Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Chapter 691: Chapter 690, Obtaining the Sword of Termination_1

Jiang Chen appeared thoughtful. His guess was correct: the Tree of Termination was indeed Origin Energy. Only by mastering all the Rules of Termination could one refine the Origin Energy and completely become the Master of Termination.

Following Qiaosu Huina, they flew forward, soon arriving at her stronghold. Many Incubus were around, most not even Demigods; these were all members of the Incubus Clan. In the center of the Incubus Clan stood a large, withered tree. Qiaosu Huina lived inside a hollow within this tree, which opened into another world.

Qiaosu Huina said, "This is where I live, and the Origin Energy Orb is placed in the innermost part. The Origin Energy Orb plays a crucial role; it’s the energy source of a world.

"This great tree is the Dream Tree, and the entire world is controlled by it.

"Without the Origin Energy Orb, the great tree will wither.

"The whole World of Dreams will also become barren."

"Just like the Tree of Destiny," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Qiaosu Huina nodded. "Yes, every world is connected by a great tree, which sustains the entire world. I need the Origin Energy Orb to restore life to the World of Dreams."

Jiang Chen was unmoved; this had nothing to do with him. What World of Dreams? It’s not like I live here anyway, he thought.

Jiang Chen asked, "If one wants to control an entire world, one needs the Origin Energy Orb, correct? And to refine the entire Dream Tree, is that also required?"

Qiaosu Huina nodded. "You are correct."

"Then why don’t you refine the Origin Energy Orb?" Jiang Chen then asked.

"I already did," Qiaosu Huina replied, "but it was stolen."

"Stolen? Even after you refined it?" Jiang Chen was puzzled. Once refined, isn’t it yours? How could it be stolen?

Qiaosu Huina shook her head. "I don’t know what method the thief used to steal the Origin Energy Orb so silently. By the time I sensed something was wrong, the Origin Energy Orb had already vanished.

"I don’t even know who stole it.

"Only the Power of Destiny or the Power of Termination could achieve such a silent theft."

Jiang Chen thought for a moment. It must have been Pascal. He gained the Power of Destiny, which allowed him to steal the Origin Energy Orb from the World of Dreams. The Orb must have then been given to Daphne, allowing her to become a Lord. Pascal is very likely connected to the Creator God, or perhaps he’s even the Creator God’s son.

Jiang Chen said, "Take me to your treasure vault. Let’s see what treasures you have."

"Alright," Qiaosu Huina agreed.

Following Qiaosu Huina, he entered the treasure vault. The vault contained many Laws: the Law of Fire, the Law of Water, the Law of Destruction, the Law of Darkness, the Law of Devouring, and others. However, none of these were of any use to Jiang Chen; even the Law of Destruction was useless to him.

Apart from the Laws, there were also many Divine Artifacts, all equipment used by Divine beings. Jiang Chen wasn’t interested in these either. After reaching the Divine realm, Divine Artifacts rarely contributed significantly to combat power. Only Heroes newly promoted to the Divine realm truly needed Divine Artifacts.

Jiang Chen said, "There is nothing I need here. Besides Laws and Divine Artifacts, are there no other items?"

Qiaosu Huina shook her head. "No, that’s all."

"In that case, I’m very sorry, but I can’t help you with anything." Jiang Chen turned to leave, preparing to exit the World of Dreams and return to the real world.

"Wait!" Qiaosu Huina called out, seeing Jiang Chen about to depart.

"Is there something else?" Jiang Chen asked.

"There is one item you might be interested in," Qiaosu Huina said.

"What is it?"

"It’s also a Divine Artifact."

"Didn’t I just say? Those Divine Artifacts are completely useless to me."

Qiaosu Huina shook her head. "No, this Divine Artifact is very special. It’s not an ordinary one; common Divine Artifacts aren’t worthy of comparison."

"Let me see," Jiang Chen said.

Qiaosu Huina entered the deepest part of the vault and returned with a box. She opened it, revealing a longsword that emanated a cold light.

Huh... This Divine Artifact is indeed different, not ordinary, Jiang Chen thought. He stepped forward, picked up the Divine Artifact, and felt the Strength within. As soon as he held it, the Power of Termination within him stirred, forming a strong connection with the Divine Artifact.

This is... The Sword of Termination! The Divine Artifact once used by the Master of Termination! No wonder the Rule of Termination within me is stirring, resonating with it, he realized.

Qiaosu Huina said, "No one can wield this Divine Artifact."

Jiang Chen stated, "This Divine Artifact is very useful to me. I promise you, I will do my utmost to help you recover the Origin Energy Orb and return it to you."

Qiaosu Huina’s voice was cold. "It’s not about doing your utmost; you *must* recover it."

Jiang Chen’s gaze turned cold as he looked at her. "Since I’ve given my word, I won’t go back on it. I can only do my best. You don’t need to threaten me. Now that I have this Divine Artifact, killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant. You have no grounds to refuse."

Qiaosu Huina was taken aback. She sensed that Jiang Chen was completely different now. After obtaining the Divine Artifact, his combat strength had increased at least tenfold.

Is he really this formidable? What exactly is this Divine Artifact? she wondered.

Jiang Chen said, "I might as well tell you. This is called The Sword of Termination, a Divine Artifact forged by the former Master of Termination. I possess the Rule of Termination, so this Divine Artifact is quite suited for me."

Now that he possessed the Divine Artifact, Qiaosu Huina was speechless; she stood even less of a chance against him. I regret this. If I had known, I never would have shown it to him, she thought bitterly.

Qiaosu Huina said, "I will have Loreida accompany you."

Jiang Chen nodded. Loreida, the Incubus. That’s good. If I’m outmatched, Loreida can bring me back to the World of Dreams to escape. It’s a safe haven here, he thought.

The two of them walked out of the treasure vault, and Loreida led Jiang Chen away. They chatted as they walked.

Loreida said, "Jiang Chen, the Origin Energy Orb is very important to our World of Dreams. If we lose it, the entire World of Dreams will collapse. Currently, our Lord is using her own Origin Energy to sustain it."

"But that will run out eventually. Only the Origin Energy Orb can truly sustain it."

Jiang Chen thought, Recovering the Origin Energy Orb won’t be that simple. Especially since Daphne is with Pascal, and that man can summon the Creator God. This is like snatching food from a tiger’s mouth!

Jiang Chen asked, "Have you never been outside before?"

Loreida shook her head. "No."

"Actually, the outside world is quite fascinating," Jiang Chen remarked.

"No matter how fascinating it is, I’m not interested. I need to recover the Origin Energy Orb," Loreida stated firmly.

They flew to the edge of the World of Dreams. With a wave of her hand, Loreida opened a passage. The two of them stepped through, exiting the World of Dreams and appearing in a random location.

Loreida asked, "Where do we go next?"

"The Continent of All-Gods," Jiang Chen replied.

"The Continent of All-Gods? Why there?" Loreida inquired.

"To find Yuan Ziyi. I need to verify some things."

Loreida looked puzzled. "Who is Yuan Ziyi?"

"She is the Master of Destiny."

Loreida was stunned. What? The Master of Destiny!

The two of them flew toward the Continent of All-Gods...
