Primordial Star Scripture

"But why lure you into the tomb if he died there? If he truly wished to kill you, with the means of a Heavenly Saint, even in death, once you entered the tomb, he could have easily killed you. Why then would he set up various sites with Legacy Treasures, allowing you to be tested on the peripheral islands, then enter Central Sea Island, and even come into Azure Blue Mansion?"

After listening to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao\'s descriptions of entering the tomb, Phoenix Spirit was also unclear about what the owner of the tomb, Heavenly Saint Moya, was planning.

Ye Chen and Jiang Yao shook their heads as well.

Phoenix Spirit didn\'t understand, and neither did they.

However, all three were aware that Heavenly Saint Moya probably didn\'t have any good intentions.

In the end, Phoenix Spirit said, "Don\'t worry too much. Even if Heavenly Saint Moya was very powerful, even when he was alive, he couldn\'t breach Azure Blue Mansion."

"If it weren\'t for the fact that Zhu Er is a guard of the Central Mansion of Azure Blue Mansion and cannot leave, it could help you deal with any crisis at any time."

"Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, how about this, after the one-month prohibition period is up, if you have both completed your Cultivation, you can carry Azure Blue Mansion with you as you continue to explore the ancient tomb to uncover Moya\'s true plans.

Moya is indeed a sworn enemy of your thirteen countries of the Southern Territory, and it\'s essential to understand his intentions before emerging from the tomb."

"If you encounter an opponent you cannot defeat, directly enter Azure Blue Mansion. Although you can only stay inside for a month at a time, it\'s accessible multiple times."

"If that opponent dares to pursue you into Azure Blue Mansion, Zhu Er will directly kill them. If they don\'t enter, then you\'ll be safe inside."

"If Jiang Yao hasn\'t fully awakened her Bloodline Secret Skills at that time, then Ye Chen, you should carry Azure Blue Mansion alone to be prepared for any dangers."

"I see you have a spatial ring, and although you haven\'t reached the Heavenly Saint Realm, it will be difficult to take Azure Blue Mansion with you. However, I will initiate the Spatial Ban inside Azure Blue Mansion to assist you in obtaining it. This Treasure, since it has fallen into your hands, must not be left here, no matter what!"

Phoenix Spirit was suggesting plans to the two of them.

Ye Chen and Jiang Yao looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

With Azure Blue Mansion here, they indeed gained a significant advantage. Although Azure Blue Mansion can\'t be used for direct combat, it is an excellent place for defense.

If they encounter insurmountable danger while exploring the ancient tomb, they can simply continue to cultivate inside Azure Blue Mansion until they are strong enough to leave the tomb!

With the presence of a Sky-shocking Giant Spider that could even suppress Heavenly Saint Moya, staying in Azure Blue Mansion is the safest option.

Moreover, with the Heavenly Saint Law Bead in Ye Chen\'s possession, he isn\'t too afraid of the ancient tomb!

"Alright, we can discuss the tomb later. Focus on cultivating now!"

"Only with great strength can you be fearless of everything!"

"This Heavenly Saint Moya may be a ruler in the Lower Realm, but in the Upper Realm, he is just a minor figure."

"Jiang Yao, go to the \'Phoenix Blood Pool\' to cultivate. Ye Chen, you go too. After I make arrangements for Jiang Yao, I will send you into another Secret Cave for cultivation!" Phoenix Spirit called out to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.

Ye Chen and Jiang Yao both nodded in response.

Boom!

Seeing the two nod, Phoenix Spirit\'s feather, emitting an Ice-Blue Divine Light, flapped gently. Enveloped by the light, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao disappeared from the grand hall of the Central Mansion.

...

Outside Azure Blue Mansion.

Several hundred yards away from Azure Blue Mansion, a golden Demon Carp was gazing languidly at the dark gates of Azure Blue Mansion.

"One month inside Azure Blue Mansion for adventure."

"I wonder how many of these people will make it out alive!"

"Tiger Demon Teng mentioned that many should perish to select the finest individuals for sacrifice to the Heavenly Saint Lord!"

"Wait, after one month passes, I will know who has caught the eye of Tiger Demon Teng!"

"If the death toll isn\'t high enough, continue to send them into the second and third death traps!"

The golden Demon Carp muttered to itself.

It could never have imagined that among the individuals who entered the ancient tomb, there would be someone like Jiang Yao, whose background was connected to Azure Blue Mansion!

Let alone the Demon Carp, even Heavenly Saint Moya, who originally constructed the tomb, would never have guessed that the Azure Blue Mansion he stumbled upon contained Phoenix Spirit and an unknown Divine Phoenix Clan heritage related to Jiang Yao!

Azure Blue Mansion did not become a trial for Ye Chen and Jiang Yao; instead, it provided them a tremendous boost!

...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Outside the Outer Mansion of Azure Blue Mansion, countless people died fighting the guardians in the Secret Caves, while many more were still adventuring through the caves, hoping to discover Treasures left behind.

They believed that even someone as powerful as the owner of the tomb couldn\'t have explored every cave, so there must be Treasures that were overlooked that they could acquire.

While these people were still embarking on their adventures, suddenly, they felt an earth-shattering howling coming from the numerous caves. Amidst this deafening sound, fierce winds swirled, expelling all the Tomb Explorers from the cave passages and hurling them back into the grand hall of the Outer Mansion!

Of the thirty-five people who entered the caves, twenty-seven returned to the grand hall. Besides Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, who proceeded to the Inner Mansion, the other six perished during their explorations.

These twenty-seven people, swept out of the caves by the fierce winds, were terrified. They could sense that the winds could have easily killed them.

But the winds didn\'t kill them; instead, they were brought back to the grand hall.

After several attempts to re-enter the caves proved futile, these people finally gave up. They realized that the winds from the caves did not wish them to enter any longer.

What these people didn\'t know was that Phoenix Spirit had learned that these Tomb Explorers had been deceived into entering the tomb by Heavenly Saint Moya; naturally, she wouldn\'t allow them to continue adventuring in the caves.

Phoenix Spirit didn\'t want them to perish at the hands of the guardian giant spiders in the caves, nor did she want them to obtain Treasures from there without deserving them.

So, she expelled them all from the caves and transported them back to the grand hall of the Outer Mansion.

They would wait there until a month had passed, at which point they would be automatically sent out of Azure Blue Mansion.

"Why is it just us few?"

The twenty-seven people, having returned to the Outer Mansion\'s grand hall, glanced at each other. Fairy Nishang, Liu Yan, Yun Luo, Xue Yue, and others were all among them.

But they discovered that, after returning to the grand hall, many among those who had ventured into the Secret Cave were missing.

"Could it be, the others all died at the hands of the cave\'s guardian, that giant spider?"

Thinking back to the giant spider they had confronted in the cave, they all still felt some lingering fear.

"Where\'s Ye Chen?"

"Ye Chen is so powerful, he couldn\'t possibly have died at the hands of the giant spider, right? Could it be he was too reckless?"

"And Jiang Yao isn\'t back either!"

When they saw that both Ye Chen and Jiang Yao were not transported out of the grand hall, the expressions of everyone there began to change.

After some contemplation, still clueless about what had happened to Ye Chen and the others, they couldn\'t return to the Secret Cave of the Outer Mansion anymore.

In the end, the people, whose expressions kept changing, could only sit down in the grand hall of the Outer Mansion and start cultivating, waiting for the day when they could leave the Azure Blue Mansion.

...

What these people didn\'t know was that not only were Ye Chen and Jiang Yao safe and sound, they had even entered the Inner Mansion of the Azure Blue Mansion, a place that not even Heavenly Saint Moya had been able to enter!

While the other Tomb Explorers were being transferred back to the grand hall of the Outer Mansion, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao had already arrived beside a pool several hundred feet in diameter in the Inner Mansion.

This pool had a blood-drop-shaped bead the size of a fist floating above it. The bead was crystal clear and ice blue, almost like an Ice-Blue Divine Crystal!

Droplets of ice-blue liquid constantly fell from the bead, dripping into the pool below.

Looking into the pool, you could see that the entire pool was imbued with a divine and mysterious ice-blue color, radiating a faint ice-blue light.

If anyone recognized the blood-drop-shaped ice-blue bead above, they would definitely know that this bead was none other than the strange treasure of the Divine Phoenix Clan—the blood of the Ice Phoenix!

And below the Ice Phoenix blood was the Phoenix Blood Pool, where Jiang Yao was about to undergo the awakening of her bloodline!

"This is the Phoenix Blood Pool."

"Jiang Yao, enter the Phoenix Blood Pool and start the awakening of your bloodline!"

Feng Ling floated next to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, speaking to them both.

Jiang Yao took a deep breath, approached the Phoenix Blood Pool, and felt her entire bloodline inside her body leaping with joy—clearly, the Phoenix Blood Pool held an inexplicable attraction to her bloodline!

She couldn\'t wait to enter and see what her bloodline secret skills would look like after awakening!

"Ye Chen, I\'m going to cultivate now."

Jiang Yao took Ye Chen\'s hand and spoke to him.

Ye Chen smiled and nodded his head.

After looking at Ye Chen and Feng Ling once more, Jiang Yao no longer hesitated; she turned her slender figure towards the Phoenix Blood Pool, lightly leaped, and flew into the midst of the pool.

The moment the young girl entered the Phoenix Blood Pool, her waterfall-like black hair floated on the surface of the water, while most of her body submerged into the pool.

Then, a marvelous thing happened—the numerous strands of ice-blue droplets in the pool started to spread towards Jiang Yao, gradually enveloping her in a rising ice-blue aura, now covering her entire body.

Standing by the pool, Ye Chen could even faintly hear the mystical and incredible sound of a phoenix\'s cry coming from the Phoenix Blood Pool!

After waiting by the pool for a long time and seeing that Jiang Yao had fully entered the state of cultivating her bloodline awakening, Feng Ling spoke to Ye Chen again, "Ye Chen, let\'s go as well, I\'ll take you to the cultivation chamber."

Ye Chen took one last look at Jiang Yao in the Phoenix Blood Pool and nodded.

...

"This is the Inner Mansion\'s cultivation chamber; you can practice here."

When Feng Ling brought Ye Chen into the cultivation chamber, the sight of this grand chamber that spanned several hundred feet completely stunned him.

He saw that the walls of the chamber were constructed of blocks of aqua blue Spirit Stones, which felt to Ye Chen as if they were just like the Fire Elemental Spirit Stone he had obtained on the peripheral islands, also brimming with True Qi.

Ye Chen had obtained a piece of Fire Elemental Spirit Stone and couldn\'t completely absorb all the True Qi within it, but this Azure Blue Mansion\'s Inner Mansion cultivation chamber was actually constructed with countless blocks of Spirit Stones of the same grade, and the True Qi inside was astonishingly plentiful!

Ye Chen also noticed that these Spirit Stones seemed to generate True Qi by themselves, as he breathed in the True Qi of the chamber, he couldn\'t see any reduction in True Qi from the stones!

Such extravagance!

This was absolutely extravagant!

Practicing in this chamber, one wouldn\'t have to worry about running out of True Qi; perhaps even after a hundred years, it wouldn\'t be possible to completely absorb the True Qi of these Spirit Stones!

"Ye Chen, this chamber is specifically for our clan\'s disciples to cultivate in tranquility; you can comfortably practice here," Feng Ling said to Ye Chen, "Instructions for opening and closing the chamber\'s formation are explained in the bamboo slips here, once you\'re done cultivating, come out of the chamber, and I\'ll meet with you again."

"Thank you, Senior Feng Ling," Ye Chen expressed his gratitude to Feng Ling, then walked into the chamber.

After that, Feng Ling no longer disrupted Ye Chen\'s cultivation and left the chamber.

Boom!

Once Feng Ling had left, Ye Chen followed the instructions on the bamboo slips in the chamber, sealed the chamber, and then sat down to begin his practice.

"Finally, I can fully concentrate on breaking through the last step of the first chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture, the \'Gang Yuan Chapter\'—True Thunder Extreme Change!"

"Who knows what the second chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture will be like! What kind of cultivation technique it will be!"

Ye Chen, who sat down, had an immeasurable expectation in his eyes.

He was looking forward to completing the True Thunder Extreme Change, entering the Starlight Tower again, and obtaining an even stronger second chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture!

After muttering to himself, Ye Chen finally calmed his mind and spirit, closed his eyes, and profoundly entered the tranquil state necessary for the breakthrough.
