Chapter 3184: Leaving the Lower World
After returning to the Changyang clan and following some consideration, Jian Chen still ended up meeting with his parents Bi Yuntian and Changyang Ba. He wanted to bring the two of them to the Saints’ World.
After all, the cultivation environment in the Saints’ World was better. If they went to the Saints’ World, their strength would increase much more quickly.
In particular, if Bi Yuntian went to the Radiant Saint Hall, her strength would further increase. She might even become a Hallowed Saint Master.
“Xiang’er, I don’t think we’ll go to the Saints’ World. The Saints’ World can strengthen us further, but your father and I don’t want to become involved in the conflict. We instead prefer the peaceful life on the Tian Yuan Continent.” Bi Yuntian smiled kindly. She felt extremely satisfied. “These days without any worries is what we want.”
“If that’s the case, I won’t insist on it. However, I will definitely make you reach Godking when I return the next time, mother, father.” Jian Chen guaranteed it. This was nothing difficult to him. It was merely the matter of a Godking pill.
However, whether the true effects of Godking pills refined from high grade Godking grass was as impressive as the rumours dictated had yet to be proven. His trip to the Darkstar World would be the perfect opportunity to verify the effects of high grade Godking pills.
Under the circumstances that he was not completely sure high grade Godking pills did not have any side-effects at all, he would never feed it to anyone close to him.
After all, high grade Godking pills had never appeared in the history of the Darkstar World!
“Alright, alright, alright. Then I await your return.” Changyang Ba chuckled. He did not take Jian Chen’s words too seriously.
He had not been to the Saints’ World, but he had heard about how impressive Godkings were from Yang Lie and the others. At the very least, Godkings were a lofty existence in the eyes of Yang Lie, Guihai Yidao, and Feng Xiaotian.
It was at such a great height that he could not reach it simply when he wanted to.
As a result, Changyang Ba only treated what Jian Chen said as a joke.
In the glorious imperial palace of the Flame Empire, Bi Lian sat on the throne in a bad mood. She was filled with worry and a reluctance to part with this place.
She recalled how Jian Chen had said he would be taking her to the Saints’ World. It left her feeling conflicted and annoyed, leading to a series of sighs.
Suddenly, Jian Chen’s figure appeared before Bi Lian silently, just staring at her like that.
Bi Lian lifted her head slightly. Gazing at the mighty figure standing before her, she immediately became pained. She said pitifully, “Big brother, did you really mean what you said last time? Are you really going to take me to the Saints’ World?”
“You’ve kicked up such a huge, bloody storm on the Tian Yuan Continent. Even if it was out of good intentions, countless people have still died on the battlefield simply because of a decision you’ve made. Do you think it’s appropriate for you to remain here?” Jian Chen sighed gently. She was his younger sister after all. He did not have a lot of family, so he struggled to be stern with her.
“The people of the future and present rest on the people of the past. Big brother, if you really want to bring peace to the world, it’s unavoidable to conquer the world through war. The people who’ve died as a result will only be making the sacrifice to end this period of chaos.”
“They may have died, but their sacrifices will pave a brilliant path for the people of the future, and we’re close to being done now. If we give up at a time like this, it’s far too much of a pity.” Bi Lian was still staunch with her standpoint. She refused to relent and argued, “And I haven’t been alone on this. At the very least, the ancestors of the Pure Heart Pavilion and the Tyrant’s Blade School don’t believe I’m wrong.”
“Sigh, little sister, with my cultivation, both my experiences and insight are beyond what you can match. I understand the laws of survival in the world better than you. I understand this world better than you too. By conquering the world, you seem to have brought peace upon the world, but peace will only slowly erode away a person’s willpower and bury their talent and potential. Over long periods of time, the strength of the world will only become weaker and weaker.”
“You don’t have to say anything more. Let go of all of your authority and cultivate obediently in the Saints’ World. Look at you. With so many resources at your disposal, you’ve only reached Saint King after several centuries.” Jian Chen completely ignored Bi Lian’s objections and took her away forcefully, placing her in a divine hall that he carried with him.
In the end, Jian Chen visited the Forsaken Saints.
Whether it was the World of Forsaken Saints or the Forsaken Saints, they were all names they had given themselves. The meaning behind the name was they had been forsaken by the Saints’ World.
Jian Chen had no interest in studying the history of the Forsaken Saints. He directly visited the current Spiritking.
With the human sovereign of the past visiting him in person, the Spiritking was flattered. He immediately stood up and bowed with great respect.
Very soon, under Jian Chen’s indication, the Spiritking gathered all of the high-ranking members. Once they were all present, Jian Chen told them some news regarding the Spiritsages selectively.
The news was much more detailed and complete compared to the records passed down through history.
When these people learnt their race was a peak clan in the Saints’ World, they all experienced a great mix of emotions. There was excitement, eagerness, as well as a faint hint of sorrow.
“A senior of the Spiritsages is about to rise up, such that the Spiritsages will become even more glorious in the future. I’ll give you a choice right now. Will you go to the Saints’ World with me, or will you remain here?”
“If you go to the Saints’ World, I will arrange for some people to escort you to the Spiritsages,” Jian Chen said to everyone.
In the end, the Forsaken Saints chose to send a third of their people away with Jian Chen. It was only a third, but it was still the population of a world. It was obviously a huge number, measured in the hundreds of millions.
In the end, Jian Chen placed these people in a divine hall. Every single divine hall was like a world. The space inside was extremely large. Let alone a third of the people, it could even contain the entire population of the world and still have plenty of space remaining.
After settling the matters of the World of Forsaken Saints, Jian Chen formally bade farewell to the people of the Changyang clan, planning to leave the Tian Yuan Continent.
On that day, the Changyang clan had an assembly of experts. Renowned figures across the land came to see Jian Chen off.
With a smile, Jian Chen clasped his fist towards everyone. He made some small conversation with them before finally vanishing with Xiao Jin, Xiao Ling, and Shangguan Mu’er with a thought.
Beyond the Tian Yuan Continent, in the icy-cold and dark outer space, Xiao Ling enjoyed the several skewers of candied hawthorn. Xiao Jin carried a great basket filled with a dazzling array of snacks.
“Big brother Jian Chen, are we leaving here? Oh, I still like this place more, but the things in this world are so much worse compared to the Saints’ World,” Xiao Ling said with her mouth filled with candied hawthorn.
Jian Chen rubbed Xiao Ling’s head with affection. He smiled gently. “Xiao Ling, why don’t you stay in the divine hall with Xiao Jin for now? Once we return to the Cloud Plane, all of the good stuff there is free for you to eat.”
“Yeah, okay, okay! Master said he will come to get me in a hundred years. I will eat all the tasty food and visit all the fun places on the Cloud Plane in that time.” Xiao Ling was eager. Her innocent and pure little face became filled with anticipation as she bounded into a divine hall while pulling Xiao Jin along with her.
“Before we return to the Saints’ World, we need to find Xiao Bao first,” said Shangguan Mu’er. She stared straight at Jian Chen, giving off a sense of determination where she would not give up until she found him.
