Boom—
A great battle erupted ahead, shaking the surrounding wilderness and drawing the attention of all parties.
Both sides were Great Powers. One was a super Heaven's Pride from a royal clan, in no way inferior to Jian Tian or Ancient Luo King, accompanied by a group of powerful royal clan experts. Their aura was formidable, their bearing extraordinary, intimidating all around.
The other side was also a young super Heaven's Pride. Though he stood alone, his majestic presence was awe-inspiring. When clashing with the royal clan super Heaven's Pride, he was not the slightest bit inferior, his every move brimming with annihilating, terrifying power capable of destroying everything.
The two were locked in a fierce confrontation, intense and tumultuous.
The source of their duel was a medicinal spirit with a lifespan exceeding a hundred thousand years.
The Chaos Pure Land contained countless treasures; Heaven and Earth Treasures were everywhere. Even ten-thousand-year medicinal treasures were not as rare as they were in the outside world. Some priceless, rare herbs that had vanished from the outside world could surprisingly be found here.
Ye Chen's group did not intervene, passing by from the side. The two super Heaven's Prides paid them no mind, continuing their duel.
Similar confrontations were common along the way, numerous and not limited to the younger generation. There were also figures from past generations and older experts, all vying for the many treasures within the Chaos Pure Land.
Ye Chen and the others traversed tens of thousands of li, arriving at another location. Ahead lay a collapsed mountain. Even half of it still towered into the clouds, immense beyond imagination, hinting at the majestic, immortal divine peak it must have been before its fall.
Upon it were the ruins of a magnificent palace complex, with divine islands floating amidst lush greenery. Heaven and Earth Treasures and spiritual veins were everywhere, and spiritual lakes existed as well.
It was evident that in the distant past, a glorious and prosperous supreme power had existed here, but it had long since vanished like smoke, leaving only ruins.
Just as the group was about to enter, they noticed light flickering within the palace ruins. A figure sat cross-legged upon an ancient altar shimmering with myriad colors. Its Dao aura was extremely powerful, radiating an oppressive intent. It was none other than Silver Moon Divine King, the supreme Heaven's Pride of the Silver Heaven Royal Clan.
Naturally, Silver Moon Divine King was not a Nine Tribulation Divine King. He was also at the Great Power realm, an exceptionally powerful super Heaven's Pride. Daring to call himself a Divine King was enough to show his absolute confidence in himself, at the very least capable of ascending to Nine Tribulation Divine King in the future.
His silver hair cascaded over his shoulders, making him appear heroic and handsome. Brilliant silver light coiled around his body, his majestic form immortal as he sat there, absorbing the vast divine power from the ancient altar.
Among it, Dao runes shimmered into view, extraordinary, faintly hinting at mysteries beyond the Great Power realm.
A Divine King's Dao Platform!
Clearly, this ancient altar was once the Dao platform of a Nine Tribulation Divine King. Even though it was dilapidated and had endured endless ages, it still retained some of the Dao charm of that Divine King from long ago.
Ye Chen hadn't expected Silver Moon Divine King to find such a Divine King's Dao Platform. He indeed possessed great fortune and could not be underestimated.
During this time, Silver Moon Divine King opened his eyes. Within each eye, a silver moon hung in the void, dazzling and intimidating. Gu Jiuhua and his son Gu Qingyang dared not meet his gaze directly.
Ye Chen looked back calmly, as did his three Supreme Talents under his command.
A moment later, Silver Moon Divine King gave a slight nod towards Ye Chen. Ye Chen returned the gesture, then turned and left.
After they left, Silver Moon Divine King gazed deeply at the retreating figures of Ye Chen's group, his slender sword-like brows slightly furrowed. He sensed their strength, far beyond what Jian Tian, Ancient Luo King, and others could compare to.
At the same time, Mo Haishen beside him said gravely, "That Silver Moon Divine King is very strong."
"Yes, very strong. I'm not confident I could win," Luo Guyun also spoke up. Abenue nodded as well, a high assessment of Silver Moon Divine King.
It must be known that these three were essentially among the strongest below Imperial Sons, Imperial Maidens, and Immortal Dao descendants. So-called royal clan super Heaven's Prides like Ancient Luo King, Jian Tian, and Tuoba Mo were simply no match for them in their eyes.
But this Silver Moon Divine King was far from that, causing all three to feel a trace of pressure, clearly extraordinary.
Ye Chen said, "The Ten Heavens Ancient Domain gathers Imperial Sons and Imperial Maidens from all ancient universes. Naturally, there are also many other formidable figures, some even not inferior to these supreme descendants. We must not be arrogant, thinking ourselves invincible in the present age."
Everyone nodded. Wasn't their lord precisely such a supreme young Supreme One? Even Imperial Son Hua Chengdao had suffered at his hands.
They even felt that in a true battle, even Imperial Sons and Imperial Maidens would fall before their lord.
Not long after, the group appeared before another ruined divine city suspended in the sky. From within came roars like those of gods and demons. Divine light and demonic light surged against each other, vast and mighty, shaking the heavens and startling all directions.
When Ye Chen and the others rushed up, they found that within the ruined ancient city stood one towering mountain after another. In truth, they were massive ancient tombs—tombs that buried gods and demons.
At the center of these numerous God Demon ancient tombs, dazzling divine light soared into the sky. There was a divine pool about ten feet across, radiating light for ten thousand zhang, entwined with countless Dao patterns and divine marks.
"A God Demon Blood Pool!"
Everyone was astonished. The divine pool before them was the legendary God Demon Blood Pool, condensed from the blood of gods and demons. The pool water here was the very essence of that blood, containing immense divine energy and numerous God Demon Dao marks, incredibly precious. Even a Nine Tribulation Divine King would likely be moved upon seeing this.
Around the God Demon Blood Pool grew various Heaven and Earth Treasures, including ten-thousand-year medicinal treasures and even medicinal spirits. There were also God Demon fruits growing, some holy like angels, others evil like devils.
More importantly, within the God Demon Blood Pool, a figure also sat cross-legged.
However, contrary to expectations of a god-like or demonic figure, this was a figure clad in snow-white robes, and moreover, a woman. She was exceedingly beautiful, though not matching Abenue, she was still a peerless beauty.
At this moment, she sat within, the God Demon blood submerging her entire form. Divine radiance shimmered, faintly revealing a voluptuous and graceful jade-like body, her cloud-like hair cascading down. The exposed skin surpassed mutton-fat jade in fairness, glowing with brilliant light.
The white-robed beauty bathed in the God Demon blood. From time to time, terrifying roars echoed from the God Demon ancient tombs, shaking the heavens.
Only the mysterious white-robed beauty sat alone within. Sacred halos of light coiled around her form, making her resemble a celestial maiden from the Ninth Heaven, spotless and pure. Her eyes were slightly closed as she remained seated.
Beneath her appeared a sacred treasure lotus, slowly rotating, transforming into a sacred halo that enveloped her, devouring all the essence within the God Demon Blood Pool.
Ye Chen and the others could also sense the fluctuations from the white-robed beauty. Though stunningly beautiful, her oppressive aura was no less than Silver Moon Divine King's. Yet another Heaven's Pride talent who had obtained great fortune within the Chaos Pure Land.
"This woman's fortune is truly great, actually gaining enlightenment from the God Demon Blood Pool. Once she refines it, she will likely soar to the heavens," Luo Guyun sighed softly, very much wanting to act and seize this God Demon Blood Pool. If they could enter it, perhaps all of them could make a breakthrough.
But Ye Chen led them away. Due to this woman's extraordinary nature, he was unwilling to rudely interrupt another's enlightenment without cause. It was discourteous and easily led to deadly enmity.
As for the God Demon Blood Pool, it was not enough to make Ye Chen take such a step.
After they left, the white-robed beauty within the God Demon Blood Pool opened her beautiful eyes, gazing at their departing figures, then tightly closed them again. However, her hands formed seals, casting out a massive, enormous light barrier that enveloped the entire God Demon ancient tomb area, preventing others from entering and disturbing her.
Along the way, regarding these various sites of fortune, within the Chaos Pure Land there were clearly more than just one or two. They had encountered at least five such places, but unfortunately, every single one had already been seized by those Heaven's Prides.
Moreover, these Heaven's Prides were often as powerful as Silver Moon Divine King and the white-robed beauty. This type of person seemed relatively mysterious. Aside from Silver Moon Divine King, Ye Chen did not know the true identities of the others.
"The Ten Heavens Ancient Domain truly has hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It cannot be underestimated," the three Supreme Talents under his command sighed lightly, filled with emotion.
"The Chaos Pure Land also holds endless opportunities."
Ye Chen also gained a general understanding of what kind of place the Chaos Pure Land was. Here, Heaven and Earth Treasures were endless, spiritual veins countless.
In ancient times, it was a prosperous and flourishing supreme divine kingdom, very possibly an Emperor Realm created by an ancient Emperor, inhabited by who knows how many races and All Heavens experts. At a glance, one could see numerous ruined ancient cities and skyborne divine cities, some of which still hung suspended to this day, never having fallen.
The Pure Land also contained countless divine islands and many ancient creatures of exotic bloodlines.
In the distant past, within this Chaos Pure Land suspected to be an Emperor Realm, there might even have existed universe overlords like Ancient Monarchs.
Overall, this was a Chaos Pure Land brimming with countless opportunities. Even if one couldn't obtain an Emperor's legacy, perhaps they could gain the legacy of other Nine Tribulation Divine Kings or even Ancient Monarchs.
Ye Chen looked at his three Supreme Talents and said, "You don't need to follow me all the time. You can also go seek your own opportunities. Staying by my side constantly isn't necessarily good; it's not conducive to your cultivation. Here are a few memory jades. Take them, disperse to seek your fortunes, and contact me via the memory jade when necessary. They contain a drop of my essence blood, which can offer temporary protection, and I will rush over immediately."
Hearing this, the three Supreme Talents, who had long felt the impulse, all nodded.
Gu Jiuhua and Gu Qingyang were the same.
However, Gu Qingyang was taken away by Abenue, who claimed she would guide him along the way.
Seeing this, Gu Qingyang's face instantly turned pale. Over these past days, he had come to understand what Abenue's so-called 'guidance' entailed—a deeply unforgettable experience.
He looked pleadingly at Ye Chen, but Ye Chen shook his head and directly refused.
To truly become a dragon, one must undergo countless battles before one can truly transform into a true dragon soaring through the All Heavens.
In the end, only Ye Chen remained alone.
