Chapter 801: – The King’s Assembly’s Movements

??

After such a long period of laying low, there were indeed some results.

For example, at this moment, some places that were hidden deep within the King’s Assembly that were never open to outsiders were gradually opening up to Chen Heng.

This was partly because Chen Heng’s current status was different but also because of a sense of crisis.

The strength of the King’s Assembly in this world was originally very strong. Although it wasn’t obvious, they were residing in various continents, carrying out their operations. Moreover, their strength was enormous, and they had always been hiding very well.

How strong were they?

Not all thirty-six members of the King’s Assembly were as strong as Jameson, but quite a few had reached the Monarch level. This strength alone wasn’t inferior to any of the three great empires.

Compared to the three great empires, they lacked a Divine Artifact that originated from a primogenitor. They do not possess a Divine Artifact. This caused them only dare to hide and not reveal themselves.

After all, no matter how strong the King’s Assembly was, they wouldn’t be able to withstand a single strike from the Divine Artifact that originated from a legendary primogenitor.

A strike with the Divine Artifact would destroy the prosperous King’s Assembly.

Because of this, they needed to activate the Acquired Saint Child Plan to achieve their goal. They wanted to create an existence above the Monarch level and could contend against the Divine Artifacts.

Even so, the power of the King’s Assembly was still very strong in the past era. Although they were still inferior to the three great empires, they were just a tier below the three great empires.

…

When they were hiding, the three great empires wouldn’t use the Divine Artifact on them. After all, most of the Divine Artifacts in this world were incomplete and had harsh activation conditions. Otherwise, this world would be much more chaotic.

However, the battle in the Violet Empire had given the King’s Assembly a strong sense of danger. In that battle, King Violet and Jameson had made their moves, but in the end, they were swept away by someone else.

First, Aili easily suppressed King Violet. This was acceptable to them. After all, Ailey was, strictly speaking, the experimental subject of Acquired Saint Child. Although he had lost control, he could still be regarded as a Saint Child to a certain extent.

However, what happened next was shocking.

The third prince of the Violet Empire, Alan, made a move and displayed his terrifying strength. Only after that did people realize how deep this third prince of the Violet Empire had hidden.

That strength was so powerful that he would be fearless even if he simultaneously faced several Monarch-level existences. He could easily suppress them.

Aili was taken down on the spot, and the other powerhouses of the King’s Assembly who acted were suppressed. Even Jameson himself was almost unable to escape death. He only managed to escape by a fluke.

This incident dealt a heavy blow to everyone, causing their hearts to feel stifled and a heavy sense of crisis to rise within them. It was as if the world had already begun to change without them knowing.

And the battle that erupted within the Violet Empire was even more shocking. During that battle, the Guardian of Cordo, who had been hidden for many years, made a move, engaging in a great battle with others. It was even suspected that the legendary Silver Moon Primogenitor had acted.

This was like a scene from a myth, revealing itself before everyone’s eyes. It was shocking, and they were speechless. The world seemed to have changed overnight. What was once strong in their recognition was no longer strong.

This also caused the King’s Assembly to feel a sense of crisis inevitably. Hence, they desperately wanted to increase their strength.

Chen Heng rose under such a big background. He was originally one of Jameson’s subordinates. He received Jameson’s important training and was the only intact survivor of the Saint Child Plan.

That’s right, the only survivor. Two other people had passed the Saint Child Plan besides Chen Heng.

Of the two people, Aili went crazy in the end and was dealt with by Chen Heng. As for the other person, although he hadn’t gone crazy, he was on the verge of going crazy at any moment.

To the King’s Assembly, this was a failed project. Naturally, they couldn’t count on it. Thus, in the end, the only person they could count on was Chen Heng.

This was also the reason why Chen Heng was standing here.

“Can you feel the aura that’s appearing below?”

Jameson’s voice came from the side. At this moment, his voice was filled with strong anticipation.

“I can feel it a little, but it’s very weak.”

Chen Heng opened his eyes silently. He looked at Jameson and nodded. He told him what he had felt.

There was indeed a portion of the primogenitor’s aura in this ruin. That aura was very weak. It seemed covered by something, but it still couldn’t hide from Chen Heng’s senses.

“It’s good that you can feel it!”

Jameson’s face immediately revealed a look of joy. “As long as we can confirm that it’s this place, it’ll be much easier.

“Let’s go down and take a look.”

He brought Chen Heng forward and walked to the end.

In the end, they came to an empty area. It looked like an abandoned city, and everything in it was unique. It had an ancient historical charm and a very long sense of time.

“Ancient buildings…”

Chen Heng turned around and looked around. He could feel the obvious sense of history from the buildings around him. These were all ancient buildings. It had been tens of thousands of years since then.

The passage of time made this area appear ancient. Everything in it looked very old. From the wall at the side, one could vaguely see some patterns. Most of the carvings were scenes of sacrifices.

“Which Heaven God does this ruin belong to?”

A melodious female voice sounded from the side. Looking at the stone wall ruins at the side, Karina couldn’t help but reveal a curious expression.

She had also noticed the differences in this ruin. Many priests were on the stone walls, but the people they worshiped seemed completely different.

In some scenes, one could see a god as dazzling as the sun. It was the Sun God. But in other scenes, one could see the shadows of other Heaven Gods.

This strange scene attracted everyone’s attention. Because according to common sense, there should only be one Heaven God worshiped in a ruin. There was no reason to worship so many Heaven Gods simultaneously.

“Many stories have happened here…”

Jameson turned around and said, “Strictly speaking, this is not a place of worship, but a place of shelter.”

“A place of shelter?”

Kalina frowned, puzzled.

“That’s right.”

Jameson nodded and said, “Legend has it that in the distant era, there was a collision and battle between the Heaven Gods.

“That battle almost shattered the entire world, forming the continent’s outline.

“At the end of the battle, some Heaven Gods fell, and some fell into a deep sleep.

“But their remains were all gathered together and sealed in various ruins.”

“Could this be one of them?”

Hearing Jameson’s words, Chen Heng’s heart moved, and he asked.

“That’s right.”

Jameson nodded and said, “Strictly speaking, the entire Graveyard of the Gods is a place of shelter.

“It’s precise because all the ruins of the past Heaven Gods were here that this mystic realm was formed. It even filled this land with that strange suppressive power.

“That’s the unique power formed by the fusion of the auras of the Heaven Gods. Other than the legendary Saint Child,everyone else who comes to this mystic realm will be suppressed by that aura.

“It was fine in the outside world before, but now that we’ve entered this ruin, the aura’s influence will become more obvious.”

Jameson said to Chen Heng. Then, they continued forward and soon arrived in front of an altar.

The altar was not huge. On the contrary, it looked very small. The runes on it were already blurred. It seemed that they had been weathered away by the passage of time.

“Kling. Put your blood here.”

Jameson said at this point. Chen Heng nodded and went forward, injecting his blood onto the altar.

His blood was unique. At this moment, it had a pure gold color, like gold, and had a divine luster.

After passing the Trial of Origins, Chen Heng fused with the various bloodlines in his body. He could let his blood display the characteristics of a certain bloodline and freely transform within it.

Jameson could not see anything unusual at this moment. He looked at the golden blood. Jameson even praised, “As expected of the only successful Saint Child. Such powerful and pure holy blood. Given enough time, you might be comparable to the Violet King in the future.”

He was not talking about the previous Violet King but Chen Heng, who had now inherited the Violet King’s throne. Chen Heng’s previous performances seemed to have left a deep impression on him.

Chen Heng calmly withdrew his hand. He did not have any special reaction when he heard this. He only smiled, “Elder, you flatter me…

“How can I be compared to that King…”

According to his past character, he subconsciously opened his mouth to say a few modest words, but his heart was filled with a strange feeling.

“Why is it impossible?”

Beside him, Kalina suddenly opened her mouth and said very seriously, “Your bloodline is so pure and powerful. You can’t be inferior to others.”

“Whatever the Violet King was capable of now, you will also be capable in the future.”

“This… I hope so…”

Chen Heng smiled. His smile had some inexplicable meaning, but the others did not feel it.

At this moment, Jameson and Kailena did not expect that the Violet King they were talking about was right in front of them. If they knew, they probably wouldn’t dare to talk like this.

Chen Heng turned around and looked at the altar in front of him. His blood contained a powerful divinity. After it was sprinkled on the altar, it seemed to activate something, causing the runes on the altar to start shining.

But this was only a part of it. If one looked carefully, there were still more than half of the runes on the altar that had not lit up.

Looking at this scene, Chen Heng did not hesitate and continued to bleed.

Drip… drip…

Drops of blood dripped onto the altar, quickly causing the altar to react. In just an instant, a bright light was produced on the altar, almost illuminating more than half of the area.

However, Chen Heng’s face turned paler and paler, at this point, as if he was experiencing anemia.

This was naturally an act. The blood that was flowing down from him was not normal blood at all. Instead, it was blood that had been deliberately diluted with divinity.

Otherwise, with his powerful bloodline power comparable to the primogenitor, he would probably only need a drop of blood to open the altar.

However, this would be too conspicuous.

“Stop, Kling.”

Jameson stretched out his hand and stopped Chen Heng from continuing to bleed.

Looking at Chen Heng’s pale face, he could not help but praise, “No wonder the Saint Child nurtured by the Heaven God’s blood has such a powerful bloodline power.”

“If nothing goes wrong, you will develop in the future and won’t be inferior to the powerful kings of past generations.

“Your blood is too precious and isn’t suitable to be consumed here. Let someone else do it.”

Jameson’s face was praised as he signaled the people at the side to come forward. Soon, a few servants came forward and pushed an incorporeal existence forward.

This was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties. At this moment, she had completely lost her human appearance. Other than her face, one could vaguely see her former outline. There wasn’t the slightest trace of her appearance.

Her arms had turned into sharp claws. Her eyes were crimson red, filled with violence and madness. A layer of hard skin was all over her body as if fur had appeared. She looked like a beast with a human head, not a person.

She had been brought in from below. The moment she saw Jameson, she seemed to have some reaction, and her body began to tremble violently.

A crazy killing intent emanated from her body with a scarlet radiance. A cold snort came from before her eyes and quickly sounded. Looking at the struggling woman in front of her, Jameson directly activated the restriction on her body.

With a flash of golden light, the woman shrieked, and the dense runes on her body began to flicker. She fainted on the spot and completely stopped moving.

Chen Heng stood at the side and quietly watched this scene happen. Of the three experiment subjects that the Saint Child Plan had succeeded in, other than Chen Heng and Aili, the remaining one was the woman in front of him.

However, compared to Chen Heng and Aili, it was evident that the experiment on the woman before him was unsuccessful.

Chen Heng was a perfect example of the success of the experiment. Not only did he maintain his complete rationality, but he also successfully transformed the bloodline in his body, giving him a unique characteristic that belonged to a deity.

Although Aili had lost control, he had at least gained the ability to devour the Silver Moon bloodline to increase his strength. If he had not gone crazy, he would have been a perfect experiment.

As for the woman in front of him, she was a complete failure. Although she luckily survived, she was unable to maintain her rationality nor allowed herself to gain the characteristics of Aili’s crazy growth.

Although her bloodline had transformed, the degree of that transformation could not be compared to Chen Heng and Aili. She was a complete failure.

In Chen Heng’s opinion, the woman’s condition was the normal result of the Saint Child Plan experiment. As for Chen Heng and Aili, they were anomalies.

Naturally, Chen Heng needed no explanation. He was not even from this world. With his nature, the danger of the so-called Saint Child Plan experiment was nonexistent for Chen Heng.

As for Aili, he was also an anomaly. His nature was not that of an ordinary royal family, but he was born with Destiny’s blessings. As the Silver Moon Primogenitor’s natural enemy, he was destined to be a Destiny Nemesis.

The Saint Child Plan experiment was more to activate his nature than to nurture him. The abilities in his body were all his power and not given by the Saint Child Plan experiment, whether it was his madness or his ability to grow by devouring the bloodline of others.

As for the person in front of him now, she was a normal person who had gone through the Saint Child Plan experiment.

Mortals could not withstand the baptism of the primogenitor’s bloodline. Especially when this world’s bloodline was equivalent to a kind of authority, it was even more impossible.

At best, any normal people baptized by the Saint Child Plan experiment would completely become slaves of the bloodline and turn crazy.

Unfortunately, because of the example of Chen Heng and Aili, the expectations of the King’s Council and Jameson became very high. Therefore, they naturally looked down on the girl before them and regarded her as a failure.

“She was useless anyways. This seemed to be the perfect opportunity to dispose of her.”

Jameson looked at the woman who had collapsed in front of him. He let out a long sigh, took out a golden dagger, and slowly walked forward.

What followed was a bloody scene. Jameson held the dagger in his hand and cut off the woman’s head. Her blood condensed and fell on the altar in front.

A thick, bloody smell assaulted everyone’s face. It was extremely strong, and it attacked their surroundings.

Karina did not react to this bloody scene. Instead, she watched this process with interest, as if she found it very interesting.

Under their gazes, the crimson blood sprinkled on the altar before them and slowly disappeared.

After the blood was sprinkled, the last bit of runes on the altar began to shine brightly. At this moment, it directly emitted a resplendent light. At a glance, it made people feel it was holy and had a unique aura.

“Although she was a failed product, she still has some use in the end.”

Looking at the altar that was slowly lighting up, Jameson nodded his head in satisfaction.

He and Kalena were both royal bloodlines, but they could not activate this altar. They needed people with divine bloodlines if they wanted to activate this altar.

Although the woman before was a failure, she had undergone the Saint Child Plan experiment. This made her body possess part of the divine bloodline, just that its concentration was very weak.

From this perspective, the Saint Child Plan experiment was not completely useless. Chen Heng looked at the scene before him, and this thought silently flashed through his mind.

“If I use the principle of this experiment, I might be able to cultivate some good things.”

Chen Heng looked at the altar slowly shining in front of him, thinking so in his heart.
