Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 1645 - 1646: An Unexpected Secret

Chu Fengmian sat upon the plain.

Behind him emerged the shadow of a giant dragon, embodying an exceedingly powerful aura.

As each drop of Dragon Emperor blood essence gathered, the aura exuded by Chu Fengmian grew increasingly overwhelming.

"Three thousand drops!"

As Chu Fengmian slowly opened his eyes, within the depths of his body, the quantity of Dragon Emperor blood essence had reached precisely three thousand drops.

These three thousand drops of Dragon Emperor blood essence had reached a small bottleneck, prompting Chu Fengmian to halt his cultivation.

The Dragon Emperor shadow behind Chu Fengmian gradually dissipated.

During this time, Chu Fengmian had slain numerous strong warriors, first killing Young Master Huang, and then obliterating the flesh and blood of Little Prince Han Ye, devouring ninety percent of his blood essence.

This time, Chu Fengmian had also defeated the martial artists from the Yan and Mu families.

The true power of Yan Jun and Mu Jiu nearly reached the level of Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, so Chu Fengmian essentially devoured the blood essence of five Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors.

Coupled with the substantial ancient sage pills and myriad treasures obtained from the space rings of these individuals, Chu Fengmian’s power surged dramatically during this period.

It’s about time to stabilize his realm.

Although Chu Fengmian could still forcefully enhance his power further, he was not someone with short-sighted vision.

His future goal was the Heavenly Human Realm, potentially reaching the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, and attaining the position of a Ninth Stage Immortal Emperor.

He naturally would not compromise his foundation for short-term power gains.

With three thousand drops of Dragon Emperor blood essence, Chu Fengmian’s current strength is unmatched even among Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors. It’s time to pause and consolidate his realm.

Moreover, to break through to a Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, Chu Fengmian would need vast resources, and during this time, he could gather resources and seek the opportunity to strike that breakthrough.

Additionally, as Chu Fengmian’s power increased, disturbances during his cultivation became more pronounced.

Just now, as Chu Fengmian sat on the plain, breaking through, he attracted the prying eyes of several martial artists.

Among them were a few Ancient Emperors who intended to steal a strike while Chu Fengmian was cultivating.

However, Chu Fengmian could now annihilate even Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors with a single strike. Some Seven and Eight Tribulations Ancient Emperors dared to attack him.

Without needing Chu Fengmian to intervene, just the spiritual power reverberating from the Dragon Emperor shadow behind him obliterated all the attacking Seven and Eight Tribulations Ancient Emperors.

The remaining martial artists and demonic beings retreated after witnessing this spectacle, no longer daring to provoke Chu Fengmian.

"Unexpectedly, the Yan family has extended their influence into the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain. It seems the people of the Yama Star Domain have been coveting the treasures of the Nine Domains for quite some time now."

Chu Fengmian’s eyes bore a cold gleam.

While cultivating, Chu Fengmian extracted Yan Jun’s memories, uncovering considerable information regarding the Yama Star Domain.

The aspect that startled Chu Fengmian most was the Yan family already infiltrating the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain.

Within the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain was a guild known as the Feiyuan Merchant Guild.

Although not the largest guild within the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain, it held minor renown, with branches scattered across various continents in the domain.

The clandestine owner of this Feiyuan Merchant Guild is none other than the Yan family.

This secret is known by very few within the Yan family, and no one beyond knows this in the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain.

Yan Jun was one of the few geniuses the Yan family had invested heavily in, bearing hopes of competing for the next Family Head post, which is why he knew the entire secret.

Yan Jun and others from the Yan family, leveraging the Feiyuan Merchant Guild’s intelligence in the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain, were the first batch to reach the Nine Domains.

Like Yan Jun, they arrived in the Nine Domains ahead of the martial artists from the four major forces in the Daluo Heavenly Star Domain, seizing a significant amount of treasure.

However, a large portion of the obtained treasures had already been transported away to the Feiyuan Merchant Guild.

Though Chu Fengmian slew Yan Jun, what was in Yan Jun’s space ring was merely a small fraction of what the Yan family possessed.

The true bulk of it lies in the Feiyuan Merchant Guild, already transported out of the Nine Domains to the headquarters on the Feiyuan Continent.

"Need to find an opportunity to raid the Feiyuan Merchant Guild’s treasury!"

Chu Fengmian muttered to himself.

In Yan Jun’s memory, the treasures within the Feiyuan Merchant Guild were infinite, at least a thousand times more than what was in Yan Jun’s space ring.

If Chu Fengmian could seize all the treasures in the Feiyuan Merchant Guild’s vault, he’d have all the resources needed to push through to the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor.

However, now wasn’t the right time; the Feiyuan Continent is far from the Nine Domains, and it would take Chu Fengmian ten days to journey there and back.

Currently, Chu Fengmian had no time to waste like that; he would wait until the upheaval in the Nine Domains subsided before heading to the Feiyuan Continent.

Anyway, the Feiyuan Merchant Guild’s treasures piled up like mountains, and they couldn’t transport everything to the Yama Star Domain in a short time.

The Feiyuan Merchant Guild was only Chu Fengmian’s pleasant surprise; he initially wondered why the Yan family’s martial artists reached the Crimson Continent before him.

Thus, Chu Fengmian deliberately retained Yan Jun’s memories to investigate, uncovering the matter of the Feiyuan Merchant Guild.

Of course, the greatest gain from slaying Yan Jun and others was the Human Emperor pot.

With a thought, Chu Fengmian summoned the Emperor pot to appear before him.

The Emperor pot fragments total nine, and Chu Fengmian had already obtained six of them.

Now the Emperor pot emerged, partly damaged but repaired.

Simultaneously, the broken patterns began to coalesce, restoring about half.

An ancient and potent aura emanated from the Emperor pot.

Now the Emperor pot was no longer a fragment but resembled a broken spiritual artifact, hinting at the peak condition it once held.

"Out with the halberd!"

With a thought, Chu Fengmian transformed the Emperor pot in his hand into an ancient copper halberd.

The Emperor’s Halberd!

Chu Fengmian gripped this ancient copper halberd, its divine might awe-inspiring, shaking all heavens.

Though the Emperor’s Halberd and the Emperor’s Spear both stemmed from the Emperor pot, the power they contained was entirely different.

The Emperor’s Spear possessed power to break everything, an unstoppable edge.

The Emperor’s Halberd, however, embodied the heavy might to suppress heavens and quell chaos.
