Chapter 12499 The Path to Desperation
Ye Chen unleashed his multiple divine powers to their fullest extent, activating the Eye of Desperate Death. An astonishing scene unfolded: the outer world, with its endless apocalyptic calamities and patches of scarlet lightning, was now being impacted by a powerful aura of death.
Wherever Ye Chen's gaze fell, the heavens and earth seemed to perish, and the apocalyptic scene of the outer world rapidly crumbled.
In an instant, the sky returned to its clear state, but the azure sky, upon reaching Ye Chen's gaze, instantly collapsed and shattered, turning into a blackened and silent void of chaos.
This is the terror of the Death Demon Eye; in an instant, it caused the heavens and earth to die.
It could even, in its extreme form, cause this world to be completely annihilated, turning into endless darkness.
But the price was that Ye Chen's eyes were filled with blood and tears. He felt a stinging pain in his eyes, his vision was blurred, and he felt as if he was going blind.
Under the eruption of multiple dark divine powers, the body was also tormented by the flames of tribulation, as if it had fallen into an abyss of suffering, suffering endlessly! Boundless bitterness surged, erupted, churned, and tormented the entire body from every corner of it.
"You wretched woman!"
"I was killed by you!"
Ye Chen was completely enraged and slapped Xi Yao, knocking her to the ground.
He looked towards the horizon, his eyes blurred with blood and tears, but he could still see that the Green-Robed Immortal and "Wang" had already left the Rainbow Rain Realm.
It will be difficult for him to catch up.
"Brother Ye Chen, how are you?"
Su Yunli hurriedly flew over and supported Ye Chen. Seeing the blood and tears streaming from Ye Chen's eyes, she was terrified and extremely worried.
Just now, Ye Chen activated the Eye of Despair, which instantly destroyed the atmosphere of the outer world. This eye of demons is too terrifying. But judging from the blood flowing from Ye Chen's eyes, the side effects are obviously also huge. Su Yunli was only worried.
"Ho..."
Ye Chen gasped for breath, feeling dizzy and unable to hold on any longer, collapsing onto Su Yunli's body.
"Brother Ye Chen!"
Su Yunli shouted, worried that something might happen to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen fell into a coma. In his dazed state, he felt as if he had been transported to a purgatory battlefield that did not belong to the other side of the starry sky. The calamities of the apocalypse and the riots of darkness and scarlet were constantly impacting him, but there was always a ray of light protecting him.
This ray of light is as loving and great as a father.
“My child, you have inherited my spirit, my heart, and I allow you to inherit everything I have.”
"Go, and if you are capable, go and inherit my hair, my arms, and my eyes."
"Once you possess my body, you will destroy the abyss and wipe out the darkness."
"A new world of eternal light will be built in our hands, and you will eventually become light and merge with me."
……
In his hazy state, Ye Chen seemed to hear someone speaking, as if they were giving him instructions, or perhaps a father expressing his expectations for his son.
But deep down, he harbored a strange rebellious spirit and did not want to follow his so-called father's arrangements.
He struggled violently and woke up.
"Brother Ye Chen!"
When Ye Chen woke up, he found himself lying on a large, gilded bed. Su Yunli was sitting by the bed. When she saw that he was awake, she cried out with great joy and rushed into his arms, almost crying with excitement.
"Where am I...?"
Ye Chen looked around and saw that the place where he was lying was a magnificent palace. Su Yunli's attire was no longer the cool and breezy one she used to be. Instead, she was wearing a golden robe like an emperor's, with a phoenix totem imprinted on it, exuding a magnificent aura.
"This is the Rainbow Rain Temple, my bedroom."
“Brother, you’ve been unconscious for seven days. In these seven days, I’ve taken over the Rainbow Rain Temple. I’m now the Temple Master of the Rainbow Rain Temple!”
Su Yunli puffed out her chest, looking rather smug and proud.
During those seven days, she was not idle; instead, she accomplished many important things and even took direct control of the entire Rainbow Rain Temple.
From then on, the master of the Rainbow Rain Temple in the Four Heavenly Gates was no longer the Green-Robed Immortal, but Su Yunli.
"Have I been in a coma for seven days?"
Ye Chen's mind was still a little hazy, and many memories seemed to be shrouded in mist. In his daze, he seemed to recall that in his previous unconscious dream, someone seemed to be talking to him.
But he couldn't remember who was speaking or what they said.
Fortunately, he woke up and recovered.
In the great battle seven days ago against the Longevity Emperor, Ye Chen first used the Chaos Technique, then combined his swords with Su Yunli, and finally unleashed multiple divine powers and activated the Death-Defying Demon Eye. He was practically risking his life, which resulted in huge consumption and a huge price to pay.
At that time, his body was almost overwhelmed by the flames and pain, but after sleeping for seven days, his body has fully recovered.
Ye Chen could see into Su Yunli's heart; her heart was completely open to him.
During these seven days, Su Yunli also mobilized a large number of rare and precious herbs to nourish Ye Chen's body.
Of course, Ye Chen's ability to fully recover in such a short time of seven days also demonstrates his strong physical foundation.
"Your clothes..."
Ye Chen looked at Su Yunli in her golden phoenix imperial robe and felt a little uncomfortable. The clothes didn't suit her. She had the appearance of a pure young girl, and wearing such a luxurious and dignified outfit looked somewhat out of place.
"Don't you like it, brother? Then I'll take it off."
As Su Yunli spoke, she decisively took off her imperial robe, leaving only a bodice.
"Uh... never mind, you should just put it on."
Ye Chen raised his hand to stop him, somewhat helplessly.
Su Yunli chuckled, but didn't put it on; she just held Ye Chen's hand.
Ye Chen paused, then said seriously, "Let's get back to business. How is the Eternal Life Emperor?"
Su Yunli also put away her smile and said, "The demon god sealed in the Devouring Forbidden Land ran away after devouring the Longevity Emperor. Li Chunsheng went to hunt it down. The information I found in the past seven days is that they all ran to the Reverse World Demon Ruins."
The Li Chunsheng she was referring to was none other than the Green Robe Immortal.
"Did they run off to the Demon Ruins of Reversal?"
Ye Chen's eyes flickered, somewhat surprised.
The demon god named "Wang" actually escaped into the Reverse World Demon Ruins. Was he attracted there by the aura of the Fragment of Frenzied Devouring?
Many questions suddenly arose in his mind.
"The Reverse World Demon Ruins is a very dangerous place. It gathers the apocalyptic aura of the outer world, hence the name 'Reverse World.' If Li Chunsheng and that demon god ran in, they would probably die and be left with no trace."
When Su Yunli mentioned the Reverse World Demon Ruins, her tone was quite cautious and respectful, showing no sign of underestimating it.
That place is extremely dangerous, and it's very special on the other side of the starry sky.
Beyond the starry sky lies an independent world, like a bright pearl. Beyond this pearl lies boundless chaos, madness, violence, and crimson, filled with rampant natural disasters.
That is the outer realm, the conflict between the beginning and the abyss, which has turned the outer heavens into hell.
Beyond the starry sky, there is a world barrier that can block natural disasters and chaos from outside the world. However, nothing is absolute, and some of the chaotic aura of natural disasters from outside the world will still seep into the other side of the starry sky.
The world beyond the starry sky automatically rejects this external force, but it cannot expel it; it can only accumulate in a certain place.
The chaos of the outside world accumulated, giving birth to the Demon Ruins of Rebellion.
"If the Green-Robed Immortal and that Demon God are dead, wouldn't that mean the divine authority of the Eternal Emperor will also perish?"
Ye Chen frowned slightly, feeling a little regretful.
"I think so," Su Yunli said.
"No, not yet. I can sense that the Green-Robed Immortal, the Demon God, and the Longevity Emperor are all still alive. Their fate has not yet run out."
Ye Chen's eyes shone brightly, his insight into cause and effect allowing him to glimpse the fate of the Green-Robed True Man and the others, realizing that their time for destruction and oblivion had not yet come.
They're all still alive!
Su Yunli said, "Well, they're still alive now, but it won't be long before they're all dead, right? After all, once they step into the Reverse World Demon Ruins, it'll be difficult to get out."
The Reverse World Demon Ruins is an incredibly terrifying place. Even a powerful emperor like the Heavenly Emperor would perish after entering the Reverse World Demon Ruins, leaving only his remnant soul to escape.
The Green-Robed Immortal and the demon god named "Wang" ran into the Reverse World Demon Ruins, and it was naturally extremely difficult for them to come out alive.
"Brother, you don't mean to go to the Demon Ruins of Reversal, do you?"
"Don't you dare try to get yourself killed!"
Su Yunli seemed to sense something and panicked, gripping Ye Chen's hand tightly.
Ye Chen said, "It's alright, I'll be careful."
He thought that the Demon Ruins of Reversal was the location of the Fragments of Frenzied Devouring, and he would have to go there sooner or later. Now was the perfect time to go, and he could also take the opportunity to resolve the karmic ties between the Green-Robed True Man and the Eternal Emperor.
Although the Demon Ruins of Reversal is dangerous, Ye Chen has considerable confidence in his own strength.
Su Yunli shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, no, that place is too dangerous, brother. The Reverse World Demon Ruins is filled with the chaos of the outer world, and that kind of chaos can greatly suppress divinity."
"In other words, you may not be able to use the many divine powers you wield in the Reverse World Demon Ruins."
"In that case, it would be dangerous for you, who is only at the Burning Lamp Realm, to face all the terrors of the Reverse World Demon Ruins."
"Suppress divinity?" Ye Chen pondered for a moment. "Even without divine authority, I have other trump cards. Yun Li, you don't need to worry too much."
Aside from divine authority, Ye Chen also possesses trump cards such as the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star, the Eternal Wall, the Starry Sky Dao Book, and the Heavenly Emperor Dragon Emperor Body. Moreover, he also masters the wondrous methods of the Yin-Yang Great Dao, such as the Heavenly Word Technique, the Mutual Word Technique, and the Chaotic Word Technique.
The laws of that Reverse World Demon Ruins may suppress divinity, but they can never suppress the Yin-Yang Dao itself.
But Su Yunli still looked worried and said, "Brother, in short, you can't take risks easily. If you really have to go, well, you should talk to Emperor Blood Phoenix first and ask him to take care of you."
Ye Chen was taken aback and said, "Blood Phoenix Emperor?"
Su Yunli said, "Yes, that guy wants your Sacred Words Book. These past few days you've been unconscious, and he sensed that your fate has changed, so he came down here specifically."
"However, since I control the Rainbow Rain Realm, he wouldn't dare to act recklessly."
“I made a deal with him, giving him many rare and precious materials in exchange for his help in reviving Xue Ci.”
Ye Chen asked, "Has Miss Yan been resurrected?"
Su Yunli said, "Well, Xueci is also Qingsi Fairy, who is the junior sister of Blood Phoenix Emperor. He wouldn't just stand by and watch her die."
"I mobilized the earth vein spiritual power of the Spring Rain family and joined forces with the Blood Phoenix Emperor to finally revive that child."
"But the earth veins of the Spring Rain family are completely depleted."
"Sigh, Xueci's identity is too special. She is also the Fairy of Green Silk. It will take a lot of effort to revive her."
When Yan Xueci died, Emperor Xuehuang was quite grieved, but even with his abilities, he was unable to revive her.
Because Yan Xueci is also the Fairy of Green Silk, and the Green Silk Divine Authority is one of the seven great divine authorities of the Origin of Light, it is extremely difficult to revive it.
Now, Su Yunli has exhausted the spiritual power of the Spring Rain Clan's earth veins and joined forces with the Blood Phoenix Emperor to finally revive Yan Xueci, which can be described as a huge price to pay.
Upon hearing that Yan Xueci had been resurrected, Ye Chen said, "It's good that Miss Yan has been resurrected." Then, a thought struck him, and he asked, "Has the Azure Silk Divine Authority also been revived?"
Yan Xueci's life or death is important, but the survival or extinction of the Qingsi Divine Authority is even more important.
Because if the Azure Silk Divine Authority were to perish, one of the seven fundamental laws of light would be extinguished completely. With the decline of light, darkness would rage, and the already unbalanced situation would collapse further.
Su Yunli said, "When we fought against the Skeleton Ancestor, the divine power of the Azure Silk Fairy was completely exhausted. Now only the laws remain. It is already extremely lucky that the laws can remain intact. Don't even think about a complete recovery."
As she spoke, Su Yunli took out a Dao Crystal. The Dao Crystal was dim, with some light runes carved on it, and said:
"This is the divine power crystal of the Azure Silk Fairy, but its energy has been completely depleted. Only the original laws remain. To restore the divine power, it is necessary to find a mother nest and re-incubate and nurture it."
"Well, Xueci said that she just wants to live a peaceful life and doesn't want to be the Green Silk Fairy anymore. In other words, she doesn't want to be the mother nest anymore. We need to find a new mother nest and start incubating and nurturing divine power again."
The divine authority of the Green Silk Fairy is extremely important, as it concerns the fundamental laws of light, and naturally, it cannot be abandoned.
However, Yan Xueci has already chosen to withdraw. Now, the problem facing Ye Chen and Su Yunli is to find a new mother nest to incubate the divine power.
This situation is similar to the incubation of the goddess of wishes, which also requires a mother nest.
Ye Chen originally entrusted the divine power of the Goddess of Wishes to Ren Tiannv for incubation, allowing Ren Tiannv to serve as the mother nest.
Now, to whom should the divine authority of the Green Silk Fairy be entrusted?
Who will be the mother nest?
The images of Xia Ruoxue, Wei Ying, and others flashed through Ye Chen's mind. After a moment's thought, he said, "I'll do it. I'll inherit the Azure Silk Divine Authority and act as the Mother Nest."
Su Yunli was taken aback and said, "Brother, are you here to act as the mother nest?"
“This… hatching the Azure Silk Divine Authority requires a huge amount of energy from the mother body. Your cultivation is only at the peak of the fourth level of the Burning Lamp Realm. If you were to act as the mother nest, I'm afraid you would be drained dry by the Divine Authority embryo.”
Ye Chen looked at the dim Dao Crystal in Su Yunli's hand and said, "It's alright, I can afford to support it."
He thought that the Azure Silk Divine Authority was extremely important, as it was one of the seven great primordial divine authorities of light. Even if it cost some money to nurture and incubate it, it would be worth it.
After all, Ye Chen had already collected the divine authority of the Skeleton Ancestor and the divine authority of the Heart Celestial Venerable, and the fusion was going very well. With the divine authority of the Azure Silk Fairy right in front of him, there was really no reason for him to miss it.
Su Yunli also knew that if the Azure Silk Divine Authority could be successfully hatched, it would be of immense benefit to Ye Chen. She nodded and handed the dim Dao Crystal in her hand to Ye Chen, saying:
"Okay, brother, here you go."
"I'll draw some more resources from the Rainbow Rain Temple's treasury later and give them to you to help incubate divine authority."
Seeing that Su Yunli was thinking of him in every way, Ye Chen felt a warmth in his heart and said, "Thank you, Yunli."
Su Yunli chuckled and said, "No need to thank me. We are Daoist partners, so it is only right that we help each other."
Her clear and pure eyes gazed tenderly at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's heart fluttered slightly, so he gently kissed her lips and said, "It's a pity that you are beyond goddesses. Your divinity is very strong, but I am not worthy of you. We cannot unite as yin and yang."
Ever since Su Yunli manifested a divinity surpassing that of a goddess, Ye Chen knew that the two were of yin strength and yang weakness, and that it was not yet time for them to unite. If they forced themselves together, Ye Chen would be swallowed up by the yin energy.
Su Yunli smiled and said, "It's alright, it will be fine once my brother's cultivation level is higher."
"Now, our Rainbow Rain Temple has no more grudges with your Nine Heavens Academy and Nine Heavens Family."
"I will take charge of the Rainbow Rain Temple, and from now on we will be allies like husband and wife."
"Well, it's a pity. Of the four great families in the Rainbow Rain Realm, the Spring Rain Family has fallen into obscurity, the Autumn Darkness Family is not convinced by me, the Summer Solstice Family says it will remain neutral, and only the Frosty Winter Family supports me."
"So, we don't actually have many resources at our disposal right now, but I will try my best to win over the Xia Zhi family."
"As for the rebellious Qiu Ming family, hmph, once my cultivation is stronger, I will wipe them all out!"
When the Qiu Ming family was mentioned, Su Yunli was very unhappy and even had fierce thoughts.
Ye Chen knew that many things must have happened during the seven days he was unconscious, and Su Yunli had also endured a lot of pressure.
"Has the Qiu Ming family rebelled?" Ye Chen asked.
Su Yunli said, "Yes, that's right. They have the Golden Feather Emperor backing them up, and they don't take me, the new Palace Master, seriously at all."
"But brother, don't worry, I'll handle it."
"Well, if you really want to go to the Reverse World Demon Ruins, you should talk to the Blood Phoenix Emperor first. He is also in the Rainbow Rain Temple."
"Moreover, he also has influence in the Reverse World Demon Ruins."
Ye Chen asked curiously, "Does the Blood Phoenix Emperor have influence in the Reverse World Demon Ruins?"
Su Yunli said, "Yes, but he himself said that compared with the harsh natural disaster environment of the Reverse World Demon Ruins, his little power is like a lone boat in the vast ocean, very insignificant."
"But no matter what, having some influence means having some support, which is better than having no support at all."
“The Qiu Ming family sent a lot of people to the Reverse World Demon Ruins these past few days, but they all died. That place is extremely dangerous.”
Ye Chen said, "The Qiu Ming family wants to seize the Berserker Fragment?"
Su Yunli said, "Of course they want to. Now that I am in charge of the Rainbow Rain Temple, they would only be able to rebel, usurp the throne, and kill me if they could obtain the Berserker Fragment."
"Moreover, the Eternal Emperor was also inside, and they also wanted to seize the Eternal Emperor's soul authority."
Ye Chen was filled with a thousand thoughts. He never expected that so many things had happened during the days he was unconscious.
Su Yunli said, "Brother, I also received intelligence that the Divine Weapon Manor has sent people to the Reverse World Demon Ruins. It seems that even the Supreme Elder, Hundred Refinement Divine Lord, has personally gone out. I guess he also wants to seize the Mad Devouring Fragment."
"If you really want to go to that place, you'd better talk to the Blood Phoenix Emperor first and try to get his support."
"Also, here's a mirror for you."
As they were talking, Su Yunli took out another bronze mirror and handed it to Ye Chen.
The bronze mirror was dim, but Ye Chen recognized it as the Rain Curtain Mirror, a divine artifact of the Spring Rain family and Rain Curtain Mountain.
"The rain curtain reflects the world?"
