“He didn’t lie. The Jian family members who have used the aura viewing art on him before all went blind.”
At this time, a voice sounded out from the side-hall.
Following that, a group of people slowly walked out. They were precisely the Stellar Hall’s eight elders.
“Elder Hongxiao!” Song Yu’s face changed, immensely shocked in his heart.
It was still his first time hearing that when the Jian Family’s people used the aura viewing art, they would actually go blind.
But these words coming out of Jian Hongxiao’s words naturally would not be wrong.
That late-stage imperial Guo Jingyang suddenly said with a look of surprise, “Blinded? Could … Could he be Ye Yuan, Master Ye?”
Song Yu was taken aback and said, “M-Master Ye?”
He had naturally heard of Master Ye Yuan’s name before. The Jian family members in this city simply revered him like a god.
Guo Jingyang nodded and said, “Brother Song came late and might not have heard before. Back then, Master Ye and Master Hongxiao just entered Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital. Protector Jian Hao’s son, Jian Yun, used the aura viewing art on Master Ye. In the end, his eyes went blind on the spot. Later, it was even treated by Master Ye.”
When the group of children of destiny heard that, they were all extremely surprised.
They had all heard of Master Ye’s name and even thought that he was an old fogey. Who would have thought that he was actually this young?
No one connected this ‘snotty brat’ in front of them with that Master Ye Yuan whose name shook Extreme Luck.
Song Yu’s face was full of astoundment.
He kept calling snotty brat earlier. Who would have expected that Ye Yuan was actually such a major figure?
This face of yours was also too deceiving!
Hang on, what did … he say earlier?
Emperor surmounting aura?
Song Yu was speechless. Could it be that this Ye Yuan really had the emperor surmounting aura?
Going blind with a look, how powerful a destiny was that!
Why did Ye Yuan himself say that he was not sure?
If the Jian Family suspected that he was of the emperor surmounting aura, couldn’t City Lord personally use the aura viewing art on him?
With City Lord’s strength, he could see through Ye Yuan’s actual situation, right?
Everyone knew that City Lord understood the mysteries of good fortune in terms of aura viewing art.
How could Song Yu know that Jian Sutao wanted to look, but he did not dare to look!
Everyone’s gazes shot toward Song Yu one after another, making his face incomparably scalding hot.
Just as Song Yu was in a daze, the various elders had already taken their positions. An old figure appeared.
“We pay respects to City Lord!” Seeing this old man, everyone hurriedly bowed and gave a salute.
Even if it was Song Yu, he also did not dare to be the slightest bit neglectful in front of Jian Sutao.
Jian Sutao slowly opened his mouth and said, “You’re all the children of destiny that my Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital picked. Your future accomplishments are limitless. If you can obtain lucky chances from inside the Ancient God Battlefield, surpassing this empyrean in the future is also not impossible. Therefore, I wish you all the best! Alright, the hour has arrived, you all get ready, you’re about to set off.”
On Jian Sutao’s body, a dense fog leaped up.
It suddenly became incomparably dark inside the entire hall.
Dots of stars lit up, a passageway appeared in front of everyone.
Song Yu did not hesitate, taking the lead and entering. The rest followed closely behind.
Ye Yuan was naturally the last one. In the instant he stepped into the passageway, Jian Sutao suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Ye Yuan, don’t forget the thing you promised this empyrean.”
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said coolly, “Relax. The things that I, Ye Yuan, promised, I’ll live up to my word.”
Finished saying, Ye Yuan did not hesitate, also going into the passageway.
Chapter 1967. Entering the Ancient God Battlefield |
“Eh?”
Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets who was currently casting a spell suddenly detected a trace of abnormality.
His eyes seemed to be able to see through the void, directly landing on the Ye Yuan inside the passageway.
“This young man, interesting! Rather interesting!”
Saying interesting twice in a row, for Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets, that was absolutely encountering something that made him interested.
By the side, a middle-aged man said in surprise, “Lord Father, what thing made you so interested?”
Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets smiled and said, “With the Ancient God Battlefield opening this time, I discovered a very interesting little fellow.”
“Oh? Wonder what peculiarity this little fellow has, to actually be able to attract Father’s attention?”
He knew that the Ancient God Battlefield had opened for no idea how many times already, His father had never revealed such an expression before. It showed that this little fellow was really very interesting.
He understood that after his father reached his present realm, he had already reached the state of mind like an ancient well without ripples long ago. Extremely few things could make his mood have a change.
But today, his father’s mood clearly had a ripple. This made him extremely shocked.
Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets smiled and said, “It’s a little fellow who came from Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital. Father actually can’t see through his actual situation.”
The pupils of the middle-aged man shrunk, and he said in surprise, “Father calculates all of heaven’s secrets and knows about the matters under the heavens like the back of your hand. There’s actually someone that Father can’t see through in this world?”
Profound Secrets shook his head and could not help laughing as he said, “Calculating all of heaven’s secrets? That’s only what you all think. Father merely lived a little longer and understood a little more about this world than others.”
Profound Secrets stood with his hands behind his back, turned around to look towards that distant horizon, and said emotionally, “Everyone says that I, Profound Secrets, am omniscient and all-powerful. But they don’t know that the moment my Jian Family touches calculating rods, Heavenly Dao is laughing! The higher one stands, the more it’s akin to treading on thin ice, and the more one feels that Heavenly Dao is unfathomable.”
The middle-aged man was at a loss after listening. Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets’s words, he could not comprehend at all.
In his eyes, his father always had everything under control.
In this world, there was nothing that he, Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets, could not calculate.
Even those Dao Ancestors who were too lofty to reach were also courteous toward Father.
His father was absolutely this Heavenspan World’s outlier, an existence above worldly considerations.
The things that he said, he could not understand at all.
Why would Heavenly Dao laugh?
“What Father said … Yunxin doesn’t understand.”
“Huhu, perhaps one day, you’ll know. Go and inquire for me about the background of this little fellow,” Profound Secrets said with a laugh.
“Yes, Father.” Jian Yunxin received the order and left.
…
Inside the passageway, Ye Yuan’s brows suddenly furrowed.
“Senior, I seem to feel that someone was spying on me just now,” Ye Yuan said to Dustless.
Dustless was rather surprised as he said, “Spying on you? I didn’t detect it!”
Ye Yuan was rather stunned; even Dustless actually did not feel it?
“Maybe it’s my misconception,” Ye Yuan said.
Dustless frowned as he thought about it and said,
“Might not be! Talk about your feeling just now.”
Ye Yuan said, “It was like … Heavenly Dao’s overlooking; it was intangible.”
Dustless said, “This Ancient God Battlefield’s passageway was opened up by Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets with a great divine ability. Sending you all into the Ancient God Battlefield is also Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets’s work. Could it be that … it was him spying on you?”
When Ye Yuan heard that, his brows could not help furrowing.
Being noticed by such a powerhouse was not what he desired.
Although he looked forward to meeting Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets very much, he also knew that this kind of person was too ephemeral. That person was not what the current him could come into contact with.
Being noticed by Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets was not some good thing.
“Forget it. It’s a blessing if not a calamity; if it’s a calamity, it can’t be avoided.”
Just as Ye Yuan was hesitating, Ye Yuan only felt a blur before his eyes. A desolate aura hit him face-on.
In front of him, it was a boundless land with yellow sand all over the place, unable to see the end with a glance.
Suddenly, the winds and clouds changed.
Above the horizon, two powerhouses surged with mighty divine essence, fighting fiercely in close quarters, fighting until heaven rend asunder and the earth cracked.
Suddenly, an attack dispersed and headed straight toward their side.
The faces of Song Yu and the rest changed drastically as they cried out in surprise, “Goodness, quickly run!”
As he said, he turned around and ran!
At this time, the young powerhouses in this area were probably no less than several hundred people.
When everyone saw this horrifying energy undulation, each and every one of them was scared until their faces were ashen, turning tail and running like Song Yu.
But how could they escape?
That energy undulation arrived in an instant. However, there was no exploding sound like everyone imagined.
It evaporated into thin air just like that.
Lifting their heads and looking over again, those two powerhouses also disappeared into thin air. Their traces were no longer there.
“What the hell? Turns out that it was a false alarm!”
“Damn it, scared me to death! What’s going on here?”
“Don’t tell that those two powerhouses just now were both illusions?”
…
Those young powerhouses all cursed angrily to no end, clearly feeling like they were made fun of.
At this time, Liu Yi suddenly appeared beside Ye Yuan and marveled with admiration. He said, “Little Brother is indeed not an ordinary person. Facing such a heaven-shocking energy undulation and your countenance didn’t even change.”
That unexpected turn of events just now, only a small number of people stood in place and not moved.
Ye Yuan was one of them.
Ye Yuan gave the wretched-looking Liu Yi a glance and said with a faint smile, “Playing a pig to eat a tiger, looks like Brother Liu has mastered the skill to perfection!”
Liu Yi was surprised in his heart, but he had a wretched look on his face as he said, “What’s little brother talking about? This Liu doesn’t understand!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “You and I know in our hearts, that will do.”
Liu Yi getting snubbed, went over to the side to hide awkwardly.
But for Ye Yuan, he became alert instead.
Although Song Yu’s strength was strong, Ye Yuan did not take it to heart.
He was merely a young master who had not experienced tempering before. In a place like the Ancient God Battlefield, he would not even know what was going on after being schemed to death by people
But from the very start, Ye Yuan was very vigilant toward this Liu Yi.
He instinctively felt that Liu Yi was not simple.
An itinerant cultivator like him could actually rise rapidly all the way up, reaching imperial aura at this kind of age. This absolutely could not be summed up with a simple word like ‘destiny.’
Actually, since entering the Ancient God Battlefield, Ye Yuan had been observing Liu Yi.
Sure enough, when everyone turned pale with fright and was running away just now, Liu Yi pretended to look surprised and ran together with everyone.
The scared expression on his face was very fake. But at this sort of time, there naturally would not be anyone who would pay attention to him.
Even so, he still made such an expression. The depths of his cunningness could be seen.
Ye Yuan believed in destiny but did not believe in destiny entirely.
Human effort was a decisive factor. Defying the heavens and changing fate, this sort of thing was not just a legend.
For Liu Yi to be able to walk until today step by step, he definitely did not rely on just luck.
Right at this time, a deep voice rang in everyone’s ears. The person said, “That isn’t an illusion!”
“Who? Who’s talking?”
Everyone turned pale with fright because they could not find anyone at all.
That voice sounded out once more. The person said, “Don’t need to look for me. This emperor is in a closed-seclusion in the depths of the Ancient God Battlefield. You can’t find me. This emperor is the Ancient God Battlefield’s guardian. You all entering the Ancient God Battlefield, this emperor has a few things to warn you about.”
“This emperor! It’s … It’s a Heavenly Emperor powerhouse!”
When everyone heard that, their faces changed color due to feeling terrified.
Chapter 1968. Battle Spirits |
Ye Yuan’s heart went slightly cold. This should be the Jian Family’s Heavenly Emperor powerhouse.
The Jian Family was really too powerful, to actually use a Heavenly Emperor powerhouse to garrison the Ancient God Battlefield.
Heavenly Emperor Profound Secrets had lived for far too long. His descendants had also similarly lived for far too long.
With his good luck, the Jian Family’s Heavenly Emperor powerhouses were likely not a few.
This family clan was too terrifying.
Ye Yuan even had a feeling that the Jian Family might be the Heavenspan World’s number one major family clan.
As Ye Yuan was lost in thought, that voice continued to echo faintly, shocking the mind.
“The place that you all are standing at was hewed open by Ancestor Profound Secrets with a great divine ability. It’s the only safe place in this Ancient God Battlefield. Those two people’s great battle earlier was also not an illusion …”
This Heavenly Emperor’s words poured out easily and fluently, talking tirelessly about this Ancient God Battlefield’s perils.
It turned out that inside this Ancient God Battlefield, there had once been countless powerhouses that perished.
Before those powerhouses died, the unwillingness in their chest cut across the long river of history, and would occasionally trigger heaven and earth spiritual energy, playing out the image when they were alive, having a great battle with their opponents again.
Those two figures earlier were the battle scene of two Heavenly Emperor powerhouses when they were alive.
Although this battle was not as earth-shaking as when they were alive, it could similarly stir up powerful spiritual energy undulations.
Those energy undulations were all real!
Once swept by these spiritual energies, one would not even know how they died.
The moment Ye Yuan entered, he felt that there was a mysterious energy undulation all around, like a barrier.
Hence, when those two powerhouses were fighting, he did not move.
He believed that those people who did not move were the same as him. They felt this undulation.
Those people’s comprehensions of Heavenly Dao were extremely deep. All of them were going to be troublesome for him.
Ye Yuan already secretly
remembered these people’s faces. When he ran into them again, he would need to be careful.
Of course, there was also that Liu Yi.
Hearing this Heavenly Emperor powerhouse’s words, each and every one of them, their expressions were all rather ugly.
This ancient god battlefield was too dangerous!
“Now, you all can start to seek out lucky chances on your own. You can move collectively and can also work alone. Of course, this emperor advises you all to take action collectively. This way, the chances of seizing treasures will be a little higher. You all have three years’ time. After three years, this barrier will disappear, and you all will stay in this place for as long as ten thousand years. However, if you’re afraid, you can also keep staying inside this shield, all the way until the passageway closes.”
Finished saying, that voice disappeared. It was as if it had never appeared before.
These children of destiny began forming cliques.
Of course, these people came from different great imperial capitals. The majority formed alliances with the great imperial capitals as the unit of measurement.
Song Yu recovered to that boundless enthusiastic appearance and opened his mouth and said, “Everybody, are you all planning on moving alone, or are you going together with me? But I’ll say it first. If it’s together, you have to listen to my orders. If anyone is half-hearted when the time comes, I’ll kill him without the slightest mercy!”
Song Yu’s gaze swept over with a grave look.
He naturally had the qualifications to say so. Having a Third Firmament True God’s strength, even in Extreme Luck Great Imperial Capital, it was also considered head and shoulders above others.
“Heh, who the hell do you think you are? I’m also a child of destiny, why should I follow you? Farewell!”
“No need, I plan to work alone!”
…
Right at this time, a series of arguing sounds came over from not far away.
Clearly, these people did not want to move with the majority of the force but wanted to work alone.
