Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

Wen Qingye made his name in the battle for the Heart-Seeking Seed.

First, Xu Houcai of the Ancient Night Country was killed by Wen Qingye’s sword. Then, the veteran expert Jiangshan Guest, Bai Chen of the Asura Sect, and Yangg Yi all died by his hand. But the most unbelievable death of all was that of Li Xingyun. A peerless prodigy of his generation had fallen, becoming a stepping stone for Wen Qingye’s rise to fame.

For a time, the name Wen Qingye of the Celestial Profound Sect was dreaded by all. But while the news spread like wildfire, it was soon overshadowed.

First, Zhong Tiandao, a disciple of the Daoist School of Non-action, shocked everyone by slaying Mr. Jade of the Jade Ancient Country with a single sword strike. Mr. Jade, who ranked twenty-third on the Cyan Cloud List and hailed from one of the Seven Great Ancient Countries, fell, and Zhong Tiandao became famous overnight.

After that, numerous young talents began to show their prowess. Zhu Yan of Yihai Country; Jiekong and Jieling of Baoling Temple; Jun Buwu of the Desert North Ancient Land; Shi Tianlong of the Celestial Profound Sect’s Cloud Conceal Peak and Cao Yun of its Chaotian Peak; and Hankong and Du Shang of Taiyi Pavilion all made their appearances one by one.

Many others, however, remained hidden, unwilling to reveal themselves so easily. All of them were at the peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Yin-Yang Realm. Each possessed extraordinary talent and formidable strength that no ordinary expert could hope to match.

Then, Jiang Wu, a disciple of Taiyi Pavilion, killed Qii Yu—an expert from the Glazed Ancient Country at the First Level of the Destruction Realm—in a single move. With that, he instantly stole the spotlight from everyone else, becoming the most talked-about figure of the moment.

Wind Rises and Clouds Surge, and undercurrents churned beneath the surface. It was the calm before a gathering storm.

「Three days later, in a guest room at the Luo Family’s residence.」

Wen Qingye retracted his Heart Spirit, and the murkiness in his eyes instantly gave way to clarity.

’This Taiyi Profound Gate Sword is truly profound. It’s a perfect fit for a Soft Sword. With this Spiritual Middle-Level Martial Art in my arsenal for the fight over the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele... I don’t think it matters how many disciples the Taiyi Pavilion sends. They’ll be useless against me.’

Then, he looked at the Heart-Seeking Seed in his hand and murmured, "It’s a shame that if I want to use this Heart-Seeking Seed to raise my cultivation, it will have to accumulate in my body for several days."

The Heart-Seeking Seed was, after all, only a Spirit Seed. Although it contained a vibrant life force, it couldn’t be absorbed easily. Its greatest value came from planting it and cultivating a Heart Inquiry Flower.

However, that would require a great deal of time, energy, and resources. Furthermore, a Heart Inquiry Flower would be of almost no help to Wen Qingye, so he naturally had no intention of painstakingly cultivating the seed.

"How long is ’several days’?" the Ice Python asked, its curiosity piqued.

Wen Qingye shook his head. "I’m not sure. It could be three days, or it could be half a month. The effects of these natural wonders are sometimes impossible to predict. But with my methods, I’m certain I can absorb its nourishing properties within ten days."

As he finished speaking, Wen Qingye opened his mouth slightly. With a flick of his finger, the Heart-Seeking Seed shot into his mouth, traveled down into his abdomen, and settled directly into his Qi Sea.

His Yin Yang Qi Sea was filled with swirling mist, and the Heart-Seeking Seed floated motionlessly in the center.

"Junior Brother Wen! Junior Brother Wen!"

Just then, Tao Liuu’s voice rang out from outside the door.

Wen Qingye slowly rose, opened the door, and looked at a somewhat flustered Tao Liuu. "Brother Tao, what is it?"

Tao Liuu caught his breath and said, "Junior Brother Wen, by killing Li Xingyun, you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest! You know who he was. On top of that, the Asura Sect says their feud with you isn’t over. But the most terrifying one is Jiang Wu of Taiyi Pavilion. Because you killed Wang Hai at the Qinglan Platform, he’s openly declared that Xuwang Mountain will be your grave!"

Wen Qingye smiled. "It’s nothing. If they want to kill me, let them come."

"But, Junior Brother Wen, Jiang Wu’s strength..." Knowing Wen Qingye was powerful and proud, Tao Liuu changed his tack. "Nebula Hall wants you dead, and I mean the entire Sect! The person you killed wasn’t some nobody. They might send a whole host of experts after you!"

At this, Tao Liuu paused. "Nebula Hall is located in the southeast and has always been on good terms with Thousand Nether Valley and Taiyi Pavilion. Even though they don’t command an Ancient Country, their power is still immense. If they truly get ruthless and dispatch Elders and other masters to ambush you..."

Wen Qingye nodded. He knew Tao Liuu had a point. If they sent ordinary experts, he was confident the Ice Python could handle them. But if they sent more powerful masters, things could get tricky.

"I understand. I’ll be careful," Wen Qingye said slowly after a moment of thought.

Tao Liuu nodded and smiled. "Right. Well, no need to worry too much. As long as we get back to the Celestial Profound Mountain Domain quickly, none of this will be an issue. I actually came for another reason. Cao Yun of Chaotian Peak and Shi Tianlong of Cloud Conceal Peak have invited the rest of us to head to Xuwang Mountain, and they want us to rendezvous with them first."

But nothing ever got past Wen Qingye. He immediately sensed something was off. "Rendezvous with them? Why don’t they come to the Luo Family’s residence? I thought most of our Celestial Profound Sect disciples were gathered here."

Tao Liuu snorted. "Hmph. It seems Brother Wen has already figured it out. Shi Tianlong is ranked forty-third on the Cyan Cloud List, and Cao Yun is twenty-seventh. They’re the leading young prodigies from our Celestial Profound Sect on this trip. They’re telling us to go to them so we can all travel to Xuwang Mountain together, but it’s obvious they just want us to do the dirty work."

Wen Qingye gave a slight smile. "In that case, I think I’ll pass. I’d rather avoid any unnecessary trouble."

Tao Liuu frowned. "Junior Brother Wen, if you don’t go... I know what kind of person Cao Yun is. He’s narrow-minded and petty, the type to seek revenge for the smallest slight. He’ll definitely hold a grudge against you."

Wen Qingye just shook his head, unconcerned. He looked at Tao Liuu and said, "I’m not afraid of Nebula Hall. Why would I be afraid of him?"

"Hahaha, you’ve got a point, Junior Brother Wen!" Tao Liuu couldn’t help but laugh. His smile quickly faded, however, and his brow furrowed. "I came here to broaden my horizons. It would be great to get an opportunity from the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele, but that’s not my main goal. And I still feel it’s safer for us to stick together."

"Mm, regardless, having the Celestial Profound Sect disciples together is indeed the better choice," Wen Qingye agreed with a nod.

This was a gathering of titans. One had to remember that only cultivators at the Destruction Realm and above were barred from comprehending the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele. Some long-famous experts had been at the peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Yin-Yang Realm for years. The depth of their Primordial Qi was easily on par with, if not greater than, that of an ordinary Destruction Realm master.

Suddenly, Wen Qingye found himself filled with anticipation for the conflict over the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele. Deep down, his heart was still the same as it had been all those years ago, never lacking in passion or drive.

Tao Liuu stood to the side, watching the smile play on Wen Qingye’s lips. "Junior Brother Wen, I know you prefer to go it alone, but be careful."

Wen Qingye gave Tao Liuu a firm nod. "Thank you, Brother Tao."

"When we get back to the Sect, come visit me at Forget-Life Peak! With Senior Sister Yu around, no one will dare to mess with you, hahahaha!" Tao Liuu boomed with laughter.
