It was just that Ao Jun dwelled in deep seclusion and seldom went out. Extremely few people knew about her existence.
But before long, a problem occurred.
Ji Zhengyang discovered that Ao Jun’s aging speed was too fast!
Just over 200 years, Ao Jun seemed to have aged 10 thousand years.
Under his repeated inquiry, Ao Jun told the entire story.
And at that time, Ao Jun was already expecting.
Ji Zhengyang used all of his abilities and was also unable to stop Ao Jun’s aging.
He loved Ao Jun deeply and decided not to have this child.
Because giving birth to the child, Ao Jun’s aging speed would be even faster!
Ao Jun chose to leave without bidding farewell in order to give birth to Ye Yuan.
She returned to the land of exile!
In this period of time, Ji Zhengyang got the news of the Eternity Frost. Hence, he could only enter deep into the lands of extreme north first to search for the Eternity Frost.
Later, he came to the land of exile bringing along the Eternity Frost, but discovered that this place already had the peach blossom grand array laid down.
He threw caution to the winds and barged into the peach blossom formation, but he was nearly killed by the peach blossom formation.
It was Ao Jun’s pleading that made the old ancestor save Ji Zhengyang.
Ji Zhengyang wanted to stay at the land of exile at that time, but the old ancestor refused no matter what!
In the end, Ji Zhengyang left behind the Eternity Frost and brought away Ye Yuan who was in swaddling clothes.
In this land of exile, the elapsing speed of Ao Jun’s life was greatly reduced. Coupled with Ji Zhengyang’s Eternity Frost, that was how she was able to live until now.
Except, Ao Jun was now a living dead person and was completely unable to leave this cold pool.
Even a trace of mood swing would hasten the elapsing of her life.
Hearing these past events, Ye Yuan also sighed endlessly.
This was truly fate making a mockery of men!
Only then, did Ye Yuan knew why Father would always enter deep into the Godsfall Mountain Range every few years.
He only thought that Father was searching for opportunities back then, but did not think that there was still this layer of reason present.
Even separated by a peach blossom forest, it could also slightly relieve the pain of lovesickness.
It was just too bad that they were already forever separated by life and death now.
…
Five days later, Ye Yuan came out from inside the cave. His gaze, when looking at the old ancestor, was filled with complexity.
“Huhu, if you want to take revenge, bring it on,” the old ancestor smiled and said.
Ye Yuan looked at him and suddenly sighed and said, “Forget it. Actually, I can understand you. Mother is already someone on the verge of death. You don’t wish to have Father and I be reared in this place like livestock in pens as well, so you drove us out. This cave is a grave, but how is this Divine Beast Realm not a large tomb? If my conjectures are right, outsiders will probably also be cursed if they stay here for a long time, right?”
The old ancestor’s smile withdrew, his gaze revealing a look of surprise.
He really did not expect that Ye Yuan would say these words.
“Haha, Jun-er really gave birth to a fine son!” The old ancestor suddenly burst out laughing.
“It’s just that I’m very confused, how did you know that I’ll be fine if I go to the outside world? Presumably, you also didn’t perceive that I was of the Atavism Dragon Soul back then, right?”
The old ancestor smiled and said, “Because you’re a human! This land of exile’s curse is merely targeted at demon races! As long as people of the outside world enters this place for over half a year, they will likewise be planted with the curse! It’s just that this place never had outsiders enter before, so this sort of thing, nobody knew either; that’s all.”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, “So that’s how it is! I still have one more thing. Old Ancestor please resolve the confusion.”
The old ancestor nodded and said, “You say.”
“When I previously saw the four great head elders use the four clans’ martial techniques at the same time, it actually produced a certain kind of resonance. From there, the power increased tremendously! I wonder if this was coincidental, or the four of them specially trained before in the path of joint-attacks?” Ye Yuan said curiously
The old ancestor smiled and said, “This will have to start from the origin of the Four Symbols Family Clans.”
Chapter 1249 - Activating the Sacred Dragon Token!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Four clans' origin?"
Ye Yuan's expression turned stern, not expecting that what he got was actually such an answer.
After Heavenly Dao went missing, the Divine Realm's Demon Region declined very quickly.
After that war 50 thousand years ago, the Four Symbols Family Clans even suffered a major loss in vitality.
Right now, although there was Long Min, this kind of powerhouse, they were still much weaker than the human race on the whole.
In the process, there were a lot of secrets buried in oblivion in history.
Ye Yuan really did not know what the origin of the Four Symbols Family Clans was.
Since the Four Symbols Family Clans each had their own progenitors, then where did these progenitors come from?
The old ancestor slowly said, "Azure Dragon of the East, White Tiger of the West, Vermilion Bird of the South, Black Tortoise of the North, the Four Great Divine Beasts' progenitors were once the Divine Realm's guardian divine beasts. The four great progenitors' strengths were exceedingly formidable. Working together to suppress the four directions, no one dared to disobey! Even Origin Deity Realm powerhouses will also turn to dust with a flick of a finger under the Four Symbols Grand Array formed by them!"
Ye Yuan's mind was in upheaval from hearing it.
What kind of existence Origin Deity Realm was, Ye Yuan was completely unable to imagine.
Could it be that the four great progenitors were beings even stronger than Origin Deity Realm?
"Just what kind of existences where the four great progenitors?" Ye Yuan could not resist asking.
But the old ancestor shook his head and said, "I don't know either! I just know, very, very strong! Their strength is not what the likes of us can surmise at all. As for the specifics of how strong, only they themselves knew."
Ye Yuan drew a cold breath, instantly feeling somewhat perturbed.
The four great progenitors, that was definitely existences more than a million years ago.
Then just what was the even more ancient Divine Realm like?
Why did the present Divine Realm wither to this point?
Ye Yuan discovered that the more he knew, the more uncertain he became instead.
This Divine Realm was far from as simple as seen on the surface.
"All of the Four Symbols Family Clans' martial techniques were passed down by the four great progenitors, complementing each other, and secretly encompassed Heavenly Dao. Once performed at the same time, the resonance of Dao will appear, and from there, the power will increase greatly," the old ancestor said.
"So, that's how it is!" Only then did Ye Yuan come to a realization.
The four great head elders' strength was merely the bottom of the Ten Great Divine Kings.
But their combined attack was even a notch above the Darkness Divine King, Sikong Shang.
The amplification involved was not just a tiny bit.
"Huhu, the four of them, their strengths are too weak. They are completely unable to unleash the power of the combined attack. If it was the combined attack of Grotto Profound Deity Realms, they can even cross a major realm to battle!" said the old ancestor.
Ye Yuan's pupils constricted, frightened by the old a
ncestor's words.
Deity Realm powerhouses crossing a major realm to battle, this was simply something unimaginable.
Even for peak Grotto Profound Deity Realms, it was also impossible to be a Heaven Glimpse Deity Realm's match.
This kind of increase was simply inconceivable.
Ye Yuan suddenly thought of something and asked again, "The Four Symbols Family Clans' Seven Constellation Grand Array could even summon their respective guardian spirits. I wonder if they can produce a resonance by being together?"
Back then, Ji Canglan restrained the spirit of the white tiger, but was thwarted by Ye Yuan.
His goal at that time was just the spirit of the white tiger, and not destroy the tiger clan.
It seemed like the fiend race wanted to use the spirits of the four symbols to do something.
Ye Yuan only had this query because he recalled this matter.
The old ancestor nodded and said, "That four Seven Constellation Grand Arrays were originally one. Combined together, it's called the 28 Constellation Grand Array. It was laid down by the four great sacred ancestors, and had a trace of ancestral spirit entrusted in it. Later on, the four clans' members became more and more, and there was a powerhouse who split the grand array into four, becoming each clan's clan protecting grand array. It's just that presently, Heavenly Dao is missing, the power of the ancestral spirits are less than one-ten thousandth as well, its power far worse than before. However, if the four spirits combined attacks, that power absolutely can't be underestimated."
Ye Yuan's gaze dimmed slightly. He kept feeling that Kanuo's goal was not merely unifying the Divine Realm.
Also, Kanuo had once said something 'Immortal Grove Region' before. It seemed like it was referring to the Divine Realm.
Ye Yuan had always found this very odd. But this kind of thing, probably even Fang Tian could not answer him either.
But, all these were not important. The most important thing right now was to eradicate Kanuo!
As long as he could break through to Deity Realm, by relying on the Voice of the Dragon God, he was absolutely able to kill Kanuo.
Even if his strength recovered completely, as long as there was Heavenly Dao suppressing, the outcome was also the same.
"You're leaving?" asked the old ancestor.
Ye Yuan came back to his senses from his rumination and said with a nod, "I'm going to enter the god-forbidden region and search for the opportunity to become a deity!"
The old ancestor's gaze turned sharp, and he said in surprise, "The god-forbidden region is a place that even Deity Realm powerhouses don't dare to set foot in!"
Ye Yuan nodded and said, "But that's also the only place where it's possible to become a deity! Old ancestor, perhaps … you'll come a day where you can see the light of day again!"
The old ancestor's entire body trembled, his gaze revealing a look of shock.
Linking it to Ye Yuan possessing the Atavism Dragon Soul, he understood what Ye Yuan wanted to do very soon.
Now that Heavenly Dao was missing, this kind of thinking … was tantamount to a fool's talk!
Except, why was he so excited?
"Sigh, for Jun-er to have a son like you, it's truly obtaining heaven's blessing! Yun-er, you possess the Atavism Dragon Soul, I have nothing to teach you. But there's one thing that I believe can help you a little." The old ancestor said.
Ye Yuan's eyes lit up, and he quietly waited for the old ancestor to carry on talking.
The old ancestor said quietly, "The Sacred Dragon Token, you probably still can't control it yet, right?"
Ye Yuan said in surprise, "How did you know?"
The old ancestor laughed and said, "Heavenly Dao is missing, Divine Dao dwindling to zero, there's naturally nobody in the outside world who can control the Sacred Dragon Token! And the method to control the Sacred Dragon Token, only the dragon clan's Deity Realm powerhouses know!"
"This … I've attempted to produce a resonance with the Sacred Dragon Token using divine rank dragon wave before, and also attempted to activate with blood essence. But without exception, they all failed," Ye Yuan said helplessly.
The Sacred Dragon Token was a heavenly divine artifact, its power was definitely a grade above the Evil Extermination Sword.
Concerning all these, Ye Yuan thought about all the methods that he could think of but had never succeeded before.
Feeling helpless, Ye Yuan could only give up.
He did not expect that there was actually an unexpected surprise today. The old ancestor actually knew the method to activate the Sacred Dragon Token.
"Huhu, the Sacred Dragon Token is my dragon race's supreme treasure, and it was personally forged by Lord Sacred Ancestor, who used it as the token to be patriarch. If it could be activated by anyone who obtained it, then wouldn't my race have the possibility of being controlled by people at any time?" said old ancestor.
"Makes sense," Ye Yuan said with a nod.
"The Sacred Dragon Token was forged by the sacred ancestor with blood essence, and he used a great divine ability to integrate the method of activating the Sacred Dragon Token into the inheritance memory. Only dragon race powerhouses that broke through to the Deity Realm can get to know the method of using the Sacred Dragon Token. Of course, that's also just knowing. Only by obtaining the Sacred Dragon Token's recognition can one become the lord of the dragon clan, and be able to activate the Sacred Dragon Token. Otherwise, even if Origin Deity Realm powerhouses obtain it, they would also be unable to unleash its true power!" said the old ancestor.
"So that's how it is! This way, there's only you alone in this world currently who knows the way to activate this Sacred Dragon Token?" Ye Yuan said in surprise.
No wonder even he used everything up his sleeves, he was still unable to activate the Sacred Dragon Token.
If not for him mistakenly entering the land of exile, he could probably only activate it by breaking through to the Deity Realm.
Chapter 1250 - Transfigured Heaven Stabilizing Divine King
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Inside a mountain ridge not far from the Soul Refining Sect space, figures huddled together. Several martial artists were currently being hunted down by a desolate beast.
“Split up and run! This desolate beast’s speed is too fast! Once it catches up, none of us can escape,” suddenly, one of them shouted.
That desolate beast’s aura was turbulent. Moreover, its speed was bizarre, looking like it was about to catch up to the few people.
Right at this time, everyone just felt a blur before their eyes, as if a figure passed by them.
Boom!
Flesh and blood flew everywhere!
The few people turned deathly pale from fright and discovered that the desolate beast was already smashed into meat paste.
A figure had his back facing them, standing with hands behind his back.
The few martial artists could not help exchanging glances, shocked by the other party’s skill.
“Many thanks for Senior taking action to help!” The few people bowed their bodies to salute.
That person slowly turned around. When everyone saw the other party’s face, their faces all changed drastically!
“Heaven Stabilizing Divine King! You … You’re actually not dead!”
The few people turned pale from fright. The one who saved them was actually Zhuge Qingxuan, who they thought had already died inside the Soul Refining Sect space.
“Jeje, you guys seem to … hope for this seat to die very much?” Zhuge Qingxuan suddenly said with an eerie laugh.
The current Zhuge Qingxuan’s temperament was akin to a different person from before.
Although the Zhuge Qingxuan in the past was overbearing, he did not have any sinister feeling at all.
But now, just this smile made a chill run down people’s spines.
Giving him a glance, there was a feeling like falling into an ice cellar.
“T-This lowly one doesn’t
mean that! We heard that Your Excellency encountered a huge problem in the Soul Refining Sect space, and even thought that …”
That person wanted to explain but was directly cut off by Zhuge Qingxuan with a wave of his hand.
“This seat asks you, where’s Ye Yuan now?!” Zhuge Qingxuan said.
The few people’s expressions changed, virtually shaking their heads at the same time.
The Heaven Surmounting Divine King was the savior of them brothers. How could they betray the Heaven Surmounting Divine King?
“Your Excellency, the Heaven Surmounting Divine King actually came as well? This lowly one … never saw him!” That person at the front of the few people said.
“Jeje, still dare to play this sort of little tricks in front of this seat? Looks like the few of you are good brothers, right? Since that’s the case …”
While talking, Zhuge Qingxuan casually pointed a finger out.
Pierce!
A martial artist’s forehead directly had a large hole pierced through, toppling stiffly onto the ground without even having time to resist.
“Fourth Brother!” When that person in front saw this scene, his eyes turned bloodshot from rage.
“Give you three breaths of time!” Zhuge Qingxuan said coolly.
The eyes of that person in the lead because bloodshot, glaring at Zhuge Qingxuan angrily.
“Three breaths your ass! You despicable fellow, you aren’t even fit to carry shoes for the Heaven Surmounting Divine King! Heaven is really blind, to actually not make you, this mongrel, die inside! Brothers, even if we’re exterminated today, we can’t betray the Heaven Surmounting Divine King either! Attack together with me and kill this vermin!”
There was a total of five people in this party. They were originally itinerant cultivators who became sworn brothers because their temperaments were congenial. The older brother was already a Void Mystic powerhouse, and the other few people were also all Divine King Realm powerhouses.
They originally did not have much feeling toward the struggle between the Heaven Surmounting Divine King and Heaven Stabilizing Divine King. But entering the Godsfall Mountain Range this trip, they were first chased by Zhuge Qingxuan to be cannon fodders, then moved by Ye Yuan later.
