The fundamental difference between a Primordial Dao Artifact and an Ancient Dao Artifact did not lie in the change in power. After all, as the number of Dao patterns increased, the change in power was very normal. The real fundamental difference lay in whether or not the Primordial Dao Artifact had a strong self-awareness.
For thousands of years, many Primordial Dao Artifacts that were hidden in the deep mountains and wild forests had appeared. There had also been cases of lucky martial artists obtaining Primordial Dao Artifacts by chance. However, these lucky people were often not lucky. This was because most people's strength was not enough to control the Primordial Dao Artifacts.
If the consciousness of the Dao spirit was stronger than the consciousness of the master, it would control the master and use the master's body to mix into the world. The Dao spirit did not have good and evil consciousness. It was extremely murderous. Therefore, every time a Primordial Dao Artifact appeared, it would basically cause a large number of casualties. In the end, a powerful person would appear to collect the Primordial Dao Artifact.
Even if there was no master to control it, the Primordial Dao Artifact with the Dao spirit was still quite dangerous. Just like the stone and the pagoda in front of Long Chen.
The appearance of the Primordial Dao Artifact brought a fatal crisis.
Long Chen had only collected the treasures once. These two Primordial Dao Artifacts were like guardian gods. As soon as they appeared, they attacked Long Chen.
Those who could really use the Primordial Dao Artifacts basically had to be at least in the Three Reincarnation Tribulations Realm. This was the basic standard for using the Primordial Dao Artifacts. Therefore, in every ancient city, there were not many Primordial Dao Artifacts with more than 100 Dao patterns.
The Middle Age Dao Artifacts were more common among the people. The Ancient Dao Artifacts were more common in the ancient cities of the God's descendants. Only the number of Primordial Dao Artifacts in an ancient city reflected the comprehensive strength of an ancient city of the God's descendants.
Basically, those who could possess the Primordial Dao Artifacts not only had extraordinary strength, but also a high status. For example, Su Zilan still did not have an Primordial Dao Artifact.
Even if she did, she might not be able to control it.
Of course, Long Chen did not expect himself to be able to obtain these two Primordial Dao Artifacts. Seeing that the other party was protecting the many Dao Artifacts here, and that the terrifying power they displayed could definitely kill Long Chen in an instant. Even the Time Dragon could not escape the eyes of the Dao Spirit. At this moment, Long Chen made a prompt decision and fled.
He had long since been prepared to move around the entrance of the tunnel, not daring to go too deep. When the two Primordial Dao Artifacts appeared, he immediately returned as fast as he could, and entered the entrance of the tunnel. The entire world shook, and the mountains shook. The two Primordial Dao Artifacts released a world-shaking might. Fortunately, Long Chen moved quickly, otherwise, he would have definitely died inside...
The last thing he saw was the golden stone transforming into thousands of divine generals. They roared and charged at him. Every divine general had the combat strength of the Reincarnation Tribulation realm.
The pagoda came pressing down, and one could vaguely see that there were countless souls imprisoned in the pagoda, and they were letting out mournful cries. If Long Chen was any slower, he would also become one of them.
Just as he was about to escape, something rather strange happened.
The God Slaying Sword in his hand actually had its own power. It broke free from Long Chen's left hand and rushed into the world filled with Dao Artifacts. With a crazed and greedy attitude, it went to meet the two terrifying Primordial Dao Artifacts.
"God Slaying Sword."
Long Chen stretched out his hand, but he was unable to grab it.
This crazed God Slaying Sword probably treated the two Primordial Dao Artifacts as its own food...
However, the God Slaying Sword had its own power.
When Long Chen left that world, the entrance of the tunnel began to close, forming a new wall. It slowly closed, and it was probably going to be isolated forever. At this moment, Long Chen looked in shock at the world that had not completely closed.
The God Slaying Sword had undergone a huge change. Its body released billions of gray sword auras, and the devouring and killing sword auras combined to form a huge skeleton that was taller than the pagoda. It was completely shrouded in gray fog, and it was a terrifying skeleton that was completely formed by gray sword auras. It had the power to make Long Chen feel a fatal sense of danger.
"This is the real God Slaying Sword..."
Long Chen could only see the back of the huge skeleton. The overwhelming killing aura and shocking power made him smile bitterly.
He did not expect the God Slaying Sword that had been following him all this time to be so terrifying. That huge killing skeleton was probably the Dao spirit of the God Slaying Sword.
The two divine swords on him were equally mysterious now.
Would the final form of the God Slaying Sword have 999 Dao patterns?
To the God Slaying Sword, any Dao Artifact was its food. It was just that whether it could swallow them was a serious question. However, Long Chen could definitely see that it had been holding back for a long time in order to meet the Primordial Dao Artifacts. It had accumulated unlimited power, and at this moment, it was finally unleashed in a frenzy.
In the world of the Dao Artifact, the skeleton formed by the God Slaying Sword's killing sword auras was engaged in an intense battle with the golden stone and pagoda. Everywhere it went, a large number of Dao Artifacts and immortal essences were completely annihilated and turned to ashes.
Long Chen had originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that the door had not completely closed to enter and snatch some Dao Artifacts. However, seeing how terrifying the battle inside was, he thought better of it.
He was already very lucky to be able to escape death after barging in this time.
One could be greedy, but not too greedy.
Otherwise, he would not end up well.
The God Slaying Sword's battle level was beyond what Long Chen could control. In an instant, gray sword aura filled the entire world. Countless Dao Artifacts were destroyed. The two Primordial Dao Artifacts were destroyed one by one in front of the killing skeleton's sharp sword aura. The pagoda was also beginning to be pierced by the sword aura, becoming riddled with holes.
"It's so strong."
Long Chen could not help but be speechless. The God Slaying Sword was so terrifying when it did not unleash its power. If Su Zhen came at this time, he did not know if he would be killed directly.
Of course, Long Chen guessed that the God Slaying Sword could not maintain this state for too long. It must have accumulated power for a long time for a belief to form such a battle power.
Boom, boom, boom.
The entire world was in a state of chaos.
Finally, Long Chen heard two earth-shattering explosions. The explosions sounded like the screams of two living creatures before they died.
"It destroyed the two Primordial Dao Artifacts."
Long Chen could not help but feel suffocated.
This was too crazy.
However, at this time, the newly formed wall was about to completely cover the door. It was impossible for Long Chen to destroy the wall here, because this was the Gods' Relic.
At the last moment before the door completely closed, the God Slaying Sword lost all its halos and became an ordinary gray longsword. It landed at Long Chen's feet.
At this time, the door happened to be closed.
That world filled with treasures could be said to be completely isolated from Long Chen.
This encounter could be said to be hair-raising.
There were definitely more than two Primordial Dao Artifacts in this world. Just as the God Slaying Sword was fighting, Long Chen could already feel a large number of similar existences awakening.
His eyes immediately fell on the skull on the hilt.
Unfortunately, the shiny skull still only had one eye.
"After devouring two Primordial Dao Artifacts, the God Slaying Sword still did not reach the level of a Primordial Dao Artifact. However, it has formed a total of 83 Dao patterns. It has already surpassed the Eight Major Sky Swords..."
The skull on the hilt had a total of 83 Dao patterns.
Although there were not a hundred of them, Long Chen was still scared out of his wits. Although the God Slaying Sword had returned to its original state, he did not dare to touch it casually. This was because he was not sure if the God Slaying Sword belonged to him anymore.
The current God Slaying Sword was definitely a divine weapon that was even more terrifying than the Eight Major Sky Swords.
After thinking for a long time, since it had obediently returned to his side, it should still be subservient to him. Therefore, without batting an eyelid, he stretched out his hand and used the power of Nirvana to suck the God Slaying Sword back into his hand.
There was no change at all.
"Help me... become a Primordial Dao Artifact."
In his consciousness, there was a call. This voice was mechanical and pale. It should be from the God Slaying Sword. Long Chen connected this voice to the huge massacre skeleton.
"And then?" Long Chen asked calmly.
"I will... fight with you for the rest of my life."
After saying this, the God Slaying Sword fell silent. It was as if its consciousness had blurred. However, at this moment, Long Chen realized that a terrifying force was surging towards the God Slaying Sword. It was the power of 83 Dao patterns.
This power could only be controlled by someone at the Yin-Yang Rebirth Realm. To him, it was undoubtedly terrifying. Lingxi had obtained the Eight Major Sky Swords, but she had yet to completely control them.
However, because the God Slaying Sword had a Dao spirit, the killing power of the God Slaying Sword would not affect Long Chen. Instead, it would be subservient to Long Chen. With the God Slaying Sword in hand and the surging power, Long Chen suddenly could not estimate the level of his combat power...
The current God Slaying Sword was too terrifying.
Long Chen felt as if he was holding a huge beast that was about to explode. He realized that he could probably kill a Ninth Tier Nirvana Rebirth Realm warrior with a casual swing of the sword.
Darkness, Devouring, Corrosion, Killing...
The four elements formed the God Slaying Sword.
In his mind, the God Slaying Art became clearer and clearer.
No matter how Long Chen asked, the God Slaying Sword did not wake up again.
He waved it a few times and then kept it. He had already set a goal in his mind. He wanted the God Slaying Sword to become a Primordial Dao Artifact.
He wanted to see how much the God Slaying Sword would grow by then. It already had 83 Dao patterns. Only a Primordial Dao Treasure would be able to upgrade the God Slaying Sword. In that case, where would he find an Primordial Dao Treasure?
The world of treasures had been sealed and there was no way to enter.
Long Chen looked around and said, "If that's the case, let's go to the Gate of Life and Death first. After experiencing a few extreme dangers, I think I have some ideas... More importantly, there are these things."
In the world just now, he found more than ten crystals that were completely formed by Nirvana Spiritual Qi. The endless power in these crystals came from the Primordial Era. They would probably be of great help to him and Lingxi. Moreover, no one would come to this tunnel. Therefore, Long Chen was extremely daring and occupied this place without permission.
"Chen, what are you doing?" asked Lingxi sweetly as she came out of the God Nation.
