Chapter 12388 Refining

Chapter 12388 Refining
Ye Chen left Queen Liuguang's palace and breathed a sigh of relief.

Queen Liuguang did not rebel and was willing to recognize him as her master. This was naturally great news for him and saved him a lot of trouble.

However, the heavenly punishment that Queen Liuguang mentioned is indeed very severe.

He killed and insulted God, and violated the great rules of heaven and earth. He will surely be punished by God in the future.

He now has a profound understanding of Taoism and can settle sins without incurring heavenly punishment, but he always has moments of weakness.

Once he becomes weak, heavenly punishment and thunder may strike at any time.

"Forget it. I'll find a way to deal with the matter of heavenly punishment later."

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain."

"Now, let's find a way to leave the Tomb of the Gods first."

Ye Chen gathered his thoughts and came to another place in hell. There was a straight spear stuck in the ground. It was the Red-Edged Spear.

The iron chains of hell tightly wrapped around the Red Blade Spear.

After Ye Chen arrived, a divine light emerged from the Red Blade Spear, and the Red King's image appeared.

"Lord of Reincarnation, you are here."

"It's amazing that you were able to subdue the Heavenly Emperor's Fate Star. I thought you were going to die."

When Chi Wang saw Ye Chen coming, he burst into laughter.

He was bound by the iron chains of hell, so he was naturally uncomfortable. However, compared with the great calamity of Burning Heaven, this small calamity of a prisoner was nothing.

Now the Red King’s body has been restored to its original state, but he only has a body and no soul.

His soul is still struggling in the abyss of the sea of ​​destruction.

Queen Liuguang spent tremendous effort to climb out of the abyss, but King Chi did not have this ability, and his soul is still suffering in the abyss.

Therefore, the Red King currently living in the Red Edge Spear is actually an empty shell. Although he has a complete body, he does not have any soul. His overall strength is equivalent to that of an ordinary Heavenly Dao Realm expert.

Ye Chen has the help of the Blood Dragon and the Red Sky Candle Dragon. The Red King, who is just an empty shell, is no match for Ye Chen, so he can only be imprisoned here.

The Red King was free and easy. After all, he had experienced the pain of the abyss, so being tied up by a few chains was nothing.

"I want to wield the Spear of Scourge. Do you have any objection?"

Ye Chen walked over and reached out to grab the Red Blade Spear.

The Red King laughed and said, "Haha, I dare not."

"Anyway, you will die in the future, either by being killed by Brother Huang or by being punished by heaven."

"It doesn't matter if I stay as a prisoner for a few days."

"It would be more satisfying for you to be killed by my elder brother Huang."

Ye Chen was speechless, he just pulled up the Red Blade Spear, and the chains fell off one by one.

As a newborn, he wants to control all the power he can control. The Spear of Retribution is the hero's authority, so he naturally cannot give it up.

However, the existence of the Red King made Ye Chen a little troubled.

This Red Blade Spear was forged from the bones of the Red King. Without the Red King's approval, it would be difficult for him to unleash the true power of the Spear of Condemnation.

Ye Chen and the Ghost Emperor Jiang Su are destined to have a war in the future. Chi Wang is Jiang Su's younger brother, so he naturally will not recognize Ye Chen.

This matter is a bit tricky. There is no point in suppressing the Red King with tough means. After all, he is just an empty shell.

Moreover, if you continue to enslave the Pillar God, the punishment from heaven may become more severe in the future.

If something is difficult to deal with, just put it aside for now.

Ye Chen thought so in his mind, pulled out the Red Blade Spear, and then put it into his body.

The Red King was also sensible. He did not resist at all and obediently retreated into the Red Blade Spear.

Anyway, in his eyes, Ye Chen was already a corpse and would die in a year at most, so why should he resist and bring humiliation upon himself?
Once Jiang Su kills Ye Chen, he will be free.

Ye Chen put away the Red Blade Spear and left hell. He felt his body and found that it had become more solid and his flesh was much stronger than before.

He continued to practice breathing exercises, summoned the Hongmeng Green Lotus Platform, and took back his soul that was parasitic on it.

Previously, the Hongmeng Qinglian Platform had been burned by the Heavenly Emperor's Life Star and had shown signs of being charred.

But now, the whole green lotus looks pure and quiet again, without any signs of damage or burning.

This green lotus obviously has the ability to self-repair, which is very powerful.

Ye Chen was quite impressed and carefully put the Green Lotus away. He then spent another two days consolidating his body and harmonizing his internal energy. He felt that there were signs of a breakthrough in his cultivation.

And in the past few days, as Ye Chen refined the Starry Sky Taoist Book, Cang Tian Luo Yue and the Eagle of Death were also free.

Cang Tian Luo Yue's spirit was previously eroded by the spiritual energy of the Starry Sky Taoist Book and was filled with starlight, which even caused her to lose many memories.

Now that Ye Chen has refined the Starry Sky Taoist Book, the spiritual energy of the starry sky is no longer harmful, and Cang Tian Luo Yue's condition is recovering rapidly.

Now that she has recovered, Quetzalcoatl no longer needs to watch over her all the time.

And the Eagle of Death no longer needs to suppress the starry sky, it is free.

In this way, in addition to the blood dragon, Ye Chen has two more combat pets. Quetzalcoatl and Death Eagle are both trump cards with powerful strength, and the Death Eagle is stronger.

Ye Chen felt that even if the Mad King came, he would be able to deal with it and it wouldn't be as difficult as before.

But there is no point in fighting the Mad King, and there is no benefit in defeating him.

Ye Chen just wanted to leave. There were still many secrets in the Tomb of the Gods, but now was not the time to explore. He had to leave as soon as possible.

The secret of the Bloody Path of the Buried Gods is closed, and the Mad King has not discovered this place yet, but if time is delayed any further, Ye Chen will still be in danger of being exposed.

"It's time to leave."

Ye Chen stood up and looked into the depths of the God Burial Blood Road.

"Master, are you leaving?"

The blood dragon had been guarding Ye Chen. When it saw Ye Chen wanted to leave, its eyes lit up.

"Ah."

Ye Chen nodded.

"I'll escort you."

Blood Dragon could feel that after several days of training, Ye Chen's body had been completely solidified and his strength was much stronger than before.

With its help, it is not too difficult to get out of the bloody path of burying gods.

"No need, Blood Dragon, you go back first."

"I want to walk the path that Tianzu walked alone."

Ye Chen looked forward and saw the corpses of Tianzu's thousands of clones still hidden in the mud and weeds.

Over the years, these corpses have long become empty shells, without any spiritual energy left, but there is still some residual Taoism in the air.

Ye Chen wanted to retrace the path of the Heavenly Ancestor, which might be helpful for his cultivation and enlightenment.

"Owner."

Blood Dragon was startled and wanted to say something, but Ye Chen had already taken him back to the Samsara Cemetery.

Ye Chen was alone, standing in front of the Blood Road of God Burial. The earth was barren, the sky was dark red, blood clouds were condensing, and the wind was howling. It was a desolate world.

Ye Chen set off.

He set foot on the Bloody Road of God Burial and walked towards the depths of the bloody road.

The remaining Dao essence here allowed him to capture the secrets of the past and see the staggering steps of the Heavenly Ancestor as he fled for his life.

After entering the Bloody Path of the Buried Gods, Ye Chen saw tall trees. After he entered, a sharp laugh was heard from the woods. Then he saw human heads hanging from vines, floating strangely and chasing after him.

This is the Thousand-Head Ghost Tree!

He had encountered the Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree before. In this Blood Road of Burying Gods, there were a large number of ferocious plants, including a Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree, and there was more than one!
However, Ye Chen, who had seen storms before, no longer showed any fear or panic. He looked at the heads, which opened their mouths and showed their teeth biting towards him, and his expression was calm, without any panic at all.

"The other side, burial!"

Ye Chen swung out the Emperor Sword, and the fourth level of the Samsara Burial Technique, the Soul Burial Technique, erupted. The aura of samsara that was buried turned into a sword energy storm. With just one sword, he cut off the heads of many people who came to kill him, along with the vines.

A storm of sword energy blew up in the void. Ye Chen closed his eyes and resonated with Tianzu at this moment. He glimpsed the secrets of the past and saw that Tianzu had also faced the attack of the Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree.

The Heavenly Ancestor of that time also used the Samsara Burial Technique to destroy and resolve it.

However, the move Tianzu used was the fifth level of the God Burial Technique, which was more advanced than Ye Chen's.

Ye Chen cut off the head of the person who was rushing towards him, but did not damage the origin of the Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree.

Back then, the Heavenly Ancestor could destroy the spirit of heaven and earth with one sword, and bury a thousand-headed ghost tree with one sword.

Ye Chen has not yet reached this level. He closed his eyes and meditated, trying to figure out Tianzu's sword skills.

Brush!
In the ground, there were blood-stained vines crawling over like poisonous snakes.

This is the God's Resentment Vine. Ye Chen heard from Tian Man that in the Blood Road of the Buried Gods, there are a large number of vines stained with the resentment of the God's blood, and they are lingering around.

The Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree is tangible, and the human heads are very obvious, so it is easy to defend against it. However, these divine vines extend from the weeds and fallen leaves on the ground. They are very strange and hard to guard against.

"Soul burial is unrighteous, broken!"

Ye Chen was not panicked, and he still practiced the Reincarnation Technique. He pushed the Soul Burial Reincarnation Technique to its extreme, and a Reincarnation Disk appeared behind him, radiating a majestic aura of burial.

woo woo woo...

Those madly rushing divine vines were completely crushed and withered by the terrifying aura of reincarnation burial before they could get close to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen closed his eyes again and peeked at the figure of the former Heavenly Ancestor.

In the past, Tianzu also faced attacks from many ferocious vines and plants. At that time, those vines had not yet been stained with divine blood, sin and hatred, but they were filled with the thick breath of the abyss and were just as deadly.

Tianzu also used the reincarnation method to resolve it, but his method was more advanced than Ye Chen's.

Ye Chen’s Reincarnation Burial Technique had only been practiced to the fourth level.

Even though Tianzu was seriously injured, the reincarnation method he released was at the fifth level.

Ye Chen moved forward step by step, constantly fighting with the evil plants. He somehow resonated with the Heavenly Ancestor. He was like the Heavenly Ancestor who had escaped for his life in the past, and was also moving forward on the road to burying the blood of the gods.

Ye Chen imitated how Tianzu swung his sword, dodged and maneuvered, and cast spells. At first, his imitations were clumsy and he didn't get it right, but gradually, his every move, every movement, and every swing of his sword acquired the charm of Tianzu.

With the fifth level of the Reincarnation Burial Technique, there is the charm of the method of burying gods.

After three days of ascetic practice on the road to burying the blood of the gods, Ye Chen felt that he had reached the threshold of the fifth level of the Samsara Law, and his moves became more and more magical.

He wanted to find a quiet place to comprehend it.

But in the Bloody Road of the Buried God, there are evil plants and strange things everywhere, and there is no place to rest in peace.

"I've been walking for three days, why can't I get out?"

Ye Chen's face darkened. This bloody road to burying gods was longer than he had imagined.

In addition to the corpse of Tianzu's incarnation, he also saw many other corpses, most of which were servants of the gods. The nutrients in their bones had long been sucked away by the evil plants, leaving only empty shells.

There are still some real corpses of the Pillar Gods buried deep underground, but Ye Chen did not dare to dig them up, mainly because he was afraid of touching the secrets of heaven and alarming the Mad King.

However, even if the Mad King had not come, the endless emergence of evil plants on the way to the Divine Burial Blood would have brought huge trouble to Ye Chen.

The evil plants seemed endless, including the Thousand-Headed Ghost Tree, the God-Resentful Vine, the Blood-Stained Thorns, the Man-Eating Plant, etc. In the endless battle, Ye Chen felt a little tired.

After three days of high-intensity and non-stop fighting, Ye Chen's arms were numb and his breathing began to become a little rapid.

Mainly those evil plants, which are tainted with the breath of the abyss and the blood of gods, hatred and sin. After Ye Chen kills them, the resentment released from the evil plants will cause him some backlash.

The resentment of the evil plants accumulated bit by bit, and he was already under a lot of pressure now.

“No wonder Tian Man said that this bloody road to burying the gods is a dead end.”

“This road is really difficult to walk on!”

Ye Chen was silent, thinking about countermeasures.

If he called out the Blood Dragon, Quetzalcoatl, and Death Eagle, he could indeed get out, but he wanted to complete the journey by himself.

"As long as I can practice my reincarnation method to the fifth level, I will definitely be able to get out!"

"But, it's really difficult to break through the fifth level."

Ye Chen has already captured the essence of the fifth level. He wants to find a quiet place to comprehend and ponder it, but the bloody road to the burial of gods is full of thorns and there is no place to rest.

While he was thinking, another bunch of blood-stained thorns attacked him.

Ye Chen swung the Emperor Sword to cut through the thorns, but more ferocious plants attacked from all directions. If he continued fighting, he would be exhausted to death.

"My dear brother, if you really want to achieve enlightenment and breakthrough, why don't you refine the Heavenly Emperor's Fate Star?"

In the reincarnation hell, Queen Liuguang couldn't bear it anymore and spoke up to give instructions.

"Emperor's Star?"

"I would like to refine it, but the energy of that thing is too terrifying. I can't touch it at all."

Ye Chen's face twitched. The energy of the Heavenly Emperor's Fate Star was so powerful that he was currently unable to refine it and could only cover it up with gray fog.

"Stupid! You can't refine the entire Emperor's Fate Star, but you can steal some of its spiritual energy, which is enough for you to use."

The Queen of Flowing Light said.

Ye Chen shook his head and said, “I have thought about this, but with the ferocity of the Emperor’s Fate Star, I’m afraid I can’t bear even a trace of spiritual energy.”

Queen Liuguang said: "How can you know if you don't try? Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. If you don't take some risks, do you still want to break through?"

Ye Chen was silent for a moment, thinking that at this critical moment, if he didn't take a risk and wanted to escape by his own strength, it would be impossible.

"Forget it, let's just give it a try!"

Ye Chen made up his mind and stuck the Emperor Sword upside down into the ground. A wave of sword energy was released, temporarily suppressing the ferocious plants that were rampant around him.

Then, he closed his eyes and his spirit descended to the samsara cemetery.

Above the Samsara Cemetery, the starry sky is vast. In the endless starry sky, a large gray and foggy sun hangs, looking quiet and peaceful.

This is exactly the Star of the Emperor of Heaven. Under the cover of the gray fog, the entire Star of the Emperor of Heaven looks very peaceful, without any sign of tyranny or ferocity at all.

But Ye Chen knew that this was just an appearance. Under the calm gray fog was a violent, crazy, doomsday, blood-stained sun.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally released his spiritual consciousness, passed through the gray fog, touched the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star, and tried to absorb a trace of the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star's energy.

Just by absorbing a little bit, Ye Chen felt as if he had swallowed a mouthful of hot molten steel, which was filled with filthy sinful blood.

This feeling was definitely not pleasant. The energy of the Emperor's Life Star was too explosive. Ye Chen only absorbed a little bit and felt like molten steel entering his stomach. His internal organs and meridians were instantly burned red. The intense heat was about to tear him apart.

There was also the sinful blood of the gods and the filth of the abyss, which were like thousands of rotten corpses. He swallowed them all in one gulp. The filthy and dark breath almost made him faint.

Before, he fell into the Heavenly Emperor's Fate Star and was tempered by it. At that time, he was protected by the Hongmeng Green Lotus Platform, but now, his soul is no longer parasitic on the Green Lotus. He has to bear all the impacts of the violent energy and the filth of darkness by himself.

Ye Chen wanted to shout, but his throat felt like it was burned and he couldn't make any sound. Fortunately, he had refined the Starry Sky Taoist Book, and in the critical moment, wisps of cool and warm starry sky spiritual energy filled his whole body, greatly neutralizing the damage caused by the violent energy of the Emperor's Fate Star.

In this way, Ye Chen slowly refined the spiritual energy of the Emperor's Fate Star. It took him several days to completely digest and absorb this trace of spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy of the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star carries a powerful energy of reincarnation. Ye Chen only feels the energy of reincarnation added to his body. The bottleneck of his reincarnation burial skills that had been unable to break through before has finally been broken through under the impact of the energy of the Heavenly Emperor's Destiny Star!

boom!
Just like the stars hanging low over the vast plain and the moon rising over the flowing river, Ye Chen's spiritual vision suddenly broadened, and his reincarnation method finally broke through and was promoted to the fifth level of the God Burial Realm.

After this breakthrough, Ye Chen felt that the world was bright and everything was in his heart. He opened his eyes and looked at the world. He felt that with his penetrating eyes, he could actually see the essence of all things in the world and the charm of all things.
