Chapter 12818 Awakening
“That is the core of the Dark Sun, the second-generation Yin God, right in the center of Corpse City.” The voice of Entropy Heaven Ancient Phoenix trembled slightly. “The Chaos Pill Emperor should also be there, refining that Xin Dan.”
Ye Chen looked in the direction pointed out by the Ancient Phoenix of Entropy and saw a figure floating in the center of the Corpse City.
The figure was entirely black, with countless abyssal chains wrapped around its body, and half of its body had already merged with the energy of the Dark Sun.
His face was exactly the same as Ji Xuanqiong, whom Ye Chen had previously deduced, except that his eyes were bloodshot and he had no rationality whatsoever, and his body exuded a violent abyssal aura.
"Come here, come here..."
Faintly, Ye Chen seemed to hear Ji Xuanqiong calling out to him.
He instantly understood that the call coming from Wu Zangming's hair earlier was actually from Ji Xuanqiong!
Ye Chen then saw Ji Xuanqiong and vaguely sensed Ji Xuanqiong's complex thoughts, which included both a mad desire to devour him and a yearning to be saved.
Below Ji Xuanqiong, there was a huge alchemy furnace.
This alchemy furnace is pitch black, covered with ancient and eerie runes. As the runes flow, they exude a rich aura of chaos and chilling cold.
A faint golden light lingered around the mouth of the alchemy furnace, and within that light was the pure law of dawn, which was the aura within Xin Dan's body.
Ye Chen used the Heavenly Secrets Deduction Technique to immerse his mind in the alchemy furnace, and instantly saw the scene inside.
Xin Dan was firmly bound to the center of the alchemy furnace by golden chains. Her body was surrounded by faint Dawn Laws. Her aura was weak, her face was as pale as paper, but her consciousness remained clear.
Beneath the alchemy furnace, raging Yin Fire burned fiercely. The Yin Fire was terrifyingly hot and could erode the soul. Xin Dan's soul was being burned little by little by the Yin Fire, and a look of pain appeared on her face.
The Chaos Pill Emperor's goal was indeed to refine Xin Dan into the Dawn Golden Pill!
He wants to absorb the Dawn Law within the Dawn Golden Core to enhance his own power, thereby gaining complete control over the second-generation Yin God and the Dark Sun!
"Xin Dan!" Ye Chen couldn't help but shout.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's voice, Xin Dan, who was inside the alchemy furnace, trembled and slowly raised her head to look outside the furnace.
When she saw Ye Chen hovering outside the city of corpses, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, followed by a trace of worry, and she called out weakly:
"Ye Chen? You... how did you get here? Let's go! It's too dangerous here."
Xin Dan's voice trembled slightly. She knew clearly that the Chaos Pill Emperor's strength was unfathomable. With the blessing of the Dark Sun and the soon-to-be-formed second-generation Yin God, Ye Chen's rash arrival was tantamount to courting death.
"Xindan, don't worry, I will definitely get you out of here!" Ye Chen said.
Just then, a deep, slightly violent voice came from the center of the Corpse City, echoing throughout the heavens and earth: "Heh, Lord of Reincarnation, you have quite the audacity to dare to trespass into my Dark Sun Corpse City and even dare to dream of saving people? You truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man dressed in white slowly stepped out from the center of the corpse city.
This young man was none other than the Chaos Pill Emperor, Lord Fei Zhao!
His face was filled with ferocity, his eyes brimming with madness and obsession. His aura was a mixture of pure medicinal essence and violent chaos and abyssal energy, the two auras intertwined, making him appear exceptionally eerie.
The Chaos Pill Emperor hovered beside Ji Xuanqiong, his gaze coldly fixed on Ye Chen, a chilling smile playing on his lips:
"I'm giving you a chance, get out of here right now!"
Upon hearing the words of the Chaos Pill Emperor, Ye Chen's heart stirred.
Judging from the appearance of the Chaos Pill Emperor, although he appeared fierce on the surface, there seemed to be a trace of fear hidden inside.
Ye Chen knew that the Chaos Pill Emperor was afraid of him!
With Entropy Heaven Ancient Phoenix and Haoyang by his side, together they could cause the Chaos Pill Emperor a great deal of trouble!
"Are you afraid, Chaos Pill Emperor?"
Ye Chen's lips curled into a cold smile as he pointed the Heavenly Emperor Intercepting Dao Sword at the Chaos Pill Emperor.
Chaos Pill Emperor's facial muscles twitched slightly. He had set up many restrictions and defensive formations outside the core of the Dark Sun, but none of these defenses could stop Ye Chen and the others.
He was well aware of Ye Chen and the others' strength; even if he won in a real battle, he would have to pay a huge price.
Haoyang, standing next to Ye Chen, had his brows furrowed and looked disgusted.
"Lord of Reincarnation, there's no need to waste words with this evil heretic. Let's kill him!"
Having said that, Haoyang unleashed a burst of fiery energy from his hand, which transformed into a longsword.
"Slay me?"
The Chaos Pill Emperor raised an eyebrow, knowing full well that there was no turning back now.
"Very well! You insist on courting death, then I will grant your wish! Men, seize them!"
As soon as the words fell, countless hideous heads on the walls of the Corpse City suddenly let out a shrill roar, and corpses began to fall from the walls!
Then, countless corpses, covering the sky like a tidal wave, exuding a dense aura of chaos and abyss, rushed madly towards Ye Chen and Hao Yang.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Chen, Hao Yang, and Shangtian Ancient Phoenix were all shocked.
Ye Chen's mind raced, and he shouted, a fierce glint in his eyes, "Brother Haoyang, Entropy Heaven Ancient Phoenix, you two hold off these monsters, I'm going to rescue people!"
"Okay!" Haoyang and Shangtian Ancient Phoenix responded in unison.
Haoyang's body blazed with golden light as he swung his Flaming Sun Sword, slashing forward.
The Ancient Phoenix of Entropy let out a cry, flapped its wings, and unleashed a burst of yin-yang energy that blasted towards the corpses, crushing large swathes of them.
Taking advantage of the moment when the two were holding back the corpses, Ye Chen flashed and transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the alchemy furnace in the center of the corpse city.
The Heavenly Emperor Intercepting Sword in his hand unleashed a series of sharp sword lights, slicing the corpses that blocked his path into pieces, cutting through everything in his path and rapidly approaching the alchemy furnace.
"What a vicious sword!"
The Chaos Pill Emperor's expression was extremely solemn. Seeing Ye Chen's frenzied sword strikes, he knew Ye Chen was not to be trifled with. His eyes flashed as he looked in Ji Xuanqiong's direction and shouted:
"Yin God, stop him! Tear him to pieces and refine him into your body!"
He directly addressed Ji Xuanqiong as the Yin God, clearly indicating that in his mind, he had completely regarded Ji Xuanqiong as the second-generation Yin God.
He himself did not act rashly, but focused his main energy on refining Xin Dan.
Hearing the command from the Chaos Pill Emperor, Ji Xuanqiong, who was hovering in the center of the Corpse City, had his crimson eyes grow even more intense. He let out a violent roar, and his body erupted with a powerful abyssal aura.
With a swift movement, he transformed into a black streak of light and pounced madly towards Ye Chen.
His hands transformed into jet-black claws, viciously clawing towards Ye Chen's head.
Ye Chen's heart tightened, and he dared not be careless in the slightest. He quickly dodged to the side, and at the same time, he swung the Heavenly Emperor Intercepting Dao Sword, and a huge gray-black sword light slashed towards Ji Xuanqiong's claws.
boom--!
The sword light collided with the sharp claws, producing a deafening roar. A burst of violent energy erupted, and Ye Chen was forced to retreat repeatedly by the force of the impact.
Ji Xuanqiong was also jolted by the sword light, and a tiny wound appeared on his claws, from which black blood dripped.
Ye Chen barely managed to steady himself, his heart trembling. He hadn't expected that the second-generation Yin God, who was not yet fully formed, would be so powerful.
Ji Xuanqiong was a named individual on the path to the Great Heavenly Emperor. With the nourishment of the Dark Sun Abyss aura and the refinement by the Chaos Pill Emperor, his strength far surpassed that of ordinary Heavenly Dao Realm experts. Even Ye Chen would find it difficult to contend with him.
"kill!"
Ji Xuanqiong let out a cold shout, his eyes devoid of any reason, and pounced on Ye Chen once again.
His attacks were violent and frenzied, without any rhyme or reason, yet they carried a world-destroying power.
Ye Chen parried with his sword, and the two engaged in a fierce battle. The violent energy swept across the entire Corpse City, causing the city walls to collapse continuously. Countless corpses were shattered by the aftershocks of their battle.
Meanwhile, the Chaos Pill Emperor watched the two fighting, a hint of madness and urgency flashing in his eyes.
He knew that time was of the essence, and Ye Chen's strength far exceeded his expectations. If he delayed any longer, once Ye Chen defeated Ji Xuanqiong, he would come to stop him from refining Xin Dan, and then his plan would completely fall apart.
"No, we can't delay any longer. We must refine Xin Dan as soon as possible!" A resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the Chaos Pill Emperor as he formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
The yin fire beneath the alchemy furnace surged instantly, and a chilling aura rushed wildly into the furnace.
Xin Dan groaned as she was burned by the Yin Fire. Her face grew even paler and her breath became weaker.
Her Dawn Laws were being eroded and extracted little by little by the Yin Fire, converging towards the core of the alchemy furnace, gradually condensing into a golden pill prototype.
It was the golden elixir of dawn.
"Xin Dan!" Ye Chen was anxious when he saw this scene. He wanted to rush over, but Ji Xuanqiong held him tightly and he couldn't break free at all.
In the midst of the crisis, Ye Chen shouted, "Great Sun Reincarnation Heaven!"
He formed a hand seal, and the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star rose up, radiating brilliant light. Countless reincarnation runes shone, and a dazzling golden light formed a magnificent halo outside the Destiny Star.
Under the illumination of the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star, Ji Xuanqiong's body hissed and emitted black smoke, clearly indicating that the abyssal aura on his body was being evaporated by the light of the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
"Eight-segment Fiery Sun Collapse!"
Using the power of the Great Sun Reincarnation Heaven, Ye Chen unleashed another punch, aiming straight at Ji Xuanqiong.
Ji Xuanqiong hurriedly raised his hand to block, only to feel the overwhelming blazing sun energy of the eighth layer crashing down like waves of giant waves. He gritted his teeth, mobilized the power of the abyss, and the Dark Sun floated behind him, forcefully blocking Ye Chen's earth-shattering attack.
The scene was extremely spectacular, with a golden sun shining above Ye Chen's head, while a black sun loomed behind Ji Xuanqiong.
The sky over the city of corpses was divided in two, one half a brilliant gold, the other a deep, dark color.
"puff--"
Just when Ji Xuanqiong thought he had blocked Ye Chen's attack, a sudden surge of yin energy rushed into Ye Chen's internal organs along his fist.
It was the hidden force of the Eight-Stage Blazing Sun Collapse!
Ye Chen had already thoroughly understood this martial art. Beneath the surface of the blazing Yang energy, there was actually an extremely sinister hidden force, which was the real killing move.
Caught off guard, Ji Xuanqiong was suddenly struck by a hidden force, feeling excruciating pain in his internal organs, and spitting out blood.
As he spat out that mouthful of blood, his body began to tremble violently, the crimson in his eyes gradually faded, and a trace of clarity slowly emerged.
Ji Xuanqiong stopped attacking, hovering in mid-air, looking at Ye Chen with a blank expression.
"You...you have the aura of the Great Heavenly Emperor on you..." Ji Xuanqiong's voice trembled slightly as he looked at Ye Chen and said, "You are...a person of the Great Heavenly Emperor?"
Ye Chen originally intended to press his advantage and completely suppress Ji Xuanqiong, but seeing that Ji Xuanqiong seemed to have regained his senses, he couldn't help but ask, "You're awake?"
"Yes, I am... the one who bears the name of the Great Heavenly Emperor."
Ji Xuanqiong murmured to himself, his eyes becoming clearer and clearer, but with it came a deep sense of confusion.
His body was trembling uncontrollably, and he kept muttering, "No...it can't be, it can't be."
"We...we cannot defeat the Primordial Chaos."
Seeing that Ji Xuanqiong had regained consciousness but his eyes were filled with deep confusion and despair, Ye Chen's heart stirred.
He knew that Ji Xuanqiong must be suffering from a serious inner demon.
And this inner demon must be related to the Primordial Chaos Ancestor.
Ye Chen said, "Don't panic, there's always a solution. As long as we find that four-word law, we'll definitely be able to defeat the Primordial Chaos Ancestor."
The key to defeating the Primordial Chaos is that hidden four-word law!
Without hesitation, Ye Chen unleashed a ray of golden light from his body, which condensed into an ancient and powerful "法" (law) character above his head.
The character "法" (law) floated in the air, its runes flowing, radiating a powerful force of law. It was one of the four characters of the law, and also one that he had already mastered.
"This is..." Ji Xuanqiong's gaze fell on the character "法" (law), and his whole body trembled violently. His blank eyes were instantly replaced by shock.
Not far away, the Chaos Pill Emperor, who was fully engaged in refining Xin Dan, caught a glimpse of the "Dharma" character in front of Ye Chen out of the corner of his eye. His originally crazed and obsessive eyes instantly revealed a deep greed.
Although he had glimpsed the character "出" (chu, meaning "out") in the four-character law back then, he failed to fully comprehend it. That character "出" had long since faded and dimmed. He knew better than anyone how terrifying the power of a complete source character of the law was.
"Yin God!" the Chaos Pill Emperor immediately shouted, "Quickly kill the Lord of Reincarnation and seize his 'Dharma' character! Use the 'Out' character I gave you to crush him!"
Upon hearing the words of the Chaos Pill Emperor, Ji Xuanqiong's body convulsed, and the abyssal aura within him surged forth once more.
The Qingming Festival, which had just been restored, was about to be plunged into darkness again.
He clutched his head with both hands, letting out a painful roar, his body twisting violently, one side a remnant of reason, the other the command etched into his soul by the Chaos Pill Emperor.
The two forces clashed violently within him, causing him unbearable pain.
In the end, he was unable to resist the control of the Chaos Pill Emperor. The clarity in his eyes was completely swallowed by the crimson, and his clothes were torn to shreds in the violent aura, revealing his body covered in wounds.
Its body was covered with pitch-black abyss patterns, and amidst the interwoven patterns, a dim and lifeless character "出" (chu, meaning "exit") was clearly branded on its chest.
This is one of the four-word principles!
