Chapter 1129 - 1128: Lao Chi’s Purpose, Reunion with Miss Qing

Chapter 1129: Chapter 1128: Lao Chi’s Purpose, Reunion with Miss Qing

Ye Chen proposed the idea of moving the lighthouse.

Everyone around widened their eyes at him.

Ye Chen: "What’s wrong? Is it not possible?"

An Emperor Realm cultivator from the Seventy-Two Islands spoke: "The structure of the lighthouse is very complex, and the energy provided by the fragments of the Celestial Core is the most critical thing for the lighthouse, but the Celestial Core’s energy is not everything, it’s just a part of the lighthouse.

This involves countless complex arrays.

If you want to move the lighthouse, then you have to move those arrays along with it.

While moving the arrays is somewhat difficult for us, we can still barely manage it.

However, during the movement of the arrays, fluctuations will occur in the extraction of energy from the Celestial Core fragments, and if the energy extraction is interrupted, that’s a minor issue. The real fear is the detonation of the Celestial Core fragments...

Young master, you’ve experienced the power of a Celestial Core fragment detonation.

If the Celestial Core fragment detonates... among all of us, few would survive..."

Chi Mutian added, "Moving the lighthouse is an idea that was actually proposed in the Celestial Burial Sea tens of thousands of years ago, and attempts were made, but it failed thoroughly. Since then, no one has ever mentioned it again."

Ye Chen frowned slightly.

Moving the lighthouse is clearly an excellent means to combat the forbidden zone’s black tide.

However.

Since the attempt failed tens of thousands of years ago, no one dared to try again.

It must be said.

Though the cultivators of the Celestial Burial Sea are strong, they lack the spirit of research.

If someone could put in hard work like Grandmaster Mu Yi from the Asura Army and Lin Wen, how could there be no progress after such a long time?

Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "So, the biggest fear in moving the lighthouse is the explosion of the Celestial Core fragments, right? If I can solve this problem, then you can move the arrays that maintain the lighthouse’s operation? Is that what you mean?"

"Young master, can you control the energy of the Celestial Core fragments?"

Ye Chen: "I’ll give it a try."

The Celestial Stele Breathing Technique, opening the divine manifestation in the apertures, can collect the Celestial Core.

Ye Chen can use the Celestial Stele Breathing Technique to refine the godroot energy of the Divine Race of the Holy Realm and Emperor Realm Divine Race but has been unable to handle the Celestial Core.

But now the matter is right in front of him.

Think of more ways, give it a try.

Though attempts may still fail, at least there’s a possibility of success.

If you don’t even dare to try, you’re destined to fail!

Seeing no one spoke, Ye Chen said, "You go prepare for the movement of the arrays, and I’ll try to control the energy of the Celestial Core. We’ll work on both fronts, and once everything is settled, we’ll relocate the lighthouse immediately."

Everyone left the hall.

Chi Mutian’s finger, however, hovered in front of Ye Chen.

"Lao Chi, do you have something to say?" Ye Chen asked.

Chi Mutian: "Did you go to the Void Divine Realm?"

Ye Chen: "...How did you know?"

Chi Mutian: "You have donned a set of battle armor, which is definitely divine-level, and it carries the aura of the Divine Race. If I couldn’t see this, I would not be worthy of being called a madman of my era, Chi Mutian."

Ye Chen: "But... Lao Chi, how did you discern this? You only have a finger, no eyes."

Chi Mutian: "...You!"

Ye Chen smiled, "Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. I did indeed make a trip to the Void Divine Realm."

Chi Mutian: "I won’t ask about the Void Divine Realm, but there’s another matter, and I hope you’ll tell me honestly."

Ye Chen: "Lao Chi, we’re like brothers, go ahead."

Chi Mutian: "Did you provoke the Divine Appraiser’s taboo?"

Ye Chen: "How do you know this?"

Chi Mutian: "After the explosion of Celestial Core fragments in the lighthouse of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect, I found a strand of red hair, stained with an evil aura."

Ye Chen nodded, "Indeed, a red-haired monster showed up then; otherwise, the explosion of the Celestial Core fragment wouldn’t have really harmed me. Lao Chi, do you know anything about this creature?"

Chi Mutian’s finger tapped, just like nodding, "Perhaps, I can find the hiding place of this red-haired monster."

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed, "Lao Chi, we’re family, no need for two sets of words, when the time comes, let’s kill the red-haired monster together!"

Chi Mutian: "No problem, once I restore my body and return to the Celestial Burial Sea, I’ll take you to find the red-haired monster, but before that, you need to come with me to another place!"

Ye Chen: "Where to?"

Chi Mutian: "Black tide origins!"

Ye Chen: "...It’s not that I’m afraid of dying, but I don’t want to go there to die, Lao Chi, do you understand what I mean?"

What are you doing?

Even the Hentian Emperor couldn’t win.

And you’re going to the black tide origins?

The presence within the black tide origins must be terrifying!

Ye Chen even suspects there’s someone like a Celestial God hidden in there.

What is a Celestial God?

In the Void Divine Realm, a Celestial God is much like a big shot!

Not someone to provoke!

Going out into the world, you’ve got to be bold and prudent, and you should know when to back down!

Chi Mutian: "Don’t you have an Evil Spirit Celestial Bead? When the time comes, you can use the Evil Spirit Celestial Bead to conceal your own aura. As long as we’re careful enough, there’s a high chance we won’t be discovered by the presence in the black tide origins."

Ye Chen stared at Chi Mutian’s finger, "Lao Chi, I’ll use the Evil Spirit Celestial Bead, but what will you use to conceal your aura? That ring in your hand? What’s the secret of that ring? What exactly are you seeking at the black tide origins?

A hundred years ago, when you were at your peak, you ventured alone into the forbidden zone, heading for the black tide origins. Was it really arrogance and ignorance? Or did you have hidden motives back then?"

Chi Mutian: "Don’t you trust me?"

Ye Chen: "I do, we share a bond over life and death."

Chi Mutian: "Then will you go?"

Ye Chen: "No."

Chi Mutian: "...Do you still want to find the red-haired monster and kill it?"

Ye Chen: "It’s whatever, anyway, the red-haired monster can’t do anything to me. If it could really threaten me, I’d be dead already. Am I right?"

The reason for not agreeing.

Danger is one factor.

The main reason is Chi Mutian is not forthright.

Asking me to risk my life without saying anything about it... agreeing would mean I’m out of my mind.

Chi Mutian: "Why not reconsider?"

Ye Chen: "Alright, I’ll take care of my business first, and then I’ll think about it."

Moments later.

Ye Chen entered a secret chamber, then with a thought, appeared inside the Sword Tomb.

Master Legs, Little Phoenix, and Luo Qingyi immediately gathered around him.

"Kid, recently, your connection with the Sword Tomb completely vanished; what exactly happened?" Master Legs asked.

Little Phoenix seldom flew onto Ye Chen’s shoulder, "Big brother, we almost thought you were dead..."

Ye Chen: "Something unexpected happened; I took a turn in the Void Divine Realm."

Saying that, his gaze shifted to Luo Qingyi.

Luo Qingyi: "As long as you’re not dead."

With this sentence, Luo Qingyi turned and walked away.

Little Phoenix crouched by Ye Chen’s ear and whispered, "Sister Qingyi thought you got into trouble and was very sad..."

Ye Chen immediately grabbed Little Phoenix off his shoulder, "Master Legs, Zizi, I need to talk to Miss Qing."

With a word of caution, Ye Chen quickly chased after Luo Qingyi.

Regarding Luo Jiutian’s matter.

No matter what, he had to tell Miss Qing.
