Chapter 12533 ​​Abnormal Body
Xi Yue glanced at the sky outside, shook her head and said, "It's getting dark. Many sea monsters and ferocious beasts come out at night. Let's rest for the night and set off tomorrow."

Ye Chen said, "Alright."

That night, he and Xiyue spent the night in the dilapidated temple.

Previously, he and Su Wujiu had fought so hard that they almost destroyed the dilapidated temple. The two of them then fell asleep leaning on each other under a section of broken walls.

When the two woke up the next morning, their energy and spirits had been fully restored. Ye Chen had even broken through his cultivation level and advanced to the initial stage of the fifth level of the Abyss Realm.

Ye Chen is now unleashing his accumulated power. The essence and spiritual energy he has accumulated in the past, which has been deposited in his meridians and accompanied him in battle, will be released to nourish his body and allow him to break through his cultivation level.

Yesterday's battle with Su Wujiu released the latent essence and spiritual energy deep within Ye Chen's meridians, leading to his breakthrough today.

"Big brother, it seems your cultivation has broken through. Congratulations!"

When Xi Yue saw that Ye Chen's aura was stronger than yesterday, and that he seemed more reliable and composed, she smiled and congratulated him.

Ye Chen looked at Xi Yue and was surprised to see that her cultivation had also broken through to the mid-stage of the Burning Lamp Realm. He said, "You've broken through too, Xi Yue."

Xi Yue nodded and said, "Yes, my cultivation breakthrough is very fast because Sister Ni Chang integrated the corpse of an ancient beast into my body. I don't actually need to cultivate. As long as I stimulate the spiritual energy of that ancient beast's flesh and blood, my cultivation can break through."

Ye Chen was surprised and asked, "Oh, really? So there's an ancient beast fused inside your body?"

Xi Yue said, "Yes, but the spiritual energy in the flesh and blood of that Xuanjia Rhinoceros Ancient Beast is not easy to activate. Otherwise, I wouldn't only have the cultivation level of the Burning Lamp Realm."

"I still need a lot of medicinal herbs to aid my cultivation. Let's set off for the Yin-Yang Star Sea. Even if we can't seize the Star Sea Fate Plate, it would be good if we could dig up some rare treasures. That way, we can go to the Gold Auction House and exchange them for lots and lots of medicinal herbs!"

Her eyes were full of longing when she talked about gold auctions.

In the Golden Auction House, there are countless rare herbs and elixirs that can be purchased as long as you have money.

Upon hearing about the gold auction house, Ye Chen felt a chill run down his spine but remained silent.

"Big brother, let's go."

Xi Yue was in high spirits and immediately took Ye Chen's hand and set off.

Ye Chen composed himself and set off with Xi Yue for the Yin-Yang Star Sea.

The Yin-Yang Star Sea was less than twenty miles ahead. The two held hands and flew for a while before arriving.

Ahead, a misty haze filled the air, and a fishy wind swept across the face. A stretch of sea stretched to the horizon, and on the azure water, yin and yang energies floated. As the waves surged, yin and yang swirled, occasionally forming Bagua (Eight Trigrams) patterns, creating a truly spectacular sight.

On the vast ocean, many islands float, where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is abundant.

"This place..."

Ye Chen stood by the sea, his face darkening, as he felt a faint suppression of his divine authority.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Xi Yue blinked and asked.

Ye Chen said, "There should be some Yin-Yang Sacrifice Stone veins in this Yin-Yang Star Sea, which suppressed my divine power."

"Well, I've already adapted to a small part of it, and it's not a big problem. As long as it's not too much, I should be able to manage."

Ye Chen's divine authority was being suppressed, but he could sense that beneath this vast ocean lay a vein of Yin-Yang Sacrifice God Stones.

However, divine authority is supreme and not so easy to suppress. The Yin-Yang Profane Stone, relying on special Yin-Yang laws, can suppress it temporarily, but cannot suppress it forever.

Ye Chen had been suppressed several times, and his body had developed resistance. He gradually adapted to the suppression of the Yin-Yang Divine Stone. After a while, this thing would no longer be able to suppress him.

Xi Yue said, "That's good, big brother, let's go then."

With that, she flipped her hand and summoned a black skull ship, then led Ye Chen aboard.

"This is……"

Ye Chen saw that the ship was eerily ghostly, with many wronged spirits surrounding it.

Xi Yue said, "This is my mother's skull ship. I secretly brought it out. Hehe, we can cross the sea in this ship."

Ye Chen said "Oh," and then he heard the Crimson King's voice again: "Ah, it is indeed my junior sister Ghost Blade Princess's flying boat."

The Crimson King, who had been hidden within the Crimson Spear and rarely revealed himself, finally spoke upon seeing his junior sister, Ghost Blade Princess's, flying ship.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen felt even more disappointed.

It's Oni-hime.

Xi Yue's mother was Gui Dao Ji, not Feng Qing Xue.

"Hmm... the Starry Sea Fate Disk should be over here."

Xi Yue took out the treasure-hunting device, poured spiritual energy into it, and the pointer on the device pointed to a certain direction.

She then urged the Skull Tower Ship to proceed according to the directions of the treasure-hunting device.

As the ship entered the Yin-Yang Star Sea, the faint suppressive force became even clearer. Ye Chen silently resisted it, looking around. He saw islands dotting the ocean, but the islands near the shore had all been looted and were in a state of chaos.

The natural treasures that grew on the island were naturally cleared out.

"It seems we're a bit late."

Upon seeing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly and looked into the depths of the ocean, where he saw many ships sailing by, all of them people searching for treasure.

Xi Yue said, "It's not too late. There's nothing good in the coastal areas. Sister Ni Chang said that the truly valuable natural treasures are in the depths of the ocean."

She steered the skull ship into the depths of the ocean. The sea was vast and boundless. Once she entered the deep sea, she could no longer see any other ships around her.

The islands here were indeed untouched by human activity. Xi Yue landed on a secluded island and saw many medicinal herbs growing there. She was immediately delighted and called out to Ye Chen:

"Big brother, there are many wild medicinal herbs here!"

As he spoke, he bent down to pick herbs.

Suddenly, a brightly colored venomous snake darted out from the nearby bushes and bit her calf with lightning speed.

"careful!"

Ye Chen called out and immediately cast a time-stop spell from a distance, freezing the venomous snake in place, rendering it unable to move.

Ye Chen drew his sword again and rushed forward, cleaving the venomous snake in two with a single strike.

When Xi Yue saw the snake's corpse, her face turned pale, and she was quite frightened. Then she smiled at Ye Chen and said, "Thank you, big brother, for saving me again."

Ye Chen, carrying his sword, said, "Be careful. There might be some poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts roaming in the wilderness. I'll protect you; you can gather herbs."

Xi Yue happily nodded and immediately focused on gathering herbs, with Ye Chen guarding her side.

Fortunately, nothing else went wrong. After collecting the herbs, Xi Yue found some fine mineral crystals on the deserted island, reaping a great harvest. Satisfied, she returned to the Skull Tower ship.

"Big brother, this Yin-Yang Star Sea is truly full of treasures!"

"I'll share half with you!"

Xi Yue excitedly set aside half of the herbs and minerals she had just harvested to give to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "You can take them. These things are useless to me."

With his current cultivation level, ordinary rare and precious materials are no longer enough for him.

"Oh."

"You really don't want it? Then how can I repay you?"

Xi Yue blinked and looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled, patted her head, and said, "No need to repay me, just keep it."

He looked at the herbs and minerals piled on the deck, a question forming in his mind. He said...
"This Yin-Yang Star Sea is filled with so many rare treasures. Does the Yin-Yang Divine Dao Sect also send people to guard it? Are they just going to let outsiders plunder it all?"

When he first arrived in Yin Yang Tian Zhou, there were many things he didn't understand. Xi Yue had lived here for ten years, so perhaps she knew some secrets.

Xi Yue said, "Big brother, don't you know? Recently, the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect has been preparing for the Ten Thousand Sects Conference, and their Elder Council also has to mediate the dispute between the Dao Seeking Sect and the Dao Slaughtering Sect, so they can't spare many people."

As she spoke, Xi Yue told Ye Chen some more about the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect.

This Yin-Yang Divine Dao Sect is divided into two factions: the Dao Seeking Sect and the Dao Slaughtering Sect. However, the highest decision-making body is not the two factions, but the Elder Council.

Although the elders in the Elder Council also came from both sects, they had a long-term vision and deeply felt that if the two sects continued to fight, it would inevitably lead to the collapse of the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect.

Therefore, the council usually tries its best to mediate the two disputes and avoid internal strife.

The Supreme Elder of the Elder Council is also the Sect Master of the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect.

"The Temple of the End has eight branch temples, and the Yin-Yang Divine Path Sect also has eight branch sects. The Yin-Yang Palace in the Yin-Yang Star Sea is one of them, representing the 'Way of Qian'."

Xi Yue then told Ye Chen about local customs and traditions.

"The Eight Major Branches, the Way of Qian?"

Ye Chen murmured.

Xi Yue said, "Yes, Yin and Yang are divided into the Eight Trigrams. Among the Eight Trigrams, Qian represents Heaven. This Xinghai Yin Yang Palace is proficient in the way of Qian Heaven. It is very powerful in various ways of deducing heavenly secrets, divining cause and effect, and observing the orbits of stars."

"However, recently, their palace master died, and the supreme treasure, the Star Sea Fate Orbit Disc, was also lost."

"The Star Sea Yin Yang Palace is in chaos right now. I heard it has been attacked many times, and even their guardian beast has defected."

"In short, don't be fooled by the calm surface of the sea; things are probably in complete chaos underneath."

"Originally, the Yin-Yang Star Sea was patrolled and managed by the Yin-Yang Star Sea Palace. Outsiders were absolutely forbidden from mining any rare and precious materials."

"But they're too busy taking care of themselves right now, which is actually a good thing for us."

"Hehe, the things here are natural products, unclaimed property. How can they monopolize them?"

After listening to what Xi Yue said, Ye Chen fell into deep thought.

It turns out that the Star Sea Fate Orbit Plate was not truly ownerless; it was originally a treasure of the Star Sea Yin Yang Palace.

However, the master of the Xinghai Yin-Yang Palace died, and the treasure was lost to the world.

With the Yin-Yang Palace of the Star Sea losing its leader, it fell into chaos, and the entire Yin-Yang Star Sea was left unattended.

The native inhabitants of Yin Yang Tianzhou, wary of the prestige of the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect, were still hesitant to venture into the Yin Yang Star Sea to offend them. However, the martial artists from the other side of the starry sky had no such concerns and flocked into the Yin Yang Star Sea to plunder and collect treasures.

As for the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect, as the main sect, they haven't taken any action yet because they also have a lot of internal matters to deal with.

Ye Chen sorted out his thoughts. Although the Star Sea Yin Yang Palace was in chaos and the Yin Yang Divine Dao Sect had not yet made its move, he still had to be on guard.

It seems this Starry Sea Destiny Orbiter won't be so easy to get your hands on!

Propelling the skull ship forward, Xi Yue plundered several more islands, reaping a bountiful harvest that filled her with immense joy.

During their journey, they encountered some ferocious beasts and sea monsters, all of which were dealt with by Ye Chen.

After a busy day, it was getting dark. The Yin-Yang Star Sea was teeming with enormous sea monsters, making it extremely dangerous. Xi Yue docked the ship on a deserted island and spent the night there with Ye Chen.

As night fell, terrifying roars echoed from the distant sea, sending chills down one's spine.

Xi Yue lit a bonfire, took out the treasure-hunting device, and used the firelight to look around.

"Hmm... Big brother, we should be able to reach the location of the Star Sea Destiny Plate in another day or two. I hope it hasn't been stolen yet."

Looking at the treasure-hunting instrument, Xi Yue calculated how far she and Ye Chen were from the Star Sea Destiny Orbit Disc.

"Okay, let's get the stuff as soon as possible and then leave."

Ye Chen said.

Behind the Star Sea Destiny Orbit Chart are the Star Sea Yin Yang Palace and the Yin Yang Divine Path Sect. If the time is delayed for too long, there will definitely be endless troubles.

Moreover, the deeper Ye Chen went into the ocean, the stronger his sense of danger became.

There was something unsettling about this Yin-Yang Star Sea.

An aura, the aura of the God of the Universe.

The God of the Universe was also in the Yin-Yang Star Sea, but Ye Chen could only vaguely sense that the God of the Universe was indeed there.

There was another aura, which Ye Chen wasn't sure about, but it seemed to be the aura of Ancestor Tingyou!

The Listening Ancestor of the Slaughtering Dao Sect was severely injured by him before. Could it be that he is in seclusion here to recuperate?

Ye Chen felt that he couldn't stay here any longer, otherwise something unexpected would happen.

After spending a night on the deserted island with Xi Yue, the two continued their journey the next day, venturing deeper into the ocean. Ye Chen increasingly sensed the impending danger.

"There are actually three auras of crisis!"

Ye Chen's expression darkened slightly. With his Primordial Spirit Eye activated, even though the heavenly secrets of Yin Yang Heaven Continent were in chaos, Ye Chen could still sense any danger approaching him.

He discovered that he was surrounded by three auras of danger!
The first crisis naturally originated from Yu Shen, who was located on this vast ocean, no more than a thousand miles away from Ye Chen.

The second crisis came from Patriarch Tingyou!

Master Tingyou must also be in the sea area within a thousand miles, but it is unknown which island he is in seclusion to heal his injuries.

Ye Chen was unaware of the third crisis; he only sensed an impending danger but couldn't fully grasp it.

Xi Yue had no sense of danger whatsoever. She excitedly plundered the islands along the way and obtained many spiritual herbs and secret mines. At this time, she and Ye Chen were already in the deep sea, where sea monsters and ferocious beasts appeared from time to time.

However, Ye Chen's martial arts skills were formidable, and the Heavenly Emperor's Divine Sword was incredibly sharp, so he didn't expend much effort to kill the sea monster.

Xi Yue was unharmed, and seeing how powerful Ye Chen was, she admired and liked him even more.

"Big brother, we should be less than a hundred miles away from the Star Sea Destiny Orbit Disk."

"Let's rest for one night, and we'll be able to find the treasure successfully tomorrow!"

That night, Xi Yue and Ye Chen rested on a deserted island. She took out her treasure-hunting device and calculated that the Star Sea Fate Orbit Disc was less than a hundred miles away from her and Ye Chen.

"Okay, that's good. Take a rest."

Ye Chen thought that once he got the Star Sea Fate Compass tomorrow, he would leave immediately. This place was a dangerous place, and he had to leave before Yu Shen and Ancestor Tingyou discovered him.

The situation is going smoothly so far. Ye Chen has been able to deal with the sea monsters and ferocious beasts he has encountered along the way, and there are no other martial artists around.

The Yin-Yang Star Sea is too vast, like an ocean. To find even a small celestial orbit disc within it is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Furthermore, the Yin-Yang Star Sea is shrouded in wisps of Yin-Yang mystical energy, obscuring the secrets of heaven, making it difficult to deduce cause and effect.

If it weren't for the treasure-hunting device, Ye Chen and Xi Yue wouldn't have been able to discover the whereabouts of the Star Sea Destiny Plate so easily.

Xi Yue put away the treasure-hunting device, took off her shoes, and then crawled into Ye Chen's chest, hooking her arms around his neck, intending to sleep on him.

At this time, she was quite attached to Ye Chen and regarded him as a reliable elder like a father or brother. Ye Chen also treated her as a daughter and naturally tolerated her in every way.

Just as Xi Yue was about to close her eyes and go to sleep, she heard an extremely sharp sonic boom coming from outside the deserted island. A dozen streaks of light pierced the sky and flew towards the distant sea at an extremely fast speed.

Those dozen or so streaks of light were actually the aura created by a dozen or so people flying on their swords.

The flying sword pierced the air, emitting a sharp sonic boom.

"Oh dear, what is this..."

"It's Xiao He, the vice sect leader of the Dao Seeking Sect! What brings him here?"

"Could it be that the Dao Seeking Sect is coming to the Yin-Yang Star Sea to establish their authority?"

When Xi Yue saw the dozen or so people flying on swords, they were all wearing Daoist robes from the Daoist Daoist Sect. The leader was an old man with red hair, whose aura was even more astonishing. Rainbow light pierced through the night sky, and sword energy crisscrossed, with the aura of a raging fire. The sword energy waves even carved a trench in the seawater below.

The churning seawater was instantly evaporated by the sword energy and fiery waves, hissing and billowing white smoke rising into the sky.

She clearly recognized the red-haired old man; he was none other than Xiao He, the vice sect leader of the Dao Seeking Sect!

With the Yin-Yang Star Sea in chaos, could it be that the Yin-Yang Divine Dao Sect, as the main sect, has finally made its move?
Even more remarkably, the Vice Sect Master of the Dao Seeking Sect personally descended upon the scene!
"The vice sect master of the Dao Seeking Sect?"

Ye Chen looked at the red-haired old man at the head and also sensed the aura of a powerful figure.

That red-haired old man's strength is probably terrifying!
However, the red-haired old man, Xiao Hegu, did not seem to be coming for Ye Chen. He flew directly over the seawater.

When Xiao He noticed the glow of a campfire on the deserted island nearby, he turned his gaze over. Upon seeing Ye Chen's figure, his eyelids twitched, but he did not stop and continued to fly forward on his sword, as if he had something more urgent to attend to.
