Chapter 496 Earth Saint Rune (2/2)
However, there was currently no time to give it a spin. He closed his fist, causing the Earth Saint Rune within it to slowly fade away. It concealed itself in his flesh, making it nearly impossible to detect.
The second Saint Rune was finally his.
Zhou Yuan took in a deep breath, a huge weight finally lifted off his mind. His first major goal had at long last been achieved.
Bzz!
While Zhou Yuan was elated over obtaining the second Saint Rune, the rays of light suddenly beamed from the jade statue’s eyes.
Zhou Yuan was startled, hastily taking two steps back.
The light converged before him, ultimately taking the shape of two ancient glowing words.
“This is?”
Zhou Yuan was stunned as he read them, “Mythic Utopia?”
“What is a Mythic Utopia?” Zhou Yuan frowned. Soon after, his eyes suddenly widened, “Could it be… a clue leading to the third Saint Rune?”
Back then, patriarch Cang Xuan had told him that he would receive a clue that led to the third Saint Rune when he obtained the second Saint Rune. From the looks of it, the third Saint Rune was probably somewhere in this Mythic Utopia.
However, the term was very unfamiliar to Zhou Yuan. Looks like he’ll have to start doing some research.
The four Saint Runes were split off parts of the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, the number divine object of Cangxuan Heaven. If there was a chance to gather them, Zhou Yuan would naturally take it.
The ancient glowing words slowly faded away as the jade statue returned to normal, no longer displaying any strange activity.
A look of thought emerged on Zhou Yuan’s face, before he solemnly bowed towards the green jade statue and said, “Don’t worry patriarch, I will do my best to gather the four Saint Runes.”
As long as the Saint Runes were in his possession, it would be impossible for the master of Sacred Palace to become the master of Cangxuan Heaven even if he did obtain the Cangxuan Saint Stamp.
His roots were in Cangxuan Heaven after all, and he would naturally not want Sacred Palace to grow so powerful. If they did, it would become extremely dangerous for him, who had the Saint Runes in his possession.
After he was done, Zhou Yuan slowly withdrew from the hall and stood outside.
Rumble!
Meanwhile, green light rose from the jade statue in the hall and soared into the sky. The green light spread, slowly melting the seal over the main peak wherever it passed.
The mist that surrounded the peak also began to recede like the tide.
The long sealed main peak was finally going to see the light of day again.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The resonant dong of an old bell rang continuously in the main peak, echoing in the surroundings as if in celebration.
Outside the main peak, high above in the sky. Emotions surged across sect master Qing Yang’s face as he watched the mist retreat from the main peak, before he stood up and bowed towards it.
“Congratulations on reopening, Saint Genesis Peak!”
Saint Genesis Peak where patriarch Cang Xuan often secluded himself. His bow was in truth a bow towards the patriarch.
The five peak masters also stood up and earnestly bowed with solemn expressions.
“Congratulations on reopening, Saint Genesis Peak!”
Their grand voices echoed across the land, causing the countless individuals within the Cangxuan Sect to look towards Saint Genesis Peak in shock.
From this day onwards, the seven peaks of the Cangxuan Sect shall reemerge in the world.
