Chapter 1731: Chapter 1548: An Unbreakable Epiphany!

In this regard, Ye Chen felt more helpless than anyone else.

He had always felt that something was missing. Originally, he thought it was just a lack of Divine Power, but he had already consolidated eight Divine Power Dao Bodies, each possessing the same amount of Divine Power as his true self. Along with his true self, combined as one, it should have been enough to break through.

But it was still the same now, and even he himself didn’t quite understand what the problem was.

Why did it always feel like something was lacking? What exactly was missing?

He sat cross-legged in the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, motionless, as if petrified, no longer contending for other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, pondering this crucial issue.

No one disturbed him. Originally entering the Pill Ruins Ancient World were the Dan Chen, Qin Jiuyou, and even the Ancient Monarchs, but they all left one after another, after all, it was still the Pill Scripture gathering, and if there were any issues, they could ask in the future.

The Emperor’s daughter gave Ye Chen a deep look, then turned to leave.

However, the Ancient Monarch gave an order on the spot, if possible, they must establish good relations with the Combat Saint King, even inviting him to become a distinguished guest of the Pill Emperor Clan, becoming the First Minister, and should not rashly oppose him.

After leaving such an order that caused the entire Pill Emperor Clan to boil in astonishment, the Ancient Monarch departed directly.

The entire Pill Emperor Clan, including Dan Chen, didn’t understand why the Emperor Ancestor would give such an order, giving the Combat Saint King such a status.

Although the other was truly extraordinary, with tremendous potential, the status of First Minister of the Pill Emperor Clan should not have been given.

That kind of position was almost no less than that of this Peak Great Power Ancestor’s status.

However, no one dared to oppose it, even Dan Chen had to obey because the orders of the few Ancient Ancestors in the clan, even the Emperor’s daughter did not oppose.

Dan Yang’s expression changed, clenching his fists, he never thought that the Combat Saint King would be given such an important status, even he would not be able to intimidate him in the future.

More importantly, he might have to salute the Combat Saint King if they were to meet in the future, which was the most unsettling.

But this was the order of the Ancient Monarch and Emperor Ancestor, who dared to resist.

In this regard, Ye Chen knew nothing. He continued to sit cross-legged on the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, motionless. Even the Nine-headed Giant Snake didn’t dare to approach rashly and could only watch Ye Chen from afar as he meditated in retreat.

After a long time had passed, Ye Chen finally awoke, exhaled a long breath, and with a flicker of his figure, eight Divine Power Dao Bodies appeared, manifesting in eight directions.

Each Divine Power Dao Body radiated an immense power, enough to suppress everything and shatter time and space.

He looked at each Divine Power Dao Body, lost in thought, staring at them one by one until a long time had passed before he came back to his senses.

Then, before him appeared the Chaos Supreme Body, facing each other independently. In a moment, the Chaos Supreme Body transformed into chaos, with strands of Chaos Ancient Energy spreading out, then a world seemed to unfold, creating a world, yet soon falling into instability, leading to its destruction.

And so, this cycle continued, endlessly repeating.

Ye Chen watched it all intently, chaos evolving in his eyes, containing the mysteries and Secret Techniques of Heaven and Earth Creation.

"It is said that the creation of the Great Universe is built with the attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, yin, and yang, forming a stable great world..."

Ye Chen muttered to himself, seemingly thoughtful, looking at the eight Divine Power Dao Bodies, then at the endless cycle of birth and rebirth.

Suddenly, his eyes brightened, as if he understood something, experiencing a moment of clarity!

"I seem to understand why I haven’t truly broken into the Great Power Realm."

At this moment, Ye Chen fully comprehended, understanding the reason, and suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter resonating throughout Heaven and Earth, spreading across the Six Harmonies and Eight Desolates, attracting everyone’s attention, leaving them puzzled.

Ye Chen rose to his full height, his whole being filled with an inviolable swift Qi Mechanism, undergoing a thorough transformation.

He looked towards Heaven, his black hair flying, and said, "This time, I must be able to fully break and rebuild, charging into the Great Power Realm."

However, he did not act immediately. Instead, he was not in a hurry because in his previous breakthrough attempts, he consumed an enormous amount of Original Essence Qi, and simply consuming Medicinal Materials could not immediately replenish it. It would require some time.

Moreover, he needed to make a series of preparations, especially needing to refine a God King Pill, ensuring the success rate increases.

In this way, Ye Chen finally resolved the worries in his heart, ensuring that the next time, as long as no accidents occur, he could certainly advance to the Great Power Realm.

Then suddenly remembering the Thunderbolt Light Gate within, it was as if it had buried an entire epoch, with an endless, broken Ancient Battlefield, and countless grand, broken relics lying across it, blood staining the Heavenly Stars.

Emperors had fallen, Supreme Immortals had perished, too many had been buried, containing secrets unimaginable to the world.

However, the most unforgettable for him was that familiar figure who seemed to penetrate the depths of his soul—the Heavenly Gate Master!

He too appeared, standing within the Thunderbolt Light Gate, his posture exceptionally grand and unparalleled, dominating the River of Time.

One eye represented life, the other represented death, as if playing out all the events of the world. A massive heavenly gate stood towering, opened, its destination unknown, only it seemed evidently stained with red, bearing ancient battle scars that had endured endless epochs, indescribably ancient.

The Heavenly Gate Master stood there on the ancient battlefield, gazing into the distance, his expression grave, as if he had foreseen the most fearsome enemy, making even such a composed and unparalleled individual show such a grave expression.

But this was merely a glimpse revealed in the Heavenly Tribulation, not something truly enduring. Why witness the appearance of the Heavenly Gate Master? Why did he stand there? Moreover, this Heavenly Gate Master was not the same as before, more powerful, like an Emperor, a Supreme Immortal, a Supreme Sovereign, standing loftily, gazing at the eternal great enemy.

Ye Chen did not understand, and he felt the Heavenly Gate Master was more mysterious and unfathomable.

The Heavenly Gate Master of the past already exhibited unimaginable potential to the world, breaking through to the Great Power Realm, and not long after entering the Great Power Realm, he was very young yet far more powerful than the Heavenly Great Abilities.

And the occasional appearances of the Heavenly Gate’s shadow had once alarmed Detai Saint Emperor and displayed unpredictable power in the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass.

Everything indicated the extraordinary identity of the Heavenly Gate Master, and now a glimpse of the secret could be seen through the Thunderbolt Light Gate.

Moreover, not long ago, Ye Chen had asked some veteran Great Powers about "Death is not the true end, perhaps just a new beginning." The Heavenly Gate Master also mentioned before his fall that he might not have truly perished; he left this world and might meet him in the Origin Land someday.

"Sect Leader, who exactly are you?"

Ye Chen sighed softly, suppressing his inner doubts and contained everything witnessed in the Thunderbolt Light Gate.

These matters were currently beyond his knowledge; he was not strong enough, not qualified to know. Only by becoming stronger could he unravel all the secrets.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

One Divine Power Dao Body after another successively entered Ye Chen’s body, opening the Reincarnation Six-layer Coffin, with two Divine Power Dao Bodies in each burial coffin, except for the last two layers which were not.

Meanwhile, he summoned the Nine-headed Giant Snake.

The Nine-headed Giant Snake dared not refuse, coming beneath Ye Chen and appearing trembling.

Because it sensed that Ye Chen’s current Qi Mechanism was much more intense than before, the Great Power Level Qi Mechanism emanating from him was far stronger than even it, a giant demon that had stepped into the Great Power Realm for tens of thousands of years, leaving it extremely shocked.

What transformation did the master undergo, clearly not a true Ancient Great Power, yet why was he so intense to such a degree?

It didn’t know, and Ye Chen wouldn’t explain actively.

"Go!"

Ye Chen landed on the central snake head, directing the Nine-headed Giant Snake to dash in a direction.

By now, it had been a full seven or eight days since entering the Pill Ruins Ancient World. Basically, whether in the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea or other regions, any Medicine Spirit or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had been snatched by many alchemy prodigies.

Of course, a considerable part was also protected by the overlords of the Pill Ruins Ancient World, who had paid a blood price, with almost ten experts fallen.

Naturally, among those who entered from the outside, almost eight Heavenly Great Abilities also perished, resulting in massive casualties and severe losses.

Ultimately, it was the Pill Emperor Clan who could no longer watch and personally sent out the Peak Great Power Dan Chen to finally call for a ceasefire.

He brought with him the Emperor Clan’s Immortal Weapon, a Supreme Emperor’s Weapon, into the Pill Ruins Ancient World, unleashing the most formidable Emperor’s Might to cease the battle.

With the appearance of the Pill Emperor Tripod, crossing the Ancient Realm, its might quaking the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, both sides, even if enraged, had to stop because they knew the Pill Emperor Clan intentionally wanted to cease fire. Otherwise, if the battle continued, the Pill Emperor Clan would certainly intervene, using the Emperor’s Weapon to cease fire, leading to more experts from both sides dying, a losing battle.

This was the territory of the Pill Emperor Clan, and the clan had every right to deter with a Supreme Emperor’s Weapon.

Finally, everything moved towards a conclusion, and the battle over medicinal materials in the Pill Ruins Ancient World gradually came to an end, with each outstanding talent leaving the Pill Ruins Ancient World, returning to the Central Square.

Yet among the three hundred alchemy prodigies who initially entered, only two hundred thirty remained, with nearly seventy fallen in the treasure battle.

Although the casualties were severe, on reflection, more than a dozen Ancient Great Powers had perished, not to mention these alchemy prodigies, most of whom were not even Great Powers, caught in such a Great Power Level melee, severe casualties were within expectations.

As time went on, the alchemy prodigies emerged one by one, sitting cross-legged on the square for healing. With the protection of the Pill Emperor Clan, no one dared to attack them.

Yet what was perplexing was that among all the alchemy prodigies who ventured out, almost all had appeared, except for the most formidable individual who had never shown up—

Combat Saint King!
