Chapter 681: The Origin Golden Realm is completed, the Three Purities become the realm lords
Suddenly…… Ye Qin became the tool for Chang'e to vent her anger. However, this feeling made him feel extraordinarily wonderful.
Ye Qin was still experiencing this feeling for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel somewhat excited.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye a year had passed. During this year, Ye Qin never stepped out of the Golden House Hiding Beauty palace even half a step.
After a year, the official gate finally opened, and everything returned to the right track.
Ye Qin began to teach them the complete Pangu's "Opening Heaven Scripture", and told them the method of opening up the world.
Afterward, he had them cultivate inside the Golden House Hiding Beauty palace, while he cultivated outside.
Because his cultivation movements were too great, Heavenly Tribulation often descended, and the chaotic qi would become violent.
Unless they all reach the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm, there will be mortal danger in the chaotic space.
He returned to the Biyou Palace on Penglai Island, set up a restriction, and placed the complete method of cultivating the "Opening Heaven Scripture" inside it.
However, due to the existence of the restriction, no one besides him could forcibly obtain it.
If Laozi and others wanted to obtain the "Opening Heaven Scripture", they would have to use contribution points to open the restriction.
Once the requirements are met, the corresponding chapters can be exchanged.
After handling these affairs, Ye Qin returned to the chaotic space and began to comprehend the three thousand Dao.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred years of time flowed by. Ye Qin had already mastered a thousand kinds of chaotic Dao, and he integrated the nearly five hundred newly comprehended Dao into his world. His one hundred fifty worlds further evolved, drawing one step closer to complete evolution.
However, just then, he suddenly awoke from his seclusion. Because he sensed the aura of Heavenly Tribulation, but it was not his Heavenly Tribulation, but Nüwa's.
After over a hundred years of cultivation, Nüwa finally entered the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm. She was the only one among the former Heavenly Dao sages who successfully cultivated to this realm.
As for why she could progress so quickly, it was naturally because of Ye Qin.
After all, people like Laozi are still busy doing tasks and farming contribution points.
Thinking of Laozi, Ye Qin couldn't help but think of his master, the Tongtian Sect Leader. He didn't know how many lifetimes he had already reincarnated.
He took out the human register and began to search for the Tongtian Sect Leader's reincarnated incarnation.
Finally, he found him on Mount Shu of the human race.
At this time, Tongtian was still in the midst of reincarnation. His 129,600 lifetimes of reincarnation had only just begun a small fraction, so Ye Qin did not go to find him, but let him continue reincarnating.
Because 129,600 reincarnations bring immense benefits to the Tongtian Sect Leader.
When he cultivates to a certain realm and awakens the memories of these 129,600 reincarnations, he will gain immeasurable benefits.
This benefit mainly lies in the will, to the point that even Ye Qin felt moved. After all, a reincarnation that can temper a cultivator's will to be extraordinarily resilient and firm the Dao heart is truly rare.
However, he could only sigh helplessly. After all, everyone's path is different.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's path, although time-consuming, offers irreplaceable benefits. And time is exactly what Ye Qin lacks.
Therefore, he did not choose the Tongtian Sect Leader's path, but chose the path of opening up the world.
Meanwhile, during these long years, he continually tempered his Dao heart, moving forward step by step.
The Tongtian Sect Leader, on the other hand, obviously wanted to first lay an extremely solid foundation before cultivating. That is why he chose to accumulate through 129,600 reincarnations.
Time flew by, and in a flash a thousand years quietly passed.
During this period, Ye Qin never set foot in Honghuang, yet he had become the unparalleled supreme being in Honghuang, akin to the ancient Hongjun who merged with the Dao, dwelling high above the thirty-three heavens in the chaotic space, overlooking all beings of Honghuang and silently observing the tremendous changes of the Honghuang world.
During this long thousand-year period, his cultivation level broke through again, rising to the peak of the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm, and the number of worlds opened up inside his body increased to over three hundred!
He once tried to trace the whereabouts of Hongjun and Yangmei, hoping to permanently eliminate these two hidden dangers, but alas, the two were too cunning, and Ye Qin ultimately came away empty-handed.
Another thousand years passed in a flash, and this time Ye Qin did not rush to raise his cultivation level, but instead focused his efforts on perfecting the worlds opened up inside his body.
He knew well that before the worlds were fully evolved, a reckless breakthrough would only invite a world-ending heavenly tribulation, a force he currently could not withstand.
He quietly observed the evolution of the Honghuang world, yet the two thousand years of waiting brought little substantive change, which made Ye Qin somewhat anxious.
Thus, he began to deeply study the temporal Dao and spatial Dao, hoping to accelerate the evolution of the Honghuang world through these two Dao.
After a hundred years, he succeeded in making time stop for three breaths within a hundred-meter radius around himself.
After two hundred years, this duration extended to nine breaths, and the radius expanded to one kilometer.
……
After a thousand years, he finally fused the temporal Dao and spatial Dao, opening the gate of the River of Time!
……
After five thousand years, he already stood within the River of Time, becoming a part of it.
……
After ten thousand years, he followed the River of Time downstream to the future of the Honghuang world. He saw countless heavenly prodigies rise, one after another Grand Luo Golden Immortal cultivating in the chaotic space.
Finally, he saw an old acquaintance—the Tongtian Sect Leader.
At this time, the Tongtian Sect Leader was still in the midst of reincarnation. After a moment's hesitation, Ye Qin pointed a finger, imparting his countless insights into the Dao to the Tongtian Sect Leader, and left behind three full-force attacks as a life-saving measure.
Afterward, he continued forward, leaving his voice in spacetime: "Once you protected my Dao; now I protect your Dao!"
While he went downstream along the River of Time, he also contemplated the evolution patterns of the Honghuang world. This method of directly observing the future evolution of the Honghuang world gave Ye Qin a deeper understanding of world evolution.
As he walked along the River of Time, the worlds opened up inside his body became increasingly perfected. After one yuanhui, the evolution degree of the worlds reached seventy percent; after two yuanhuis, eighty percent; after three yuanhuis, ninety percent.
However, thereafter the speed suddenly slowed. The fourth yuanhui added only five percent; the fifth yuanhui added another two percent. Until the twentieth yuanhui, the worlds he opened up finally completed their evolution!
At that moment, he underwent ultimate evolution, his cultivation level rising another tier. All worlds began to provide him with the needed Dao, chaotic qi, and all other resources.
Ye Qin looked back at Honghuang, but there were no familiar faces left. He tried to continue forward, yet felt an invisible force severing the River of Time. He arrived at the end of this segment.
He gazed far into the distance, but could not see the story of the next segment of the River of Time; he only vaguely sensed that his acquaintances were there. He did not linger, turned back, and soon returned to the world-river node where he was, appearing in the chaotic space.
In the eyes of Houtu and the others, Ye Qin had merely left for a moment's time.
However, in that brief moment, Ye Qin roamed through dozens of yuanhuis of the future Honghuang world!
Likewise, in that same moment, Ye Qin's departure caused Houtu, the Three Purities, Nüwa, and others to panic greatly, for they could not sense his presence at all, as if he had never existed.
"My lord, why just now could we not feel you?" Houtu asked anxiously, while the other maidens also gazed at Ye Qin nervously.
"I entered the River of Time and went to the future spacetime. When returning, I failed to grasp the temporal node properly, and was late by a moment." Ye Qin explained while stroking Houtu's hair.
Earth Mother let out a breath, "Annoying! Next time you do this, could you at least give us a heads-up? You scared us to death."
Ye Qin looked apologetically at the women, nodding his head. Suddenly, he turned his gaze toward the depths of the Chaos Space.
"What's wrong?" Earth Mother looked at him worriedly.
"It's fine, I just discovered Vast Harmony and Yang Eyebrows." Ye Qin smiled, "You all return to the Golden House Hiding Beauty Palace first; don't come out for a while. I see them returning so recklessly—they must think they have a chance to defeat me."
"Are you okay?" Earth Mother asked again worriedly.
"It's fine, go back. I want to see how they plan to deal with me." Ye Qin said confidently.
Since he seriously injured those two, over ten thousand years have passed exactly.
Now, Vast Harmony and Yang Eyebrows have finally reappeared. Ye Qin was curious about just what level they had reached.
Before, he had defeated them relying on Pangu's power; now he wants to see if he can defeat them with his own strength.
"Primordial Luo Golden Immortal peak realm?" Ye Qin laughed. He too is at that realm, but the realm can no longer represent everything.
He stood still in place, waiting for their arrival.
However, at this moment he felt that those two were nothing special. Because he had already detected them, but they had not yet detected Ye Qin.
This is the gap in strength. Ye Qin shook his head, having thought there would be an evenly matched battle, but he didn't expect Vast Harmony and Yang Eyebrows' strength to now be insufficient to even warrant a look.
He stood for a full year before those two, from afar, finally saw Ye Qin.
During that year, Ye Qin had been observing them, while they had been rushing forward with all their might.
In other words, Ye Qin's power had completely crushed those two, but they were completely unaware.
After all, at this moment Ye Qin emitted no aura whatsoever; if they didn't engage in combat, they would have no way of discerning his strength.
"Lord Ye, long time no see! Over these past ten thousand plus years, we've been thinking of you!" came Vast Harmony's voice from afar.
The soul-devouring threads that had been deadlocked with the Destroying Sword Soul for a long moment suddenly extended, wrapping loop after loop tightly around the Destroying Sword Soul, then with a fierce pull actually hauled the Destroying Sword Soul to lunge violently at the Chaos Sword Devil.
"No! Don't!" the Sword Devil's true spirit let out a terrified shriek; he had personally experienced the excruciating pain of his soul being torn apart by the Destroying Sword Soul, that anguish of his soul being continually split still haunts him to this day and fills his heart with fear.
Yet how could Ye Qin heed his plea? He mobilized all soul power from the soul realm, hurling the Destroying Sword Soul violently into the sea of souls of the Three Purities, which is now the Chaos Sword Devil's soul domain.
Pfft!
Upon contacting the Chaos Sword Devil's natal true spirit, the Destroying Sword Soul, like a weary bird returning to its nest, emitted endless soul-destroying sword qi, deeply merging into the Chaos Sword Devil's natal true spirit.
Yet his natal true spirit was as fragile as glass, instantly sliced into countless fragments by the sword qi.
"Damn it!" the Chaos Sword Devil, now extremely vexed, having finally shaken off the entanglement of the Destroying Sword Soul, never expected it to become his own harbinger of death. Is there any other Chaos Devil more vexed than him in this world?
Although the Chaos Sword Devil's natal true spirit had shattered into millions of fragments, his true spirit is indestructible and further possesses the immortal quality of chaos golden qi.
In an instant, he escaped from the sea of souls and reappeared in the outer world.
Ye Qin had long been waiting here; he deployed the Soul Dao, countless soul-devouring threads winding upward, tightly binding the Chaos Sword Devil's true spirit.
"Chaos golden qi, primordial and immortal, explode!"
With a tremendous boom, all of Ye Qin's soul-devouring threads snapped, and the Chaos Sword Devil's natal true spirit turned into specks of golden light, dissipating into nothingness, bursting through the void, vanished without a trace.
Only a distant voice echoed in the air: "Bastard, I will return!"
"That Chaos Sword Devil, as a cultivator of chaos primordial golden qi, truly lives up to being a Chaos Devil; his natal true spirit is not only indestructible but also possesses immortal golden nature, allowing him to freely escape into space. This is indeed a supreme life-saving measure, just as he said—he will surely appear again in the future, only we don't know when." Ye Qin thought to himself.
With the Chaos Sword Devil's true spirit having fled, the entire space now contained only Ye Qin, Ao Ling, and the Three Purities' physical body controlled by the Destroying Sword Soul.
Sword qi still crisscrossed, golden qi rose and merged into the walls of the space.
"Carefree Wanderer brother, this Destroying Sword Soul is too terrifying—what should we do now?" Ao Ling asked, unaware of Ye Qin's plan, thinking they were truly helpless against the Destroying Sword Soul.
"This space was formed from the primordial source of the Chaos Sword Devil's Great Dao; after his natal true spirit separated from the Destroying Sword Soul, that primordial source transformed into this golden sword, which is this very space. The core of this space is a colossal sword condensed from nine layers of artistic conception, sealing the Destroying Sword Soul. Now the Destroying Sword Soul has actually become the core of this primordial space! This golden sword is a weapon of destruction, and moreover an uncontrolled weapon of destruction. Hehe, perfect—my Carefree Wanderer realm ought to also open a primordial golden realm!" Ye Qin explained.
Saying this, Ye Qin took Yunxiao's body together with the Destroying Sword Soul into his Carefree Wanderer realm.
With the Destroying Sword Soul gone, Ye Qin and Ao Ling appeared outside Gold Turtle Island. That Rising Cloud Golden Sword had vanished without trace, the pervasive golden qi had dissipated, leaving only a valley filled with sword-path artistic conception. In the valley lay a broad plain; on the plain was a sword-shaped pit containing the Chaos Sword Dao. Should any sentient being cultivate there, they would surely comprehend the sword-path artistic conception within.
"Daddy, hug me!" Niu Niu wobbled over from afar, her chubby little face adorable as she flung herself into Ye Qin's embrace. (End of chapter)
