Both were stunned by Ye Chen's breakthrough speed. In just over five years, he went from early Deity Transformation to its peak. Such cultivation speed was absurd. Many couldn't even break through Refining Qi that fast.
Regarding Ye Chen's request, Elder Mo had no issue. He'd asked him multiple tis about going to Central Continent, seeming more eager than him, as if itching to flaunt before old friends.
Feng Baiyu, glancing at Ye Chen in surprise, didn't pry. He said, "You need a Unity thod from the Holy Land? That makes believe you might not have the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance."
Heavenly Evolution Holy Land's Holy Sons often ignored the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Scripture, having other inheritances. None requested Unity thods.
Ye Chen, glad soone finally believed he wasn't the Heavenly Emperor's heir, sighed, "Exactly! The Heavenly Emperor Hall is making a scapegoat. I suspect they have a true heir, using to draw fire!"
Feng Baiyu raised a brow, nodding. "Possible. Those who stayed behind had no Dao prospects, useless in the Immortal Realm. Such reclusive forces have little fresh blood, relying on family bloodlines for power. Family forces are often unreliable, depending on the descendants' caliber. The Heavenly Emperor Hall's founder was diocre; later generations likely followed, treating the Hall as their own. In ancient tis, immortal families outnumbered the Holy Lands, but most fell. Holy Lands dominate now."
Ye Chen chuckled. The Holy Master's analysis made sense. The Heavenly Emperor's heir position might've been claid internally.
…
Ye Chen didn't care much. He'd already freeloaded the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid—not a bad deal. He looked at Feng Baiyu. "Holy Master's insight cuts through the fog. It might be true!"
Feng Baiyu grinned. "The Holy Land treasury has a Unity thod from Heavenly Evolution Ancestor, a dual-path of True Self and All Beings, but it's low-grade. I don't recomnd it. Dual-path thods are best with Heaven and Earth Dao, aiding Mahayana's heaven-and-earth comprehension. As Heavenly Evolution's Fourth Holy Son, you'll surpass Hua Yunfei. As Holy Master, I won't let a Unity thod hold you back."
"I have a high-grade Unity thod, All Beings and Heaven and Earth. Not top-grade, but I recomnd it. Top-grade thods are rare, held by the Central Continent's elite Holy Lands or the strongest myriad clans, hard to find. Plus, this high-grade thod has annotations from Chaotic Ancient True Immortal, a top-ten human True Immortal. Its value rivals top-grade thods!"
This book was originally published on . Check it out there for the real experience.
Feng Baiyu spoke proudly, handing Ye Chen a jade slip with grand flair. Ye Chen accepted it eagerly. Flattery paid off. A high-grade Unity thod was imnsely valuable. The Holy Master was generous!
Ye Chen was puzzled. Since when did Chaotic Ancient True Immortal rank among humanity's top ten? Though famous, he was typically listed in the top hundred. The cultivation world loved rankings, and Ye Chen had seen several True Immortal lists—none placed Chaotic Ancient in the top fifty. But he knew Holy Master Feng Baiyu inherited Chaotic Ancient's legacy. Hyping him up made sense; it elevated Fang's own status. So…
Ye Chen stayed silent, not exposing him. But Elder Mo opened her mouth, raising a brow. "Holy Master, when did Chaotic Ancient hit top ten? Top fifty's a stretch. He's known as a brute. Strong, sure, but his insight into Dao and techniques? diocre. I heard he struggled writing his Chaotic Ancient Immortal Scripture, copying chunks of the Great Emperor Scripture. The result? A mid-tier scripture, far inferior to the Great Emperor's. If I knew him, I'd tell him to copy it all. Few learn two immortal scriptures—nobody'd notice. So his annotations? Probably useless."
Feng Baiyu's face soured. "Who calls Chaotic Ancient a brute? He was an invincible True Immortal, crushing all with raw power. Why bother with deep Dao insights? The rumor he copied the Great Emperor Scripture? Laughable. An immortal's actions aren't copying! It's a distant exchange of Dao insights, embedding gains in his scripture! It's respect, got it?"
The Holy Master was riled.
Ye Chen couldn't help but grin. Elder Mo, restored, was getting cheekier. Not wanting to hear Feng Baiyu's lecture on the six differences between reference and plagiarism, Ye Chen bowed. "Thank you, Holy Master, for the thod. I'll return to visit!"
He drifted from Cloud Summit Heaven Palace. Elder Mo nodded earnestly, echoing Feng Baiyu's words, easing his expression. As his protector, he rose to follow. But before leaving, he added, "Holy Master's right, but thinking it over… Take Chaotic Ancient's White Tiger Kill. It's too similar to Imperial Dragon Qi—sa chanics, just swapping dragon for tiger, gold light for silver. Worse, it's less refined than Imperial Dragon Qi. So, Chaotic Ancient definitely copied!"
He bolted, leaving Feng Baiyu clenching his fists… fuming!
…
In the Great Yan Continent's far north, the calm void shattered. A man, radiant as stars, stepped out, holding a jade slip, a smile on his lips.
"Didn't expect Great Yan Continent to hold Star River Immortal's ruins. The gains here will let crush my rival in Central Continent, reclaiming my spot among the top ten prodigies! And I snagged a top-grade Unity thod. Though I'm in Unity, it'll bolster my clan's heritage!"
Satisfied, he muttered, then looked up. "Seventh Ancestor, has the Heavenly Emperor's heir left his Holy Land? Since I'm in the Great Yan Continent, killing that coward would boost our Star River Clan's fa!"
