Chapter 143: Fairy Lianyi

People of this era, if placed in my era, each one would be regarded as a precious treasure!

Ye Chen sighed.

Not necessarily; you yourself are a typical example. With such strong talent of yours, aren't you still being hunted by the Esteemed Founder?

All we can say is that different eras' environments shape different people.

Hunyan said.

After Hunyan finished speaking, Ye Chen fell into silence; indeed, as Hunyan said, different eras' environments shape different people.

At this moment, the discussion of the Dao had reached its climax, with heated debate.

But no one argued until their faces flushed red; they were simply actively expressing their cultivation ideas, viewpoints, and insights.

Ye Chen stood aside listening, not participating, just quietly listening; here, no one's cultivation is below His, everyone's cultivation is higher than his. For this situation, Ye Chen chose to quietly listen to their cultivation insights.

The time spent discussing the Dao passed quickly; after they finished their discussion, they each went their separate ways.

And Ye Chen was also brought by Yeming and Huohe to a certain blessed land.

"Fellow Daoist Ye Chen, this place will temporarily serve as your resting place."

Yeming said to Ye Chen.

Feeling the spiritual energy flowing from the blessed land, Ye Chen couldn't help but be startled; he asked Yeming and Huohe, "Are you sure you want to give this place to me? Such a good place, won't you give it to other disciples?"

After Ye Chen finished speaking, Yeming and Huohe exchanged a glance, then let out hearty laughter.

"Fellow Daoist Ye Chen, you needn't worry about this; we have another 108,000 such blessed lands."

After Huohe finished speaking, Ye Chen couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, "Indeed, this is a great age of cultivation; the foundation is truly immense!"

Ye Chen thought to himself.

Yeming and Huohe saw Ye Chen's emotion, and smilingly said to him, "Rest assured staying here; seeing that your cultivation is about to break through, cultivate well and break through as soon as possible."

Yeming was like a kind elder brother, speaking to Ye Chen.

After Yeming finished speaking, Ye Chen nodded solemnly.

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Ye Chen, I and Junior Brother Huohe still have matters to attend to; you go ahead and cultivate."

"Mm."

Ye Chen agreed; after Ye Chen agreed, Yeming and Huohe left this place. Seeing them depart, Ye Chen also prepared to enter the blessed land to cultivate, but just as he was about to enter, a playful voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hey, are you that newly arrived fellow Daoist?"

Upon hearing the voice, Ye Chen turned around; instantly, a fairy dressed in emerald-green robes entered his sight.

As her skirt swayed, a half-translucent azure scale pattern floated up; the ice crystal pendant hanging from the wooden hairpin in her hair tinkled lightly with her steps; her left pupil reflected an emerald deep pool, while her right eye swirled with the green of newborn sprouts; a half petal of peach blossom clung to her lips, and only upon close look did one realize it was an illusion formed from a congenital cinnabar mole.

A gust of wind lifted the silk cords at her waist, causing the entwined silver bells to chime softly.

Ye Chen blurted out subconsciously, "Peerless beauty in the world."

"Ah?!"

The fairy seemed dazed by Ye Chen's sudden words, not yet reacting to what was happening.

"No, nothing, I was just talking to myself."

Ye Chen explained, not wanting to admit he had just been staring foolishly.

"Pfft."

The fairy was amused by Ye Chen's reaction and said to him, "Fellow Daoist, how humorously quaint you are."

"No, I was just thinking about something; my mind didn't catch up."

Ye Chen said with a laugh.

"Oh, is that so."

The fairy nodded thoughtfully.

"Fellow Daoist, I haven't yet asked for your name."

"I am Ye Chen; and you?"

"Lianyi."

"A fine name."

Ye Chen blurted out those words; upon saying them, Lianyi laughed again.

"Your way of complimenting people is rather cliché."

After Lianyi finished speaking, Ye Chen scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Um, would you like to go inside and sit? This is the place arranged for me by Senior Brother Yeming and Senior Brother Huohe."

"No need; I merely came to see the newly arrived fellow Daoist. I still need to return to cultivate; I'll be able to break through soon."

"Alright, then I won't see Fairy Lianyi off."

"Alright."

After Lianyi finished speaking, she rode the wind away.

Seeing this, Ye Chen let out a soft sigh, "What a pity, such a beautiful fairy won't live much longer."

"You're feeling regret?"

Hunyan suddenly spoke up.

"A bit; if I were to marry her back home as a wife, my mother would surely be pleased."

"You should be focusing on your cultivation now; why are you thinking about these things?"

"I'm not devoid of the seven emotions and six desires, and I've grown up; this is just a normal psychological change."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, Hunyan fell silent, and Ye Chen also walked into the blessed land to begin cultivation.

He is currently at the eighth layer of God Transformation, nearly perfected; if he cultivates wholeheartedly, he will be able to break through again soon.

Moreover, he possesses a strong foundation of three layers of Extreme Boundary; even if his breakthrough is rapid, he need not worry about an unstable foundation.

Moreover, each of his steps is steady and solid; there's no need to worry about an unstable foundation.

Since the day he entered seclusion, the outside world has been undergoing tremendous changes.

Reincarnation Immortal King's negotiations failed; the battlefield is advancing, and countless cultivators from this world have joined the battlefield.

But before this battlefield, this giant meat grinder, their lives are like ants; even if many more go in, they hardly survive.

And the battle between the two worlds shows no sign of ending.

Many disciples of the Reincarnation Immortal King have successively joined the battlefield; compared to before, it has become much quieter.

Time slipped by quietly in Ye Chen's cultivation.

When he emerged from his cultivation, it was already a month later.

And his cultivation had successfully reached the ninth level of God Transformation.

When he came out of the Blessed Land, he sensed that there were far fewer people here.

They frowned and asked Hun Yan:

"What's going on?"

"Reincarnation Former King, negotiations failed, war has begun."

After Hun Yan spoke, Ye Chen's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Is there really no room for compromise at all?"

"No, because the people of that world are determined to devour ours."

"Why is this? Even someone as strong as the Eternal Immortal King or the Reincarnation Immortal King can't stop the battlefield?"

"No."

After Hun Yan spoke, Ye Chen's fists clenched involuntarily.

Hun Yan sensed Ye Chen's emotion and said to him, "Do you know why this is?"

"Why?"

Ye Chen immediately asked.

"Because those people cultivate a new law, while we follow the old law; their new law specifically targets our old law, and aside from those who have cultivated to the Immortal King level being unaffected, everyone below the Immortal King is affected."

"Even cultivators of the God Transformation realm, our side might need to send four or five people to kill just one of theirs, and... this is even when they are of the same rank."

After Hun Yan spoke, Ye Chen's bones creaked from his grip.

At the same time, Hun Yan's words also strengthened his resolve to forge a completely new path.

"Are Ye Ming and Huo He still around?"

Ye Chen asked Hun Yan.

"Yes, they are."

After Hun Yan spoke, Ye Chen prepared to look for them, but the moment he stepped forward, a voice suddenly called out to him.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ye Chen, on your breakthrough."

The person who came was none other than Lian Yi.

"Lian Yi? How did you come here?"

"It was Senior Brother Ye Ming who sent me; he told me to tell you to leave this place immediately upon waking, for it will become very dangerous."

"Why?"

"Because..."

However, before Lian Yi could finish speaking, a tremendous tremor suddenly came from beyond the heavens!
