Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 953 - 903: True Spirit Illustrated Handbook and the Mystery of the 8 Immortals (First Update)

Upon hearing the words of Sovereign He, Ye Chen's expression shifted drastically.

His journey to the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" required venturing into the "Extreme Spirit Sea" territory occupied by the "Extreme Spirit Clan."

According to Huyan Divine Master, the "Extreme Spirit Sea" lies in the Southern Region of the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom," incredibly distant from the kingdom's capital. It was clear Ye Chen could not simply remain within the capital's limits.

"No wonder Huyan Divine Master said that to fulfill his wish and travel to the 'Extreme Spirit Sea' would take at least one or two years. I didn't expect it to be so complicated just to get from the capital of 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom' to the 'Extreme Spirit Sea'!"

Sovereign He's words made Ye Chen increasingly wary of his expedition to the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom."

However.

Ye Chen would never give up on his search for General Yinsha simply because of Sovereign He's warning.

Although Ye Chen could discern from the expressions of the Eight Revered Masters that his journey to the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" would not be straightforward,

he was also not in any hurry to rush to the "Extreme Spirit Sea" in ten or fifteen days, nor to hastily traverse the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom."

"The True Spirit Divine Kingdom surely has countless martial artists roaming its four corners. As long as people are wandering, it means that, despite dangers, death is not an absolute certainty."

Moreover, Ye Chen was no ordinary individual.

Not only did he possess combat power far beyond his realm, but more importantly, he also had countless trump cards.

These trump cards had helped him pass through countless crises and would undoubtedly prove useful again.

Ye Chen believed he could successfully pass the final test of the "Three Mysterious Gates of Life and Death" set by Huyan Divine Master!

He was convinced he could resolve the crisis posed by the "Curse Power!"

Previously, Ye Chen had smoothly overcome the first two gates of the "Three Mysterious Gates of Life and Death." Whether it was the first gate, the "Curser" selection test in the three ice coffins guarded by General Long Xiao,

or the second gate, battling the combat doll left by General Yinsha within the Dead Star's primary tomb—Ye Chen had passed them both without fail.

Ye Chen was determined not to stumble at the final gate of fulfilling Huyan Divine Master's wish in the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom!"

"No matter what, I will go to the 'Extreme Spirit Sea' and find General Yinsha."

"No matter how challenging it may be!"

"No matter how many regions of the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom' I must cross!"

"I will succeed!"

Ye Chen resolved firmly in his heart.

From his initial shock to his resolute determination, Ye Chen's transformation was fully seen by the Eight Revered Masters.

The Eight Revered Masters knew Ye Chen was unlikely to give up his journey to the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" and would undoubtedly continue to explore its depths.

"It seems our young friend Ye Chen is still intent on venturing into the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom,'" Sovereign Lu remarked.

Ye Chen nodded. "Esteemed seniors, I must make this journey to the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom.' As for the reason, please forgive me for not being able to disclose it."

Huyan Divine Master had expressly instructed Ye Chen not to reveal the matter to others to avoid drawing unnecessary attention from other masters and escalating conflicts.

Thus, Ye Chen refrained from further explanation.

The Eight Revered Masters nodded, expressing their understanding.

Sovereign Li, leaning on his iron cane, spoke: "Our meeting with young friend Ye Chen is, in itself, a stroke of destiny."

"Since young friend insists on visiting the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom,' while we cannot aid you in other matters, we can at least provide you with a map of the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom.'"

"Indeed," the other masters chimed in. "Li's suggestion is excellent. All of us have traveled within the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom' for decades. Although we haven't entered certain forbidden areas or major clans, we've essentially explored its vast expanse."

"We can mark some details on a map for young friend Ye Chen."

Sovereign He smiled and said, "Then let Brother Li take the lead in drafting the map, and the rest of us will contribute annotations."

"Agreed!"

"Agreed!"

Sovereign Lu, Sovereign Cao, Sovereign Lan, and others nodded in agreement, smiling.

Sovereign Li, leaning on his iron cane, let out a soft chuckle. With a wave of his hand, a jade token appeared in mid-air. As he tapped it lightly with his cane, countless threads of divine sense surged into the jade token, beginning to outline the various territories of the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" from his memory.

The "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" was an unimaginably vast realm.

Even though Sovereign Li was a Nine-Star Sovereign with incredibly formidable divine sense, merely drafting the initial map took over an hour.

Subsequently, the other seven masters each took turns adding their annotations, highlighting matters they felt Ye Chen should be cautious of.

Watching the Eight Revered Masters labor on his behalf, Ye Chen was deeply moved.

Despite being strangers, their willingness to assist him left a profound impression of gratitude in his heart.

"The Eight Revered Masters..."

"Their appearance resembles the depictions of the 'Eight Immortals' from the mythologies of Earth, before I was transported by the Stars Tower to the Barbaric Wilderness Continent."

"Even their surnames are inexplicably similar."

"Could it be that they are connected to those legends? Or perhaps they once traveled to Earth's time-space and left behind the origins of those myths?"

Since his first encounter with the Eight Revered Masters, Ye Chen had always harbored this question.

Seeing their tireless efforts at that moment reignited his thoughts about the "Eight Immortals" legends.

"If the Eight Revered Masters had truly visited Earth... perhaps one day I could return to my homeland!"

Ye Chen's heart was stirred with emotion.

Yet he sensed that the truth might be far more complex.

Despite his immense strength and ability to traverse countless divine nations and stellar continents, Ye Chen was still unable to comprehend the colossal power required to transport his divine soul to an entirely new world.

Even after obtaining the star chart gifted by Huyan Divine Master, Ye Chen had scoured its intricate patterns, yet Earth remained absent from its stellar markings.

Ye Chen speculated that the secrets surrounding him, along with those of the Stars Tower and Earth, might only be revealed when he met Zi Ji Star Lord.

"Once the Eight Revered Masters finish drafting the map of the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom,' I should seize the opportunity to ask them more questions..."

Ye Chen was deep in thought.

Nearly two hours later, the last of the Eight Revered Masters, Sovereign Lan, finally completed the annotations.

The "True Spirit Divine Kingdom Map" jade token was officially handed to Ye Chen.

"Young friend Ye Chen, keep this map safely. Although it doesn't encompass everything about the 'True Spirit Divine Kingdom,' it's a decent overview with general markings. It should prove useful once you set foot there."

The Eight Revered Masters spoke to Ye Chen with warm smiles.

Accepting the jade token, Ye Chen rose from his seat beside the round table and gave a deep bow to the Eight Revered Masters. "Esteemed seniors, your assistance has been a tremendous boon to me. I will forever be grateful!"

After the Eight Revered Masters waved off his thanks with smiles, Ye Chen infused his divine sense into the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom Map" jade token.

The moment he connected with it, Ye Chen was left astonished.

The "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" was unimaginably vast.

Its stellar continents were innumerable, akin to celestial bodies scattered across the heavens.

Even the simplest markings in the map encapsulated an expansive region within the jade token's spatial void.

Ye Chen followed the map's journey, tracing the path from the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom" capital to the "Extreme Spirit Sea."

Along the way, Ye Chen noted three of the kingdom's Eight Deadly Forbidden Lands, two of its Nine Holy Mountains...

He also saw countless clans of True Spirit Sacred Beasts dwelling throughout the kingdom...

Most significantly, Ye Chen observed various cautions and reminders left by the Eight Revered Masters...

It was a long time before Ye Chen finally put away the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom Map" jade token.

With this map in hand, he could foresee and evade calamities in advance, saving himself a great deal of trouble.

When Ye Chen finished storing the jade token, the Eight Revered Masters invited him to share another round of drinks.

After a few more cups of wine, Ye Chen finally couldn't help but ask the Eight Revered Masters a question: "Esteemed seniors, in your travels across the universe, have you ever visited a place called 'Earth'?"

"It's a planet inhabited by ordinary mortals rather than martial artists."

"Earth?"

"A planet of mortals?"

Upon hearing Ye Chen's question, the Eight Revered Masters appeared momentarily puzzled.

Soon after, they collectively shook their heads. "In our travels across this universe, we've primarily visited planets of cultivation. We've yet to encounter a mortal planet or a place named 'Earth.'"

Their response brought a sigh of disappointment to Ye Chen's heart.

As expected.

The Eight Revered Masters, like the absence of Earth from Huyan Divine Master's star chart, had no knowledge of the planet's existence.

"Perhaps the Eight Revered Masters inadvertently left behind some tales or texts in certain places, which, through the flow of time, were carried to Earth, giving rise to mythologies."

"Or, perhaps Earth has an alternate aspect, far surpassing its mere thousands of years of recorded history. As with the 'Stars Tower' left behind by Zi Ji Star Lord under the Antarctic Glacier, such mysteries may exist unbeknownst even to the Eight Revered Masters—who might have unknowingly passed by Earth without realizing it was a planet of mortals."

Ye Chen pondered deeply.

"Ultimately, it seems only when I meet Zi Ji Star Lord will I uncover the full truth."

Though his questions remained unresolved, Ye Chen decided to put these thoughts aside.

All would become clear once he grew stronger!

The universe's boundlessness.

The world's mysteries.

Still awaited Ye Chen's continuous exploration!

Ye Chen and the Eight Revered Masters spent nearly two hours together, conversing and inscribing the "True Spirit Divine Kingdom Map." During this time,

Martial artists from Frost God City had remained outside, observing the actions of Ye Chen and the Eight Revered Masters from a distance.

For figures of this caliber, such a gathering was entirely unprecedented in Frost God City.

Their curiosity was inevitable!

Just as Ye Chen and the Eight Revered Masters' banquet neared its conclusion, an extraordinary icy light beam suddenly erupted from the direction of the Lin Mansion.

Spotting the pillar-shaped crystalline light soaring skywards, Ye Chen's gaze sharpened.

The Eight Revered Masters exchanged knowing smiles. "It seems that young girl has successfully fused the Life Core of her 'Ice Spirit Mysterious Body.'"

Sovereign He stood up first, her expression joyous. "Let's go take a look at that girl. The 'Ice Spirit Mysterious Body' is exceedingly rare, and I might just consider accepting her as a disciple."
