Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

Page 306

After hearing what the Heavenly Emperor said, Ye Chen fell silent for a moment.

The disappearance of all the Dou Di (Battle Emperors) ten thousand years ago was indeed related to the invasion of the extraterrestrial evil race. And that Great Thousand Gate from back then was probably the work of some ancient emperor…

Unfortunately, even Emperor-level figures perished in that battle, and those summoned Dou Di have probably all fallen as well, including that Star Emperor.

The lessons learned from the past demonstrate just how terrifying the crises that are about to unfold in this vast world can be.

This is definitely not something a single powerful individual can handle...

The world today is much weaker than it was in ancient times. The only true powerhouses are the Green-Robed Sword Saint who established the Sword Domain and the Undying Lord who guards the seal of the Heavenly Evil God on the Northern Wilderness Hill.

Even these two individuals couldn't possibly reach the level of the Nine Emperors of ancient times...

"I wonder how that Martial Ancestor is doing now, whether he has reached the Great Thousand World..." Ye Chen felt a headache coming on.

If I were to be the only one left in the world, things would really get into big trouble!

"I suppose you're here for the legacy I left behind, young friend... With your talent and strength, the only thing that would catch your eye is probably the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique." The Heavenly Emperor looked at Ye Chen and asked with a smile.

Ye Chen didn't hide anything, nodding directly, and then said, "That's true. But what I really value is the legacy left behind by the ancient Heavenly Palace..."

Leaving aside the many relics left behind, the Milky Way alone was enough to make many super powers envious. Moreover... Ye Chen knew very well that there was an extraordinary existence in this ancient heavenly palace.

That was the scripture repository of the ancient celestial palace.

That is the true essence of the ancient Heavenly Palace!

The Myriad Transformations Star Palace is currently overflowing with low-level resources, and even Supreme Spiritual Liquid is plentiful...

However, the most advanced supernatural powers, techniques, and magical bodies are extremely rare.

Although someone like Ye Chen, who has already forged his own path, finds all of the above things dispensable, even the thirty-six peerless divine abilities like One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones are nothing special to him.

The more powerful the supernatural ability, the more difficult it is to cultivate successfully. It often requires decades or even hundreds of years of arduous cultivation and comprehension. Wouldn't it be better for Ye Chen to use that time to strengthen his Great Zhou Tian Primordial Star Array?

Only what suits you best is truly the best.

This statement is especially true for those at the peak of their power.

Ye Chen's words surprised even the Heavenly Emperor. He hadn't expected that Ye Chen only valued the legacy left behind by the ancient Heavenly Palace...

Seeing this, Ye Chen chuckled and said, "I come from a lower plane and have personally experienced the harm that those extraterrestrial evil races inflicted on the lower plane."

Upon arriving in the Great Thousand Realms, they discovered that even here, unrest prevailed. Although the Great Thousand Palace guarded the west of the Great Thousand Realms, and the sword domain of the peak expert, the Azure-Robed Sword Saint, was located in the east…

However, the borders between the northern and southern parts of the Great Thousand World and the extraterrestrial evil races remain chaotic, constantly suffering invasions from the extraterrestrial evil races.

After I increased my strength, I originally planned to go to the far north of the Great Thousand Worlds to establish a war fortress and confront those extraterrestrial evil races...

Unfortunately, my current foundation is too weak, I lack manpower, and the experts around me are somewhat inferior, so I have no choice but to stay on this Tianluo Continent.

After saying that, Ye Chen paused for a moment, and then continued, "However, this ancient heavenly palace has given me an opportunity. If I can obtain these resources, the power I have will be able to take shape quickly, and I will be more confident in the future."

Ye Chen wasn't just saying nice things to the Heavenly Emperor; he had always planned to do just that.

If it weren't for the fact that Cai Die, Zi Yan, and Jing Lian hadn't fully transformed into Heavenly Sovereigns due to insufficient resources, he would have already gone to the north of the Great Thousand World to quell the arrogance of those extraterrestrial evil races.

Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the Heavenly Emperor's expression turned serious. He looked at Ye Chen and said, "I didn't expect you to have such ambitions, young friend. If you can truly achieve it, it will be a great blessing for the entire world!"

After a moment's contemplation, the Heavenly Emperor said, "With your strength, young friend, you probably wouldn't stoop to inheriting my old path. In that case, I'll place my entire legacy within this Heavenly Emperor Sword and entrust it to you for safekeeping. If someone manages to cultivate an immortal golden body in the future, they could become my successor..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Heavenly Emperor pointed his Heavenly Emperor Sword at the sky, and countless rays of light appeared instantly, eventually coalescing into a magnificent golden stele ten thousand feet tall in front of him.

"This is the boundary marker of this world. After refining it, young friend, you will become the ruler of this world..."

"The ancient celestial palace is history, and it has completed its mission. Rather than letting it gradually weather away in this void, it is better to let it make a contribution to this vast world."

"Young friend, everything here is now in your hands."

"The responsibility for this vast world rests on the shoulders of your generation..."

The Heavenly Emperor's voice gradually faded, and the entire space was filled with a strange sense of sadness.

The next moment, the Heavenly Emperor's gaze turned to the petite figure behind Ye Chen, and then a complex expression of deep attachment and sadness welled up in his eyes.

"Mandala, it's so good to see you safe and sound."

Mandala stared blankly at the Heavenly Emperor, her eyes suddenly turning red, clearly indicating that she was also extremely agitated.

She walked forward step by step, past Ye Chen, and reached out her small hand to hold the Heavenly Emperor's hand.

The Heavenly Emperor gently patted her head, just as he had gently stroked that withering flower years ago.

"Young friend, if possible in the future, please take good care of her..."

If the evil race from beyond the realm were to make a comeback in the future, Mandala would likely not be as fortunate as it was when the Heavenly Palace was destroyed.

Ye Chen nodded slightly, his expression solemn as he agreed. Upon hearing the Heavenly Emperor's words, tears welled up in Mandala's eyes and instantly streamed down her face.

Having explained everything, the Heavenly Emperor finally turned his gaze to another place.

There, Lu Huan, the former master of the Holy Demon Palace and the Holy Demon Emperor, looked at the Heavenly Emperor with a fearful expression. When he met the latter's gaze, he trembled all over.

He was already terrified when the Heavenly Emperor appeared and was ready to run away, but when

When he tried to take action, he found that he couldn't even move a single finger...

He didn't know when it started, but he was locked in by a terrifying aura, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, and he couldn't escape at all!

"You wicked beast, it was one thing to flee from battle back then, but you were even swayed by that demon and tried to help him break free from the seal. You are truly guilty of heinous crimes."

The indifferent voice descended, terrifying Lu Huan to the point of losing his mind. He immediately disregarded everything else, and the demonic energy within him erupted, transforming into a jet-black dragon...

Lu Huan's original form was an ancient blood dragon, but now, corrupted by demonic energy, he has transformed into a demonic dragon. Even so, he still cannot escape the fate of being suppressed, and even after stirring up all the demonic energy in his body, he is still unable to move.

Before he could beg for mercy, a crystal-like light descended from the sky.

A sharp sword aura pierced through the heavens and earth, and an ancient crystal sword fell down, instantly piercing the head of the demonic dragon and pinning it firmly to the ground.

A powerful burst of sword energy erupted, instantly turning the enormous dragon's body into a pile of minced meat, and even destroying its divine soul at the same time.

Then, the Heavenly Emperor's indifferent gaze fell upon the Devouring Demon Emperor within the seal.

Seemingly sensing the impending destruction, the Devouring Demon Emperor roared madly, revealing a look of panic and fear.

However, the Heavenly Emperor paid no heed and once again unleashed the Heavenly Emperor Sword, which transformed into countless stars that fell to the ground, each star containing an extremely terrifying power.

Although the Heavenly Emperor is now merely a remnant of his spirit, with the power of the Heavenly Emperor Sword, he is still capable of destroying the sealed body of the Demon Emperor.

Chi Chi!

In an instant, countless stars tore apart the sealed demonic face, and faintly, an extremely mournful roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"Don't be so smug. Last time, my extraterrestrial race didn't even use its full strength. When we come back next time, it will be the end of your Great Thousand World!"

The roar of mourning echoed between heaven and earth, and at this moment, the Devouring Demon Emperor was completely wiped out of all life force, turning into nothingness and dissipating into the world.

However, his words left everyone present feeling uneasy, as if they were worried about a possible major battle in the future.

A hint of worry flashed in the Heavenly Emperor's eyes, but now that he was just a blur, there was nothing he could do...

After a slight sigh, the Heavenly Emperor looked at Ye Chen and said, "Young friend, from now on, this vast world will depend on you..."

After speaking, the Heavenly Emperor glanced at Mandala, who was holding his hand, with infinite tenderness in his eyes. He gently patted her head like a daughter, and then transformed into a stream of light, merging into the Heavenly Emperor Sword.

Everyone who witnessed this scene felt a deep sense of sorrow, and Mandala was already weeping uncontrollably.

Ye Chen looked at the Heavenly Emperor Sword floating in front of him, shook his head slightly and sighed, then said to Mandala, "Don't be sad. Although the Heavenly Emperor has fallen, he hasn't truly disappeared. Perhaps you'll see him again when the true successor of the Heavenly Emperor appears in the future..."

The petite Mandala sniffled like a real little girl, then rubbed her eyes, wiped away her tears, nodded, and said, "I know... I will definitely help the Heavenly Emperor find his true successor..."

After saying that, he looked seriously into Ye Chen's eyes.

Ye Chen chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, I also promised Senior Heavenly Emperor that I would not stop you."

If Mu Chen really does appear in this life, Ye Chen wouldn't mind helping him out... After all, he is the one who inherited the strongest divine vein of the Futu Ancient Clan, and is destined to become a strongman.

With just a little training, he could become a leading figure in the future when facing the evil races from beyond the realm, so Ye Chen naturally wouldn't let him go unchecked.

Next, Ye Chen easily refined the boundary marker, opened the Heavenly Emperor's Mausoleum space, and released all the Earthly Sovereigns and their subordinate forces.

The departure of these people will surely spread everything that happened today, and Ye Chen and the Myriad Transformations Star Palace will become famous throughout the Tianluo Continent and even the entire Great Thousand World in the shortest possible time.

However, Ye Chen wasn't in a hurry... He'd let the dust settle first...

He personally stabilized the entire Ancient Heavenly Palace space and strengthened its spatial intensity, so that even supreme experts from places like Mandala could enter other parts of the Ancient Heavenly Palace.

In the following period, Mandala, Liu Tiandao and others' main task was to clear out the ruins of the ancient heavenly palace, repair the broken spirit arrays that needed to be repaired, and destroy the ones that needed to be destroyed. They also cleared out the five palaces and nine mansions and received the legacy they left behind to strengthen themselves.

Liu Tiandao and his group worked very hard on these matters, especially those things that could enhance their own strength and influence; they were all extremely enthusiastic about them.

There was no way around it; Ye Chen's words about heading to the far north of the Great Thousand World to confront the extraterrestrial evil race had truly startled them all, leaving them completely unprepared.

Of these people, apart from the little girl Mandala, probably none of them wanted to cause trouble for those extraterrestrial evil races. Normally, they would avoid such things as much as possible...

Unfortunately, this is not something they can decide; everything depends on the decision of their own Palace Master.

All they can do is quickly improve their strength and prepare more backup plans so that they have more ways to save their lives when they encounter danger in the future.

What they didn't know was that Ye Chen never intended to face the extraterrestrial evil race with their limited strength. They would only be cannon fodder, and even a powerful demon king could wipe them out.

The main purpose of subduing these guys is to get them to help me guard the rear, and that's enough.

When the time comes, the ones who can truly turn the tide will be myself and the three of them, including Cai Die... Well, if Zi'er cultivates fast enough, she will also be a considerable fighting force.

However, these things are not urgent for now; he still needs to make sufficient preparations... such as going to the Fire Spirit Clan to "borrow" their ancestral fire, which has existed since ancient times.

Currently, Ye Chen's Strange Fire Plaza only needs one powerful divine fire as its main fire to reach its perfect state. At that time, it will be comparable to the Heavenly Emperor Sword of the Heavenly Emperor at its peak, the Ancestral Pagoda of the Futu Ancient Clan, and the Maha Yin-Yang Bottle of the Maha Ancient Clan.

However, as Ye Chen and the others were sorting out the affairs of the Ancient Heavenly Palace, and as news from within the Ancient Heavenly Palace continued to spread, the group of people who were originally behind the scenes on the Tianluo Continent began to get restless...

Chapter 599 Deterrence

As one of the top ten super continents in the Great Thousand Worlds, Tianluo Continent was naturally coveted by many after the fall of the ancient Heavenly Palace.

After all, the higher the level of a power, the more powerful individuals it needs to support. A medium-sized continent might not even be able to support a Heavenly Sovereign, so it would be impossible for a very powerful power to emerge.

Given the size of the Tianluo Continent, if any force were to truly control the entire territory, it could at least produce one super powerhouse at the level of a Ninth Emperor, and also accommodate three to five Heavenly Sovereigns. This is precisely its advantage as a supercontinent.

If the ancient Heavenly Palace hadn't been established for a short time, and hadn't given the Heavenly Emperor too much time to train his subordinates, then with a peak super strongman like the Heavenly Emperor in charge, plus several Palace Masters who had broken through to the Heavenly Supreme level, how could a mere Devouring Demon Emperor and the Devouring Demon Clan have possibly breached the ancient Heavenly Palace!

However, it was precisely because there were too many super powers coveting the Tianluo Continent that they all had reservations and dared not go all out. In the end, they could only make an agreement that the Heavenly Sovereigns could not take action themselves, but could only send their proxies to compete for control of the continent.

Just like the three overlords of the Northern Region, each of them has a super power behind them.

However, the super powers behind these three major forces are not among the top super powers, so in the end they can only compete for power in the Northern Region.

In the five regions of Tianluo Continent, except for the Northern Region, the other four regions are in the same situation, especially the Central Region, where five top super forces are vying for supremacy.

After Ye Chen's fame spread through this exploration of the Heavenly Palace, the most anxious were the forces behind the three overlords of the Northern Region...

After all, the Myriad Transformations Star Palace is located in the Northern Realm, and the Northern Realm belongs to the Northern Region.

Ye Chen had not previously revealed his intention to unify the Tianluo Continent, and other top super powers did not believe he could do it, but the Northern Region was definitely part of his plan.

Upon returning to the Northern Region, True Monarch Ziyun, Emperor Jin Diao, and the other two immediately relayed the message to their respective super powers. Whether to fight or make peace still needed to be decided by these individuals.

Soon, they received replies from their respective backers, but the content of these replies left all three of them somewhat puzzled.

Several days later, True Monarch Ziyun, Emperor Jin Diao, and Venerable Leiyin gathered in the Northern Plains.

The so-called Northern Plains is a large plain located in the southwest of the Northern Region, in the middle of the three forces. Every Northern Region Conference is held here.

Only those bearing the insignia of the three overlords are allowed to enter the Northern Plains. If other forces enter, it indicates their intention to participate in the struggle for supremacy in the Northern Plains.

Then you can only fight your way in from the edge of the Northern Plains. As long as you can fight your way into the depths of the Northern Plains and reach the battlefield where the three hegemons are vying for power, then you will be qualified to compete with the three hegemons.

The decision made by the people behind the three major forces was for them to jointly invite the Myriad Transformations Star Palace to the Northern Plains to gain the qualification to compete for supremacy.

Of course, this is on the premise that Ye Chen, the Heavenly Sovereign, cannot participate; otherwise, the three super powers will also make their move simultaneously...

To put it bluntly, they just wanted to give Ye Chen and the Myriad Transformations Star Palace a shock, to make them realize their own strength, and that just because you've reached the Heavenly Sovereign level doesn't mean you can do whatever you want in the Northern Region.

Faced with the attacks from the three overlords of the Northern Region, the Myriad Transformations Star Palace would naturally not back down.

"War! We must fight! And we must show the glory of my Myriad Transformations Star Palace!" Zhu Kun said in a deep voice, his eyes burning with determination.

The remaining Mandala, Liu Tiandao, and the others were naturally full of confidence as well.

Although the three dominant forces have more Earthly Sovereigns at the Great Perfection level than they do, they still do not believe that their side will lose.

Looking at the eager crowd, Ye Chen chuckled and said, "If that's the case, then let's fight!"

"However, unless a Heavenly Sovereign joins the battle, I will not intervene. Do you still have confidence?"
