“It’s very difficult to store Stainless Qi. Once it’s captured, you better use it quickly, or its effects will greatly diminish even in the sacred land.” Ye Qingyun reminded Jian Chen. Stainless Qi was extremely special. It was only produced in the Observance Heaven City and could not even be taken out of the city. Once it was removed, Stainless Qi would vanish.

Jian Chen nodded to express his understanding.

Under their combined efforts, the jade bottle finally collected its second strand of Stainless Qi after twenty-five years. The strand of Stainless Qi belonged to Jian Chen.

Jian Chen did not hesitate at all. Immediately, he removed the Stainless Qi from the jade bottle. Afterwards, it turned into a wisp of white mist and vanished into his forehead.

From the outside, it seemed like Jian Chen had already absorbed the Stainless Qi, but that was not the case. After it entered his soul, he controlled the Stainless Qi to enter the Primeval Divine Hall with his soul as a bridge.

He was not obtaining Stainless Qi for himself. Instead, he was using it to accelerate the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall’s awakening.

After absorbing the strand of Stainless Qi, Jian Chen paid close attention to any response from the Primeval Divine Hall. He became more and more eager.

Unfortunately, he observed it for a very long time but nothing happened. The artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall still did not awaken.

“Looks like a single strand of Stainless Qi is not enough. I need more Stainless Qi,” Jian Chen thought. Fortunately, he had the assistance of Ye Qingyun’s jade bottle. Otherwise, if he only relied on the sacred land’s natural production rate, he would probably struggle to collect a substantial amount even if he waited for another ten thousand years.

Time trickled by silently. Jian Chen remained in the sacred land for longer and longer. Centuries passed one after another.

But fortunately, they could exchange for cultivation time in the sacred land with resources. Both he and Ye Qingyun had offered a large number of resources to the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City, so they had sufficient cultivation time.

Basically with each century, Jian Chen would obtain four or five strands of Stainless Qi. He merged all of the Stainless Qi into the Primeval Divine Hall.

By the fourth century of working with Ye Qingyun, Jian Chen had already obtained a total of nineteen strands of Stainless Qi.

After absorbing so much Stainless Qi, the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall still did not awaken, but Jian Chen could clearly sense some changes in it.

He could vaguely sense that the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall was no longer far off from awakening.

As for Ye Qingyun, the presence he gave off gradually became profound like he was wrapped in the power of the ways. After absorbing so much Stainless Qi, his soul seemed to have elevated. His comprehension of the ways grew deeper; he was getting closer and closer to the realm of Immortal Exalt.

At this moment, another strand of Stainless Qi emerged from a space below, but as soon it appeared, an Immortal Emperor tailed closely behind it, basically chasing the Stainless Qi up to the eighth floor.

He was a Thousand Immortal General of the Observance Heaven City!

As soon as he entered the eighth floor, he witnessed the Stainless Qi diving into the formation set up by Ye Qingyun.

“No wonder the frequency of Stainless Qi appearing these years has been extremely irregular, and they all flee upwards every single time. Sure enough, something is up.” As soon as the Immortal Emperor saw the formation, he immediately understood everything, and his eyes soon shone with excitement and interest. With a flash, he arrived before the formation and said, “Only Chang Yang and Ye Qingyun have come up to the eighth floor. Which one of the two of you is hiding in here?”

Before he even finished what he was saying, the Immortal Emperor took action, directly launching a palm strike towards the formation.

The formation’s ability to block out senses of the soul was very powerful, so even Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts struggled to peer through it. As a result, he had to destroy the formation if he wanted to see what was going on inside.

However, right when his hand was about to touch the formation, a strand of laws of the five elements and a strand of the Laws of the Sword mixed in with Chaotic Force suddenly shot out, colliding with the Immortal Emperor’s hand.

Boom!

With a great rumble, the Immortal Emperor was repelled by several steps by the two surprise attacks.

Right when they struck, Ye Qingyun immediately stowed the formation away. The white jade bottle in his hand vanished as well.

“Hmm? You’re actually both here?” The Immortal Emperor was surprised. A hint of concealed fear flashed through his gaze towards Jian Chen, but it soon vanished. He snickered as he said, “Chang Yang, Ye Qingyun, you’re stealing all the Stainless Qi while you hide here. That’s not very nice of you.”

“Stainless Qi goes to those who are destined to possess it. There is no such thing as stealing.” Ye Qingyun corrected him, but he also seemed to recognise who the person was, leaving him rather stern.

The Immortal Emperor did not dispute that. He grinned and said, “Give me ten strands of Stainless Qi, and I’ll leave immediately. I’ll keep this a secret too. Or you can let me join you. Otherwise, it won’t just be me who knows about this.”

Ye Qingyun frowned and communicated to Jian Chen, “Fellow Chang Yang, this person comes from rather significant origins. The organisation behind him has several Immortal Exalts, and one of them is even a late Immortal Exalt. Our Ye family cannot afford to provoke him.”

“We can’t let any more people join us, or we’ll only end up with fewer and fewer Stainless Qi if more people end up joining,” Jian Chen also communicated secretly before directly taking action. First, he used the undefendable Shadowless Lifetaking Strike to attack him before teleporting in front of him with the Laws of Space. He planted a hand on his shoulder firmly as an Immortal-destroying Thunder silently appeared in his other hand.

He had obtained the Immortal-destroying Thunder after killing enemies on the Grand Sovereign Heaven. It was forged by the tribulation lightning of Immortal Exalts. It was so powerful that it could even heavily injure Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors.

If several were detonated at the same time, they could even kill Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors instantly.

In the past, when he contended for the Thousand Immortal Emperor’s post, he was unable to make use of external objects like Immortal-destroying Thunders due to the rules, but there were no such rules in the sacred land of the Observance Heaven City.

The sacred land was the only place where fighting was freely allowed apart from the special battlefields.

As a result, Jian Chen detonated the Immortal-destroying Thunder without any hesitation.

The Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor clearly sensed the threat of the Immortal-destroying Thunder as well. His eyes narrowed. He wanted to escape immediately, but Jian Chen had gripped his shoulder firmly. He had absolutely no time to break free.

Boom!

In the next moment, an earth-shaking rumble erupted, and the devastating power of the Immortal-destroying Thunder was released without any restraint. Fire and lightning engulfed both of them simultaneously.

Within the lightning and fire, even Jian Chen’s Chaotic Body stood no chance. His skin erupted.

However, with the Source of Life around, his injuries healed the moment they appeared.

However, the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt who he dragged into the lighting and fire did not recover so quickly. The high quality god artifact armour on him lasted for only a few seconds before falling to the lightning and fire.

A few seconds later, the power of the Immortal-destroying Thunder gradually declined. Jian Chen was still unscathed, but the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor was pale-white and feeble. He was heavily injured.

“Chang Yang, y-you…” Looking at how Jian Chen was unscathed, he was both shocked and furious.
