Chapter 144

“If you don’t want to say, there’s no need to act like this!” A member of the Golden Crow race coldly huffed, clearly dissatisfied with Jiang Chen’s attitude. “Why all the secrecy, Primordial Holy Son? Is it some unspeakable secret? What harm is there in sharing?”

The other ancient royal families chimed in, their curiosity about Jiang Chen’s reward piqued, particularly keen to know what he had gained.

They wondered if he had obtained something powerful to use as a trump card against them in the future. Thus, these imperial clans were in tacit agreement to press Jiang Chen to reveal his reward, to prepare themselves for any future threats.

However, the human race’s powerhouses did not participate in this. They saw through the intentions of these ancient imperial clans.

“What’s all this shouting? If you want to know, have your disciples clear the trial space and ask the Supreme Palace directly! If Primordial Holy Son doesn’t want to talk, then just shut up! We know you’re envious, but there’s no need for this!”

“You could know if you really want to,” Jiang Chen said, his eyes gleaming cunningly. “How about this? Give me two flawless saint weapons, and I’ll tell you!”

Despite not fearing the All-Heaven Mirror being exposed—since its revelation could serve as a deterrence—his ultimate trump card remained his ability to devour Dao fruits.

Of course, if he could exchange this information for two flawless saint weapons, he would consider it a profitable deal.

The faces of the crowd darkened at the mention of trading two flawless saint weapons. Such treasures were incredibly rare and coveted by all races; they were not items that could be traded lightly.

“If you won’t say, then don’t bother!” The Golden Crow powerhouse snorted coldly, visibly displeased.

“I advise you to hand over two flawless saint weapons. Otherwise, if that thing ends up targeting your Golden Crow race one day, you won’t even have the chance to cry!”

“Besides, trading a secret for two flawless saint weapons is a win-win. If I were you, I’d make the trade. As the saying goes, ‘know your enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles without disaster!’” Jiang Chen continued provocatively, hinting at the great value of his secret and suggesting they would regret not making the exchange.

“Holy Son, what exactly is it?” Even the Grand Elder grew curious, advising, “If it’s too precious, it’s better not to reveal it lightly.” If it could serve as a trump card, it was worth more than two flawless saint weapons.

“A Emperor Weapon. It’s bound to be revealed sooner or later, so why not exchange it for two flawless saint weapons now?” Jiang Chen responded.

He knew he would need to use the All-Heaven Mirror soon, and its reveal was inevitable. Thus, trading the information for two flawless saint weapons seemed like a good deal.

“Let’s do that!”

Upon hearing the suggestion of a Chaotic Oath, many powerhouses immediately agreed, leaving the Golden Crow’s powerhouse feeling as if they had eaten something unpleasant. They truly did not want to agree, especially for a flawless saint weapon.

“You’re the only one left!” the Immortal Phoenix’s powerhouse turned to the Golden Crow’s Saint.

“Fine!” With the agreement from the Golden Crow’s Great Saint, the parties reached a consensus.

Soon after, “We can trade, but first, you must make a Chaotic Oath,” the Undying Phoenix’s powerhouse stated firmly.

“Okay!” Jiang Chen had no objections to making a Chaotic Oath. To him, it was just an oath, especially since they hadn’t specified the wording!

As the oath was made, two flawless saint weapons emerged, hovering at the boundary between the two parties.

Following this, Jiang Chen made his Chaotic Oath: “By the chaos above, by this immortal oath, if I do not possess a Emperor Weapon, may I burst and die immediately!”

Complex runes descended from the sky, branding onto Jiang Chen’s body, followed by a burst of light that quickly faded.

Almost simultaneously, the All-Heaven Mirror appeared above Jiang Chen, its immortal aura permeating the air, cloaking everything in a supreme presence as if a Great Emperor had revived. Everyone was shocked.

“A Emperor Weapon!”

“It’s true!”

Shocked, they looked up, their eyes filled with astonishment. Jiang Chen truly possessed an Emperor Weapon, invoking envy and jealousy among them. Why was Jiang Chen granted an Emperor Weapon by the heavens?

“Indeed, a Emperor Weapon!” Even the True Yang Saint was taken aback.

Although allied, it didn’t mean he wasn’t envious. An Emperor Weapon was too precious, capable of establishing an immortal power. Moreover, having an additional one meant different implications.

With the revelation of a third Emperor Weapon, Primordial Holy Land was now the only force in the Nine Heavens Realm with three such weapons. Proclaiming them as the strongest force in the realm would now be uncontested, given the deterrent power of three Emperor Weapons.
