Glancing at the jade slip's contents, Ye Chen smirked.
Good news: the old Sect Master wasn't dead. Bad news: he soon would be, with only two years left.
He hoped Ye Chen and Gu Yunyun could visit before his end. He also ntioned Fa Zhen, the Magic Peak disciple, now Golden Core, taking over as the next Green Cloud Sect Master. Then, he lanted a 3,000-pound dragon-blooded demon fish that slipped away.
Ye Chen smiled. He'd been tracking longevity dicines, but they were too rare. Even Heavenly Evolution Holy Land had so, but they were strategic reserves, usable only in dire tis by top powerhouses to prevent decline. Neither Holy Son nor Holy Master could easily access them. Before, Ye Chen might've visited with his master to bid farewell. Now, the old Sect Master needn't die.
During his half-year seclusion, Ye Chen erged weekly, staying inford. He knew of the Endless Sea's events, its proximity to Great Yan, and Heavenly Evolution's search efforts. He'd planned to head there post-seclusion. The prodigy gathering? He didn't care. To him, peers were ants—even the Chaos Body's strength was irrelevant; only its multiplier mattered. Storing the jade slip, he gifted Mo Yuzhu a treasure and flew to Cloud Summit Heaven Palace.
eting the Holy Master, he stated his intent. Feng Baiyu frowned. "Alkaid praised you in Central Continent, calling you the era's top, with a Sacred Body, likeliest to ascend. You're a target now. The longevity dicine hunt draws countless prodigies, likely sparking chaos, all aiming for you. They'll bring protectors. Heavenly Evolution can't touch them and might be blocked, unable to aid you in danger. Best to skip the Endless Sea."
Ye Chen knew of Alkaid's hype. He admired Alkaid's eye for recognizing his invincibility in one eting—promising. But his vision was narrow; Ye Chen's physique surpassed the Ancient Desolation Sacred Body. He suspected Alkaid practiced the Indestructible Heavenly Art, with Ying Tiansheng as his "dicine," stolen by Ye Chen, sparking his grudge and public targeting. Hearing Alkaid would join the Endless Sea hunt, Ye Chen saw a chance to crush him and harvest his origin for the fiancée.

Smiling at Feng Baiyu, he said, "No worries—they're no match for combined."
Feng Baiyu, sensing arrogance, advised gravely, "Don't get cocky. I thought myself invincible once, got beaten, and suffered greatly. Later, I realized pride doesn't solve everything."
Ye Chen shook his head. "That just ans you weren't strong enough!"
Feng Baiyu's lips twitched. He wanted to argue, but Ye Chen's absurd combat power silenced him. Curiously, he said, "I didn't expect you to have a Sacred Body! You're even better at hiding than your Senior Brother! With a Sacred Body and Primordial Supre Heart, your father must be the Heavenly Emperor. We're so close, yet you hide this? It breaks my heart."
Ye Chen's mouth twitched. "I don't have a Sacred Body. Alkaid's hyping up to make a target, just like the Heavenly Emperor Hall using as a decoy."
Feng Baiyu was skeptical but, seeing Ye Chen's resolve, approved his Endless Sea trip. However, he'd bolster the escort. Elder Mo alone wasn't enough for Ye Chen's talent. He considered adding two elders, even a Third Heaven elder.
Days later, news confird the Cave Heaven's location. Heavenly Evolution had to act fast to compete. Ye Chen, unwilling to miss out, set off with the elders.
…
A once-quiet part of the Endless Sea now bustled. Skyships floated above, prodigies gathered—so alone at the helm, others drinking and debating with friends. Many knew they had no shot but ca for the spectacle or a slim chance at the longevity dicine.
Suddenly, a massive skyship, blotting out the sky, arrived recklessly, smashing several smaller ships. Prodigies barely escaped.
An early-Unity prodigy roared, "Who dares act so arrogantly?"
A cold snort from the ship turned his face pale, blood seeping from his lips, eyes wide with fear. The crowd gasped—a re snort injuring a Unity prodigy? Who was this?
Purple mist and monstrous demonic aura surged from the ship. A vague, towering figure stood at the helm, piercing purple eyes like divine lightning through the fog, awe-inspiring. The crowd's hearts sank, recognizing the Heavenly Demon Body. The injured prodigy lowered his head; others swallowed their complaints. Resentnt simred.
Then, a figure floated in, casting divine light to heal the injured prodigy and dispel the Heavenly Demon Body's pressure. A faint laugh followed, "Why so domineering, Brother Yao Yuekong?"
The Heavenly Demon Body snorted but stayed silent. As the newcor stood clear, eyes lit up—Alkaid Holy Son, fearless against the Heavenly Demon Body.
Soon, another skyship arrived. A woman stood at its helm, lodious music with Dao charm resonating behind her, marking her extraordinariness…
