Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3638: Mysterious Jade Bottle

Jian Chen sat on the only stone pillar on the ninth floor with his eyebrows furrowed in thought.

“Stainless Qi is so difficult to capture, yet it actively left the ninth floor and went to the eighth floor, easily obtained by Ye Qingyun. Don’t tell me Ye Qingyun possesses a treasure that can easily collect Stainless Qi? Or some kind of secret technique,” As soon as he thought of this possibility, his heart immediately sank.

“I came to the Observance Heaven City exactly because of Stainless Qi. If the Stainless Qi is all collected by Ye Qingyun, wouldn’t that leave me with nothing?” Jian Chen’s face gradually became ugly. This matter directly influenced the fate of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. He could not afford any carelessness.

However, after thinking about it, he decided that he would observe a little more before coming to a decision.

Afterwards, Jian Chen continued to wait on the ninth floor for a strand of Stainless Qi to appear.

In the blink of an eye, three decades passed.

On the fourth floor of the sacred land, in the centre where the six giant stone pillars stood, there were the five commanders of the Observance Heaven City and an Immortal Emperor.

Compared to how quiet the eighth and ninth floors were, the fourth floor was much livelier. Apart from the six experts on the stone pillars, there were also numerous Immortal Emperors, Immortal Monarchs, and even Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals scattered in the surroundings. All of them meditated and cultivated. They did not hold any particularly high hopes of obtaining Stainless Qi.

At this moment, the five Immortal Exalts on the stone pillars opened their eyes at the same time. Their eyes shone with a strange colour as they all looked up.

A strand of Stainless Qi silently appeared where they were staring. The unique presence it radiated with filled the entire space, alerting everyone.

“Stainless Qi. It’s Stainless Qi.”

“Competing for the Stainless Qi completely comes down to luck. Instead, strength is not an important factor. I am in charge of my own fate. I have been exceptional since a young age, and I have been bestowed with tremendous fortune. Even the ancestor in my clan has shown me some admiration. This strand of Stainless Qi will definitely belong to me.”

“Remember, as soon as you obtain the Stainless Qi, merge it with your soul immediately, just in case the Immortal Exalts steal it.”

“I may have already grown aloof, but when Stainless Qi actually appears, I have to put in some effort regardless.”

......

…

When the Stainless Qi appeared, the eyes of these people who originally had no hopes of obtaining Stainless Qi immediately began to burn brightly. All of them were reinvigorated as their eyes shone brightly, remaining where they were and waiting for the Stainless Qi to come to them.

Even Immortal Exalts could not necessarily capture Stainless Qi. If they were lucky, it would come to find them. Even Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals could obtain it just by staying put. Everyone held onto a ray of hope.

However, the ray of hope was extremely obscure. Despite that, no one wanted to give up on it even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousandth chance.

At the same time, the five Immortal Exalts seated on the stone pillars moved as well. The five of them all appeared before the Stainless Qi, using their abilities to compete for it.

The sound of rumbling thunder immediately erupted in the sky. As the five Immortal Exalts competed, they also intercepted and obstructed one another. The powerful energy clashed together, kicking off a terrifying storm of energy.

However, despite their exceptional techniques, they were unable to trap the Stainless Qi. The Stainless Qi left their encirclement with a flash, appearing several tens of thousand kilometres away.

The five Immortal Exalts followed closely afterwards. Right when they were about to try and capture it, the Stainless Qi suddenly appeared at the entrance to the fifth floor. Afterwards, with a flash, it vanished from the fourth floor.

“I-it actually went to the fifth floor…”

That sight surprised Immortal Exalt Wei Qi, Immortal Exalt Ji Yun, Immortal Exalt Sha Xue, the Truepeer Immortal Exalt, and Immortal Exalt Ye Beifeng.

They knew that Stainless Qi would sometimes appear and sometimes vanish. It could randomly appear on any floor, but this was the first time they had seen it venture to other floors through the passageways. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

Ye Beifeng stared firmly in the direction that the Stainless Qi had vanished into. He was surprised and uncertain. He thought, “The behaviour of the Stainless Qi today is so abnormal. Don’t tell me it’s due to the jade bottle in Qingyun’s possession?

With the Stainless Qi gone, the Immortal Exalts settled down very quickly. Clearly, they had already grown accustomed to Stainless Qi slipping away right under their noses.

The other immortals gathered on the fourth floor all sighed gently. With some disappointment, they sat back down and started cultivating again.

There were only around a dozen people on the fifth floor. They were all Immortal Emperors and Immortal Monarchs.

When the strand of Stainless Qi appeared on the fifth floor, it also led to a contest among everyone present, but in the end, the Stainless Qi wandered around on the fifth floor for a bit before entering the sixth and seventh floors.

In the end, as if the Stainless Qi was under some fatal attraction, it directly climbed up from the fourth floor to the eighth floor before throwing itself into Ye Qingyun’s formation.

Inside the formation, Ye Qingyun watched as the Stainless Qi dove into the jade bottle in his hands, which immediately left him overjoyed.

Without any hesitation, he immediately absorbed the Stainless Qi.

Anyone could compete for the Stainless Qi in the space of the sacred land. Without sufficient strength, it could be stolen even after he obtained it, so he absorbed both strands of Stainless Qi that had been sucked in by the jade bottle immediately. He did not save it for later.

“The jade bottle truly is a rare treasure. It can even draw over Stainless Qi.” Ye Qingyun’s eyes shone with undisguised excitement as if he could see the hope of him reaching Immortal Exalt.

Afterwards, he did not stop. He continued to channel his energy into the jade bottle, activating its powers at full strength.

With Ye Qingyun’s increased input, the profound patterns on the jade bottle immediately became even more dazzling as if it had been endowed with life, outlining various profound diagrams on its surface.

Suddenly, Ye Qingyun’s eyes narrowed. He focused on the jade bottle and studied it closely.

He discovered that after the patterns reached its maximum brightness, a second layer of patterns actually appeared beneath the first layer.

The second layer of patterns was even denser. Compared to the first layer, the second was even more mysterious.

That immediately reinvigorated Ye Qingyun. His clothes began to flutter as tremendous amounts of energy were poured into the jade bottle furiously. At that moment, his output became even greater.

However, no matter how he increased his output, the patterns from the second layer refused to budge. His energy was unable to merge with the second layer of patterns.

“The second layer of patterns is unlike the first. What it requires should be energy of a higher level. It probably requires the energy of an Immortal Exalt.” With Ye Qingyun’s experiences and knowledge, he found the reason very soon, but he still did not give up. He enveloped the jade bottle with the senses of his soul and closely studied the second layer of patterns.

A while later, he seemed to discover something. He shuddered inside. He was shocked. He cried out, “The second layer of patterns a-a-actually bears the presence of Chaotic Force…”
