Eternal Saber-Chapter 355 - 75: Divine Artifact Mutation
Chen Tang sized up the newcomer.
This young Feng Xing, with a strong build, wore a black leather jacket. The chest of his outer garment was embedded with a conspicuous emblem symbolizing the Congyun Race.
It seemed that after joining Beihai Country, this person had already gained importance.
Feng Xing had short black hair, with a slight, somewhat ambiguous smile on his lips. His sharp gaze was filled with an inexplicable gloom and coldness, inconsistent with his age.
"Feng Xing, you actually have the nerve to face me?"
Shen Yu didn’t have a good expression, angrily questioning.
"Miss Yu’er must be joking."
Feng Xing said, "I heard that Commander Shen has invited an expert warrior to join the genius battle, and out of curiosity, I decided to come and take a look."
"You already know about this?"
Shen Yu snorted lightly, "I wonder which scumbag leaked the information!"
Shen Jin frowned slightly, his expression somewhat unnatural.
Feng Xing chuckled, his gaze sweeping over Chen Tang and Ye Yushi, finally landing on Chen Tang. Somewhat in disbelief, he asked, "Miss Yu’er, the expert warrior Commander Shen invited is not this country bumpkin, is it?"
Shen Yu replied, "What if he is?"
The commotion here also drew the attention of those around them.
Even a graceful young woman sitting next to an elder of the Amaterasu Race looked over.
Following Feng Xing’s words, everyone’s gaze fell on Chen Tang.
Seeing Chen Tang in disguise, some shook their heads, others were astonished, and some couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
This person looked like he was in his late thirties or forties, with no combat qualification at all.
If the Shen Family let this person compete, it would be self-humiliation.
Not to mention anything else, just this appearance gave a very poor first impression!
People like Murakumo Kyo and Amaterasu Chizuru, not only highly talented and powerful but also exceptionally attractive, like a golden couple, thus gaining public approval and admiration.
Feng Xing smiled and said, "Just look at the reactions of the people around, why bother?"
"It’s none of your business!"
Shen Yu said, "See you at the genius battle, and let’s see who laughs last then!"
"Is he qualified?"
Feng Xing raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Whether he’s qualified or not, it’s not for you to say!"
Shen Yu said, "We are just here to register!"
With that, she grabbed Chen Tang by the arm and walked forward.
Originally, a group of people was lining up in front of them, but seeing this scene, everyone, eager for a spectacle, quickly made way.
"Let him test first!"
"Haha, I’m curious to see how old this person is."
In the blink of an eye, Chen Tang and the others arrived at a waist-high stand.
The middle of the stand contained a face-sized silver ring, emanating a blinding light, making it difficult to stare at for long.
The sky over the Amaterasu Palace opened up, and the scorching sun shone down on the silver ring, casting a shadow on the ground.
This silver ring is the Celestial Mirror, one of the Three Great Divine Artifacts.
Each person only needed to extend their arm into the silver circle, wait for a moment, and it would reveal their age and cultivation information on the ground shadow.
Next to the Celestial Mirror, two elderly members of the Amaterasu Race guarded it, alongside a young woman in white.
The woman in white was tall, with long and slender legs, her luscious black hair cascading down her waist. Her eyes, like deep black gemstones, exuded a calm and determined expression.
The white attire on her was quite unique, embroidered with the insignia of the Amaterasu Race. Sleeves were wide, her waist narrow, and the hem meticulously pleated.
This must be Amaterasu Chizuru.
Chen Tang thought to himself.
Though seeing Chen Tang’s unkempt and disheveled appearance, Amaterasu Chizuru’s eyes bore no disdain, merely quietly reminding, "Brother, participants in the genius battle must be under twenty years old."
"I know that."
Chen Tang grinned, "I just look mature."
Amaterasu Chizuru’s lips twitched slightly, "Well, give it a try, just extend your arm inside, remember not to touch the Celestial Mirror."
Chen Tang calmly extended his arm inside.
Just as his hand entered the ring, the Vajra Relic in his dantian that had been calm suddenly shook!
The Celestial Mirror seemed to sense something, suddenly emanating a brilliant light!
This change caused an uproar around them.
The intense light that burst from the Celestial Mirror filled the entire Amaterasu Palace, dazzling and magnificent, the brightness so intense that even the two elderly Amaterasu elders nearby could not stand it and quickly shut their eyes.
Exclamations filled their ears, with chaos ensuing within the Amaterasu Palace.
Chen Tang was also forced to close his eyes by the intense light.
His hand seemed to reach into magma, scorching and searing!
The Vajra Relic resonated once more, releasing a surge of golden energy swiftly rushing toward Chen Tang’s hand.
The two powers emanating from the Celestial Mirror and the Vajra Relic began to wage a battle within Chen Tang’s body!
The golden force seemed unable to withstand the onslaught, swiftly retreating.
And the mysterious power from the Celestial Mirror seized the opportunity, surging into Chen Tang’s body, following the path of the golden force, flooding into the Tian Pill!
With a loud boom!
It felt as if a thunderclap erupted in Chen Tang’s dantian, shocking his entire body like a lightning strike!
He quickly entered the Divine Illumination State, introspecting his dantian.
He saw a surge of silver power rushing into his dantian, searing and blazing, radiating an intense light.
This silver power rushed in, seemingly ’seeing’ the Vajra Relic, and surprisingly, it tried to turn back and withdraw from Chen Tang’s dantian.
