Chapter 250: Chapter 224 Fifth Prince Yang Shen

A short while later, Ye Chen, disguised, entered the Royal Capital and met with Li Yun. He imparted more advanced Refining God Techniques and left behind some precious handwritten notes on Alchemy Medicine, causing Li Yun’s eyes to widen. They were all exceptional and priceless volumes, some of which even the Pill Hall of Tiandu Continent might not possess.

However, thinking about the mysterious Mr. Qian behind him, everything became clear.

And his proud disciples, Shuangshuang, had already left. According to Li Yun, they had gone to the Central Region to prepare for the Dragon Phoenix Alchemy Conference.

Ye Chen felt a bit embarrassed; he had nearly forgotten about this event, though he had promised Li Yun to take good care of Shuangshuang at the Dragon Phoenix Alchemy Conference.

After staying for half a day, Ye Chen left the Royal Capital, riding the Demon Flood Dragon soaring through the skies, rushing toward the Central Region, heading for Tiandu Academy.

During his journey, unlike when he was returning, Ye Chen did not ask Elder Yan to take action but instead sat cross-legged on the back of the Demon Flood Dragon, starting to introspect.

Around him, spheres of Divine Light bobbed up and down. They were all precious medicinal materials, some of them millennia old, taken directly from the hands of the Hongtian Great Saint.

Originally, the medicinal materials Ye Chen had given to Hongtian Great Saint were a mixture for refining the Refining God Pill and the Ten Thousand Clearing Pill. Hence, Hongtian Great Saint had long since collected all the ingredients necessary for the "Refining God Pill," all of which were of the highest quality, perfect for concocting an extraordinary Refining God Pill.

However, Ye Chen had not immediately started making the Refining God Pill because his Cultivation was somewhat too weak to produce the most perfect Refining God Pill, which would be flawed, even if only slightly, potentially fatal for the effectiveness of the entire pill.

He needed to elevate his Cultivation to at least the level of Martial God Peak to confidently craft a superb Refining God Pill.

As for why he did not borrow Elder Yan’s power, ultimately, it was not his own power and could not be used most perfectly and precisely, prone to imperfections. Furthermore, Elder Yan was not skilled in Alchemy, so all this was temporarily set aside.

After stowing all the materials, Ye Chen began to ponder over his Daoist practices.

In fact, the way Ye Chen practiced was simple, following the path of his previous life, focusing initially on the Physical Body, using Daoism as a foundation, until his Daoism became strong at the later stages, advancing in tandem with Body Refinement.

Because he always believed that having a powerful physical body was the real invincibility, one force could break all laws, Golden Body eternally immortal.

But this also made him capable of confronting a Super Martial God level in close combat, powerful and unmatched, but his current Mana Cultivation remained at the Innate Peak, severely biased towards Body Refinement.

Naturally, his true realm was already high enough, just lacking in energy, essentially all diverted to Body Refinement, leading to an inability to elevate his Daoist Cultivation.

Perhaps it seemed alright for now, but once he faced a real expert, trouble would arise. Daoism had become his weakness and would also become an invisible shackle on him, restricting his future path to invincibility.

Clearly, this was because his physical body was not truly invincible yet, fearless of everything.

Ye Chen painstakingly pondered this path of Cultivation, silent day and night, even Elder Yan did not disturb.

Finally, after a day and a night of contemplation, Ye Chen felt it necessary to start enhancing his Daoist Cultivation, to balance his Daoism and Physical Body through dual cultivation, truly becoming invincible in both form and spirit rather than being narrowly focused on one aspect.

Whether it was Body Refinement or Daoism, perfecting either would lead to invincibility, leading to the same goal, though the paths differed. Perhaps pursuing both might yield unexpectedly astonishing results.

Tiandu Continent was vast and boundless, spanning tens of millions of miles, an incredibly vast distance. Dust floated as the Demon Flood Dragon flew high in the Heavenly Dome, passing through numerous Kingdoms and regions including forests, deserts, inner seas, ancient cities, rapidly covering tens of thousands of miles a day.

During his journey, Ye Chen chose to fly in regions remote from those Kingdom capitals to avoid being sensed by some powerful beings, which might lead to unnecessary troubles.

Eight days later, Ye Chen entered a vast and wild mountain forest, stretching thousands of miles, filled with a dense wilderness aura, an undisturbed Ancient Forest, inhabited by many Demon Beasts, including Great Demons of the Martial God Realm.

There were no dense dynastic lands here, but the nature’s spiritual energy was even more abundant and rich, palpable from afar.

This felt exactly the same as what Ye Chen had experienced half a month ago; he knew he had arrived in the Central Region, a realm divided and ruled by the Three Great Empires, a grand Academy, and the Martial God Temple.

As time passed, more towns appeared on the land, growing larger in scale, the smallest being the size of the expanded Luofeng City, and certain large ancient cities could rival the Royal Capitals of Kingdoms like Xiafeng Country, inhabited by populations of millions, with strong auras pervading, all showcasing the strength of this Central Region, far surpassing other regions.

Ye Chen checked the map and realized he had stepped into the territory of the Tianqi Empire, and couldn’t help but touch his nose.

Because he bore a grudge against the Tianqi Empire, the first Prince he slew on the Trial Road was Eighth Prince Yangg Jun. Later, he even killed other princes and princesses, sparing only the Sixth Princess Yangg Miaoxue who had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with him. Even Young Master Yangg Shaoqi had half of his cultivation eradicated, and both his arms were severed.

Even the Ancient Hero Yangg Wushuang had once been exiled by him.

One could say that he had thoroughly offended the younger generation of this Super Empire that ruled the world. He somewhat doubted whether someone would recognize him in this vast land and come to assassinate him.

Boom—

A powerful fluctuation suddenly erupted ahead, dissipating the clouds. It was a disturbance from the Martial God Realm; there were Martial Gods clashing and colliding.

"Yangg Shen, you are despicable. That’s the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures I found. Give them back to me now!"

"Hmph, whoever gets them first owns them. There’s no such rule as whoever finds them first keeps them."

Far away, two figures were continuously colliding in the void. Pulses of Heavenly Earth Power were summoned, causing a massive collision that completely dispersed the clouds in the area and created a vacuum.

If this had been on the ground, it likely would have shattered mountains within tens of miles.

Two Martial Gods were dueling—among them, a burly and tall robust man wielded a massive black hammer as large as a water jar. He slammed it down like a small mountain and bellowed, "Yangg Shen, for a noble Fifth Prince, you stoop so low. This utterly disgraces the dignity of the Tianqi royal family."

The other figure, dressed in regal clothes, exuding luxury without losing dignity, was the Fifth Prince of the Tianqi Empire, Yangg Shen. He held a Divine Fruit with five-colored swirls, and exuberant Spiritual Energy flowed from it, a truly exceptional Heavenly Material and Earth Treasure.

Facing the burly man’s hammer attack, the Fifth Prince deftly dodged the blow, retreating a great distance, and sneered, "I say, Liang Shi, if I call you a rock, you truly are one. The treasure goes to whoever obtains it first. Obviously, I got it first, so what does that have to do with you?"

"Despicable, it’s clear I got it first. You attacked from behind and snatched it, yet you have the audacity to say this." Liang Shi was furious. He appeared quite straightforward and honest, just as he looked, oppressed by Fifth Prince Yangg Shen.

At that moment, he continuously swung his large black hammer, creating a rumbling pressure that seemed to collapse the entire void.

"Hmph, even if that’s the case, I got it now, and if you want to snatch it back, do so with your true skills." Fifth Prince Yangg Shen sneered and with a step into the void, he transformed into a beam of light and shot forth. Liang Shi bellowed and pursued him, clearly unwilling to give up.

"This piece of stinking rock dares to follow!" The Fifth Prince glanced back, showing displeasure on his face, yet he didn’t want to tangle with the opponent, fully aware of the dirty rock’s might, knowing it wouldn’t be easy to shake him off.

He accelerated again, darting out like lightning to escape Liang Shi’s persistence. However, just then, he saw everything darken before a monstrous shadow flashed, swinging a three-foot green blade that slashed a fierce beam of sword light across: "Back off, don’t block my way!"

The monstrous shadow vibrated abruptly, directly shattering the sword light. It was a massive Demon Flood Dragon coiling in the air, stabilizing itself, its cold eyes targeting the attacking Fifth Prince Yangg Shen. It growled lowly, emitting a terrifying Demon Power.

"Is this... a Demon Flood Dragon!?" Yangg Shen was taken aback, having not expected to encounter such a creature. This was an Exotic Beast with True Dragon Blood flowing through it, tremendously powerful, typically a headache even for Super Martial Gods. But unexpectedly, he had run into it.

But then, something came to his mind, and looking up, he saw a young figure standing alone atop the Demon Flood Dragon, with disheveled black hair and a face carrying a piercing aura.

"Ye Chen!?"

Seeing the youth, Yangg Shen was utterly stunned, never expecting to encounter this Young Great Demon King from the Trial Road here in the lands of the Tianqi Empire.

Yet the next moment, his expression relaxed, for he knew well that the other possessed Dao Blood, a supreme Divine Item, and he felt a surge of greed as he licked his lips.

Boom—

Liang Shi was still in pursuit from behind, but Yangg Shen clearly did not want to entangle with him. He casually tossed the Five-colored Divine Fruit to him, saying, "Liang Shi, here’s the Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure you wanted. I don’t wish to involve myself further with you. Go away."

Liang Shi looked at Yangg Shen in surprise, clearly not expecting him to let go so suddenly, but caught it reflexively and checked it with his Divine Sense. Finding nothing amiss, he sighed in relief. Raising his head, he then noticed the Demon Flood Dragon coiling in front of him, its mighty Demon Power causing him to tremble. What surprised him even more was the youth riding the Demon Flood Dragon appeared so young.

Who exactly is this formidable figure?

But obviously, he did not wish to get involved further and quickly departed.

At this moment, Fifth Prince Yangg Shen addressed the youth, "So, you are Ye Chen?"
