Chapter 1429 - 652: Youth and Old Man! (Part 2)

The law of the jungle, it’s that simple.

So even knowing his fate, he remained calm.

"What if you devour him?"

Chen Xuan’s words made the old man’s pupils contract suddenly, but then he slowly shook his head.

"No way!"

"Before he is fully grown, it’s impossible for those of the same race to devour each other, or they will be destroyed directly!"

This was the rule of his kind.

As for waiting for the new World Tree to grow, that was even more impossible.

His power dwindled daily, while the newborn World Tree grew stronger each day. With this shift, he was no match at all.

"It depends on whether you have the courage to take a risk."

Chen Xuan’s words sparked the old man’s survival instinct. He was a top-tier Spiritual Object; who wants to die if they can live?

"Why are you helping this old man?"

"I don’t know, it’s up to you."

....

A moment later!

Chen Xuan stood up, "There will only be one chance. It will be up to you then."

After speaking!

He left this Five-Colored Space.

In the pavilion, the old man sat quietly, unsure if it was true or not.

But the next moment, a cold glint flashed in his old eyes.

...

Inside the study of Prince Xuan’s Mansion.

Chen Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and at that moment, the astronomical phenomenon of the Supreme Domain also dissipated.

Central Continent, Emperor Venerate Pavilion.

A spectral figure appeared silently in front of the Emperor Venerable, without him sensing anything.

This was the Emperor Venerate Pavilion!

It was his original Spiritual Treasure.

And now, Chen Xuan managed to avoid his detection and appear, and it was just a thought.

"Is this what being a Saint is?"

As he said this, the Emperor Venerable was trembling all over.

Fear? Yes!

But more than that, it was excitement.

"It’s just the early stage of the Saint Realm, the weakest of them there is of this realm, and there are eight of them!"

Chen Xuan instantly saw through his thoughts.

"They can’t easily come down, the Heavenly Dao won’t allow it."

There were some things he knew.

"The Heavenly Dao is weakening, and eventually, it won’t be able to restrain them."

This was what the old World Tree had told him.

So he must ascend and collaborate with the old man; only in this way would there be hope.

"You plan to go up?" The Emperor Venerable instantly guessed his intentions.

"Yes!"

"In about half a year!"

...

After Chen Xuan left, the Emperor Venerable let out a long sigh.

Primordial Realm!

"I’m about to leave, you prepare, then I’ll send you to the Upper Domain."

"Half a year later, delay it as long as possible!"

Chen Xuan spoke softly, "And how to seize his Heavenly Dao?"

According to him, as long as he devoured the Heavenly Dao of the old World Tree, he could successfully devour the core of the entire World Tree.

"Kill the Eight Saints of the Upper Domain, and then I’ll be able to devour him."

"Are you joking!"

Chen Xuan’s face turned cold, the weakest of the Eight Saints was similar to him; how could he kill them!

"This is enough!"

In his hand appeared a leaf, "This is the Spirit Leaf for birthing the next generation of the World Tree, it can suppress them, you can defeat them one by one."

"Will he act?"

Of course, the ’he’ in Chen Xuan’s mouth referred to the old man.

"He doesn’t dare and can’t!"

The newborn World Tree spoke, "Destroying him is equivalent to ending this lineage, he would never do such a thing no matter what."

"Heh!"

Chen Xuan sneered and then left the place.

Great Chen Imperial Palace.

In Qixuan Hall.

"Half a year later, your father will go to the Upper Domain. Only you three know about this matter, and your father will take the Dao body with him. At that time, your father will announce a retreat."

"Don’t let it slip."

He actually wanted to leave the Dao body, but the Emperor Venerable told him that if he went to the Upper Domain, over time and with two domains apart, the Dao body would dissipate.

So Chen Xuan had no choice but to take it.

Upon hearing this, the three brothers looked at him with worried expressions.

"Father..."

Chen Yunze was about to speak, but Chen Xuan interrupted him, "This matter needs no more discussion. The Upper Domain is a place your father must go to and cannot avoid!"

The new World Tree was too weak, not just for the Supreme Domain, but even a single Primordial Realm couldn’t bear it.

Going there was an opportunity, not going was truly waiting for death.

"Everything here is entrusted to you three brothers."

After speaking!

He handed out three jade slips to the three of them, "These are for you three, containing my full-force strike."

"And... a Saint Realm Cultivation Technique."

After finishing!

Chen Xuan disappeared from the main hall.

In the main hall.

The three brothers looked at the jade slips in their hands, and at this moment, no one spoke up.

"Big Brother..."

Xiaoqi looked at Chen Yunze, opened his mouth to say something but ultimately didn’t.

"Let’s just leave it like this for now."

Although worried, Chen Yunze also didn’t know what to do now.

Half a year passed quickly.

"I need to go into seclusion for a period."

After having breakfast with the ladies as usual, Chen Xuan suddenly announced.

"Why are you going into seclusion again?"

Su Wanqiu looked at him dubiously, hadn’t he just finished not long ago?

"The realm is somewhat unstable."

"Ah—"

Su Yun’s face changed, "Then Brother Xuan, you should go quickly, this is no joke."

"How long will it be this time?"

Su Wanqiu asked.

"Three to five years, not too long." Chen Xuan gave a duration neither short nor long.

As for what happens afterward, that will be left to the three brothers.

Chen Xuan went to the study.

But this time, going to the Upper Domain, the final outcome was uncertain, and before leaving, at the door,

he couldn’t help but turn back to look.

Just in time to make eye contact with Su Wanqiu.

In an instant!

He felt a wave of intense emotion from Su Wanqiu, although outwardly, there was no change.

"Alas!"

Chen Xuan sighed inwardly, if there’s someone who truly understands his heart, it’s this former sister-in-law.
