Chapter 401: The Prisoner Release Assembly
Holy Son Yao Guang, Golden Wing Little Peng King, and Yao Xi were all peerless figures of the younger generation, causing many senior elders to nod inwardly, acknowledging them as truly outstanding talents.
The Divine King showed no displeasure; instead, he revealed a hint of approval, saying, “He can fight you. As long as he breaks into the Four Extremes Secret Realm, anyone of the younger generation can engage him in a life-or-death duel.”
At these words from the Divine King, the crowd erupted in commotion. Was it really possible for the Primordial Saint Body to break into the Four Extremes Secret Realm? Yet no one dared to refute him.
Golden Wing Little Peng King’s golden pupils gleamed with murderous intent as he stared at Ye Fan, wanting to say more. But at that moment, Old Peng King made his move, extending a golden Peng claw that instantly covered heaven and earth, grabbing him away.
With the Peerless Divine King present, who dared to show disrespect? If one went too far and provoked the Divine King’s anger, no one could save them.
Holy Son Yao Guang descended like a Son of the Sun God, even his hair strands tinged with golden radiance. His temperament and divine aura were exceptionally outstanding, truly like a deity walking among the mortal world!
“Good, I look forward to Brother Ye entering the Four Extremes Secret Realm, breaking the curse of millennia, and letting the Primordial Saint Body shine brilliantly once more.” His expression was calm and serene, surrounded by one hundred and eight divine rings, almost like a god.
Holy Son Yao Guang calmly returned to stand behind Saint Lord of Yaoguang. People were astonished to find that the number of his divine rings matched that of Saint Lord of Yaoguang, though they were not yet as dazzling.
Yao Xi, with her immaculate immortal grace and nation-toppling beauty, had a flame-like divine light dancing at her brow, shocking even the senior elders, who all revealed looks of surprise.
She too stepped aside, moving as if walking through the halls of Guanghan Palace, her clothes unstained by dust, her beauty pure and transcendent. Her phoenix eyes coldly swept over Ye Fan without saying a word.
If Ye Fan entered the Four Extremes Secret Realm, he would inevitably face the three most terrifying figures of the younger generation. This time, he acted swiftly, releasing the Yaoguang reserve Holy Son Li Rui and quickly retreating.
“Ye Fan…” Li Rui shouted, unaware of the current situation, and was about to charge forward to fight.
Saint Lord of Yaoguang snorted coldly, reached out a large hand, grabbed him, and directly sealed him.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Not only had Ye Fan suppressed Holy Son Yao Guang and Holy Maiden Yao Xi, but he had also captured the reserve Holy Son. This was too ruthless—he had taken the entire nest in one go.
The expressions of the Yaoguang Holy Land members were not pleasant. This was hardly a glorious matter. Ye Fan had practically become the public enemy of Yaoguang’s younger generation.
“There aren’t any more, are there?” Divine King Jiang asked casually, not really expecting more.
Ye Fan awkwardly nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed himself.
Others nearly burst out laughing. There were more? Just how many people had this kid sealed away? Many people’s mouths twitched.
Divine King Jiang was almost speechless. He couldn’t help but glance at Ye Fan a couple of times, truly taken aback.
In the distance, An Miaoyi covered her mouth with a light laugh, her eyes shimmering with charm. She was utterly captivating, a beauty whose smile could topple a nation.
The White-Robed Little Nun, a loli with big, sparkling eyes, stared strangely at Ye Fan. The little golden creature on her shoulder was very human-like, laughing so hard it bent over, mocking Ye Fan.
“Brother Gu…” the Great Xia Prince shook his head, not knowing what to say.
Yao Yuekong laughed and said, “We should call him Young Brother Ye now.”
This time, Ye Fan released over a dozen women, all shrouded in purple mist and radiating purple glow, clearly from a single Holy Land—the Zi Mansion.
“Finally done,” Divine King Jiang muttered to himself, his tone somewhat helpless. He didn’t understand how Ye Fan had suppressed so many people.
“I beg the Divine King’s forgiveness… there’s still more.” Ye Fan glanced guiltily at the Divine King above the hall.
“Still more?!” Divine King Jiang was almost amused into anger.
Others could no longer hold back. Many burst into laughter. The Holy Sons and Holy Maidens all showed strange expressions. Just how many people had this bastard suppressed?
“This guy is too wicked, carrying so many people suppressed on him.” Ji Ziyue’s big eyes curved into crescent moons, then she shook Ji Haoyue’s arm, saying, “Good thing big brother isn’t among them.”
Ji Haoyue was quite speechless and glared at his sister.
This time, Ye Fan took out a purple-gold gourd. The moment he opened the gourd’s mouth, Jiang Yichen tumbled out, looking quite disheveled.
Even the Divine King’s descendant had been suppressed. The Jiang family members were speechless. Many cultivators wanted to laugh but barely held back.
Jiang Yichen, confused, saw many elders present as soon as he came out and immediately turned hostile toward Ye Fan.
Jiang Yifei quickly stepped forward and grabbed him, pulling him out of the crowd. He feared the Divine King might become enraged and kill such a descendant.
Divine King Jiang stared at Ye Fan, thoroughly amused, because he noticed Ye Fan seemed to have something to say but hesitated. “Are you trying to tell me there’s still more?”
“This is absolutely the last one!” Ye Fan was almost sweating. For the first time, he realized that suppressing so many people made him uncomfortable too.
Everyone was speechless, unable to suppress their smiles, all eyes fixed on him.
The Holy Sons and Holy Maidens exchanged glances, feeling that this bastard was inherently at odds with the Holy Lands. He suppressed either Holy Sons or Holy Maidens. This time, they wondered who it would be.
Ye Fan took out a scroll painting sealed in the Vajra Ring and cast it into the void. Within it, a purple-clad maiden appeared ethereal and hazy, as if about to ascend to immortality.
As soon as the Mountain and River Map appeared, many exclaimed in surprise. The Holy Sons and Holy Maidens were all shocked. This was a divine artifact left by the previous generation of the Zi Mansion’s old Saint Lord, possessing immense power.
“He actually forced Purple Mist Fairy into the Mountain and River Map!”
“The Zi Mansion Holy Maiden is an Innate Dao Fetus, standing at the pinnacle of the younger generation’s top experts. Even she was sealed!”
“Once an Innate Dao Fetus becomes a Saint Lord, they will merge body and Dao. No matter how vast your magical power, you can only be suppressed. The later it gets, the more invincible she becomes.”
…
“Swish”
The Zi Mansion Holy Maiden flew out. A face so beautiful it could take one’s breath away flashed and vanished, re-shrouded in purple mist. She moved like a fairy treading on waves, every action imbued with Dao resonance.
This was the Innate Dao Fetus. Even in ordinary times, she was almost in the wondrous state of unity between heaven and man. Every gesture contained the divine charm of the Great Dao.
“What a pity. The Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus hasn’t been born yet, and she’s already out…” Li Heishui muttered from a corner.
Many people were instantly petrified. Give birth to an Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus? This was truly a shocking revelation!
Li Heishui, you bastard, are you trying to get me killed?! Ye Fan cursed inwardly and quickly explained, “It hasn’t been born yet. No, that’s not it. Wrong, I have no such plan!” The more he explained, the worse it got.
Beside him, the Zi Mansion Saint Lord’s face immediately darkened. The Innate Dao Fetus was the future pride of the Eastern Wasteland, and he certainly didn’t want anything to happen between her and the Saint Body.
Behind him, the Zi Mansion Holy Son’s face was even more gloomy. He had been suppressed by the Holy Maiden since childhood, unable to match her in cultivation. Hearing such news now naturally filled him with rage.
The Zi Mansion Holy Maiden had a tranquil personality, with a transcendent aura. But at this moment, she was somewhat annoyed. “What nonsense are you spouting!”
In the grand hall, those present exchanged glances, and many revealed smiles.
“Actually, such a marriage alliance could be considered. It might truly give birth to the most powerful physique,” Divine King Jiang suddenly spoke.
“This is…” The Saint Lords were all startled.
“If I’m not mistaken, Emperor Wu Shi might have been an Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus,” Divine King Jiang said.
Everyone present was greatly shocked. Who in this world could know more about Emperor Wu Shi than the Peerless Divine King? He had been trapped in Purple Mountain for four thousand years and must have obtained many secrets.
He might even have obtained Emperor Wu Shi’s imprint and inheritance.
Everyone wanted to know the secrets of Purple Mountain’s imperial legacy. Only he was most familiar with them now, but no one dared to press him. The thirteen Saint Lord-rank figures, three peerless old monsters, and the Dark Night Monarch were cautionary tales.
Divine King Jiang fixed his gaze on Ye Fan and said, “Do you want to walk Emperor Wu Shi’s path? It means being an enemy of the entire world, defeating all kings, overpowering every physique, fighting all the way to sagehood, and breaking into the Great Emperor realm…”
The crowd was shocked. Had Emperor Wu Shi fought his way to the Great Emperor realm like this? The Divine King had once again mentioned the imperial secret.
Ye Fan had offended the Holy Lands quite severely. In the future, he would surely have endless battles with the Holy Sons and Holy Maidens. Even the Peerless Divine King couldn’t protect him forever.
In fact, Ye Fan himself was speculating how long the Divine King could live. He always felt something was off. The White-Robed Divine King had fought an entire night against formidable opponents, displaying such divine might that it gave the feeling of a glorious sunset, beautiful but about to fade.
“In this post-Desolate Ancient era, the heavens have changed. The Saint Body has fallen, never again to regain its former supreme glory.” Divine King Jiang stared at Ye Fan. “I will give you ten million catties of Source to help you break into the Four Extremes Secret Realm. Whether you can ultimately break the shackles and how far you can go depends on you.”
At these words, the crowd erupted in extreme shock. The Peerless Divine King was going to act. Did he want to create a miracle?!
Some even speculated that his time might truly be running out and that he would make a series of major moves in the near future.
