint Realm Third Stage experts.

”Buzz!”

Just as Chu Hongnan finished speaking, a vast wave of Law fluctuations traveled from afar.

This wave of Law fluctuations was extremely peculiar.

When the Law fluctuations reached here, they did not feel very strong.

But with Jing Yan’s sensitivity to Laws, he felt that this wave of Law fluctuations carried a sovereign aura.

To give an analogy, the endless Laws present between heaven and earth can be sensed and studied by Saint Realm martial artists. But compared to the Laws Jing Yan sensed at this moment, it was like the difference between a common soldier and an emperor—a completely different feeling.

All the Saint Realm martial artists present, including those at the Saint Realm First Stage, also sensed the Law fluctuations. However, those with lower strength couldn’t grasp the difference in the Laws as Jing Yan did.

Everyone’s gaze turned in the direction from which the Law fluctuations came.

”What’s going on?” Jing Yan’s thoughts raced.

Previously, in his fight with Yin Shui, the Law Power manipulated by Yin Shui, though abundant and mighty, was still just ordinary Law Power. But now, this Law Power...

Jing Yan couldn’t imagine that such Law Power could be manipulated by any individual. If it really was controlled by someone, that person’s strength would be unimaginably terrifying.

”It has appeared?” Mr. Zhong’s eyes flashed with a scorching light, and he murmured to himself.

Jing Yan looked towards Mr. Zhong.

”It should be that thing... it has appeared,” Mr. Zhong’s expression showed a hint of fervor, ”Jing Yan, a treasure has appeared. We must go immediately, or others might snatch it first.”

”Treasure? What treasure?” Jing Yan asked curiously.

”A treasure even coveted by the Main God of the God Realm... the Ancestor of Laws!” Mr. Zhong used divine thought to inform Jing Yan.

At these words, Jing Yan’s eyes shone brightly.

In this world, he had never heard anyone mention the Ancestor of Laws, but in the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill’s inherited information, there was a reference to the Ancestor of Laws.

The Ancestor of Laws, a peerless treasure.

As Mr. Zhong said, even the mighty Main Gods of the God Realm deeply coveted the Ancestor of Laws.

According to the records, if a Saint Realm martial artist could refine an Ancestor of Laws, they could immediately ascend to become a Void God, rising to the top in one step!
