Primordial Star Scripture

"The final step!"

"Once I have cultivated the External Skills of the Five Great Divine Arts to their peak power, I can directly enter the fourth volume of the Primordial Star Scripture and advance into the Heavenly Saint Realm!"

Ye Chen felt the power of the Five Great Divine Arts within his body.

The Five Great Divine Arts were the Gold-Element Divine Art "Golden Light Divine Slash," the Wood-Element Divine Art "Wood Emperor Stacking Skill," the Water-Element Divine Art "Heavenly Origin Divine Water," the Fire-Element Divine Art "Heaven-Devouring True Fire," and the Earth-Element Divine Art "Earth Returning to Origin Art."

The power of these Five Great Divine Arts was related to the cultivation of the "Taiyuan Divine Pill" with Internal Skills.

In recent days, Ye Chen made a great breakthrough with the Taiyuan Divine Pill in the Law Sea of his cultivation site, not only cultivating from four hundred and five Five Apertures Rotating Pills to nine hundred and ninety-nine but also successfully uniting all these rotating pills into the "Taiyuan Divine Pill"!

The Taiyuan Divine Pill's aid to the Five Great Divine Arts had almost reached its limit.

Moreover, the power of the Five Great Divine Arts was also related to the comprehension of Laws, and the deeper the comprehension, the stronger the Five Great Divine Arts became.

During this time, Ye Chen absorbed no less than a thousand strands of Law Spirit Thunder. Under the harmony of the "Void Sky Quintessence Fruit," his comprehension of the laws had almost reached the level of Great Perfection, similarly enhancing the power of the Five Great Divine Arts immensely.

Another way to increase the power of the Five Great Divine Arts was to devour and refine the Five Great Secret Treasures associated with the elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, of which Ye Chen had absorbed a considerable amount.

Now, with various factors combined, Ye Chen's Five Great Divine Arts were no longer what they once were.

At this moment, the power of Ye Chen's Five Great Divine Arts had reached ninety percent of their potential, and with just these Five Great Divine Arts, Ye Chen could absolutely annihilate any being in the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm.

However, he was still one step away from the perfect level of ten percent.

He was just missing that last bit of opportunity.

"Seven more days, continue to absorb Law Spirit Thunder!"

Ye Chen looked towards the vast expanse of Law Spirit Thunder in the void. Although he felt that the Law Spirit Thunder had helped him as much as it could, to take the final step, his opportunity might not lie within the Law Sea of the Qianye Platform.

Nevertheless, Ye Chen would certainly not miss this final phase of cultivation.

In the last seven days, with even stronger True Qi Techniques, Ye Chen continued to absorb Law Spirit Thunder, familiarizing himself with his newly enhanced True Qi Techniques while resisting the Law Spirit Thunder.

Days passed by, one after the other.

In these final seven days, each day was a new test for everyone who remained.

Because the closer to the end, the more terrifying and formidable the Law Spirit Thunder between heaven and earth became. Even the Law Spirit Thunder that emerged from the Law Sea and the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Artifact "Green Spirit Bottle" became increasingly dense.

In the midst of the intensifying challenges, the remaining few were eliminated one after another.

By the last three days, in the entire Law Sea, only Ye Chen, the Little Provincial Princess, Tian Li, Meng Qi, Zhao Xin, and Hu Lin remained.

These six, except for Ye Chen, were all descendants of Great Powerholders.

Seeing Ye Chen persist in cultivating within the Law Sea alongside these six made all the Martial Artists from the lower realm and the youth from the Divine Kingdoms who had been eliminated admire Ye Chen once again.

By the last day, even Tian Li, Zhao Xin, Meng Qi, and Hu Lin could only rely on treasures to withstand the Law Spirit Thunder.

Had they not insisted on accompanying the Little Provincial Princess until the end of the cultivation, they would have been ready to give up the Law Sea.

Because they, too, had reached their greatest gains in the Law Sea.

Originally at the later stages of the Rotating Pill Realm, all of them had reached the edge of the Heavenly Saint Realm due to the absorption of the laws. They were suppressing their breakthrough, planning to return to their elders before advancing to the Heavenly Saint Realm.

Because under those circumstances, with their elders' help—all four Divine Venerables, the Great Generals—their gains would be even greater.

The only ones continuing the real cultivation were Ye Chen and the Little Provincial Princess.

Ye Chen, too, had reached the limit of his gains this time. He continued to cultivate, trying to find the last step to enhance the power of the Five Great Divine Arts.

Meanwhile, the Little Provincial Princess was genuinely in the midst of cultivation.

She had already broken through from the initial to the middle stage of the Rotating Pill Realm, having assimilated innumerable amounts of Law forces and pathways. She was always waiting for an opportunity to evolve from the middle to the later stage of the Rotating Pill Realm.

In the final day, with not much time left, the Little Provincial Princess, who had already grasped the nine great Void Heaven laws such as ice, lightning, electricity, and fire to near Great Perfection, finally began her assault on the later stage of the Rotating Pill Realm.

In the end, she also successfully broke through to the later stage!

One month's time, breaking through from the initial to the later stage of the Rotating Pill Realm, was simply inconceivable!

However, in this second place for True Qi cultivation in the Minor Pole Sky, the "Law Sea of Qianye Platform," with the assistance of countless treasures and under the extensive preparations made by the East Province King for the Little Provincial Princess, she achieved this!

Because she was the East Province King's little daughter.

Her father was a being even more powerful than the Divine Venerables!

When the one-month period came to an end, the six who persisted in the Law Sea, including Ye Chen and the Little Provincial Princess, were all teleported back to the shore of the Law Sea.

"Brother Ye Chen, you really did cultivate to the later stage of the Rotating Pill!" As soon as she reached the shore, the Little Provincial Princess Fang Luo looked towards Ye Chen.

During cultivation, she had observed Ye Chen, who wasn't far from her. It was Ye Chen's determined gaze, in the face of countless Law Spirit Thunder, that kept the very young Little Provincial Princess from giving up whenever she nearly did so.

Therefore, in her heart, the Little Provincial Princess was truly grateful to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen too sensed the Little Provincial Princess's aura, and when he saw that she had progressed from the initial to the later stage of the Rotating Pill Realm, he was genuinely astounded.

The Little Provincial Princess was still a twelve-year-old little girl!

```

He had actually cultivated up to the late stage of Rotating Pill.

Placed in the Lower Realm, this would be considered an inconceivable feat!

While Ye Chen and the Little Provincial Princess were conversing, Lan Xi God King also smiled and addressed everyone, "Alright, the opportunity for cultivation at the second location, regardless of how many days you've trained or how great your gains, has also come to an end."

"Now, you must begin preparations to enter the examination and competition of the second location!"

"Only by passing the examination and competition of the second location will you have a new chance to advance to the third cultivation site to cultivate your Divine Soul techniques!"

The first site was for cultivating Physical Skills; the second site, True Qi Techniques; and the third site would be related to Divine Soul techniques pertaining to the three main signs of life.

Upon hearing Lan Xi God King's announcement of the second location's examination and competition, everyone turned their gaze to the Extreme Heaven Spirit List suspended in the void, particularly at the names at the top: Ye Chen in first place and the Little Provincial Princess in second.

Everyone knew that the chance to change the rankings on the Extreme Heaven Spirit List had arrived once more.

...

Just as Ye Chen made his way through the first cultivation site and the first examination, and after a month of training in the second cultivation site,

Far within the Minor Spirit Realm's Lower Realm on the thirty-third continent, in the Barbaric Wilderness Continent,

At the same time Ye Chen entered the second cultivation site, the Five Tribulations True God of the Flying Spirit Clan, Chixiao True God, had officially commenced the unification of the entire Chaotic Sea Area using the power of the Sea God Palace, making preparations for the invasion of the thirteen countries of the Southern Territory.

A month had passed, and the situation in the entire Chaotic Sea Area had drastically changed.

Tens of thousands of miles of the Chaotic Sea, countless sea areas, countless forces — under the overwhelming control and absorption of the Sea God Palace — a large portion had already been unified under its banner.

The complete unification of the entire Chaotic Sea Area seemed to be merely a matter of time, and not much time would be needed at that.

The changes occurring within the Chaotic Sea Area had already drawn the attention of the thirteen countries of the Southern Territory, located closest to the Sea.

The Chaotic Sea was known to be a place where Heavenly Saint level experts of the late stage existed, its overall power far surpassing that of the thirteen countries of the Southern Territory.

The strongest among the countries of the Southern Territory was merely Heavenly Saint Long Xuan at the mid-stage.

At this moment, Heavenly Saint Long Xuan was convening a meeting with many powerful figures from the Southern Territory nations, with Jia Luo, Jiang Yao's master from Taixuan Sect, also among them.

Heavenly Saint Long Xuan worriedly addressed the assembly, "The Chaotic Sea has always been a place of fragmented powers and utter chaos."

"This time, the sudden move by the Sea God Palace to unify the Chaotic Sea makes one wonder what their intentions are."

"Once the Chaotic Sea is unified, a powerful force will arise in the Barbaric Wilderness Continent. The unified Chaotic Sea might even rival the power of the three major dynasties in the central region. At that time, the Sea God Palace, leading the unification, could well contend with the Barbaric Wilderness Continent's strongest power, the Heavenly Sacred Palace!"

"In such a situation, we in the Southern Territory lie closest to the Chaotic Sea. Should the Sea desire to conquer us, we might not even have the strength to resist."

Heavenly Saint Long Xuan's worries ran deep.

The strong figures from the Southern Territory's thirteen nations were equally fraught with concern.

Even though the Chaotic Sea was still in the process of unification, and there had been no signs of them invading the Southern Territory, the prospect of such a formidable power emerging naturally caused extreme unease among the Martial Artists of the Southern Territory's thirteen nations.

In the assembly, Fairy Jia Luo was also filled with worry.

If the Chaotic Sea set its sights on the Southern Territory and decided to invade, her Sect, Taixuan, would be in grave danger.

And what of Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.

Although Fairy Jia Luo was aware that both Jiang Yao and Ye Chen had gone to the Heavenly Sacred Palace, Ye Chen's hometown lay within Heavenly Wind Kingdom, one of the thirteen nations of the Southern Territory.

Should the Southern Territory be invaded, Ye Chen's parents could be in mortal peril.

Fairy Jia Luo thought to herself, "It appears I must make arrangements to have Ye Chen's parents taken to the Heavenly Sacred Palace as a precaution."

While Fairy Jia Luo was increasingly troubled by the upheavals in the Chaotic Sea Area and their potential impact on the political stability of the Southern Territory, within the Heavenly Sacred Palace, a group of individuals had also taken note of the situation in the Chaotic Sea Area.

This group included Jiang Yao, True Phoenix, Mu Lan True God, Palace Master Yuan Li, and others.

When Jiang Yao had quietly followed True Phoenix and Mu Lan True God to the Five Elements Mountain without finding any trace of Ye Chen, her concern for him had grown.

Upon her return to the Heavenly Sacred Palace, when Jiang Yao heard from Palace Master Yuan Li of the drastic changes in the Chaotic Sea Area and the potential threats to the thirteen nations of the Southern Territory that lay close to the Sea, she grew exceptionally worried.

"This won't do. Ye Chen is still not back, and his father and mother are still in Heavenly Wind Kingdom. My master is also in the Southern Territory."

"Should the Chaotic Sea's situation affect the Southern Territory, they would all be in danger!"

"True Phoenix, Mu Lan, what exactly is happening in the Chaotic Sea? Why would the Sea God Palace suddenly aim to unify it?"

"Aunties, let's go to Heavenly Wind Kingdom. Only there can we protect my master and Ye Chen's parents and respond timely to the Southern Territory's changing situation."

Hearing Jiang Yao's words, True Phoenix and Mu Lan True God looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

They were of the True God Realm, but due to their origin from the Divine Phoenix Clan, they had to keep a low profile to avoid drawing attention from the True Gods of the Vermilion Bird Clan and the Flying Spirit Clan from the Upper Realm.

However, given the matters concerning Ye Chen and the connection to Jiang Yao's master, they would have to make a trip to the Southern Territory for their sake.

Even the two True Gods had a premonition that the sudden unification of the Chaotic Sea Area might not be as straightforward as it seemed.

They too felt they needed to investigate the matter further!
