But Ye Yuan discovered that no matter how he spied on them, they were unable to detect it.
This kind of state was absolutely not what Ancestor Realm could reach.
One had to know, these were all late-stage Empyrean Realm mighty experts. Furthermore, their divine souls were incomparably powerful. Even a trace of the rustling of leaves in the wind could not hide from their eyes and ears.
"Could it be that … I'm currently spying on them through this Sea of Law? Which is also to say that I'm this area's Heavenly Dao? The chance is hard to come by! I have to experience it carefully."
Ye Yuan was amazed in his heart! It was as if he had fused into one body with Heavenly Dao laws.
He was Heavenly Dao, and Heavenly Dao was him, Ye Yuan!
Ye Yuan recollected his thoughts and started comprehending Heavenly Dao.
Time flew by quickly. In a twinkle, a month went by.
The group of Empyreans opened both eyes in succession, withdrawing from a meditative state, regretful looks on their faces.
With this comprehension, they each gleaned considerable benefits.
But this kind of comprehension was limited in the end. Their realm was not there yet, indulging in the Sea of Law for a long time would make them blow up and die.
No matter how strong Empyreans were, they were also not stronger than Heavenly Dao.
This level of Sea of Law was like an inexhaustible nourishing liquid.
Drinking a bit could make people full.
But drinking too much, one would probably be excessively nourished by it and even potentially stuffed themselves to death.
But these powers of laws were already sufficient for them to digest for a very long time.
As for those alchemists that listened attentively to the sermon, they had long already withdrawn respectively.
Their strength was not able to withstand such a vast Sea of Law at all.
"I ddn't expect that this Sea of Law actually lasted for more than a month, truly seldom-seen! Mn? Ye Yuan is still comprehending?" Empyrean Pilljade said with a frown.
Logically speaking, Ye Yuan's realm was inferior to his and should have long withdrawn.
Flutterfeather also had a look of surprise and said in a solemn voice, "This guy, doesn't he understand the logic of biting off more than one can chew?"
The group of Empyrean was also greatly surprised. They all, these Empyreans, had already withdrawn and Ye Yuan was actually still indulging inside.
"Brother Flutterfeather, Ye Yuan's state seems to be somewhat amiss!" Empyrean Purplewing warned.
Empyrean Flutterfeather's face changed. Looking over carefully, he discovered that Ye Yuan's condition indeed seemed to be not quite right.
The current Ye Yuan was seemingly like an empty husk, his body without any lease of life.
"No way! I can't let him continue like this! I have to wake him up!"
Finished talking, Empyrean Flutterfeather's figure moved and entered the Sea of Law once more, attempting to wake Ye Yuan up.
But right at this time, a bolt of lightning the size of a bowl suddenly fell from above the nine heavens without the slightest signs.
Crack, crack … boom!
Empyrean Flutterfeather's face changed drastically, a feeling of danger immediately welling up in his heart.
How could he dare to hesitate at all? His figure retreated explosively at once.
Right at that instant, his figure withdrew from the Sea of Law, and the lightning suddenly dissipated. It was as if it had never appeared before.
Came swiftly, departure was quick too.
But Empyrean Flutterfeather's back was already drenched in sweat.
"This … Just what's going on here?" Empyrean Purplewing said with surprise.
"Looks like the Sea of Law can't be entered. We can only pray that Ye Yuan will be safe." Empyrean Flutterfeather shook his head and said with a sigh.
That lightning earlier was too terrifying. It was as if it was the might of heaven and earth.
If he was any slower, he would likely have already turned to ashes.
But some Empyreans that found Ye Yuan displeasing to the eyes were secretly rejoicing in their hearts currently.
Especially Empyrean Proudcloud, the joy on his face practically could not be concealed.
"Heh, the evil that people bring on themselves is the hardest to bear! This punk was self-assured that his talent is exceedingly high and really thought that this Sea of Law is his home's backyard, staying as long as he wanted to?" Empyrean Proudcloud said with a cold smile.
Empyrean Pilljade was also secretly delighted in his heart. But he did not show it and just said coolly, "All disperse."
Time slowly trickled by, the group of Empyreans naturally would not idle away here too, each seeking place and going into closed-seclusion.
At this time, the Cloudpill Summit already completely ended. But there were still many people gathered around Tianyue Plaza, looking at that figure on the high platform with concerned looks.
Ye Yuan's sermon benefited everyone. There were always some people who felt grateful. Although they could not do anything, they could still be concerned about Ye Yuan at one side.
One day, two days.
One month, two months.
One year, two years …
In a blink, more than two years already passed. Ye Yuan sat withered on the platform just like that, with no signs of life on his body at all.
Many people all let out deep sighs, turned around, and left.
There were already not many people in Tianyue Plaza.
"Sigh, how can this be? Grandmaster Ye is so remarkably talented. Why would he die here?"
"We received Grandmaster Ye's kindness, but I didn't expect that … he died here!"
Everyone shook their heads and sighed. Suddenly, a voice said with a cold snort, "Shut up! Grandmaster Ye won't die! He must be comprehending the Heavenly Dao! There will come one day where he'll wake up!"
By the side, Song Zichun shook his head and said with a sigh, "Forget it, Lin Tong. Come on, it's already been two years! Didn't you see that those Seven-star Alchemy Gods could only stay for more than a month in the Sea of Law too?"
Lin Tong smiled coldly and said, "Heh, so what? Grandmaster Ye was able to trigger the Sea of Law to descend. So how can he possibly die here? Didn't you see that the Sea of Law is still there and didn't dissipate? Song Zichun, if you want to go, leave. I must wait for Grandmaster Ye to wake up! Grandmaster Ye gave me a new life; not seeing him wake up, I'll find it hard to set my mind at ease!"
Originally, Song Zichun was Ye Yuan's most staunch supporter.
But along with the time getting longer and longer, Ye Yuan's aura got weaker and weaker. Even he had no confidence anymore as well.
Rather, it was Lin Tong who was extremely stubborn, insisting firmly that Ye Yuan did not die and must wait for him to wake up.
Song Zichun let out a sigh, turned around, and left.
However, things did not develop according to Lin Tong's idea.
This wait of his was ten years. But Ye Yuan did not show any signs of waking up.
Chapter 2051 - The Superficiality of Human Relationsh.i.p.s
"Duan Yunfei, have you trained Serene Cloud Three Hundred Hands a thousand times? You dare to slack off here?" Yun Yi looked at the Duan Yunfei currently basking in the sun, reproaching angrily.
Duan Yunfei was the youth surnamed Duan who ridiculed Ye Yuan back then. When choosing a master, Duan Yunfei similarly joined in choosing Ye Yuan without the slightest hesitation.
After their group of people came to Heavenly Eagle Imperial City, they joined the Pill Tower. It was just that according to Ye Yuan's instructions, they could only become medicine boys. Disregarding these miscellaneous chores, what they cultivated were also the most basic alchemy techniques.
To these alchemy geniuses who were arrogant at heart and haughty in manner, this was simply something that could not be tolerated.
They had
to repeatedly do some dreary things every day, there was no time to cultivate at all.
In their view, it was completely wasting time.
This was not tempering them at all, but making fun of them.
In less than half a year, more than ten people left Heavenly Eagle Imperial City.
After a year, another seven to eight people could not endure it and left.
These genius disciples more or less had some background.
Later, after they heard the news of Ye Yuan's demise, one after another left in swarms.
Now that ten years had passed, the original 40 people only had three scanty people left.
Apart from Yun Yi and Duan Yunfei, there was also a young man called Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan was the Five-star group's 20th place, which was also the last place. But only he persisted until now.
Even Luo Tianqi also immediately chose to leave after hearing that Ye Yuan fell.
"Heh, Brother Yun, if you didn't make me stay behind, I, Duan Yunfei, would have long left! A lousy Serene Cloud Three Hundred Hands, I've already trained no less than several tens of thousands of times. What use is there? Moreover, Ye Yuan is already dead. Is there still meaning in continuing to persist?" Duan Yunfei said with a disdainful face.
Yun Yi's brows furrowed, and he said with a cold snort, "Duan Yunfei, I kept on making you cultivate diligently, but you wouldn't listen! Reading a book 100 times, the meaning can naturally be seen. Refining pills is also the same logic! If you trained in the Serene Hand Three Hundred Hands diligently, there will absolutely be a different feeling."
Duan Yunfei chuckled and said, "Enough of that! Merely a rank one or two alchemy technique, what kind of different feeling can there be? You already trained diligently for ten years, but I didn't see that your realm had any breakthrough either! Forget it, forget it! I don't have the time to waste time here. Brother Yun, you're really not leaving together with me?"
By the side, Yang Xuan said, "Brother Duan, what Brother Yun said is correct. I also didn't expect that these foundational alchemy techniques still had such miraculous comprehensions in the past. If you cultivate diligently, it will really be different!"
Duan Yunfei gave a cold snort and said, "What has it got to do with you? Do you think you can call me Brother Duan? Get lost!"
Yun Yi's brows knitted tightly, and he said in a solemn voice, "You really want to go?"
Duan Yunfei said coolly, "Brother Yun, it's not that I'm criticising you, but no matter how great Ye Yuan's talent was, he also played himself to death! Your talent is currently the Southern Border's number one, but you want to waste your time here?"
Yun Yi heaved a sigh and said, "Forget it! There is little common ground for understanding between persons of differing principles. Leave! It's just that, hope you don't regret it in the future!"
Duan Yunfei smiled and said, "Regret? How is that possible! Brother Yun, the one regretting will be you! It's already been ten years, yet Ye Yuan didn't even wake up. Do you feel that he can still wake up?"
Finished talking, Duan Yunfei left with a loud laugh.
Yang Xuan let out a sigh and said, "Brother Yun, I really didn't expect that you could actually persist until this step."
Yun Yi was somewhat lost in deep reverie. Hearing Yang Xuan said this, he smiled slightly and said, "Is it that in your eyes, I'm just a silkpants, and that I can't endure hardsh.i.p.s and suffering?"
Yang Xuan blushed. Clearly, he thought so.
But in these ten years, Yun Yi's actions and conduct indeed made him view him in a different light.
He was the one among everyone who could bear the most hardsh.i.p.s and also cultivated the most diligently.
Even these rank one and two alchemy techniques, he had long already memorized them thoroughly, but he still practiced them again and again fastidiously,
When everyone was about to leave, it was also Yun Yi who spoke up and urged earnestly.
It was just that no one listened to him at all.
Musing for a moment, Yang Xuan suddenly said, "Brother Yun, then do you feel that … Grandmaster Ye can really come back?"
Yun Yi's gaze turned intent. Heaving a sigh, he shook his head and said, "Honestly telling you, I also don't know!"
Yang Xuan said in surprise, "T-Then you're still staying here?"
Yun Yi smiled bitterly and said, "If it were five years ago, I still had some confidence that Grandmaster Ye can return. But it's already ten years now, that side has already sent news that Grandmaster Ye's body is already totally without any breathing. It's completely the manifestation of not having any life force. The reason why I stayed here is that I felt that Grandmaster Ye wasn't just testing us. He was really teaching us things. Ever since arriving at the Pill Tower, I discovered that turns out one can cultivate like this. The things that we originally overlooked are too many. Yang Xuan, I think that you also have the same feeling, right?"
Yang Xuan nodded his head seriously and said, "It's indeed like so! A towering skyscr.a.p.er is constructed from its very base. We think that our alchemy talent is outstanding, but we neglected the importance of foundation. I think that for Grandmaster Ye to be able to have such terrifying strength at a young age, a very large part of the reason comes from this, right?"
Yun Yi nodded his head, deeply feeling that way too.
In these 10 years, Empyrean Pilljade called him back many times, but he refused to go back no matter what.
He was waiting, waiting for a miracle to appear!
...
Empyrean Flutterfeather looked at the Ye Yuan inside the Sea of Law, his gaze was extremely complicated.
"Ye Yuan, are you really dead? This Empyrean doesn't believe that you'll die in this matter. But … it's been ten years. Why haven't you woken up yet?" Empyrean Flutterfeather said with a sigh.
"Heh heh, Brother Flutterfeather came again? It's already been more than ten years. You still haven't given up? This kid pried into Heavenly Dao, his divine soul has long been wiped out already. You're actually still thinking that he can come back to life?" Empyrean Proudcloud said with a snicker.
Empyrean Flutterfeather's brows furrowed slightly and said with a cold snort, "Proudcloud, these few years, the few of you went against the Peak Alchemy Meet's agreement and secretly ate Heavenly Eagle's territory. Do you really think that my Myriad Treasure Tower is to be trifled with?"
Empyrean Proudcloud laughed loudly and said, "Brother Flutterfeather's words are not right! Ye Yuan has already died. The places that Heavenly Eagle has jurisdiction over naturally became ownerless lands. Such a large territory, if those martial artists don't have medicinal pills, how to cultivate? We're also blessing a region by doing so, right?"
Flutterfeather's gaze turned slightly cold and was just about to fly into a rage when suddenly, his expression changed, gazing toward the Sea of Law in alarm.
But Empyrean Proudcloud laughed wildly and said, "Hahaha! The Sea of Law has started dissipating! Brother Flutterfeather, you can help Ye Yuan collect his corpse already."
Not far away, the Sea of Law that had been calm all along finally had activities.
The vast power of law made the spiritual energy around Tianyue Plaza produce intense undulations.
Rumble!
Right at this time, the winds and clouds suddenly changed. The sky gradually became dim.
In the space where the Sea of Law was at, a violent storm suddenly swept up. Limitless heaven and earth spiritual energy closed in toward the Sea of Law frenziedly.
Countless heaven and earth spiritual energy condensed to form a spiritual energy fog, turning corporeal!
And this storm was formed with Ye Yuan as the center!
Empyrean Flutterfeather was wildly elated in his heart. He then laughed coldly and said, "Collect corpse? Looks like … there's no need anymore! I think you'd better think about how to give an account to the alliance!"
Chapter 2052 - All-round Breakthrough!
"This … how is this possible?"
/>
Empyrean Proudcloud's pupils constricted, with his expression changing wildly, looking at Ye Yuan who was at the center of the storm in disbelief.
This kind of thing should not happen at all!
Ye Yuan, he, was actually breaking through?
How could a person possibly last for as long as ten years inside such a horrifying Sea of Law?
The current Ye Yuan's imposing aura was extremely exuberant, with his life force thriving. How was there still any appearance of a dead person?
Ten years had gone by. There were only a scanty few people left who were still waiting for Ye Yuan to wake up around Tianyue Plaza. Lin Tong was among them.
Seeing this marvelous sight, Lin Tong's face showed wild ecstasy, his entire body was trembling in agitation.
"Hahaha! Grandmaster Ye indeed didn't die! Indeed didn't die! I knew that he wouldn't die! He wouldn't die!" Lin Tong said with near madness.
In these ten years, his mood fell to rock-bottom bit by bit. He even could not hold on anymore already.
But thinking of Ye Yuan's grace to him, he still persisted.
Around Tianyue Plaza, one figure after another suddenly appeared.
Those Empyrean powerhouses that had not left Cloudpill Great Imperial Capital showed up one after another.
Actually, the majority of the Empyreans did not leave.
They benefited a great deal inside the Sea of Law. Naturally, the earlier they comprehended, the more they digested.
Hence, in these ten years, a majority of the people all stayed behind in Cloudpill Great Imperial Capital.
At this time, everyone's faces were full of marvel.
They never would have thought that not only did Ye Yuan come back to life, but he also even caused such a huge commotion.
Looking at this, Ye Yuan's breakthrough was not simple!
This kind of commotion was far stronger compared to breaking through to Fourth Firmament True God!
"Grandmaster Ye really can't be gauged with common sense! Who could have thought that he was still for ten years? Not only did he come back to life, but there's also even such a huge breakthrough." Empyrean Lumen lamented.
