Chapter 12526 Very Dangerous
"Don't be too sad. If you are destined to meet her, you will meet again in the future."

Emperor Fengrao comforted him.

Ye Chen remained silent, then hummed in agreement.

Emperor Fengrao said, "Alright, go back to the Pure Land and rest. You must be tired too."

Ye Chen nodded, and with the help of the Abundant Emperor, he returned to the Pure Land.

The medicinal fields in the Pure Land remained intact, unaffected by the previous battles between Ye Chen and Immortal Venerable Jingliu.

There lay Immortal Venerable Jingliu in the medicinal field, surrounded by vast fields of spiritual herbs. The spiritual energy of numerous immortal herbs and divine medicines was being poured into her body.

"This is……"

Ye Chen was somewhat surprised to see this.

Emperor Fengrao said, "Immortal Venerable Jingliu was almost killed by you and the God of Love and was seriously injured. She is the daughter of the earth. I have received the grace of the Earth Ancestor and cannot watch her die."

"Lord of Reincarnation, please give me some face and let Immortal Venerable Jingliu go this time."

“I will not interfere in your life-and-death battles from now on, but this time, I cannot watch her die.”

The Abundant Emperor peacefully cultivated medicinal herbs in the Pure Land for countless years, receiving immense blessings from the Earth Ancestor.

Moreover, Immortal Venerable Jingliu never came to reclaim this pure land, allowing him to use it as he pleased, which was an immense favor.

Now that Immortal Venerable Jingliu is in trouble, Emperor Fengrao naturally cannot ignore it.

Ye Chen looked at the Mirror Flow Immortal Venerable lying in the herb field and thought that if he went over to finish him off, this Heavenly Gate Supreme Venerable would immediately die a violent death.

However, out of respect for the Abundant Emperor, Ye Chen couldn't push things too far.

"Alright, Your Majesty, I will not kill her."

Ye Chen sighed, knowing that letting Immortal Venerable Jingliu go today would surely lead to endless troubles.

However, he could not make a move in front of the Abundant Emperor.

"Thank you very much."

The Abundant Emperor was very grateful and cupped his hands in thanks to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen remained silent, glanced at Immortal Venerable Jingliu one last time, and then went back to his thatched hut to rest.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ye Chen first sensed his body.

The biggest threat is still the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Path. It was only thanks to the support of the Starry Sky Pillar and the Coiled Dragon Pillar that it was barely not crushed.

"Two pillars are not enough; we need at least five."

Ye Chen muttered to himself, the Starry Sky Pillar and the Coiling Dragon Pillar supported his heart and lungs, but his liver, spleen, and kidneys were not yet supported.

For the body to be stable, the five major internal organs—heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—must all be supported.

There seemed to be a worm crawling inside his brain, the soul of the Eternal Emperor wreaking havoc, but it wasn't a big problem. Ye Chen didn't feel much harm and could let it run wild without any issues.

The Yin-Yang cycle is the greatest threat.

"I must forge three more pillars to ensure stability."

Ye Chen pondered this in his mind, focusing his attention on the Eternal Wall.

If the Eternal Wall could be forged into a pillar of heaven, it could also support the body.

Unfortunately, the Eternal Wall is too heavy. Ye Chen can hardly use it even normally, so how could he possibly forge it into a pillar of heaven?

He had no suitable materials on hand, and the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword was absolutely unusable, as it was Ye Chen's natal weapon.

"Never mind, I'll look for opportunities later."

"At least for now, two pillars are enough."

Ye Chen composed himself and took out the Heavenly Saint Bottle, looking at the Frenzy Fragments inside.

This frenzied fragment has a built-in devouring effect. It previously devoured the negative calamities of the Great Dao of Time, and today it has devoured his emotional tribulations.

After absorbing a large amount of dark and negative things, the aura of the Frenzied Devouring Fragment became noticeably darker and more concentrated.

Originally, the holy water and light in the Heavenly Saint Bottle and the darkness in the Frenzy Fragment were in perfect balance.

But now, the aura inside the bottle is mostly darkness, with light weakening.

"My previous dream of being bathed in love was also influenced by the fragments of the Frenzied Devouring, right?"

"Is it the abyssal aura of the Frenzied Devouring Fragments that created this abyssal illusion?"

Ye Chen recalled the words Abyss had said: "It's not a dream."

"The dream of eternal slumber in the abyss is indeed incredibly real and incredibly captivating."

"If it weren't for the Abundant Emperor waking me up, I wouldn't have wanted to wake up at all."

Ye Chen murmured to himself, recalling the joy in his dream, which still felt incredibly real and unforgettable.

He wanted to be with Feng Qingxue, forever immersed in unparalleled and profound joy and longing, never wanting to wake up.

His body trembled inexplicably. He picked up the Heavenly Saint Bottle, looked at the Frenzied Devouring Fragments inside, and his palm trembled slightly.

He felt like he was getting a little addicted, with a lightheaded feeling like he was smoking poppies.

He wants to dream again!

"No, that's just a dream. I can't waste my time on dreams."

Ye Chen shook his head and put the Heavenly Saint Bottle down.

But the next instant, he trembled as if he had been electrocuted.

Is it really a dream?
The Eternal Emperor was churning and raging, and he was a pillar god, so why didn't Ye Chen feel much discomfort in his mind as he raged and roared?
Ye Chen discovered that there seemed to be a very powerful force in his brain.

That is a spiritual force.

It's the power of pure love!

He had love in his heart, so his Dao heart was extremely firm. Even someone as powerful as the Longevity Emperor could not shake his spirit.

This is the shelter of pure love!
Ye Chen suddenly thought of many things again. Why was it that the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao tormented his body so severely that his internal organs were trapped in an endless cycle of birth and death, but his mind and spirit were not crushed?

Given his mental strength, he shouldn't be able to withstand the crushing force of the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Path.

is love!

I still love you!
It was the protection of pure love that gave his Dao heart a special power that withstood the crushing force of the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao.

Why is Ye Chen in so much pain when Feng Qingxue leaves?
Why did he experience such intense pain, feeling as if his heart was being torn apart, his whole being was about to shatter, and he was even unable to breathe and paralyzed on the ground?

I still love you!
It's all because of love!
He and Feng Qingxue shared a love that lasted for ten thousand years, a love so profound and joyful that it was truly unforgettable.

Therefore, when Feng Qingxue decided to leave, Ye Chen was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe and even became paralyzed on the spot.

If he and Feng Qingxue had only briefly fallen in love without truly uniting or experiencing a profound, unforgettable love that would last for millennia, his emotional entanglements wouldn't have become so severe.

Even with the addition of Tianzu's feelings, there wouldn't be such severe heartache.

It was his own emotional ties; he couldn't bear to part with the feelings he had shared for millennia, nor could he let go of the deep longing he had felt for her. He wanted to be with Feng Qingxue forever.

But now Feng Qingxue is gone, completely gone.

Ye Chen touched his heart and felt a dull ache again.

Fortunately, those ten thousand years of unforgettable experiences also became a powerful force, both Ye Chen's weakness and his armor.

He truly had Feng Qingxue, so it's not too much of a regret.

"It's not a dream."

"Dreams influence reality."

"In my dream, I was with Feng Qingxue. Those ten thousand years of experience seemed not to be a dream, but something that actually happened."

"She gave me the power of pure love, which allowed me to withstand the crushing force of the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Path and the ravages of the Eternal Emperor."

"This is armor, but also a weakness."

"So, when she really leaves me, I will be heartbroken and unable to breathe, because we have loved each other for ten thousand years."

"That's not right. The dream happened later, so how could it affect the events before?"

Ye Chen felt a sudden shiver run through his body and a chill run down his spine.

That's putting the cause in the opposite order!
What happened in the future distorted the past!
Cause and effect are completely reversed!

His body trembled, and then he felt a wave of numbness wash over him.

What is a dream, and what is reality?

He couldn't tell the difference, he really couldn't tell the difference anymore.

He was completely confused.

So, did he and Feng Qingxue actually get together?
Have we ever truly loved for ten thousand years?
He didn't sleep all night. When he looked out the window at dawn and saw that Immortal Mirror Flow in the herb field had woken up and stood up, he came back to his senses.

Previously, Immortal Venerable Jingliu had been severely injured and nearly killed by the combined sword strikes of him and Feng Qingxue.

However, after being treated by the Abundant Emperor and infused with a large amount of immortal herbs, divine medicines, and spiritual energy, her injuries have recovered considerably.

The price was that most of the Emperor's medicinal fields were drained of their spiritual energy, causing the herbs to wither completely.

Ye Chen went out and saw Immortal Venerable Jingliu saying goodbye to Emperor Fengrao.

"Your Majesty, thank you for saving me. I must go now."

The Abundant Emperor stroked his beard and chuckled, saying:
"No need to thank me, you should thank the Lord of Reincarnation." He pointed at Ye Chen.

Immortal Venerable Jingliu's gaze fell on Ye Chen's side, his expression somewhat complicated, but he finally said:
"Thank you, Lord of Reincarnation, you are indeed a gentleman."

Ye Chen could have easily taken advantage of her vulnerability and killed her last night.

But Ye Chen didn't.

Ye Chen said, "I was only giving Emperor Fengrao face. Next time we meet, we'll be enemies."

Immortal Venerable Jingliu paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, I'm withdrawing."

Ye Chen was taken aback and asked, "What?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu said, "I am withdrawing. For the next hundred years, my Heavenly Purity Ancient Palace will no longer fight with your Samsara faction."

"The Four Heavenly Gates originally intended to join forces against you, but you are remarkable; you have already turned the Rainbow Rain Temple against you."

"Only three of the Four Heavenly Gates remain, and now that I have withdrawn, all you will have to deal with in the future are the Myriad Stars Heavenly Palace and the Divine Weapon Manor."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was somewhat incredulous and asked, "You want to withdraw from this conflict?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu said, "Yes, you didn't kill me last night, and I don't want to fight you anymore."

"But, in my position, there are many things I have no choice but to do."

"Therefore, I can only guarantee that I will not be your enemy for the next hundred years."

"But I can't guarantee what will happen a hundred years from now."

Ye Chen's spirits lifted. If Immortal Venerable Jingliu was going to retire for a hundred years, then his pressure would be greatly reduced.

He added, "The Myriad Stars Heavenly Palace, the Divine Weapon Manor, and even the Golden Feather Emperor behind them, will not allow you to withdraw so easily."

Immortal Venerable Jingliu said, "Yes, when you're in the martial world, you're not in control of your own destiny. It's not easy for me to retire from this life."

“Especially the Golden Feather Emperor. My Heavenly Pure Ancient Palace received many benefits from him. For example, the four Yin-Yang Death Servants that I summoned before were given to me by the Golden Feather Emperor.”

"Emperor Jin Yu's gold auction house has already opened in Yin Yang Heavenly Continent, and has had many transactions with various forces in Yin Yang Heavenly Continent."

"Only he, with his vast wealth, could collect enough Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stones to create a special puppet to suppress your divine authority."

"Those four puppets were given to me by Emperor Jinyu, specifically to deal with you."

Hearing this, Ye Chen felt a chill run down his spine, finally realizing the truth.

It turns out that Emperor Jinyu has even opened a gold auction house in this new world of Yin Yang Heaven Continent. His methods are indeed impressive.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

"Thank you and the God of Love for combining your swords to kill me and sever the tribulation fire of the Burning Soul Body. For the next hundred years, I can live a peaceful and easy life."

Immortal Venerable Jingliu looked at Ye Chen with a smile in his eyes, which conveyed a sense of gratitude.

She turned misfortune into blessing. Although she was injured by Ye Chen and Feng Qingxue, the sword energy that caused the Cycle of Reincarnation to annihilate her Burning Body Calamity Flame was extinguished, allowing her to enjoy peace for the next hundred years.

Ye Chen was stunned. He hadn't expected that things would turn out this way and actually benefit Immortal Venerable Jingliu.

"Actually, I'm a little disappointed that the person you were basking in love with yesterday wasn't me."

Immortal Venerable Jingliu suddenly spoke again in a low voice.

Ye Chen asked in astonishment, "What?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu laughed and said, "We originally made a bet that if I defeated you within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you would have to give me the Nine Heavens Immortal Herb and sleep with me for one night."

“But you’re cheating and refusing to admit it, and I’m very angry.”

Ye Chen said, "I won in the first place, okay?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu said, "You lost."

He paused for a moment, then said, "But never mind, it's all in the past. I just have a little regret."

“I could have spent a wonderful night with you, and then we could have harmonized our yin and yang, and completely resolved the problem of the Great Calamity of Burning Heaven.”

"Now that I have the body of the Burning Soul, the flames of calamity have been temporarily quelled, but there is still a danger that they will return in a hundred years."

"As for the Goddess of Love, you and I have been entangled in a passionate love affair for ten thousand years. Her cataclysmic tribulation must have been completely resolved by now, right? I'm so envious."

In the end, Immortal Venerable Jingliu's words carried a hint of envy.

Ye Chen was startled and asked, "What did you say?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu teased, "What, you think I didn't see you two having an affair?"

"A glance that lasts a lifetime, what a masterful time manipulation technique!"

“You extend a moment into ten thousand years, and then, for ten thousand years, you are deeply entwined with the God of Love. I am watching from heaven.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen felt a chill run down his spine.

Not a dream!
My dream has come true!
His love for Feng Qingxue lasted for ten thousand years, and it all became a reality!
Immortal Venerable Jingliu sighed softly again and said, "Alas, your body should have been mine."

"So when I saw you with the God of Love, I was furious, completely lost my mind, and went mad."

"Well, never mind, it's all in the past."

"The outcome is not bad now; at least my calamity has been quelled."

Immortal Venerable Jingliu spoke with a relieved tone, but then gently pursed his lips, a playful look appearing in his pure, mirror-like eyes, and said,

"Or, could I stay a few more days and spend the night with you?"

“The God of Love has left, and no one will bother us anymore, but I’m afraid your body can’t take it.”

Ye Chen now carries the burden of the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao, a terrifying lineage that could collapse at any moment.

Once the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao collapses, Immortal Venerable Mirror Flow will also be crushed to death.

Therefore, she now has some concerns; spending another night with Ye Chen would be too dangerous.

The best time has passed; there is no chance now.

Ye Chen waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, you should go. We're not on the same path."

He harbored no ill intentions towards Immortal Venerable Jingliu; his mind was now filled with thoughts of Feng Qingxue.

A love that has lasted for millennia is truly unforgettable.

The thought of Feng Qingxue caused him a dull ache in his heart. Fortunately, the Frenzied Devouring Fragments constantly devoured his negative emotions, so his Dao Heart remained stable.

Immortal Venerable Jingliu chuckled and said, "Alright, I'm leaving. Before I go, I'll give you one more piece of advice."

Ye Chen asked, "What?"

Immortal Venerable Jingliu looked up at the sky and said:
"I have heard of the legend of the Ten Great Dao Artifacts in Yin Yang Heaven Continent. Dao artifacts are divine artifacts that are born from the Great Dao."

"The Yin-Yang cycle you bear is too heavy; I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on."

"You can try your luck in Yin Yang Heaven Continent. If you can find the Ten Great Dao Artifacts, any one of them will be enough to support your body."

"Hehe, but I heard that you are incredibly audacious, offending the Lu Dao Sect and even harming Ancestor Ting You."

"Now, everyone in the Luodao Sect wishes they could tear you to pieces."

"It's good that you're staying in the Starry Sky World. The world's rules restrict them, so they don't dare to offend you easily."

"But if you run to Yin Yang Heaven Continent, the Slaughtering Dao Sect will probably chop you up."

Ye Chen murmured, "The Ten Great Dao Artifacts?"

He peered into the future and, in a mysterious way, discovered that these ten Dao artifacts were indeed the key items.

His Yin-Yang Reincarnation Dao requires at least five celestial pillars for support; he has built two, and still needs three more.

If one could find a Dao artifact and use it as a pillar of heaven, it would greatly alleviate the pressure.

However, he has offended the Lu Dao Sect, and it would be extremely dangerous for him to go to Yin Yang Tian Zhou rashly.
