Chapter 247: Holy Weapon! Demon Emperor Set! Great Dao Origin!

The first spatial ring Chen Xuan checked contained the items he had found in the treasure warehouse of the Boundless Ocean Sect.

Among them were countless techniques.

There were cultivation techniques, such as the Yin-Yang Technique, as well as techniques for improving combat prowess, such as the Dragon-Phoenix Body and the Kunpeng Art.

For the time being, Chen Xuan left these things aside.

There were simply too many of them. He knew that he would have to go through them carefully before he had any chance of finding something truly valuable.

That would have to wait until later.

With that in mind, Chen Xuan focused on the most important treasures within the Boundless Ocean Sect’s collection.

One of these was a single droplet of water.

The Boundless Water. The same Boundless Water that had previously threatened him.

Even now, Chen Xuan could sense the terrifying power contained within that tiny droplet.

It looked completely ordinary.

Yet, beneath that ordinary appearance was an astonishing amount of energy.

Chen Xuan didn’t underestimate it.

After all, this was the very treasure that had shattered his Kunpeng Art whirlpool.

Had it not been for the Sect Leader’s inadequate cultivation, he might have indeed been in danger.

Besides the Boundless Water, Chen Xuan found an azure spear.

Its body flowed continuously, seemingly made entirely out of water, yet it was held together by some inexplicable power.

The spear looked rather unassuming among the rest of the treasures.

In fact, Chen Xuan had found it lying in one of the corners of the warehouse and had simply placed it into the spatial ring together with everything else.

At the time, he hadn’t thought too much about it.

Yet now, when he took a closer look at it and investigated it with his divine sense, Chen Xuan discovered something unusual.

He couldn’t recognize what this treasure was made of.

Even when his divine sense continuously swept over it, he was unable to elicit the slightest reaction.

This was surprising.

It was as though the spear were nothing more than an ordinary mortal item.

However, having been placed inside the treasure warehouse of a major sect, this was obviously impossible.

Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows.

After a brief hesitation, he urged the Jade Pure Sutra and poured his Spiritual Energy into the spear.

Finally, he received a reaction.

Countless restrictions emerged from the depths of the spear.

As his Spiritual Energy washed over them, they lit up one after another.

The more restrictions were activated, the more powerful the spear’s momentum became.

When one-third of the restrictions were lit up, even Chen Xuan’s expression turned solemn.

This was a terrifying Magic Weapon.

Perhaps it could be compared to the Holy Weapons possessed by his real body.

Although it wasn’t as mysterious as the items given to him by Mu Xuanyin, it was already terrifying enough.

Chen Xuan controlled the spear and thrust it forward.

Instantly, a huge gap appeared in space. The surrounding world seemed to tremble under the spear’s power.

Even Chen Xuan couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.

After witnessing this power firsthand, he roughly estimated the spear’s strength.

‘I’ve only activated one-third of the restrictions, yet it’s already powerful enough to let me display Peak Soul Formation combat power.’

‘If I were to activate all of them, would I be able to contend with a Soul Transformation expert with a body only at the Nascent Soul realm?’

This thought flashed through Chen Xuan’s mind.

Of course, Chen Xuan knew that this was difficult.

After one-third of the restrictions had been activated, the remaining restrictions no longer responded to his attempts.

He tried several times. The result was the same.

After several experiments, he confirmed that he would have to use his Law Mark if he wanted to activate the remaining restrictions.

Unfortunately, now was not the right time to try. This was only a clone, after all.

Although he could call upon the power of his Law Mark, there was no reason to do so unless absolutely necessary.

Even so, Chen Xuan was already satisfied with his discovery.

‘I’m afraid the Boundless Ocean Sect once had a Soul Transformation expert in charge.’

‘Only someone at that level could possibly possess such a treasure.’

‘Unfortunately, this sect has long since declined. By now, its members don’t even know the Boundless Spear’s true abilities…’

The thought made Chen Xuan sigh inwardly.

A treasure that could unleash Peak Soul Formation combat power with ease was sitting in a corner of their warehouse, yet none of the sect’s current cultivators had recognized its true value.

Perhaps this was one of the consequences of a declining inheritance.

Powerful treasures could remain behind, while the knowledge needed to use them properly gradually disappeared.

It also made Chen Xuan even more curious about the other items in the warehouse.

If the Boundless Ocean Sect had once possessed a Soul Transformation expert, then the treasures and techniques they had left behind were naturally unlikely to be ordinary.

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but feel a little excited. Still, he suppressed the impulse to immediately go through everything.

There would be plenty of time to examine them later.

First, he wanted to see what the Blood Devil Sect possessed.

Soon, two items lay in front of Chen Xuan.

A fan. A book.

The first was a powerful Magic Weapon.

Although it was weaker than the Boundless Spear, it was still enough to make Chen Xuan raise his eyebrows.

However, it wasn’t because of its strength. Rather, Chen Xuan felt that he had seen something similar before.

Combined with the fan’s name, he quickly realized where that sense of familiarity came from.

Demon Emperor’s Fan!

This was the name of the Magic Weapon. Moreover, from the information contained within it, the fan seemed to be part of a larger set.

As for why Chen Xuan felt familiar with it…

It was because he had seen other items from this same set.

Demon Emperor’s Halberd!

One of the first rewards the System had given him.

Later, he had given it to Chi Yao.

After that, he had obtained the Demon Emperor’s Cloak belonging to this set. The cloak still sat in the real Chen Xuan’s spatial ring!

Now, after finding yet another one, Chen Xuan couldn’t help but become thoughtful.

‘Could these Magic Weapons really be connected to a greater inheritance?’

It was difficult not to think of the Jade Treasures from the Goddess of the Ocean’s Inheritance.

The more pieces he collected, the more likely it seemed that these Magic Weapons had some kind of hidden connection.

Of course, Chen Xuan would still have to spend some time investigating before he could confirm anything.

‘Perhaps Chi Yao will know something…’

Chen Xuan muttered inwardly before shifting his focus to the final item in front of him.

This was perhaps the most valuable item among them all. It was even more valuable than the Boundless Spear.

Although he hadn’t inspected it closely yet, Chen Xuan already had a guess about its contents.

Exactly because of that, he couldn’t help but feel excited.

He didn’t hesitate.

Reaching out, he grabbed the jade slip and poured his divine sense into it.

The moment his divine sense entered, a torrent of information flooded into his mind.

Countless pieces of information surged together, quickly forming a complete inheritance.

As they gradually settled, a name emerged in Chen Xuan’s mind.

Great Blood Soul Dao Origin!

After the Great Yin-Yang Dao Origin and the Great Star Dao Origin, Chen Xuan had finally obtained another Great Dao Origin.

And unlike those two, which could be used in combat but were also useful in many other areas, the Great Blood Soul Dao Origin directly increased a cultivator’s combat prowess.

The moment Chen Xuan understood its effects, his expression became slightly more serious.

For Chen Xuan, a Great Dao Origin like that was perhaps even more valuable than stronger but auxiliary Great Dao Origins.

After a brief thought, Chen Xuan let the demonic clone begin studying it.

There was no need for the righteous clone to do the same.

“It seems that the illusion is finally about to break…”

Chen Xuan whispered.

The moment his voice fell, his figure flashed.

He instantly appeared at the spot where Cai Yao had once stood, where she had been attacked by the Nascent Soul cultivator.

His gaze swept across the surroundings.

Then, his divine sense slowly spread out.

It penetrated the invisible boundaries of the illusion and entered the secret realm.

With his current strength, even the secret realm’s restrictions could no longer completely obstruct his perception.

Soon, Chen Xuan saw a familiar figure.

A young woman was sitting quietly inside a pool.

Her eyes were closed.

The surrounding water continuously surged toward her and transformed into Spiritual Energy, forming an enormous vortex around her body.

Her aura was rising at a terrifying speed.

The entire secret realm seemed to be trembling faintly because of it.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
