“Clowns jumping around! Showing off in the presence of an expert!”
…
On the mountaintop, a luxuriantly green large tree overshadowed and obscured the sun.
Different from the Deathsoul Tree’s lifeless atmosphere, this large tree was overflowing with life force.
A young man sat on the treetop, looking into the distance. That gaze seemed to pieced through the void, seeing very far away places.
“Heh, interesting. Using the Ghost Dao in front of the Soul Suppressing Pearl, it’s truly the ignorant is fearless! However … the Soul Suppressing Pearl has just regained consciousness, it probably really needs this kind of nourishment!” the youngster said.
“That human seems to be here to find us,” the large tree suddenly emitted a voice.
“How do you know? Possessing the World Suppressing Stele and Soul Suppressing Pearl, I wonder if this boy can save this Immortal Grove Region that is on the brink of collapse or not!” the young man said.
“Probably can’t! The Realm Locking Gate isn’t that easy to pass through,” the big tree said.
“You’re so sure? I’m very optimistic about this boy though!” the young man said with a smile.
…
Li Gui’s martial technique was cast halfway when he detected something amiss.
Undying Ghost Slaughter was the strongest soul technique that he could cast. If at his prime back then, even same-level powerhouses did not dare to clash head-on either.
Those capable of suppressing him was also just Absolute Heaven, that level of existence.
If he could refine himself into an undying evil ghost and use this move again, he definitely dared to contend with Absolute Heaven.
It was just that, man proposes, God disposes. A million years later, Heavenly Dao dwindled to zero. He was already unable to return to Deity Realm anymore.
What was even more damnable was that this boy in front of him ruined his million years of painstaking effort, making him fail on the cusp of success.
Even so, the Undying Ghost Slaughter, this move, was also an unbelievably terrifying existence.
But Li Gui discovered to his dismay that this move of his seemed to have set off some remarkable things. No matter how he outputted soul force, he was unable to completely execute this attack.
It was as if this move became a bottomless pit.
His soul force flowed into Ye Yuan’s sea of consciousness unceasingly.
Ye Yuan clearly also detected the Soul Suppressing Pearl’s changes. The him who was originally akin to facing a great enemy simply just abandoned all actions at this time, allowing the Soul Suppressing Pearl to conduct itself freely.
The situation got completely out of hand.
The look of horror on Li Gui’s face became increasingly thicker. He wanted to withdraw his soul force, but he discovered to his dismay that he already could not do it.
Right now, his soul force seemed like floodwaters that broke the dam, flowing over toward Ye Yuan’s sea of consciousness non-stop.
“Ye Yuan, you … What the hell did you do? This … What’s going on here?” Li Gui’s face was full of alarm and panic. His voice was even almost in tears.
Li Gui examined himself and felt that he was already an expert on the divine soul path. There was absolutely nothing that he did not understand.
But he discovered to his dismay that he completely could not understand the current situation.
Ye Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said, “You know it, I didn’t do anything.”
He really did not do anything, but would Li Gui believe?
It was because Ye Yuan did nothing at all that Li Gui felt even more fishy.
He knelt on the ground with a thud and prostrated to Ye Yuan and said, “Young Master Ye! Sir Ye! Master Ye 1! I … I was wrong! I beg you to let me off! I … I won’t ever find trouble with you again! You … You didn’t lose anything at all, but I already have nothing at all anymore! I beg you to give me a chance to turn over a new leaf and let me off!”
This terrifying devouring power, he was completely powerless to resist.
No matter how he urged his Divine Dao laws, he was also unable to break free of Ye Yuan’s devouring power.
Li Gui even had the heart to die. Just what kind of an existence did he provoke?!
Ye Yuan said with a helpless look, “Not that I’m not letting you off, but I really didn’t do anything at all!”
The Soul Suppressing Pearl was not what he could control at all. From the start till now, all of the Soul Suppressing Pearl’s actions were done on its own.
This time was no exception as well.
Huff huff …
The devouring power became stronger and stronger. Li Gui’s devoured was actually pulled right out of Zhuge Qingxuan’s body in the end, converging into Ye Yuan’s sea of consciousness in the end.
Zhuge Qingxuan’s entire body trembled, looking at this scene in shock.
Without Li Gui, he also lost his final reliance.
The current him facing Ye Yuan, he did not have any strength to retaliate at all.
“Y-Ye Yuan, I … I …”
Zhuge Qingxuan’s expression was deathly pale. He completely did not expect that such a drama-like scene would actually occur.
In his view, no matter how miserable, this was also a great battle evenly-match on both sides.
Who knew that in a blink of an eye, Li Gui was devoured until not even dregs remained.
He retook his body’s control rights anew now. But, he had never lost all hope like this before, resulting in him not even knowing how to word it.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said coolly, “You want me to let you go, right?”
Zhuge Qingxuan was stunned and nodded his head desperately.
But Ye Yuan said disdainfully, “Our enmity is also not irresolvable. But too bad, you sought refuge with the fiend race. This is something that this young master cannot tolerate. Therefore, sorry! Your life, I must take it!”
Hearing Ye Yuan sentence him to death, Zhuge Qingxuan’s face turned ghastly pale.
Suddenly, he lifted his head to the sky and gave a long howl and said, “What a joke! Ye Yuan, you don’t really think that you’re the savior, right? Do you know how strong Kanuo is? He’s a former Origin Deity Realm powerhouse! Do you think that you can be his match?”
Ye Yuan said very indifferently, “Otherwise, why do you think this young master would come to the Godsfall Mountain Range?”
“You want to become a deity? Hahaha … this is even more unrealistic than suppressing Kanuo!” Zhuge Qingxuan said with a crazed laugh.
Ye Yuan pursed his lips and said scornfully, “That’s not something you have to be worried about anymore. Either way, you can’t see it anymore.”
Finished talking, Ye Yuan directly used the Monumental Sword!
The Half-Deity Realm Ye Yuan displaying this move again, the power already could not be mentioned in the same breath!
Zhuge Qingxuan’s gaze revealed a savage look, and he said ferociously, “Your father, I, will fight it out with you! Profound Divinity Finger!”
Before Ye Yuan had broken through to Half-Deity Realm, Zhuge Qingxuan was already not his match.
How could this half-baked move currently be Ye Yuan’s match?
A sword unleashing, swept away all obstacles in the way.
Zhuge Qingxuan did not even let out a scream and was directly annihilated by this sword.
The Heaven Stabilizing Divine King, who had commanded the Divine Realm for over two thousand years, perished here!
Chapter 1265. World Tree |
“Ye Qing, can you feel the aura of the Kunwu Divine Wood?”
“Mmm, there’s a very strong wood-spirit energy ahead. I feel like … that being seems to be guiding us forward.”
Ye Yuan was stunned when he heard that: “Guiding us forward?”
Ye Qing nodded his head: “To be able to release such terrifying wood-spirit energy, that being is too stron
g. It’s completely not what we’re capable of surmising. I think he should have discovered us long ago, and even … already knew our objective of this trip. Because apart from the Kunwu Divine Wood in this place, I can’t sense the auras of any other existences.”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and did not reveal a surprised expression.
The existences in this God-forbidden region were all what they were unable to imagine.
Just talking about that Deathsoul Tree, Ye Yuan could not even move a finger in front of him.
Ye Qing was the most sensitive towards wood-spirit energy. Hence, that was why he had Ye Qing lead the way.
Sure enough, before long, Ye Qing detected a powerful wood-spirit energy.
“Big Brother, I wonder whether the Kunwu Divine Wood taking the initiative to expose itself is a fiend or foe!” White Light said.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Whether friend or foe, we have to make this trip.”
…
Under Ye Qing’s lead, the party arrived under a mountain peak very soon.
Above the mountaintop, an enormous tree towered above the clouds.
That tree trunk was seemingly a heaven-supporting pillar. Even a thousand people might not be able to wrap around it either.
The thick life force made Ye Yuan and the others who were far away at the foot of the mountain feel completely relaxed and refreshed in spirit.
“Is this the Kunwu Divine Wood? What a terrifying existence!” White Light exclaimed with a sigh.
“Rumor has it that the Kunwu Divine Wood is the source of the Divine Realm’s wood-spirit energy. It can be called the World Tree and is a part of Heavenly Dao laws. This Dao Defying Pill’s pill formula that I created was originally just a fleeting and ephemeral hint of enlightenment. But now, I’m already certain that I’m adding the finishing touch to Heavenly Dao, remaking Divine Dao within my body!” Ye Yuan’s gaze radiated rays of brilliant light as he said brimming with confidence.
Ye Yuan’s words made everyone endlessly shock, especially Shi Potian. Shi Potian had experienced the Divine Dao Era before and understood Heavenly Dao’s intangibleness more than Dao Profound Realm martial artists.
But Ye Yuan actually wanted to attempt to reforge Heavenly Dao within his body!
This kind of thinking was too conceited! Too arrogant! Too insane! Too unthinkable!
But thinking carefully, they all could not help praising the brilliant idea of Ye Yuan!
Cultivating by following the routine, no one could break this Heavenly Dao’s rules at all.
This point was already proven for over 100 thousand years.
Someone as powerful as Fang Tian was also unable to break this shackle.
But, if one simulated Heavenly Dao using Alchemy Dao, remaking a Divine Dao law within the martial artist’s body, this was indeed a fantastic idea.
“Haha, a fine reforging of Divine Dao! Well-deserving of being Immortal Grove Empyrean’s successor! This kind of inconceivable thinking simply takes people’s breath away in wonder!”
A voice suddenly sounded out, giving everyone a fright.
Suddenly, Ye Yuan’s and the rest only felt a blur before their eyes. Their figures already involuntarily disappeared from where they stood.
When they appeared again, they were already on top of the mountain peak, at the foot of the large tree.
A young man was currently looking at them with a wide grin. That gaze was rather ruminating.
Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed and he asked probingly, “Could your esteemed self be … the Kunwu Divine Wood?”
The young man sized Ye Yuan up, seemingly very interested in him.
Hearing Ye Yuan asked this, the young man said with a smile, “You’re pretty good! Worthy of being Old Fart Immortal Grove’s successor! This idea of yours sounds crazy, but in fact, it’s the method that’s most likely to break Heavenly Dao shackles!”
Ye Yuan’s eyes lit up when he heard that and said, “Senior also feels that this method can work?”
“Of course! Heavenly Dao collapsed, Divine Dao dwindled to zero. No matter what method is used, it also can’t resist the decline of Heavenly Dao. But the spirit medicines that have experienced the Divine Dao Era before contains a part of Heavenly Dao. They are unable to independently resist the decline of Heavenly Dao. But if consolidating them together, there’s a possibility of constructing an independent Heavenly Dao within the martial artist’s body, breaking this shackle from there! One has to admit that this idea is very genius!” the young man said with an emotional sigh.
Hearing the other party’s words, Ye Yuan felt extremely excited.
Following his understanding of the Divine Realm becoming increasingly deeper, Ye Yuan also had more confidence in the feasibility of the Dao Defying Pill.
Since Heavenly Dao was already gone, then he would just remake Heavenly Dao!
A Heavenly Dao that belonged to him, one that only existed in his body!
This train of thought was increasingly clear.
This idea seemed to be very insane, but to Ye Yuan, it was not impossible to actualize it!
The Heavenly Dao that Ye Yuan needed to construct was not a complete Heavenly Dao.
He was just going to construct an initial-stage Grotto Profound Deity Realm’s Heavenly Dao, letting him be able to break through to Deity Realm successfully!
Previous life, this idea was still very vague. But by relying on his exceedingly high comprehensions in Alchemy Dao, he faintly sensed this existence.
One million years old spirit medicines did not just have these nine types. But these nine kinds of spirit medicines that Ye Yuan selected secretly contained Heavenly Dao.
This was the nine kinds of spirit medicines that Ye Yuan selected only after going through repeated research.
Talking about it was kind of vague and insubstantial, but by relying on his comprehension toward Alchemy Dao, Ye Yuan felt that these spirit medicines combining together would be able to achieve an unexpected effect.
In this life, Ye Yuan’s comprehension of Heavenly Dao became increasingly profound. Coupled with his understanding of the Medicine God’s Soul Canon getting increasingly deeper, Ye Yuan’s train of thoughts also became clearer and clearer.
As for how to refine, he was even more certain in his heart as well.
Therefore, that was why he wanted to enter the Godsfall Mountain Range and search for this last spirit medicine: the Kunwu Flower.
“Then Senior’s meaning is … the Dao Defying Pill can really help this Ye break through to the Deity Realm?” Ye Yuan could not refrain from asking.
The young man smiled and said, “Huhu, I didn’t say that! Whether or not you can break through, it will depend on your good fortune. This kind of thing, even if Old Fart Immortal Grove personally comes around, he also would not dare to say that it can 100% succeed. I can only say that there’s a possibility!”
Ye Yuan’s entire body trembled. The young man’s words undoubtedly boosted him much confidence.
This one before his eyes was an existence that rode above Deity Realm.
For him to say that it was possible was already extremely hard to come by.
In these 100 thousand years, no idea how many people had once attempted to break through to Deity Realm before. But they all failed without exception.
“Since that’s the case, pardon this junior for being impetuous, but I wonder if Senior can gift a Kunwu Flower.” Ye Yuan said with clasped hands.
The young man froze and suddenly burst into laughter and said, “Interesting! Really interesting! Brat, your guts … are really not small!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Not that Junior is gutsy, but that Junior is already driven to the wall! The Kunwu Flower might be very important to Senior. But to Junior, to the Divine Realm, it’s even more important! I think that since Senior is willing to show yourself and meet up, you don’t wish for the Divine Realm to fall utterly into enemy hands, right?”
From the Kunwu Divine Wood’s attitude, Y
e Yuan concluded that the other part at least did not much hostility towards him.
Otherwise, he would not talk so much rubbish.
“Heh, you, brat, are really quite interesting. No wonder Old Fart Immortal Grove picked you!”
As the young man said, he held a palm up. A pink flower appeared in his hand.
Chapter 1266. Empyrean Spirit Treasure! |
Ye Yuan’s gaze turned intent, looking at the young man in amazement.
He really did not expect that he actually obtained the Kunwu Flower so effortlessly.
Before this, Ye Yuan thought of countless possibilities and was even prepared to fight to the bitter end.
The only thing that he did not think of was that the other party actually gave it to him so magnanimously.
Receiving the Kunwu Flower, Ye Yuan even had a feeling like he was dreaming.
“Senior, this … Why?” Ye Yuan said in wonder.
The young man smiled and said, “I’ve long already found that Deathsoul Tree to be an eyesore, and you did it beautifully! In addition, I have to give face to Old Fart Immortal Grove’s successor. As for whether or not it can succeed, that will depend on you.”
Ye Yuan was stunned. He already heard ‘Immortal Grove’ this name more than once, but he did not know why this Divine Realm would be called Immortal Grove Region.
Looking at it now, this ‘Immortal Grove’ seemed to be a person’s name!
“May I ask Senior, just what is this ‘Immortal Grove’? Why do a lot of people call the Divine Realm as Immortal Grove Region?” Ye Yuan asked.
Kunwu smiled and said, “Divine Realm is just what you yourselves call it. The path of Martial Dao, the so-called Deity Realm, is merely just the starting point. The reason why the Divine Realm is called Immortal Grove Region is naturally that its sovereign is Old Fart Immortal Grove!”
“Old Fart Immortal Grove?” Ye Yuan frowned and said.
Kunwu nodded and said, “Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove is this Immortal Grove Region’s founder, and also sovereign. Cultivation reaching a certain realm, one can hew open a world. This Immortal Grove Region is the world that Old Fart Immortal Grove opened up.”
