Chapter 342: Borrowing the Emperor’s Pool

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the Wang family, an ordinary person who had cultivated for twenty years would be at about the God Altar Realm. If one was slightly more talented, they would reach the Spirit Sea Realm.

As for someone like Wang Wenxuan, he had even passed the eighth Nirvana Tribulation and his cultivation was close to the late stage of the Nirvana Realm.

Only he, Wang Kun, was still stuck in the Qi Sea Realm. Just breaking through to the initial stage of the Qi Sea Realm had taken him massive amounts of time and resources.

If someone else had used those resources, they would have almost reached the Spirit Sea Realm by now. This was the difference between a genius and a mediocrity! He had spent the most resources, yet obtained the least results. The same amount of resources could have made a genius invincible among his peers.

“Perhaps 1 really am just useless!” Wang Kun muttered to himself, recalling everything from the past.

Before he finished speaking, he stepped into the Wang family’s ancestral land, his lonely figure disappearing.

At the same time, the Wang family was an imperial clan. Its interior was not something ordinary holy lands could compare to. Thousands of divine mountains floated in midair. Fog drifted between the peaks and valleys, and spirit cranes danced. Countless multicolored clouds cascaded from the sky like waterfalls. Looking from afar, it was like a celestial paradise on earth.

In the center was a grand hall. Su Chen and the Wang family elders were seated within. Wang Wenxuan, the successor, could only stand respectfully to the side. Originally, there should have been a place for him in this hall. However, with a saint king and the Wang family’s saint present, even though he was of the same generation as Su Chen, it was impossible for him to sit together.

“Young Friend Su Chen, why have you come to our Wang family today?” the Wang’s saint inquired.

“It’s nothing major. I just want to borrow your Emperor’s Pool for a bit,” Su Chen said with a smile.

Emperor’s Pool?

Hearing this, the corner of the saint’s eye twitched slightly. But he quickly recovered and laughed heartily, “What was 1 thinking? So it’s just a small matter. Young Friend, when do you plan on using the Emperor’s Pool? I can make some arrangements.”

“Oh?” Now it was Su Chen’s turn to be surprised.

There were always rumors that the descendants of Great Emperor Wang Teng were difficult to deal with, especially regarding the Emperor’s Pool. After all, this was where the great emperors had refined their sacred weapons. The Dao rhythms they left behind still flowed within. Aside from refining weapons, it could also be used for cultivation. As long as one could comprehend Great Emperor Wang Teng’s Dao presence, it would benefit them for life.

He hadn’t expected the Wang family’s saint to ponder briefly before nodding and agreeing outright. This made the Saint Breaking Pill Su Chen had prepared useless.

“Naturally, the sooner the better,” Su Chen replied without hesitation.

“How about tomorrow then?” The Wang family’s saint looked deeply at Su Chen, his eyes profound.

The others present might not be able to discern Su Chen’s strength, but to him it was transparent. He could sense Su Chen had reached the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm already.

Reaching this step meant he was only one stride away from becoming a saint. If nothing unexpected happened, his main purpose in coming to the Wang family this time was likely to refine his own sacred weapon.

If an ordinary person came to the Emperor’s Pool to refine a sacred weapon, they wouldn’t even get through the door. But Su Chen was different. Already preparing to become a saint at his age, in a few thousand years’ time, wouldn’t he be preparing to become a great emperor then? If he came to the Emperor’s Pool again after becoming a great emperor to refine an imperial weapon, it would be the utmost glory for their entire clan!

The Emperor’s Pool contained the Dao rhythms left behind by several great emperors. Just this one pond could become the very foundation for the Wang family’s future.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Senior.” Su Chen cupped his hands slightly.

“It’s just a small matter.” The Wang family’s saint waved his hand dismissively.

He looked at Wang Yunzong and said solemnly, “Yunzong, I’m going to arrange some things below. You’ll take my place for now to entertain Young Friend Su Chen. Remember, do not lose courtesy!”

As he spoke, he cupped his hands at Su Chen and took his leave. Opening the Emperor’s Pool was no trivial matter. As a saint, he had to make preparations in advance.

Seeing the Wang family’s saint off, Su Chen recalled that young man’s lonely back he saw outside the mountain gate earlier.

The Wang family was massive, with at least 100,000 clansmen including side branches. He wasn’t sure if that youth entering the mountain gate was living inside or outside the mountain gate. Moreover, he couldn’t randomly spread out his divine sense to search the Wang family. To be prudent, he could only ask the Wang family’s elders.

Thinking so, Su Chen looked to Wang Yunzong and casually said, “Elder Wang, do you still remember that Qi Sea Realm youth at the mountain gate?”

“A Qi Sea Realm youth?” Wang Yunzong was puzzled. There were simply far too many clansmen in the Wang family. At least eight thousand were at the Qi Sea Realm. He really couldn’t tell who exactly Su Chen was referring to. What was more, many had gathered to see Su Chen’s arrival, including no small number at the Qi Sea Realm.

“Could it be Wang Kun?” Wang Wenxuan muttered under his breath. When Su Chen spoke, his intuition told him the one Brother Su Chen sought was Wang Kun. This person had left too deep an impression on him. Thinking through the entire Wang family, whenever Qi Sea Realm youths were mentioned, Wang Kun came to mind first. After all, he stood out far too much. Twenty years just to reach the Qi Sea Realm was unique in the entire Wang family.

“It’s him?” Wang Yunzong was also shocked.

In truth, he had guessed the same initially, but deep down didn’t want Su Chen to see Wang Kun at all. Firstly, Wang Kun was a disgrace to the Wangs. Secondly, Su Chen’s words could be a great opportunity for some of the family’s youths.

He naturally hoped to give this chance to one with a brighter future. If Su Chen really gave the benefits to Wang Kun… in everyone’s eyes, it would be a complete waste of the opportunity.

More crucially, if Su Chen gave anything, they would be too embarrassed to ask Wang Kun to hand it over. After all, no matter what, Wang Kun was still a Wang family member.

That said, if Su Chen gave benefits only for the rest of the family to snatch them away later, wouldn’t that be a slap in Su Chen’s face? In that way, the rapport the Wangs had just built with Su Chen might be ruined in an instant.

“Whether it is or not, call him over and we’ll know at a glance,” Su Chen said unhurriedly.

“Eh…” Wang Yunzong pondered briefly before nodding helplessly. He instructed Wang Wenxuan, “Wenxuan, summon all the Qi Sea Realm disciples who went to the mountain gate today. Leave no one out!”

Su Chen had only mentioned a Qi Sea Realm youth. He hadn’t specified who, not even whether male or female. Naturally, he had to bring them all.. Perhaps they were overthinking things?
