Chapter 1448 - Chaotic Battle in the Tomb
Swish.
Chen Fan darted forth, true primeval surging within him as he refined vast quantities of immortal stones. Although he managed to salvage a hundred thousand, it was nothing compared to the original ten million. However, it was more than enough for him to break through to the Immortal Platform Realm without worrying about running short.
The pair traversed through the passageway. As it turned out, Chen Fan’s choice was the correct one. This passageway indeed led to the final tomb.
The tomb was vast and solemn, its stone walls covered in lifelike carvings. Each figure radiated immense power, imbued with terrifying martial Dao intent that almost seemed ready to burst forth from the stone at any moment.
However, upon closer inspection, Chen Fan realized that every single carving depicted the same person.
The carvings depicted one person in various stances, resembling the myriad incarnations of a single individual. Without a shred of doubt, Chen Fan knew who it was. The master of this tomb—the mighty ancient emperor.
In the center of the chamber, a massive coffin floated up and down under the pull of a mysterious force. Even more astonishing was the coffin itself: it was a high-grade immortal artifact, gleaming with sacred light, stirring an almost irresistible desire to claim it.
“How truly extravagant. Even the coffin is a high-grade immortal artifact. Tsk tsk!” Li Yu exclaimed in awe.
Chen Fan said, “He’s an emperor from the ancient era, after all. If my guess is right, he was on the verge of enlightenment, almost a Sage. For someone of that level, even a high-grade immortal artifact is trivial. Hardly surprising.”
“A being on the verge of attaining enlightenment and becoming a Sage, huh?” Li Yu’s eyes flashed brilliantly/ “I heard from my clan’s old ancestor that the Heavenly Dao in the Heavenly Realm isn’t perfect either. It’s not easy to successfully attain enlightenment. That’s why so few have managed to reach Sagehood in recent times. Most of the Sages that still exist today are ancient beings, survivors from the late ancient era. New Sages who have achieved enlightenment in the modern or antiquity eras can be counted on both hands.”
Chen Fan glanced at Li Yu. To know something like that, the Li Clan was no ordinary family among the Immortal Emperor clans. Still, enlightenment and Sagehood were distant dreams for him. There was no reason to dwell on them now.
By the time the pair arrived, chaos had already broken loose.
