Chapter 102 Are you here to question me?
Before the first rays of sunlight in the morning spread across the land, a shocking piece of news swept across the entire city of Gods like a violent storm. The Saint Master of the Jiang Family personally brought a jaw-dropping amount of ten million jin of Source to the city of Gods, and piled this astonishing treasure in the Dragon Transformation Pond.
Even in the daylight, the place where the Dragon Pond was located was still ablaze with aura, divine light blocking out the sun, and dazzling, like a fairyland descending to the earth. The rich spiritual energy was like a trickle, almost turning into a substantial liquid, filling the entire city of gods, making people feel an unprecedented shock and amazement.
Tens of millions of Jin Yuan were really brought here, which was undoubtedly a major event that shook the world. For a time, people in the city of gods were talking about it, and the focus of the heated discussion was on the young man named Ye Fan.
Now, there is only one topic in the City of Gods, and that is whether the Ancient Holy Body can break the curse and rush into the Four Poles Secret Realm. Everyone is talking about it.
Now, all Ye Fan needs is the return of the God King, and he can enter the Dragon Pool and reach the Four Extremes Realm!
In the next few days, all the major sects in the entire Eastern Wilderness were paying close attention, and even the Saint Lord-level figures were no exception, because this matter was of great importance.
The perfected ancient holy body is almost comparable to the great emperor. What does this mean?
Imagine, in this era without an emperor, what kind of shock and change will the appearance of a great ancient saint bring? It will mean being invincible in the world, and no one can match it. Such an existence will break all existing patterns and lead the East Wilderness into a brand new era.
At the moment, Ye Fan has absolutely attracted the attention of all the cultivators in Eastern Wilderness. Everyone is paying attention, and everyone is waiting for the outcome, waiting for the peerless God King to return and preside over all this.
The scale and influence of this turmoil far exceeded people's expectations, and even spread to the distant Zhongzhou, attracting widespread attention from various schools of thought. They sent envoys to watch the ceremony, wanting to witness with their own eyes whether this holy body could break the thousand-year curse and open a new chapter in the post-ancient era.
"Little Ye Zi, are you stressed? The whole world is attracting attention!" Tu Fei exclaimed.
"Of course there is pressure." Ye Fan took a deep breath and thought, "If the world changes, even if I have tens of millions of pounds of energy, it probably won't be enough for me to squander."
However, when Ye Fan thought of Fairy Zixia's firm belief in him, an inexplicable power surged in his heart. "If the heaven doesn't allow me, I will defy the heaven!" He whispered to himself, with a firm light in his eyes, "If I really become the emperor of heaven in the future, I will share the prosperity and glory of this world with you."
In the following days, many people from Zhongzhou did flock to the Holy City. They came from various sects, all to see the Holy Body that was about to impact the Four Extremes Secret Realm. The Holy Body was praised as invincible in the world, and could even compete with the Great Emperor. Such an existence naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
During these few days, Ye Fan was overwhelmed with invitations from various forces and attended banquets frequently. Zixia, Heihuang and others followed him along the way to eat and drink for free.
When they walked out of Lingtian Pavilion, they ran into a young man with extraordinary temperament - Xia Jiuyou. He was only thirteen or fourteen years old, but he already showed an extraordinary temperament. His white clothes were whiter than snow, and his sleeves fluttered, like a banished immortal. His hair was black and shiny, his skin was white, his eyes were deep like black gemstones, his lips were red and his teeth were white. His appearance was so handsome that even women would be jealous.
Xia Jiuyou looked directly at Ye Fan and said firmly, "I will wait for you to come up in the Four Extremes Secret Realm. The God King said that by then, the younger generation will be able to fight you to the death. If I kill you again, the God King will have nothing to say."
Ye Fan just smiled faintly when he heard this, and he was not angry. He bowed and said, "Thank you for your good words. I hope I can break the curse as soon as possible and advance to the Four Extremes Secret Realm. After all, this is also a person who sincerely wishes him well.
"Are you a young boy or a little girl?" The Black Emperor reeked of alcohol and had not sobered up for the past few days, speaking without restraint.
Xia Jiuyou snorted coldly, stretched out a snow-white hand, grabbed the big black dog, and tried to imprison it.
"Woof!" The big black dog's shiny black hair all stood up. It sensed danger and opened its mouth to bite.
"Buzz!"
The void trembled, and a mysterious ancient monument appeared, sticking to Xia Jiuyou's fingertips and suppressing the Black Emperor.
"when……"
The Black Emperor opened his mouth and spit out a huge bell, which blocked the ancient stele with the Dao patterns emerging on it. It emitted a long and trembling sound that spread for dozens of miles and alarmed many cultivators.
Xia Jiuyou is undoubtedly a genius, his talent is so outstanding that it is rare in ancient times. Although he is young, he has already ranked among the top of the younger generation, and his strength is jaw-dropping.
The Black Emperor was knocked flying, but he was not injured. He had strong bones and muscles and he quickly got up, and he was sober now.
"Are you a young boy or a little girl?" Hei Huang was not angry. He persisted and kept asking this question, his mouth full of alcohol.
"You evil dog, I'm going to skin you alive!" Xia Jiuyou was furious.
Ye Fan strode forward, looked at Xia Jiuyou calmly, and said: "You want to fight with me? Well, wait for a few days. If I enter the Four Extremes, the first battle will be with you!"
Xia Jiuyou heard this and a scornful smile appeared on his lips, just like he was in the past when he was young and successful, and he was arrogant. He did not take Ye Fan's words to heart, but just glanced at Ye Fan coldly, then turned and left.
There were many palaces standing on both sides of the street. Many cultivators appeared and stood under the moonlight to watch. They did not expect that at this sensitive moment, someone would dare to cause trouble for Ye Fan.
In the past few days, the forces trying to win over Ye Fan have increased, and even some saints and saintesses have come in person, putting aside past unhappiness and wanting to improve their relationship with Ye Fan. They know very well that if Ye Fan really succeeds in breaking through, the glorious era of the Great Saint Body will surely come, and Ye Fan's status will be unmatched by then.
At noon, Ye Fan, Li Heishui and others were invited to Huan Shifu, where they unexpectedly met an acquaintance, Yao Xi. She was still holy and charming, her eyes swept back and forth between Ye Fan and Jiang Pengpeng, and then she used her spiritual sense to send a message to Ye Fan: "Shameless little thief, you don't want the secret between you and Zixia to be known by Miss Jiang, right?"
Although Ye Fan was delighted in his heart, he pretended to be serious on the surface and responded: "What do you want to do? Don't force me to tell you about the bra!"
"Do you dare to say it?" Yao Xi asked back, with a hint of provocation in his tone.
Ye Fan smiled slightly and teased: "What do you want to do? Are you jealous of me having a loved one?"
Yao Xi snorted coldly and continued to transmit the message with her spiritual sense: "You'd better not break through the four extremes! Otherwise, just hope that the King of Gods can protect you for the rest of your life!" After that, she turned and left, leaving Ye Fan and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.
Zixia asked curiously, "What were you whispering about just now?"
Ye Fan couldn't help laughing, and sent a message to Zixia using his spiritual sense: "She is using you to threaten me."
Zixia understood instantly.
Seven days later, the peerless God King finally returned, and his figure appeared again in the God City, causing a sensation. During these seven days, he and Fairy Caiyun traveled together like a couple of gods and visited the lands they had set foot on together in the past, leaving behind beautiful legends.
When the news spread that the God King and Fairy Caiyun were returning to the God City, the whole ancient city was shaken. People were eagerly waiting for the moment when the Holy Body would break through. The eyes of the various holy places in the East Wasteland and even the entire land were focused here. People were looking forward to that exciting moment.
The four immortal dynasties of Zhongzhou and various forces such as various schools of thought and religions also sent people to watch the ceremony. The entire divine city gathered the world's affairs and attracted everyone's attention.
The peerless God King finally announced that he would let Ye Fan enter the Dragon Transformation Pool on the full moon night tomorrow to challenge the first difficulty of the Holy Body. When the news came out, the whole world was shocked, and people were talking about it. The day for the Holy Body to break through the barrier has finally arrived!
However, at this sensitive moment of public attention, Ye Fan was not completely immersed in the tension and expectation of the upcoming breakthrough. He quietly asked Zixia to help him collect the divine source stone skin, making backup preparations for possible unexpected situations. Because he had a hunch that this breakthrough would not be peaceful. One day, the Saint of Yaochi came to visit. She was tall and graceful, just like in the past, with fairy mist covering her body, like a fairy flower shaking in the snow, like a divine lotus touching the water, as if a proud girl from heaven had descended to the world.
She held an exquisite sandalwood box in her hand and gently handed it to Ye Fan, saying, "This is a gift from Yao Chi to help you succeed in your breakthrough."
In the past, the Holy Land of Yao Chi and the Yuan Tianshi family had a deep friendship, and now they treat Ye Fan with kindness, and even hope to invite him to Yao Chi to use the Six Seals of Immortals to deal with several precious stone kings.
"What is this?" Ye Fan opened the sandalwood box curiously and couldn't help but wonder.
"These are three leaves from the ancient tea tree of enlightenment." The Saint of Yao Chi explained softly.
Ye Fan was shocked when he heard this. The ancient tea tree in the Immortal Mountain, each leaf of which contained the veins of the Great Dao, was a rare treasure for a Saint Lord.
He was really surprised. Every year, only thirty leaves of the ancient tea tree could fly out of the Immortal Mountain, and they had long been coveted by many Saint Lord-level figures. In this vast Eastern Wilderness, this share was extremely rare.
Three leaves of the ancient tree of the Enlightenment Tea were a great gift for Ye Fan who was about to break through.
"I need no thanks for your kindness. If you need my help in the future, I will do my best to help you!" Ye Fan solemnly thanked the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.
He carefully observed the three leaves in the sandalwood box. Each leaf was unique and full of mystery and wonder.
The first leaf was shining with purple light and was diamond-shaped. There was a little dragon on it, which looked lifelike and was entangled with many mysterious Taoist patterns, as if it contained endless vitality and power.
The second leaf is bright red like blood, and fan-shaped, with a blurry human figure on it, sitting high in the ninth heaven, with mysterious yellow aura surrounding its body, and Taoist patterns covering it like clouds and smoke, revealing a supreme majesty and mystery.
The last leaf is as white as jade, crystal clear and round in shape. There is a yin-yang diagram on the leaf, with the positive pole embracing the negative pole and the negative pole embracing the positive pole, forming a wonderful balance. There are also stars, as if a starry sky is condensed in it, with innate veins interwoven, full of endless mystery.
It was the first time that Ye Fan saw the leaves of the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree. He was quite surprised. It was hard to imagine what kind of ancient tree it was that could grow such incredible leaves.
As soon as the big black dog saw the leaves of the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree, its saliva immediately flowed uncontrollably. It seemed enthusiastic but actually coveted them. It said with a playful smile: "Hey, I'll keep this for you."
Ye Fan glanced at it and chuckled, "Give it to you? That's like throwing meat buns at a dog - it's gone but never comes back."
"Woof!" The big black dog barked in dissatisfaction, but did not insist.
Ye Fan turned to Zixia and said, "Zixia, this piece of tea is for you."
Zixia shook her head slightly and declined, "You are about to break through, these will be more helpful to you."
Not long after, Tu Fei and Li Heishui brought news that several big bandits had come together to contribute a total of one million jin of source, which would be given to Ye Fan through their descendants.
This is undoubtedly another huge gift!
"Ye Fan, accept it with a clear conscience." Tu Fei patted Ye Fan on the shoulder, shook his head helplessly, and said: "These old men are as shrewd as ghosts. They want to invest in your future achievements."
·····
However, at this moment, An Miaoyi sent someone to deliver a jade box as a gift for him to break through the barrier.
"Another leaf of the ancient tea tree of enlightenment! And a note!" Ye Fan opened the jade box and saw a golden leaf lying quietly in it, shining brightly, like cast gold, with a refreshing fragrance. This leaf was painted with an exquisite picture of mountains and rivers, dotted with many innate patterns, and filled the room with fragrance.
As soon as he got the note, Tu Fei snatched it away curiously. He whispered in surprise: "What? An Miaoyi invited you?"
The full moon night is approaching, and An Miaoyi invites Ye Fan at this time, obviously wanting to win him over and make friends with him at the critical moment.
"Why is it unusual?" Tu Fei asked curiously.
Zixia explained: "Adding icing on the cake is far less effective than sending charcoal in the snow. If An Miaoyi came to win Ye Fan over after he succeeded in breaking through the barrier, the effect would be greatly reduced. But at this moment, her gift is particularly precious and important."
Tu Fei showed a strange look and guessed: "Could An Miaoyi be..."
Zixia nodded: "She probably wants to bet on herself. After all, once you miss the great holy body, you will lose it forever. Miaoyu Temple has such a tradition. It is undoubtedly a wise choice for her to befriend Ye Fan."
"I really don't want to go." Ye Fan shook his head with a firm attitude.
"Of course you can't go, then I'll go for you!" Tu Fei said with a wicked smile.
"Hmph! It's not your turn yet, Ye Fan. Since you don't want to go, I'll go!" Zixia said lightly and no one knew what she was thinking.
·······
At night, the moon hangs high in the sky, and the silver light falls like a waterfall, shrouding the whole land in a hazy veil. Miaoyu Temple is located in the air, with the lake below as clear as a sapphire, and the moonlight above flowing slowly like water. Covered by the moonlight, this complex of buildings is stained with a layer of dreamy colors, which makes it look particularly mysterious.
Zixia transformed herself into Jiang Pengpeng and ascended into the sky. Someone invited her into a magnificent palace, where stood a peerlessly beautiful woman. In the moonlight, she looked almost divine, like a fairy who had fallen from the silver moon, untainted by the dust of the human world.
"Sister, you're here!" An Miaoyi came forward with a smile, her snow-white dress fluttering gently in the breeze, as if she would fly away with the wind at any time.
"Now, what should I call you?"
Zixia smiled calmly and responded, "As for the name, just call me whatever you like. Why, doesn't Sister Miaoyi welcome me?"
Zixia continued, "Oh, by the way, Ye Fan said he didn't want to come, so I came for him!"
An Miaoyi's eyes flickered as she smiled and said, "Sister, are you here to call me to task?"
