"Where?" Zhuge Fan was confused.
"Return to the spiritual civilization first, then make a trip to Earth," Ye Chen said.
"Earth?"
Zhuge Fan's eyes suddenly lit up. He turned to look at Moon Spirit and said happily, "Your Majesty, the place recorded on the Divine Fire Order is Earth. It's rare for my brother to return to Earth. Why don't we travel together? That way, we'll have one more helper!"
Moon Spirit couldn't help feeling shocked when she saw Ye Chen reveal such an important secret without any hesitation. She then glanced at Ye Chen and saw that he only frowned and didn't ask any questions. Only then did she relax slightly.
She pondered for a moment and thought of the terrifying strength Ye Chen had revealed. She nodded and said, "That's good. But I don't know …"
Zhuge Fan quickly turned around and looked at Ye Chen excitedly. "Big Brother Ye, when we return to Earth, can you accompany us to a place? It's more dangerous there, but there are treasures there!"
Ye Chen touched his nose and saw Moon Spirit's bitter smile from the corner of his eyes. He patted Zhuge Fan's shoulder and smiled. "No problem."
Moon Spirit looked at Zhuge Fan helplessly. It was the first time she realized that he was so unreliable. However, when she thought of his past behavior, she knew that he was an extremely cautious person. She could see the deep friendship between the two. She nodded lightly. "Since that's the case, you can rest here for a while. I'll move everyone in the capital into my independent universe."
After she left, Ye Chen and Zhuge Fan sat down in the palace. Many maids listened to the housekeeper and wanted to pour tea for them. However, Zhuge Fan waved his hand and said, "All of you can leave."
He then smiled at Ye Chen and moved his fingers. The tea and fruit juice in the palace flew over automatically. One by one, the wine jugs and fruit plates floated over from the control cabinet as if there was a pair of invisible hands holding them.
"Big Brother Ye, weren't you rumored to be dead? How did you come back to life?" Zhuge Fan asked curiously.
Ye Chen smiled. "Many things seem to be coincidences, but they are actually inevitable. Many times, it seems that death is certain, but it is actually an opportunity for rebirth. I was able to survive purely because of luck."
Zhuge Fan nodded thoughtfully. Although Ye Chen did not say it clearly, he could imagine that there must be many twists and turns in this matter, and it was definitely not something that could be explained in a few words.
Ye Chen smiled and looked at Zhuge Fan with a sigh. "It has only been a hundred years and you have grown from a Demigod to a half-step Epoch Realm expert. The difference between the two is like the difference between heaven and earth.
After so many years, you must have experienced many fortuitous encounters, right? "
"This is because I've awakened once. Although I haven't fully awakened, the trace of power that I've awakened has already improved my physique by leaps and bounds."
Zhuge Fan giggled, "If Big Brother Ye had awakened as well, I'm afraid you would be much more powerful now."
Ye Chen was not modest and only nodded. Suddenly, he asked, "The White Dragon and the others are in other places. Have you contacted them?"
"No." Zhuge Fan shook his head. "Ever since we came to the Divine Rock Empire, we have not contacted each other.
However, when we parted, we agreed that we would meet in the White Lotus Divine Prefecture two hundred years later and look for the Bai Clan to avenge you! "
Ye Chen let out a smile, "You guys are pretty daring, to agree to meet up in two hundred years to avenge me. Did you know that two hundred years would be enough for you to grow from a mere Half-God Realm cultivator to your current level?"
In the path of cultivation, two hundred years was like a snap of the finger. Time flew by quickly, and one would not feel anything. In just two hundred years, to be able to reach the Semi-God Realm from the Demigod Realm was already considered an extremely fast improvement.
"Because someone gave me advice."
Zhuge Fan chuckled. "When we parted, we were prepared to go back and cultivate. Whether it was ten thousand years or a million years, we wanted to become the strongest God Emperor!
However, on the way back, we met a mysterious person. It was an old man wearing a bamboo hat and walking in the rain. It just so happened that it was raining heavily that day. "
"Oh?" Ye Chen was surprised.
Zhuge Fan continued, "This heavy rain was nothing to us. We only needed to blow a breath to disperse the clouds and clear the sky after the rain. However, we were very tired from the journey that day, so we rested in the outskirts and stayed in my master's Divine Weapon, the Dragon King Palace.
At that time, we were chatting by the window of the attic when we saw the old man walking over from the forest. The rain had soaked his body, and his shoes were stepping in the mud. Even the bottom of his pants were covered in mud. "
"When Big Brother White Dragon saw him, he used some of his strength to support him.
However, something strange happened. "
Zhuge Fan's expression was a little stupefied, as if he had returned to the scene at that time. "When Big Brother White Dragon's strength reached the old man, it disappeared without a trace.
The old man raised his head and looked at us. Then, his body suddenly flashed and he appeared on the attic platform where we were standing. "
"I was very surprised at that time, so I asked him, 'Who are you?'
He did not answer, but only looked at Big Brother White Dragon. Then, he looked at Big Brother Yue Heng. Then, he saw me.
He looked around and suddenly nodded in satisfaction. He said, 'Not bad.' "
"Big Brother White Dragon was the most meticulous. Although he looked carefree and cheerful, he was observant and immediately realized that this old man was a mysterious expert. He was not someone we could deal with. Hence, he quickly smiled and said, 'Old man, I just wanted to smooth the mud for you so that you can walk more easily. I hope I won't anger you.' The old man smiled and said, 'This mud is created by the heavens and earth, why should I avoid it?
Otherwise, why would the ground be wet and become mud when it rains and thunders? Isn't it for us to step on? '"
"At that time, I felt that his words were very strange, but they also seemed to make sense. So, I did not say anything.
Later, Big Brother White Dragon and the old man chatted for a while. We were relieved when we realized that he did not have any ill intentions.
Before the old man left, he told us to gather in the White Lotus Divine Prefecture after two hundred years.
Big Brother White Dragon asked, 'How did you know that we would be separated and that we would be gathering?'
The old man said, 'If you want to take revenge, you only need to gather in the White Lotus Divine Prefecture after two hundred years. Also, you don't have to worry about how short two hundred years are, because many things can happen in these two hundred years.' After saying that, he left. "
Zhuge Fan finished in one breath and sighed. "Later, as my strength increased, every time I thought of this old man, I felt that I could not see through him at all. It was as if he knew everything like the back of his hand and could see through the heavens and earth."
Ye Chen was silent.
"Could it be …" He looked outside the palace, at the distant blue sky. "This old man is an envoy of the nine ancient gods?
Or is he the ruler of a large world? "
Gentle light shone in through the door. Snowy white petals fell from the snow trees, fluttering in the imperial city.
It seemed that two hundred years had passed since then.
…
A day later, the Moon Spirit Empress moved all of the powerful experts and clans in the imperial capital, as well as several generations of chief elders, as well as many major corporations and companies, into her own independent universe.
The entire bustling imperial city was gone. The majestic city walls were in ruins, and the wide streets were empty. It was dead silent.
Ye Chen and Zhuge Fan held Moon Spirit's hand and rushed toward Luo Tian Divine Prefecture.
Through Moon Spirit's intelligence system, Ye Chen had found out that the spiritual civilization's headquarters was in Luo Tian Divine Prefecture.
Luo Tian Divine Prefecture was one of the three thousand floating divine prefecture islands outside the ancient continent. Later, the experts of the spiritual civilization used great power to move it to the sky above the territory of the Yanshen Empire of the ancient continent, becoming a sky city.
The three of them rode on Moon Spirit's Heavenly Rock Sword. Like an aurora that broke through the void, they disappeared in a flash. Their flying speed was incomparable to that of light. After a few hours, they had arrived at the Yanshen Empire in the north from the Divine Rock Empire.
Most of the territory they passed through was covered in devastation. Mountains, rivers, seas, forests, cities, kingdoms … Everything had been destroyed by an enormous force, and huge holes had been trampled into the ground. It was as if they had been baptized by locusts.
The city walls were in ruins. Among the ruins, one could only see splashes of blood and messy corpses with broken limbs.
None of the corpses were intact.
Everyone's expression turned grim. The entire Primordial World was being invaded by a powerful force. Countless undead armies were coming back from the dead. It wouldn't be long before the Ten Great Shrines and Ten Great Empires above would be overthrown by the undead army!
This was simply an apocalyptic disaster!
However, no one could stop it with only one arm.
Soon, Ye Chen and the others entered the territory of the Yanshen Empire.
Ye Chen had a different feeling when he set foot in this country once again. Last time, he was forced to flee by the artifact spirit of the Yanshen Empire's national treasure, the Voidvoid Artifact. Now that he was back, there was no one who could stop him.
The territory of the Yanshen Empire was not damaged too badly. The thousands of vassal states around it formed a trend of mutual aid. The imperial capital in the center was still flourishing and there were no signs of damage.
The undead that crawled out of the imperial capital were wiped out by a large number of troops before they could stand firm.
Under Moon Spirit's lead, Ye Chen and Zhuge Fan rushed toward the imperial city in the center of the imperial capital.
The Luo Tian Divine Vessel where the spiritual civilization was located was suspended in the air above the imperial capital.
From afar …
The city of Imperial Capital was like a splendid treasure standing on the barren land. The man-made atmosphere was like a transparent air shield that enveloped the entire Imperial Capital, blooming with brilliant and translucent light. It was incompatible with the dark ground around it.
In the majestic imperial capital, a huge black object was suspended in the air. It was as still as a small island.
"That's it." Moon Spirit pointed.
Ye Chen's eyes flashed. "Let's go."
The few of them rushed toward the floating Luo Tian Divine Vessel and entered the man-made atmosphere of the Luo Tian Divine Region in the blink of an eye.
