Chapter 1164: Sky Seal Jade Plate
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Excitement. The Nineteenth Prince of Sacred Emperor Palace was very excited. The reason for this excitement was the thing he was pursuing.
“Sky Seal Jade Plate!” He had actually encountered a Sky Seal Jade Plate!
Sky Seal Jade Plates were credentials for entering the core region of Boundless Taixu. Anyone that could enter the core region of Boundless Taixu could obtain benefits that were 10 or 100 times greater than those of the outer regions.
In the past, the Sky Seal Jade Plates had always been in the hands of martialists from the Taixu Sect or the Dakongfan Sect. Now, he’d actually managed to encounter the Sky Seal Jade Plate.
Even though the Sky Seal Jade Plate was too fast for him, he wasn’t going to give up.
That Sky Seal Jade Plate belonged to him!
Chase, chase, chase!
After chasing it for a long while, the Nineteenth Prince finally saw hope of success. The Sky Seal Jade Plate seemed like it had slowed down considerably.
This change surprised the Nineteenth Prince as he whistled in excitement and executed a forbidden technique in the direction of the Sky Seal Jade Plate.
There were no sky laws or great path laws in Boundless Taixu. All the great path nomological laws he controlled were also suppressed by the forces within Boundless Taixu.
Hence, most people would use powers that stemmed from their own origin source.
The Nineteenth Prince, who had managed to rush over to the Sky Seal Jade Plate, immediately grabbed for it when it was within reach.
A sense of thrill and ecstasy filled his mind as he grabbed onto the Sky Seal Jade Plate.
He had finally obtained the Sky Seal Jade Plate!
The Nineteenth Prince was prepared to store the Sky Seal Jade Plate in his stash, but before he could do so, he suddenly felt a force strike him heavily on the head.
He felt dizzy all of a sudden and fainted.
After an indefinite amount of time, the Nineteenth Prince finally woke up. He instinctively stretched out his hand to feel his head before realizing that there was a huge bump on it.
He had definitely been hit by someone!
Despite the pain he felt, the Nineteenth Prince hurriedly searched his surroundings for the Sky Seal Jade Plate.
Unfortunately, while everything else remained the same, he couldn’t find the Sky Seal Jade Plate that he had been longing for. How could the Nineteenth Prince not be aware that his loot had already been taken by somebody?
Who was it? Who could have silently beaten him up and snatched the Sky Seal Jade Plate that had been right before him?
The Nineteenth Prince pondered this hard. As the son of the Sacred Emperor, he might not necessarily inherit the throne but he had never suffered such a humiliation before in his life.
He had been knocked unconscious when the greatest opportunity he had ever faced upon entering Boundless Taixu had been right in front of him.
How could this be tolerated?
He was furious about the bump on his head, but for unknown reasons, he could not make it go away despite using all sorts of methods. It seemed as if the bump had become a part of his body.
“No matter who did it, I will definitely take revenge!” the Nineteenth Prince said through gritted teeth.
Luo Yunyang wasn’t very concerned about what the Nineteenth Prince was thinking. After snatching the Sky Seal Jade Plate, he sensed that this jade plate had a rather mysterious connection to a certain space.
However, this connection was so vague that Luo Yunyang couldn’t find the space even if he focused all his spirit consciousness on the connection.
Thanks to the records in the repository, Luo Yunyang knew that this Sky Seal Jade Plate was a token to enter Boundless Palace.
Boundless Palace was indeed the final battleground where the Sacred Venerate had fought the ten strongest supreme powerhouses.
The final victor had been, of course, the Sacred Venerate. None of the ten supreme powerhouses had been able to leave Boundless Palace.
In the past, the powerhouses that had obtained the greatest opportunity after entering Boundless Taixu had all come from Boundless Palace.
Luo Yunyang had also been searching for the Sky Seal Jade Plate along the way. However, according to the records in the repository, the only way of obtaining a Sky Seal Jade Plate was by getting lucky.
Luo Yunyang realized that he had indeed been quite lucky to obtain the Sky Seal Jade Plate of the Nineteenth Prince.
One Sky Seal Jade Plate could allow only one person to enter Boundless Palace. However, one Sky Seal Jade Plate was enough for a powerhouse who wished to enter Boundless Palace.
With the Sky Seal Jade Plate in his bag, Luo Yunyang continued to search leisurely for all sorts of sky law fragments. Time passed without him realizing it. Just as Luo Yunyang got bored of collecting fragments, he saw a massive palace hall in front of him.
Or rather, it was a massive dilapidated palace hall.
The main door of the palace hall was no longer there, and the pillars that had supported the structure were lying around everywhere. Some parts of the walls had turned into powder.
Such a palace hall should actually be called a pile of ruins.
However, it was the first palace hall Luo Yunyang had encountered. Hence, he hurriedly entered it. Before he could walk in, he realized a dozen or so people had gathered inside the palace hall.
Only a few dozen martialists had entered Boundless Taixu. Thus, it could be said that more than half of them were already inside the palace.
Luo Yunyang recognized some of the members of the group. For example, he saw Huang Yue, the tall scrawny man, and other disciples of the Taixu Sect. There were also some disciples from the Dakongfen Sect that Luo Yunyang recognized but could not name, as well as a lone ranger.
They stood in the middle of the palace hall, staring at a broken sword that was stuck in the throne of the palace.
Although only half of the broken sword was there, the malicious aura exuded by it still sent chills down the spine of anyone that saw it.
More importantly, there were seven types of sky laws within the light illuminating the broken sword.
Although the sword was broken in two and there were flaws in the seven sky laws, its might should not be underestimated.
While Luo Yunyang sized up these people, some of them also glanced at him. After all, if an additional person joined the fray for the treasure, they would be affected.
Huang Yue and the other Taixu Sect disciples were disappointed when they saw that it was Luo Yunyang who had come. After all, they would rather it had been Zheng Rulai. In that case, the battle would have basically been a done deal.
Unfortunately, Luo Yunyang had arrived, which meant that the overall strength of the Taixu Sect would not increase significantly.
The martialists of the Dakongfan Sect sighed in relief. Although this wasn’t one of their own, they knew how insignificant Luo Yunyang was so they weren’t overly concerned.
“Junior Sister Huang Yue, the name of this sword is Quaking Chastise and it is our sect’s fate. After all, it belongs to a friend of the Dakongfan Sect’s ancestral master. We are going to bring it back,” said a graceful, handsome disciple of the Dakongfan Sect, who had a face that was as pure as white jade.
This man’s demeanor was elegant, but his tone was unquestionable.
Huang Yue scoffed, “You’re right. I heard that the master of this broken sword was killed by your ancestral master. It must be fate!”
That man laughed loudly in response. “Junior Sister Huang Yue, it’s best if you don’t talk about our ancestral master. Otherwise, he might make you shut your mouth for the rest of your life if he gets angry.”
Huang Yue naturally wasn’t someone who got easily frightened. Thus, she snapped, “Senior Brother Shengyu, I think we better see who is more capable of snagging that treasure.”
“That seems fair. We’ll see who is better then.” The pale man shot a glance at Luo Yunyang before adding, “Each of us has five disciples in this palace hall. Let’s have a battle then. The side that wins will get this Quaking Chastise, alright?”
Shengyu’s cultivation was at the peak Taichu Yuan Venerate. While he said that, a faint incorporeal boundary appeared behind him. This boundary was overbearing, and its power did not seem inferior to a Taiyi Yuan Venerate’s power.
The lone rangers were angered upon hearing what Shengyu said. They came from sects that were not comparable to the Taixu Sect or the Dakongfan Sect.
Naturally, their thirst for that supreme treasure was much stronger than the thirst of the two major sects. This Quaking Chastise was a dream treasure for many of these people.
However, they weren’t going to join the fight at all.
“Senior Brother Shengyu is right.” Although Huang Yue was a woman, her decisiveness was not inferior to any man’s.
After Yuan Venerate Shengyu took a stand, she glared at the martialists that were not from the two great sects. “This palace hall was discovered by our sects. You can all leave now.”
“Let’s go!” a martialist told his companion.
Although they weren’t weak, they were still not comparable to the disciples of the two great Sects. Furthermore, the numbers were on their side so it would be disastrous for them if the two great sects teamed up to deal with them if they objected.
Now that someone had taken the lead, it did not take very long before all the lone martialists that did not belong to the two great sects left. There were many more opportunities in Boundless Taixu, and since they couldn’t beat the two great sects, why would they continue wasting time here?
“Senior Brother Shengyu, having five separate battles is too troublesome. How about we each send one person out and decide who gets the Quaking Chastise?” Yuan Venerate Huang Yue finally said after seeing the last of the other martialists leave.
Yuan Venerate Shengyue glanced at Luo Yunyang again before commenting, “Junior Sister, are you thinking that you’ll lose?”
“Senior Brother Shengyu, you clearly know that this is unfair!” Huang Yue shot a cold glance at Luo Yunyang and added, “We can settle this with four battles or just one. I will never agree to having five battles.”
Yuan Venerate Shengyu guffawed, “Junior Sister, you’re trying to take advantage of the Dakongfan Sect, aren’t you? How about this? Let’s do what you suggested and have just one battle to decide who is going to walk away with the Quaking Chastise.”
“Each side has five people. Both of us will draw lots to see who shall battle. How about that, Junior Sister?”
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue scoffed, “Fine by me. I don’t believe that he will be chosen when there are five of us!”
