Chapter 531: Everyone is Astonished

Chapter 535: The World in Shock

"This... the Grand Yin True Art and the Grand Yang True Art, these are the most ancient scriptures of the human race!" the big black dog exclaimed.

In ancient times, the human race first appeared near the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land in the Southern Domain. According to records from other races, they were suspected to have come from beyond the heavens.

The ancient human race possessed two great ancient scriptures. They could seize the essence of creation from heaven and earth, cultivating the most fundamental Grand Yin and Grand Yang sacred powers, which were unfathomably profound and incredibly powerful.

Ye Fan had long heard that ancient Great Emperors were greatly inspired by these two most primitive scriptures when they created their own supreme ancient scriptures.

"This ancient human sage is a treasure trove from head to toe, simply an immortal treasury!" the big black dog drooled.

A single drop of blood from an ancient sage could kill a top master of the present age, and the warm, pure white bone staff in his hand was certainly an astonishing divine object.

Of course, most importantly, he possessed the two most primitive human ancient scriptures, which were priceless immortal treasures, lost for tens of thousands of years.

The scarlet iron chains binding him were also divine objects, densely covered with runes, shimmering with light, complex and profound. They could suppress ancient sages, making them undoubtedly priceless treasures!

Ye Fan's heart was also racing. This person was a living archive; the Grand Yang and Grand Yin True Arts, these two most primitive ancient scriptures, filled him with great anticipation.

If he could obtain them, he might be able to deduce the evolutionary process of the human race's inheritance, as cultivation began in that era.

Taking this ancient sage away, while a tremendous opportunity, also carried immense danger. It could very well lead to a monstrous calamity.

The Primordial Royal youth shouted something loudly, his eyes showing vigilance, as he gradually sensed something was amiss.

"He's saying not to touch this ancient fiend, urging us to leave quickly," the monkey explained.

Ye Fan knew that if he tried to take the ancient sage, the youth would certainly resist, perhaps even summoning his father, the king.

"Let him sleep for a while, then we'll leave," he said. He didn't want to harm the youth, as there was no enmity between them, and the youth had led them this far.

Bang.

The monkey lightly struck with his palm, and the youth fell unconscious, placed on a flat bluestone in the ancient cave. He would wake up in half an hour.

Whoosh.

Ye Fan collected the great divine source block, which sealed the ancient sage, into the Cauldron of All Being's Mother Qi. The surging primordial essence within it made him feel a wave of comfort throughout his body.

"Be extremely careful! This old sage is mentally unstable. If he breaks free, we'll all die!" the big black dog muttered, a rare instance where it didn't argue.

Ye Fan's heart jolted. He felt a terrifying aura permeating the cauldron, emanating from the great divine source block, as if a savage dragon were about to awaken.

"Once we're out, we need to find a place to bury him. We absolutely cannot carry him!" He quickly made this decision. Although the two most primitive ancient scriptures were comparable to immortal treasures, they were not as important as their lives.

As they retreated, they gradually heard the sounds of battle again. The fight had already reached a fever pitch, intensely fierce and tragic.

"Daoist Crow..." Ye Fan's heart stirred. He saw the old crow in the Myriad Dragon Nest; it was covered in blood, though none of it was its own.

Daoist Crow, with his profound cultivation and immense power, was from the same era as Old Daoist Red Dragon. In the current age, he could walk unchallenged, with few able to contend with him.

He didn't break out; instead, he continued searching within the Myriad Dragon Nest, clearly fearless and intent on obtaining immortal treasures.

Whoosh.

Daoist Crow vanished in a flash, rushing deeper into the Myriad Dragon Nest, disappearing from sight.

"Nangong Zheng, Daoist Crow... they're certainly not the only two. Most likely, others have also rushed in. It's a good thing we took the first step."

These peerless powerhouses were incredibly strong and dared to venture into forbidden lands. After searching, they were bound to gain significant rewards.

The immortal divine medicine was about a foot tall, rooted in a pile of divine source stones next to the ancient coffin. It was cast entirely from gold, shimmering brilliantly from root to tip.

"Can we use the Void Great Emperor's formation patterns to capture the divine medicine?" Ye Fan asked.

It had nine leaves, drifting like golden clouds, ethereal and incredibly eye-catching.

"It's very difficult," the big black dog sighed, shaking its head.

At the top of the ancient divine medicine was a palm-sized small dragon, lifelike, dazzling, and exuding a rich fragrance that was almost intoxicating and incredibly alluring.

"Last time, I was just a hair's breadth away from picking it, but this time the difficulty is too great," Ye Fan said regretfully.

The immortal divine medicine swayed, emitting countless rays of light, making the area brilliant. Its intoxicating fragrance grew even stronger, and the small dragon hanging from it actually opened its eyes, twisting its body at them repeatedly.

"Damn it, it's provoking us! This Emperor hasn't never eaten an immortal medicine before; I'll swallow you whole in a bit!" the big black dog bared its fangs.

The immortal medicine rose from the ground, its roots stretching above the pile of divine source stones. The entire plant glowed brilliantly, its divine radiance flowing like water, completely ignoring them.

"This immortal divine medicine is too enchanting..." Ye Fan also felt an itch in his heart, wishing he could capture it immediately.

Suddenly, an idea struck him. He took out the unknown immortal treasure he had obtained from the ancient Chaos Nest and shook it vigorously.

The immortal medicine, being sentient, immediately burst into brilliant light upon seeing this, retreating into the pile of divine source stones.

Ye Fan was surprised. He unleashed the immortal treasure, sending it flying forward.

Whoosh.

The immortal divine medicine, as if startled, instantly shot up from the ground, transforming into a golden divine light and flying towards the depths of the Myriad Dragon Nest.

"Grab it!" Ye Fan shouted.

The big black dog had been ready for a long time. It quickly activated the corner of the incomplete formation pattern, transversing forward to capture the True Dragon Immortal Medicine.

Buzz!

The void trembled. The immortal divine medicine emitted dazzling divine light and brilliant, colorful glows. The entire Myriad Dragon Nest filled with rich fragrance.

It actually broke through the confinement, opening a golden passage in the void that led directly to the ancient nest enveloped in chaos, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, it's too cunning and slippery! We can't pin it down at all. No wonder only ancient Great Emperors could master them," the big black dog grumbled in annoyance.

Ye Fan, however, was excited. He quickly took out a small white jade cauldron, activated the "Movement" secret art, and moved swiftly through the Myriad Dragon Nest, collecting the golden divine liquid in the void.

"Ah, it forcibly opened the spatial path and spat out its medicinal blood!" the big black dog exclaimed, rushing over.

In the void were thirty-six drops of golden divine liquid, incredibly fragrant. All the rich aroma emanated from them. Each drop was like a golden pearl, shining with immense brilliance.

"The immortal medicine's dragon-fruit spat out its essence blood! This time, it suffered a major loss of vitality. That little dragon probably lost more than half its life. Who told it to provoke us recklessly?" The Black Emperor burst out laughing.

Ye Fan collected all the golden droplets, closing the cauldron lid, and the fragrance vanished. This was the essence of the immortal medicine, its value immeasurable.

Previously, he had used a portion of the True Dragon Divine Medicine's essence to revive the Peerless Divine King.

"Let's go quickly!" Ye Fan said. Their gains were substantial enough, and staying any longer would likely lead to unexpected trouble.

The group used the Void Emperor's formation patterns to teleport, quickly arriving at the battlefield ahead. By now, blood stained the cave walls, and flesh and bone fragments were scattered everywhere.

"Seniors, come here!" Ye Fan secretly sent a message to the Western Queen Mother, then called out to the Wind Clan Holy Lord.

Roar...

Roars shook the heavens. Ancient creatures, almost human in form and radiating terrifying power, battled in the ancient cave, forcing all the various magnates to stain their robes with blood.

Some Supreme Elder-level figures fell from time to time. The place was like a Shura field, a horrific sight.

Of course, many ancient creatures also died. After all, those present were powerful figures from various factions, none of them weaklings, and all possessed extraordinary means.

The Western Queen Mother and the Wind Clan Holy Lord rushed over one after another. With a flash of light, they vanished from their spots. Although the corner of the ancient Great Emperor's formation pattern was severely incomplete, it was not restricted in this place, allowing them to instantly teleport far away from the Myriad Dragon Nest.

It didn't take long. Their eyes lit up as they emerged from absolute nothingness into an oasis.

"What a monstrous disaster!" the Wind Clan Holy Lord sighed deeply.

"I must return to Jade Lake and retrieve the Divine City Stone Token to save our fellow Daoists," the Western Queen Mother said.

"This junior wishes to help, but lacks the strength. It took a long time of preparation just to activate the formation pattern once by chance. I regret not being able to rescue those people."

Ye Fan, without a change in expression, cupped his hands. With a flash of light, he, the big black dog, and the monkey vanished.

It was obvious that this disaster would shock the world, and he would undoubtedly be thrust into the limelight, becoming the primary focus.

He definitely didn't want to go to Jade Lake again. He'd rather miss the Peach of Immortality Feast, which occurred once every five hundred years, and go into seclusion.

"To the small town two thousand li away from Jade Lake," Ye Fan said, intending to pick up little Nannan.

Going to the Myriad Dragon Nest had been too dangerous, so he hadn't allowed Li Heishui and the others to accompany him. He had arranged to meet them in that small town and retreat together.

"Little Ye, you're here! You didn't actually trick all those people, did you?!" Li Heishui stepped forward and asked in surprise.

"What could I do? They forced me to do it," Ye Fan shrugged.

"Heavens, I tell you, Ye Hei, you've really gone too far! If all those people die, there'll be no place for you in the Eastern Wilderness," Jiang Hairen exclaimed.

"Not all of them would die. Some still had enough strength to search for immortal treasures in the Myriad Dragon Nest."

"You can still laugh? Even if only one Holy Lord dies, it'll be a massive earthquake, stirring up an enormous storm," Wu Zhongtian said.

"There's nothing for it, the Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings has already perished, body and soul..." At this point, Ye Fan paused and asked, "Where's Nannan?"

"The old patriarch of the Yin-Yang Sect kept her. He wouldn't let us take her out of Jade Lake!" Liu Kou said, indignant but helpless.

"What?" Ye Fan was startled.

The old patriarch of the Yin-Yang Sect, whose lifespan was nearing its end, had once sought a method to extend his life in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. After witnessing the Peerless Imperial Lord of the Ancient Huaxia Dynasty turn to ash, he chose to retreat.

Ye Fan had slain the sect's Saint Son and Saintess, creating a massive karma with them. Now, hearing that little Nannan had been detained by them, he was naturally very anxious.

"Don't worry, they wouldn't dare act recklessly in Jade Lake. Nannan won't be in danger..."

Li Heishui and the others' grandfathers had learned the inside story and naturally didn't go to the Myriad Dragon Nest. They, along with many extraordinary individuals, remained at Jade Lake. With them there, Nannan wouldn't face great peril.

Half a day later, the shocking disaster at the Myriad Dragon Nest spread, astounding the world and shaking the entire Eastern Wilderness!

The Supreme Holy Lord of Myriad Beginnings perished, body and soul annihilated, leaving nothing behind. This news caused an uproar.

The Vice-Patriarch of the Yin-Yang Sect, a supreme grand sect in Central Plains, and a top-tier mighty figure who was soon to succeed the old patriarch, was reduced to ashes.

The younger brother of the Golden Family's Patriarch in the Northern Plains, a mighty figure with limitless potential, also remained silent in the Myriad Dragon Nest, never emerging.

The Holy Lord of Purple Mansion in the Eastern Wilderness was almost crippled; only his head was brought out, his body having been beaten into a pulp by ancient creatures.

Furthermore, six more magnates from the Five Elements Palace, True Demon Hall, Misty Peak, and others perished!

Moreover, a group of Supreme Elder-level figures died, and many great sects were impacted, with blood staining the Myriad Dragon Nest!

This earth-shattering news shocked the world. Everyone was speechless, their hearts trembling violently.

The world was in an uproar!

Everyone was astonished; no one could remain calm. It had been many years since such a disaster had occurred, with so many magnates dying all at once.

"What exactly happened? Do any of you know the details?"

"Why did so many magnates fall? I heard it's related to the Sacred Body Ye Fan, but I don't know if it's true!"

As this shocking news spread, shaking the world, people had yet to truly understand the inside story and were all inquiring about it.

"Little Ye, you're famous now! You're destined to make your name known across the world!"
