Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 326 - 322: Inheriting the Ancient God’s Legacy

Chapter 326: Chapter 322: Inheriting the Ancient God’s Legacy

The woman with a human body and snake tail claimed to be the Ancient Empress, and at this moment, she was looking down at the small mud figures near her snake tail.

Xia Feng recalled some legends he had learned in his previous life, and his expression grew even more respectful towards this being.

The Empress looked down at him: "Hmm, human, not bad..."

The small mud figures at her feet were bouncing and running wildly beside her, jabbering in a language that no one could understand.

The Empress waved her hand, letting these little figures run to the other side, and then she looked at Xia Feng with great interest.

"Since that being chose you, there must be something extraordinary about you."

A seemingly infinite Power of Life surged from her palm, the green essence infiltrating Xia Feng’s body, causing him both pain and joy.

Just as the Water God and Fire God had done earlier, the Empress imparted the sword technique she mastered to Xia Feng in this manner.

It seemed as if only that touch of green remained between heaven and earth; with one sword strike, all things came to life.

The all-encompassing Power of Life spread everywhere, highlighting its presence.

Then the Empress looked at Xia Feng with a hint of tenderness in her eyes: "Actually, I’m not good at swordsmanship, but human, you seem to carry a familiar aura."

Her tender expression also carried a hint of confusion, clearly feeling that this situation should not have occurred.

When the Ancient Divine Realm collapsed, the world fell into ruin.

The Ancient Gods are almost all buried here now, and the humans she created could not possibly appear in this world.

Perhaps the long silence has made her somewhat dazed.

The Empress gently patted Xia Feng’s shoulder, causing him to stumble.

"Sorry, I forgot you can’t withstand so much power."

She withdrew some of her force, but still infused a mass of colorful energy into his body, visibly filling Xia Feng.

Just as Xia Feng tried to collect himself, the Empress waved her hand: "Go, human, go do what you are meant to do."

"Keep a still mind and continue forward, I believe what I created..."

Before the rest of the words were finished, Xia Feng already felt his Divine Sense reemerging outside the Illusion Realm.

He stood there for a long time, seemingly perplexed about the significance of the Ancient Divine Hall’s existence.

This place doesn’t resemble a trial, more like it is passing down a legacy to him.

His gaze fell deep into the hall, wondering what might be there.

However, now it seemed more appropriate to accept the current inheritance.

The Qingxue Sword in his palm was emitting a clear and ringing sound.

As if it was also completing a transformation from a Pseudo Divine Artifact to a Divine Artifact.

Previously, when Dongfang Hao came to take him to the Upper Realm,

he once let slip, saying that Xia Feng’s Void Cauldron is an Ancient Divine Artifact, which puzzled Xia Feng.

It was only after asking Sun Yazhu that he learned there are two types of Divine Artifacts: Ancient Divine Artifacts and Divine Artifacts.

Ancient Divine Artifacts are those born of heaven and earth, containing the complete Heaven and Earth Laws, and because they were used by the Ancient Gods, they are referred to as Ancient Divine Artifacts.

Some of these Ancient Divine Artifacts have even become sentient, having their own Spiritual Ability.

Whereas ordinary Divine Artifacts are nurtured by Martial Gods, containing the laws comprehended by the Martial God.

Just like if the Qingxue Sword in Xia Feng’s hand can transform into a Divine Artifact through today’s events, it would be an ordinary Divine Artifact.

It would only contain the Great Dao of the Celestial Sword understood by Xia Feng.

Someday, if he comprehends a deeper Great Dao, or if he can gather all the Great Dao he understands in one place, the Qingxue Sword might also have the potential to grow into an Ancient Divine Artifact.

Only that would likely take a very, very long time to achieve.

In comparison, it is clear that Ancient Divine Artifacts are more precious than ordinary Divine Artifacts.

In the Divine Domain, ordinary Divine Artifacts may not be everywhere, but almost every Martial God nurtures their own Divine Artifact, though their strength varies.

But in the Divine Domain, Ancient Divine Artifacts are extremely few, and even the few Divine Kings don’t possess many Ancient Divine Artifacts.

Sun Yazhu also mentioned that both the Void Cauldron and the Purple Gold Cauldron are Ancient Divine Artifacts, especially the Void Cauldron, which seems to be one of the more formidable types among Ancient Divine Artifacts.

Xia Feng touched the Spirit Light Flying Boat in his arms, speculating that might also be an Ancient Divine Artifact.

Moreover, he is now in the God Burial Valley; here, without saying anything else, remnants of ancient divine souls and projections are truly abundant.

He doesn’t know what might have happened here before, he only knows that these individuals might all hold traces of Ancient Divine Artifacts.

As Xia Feng thought of this, his eyes brightened, and he began to inspect each sculpture, trying to enter more Illusion Realms.

However, the reliefs on that wall, though looking rigid, were actually alive, just like before.

As his hand reached out, many reliefs quickly withdrew, leaving only one or two that could accept him, remaining in their positions.

This felt less like Xia Feng was choosing the reliefs, but rather the reliefs were choosing Xia Feng.

In the end, it was unclear whether it was his imagination, but a total of nine reliefs accepted his touch, pulling him into illusions.

It happened to be the nine Great Daos he comprehended, with one Great Dao of the Celestial Sword left without inherited sword techniques.

His fingertip gently rubbed, perhaps because these are the Great Dao he already mastered, which is why these entities appear to instruct him.

As for those Great Daos he has yet to master, might they also transform into sword techniques and be passed down by these Ancient Gods in the future?

Xia Feng didn’t know what the future would hold, but he couldn’t help speculating in this direction.

After he learned the nine sword techniques, the reliefs on the wall began to conceal themselves, leaving only the most expansive relief he initially saw.

He even had some guesses about this relief.

Heaven Opening from the ancient past.

Although he didn’t know if the Ancient God imparting sword techniques to him was the same as the one in the Ancient Ruins, he still bowed respectfully to the relief.

The relief suddenly expanded before his eyes, transforming the entire world into a giant black hole.

All around, energies floated that Xia Feng dared not touch, feeling faintly that in his current Divine Soul state, even the slightest brush from those energies could obliterate him entirely.

Luckily, the Heaven Opening in the center of this world didn’t mean to trouble him, and a mass of Chaotic Spiritual Qi appeared in its hand, directly enveloping and protecting him.

"I’ve heard of you from the Empress."

The sound of Heaven Opening carried a deep resonance, seemingly particularly curious about Xia Feng.

With just this simple sentence, Xia Feng couldn’t help tensing up, looking nervously towards Heaven Opening.

"You don’t need to be nervous, I won’t trouble you either."

"It’s just that it’s been so long since anyone talked to me, it’s a bit difficult to find someone to chat with."

Xia Feng scratched his ear, hearing that Heaven Opening wanted to chat with him, so he simply found a spot and sat in mid-air.

So what does this make him now?

A professional chat companion?
