Primordial Star Scripture

"But if we kill Ye Chen at Five Elements Mountain, when we set up the Heavenly Saint Space barrier, no one will know it was our doing. Not even Yuan Li would guess that Ye Chen died at our hands. After all, at Five Elements Mountain, there are countless ways to perish; no one will know how Ye Chen died."

Hearing Ao Xuan and Ao Ming speak so, Ao Lei's somber expression finally eased slightly, "Hmph, then this kid is lucky, he gets to live a few more days."

"There are only three days left for the adventure in Five Elements Mountain. Soon, this kid won't be so lucky. I don't believe that Huo Mei'er can protect him the whole time. In Five Elements Mountain, they are bound to be separated!"

Seeing Ao Lei's face relax, Ao Xuan and Ao Ming also smiled, "Alright, Young Master, let's not worry about Ye Chen for now. We should head back and properly prepare for the adventure with the 'Treasure Cave Key' to explore the 'Divine Heritage Cave'! That's the priority!"

At the mention of the "Divine Heritage Cave", a spark of eagerness flashed in Ao Lei's eyes, "Divine Heritage Cave, I've long heard Uncle Flying Spirit talk about his last entry, the mystery and wonders, I can't wait to go in..."

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

After their exchange, Ao Lei, Ao Xuan, Ao Ming, and the others moved swiftly and vanished into the vast desert.

...

Heavenly Evolution Tower.

Within Ye Chen's living quarters, inside the cultivation chamber.

After returning to Heavenly Evolution Tower, Ye Chen talked with Huo Mei'er for a while before saying farewell to each other. Ye Chen then returned to his own room.

From the fact that Huo Mei'er had been sticking to him with banter all the way back to Heavenly Evolution Tower, Ye Chen had an inkling of her intentions.

"Probably, Huo Mei'er was worried about Ao Lei causing me trouble, and that's why she accompanied me back, right..."

Ye Chen smiled faintly.

He didn't expose Huo Mei'er's intentions, nor did he say that he wasn't afraid of Ao Lei.

After all, Huo Mei'er had good intentions. On the Heavenly Evolution Continent, his acquaintance with Huo Mei'er had begun with a fight; having one more caring friend was a good thing.

As for Ao Lei...

Thinking of Ao Lei, Ye Chen's eyes grew cold: "You dare to give me trouble? Then bring it on; we'll see who's the real trouble for whom!"

After putting Ao Lei's matter aside, Ye Chen took out all the treasures he had acquired at the auction in the Sand Sea Palace, one by one, in the cultivation chamber.

Void Heaven Sword Embryo, Virtual Gold Holy Spirit Fruit, a low-grade holy Earth-attribute secret treasure, a low-grade holy Water-attribute secret treasure, and a mysterious wooden plaque...

After taking a good look at each treasure again, Ye Chen stored all the other treasures except for several Five Elements Secret Treasures.

"There are three days until the exploration of Five Elements Mountain. These three days, I better take the chance to cultivate more!"

A good sword is forged with sharpening!

Every bit of progress can't be separated from daily hard practice!

Of course, Ye Chen wouldn't be complacent or neglectful of cultivation. He knew that any bit of self-indulgence could potentially bring real threats of death when facing crises in the future.

Only by diligently training and making oneself more capable and confident can one be fearless of any threat!

Whoosh!

With a thought, Ye Chen began to absorb and refine the first treasure, the low-grade holy Water-attribute secret treasure.

...

Three days passed in a flash.

When the day of the Five Elements Mountain adventure officially arrived, bright and early, the Adventure Talisman on Ye Chen emitted a signal, guiding the adventurers to gather in Rift Sky City!

Ye Chen was jolted awake from his cultivation by the resonance of the waves.

"So soon, three days have passed?"

Upon opening his eyes, Ye Chen glanced at his Adventure Talisman and smiled faintly as he rose from his cultivation.

"Three days is really too short." Find your next adventure on empire

"In these three days, I've only managed to refine a low-grade saintly water-element secret treasure and a low-grade saintly earth-element secret treasure. I've only just begun to cultivate and absorb the 'Virtual Gold Holy Spirit Fruit', a gold-element secret treasure, refining less than one twentieth of it."

"I'm afraid it will take at least another month to refine all of the Five Elements Secret Treasures on my body!"

Ye Chen said, feeling sentimental.

"However..."

Within this sentiment, Ye Chen stretched out his hand, and poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, five divine lights simultaneously burst forth from his palm.

These five divine lights were unmistakably the fighting lights of the Five Great Divine Arts: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth!

"However... after beginning to refine the 'Virtual Gold Holy Spirit Fruit', I can now use all of the Five Great Divine Arts! The gold-attribute 'Golden Light Divine Slash', the wood-attribute Wood-Attribute Divine Art, the water-attribute 'Heaven Origin Divine Water', the fire-attribute 'Devouring Heavenly True Fire', and the earth-attribute 'Earth Returning Origin Jue'. Now, finally, they all possess the power of combat!"

Ye Chen looked at the five rays of divine light on his palm, his heart swelling with pride.

Now, the power of these Five Great Divine Arts had already made his combat strength among the top in the mid Heavenly Saint stage, and in time, once he fully mastered all Five Great Divine Arts, he would fear no Heavenly Saint, fear not a single person in all thirty-three continents!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ye Chen flipped his hand and reabsorbed the five divine lights back into his body.

His gaze then turned to the nine frozen guardians within the Divine Ice Jade Pendant, to the Heavenly Ring in the same pendant, and to the little monkey inside the Heavenly Ring.

"Nine seniors."

"Little monkey."

"Today, we set off to venture into that mysterious and dangerous Five Elements Mountain!"

...

As Ye Chen left the Heavenly Evolution Tower, with the nine frozen guardians and the little monkey from the Divine Ice Jade Pendant, heading towards the gathering place in Rift Sky City,

Thousands of figures also flew towards the gathering spot.

Among these figures were Huo Mei'er, Ao Lei, disciples from the Heavenly Saint Palace from the Barbarian Continent, and powerful warriors from across the thirty-three continents...

Meanwhile, in the void, three more people were also heading towards that gathering place.

"Lieyang brother, being the foremost Saint Heir of our five continents, why do you also journey to the Five Elements Mountain for adventure? That Five Elements Mountain should have little to excite your interest by now," a young man among the three smiled and asked the white-clad man in the center.

The white-clad man, smiling in response was handsome and elegant, every movement carried an air of looking down upon the world!

His eyes shone brightly, as if with the gleam of a golden sun, and he looked towards the meeting place for the expedition to Five Elements Mountain in Rift Sky City, saying with a light smile, "This trip to the Five Elements Mountain is merely to seek one item and slay one person."

If someone recognized these three figures in the void, they would be astounded. These three were none other than the Saint Heirs from three sacred lands on the Xuanjin Continent, Qingmu Continent, and Xugu Continent of the five great Void Heaven Law continents!

Their reputation was akin to that of Huo Mei'er and the Little Saintess of the Luoshui Holy Land on the Water Element Continent of Tianmiao Continent.

And this handsome man in white, was none other than the foremost among the five great Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the five great sacred lands, the Inherited Saint of Xuanjin Continent, a top-tier late-stage Heavenly Saint—Jin Lieyang!
