Chaotic Sword God

The presence of the Thousand Mechanisms clan's Saint Heart Armour immediately plummeted after losing the saint core.

"The old clan leader sure is awe-inspiring. Our Spiritsages have only truly begun to stand up after we gained the old clan leader."

Within the fetal membrane of the world, the clan leader of the Spiritsages, Ling Tong, became extremely excited. After all, he had just witnessed the Wind Venerable overwhelm an archaean clan with his demands. He felt very proud and self-fulfilled.

"Clan leader, what exactly is a saint core?" Jian Chen stared at the dazzling saint core and asked out of curiosity.

Ling Tong and Jian Chen did not know each other. It could be said that they did not have any connection at all. However, due to the Wind Venerable, he treated Jian Chen with great friendliness. He explained patiently, "Speaking of saint cores, we need to go into the history of our Spiritsages. In the past, when we lived in the Spirits' World, there existed an extremely powerful race called the Saint race!"

"In the Spirits' World, the Saint race was almost publically regarded as the imperial clan. Their bloodline was esteemed and they were powerful. They basically had no opponents at the same level of cultivation. Saint cores were left behind following the deaths of Grand Prime members of the Saint race. They contain the energy when they were still alive. If they're used for forging artifacts, they can lead to surprising results."

"The stronger the expert from the Saint race is, the stronger the saint core that they leave behind. Unfortunately, the Saint race went extinct before the Spirits' World even shattered, so the saint cores left behind never increased from that."

"When we migrated to the Saints' World, we did have a few saint cores in our possession, but after several major battles, some of them were stolen by experts of the Saints' World. Some were also destroyed in the battles. Coupled with the passage of time, only a few saint cores still remain."

"But without any exception, the owners of all the saint cores that managed to last until now are extremely powerful."

As he said that, Ling Tong glanced at Jian Chen and said rather enviously, "The old clan leader is actually threatening archaean clans and taking back the saint cores for your sake. No one in our clan has enjoyed such treatment before."

"Jian Chen, to be honest, even I'm very jealous of the good graces that the old clan leader has shown you."

Jian Chen rubbed his nose awkwardly. For a moment, he had no idea how to respond.

On the other side, the Wind Venerable left the Thousand Mechanisms clan after retrieving the saint core.

The Grand Prime ancestors of the Thousand Mechanisms clan stood with darkened faces, fuming with righteous fury.

"The Wind Sovereign is far too unreasonable. It's not like we stole the saint core from the Spiritsages. What gives him the right to take it away from us forcefully? How is that any different from robbery?"

"The Wind Sovereign has gone too far."

The Grand Primes all spoke up, filled with a sense of injustice. The Saint Heart Armour was one of the five supreme treasures of their clan after the ancestral artifact. It had reached the limit of high quality god artifacts. Now, without the saint core, the Saint Heart Armour was rendered useless.

"Enough! All of you, be quiet!" the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch bellowed. He turned towards them with a sharp gaze and said coldly, "Then in your opinion, our Thousand Mechanisms clan is supposed to provoke a sovereign for the sake of a treasure? Have you considered the consequences of provoking a sovereign?"

"You need to understand that our Thousand Mechanisms clan is an archaean clan of the Saints' World. The title of archaean clan doesn't come from a mere Saint Heart Armour. Losing the Saint Heart Armour is a loss to our Thousand Mechanisms clan, but we're still an archaean clan."

"However, if we provoke a sovereign, we might lose our title at any moment. Are you aware of the weight of each consequence?"

The Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch said rhetorically, which immediately shut up everyone, as they all recalled some matters of the past.

Hadn't their Thousand Mechanisms clan done similar things in the past?

"My friend Jian Chen, you had some disagreements with the Heaven-splitting clan of the Nine Clouds Plane in the past?" The Wind Venerable's voice rang out in Jian Chen's ear within the fetal membrane of the world.

Jian Chen nodded and gave him a rough description of everything that happened between him and the Heaven-splitting clan.

"He actually sent a clone to the Desolate Plane. This Heaven-splitting Ancestor has been a little abusive of his powers." The Wind Venerable's voice became rather cold after hearing Jian Chen's description.

Jian Chen blinked his eyes in some surprise and uncertainty. He vaguely guessed what was about to happen now that the Wind Venerable had suddenly asked about the Heaven-splitting clan.

The Nine Clouds Plane ranked towards the top even among the forty-nine great planes of the Saints' World. They were a plane with extremely great strength overall.

That was because the Nine Clouds Plane possessed the Heaven-splitting clan!

The Heaven-splitting clan's name rang through the Saints' World because of the Heaven-splitting Ancestor, which made them a superior clan renowned throughout the entire world.

The Heaven-splitting Ancestor was an expert who had already reached peak Grand Prime!

Boom!

At this moment, a startling rumble suddenly rang out across the Nine Clouds Plane. Soon afterwards, a terrifying shockwave of energy erupted. The entire Nine Clouds Plane that drifted through outer space began to shake violently, shifting from its position.

At this moment, the expression of all the experts on the Nine Clouds Plane changed drastically. They all looked off in the Heaven-splitting clan's direction as numerous powerful senses of the soul wove together, wandering over.

However, when they discovered the Heaven-splitting clan's current situation, they all became extremely stern, coupled with a deep sense of shock.

"The Heaven-splitting clan's protective formation has been destroyed."

"Unbelievable! The Heaven-splitting clan's protective formation is extremely powerful. It took the Heaven-splitting clan numerous years to set it up. It can block the attacks of Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, but now, the formation was actually destroyed instantly."

"Exactly what kind of power do you need to destroy the Heaven-splitting clan's protective formation instantly?"

At that moment, all the experts with some understanding of the Heaven-splitting clan's protective formation became extremely shocked.

Suddenly, a surging presence erupted from within the Heaven-splitting clan, shaking up the galaxies. Before this presence, even the sky full of stars dimmed.

"It's the Heaven-splitting Ancestor. We're in for a show now."

"The person who instantly destroyed the formation possesses unimaginable strength. Just who has the Heaven-splitting Ancestor provoked?"

The Heaven-splitting Ancestor appeared. He hovered above the Heaven-splitting clan with an extremely sunken face. His eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent.

"Who dares to destroy my protective formation? If I don't get an explanation for this, I'll never just let it be!" the Heaven-splitting Ancestor said coldly. As a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, he feared no one apart from the supreme Grand Exalts.

But in the next moment, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor's eyes suddenly narrowed. His expression that had sunken after the destruction of the protective formation turned into disbelief.

His surging presence immediately vanished. In the next moment, all of his fury and dissatisfaction had vanished. He trembled slightly.

He took a step and appeared in the space around the Nine Clouds Plane. The Wind Venerable stood quietly right in front of him.

The Heaven-splitting Ancestor did not even have the courage to hover at the same height as the Wind Venerable. His head just happened to be located beneath the Wind Venerable's feet, bowing politely towards him. "Greetings, Wind Sovereign. I truly was unaware of the Wind Sovereign's visit, so I've failed to welcome you. Please forgive me for this!"

"The Heaven-splitting clan's formation was destroyed by me. According to what you said, if I don't give you an explanation, what will you do to me?" the Wind Venerable said mildly.
