Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

Page 252

Ye Chen had no idea what the three clans were planning.

Or perhaps he simply doesn't care what these people think...

Ye Chen already knew the location of the ancient emperor's cave, but without the complete ancient emperor jade, he couldn't open the cave space, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Of course, now that the Soul Emperor has collected all eight pieces of the Ancient Emperor Jade, he will definitely go to great lengths to find the location of the Ancient Emperor's Cave.

Although the Soul Clan suffered heavy losses in this great war, it shouldn't take too long to find the Black Corner Region, so Ye Chen plans to take advantage of this time to improve himself.

Of course, before that, Ye Chen also made sure to ask Zi Yan to bring a few more powerful helpers from Dragon Island. If he really got to the Ancient Emperor's Cave, he would still need some strong people to help him.

After all, by then, his enemies might not just be the Soul Emperor, but also include Gu Yuan, the Thunder Clan, and the Flame Clan...

He entered the "Number One" star field space again through the star gate... This was the number Ye Chen assigned to the first complete space that had taken shape in his star field. There would be a second, a third... all the way up to the 108th!

As for the specific names of these spaces, we'll have to wait until they develop into a complete material world.

However, this time Ye Chen is prepared to personally undertake a seemingly crazy attempt...

Within the empty space, a towering fire lotus stood in the center of the sky and earth, and beneath the fire lotus was a black flame that constantly changed shape.

Compared to the enormous fire lotus, this black flame seemed so small, yet with each flicker of its flame, the ten-thousand-foot-tall fire lotus would tremble, clearly being deeply affected by it.

Ye Chen's immense soul power swept across the entire space, and he discovered that the space had more than doubled in size compared to when he last came here...

"As expected, this space has not yet reached its full potential!"

Actually, it's not hard to guess. After all, the original spatial range was only about the size of Zhongzhou, which was far smaller than the complete Dou Qi Continent!

When Ye Chen broke through to the Emperor Realm here last time, he had already calculated the time flow here compared to the outside world. It was about a hundred times faster here than on the Dou Qi Continent. In other words, one day on the Dou Qi Continent was equivalent to one hundred days here...

Now that Ye Chen has returned here, he finds that the flow of time has slowed down considerably, to more than seventy times the normal speed.

Unexpectedly, the flow of time in this space has slowed down...

Or, as the spatial scope continues to grow, the time periods of the two will gradually converge and evolve.

This was the first time Ye Chen had encountered such a situation, and he couldn't figure out the specific reason for it for a while. After all, in the Dou Qi Continent, even if one reached the Dou Di level, one could at most control the rules of space, but had no way to control the rules of time.

From this point of view alone, does it mean that even a Dou Di powerhouse is inferior to those "primordial great beings" who have transcended the river of time?

Of course, these are just Ye Chen's own imaginations, so it's best not to take them too seriously...

Even if the time flow rate is reduced to only seventy times, a month on the Dou Qi Continent would be several years here. Therefore, what Ye Chen is about to do will not have any impact on the outside world.

With that in mind, Ye Chen no longer had any worries...

"Jinglian, let it go..."

Ye Chen's calm voice rang out, and the next moment, the originally towering fire lotus instantly dissipated, then transformed into the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, which bore a seven-tenths resemblance to Ye Chen.

However, compared to the previous milky-white appearance of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, the Pure Lotus was now wearing a black robe, which, combined with his original appearance, gave him a mysterious and eerie feeling.

The reason for this change is, of course, that the Pure Lotus Demon Flame had devoured too much black flame, and it couldn't fully digest it in a short time...

Having lost the Pure Lotus Demon Flame

The suppression caused what was originally just a ball of pitch-black flames to erupt suddenly, and in just a moment, it had already occupied half of the sky in the entire space.

"Hahaha... Ye Chen, I knew it! You're still ten thousand years away from suppressing me!"

Freed from its suppression, the Void Devouring Flame was finally released. The pitch-black flames transformed into a gigantic human face, which looked down at the tiny Ye Chen and his companion, and laughed wildly.

"hehe……"

Ye Chen chuckled lightly, but he had no intention of arguing with this guy.

That makes sense. After all, the other party is about to contribute to the creation of the material world for him. What's wrong with letting him shout a few times to vent his frustration?

Ye Chen's nonchalant demeanor made the Void Devouring Flame instinctively sense something was wrong, and even its laughter was swallowed in half...

Finally, the Void Devouring Flame realized something was wrong.

Because at this moment, I found myself in a completely unfamiliar world...

Although he could sense that the world was filled with a powerful energy of heaven and earth, he was completely unable to absorb and transform it, and even his ability to devour was ineffective...

This completely terrified Void Devouring Flame!

Although his current outburst looks quite terrifying, without the means to absorb energy for replenishment, he simply cannot withstand Ye Chen, who already possesses an Emperor-level soul, in his current state. Therefore, it can be said that the other party had already prepared the chopping block for him, just waiting for him to be served...

"Tsk, I'm having trouble adjusting to the new environment. Looks like it'll be a big problem no matter where I go..."

Of course, this is not the biggest reason for all of this.

The biggest reason is that this space was originally formed from the star palace in Ye Chen's star chart. Strictly speaking, although it has already connected with the real universe, it is still under the control of the star chart, which means it is under Ye Chen's control...

Therefore, here, Ye Chen is the supreme ruler, controlling all the rules here. If he wants to isolate the energy conversion of the Void Devouring Flame, isn't that something he can do with a flick of his finger?

"Alright, stop thinking about it. From now on, just obediently submit to my control..."

"Don't even think about it. Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me..."

Enraged and shocked, the Void Devouring Flame roared and then controlled the sky full of black flames to sweep towards Ye Chen.

"Tsk, didn't I tell you? Here, everything is under the control of the demon..." Ye Chen shook his head, a helpless expression on his face. Then, the terrifying Emperor-level soul between his brows erupted, and a terrifying power encompassing the entire world instantly enveloped everything...

next moment,

The originally overwhelming black flames were directly bound and compressed by this force, and then became smaller and smaller.

"No! This can't be...this can't be!"

The terrified screams of the Void Devouring Flame could not be heard...

"Let me go, let me go..."

"I'm willing to become your master, just like the Pure Lotus Demon Flame... Master, please spare me..."

Clearly, this Void Devouring Flame was not a warrior who was willing to die for his country. Seeing that he was now unable to resist Ye Chen, he immediately changed his tune and started calling him "master".

"When you were captured by the Soul Clan, were you also begging for mercy like this?" Ye Chen glanced contemptuously at the Void Devouring Flame, which was howling like an abandoned stray dog, and said indifferently, "However, I still prefer your arrogant and unruly demeanor just now..."

After all, it is a naturally born strange fire, and it is a terrifying existence that can rank second on the Strange Fire Ranking. If we use the Void Devouring Flame as a blueprint to create a continent, it would be a very worthwhile thing.

However, every material world needs balance; it's impossible for only one element to exist. Therefore, after the Void Devouring Flame was created, it still needed to be combined with all other elements to make it work.

For example, the Dou Qi Continent is a giant continent created by the basic five elements, plus the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements and the extensions of each element...

With Ye Chen's current abilities, it is obviously impossible for him to create such a continent. Even if he has the ambition, his strength does not allow it.

Therefore, after thinking it over, Ye Chen decided to first construct a small continent using the most basic five elements.

Even so, it's not an easy task...

Fortunately, in the Dou Qi Continent, experts who have reached the Dou Sheng realm can create their own space. Although these spaces rely on the Dou Qi Continent space for existence, and the elements needed to construct the material world are provided by the main space, it is completely different from what Ye Chen is doing now, but it still gave him some reference.

"If we don't have enough elements, we'll make up for it with the source..."

In the beginning, all spaces were devoid of any material world. Only after countless years of evolution, as the primordial energy from the universe accumulated to a certain concentration, did corresponding rules naturally emerge. These rules then evolved elements to construct the world...

This is the process of the birth of everything in the universe, simple yet complex.

Although Ye Chen's first space has not yet grown to the point where it can generate rules, he himself is the rule!

Therefore, Ye Chen can completely skip the most lengthy step and directly use those cosmic origins to evolve the elements he needs, and then construct the continent!

The process is clear, so now it's time to get started...

Ye Chen sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and then his Emperor-level soul power erupted completely, instantly capturing all the cosmic origins within the space.

Because his soul had undergone a transformation under the influence of the cosmic origin, when he came into contact with this cosmic origin again, he was like a fledgling bird returning to its nest, immediately merging into it...

After several attempts, Ye Chen began to slowly manipulate these primal forces to transform them...

The first thing to appear was a vibrant green wood element, resembling a clump of green swamp. It started as a fist-sized lump, then another, and another...

Until these clumps of wood elements had condensed to a size of a hundred feet, they continued to wriggle and merge, gradually taking shape.

It is said that wood is the beginning of the five elements, and water is the end of the five elements!

Moreover, Ye Chen's own star essence attribute is primarily wood with secondary fire, so he initially condensed the wood element.

The five elements generate each other: wood generates fire!

However, with the existence of the Void Devouring Flame, Ye Chen had no shortage of fire elements, so he directly used wood to nourish the fire, transforming it into earth. Gradually, a mass of yellowish-brown earth elements appeared in the space...

Then earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, and after a complete cycle, Ye Chen has a complete foundation for the continent.

It's like building a house. Once the foundation is laid, the rest is simple; you just need to add walls according to the foundation...

Ye Chen remained seated quietly in the void, his eyes closed, his powerful soul force constantly controlling everything.

Beside her, the Pure Lotus Demon Flame stared blankly at everything, a look of terror flashing in its eyes.

Especially after seeing the Void Devouring Flame forcibly returned to its original form and became the fire element in this world, he couldn't help but tremble.

Master, you're not going to put me in next, are you?

Well... probably not. After all, I'm extremely loyal to my master, and he's been so good to me and trusts me so much...

No, definitely not!

And so, as the Pure Lotus Demon Flame continued its struggle, time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, according to the calculations of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, the two of them had been in this space for nearly ten years.

Throughout this process, Ye Chen never opened his eyes once. Even when his soul power was about to be exhausted, he would use the power of origin to replenish it directly.

Even when the body can't take it anymore, the same thing will happen...

However, a small accident occurred in the middle of it.

Ye Chen's soul was transformed and metamorphosed by this primal power, but his body was not... Moreover, those who possess primal power are not ordinary.

This is something that a Dou Sheng's body can withstand. Xiao Yan in the original novel also encountered this, and was even directly blasted into a blood mist, a situation similar to Ye Chen's soul body back then.

However, as long as the soul does not perish, even if the physical body disintegrates, it can still be reshaped under the miraculous effect of the power of origin, so it does not have a great impact on Ye Chen.

Moreover, Ye Chen actually benefited from the misfortune. Because his body was reconstructed, it adapted to the new energy situation in the space, causing the energy in his body to transform from battle qi into a new kind of existence... Ye Chen judged it to be the same spiritual power as the Great Thousand World!

In other words, Ye Chen unintentionally bypassed the transformation from battle qi to spiritual power...

This transformation has both advantages and disadvantages for Ye Chen.

The positive aspect goes without saying: the high-level energy state gives it power far exceeding that of battle qi. In fact, in a clash between the two, battle techniques driven by the low-quality energy state of battle qi would be easily destroyed by Ye Chen's more powerful spiritual energy!

As for the downside, his cultivation level, which had already reached the Seven-Star Dou Sheng realm, simply vanished...

Chapter 535 Supreme

Of course, losing fighting spirit does not mean losing strength.

Moreover, the entire battle qi of a seven-star Dou Sheng is also a very large amount of energy. According to the basic rule of energy conservation, this energy is still scattered around Ye Chen and has an extraordinary connection with him.

He can quickly reabsorb this energy and regain his power whenever he wants.

However, just as he was preparing to restore his cultivation, Ye Chen hesitated...

He had always cultivated the Astrology Technique, a high-level Heaven-rank technique left behind by the Star Emperor. As for the Myriad Transformations Star Scripture, it was created by the Star Emperor when he traveled to the endless starry sky after advancing to the Dou Di realm. It was a higher-level technique than Dou Qi techniques, so Ye Chen had never been able to cultivate it.

So, is this the best opportunity for me to switch to this cultivation method?

Ye Chen decided to give it a try...

Having made his decision, the information about the "Myriad Transformations Star Codex" that had been hidden deep within Ye Chen instantly surfaced before his eyes.

"To transform oneself into stars and the universe, and to evolve all laws..."

The profound and obscure incantations, like the ancient chimes of a bell, quietly echoed in Ye Chen's mind. He quickly focused his mind and memorized these cultivation incantations.

The next moment, a very subtle fluctuation appeared in the energy between heaven and earth. Ye Chen felt a cool sensation spreading from the top of his head to his limbs and bones...

This period of time did not last very long, or in Ye Chen's perception it was only a moment, after which he noticed obvious changes in his body.

Originally, the energy within his body was a silvery ball about the size of an egg, much like the Dou Crystal that formed when he reached the Great Dou Master level during his Dou Qi cultivation...

However, the battle crystals of a Great Battle Master are rhomboid in shape and much smaller in size.

As the energy continued to circulate, the silver energy cluster grew smaller and smaller. Just when Ye Chen thought it would condense into a solid form like battle qi, he saw that what Qi Haizhong presented was actually a silver spiritual energy halo...

This spiritual energy wheel was several times smaller than the previous energy cloud, but Ye Chen could feel that the energy it contained was much more powerful than before.

"What is this? Spiritual Wheel? I've reached the Spiritual Wheel Realm? So this Myriad Transformations Star Scripture really is a cultivation method of the Great Thousand Worlds..."

In fact, Ye Chen had already guessed this.
