Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

A white light gradually began to glow on the altar.

Waves of obscure energy permeated the area, causing all the Cultivators on the nine Celestial Roads around the altar to hold their breath, a sense of unease rising within them.

But no one spoke.

Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent Sensing scanned the surroundings, but he didn’t detect any of the top ten prodigies in the area.

It was as if they had all deliberately avoided this place.

Ye Tianling’s Primordial Rune was becoming increasingly ancient and complex, and the time it took to condense it grew longer and longer.

A large number of Dao Rhyme Fragments flowed toward the center of Ye Tianling’s forehead. The sight attracted the covetous gazes of countless Cultivators, yet not a single one dared to step forward.

In fact, when the Dao Rhyme Fragments passed by some of the Cultivators, they actively moved aside, afraid of causing any misunderstanding.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to seize them; they simply didn’t dare.

Although they were prodigies with immense Battle Power, their strength wasn’t much greater than that of Xiao Chen and the six other prodigies, and they lacked the confidence to survive a single punch from Ye Tianling.

The Dao Rhyme Fragments transformed into specks of starlight deep within the center of his forehead. The number of fragments there finally surpassed one hundred thousand and was still rising.

However, once the count reached one hundred and ten thousand, the number of Dao Rhyme Fragments unexpectedly stopped increasing, entering a state of stagnation.

Ye Tianling, who was still condensing the Primordial Rune, noticed this change and immediately focused his senses to investigate.

He then discovered that the primary source of Dao Rhyme Fragments in this realm still had to be gathered from the Heaven and Earth Region itself.

When seizing Dao Rhyme Fragments from others, the fragments had already gone through one "harvesting." Upon the second collection, a certain portion would dissipate and be lost.

Furthermore, this realm seemed to have a limit on the number of Dao Rhyme Fragments one could hold. Seizing them from others through slaughter was not the best method and clearly didn’t align with the rules.

Although more Dao Rhyme Fragments were still flying toward him, Ye Tianling’s capacity for them was already saturated; he could no longer acquire more through slaughter.

His current one hundred and ten thousand Dao Rhyme Fragments only placed him at thirty-seventh, which was not in the top ten.

During this period, the number of Dao Rhyme Fragments held by the first-ranked Ji Yun had already reached two hundred and thirty thousand.

The tenth-ranked person had reached two hundred and seventeen thousand.

Ye Tianling had no intention of vying for first place, but he was still slightly shocked by how quickly these others were accumulating Dao Rhyme Fragments.

’They must be on a killing spree, right? Slaughtering and gathering massive amounts of Dao Rhyme Fragments at the same time... They must be in a land of great opportunity, and I’m afraid that place is far more heaven-defying than this one.’

As Ye Tianling pondered this, he waved his hand, sending the Dao Rhyme Fragments to envelop Ye Tianyun.

"Brother, you should keep these for yourself. Do I have to enter the Hidden Dragon Demon Cave too?"

Ye Tianyun was stunned for a moment before she spoke.

She didn’t refuse, however. Since Ye Tianling had sent them over, he must have had his reasons.

It was just that Ye Tianyun didn’t understand why.

"Yes. Stick with me, and I’ll take you in. But it will be dangerous."

Ye Tianling spoke softly, completely ignoring the other Cultivators.

"Okay, Brother."

Upon hearing his words, Ye Tianyun walked directly over. Along the way, many Cultivators scrambled to clear a path for her.

"HSSSS—"

Ye Tianling casually drove the condensed Primordial Rune into the ancient altar, causing it to tremble even more violently.

Streaks of light resembling Immortal Spirits shot out in all directions, causing the entire area to tremble violently.

The nine Celestial Roads began to rotate, circling the altar and leaving streaks of afterimages in their wake.

The scene was terrifying, yet from within the rings of light, the many Cultivators present sensed waves of a special Origin Energy that felt like an aura of Divinity.

This Origin Energy almost instantly restored their depleted reserves.

Not only that, but their Realms began to loosen, initiating a complete transformation.

This transformation deepened layer by layer, starting from their bloodlines, permeating every cell in their blood, and then moving from their physical bodies to their Souls, all as a matter of course.

This divine Dao light emanating from the altar passed through Ye Tianling first, but to him, the benefits were not particularly significant.

In fact, the effect was comparable to the Origin of Essence, Qi, and Soul he obtained from refining Cultivators with his Samadhi Celestial Fire.

Even though this Energy was of little use to him, Ye Tianling absorbed it anyway, channeling it into the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower within his body.

The Essence, Qi, and Soul from Xiao Chen and the six other Cultivators, combined with the essence now emanating from the altar, provided Ye Tianxi with even more magnificent Energy and created a more suitable environment for her transformation via the Nirvana Nine Transformations.

Ye Tianxi’s transformation proceeded even more smoothly. In one fell swoop, she initiated the fifth, sixth, and even the seventh change of the Nirvana Nine Transformations.

At the same time, Ye Tianling absorbed a portion of the Energy and gave it to Ye Tianyun for her Cultivation.

Ye Tianyun had reached Ye Tianling’s side by now. She stood there gracefully, filled with immense admiration and pride for her brother.

"Brother."

When Ye Tianyun felt the massive amount of Origin Energy sweeping toward her—far more beneficial than what the other Cultivators were absorbing on their own—her pretty face couldn’t help but flush with excitement.

However, her happiness lasted only for a moment. As if recalling something, her face began to turn pale again.

"Absorb it first, then undergo your transformation. If you can make a breakthrough naturally, then just do it. Don’t have any reservations."

Ye Tianling said with a slight nod.

Then he resumed condensing the Primordial Rune to further stimulate the altar.

Seeing the vast amount of Origin Energy from the altar wash over Ye Tianyun like a Spiritual Spring, Ye Tianling was quite satisfied.

This kind of Energy Infusion, like an Origin Soul Refining, was naturally of immense benefit to Ye Tianyun.

By now, Ye Tianyun’s Abilities had been almost completely activated, and her Immortal Phoenix Peacock Bloodline Talent was also being gradually stimulated. It would, of course, be even better if it could awaken further.

However, from Ye Tianyun’s condition, Ye Tianling knew that the projection of her that Long Qingzhuo had extracted and sent into the Soul Burial Starry Sky had now utterly failed and died.

Therefore, even if she awakened her bloodline, she would not possess the memories from that experimental projection.

"Brother, don’t you need this?"

Ye Tianyun was deeply moved. There was more she wanted to say, but she forced herself to hold it back.

She didn’t want to waste the perfect Cultivation environment that her brother had so painstakingly created for her.
