Chapter 12316: Change of Destiny
Ren Feifan took it. It was a small crystal cylinder with a lotus-shaped base and a precisely structured disc on the top. The gears meshed with each other, and the structure was very delicate.

This is the key to Tianyan Duanjie. It can be any size you want. After being infused with spiritual energy, it can become bigger.

Ren Feifan was quite satisfied with having successfully obtained the Tianyan Severing Realm Cardinal. He said to Ye Chen:
"Ye Chen, I will accompany you back to Jiucang Academy. You can discuss with your teachers and ask them to send someone to guard against the chaos caused by Judgment Immortal Venerable."

"My clone is unable to dominate the scene."

"The reception ceremony will be held in about three days. You can go back to the academy and rest for three days. During these three days, the Tianyun Divine Alliance will go to the Twilight Society again and invite a light catcher to participate in the reception ceremony and guide Ji Siqing's light so that he can ascend smoothly."

Ye Chen said: "Okay."

After the discussion, Ye Chen and Ren Feifan returned to Jiucang College.

Ren Feifan was waiting outside the academy, and Ye Chen returned to the academy on his own and was welcomed like a hero.

Feng Wuya prepared a celebration banquet and invited Ye Chen to take the seat. Everyone celebrated the great victory of the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony. The academy got the key to the Star Abyss of Destruction, and they would not have to worry about cultivation resources for the next hundred years.

Ye Chen had also completed the reinforcement of the seal on the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon, and the hidden danger had been eliminated. Everyone raised their glasses and drank until late at night.

Late at night, Ye Chen, Ling Qingya, Jun Wuhen and Su Liyun returned to Shuilan Peak.

Ling Qingya has already handed the key to the Destroying Star Abyss to Feng Wuya. It won't be long before the academy begins exploring the Destroying Star Abyss.

Compared to exploring the Destroyed Star Abyss, Ling Qingya cares more about Ye Chen's safety.

There was a hint of tenderness in her eyes, and under the bright moon in the middle of the night, she exuded a cool beauty.

“Ye Chen, you will compete with the Four Heavenly Gates in a year. I don’t know who the Four Heavenly Gates will send to fight, but it will definitely be a strong man at the peak of the Abyss Realm.”

"It is almost impossible for you to defeat the Abyss Realm."

Ling Qingya said.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Master, don't worry. There will be a way when the time comes."

Ling Qingya said: "You don't seem to know how powerful the Abyss Realm is."

"Your senior brother happens to be a warrior in the Abyss Realm. You can spar with him."

"Wuhen, draw your sword."

His eyes looked towards Jun Wuhen.

Jun Wuhen's condition had recovered to perfection at this time. He was a warrior in the late stage of the Abyss Realm. After hearing what Ling Qingya said, he immediately responded: "Yes, Queen!"

With a clang, he drew his sword from its sheath, and the tip of the sword stabbed straight at Ye Chen. A deep, dark aura from the abyss surged out from his sword.

Ye Chen's face suddenly changed. There was a bright moon in the sky and the moonlight was clear in front of him. But after Jun Wuhen drew his sword, he suddenly had the illusion that the world had fallen into darkness and he couldn't see his hand in front of him.

No, this is not an illusion, this is a real feeling!
Jun Wuhen thrust out a sword, unleashing the pressure of the abyss. The darkness of the abyss enveloped Ye Chen, and the world in front of him fell into endless darkness.

This is the suppression of realm!
In an instant, Ye Chen felt that all the light inside and outside his body was cut off.

The Samsara Cemetery, the Emperor's Sword, and many other divine powers were all locked in darkness and could not be used.

This is simply terrifying. All the trump cards are sunk into darkness and cannot be used. This level of suppression is simply unreasonable.

"Yehuang Sutra, I am in darkness!"

Ye Chen made a quick decision, he shouted in his heart, and used the Night Emperor's magic. He seemed to merge into the darkness, greatly dissolving Jun Wuhen's suppression from the abyss realm.

He saw the light in the darkness, and all the cards that he had been unable to mobilize just now could now be used again.

"The Divine Power of the Abyss!"

Ye Chen mobilized the divine power of the cancer again, and put on a black robe of the abyss. He seemed to have become the dark abyss itself, and was not afraid of the suppression of the abyss at all.

The Emperor's sword swung out, and the distorted divine energy from the abyss exploded. A filthy, black, pus-oozing strange sword energy, like a thousand-year-old filthy corpse water mixed with a poisonous stench, slashed towards Jun Wuhen.

Jun Wuhen was shocked. He didn't expect that Ye Chen could actually fight back under the suppression of his realm!
At this moment, Ye Chen's control over the abyss even surpassed him.

He just wanted to spar with her, and didn't use much strength, or even one tenth of his strength, but Ye Chen fought back with all his strength.

Caught off guard, Jun Wuhen was hit by Ye Chen's sword. The abyss sword light cut through his chest, and poisonous blood flowed out. He groaned, retreated, and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

Ye Chen woke up as if from a dream, and quickly put away his sword, saying: "Brother, are you okay?"

Jun Wuhen was eroded by the abyss, his face turned black and he was unable to speak.

Ye Chen quickly used the secret method of abundance to treat him. Jun Wuhen finally took a breath, but his expression was dull. He said:
"Lord of Samsara, you... you can actually defeat the abyss?"

Ling Qingya and Su Liyun were also shocked. They didn't expect that in this competition, Ye Chen would actually kill Jun Wuhen.

Ling Qingya's original intention was to ask Jun Wuhen to suppress Ye Chen so that Ye Chen could experience the horror of the Abyss Realm.

But unexpectedly, Ye Chen actually killed him back.
Ye Chen said: "It was just luck. Senior brother hasn't used his full strength yet. I can feel his strength."

Normally, Ye Chen would not be able to defeat Jun Wuhen in the Abyss Realm, but Jun Wuhen was careless and did not use his full strength. Otherwise, Ye Chen would not have been able to kill him with just one sword.

Ling Qingya showed a thoughtful expression and said, "Ye Chen, can you ignore the suppression of the Abyss Realm?"

Ye Chen shook his head solemnly and said, "No, actually, I was suppressed just now, and I just resisted in time."

"I have the means to resist the Abyss, but it will take time."

"Brother, give me some time, but the enemy may not be so."

In the competition just now, Jun Wuhen's realm suppression had actually taken effect.

For at least a moment, Ye Chen fell into endless darkness, like a lamb to be slaughtered.

If Jun Wuhen had the intention to kill, he could have killed Ye Chen in that moment.

In the Dragon Competition one year later, Ye Chen faced an even more powerful Abyss Realm warrior. The opponent adhered to the will of the Four Heavenly Gates and would definitely not show mercy. If there was even a chance, he would tear Ye Chen into pieces.

At that time, Ye Chen would not have time to use all his methods and would be killed by the opponent!
When Ling Qingya saw Ye Chen's solemn expression, she knew that he already knew the power of the Abyss Realm, and nodded:

"It's good that you understand the gap between yourself and the Abyss Realm. During this year, you should practice well."

"I don't expect you to win this dragon fighting competition, as long as you don't die."

As she spoke, she gently took Ye Chen's hand, with concern in her eyes.

Jun Wuhen and Su Liyun, who were standing by, both felt vaguely that this was not just the master's concern for his disciple, but also seemed to carry a bit of lover's attachment.

Afterwards, Ling Qingya took Ye Chen's hand and returned to Shuilan Peak with Su Liyun, while Jun Wuhen still lived at the foot of the mountain.

The three of them returned to the mountain. The Quetzalcoatl in the Shuijing Lake popped up and saw Ye Chen coming back. His eyes lit up and he laughed:
"Lord of the Wheel of Reincarnation, you are finally back. Congratulations on achieving the Sun and Moon Dao, winning the Martial Arts Championship, and taming the Scarlet Sky Candle Dragon!"

"It's incredible, it's incredible!"

It has obviously already glimpsed the various secrets of the outside world.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "It was just luck."

Quetzalcoatl said: "The martial arts performance is over. It's time for you to find a way to go to the Namo Death Realm and rescue Lord Luoshen."

All it wants is to rescue Cangtian Luoyue.

Hearing this, Ye Chen's heart trembled, he pondered for a moment, and said:
"I have one more thing to take care of."

He also wants to guide Ji Siqing to ascend.

Quetzalcoatl said unhappily: "What else? You promised me that you would go to rescue people after the martial arts performance. Are you afraid of death and dare not go to the Namo Death Realm?" His tone was very stern.

Ye Chen hurriedly said: "No."

He sighed, feeling quite guilty, and said to himself: "Luo Yue, I'm sorry."

In his heart, Ji Siqing is more important.

When Ren Feifan said he wanted to guide Ji Siqing, he agreed immediately. As for the matter of redeeming Cangtian Luoyue, he completely threw it to the wind.

Thinking of Cangtian Luoyue, who was alone and helpless in the Namu Death Realm, he felt extremely guilty.

"Senior Quetzalcoatl, I need to pick up a friend and let him ascend."

"Wait for me to pick up my friend, and then I'll go with her to rescue Luo Yue. This way it will be safer."

Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said.

Three days later, the ceremony to welcome Ji Siqing will begin, and this matter cannot be delayed.

As for Cang Tian Luo Yue, her light sank into the Starry Sky Taoist Book, and she would be fine for the time being.

After weighing the priorities, it is obviously more important to guide Ji Siqing.

After Ye Chen picked up the people, he planned to go to Nanwu Death Realm with Ji Siqing to rescue them. This would be safer, and he would make it up to Cangtian Luoyue.

"Are you going to take the Saint of Fate to Ascension?"

Quetzalcoatl's eyes flickered, and after hearing what Ye Chen said, he probably got a glimpse of the secret.

Ye Chen said: "Yes."

Quetzalcoatl was silent, snorted, and said, "Forget it, I am not unreasonable. I will give you time to pick up the person, but after you rescue Lady Luoshen, you must not let her down!"

Ye Chen said: "Of course."

Quetzalcoatl stopped talking and went back to the bottom of the lake in a depressed mood.

Ye Chen sighed, looked at Ling Qingya, and said: "Master..."

He wanted to pick up Ji Siqing, and needed someone to help keep the situation under control to prevent the Fate Judgment Hall and the Immortal Lord of Judgment from causing trouble.

Ling Qingya said: "I know that you want to guide the Saint of Fate, and you need my help to hold the fort, right?"

Ye Chen said: "Yes!"

Ling Qingya asked: "That Saintess of Destiny, is she your Taoist partner?"

Ye Chen was silent for a moment, then said: "Yes..."

There was a hint of displeasure in Ling Qingya's eyes, and she seemed a little jealous, but in the end she still looked generous, crossed her arms and said:

"I can help you, but your Taoist partner has ascended. You must not bother me anymore, and you must not do anything frivolous to me anymore."

Ye Chen smiled bitterly. He could hear Ling Qingya's inner thoughts. She obviously liked him and was obviously jealous and angry, but on the surface she still pretended to be unkind.

"I will follow Master's teachings."

Ye Chen didn't point it out, he really didn't want to get into any more romantic troubles.

Su Liyun was stunned as she watched from the side, and felt that the relationship between Ye Chen and Ling Qingya did not seem like that of master and disciple anymore.

Ling Qingya said, "The ceremony will be held in three days, right? I can only help you to calm down and prevent outsiders from causing trouble. As for whether the reception ceremony can be successful, I can't guarantee it."

"The Saint of Fate is not yet at the level to ascend. If you force her to ascend, you are actually helping her to sneak across the sky. This will definitely violate the rules of heaven and earth. If there is any mistake, she will be crushed by the heavenly tribulation and the starry sky disaster. You should carefully consider the risks involved."

Ye Chen said: "Yes, Master, I will pay attention, as long as you help to hold the line."

After the discussion was over, Ye Chen went back to his room to rest.

There are still three days left before the reception ceremony begins. During these three days, he plans to consolidate his own cultivation.

His current cultivation level is at the high level of the second level of the Sun and Moon Realm. He has already attained the Tao of the sun and the moon. Under the starry sky, he feels that his breathing is much smoother.

The Heart of Heavenly Fire and the Heart of Scarlet Sky Dragon are both inside his body. His body is very full of Yang energy. If the Yang energy is too strong, it will easily burn his body and bones. He needs to balance Yin and Yang.

If Ji Siqing ascends to heaven, with a woman by his side, Ye Chen's excessive yang energy can be vented, and his aura will become much more harmonious and stable.

"Siqing..."

Thinking of Ji Siqing's graceful figure, Ye Chen's heart was slightly moved.

One woman is not enough. After successfully bringing Ji Siqing to the other side, he also wants to bring Xia Ruoxue, Wei Ying, Sun Yi and others to the other side of the starry sky.

Calming his breath and concentrating his mind, Ye Chen felt his body. In the Samsara Cemetery, the Scarlet Sky Dragon's Heart was hanging like the sun. Every beat of the dragon's heart would emit a rich and blazing breath that flowed from the Samsara Cemetery to his limbs and bones.

There is also the Heart of Heavenly Fire, which is burning fiercely in his dantian, continuously providing the blazing and terrifying Heavenly Fire spiritual energy.

Ye Chen did not need to refine it deliberately. The spiritual energy provided by the Scarlet Sky Dragon Heart and the Sky Fire Heart was constantly nourishing him and strengthening his cultivation. After a few breaths, his cultivation level actually broke through again and he was promoted to the peak of the second level of the Sun and Moon Realm.

"Very good. With the help of Scarlet Sky Dragon Heart and Skyfire Heart, my cultivation can be steadily improved. It won't be a problem to upgrade all the way to the late stage of Sun and Moon Realm."

"But, this level of cultivation is still far from enough to defeat the Abyss Realm."

Ye Chen thought about it, and recalled the sparring session with Jun Wuhen just now, and felt a little scared.

Although he killed Jun Wuhen as a result of the competition, he was actually suppressed for a moment. He was completely suppressed by the darkness and could not use any of his trump cards.

That feeling of darkness and helplessness, although it only lasted for a short moment, brought Ye Chen endless tremors.

If it was a life-and-death fight, he would have been killed thousands of times by the suppression of that one breath of realm.

Senior brother is much stronger than me.

Not to mention everyone else.

Perhaps there are many disciples from the four major academies who can suppress and seriously injure him.

“Heavenly Ancestor…”

Ye Chen felt that this state of suppression was really difficult to resolve, so he tried to communicate with Tianzu.

He needs the blessing of the Heavenly Ancestor to ensure his immortality.

Although Emperor Jinyu said that he would protect Ye Chen, Ye Chen felt that it was not reliable enough. His life was at stake, and he needed the help of the Heavenly Ancestor.

"Ye Chen, congratulations."

Tianzu sent a reply, first congratulating Ye Chen.

"Tianzu, don't congratulate me yet, my situation is not good."

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said.

Tianzu said: "I know that one year later, you will have to fight against a warrior in the Abyss Realm, which will be very difficult."

"Do you want me to protect you? Alas, I am already a decayed coward. I just want to sink into oblivion and wait for the day when you will devour me."

"In fact, you don't need my protection. I believe that you are strong enough to defeat the warriors in the Abyss Realm with your own strength."

Ye Chen said: "How to win, I can't see the way."

Theoretically, as long as he could hold out for a moment and suppress the darkness, he could fight back.

But that moment of darkness was the deciding moment of life and death, and Ye Chen was not sure he could survive it.

Tianzu said: "If there is no way, then make one yourself. Others can suppress you, and you can also suppress others."

"Your realm is insufficient, but you have the Pillar God Technique. You only need to practice my Reincarnation Burial Technique to the fifth level of 'Burying the Gods'."

"You use the God Burial Reincarnation Technique to attack first. Before the enemy's abyss suppression can erupt, the darkness will be buried and crushed by you. In this way, you have a chance of winning."

"Strike first, use the God Burying Reincarnation Method..." Ye Chen's heart moved, and Tianzu's words woke him up.

At present, his Reincarnation Burial Technique has been cultivated to the fourth level of Soul Burial. If he can go one step further and enter the realm of God Burial, he can take the initiative and possibly crush the abyss.

He always thought about defense and how to resolve the suppression of his realm, but in fact, the best defense is offense.

As long as he takes the initiative and suppresses the enemy's realm and prevents him from exerting his power, he has a chance of winning!

"I understand!"

Ye Chen saw the light and nodded seriously.

The Abyss Realm is not irreversible. As long as he can cultivate his Reincarnation Burial Technique to the fifth level, he will have the possibility of taking the initiative and directly counterattacking!
Tianzu smiled and said, "Very good, you are very smart."

After a pause, he continued, "Wait a year from now, when the Dragon Fighting Competition is over, if you win, it will prove that you have enough strength. At that time, you can eat me."
