Chapter 793: A Second Visit to the Golden Palace
Chen Heng had always regarded this scepter that he obtained from the Golden Palace with relative importance. He had examined the scepter the moment he had obtained it.
He had indeed discovered something unusual from this scepter. Compared to other things, this scepter was not only made of a special material, but it also contained an extremely mysterious and unique power.
That power was very weak, only emitting a little bit of Qi. However, its essence was extremely strong, far surpassing the many powers that Chen Heng had seen in the past.
Thinking about it, this was the power left behind by the Sun Primogenitor in the scepter. According to Grissom, although this scepter was made by a mortal, its true core was the Sun's bloodline.
Due to the blood of the Sun, this scepter gained enough power to be the Sun Primogenitor's Divine Artifact. Of course, although this was what Grissom told Chen Heng, Chen Heng was still doubtful about the truth.
After all, he had never seen the full power of this scepter. However, even if it was not the real Divine Artifact, Chen Heng would be nearly unbeatable with his strength and the power of the Golden Scepter.
Chen Heng was holding the Golden Scepter as he was deep in his mind. The Golden Scepter was silent in his hands all this time. As time passed, it was still absorbing the pure power of the Sun in Chen Heng's body to nourish itself.
And it could only use the power of the Sun. After all, the Golden Scepter was forged by the Sun King back then. It had long been firmly acknowledged the bloodline of the Sun Royal Family as its only recognized wielder.
Other than the bloodline of the Sun Royal Family, no other people could really use the scepter. Even if they obtained it, they would not be able to unleash much of its power.
Looking at the golden scepter in his hand, Chen Heng suddenly thought of the Ancient Silver Mirror. It was the Violet Empire's Divine Artifact. Back then, King Violet had attempted to use this Divine Artifact to suppress Aili and resolve the chaotic situation.
Unfortunately, at that moment, something expected occurred to the Divine Artifact. King Violet failed to activate the Ancient Silver Mirror.
After Chen Heng inherited the throne, he had gotten the chance to see this Divine Artifact. And he immediately realized that something was wrong.
On the Silver Ancient Mirror, some dirt completely contaminated the ancient mirror. This dirt sabotaged King Violet's attempt to activate the ancient mirror. At the Aili incident, King Violet could not unleash its power.
......
Chen Heng discovered he could awaken and activate the Violet Empire's Divine Artifact again as long as he removed this dirt. If it were any other king, they would probably be impatient to activate the Divine Artifact immediately, using it to stabilize their position.
However, Chen Heng pondered for a long time. In the end, not only did he not unseal the Divine Artifact, he even strengthened its seal. This completely sealed the Divine Artifact in the ancestral land of the Silver Moon Royal Family.
This could not be helped. With Aili's death, Chen Heng and the Silver Moon Primogenitor had become arch-enemies. Both sides wanted each other dead.
Although the Divine Artifact was a powerful resource, it was still something that originated from the Silver Moon Primogenitor.
If Chen Heng unsealed the Divine Artifact and reawakened it, he feared that he would be in great danger, possibly even death, if he used it against the Silver Moon Ancestor.
It would turn the tide of their death battle if the Silver Moon Primogenitor regained control of the Divine Artifact and turned it against Chen Heng at the critical moment.
As a powerful primogenitor comparable to a god, Chen Heng believed that the Silver Moon Primogenitor left some tricks behind within the Silver Ancient Mirror.
When using the Silver Ancient Mirror was forbidden, the value of the Golden Scepter was much more valuable to Chen Heng.
At its peak, the Golden Scepter was the Sun Primogenitor's Divine Artifact. It should have the same power level as the Silver Ancient Mirror. It would serve as an ace in Chen Heng's sleeve for his confrontation against the Silver Moon Primogenitor.
Of course, the prerequisite was that it could recover quickly and reach its peak. Otherwise, the Golden Scepter would not be much of a use to Chen Heng in its current condition.
After chatting with both Grissom and Aimer, Chen Heng left with Grissom.
A moment later, they arrived at the Graveyard of the Gods.
"What a familiar aura..."
On a desolate grassland, Grissom and Chen Heng looked at the scenery in the distance. Grissom stood where he was, feeling the corrosive aura around him. At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh.
Grissom was once a member of the King's Council, so naturally, he had also come to this mystic realm exclusive to the King's Council. Thus, he was not unfamiliar with the terrifying suppressive force around him. Instead, he felt rather nostalgic.
"Back when I joined the King's Council, I was also brought here by someone.
"I remember at that time, Jameson was still my ally. I did not expect that I would still come here after so many years..."
Grissom sighed softly. At the same time, he was a little surprised by Chen Heng's methods. "The King's Council kept this mystic realm exclusively to themselves. It should be prohibited for any members to disclose the coordinates. How did you obtain the coordinates from them?"
