Chapter 480: The Yin of the Divine Seal is Demonic

A ghost ship!

It is a terrifying existence in the East Sea, second only to the Obliteration Storm.

In the eyes of many martial artists, the ghost ship is even more terrifying than the Obliteration Storm.

Although the Obliteration Storm is terrifying, it is at least stationary; as long as one does not seek death by charging into it, there is no danger.

However, the ghost ship is different. It is like a phantom in the East Sea. No one knows where it appears from, but every time it appears, everything in the path of the ship is annihilated.

Lin Chen first encountered the ghost ship in the East Sea and learned of its danger. After arriving at the Profound Heaven Sect, he specifically looked up records related to the ghost ship, only to realize that Wei Xuan's description of the ghost ship's terror back then was an understatement.

The records of the Profound Heaven Sect clearly state that not only those in the six stages of Innate, but even those in the Myriad Phenomena Stage dare not step foot on it.

Lin Chen knows this, and as a princess of the Moon Soul Clan, Yin Yue naturally knows it too. Moreover, she knows even more than Lin Chen. The ghost ship is not only a place where even Myriad Phenomena Stage experts dare not step foot, but it is also a taboo within the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao, and discussion of it is not permitted.

The jade slip in her clan has only a simple sentence of description: The ghost ship involves the secrets of the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao and is a taboo.

Both of them know the terror of the ghost ship, and now that Senior Jiang tells them that the Great Ancestor Emperor smuggled himself over from the ghost ship, this is harder for the two of them to accept than the idea that the Great Ancestor Emperor relied on some special means, such as a defensive supreme treasure comparable to a Myriad Phenomena Stage expert, to cross the periphery of the Obliteration Storm and enter Canglan Island.

"Under special circumstances, there are still martial artists who can enter the ghost ship."

Jiang Taiyi did not explain too much about how the Great Ancestor Emperor got onto the ghost ship or how he came to Canglan Island.

"Returning to this 'demon', beneath this abyss... lies the Divine Seal of an Emperor-level expert."

"Impossible!"

Yin Yue refuted him once again, and this time, the tone of questioning was incomparably intense.

Lin Chen listened from the side, feeling a bit dazed. When did another Emperor-level expert appear?

Listening to Yin Yue's tone, it is impossible for an Emperor-level expert to appear on Canglan Island. And what is this Divine Seal?

"Lin Chen, since the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao has existed for so many years, there are actually not many Myriad Phenomena Stage experts. Every super sect and we remnants... but there is only one Emperor-level expert, and that person's Divine Seal cannot possibly appear here."

This time, Yin Yue's tone was almost categorical: "The Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao only has one Emperor-level expert, and their Divine Seal is in the Imperial City!"

Hearing Yin Yue's explanation, a flash of brilliance crossed Lin Chen's eyes. He had roughly guessed what kind of existence the so-called Emperor-level expert was.

The entire Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao has only one, and it is still in the Imperial City...

"Little girl, I said you are too confident."

As a Myriad Phenomena Stage expert, being questioned by a junior several times in a row, Jiang Taiyi had no anger on his face: "This is the overseas region of the East Sea, a place shrouded by the Obliteration Storm. There is nothing that is impossible."

"Senior Jiang, the two of you are making me very confused. What exactly is Emperor-level, and what is a Divine Seal?"

Seeing that Yin Yue was still unconvinced, Lin Chen interrupted and took a step forward, preventing Yin Yue from wanting to refute further. He knew Yin Yue very well; the little girl's emotions were extremely stable, and even if he died in front of her, she probably wouldn't frown. But now she was refuting this Senior Jiang repeatedly, which meant that what Senior Jiang said had shattered her cognition.

"The founder of the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao was an Emperor-level expert, and the entire Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao only has that one Emperor-level expert. If there were another Emperor-level expert, then the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao would cease to exist. This is a law... no one can change it."

Yin Yue gave Lin Chen the answer: "One Emperor lives, a new dynasty rises; no one can change that. As for the Divine Seal... you can understand it as the soul of an Emperor-level expert, but it is many levels higher than a soul. I don't know the specifics."

The Moon Soul remnants have indeed existed for a very long time, but the clan has never produced an Emperor-level expert, and the records regarding Emperor-level experts in the clan are extremely scarce, with only a few words here and there.

After listening to Yin Yue's explanation, Lin Chen did not firmly believe it was impossible. Perhaps Yin Yue was biased, but he had his own judgment.

"Is it possible that it is the Divine Seal of some Emperor-level expert from before the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao?"

The Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao has a very long history. Were there other dynasties before the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao?

Lin Chen's guess made Yin Yue silent. Of course, there were other dynasties before the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao, but... but it is impossible for two Emperor-level experts to exist in the world at the same time... this is also a law.

"I ask Senior to enlighten me."

Lin Chen bowed to Jiang Taiyi. Rather than refuting here, it is better to wait for this Senior Jiang's explanation.

"I cannot resolve your doubts either. Why there would be an Emperor-level expert's Divine Seal beneath this abyss, I do not know the answer to. The truth inside is too far away for you and me. The reason I called you here this time is, firstly, to give you an opportunity, and secondly, to have you help me suppress this Divine Seal."

Jiang Taiyi's eyes were deep as he looked at the churning black mist in front of him. Lin Chen's mouth twitched. He was only at the second stage of Innate; in front of an Emperor-level Divine Seal, he was like an ant.

"Do not belittle yourself. Myriad Phenomena Stage experts cannot do anything to the Divine Seal, but you can."

"I can?"

Lin Chen rubbed his nose. Senior Jiang really thought highly of him.

"As long as you are talented enough, the black mist cannot hurt you."

Uh?

Hearing Senior Jiang's words, Lin Chen was stunned. What kind of logic is this? As long as he is talented enough, the black mist cannot hurt him.

It couldn't be that this Divine Seal is waiting for a genius to acknowledge it as master?

Is this the Emperor-level expert leaving it behind to choose a disciple to accept the inheritance?

"So Senior Jiang founded the Martial Garden to search for geniuses to come here?"

"Yes... and no."

Jiang Taiyi sighed softly: "I once personally cultivated several geniuses, among whom there were those who reached the second stage of Innate at your age, and some even surpassed you in stage. But these few entered the abyss and never came out again."

Lin Chen noticed a trace of sorrow in this Senior Jiang's eyes. Even if this Senior Jiang's purpose in cultivating those few was to suppress the black mist, it could be considered a master-disciple relationship. Several disciples died in the abyss; it would be impossible not to feel sad.

Myriad Phenomena Stage experts are high and mighty, but that is directed at people with whom they have no intersection. How could he not have feelings for the disciples he cultivated himself?

"To cultivate them, I left Canglan Island several times to go to the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao, and it was precisely at that time that I met your grandfather..."

Jiang Taiyi's gaze turned to Yin Yue. Yin Yue did not question him this time. Even for a Myriad Phenomena Stage expert, cultivating a twenty-year-old second-stage Innate expert is not an easy thing, let alone cultivating several. He must have put in a lot of effort to find martial arts resources for his disciples.

As for finding her grandfather, it must have been for Innate Stones.

With enough Innate Stones, a second-stage Innate martial artist can quickly break through to the third stage of Innate.

It is just that this "enough" is an extremely terrifying number. ===== CHAPTER 481 =====
