Chapter 2238: Chapter 2282: Blank Holy Decree

The Daqian Princess?

In the Daqian Divine Kingdom, besides the Daqian Crown Prince, there was also a Princess in the mortal world? And she was in their Central Earth?

Qing Jiu gave him a strange look instead. "You didn’t know?

"Are you also unaware of how your Central Earth came to be?"

"Central Earth?" Jiang Fan said, "Of course I know. It’s a world pieced together by our Ancient Saints, taking a piece of land from both the Heavenly Realm and the Hell Realm."

After saying this, Jiang Fan froze.

Wait! Where did the Ancient Saints of Central Earth come from?

Jiang Fan asked in disbelief, "Are you saying that the Ancient Saints of our Central Earth came from the Daqian Divine Kingdom?"

Qing Jiu nodded. "Yes, and rumor has it that they all have quite the formidable backgrounds."

Jiang Fan was stunned.

He remembered what the Tongyuan Realm Master had commented upon seeing the remains of the Supreme Ancient Saint. The Supreme Ancient Saint was the most peerlessly talented person ten thousand years ago. His sudden emergence had once illuminated the heavens, making all living beings believe that the era of divine descent had returned.

From just these two brief sentences of evaluation, one could catch a glimpse of the Supreme Ancient Saint’s former formidable might. The strength of the other Ancient Saints shouldn’t be much inferior to that of the Supreme Ancient Saint, right?

Why would so many stunningly brilliant figures from ten thousand years ago, who shone through the ages, come to the remote edge of the Void to establish a small Central Earth? And who could command them to come?

The only answer was that Princess of the Daqian Divine Kingdom. And the identity of this Princess was probably not hard to guess.

Jiang Fan said, "Could that Princess be... the Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation?"

The Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation also had a special identity. That was, in a world dominated by bloodline inheritance, she created the Enlightenment School. Because of this, the Human Clan rose among All Races, unified the heavens, and established the Daqian Divine Kingdom. Even if she wasn’t the founder of the nation, she must have held a status no lower than that of the founder.

Qing Jiu said, "Who else could it be but her?"

As expected! The Ancient Saint of Cloud Desolation was the Daqian Princess! In other words, she was the Daqian Crown Prince’s... aunt!

Jiang Fan took a deep breath, his mind unable to calm down for a long time. The mystery that had shrouded the heavens throughout the ages began to gradually surface.

He thought, "When this woman comes back, I’ll properly interrogate her!"

At this moment, he noticed from the corner of his eye that while he was lost in thought, Qing Jiu had quietly walked over to the corner where the honeycomb was located. On the ground in the corner sat a large vat containing clear Spiritual Liquid, exuding an incredibly rich vitality.

Jiang Fan recognized it and said in astonishment, "Is this the Water of Life?"

Back when the Xingyuan Venerable sacrificed himself to unleash the Great Vow of Heaven and Earth, his life force was overdrawn. Qian Jiao Venerable, who had originally left, found the Water of Life for him. This water had the miraculous effect of rapidly repairing one’s vitality. In emergencies, its effect was even better than the Phoenix Essence Pill.

However, Qian Jiao Venerable had only brought back a small bottle, while right before their eyes was a massive vat of it.

Qing Jiu looked at the water vat, then at the position of the honeycomb. "So they were able to multiply by drinking the Water of Life.

"This water vat must have been intentionally placed here."

Jiang Fan deeply agreed. The vat hadn’t been there for long; it must have been placed recently. Associating this with the terrifying temperature of the Fire Bees, and then thinking about the melting of the dog chain, he vaguely guessed what the purpose of the Fire Bees was.

Looking at the water vat, Jiang Fan’s eyes revealed a burning desire. With this much Water of Life, he wouldn’t have to fear his Dao body being destroyed while undergoing Body Refinement to temper his Physique.

He said, "Let’s split the Water of Life equally among the three of us." Such a large amount of it would be enough for the three of them to use for a very long time.

Qing Jiu shook her head. "Everything here should belong to you."

Without his rescue, they would have died long ago; how could they possibly discuss dividing the treasures of this place with him?

Dharma Seal, on the other hand, stared at a patch of words on the wall. They were not inscribed with killing intent or hatred; instead, they were several Buddhist Heart Sutras. The Daqian Crown Prince also knew that immersing himself in hatred for a long time would distort his mind, so he occasionally cultivated the Buddhist Heart Sutra as well.

Hearing their conversation, Dharma Seal looked over and said, "Martial Granduncle, may this young monk study the scriptures on the wall?"

Oh? There was actually Buddhist Law here?

Jiang Fan thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and then said to Qing Jiu, "Alright, I’ll take the Water of Life. You should also look for something you need."

With a beckon of his hand, he collected the entire vat along with the Water of Life. He then began to look around.

The Tongyuan Realm Master had taken an Eighth Grade Heavenly Pill from this place. Surely that couldn’t be the only treasure here? But at a glance, the cell was completely empty. There were only vast patches of dust and some shattered, trivial items.

The only valuable Eighth Grade Heavenly Pill and the jade slip had all been taken away by the Tongyuan Realm Master using a special method. He was, after all, a Saint Realm Remnant Soul; his methods were truly unexpected.

Just as he was feeling disappointed, he caught a glimpse of a small piece of bright yellow cloth out of the corner of his eye. It was only about the size of a palm. Buried in the dust and having endured ten thousand years of time, its color remained unchanged without the slightest sign of decay.

He stepped forward and picked it up.

The moment it touched his hand, an intimidating pressure that made his heart suddenly clench shot straight up to his Heavenly Spirit Cover, forcing him to hastily drop it.

"Is this... a Holy Decree of the Daqian Divine Kingdom?" Jiang Fan felt his mouth go dry. To think he actually saw a genuine Holy Decree from the Daqian Divine Kingdom!

"There is a piece here too, and it’s blank," Qing Jiu’s voice drifted over.

Jiang Fan looked over, and sure enough, Qing Jiu had also found a fragment of a Holy Decree in the dust not far away.

The thoroughly disappointed Jiang Fan had his confidence rekindled. With a wave of his sleeve, he blew away the dust covering the floor, revealing the ground underneath. Pieces of irregular Holy Decree fragments of various sizes were scattered everywhere.

Qing Jiu’s beautiful eyes quickly swept across them, keenly sensing that something was wrong. "This Holy Decree... doesn’t have any words on it.

"It is a blank Holy Decree. It must have been left behind by the Daqian Crown Prince."

A blank Holy Decree? Jiang Fan stroked his chin, pondering its use. Soon, a ridiculous thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

Qing Jiu had clearly thought of it as well, and she said regretfully, "Don’t even think about it.

"The Holy Decree is already shattered.

"Even if repaired, without the stamp of the Imperial Jade Seal, it won’t have the validity of a Holy Decree at all."

However, Jiang Fan’s breathing grew slightly heavier.

The Holy Decree was shattered, but he could find a way to repair it! As for the stamp of the Imperial Jade Seal... that rubbing in the Purple Crystal Ore could still be used, right? If so, wouldn’t he be able to issue a Holy Decree himself?

Just thinking about it made his mouth go dry!

"Do you want it?" Jiang Fan asked.

Qing Jiu cast a sidelong glance at him, asking in shock and suspicion, "You couldn’t possibly have the ability to issue a Holy Decree, could you?"

Jiang Fan smiled without saying a word. With a wave of his large sleeve, he gathered all the Holy Decree fragments in front of him. By simply piecing them together, they actually formed a complete Holy Decree. It was just full of cracks and needed to be repaired.

Once he got out of here, he would check the Daily Life Record to see if there was a way to repair a Holy Decree. Having obtained a Holy Decree and the Life Spirit Liquid, this trip to the Third Layer was not in vain.

Jiang Fan then looked elsewhere. He found that apart from the Holy Decree, there were also some small, fragmented sundries on the ground. Most of them had already weathered away and were completely useless.

However, in the center of the nine chains—the very spot where the Daqian Crown Prince had stood—there were actually some sparkling crystals embedded in the ground.

This cage was meant to imprison the Daqian Crown Prince, after all. In terms of hardness, it was only stronger than the cages outside, not weaker.

Just what could have pierced the ground and embedded itself inside?
