Chapter 1768: Chapter 1787: Reunion of Old Friends

However, Ye Xuan is also facing a serious problem.

The Twelve Heavenly Gates he cultivates is one of the three strongest paths in the ancient eras. If Ye Xuan was in those three strongest eras, cultivation resources would naturally not be a problem.

But after those eras passed, the Three Thousand Great Dao dissipated, nature’s spiritual energy became scarce, and even the Laws weakened. This is due to the suppressive force of the Chaotic Universe, where even the strongest cultivators achieve only the Supreme level; no one can surpass this boundary.

Therefore, Ye Xuan finds himself in a rather awkward situation; he is on the right path.

However, the current suppression of the Chaotic Universe makes his cultivation extremely slow, and it has become exceptionally difficult to acquire the vast cultivation resources he needs to advance.

But now, the opportunity has emerged!

Ancient Forbidden Land!

Ye Xuan has a very strong premonition from his intuition: if he can seize this chance, his cultivation will definitely break through the current limitations.

Otherwise, within the Chaotic Universe, even if he waits for the Twelfth Epoch, waits for the Chaotic Universe to collapse in reincarnation, he’s afraid he won’t be able to unify the Twelve Heavenly Gates, let alone break through his current realm.

"Interesting, interesting, trying to use me. Let’s see who will win in the end." Ye Xuan smiled coldly, as the great waves of the Star Sea propelled him, disappearing into the starry sky, heading straight back to the Chaos Great World.

There are thirty million years until the ancient starry path opens, and Ye Xuan needs to prepare fully within these thirty million years.

After all, in the journey to the Ancient Forbidden Land, he faces not just numerous taboos but also the many dangers contained within the Ancient Forbidden Land.

Though this journey is exceedingly dangerous, fortune is sought amidst peril; this risk must be taken, and Ye Xuan, naturally, must prepare thoroughly.

...

Extreme Demon Temple!

Ye Xuanmo sat cross-legged in the void, breathing slowly, ever since Ye Xuan disappeared in pursuit of taboo figures, a thousand years have passed.

After the battle ten thousand years ago, Ye Xuan’s name resounded once more throughout the Chaos Great World, significantly altering its overall structure.

Just by Ye Xuan completely decimating a Supreme power, the Five Domains of Chaos were in an uproar, and when the Spirits learned that Ye Xuanmo and others were Ye Xuan’s disciples, Ye Xuan gained even more attention.

Meanwhile, former members of the Heavenly Burial Palace emerged one after another, all coming to the Extreme Demon Temple, and even the reclusive Huang Fatty and Gu Beichen reappeared.

Buzz!

Ripples in the void, waves of ripples, a figure quietly appeared in the Extreme Demon Heavenly Palace, instantly shocking Ye Xuanmo to open his eyes, but upon seeing the visitor, a look of great joy appeared on his face.

"Disciple respectfully welcomes Master’s return." Ye Xuanmo hurriedly bowed down.

...

Clang—Clang—Clang!

A full eighty-one chimes echoed through the Extreme Demon Temple, and a message was disseminated from the Extreme Demon Temple to the outside world.

The Emperor of Heaven Burying, Ye Xuan, has returned.

All of a sudden, clouds moved from all directions, countless people connected to Ye Xuan were rushing towards the Extreme Demon Temple, causing unrest again throughout the Chaos Great World.

...

Extreme Demon Heavenly Palace.

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged at the head position, with three disciples bowing below, the Lord of Extreme Emotion sat shoulder to shoulder with Ye Xuan, and the entire Extreme Demon Heavenly Palace was crowded with nearly thousands.

These people were all former followers of the Heavenly Burial Palace who, upon hearing of Ye Xuan’s return, flocked to the Extreme Demon Temple, each looking at Ye Xuan with a devout and excited expression.

"Sir!"

Suddenly, two figures rushed into the Heavenly Palace, accompanied by a voice of excitement. It was none other than Huang Fatty and Gu Beichen, and they were followed by two familiar figures to Ye Xuan.

These two figures were Luo Hou and Primordial Spirit.

Upon seeing old friends, Ye Xuan beamed with a smile and personally rose to greet them, which made the three disciples and former followers of the Heavenly Burial Palace change their expressions slightly.

This showed Ye Xuan’s warm attitude toward Huang Fatty and the others, distinguished from his treatment of others.

"Disciple greets Master."

Ye Xuan strode toward Primordial Spirit, bowing respectfully, surprising Primordial Spirit into a state of awkwardness and bewilderment. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Primordial Spirit never expected that, given Ye Xuan’s current level of cultivation and status, he would still offer such courtesy.

In reality, Primordial Spirit was unaware that, in Ye Xuan’s heart, without Primordial Spirit, there would be no him today. Ye Xuan was not someone to forget favors and betray loyalty.

Primordial Spirit, as his guide, earned this wholehearted gesture from Ye Xuan, which was truly sincere and unpretentious.

"Grand-disciple Ye Xuanmo pays respect to Grandmaster."

Ye Xuanmo is highly astute; he promptly lowered his posture to bow to Primordial Spirit, prompting Ye Fengtian and Wan Hongling to grasp the situation instantly and also pay respects.

Since even Ye Xuan paid respect, as disciples, they absolutely could not neglect their manners.

"Qingmei pays respect to you."

The Lord of Extreme Emotion, Ye Qingmei, was nominally Ye Xuan’s wife, so she naturally did not overlook etiquette, similarly paying respect to Primordial Spirit.

"Ah?"

Primordial Spirit looked somewhat uncomfortable, his face flushed, his body quivering with excitement as he quickly said, "Esteemed Supremes, do not trouble me, such grand ceremony I cannot receive."

Although Primordial Spirit spoke with great humility, his eyes glimmered with excitement, for he knew that these Supremes offered their respects due to Ye Xuan.

Primordial Spirit felt proud internally, despite his modest cultivation and skills, elevating an unrivaled figure like Ye Xuan was his proudest achievement.

"They owe you grand ceremony, Master, even though they are Supreme, they are your juniors." Ye Xuan smiled and said.

"Wonderful, wonderful, I have indeed received a good disciple."

At this moment, Primordial Spirit shed tears of joy, overwhelmed with pride. Hadn’t he waited for this day?

While the world may not know his name, Primordial Spirit, his disciple is an unparalleled figure throughout eternity, which is enough to make him proud and content.

At this point, Luo Hou looked on with envious eyes. Had he taken Ye Xuan as a disciple back then, perhaps he would enjoy such supreme treatment today.

"Daoist Luo Hou, it has been a long time since we last met, you have ascended to half-step Supreme Powers." Ye Xuan nodded and smiled at Luo Hou.

"Alas."

Luo Hou replied with a bitter smile, "Half-step Supreme Powers count as nothing, how could I compare to you?"

Luo Hou expressed with melancholy; back in the days when they opposed each other, yet as endless years have passed, Ye Xuan has long surpassed him, which made him feel despondent.

Indeed, an epoch has passed, a total of seven hundred million years.

Whether it be Primordial Spirit, Luo Hou, Huang Fatty, or Gu Beichen, they have all become half-step Supreme.

After all, only these four old friends remain, and being able to see them again gives Ye Xuan great contentment.

Old friends reunited, laughter and chatter.

Everyone had endless topics to talk about, filling the Extreme Demon Heavenly Palace with excitement; Ye Xuanmo prepared a grand feast, with toasting and exchanges throughout.

"Master!"

Suddenly, a figure broke into the Extreme Demon Heavenly Palace, and his arrival instantly quieted the entire palace.

"Jun Wushuang!"

Ye Xuan set down his wine cup, a smile spreading across his lips, realizing what he felt missing were Jun Wushuang and Li Taichu, his servants.
