At this moment, Yandi and Ye Yunfei had already entered the depths of the sky above the Feixian Continent.
“Two hours are nearly up. Once the time comes, the energy you borrowed will dissipate. However, I believe that in the future, you will undoubtedly rely on your own talent to truly step into the realm of a Heavenly Emperor.”
Yandi said to Ye Yunfei.
“Many thanks for your encouragement, senior,” Ye Yunfei replied.
“I have already used a secret technique to erase all traces you left during the battle, so you don't need to worry about anyone tracking you down through divination. However, I have a premonition that the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds will not be peaceful in the days to come. So you must be careful. Live well, and strive to achieve the emperor realm early. In the future, you may become a powerful general capable of standing alone for our Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds.
Also, I know you want very much to know about the World-Destroying War. But for now, it's better that you don't know some things, lest you get entangled in their karma too early. When you reach that stage eventually, you will find out in due time.”
Yandi looked at Ye Yunfei and spoke.
“Understood. Please rest assured, senior. I've got it,” Ye Yunfei nodded.
“This time, you helped me deal with Guyin Valley. I'll give you a gift. I see your fleshly body is sturdy; you've clearly put a lot of effort into body tempering. I have a body tempering technique called the Grand Supreme Primordial Circuit Body Tempering Chapter. It's the very technique I displayed earlier in the fight.
This method of tempering the body is different from those you've cultivated before, which relied on integrating various heavenly treasures into your flesh to increase its quality and power. The Grand Supreme Primordial Circuit Body Tempering Chapter mainly focuses on opening up the various secret realms within the human body, excavating its latent potential, and developing the body's own innate treasures to achieve the goal of body tempering.
I obtained this body tempering art by chance long ago from an ancient cultivation cave. If you're interested, you can spend some time cultivating it.”
Yandi said, reaching out a finger to send a stream of Soul Power information into Ye Yunfei's soul sea.
“Thank you, senior, for imparting this technique!” Ye Yunfei couldn't help but rejoice.
During the fight earlier, Yandi had executed this profound body tempering technique, unleashing terrifying energy and summoning five deities from within his body to battle together. Although Ye Yunfei had collected many body tempering techniques in his previous life, he didn't have a single one of this type. He hadn't expected Yandi to gift it to him now.
“Alright, I must take my leave,” Yandi said.
“Senior, where are you going?” Ye Yunfei asked.
“This Clone of mine is unstable. I must seize the time to handle several matters,” Yandi replied.
“Senior, where is your true body?” Ye Yunfei couldn't help asking again.
“I don't know,” Yandi was momentarily stunned, then answered with a bitter smile.
“Senior, I would also like to ask, did you participate in the World-Destroying War back then?” Ye Yunfei inquired once more.
“Yes,” Yandi replied after hearing Ye Yunfei's question, his gaze shifting to look towards the distant reaches of space and time before he slowly nodded.
“So it is indeed the case!” Ye Yunfei thought inwardly.
“The Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds are going to be thrown into chaos once more.
You must remember, in such times of turmoil, the most important thing is to diligently cultivate and increase your own strength.
Alright, I'm leaving now.
I hope we will have another chance to meet in the future.”
Yandi said to Ye Yunfei, then turned and took a step, instantly traversing space to depart.
“Two hours is finally up.”
Ye Yunfei suddenly felt the energy within his body rapidly draining away. He knew that the energy he had forcibly borrowed was about to dissipate, and he couldn't help but give a wry smile.
“I should return to Tianxiong Domain first.”
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, turned, and took a step, descending in the direction of Tianxiong Domain.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just as Ye Yunfei was heading back to Tianxiong Domain, three beings with terrifying auras pierced through space and entered the Feixian Continent. They arrived right before Guyin Valley in just one step.
They were the Three Great Heavenly Emperors—Tianluo, Jinwu, and You Yue!
“Sure enough, Guyin Valley has already been pacified,” Jinwu said as he looked into Guyin Valley.
“I'll do some divination,” Tianluo said.
He stepped into Guyin Valley, hovered mid-air, and began his divinations.
He saw his hands constantly forming one magical seal after another. Runes containing laws of time and space continuously materialized and seeped into the surrounding space.
Moments later...
Moving scenes began to appear one after another.
The scenes showed several beings engaged in a terrifying great battle.
Those scenes were precisely of Ye Yunfei and Yandi joining forces to charge into Guyin Valley and then slaying the Moony Yin Crone and the Black Wolf Deity.
“Indeed, those occupying Guyin Valley were dark beings!”
Soon, Tianluo vaguely saw the figures of the Moony Yin Crone and the Black Wolf Deity and sensed the sinister auras they released, frowning as he spoke.
“Let's see who the other two were,” You Yue remarked from the side.
Next, Tianluo began to divine the auras of the opposing side in the battle, Yandi and Ye Yunfei.
However, because both Yandi and Ye Yunfei had used profound veiling and masking secret techniques during the battle, even after exhausting all his abilities, Tianluo was still unable to see their appearances clearly or capture the aura of their Soul Bodies.
“I cannot divine them. They used a powerful secret technique that can block my divination,” Tianluo finally ceased his divination.
“They can even block *your* divination? Could they truly be experts at the Heavenly Emperor level?” Jinwu and You Yue were both very surprised.
“Judging from the residual energy left by both sides’ combat, they are not true Heavenly Emperors.
Their strength is merely approaching that of a Heavenly Emperor.”
Tianluo shook his head.
“Yes, the imperial-level energy they exhibited wasn't truly flawless and complete; it had defects.”
Jinwu and You Yue also sensed the residual battle energies in Guyin Valley for themselves and nodded in agreement.
“Let's go. We'll find people from this continent to learn about the situation,” Tianluo said after thinking.
The three Heavenly Emperors then walked out of Guyin Valley.
They adopted the simplest method: directly searching the souls of a few beings who were still lingering near Guyin Valley.
“Yandi!
So one of them was an ancient Yandi!”
All three Heavenly Emperors were a bit taken aback.
They were the Heavenly Emperors of this era, the strongest of this time.
The Heavenly Emperors of ancient times had long since vanished for various reasons.
They hadn't expected an ancient Heavenly Emperor to suddenly appear now.
“It was just a Clone,” Tianluo said.
“Then, which ancient Heavenly Emperor was the other one?” You Yue asked with a frown.
Following that, the three Heavenly Emperors conducted an investigation, including returning to Guyin Valley to perform divinations again. However, they still could not determine the identity of the other Heavenly Emperor.
Naturally, the actions of these three Heavenly Emperors were carried out with great secrecy. They did not publicly reveal their identities.
Therefore, no one knew that the three Great Heavenly Emperors of the current era had actually come to the Feixian Continent to investigate the pacification of Guyin Valley.
Aside from the Three Great Heavenly Emperors, many other experts from other worlds also flocked to the Feixian Continent to investigate the matter of Guyin Valley.
The strength of these experts was far inferior to the Three Great Heavenly Emperors', so they could find out even less.
At the same time.
Somewhere within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, within a hidden space shrouded in billowing, gloomy mist, a creature whose entire body was as black as ink sat cross-legged.
This pitch-black being was as motionless as a stone statue. The dust of time covered its form as if it had not moved for a thousand years.
“Hmm… The Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds have been peacefully developing for so many years. It's about time for another cleansing.
It's just that the quality of living beings in the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds this era is a bit low.
There are only three Heavenly Emperors in total.
Even in that most unique Small World, the number of high-quality beings is scarce.
It seems necessary to appropriately raise the level of the Heaven and Earth grand laws of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, to allow the beings' overall strength to be upgraded one level. Then, we can launch the Great Cleansing. Only then will the harvest be bountiful.”
Suddenly, the being sensed something, slowly opened its eyes, gazed towards the space and time of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, and uttered these words unhurriedly.
