That's right. In that battle, even the four Supreme Ones had no choice but to perish. As powerful as the Invincible Supreme One was, he still met his end, his Dao extinguished. A single Chaos Divine Tree, even if brimming with potential and having transformed into human form to cultivate the Dao, could not be mentioned in the same breath as a Supreme One. It must have been damaged in that battle, losing over ninety percent of its Chaos Saint Spirit origin.
Ye Chen thought that this being the case, although the Mitian Divine Tree could still allow one to live a second life, it was already somewhat limited. At the very least, for super-powerful experts like Ye Chen, who rivaled Sovereigns of the Third Heaven and above, even completely refining the Chaos Divine Tree would not allow them to live a second life. At most, it could only extend their lifespan by one-tenth.
He sighed inwardly. It was truly a pity that a Chaos Divine Tree had been ruined like this.
For some unknown reason, however, he vaguely felt something was unusual. It seemed the loss of the Chaos Divine Tree's origin didn't quite match what he had imagined.
Not long after, he also left the Doumen World, moving to a brand new secluded cultivation site.
It wasn't that the Doumen Organization was expelling him. In fact, after learning of Ye Chen's true origins, they wouldn't dare to drive him away at all. On the contrary, they welcomed him immensely.
But it was precisely this welcome, this enthusiasm, that made Ye Chen somewhat uncomfortable, prompting him to change to a new secluded cultivation site.
Speaking of which, this new secluded cultivation site was related to the Primordial Demonic Dragon. It was the dwelling place of its Demonic Dragon clan, located on a primordial continent within the boundless sea of the Weiyang Great World. It was inhabited by countless demonic beasts, spanning tens of millions of miles in radius, only slightly smaller than the Nine Great Continents.
Ye Chen cultivated in seclusion on this ancient continent named Heavenly Dragon Continent, while waiting for news from the Doumen Organization regarding the Supreme Inheritance.
During this period, he also began to guide Ning'er in her cultivation.
He was very fond of Ning'er, this young girl who had never left his side from beginning to end. It was as if he saw the Ruo Xi of the past in her, treating her like a younger sister. He also earnestly guided her on her cultivation path.
Originally, the Snow Sect was one of the immortal forces on the Weiyang Continent. Such a force could naturally be considered among the top forces on the entire Weiyang Continent. The fact that Ning'er was accepted as a disciple by the Snow Sect and brought by Nan Gongxue to participate in the Peach Banquet was enough to prove that her own cultivation talent was quite remarkable.
At the very least, she possessed King-level talent.
In the cultivation world, talent is divided into: Ordinary, Outstanding, Marquis, King, True King, Low-level Young Supreme, High-level Young Supreme, and Strongest Young Supreme.
Among them, the Strongest Young Supreme, also known as the Great Perfection Supreme Genius, falls into the category of Imperial Sons and Daughters, or children of Immortal Dao.
Of course, Ye Chen was a Chaos Young Supreme, surpassing even the Great Perfection Supreme Genius, comparable to the Heavenly Emperor and Primordial Ancestor in their youth. He possessed the potential of a future overlord who could become the strongest Emperor, even transcending beyond.
Ning'er possessing King-level talent also meant she had the potential to become a Heavenly King.
This was considered extremely good.
King-level talent was not something just anyone was qualified for. Even the talents of heirs from immortal forces like Gu Xuan and Nan Gongxue were only at the King-level.
Each step up in talent level was incredibly difficult.
Of course, it wasn't difficult for Ye Chen. He could elevate her to True King-level talent.
As for the Young Supreme level of talent, that was not something Ye Chen could intervene with.
One needed to comprehend the true mysteries of the Tenth Heaven to truly step into the Young Supreme talent stage.
Otherwise, the Chaos Heavenly Mansion would be full of Young Supremes.
However, under Ye Chen's refinement, a large number of Mitian Peaches were completely integrated into Ning'er's body, causing her physical body to undergo a transformation. Her Primordial Spirit was similarly affected. At a young age, she had already mastered many Dao principles, giving birth to Dao marks, and also wielded powerful Mitian Power, which was a form of physical divine strength.
Although Ning'er still appeared to be only a Demigod, her physical body had long since achieved the Divine Transformation Body, making her a quasi-Divine Transformation existence.
Ning'er's comprehension was quite high. Under Ye Chen's guidance, she began to gradually master the power within her body and comprehend the Great Dao laws.
Moreover, Ye Chen hoped that Ning'er could comprehend the mysteries of the Tenth Heaven while still at the Demigod realm. If so, she would be a Strongest Young Supreme, her talent and potential no less than those of Imperial Sons and Daughters or children of Immortal Dao.
Of course, the possibility was minuscule, even with Ye Chen's help.
All Ye Chen could do was create a perfect Tenth Heaven environment, allowing her to enter his Tenth Heaven Divine Halo.
He was the first person since the Mythical Era of the Sealed Universe to break the cruel shackles of the Heavenly Dao and become a Young Supreme. His Tenth Heaven Divine Halo possessed a more perfect Heavenly Dao aura than anyone else's, making it easier for others to comprehend the mysteries of the Tenth Heaven.
But that was all. Whether one could truly comprehend it ultimately depended on Ning'er's own understanding. He merely increased the possibility a bit.
At the same time, Ye Chen also had the Doumen Organization search for Sheng Xu's whereabouts, including the locations of other super-powerful experts from the Sacred Emperor Domain faction.
Naturally, Ye Chen's goal had always been simple.
Catch them all in one net!
Exterminate them completely!
Especially Sheng Xu, the third son of the Strongest Emperor Saint. If not for the Sealing Gates that day, it would have been truly difficult to defeat this terrifying Imperial Son.
He was also a major threat in the upcoming struggle for the Supreme Inheritance in the Weiyang Great World. No matter what, Ye Chen hoped to slay him with his sword!
However, Sheng Xu seemed to have anticipated Ye Chen's search long ago and hid very secretly. Even the Doumen Organization couldn't find a single trace.
Ye Chen wasn't disappointed. When the day the Supreme Inheritance appeared truly arrived, Sheng Xu would inevitably show up.
At this stage, he continued to refine the Sovereign's origin worlds to enhance his strength. That was the most important thing at present.
And so, while everyone from both major factions was searching for the Supreme Inheritance in the Weiyang Great World, time passed in the blink of an eye—thirty years.
That's right, a full thirty years had passed.
No one had anticipated such a long passage of time.
It was also because the Supreme Inheritance had yet to appear.
Similarly, the fourth Supreme Inheritance among the Three Thousand Great Worlds had also yet to appear.
Over these thirty years, Ye Chen finally completely devoured and refined the origin worlds of the remaining two alien Sovereigns. His origin universe expanded even more, and similarly, the mysterious cosmic dawn light had greatly enhanced Ye Chen to the maximum extent.
Now, all his aspects had improved immeasurably. Whether it was his physical body, his divine soul, or his divine power, all had increased significantly. His Dao attainment was absolutely profound.
He also felt an unprecedented level of strength.
Even Han Zhen, who came to visit on the day Ye Chen emerged from seclusion, felt a tremor from the depths of his heart.
It must be noted that he was an Ancient Sovereign, even if only at the First Heaven. For an Ancient Sovereign like him to feel such a tremor, one could imagine just how powerful Ye Chen had become.
And remember, Ye Chen was still at the Quasi-Sovereign stage, having not yet truly taken that crucial step. Yet he was already this terrifying.
How powerful would he be the day he truly took that step?
