Returning to where the Archaic Beast was.
The Archaic Beast’s body, although it had become whole again.
But.
Its size had shrunk by two-thirds.
Even though it still appeared as towering as a mountain, it no longer had its former majesty.
Outwardly strong but inwardly weak, that was all there was to it.
Luo Tian retracted his Domain World.
The Archaic Beast immediately roared with anger and charged at them.
Luo Tian suddenly swung his sword with a slash.
The Archaic Beast flicked its arm.
"Boom!"
Luo Tian’s body was directly blown away.
"Take a punch from Master Fatty!"
Fatty also charged over.
The result was self-evident.
Even the godly Luo Tian was no match for the Archaic Beast, Fatty was directly beaten and cried out.
Liu Mubai was very sensible.
He did not participate!
Ye Chen waved his hand.
With a surge of power, he tossed the beaten Fatty aside.
"Buzz!"
Intense power surged around Ye Chen.
A divine phantom appeared.
In an instant.
A total of eighteen streams of Divine Power were bestowed upon Ye Chen.
Previously.
Some of the Divine Cores were used up.
But recently, Ye Chen occasionally replenished some Divine Cores.
Thus.
He now had a total of eighteen Divine Cores!
Previously, with the power of sixteen divine phantoms, he possessed the combat power of a Quasi True God.
Now.
With the power of eighteen divine phantoms, Ye Chen’s combat prowess directly leaped to the True God level.
He took one step forward.
"Boom!"
Infinite Divine Power surged.
The roaring Archaic Beast was directly staggered by the impact of the storm.
"Swoosh!"
Ye Chen swung his sword and slashed.
The Archaic Beast’s body exploded into two halves.
A large amount of Sword Qi transformed into the Infinite Star Sword Array, shooting out and shattering the Archaic Beast’s body.
The shadow of the World-Suppressing Celestial Stele, containing devouring power, manifested.
It directly refined it!
Thus.
A quarter of an hour passed.
The Archaic Beast was completely obliterated by Ye Chen’s power!
Ye Chen dispersed the Divine Power.
He carefully sensed.
The Heart of the Sea King had already reached its limit.
This limit was not due to consumption, but because it was saturated with too much life essence...
And Ye Chen’s cultivation level.
He had also stepped into the ranks of a High-Level Great Emperor.
His nine Domain Worlds had all undergone a transformation.
From a Mid-Level Great Emperor to a High-Level Great Emperor, he consumed more energy than Luo Tian and Fatty did when advancing to the godly level.
The nine Domains were truly too unique; since time immemorial, apart from Luo Jiutian who created such a Secret Technique, only Ye Chen remained.
Moreover.
Ye Chen’s nine Domain Worlds definitely surpassed Luo Jiutian!
Because.
Luo Jiutian’s nine Domain Worlds were developed in the form of nine Lifebound Swords.
Ye Chen’s nine Domain Worlds were entirely developed with himself at the core.
As the saying goes, ’the new wave pushes the old wave, leaving the old wave to crash upon the shore,’ just like this!
After defeating the Archaic Beast.
Ye Chen looked towards the void area ahead.
There must be great secrets and opportunities inside.
It must be clarified!
"Brother Ye, you go in. I, Fatty, and your Uncle Master will guard outside. If you need help, we can quickly come in to support. If anyone tries to cause trouble, we can easily block them."
Although they were the first to discover this place.
They all realized that the things inside the void were not fated to be theirs.
If Ye Chen could do it, then so be it.
If Ye Chen couldn’t, neither could they.
Moreover.
Ye Chen helped them increase their strength by killing the Archaic Beast, now it’s their turn to repay him.
This point.
They had already tacitly understood for a long time.
The three brothers braved life and death together all the way through, so many things didn’t need discussion; they understood in their hearts!
The next moment.
Ye Chen’s figure flickered and he dashed into that void.
Instantly.
In the empty space before him, the scene of the creation of all things suddenly appeared.
Ye Chen slowly stepped forward, walking among it.
"Earth!"
He murmured softly to himself.
This was the hint heard by Uncle Master Liu Mubai, Fatty, and Luo Tian when they were swept into the Desolate Origin Forbidden Area.
Before his eyes.
Swamps, mountains, canyons, abysses, deserts, cliffs, all kinds of terrain were present, encompassing everything.
With each step Ye Chen took.
The surrounding environment changed unpredictably.
Under his feet, there was always an extremely firm and heavy sense of stability.
"What exactly is the ’earth’?"
Ye Chen frowned, thoughts swiftly spinning in his mind.
The next moment.
His figure retreated.
Returning to the edge of the void.
Then once again entered the void, continuing to observe the process of creation.
Thus.
He repeated the cycle.
In and out.
Faster and slower.
Sometimes deeper, sometimes shallower.
Changing positions and angles.
He tried to explore every part of the void as much as possible.
Luo Tian, Fatty, Liu Mubai, the three of them watched Ye Chen going back and forth tirelessly.
Liu Mubai: "Is it not working?"
Luo Tian: "Don’t interrupt him, he might have discovered some clues. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be doing this."
Fatty nodded, saying: "Not disturbing him is our final gentleness."
Liu Mubai, Luo Tian: ???
No one knew how long had passed.
Perhaps it was very long.
Or perhaps just a fleeting moment.
Completely immersed, Ye Chen’s eyes gradually lost their confusion, replaced by a gleam.
"So that’s it!"
A smile curved at the corners of his mouth.
The next moment.
He reached out his hand.
His hand passed through mountains and rivers, through cliffs and abysses, through birds and beasts, insects and fish, through all that lay between reality and illusion.
Then.
His hand.
Touched warmth and moisture.
With a grasp!
Instantly.
The entire scene around him completely dissipated.
In his hand, there was now a... piece of soil!
A very ordinary piece of soil.
However.
This very piece of soil was the cause of the anomaly here!
"Primordial Era!"
Ye Chen murmured softly.
Earlier, his continuous efforts and investigations had yielded nothing.
Then.
With a sudden inspiration, he activated a Cultivation Technique from the Primordial Era, unraveling everything and obtaining this piece of soil!
Soil that gives birth to all things!
Ye Chen couldn’t understand what kind of soil this was!
With a thought.
He intended to first store the piece of soil into the Storage Ring.
But the Storage Ring couldn’t hold it.
So, he tried to put the soil into the Sword Tomb.
The same situation occurred.
The Sword Tomb couldn’t hold it either!
Ye Chen was shocked.
The Storage Ring not being able to hold it was somewhat understandable, as the Storage Ring was a simpler spatial means.
But the Sword Tomb was different.
Until now, anything that couldn’t be stored in the Storage Ring, Ye Chen would place in the Sword Tomb.
Now, for the first time, he encountered something that even the Sword Tomb couldn’t hold!
"Can the acupoints hold it?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself.
The Celestial Stele Breathing Technique was activated.
The divine phenomenon of the acupoints appeared.
Yet...
The acupoints couldn’t hold this soil either!
Ye Chen frowned deeply.
Did he have to carry a piece of soil with him at all times?
During combat, the power fluctuations were too strong, it would be easy to lose it!
Ye Chen transmitted his voice into the Sword Tomb: "Miss Qing, Master Legs, take a look!"
Then, he projected the image of the piece of soil into the Sword Tomb.
In addition.
He transmitted some special characteristics of the soil to Master Legs and Miss Qing.
Master Legs and Luo Qingyi were both at a loss.
But the Enlightenment Tea Tree shook its barren branches excitedly...
"This..."
"This is..."
"This is the legendary..."
The Enlightenment Tea Tree was so excited it couldn’t even finish its words!
