Chapter 670: Chapter 670: The Secret of Ten Thousand Years Ago, Qing Shu Sword Sect’s Han Yonghui
The words of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword sent a shock through Ye Feng’s heart.
This dilapidated Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact standing on the deserted island was actually the prototype of the Demon-locking Tower?
Could it be that the Demon-locking Towers in the outside world were all created based on this one?
Ye Feng became even more shocked.
He looked at the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword to inquire about the situation.
“Sect Leader may not know, this matter is related to that great war ten thousand years ago,” the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword said somberly.
Ye Feng immediately became interested.
“Talk about it.”
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword fell silent for a moment, then said:
“Our Eighteen Ancient Clans were once the overlords of the Southern River Basin, and during our peak stage, we had eighteen Heavenly Emperors at the Void Break Peak.”
“With the help of the ‘Eighteen Star River Great Formation,’ the eighteen Heavenly Emperors were powerful enough to sweep through the Void Break Realm. In one battle to resist foreign invasion, they risked their own demise to kill a Quasi-Saint.”
“And it was then that the prototype of the Demon-locking Tower appeared.”
“The true Demon-locking Towers number five, each a Supreme Grade Spiritual Treasure, jointly known as the ‘Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Towers,’ capable of suppressing Quasi-Saint Level powerhouses.”
“This object was the personal life Spiritual Treasure of the Quasi-Saint who was slain. With his fall, it too lost its master.”
“In that battle, three of the Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Towers were shattered, and two were cracked.”
“One of them was obtained by our clan and has remained here.”
“Another was taken away by the Prophet Clan.”
Hearing this, Ye Feng’s gaze flickered.
He looked at the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword: “So you’re saying the Demon-locking Tower of the Prophet Clan was replicated and improved based on the Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Towers?”
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword nodded: “Yes.”
Ye Feng looked at the Demon-locking Tower and said, “I’m very curious, what was the mysterious force that attacked the Shenzhou Continent ten thousand years ago, and did the Prophet Clan participate in the war back then?”
“This matter is a bit complicated.”
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword flew as he recounted.
“Ten thousand years ago, the entire Shenzhou Continent came under a widespread attack when over a hundred Starry Sky Mighty Races invaded simultaneously; the ‘Divine Tower Tribe’ was the force attacking the Southern River Basin area.”
“This tribe is also one of the Starry Sky Mighty Races, possessing a One-Turn Quasi-Saint adept at crafting various pagodas.”
“The Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Towers were the pinnacle of the Divine Tower Tribe’s creations.”
“If not for the existence of the Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Towers, the previous generation Clan Leaders of our Eighteen Ancient Clans wouldn’t have had to risk their downfall just to tear through the defenses of the Divine Tower Tribe’s Clan Leader.”
“After that battle, the Divine Tower Tribe was exterminated.”
“The Quasi-Saint of the Prophet Clan was severely wounded elsewhere in the Shenzhou Continent, fled to the Southern River Basin area, took another Demon-locking Tower, and based on that tower, created the subsequent Demon-locking Towers.”
“At that time, if not for the timely arrival of Quasi-Saints from other Five-Star Forces in the Shenzhou Continent, the survivors of our Eighteen Ancient Clans would have been wiped out by the passing Prophet Clan Quasi-Saints.”
“After that battle.”
“Our Eighteen Ancient Clans went into hiding underground, waiting for Heaven and Earth to recover, which led to the subsequent events.”
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword narrated leisurely.
Hearing this, Ye Feng finally understood this part of history.
He touched his chin and asked, “Then, do you know about the gigantic skull buried a hundred miles beneath the Hardwood Plains?”
“Are you referring to the Ancient Holy God?”
The Sect Master of Blood Lotus Sect interjected, “That skull has been there for tens of thousands of years, believed to be that of a Body Cultivation Great Power. However, due to the ancient history, even we don’t know much about it.”
“You actually know about it?” Ye Feng was surprised.
“In that war ten thousand years ago, the skull of the Ancient Holy God once unleashed a terrifying attack, killing a Four-Turn Quasi-Saint from afar, its fame was formidable, of course we know about it,” the Sect Master of Shadow Demon Sect chimed in.
Upon hearing these words, Ye Feng became even more astounded.
Even with just a skull remaining, it could still kill a Four-Turn Quasi-Saint from across the void; how terrifying!
Just a skull was so formidable.
If that Ancient Holy God were to return to its Peak Stage, how fearsome would its strength be?
“By the way, you just mentioned that ten thousand years ago, the entire Shenzhou Continent faced a massive invasion of foreign enemies. So, did the Ancient Saints of the Nine Great Holy Lands take action?”
Ye Feng was very curious.
“Of course, the Ancient Saints have taken action, but their strength is too formidable. The Ancient Saints of the Shenzhou Continent are mostly in the depths of the starry skies, dealing with the Saint Realm of the Foreign Clans. The battlefield is very far away, and we can’t make contact,” explained the Ancestor of the Green-garbed Sword.
“In fact, there are quite a few encounters between Saints in the depths of the starry sky on regular days, but because they conceal their presence from the heavenly secrets, we are unaware of them,” added the Sect Master of the Blood Lotus Sect.
“I see!” Ye Feng nodded in understanding.
At this moment, the group flew above the ruined prototype of the Demon-locking Tower.
[Name: Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Tower]
[Grade: Supreme Grade Spiritual Treasure (Damaged)]
[Note: Crafted by the Clan Leader of the Divine Tower Tribe as a life-bound Spiritual Treasure, originally there were five towers and now only two remain. They possess formidable suppressive power and at their peak, could suppress a Quasi-Saint]
Ye Feng saw the relevant information through the Eye of Insight.
“Sect Leader, we have transformed this tower into a secret realm. It contains a Teleportation Array within, and every year, the younger generation of our Eighteen Ancient Clans would enter for cultivation trials,” explained the Ancestor of the Green-garbed Sword.
“Let’s go in and take a look!” said Ye Feng.
He waved his hand and unlocked a layer of the tower’s door, entered, and found that each layer was a large Cave Heaven World, spanning hundreds of miles.
Ye Feng activated the Heart of Wisdom.
With his profound comprehension, he continuously analyzed the Array Patterns hidden within the tower, and inscribed golden Array Patterns in the air.
One hour later.
Ye Feng looked at the golden Great Array in front of him, which was incredibly complex, containing tens of thousands of Array Patterns, and let out a sigh of relief.
“Finally, it’s completed,” said Ye Feng.
This Array was called “Five Radiance Demon Suppressing” and was a result of Ye Feng deducing and perfecting it from the Array Patterns within the damaged pagoda.
With the Array Diagram, a new Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Tower could be created.
“Sect Leader, is this the Array Diagram of the tower?” asked someone.
“No, this is the complete Array Diagram. Based on this diagram, we can craft the true Five Radiance Demon Suppressing Tower,” Ye Feng replied.
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Ye Feng and the others walked around inside the tower and discovered many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, as well as numerous Secret Techniques, which although not high in grade, were indeed suitable for the cultivation of the younger generation.
They soon exited the Demon-locking Tower.
Whoosh!
Just then, a powerful torrent surged into the sky over a hundred miles from the shore of the Central Mainland of the Green Mountain Realm.
Immediately after, thousands of Sea Demons launched an attack on the land.
“Sect Leader, these are Sea Clan members I’ve captured from the sea. They have extremely strong breeding capabilities. I’ve placed them in this sea area to occasionally launch attacks on land as a way of applying pressure to the creatures on land,” the Ancestor of the Green-garbed Sword explained.
Ye Feng nodded and said as he pointed to the land, “Someone’s coming, and it seems to be a group of youths all under the age of thirty… Eh, there’s even a Spirit Sea Realm among them, not bad at all!”
On land.
Dozens of young people flew with swords.
The person in the lead was a Green-robed Swordsman, stepping on an Upper Grade Spirit Sword, and flying towards the seaside at great speed.
“Senior Brother Han, slow down!” the dozens of young men and women called out from behind him.
“The Sea Demons are causing trouble again. I must get there as soon as possible, or countless creatures will suffer,” said the Green-robed Swordsman Han Yonghui before his speed surged dramatically.
He soon reached the seaside.
“Green Mountain Sword Technique!”
Han Yonghui unleashed the powerful atmosphere of the third layer of the Spirit Sea Realm and wielded his sword mightily to cast several sword shadows.
Behind the sword shadows followed several mountain phantoms, bringing with them immense power.
“Sect Leader, that’s Han Yonghui, the unparalleled genius of the Qing Shu Sword Sect; still so young, he’s reached the third layer of the Spirit Sea Realm,” the Ancestor of the Green-garbed Sword said with a smile.
