Chapter 773

From Su Chen's few sentences of storytelling, he had already imagined the magnificent and tragic scene at that time.

Darkness rises, all spirits wail.

War drums sound, iron spears clang, cold light shines upon the starry sky.

One can imagine how terrifying the Dark Turmoil, which only a Great Emperor could suppress, was.

But these nine Great Completion Sacred Body experts resolutely stood out.

At the most dangerous moment when the human race had no Great Emperor, they carried the banner of the human race's survival with righteous and awe-inspiring spines.

The nine Sacred Bodies, generation after generation, deterred those dark forces that launched the Dark Turmoil, making them afraid to act recklessly.

This is precisely the root of the human race's inheritance.

Every one of them is an unparalleled hero of the human race.

How can such a Sacred Body not make people feel awe?

"This Desolate Ancient Sacred Body has such merits for all living beings in the universe; it is indeed worthy of the title of Ye the Heavenly Emperor."

"It's just that I don't know what these dark forces are, to be able to launch the Dark Turmoil again and again?"

"Since Ye Fan possesses such a tyrannical physique as the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, why can't he open his Bitter Sea after three months?"

Nie Feng calmly analyzed the plot.

He always felt that there were unknown secrets hidden within.

Bu Jingyun felt the same way.

The two of them looked towards the white jade platform in unison, waiting for Su Chen's answer.

……

On the white jade platform.

Su Chen lightly shook his folding fan. Listening to the excited discussions of the crowd, he couldn't help but smile slightly and said in a loud voice:

"Continuing the story!"

"Ye Fan heard that the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body was so powerful, and his blood boiled with excitement."

"But soon, a basin of cold water was poured over his head."

"The Desolate Ancient Sacred Body is indeed worthy of being the number one physique in the heavens, but that is limited to the Desolate Era."

"Perhaps because the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body was too powerful, it was cursed by the Heavenly Dao."

"In this Post-Desolate Era, cultivating the Sacred Body became incomparably difficult."

"Ordinary people can cultivate any technique, but the Sacred Body can only cultivate the Great Emperor techniques of the Desolate Era."

"Ordinary people need one portion of resources to cultivate the Bitter Sea Realm to Great Completion, but the Sacred Body needs ten thousand portions!"

"Such cultivation conditions can be described as harsh to the extreme."

"Before Ye Fan, several Sacred Bodies had appeared on the Big Dipper star."

"Some holy lands tried to cultivate a Sacred Body, letting it cultivate to the Great Completion Realm to reproduce the style of a Flawless Great Emperor."

"But the resources required for cultivating the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body were too many, so many that even a holy land could hardly support it."

"Moreover, every time the Sacred Body cultivation passes a level, it must undergo the baptism of a Heavenly Tribulation."

"Especially the level of passing the Four Extremes Secret Realm, which can be called a life-and-death tribulation, hence it is also known as the 'Four Extremes Broken Path'."

"The Sacred Body cultivated by that holy land ultimately died under this Heavenly Tribulation, leading to all resources being consumed in vain."

"Since then, the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body has been regarded as ominous, and no sect or force is willing to cultivate it."

"Even Elder Wu Qingfeng bluntly stated that for the Sacred Body, being an ordinary person is a blessing."

As Su Chen's voice fell, the hall was silent.

The Jianghu heroes who were just excited because Ye Fan had such a powerful Sacred Body were all dumbfounded at this moment.

This contrast was truly extreme.

They thought Ye Fan was like other novel protagonists, possessing an invincible physique.

But the result was exactly the opposite.

The Desolate Ancient Sacred Body is not a benefit at all; on the contrary, it is a curse, and a curse from the Heavenly Dao at that.

Ye Fan could not open his Bitter Sea for three months.

It was not because he was a late bloomer, but because cultivating the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body in this Post-Desolate Era is just that difficult.

Not only does it require the Great Emperor techniques from before the Desolate Era, but it also requires massive amounts of resources ten thousand times greater than ordinary people.

Such harsh conditions cannot be met even by transcendent forces like holy lands.

If that were all, it would be fine.

But the Sacred Body cultivation must undergo Heavenly Tribulation baptism every time it passes a level, and the Four Extremes Realm must undergo a life-and-death tribulation.

This is simply countless times harsher than an ordinary physique.

No one expected Ye Fan's start to be so hellish.

Born in the Darkest Age, and possessing the most ominous physique cursed by the Heavenly Dao.

Although Elder Wu Qingfeng's words were harsh, everyone had to admit it.

These words made a lot of sense; the best choice for a Sacred Body in this era is not to cultivate.

For a time, everyone in the hall began to discuss it one after another:

"Oh my god! The Sacred Body, which was famous in the Desolate Era, has actually become an ominous physique in the Post-Desolate Era?"

"This Ye the Heavenly Emperor is too unlucky; he was born in the Post-Desolate Era, the Darkest Age, with the darkest physique; how is this supposed to be played?"

"The ancients said: 'Things turn around when they reach the extreme.' Ye Fan has already collected all the ominousness; now is the time for his luck to reverse."

"I feel truly desperate; Ye Fan's cultivation path is too bumpy; not only does he have to cultivate Great Emperor techniques, but he also needs ten thousand times the resources and is cursed by the Heavenly Dao."

"Yes! Counting the entire Desolate Era, how many Great Emperor-level experts were there? Are Great Emperor techniques that easy to obtain?"

"The *Dao Scripture* starting chapter that Ye Fan is currently cultivating should belong to the Great Emperor techniques, but how will he get the subsequent techniques?"

"I really can't figure out why the Heavenly Dao would curse the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body? Weren't the nine Sacred Body experts of the Desolate Era fighting against the dark forces?"

"I also can't figure it out; the nine Sacred Bodies fought against the Dark Turmoil for all living beings in the universe; how did they end up with a curse? Is the Heavenly Dao on the side of the dark forces?"

"No wonder Ye the Heavenly Emperor wants to battle the Heavenly Dao; I'm afraid this Heavenly Dao is not a good thing!"

……

The eighth private room in the West District.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult; this Ye Fan's cultivation path is truly too difficult; giving up might be the best choice."

Ren Qianxing said with emotion.

He considers himself a person with extremely high spirit, but if he were in his shoes, he would also feel desperate.

A Sacred Body in the Post-Desolate Era is an existence that even holy lands cannot afford to cultivate.

Even if they spend great effort to cultivate it, they will eventually die on the Four Extremes Broken Path.

Such a cultivation path is better left untraveled.

"If it were someone else, perhaps they would give up. But Ye Fan definitely won't, because he is Ye the Heavenly Emperor!"

Guan Yutian said in a deep voice, his eyes full of brilliance.

Ren Qianxing also reacted.

That's right!

Ye Fan will never be defeated by this setback.

But how will Ye Fan break the situation?

Thinking of this, Ren Qianxing couldn't help but look towards the white jade platform, his eyes full of anticipation.

……

On the white jade platform.

Su Chen sipped some clear tea, in high spirits. Without waiting for everyone's discussion to end, he said in a loud voice:

"Continuing the story!"

"Ye Fan heard Wu Qingfeng's words, and his heart was like dead ashes."

"But he was absolutely unwilling to give up easily."

"So Ye Fan resolutely left the Lingxu Cave Heaven and went alone to find a path of cultivation."

"According to the elders of the Lingxu Cave Heaven, it is not that the Sacred Body cannot be cultivated in this era, it is just incomparably difficult."

"The most difficult part is that it requires an ancient Great Emperor scripture as a cultivation technique."

"And the *Dao Scripture*, as one of the strongest Emperor scriptures, naturally satisfies this condition."

"So before opening the Bitter Sea, Ye Fan does not need to worry about techniques."
