Chapter 2326: The Last Fragment

The short old man shook his head and said bitterly, “He’s the Heaven-splitting Ancestor. He stands at the same cultivation level as old master. Even if all the power within the Neptunean Divine Palace is unleashed, it will not be enough to stop the Heaven-splitting Ancestor.”

“Moreover, you know about what happened earlier as well. When the Neptunean Divine Palace moved through space and avoided the peak experts, we were still extremely distant from the Nine Clouds Plane where the Heaven-splitting clan resides. In the end, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor did not even leave the Nine Clouds Plane, yet he managed to transport the Neptunean Divine Palace from so far away. The Neptunean Divine Palace is no different from a plaything in the hands of someone like that.”

“Do we really have to give the Pyrnite Ore to him? Although what he’s giving in exchange is very precious, the Pyrnite Ore came from my ancestors after all,” Xiao Man was reluctant.

The short old man sighed gently and said, “Actually, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor has already treated us better than those annoying people who chased us before. After all, if he really wants to take the Pyrnite Ore, we can’t stop him with his strength. Not only did he avoid doing that, but he even offered a great deal to exchange for it.”

“Of course, the little master has already inherited the Neptunean Divine Palace and obtained everything that old master left behind. Perhaps the little master is not interested in the items that the Heaven-splitting Ancestor is offering, but his protection holds a completely different significance.”

“Promised protection from an expert like the Heaven-splitting Ancestor cannot be purchased no matter how many cultivation resources are offered. That’s where the true value lies. Once little master obtains the protection of the Heaven-splitting Ancestor, there will be no need to worry about other people causing disturbances in the future.”

Xiao Man thought about it silently. Although she had obtained the Neptunean Divine Palace and become its new master, the last few years had not been easy for her because she was just too weak. Many experts cast their greedy eyes on her. They would find her and act tough but talk soft so that they could control her.

As long as they controlled her, it would mean controlling the Neptunean Divine Palace.

Some experts began to take forceful measures when they realised that words would not achieve their desired results.

Hence, it had not been peaceful for her recently. She was basically disturbed at all times.

It was just like what the Heaven-splitting Ancestor had said. Although the Neptunean Divine Palace was a high quality god artifact, it was not invincible. Once all of its energy was depleted and the formations became useless, its defences would be drastically weakened.

Before the Neptunean Divine Palace took a master, none of the countless experts in the Saints’ World dared to covet it due to something the Bloodtear Grand Exalt had said. However, now that the Neptunean Divine Palace had a master, an opportunity where the peak experts could obtain the Neptunean Divine Palace without infringing on the Bloodtear Grand Exalt’s will had appeared.

This was because the Bloodtear Grand Exalt only forbid people from fighting over the Neptunean Divine Palace. He never said they could not rope in the master.

As a result, in the eyes of many peak experts, as long as they ‘roped in’ Xiao Man, they would be able to obtain the Neptunean Divine Palace.

This roping in was naturally referring to controlling.

“Xiao Man, we’re here today because of Jian Chen’s assistance. However, countless experts have trapped Jian Chen on the Desolate Plane for the sake of the Anatta Tower. We have to find a way to help him,” at this moment, Zi Yun spoke up from beside Xiao Man. She struggled to be at peace whenever she thought of the situation that Jian Chen currently faced.

Xiao Man’s eyes immediately lit up. She said firmly, “Sister Zi Yun is right. If it weren’t for brother Jian Chen’s help, let alone taking back my ancestor’s belongings, I probably would have died in the Neptunean Divine Palace long ago. Now that brother Jian Chen is in trouble, I have to find a way to help him.”

“I’ve made up my mind. I can give all the Pyrnite Ore on the eighth floor to senior Heaven-splitting Ancestor, but the senior must protect brother Jian Chen.”

At the same time, the man who had appeared in the Neptunean Divine Palace hovered where the Heaven-splitting Ancestor cultivated. He held a black, thumb-sized bead.

This man of ordinary appearance happened to be the Heaven-splitting Ancestor who was renowned in the Saints’ World.

The Heaven-splitting Ancestor looked at the black bead in his hand, and undisguised desire and excitement filled his eyes.

It was truly very difficult to believe that items that interested him so much would exist with his almost perfect cultivation.

“I never thought that such a shocking secret would be hidden within a bead formed from a fragment of the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths’ soul. This terrifying thing that doesn’t belong to this aeon has such frightening power. Once it’s forged, even Grand Exalts will fear it.”

“The Pyrnite Ore in the Neptunean Divine Palace had actually been placed there to nurture by the experts of the Daoist Sect of Neptunea under the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths’ suggestion. Since I’ve learnt that this Pyrnite Ore is crucial to forging that item from the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths’ blurry memories, I have to obtain the Pyrnite Ore.”

“Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths, since you weren’t able to forge that item, and I happened upon a bead that’s formed from a fragment of your soul and learnt the secret about the item, let me complete what you did not…” the Heaven-splitting Ancestor murmured. He rubbed the bead fondly as he treated it like a treasure.

At this moment, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor’s face changed. He said, “The new master of the Neptunean Divine Palace has agreed to exchange the Pyrnite Ore with me. Fantastic. Protecting a kid called Jian Chen is a small master. Tu San!”

“I await your orders, ancestor!” An old man stood politely outside the secret room. He was the Heaven-splitting Ancestor’s most loyal servant.

“Go to the Desolate Plane and bring me that person called Jian Chen,” ordered the Heaven-splitting Ancestor.

“Does the ancestor desire the Anatta Tower?” The servant was surprised.

“The Anatta Tower?” The Heaven-splitting Ancestor showed some disdain and said, “If it were in perfect condition, I would be rather interested, but it’s damaged now, and there are seals from the Nirvanic Immortal Exalt. Repairing it will cost too much. It’s not worth it to go up against Yi Xin for a damaged Anatta Tower.”

“You only need to bring me Jian Chen. You can leave the Anatta Tower to the brats on the Desolate Plane to fight over for.”

“Yes, this one understands!”

On the Godnigma Plane of the seven sacred planes, the armor-wearing Tie Ta walked out of a secret room. He shone with dazzling, golden light within the majestic War God Hall. The presence he radiated with was so powerful that it had reached the Primordial realm.

Tie Ta had already become an Infinite Prime.

“Congratulations on the War God’s emergence!” Three old people appeared silently and bowed towards Tie Ta.

These three old people were the three great elders of the God clan. Their authority was so great that they basically only stood second to the War God in the God clan.

“Is there news of Jian Chen?” Tie Ta glanced past the three great elders and asked in a dignified sense like he was someone of importance.
