Primordial Star Scripture

After stepping from Martial Arts\' first major realm, the "True Qi Realm," into the second major realm, the "Spirit Sea Realm," the rewards were indeed tremendous!

Ye Chen felt the changes in his strength and nodded in satisfaction.

"However."

At this moment, as he sized up the vast Spirit Sea newly formed within his Qi Sea Acupoint and the Gang Yuan True Qi Spirit Liquid within the Spirit Sea that shimmered with silver light, Ye Chen showed a hint of surprise.

"Even after absorbing so much Gang Yuan True Qi, the \'True Thunder Extreme Change,\' the fifth layer of the \'Gang Yuan Chapter\' of Primordial Star Scripture, still hasn\'t triggered any True Thunder Induction!"

Ye Chen had already successfully cultivated the first four layers of the Gang Yuan Chapter: Meridian Refining Art, Gang Yuan Mantra, Gang Qi Transformation, and Void Instantaneous Change, but he had always been unable to cultivate the fifth layer.

According to the fifth layer, "True Thunder Extreme Change," one must accumulate an extreme amount of Gang Yuan True Qi in the Qi Sea Acupoint until True Thunder Induction is generated within the body. Only then can one draw upon Nine Heavens True Thunder to strike the Gang Yuan True Qi, causing an extreme transformation of the Qi and stepping into the second chapter of Primordial Star Scripture.

Ye Chen had thought that reaching the twelfth layer of True Qi would fulfill the requirement for the maximum quantity of Gang Yuan True Qi, but even after entering the twelfth layer, he still hadn\'t triggered any True Thunder Induction.

Now, after breaking through from the twelfth layer of True Qi to the initial phase of Spirit Sea Realm, the Gang Yuan True Qi within his body had increased hundreds of times, transforming into droplets of liquid Gang Yuan True Qi Spirit Liquid, and yet there was still no sign of True Thunder Induction.

This was indeed surprising for Ye Chen!

Could it be that the amount of Gang Yuan True Qi in his body hadn\'t yet reached its limit?

Did he need to further increase the amount of Gang Yuan True Qi?

Ye Chen pondered.

After all, the Primordial Star Scripture, this Supreme Divine Art, offers tremendous benefits across the first four layers of the "Gang Yuan Chapter." Whether it\'s cultivating the Thirty-Three Meridian Wheels with Meridian Refining Art, cultivating Gang Yuan True Qi with the Gang Yuan Mantra, transforming Gang Yuan True Qi with the Gang Qi Transformation, or mastering the Void Instantaneous Change that enables instantaneous movement, each layer brought him immense gains.

Naturally, Ye Chen wanted to complete the cultivation of the fifth layer as soon as possible.

Not only did he want to complete the cultivation of these five layers, but Ye Chen was also eager to see what the second chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture would be like after the "Gang Yuan Chapter."

Just the foundational "Gang Yuan Chapter" was so powerful; once he entered the second floor of Starlight Tower and obtained the second chapter\'s Cultivation Technique hidden there, his strength would likely improve dramatically once again!

Ye Chen clearly remembered the message left by the owner of Starlight Tower, "Zi Ji Star Lord," which stated that if he cultivated up to the fourth chapter of Primordial Star Scripture, he would be powerful enough to dominate a world—Ye Chen naturally aspired to reach that level of power as soon as possible!

"Forget it, if the Gang Yuan True Qi is still insufficient to produce True Thunder Induction, then I\'ll just continue to increase the Gang Yuan True Qi. After all, entering the Spirit Sea Realm means that I still have to continue cultivating True Qi."

After some thought, Ye Chen decided to put this worry aside for now.

Although he hadn\'t yet induced True Thunder, Ye Chen had a premonition that he wasn\'t far from triggering True Thunder Induction within his body!

"Right now, entering Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb is the priority!"

After stepping into the Spirit Sea Realm, Ye Chen finally met the requirements to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!

He could finally explore the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb with Jiang Yao!

"After this exploration of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb is over, I\'ll also be qualified to attend the Spirit Sea Realm Sword Fighting Tournament!"

Ye Chen smiled lightly.

Having stepped into the Spirit Sea Realm, he had met the requirements for both the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb and the Sword Fighting Tournament.

This eased his mind considerably.

"Let\'s go, Jiang Yao and the Peak Master must be getting anxious waiting for me!"

Ye Chen had been cultivating in Ascending Spirit Valley, undergoing the breakthrough to the Spirit Sea Realm, and then comprehending the changes in his body— a phase during which, of course, no one would disturb him.

Now that he had fully comprehended all the changes post-breakthrough, there was no need to stay in Ascending Spirit Valley any longer.

With a thought, Ye Chen laughed as he flew into the sky, heading towards Jiang Yao and Fairy Jia Luo waiting in the skies at the outer edges of Ascending Spirit Valley.

"He\'s out!"

"Ye Chen has successfully completed his realm breakthrough and has finally emerged!"

As soon as Ye Chen stood up from his meditative posture and began to fly through the valley using his Flight Divine Ability, Jiang Yao, Fairy Jia Luo, and the nine Elders were all excited.

They had personally witnessed the extraordinary phenomena of Ye Chen\'s realm breakthrough and saw how he absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Cloud from a radius of seventy-two miles into his body.

Just think about the extent of Ye Chen\'s strength increase with seventy-two miles of Heaven and Earth Spirit Cloud!

While Ye Chen was still in the valley comprehending the various gains from his elevated realm, they naturally wouldn\'t interrupt, but as soon as Ye Chen flew out of the valley, they couldn\'t contain their excitement and all headed towards him.

"Ye Chen!"

The girl Jiang Yao, dressed in a white pleated skirt, with her hair cascading to her waist like a waterfall, and her face exquisite and absolutely beautiful, with clear and moving eyes, was the first to fly in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled at Jiang Yao and took the girl\'s small hand into his palm.

At this moment, Fairy Jia Luo and the nine great elders also descended beside the two of them.

Looking at Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, all nine great elders nodded with smiles.

These two youngsters were indeed the great hope of the Taixuan Sect!

Fairy Jia Luo\'s face also revealed a faint smile as she looked at Ye Chen and said, "Ye Chen, congratulations on entering the Spirit Sea Realm! You said before that you wanted to go to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb with Yao\'er, and I didn\'t believe you could enter the Spirit Sea so quickly. To my surprise, in the blink of an eye, you have become a master of the Spirit Sea Realm!"

"The exploration of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb begins in five days. Are you ready to compete with the talents from the great sects—even those from fifth-rank great sects?"

The exploration of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb starts in five days!

Fairy Jia Luo\'s words filled Ye Chen\'s heart with a surge of lofty ambition. In the past, he had only interacted with the talents from the eastern region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, and had only traveled within that region\'s boundaries.

In five days, he would head to the Demon Burial Abyss in the northern region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, where the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb was located, and compete with disciples from the sixth-rank and fifth-rank great sects of the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom for the tomb\'s legacy treasures and opportunities. Naturally, this made Ye Chen quite excited.

"Peak Master, rest assured, once we enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, those fifth-rank sect disciples better not provoke us. If they try to bully us, they will likely suffer for it," Ye Chen said with a light smile.

Seeing the confidence in Ye Chen\'s smile, Fairy Jia Luo nodded unconsciously.

Even before Ye Chen had entered the Spirit Sea Realm, he had fought Xue Jia to a standstill, who was at the half-step Rotating Pill strength. Now that he had entered the Spirit Sea Realm, of course, she felt even more relieved about Ye Chen\'s strength.

Having Ye Chen accompany Jiang Yao to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, she felt much more at ease.

"Alright, let\'s return to Snowdrift Peak. Five days will pass quickly, and we need to make good preparations before heading to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!"

...

As Ye Chen completed his breakthrough into the Spirit Sea Realm and returned to Snowdrift Peak, where he and Jiang Yao, along with the other top ten disciples from the Taixuan Sect\'s Spirit Ranking, were making final preparations to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, other great sects were also in the midst of their final preparations to enter the tomb.

Within the northern region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, the fifth-rank great sect "Cloud Sky Sect."

As the most powerful sect in the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom, which had once even been a fourth-rank sect, the Cloud Sky Sect still had two strong late-stage Rotating Pill practitioners in charge.

At present, within the most secretive cave abode of Cloud Sky Sect, the two late-stage Rotating Pill practitioners, "Daoist Yunyang" and "Daoist Yun Fang," were sitting in the uppermost seats, with thirty disciples standing firmly before them.

These thirty disciples were the ones chosen to represent the Cloud Sky Sect in the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!

Among these thirty, there were as many as eighteen half-step Rotating Pill powerhouses, and the remaining twelve were all late-stage Spirit Sea Realm masters.

A fifth-rank great sect indeed had profound foundations!

At this moment, Daoist Yunyang looked at the thirty disciples with an extremely stern expression and said, "The Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb was left behind by our sect\'s ancestor \'Heavenly Saint Linghua.\' It\'s natural that we obtain the majority of his legacy treasures!"

"Our Cloud Sky Sect is the strongest in the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom. Although only those at the Spirit Sea Realm can enter the tomb, when it comes to strength at the Spirit Sea Realm, other sects cannot compare with us."

"Remember, the Heavenly Saint relics are each incredibly precious. By whatever means necessary, you must secure many of them for me! Whoever obtains the most valuable Heavenly Saint relics, I will accept as my direct disciple and will teach them three Heaven Rank Great Divine Powers!"

Boom!

Daoist Yunyang\'s words ignited a fiery look in the eyes of every disciple in the cave abode.

To become a direct disciple of a late-stage Rotating Pill powerhouse and also receive three Heaven Rank Great Divine Powers was a reward that would allow them to walk proudly in the Cloud Sky Sect and even in the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom!

Not to mention, according to the rules of treasure hunting in the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, they could keep half of the legacy treasures for themselves!

"The legacy treasures of Heavenly Saint Linghua must belong to our Cloud Sky Sect; we will strive with all our might to seize them!"

Thirty Cloud Sky Sect disciples declared in unison.

In the western region of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, the fifth-rank great sect Flame Sect.

At this moment, within the cave abode of "Daoist Chi Mei," a late-stage Rotating Pill powerhouse of the Flame Sect, more than a dozen half-step Rotating Pill disciples were standing.

As Daoist Chi Mei was speaking to these half-step Rotating Pill disciples, a young man dressed in a flame-colored Daoist robe suddenly walked into the cave abode.

The youth appeared to be seventeen or eighteen years old, and his realm seemed to be only mid-stage Spirit Sea Realm, but upon seeing this young man, even the half-step Rotating Pill disciples in the cave abode changed their expressions.

Clearly, this youngster had an extraordinary background!

"Yan\'er, you\'ve finally come out of cultivation. The exploration of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb is about to start!" Seeing the flame-robed youth, Daoist Chi Mei\'s smile couldn\'t be contained. He waved his hand to have the other half-step Rotating Pill disciples leave the cave, leaving only the flame-robed youth inside.

"How about it, Yan\'er, have you successfully refined the \'Soul-devouring True Fire\'?" Daoist Chi Mei asked the flame-robed youth.

The flame-robed youth extended his palm, and in the center, a cluster of purple flames gently pulsed. The youth spoke indifferently, "Master, rest assured, on this trip to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, no one will be a match for Yan\'er!"

This youth was none other than Liu Yan, the renowned genius of the entire fifth-rank great sect "Flame Sect." He had the strength to suppress half-step Rotating Pill powerhouses while only at mid-stage Spirit Sea Realm and was also the direct disciple of Daoist Chi Mei!
