Talisman Emperor

Chapter 1597 – Eastreach City

Swoosh!

A figure flickered ceaselessly and teleported through the starry sky.

Violethell Star, the place the Violethell Divine Sect resides.... Chen Xi silently pondered about all the information he possessed in relation to the Violethell Divine Sect.

After a short while, he couldn’t help but laugh. I’m heading to the Violethell Divine Sect this time merely for the sake of completing something entrusted to me, and I’m not going to battle. So, why think so much about it?

But right after that, Chen Xi’s brows knit together tightly. Where should I go once I’ve completed what Tie Kun entrusted me with?

Before Chen Xi came to the Ancient God Domain, Chen Xi actually possessed an extremely clear objective in his heart, and it was to find his parents before converging with the senior brothers and senior sisters of his sect.

Moreover, when Chen Lingjun and Zuoqiu Xue left all those years ago, they’d once told Chen Xi that so long as he took good care of the River Diagram fragments, then he would be able to rely on the clues provided by the River Diagram fragments to meet them once he entered the Ancient God Domain.

However, Chen Xi felt helpless because up until now, besides nine obscure and ancient characters, he wasn’t able to comprehend any clues from the River Diagram fragments.

Nine ancient characters? Chen Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration. The clues wouldn’t be hidden within them, right?

When he fused with the seventh and eighth River Diagram fragments, a mysterious diagram had floated up into appearance from the surface of the River Diagram fragments, and mysterious characters flickered on the diagram. Chen Xi had tried his very best yet was merely able to recognize nine ancient characters, and they were respectively ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’, ‘?’.

Chen Xi had tried to deduce the meaning of these characters, yet no matter how he organized them, these nine characters didn’t seem like a sentence at all. So, after a few years had passed, it caused him to practically forget this matter.

At this moment, when he recalled it, it allowed him to acutely capture a trace of profundity, and perhaps these ancient words represented the name of some areas in the Ancient God Domain!

But right after that, he shook his head because he had too little clues, and he was utterly unable to gain a deeper understanding.

There are over a thousand regions in the Ancient God Domain, and Snow Ink Region is merely one of them. Perhaps I ought to head to the most bustling and flourishing place in the Ancient God Domain to investigate. Even if I’m unable to find any clues, but during this process, I’d be able to inquire about the whereabouts of my senior brothers and senior sisters.... Chen Xi fell into deep thought. As far as he was concerned, if he was able to find those senior brothers and senior sisters of his, then they might be able to provide him with some guidance.

Since the Sovereign Sect is already so renowned in the Ancient God Domain, then I presume that Oracle Mountain and Nuwa’s Dao Palace aren’t inferior at all. In this way, so long as I gather sufficient information, I might really be able to meet my senior brothers and senior sisters. Chen Xi’s train of thought grew more and more clearer as he pondered about all of this. Right, the Ancient God Domain is so vast, and my efficiency will be limited in the end if I merely rely on myself to search. However, if I obtain the assistance of Oracle Mountain and Nuwa’s Dao Palace, then I’ll definitely be much more certain of success....

Chen Xi immediately decided that once he completed what Tie Kun had entrusted him with, he would start searching for clues about Oracle Mountain and Nuwa’s Dao Palace. Because if he did this, then he would even be able to avoid a great deal of the danger brought about by the Sovereign Sect.

After all, Chen Xi hadn’t forgotten the words Ye Yan said before she fled that day.

There are countless gods in the Ancient God Domain, and its boundlessly vast. The more flourishing a region is, the number of experts there would definitely be even greater. With my current cultivation, even though I’m able to be ranked at the 99th position on the Domain Enlightened Chart, I’m still a realm lower when compared to the Universe Enlightened Ancestral God Realm.... After he confirmed his objective, Chen Xi started to scrutinize himself. Once he had an objective, he naturally had to possess the ability to carry out this objective, and his own strength was the precondition to decide all of this.

In terms of the Sword Dao, I’ve already stepped foot into the Sword Emperor Realm, and if I want to improve in it, then I can only rely on gradual accumulation and tempering, and I’ll probably be unable to achieve any success in a short period of time.

In terms of my cultivation, I’ve just stepped into the Domain Enlightened Spirit God Realm, and this is a completely new cultivation realm. So, it’ll probably require a long amount of time and effort in order to be attained to perfection.

In terms of my Divine Dao, I’ve already stepped foot into the initial-stage, and I’m still quite a distance away from the advanced-stage. Moreover, cultivation in the Divine Dao can’t be accumulated by relying on time at all, and it depends on comprehension and fortuitous encounters. It’s too uncertain. In this way, I can’t spend too much effort on this aspect for now as well.

...

Chen Xi slowly analyzed himself, and he seemed to be extremely calm. If another Domain Enlightened Spirit God was present here and knew of the entire strength that Chen Xi possessed, that Domain Enlightened Spirit God would probably go mad with envy.

There was no other reason than because he was too outstanding!

In the Domain Enlightened Spirit God Realm, with the strength Chen Xi possessed now, he could absolutely be considered as a peerless genius. Most importantly, he’d just stepped foot into the Domain Enlightened Spirit God Realm yet had already ascended into the 99th position on the Domain Enlightened Chart. If news of this were to spread, then the entire Ancient God Domain would probably be stirred.

However, Chen Xi was obviously not satisfied by all of this.

Perhaps it was precisely because his requirements towards himself were too harsh that he’d established everything he possessed now, and there was no element of luck in all of this.

After thinking it over and over again, Chen Xi finally locked his sights onto improving the quality of the Talisman Armament and transforming his method of fighting.

The Talisman Armament’s current might was roughly a bit stronger than an ordinary Artificial Spirit Treasure, and in the World Enlightened True God Realm, it was sufficient to allow Chen Xi to full bring forth his extraordinary advantage in combat. However, after he advanced into the Domain Enlightened Spirit God Realm, the might of the Talisman Armament was already faintly showing signs of being unable to cope with Chen Xi’s strength.

Presently, Chen Xi was already clearly aware that the quality of Artificial Spirit Treasures was differentiated in an extremely strict manner as well. They were roughly divided into nine grades and three ranks.

So, first-grade, second-grade, and third-grade Artificial Spirit Treasures were addressed in general as low-rank Divine Artifacts; fourth-grade, fifth-grade, and sixth grade Artificial Spirit Treasures were addressed in general as mid-rank Divine Artifacts, whereas, seventh-grade, eighth grade, and ninth grade Artificial Spirit Treasures were addressed in general as high-rank Divine Artifacts.

Amongst them, the might of a ninth-grade high-rank Divine Artifact was naturally the strongest.

For example, Chen Xi’s Talisman Armament was barely a bit stronger than a third-grade low-rank Divine Artifacts, yet it was inferior in might to a fourth-grade mid-rank Divine Artifact.

Something worthy of mentioning was that when Divine Artifacts of different ranks were utilized in the hands of gods at varying cultivation realms, the might they were able to reveal was completely different as well.

For example, the World Enlightened True God Realm was sufficient to fully bring forth the might of low-rank Divine Artifacts. However, once World Enlightened True Gods utilized mid-rank Divine Artifacts, even though its might would be formidable, it was extremely difficult for them to bring forth its entire might.

Of course, this was only in comparison. If a World Enlightened True God utilized a mid-rank Divine Artifact, then even if the World Enlightened True God was only able to bring forth 70 or 80 percent of its might, it would be sufficient for that World Enlightened True God to crush another World Enlightened True God that was utilizing a low-rank Divine Artifact.

However, all of this was in terms of Divine Artifacts. There were too many aspects to consider in true battle like one’s cultivation, combat experience, cultivation in the Divine Dao.... Every single aspect similarly affected one’s combat strength.

Chen Xi presently intended to improve the Talisman Armament’s quality by a rank. In this way, the Talisman Armament’s might would be sufficient to catch up to and even surpass sixth-grade mid-rank Divine Artifacts. After all, it was a Talisman Armament, and it naturally had its own strength and uniqueness.

As for Natural Spirit Treasures, they weren’t divided by grades, and they were only divided by might.

Fortunately, Chen Xi possessed two extremely formidable Natural Spirit Treasures, and it allowed him to avoid falling into a passive position in battle because his Divine Artifacts were too weak.

Besides improving the quality of the Talisman Armament, Chen Xi placed most importance towards the problem of changing his method of fighting.

Changing his method of fighting didn’t meant that he intended to abandon the Sword Dao, Talisman Dao, and the various other techniques he utilized in battle in the past, and it was instead to change the method he utilized his Divine Energy and Divine Dao while commanding the Sword Dao and Talisman Dao!

All of this depended on the utilization of the Infinite Divine Talisman.

This mysterious and vast divine talisman resided at the center of the universe within Chen Xi’s body now, and it had become his core when he cultivated, commanded his Divine Energy, and utilized his Divine Dao Laws.

But up until now, his utilization of the Infinite Divine Talisman was extremely superficial, and even though the might he was able to bring forth was formidable, it was far from being able to completely bring forth his strength.

According to Chen Xi’s deduction, if he was able to allow the Infinite Divine Talisman to fully utilize the energy of the Divine Dao Laws of wind, lightning, space, and time while he teleported through space, then it would be able to raise the strength of his teleportation to its maximum extent.

For example, when he utilized his fiercest moved in the Sword Dao, the Five Element Annihilator, he could utilize the Infinite Divine Talisman to form the Divine Dao of Metal. In this way, the might it revealed would at least be around 10% stronger than it was in the past!

Even though it was only 10%, it was usually able to decide the fate of both parties when one was going against an equally matched opponent.

In short, based on the varying requirements in battle and according to the different Divine Dao Laws that he possessed, he could utilize the Infinite Divine Talisman as a link to match them together, and he would be entirely capable of bringing forth an even more formidable strength!

The reason Chen Xi wanted to carry out such tests was entirely because he possessed the prerequisites. Because he’d grasped more than 10 different Divine Dao Laws, and he even possessed the Infinite Divine Talisman and Talisman Dao to command them. So, he was able to utilize these Divine Dao Laws at will.

On the other hand, other gods had mostly grasped merely a single Divine Dao Law. Moreover, even if they’d grasped even more Divine Dao Laws, they didn’t possess the Infinite Divine Talisman to command these Divine Dao Laws, so unlike Chen Xi, it was utterly impossible for them to change the way they fought at will.

...

All along the way as he flew through the starry sky, Chen Xi had been constantly carrying out deductions related to the improvement of the Talisman Armament’s quality and changing his method of battle, so he’d completely not noticed the passage of time.

Six hours later, a star that emanated violet energy appeared far away in his field of vision, and it caused Chen Xi to instantly awaken from his deep thought.

Violethell Star!

Chen Xi compared it to the Star Atlas, and he finally confirmed that this was the star where the Violethell Divine Sect resided.

Without any hesitation, Chen Xi’s figure flashed, and he’d transformed into the appearance of an ordinary young man before descending swiftly onto Violethell Star.

Violethell Star was extremely vast, and it was like a large world. At the very least, it was much larger than the Dark Reverie in the three dimensions. Cities were numerous like trees in a forest on Violethell Star, and it was densely covered in divine mountains. Moreover, the figures of gods could be seen all over, and it seemed to be extremely flourishing and bustling.

After the time for an incense stick to burn.

Eastreach City.

Chen Xi placed his hands behind his back as he walked slowly onto the bustling streets of the city. His gaze swept towards the distance, and he was able to clearly notice a divine mountain that shot directly into the clouds and was covered in overflowing violet radiance standing towering extremely far away in the distance.

The mountain was called Violethell.

Obviously, it was where the Violethell Divine Sect resided.

After so many years have passed, I wonder if Tie Yunping is still in Violethell Divine Sect now.... Chen Xi seemed to be lost in thought.
