Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 1386 - 1387: The War King Clan

Just now, when the Ancient Emperor of Tongmen activated this Taigu Copper Gate, he probably used less than thirty percent of its power.

This Taigu Copper Gate, Chu Fengmian feels, is even older than the Human Sovereign Jar in his hand.

Among all the Spiritual Artifacts Chu Fengmian has seen, it is considered the oldest.

"Xing Xuan."

Chu Fengmian studied for a bit and called out in his mind.

In terms of knowledge, Xing Xuan definitely surpasses Chu Fengmian.

"Oh? Did you get your hands on something good again?"

After a while, Xing Xuan slowly awoke from his slumber and curiously asked.

Now, Chu Fengmian’s strength has reached a new level, so Xing Xuan usually remains in slumber, and moments like when Chu Fengmian actively calls him are rare.

"This is?"

When Xing Xuan appeared, he immediately saw the Taigu Copper Gate, and given his experience, he could instantly tell that this Taigu Copper Gate was extraordinary.

"Taigu Copper Gate?"

"You know it?"

Seeing Xing Xuan call out the name of the Taigu Copper Gate, Chu Fengmian asked curiously.

"This thing has actually emerged?"

"What is the origin of this Taigu Copper Gate?"

Seeing Xing Xuan’s amazement, Chu Fengmian discerned that the Taigu Copper Gate’s origin was absolutely not ordinary.

Chu Fengmian can only tell that this Taigu Copper Gate is extremely ancient, but its specific origin is still unclear to him.

"Do you know the Battle King clan?"

Xing Xuan glanced at the Taigu Copper Gate but didn’t answer Chu Fengmian, instead asking him.

"Battle King clan?"

Chu Fengmian searched his mind for the name; he had read countless ancient texts in his previous life and knew things unfamiliar to many.

"Human royal family of the Ancient Times? Battle King clan?"

Suddenly, Chu Fengmian’s eyes lit up as he recalled an ancient text.

During the Ancient Times, the Human Clan was not strong and was merely one among hundreds of tribes, far from achieving domination, facing great peril and the risk of extinction.

And this Battle King clan was the royal family of Humans at that time, and they had guarded Humans on numerous occasions.

The Battle King clan was renowned for their Body Refinement techniques, and it is said they perfected these techniques.

It is said that many of today’s Body Refinement methods come from the Battle King clan.

"This Taigu Copper Gate is reportedly one of the Battle King clan’s five Holy Artifacts, known as the Battle King Copper Gate, though its true name is Taigu Copper Gate."

Xing Xuan muttered as his eyes gleamed upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words.

"A Holy Artifact of the Battle King clan has emerged in this era?"

The Battle King clan’s era was millions of years ago, not thousands or hundreds of thousands but tens of millions of years ago.

Traces from that era have nearly vanished, and even the name Battle King clan was only found in an ancient text Chu Fengmian read; otherwise, he wouldn’t know its origins.

"Holy Artifact? Aren’t the Holy Artifacts of the Battle King clan all Extreme Immortal Soldiers?"

Suddenly, Chu Fengmian’s expression changed.

Records state that the Battle King clan has five Holy Artifacts: Battle King Copper Gate, Battle King Treasure Garment, Battle King Cauldron, Battle King Totem, and Battle King Ox Cart, all Extreme Immortal Soldiers.

"This Taigu Copper Gate is indeed an Extreme Immortal Soldier, but the one before us is not."

Xing Xuan observed for a moment and spoke.

"An essential trait of Extreme Immortal Soldiers is the presence of an Artifact Spirit, and the Taigu Copper Gate before us lacks one. It must have experienced something in ancient times that destroyed its Artifact Spirit, so it no longer counts as an Extreme Immortal Soldier."

"However, even so, the Taigu Copper Gate surpasses numerous heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifacts. For you, it holds great potential. The Taigu Copper Gate was once a guarding Holy Artifact of the Battle King clan. Integrating it into your body, placing it before the Divine Tree, will make your body more resilient."

Lost its Artifact Spirit?

Chu Fengmian hadn’t considered this point; his understanding of Extreme Immortal Soldiers is still lacking, as the only one he truly interacted with is the Human Sovereign Jar.

But the Human Sovereign Jar is broken, lacking the so-called Artifact Spirit.

"Can’t this Taigu Copper Gate be restored?"

Chu Fengmian asked unwillingly.

A genuine Extreme Immortal Soldier is fundamentally different from a broken one.

Records indicate that even among celestial beings, those who possess genuine Extreme Immortal Soldiers are rare, and only the very strongest are eligible to own one.

"Of course, this Taigu Copper Gate already has the capacity to nurture an Artifact Spirit. If you keep nurturing and cultivating it, one day it will be born, allowing it to truly return to the level of an Extreme Immortal Soldier."

Xing Xuan casually responded.

Hearing this, Chu Fengmian was satisfied, as the Taigu Copper Gate still held the potential to be restored into an Extreme Immortal Soldier, much like the Human Sovereign Jar.

Currently, Chu Fengmian has obtained five fragments of the Human Sovereign Jar, and acquiring the other four will fully restore it.

If the Taigu Copper Gate is restored as well, Chu Fengmian would own two Extreme Immortal Soldiers, giving him confidence to battle, even kill, celestial beings.

"When can I master the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword?"

Suddenly, Chu Fengmian asked.

Within Chu Fengmian’s body lies a massive treasure: the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword.

This sword, once capable of instilling fear across the Nine Domains, brings a sea of blood whenever it appears.

When Chu Fengmian forced his way through the Six Paths Demon Gate, the absence of the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword would’ve meant his death at the hands of the Sky Demon Venerable.

Although Chu Fengmian only used the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword once, it made him feel invincible, truly invincible, unmatched.

If Chu Fengmian can truly master the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword, his strength would transform drastically.

However, the last time Chu Fengmian forcefully used the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword, he almost couldn’t protect himself, despite killing the Sky Demon Venerable.

Had it not been for his luck, ending up on the Yao Ancient Continent, Chu Fengmian would have perished.

But now, Chu Fengmian’s strength has reached the level of an Ancient Emperor, making him tempted to utilize the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword.

"Not enough, your strength is still insufficient."

Xing Xuan glanced at Chu Fengmian and shook his head.

Not enough?

Chu Fengmian frowned upon hearing this result. He can now use the Human Sovereign Jar effortlessly, even enough to summon the Human Sovereign Phantom within.

In terms of power, Chu Fengmian is no longer under a Seven Tribulation Ancient Emperor; he assumes he should be able to barely attempt wielding the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword.

Yet Xing Xuan’s response was that it’s still insufficient?
