Eternal Holy Emperor

After completing all this, Ye Chen looked at his apprentice Yanz Wushuang, with whom he had confirmed the master-apprentice relationship not long ago, and said gently, "Now as your mentor, I have difficulties protecting myself on the Jiuyan Emperor Star, and deep in the starry sky, there are things I must attend to, so I can’t watch over your growth, nor can I provide you with a Protector. You’ll have to manage on your own."

Although he had several enslaved captives on him, ranging from Heavenly Kings to Great Powers, none were creatures of the Jiuyan Emperor Star. Due to the absolute ruling status of the Jiuyan Emperor Clan, they could easily be identified, hence he could not bestow them upon Yanz Wushuang.

"I understand, Master." Yanz Wushuang replied.

"Alright, it’s time for me to leave and not linger any longer, or it will cause you significant trouble." As Ye Chen waved his sleeve, his whole being gradually became faint and eventually disappeared. The space seal was lifted, leaving only one sentence echoing in Yanz Wushuang’s mind: "One day, when you’re strong enough, unite the Emperor Clan, then step out into the starry sky to find me. You know my name——"

"Combat Saint King!"

With this word falling, Ye Chen slowly began to vanish, and it’s unknown how many years it would be before meeting again.

But with this grant, Ye Chen didn’t know what kind of extraordinary figure it would produce in the future, but he was very much looking forward to the arrival of this apprentice in the future. He might need the help of this apprentice in the bloodstained future.

Prince of Xi Country, Yanz Wushuang, immediately knelt down, three bows and nine kowtows, respectfully saying, "Farewell, Master. One day when I have achieved success in my cultivation, I shall enter the starry sky to find you, Master!"

"Till we meet again!"

Ye Chen’s figure completely vanished, departing from the front of the Prince of Xi Country.

Shortly after, the voice from the command tower also startled many generals, even the ancestor level Saint who was there to guard the place was alarmed, appearing with a swipe, wanting to inquire about what exactly had happened.

However, the moment they appeared, they discovered that the Prince of Xi Country had undergone tremendous changes. Although his appearance hadn’t changed, he possessed more divine presence, his eyes sparkling with power, his entire being seemed transformed, increasingly appearing to have an innate majesty, making people involuntarily bow down and submit, as though he was a born king, every frown and smile was imbued with supreme character, even the ancestor level Saint felt an innate reverence and submission.

Yet a moment ago, the Crown Prince wasn’t like this at all, as if only an unknown number of moments had passed, he underwent an astonishing inner and outer transformation.

Moreover, one could sense that the Crown Prince’s cultivation was much stronger, leaping two realms in advancement, reaching the Divinity Transformation Third Layer Heaven, which was very remarkable.

"This is——"

From the Saint ancestor to the demigod realm commander, all were stunned by the changes in the Crown Prince.

"Issue orders to halt the eighteen national-level warships and six hundred city-level warships to guard the Jiangyan Domain, additionally deploy Mining Giant Beasts to gather Spirit Veins, Ancient Saint Yun Cang, please remain in Jiangyan Domain to continue guarding, intimidating Hongy Country, and prevent them from mounting a comeback."

"The rest, follow me back to the country!"

The Prince of Xi Country spoke, yet his expression was stern, and the words he spoke were irrefutable, even the Holy Elder Yun Cang, although being a Saint of a country, had no intention of refuting, naturally adhering from the heart to the orders of Yanz Wushuang, who was merely a Prince with Divinity Transformation Third Layer Heaven strength.

Because at this moment, the Prince of Xi Country gave him a feeling of allegiance from the depths of the soul.

"I shall obey the Crown Prince’s command!"

Everyone else even more strictly followed the Crown Prince’s orders, fifteen national-level warships and over a hundred city-level warships grandly returned to the country.

And the Prince of Xi Country, Yanz Wushuang, was just about to begin his first step, persuading to give up the throne, ascending as king, becoming the Emperor of Xi Country, working hard for a future unification of Jiuyan Emperor Star, harvesting the power of faith across generations.

And at this moment, Ye Chen had long left the Jiangyan Domain.

This time coming to the Jiuyan Emperor Clan, revenge was the primary purpose, he emptied several Emperor’s hidden worlds, slaughtered numerous important figures of the Jiuyan Emperor Clan, even imprisoned Jiuyan Clan Leader Yanh Tiangod, certainly delivering a major blow to the Jiuyan Emperor Clan.

But now, even better, he received an apprentice, which counts as an important foreshadowing left on the Jiuyan Emperor Star.

He very much anticipated that Yanz Wushuang would one day achieve the goals, even unifying the entire Jiuyan Emperor Clan, and this Immortal Imperial Family would also become his resource, rather than his current enemy.

Only at the moment, Ye Chen himself was trapped on the Jiuyan Emperor Star, and able to feel there in the Outer Domain starry sky of Jiuyan Emperor Star, where a terrifying boundless presence resides, that is the Eternal Sword God, always entrenched guarding, overlooking the entire Jiuyan Emperor Star, and monitoring Ye Chen.

And just these few days, he could sense many strong figures emerging on the Jiuyan Continent, all of whom were mighty figures from the Jiuyan Emperor Clan, a few more Great Powers than before.

Clearly, these are returning strong figures from external fronts, initially intending to pursue the Combat Saint King, but now that they’ve learned of his presence within Jiuyan Emperor Star, they naturally returned one by one.

However, there were no other external strong figures, for news of the Combat Saint King being on the Jiuyan Emperor Star was completely sealed off.

Firstly, Jiuyan Emperor Clan wants to monopolize the benefits, hence won’t divulge to others.

Secondly, the Combat Saint King’s solo infiltration into the Emperor Clan, emptying numerous Emperor’s hidden worlds, capturing the Jiuyan Clan Leader, assassinating many Emperor Clan strong figures, bringing great shame to the Jiuyan Emperor Clan, a disgrace not to be shared, naturally wouldn’t be publicized.

The Jiuyan Emperor Clan also employed enormous force, searching for signs of the Combat Saint King across the whole Jiuyan Emperor Star, daily massive Divine Thoughts sweeping over the entire Emperor Star, aiming to dig up Ye Chen thoroughly.

Unfortunately, Ye Chen, possessing the Chaos Sacred Body, equipped with the Supreme Profound Skill capable of stealing heaven and substituting earth, even if an Ancient Monarch took action personally, they’d struggle to find his true whereabouts.

Ye Chen wasn’t anxious, on the contrary, he felt that over these years, he mostly utilized learned Divine Power Secret Techniques, while those he created, counting them yields only a few kinds. Feeling perpetually constrained, which would limit his Dao breakthrough.

Precisely because of this, Ye Chen planned to use this time to focus on creating his own Divine Power Secret Techniques, freeing himself from the dependency on various foreign Divine Power Spells, allowing his Dao to truly proceed on the invincible path.

On this day, Ye Chen continued to delve into the Spirit Heaven Sea Domain, the endless storm continuing its rotation, he immersed in the depths, even reaching the interior of the Jiuyan Emperor Star, where boundless lava surged, filled with heat.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged above the magma ocean, before his eyes appeared a chaos tripod, from which emerged layers of Chaos Ancient Energy, cascading down, each strand capable of crushing mountains and rivers, now countless layers unknown how many strands, sufficient to shatter stars.

He intended to enlighten the Dao here, certifying his path of this world, exploring for the invincible fruit.
