Best Young Master

From the memory of Pang Wei, he already knew that Ye Fan was not dead. Instead, he broke through the sealing of the Heavenly Prison and rushed into the vast Star Domain, embarking on the ancient star road leading to the Dark Nebula where the Death Creatures reside.

"Ye Fan, I hope you’ll be alright!"

The Old Bastard did not immediately rush onto the ancient star road to pursue Ye Fan. Instead, he silently prayed for him in his heart.

This most ancient Xing Kong Gu Road connects to the world of Human-shaped creatures. Even he is not qualified to make a decision on his own, so he needs to notify other strong people and discuss what to do next!

After sending the message back to the Xuan Realm, the Old Bastard temporarily stayed in the Human Clan’s First City, waiting for other Quasi-Emperors to arrive, as he alone could not reseal the Heavenly Prison.

The local forces of the entire First City of the Human Race underwent a major reshuffle. Even with the Old Bastard’s presence, there were still undercurrents flowing beneath, with occasional reports of unparalleled strong people from certain clans being assassinated.

Those who were killed were basically the ones who had been closer to the City Lord, their hands stained with blood and sin.

The Old Bastard was well aware of these matters but did not intervene, letting them fight amongst themselves. The Human Clan’s First City also needed a blood exchange, or who could guarantee that a new City Lord wouldn’t walk the old path of Pang Wei?

The tacit approval from the Old Bastard caused the families previously colluding with Pang Wei to be even more fearful, almost like rats crossing the street, shouted at and attacked by all.

Especially the Chen Family, which was almost wiped out the same day the City Lord Mansion was blood-washed, with the Family Head being killed on the spot, his head whereabouts unknown.

These people, who were usually arrogant and domineering, significantly restrained themselves, allowing many ordinary natives to breathe a sigh of relief, cheering joyously.

The entire Divine City was adorned with lanterns and decorations, with many restaurants and inns putting up congratulatory banners, offering free service for three days to celebrate the downfall of the City Lord.

Some powerful and deeply rooted families were plotting carefully at this moment. With the City Lord suppressed and the City Lord Mansion blood-washed, it was clear that the Old Bastard couldn’t stay here for long. He still needed to patrol other cities on the Xing Kong Gu Road, so the position of City Lord...

The Human Clan’s First City couldn’t be without a City Lord. Perhaps the next City Lord would emerge from their clans.

With such thoughts, these powerful families were acting very cautiously lately, with even the direct lineage of the family not daring to misbehave for fear of tarnishing their family’s reputation.

The Human Clan’s First City may have calmed down, but Linxian Ancient Star was shocked. Ye Fan was well known across the entire Xuan Realm.

Single-handedly standing against the top ten young kings of the Demon Clan, he turned the tide when it was about to collapse, salvaged the dignity of the Human Race, won peace, and even slew the Heavenly Prince of the Demon Clan, greatly thwarting the morale of the Demon Clan.

It could be said that Ye Fan had rendered great service to the Human Race throughout the Xuan Realm, yet he was forced by the City Lord of the First City of the Human Race to break through the Heavenly Prison, to wander in desolate Star Domains. It’s simply outrageous and intolerable!

Compared to the anger of ordinary cultivators, Elder Lin and the Sloppy Elder were more concerned about the matter of the Heavenly Prison being breached.

Once the Human-shaped creatures learn of it, the dark wave will undoubtedly come early. This is a cataclysmic disaster that must be quickly addressed to fix the breached sealing!

...

The universe is boundless, the Star Domain infinite, yet, many places are devoid of stars, nothing but a deathly silence and darkness. In the vast universe, there is not a sound.

The terrible cold silence is as freezing as the Divine Soul of the Dongsui people; this is everything, this is the universe, and there is nothing else.

Not to mention humans, even a star is merely a speck of dust in this vast universe; in this boundless ancient universe, everything is insignificant.

After seizing the Li Huo Essence Jade from the Earth Fire Divine Dragon, Ye Fan and the Bai Yan wolf climbed the altar and activated the star door to travel across.

However, after traversing several Star Domains in succession and passing through more than a dozen Ancient Stars, they encountered no other creatures.

After stepping out of the star gate, they Jing Lin arrived on a desolate Ancient Star, full of criss-crossing ravines and huge chasms, almost splitting the entire Ancient Star apart.

Here, the road ahead was broken, the transmission altar completely shattered. On this Ancient Star, they searched for a whole half a year, only finding some fragments of ancient altars.

"That’s it, this is the end of the Xing Kong Gu Road. Even if we wanted to return the same way, it’s not possible," said Bai Yan wolf dejectedly.

Ye Fan’s eyes shot out two beams of determined light. After calmly thinking for a moment, he said, "Perhaps this is also a form of training. We will repair the altar, continue the broken road, and definitely move forward. I want to see what kind of path the ancestors have opened up."

"It’s easy for you to say. Do you know what materials are needed to construct an altar capable of traversing the stars? Those are all rare materials, and even searching the whole Ancient Star might not be enough," Bai Yan wolf said, discouragingly.

"Isn’t it better than sitting here waiting to die? Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and engrave the array platform. We’ll cross to nearby planets to see if we can find materials to build the altar."

Ye Fan slapped Bai Yan wolf on the head.

Concerning their own lives, Bai Yan wolf didn’t dare to slack off. Luckily, there was enough Green Jade in stock. Although it couldn’t build a large Transmission Altar that could open the Star Gate, it could still describe some small Transmission Array Platforms.

Three days passed, and Bai Yan wolf had meticulously carved over a hundred array platforms, then made careful corrections to avoid significant errors and being unable to return.

Afterward, they used the Transmission Array Platform to traverse to nearby planets to find materials to build the Transmission Altar.

At this time, Ye Fan’s Dragon Seeking Skill came into play—his eyes shot out two Dragon-shaped Divine Lights, stirring the primordial elements of the Ancient Star, and they found some materials for building the altar, but it was far from enough.

The altar that could open the Star Gate for ultra-long-distance teleportation was built using Eight-colored Elemental Stones, capable of communicating with the universe’s primordial forces.

Ye Fan’s Li Huo Essence Jade was one of them, however, it was much more precious than elemental stones, unless absolutely necessary, Ye Fan would never use it.

Since obtaining the Li Huo Essence Jade, he had been nurturing it in his Dantian, constantly grasping the Secret Technique of the Fire Element and the Primordial Law.

As his understanding deepened, the Fire Element Rune in his Eight Phase World became brighter, emitting a Crimson Divine Light.

However, compared to the Thunder Element Rune’s blazing light, it was still far inferior.

Ye Fan was aware that he hadn’t completely comprehended the Primordial and Law of the Fire Element, or else it would shine just like the Thunder Element Rune.

After a difficult search across several Ancient Stars, Ye Fan almost fully exerted his Dragon Seeking Skill, finally managing to gather enough materials for building the Transmission Altar, then returned to that Ancient Star to start constructing the altar.

Building the altar wasn’t difficult; Ye Fan could handle it himself, but he was inexperienced in describing the Array Patterns on the altar, so he had to leave it to Bai Yan wolf to complete.

However, before building the altar, he did a lot of work, gathering the remaining few Dragon Veins on this Ancient Star using Supreme Mysterious Skill, building the altar at the leader’s position, and inscribing countless Dragon Seeking Array Patterns on the ground to harness the Earth Dragon Vein’s energy for the altar.

He wasn’t skilled at other array patterns, but he had comprehended those recorded in the Dragon Seeking Skill, so he wasn’t completely ignorant about array patterns.

Bai Yan wolf crouched on the Array Platform, its big paws busily inscribing one array pattern after another from its claws, exhausted with its tongue hanging long, sweat covering its forehead.

While inscribing array patterns that open the Star Gate, it didn’t dare be careless at all, as it concerned its own life.

Five hours later, Bai Yan wolf was nearly collapsed on the altar, finally completing the final checks and corrections.

After drinking two large mouths of Divine Spring, it gradually recovered, vigorous energy pierced the sky.

"Are you sure there won’t be too much deviation?"

Ye Fan confirmed several times, fearing it would be unreliable again and teleport into the vast cosmos, which could render him unable to return for life.

"Relax, it’s not just you; I will also ascend the altar with you. If lost, it would be together. When have you seen me set myself up?"

Bai Yan wolf stood on two legs, its big paws patting its chest confidently.

"That’s better, if lost, after the food is gone, I’ll eat you!" Ye Fan threatened and ascended the altar.

"Forgot to tell you, it requires blood to activate, otherwise it can’t be opened." Bai Yan wolf hesitantly walked over and said.

"I@!#%$&*..."

Ye Fan nearly cursed, this guy must have done it intentionally, requiring a blood sacrifice for activation, which was very similar to the altar deep in the Imperial Academy Trial Ground where they were previously lost.

No choice, Bai Yan wolf’s ability was at this level, even if he scolded it, it was useless; he could only accept it, slicing his wrist to spill golden blood.

Bai Yan wolf didn’t deceive him, also spraying silver Essence Blood, mixed with Ye Fan’s golden blood, sprinkled on the altar.

"Buzz!"

The blood roamed within the dragon-like array patterns, suddenly emitting light, constructing a Star Gate, shimmering with dazzling starlight.

Ye Fan stepped forward, entered the Star Gate with Bai Yan wolf, and once again traversed the Void!
