Nine Realms Sword Emperor
Chapter 1824 - 1827: Comprehending the Sacred Dragon Stele Once Again
Chu Fengmian originally planned to first consolidate the Sword Dao Sect and then leave for the Cang Hai Star Domain.
But upon returning to the Nine Domains this time, he encountered martial artists from the Jiu Hua Heaven attacking the Sword Dao Sect. The sense of relaxation he had felt was replaced by a sense of crisis.
The Nine Domains had always been hidden within the Ninefold Heavenly Fire, thus outsiders were completely unaware of its existence. For tens of thousands of years, the Nine Domains had remained safe and sound.
But now, the power of the Ninefold Heavenly Fire has dissipated, allowing powerful figures from various major star domains to enter the Nine Domains.
After all, the Nine Domains was once a Holy Land. Even though it has declined, the numerous treasures contained within it still attract many martial artists to come.
At first, only a few surrounding star domains, like the Da Luo Tian Star Domain and martial artists from the Yan Luo Star Domain and Tai Qing Star Domain, came to the Nine Domains.
But now, even martial artists from Jiu Hua Heaven in the Holy Domain have arrived in the Nine Domains.
Moreover, from the conversation among those five people, Chu Fengmian could tell that Jiu Hua Heaven had set its sights on the Nine Domains.
Although constrained by the Heavenly Nine Domains, they wouldn’t dare to launch a large-scale attack on the Nine Domains for now, but what lies ahead, even Chu Fengmian wasn’t sure.
The current chaos in the Nine Domains is only a prelude; greater chaos will sweep through the Nine Domains in the future.
Chu Fengmian and the Sword Dao Sect must have enough strength to successfully get through this chaos.
This made Chu Fengmian even more eager to enhance his strength.
"If it really doesn’t work, we can abandon the Nine Domains and go to the Da Luo Tian Star Domain."
Chu Fengmian thought for a moment and spoke again.
Now, although the strength of the Sword Dao Sect isn’t as weak as before, Chu Fengmian can’t guarantee that no other forces will target the Sword Dao Sect.
The young people coming from Jiu Hua Heaven were all almost half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts.
If martial artists from Jing Mo Tian or Li Hen Tian come and target the Sword Dao Sect, it would stand no chance with its current strength.
Chu Fengmian, born in the Nine Domains, would not leave unless absolutely necessary. But if it really came to a critical moment, Chu Fengmian wouldn’t hesitate.
Upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Han Yueli nodded.
She understood too; the Nine Domains is no longer as peaceful as it was before.
"Heart Demon King, stay in the Sword Dao Sect. If you encounter danger beyond control, lead the sect away to the Dragon Sanctuary."
Chu Fengmian spoke to the Heart Demon King sitting beside him.
The Heart Demon King had broken through to a half-step Heavenly Human Realm and gained consciousness, becoming an independent existence, unlike before when it was dependent on Chu Fengmian.
However, Chu Fengmian and the Heart Demon King were still closely connected. Should the Sword Dao Sect encounter danger, Chu Fengmian could know immediately through the Heart Demon King.
"Yes, master."
The voice of the Heart Demon King resonated in Chu Fengmian’s mind, then it plunged into the depths of the Yunyu Heavenly Palace to begin a closed-door cultivation.
"Time to go."
Chu Fengmian glanced at Han Yueli and Luo Xi, and with a flicker of his figure, flew out of the Sword Origin Realm. In a flash, Chu Fengmian’s figure reached the Sword Dao City, took up the Sea Princess, transformed into a tunneling light, and left the Nine Domains.
This trip to Cang Hai Star Domain, Chu Fengmian was determined to obtain the Glazed Pure Water.
With enough Glazed Pure Water, Chu Fengmian could cleanse the Demon Intent left on the Tai Chu Sword Edge, remold the Tai Chu Sword, and with such an Extreme Immortal Soldier in hand, even when facing a true Heavenly Human Realm, he would have the power to fight.
However, Chu Fengmian didn’t directly go to the Cang Hai Star Domain, but with a flash, took the Sea Princess back to the Dragon Sanctuary.
Outside the Dragon Sanctuary, the Heavenly Star River was still guarding.
Originally, Chu Fengmian subdued the Heavenly Star River intending to take him to the Sword Origin Realm to guard the Sword Dao Sect.
But after the recent battle, Chu Fengmian also realized the Nine Domains is a place riddled with disputes ready for a drastic change at any moment, and he must leave a path of retreat for the Sword Dao Sect.
The Dragon Sanctuary would be the retreat route for the Sword Dao Sect. If things went awry, the Heart Demon King along with Han Yueli, Luo Xi, and others would lead the disciples of the Sword Dao Sect to retreat from the Nine Domains and come to the Dragon Sanctuary, securing a way out.
The Heavenly Star River was also left by Chu Fengmian to guard the Dragon Sanctuary.
After arranging everything, Chu Fengmian advanced to the depths of the Dragon Sanctuary, reaching the Enlightenment Hall.
This was the third time he had come to the Enlightenment Hall, and his purpose was the Ancestor Statue within.
From the Ancestor Statue, Chu Fengmian comprehended the first two forms of the Ancestor’s Nine Styles.
The last time Chu Fengmian entered the Enlightenment Hall, he was only at the Immortal Realm, and his power was barely enough to contend with an Ancient Emperor, so he only comprehended the first two forms.
Actually, during one of his prior comprehensions, Chu Fengmian had vaguely begun to grasp the third form of the Ancestor’s Styles.
But at that time, his strength was too weak, and if he attempted the third form of the Ancestor’s Styles, he would perish from the overwhelming strength, so he ceased to comprehend further. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
This time, Chu Fengmian’s power had multiplied by leaps and bounds compared to his last visit, allowing him to continue comprehending the Ancestor’s Nine Styles.
Entering the Enlightenment Hall originally required a large number of Contribution Points for eligibility.
But now, having subdued the entire Dragon Sanctuary, Chu Fengmian could go wherever he wished without obstruction.
With a step, Chu Fengmian reached the depths of the Enlightenment Hall, where he saw a stele engraved with the two characters, "Sacred Dragon."
This stele is rumored to be personally inscribed by the founder of the Dragon Sanctuary, containing supreme secrets.
Yet, throughout the Dragon Sanctuary’s millennial inheritance, no one has ever truly comprehended the secrets within the stele.
Last time, when Chu Fengmian attempted comprehension, he saw a vision of countless dragons roaring in the country of ten thousand dragons.
Originally, Chu Fengmian was going straight for the Ancestor Statue to comprehend it, but upon seeing the stele, he suddenly wanted to first unravel the secrets within it.
The vision inscribed in the stele wasn’t deliberately left by someone; now Chu Fengmian, having mastered a portion of the Tai Chu energy belonging to the Sky Dragon Claw, and having comprehended the Dragon Origin, understanding the contents of this stele shouldn’t be an issue.
Chu Fengmian activated the power within his bloodline and fixated his gaze on the "Sacred Dragon" characters on the stele.
Roar!
The roars of countless dragons echoed in Chu Fengmian’s mind.
The roaring sounds struck at Chu Fengmian’s consciousness. The last time, when facing these roars, Chu Fengmian could only struggle to withstand them.
