Chapter 2268 - The Last Fragment

Chapter 2268: The Last Fragment

The Saints’ World had a total of forty-nine great planes and eighty-one great planets. The forty-nine planes were actually forty-nine tremendous landmasses that hovered in space, where each one was larger than any of the eighty-one great planets.

Among the forty-nine planes, there were seven sacred planes. Every single one of them possessed a Grand Exalt.

Although Grand Exalts were still Grand Primes, they had reached the limits of Grand Prime. They had comprehended at least a single law to completion, allowing them to become existences akin to the laws, where they could interfere with the operation of the laws and grasp the world with a single thought.

As a result, if a Grand Exalt spent a long time cultivating on a plane, the laws there would be influenced by the Grand Prime, leading it to become much simpler and clearer. It would become several times easier for people to comprehend the laws of the world.

This was how the seven sacred planes of the Saints’ World gained their name.

The Prosper Plane was one of the seven sacred planes. It was where the Anatta Grand Prime of the seven Grand Exalts spent most of her time cultivating. Meanwhile, the Anatta Grand Prime’s residency, the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, was located at the very centre.

That was also the holiest place on the entire Prosper Plane. It was a place revered by all.

Even though there were many peak organisations and supreme experts on the Prosper Plane, the last organisation they would want to provoke or offend would naturally be the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng.

Although the seven Grand Exalts had either died or suffered injuries from the battle in the past, where even the Anatta Grand Prime was rumoured to have died many years ago, as long as the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng possessed Yi Xin, it would be able to remain standing in the Saints’ World and would continue to strike awe in everyone’s hearts. It was also because of Yi Xin that the various experts on the Prosper Plane dared not act up.

The majestic Heavenly Palace of Bisheng sat at the centre of the Prosper Plane. It gave off a supreme presence at all times, like an ancient beast crouching there quietly.

A group of golden-armored divine guards stood there silently like statues. They never moved, protecting the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng with loyalty.

An old woman, fatigued from travel, stood near the entrance of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. She stood there politely with her head lowered.

She had already stood there for a very long time such that a thin layer of dust had formed on her clothes.

“Xu Ran, the eighth majesty wants me to tell you that you can’t see the first majesty. If you keep waiting here, it’ll just be a waste of your time and effort,” a divine general in golden armor walked out and said to the old woman with mixed feelings.

“I really have something extremely important to report to the first majesty. I- if the first majesty is unwilling to see someone as insignificant as me, t- then can I see the eighth majesty?” Xu Ran asked bitterly.

The divine general sighed gently when he saw how persistent Xu Ran was. He said, “Then let me pass on the message. Whether the eighth majesty wishes to see you or not will be up to luck.”

With that, the divine general made his way back into the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. However, just when he had turned around, he was suddenly taken aback.

A woman in a red dress who seemed to be in her twenties slowly made her way over.

The woman was extremely beautiful, enough to outshine the moon. She strode over without giving off any presence at all. She seemed just like a mortal.

However, the divine general immediately showed respect when he saw the woman. He clasped his fist and bowed in a hurry, “Greetings to the eighth majesty!”

“Junior Xu Ran greets the eighth majesty!” Xu Ran also bowed towards the woman in red with mixed feelings.

The woman in red was the eighth majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, Bai Rong.

“You can go,” Bai Rong said to the divine general. She spoke with a very soft, warm, and pleasant voice.

“Yes, eighth majesty,” the divine general bowed politely and quickly vanished within the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng.

Bai Rong made her way towards Xu Ran with gentle steps. She looked at Xu Ran’s face that had grown unfamiliar with age. She could still vaguely remember the beautiful, overcautious, and slightly naive little girl she had first seen several million years ago. It made Bai Rong sigh deeply.

Bai Rong stared at Xu Ran for a while before saying gently, “Xu Ran, I already know why you’ve come. We’ve learnt about master’s tower very long ago. This isn’t something you should be concerned about, so just forget about it.”

“Grandmaster’s Anatta Tower is with a junior called Jian Chen. Jian Chen’s strength is weak. If he continues to hold onto the Anatta Tower, it can be taken away at any other time, so please take back the Anatta Tower as soon as possible, eighth majesty,” Xu Ran pleaded.

Bai Rong sighed gently, “Master has orders for us not to interfere with this matter. As a result, let alone me, even if you find first senior sister, it’ll be pointless.”

“What? Does that mean that the grandmaster... the grandmaster... he’s still... still... still...” Xu Ran immediately became stunned when he heard Bai Rong mentioned her master. She was in emotional turmoil.

“Do you understand now? This matter isn’t something that we disciples can interfere with,” Bai Rong looked at Xu Ran deeply. She said no more, turning around and leaving. She vanished back into the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng.

“Grandmaster is still alive... grandmaster is actually still alive...” Bai Rong’s words echoed through Xu Ran’s head constantly. She was so shocked that she struggled to calm herself.

At the same time, a hazy figure shrouded by a dense layer of light from laws sat in outer space. The laws of the world were clearly presented about him, interweaving together into the truth of the world. The laws themselves seemed to be booming out.

It was as if the person had become the laws themselves and represented the laws of the world, the supreme will of the universe.

“Disciple Yi Xin greets master!”

At this moment, a beautiful woman in white clothes appeared silently before the figure shrouded in light. She clasped her fist in respect.

The woman was the first majesty, Yi Xin. She was the person who had forcefully barged through the formations of the Neptunean Divine Palace and destroyed the clone of the Samsaric Immortal Exalt. She was also the person who had struck awe in all the experts of the Saints’ World, allowing the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng to remain standing all this time.

“Master, I’ve found senior Ancient Paths’ one spiritual soul and five animal souls,” said Yi Xin. At the same time, several specks of light flew out from her hand.

These specks of light varied in sizes. Some were like souls, some were like blurry consciousnesses, and others were imprints.

These specks of light were directed into the hand of the figure surrounded by light. He looked at the soul fragments and said, “Only a single spiritual soul remains out of Ancient Paths’ three spiritual souls and seven animal souls. Once they are all brought together, I’ll be able to rebuild Ancient Paths’ soul.”
