C.3517: A World Inside

As elder Nong’s seals flew in, the heavy bronze door shone with a weak layer of light. It grew stronger slowly as if a tremendous power slumbering in the bronze door was gradually being awakened.

Gazing at the bronze door, Jian Chen gradually became stern as well. As the power slumbering inside the door awakened, he gained an even deeper impression of the door’s strength.

The door definitely did not stand there simply for defence. He could clearly sense a sharp killing intent from it.

The bronze door was actually a high quality god artifact capable of both offence and defence. Not only were its defences powerful, but it also possessed the great power to heavily injure Immortal Exalts.

Without the corresponding secret technique and the correct method for opening it, even some Immortal Exalts would not be able to force their way in.

“In terms of quality alone, this bronze door can almost rival the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. This shouldn’t have been forged by the Star Clustered Ancestor. With his strength, he’s not capable of forging such a powerful high quality god artifact. This high quality god artifact was probably one of the treasures that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens possessed during their peak,” Jian Chen thought. He saw ancient traces left behind by the passage of time on the bronze door, as well as the marks of weapons left from who knew how many years ago. It gave off the heavy sense of age.

The bronze door was forged hundreds of millions of years ago at the very least.

“The bronze door itself is a space, an independent miniature world.” Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly with a hint of eagerness as well as some worry.

He was obviously eager to see what the Star Clustered Ancestor had left behind for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and how the sect would make itself stronger through the items left behind by him.

However, he was also worried about the tremendous organisations that secretly went after the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

The four organisations that resided around the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and even the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder could only be regarded as pawns on the surface. They could be sacrificed at any time.

The true ringleader, the people targeting the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, were all hidden away.

The Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor’s gaze was also fixed on the bronze door. Even though he seemed composed on the surface without any ulterior thoughts, there was fervency and greed in the very depths of his eyes that he disguised extremely well.

“This bronze door definitely is no regular high quality god artifact. Its grade is so high that very few god artifacts in the world can match it. Just the door alone is worth more than my entire clan,” thought the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor. As an Immortal Emperor who only possessed two medium quality god artifacts, he was unable to resist this temptation now that such a high quality god artifact had suddenly appeared before him.

“However, this bronze door is the same as the Energy-gathering Divine Mountain in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They’ve all been refined into the space here. They can’t be taken away. What a pity.” the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor was disappointed.

At this moment, the glow from the bronze door had already become extremely bright as if its slumbering power had been completely awakened. Shortly afterwards, a shining gate appeared on the bronze door.

Elder Nong had already stopped forming seals with his hands. He stared at the shining door and studied it closely as if he was confirming the details carefully. In the end, he could not help but smile excitedly. “It can’t be wrong. It’s identical to the Star Clustered Ancestor’s descriptions. The secret space left behind by the Star Clustered Ancestor has already been successfully opened.”

When he heard that, the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor exhaled deeply and said, “Since the space is already open, you should head in. I won’t be participating in what happens next. Hopefully, you have a bountiful harvest.”

With that, the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor appeared in the distance with a flash before shutting his eyes and sitting down in the air. He began to consume God Tier pills to slowly recover as if he did not care at all.

He behaved like he was truly uninterested in the resources left behind by the Star Clustered Ancestor.

“I’ll leave the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens once you come out. After all, once I leave, the spatial barrier will vanish. By then, the protective formation of your Sword Sect of Violet Heavens won’t be sufficient to stop the four Immortal Emperors in the surroundings. I’m doing this for the sake of Taihang.” With that, the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperors shut his eyes and said nothing more.

Elder Nong secretly let out a sigh of relief after hearing his explanation, but he still did not dare to be careless. He took the Immortal-destroying Thunder from Chen Shuzhi and entered the world within the bronze door cautiously.

Shortly afterwards, Chen Shuzhi stepped in as well.

The core disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens continued to maintain the formation, using its power to stabilise the bronze door. However, the appearance of the bronze door made them think of certain things as well. They were all excited.

Jian Chen had been constantly observing the expressions of these core disciples secretly. None of their expressions or even mental reactions escaped his senses.

After all, from so close, there was not a single Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal that could perfectly disguise themselves before an Immortal Emperor.

“There are indeed some issues with some people. Elder Nong has made a clever choice by locking everyone up in the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens, eliminating the possibility of them divulging any information. Otherwise, unexpected accidents would probably happen from the moment the Star Clustered Ancestor’s secret space opened up,” Jian Chen thought.

But at this moment, Jian Chen’s face suddenly sank. Icy-cold killing intent flashed through his eyes as he looked over to the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor on the side.

The Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor sat in the distance just like before, with his eyes closed and his legs crossed. He seemed immovable. However, Jian Chen knew that this was merely a spatial projection. The real Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor had already entered the bronze door without letting anyone know.

“Sure enough, it’s not that simple.” Jian Chen sneered inside. Afterwards, without any hesitation, he entered the bronze door resolutely.

Jian Chen understood exactly how powerful Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors were. Before experts like that, even elder Nong’s Immortal-destroying Thunder would fail to achieve anything.

With only a simple spatial lock that would not even take too much energy, the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor could immobilise elder Nong, completely incapacitating him.

Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarchs were truly as puny as ants before a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor.

There was an extremely vast space inside the bronze door. Three colossal planets stood quietly right in front of this space.

The first planet shone with blinding light, raging with divine flames and radiating with terrifying heat.

The second planet radiated with chillding coldness as if it could seal the land in ice and freeze space.

The third planet resided between the two stars. It was lush with greenery, filled with life.

The three entities seemed to represent the star, moon, and sun, forming a microcosm before their eyes as they moved according to a special pattern.

Chen Shuzhi and elder Nong glanced past the three celestial entities as they hovered in the air. They locked onto the centre planet that teemed with life very soon.

The planet radiated with an invisible ripple of energy, which immediately drew their attention.

Jian Chen appeared there too. His gaze was also fixed on the central planet. The coldness in his eyes leapt violently.

That was because he had already sensed that the Righteous Bearing Immortal Emperor had made his way over to the planet first. Neither elder Nong nor Chen Shuzhi had noticed this uninvited guest.
