Chapter 1339 - Inheritance of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda!

On the altar, Xuan Luo and Mo Xin’s faces were pale. They never expected that the Pagoda Ancestor would have such a great impression of Mu Chen. Even after knowing that Mu Chen and the Ancient Buddha Clan didn’t have a good relationship, he still decided to hand the Eight-Divisional Pagoda to Mu Chen.

“Ancestor!” The two of them persisted in trying their luck.

“This old man has already decided.” However, the Pagoda Ancestor waved his hand with a decisive voice and turned to look at the two of them. “The two of you can go back and tell the Elders of today. The Ancient Buddha Clan remains until now because of our talents. However, you guys have been too much of a fossil. If this continues, the Ancient Buddha Clan will only face a decline!”

His voice sounded solemn. Mu Chen and his mother being deemed as sinners had left this old man furious.

Xuan Luo and Mo Xin did not dare to speak after being reprimanded. Both of them lowered their heads with jealousy and reluctance flashing in their eyes.

They never expected that the sinner in their eyes would be the biggest winner in this trip to the Primordial Sacred Abyss. They, who should be the focus of attention, were dim in Mu Chen’s face.

“Mu Chen, follow this old man to receive the inheritance.” the Pagoda Ancestor no longer bothered with the two of them and looked at Mu Chen before waving his hand. Then, the two of them disappeared.

Along with their disappearance, Xuan Luo and Mo Xin looked at each other with dark expressions.

“You’re letting him receive the inheritance?” Mo Xin asked in a sinister voice.

After a brief silence, Xuan Luo snickered, “A sinner is also worthy of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda? Since the Ancestor has decided, let him have it, then.

“But the Ancestor won’t be deciding if he can bring the Eight-Divisional Pagoda out of the Sacred Abyss Continent…” As he spoke, a cold light flickered in his eyes.

Mo Xin was stunned before he asked, “You’re saying…?”

Xuan Luo coldly replied, “You think that Elder Hei Guang and Mo Yin will watch the Eight-Divisional Pagoda fall into Mu Chen’s hands? When they know about this information, the two of them will even temporarily toss the Grand Elder’s order aside.”

Mo Xin slightly nodded his head. Indeed, if Elder Hei Guang and Mo Yin made a move, Mu Chen would surely not be able to escape from the pursuit of two Heavenly Sovereigns.

“Let him rejoice for the moment…”



When spiritual light disappeared before Mu Chen, his surroundings changed. He seemed to be inside a pagoda, with ancient drawings on the mottled walls of the pagoda that emanated an ancient aura around this region.

“This is?” Mu Chen looked at the Pagoda Ancestor while sensing a familiar fluctuation.

“This is my pagoda.” The Pagoda Ancestor smiled and said with some reminiscence, “But along with my fall, the pagoda has also lost its lustre and has been gradually damaged over time.”

Mu Chen nodded his head. But even if this pagoda was starting to be damaged, he could still feel an indescribable aura that left him fearful.

The Pagoda Ancestor’s will sat in the pagoda and smiled towards Mu Chen. “Do you know the origin of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda?”

Mu Chen shook his head. He only knew that this Eight-Divisional Pagoda was one of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities with endless might. As for the rest, he was unfamiliar with it.

When the Pagoda Ancestor saw this, he wasn’t too bothered and explained, “This Peerless Divine Ability is something that this old man created when the Fiend Clans invaded the Great Thousand World.

“This old man has slaughtered countless demons, and sealed ten-odd Monarchs in my pagoda without lacking of Monarchs equivalent to the Immortal Heavenly Sovereign Realm.”

Mu Chen couldn’t help smacking his lips. Sealing ten-odd Monarchs, that was a terrifying achievement. After all, that was equivalent to ten-odd Heavenly Sovereigns…

“It was precisely because I have sealed too many Monarchs; it caused my pagoda to be unstable. But an idea came to me, and I refined them into guardians of the pagoda…”

Mu Chen was shocked once again. Refining Monarchs into guardians? It’s undoubtedly not an easy task to erase the will of those Monarch and refine them into puppets. Generally speaking, the puppets would be weakened through the process. But if that wasn’t the case, then the Eight-Divisional Pagoda also wouldn’t be able to be one of the 36 Peerless Divine Abilities.

“This old man naturally knows about that. I have refined them into guardians and imprint them onto my pagoda. In this manner, they have been linked with myself, and through a secret technique to refine them, I managed to preserve their strength to the greatest degree.” The Pagoda Ancestor said with pride.

Mu Chen sighed in admiration. The Pagoda Ancestor was truly worthy of being one of the pinnacle experts of the Great Thousand World. His means were truly ingenious.

“But it is a pity that the chance of failing was too high. Out of those Monarchs, I only managed to succeed in refining three of them. But making use of the war, I went on a rampage to refine Monarchs, and a year before my fall, I managed to create the Eight-Divisional Pagoda.” The Pagoda Ancestor sighed.

Mu Chen couldn’t help wiping his sweat upon hearing that. Succeeding in only three out of ten-odd Monarchs, the chance of failing was really great. After all, Monarchs weren’t cabbages that could be found anywhere. They’re existence was comparable to a Heavenly Sovereign, so one could imagine how insane the Pagoda Ancestor was when he went around capturing Monarchs.

It’s no wonder why no one managed to form the Eight-Divisional Pagoda again, since the resources required for it were really tough. After all, they couldn't use Heavenly Sovereigns in the Great Thousand World as materials, since the Great Thousand World wouldn’t allow it if they knew about it.

Mu Chen bitterly smiled upon hearing that. If that’s the case, what was the use of him knowing how to cultivate the Eight-Divisional Pagoda?

Seeing his expression, the Pagoda Ancestor smiled. “The Eight-Divisional Pagoda is precious not because of its cultivation technique, but because of the ability itself.”

After that, Mu Chen saw the Pagoda Ancestor raise his hand and the damaged pagoda started to tremble. After that, cracks appeared on the walls of the pagoda before a shattering sound rang out and eight crimson beams flew from the walls.

The eight crimson beams revolved around the Pagoda Ancestor, which Mu Chen could clearly see that those were pearls were engraved with sinister and ferocious patterns on them.

Mu Chen merely glanced at those crimson pearls and felt his blood boiling with killing intent surging in his heart.

Suddenly, divine light blossomed from the Divine Pagoda in Mu Chen’s heart, expelling the killing intent and allowed him to restore his clarity.

When Mu Chen recovered, he couldn’t help but take a step back and stared at the eight crimson pearls with fear. Those things were really sinister, and if these pearls fell in the hands of ordinary people, they would definitely be turned into a demon that knew how to slaughter instantly.

“This is the core of the Eight-Divisional Pagoda… the Pagoda Pearls.” The Pagoda Ancestor pointed at the eight crimson pearls and smiled before waving his hand and a crimson lustre burst out from the eight pearls before forming into eight colossal figures.

The eight colossal figures were roughly a hundred feet in size with sinister expressions. They looked like the incarnation of asura… and all of them possessed a terrifying pressure on them.

Looking at the eight giants, Mu Chen suddenly figured it out and said, “They’re the Eight-Divisional Pagoda?”

The Pagoda Ancestor smiled.

“So that’s the case…” Mu Chen exclaimed. He understood that rather than saying that the Eight-Divisional Pagoda was a Peerless Divine Ability, it was more similar to a Peerless Saint Artifact. But they did not need to be cultivated, only inherited through the eight pearls to possess the Eight-Divisional Pagoda!

The Eight-Divisional Pagoda was precious, not because of its cultivation technique, but the Pagoda Pearls refined from numerous Monarchs.

“Back then, when I managed to refine the eight Pagoda Pearls, it was already by great luck. I believe that if I were to try again, I’m afraid I might not even be able to refine them again.” The Pagoda Ancestor sighed.

Mu Chen nodded his head. Trying to refine Monarchs into guardians surely wasn’t easy, since there were too many factors of luck…

“But the materials are all Monarchs. So if an ordinary person got tainted by the ominous aura, even an ordinary Heavenly Sovereign would have his heart consumed.” As he spoke, the Pagoda Ancestor looked gratified while looking at Mu Chen. “But fortunately, you possess the Divine Pagoda. With it protecting you, the ominous aura won’t be able to consume your heart.”

“As your strength grows, the Eight-Divisional Pagoda’s might will also grow. They cannot be cultivated, so every single time it's used in battle, it will consume a huge amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, which you have to be prepared for it.” The Pagoda Ancestor reminded.

“Sovereign Spiritual Liquid again?” Mu Chen instantly felt his head swelling. He already had a bottomless pit for Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, the Black Dragon Army. He never expected to have another heavy eater here…

He could imagine that the amount that this Eight-Divisional Pagoda could consume was at least in the tens of millions.

“Furthermore…” The Pagoda Ancestor’s face briefly paused before his face turned solemn. “If your strength is insufficient, you cannot forcefully activate it. After all, they’re Monarchs, and even if they have been cultivated, their ferocity is something in their blood and flesh. The moment you lose control of them, they will devour you instead!”

Mu Chen solemnly nodded his head. It looked like the Eight-Divisional Pagoda was a double-edged sword.

“Since that’s the case…” Looking at Mu Chen, the Pagoda Ancestor raised his hand and the eight crimson pearls slowly revolved. “Are you ready to inherit the Eight-Divisional Pagoda?”
