Qian, a Supreme One filled with legendary tales.
Just in the past generation, merely a few decades ago, a young prodigy named Qian suddenly emerged, startling the Myriad Domains.
His life could be described as filled with legend. Hailing from the lower realms, he rose step by step from a divine kingdom left behind by an ancient Great Sage, becoming a king in his own right. He then battled various kings, fighting through all monarchs, stepping over the corpses of kings to vie for the inheritance of that ancient Great Sage. Ultimately, he surpassed all kings, achieving the status of the sole True King, thus creating an immortal life legend passed down through the ages.
Seventy or eighty years ago, Qian was already the master of a divine kingdom. He first manifested a divine miracle in the Myriad Domains, entering the Void Heaven Domain of the myriad realms from the lower realms through an unknown channel. He ascended the Void Heaven Pagoda in Huatian City, bravely charging through one hundred floors with astonishing prowess, confronting the strongest Pagoda Master, and finally reaching the summit, breaking a record that had remained unbroken for countless years.
This event startled the myriad realms and even drew the attention of supreme, peerless Great Powers who traveled from afar just to catch a glimpse of this mysterious Qian.
He also once battled the Sun God, one of the contemporary Immortal True Kings, in the mysterious realm above the one-hundredth floor of the Void Heaven Pagoda, ending in a draw. It was then that he revealed his identity as hailing from the lower realms.
He then disappeared for several decades, only to re-emerge decades later, breaking the restrictions of the Myriad Domains, ascending from the lower realms, and embarking on a series of glorious deeds.
He fished for the dragon sturgeon, an exotic True Dragon; slew elders of Immortal Sacred Lands; entered the Myriad Realms Academy where countless prodigies from the Myriad Domains gathered; clashed directly and indirectly with the Primordial Demon God; as a Demi-Saint, slew Saints and even Saint Lords; confronted Immortal True Kings...
Each of these deeds could be recounted casually, every single one absolutely worthy of being called a legendary feat in the myriad realms. Yet on Qian, they were commonplace.
Because he himself was a legendary figure of his generation, filled with legend. He even broke the restraint of the ninth heaven that no one had succeeded in since the Mythical Era, becoming the first possessor of the Tenth Heaven after the Mythical Era, perfect and complete, called the true Supreme One, and also hailed as the inheritor of the Myriad Domains' number one forbidden legacy.
Although he ultimately perished helplessly due to a world-shaking major event, even after so many years, there are still those who remember that a prodigy like him emerged decades ago. Even if he shone brilliantly for only a brief period like a meteor before fading into obscurity, it is undeniable that he has been recorded in history.
Countless people have secretly sighed, thinking that if he had continued to grow, the position of Human Sovereign might have been his, and he even had a great chance of reversing fate to become an emperor.
What a pity for a generation's peerless prodigy.
Wang Shan stared blankly at the clear-eyed, handsome youth with a gentle smile before him. Could he be the forbidden Supreme One from the past, Qian?
Ye Chen gave a helpless smile. "Those were just past glories. Although I was fortunate enough to escape calamity and reincarnate, I paid a great price, far inferior to before. To this day, I haven't even achieved a Saint Body and am still restrained within the ninth heaven realm, unable to break through. How can I speak of past glories?"
His helpless words had already admitted that he was the forbidden Supreme One Qian from the past. Wang Shan's eyes widened; no matter what, he never expected the clear-eyed youth before him to be the legendary mythical figure. Everything came too suddenly.
If this were to spread, it would surely startle the myriad realms, attract the attention of countless people, and even stir up huge waves.
This was beyond doubt because Qian indeed had such power. He was a forbidden figure filled with legend in his time.
Wang Ming had long since completely blocked the void of the ancient hall, preventing others from knowing the information here. Now, with a solemn expression, he said, "Shan'er, you should understand the importance of your Martial Uncle's identity. It must absolutely not be known by others, otherwise he will face great danger. Many people will go to great lengths to kill your Martial Uncle, including some supreme Sacred Lands."
Wang Shan's expression changed. He had vaguely heard that this Martial Uncle's death back then was largely due to those few supreme Sacred Lands. They mobilized great force and even paid a heavy price because of him, losing several Heavenly King Invincibles, with countless other experts dead or injured, suffering heavy losses, blood flowing for miles.
If news of him being alive spread, as the reincarnated Ye Chen, he would inevitably encounter extreme crisis and be targeted. Those supreme experts would not allow him to grow up again.
His existence was entangled with too many forces, intricate and extremely complex.
Wang Shan looked at Ye Chen with awe, then said seriously, "Master, rest assured. Your disciple will not casually speak and let others know that Martial Uncle Qian Yue is alive."
Only then did Wang Ming's expression ease slightly as he nodded. Qian Yue had managed to survive and reincarnate with great difficulty; he was very important to them and must absolutely not come to harm. They needed to protect him to the end, at least until he reached his previous life's level, where he would fear nothing.
"Qian Yue, you have reincarnated now, but your cultivation is far inferior to before. If you need anything during this time, just speak up. Whether it's me, the Heavenly Gate, or other old friends, we will all do our best to help. Don't feel embarrassed. Your being alive is very important; you must not come to harm."
After a pause, Wang Ming added, "Now, each of us has fully grown up. Many have become overlords in their own right, like me, like the War King, like the Peacock King and others, each possessing extraordinary strength and influence. We can completely fear many people. With our help, Ye Chen's growth in this life will also become much more relaxed."
"I'm sorry. Reincarnating only to have you protect me," Ye Chen said apologetically.
Wang Ming shook his head. "What's this? Moreover, I believe you will eventually recover your Saint Body immortal form. Restoring your previous life is just a matter of time."
Towards Ye Chen, Wang Ming had always maintained great confidence because he had even managed to reincarnate from such a certain-death calamity. Now awakened in this life, what couldn't he achieve?
"This path is filled with too many difficulties," Ye Chen sighed lightly. Not to mention that maximizing the recovery of his Saint Body bloodline required ten drops of kingly blood, and breaking the restriction of the ninth heaven peak—so far, he only had a slight clue. His previous life's success was merely a stroke of luck, but now it was giving him a headache.
"Don't worry. Whatever you need, we will help you," Wang Ming said. "Our strength is your strength."
Ye Chen hummed in agreement. This path was filled with difficulties, but it was also an invincible path, peerless in the world.
Once recovered, he believed he could roam freely across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
"Then, Daddy, do you know who I am?" Chen Ruo suddenly gave a sly smile, full of playful innocence.
Ye Chen gently pinched the girl's crystal-clear, pretty, and perky nose, chuckling, "You're Ya Ya, aren't you?"
