Crack—
Once again, the sound of countless hearts shattering echoed.
Countless people in the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall envied and were jealous of Ye Chen's heaven-defying luck. For such celestial beauties, ordinary people would willingly sacrifice half their lifespan just to obtain one. Yet he had two.
Xuan Qiong's face was indescribably ugly. The words of the two women felt like a direct challenge to him.
Turning to leave, the various human Heaven's Prides looked at the two women and said with a bitter smile, "Aren't you just making enemies for Ye Chen?"
"Making enemies? Does he even qualify as my husband's enemy?" Yu Qing glanced at Xuan Qiong and said indifferently, "He's just a mere Seventh Heaven Heavenly King. If Yue were to make a move, a single finger would be enough to annihilate him countless times over. This is just to let him know that Yue is not to be trifled with. He has wives like us, with the most superior looks, something not just anyone can compare to. They can only envy and be jealous."
Hearing this, the human Heaven's Prides and the Four Divine Kings could only smile wryly.
Indeed, it's better to offend a petty person than to offend a woman. This saying truly held some truth.
...
The next moment, Ye Chen arrived on the surface of a star. Seeing its entire body shimmering with golden light, he was slightly taken aback. Was this the Dark Gold Dao Star? The golden radiance was clearly so intense.
However, he didn't mind. The so-called first-level gravity was practically non-existent to him.
Spreading his divine sense, he could feel the incredibly rich power of the Metal Great Dao contained within this star, which was ten thousand li in diameter. He couldn't help but marvel.
The Supreme One was indeed a peerless existence that stood aloof across the ages, having condensed the power of the Metal Great Dao into a star, a Dao Star. He could sense that cultivating on this Dao Star long-term would allow one's comprehension of the Metal Great Dao to progress twice as fast as normal.
Did the increased gravity also mean the speed of comprehending the Metal Great Dao power doubled?
He raised his head to look at this starry sky, seeing numerous stars dotting the expanse, each emanating vast and varied Great Dao powers.
Moreover, Ye Chen discovered that the dimmer the Dao Star's light, the stronger and more restrained its Great Dao power became, far surpassing those that shone brilliantly on the surface, approaching a state of returning to simplicity.
Similarly, he saw nine other golden stars in the distant sky—these were the Dark Gold Dao Stars. Each was separated by about a hundred thousand li. This starry sky had three thousand six hundred Dao Stars twinkling, invisibly emitting a terrifying force. Even an ancient Great Power would find it difficult to break through the suppression of so many Dao Star powers and traverse the starry sky.
Only beings at the Divine King level could truly cross the starry sky of the Emperor Star Secret Realm.
Whoosh—
Ye Chen shot into the sky. The first-level Dark Gold Dao Star emitted powerful gravity and attraction, trying to bind and prevent him from leaving. But to Ye Chen, this was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree—utterly insignificant. In a moment, he crossed the hundred-thousand-li distance and arrived on the second-level Dark Gold Dao Star.
Compared to the first-level Dark Gold Dao Star, which was completely empty, the second-level one had a few people—all early-stage Saints, mostly from the younger generation, with a fair number of older cultivators as well.
They used the second-level Dark Gold Star's gravity to temper their physiques. The Metal Great Dao power could also subtly strengthen the body, possessing extraordinary benefits. Otherwise, it wouldn't be worthy of being called a body-tempering star.
The second-level Dark Gold Dao Star possessed triple gravity, making it more suitable for body tempering and cultivating Metal Great Dao power compared to the first level.
However, Ye Chen stayed for only a few breaths before shooting into the sky again.
This scene was noticed by many cultivators on the second-level Dark Gold Dao Star, all of whom showed expressions of shock before bowing in worship.
It was said that only super-powerful beings at the Divine King realm could traverse between stars within the Emperor Star Secret Realm.
Ye Chen moved with extreme speed, swiftly traversing the starry sky. Even within the Emperor Star Secret Realm, his speed was astonishingly fast.
And this was without using any movement techniques. If he employed the Kun Peng Great Universe Art, he could achieve similarly heaven-defying speeds.
Thus, Ye Chen successively crossed the third, fourth, and even fifth-level Dark Gold Dao Stars, finally appearing on the sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star.
The sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star possessed fiftyfold gravity. Its entire body only showed a faint golden light, yet the power of the Metal Great Dao here was countless times stronger than on the first or second-level stars.
Comprehending the Metal Great Dao power here was equivalent to more than fifty times the speed in the outside world.
Ye Chen was truly amazed. The Supreme One who created this Emperor Star Secret Realm truly possessed earth-shaking methods. This Supreme secret realm was only slightly inferior to the Fallen Heaven Mausoleum. If one could obtain it, it would undoubtedly give birth to a large number of powerful experts.
What a pity that the Emperor Star Secret Realm couldn't be taken into one's possession.
The sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star also had numerous powerful experts. Moreover, any cultivator who came to such mid-to-high-level Dao Stars was at least a high-level Heavenly King, with no shortage of super Heavenly Kings or even peak Heavenly King-level experts.
There were even several Great Powers silently cultivating on the sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star, using its power to temper their physiques, making them continuously stronger.
At this moment, the six Heaven's Prides from the Cangtian Divine Sect were cultivating on the sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star. At this very moment, enduring the terrifying gravity, even they couldn't help but look pale.
Among them, Xuan Qiong had only walked a few li before feeling drenched in sweat. His entire body bore the immense gravity, his bones and tendons constantly groaning, his blood qi surging as he continuously resisted the fearsome gravity of the sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star, striving to cultivate.
At this point, he asked the other young Heaven's Prides from the Cangtian Divine Sect, "How do you all feel?"
The situation of the other Cangtian Divine Sect Heaven's Prides wasn't much better than Xuan Qiong's. The junior sister in red was drenched in fragrant sweat, her damp red clothes clinging to her body, vaguely outlining a series of beautiful and alluring curves that stirred Xuan Qiong's heart.
Xuan Qiong circulated his powerful divine power, walking with some difficulty to the red-clothed girl's side. He smiled gently and said, "Junior Sister, how do you feel? If it's too much, you can cultivate by Senior Brother's side. I can withstand a certain amount of gravity, which would make it much easier for you."
The red-clothed girl gave Xuan Qiong a cold glance and said, "No need to trouble Senior Brother. Senior Brother should find other beauties to cultivate with. This junior sister is of mediocre talent and ordinary looks, so I won't delay Senior Brother's cultivation."
"Damn it!"
Hearing this, Xuan Qiong thought of Ye Chen. If it weren't for that guy, he wouldn't be in this situation. Even the junior sister who once admired him was now cold.
What made him even more jealous was that guy actually had two wives as beautiful as celestial beings. He really had stumbled upon incredible luck, leaving Xuan Qiong with nothing but envy and jealousy.
"That guy really hit the jackpot, actually managing to get such celestial, peerlessly beautiful women as wives, and two of them at that," Xuan Qiong thought, his heart filled with indescribable frustration.
"Look! Someone is flying up there!"
Suddenly, exclamations of surprise rang out. On the sixth-level Dark Gold Dao Star, many people noticed a figure soaring through the sky, actually traversing the starry sky. Wreathed in strands of chaotic light, he appeared like a Heavenly God, lofty and supreme.
