Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 897 - 847: Breakthrough and Astonishment

Both of them naturally wished to kill more assassins, partly to avenge the fallen challengers and partly to prevent the surviving Divine Kings of the five great Divine Kingdoms from facing further life-threatening dangers.

Amid their sentiments, Hua Xuelian said to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, even Boss Yao had it rough; he was ultimately killed directly by those three Purple Light Assassins. Luckily, we cleared out the Valley of the Wicked in the end and retrieved all their treasures. Otherwise, it would've been a pity to lose Boss Yao's treasures."

During the recent battle,

Boss Yao had been hiding on the sidelines, too scared to fight or flee.

Initially, he hoped Ye Chen would spare him, but in the end, while Ye Chen was fighting the three Purple Light Assassins, those assassins—who were on par with Boss Yao in terms of level—suddenly attacked him, resulting in his death.

The reason those three were so determined to kill Boss Yao was their belief that he had brought Ye Chen and his group to the Valley of the Wicked, causing its downfall.

Although Ye Chen could have blocked them, he chose not to intervene in the end.

Boss Yao wasn't a good person anyway.

To perish at the hands of other assassins and villains was his own fault.

Unwilling to dwell on matters of the Valley of the Wicked, Ye Chen turned to Hua Xuelian and the Divine Kings of Qianjue Divine Kingdom and said, "Fellow cultivator Hua, everyone, do you have any plans now?"

"I plan to enter secluded cultivation directly and wait until the second-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain opens before reemerging."

Ye Chen had obtained the Fate Divine Pill, and with over twenty days left in the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain, he planned to spend that time breaking through to the Middle God King Realm!

Hearing that Ye Chen was going to cultivate, Hua Xuelian and others, who initially wanted to keep exploring with him, all showed regretful expressions.

Soon, they cupped their hands toward Ye Chen and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Ye Chen is going to cultivate, we won't disturb you."

"Our missions are all completed, so it's time we enter secluded cultivation ourselves, to prepare for the unforeseen challenges of the second-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain!"

After some brief conversation, Ye Chen bid farewell to the Qianjue Divine Kingdom members and flew away.

The thirty-six members of Qianjue Divine Kingdom, including Hua Xuelian, also parted ways, scattering in small groups toward different locations.

Half a day later.

In a secluded mountain range within the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain.

Ye Chen's figure appeared from the distant Void Heaven, instantly landing in the skies above the mountain range.

Scanning with his Divine Eye, Ye Chen quickly selected a spot within the mountains. With a mighty grab, "boom," a pillar-like mountain segment was ripped out by Ye Chen's hand.

Rumble!

Tossing the massive pillar-like mountain segment to the ground, it created a massive, cylindrical pit in the mountain range.

Ye Chen then sealed the entire mountain from the outside and stepped into the massive pit.

Soon after, with a sweep of his sword light, Ye Chen carved out a cultivation cave abode within the mountain in moments.

Taking out a meditation cushion he had obtained from the Abandoned Land, Ye Chen seated himself atop it.

With a flick of his sleeve, he brought forth a small bottle containing the Fate Divine Pill, which appeared on the ground.

Simultaneously, he pointed with his finger, summoning a few drops of Divine Milk he had retrieved from the Demon Tomb to hover in the void.

Gazing at the Fate Divine Pill and the Divine Milk, Ye Chen took a deep breath.

"It's time to break through to the Middle God King Realm!"

Ye Chen harbored an insatiable desire for cultivation breakthroughs.

In the five months he had spent in the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain, Ye Chen had faced numerous dangers, especially in the World of the Death Fruit, where he had nearly been trapped to death!

Though he had escaped danger and slain many enemies, acquiring a plethora of treasures, his mind and spirit remained unyielding.

After all, if his strength hadn't been sufficient, he wouldn't have shattered the World of the Death Fruit, and his death would have been certain.

If he hadn't been far stronger than Boss Yao and the assassins of the Valley of the Wicked, he would have still been the one dead.

Ye Chen had too many goals to achieve.

He certainly didn't want to die.

This time, his strength allowed him to escape peril. Naturally, Ye Chen wished to possess enough strength to evade danger in the future as well.

Thus, increasing his power was of utmost importance!

Ye Chen was already at the peak of the Lower God King Realm, unlike others who obtained a Fate Divine Pill and needed time to refine it to reach the peak before breaking through,

Ye Chen could directly attempt to break through to the Middle God King Realm!

In the mountain cave,

after a few deep breaths and completing all his preparations, Ye Chen calmed his mind and officially entered the state of breakthrough.

Time passed day by day.

The mountain range where Ye Chen was cultivating remained undisturbed by his sealing technique.

The mountains stayed utterly tranquil.

Only occasionally would the cold voice of the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain resound, announcing the names of challengers who had completed their missions.

As the time reached five months and twenty-four days since the 530,000 challengers entered the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain, leaving only six days until the half-year mission deadline,

that day, the previously silent mountain range erupted with endless thunderous sounds!

Before this, vast tribulation clouds had gathered above the mountains.

As the mountain range roared, the tribulation clouds above began to collapse at great speed.

This change startled nearby challengers and assassins from the Domain of Sin, forcing them to notice the anomaly in the remote mountain range.

"Could it be someone undergoing a Divine Tribulation, attempting a breakthrough?!"

"To think someone would choose such a remote mountain range to undergo tribulation!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless figures flew toward the mountain range, eager to explore the situation.

Soon, they discovered a formidable prohibition emanating from the mountains, repelling any who attempted to enter far away.

Even challengers from the second region of the Heavenly God List and elite Blue Light Assassins couldn't breach the prohibition.

This astonished everyone present.

"No one should rashly intrude into these mountains. Whoever is cultivating within must be extremely powerful, or else their prohibition wouldn't be able to stop so many of us!"

"Judging by the clouds, this person is about to complete their breakthrough. Let's wait here and see who it is!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Unable to enter the mountains, the rest retreated to a distance, observing and closely monitoring any movements within.

At this time, the number and strength of challengers and assassins in the area were evenly matched, and for the moment, both sides paused their conflict, forming two opposing factions, their gazes fixed on the mountains.

After dozens of breaths, the entire mountain range exploded with endless gales and divine light.

The gales and divine light howled through the mountains for two whole days!

With only four days remaining before the opening of the second-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain,

the roaring gales and shining divine light, which had raged for so long, abruptly vanished as if swallowed by a massive serpent, retreating into the mountains in an instant.

Then, with a deafening "boom," the entire mountain range split in two along the retreating divine light.

A figure shot out from the rift, hovering in the void.

He floated there with eyes closed, but the aura emanating from him unmistakably belonged to a Middle God King!

"A Middle God King?!"

"Someone went from a Lower God King to a Middle God King? To trigger such commotion, and his prohibition was even impenetrable to us!"

On one side of the mountains, the gathered assassins and villains of the Domain of Sin were all filled with dread and disbelief.

"It's Ye Chen."

"That man is ranked fourth on the Heavenly God List—Ye Chen!"

"To think it was him cultivating here!"

On the other side of the mountains, the challengers from the five great Divine Kingdoms exclaimed in recognition.

These challengers, who had entered Heavenly God Mountain alongside Ye Chen, naturally recognized this formidable individual.

Amidst the shock of both parties, Ye Chen, who was seated in the sky, gradually opened his eyes.

His face bore a faint smile.

With the assistance of the Fate Divine Pill and the Divine Milk, his breakthrough had been incredibly smooth.

He had finally advanced from a peak Lower God King to the Middle God King Realm, officially becoming a Middle God King!

From now on, Ye Chen was truly a Middle God King!

With a subtle smile, Ye Chen also noticed the two groups outside the mountains staring at him in astonishment.

To the challengers from the five Divine Kingdoms, Ye Chen smiled and nodded slightly.

But toward the assassins and villains of the Domain of Sin, Ye Chen showed no mercy: "I've just completed my breakthrough and need to stabilize my realm, so I've no wish for bloodshed."

"Domain of Sin individuals, leave at once. Otherwise, I won't hesitate to ensure your corpses join those of the assassins of the Valley of the Wicked."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, these killers and villains were struck with a profound sense of alarm.

During this time, rumors of the complete annihilation of seventy to eighty thousand assassins at the Valley of the Wicked had spread throughout the first-layer world of Heavenly God Mountain.

Though none of the assassins knew the identity of the perpetrator behind such a massive slaughter,

now, upon hearing Ye Chen's words, this group of assassins and villains immediately realized the truth.

It was Ye Chen who caused the massacre!
