Chapter 900: King Armament
Jian Chen was filled with a sense of helplessness with what the grand elder of the Turtle clan had said . He knew that he would not listen to him no matter how he put it; the inflexible grand elder had already made up his mind about the Ruler’s Qi on him .
“Do I explain my true identity to him at all? That’s probably the only way to get him to believe that I’m not some ruler of his clan,” Jian Chen thought . He had already begun to hesitate whether to disclose his identity or not .
The grand elder sighed and spoke, “To think that we were once one of the greatest tribes in the sea realm . We were so powerful that even with the entire sea realm in perspective, we were at least ranked in the top ten . At our peak, we had a total of four rulers and every single one of them were hall elders at the peak of the 16th Star . At that time, no one dared to provoke us other than the three halls . ”
“It’s a pity that so much time has passed and our strength has waned with each coming generation . The number of rulers constantly decreased and our overall strength plummeted . We’ve fallen from our initial status as one of the greatest tribes to this current disappointing state . It has been thirty thousand years since the last person with the Ruler’s Qi had appeared . If the situation continues like this, we’ll probably become weaker and weaker, before being devoured by the other stronger tribes . ” A sliver of pain appeared on the grand elder’s face . As one of the older members of the clan, he did not wish to see something like that happen at all .
“Ruler, you’re the hope of our clan . Only under you can the Turtle clan return to its former glory . I hope the ruler can return to our clan . I will do everything I can to help the ruler take power . ” The grand elder pleaded Jian Chen . He was filled with hope .
“Grand elder, you should stop there . I’m not a member of your Turtle clan . I can’t return with you,” Jian Chen rejected the grand elder’s pleas without any hesitation, before leaving with Xie Wang .
“Ruler, if you don’t want to go with me, then I’ll always stick by your side . ” The grand elder was stubborn, immediately following Jian Chen .
Jian Chen was delighted about the grand elder following him around . With a Saint King by his side, he no longer needed to worry about Qing Yixuan looking for him again .
He flew with Xie Wang toward the hall . Meanwhile, the grand elder did not even move an inch away from his side . It had almost been a month since Jian Chen had come to the sea realm . In that time, he had always been tied up by some miscellaneous matters, preventing him from cultivating properly . That was exactly the opposite of his reason for coming to the sea realm .
As a result, he planned to devote himself to cultivation in the upcoming period . He wanted to leave for the Tian Yuan Continent immediately after he had become powerful enough .
The three of them traveled for ten thousand kilometers before a city appeared before them . Jian Chen directly flew over it .
However, just as he reached the center of the city, his gaze suddenly froze . He suddenly looked down before descending abruptly, directly falling into the busy streets .
Before Jian Chen was a castle-like structure . It was extremely extravagant, while many people passed in and out of its main entrance . It was bustling .
“Exotic Treasures!” Jian Chen mumbled as he read the beautiful words on the plaque . He then entered it as his eyes flashed with excitement .
“Esteemed warriors, how may I be of service today?” As soon as he entered the building, a member of staff who was good with people ran over by himself . He smiled as he walked around the three of them, clearly very enthusiastic .
“Take me to the fifth floor,” Jian Chen acted authoritatively, directly tossing a grand quality crystal coin at the member of staff . He behaved extravagantly, attracting the curious gazes of people nearby .
“The warrior’s tastes obviously far exceed that of ordinary people . The fifth floor of our store contains our most expensive items . Normal people don’t even have the right to go there . Only important figures like this warrior can…” The person was ecstatic after receiving a grand quality crystal coin so easily . He immediately began to butter up to Jian Chen with eloquent words .
“Shut up, lead the way,” Jian Chen said rather impatiently .
“Yes, yes, yes . This one will lead the way immediately . Please come this way, warrior . ” The man immediately got to the point when he saw how Jian Chen had become unhappy . He directly led Jian Chen up the stairs .
Jian Chen arrived at the fifth floor under the person’s guidance . The space of the fifth floor was the same as the first but there were much fewer items there . There was barely anything but every item was extremely valuable . Over twenty people in luxurious clothes currently examined the treasures on that floor .
Among the people, a slender, white-clothed woman was the most attention-catching . She possessed an enchanting face, while her skin was white and extremely soft . Her eyes were limpid like autumn water, yet they were also remorselessly cold, revealing a frigidness that deterred people . Standing with those people, she seemed just like a flower among a dung patty . That was how much she stood out, how unignorable she was .
The aristocrats who had come for the treasures would glance at her from the corner of their eyes secretly from time to time . Although they stared at the treasures, their minds were elsewhere .
Beside the woman stood a well-dressed, dashing young man . A dazzling smile hung on his face as he constantly talked to the lady . His gaze toward her was also filled with infatuation, as he struggled to hide the affection in his heart .
Beside the young man stood two middle-aged men who were dressed simply . They were emotionless and cold . They were Sixth Cycle Heaven Saint Masters .
It was forbidden to fight in cities in the sea realm . However, the young man had two Sixth Cycle Heaven Saint Master guards following him around despite being in the city, so his status was evident . He was definitely a young master of a great clan .
“Girl, I’ve introduced myself . May I learn of your name and which family you come from? And where do you cultivate?” The young man beside the lady said with a smile . His voice was soft and he was warm . He seemed extremely friendly .
The man was called Nanyun Lie, the youngest son of the Nanyun clan . His great grandfather was the current patriarch of the clan .
Probably everyone in the radius of several hundreds of thousands of kilometers knew about the Nanyun clan . They were a famed clan within the Sea Goddess Hall’s territory and possessed two 15th Star experts . They held supreme power in the region and were undoubtedly a first-rate organization . They controlled many medium-sized tribes and clans below them, which expanded their power even more .
The woman was cold, ignoring the chattering Nanyun Lie beside her . She stared unblinkingly at the 1 . 2 meter long sword before her with her cold eyes .
The sword was only two fingers wide . Its blade was shiny like a mirror, while it shone with a hazy glow . The presence of a vast and terrifying energy flowed throughout it .
At that moment, the woman’s expression changed . She glanced behind her suddenly, immediately locking onto Jian Chen with her cold eyes . Her eyes narrowed very moment she saw him and she now gritted her teeth .
The woman was Qing Yixuan of the eight great human experts .
Xie Wang’s expression changed instantly when he saw her . He sent a mental message . “God dammit, why is she here . Jian Chen, why did you come here without any reason? We don’t even have the time to hide from her, yet you’ve approached her yourself . Are you throwing yourself at danger?”
Jian Chen ignored Xie Wang . After glancing at Qing Yixuan and Nanyun Lie, he revealed an odd expression . However, he said nothing . He immediately walked toward Qing Yixuan, before stopping before the sword .
Jian Chen’s eyes landed on the sword and they immediately began to light up with burning enthusiasm, as if he had just seen an absolute treasure . He began to slaver over it . He knew that the sword before him was definitely a weapon countless times more powerful than the Dragon Slaying Sword .
Jian Chen touched the hilt of the sword with his trembling hands . The moment he touched it, a sharp sword Qi immediately shot out . It cut through Jian Chen’s Chaotic Body, injuring his palm . Blood immediately began to flow from the wound .
Jian Chen was secretly shocked when he felt the pain in his hand . The power of the sword was beyond his imagination . Never did he think that just a single sword Qi would be so powerful that it even broke through the defense of his Chaotic Body . If it was someone else, they would definitely suffer a much more chilling outcome .
With a thought, the Chaotic Force in his dantian immediately began to pump out strands of Chaotic Force . It boosted the toughness of his body to the absolute maximum, before he grabbed at the hilt of the sword once again .
The moment he touched it, a sharp sword Qi shot out . It left a white mark on his hand but it could not cause any damage to Jian Chen now .
A sliver of surprise immediately flashed across Qing Yixuan’s eyes as she knew exactly how powerful the sword was . She was shocked by the strength of Jian Chen’s body .
“T- this is a weapon left behind by a human expert after they passed away from age . It should be a King Armament, left behind by a human Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint King . ” The grand elder of the Turtle clan marveled . He stared fixedly at the sword as he observed it .
Jian Chen’s heart was filled with unconcealable excitement the moment he heard that . He lifted up the sword to examine it in greater detail, immediately revealing a pleasantly surprised expression . He murmured, “A King Armament . It sure is worthy of being a weapon left behind by a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint King . It’s abnormally powerful . This sword suits me too well . ”
“Leave the King Armament . You’re not worthy of it with your current strength,” Qing Yixuan said to Jian Chen as she looked at him coldly . Her hatred for him gnawed at her heart but with the grand elder of the Turtle clan present, she could do nothing against him .
“Who says I’m not worthy of it? I’m taking this King Armament . Shopkeeper, what’s the price on this weapon?” Jian Chen pooled his attention onto the King Armament . He was extremely excited . His Dragon Slaying Sword was now already slightly damaged and as his strength increased in the future, its effects on boosting his strength would decrease . If he reached the third layer of the Chaotic Body, the sword would no longer be able to withstand his Chaotic Force . The King Armament left behind by a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint King just happened to resolve that pressing problem .
Additionally, King Armaments were much more powerful that Ruler Armaments . Jian Chen believed that he would be able to challenge a Saint King with it, given that the Saint King was not too powerful .
