Chapter 59: Entering the God Burial Abyss [First update]
I've been adjusting my schedule for the past two days, and the fourth update will be released tomorrow!
…
As the celebration was held, the entire Longhuang Island was filled with joy. The owner of the Liushen Island in the Inner Sea also came over in person, smiling pleasantly and congratulating Ye Chen. He also gave gifts to each of them, including rare plant armors, sharp swords, etc.
In this joyful atmosphere, Ye Chen always looked calm, sometimes staring into the distance, sometimes frowning in thought, without any hint of joy.
Huang Feng saw that there was no joy on Ye Chen's face and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Ye Chen glanced at him, his eyes flashed, and he shook his head slightly.
At this time, the celebration had been held, and there was a spacious square. Many maids were shuttled around, placing fruit plates and fine wines on various tables. All the guests were seated. An old man in a purple shirt slowly walked out of the back hall. When everything was ready,
, he stood next to Ye Chen, looked around the audience, and said with a smile: "Today is a great day!"
Hearing this, everyone put down their glasses and listened quietly.
The old man in purple shirt looked at Ye Chen next to him and said with a smile: "Today, the next master of the temple of our Dragon King Island is finally born. He is Mr. Ye Chen. At a young age, he overcame his inner demons and reached the level of
A fifth-level wise man, with great enlightenment, crossed the bridge of the soul, and was recognized by the Divine Sword. I believe that under his leadership, we will be even more brilliant!"
Everyone in the audience was excited to hear this, and looked at Ye Chen with admiration in their eyes.
After the old man in purple shirt finished speaking, he turned to look at Ye Chen and said with a smile: "As long as you say something, the celebration can be held."
Ye Chen looked as usual, waved his hand and said: "Let's get started."
The old man in purple shirt smiled slightly, raised his palm, and a horn blew in the distance. Then, many firecrackers and fireworks sounded, many balloons rose into the sky, exploded, and many petals spilled out from inside. It was extremely beautiful. The whole square was filled with
Suddenly there was laughter and laughter.
"Follow me." The old man in purple shirt looked at Ye Chen, said with a smile, and led him to the top of everyone's seats, where there was a golden throne, majestic and domineering, like the throne of an emperor.
At the signal of the old man in purple shirt, Ye Chen sat on the golden throne and looked down at the red carpet below, wine overflowing at the dining table, and brilliant fireworks exploding in the sky. Although the Xuanyuan tribe is relatively primitive, they still have high standards.
Technology, making fireworks is not difficult.
"Singing and dancing..."
As the old man in the purple shirt clapped his hands, many graceful and graceful women walked out from unknown places and danced among the people at the table, looking ethereal and extremely beautiful.
Many people cheered loudly and were fascinated by it, eager to join in.
Ye Chen had no expression on his face and watched all this silently. Next to him, fruit plates were brought up in the hands of pretty girls, containing various precious fruits that tasted delicious.
Good wine, beautiful women...
These days were no worse than those of ancient emperors. Compared to Ye Chen, who had lived through the apocalypse for ten years and rarely had enough to eat, it was a fatal temptation.
He ate the fruits one by one, frowning in thought, not paying attention to the singing and dancing.
After a while, he suddenly turned his head, looked closely at the old man in purple shirt next to him, and said, "What's your name?"
The old man in purple shirt was slightly startled, and the originally joyful atmosphere around him seemed to suddenly freeze. After a moment, the old man in purple shirt sneered and said: "I am just an elder of the temple. What's the matter with you suddenly asking?"
Ye Chen was silent for a moment and then said: "Do you know the names of the six island owners in the Inland Sea?"
The old man in purple shirt looked strange and said, "Why are you asking these questions all of a sudden?"
"Say!" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes.
The old man in purple shirt looked slightly embarrassed and said: "We don't have much contact with them. When they come, you can ask them in person. I can't tell them their names."
Ye Chen stared at him for a long time, his eyes flickered, and then he slowly lowered his head, frowning in thought.
As time goes by...
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
During these three days, Ye Chen had fine wine every day, accompanied by beauties, and everything was taken care of attentively. His days were like a fairy.
On this third day, Ye Chen said goodbye to Huang Feng, Zi Wan and others, and arrived at the Holy Land of the Dragon King. Looking from a distance, he saw the book boy waiting quietly by the Bridge of Souls.
Ye Chen walked over.
When the book boy saw him, his eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "You are finally here. Without further ado, let's go!" With that, he turned around to take the lead and leave.
Ye Chen suddenly said: "Slow down!"
The book boy looked at him in surprise and said, "What?"
Ye Chen stared at him for a while, then slowly picked up the Xuanyuan Divine Sword in his hand, handed it to him, and said, "Take it!"
The book boy was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "What? You don't want it?"
Ye Chen glanced at him and said coldly: "Of course I want it, but not a phantom, but the real Xuanyuan Divine Sword!" With that, he threw his palm and threw the Divine Sword into the ravine next to the Bridge of Souls.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
As the divine sword disappeared, the book boy in front of him disappeared, and Ye Chen's body returned to the twelfth step of the Bridge of Souls at some point. His expression was calm, and he was not at all surprised. All of this was expected.
When you step into the twelfth step, you will not get any test. In fact, everything in these three days is a test!
Let him think he has obtained the divine sword and then be immersed in joy forever. This is the spiritual test in the twelfth step!
Ye Chen had vaguely guessed from the beginning that after all, it was impossible to obtain such a top-level treasure as the Xuanyuan Divine Sword so easily. Moreover, as an outsider, he would have to suffer a lot even if he was really qualified to obtain it.
In order to verify what he was thinking, he asked the old man in purple shirt and the names of the six island owners in the inner sea. He didn't know any of these people, but the old man in purple shirt still refused to answer directly, which just confirmed what he was thinking.
Everything in the past three days developed according to what he thought in his heart. Therefore, he did not know the name of the old man in purple in his heart, so he did not know it in the illusion.
Since you knew it was an illusion, why did you stay there for three days?
Because Ye Chen couldn't find a way to break the illusion for a moment.
This illusion is not a cliff. You only need to abandon everything and take a brave step to take the next step. In this illusion, if your mind is not strong, you will sink forever. If you do not have a thorough understanding, you will not be able to figure out the direction.
Can't get out of the illusion.
After three days of hard thinking.
Ye Chen recalled all the things along the way, and finally realized that he knew the way to break the illusion, which was to destroy the false Xuanyuan Divine Sword in his hand, because this divine sword was the obsession in his heart, and he could only let go of his obsession.
, to be able to see through everything.
If you are willing to give up, you will gain. Because you are willing to give up, you will truly gain!
At the bridge of the soul, Zi Wan, Huang Feng and others looked at Ye Chen who was stiff and motionless. They each frowned. They were not anxious, but rather secretly happy. If Ye Chen had not taken away the divine sword, they would have
There is a chance to succeed! Although their current state of mind is not as good as that of Ye Chen, the improvement of the soul does not follow the rules. Sometimes, one epiphany can lead to instant sainthood!
"He has stayed at the Twelve Steps for three hours and has not broken through yet. It seems that there is little hope of taking this step!" Huang Jian said secretly in his heart, feeling a little happy.
At this moment, Ye Chen, who had been motionless, suddenly raised his head slowly and looked at the towering sword. With an expression as usual, he slowly took one step forward, crossed the twelfth step, and walked to the other side of the bridge.
Huang Feng, Zi Wan and others were all shocked and looked at Ye Chen in disbelief.
"Breaking through, have you passed through?" Huang Bingbing covered her red lips with her hands, somewhat in disbelief. Her father had not even passed through the eleventh floor, but the man in black in front of her was far beyond it?
While several people were in shock, Ye Chen stood under the divine sword and looked intently. He felt that the divine sword was filled with majestic aura, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch it...
"Huh?" Ye Chen frowned and saw his palm passing through the sword body and reaching inside. His face changed slightly, "It's just a projection?"
Behind the bridge, the middle-aged man saw Ye Chen walking over. He looked at it silently for a long time, then sighed softly and said, "That's just a projection of the Divine Sword. Don't bother. Come back, I'll take you to see the real Divine Sword."
!”
Ye Chen was startled for a moment, frowned slightly, turned around and walked along the Bridge of Souls to the other side, and said, "Where is the real divine sword?"
"Don't worry!" The middle-aged man turned to look at Zi Wan and others next to him, and said: "Next, we are going to Burial Shen Abyss. Is there anything else you need to prepare?"
Zi Wan and others' eyes lit up, and they shook their heads impatiently.
The middle-aged man looked at Ye Chen and said: "The true location of the divine sword is in the God Burial Abyss. It is personally controlled by Lord Dragon Emperor. Come with me!" As he said that, the figure moved and turned around.
Ye Chen pondered for a moment, then moved and followed him. Huang Feng and others beside him quickly followed without saying a word. Although they did not get the divine sword, it was expected. After all, they all have transcendent status.
People with a lot of experience naturally know that the divine sword is not so easy to obtain.
"Congratulations!" Huang Feng looked at Ye Chen and congratulated with a smile, but there was a hint of helplessness in his voice.
Huang Bingbing, Huang Jian and others next to them all congratulated Ye Chen, with a little bit of enthusiasm.
Ye Chen didn't say much, just retorted, and then followed the others, led by the middle-aged man, out of the Holy Land of the Dragon King and galloped towards the temple.
At the entrance of the majestic temple, several guards saw the middle-aged man and quickly saluted respectfully without daring to stop him at all.
The middle-aged man was strolling casually in the temple. People around him were respectful when they saw him. Obviously, the middle-aged man had a very high status in the temple!
Not long after, I arrived at the center of the temple and saw a metal room with a large pool ten feet tall. The inside was golden and filled with a strange aroma. It was a source of divine power!
Just when Ye Chen was confused, the middle-aged man pressed the button somewhere, and the pool surface of the source of divine power parted, revealing a vortex, with a black shaft inside, about one foot in diameter.
