Feeling the gazes from all sides, the crowd of Zhundi all coughed dryly. Undeniably, that outburst was indeed a bit unseemly.
But this couldn't be blamed on them. After all, Ming Jie was so terrifying that such secrets would make anyone swear.
"Still a bit short of Ming Di," Ye Chen muttered to himself.
He still remembered the scene in Ming Jie where Ming Di and Tian Mo Di hurled insults at each other. Those two supreme beings had completely abandoned all dignity.
That lawless spectacle, he had imprinted it himself. If it were made public, this place would surely become even more chaotic.
"Since Di Huang senior is in Ming Jie, why doesn't he return to the various heavens?" After the awkwardness, the crowd of Zhundi surrounded Ye Chen again.
"Forcibly opening the passage between the underworld and the various heavens would disrupt the balance of Ming Jie," Ye Chen said. "Even a supreme being wouldn't dare to take that risk."
As soon as he spoke, all the Zhundi frowned. Ye Chen's words were full of deeper meaning—Ming Jie must be hiding some secrets.
In other words, Ming Jie was also under guard, much like Da Chu. Disturbing the established order would bring about a catastrophic disaster.
"What a pity," Chu Huang sighed. "If Di Huang were here to hold the fort, the various heavens wouldn't fear the Tian Mo, nor would they be bullied by the Hong Huang."
"Di Huang senior has passed on the Emperor's Path to the Underworld to me," Ye Chen smiled. "Once my cultivation reaches its peak, I can defy the heavens and summon him back."
"The Emperor's Path to the Underworld?" Everyone was astonished. That was the supreme immortal technique of the Tong Ling spiritual domain, which even they didn't know.
With their level of insight and wisdom, the Zhundi could tell that Ye Chen's trip to the underworld had been an absolute stroke of fortune and opportunity.
Not to mention the Emperor's Path to the Underworld, just Ye Chen's bloodline of the Huang Gu Sheng Ti was on a completely different level from his previous life—it wasn't even in the same category.
It was just as Ren Wang had said back then: true nirvana was either death or reincarnation, and Ye Chen was the best proof of that.
"There are many other matters to discuss. I'll explain them in detail to all you seniors once we return to Da Chu," Ye Chen smiled. This wasn't the place for a long conversation.
"If the cultivators of Da Chu knew you were alive, they would surely be overjoyed," the Zhundi all laughed, still unable to suppress their excited emotions.
"I can't wait," Ye Chen took a deep breath, his heart pounding. He'd been away for so long; he was homesick.
"Zhan Wang is unbeatable in the world, beating Qiong Qi until it turns into a dog." As everyone exchanged words, the wolf howls erupted again.
After that brief interlude, the gazes of the surrounding cultivators shifted back to the battle between Zhan Wang and Qiong Qi.
In the vast sky, a sea of blood surged. Qiong Qi was no longer in human form, its body drenched in fresh blood, with muscles and bones exposed in many places, its hair disheveled. Its once dominant and powerful body was now badly damaged.
A Zhundi bearing an imperial weapon was actually beaten to such a miserable state. Just looking at it was shocking.
In contrast, Zhan Wang's battle intent soared to the heavens, his path of war intertwined with imperial might, outlining a dazzling golden immortal domain.
He stood within it like a war god conquering all domains, as unyielding as a mountain, impossible to topple by any force.
"You deserve to die," Qiong Qi Zhundi roared, swinging the imperial weapon war halberd and carving out an immortal river that slashed toward Zhan Wang.
"You deserve it even more," Zhan Wang snorted coldly, overwhelmingly powerful. He fused numerous secret techniques into his battle axe, cleaving the immortal river in one strike.
Qiong Qi Zhundi spat blood and was sent flying back with each step, causing the void to explode under his feet. The divine light on his imperial weapon dimmed, no match for the might of the Pangu Axe.
Before he could stop, Zhan Wang was upon him again, reigning supreme from the nine heavens and chopping down with an axe that carried world-ending power.
Seeing this, Qiong Qi gritted his teeth and halted abruptly, gripping the war halberd with both hands and raising it high to block the battle axe.
Under the watchful eyes of all, the Pangu battle axe struck Qiong Qi's war halberd, producing a clang and sparking brilliant flames.
The two ultimate imperial weapons collided, weaving a halo of imperial dao that spread unrestricted in all directions. Everywhere it passed, space shattered inch by inch, and the light of doomsday loomed silent and desolate.
At this sight, the Zhundi of the various heavens all sacrificed their imperial weapons to stabilize the world's order and protect the living beings.
On the Hong Huang side, they weren't idle either. Their imperial weapons trembled, their imperial dao immortal light dazzling as they formed a solid barrier.
In this peak clash, Qiong Qi spat blood again and knelt with a bang in the void, his arms exploding and scattering blood and bones.
"No pressure," Ye Chen laughed. His Wheel of Reincarnation saw it clearly: both at the peak of Zhundi, Qiong Qi and Zhan Wang weren't on the same level of combat power. Qiong Qi couldn't withstand Zhan Wang's assaults.
"Do you still remember me?" As Ye Chen laughed, a female voice sounded behind him, light and graceful, yet tinged with a hint of choked emotion.
Ye Chen instinctively turned around and saw a peerless woman standing there elegantly, her eyes misty with tears, her gaze sorrowful.
She was, without a doubt, Bei Sheng. Her beautiful eyes were blurred by tears, making her seem like a delicate woman who evoked pity.
"Long time no see," Ye Chen said with an awkward laugh, his smile a bit embarrassed as he recalled the ancient ruins years ago, where he had mistaken her for a male cultivator and stripped her clothes completely.
For that, he had been chased all over the ruins, causing a huge uproar that everyone in Xuan Huang knew about.
Seeing Ye Chen's awkward smile, a blush flashed across Bei Sheng's stunning face. Women were still shy, after all.
It was that twist of fate that had melted her heart, leading her to develop feelings for this shameless treasure.
"What happened back then was a misunderstanding," Ye Chen said with a sheepish smile. The mighty Huang Gu Sheng Ti, who had slain three great emperors, still couldn't handle situations like this.
"Is a simple misunderstanding enough?" Bei Sheng wiped away her tears and glared at him fiercely, masking her inner turmoil.
"How about I strip naked and let you take a look?" Ye Chen suggested tentatively. His words made the Zhundi of Da Chu turn their heads, giving him a meaningful look. He really knew how to handle things.
"Who wants to look at you?" Bei Sheng's beautiful eyes flashed with anger. Ye Chen's shamelessness was just as it had been in his previous life.
"Are we interrupting? Did we come too early and disturb this little couple's flirting?" A hoarse sigh suddenly rang out. Xiao Yuan Huang and Long Jie had arrived. The hoarseness was from shouting too much earlier and straining their throats.
"You're asking for a beating again," Bei Sheng said, stepping forward and kicking him. The blush that had just faded crept back onto her cheeks.
"He doesn't want you, but I do," Kui Niu said, tossing his head and smoothing his hair. "My skills in bed aren't bad either."
"Get lost," Bei Sheng snapped, slapping him across the face. The reincarnated Kui Niu nearly got sent back to rebirth, landing flat on his back in a perfect spread-eagle on the battle platform.
"Good brother," Xiao Yuan Huang said, tears in his eyes, as he casually stepped on Kui Niu to reach Ye Chen and gave him a solid punch.
"Don't get sentimental; it's easy to get beaten," Ye Chen said with a pout. He'd shed enough tears and didn't want to mess around with this monkey.
"If not sentimental, then what?" Xiao Yuan Huang leaned in, circling around Ye Chen. Whenever he saw something valuable, he'd reach out and take it, not leaving a single thing.
Ye Chen's face darkened. After a full reincarnation, seeing this guy still made his hands itch to beat him to death.
"Don't worry about the details," Long Jie said, also stepping on Kui Niu to come over. He draped an arm over Ye Chen's shoulder and winked. "Find some time, and let's become sworn brothers!"
"You're just after my blood, aren't you?" Ye Chen said, amused.
"Nonsense, our bond is deep—who said anything about blood?" Wu Zu Shen Zi joined in, flanking Ye Chen with Long Jie on the other side. They rubbed their hands together, their eyes gleaming.
"Speaking of bonds, I almost forgot the treasures I brought for you brothers," Ye Chen said, pulling out a storage bag and handing out packages one by one.
At the mention of treasures, their eyes lit up, and they chuckled while rubbing their hands. "How could we accept this?"
"These are all good stuff, and I'm the only one who has them," Ye Chen said cheerfully, hugging a storage bag and distributing them one by one.
These treasures of his were certainly substantial. What he called treasures were actually packets of powdered substances.
This wasn't ordinary powder; it was a carefully concocted mix of special products from Da Chu and Ming Jie.
As a skilled alchemist, his creations weren't low-grade—even a Da Sheng would go mad from it.
The Zhundi of Da Chu once again scrutinized Ye Chen. As people of Da Chu, they didn't know what these special products were.
They still remembered the scene years ago when Ye Chen brought Red Dust Snow back to Tian Xuan Gate—it was incredibly seductive, all thanks to this guy's antics of drugging his wife, a one-of-a-kind in the world.
"Treasures, all treasures. Eat them, and there are more," Ye Chen said, ignoring the crowd's gazes and shamelessly continuing to hand them out.
"This is great," they laughed, delighted and bouncing around. Treasures from the Huang Gu Sheng Ti were absolutely top-notch.
"Why not for us?" The Gu Zu Shen Nu, Ling Zu Shen Nu, and Jiu Xian little girl all pouted.
"You all can have something else," Ye Chen coughed, taking out another storage bag and giving one to each.
Inside were real treasures, genuine ones.
When giving gifts, you had to consider the recipient. For beasts like Xiao Yuan Huang, special products were fine, but for these great beauties, you couldn't just hand out anything random, or it would cause chaos in the world.
