Chapter 619: Ten Thousand Sword God Pool【Extra Ten Chapters】_1
Time flies, ten days later.
The Luo Divine Palace.
Shrouded by a long river exuding a hazy celestial aura, various palaces floated in the air. A star radiating a gentle light, reminiscent of the moon, cast a hazy, brilliant light, illuminating the Luo God River.
At this moment, under the moonlight, Chu Yuan sat in a chair, a book in his hand. Sometimes he frowned, sometimes he meditated, and sometimes a soft sound would escape his lips.
"Your Majesty, what book are you reading?"
Luo Yueying came over, made tea for Chu Yuan herself, and served it to him.
Days become fulfilling when there's something to do.
Since Chu Yuan built the Luo God Palace for her, Luo Yueying found a purpose - to gather some special talents in the Luo God Palace to cultivate talent for Dawu.
"Sit."
Chu Yuan lightly patted the chair.
The chair was large enough to accommodate two people.
"Some ancient records. I am learning some old scripts. The history of the eternal world is long, and many records have been lost, only existing in bits and pieces. Some scripts are even difficult to identify."
Chu Yuan said, "There are also some folk tales from the Nine-Nether World that I have collected, narratives of the stars."
"Let me have a look."
Luo Yueying also looked at these books, sitting with Chu Yuan in the chair.
"There are too few people who understand those ancient scripts. After all, the records are scant."
Chu Yuan sighed, "The two main cities we found came from an extremely ancient era. If we could decipher all the scripts, perhaps we would uncover a huge secret. I'm also recruiting talent in this area."
"We will decipher it. There are many extraordinary people in the eternal world."
Luo Yueying said.
....
Yang Teng returned from the Demon God Abyss.
He did well, bringing a large number of demons into the Lock Devil Tower.
"Your Majesty, the Demon God Abyss in the eternal world is really strange. I kept delving deeper and deeper, and even with my cultivation level, I felt scared. It's as if there is an extremis terrifying existence at the source."
Even Yang Teng, who dared to grapple with gods, was horrified of the Demon God Abyss.
"Indeed, the Demon God Abyss holds a great secret. With so many demons, it wouldn't be possible without terrifying energy."
Chu Yuan acknowledged his speculation, saying, "Go train in the Secret Realm, I will summon you when there is a mission."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yang Teng was particularly fond of the divine energy in the Human God Realm.
Soon after, Li Jianqing returned and immediately took the Artifact Refining masters of Dawu to choose a site, draft blueprints, and start constructing the Wan Sword Divine Pool.
"Your Majesty, look at this. Recently, I have been collecting information about the ancient cities. Sixty-seven have surfaced across the Eternal World, with three appearing within our Great Dawu Kingdom, including one main city. There have also been sightings on the demon clans' territories."
Feather God Guang reported, "It seems these ancient cities indeed spread all over the Eternal World."
"Very strange indeed. Put the script from the ancient city in the National Library," Chu Yuan said, "Also, how about that other matter I left you to investigate?"
"Ah, we have carefully compared the data and found that at not too far a distance from each ancient city, incidents similar to what happened in Soul Mountain have occurred, exactly like what the previous emperor encountered. We can now assert that the late emperor's death has a great connection to the ancient cities."
Feather God Guang replied.
As Chu Yuan continued to investigate, the cause of the late emperor's death began to become clearer, with the focus being the ancient cities. Read exclusive chapters at My Virtual Library Empire
"Where there's smoke there's fire. According to the current situation, there are more than just these ancient cities that have surfaced - those that have appeared are just main city-scale. Holy city-scale ones have not yet appeared. I roughly understand the circumstances surrounding the late emperor's death. Now, we have to wait for more ancient cities to appear."
Chu Yuan was gradually understanding the cause of the late emperor's death.
But now, they had to wait for higher-ranked ancient cities to appear and to uncover the secret hidden within.
Fifty-first winter of Dawu.
The war never ceased.
Chu Yuan looked at his side quest of Thousand Gods Slayer; killing ten thousand Celestial Gods had already been half completed, perhaps another large-scale battle could finish it.
The construction of the Wan Sword Divine Pool was also complete.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
At the Wan Sword Divine Pool, Li Jianqing's body stood tall like a sword. The pool, now finally built according to his plan, was before him.
Instead of water, the extensive pool was filled with Divine Swords. All the pillars here were Divine Iron Sword Pillars.
Everywhere was filled with the sound of humming swords. The Divine Swords placed here were all God Tools with a spirit, born with spiritual sense.
"Greetings, our Holy Majesty!"
Upon Chu Yuan's arrival, countless ministers knelt and bowed.
The swords also bent their bodies and hummed in salute to Chu Yuan.
"Arise."
Dressed in solemn black imperial robes, Chu Yuan approached the Wan Sword Divine Pool. His gaze swept over it and he nodded, "Very well, today is the day the Wan Sword Divine Pool is completed and opened. Let me ignite the Divine Flame to initiate the Divine Pool."
With a wave of his hand, a roaring flame lit up within the pool, countless dreadful sword lights flared up, piercing through heaven and earth.
The Wan Sword Divine Pool, where the primal cause was slaughter.
He stood on the highest steps, looking at the pool. Before him, there was also an incense burner that he lit himself, instantly emitting a beam of light that morphed into a divine sword.
"Let the inauguration of the Wan Sword Divine Pool signal the birth of a new holy land for sword cultivators!"
Chu Yuan announced.
"Our Majesty!"
"Our Majesty!"
"Our Majesty!"
Cheers filled the air.
With the opening of the Wan Sword Divine Pool, it meant that Dawu had another holy site, capable of attracting more cultivators. Furthermore, with the Wan Sword Divine Pool as a foundation, it could cultivate even more sword-army oriented by following the Sword Dao.
"Dawu will establish even more holy sites in the future."
Chu Yuan said.
"Your Majesty, I've discovered that there are many people in Dawu who have a talent for sword cultivation. Some even have a special constitution for the Sword Dao. If these individuals were to train in the Wan Sword Divine Pool, they would become formidable sword cultivators."
Li Jianqing only realized how many geniuses were in Dawu after the construction of the Wan Sword Divine Pool, they were as plentiful as fish crossing a river.
"The existence of the Sword Army is necessary. I will give my full support. You have to cultivate more members of the Sword Army for me. They will be the nightmare of our enemies on the battlefield."
Chu Yuan said.
The Sword Army was ruthless and desirable for a frontal assault.
And the establishment of the Wan Sword Divine Pool was actually Chu Yuan building up foundation. To become an Imperial Dynasty, one not only needed enough experts but also sufficient foundation.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to complete the main mission.
"I understand!"
Li Jianqing's eyes flashed fiercely, he assertively replied, "Sword cultivators should not only practice their sword in the pool but also relish the blood of the enemy on the battlefield, achieving eternal honor!"
"Good."
The Wan Sword Divine Pool was now open.
With its inauguration, Chu Yuan began to select those with talent in the Sword Dao across Dawu and trained them in the Wan Sword Divine Pool.
Moreover, since the inception of the Wan Sword Divine Pool, the number of Sword Army members had rapidly increased in a short period.
"Dawu still needs more foundations for the ascension to the Imperial Dynasty!"
Chu Yuan said.
His gaze suddenly shifted towards the Thirty-Three Heaven Tower, where again there were the sounds of a massive explosion, as if countless layers of void were shattering. This time, it was a continuous vibration of the twenty heavens!
