Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 557 - 512: Death Bloodlight and the Mysterious Ice Cave_2
While prepared for the threats posed by the Vermilion Bird Clan and the Flying Spirit Clan, Ye Chen was most perturbed not by the dangers these two Nine Tribulations True Gods presented, but by his two great doubts.
The first grave doubt stemmed from Ye Chen thoroughly scanning every Heavenly Saint True God in the grand hall with his Divine Sense, only to find that Heavenly Saint Di Kong was nowhere to be seen!
According to the Ancient Emperor of the Yan Clan, all the Heavenly Saint True Gods from the thirty-three continents and the Minor Spirit Realm were inescapable from this grand purge, certain to be drawn into the Undersea Divine Palace.
However, at this moment, Heavenly Saint Di Kong was absent, much to Ye Chen’s astonishment.
Ye Chen immediately recalled the Mysterious Ice Cave he had discovered in the Ice Palace Snowfield of the Northern Region, the very location where Heavenly Saint Di Kong had vanished.
That Mysterious Ice Cave gave Ye Chen a feeling of profound connection, even to the fortunate encounter he had had with the Tower of the Stars, an enigma beyond his and Bing Yi’s comprehension.
Ye Chen had always felt that great secrets lay hidden within the Mysterious Ice Cave, and now that Heavenly Saint Di Kong was missing, he even suspected that it was due to this cave that Di Kong had managed to resist the grand purge of the Divine Sea of Beiming.
It seemed likely that the Mysterious Ice Cave held a presence even more enigmatic than the Divine Sea of Beiming, possessing a powerful mystery force that could transcend the suction power of the Divine Sea.
Ye Chen had fallen into such a strikingly similar Mysterious Ice Cave, where he had obtained the Tower of the Stars and the Primordial Star Scripture, leading him to the Barbaric Wilderness Continent. The Primordial Star Scripture was, without a doubt, a Supreme Divine Art that surpassed the Divine Venerable level.
Naturally, Ye Chen would conjecture the tremendous power of such a cave.
Ye Chen’s second major quandary was that he had not seen any of the abducted Divine Phoenix Clan members, who were taken by the Black Crow God King, nor the five senior Nine Tribulations True Gods of the clan who had gone missing, in the great hall either.
According to the Ancient Emperor of the Yan Clan, even if they had left the Celestial Spirit Star, every Heavenly Saint True God who had transformed within the Minor Spirit Realm and the thirty-three continents would be inevitably drawn back by the boundless power of the Divine Sea of Beiming.
At the time, Ye Chen thought that those Heavenly Saint True Gods of the Divine Phoenix Clan, taken by the Black Crow God King, along with the five senior Nine Tribulations True Gods, would appear in the Undersea Divine Palace given this rule.
Yet, Ye Chen had an inkling they would not return so easily.
And at this moment, he truly did not find them! Continue your adventure with novelbuddy
Only Heavenly Saint True Gods would be taken for the grand purge.
Had the five senior Nine Tribulations True Gods advanced into the Divine King Realm, and was that why they hadn’t been taken?
If they had truly broken through to the Divine King Realm, why hadn’t they returned to the Minor Spirit Realm, to the Divine Phoenix Clan?
Or had they perished?!
Ye Chen had no clue whatsoever.

As for the members of the Divine Phoenix Clan taken by the Black Crow God King, their chances of breaking through to the Divine King Realm were nearly nonexistent.
This only intensified Ye Chen’s suspicion that perhaps there was a force exceeding that of the Divine Sea of Beiming, which had prevented the Heavenly Saint True Gods of the Divine Phoenix Clan from being taken back.
Could it be the power of the same Mysterious Ice Cave that had made Heavenly Saint Di Kong disappear?
Ye Chen shared his speculations with Jiang Yao through a sound transmission, and both were utterly perplexed.
Although the members of the Divine Phoenix Clan were not teleported back, sparing them from the threat of the Great Purge, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao became increasingly worried about them.
What Ye Chen and Jiang Yao didn’t know was that their speculation about the members of the Divine Phoenix Clan who were taken away by the Black Crow God King and not brought back was actually very close to the truth.
When the Great Purge catastrophe descended, the boundless power of the Beiming Divine Sea even swept out of the boundaries of the Celestial Spirit Star, rolling towards a vastly distant Star Continent.
However, when this force came into contact with a Mysterious Ice Cave within this Star Continent, it was directly blocked.
At this moment, looking deeper into the Mysterious Ice Cave, one could see the Black Crow God King, who had taken away the members of the Divine Phoenix Clan, laughing maniacally at the three hundred and sixty-five Divine Beads that had reached the level of Heaven-reaching Divine Artifacts, and there were even three that had achieved the level of Mysterious Heavenly Divine Artifacts: "I’ve struck it rich, I’ve struck it rich, I never expected that by accidentally entering this Star Continent, I would encounter such an astonishing stroke of fortune!"
If Ye Chen were aware of the situation the Black Crow God King had stumbled upon, he would have been shocked.
That Mysterious Ice Cave could actually block the limitless power of the Beiming Divine Sea.
In that Mysterious Ice Cave were numerous treasures; although they were not as marvelous as his own Primordial Star Scripture and Stars Tower, Ye Chen would definitely have wondered why there were treasures in this strange ice cave, and why each treasure was unique?!
Could it be that there was some connection inside?!
Of course, at this moment Ye Chen had no knowledge of everything occurring in the realm where the Black Crow God King was, and he kept his vague guesses about the Mysterious Ice Cave to himself.
Because, after everyone was teleported to the Undersea Divine Palace within the Beiming Divine Sea, as everyone was either sizing up others or preparing their next move, numerous Jade Slips suddenly fell down into the first floor of the palace.
These Jade Slips landed in the hands of every martial artist in the grand hall of the first floor.
The Jade Slips clearly stated the rules for the Great Purge calamity of the Undersea Divine Palace in the Beiming Divine Sea.
The Ancient Emperor of the Yan Clan had previously mentioned the task of finding the "Eye of Creation" and the "Eye of the Sea God" to escape the calamity. There was a time limit of one year to search for treasures across the thirty-three floors of the Undersea Divine Palace, and the rule that killing martial artists of lower realms would stain one with "Death Bloodlight" was clearly included.
The Jade Slips also explained that the deeper one went into the thirty-three floors of the Undersea Divine Palace, the more dangerous it became, the threats of death increased, and correspondingly, the probability of the "Eye of Creation" and the "Eye of the Divine Sea" appearing also increased.
If one were to die from these threats, it would mean true death.
If one does not dare to venture further down and hasn’t found the "Eye of Creation," they could hide in a safe place and wait for the one-year period of the Great Purge calamity to end.
At that time, if someone finds the "Eye of the Divine Sea," those who have hidden away may survive, but if no one finds the "Eye of the Divine Sea," then those in hiding will still face death.
Moreover, hiding won’t guarantee absolute safety; there will be numerous rogue demons of the Undersea Divine Palace targeting martial artists hidden throughout the various realms.
One must choose whether to take control of their own fate, risking death to search for the "Eye of Creation" and the "Eye of the Divine Sea," or leave their fate in others’ hands and hide away waiting for the final outcome — the choice is entirely up to the individual!
When the Jade Slip containing the rules of the Great Purge calamity of the Undersea Divine Palace fell into each martial artist’s hands, an endless blood-red light emerged from the first floor of the palace.
From within the blood-red light, all martial artists, even those standing together, those who flew into the same Treasure Space together, and even those like Ye Chen and Jiang Yao who were holding hands, were completely scattered and teleported to the second floor of the Undersea Divine Palace in the Beiming Divine Sea.
The real threat of death and the real search for the "Eye of Creation" and the "Eye of the Divine Sea" had begun!
