Unfortunately, Dragon King's seclusion this time was a bit too long. It was no wonder that the four opposing forces were getting restless. If not for their apprehension of Dragon King's remaining might, they would have sent their armies to thoroughly eradicate Dragon God Celestial Palace. How could they have given Dragon God Celestial Palace even the slightest chance?
Therefore, Ye Chen's arrival was the best timing. If he came late, Dragon God Celestial Palace's strength would have been greatly damaged. Even if he was here, they wouldn't be able to contend against the four opposing forces. He wasn't arrogant enough to contend against a hundred, or even a thousand.
Eighteenth Elder Yu didn't say anything. As early as in the Ye family, he knew that Ye Chen had already made up his mind, and nobody could change his mind. Moreover, he firmly believed that Ye Chen's survivability was very strong. Growing from a small genius to his current height, it was impossible for him not to have a strong survivability.
What should be said had already been said. All the elders looked at the Great Elder, wanting to hear his opinion.
The Great Elder said, "I've already talked with the left and right protectors. They don't oppose Ye Chen's participation in the sect war. However, they emphasized that our Dragon God Celestial Palace must have disciples participate as well. This will not only temper them, but also represent fairness."
The Great Elder's meaning was clear. Ye Chen was not even a member of Dragon God Celestial Palace, yet he had come to help Dragon God Celestial Palace. As disciples of Dragon God Celestial Palace, they naturally had to participate as well. Otherwise, it wouldn't be appropriate.
"Is this how it should be?"
Hearing these words, the majority of the elders nodded.
The Great Elder looked at Ye Chen and asked, "Ye Chen, have you used the drop of will left by sect leader in your Sea of Soul?"
He hoped that Ye Chen wouldn't use it. Only when Life and Death Kings' will reached the sixth step would they be able to leave a drop of will in someone else's Sea of Soul. It should be known that this drop of will was not just pure will, but also contained a wisp of natal Zhen Yuan. Only the natal Zhen Yuan of a Life and Death King could display this drop of will without restraint, which was equivalent to a full-strength defense of a half-step King. However, due to the limit of natal Zhen Yuan, Life and Death Kings with sixth step will couldn't use it limitlessly. Every time they used it, they would lose a portion of their cultivation base.
"This has already been used."
When Ye Chen first came to the Sky Martial Region, he entered an underground crack in order to find the Rootless Flower and the Shadowless Grass. Who knew that the Shadowless Demon in there would be so powerful. If not for the Dragon King's will protecting him, he would have lost his life in there. After that, the Dragon King's will was exhausted. At the critical moment, the Destruction Sword Soul was finally formed, and he successfully escaped from the underground crack.
Until now, Ye Chen still had the lingering fear. Being possessed by the Shadowless Demon was definitely a very scary thing. Even someone as strong-willed as him could feel his hair standing on end.
"I used it! What a pity. "
The Great Elder shook his head. Soon after, he felt even more admiration for Ye Chen. Dragon God Celestial Palace also had a few disciples who had obtained a drop of Sect Master's will. However, none of them had used it. Although everyone's fortunes were different and the dangers they encountered were also different, in any case, Ye Chen had said that he had walked out of danger after danger, and it was indeed true.
"You have the heart to fight for my Dragon God Celestial Palace. As the Great Elder of Elders Association, I am extremely grateful. Before this, we had already discussed giving you the position of Azure Dragon Hall's Deputy. Do you have any objections? If you do, we can discuss further."
"Azure Dragon Hall's Deputy?"
Ye Chen knew that Azure Dragon Hall was the head of the five great halls. Although the position of Deputy couldn't compare to that of the other four hall masters, his position was definitely above them, and the strength required was also much higher. He originally thought that giving him the position of Head Attendant at most would be good enough. After all, he had just arrived at Dragon God Celestial Palace and didn't have much prestige. It would be hard to avoid dissatisfaction. Who knew that the result would be even better than he had imagined.
His biggest problem in coming to Dragon God Celestial Palace was that he had to listen to other people's orders. This was something he didn't like. Now, all the problems were gone. Deputy Hall Masters had the authority to command the troops of one side, and would only be managed by the Hall Master.
"That's enough."
A faint smile appeared on Ye Chen's face.
"Alright." The Great Elder faintly nodded, "Azure Dragon Hall's Deputy Command Token can only be obtained after you take up the post. At that time, Elder Yu will take you there as before. Apart from this, this Dragon God Token is also for you. With this token, you will be the Dragon God Envoy of my Dragon God Celestial Palace. Although your authority isn't as great as Azure Dragon Hall Master's, your position will be higher. If necessary, you can disobey orders and act on your own."
As he spoke, the Great Elder took out a five-colored command token and handed it over to Ye Chen. Five huge dragons were engraved on it, and their colors were cyan, black, red, white, and yellow.
Ye Chen received the Dragon God Token and was rather astonished. As far as he knew, the five Hall Masters had Azure Dragon Command Tokens, Black Dragon Command Token, Red Dragon Command Token, White Dragon Command Token, and Yellow Dragon Command Token. Although Long Biyi wasn't the Azure Dragon Hall's Deputy Hall Master, she also had a Small Azure Dragon Command Token. Since she was the direct descendant of Dragon King, her Small Azure Dragon Command Token was slightly different from others. The Dragon God Token was a command token above the Azure Dragon Command Token, and was extremely transcendental. He didn't know how many people had a Dragon God Token, but it certainly wouldn't be more than a handful, perhaps even less.
The Great Elder continued, "This Dragon God Token has been distributed in total. One is for Goddess Xu Jing, and the other is for you. Use it well. Additionally, with the Dragon God Token, you won't have any misgivings in the Dragon God Celestial Palace. You can basically go anywhere, including the forbidden areas."
Hiss!
The elders present didn't expect that Ye Chen could obtain a Dragon God Token. Of course, they didn't think that it was the Great Elder's idea or the Left and Right Protectors' idea. It must have been the Sect Leader's order. Otherwise, the Dragon God Token wouldn't have been distributed to the Great Elder and the Left and Right Protectors.
"Ye Chen, with the Dragon God Token, your position is equal to our entire Elder Association." Elder Yu's face revealed a trace of envy.
Ye Chen put away the Dragon God Token and said earnestly, "Many thanks to Senior Dragon King and everyone's great kindness. Ye Chen will certainly use the Dragon God Token well."
Status was given by others, so he wouldn't act recklessly.
"Alright, this meeting is over. Dragon God Envoy, you should rest in the Dragon God Celestial Palace for a while. Someone will inform you when you are ready to take up your post in the Azure Dragon Hall."
The Azure Dragon Hall had lost a large number of troops and needed to adjust for the time being. There wouldn't be any battles.
"Alright."
Ye Chen faintly nodded.
"Elder Yu, bring the Dragon God Envoy to a place to rest. I think it should be in the core region's Redcloud Residence."
…
The Redcloud Residence was a top-notch residence in the Dragon God Celestial Palace. The entire residence was covered in big and small arrays. Apart from defense and offense, these arrays could also gather the Yuan Qi of the heaven and earth. Cultivating inside would yield twice the result with half the effort.
Elder Yu brought Ye Chen to the Redcloud Residence and left after drinking a cup of wine with Ye Chen. Before leaving, he assigned some attendants to wait for Ye Chen's orders.
"Dragon God Envoy, if you have any orders, don't hesitate to order us."
These attendants were all very young. Their cultivation bases were all at the Clasping Yuan Realm, and they all looked to be under thirty years old. Of course, this was just their appearance. Be it ordinary sects or fifth grade sects, attendants' positions were all below elders. A portion of them were disciples who didn't have enough talent. Therefore, although they looked to be under thirty years old, they might very well be in their forties or fifties.
"I'm fine now. You can withdraw first!"
Ye Chen said.
"Yes!"
All attendants walked out of the Redcloud Residence and stood guard outside.
After they left, Ye Chen looked around and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Not to mention the Redcloud Residence's luxury and comfort, it occupied several hundred hectares of land. Moreover, on both sides of the road, there was a mid-grade tree every few dozen steps. Some mid-grade trees bore some fruits, and they were all mid-grade fruits.
Plucking a fruit, Ye Chen lightly took a bite.
"Mid-Grade fruits are indeed mid-grade fruits. The taste is ample, and the energy it contains is also extremely pure. Eating it every day, year after year, can save a lot of hard work. Moreover, one's constitution will also be much better than ordinary people's."
Outside, no one would be so extravagant as to eat mid-grade fruits like ordinary fruits. Even ordinary fifth grade sects couldn't do so. Even in the Dragon God Celestial Palace, perhaps only this kind of top-notch residence would have such treatment. If it were anyone else, it would be similarly extravagant, and they would only be able to eat it occasionally.
In a situation where there were too many monks and not enough meat, it could only satisfy a small portion of people.
In a courtyard not far away, there was also a hot spring. Above the hot spring, pure energy transformed into mist. Taking a breath would make one's body feel much more comfortable. As for the entire sky above the Redcloud Residence, it seemed to be shrouded in a layer of special arrays, causing clouds to appear everywhere.
Soaking in the hot spring, Ye Chen closed his eyes and lay down on the rock behind him.
…
After a few days, Ye Chen walked out of the Redcloud Residence.
"The island where the Dragon God Celestial Palace is located is not that much smaller than South Rudra Region. I'll familiarize myself with the terrain first." Big also had its disadvantages. If one wanted to get to a certain place, it would be rather troublesome. For example, the Redcloud Residence where Ye Chen was staying, had no one within several hundred li. There were only a few attendants' palaces and residences.
Summoning a beautiful young woman named Yan Zi, Ye Chen made her his temporary tour guide.
"Dragon God Envoy, this is the largest training ground of my Dragon God Celestial Palace. Demonic beasts are everywhere, ranging from first grade to sixth grade. The surroundings are shrouded in a huge array, and demonic beasts can't come out. Only after reaching seventh grade can they leave the training ground."
Yan Zi was as beautiful as a flower. Being able to act as a tour guide for Dragon God Envoy made her extremely happy. As attendants, their treatment was not as high as that of inner disciples. Therefore, some resources couldn't go to them, and they could only exchange for some resources with contribution points. However, attendants had their own benefits. They could often receive rewards from people with high positions. In her opinion, serving Ye Chen would definitely be rewarded.
Leaving the training ground, the two boarded the palace's exclusive flying artifact, Celestial Palace Flying Ship, and arrived in front of a huge lake. The lake's water was not transparent, but a kind of crystal color. Above the lake, rainbows could be seen everywhere. The sky was blue without a speck of dust. Even describing it as a paradise of the mortal world wouldn't be enough to describe its beauty.
When the two arrived, they happened to see a beautiful woman in palace attire collecting the rainbow essence in a bottle. She looked like a fairy from the heavenly palace.
This woman was none other than Dragon God Celestial Palace's fifth disciple, Chen Yuxin.
Chen Yuxin also saw Ye Chen. Putting down what she was doing, her figure flickered, and she flew over.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Ye."
In fact, Chen Yuxin was one year older than Ye Chen, and also looked older than Ye Chen. However, in terms of strength, calling Ye Chen senior brother wouldn't be an insult to her.
Ye Chen smiled, "Didn't expect to meet Junior Sister Chen here."
"Hehe!" Chen Yuxin chuckled and took out a special box from her storage ring, handing it over to Yan Zi, "There are three Five-Colored Thunderbolt Bombs here. You can leave first! I'll show Senior Brother Ye around. "
"Yes!"
Yan Zi's face couldn't help but flash with joy. The Five-Colored Thunderbolt Bombs refined by Chen Yuxin were famous enough to kill a powerful Astral Reaching expert. Although they weren't as powerful as the Seven-Colored Thunderbolt Bomb, they were more than enough for her.
