Supreme Sword God

Chapter 841 - 840: Major Progress, World-Suppressing Celestial Stele

Ye Chen had originally planned to make a trip to the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom to give Hua Qianxue’s parents an explanation and tell them everything was fine.

But after learning about some recent developments, he could save that time.

Because—

Grandmaster Mu Yi and Lin Wen’s deduction had made a breakthrough; a fixed sound transmission channel between the Outer Heaven and the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom had already been set up.

Aside from the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom—

The Cangzhou True Martial Hall also had a sound transmission channel, currently only used to communicate with Shi Fengchun.

Ye Chen stood beside the Array that formed the sound transmission channel.

Lin Wen successfully activated the Array and said, "It’s done."

Before Ye Chen could speak, a voice already came out from the Array.

Finding it a bit novel, Ye Chen chatted with Miss Hei for a while, then with his third uncle for a while, and finally explained the matter of the Flower God Sect clearly to Miss Hua’s parents.

If not for this sound transmission Array—

He’d still have to use the Heaven Gate to go to the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom. A round trip would be a serious waste of time and also... a waste of the Heaven Gate.

The Void Stone used to forge Heaven Gates could only be supplied right now by that baby Void Beast pooping twice a month; he had to save whenever he could.

"Brother Wen, your research with Grandmaster Mu Yi has laid an important foundation for the development of the Asura Army!" Ye Chen patted Lin Wen on the shoulder.

Lin Wen: "..."

Why did he feel like a junior being praised and acknowledged by an elder!

Forget it.

He wouldn’t fuss over it.

This was the Outer Heaven; Asura was the leader. Here, he wasn’t the Vice Hall Master of the Bright Hall, and Asura also wasn’t Ye Chen of the Bright Hall!

"Grandmaster Mu Yi and I actually have another idea. As things stand, the sound transmission channels are fixed, which is very inconvenient. We’re planning to push it a big step further and switch to a portable sound transmission method.

Besides that, we also need to set up some protective measures for the transmission to avoid being eavesdropped on by others."

Ye Chen: "Go all out and do it!"

"We’re short on Void Stone!"

Ye Chen: "...Then put it off for a bit, slow down first. After we take this Outer Heaven, that Void Stone Ore Vein can be mined again. Add in the Void Beast’s fixed output, it should be enough."

Lin Wen: "Fine, I’ll go back and tell Grandmaster Mu Yi. You’d better not go see Grandmaster Mu Yi right now. Because Void Stone is lacking, he’s been in a fiery mood lately and finds everyone an eyesore."

Ye Chen: "...Okay!"

Ever since he helped Grandmaster Mu Yi find a life goal, Grandmaster Mu Yi had been unstoppable on the road of pursuing his ideals.

"One more thing, hurry up and get Tian Bugui out of here. That guy keeps running over to me to raise some bullshit suggestions. My ears are about to explode from the noise."

Ye Chen: "Alright, I’ll find a few people to spar with Old Tian whenever they’re free!"

After Lin Wen left, Ye Chen activated the sound transmission Array’s link to the Cangzhou True Martial Hall.

"Who is it?"

"Brother Chun, it’s me."

"You brat, you don’t even want to come back to the True Martial Hall anymore?"

"There’s a lot going on, so I’m not running around everywhere. Oh right, Elder Zhong and the others have returned, right?"

"They’re already back."

"Brother Chun, any progress on that Stone Monument Brand of the three great foreign races?"

"None so far. The Celestial Eye Emperor is extremely cautious and has been guarding right beside the Stone Monument Brand lately."

"Then you don’t need to worry about this anymore. I’ll think of a way. Once I’ve handled it, I’ll notify you to come in, and we’ll finish off the three great foreign races together."

"Mm." Shi Fengchun fell silent for a moment, then said, "I heard that when you went to the Flower God Sect this time, you killed a Great Emperor?"

Ye Chen: "...Who said that? Stop spreading it. I want to keep a low profile. Killing a Great Emperor, that’s all, nothing worth showing off about."

In the True Martial Hall, beside the sound transmission Array, Shi Fengchun’s face stiffened.

"Feng Kuang told me. He said you asked him to tell me!"

Ye Chen: "Did I? I forgot. Too many things going on, I can’t remember such small matters. Brother Chun, contact you if there’s anything else, I’ll go get busy first."

With that, he cut off the connection.

"Did I ask Feng Kuang to help me show off to Brother Chun? I think I did mention it in passing..." Ye Chen muttered, then immediately returned to his residence. With a thought, he entered the Sword Tomb.

"Elder Qingyi, you finally came down."

Seeing Luo Qingyi, Ye Chen greeted her with a smile.

Luo Qingyi: "I heard from Tian Can that you’ve already fought a Great Emperor?"

Ye Chen: "A Great Emperor really is very strong."

Luo Qingyi said coldly, "Are you about to say, ’but when you hack at them, the feel is just so-so’?"

"The one who knows me is none other than you, Miss Qing!"

Luo Qingyi was so angry she wanted to hit someone.

Seeing things take a bad turn, Ye Chen immediately said, "Elder Qingyi, let me show you a treasure."

Luo Qingyi grew interested and said, "What have you tinkered with this time?"

Ye Chen grinned and took out that palm-sized strip of stone from his Storage Ring.

Luo Qingyi’s expression froze, and in that brief instant, countless expressions flashed across her face.

There was confusion, shock, astonishment...

"Thump thump thump!"

Master Legs, who had just run over, lost control of his two legs, tripped over himself, and crashed down beside Ye Chen with a bang.

Little Phoenix Zizi flapped its little wings and said, "Big Brother, what’s this?"

"Picked it up. I don’t know what it is either, but it feels like something good."

Ye Chen answered casually and said, "Elder Qingyi, Master Legs, do you recognize this thing?"

With reactions that big, they clearly knew something.

Luo Qingyi’s tone was very unnatural as she said, "The World-Suppressing Celestial Stele!"

Master Legs’ two legs stood back up, leg hair trembling as he said, "I’ve only seen it mentioned in some ancient records. It’s said that the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele can fix heaven and earth, suppress reincarnation, and transcend the ten thousand Daos!"

Ye Chen smacked his tongue.

He’d picked up something that terrifying?

Master Legs: "If you could really pick up the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele while walking down the road, then stop doing anything else in the future and just go pick things up on the road every day. Who knows, maybe picking things up will net you a peerless powerhouse sometime!"

"Where exactly did it come from!" Luo Qingyi’s expression was grave and her tone solemn.

Ye Chen: "The Mad Old Man was playing with it in his hand, then he went off to do something and threw it aside. I figured I’d help him keep it safe, so I picked it up and brought it back."

"If it came from that one’s hand, then it’s not surprising," Master Legs muttered.

Ye Chen immediately said, "Since the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele is so powerful, how do I use it?"

"You can’t use it." As Luo Qingyi spoke, she reached out to grab, and the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele flew into her hand.

Next, a special power surged in Luo Qingyi’s palm. The palm-sized stone rapidly grew larger, reaching several hundred zhang in height, radiating a vast and terrifying aura capable of suppressing all things.

On the surface of the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele, those mysterious lines also became clearer, densely packed and impossible to count.

"The World-Suppressing Celestial Stele must be manifested into its initial form using the Power of the Great Dao. If you want to use the Stele’s power, you have to comprehend the mysteries of the stele’s inscriptions."

Luo Qingyi stared at the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele in front of her and explained in detail to Ye Chen, "And there is no fixed method for comprehending the inscriptions. In fact, even for the exact same inscription, what different people comprehend from it can be completely different.

Just now you could lift it, but now you can’t even touch it.

I can manifest the Stele’s initial form, but before I comprehend the inscriptions, I also cannot touch the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele again!"

Ye Chen stepped forward and tried to touch it with his hand, but there was a layer of power on the surface of the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele that completely blocked his palm.

"Elder Qingyi, so you’re saying that with this thing sitting here, how to comprehend it all depends on the individual?"

"That’s right."

"Alright, then let’s get started. Maybe once you comprehend this thing, Elder Qingyi, you can break free from the shackles and restraints of the Great Dao, Master Legs can reforge his physical body after comprehending it, and if Little Phoenix also comprehends it, it might instantly become a Great Phoenix."

Ye Chen had no intention of hogging it for himself.

This thing wasn’t a consumable; everyone on his side could come try!

Of course, that was limited to within the Sword Tomb.

Unless he could truly fully control the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele, only then would he let others outside try as well.
