Buzz!
Point Small Talk.
The black triangle that was flickering with an ancient lustre hovered on the palm of the Fourth Palace Master and slowly revolved. As it trembled, there seemed to be a peculiar buzzing noise that resounded.
Ancient runes quietly appeared on the surface of the triangle, like the lush leaves of an ancient tree that was spreading out. At the same time, everyone in this space suddenly felt that the entire space had started to tremble.
It was so much so that even the ocean down below had suddenly gone berserk with myriad foot high waves stacked together. The scene was extremely spectacular.
Mandala and the rest were startled as they looked at the commotion before them. At this moment, they could vaguely sense a powerful energy penetrating through space and swiftly descending.
"This energy …"
The face of the Divine Pavilion Master had also slightly changed at this moment. In the next instant, he had abruptly raised his head and looked at the sky with a dark gaze. The pitch-black space had started to ripple like water and his pupils had abruptly narrowed. That's because he could see a colossal object penetrating through space and slowly descending from the ripples.
That colossal object couldn't be seen with a glance. As it slowly descended, a terrifying pressure enveloped down, causing the eyes of the Earth Sovereigns to tremble.
Mu Chen and the rest had also raised their heads in shock as they looked at the colossal object that had descended. A brief moment later, they muttered with their mouths dry, "It's actually that dark-black pyramid …"
The colossal object that appeared before them was naturally the dark-black pyramid that Mu Chen and the rest had seen when they stepped into the Earth Sovereign Realm Treasury!
"That thing can actually summon the dark-black pyramid over?!" Mu Chen couldn't help inhaling a chilled breath. At this moment, he finally understood what was going on.
Wasn't that triangular dark-black pyramid that had been shrunk by countless times?
At this moment.
Along with the appearance of the dark-black pyramid, golden lights started to appear on the surface of the pyramid.
Golden specks of light also started to appear. These specks of light were like stars that were embellished. After which, rays of light spread out from them and connected with each other. They were like golden chains that wrapped around the exterior of the pyramid, causing the pyramid to possess an unshakable might.
At this moment, how could Mu Chen and the others not see it?
This black pyramid was clearly a terrifying object that they did not discover when they entered the Earth Sovereign Realm Treasury.
"I didn't expect this dark pyramid to be a sacred object …"
Mandala's face turned grave at this moment. A moment later, she regretfully shook her head and said, "But this item has been hidden well by the fourth palace master. Even I did not sense it."
"Holy relic?!"
When Mu Chen heard this, he was shocked.
In the Great Thousand World, the so-called Divine Artifact wasn't the most powerful item.
It was a holy artifact. However, this kind of holy artifact was extremely rare.
Even an Earth Supremacy would be envious.
It was just that after so many years, Mu Chen seemed to have never seen a real holy object.
After all, with his current strength, that level of item was nothing to him.
It was indeed a little too far away.
Of course, he wasn't the only one. Even their Great Heaven Domain didn't possess a God Artifact as a treasure of the domain. However, the dark pyramid was a genuine Saint Artifact, so how could Mu Chen not be shocked?
"This should be a small Saint Artifact. According to what I know, the Ancient Haven Palace has a total of eight Saint Artifacts, and one of them is called the Starry Sky Demon Suppression Pyramid. If I'm not wrong, it should be the one before us." Mandala sighed.
"Eight Great Saint Artifacts …"
Mu Chen deeply inhaled a mouthful of chilled air. The Ancient Haven Palace was truly worthy of its name, to even possess eight powerful Saint Artifacts. Thus, one could see how powerful the Ancient Haven Palace was at its peak. Compared to their Great Havenlaw Domain, they were much stronger.
"If I can possess a Saint Artifact, I can even confront the Divine Pavilion Master." Mandala helplessly smiled.
"Our Great Heaven Domain can't obtain a Saint Artifact even if we go all out?"
Mu Chen asked in astonishment. If a Saint Artifact was so powerful, then wouldn't their Great Heaven Domain be confident in obtaining it if they went all out?
"According to my estimations, a Saint Artifact in the Great Thousand World would cost at least tens of millions of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids …" Mandala said.
"Tens … tens of millions of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids?"
Mu Chen was dumbfounded with disbelief written on his face. Back when he was in the Merchant Continent, the Nine Dragons and Elephants Art that was comparable to the Great Perfection Rank only sold for a few tens of thousands of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. The annual income of their Jiu You Palace only amounted to a few tens of thousands of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. But right now, the price of a Saint Artifact actually exceeded tens of millions?
With such a high price, even if their Great Heaven Domain was squeezed dry, it wouldn't be easy for them to gather tens of millions of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.
"There's nothing to be surprised about. A Saint Artifact is too hard to refine and requires a long time to refine. It's normal for hundreds or thousands of years to not be able to refine one."
Mandala remained calm as she continued, "Furthermore, the power that it possesses can be said to be destructive. It can even change the outcome of a battle between Earth Sovereigns."
"In the Great Thousand World, one of the standards to measure the foundation of some heavyweight forces is to see if they possess a Saint Artifact. So, speaking from a certain angle, our Northern Region isn't much in the Greatlaw Continent."
Mu Chen was speechless as he bitterly smiled and nodded his head. He had previously witnessed the gap between Earth Sovereigns. If a Saint Artifact could make up for the gap, then it was understandable for it to possess such a terrifying price.
It was no wonder that even if their Great Heaven Domain was a top-tiered force in the Northern Region, they couldn't take out a Saint Artifact.
As Mu Chen and Mandala conversed, the other experts in this space had also discovered the background of the black pyramid.
Even the eyes of several Earth Sovereigns couldn't help turning red.
If it wasn't for the fact that the black pyramid was under the control of the Fourth Palace Master, they might have even made a move to snatch it.
"I never expected that the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid of the Ancient Haven Palace would actually be in the hands of the Fourth Palace Master … Rumour has it that this artifact possesses the ability to suppress and defend.
This time, the Divine Pavilion Master is out of luck. "
The Myriad Saint Ancestor and the rest exchanged a look and felt relieved.
All of them felt relieved. They finally understood why the Fourth Palace Master would be so confident. Even when facing the Divine Pavilion Master, who had broken through to the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm, he was still filled with disdain. Indeed, if the Divine Pavilion Master used the power of the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid, the Divine Pavilion Master wouldn't be able to escape death today!
As the Earth Sovereigns conversed, the face of the Divine Pavilion Master, who was in the torrential black aura, had turned extremely unsightly at this moment.
His gaze was fixed on the black pyramid that had penetrated through space. He could sense a heart-palpitating fluctuation coming from it.
Furthermore, at this moment, the energy of the Skyeater Evil Emperor that he had absorbed in his body had started to roll, as if it was afraid of the black pyramid. That's because, in ancient times, the Skyeater Evil Emperor had been suppressed by the Fourth Palace Master with the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid.
In the end, it was forcefully sealed and turned into nothingness under the flow of time …
"The Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid …"
The gaze of the Divine Pavilion Master changed, before he stomped his feet on the sky.
Space fluctuated and the torrential black aura swept out, forming into a myriad-foot long black python.
It had directly shattered space and pounced towards the Fourth Palace Master.
At this crucial moment …
He had actually chosen to make a move first to seize the initiative.
However …
Facing such a shocking attack from the Divine Pavilion Master, the Fourth Palace Master remained calm and his seals changed. A thin black light descended from the sky and landed before him. In the screen of light, one could see stars intertwining together, like a starry sky diagram.
The source of that black light was the black pyramid.
Boom!
The myriad-foot long black python heavily slammed against the black light screen. However, the seemingly weak black light only fluctuated with ripples and there weren't any signs of it shattering.
Looking at the defensive power, Mandala and the rest couldn't help twitching the corner of their lips.
Looking at it from a normal angle, the Fourth Palace Master could only be on the same level as the Divine Pavilion Master with the help of the Spiritual Puppet. But after borrowing the power of the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid, the latter's attack couldn't break through his defence.
The Star Demon Subduing Pagoda did indeed possess an astonishing defensive power.
When the Divine Pavilion Master saw this scene, his face grew even darker before his gaze flickered. In the next moment, he had slammed his palm on the space behind him. Instantly, space was torn apart and his silhouette moved in an attempt to hide in the spatial crack.
"He's trying to escape!"
When Mandala and the rest saw this scene, they instantly squinted their eyes. The Divine Pavilion Master was actually so decisive. The moment he saw that he couldn't do anything to the Fourth Palace Master, he actually intended to escape.
If they allowed the Divine Pavilion Master to escape, then it would definitely be a great disaster.
But just when Mandala and the rest had unsightly expressions and were about to make a move to obstruct the Divine Pavilion Master, the Fourth Palace Master faintly smiled and waved his hand. The Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid had instantly enveloped over and its shadow had enveloped this entire space.
In the end, the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid had enveloped the space that the Divine Pavilion Master was trying to escape from. Countless starlight stretched out and penetrated through space. In just a few breaths' time, the starlight was suddenly retracted. When the starlight retracted, a pathetic silhouette was forcefully pulled out from the spatial crack.
That silhouette was naturally the Divine Pavilion Master, who was trying to escape!
"Since you have absorbed the Skyeater Evil Emperor's power, then stay here."
The Fourth Palace Master's indifferent voice resounded. Shortly after, his seals changed and countless chains shot out from the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid, binding the limbs of the Master of the Main Divine Pavilion. Disregarding his struggles, they pulled him back.
Starlight wiggled on the surface of the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid, forming into a black hole that was like a huge mouth that devoured the Divine Pavilion Master.
Along with the Divine Pavilion Master being devoured, Mu Chen and the rest instantly saw the surface of the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid turning illusory and revealed the scene within. In the pitch-black starry sky, the Divine Pavilion Master was bound by countless starlight chains and couldn't escape no matter how he struggled.
The hearts of Mandala and the rest were filled with shock. In just a few minutes, the peerless Divine Pavilion Master had been easily trapped by the Fourth Palace Master.
This Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid was truly terrifying!
"Fourth Palace Master, what do you want?!"
In the Starlight Demon Suppression Pyramid, the Divine Pavilion Master's face was ashen as he roared. He never expected that the situation, which was initially under his control, would suddenly turn out like this. All of this was because of that damnable Fourth Palace Master.
The Fourth Palace Master's face remained indifferent as he said, "Take out what doesn't belong to you."
As he spoke, blazing flames suddenly soared in the pitch-black starry sky. Those flames were extremely peculiar, as if they were formed from starlight, dazzling and gorgeous.
However, when the Divine Pavilion Master saw those flames, his face turned extremely ugly and a deep uneasiness rose in his heart.
