Chapter 939

Jiang Chen found the initial practicing approach on a pillar . The pillar started to sink when he had found it . This was one of the tests in the Ninefold Palace . If he could not understand the initial approach before the pillar completely sank, he would fail the test . Jiang Chen tried to concentrate . Exerting his talents, he was fully immersed in the initial approach .

No wonder it can’t be written down, Jiang Chen thought to himself .

A written language is used to express ideas . However, when the ideas to be expressed are too vast and too difficult to explain clearly, a written language will be unable to reach its goal . Although many ancient scriptures were written down, those texts were actually not for reading, but for understanding . They were the same as the pattern on this pillar before Jiang Chen . He certainly could read the scriptures collected by the Over Cloud Palace, but even though he read them, he could not understand them or memorize them .

Getting back to the story, it was a pleasant surprise for Jiang Chen when he found it was the initial approach to Xuan Ming Qi, one of the Four Qi . He was extremely excited . Xuan Ming Qi was the most special among the Four Qi . Not many people could practice it . However, whoever practiced it could not be simple .

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Chen’s chest felt full of illumination . The energy in his body turned into Xuan Ming Qi and entered the First Constellation Palace . Thanks to the condensing of Xuan Ming Qi, his state was improving rapidly .

In the end, all of the energy turned into Xuan Ming Qi . Jiang Chen did not leave any energy for the other three kinds of Qi . It was because the light of the First Constellation Palace was what Xuan Ming Qi needed . It was far less than enough .

“It is a bottomless pit that is impossible to fill . ”

Jiang Chen opened his eyes . The pillar had completely sunk . It was not a problem for him, since he had memorized the initial approach . However, it was not complete . It was only a part of the whole scripture, not the same as the complete version . He put Xuan Ming Qi into use soon . He used it to cure his injuries . Together with his self-healing ability, the effect was great . Jiang Chen tried to cut himself on the arm, but before the knife made complete contact with his skin, the cut had healed .

“This isn’t the only use of Xuan Ming Qi . ” A silvery voice suddenly rang out . It was neither the Azure Demon nor the black dragon . Jiang Chen looked around, but he did not see any creature that could speak .

“I’m omnipresent . You don’t have to look around,” the voice came again .

Jiang Chen was not surprised . He had experienced a lot, and he always had a strong feeling that there were living creatures in the Ninefold Palace .

“Are you the one controlling those dead people?” Jiang Chen asked .

“It’s the Ninefold Palace . You have to become the Realm Lord to liberate them . Or you’ll be one of them . ”

“You were already here when I came, weren’t you? Why didn’t you answer me earlier?” Jiang Chen asked again .

“Who knows how far you will go? If you were too weak, it would be a waste of my time to answer your questions . What if you didn’t even survive the first challenge?”

Jiang Chen really did not know how to answer him . He had never met such an arbitrary guy before .

“But now you’re satisfied with my performance?” Jiang Chen asked, smiling .

“You’re all right . The Ninefold Palace is looking for a Realm Lord . The qualifiers must have great wisdom, strong will, and unusual mentality . You’ve passed all of the tests so far . ” The voice sounded sincere . There was no sarcasm in his tone at all . He continued, “In my opinion, you’re almost the Realm Lord . Otherwise I wouldn’t have shown up . ”

“Tell me things I should know . ”

“Okay . ”

Jiang Chen learned that there was only the last test waiting for him . This test was simple . He did not have to do anything .

“This is the Realm Lord Ring . As long as it recognizes you, you’ll become the Realm Lord . You don’t have to do anything to it . Just put it on . If it fits you, then everything will be fine . But if it doesn’t fit you, you will die . ”

Then Jiang Chen saw the Realm Lord Ring . His first impression was that it looked much better than the Divine Fire Ring . It was a medium size . Exquisite and elegant, it did not have any unnecessary decoration .

“If it doesn’t fit me, I’ll die? What do you mean? What’s the standard to judge whether it fits me or not?” Jiang Chen asked .

“The standard is general . It’s difficult to explain it clearly . A Realm Lord is the lord of a realm . We must choose a suitable person . That’s beyond question . If it is an evil person or a person with bad intentions or a stupid and indecisive person, if for any reason the person isn’t a good candidate, he’ll die . ”

“But he doesn’t have to die . Just drive him away from here,” Jiang Chen murmured .

“Then anyone could be the Realm Lord . ” Despite Jiang Chen’s low voice, the living creature of the Ninefold Palace still heard him and answered him .

Jiang Chen hesitated . He did not like the situation . It was not his style to leave everything to fate and luck .

“Let me ask you one more thing . What if I give up?” Jiang Chen asked, since something had occurred to him .

“You will die . ”

Jiang Chen thought that if the living creature speaking to him was right there before him, he would kill the latter with thunder . He had no choice at all, so he reached for the Realm Lord Ring . When his fingertips touched the Realm Lord Ring, the ring jumped onto his finger automatically and adjusted itself to the size of his finger .

“This is…?” Jiang Chen did not see any bad things happening . Everything was calm .

“I told you . With your performance, you will definitely become the Realm Lord . Otherwise I wouldn’t have showed up . ”

“So, I’m already the Realm Lord?” Jiang Chen asked .

“If you want to see a spectacular scene, you can go outside . Visions are happening all over the whole Realm of Nine Heavens . ” That was something Jiang Chen already knew about . When a Realm Lord appeared, the whole Planes World would know about it .

“Will I be benefited as the Realm Lord?” Jiang Chen asked out of curiosity .

“The Ninefold Palace is only a palace deployed by the Sovereign after the split of the world . It’s only a symbol . It doesn’t really mean you’re the chosen one . What do you want? All of those scriptures and formation knowledge are enough for you, aren’t they?”

“Well, it makes sense . ” Jiang Chen did not intend to get any treasure in the first place . He came here for the title of the Realm Lord so that things would be easier for him .

“What about you? Now that I’m the Realm Lord, you don’t have to stay here anymore, do you?” Jiang Chen asked out of curiosity .

“As long as the Ninefold Palace is here, I’ll be here . The Ninefold Palace will be closed after you take the Realm Lord Ring away . I’ll get a good rest then . ”

“Don’t you want to have a look at the outside world?” Jiang Chen asked . Any living creature with intelligence would not be satisfied with living like this .

The Ninefold Palace was silent for a long time . The voice came when Jiang Chen thought he would not get an answer . “Everything has its task . My task is to stay in the Ninefold Palace forever . Your task is to protect the Realm of Nine Heavens . ” This was the most serious thing the voice had said . It made one think .

Jiang Chen nodded . Then he changed the topic . After asking about some things to note and liberating the seniors of the Realm of Nine Heavens that had been trapped here, he left the Ninefold Palace . He returned to the Sacred Institute with the Realm Lord Ring . When he arrived, he saw that the place was full of strong humans from various fields .

“Realm Lord!” Those people greeted him as soon as he arrived .

As the living creature of the Ninefold Palace had told him, the whole Realm of Nine Heavens had learned about his becoming the Realm Lord .

Jiang Chen could start to establish the order he wanted now .
