Chapter 31, The Innate Dao Embryo Startles the Jade Pool! [Please Read On!]
Within Su Ye's sea of suffering, the three treasures now reside in their respective places.
His aura was even more solid than before he went into seclusion.
Although his cultivation level at the second level of the Dao Palace remained unchanged, his physical strength and comprehension of Dao principles had reached a new level.
Especially his spiritual sense, which is now comparable to that of a cultivator at the Four Extremes!
The entire room fell silent.
From the moment the Emperor bypassed Yan Ruyu to the moment he flew into Su Ye's Sea of Bitterness, and the moment that mysterious green light appeared, it all happened in just a few breaths.
What happened in those few breaths surprised everyone present.
This included elders from the six great grotto-heavens, spies from ancient families, and hundreds of independent cultivators.
They all fell into an unbelievable silence.
Instead of choosing a descendant of the Azure Emperor, Di Xin chose an unknown human cultivator.
This whole thing is absurd.
Even more absurdly, the page of the golden book that just flew into this person's body.
Hundreds of eyes were focused on Su Ye.
Greed, jealousy, shock, confusion, murderous intent...
They have all kinds of looks.
But no one dared to make the first move.
Firstly, the imperial aura emanating from Su Ye had not completely dissipated, and secondly, no one could figure out his true nature.
Above the primitive ruins, the combined pressure of the imperial weapon and the imperial heart had not yet completely dissipated.
After Yan Ruyu retrieved the Chaos Green Lotus, she did not rush to leave.
She stood atop the mountain, a few strands of her black hair ruffled by the mountain wind, her gaze sweeping over hundreds of cultivators before landing on Su Ye.
A complex emotion flashed in those cool, clear eyes.
The Emperor chose this person, not her.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't disappointed.
But she knew even better that now was not the time to worry about that.
At this moment, Yan Ruyu's pupils contracted slightly.
On the distant horizon, three or four auras were pressing in at an alarming speed.
Each one is far beyond the four extremes.
Dragon Transformation Realm.
More than one.
She turned and whispered something to Qin Yao, whose expression changed drastically.
In the next instant, Yan Ruyu had already rushed to Su Ye's side.
As the white dress fluttered down, it carried with it a delicate fragrance of lotus.
"If you stay here, you will surely become the target of everyone's criticism. Why don't you come with us?"
She didn't waste any words.
Both the Emperor's Heart and the Dao Scripture are on Su Ye, and the elders from the various holy lands are already on their way.
A rogue cultivator at the second level of the Dao Palace realm possessed two items that even a Dragon Transformation realm cultivator would envy.
This is not a crime of possessing a treasure, but a death sentence for possessing a treasure.
Su Ye did not respond.
His divine sense also caught those auras, and then he met Yan Ruyu's gaze and nodded.
Yan Ruyu flipped her hand and took the Chaos Green Lotus.
The next moment, a blue light illuminated the sky, and the space in front of her was instantly torn open, creating a passage.
"Walk."
Yan Ruyu stepped into the crevice first, with Qin Yao and two old women protecting her on either side.
Su Ye glanced back at the ruins. He had already cleared away the soul of the Azure Lotus Demon, and Ye Fan and Pang Bo had also escaped in the chaos.
Then he stepped into the blue light.
The crack closed.
The remaining imperial might of the Azure Emperor's weapon completely smoothed out the spatial ripples, leaving not a trace.
The ruins returned to silence.
But this silence lasted for less than two breaths.
Three beams of holy light descended from the sky and landed in the very center of the ruins.
The holy light dissipated, revealing three figures.
They were all Dragon Transformation Elders from the Yao Guang Holy Land, their bodies radiating holy light like flames.
The leader, with gray hair and beard, glanced at the collapsed ancient hall, his expression darkening.
"The aura of the Imperial Weapon has dissipated..."
"We're too late."
His voice wasn't loud, but it still made the blood and qi of the rogue cultivators who hadn't had time to evacuate from the ruins surge.
Several cultivators whose cultivation levels were below the Dao Palace level immediately bled from their mouths and noses and collapsed to the ground.
Another elder bent down and casually grabbed a collapsed demon.
Before the demon could even struggle, a withered hand had already gripped the top of his head.
Soul Search.
The demon's pupils rolled back, and his body convulsed three or four times.
The elder closed his eyes and read for a moment, then casually tossed him to the ground like a used rag.
"The demon princess took away the imperial weapon."
He paused, his tone turning colder.
"And that human rogue cultivator, they escaped together, they must have been a group."
The elder's gaze sharpened.
A rogue cultivator, carrying the Emperor's Heart and the "Daoist Scripture: The Sea of Wheels" chapter, ran away with the demon princess.
The seriousness of this matter has gone beyond the scope of "competing for opportunities".
At that moment, the clouds overhead exploded again.
Four ancient bronze chariots crushed through the clouds as they arrived.
The car body was engraved with densely packed void divine patterns, and the space around it was slightly distorted wherever the wheels rolled.
An elderly man stood on each vehicle, his robe embroidered with the Ji family crest.
Void Secret Technique.
The Ji family's signboard.
The auras of the four Dragon Transformation Realm cultivators descended simultaneously, causing the holy light surrounding the three elders of Yaoguang to falter.
It wasn't that it was suppressed, but rather that the power of the void interfered with the path of divine power.
The two sides faced off across a pile of ruins for a full three breaths.
No one speaks.
Their eyes clashed, their minds probed each other.
The elder Yao Guang, the leader, had already placed his hand on the magical artifact in his sleeve, and the ethereal divine runes of the four elders on the Ji family's war chariot also lit up.
But no one made a move.
The balance between the ancient clans and the sacred lands is fragile.
If things fall apart here, the consequences will be unbearable for both sides.
The leading elder of the Ji family finally spoke, his tone as calm as if he were saying that the weather was nice today.
"Since the demon race got there first, why don't we search the ruins first?"
"So as not to make a wasted trip."
Elder Yaoguang remained silent for a moment before withdrawing his hand.
default.
Several divine thoughts of dragon transformation spread out simultaneously.
The collapsed ancient temple was thoroughly searched from top to bottom.
The aura of the imperial weapon was indeed gone, and the life fluctuations of the imperial heart had also completely dissipated.
But just as everyone was about to stop, an elder of the Ji family touched a very thin layer of restriction deep underground with his divine sense.
The restriction was hidden twenty feet directly beneath a collapsed stone pillar. If it weren't for the penetrating power of the Dragon Transformation Divine Sense far exceeding the Four Extremes, it would have been impossible to discover it.
There's something down there.
The seven of them worked together to break through the barrier.
The restrictions, eroded by millennia of time, had become extremely fragile and could shatter at the slightest blow.
Below was a side hall, no more than three zhang square.
The side room where the Azure Emperor stored the demon race's miscellaneous items in his early years was not an important place, so it didn't even have a proper protective formation.
But precisely because it was unimportant, the contents inside were preserved.
Hundreds of fragments of ancient demon scriptures lay scattered on the ground, varying in quality. Most were handwritten by demon generals at the Dragon Transformation Realm, their remaining Daoist charm already blurred.
In the corner, there were more than ten pieces of ancient spirit jade, their spiritual energy contained yet extremely pure.
Seven or eight broken ritual implements lay haphazardly on the stone platform, their condition still acceptable, though their spiritual essence remained.
Elder Yaoguang was the first to act, and with a flick of his sleeve, he collected half of the scripture fragments.
The four members of the Ji family then worked together to capture the spirit jade and the magical artifact.
Unequal distribution of spoils.
After both sides backed down, the atmosphere had reached its limit.
The eyes of an elder from the Yao Guang clan and an elder from the Ji clan collided in mid-air, sparks almost flying.
But in the end, both sides withdrew.
It's not worth fighting over something so trivial.
Just as the two families were dividing up the remaining treasure, more than a dozen figures in white drifted across the sky.
As her clothes fluttered, petals drifted down, and a delicate fragrance filled the air.
These are fairies from the sacred Jade Pool!
The fairy at the head of the group had a beautiful and otherworldly appearance, and her ethereal temperament was unlike that of a mortal.
She hadn't intended to linger in the ruins, but suddenly paused as she passed overhead.
It felt like I'd been pricked by something.
It was not a fluctuation of divine power, nor the spiritual light of a magical artifact, but an extremely faint and subtle sensation.
That was the aura of the Great Dao's affinity.
The disciples of Yaochi who cultivate the "Western Emperor Scripture" are naturally sensitive to the innate Dao embryo.
Because the Western Emperor attained enlightenment through the innate Dao embryo and founded the Yaochi lineage, the "Western Emperor Scripture" was created based on the innate Dao embryo.
The fairy of Yaochi's pupils contracted.
The aura had been almost completely dissipated by the residual power of the imperial weapon, but she still managed to detect it.
"The innate Dao embryo..."
